Little tip put the straight treads on back and diggers on front it will save you rear end
Each one of those trucks someone brought home new and was proud of it once.
That’s the sad part
And now it’s scrap metal get over it
@@Joes_Tractor_Collection not really sad everything has to come to an end, and at least these trucks are giving people thrill and excitement
Ya I guess but these trucks are getting harder to find people love the classics
Idk about that there was a ford in the mix
Gotta start looking for chevys near this place. In central Pennsylvania prices, this is like watching a Ferrari demo derby.
i'm in pa..not really any chevys like this around
Up in canada those trucks would have been considered rust free and mint projects. Unreal that those got smashed. Like are those for real rust free cabs??? Do you know what you could sell those for up here? Lol
I just bought a pre 1980 Chevy cab for $ 2,500 , not the entire truck, just a cab with doors.
Studio Earth I’m in western pa and thinking the same thing
I've got 8 of these trucks rt now....kentucky
that's my all time favorite chevy trucks, 73-87, breaks my heart seeing these destroyed instead of restored lol
Its weird being from the mid west, I can't believe you are destroying those truck beds that don't have rust
Im from eastern canada . im jealous all these rust free parts
@@ford1979truck I was in Windsor and noticed everyone on steal rims and then I realized those are for there winter tires. You guys are smart up north.
Bro it's sad to see that old square body chevy are destroyed
Best part of the day, smashing chevies
@@danderson9881 👍
Dime a dozen where I live
yea and they one they built had no dents or rust
It’s sad to see the old trucks and cars get smashed
That truck was worth a lot more than a derby lol
poor square bodies
@@bigboreracing356 bullshit there all valuable let crash some 3valves or new rams no loss there
Some dont even have rust
they're worth a fortune in Australia!
@@ianvader4697 trade you for a ute
@@rustedratchetgarage6788 What are the odds of them being destroyed to extinction from all this are?🤔
This was painful. What are you thinking? I can't even find a truck as good as the one you are going to destroy.
I've got 8 here in Kentucky...ill sell you one😂
Will do anything for views people watch the show they get millions from advertising firms if they think they will make 500k on a few episodes they would smash up an al original 70 ls6 454 chevelle
Whistlin diesel: "hold my beer "
You now why trucks nowadays. They are not that strong. I like trucks from the late 80s
Cool Video but I would definitely wanna do my cage before welding the doors shut!
A lot of people are mad that they are smashing square bodys but you gotta think most of these trucks dont have titles and the bodys were already rough so they aren't worth parting out. Not all of them but I'd say quite a few of them.
I’d drive that to work everyday. I wouldn’t care lol
Hey look. An episode from when Trucks was a good show.
Why destroy a squarebody
Exactly mate.
Half these trucks are not worth saving.
@@bigboreracing356 have you looked at the prices on original parts and even complete trucks the square body trucks are going way up in value
Cause they suck that's y lol honestly I'd do the 88to98 style b4 a square body
Nooooo!! Not the square body's
No loss
I spent 3 months repairing my old bed and this seems hard to look....
Its awesome but it hurts to watch square bodys get smashed up if you love em as much as i do
So, you couldn't do the interior work BEFORE you welded the doors shut?
It's better to do it after so everything can be made to fit exactly and with all the glass out it really doesn't make it any harder.
They dont know shit stacy David actually does but when they go to commercial the real builders take over David fryburger and lucky Costa called these shows out on it
Omg theres even a 67-72 in there
....
I never could stand watching demo derbies. Ever since dads 73 Torino wagon bit the dust.......
I am pissed at you guys for ruining those squarebody trucks
poor baby lol
This hurts. Why smash up a good rust free truck? You couldn't get one that's not so nice? Damn, that truck was worth way more than scrap.
These trucks are in better shape then what you see on the road here in Ontario. I’d pay good money for one of those rust free trucks
All those rust free beds are worth $1500 a pop in the midwest
wow! here i thought they were always junk trucks, but they got more money in aftermarket parts than my house is worth, and those truck bodys are in better shape than mine.
Check out Gropp engineering and see how many thousands of dollars you can spend on a top of the line derby engine.
