you know it bad when hoovie tells you its a pos lol
What’s bad is u don’t know body work. Simple easy fixes unless ur a noob. Yeah I can see why u whine. Omg a hole in metal. What do I do. Omg. Omg hanging a fender or replacement rocker. Omg. I guess if you can’t screw it in or bolt it your clueless. Actually I love when mechanics do all the heavy lifting work on the fixing of it. When it’s ugly and a mess cosmetically u get real bargains. Looks sell and that’s all that matters. Like a moth to a flame
PUUUUNNTTT!!!
So true 😃😃
Took the words right out of my mouth!!!
I bet Wizard gets it all sorted for under 5 or $6,000. He will have less than $11,000 in it. Not a show truck, but just a nice truck.
"This thing's got two or three felonies under it's belt" Best quote!
Kind of sounded to me like he was present for one or more of those
It's all drug highway mileage.
Hoovie really missed an opportunity to follow that up with "Speaking of felonies.." and point at the wheels. haha
@@TheCobruhAlienat0r the wheels arent that bad
That's a *_really_* common replica wheel, for well under $300.00 each.
I've had a set on my 2014 Chevrolet Silverado Z71 LTZ for years. 👍
Wizard pulling a Hoovie, and Hoovie shaking his head in actual disbelief is so perfect.
Hoovies antics are starting to rub off on the Car Wizard!!! It was bound to happen sooner or later!!! Poor Mrs Wizard!!! 😲
Wiz jus doin it for the clicks, the clicks
Hoovie seems happier than he has in quite a while. Love you man.
got rid of the naggin wife.. #SingleLyfe
No wife, happy life.
@@ProjectRescuespreach 🙌🏻
What do you expect from a phillipine
Fucking AMEN... White guys will never learn. 🤣@@kurtjammer9568
It appears that Grimes is finally able to afford a shop uniform. Way to go Mr Ace mechanic!
"This thing's probably at least got at least or 3 felonies under it's belt" 😂
"So your two best panels have bullet holes in them!" Not the appraisal you want to hear when a friend is checking out your new ride. 🤣
I'm at the 10 min mark, and I'm guessing .45 cal if they dig it out of the door
Don't exaggerate. The guy with the rivet gun just sneezed a couple of times..... maybe
That rust is non existent. Amazing the difference in perspective of rust from state to state.
Yeah that trucks not bad overall. I'd leave it tf alone, replace the wheels and lugnuts, tear that wing off and then run it as is.
Agreed. I live in Texas and I have a 2004 Acura TL 6 MT and a 2008 Honda Odyssey EXL that I have owned since brand new, and not a spec of rust anywhere on the vehicle. It is one of hte advantages outside of freedom, liberty, and the rule of law that we enjoy in Texas.
The wheels, smoked out taillights, and wing are a tell-tale sign this truck was Mexican-owned....
Do not buy a truck from the Mexicans. I am speaking from experience. Do not do it and save yourself headaches. After seeing 45+ Silverados while shopping and noticing a pattern you know.
@@SuperSnakePlissken rule of law lol. I respect the texan spirit but the way you guys have been abandoned by the feds ..... man it sucks
Exactly if they can’t bolt anything they’re clueless about actually fixing a vehicle body or paint. But hey slam it.
I just got rid of the same truck last year but in a 99 first year. Black 4.8 4x4 shortbed in black. Best vehicle I've ever owned. Had to do knock sensors and a fuel pump in the 80k miles that I owned it. Pa salt started getting into the frame at 184k. Sold it still running fine but miss it everyday. 4.8 are great engines too. They take boost better than the 5.3 because of the flat top pistons. Great truck
Hey @Car Wizard, I've been watching you for a few months and at first I used to think you were a little boring. However seeing this videos with your other shop workers and seeing jokes being thrown around really reveals much more of your personality, you seem like a pretty cool guy! Thanks for all the information you provide on your videos!
Four Dudes talking life, trucks, conspiracies...and Mrs. Wizard bringing the Wizard back to reality...this storyline ought to be interesting!
Epic one!😅
Pure RUclips gold!
The back and forth with Hoovie and Wizard is honestly grant banter, and I love that it gets to happen on video.
I liked Grimes sense of humour too.
15:45
Hoovie is only person that can make Wiz laff like that!😅
This is one of the best videos and most entertaining that you guys have ever made! I’m going to watch it again!
