    I love the truck and what you've done but more than anything I like the way you have shared it in these videos. This is by far the best set of progress videos I have watched, no annoying music, no 30 seconds of razamatazz at the start, just wonderful quiet informative entertainment. Love your work.

    Takes me back to when I was a kid. Used to ride with my dad during the summer months he was driving a 77 352 cabover Pete. I miss that truck. Now that I’ve been driving myself for awhile now. I would love to find an old cabover for myself. Preferably an old 352. Maybe someday. Lol

    There you go lad, one task at a time. I liked the time lapse of the tank install, reminded me of "Hammy" from "Over the Hedge" ( the squirrel on coffee beans ). She's looking good and getting there nicely, won't be long now when she goes from the "imagination" to the actual road. Keep safe and keep rolling! Cheers!

    If you were to stretch the frame of the truck,to add a 300 inch supersingle wheel base;with a stand up walk-in 120 inch sleeper,every yearly annual truck shows;like the NATHS Chrome 75 truck show,or the Macgungie,Pennsylvania NATHS truck show;you can tell all the other truckers: "I've got a really nice house (truck) with a nice hard wood floor".😂

  • @TutorialPanda
    @TutorialPanda 5 лет назад +1

    If you do have to drop that tank again, if you air up the cab or jack it up a little, you can get a standard impact and extension on it. takes some finessing to get the right angle on it but it is possible.

    she's comin together bud, I still can't believe how far you've come. Makes me want to spend money I don't have on a W900L. When you pull that wiring harness out you should walnut shell blast the underside of the fenders and paint them with either black bed liner or normal paint (nip that rust in the butt).

    @359 TwinSticks as long as the song clips are under 30 seconds your fine. Also your not using them in the video, they are playing on a radio in the background being broadcast to open air in public. They wont ding you for it. Now if you used it as like an into to your videos, that's a different story. I've used Jerry Reed in some of my video intros and the videos have been up for a few years. Never had a problem. Just remember everyone on youtube is an expert on everything... esp copyright law and youtube algorithms lol
