I wear glasses anytime I use a grinder, cutoff wheel, wire wheel etc. I've had cut off wheels and grinder wheels break on me. And wire wheel with throw the wires at you.
Your honest and best bet since you have the lift is take the cab and bed off the frame, send the frame off for sandblasting and box the frame and powder coat it.. but, you can diy alot of that too. Have fun and restore the truck.at least Laura is onboard unlike 99.99% of our wives... LoL 😂🤣 😂
Fun fact: s.o.s pads take rust off anything. I used them to take rust off my rims on my 73 Ford back in high school. I'm telling ya those rims were completely rusted out, took me about an hour per wheel, but by the time I was done they looked brand new. Hope you guys had a merry Christmas, and happy new year to yall. 💪🤜🤛
Far be it from me to tell you how to do your resto. If I were you(and I am not), but if I was, I would pull the entire body off that truck down to a rolling frame,pull the engine/drive train out..and THEN sand blast that frame clean/repaint,redo all the lines with fresh while the body is off(wire loom AN fitted fuel,brake lines),blast off the back axle,replace the springs and all the mounts for cab and bed and engine. Do everything that frame needs to be 100% including replacing pieces unseen that are to far gone with rust to be worthwhile to use and THEN work on that body OFF the frame so you can get to all sides to remove rust and repair whats needed to make it structurally sound to put your family inside of it. It will be more labor intensive and take a longer but the final product journey will get you a ton of new subs watching you screw up repeatedly like we all do on our first resto and it will pay off in the end with a better built,better looking more stable end result with more content along the way....but I'm not you so do w/e you want.Your truck,your way.Have fun.(you might even pick up some product sponsorship along the way.
Hello JD and family. I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas.🎅 Y'all are so fun to watch. Poor Laura can't go anywhere without the camera man stalking her. "I'm just vloggin'", he says.👍😂 Glad you finally figured out the PO Box situation. Did you see #teamlaura light up when she saw Topwater Tony's name? Haha, that was great.😃 Those books for the kids were so cool, man. I'm sure the boys will love those. Sending all those k-cups was nice, too. You have the best fans and all the gifts are well-deserved, bud. We appreciate all you do. I'm not going to ask why that wheel is off, but I can't wait to see you guys transform that C10. Oh yeah, Liam's "bye bye" at the end of the video was the sweetest thing ever.😊 Wishing you and your beautiful family all the very best in 2020, JD.✌ Take care, brother.
TheMick26 we do have an awesome fan base for sure. Christmas was awesome the kids had a blast and got lots of cool toys and I posted one of my favorite gifts on IG. Laura likes the camera...I think!
I would have put the truck out side and sand blasted it with my Harbor freight sand blaster, then blown it off with air then wiped it down with wax & grease remover then put your stuff on it. I did my 70 Ford Sport Custom short bed and it worked very well, and you get in to all the tight place's easy. This will take it down to bare metal though. Kurt
Your best off with a full face mask, with grinding/cutting metal, hot metal sparks fly fast and bounce/ricochet and can get in behind safety glasses. Just wear them both then you double protected. I had a guy painting gas pipe on one of my jobs, and he did good but he also painted the brass ball valve. I told him well you don't have to paint the brass, it wont rust. He replied I look at it this way, it's like birth control while wearing a condom....I just walked away shaking my head.
Why wouldn’t she like you filming her walk away she gorgeous and what a beautiful family you have I too am doing rust repair on a 99 Jeep Cherokee two door kinda a rare bird so worth the little rust it has Merry Christmas From NW Indiana
The biggest no no, using a wire wheel without eye and face protection. Those wire bristles will stick in you, even through your clothes. Your probably better off taking it to a shop to get sand blasted. Enjoyed the family mail time! Goodluck with the project!
Since you're going to put a small block in it and new body mounts it would be way easier to just pull the bed and cab off of the frame your job go so much smoother and the the end results would be worth it
Awesome video! Love it that your always involving the family! You should use the lift to take the cab off the frame and take the bed off so it's easier to work on the frame. I know it sounds like more work, but its worth it! Looking forward to the next video! P.S The video of Laura walking away was a 10 #teamlaura.
@@JD_JoyrideTV please know that I'm not trying to be a know it all! I love watching your videos! The last thing I want to do is make you mad! Like I said before, I wish I lived closer so I could hang out with you guys! Have a Happy New Year!!!! When I get my new toy, I'll have my wife and them to you on Facebook!
@@JD_JoyrideTV May 16 and 17 it's an amazing weekend there are several different car shows and all the waterparks plus 1000's of cars of every make definently something for everyone
May as well pull the cab and the bed off and do this right. It isn't that difficult with a lift. Then do your engine and trans swap into the chassis and set the body back down on it with new bushings. Go through the chassis and rebuild the suspension and everything too.
Tom should really have that lipoma or sist looked at or removed, it’s not a bad procedure and would be much more better for his life, I’ve been watching dr pimple popper if u can’t tell lol, but with all seriousness love the vids up and Tom should collab and do ur own lil shop videos
Why don't you just take the whole body off the frame so you can get the frame degreased and cleaned real good then sand it then go with the product or even 415 it which is a rust inhibitor. O can't remember off hand if you can paint right over it or not.
ok kid, i can blow off the ignored check engine light, but using a wire wheel without safety glasses??, that is just ignorant, i have had to take several guys into the ER to have wires removed, one of them suffered permanent damage to his cornea, please use glasses.
