  • We finish up the last little bits to the truck and send er down the road, we mounted the seat, fixed the transmission, put shocks on the truck and swapped out all the glass. Gave her a little garage burnout to test the trans out and everything looks good.

    Looking good. You do in hours what others take weeks or months to do. Great to watch a master mechanic do his magic.

      Hes more a master builder he can also do body work and paint and interior work not top quality but plenty decent for what he has to work with its like building car models you build so many after a while you have a big box of parts left over from previous models to change out wheels lights interiors engines love building models have the only 73 cuda Johan kit that has a vynal roof and centerlines autodrags in satin finish no model maker ever came out with centerlines on any models and it has a 440 w/727 slap stick the only one in existence the model was a snap together every mopar guy has had the model yellow I cut the hood out put a challenger engine compartment the engines wired! Its tihitian green a rare honda color looks dark green in the sunlightg it looks candy apple blue i hand polished the paint three coats with a piece of towel and crest toothpaste and sprayed on thtee coats olf clear rubbing out every layer with crest toothpaste then pilushed it with pledge for wood i ade the vynal roof with wide masking tape still on there after over 20 years now

    You sold me you've got a new subscriber....Dad and I built and/or restored classics for 35 yrs together ( lost dad to cancer ..miss you dearly dad ...I'd still be doing it but a flight of stairs and a water heater took my back out ) but she's a really nice looking truck... very cool
    I know a lot will disagree ..but that baby needs a nice paint job ...

    A tip I learnt years ago to soak up oil spills. go to your hardware store and buy a bag of cement ( the pure cement powder, not concrete mix) then sprinkle it over the spill and leave for a day or so. most times you'll find it will soak it up completely and leave little to no staining if you do it straightaway.

You really made it a nice driver with patina but lots cruiser stuff, so funny when you stopped at the camera and set it on the floor. Wow! I am seriously catching up on your old videos, great projects, Thank You, Dennis
