Paint Your Project YOURSELF! Chevy K10 DIY Body & Paint
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- We are back on the '76 Silver Dollar Chevy K10 Sport Truck and demonstrate how you can do the bodywork, primer, and paint YOURSELF at home in your own garage and get good results! We start by block sanding and spot-filling the body before loading it up with primer for final block sand. We then spray a black base coat on the truck and load it up with 4 clear coats. Push perfection to the side and get your project painted - YOU can do this too!! Stay tuned for more of this old truck restoration!

17:40 process over product, every time
A box of hog rings and a bunch of $5 oversize bath sheets from the Aldi Finds aisle will do more to recover a car seat than any $1000+ upholstery kit from Eckler's or Danchuk or whoever. You don't need the "officially GM licensed" anything to make it *work* Same goes for the bodywork. If you know what needs to be done and you have some of what you need to do it *right* then you have EVERYTHING you need to do it *enough*
I was planning on going with a $300 LMG truck kit for my seat… Now I’m not sure lol
I appreciate the get it done body work. We're driving these vehicles, not obsessing over the them
When I began wrenching on cars at 14 I couldn't afford a cherry picker but an old chain hoist and a tree limb sufficed. You'll find a way if you really want it.
@@ctwolfgang433 I OBSESS ( SADLY ) IT NEVER ENDS.
See what you do is you just find a t-shirt or 2 that you like (1 for each seat if buckets or 2 for the bench.) Sewing really isn't that hard, just imagine you're tying really small knot's, like boy scouts.
Use the play button as a replacement floor panel for one of your next projects, self-tappers only though, no fancy welding
This ^
Great idea Second This
That would be fitting for the channel
Perfect idea.
I'd send him nice self tappers to do it with.
"The patina thing is cute and all, but paint is way better." Truer words... are a virtue, or something. I agree man. Subbed!
Chicks dig paint 🤷
I Agree totally.
Being a body tech myself it's nice to see people doing there own paint jobs and seeing how much work it actually takes to do a paint job
This is around the 100th job I've done, I think more people need to see what it really takes to do it. Maybe they won't bitch about the bill so much. Or hopefully, if I did my job, they'll do it themselves!
@@PoleBarnGarage 🗿 Thanks for sharing thisn 👍💯 Salute. You've given many some pointers that will help some fellers get er done. Be careful tho, ya don't want the Chip Goose types to expect too much😂
I had no idea how many layers and how much time it takes to do a half way decent paint job ... nor about the existence of ... air files .... 😂
@@PoleBarnGaragea show quality paint job will almost always be the most expensive part of a car.
Agreed 100% ! Rome wasn't built in a day, good body & paint work isn't either !
I was really expecting to see tractor paint and a roller or something, so I was surprised to see an actual paint job with chemistry lessons and math. This channel gets 100k and gets fancy! Cheers to the next 100.
Not everyone is Puddin's Fab Shop, lol
@UnhungHero lmao or HACKING long beds into short bed trucks! 😂 How are you gonna fit a 4x8 sheet of plywood and lumber in the box now? You'd need a trailer for every little thing!
A short box step side from factory is a different story.
Dalton, in a couple months I''ll be seventy, and I have to say, you have not a "can do" attitude, but a "will do" attitude. An attitude of inestimable value my friend! I had a 77 shortbox stepside with chrome bed rails, and custom paint that I ordered new and modded to where I wanted. You have made me smile my friend! Bringing that particular configuration around, and in "BLACK" is a worthwhile undrtaking, and I thank you!
Using body filler got a bad reputation from shops in the 70s and 80s who used it instead of body work to fix rust holes and dents. The way you're using it is entirely appropriate and the way all cars come off the factory assembly line. Very good job!
I agree! I used to detail used cars for dealers in the late 70s. I saw quite a few used cars that had rusted out and were patched with bondo, chicken wire and fiberglass. Those repairs lasted six months and the paint would start blistering. Who wouldn’t be ticked to find out they had a bondo bucket?! That is what gave body filler a bad name.