I dont trust rust converts that's just my opinion no body has ever proved it with a x-ray or some highly intelligent test. I choose to mechanically remove it and then use a rust converter follow by either paint or filler
I love you guys to death, so please take what I'm going to say as loving guidance from someone who has worked on and been around cars my entire life. And that's quite a few years. It's driving me crazy and breaking my heart to see the way you're going about doing this truck. I know from what you have said that you want the patina look to the paint on this and you had mentioned that you really wanted to do a nice resto-mod job to the drivetrain and suspension. So having said that, you ended up getting a vintage small block instead of the Late Model LS motor you really wanted. It seems you want to do this this job way too fast. By doing that you will eventually spend more money, make more mistakes, and do many of the same things twice or even three times over because of no real planning. Here is my advise as to what you should have done. I would have started on paper and wrote down all the specs of what you want and your budget if you want one. And I mean engine, drivetrain, brakes, body, interior, wheels, etc... The nice part of doing it slowly this way is you can do it in stages over time and save the money you need for each stage. You should have started the physical work by stripping the truck down to a bare rolling chassis. Every single, part, nut and bolt, screw etc, removed, bagged and tagged unless you're not going to reuse it in the rebuild. Then start by doing a mock up of your engine and drivetrain front to rear and if there is any cutting or welding to be done do it now including any modifications needed for the type of suspension you want. When that is done strip the chassis down bare and have the chassis media blasted and powder coated. You can also have any other bolt on chassis parts like suspension, and/or rear differential powder coated at this time too. I forgot to mention that after blasting and powder coating the rear, you should have the ring, pinion, posi, and axles for the differential assembled and in the housing.. When that is complete you can assemble the new suspension, steering components, rear differential and brake system to the chassis. You will now have a completed rolling and steering chassis. At this time you can start start building your motor and assembling your transmission and driveshaft. You will need to assess what body parts will be used over and/or repaired and what will need to be replaced. Then go out and look for the parts you need and try to find them in better condition than what you are replacing. I already see parts of the bed are totally rotted so you may want to source another one. You also have holes in the doors and from what I can see the left front fender. The hood looks fantastic especially for the look you want. I know you want a patina look but you also don't want rotted body parts with holes. Surface rust is OK and can be addressed when you do tie the parts together with a blended patina paint job where needed. I'll send you a link to a channel where these guys do nothing but this type of finish and they produce some of the best I've ever seen. The truck will ride, drive and perform like a modern vehicle, and on the outside look like a well used vintage survivor from Arizona. This kind of job will take you quite a while. Especially for someone like you that doesn't own a shop and will need assistance from outside retail shops to complete some of the work. But when completed you will have it all documented and you will have a vehicle that can eventually be handed down to you Son as an heirloom. It's actually not too late to do this even with what you have already done. Of course in the end the choice is yours. I want to say again that all this advise comes to you from my heart and as fatherly advice. Trust me, I'm old enough. If I lived near you I would even volunteer what ever time and help I could give you. No matter what way you go, I will be following you in your adventure lending advice along the way. You have a beautiful family and I absolutely love the interaction between you and your son and how you are instilling in him the love of classic vehicles and their maintenance. I also love they way you also incorporate your wife in the repair process. From the look in her eyes I think she really appreciates your patience while teaching her. You're a good man, and your channel is unique in its own way because of you. God Bless...
Sorry havent been on in awhile been busy with work. Hope you all enjoyed the coffee. Hope you all had a great christmas.
About 4 to 5 years ago I saw you guys at a truck stop I never forget a face
Put some safety glasses on. Eye injuries are no joke man. Had rust in my eye once and it was the worst experience of my life. Loving the c10 project.
Viracocha Coupe86 your right. I have some but always forget to put them on.
I wear glasses anytime I use a grinder, cutoff wheel, wire wheel etc. I've had cut off wheels and grinder wheels break on me. And wire wheel with throw the wires at you.
@@JD_JoyrideTV if you lost your eyesight in one eye, or went through a corneal abrasion or metal in the eye you would never forget again.
That whole key thing? Yep JD is a true blonde :D
I can’t wait to find a slight project truck. Glad you’re sharing the project with us.
Who farted on my license plate? LOL
Topwater Tony that was little man. Not me 😂
@@b61mackman2 don't lie
b61mackman2 stop blaming little man.
Tom has a foot growing out of his head lol
Awesome ! Hope the boy's like Molly the Muscle car. Hope you had great Christmas .
Great video. But I agree safety glasses at a minimum. Safety glasses and a face shield would be better. Trust me. Almost lost my left eye to a injury
I'm glad yall rescued that truck And are fixing in up.
That's a beautiful Truck.
Edit: Merry Christmas.
Not gonna lie I was super stoked when I seen someone sent in a New Brunswick plate from Canada! I’m also from New Brunswick Canada!! Super cool
It is always wise to follow the instructions...Shes right...

I would lift the Bed & Cab off the frame. Then do the frame.
Why didn't you remove the cab and bed to paint the whole frame.
Yeah why did you take off the tire
Should always wear gloves when using chemicals.
I wish I lived next to you we'd take off the truck body and sand blast the frame and powder coat it .🤔
Big sexy I’d love to do that.

It needs a filler to hide the rust pits in the frame.
Mark Hunter the tractor paint is really thick so I’m hoping that will fill it.