Have to name this truck “Anger Issues” 😂
Looks like the truck was involved in some road rage. The fist punch the panel kick the bullet holes the panel scrape looks to be from a key.
Grimes must be a permanent cast member in every video from now on! Pure gold
This video was so great! Godspeed wizard! You made my day. 🙂 I have a feeling that most of the damage on this truck happened in a short period of time. Perhaps even all at once.
I love you guys! Don't ever stop!
You guys are a great team. Get Hoovie a microphone too.
I don’t know why neither of these men run two separate microphones for their channel. You can pick up a receiver and two wireless mics for not a lot of money.
@@hughbrown496don't Hoovie *and* Wizard have wireless mics in their own vids?
Hoovie was not wearing a microphone here. @@hughbrown496
I didn't have a problem with audio. no need to mic everybody
They probably do not read comments anymore now that the channel is doing so good. I have not seen a reply or comment in a long time so they probably will not see this. Happens a lot with youtubers once they see success they stop interacting with those that helped bring them success. Going to be a public person you got to take time out to visit with the fans:P
The wonder twins together again - even I like both of your channels individually - I love it when you guys are working together !!! Love to see the work on the pick up - and anything else you do together !!!
Did ya notice even Hoovie got a dig in about THE CAR CROOKS billing rates
Their lovemaking is very passionate
I agree, they are more entertaining than the un-boxing at the cemetery video.
Despite all the bad bits - I think this is a decent little truck underneath! This is a really good Wizard type of project. I think it could looks seriously good when she’s had some TLC! You all make such a good team though - I love the banter
I started watching you and trying to fix all the WEIRD Mistake autos that Tyler gets himself into and you both are great. If I did not live in Central Florida, I would buy cars and let you fix everything. Not only are you a Wizard in diagnosing and fixing autos, you are so very entertaining. Love seeing you and Ms. Wizard do reviews.
With a new engine, box, body, wiring, interior and lights it will bee a good truck.
you forgot, transmission.
😂😅🤣
Truck of Theseus
The engine is fine. The transmission needs rebuilt.
The rarity of single cab shorties from any brand is making me hold onto mine for dear life
While the rest of us are hoping to find one that we don't have to mortgage our house to afford.😅
My 92 Silverado regular cab short bed was stolen 2 years ago. At least I had full coverage on it.
i don't understand the love for them. i drove an almost new then 454ss and i was cramped up. i am only 6' 1". i have owned several gm and dodge trucks, none of the single cabs because they are too small.
@@batsonelectronicsless cab = bigger bed which = a better work truck
@@joshua_lee732 hoovy said it was regular bed not long bed. so same bed size as an extended cab. ( which has way more room and small backseats )
This was a really fun video. Keep it up Wizard!
Right! First thing, head on over to the local junkyard to find replacement body panels. Which ones? All of them, obviously. 😅
I love that the whole shop is having fun checking it out
And the guys did great on camera. I’d just freeze up, especially around that group. The Wizard, Mrs. Wizard and Hoovie? (And I don’t think the truck is that bad…transmission issues aside, nonexistent rust? Winner!)
I loved this video - spontaneous, with good inter-personal chemistry. Grimes was a great addition.
Hey guys loved the video. It's a good truck, and with all the banter, and with the wizards time it will be a fantastic project . I love the short bed single cab and that is a great start. Good choice
This looks awesome you should make this truck how you want it.Super excited to see this truck come to life Mr wizard
For once Hoovie wins the sight unseen challenge
Hoovie really seems like he’s enjoying this. 😂
Hoovie is always hilarious in the background of these videos lol
Great vid guys- and thanks Hoovie for the tip on Pepto-Bismol. Something to look forward to.
I didn't know the single cabs go for that much ! Time to sell mine😁
Hoovie has been waiting for this moment for so many years
Wow. Wizard must have REALLY wanted one of these trucks.
Stonks indeed!!! Love this, Wizard!
I like it with whole gang there with each having their own perspective.
This channel is slowly turning into a Crime Drama and I'm here for it!
How can you go wrong with a bullet riddled black ride! Two thumbs up!
Can’t wait to see the fix
Wizard rollin' gangsta. Always fun to watch the byplay with you and Hoovie.
Sand, bondo, paint and buff. That's truck is a $800 maco special waiting to happen and that's all it's worth to do!