I do my own resto work now and replace rusted areas with metal and of course you have to use some filler and short strand fiberglass to get it sealed up and smooth.
However, there’s a lot of people out there now who are paranoid about poor body repairs. They think if you used any filler, you’re scamming them and the repair is garbage. Other people who have never done metal or bodywork think they are experts because they saw someone doing it on TV too and don’t realize there is more than one way to properly do a repair.
I’m 65 now and don’t have that many more years left to do bodywork as a hobby. But I’ve finally got half-ways decent at it. I am restoring a 73 Dodge van and doing a custom paint job on it with metal flake and candy. I’m doing a lot of airbrush work and it has several murals. It’s looking pretty damn good too. It’s going on three years since I started it. Just have the drivers side and roof left. It’s going into its first coat of high build today on those surfaces. The rest of the panels are painted.
@@randyhoepker5528very nice man I bet it will look great.
This channel is quickly becoming one of my favorite automotive themed channels. The way you involve your son and have patience to teach him is inspiring, I typically just fuss and yell at my 13 year old son when he "helps" me. The puns and sarcasm is straight gold! My 15 year old daughter will watch with me just for the smart remarks. Keep it up man! This is one of the most underrated youtube channels around in my opinion.
It turned out a lot better then I thought it would seeing how bad that truck was when you started. Glad to see my man J D back at it. Just waiting to see how the bed turns out. Glad people are starting to realize how good this channel is. Good people deserve good things to happen to them.
Appreciate that
Ah You make me proud to wear my P.B.G hat...Keep on it's workin...
Dalton, the algorithm must really like you right now. Your channel is growing fast……..soon we will all be “fixing” cars like you.
(Congrats, your channel is my favorite on RUclips and you have the best community of subscribers on the site, I mean that sincerely).
Y'all are reminding me of my childhood. My summers were spent in an old small garage in a holler. Blasting, sanding, and painting an early 60s Falcon. Some of my most cherished memories right there.
Dalton I really appreciated you explaining the importance of just enjoying a build and not making it perfect. The first work I did on a car was block sanding my grandpa’s 36’ dodge at 10lbs old. I went to school with kids who got a brand new lifted truck or Alfa Romeo if they crashed it, while I have hand down made and a driveway. There’s nothing more exciting than doing something really sketchy and seeing it actually work😂. Always excited to see new videos!!
Kudos. It's not many infants who will help sand your car.
@@3DThrills Typically only those who have " _hand down made and a driveway_ ".
So rare

I've tried and tried again, but the babies in my neck of the woods just ain't performin' !@@NoWr2Run
Dude, really love your personality and how you do things. When you make it, and you will, just don't forget where you come from.
Congratulations on 100k man! What an incredible achievement and a testament to your exceptional content and the impact you've made on your audience! It's well-deserved, and I can't wait to see where your journey takes you next. Here's to many more exciting milestones ahead!
Congratulations on 100k Dalton 🎉!! Looking forward to seeing more of your Silve dollar Chevy!!
Definitely worth being in the low buck club, just hopped in my semi for the evening but I know what I’m doing when I get back home
Safe travels
@@PoleBarnGarage thanks Dalton I appreciate it I’ll do my best
I thought my 73 C10 was a hopeless restoration untill I saw what you did with this. Amazing.
Way to go man! Congrats on 100k! You and Kevin make better content than any motor trend show. Thanks for the hard work👍
Damn right we do
16:47 this whole monologue hit me right in the feels. Thanks brother
You're a great teacher Dalton! Really good video and a great job. BTW, you and Junkyard Digs are an absolute hoot together!
The Silver Dollar series is a favorite so far! Been learning so much, perhaps most of all to not worry too much, and instead just go for it. Of course with some mental preparations of what lies ahead. But not overanalyzing and stuff like that. Cheers/skål!
I’m definitely not a body guy, but after you showed how it’s done, I feel a little more confident. And congrats on the 100k subs. I found your channel from JYD. I love y’all’s collabs. Keep up the great content
Your far more entertaining then most body men and I like the your honestly of the work your doing!
