  • The road to Alaska just got shorter! We should be able to get the Alaska a ot fast with this Cummins Chassis that ‪@mtnfortresslabs‬ found in ‪@HeavyDSparks‬ storage lot. We have three months to get this project done and on the road. We plan on swapping the engine, transmission, and pretty much everything else to get this old girl to Alaska this summer. FOLLOW ALONG!

    I may sound like an annoying mother but, I know a guy that cleaned out an old boat hull with no respirator. It nearly killed him. He ended up with mold spores in his lungs. He has permanent damage to his lungs. I would wear a respirator for old projects. Love the videos 👍🏻

    I've just watched the last couple videos that involve the C60 and it has introduced me to the channel. It looks like it's gonna be an interesting project however I think if you describe what your vision is as well as what the plans for how things are gonna come together would make things a little more interesting more so than just showing how this chassis got pulled out of a container. I mean you can show that with a voiced narrative of maybe a little backstory on what this chassis and drivetrain was maybe some measurements on if you gotta stretch it out or if it's long what are you gonna do to fill the extra space like tol storage a back deck. I don't just some information on what your plan of attack is gonna be while showing what was involved in extricating it from its tomb. That's another thing that would be of interest to many viewers on one of the channels involved with heavy D is a tour of this storage yard it's mentioned and talked about many times as a place where many dreams hopes and planned awesomeness has come to rot n be forgotten I think it would be neat to see what all is in there with a little backstory

    Since you got the Chevy Van from the auction I would have used that and got a hotel every few days. Or just do a van conversion.
    I applaud your youthful enthusiasm but I think you have more optimism than reality of how extensive this project really is.
    2 is 1, and 1 is 0 (none). Always have a "Backup plan ".
    Looking forward to seeing your skills with Allen the Wizard in making his videos Spectacular like you're doing with Jackknife.

  • @joannehart9624
    @joannehart9624 10 месяцев назад +2

    Love the idea of putting the old cab on a modern chassis. Makes perfect sense to me. I'm curious though why you would start with such a dilapidated camping trailer though? I've built a small camping trailer and it seems like less work to build from scratch than try to rebuilt the one you have. Is it keeping the "old time" theme of the entire project? Not second guessing! Just curious. 🙂

    If anyone is feeling lonely and brokenhearted know that Jesus heals and delivers from every form of torment, he truly gives a peace that surpasses understanding that this evil world can never give.
    Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
    Fear and worry come from the devil but life and peace come from Jesus, God has been misrepresented by people who don’t know him.
