    I'm reverse watching this build and I have to say I'm lovin what you are doing with this ole 35 . I so wish that you and I were buds because I would love to lay hands on this very sexy little rig . My specialty (if I actually have a specialty) is mostly cosmetic aspects of rigging rigs . I'm now 60 years OLD and lost the majority of my body tools, welders, spray guns, and even the best compressor I have ever owned to a total loss uninsured home fire due to a laps in insurance. The fire also claimed the lives of eleven very restorable and or already restored vehicles that I had acquired over years of collecting. Then to top things off a dope addicted neighbor we will call Robby M over a short period of time was helping himself to everything not permanently mounted in order of supporting his habbits . Regrettably Ole Robby M and 2 of his running buddies left this world when Robby drove the 3 of them into a huge pine tree killing himself and 2 friends that I know nothing about except that they kept lousy ass company before I was able to give him the ass whooping he so deserved by me . I'd never wish anyone dead over stuff and maybe even burning my home as scrapping metal is one way he kept money in his pocket. Before his death there were lots of arson fires of structures that had metal roofs and held farm equipment all of which stopped happening after his death .
    Anyhoo, I wish UA-cam channels had came in years sooner as I do believe there was a time that I could have kept a very entertaining channel up and going strong or so I believe. I know the Good Lord does have a plan for me and maybe UA-cam is exactly what it is . I was forced on to Retirement Disability after a very serious work related accident No Fault of My Own that could have been curtains for me and I am absolutely certain that a small frame man or a woman would not have survived the extreme blow that I received working in the Springfield Tennessee Plant where I made my living as a Tool and Die Maker Machinist. Several parts of my anatomy are seriously affected by the accident. I may or may not have made a good decision in buying repairing 9th Gen Ford Trucks as I don't have a shop or even a concrete surface to work on as well as no walls nor roof over my head. I also have a huge love for bikes and have several Harleys and one pretty sweet old 750 four k Honda Chopper . Maybe if I invest in a nice big shed with an awning with a slab I might could make a go with the bikes, or maybe even set up a hell of a woodshop maybe making killer wooden interiors for Rat Rods as my interest in those is growing fast . I could probably use some opinions from a professional UA-cam feller like yerself. I do imagine with my being disabled I would be very limited. I'd very much like to meet you and yer family some time . I have a nice who her and her husband own a Fitness Center there in your neck of the woods . I live around 80 miles due north of you and yours
    ... The Fitness Center is called Relentles I believe.

    Derek, brother, I love your channel partly because I learn something from each one, but also I so enjoy the way you so easily weave your family into the video. Cherish those moments! My son is grown, married, and has a son on the way. I have so many memories of working on projects with my son. Not only do we get to cherish those moments, they do too! Your son will follow in your footprints and brother, you’re doing a fine job! I don’t normally comment on videos but when I saw you hug your son…….it touched my heart!

    Derek,
    Thanks for all the great content! And, for introducing us to Little Grip! This truck project looks like you have your mitts full. As rough and cobbled together this beast was, I feel like this HAS to be named Fred Sanford!!
    Good luck on this one. Just keep moving forward. This David appreciated that Dave chipping in on this. Keep the content coming, brother!

    Derek, a few things i learned from rigging heavy textile machinery that may help you for future lifts with the forklift, the forks can be removed and reinstalled upside down on the rails. if you also remove the pallet load backrest, it allows the forklift to start its lift from a lower point on the mast. This gives better control for the engine lift, also the mast goes up a shorter distance and your ceiling fans are safe. lastly, if you drill a 3/4 or 1" ~12" in from the tip centered on the fork you can use it for a lifting hook to more safely attach chain. Alternately, when the forks and backrest are reinstalled correctly after your engine pick is complete, the hole in the fork can be used to install a ball hitch to move cars or trailers.

      bro. You know this man works seven days a week right? He resurrects old cars get some running again and back on the road. He also has plenty of acreage that he mows and then bales the hay. Again, the man works seven days a week. Pretty sure he does more work than you.
      And by the way, he’s pretty tight with his money. So. Don’t judge someone by what they do for a living. He has more work ethic in his pinky than you have in your whole body. And if that’s your attitude then fine we don’t need you. Or rather vice grip garage doesn’t need you.
      So get lost. So get lost. @@chrisramsey3603

      @@chrisramsey3603 and on this particular project, he’s using a Junk motor that he will rebuild himself and a junk transmission and a junk rear axle oou of an old car instead of doing what most UA-camrs would do is buy a brand new engine engine brand new transmission brand new differential rear axle. So bro, again, stop judging this man by what you see others do.
      He is humble, and hard-working, a man as you would ever want to know
      Knock it off I’m pretty sure Derek doesn’t need me to defend him but, I’m gonna do it anyways. Don’t be an a$$

    I look forward to the rebuilt. I took my DMV driver's test back in the mid-60s and used our 35 Ford shop truch. Straight exhaust that climbed up the right rear corner of cab, including a large wooden push bumper on the front. Simpler times, from California 😎✌️