You are killing it, Dalton. Keep doing what you're doing.
He’s building the best channel on RUclips (IMO).
That truck is turning into a gem. I've been following waiting for more on this truck since you got it from Kevin
I been watching body work dyi videos for ten years and this was by far the best and easiest to understand for a dolt like myself. You aren’t just a great content creator, your a great teacher as well. Thanks dude! Also, congrats on 100k! You will be at half a mil by next year.
Here's hoping
If it's good enough for you, that's all that matters. Your doing great from what I'm seeing. Most the people who talk trash are sitting on the ass doing nothing. Just trolls. At least you speak truth.
I really love your channel! I'm not mechanically inclined or any type of body or paint guy whatsoever but I do love how you fix up old vehicles and get them back on the road. You and VGG take the time of explaining things as you go through the process.and that is so awesome! You should really be a mechanics teacher. Thank you for your channel and congratulations on your milestone!
Grats on the 100k, absolutely deserve it! You're rapidly becoming one of my favorite channels to watch 'cos you remind me of the same down to earth, doesn't have to be perfect, realistic and cheap car work I grew up doing with my dad as a kid. The stuff you do is absolutely 100% not fake like so much of the big shows, and I love that it's all stuff regular folks can do and you encourage that! Keep it up!
Excellent work. Love how you are showing your son the values of the fruits of your labor as your teaching him how to do the work. Be great if he goes on to use these skills, yet it doesn’t matter if he chooses a different path, the lessons remain. Hard work pays dividends
Looks fantastic, and big congratulations on hitting 100k subscribers. Glad I got to be part of that
Glad you were too!
Hi Dalton .. follower from Australia ive watched hundreds of car RUclipsrs over the years and yours is the most realistic down to earth one yet.. congratulations mate keep up the awesome work 👍👌
Thanks! High praise
Nice work! A do-able project in a carefully crafted work environment, realistic expectations and attitude to match!
18:09 truer words were never spoken amigo 👏🏻
You did an Awesome job, a step side is definitely on my bucket list!! Your son is lucky to have you as a Dad/Teacher
we've done so much with so little for so long that we can do practically anything with nothing - those are the words of wisdom from my dad.
First channel I became a member to and I'm glad I did. Keep up the great work Dalton
Thank you!
JD has a talent for operating the camera and he's getting better every episode.
This truck has gone a LONG way and its insane how good you've made it look in such little time.
You've given me a ton of motivation to paint my own car some more. I tried painting the bumper a few months back and its honestly been awful and since then has developed a lot of cracks and dings from use. Im going to give it another go with the information you put in this video. Cheers from the UK :)
Lookin Damn Good! 👍
So glad you're keeping this truck around! The paint is turning out amazing! Congrats on the 100k. Remember finding your channel back when it was around 9kish. Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks! Will do!
Silver Dollar is looking like it is freshly minted. You did a Hell of a job bringing it back to life Dalton.
Congrats Dalton on hitting the mile stone. Very nice to see your brand grow.
NICE JOB! Always a pleasure stopping by! All the best! Tony
Congratulations on 100K Dalton. Followed you over from that appearance with Kevin and every time I see the ol silver dollar Chevy I have remind myself that's the same truck you loaded up on a trailer with 2 wheels in the crusher and the other 2 on banana peels.
Love watching you and JD together! Thanks for the inspiration and for being a regular guy.
Watching this video makes me incredibly happy I subscribed a few months ago. Why? Because I'm sick of patina. IMO, patina is the sign of an un-loved vehicle. Think about it, there are channels that'll spend $10k+ on an LS swap, but they won't spend $1k on a DIY paint job. If Dalton wanted to flip this rig (he won't) it's worth thousands more now than if he just got it running and moved on to the next one like so many other channels do. Don't get me wrong, revivals are fun to watch but I'd much rather see the full story of a vehicle revival with a flip, than seeing it dumped in a tree row and forgotten all over again. Awesome content!
I tip my hat to you young man. You did what probably over 90% of the folks out there do. Your own paint and body work. My friend and I did it for over 30 years the exact same way. In an smaller garage and no paint booth. It can be done! Keep up the great work and keep the content a coming.
