    The engineering you guys do is amazing. Finished products always come out amazing. Hope one day to be in a position to have one of your chassis under one of my builds.

    I’m in my 50’s. Owned/built a few magazine rigs in my time. I’m pretty sure this is the first time I’ve used the word perfect to describe a build. But it really is.
    We’re so fortunate in this life to get to the point where we look to our kids for affirmation. 🤙

    I can't thank you enough for what you do. these trucks and they way you do your videos brings me such nostalgic joy it almost brings me to tears. it reminds me of my youth, my dad, my granpa. it reminds me of a time I hope I never forget. God bless you, your son, and the entire RoadsterShop crew and from deep down in my heart, thank you.

    Oh the dream . . . I learned to drive a stick in an early 80s Chevy K30 crew cab long bed. I’ve wanted one my whole adult life. What a dream truck this is. I’m definitely not a “make every thing modern kinda guy, nor am I the type that every little thing needs to be original. I love a well balanced mix. Those front seats are killer in my humble opinion. Taking the head rest off was the key to honoring the older seat types. Great job.

    Love the truck as a whole! The interior is awesome! Always thought I would have a nice old or nice old new truck again. But have been fighting stage 4 metastasized melanoma cancer for a couple of years now. I haven't worked in a year and a half, so that dream is gone now due to financial issues. But that doesn't stop me from watching these videos and dream. Again, beautiful rig, love it!

    The interior of this truck looks really good. The seats almost look like my dad’s 1970 chevelle seats if he put them in his 70’s step side truck. Also, I like all the upgrades, such as the parking sensors and the backup camera, especially when backing up to a trailer.

  • @YARCHLRL
    @YARCHLRL 29 днів тому +2

    The trick with cars sounds unbelievably simple. Just combine modern with soul. Easy right? Absolutely wrong, so wrong in fact that the few people capable of doing so are rarer than flying dragons and wizards. Modern stuff has bells, whistles and amenities but, I never look back at my newer Ford when I get out it. Now, my 99 Ram 3500 Cummins dually is completely the opposite. I absolutely love that truck because of the way it lives and breaths. Every time I shift another gear, I just smile. It's bone stock, including the tape deck lol, except for the air filter and a muffler delete and it makes me fall in love again every time I drive it. 230k + miles of happiness. My Ford is great so far but, to me, it's just transportation, nothing more. No soul and although it has never given me issues, I simply cannot say I love to drive it.
    The engineering in this truck was from the outset to make it better and that shows. No flash, no bang, just honest, hard working, true to history designing to make sure in the end, you enjoy every single mile and when you aren't driving it, you are standing at the window staring at it. That is what soul does. Congratulations, you're a wizard. Big praise to your team.

    Really cool truck. I daydream to do that with a 77 Ford Crew cab long bed on a F-350 4wd chassis with a 7.3 diesel. Body would look factory with steel wheels and dog dish hubcaps. The interior seating and console would be King Ranch components. Digital dash and aftermarket stereo. Back up cameras. Power windows. All the bells and whistles.

    This is an awesome build. I've been subscribed and have been watching the videos of your builds for a while now and you guys never disappoint. On your comment about the 6ft or 8ft bed: I personally think that 6ft beds look best on crew cabs and 8ft beds for lifted single cabs. IMO 'Big Iron' is a 10/10.

    Love the video until I realized it was you. I was like dammit it’s not an old CLASSIC truck. It’s this guy that puts the old CLASSIC truck on top of the new CLASSIC GM super body that I can’t afford so turn around because it sounds negative so far hats off, sir. You did an excellent job on this truck. I really love the interior. I love that you left the dash original my truck that I had was a 78 3+3 with a 8 foot bed K 30 and I had it for a number of years. Had to get rid of it due to my wife needing cancer treatment and I couldn’t afford that and insurance on a truck. I was just sitting in front of the house that she could no longer driveso it’s nice to see an old one on the road again just very cool stuff you do I just said not in a tax bracket to afford that stuff. I drive the old stuff or buy the brand new stuff anyway great job love it.