When Hoovie tells you you should punt, I think you punt. 😝
Man this is one of the best videos wizard has made no doubt 😂
Thought I was going crazy at 9:45 when the clip plays twice. I swear I didn't just rewind there I'm telling myself 😂
I kinda felt better now after buying a 2004 dodge ram 1500 with a Hemi for 650 dollars a couple weeks ago lol. Had to replace the engine, but I did drive it home so that’s a win lol.
Grabbed a 450 dollar engine from the wreckers and she’s a runner hehe.
Damn that’s a steal, you could flip it and get a huge profit lol
You got a running driving full size truck for under 2k, that's amazing.
That truck needs to be in some DA’s evidence room.
Frfr
You'll have a TON of content...and I'll be here for it!
The body damage is inconsequential when you take into consideration that the (replacement) 4L60E transmission will also puke any minute, as well...
Daniel San and Grimes are great additions to the shop! Hilarious stuff guys! 😂
Being a gangsta's truck I suggest you should be really careful if you open any secret compartments that you find 😂
Love this tandem tour 🤣🤣 specially when Hoovie got to the bullet holes 😂😂😂
i love the truck reminds me of my gmc envoy that ive been fixing up for years and aint worth a dime but its about the journey not the destination. look forward to seeing the repairs.
The wonder twins are back! Great content guys. Hoovie needs to sit at the Wizards desk and present the bill.
Wizard's trying to get on Hoovie's level of dumb and I love it. I'm just disappointed we didn't have Grimes look at the truck, shake his head, and walk away.
Luckily the Wizard can fix it himself lol
Nobody said no, because they all want it.
Can’t wait to see more videos on this! 💪🏼
Great buy! bought my self short bed single cab couple months ago also in black. Great aftermarket support fun fast trucks
you two would make great content on a US version of wheeler dealers. Hoovie buys and negotiates, Wizard fixes and educates.
That's actually not a bad idea.
17:12 lmfao Hoovie is in the background breaking the truck as Wizard is showing Grimes. 😂😂😂😂. The look on Hoovie at 17:22 when it looks like Hoovie lost the antenna in the fender. 🤣
Nice truck for the channel, looking forward to upcoming videos . Put a 5.3 in with tow rear, it will fly. I know, because I had one in a 2-wheel drive back in 2012.
nice truck wizard. you look happy with ur purchase i hope u make a good profit
Love it! Hoovie gets to make fun of you! Priceless!
Nothing like a video with the Car Wizard and Hoovie together👍🏼
Thank you Car Wizard for making me feel good about my 04 4X4 Silverado.
It has less than 70K miles on it, but it’s been through some pretty rough terrain as my firewood hauler.
The body is dented, scratched and rusted, but at least it hasn’t been shot!
😁
that roll pan bumper is *chefs kiss
This was one of the funniest videos ever…..classic. Love the interaction with all the gang….lol
If the 4.8 is an iron block and lists 4.8 5.3 6.0 on the side then it can be bored out. GM used the same block on some of the LS engines with the iron block. That, or turbo that 4.8 🙂
I dig it. Roll pan single cab short beds are amazing. This is the perfect shop truck.
The black ice little trees hanging in the black single cab Silverado reminds me of my best friends truck in high school. Jennifer was the trucks name and there were a lot of good memories in that thing.
Bullet hole, "That could of hurt someone" I think that was the intent.
Rather have the 72!
I like it Car Wizard as long as you did not pay too much you will be fine, that is a lot of work
Thats the perfect turbo build truck. Those 4.8 have seen large boost numbers. Gotta replace transmission anyway so put a good one in to hold 500 hp or more
🤔🤐😂Common misconception that people with no knowledge have...say LS big power blah, blah! That high mileage 4.8L ain't worth none fr! To get 500hp out of a 4.8 or 5.3, you would need to spend big money, it's not that easy and definitely not cheap either! You would need bigger injectors, ported heads or trick flow heads, aggressive camshaft, better cai, better exhaust and a tune...then maybe you will make 500hp! If not...turbo or s/c will be needed! That's a whole bunch of money, LS fan boys make it seem like...you can magically make any LS put out big power cheaply!👎👎That's only true with coyote or predator engines though, because their DOHC NOT OHV...all you need is better cai, better exhaust and a tune!🤔😉💯💯💯
Good to see you guys together again, that truck though😂😂
That truck is worth 3500 - 4500 cash here in Houston texas all day…even with that replaced odometer with fake miles ,that’s from a 2006
I have the same dash cluster in my 04 cateye. It was purchased new from dealership by me.
Wizard is a genius with this truck and all the videos he is going to make fixing it.