This K10 is quickly becoming a favorite of mine
17:00 So.. I see you pinned a comment with basically the same timestamp, but man you are telling my story brother. My dad was a mechanic by job when younger (it's a long story he had boilermaker certs, was an engineering guy but always hands on not an office dude, always had grease under his fingers and all that - just like me) anyway, he did exactly the same, we are the same way.. I learned with NOTHING. NOTHING. But damnit no matter what that man touched, and now me, it was turned to gold. It's just the way it goes, no I'm nothing like he was, but I'll tell you the best compliment I EVER got in my WHOLE life and it'll never happen again was the day my old man told me "nice work, son." You know how that felt. Damn I miss my dad. Rest in Peace Dad.
I would have never thought the silver dollar Chevy would ever look that good!
I love the actual walk thru of some body showing u the actual steps to do something basic as this but to a degree that is actually acceptable by anyone walking by
I enjoy watching you & your Son working together . You have a lot of Common Sense and Talent . The truck looks excellent too me !
Been here about a year. It's like watching a slightly older me with a killer sidekick do the things I would do if I didn't have anyone in my life to tell me no, and I fuqin love it.
The craziest part about this is that Dalton actually did a better paint job then a good majority of "professional body shops" I've had experience with / Worked for
You are so spot on about having a dad that let's you learn while having fun. We didn't work on cars but carpentry. Built my first balcony around age 13. Always the best feeling to fix something yourself
"Just fine" for who its for, best fraze ever
I am restoring my 1973 bug and doing everything myself and watching this really taught me some new things about the paint. This will be the second car I ever painted.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 100K SUBSCRIBERS!!!
YOU 100% EARNED IT. I'm looking forward to seeing you hit the 1M mark.
Keep doing what you are doing and you will 😁👍
The king of Miami vice shirts strikes again 😂😂😂🤘🏻💯
44:37 "I've worked on this by myself"... Credit where due, JD helped a lot :)
Regardless of the hacked together body work, saving that truck is a miracle. Well done sir.
Kudos to your boy for being a great camera man!
The best part about this channel is he doesn’t try to be funny and make jokes it just comes naturally unlike other people who have channels like this
Most of the time, my projects are such a disaster, the shit writes itself 😂
As you were painting the truck you mentioned how the paint might have flaws in it and you know it - that sounded like you responding to comments.
My response is: You Be You!
You are the reason I watch. Projects are cool but to see you in action and especially with JD (wish my dad was half the dad you are) , that is what makes your content compelling. Please don’t ever apologize for being you.
Loved the pep talk about your dad just getting shit done, absolutely correct people with excuses just means there useless or lazy or both.keep up the good work Dalton you deserve more subs. Cheers from Adelaide South Australia
Congrats on 100k!! Building great memories with your son is priceless 🫡🫡
It’s nice to see paint on your channel shows the quality that you learned from your father
Wiser words have never been spoken...or, maybe spoken before? I don't know...but "you can do it you just need to get out there and try". It means a lot. Awsome vids, dude almost needs his own show!! Thanks for everything!
D your body work wardrobe is off the hook. Who is your tailor/fashion consultant? You’ve inspired me to try some body work on my roughest car. Keep up the good work, you are the shop teacher I never had, cheers
Man! that turned out good! You are a true car guy because they always finish the project with a paint job. A Genuine car guy! NOT a poser!
I never would have believed it! That truck looks SO good! It is amazing how much improvement you made on that truck, Dalton!!! NICE JOB!!!
The whole point you made about perfectionism and doing things the “right” way instead of just diving headfirst into issues and finding those good ol’ shade tree mechanic solutions is *exactly* the kind of thing I love about this channel. Oh and the false confidence I now have to repaint my XJ…
Still confidence
Guy, you just made my evening! Your sense of humor is so refreshing and I really like the truck! You totally have the right idea! Dont take life too serious!
Great job, sir! Your, son is growing up, before our very eyes! It's great, your including him!
