    DO NOT PAINT THE TRUCK, DO NOT PAINT THE TRUCK, DO NOT PAINT THE TRUCK!!!!!
    PATINA, PATINA, PATINA!!!!!!! 😅😅😅
    only thing I'd add is to "fake patina" treat that roll pan to match the rest of the truck. The black looks off from the rest and you can treat it already installed. Awesome job as usual!

    Absolutely love the look of the truck! The shiny bolts in the wood could have been a little more darker. Maybe sandblasted and the blue liquid that turns them black.

  • @toyotas4ever

    That looks great! Awesome video and such a cool old Toyota! The wood turned out great! I searched videos about diy wood bed floor and yours was one that caught my eye. (Mainly the Toyota) I'm really considering doing this to my '04 Tundra. I have some rust in the bed floor and don't really want to patch weld it all. There's so many holes. Outside of my truck is excellent and solid. I think a wood floor would look great and hide the ugly floor. Great video!

  • @johnstephen8116
    @johnstephen8116 Год назад +5

    Great idea for an old truck Fyi I would think about using an old bike tube or flexible hose to put on the chains on the tailgate or else they make a racket going down the road the old school trucks used to have those on the chains the bed turned out awesome well done 👍

    • @unclejesse88
      @unclejesse88 Год назад

      Good idea, or maybe some larger gauge shrink tubing.

  • @fj55tyrant
    @fj55tyrant Год назад +4

    Looks awesome, should have ceracoated the bolts the same color as the valve cover. Keep up the good work

  • @AllThingsMech
    @AllThingsMech Год назад

    This is absolutely next level, Austin. That wood is NEVER something I would have expected for this build, but what an amazing result! You are a great example of what someone can accomplish with less than ideal tools, a little ingenuity and an outstanding attitude when it comes to doing things the right way. Incredible work man.
    The only thing I'd suggest is that if you havent done so already, pull the wood out one last time and seal the floor. Rust reformer, POR15, Duplicolor rust fix, etc...they won't stop the rust completely but they'll help keep it from getting any worse for a while - and being concealed under the wood, you won't lose any of that visible patina you're going for.

  • @LobbyDaLobster
    @LobbyDaLobster Год назад +5

    I'd paint the tray under the wood just for piece of mind.
    I think the wood would look good on the back of the tailgate too.

    • @tommyrazor11
      @tommyrazor11 Год назад +1

      I totally agree with ya on both points

    • @IanG1978
      @IanG1978 Год назад

      That wood will trap moisture and the bed, will rust away, if u like the patina I would at least clear coat the bed under the wood.

    Looks great! I really hope you do something with the outside of the truck. That bed, interior, wheels, engine bay, and chassis/suspension looks so good that exterior just seems wrong to leave all banged up and rusted looking

    Barnwood bed with the old truck would be sick basically how it looks already but I'd leave more of the texture of the wood just lightly sand it and stain it looks amazing

  • @pacificnorthwest9416

    Premium build my dude. Don’t give in on the people howling about a paint job. This is the perfect balance between refined precision and rustic patina. It makes the build very unique. Plus you will never have to worry about those tailgate chains scratching the bed :)

  • @todd_halfacre
    @todd_halfacre Год назад

    Adding weight to the back(within reason) just helps with 50/50 balance. Spot on work brother. You’re doing it up right! Minus the wheels(I’ll keep hating em til they get browned, lol)
    But seriously, everything’s perfect. Seriously.

    Austin, do yourself a favor, go back and either loctite those nuts or use Nylock nuts.
    There is more vibration than you think back there and those nuts will back off, even with a spot lock washer. Personally I would have colored those carriage bolt heads, but that's just me.