Depending on the purchase price, it would make a good working truck. I think a good tune up and fix a few of the annoying things (the smell) and just use it as a truck!
Looking forward to seeing the restoration of this truck
This one actually has a lot of potential. Body panels are easy to come by and gmt800s are super easy to work on. De-gangster it, fix the issues, cheap paint job and it could be a nice cruiser. 4/6 drop and some nice wheels and you have a nice little sport truck.
Telling facts my man. They’re not body guys at all can’t refinish anything themselves. Could easily fix those minor things refinish and flip for 15. Oh well. Not the best on body estimations are they. Actually I would do my own refinishing. Easy base clear job for low cost too if you know how. Simple and fun. But hey if it’s scratched sell it 😂
The cateye (facelift) gmt800s have a lot more wiring hiccups than the NBS gmt800s. If the wiring has too many issues, it's debatable if it is worth it
Also the 4.8 handles boost really well and at only 190,000 miles it’s begging for some turbos. I know the wizard is just fixing it but this would be a really cool street truck to either do a dirt cheap 500 ish horsepower turbo setup or go a little further for 700+ horsepower.
@@cavalierliberty6838 How so? I
have had several gmt800s and have never had any wiring issues. This one looks like a simple fuel pump and probably one of the seat sensors for the airbag message
@@joshweaver38 were yours cateye or round body? Everyone I've met with a cateye has a ton of wiring problems because GM started cheaping out and using thinner wires around that time.
Wizards Laugh alone had me dying 😂😂, my previous boss had similar laugh and we all loved it❤
Excited about this build
Grimes has a career in brutal-but-honest car reviews.
Rims look stolen and owner has anger issues. Implied by the border and other white guy was scared if the location he was at. Seems like normal racist behavior,no wonder you enjoyed it. Just say it was bought from a paisa and move on. Instead they attempt to make digs every chance they get." Well they hauled something,that's for sure" just stop racist.
Wizard: yea this bullet almost went through. Could’ve hurt someone.
Me: i believe that was the intention 😂😂😂
There are prefabricated rocker panel kits available to fix the rust issues. Worth body shop work - great trucks. Have a full repaint after rust adressed. Use Fluid Film after body work to prevent future rust issues. Parts readily available.
Wow. I have a 06 in the same configuration, and this one is making mine look nice. It has 260k and it runs and drives. The trans is starting to do what 4l60s do.
Edgar must have had a good time with the Chevy 💀
There's no doubt that you bought an SS (sombrero special).🤣
It's not all that bad. I have an 02 Z 71 Silverado I call Big Red. It's had a much rougher life than that one. Originally it belonged to a fire department in Central Missouri, then it belonged to a guy who cut wood for a living, then the maintenance man where I worked bought it as a work truck on the job and for his construction job. Big Red has worked very very hard. Fortunately the owners before me kept up the maintenance fairly well. It had a lot of items needing repair when I got it. Everything has been addressed at this point. Mechanically Big Red is perfect. Cosmetically, rough, rusty, every panel is dented, scratched, or both. It has 325,000 miles, runs and drives perfectly, no warning lights. I'd say you could drive across country without a worry. I love my old truck.
I loved the Pepto Education from this!
Hey Wizard: Your Chevy Truck is really cool. Yeah it’s ruff , but it’s a short box fleetside!! My suggestion is to pull the box, change out the sending unit fuel pump assembly. Pull front clip Then power wash the frame, motor etc. I’d get a 6.2 and trans from bone yard and put in it. You could fix the cab and doors then just replace bed and front clip with later from bone yard. You might be able to get full box for just a few hundred as well as a front clip. It’s definitely worth saving.
I'm guessing that Hoovie dented the roof? 😅
love the alarm in it
Regular cab, short bed trucks look awesome! Especially step-sides!
I don't think the wheels are stolen. I'm running honeycombs on both my 04 Silverado and my wife's 05 Escalade. The smooth center cap is indicative of an aftermarket knock off wheel. There are quite a few companies selling reproductions.
The wheels on this truck are called snowflakes.. Every douche bag from 17 to 25 with a junk pos truck has a set in my town.. And they all think their truck is bad ass.. Every one of them have straight pipes that sound even worse than the truck looks..
I love those trucks but man wizard you got a lot of work ahead of you man
I would love this if this truck would turn into a wizard series of fixing this thing up!
I think it'll be a fun series. A good shop truck!