I love watching you & your son work together on a project.
Considering it’s been painted in a dusty barn that’s come up really well. Loving this content.
17:56 Hell yeah! It don’t have to be perfect, get out and have fun with it. Perfect is boring.
16:44-18:16 Could be a Great LESSON To Many people out there! If you get NOTHING else from this video, Rewatch that part a few times! Keep up the Great work Dalton!!
Finally!! Someone doing DIY bodywork, and doing it well! Great job, love the channel
Congrats on 100K. You have the personality and perfect content. This channel will hit a million subs, mark my words. Congrats Dalton.
Hope you're right!
This dude is great to watch, and now I understand why none of my body work projects turned out good, I skipped a lot of steps
I do that all the time. Just make it work with what you got. 😊
I learned so much... like I will never do any but the most simple of body work. Thank you.
I'm looking forward to seeing your truck in all its glory. It's nice to see you using the talents God gave you. I like everything you've done, but this is really nice to see. Congratulations on a really good-looking truck in the near future.
That lecture Just gave me The Most confidence in getting my clapped 81 w250 Running and Driveing and Even with absolutely no body work experience I wanna Do body work!!!
glad you're wet sanding it. I've never seen one that a wet sanding looks better than not.
I love the insect sounds in the background. I live in town and rarely hear them.
Those cheap guns with the huge needle were perfect for spraying glue for interior work.
Ive been working on rebuilding a 65 f100, I dont have the money to rebuild it the "right way" Over 2 years of work with a little bit spent here and there its now 95% done. Rebuilt the entire thing from the ground up. I had never rebuilt a car or truck ever before. Taught myself how to weld, rebuild an engine, rebuild a transmission, rewiring, body work, painting, interior work. The entire thing has been done on a budget, I bought very few new things and the only thing I spent any real money on was having the engine block machined and the rebuild kit for the engine. The rest was either part I fabricated or sourced from pull a part or auto swap meets. Its been a fun journey and will be on the road shortly.
It was the first time I had ever done something like this, I learned a lot from it and made due with what I had, it wont be perfect, but it will be functional and reliable.
You have just done the very thing I had to do from the time I was a kid on my old farm trucks. And even a less than perfect paint and body job looks better than a rusty old pile of junk. My brother was a cop, and he always told me if a guy driving a old truck is willing to keep the paint and body repaired, they probably are looking after things like brakes too, and they didn’t pull a old truck that looked like the guy was trying to maintain it. But the trucks with rust holes and a different colour door, they were suspect of not being fit for the road. I have been watching for a long time, and keep watching because you show guys that they can fix a lot of their own stuff. And it doesn’t have to be show room condition, just look respectable. Good work.
Awesome Black paint job on the ole Chevy truck Dalton,Good job on the son working with yah !😁👍🙏,Keep up the Good ole hard work,is quality & appreciation for what any one has to work with even myself !😜👍...
24:09 Crap is about to get real, JD enters the shed. Good sanding young man. 🇦🇺🤙🏼
This is the most professional I have seen this channel do, great job!
Paint looks great 👍 nice job Dalton 👍 👏
Christ, you have so much knowledge. I wish I had found you sooner. Nobody cares how to paint a car with an unlimited budget... YOU actually make it seem doable for the average car guy. Not easy... Or fun. But doable. Thank you for the lesson. I'll probably have to watch it a few more times but atleast it's there to refer to.
what a transformation from the rust bucket to this nice piece!
Congrats on the 💯k mark.🗿 Over a thousand comments in fourteen hrs 🌘🌒 She's turning into a black beauty. Thanks for sharing
Popular ol girl !
I found your channel when I was watching J.Y.D's channel and I like the rusty look but nothing beats a good paint job and finally I get to watch someone who does a great job cheap, as I'll never afford a pro job so need to do it myself and you make it simple to understand and look awesome
You have gained 31k subscribers in a month. That is as great as the result of your painting.
I feel it in my bones that you are going places.
You have put together a great combination of characters and content. I am looking forward to seeing what the future has in store for you.
