    HEY EVERYONE! UNFORTUNATELY the LUV TAP shirts aren’t gonna be available this week! We tried our hardest but we are gonna have to wait on them. BUT the mama didn’t raise no punk shirts are restocked and of course the Christmas shirts are on there.
    Hope y’all have a good Monday and we appreciate y’all’s continued support!

    Man really been diggin Slick being in the videos lately. You can tell you two have been friends for a minute. Still hoping for Slick to start a channel so we can see some of his sheet metal work. Thanks to both of you fellers for making Monday's a little better.

    • @swamp-yankee
      @swamp-yankee Год назад +2

      I think Puddin should cut him in as a partner. Maybe he could do his own stuff here. They’d probably do better financially with less channels between them to divide their viewers. They’ve already got two.

      I had a lil courier back in the day. Thrashed the hell out of it. But it kept going. My brother the shop Forman at Lexus just got a 78 ford courier with the long bed for free from a customer who’s family member passed away and nobody wanted it. Og paint, he gets more thumbs up in that lil courier than in his new tundra. Super gas saver too. Congrats on your find and have fun fixing her up.

    I bought a 76 back in 81 or so. Drove it for about 10 years. I loved the LUV. floorboards rusted completley out. Lost a few cans of beer that way. After I got married my Wife wanted to drive it to go pick up a keg. I said you really don't want to do that. Well she made it around the block parked it came in the house with a migraine and never asked to drive it again. :-)

    When I was 10 my grandaddy gave me his 78 Lightweight Utility Vehicle and I learned to drive. Me made me learn with a manual witch I figure should be a law every one learn with one lol. Had to stack pillows behind me to get the clutch pedal to the floor and as soon as I can I'll start saving and looking for one again. By age 17 I had 2 long beds, 2 short beds one of witch was 4x4 and 1 long bed auto Trans not all at the same time, never could get it to shift right. Grandaddy had me replace the head gasket when it blew on me I think a was 12. If he was still here he would have prob watch this with me. Thanks for showing the luv some love guys if I ever get a chance to get one of my own again I'll be the happiest man on Earth! And thank for bringing some great memories back!

    This access hole you are making is exactly like what the 521 series Datsun/Nissan trucks had in order to be able to replace any fuel lines that needed replaced within the future going from the top of the gas tank to the goose neck and any other fuel lines that need eventual replacement.

    So glad to see you clean and service things, in my book it's the only way to go! Glad to see someone that does it. It's bad enough to make something like this go with dirt grim and shit, you know that it's right, Love it clean as much as possible, Thanks, Thumbs Up!....

    • @TheREALOC1972
      @TheREALOC1972 Год назад

      Yep I agree, nothing pisses me off more than a "Professional" bolting up brand new or reconditioned part on something that's either rusted to shit or covered in mud, it's like damn bro atleast clean it with a wire brush and some rubbing alcohol and hit it with some rust stop or rattle can black. The "average guy" they trying to show how to build a car aint doing that crap, they are going to do it right.

    That Chevy Luv looks SPECTACULAR!!! Luv the stance, Luv the budget-friendly did-do's all over the place. She really looks good, worthy of some tin replacement on your second channel (floors, passenger side rear flank), nothing too fancy. She is a cruise-worthy, parts-fetching, true-blue pick-up truck. Congrats on a great refurb! Cheers!!!

    So got a chance to watch this and hate to admit it but the big chrome discs that Slick put on that rig really set it off, loved the use of the license plate and the stop sign as new floor material was perfect. And that new bed from the trailer was nice. Loved the collaboration between the two of you it’s good to see, it was amazing you two actually got done what you wanted to git did as you were having a good time laughing it up.