It may be Gropp automotive or something like that.
Ski inc, postal mopar, baldwin engines. Takes money to run big shows.
I don't care what year the truck is I don't wanna see a c10 get destroyed
I was thinking the same thing~
Thanks for the derby video guys. I love derbys there is just as much ingenuity that goes into derby cars as race cars. Where I live if you don't have 10k invested into your figure 8 car you won't even begin to be competitive. Its big here.
That truck was in better shap then my project truck mine is an 1981 Chevy
1:38 " We are all about safety ", ( gas tank is sliding around in the bed ) .
I saw that too!
I park my piece of junk in the front yard!
You say demolition derby truck. I say daily driver.
I like this build . Been around the sport around the sport for 19 years and my boss is a promoter
I feel like I lost 12 teeth and 30 iq points watching this.....
Gug gug jus don't start lovin on yer sister 🤪

@@MrTheHillfolk m,! T4
This is torture
Would liked to of seen them finish the build I think they should revisit the subject with either another truck or a car or some sort because this is one of the few times a show has done something like this and not turned it into a joke
Makes me mad that people destroy good old project trucks for this. Ugh
Same here brother.
@@bigboreracing356 LOL!!!!!!!!!
@Thystaff Thywill Yep.
Why not the junkyard would jus crush them so why not have some fun with it "It's just a truck dnt worry " they make them everyday
@@AlexRivera-pr9cl not old iron like that they don't
You put new tires on a derby truck ....This does not compute , captain
I love a good demo derby but to see all those old squarebodys destroyed. 😥
I'm sorry 79 for scrap , I should of found it first it wouldn't of went to the demo derby it would of been a frame up resto-mod.
You should come up to north Idaho, there's a few old square bodies and 60's dodge truck behind damn near every barn. We rent a house that's on a farm, landlord lives on the other side of the barns. Just here there's a '74 k20, a '72 c60, two late 40's/early 50's dodge flatbeds, and two or three 60's Dodge trucks.
@@OldGriz708 That's my problem having a trailer and driving that far with my vision without a co-pilot. night driving is out and I'm just off the IL/WI. I-94 interstate.
@@OldGriz708 Hey, dont be telling people about our stockpiles.
Sad some of them trucks looked decent.
I know brother.
Probably hack jock body work full of blonde to make em look decent for the derby
TN does not salt the roads so rotters are not common.
🥺🥺 why
I love this truck
Awesome
It's supposed to be stock Ae: run what you bring and tow what you blow. * except for safety mods.
Dang mid fuel tank seem like the engine should be there j/k. Looks fun but I bet they are sore afterwards but that's what the 🍻 is for.
It's not as bad as you would think. Like a football player doesn't get hurt badly because he has a helmet and pads and is expecting to be hit hard. In the derby cars you have a helmet and padding on the driver's door and know you're going to get hit by 5,000 pound vehicles.
But with that said I have had whiplash over a dozen times, broken nose, both hips pulled out of their sockets, stitches by the mile, and wake up in pain every day but would do it all over again 👍🏁
the derby trick back in the 70's was to run manure spreader tires on the cars to get all the grip you could they came in 15 and 16 iin sizes so they were a stock rim fit
Having driven a 76 dodge D200 in the local demo derby for 3 years. This is addictive. nothing like smashing and banging. Trucks Hit a hell of a lot harder than cars do.
Ah yes derbies before slider shafts, high dollar drivetrains, custom rims, engine and trans cradles. Back when it was fun and didn't take a year to build one car
Sliders have been around for 20 years. Doesn’t take a year either, unless it’s a blizzard bash car. Even then, if you already have the shit, it’s literally just swapping the shit over.
You guys hit an all-time low destroying that square body! You could have done something constructive and rebuild it, but no like idiots you destroyed a good solid project truck, so thanks to you there's one Les project truck for a future build. I agree demos are fun but you got to be messed up in the head to destroy vehicles that aren't in that bad of shape. If you keep smashing up everything that's good what are you going to do when they're all gone? and what will be left for the future generations.
You do whatever you want with the ones you buy and don't worry about what other people do with the ones they buy.
@@OldGriz708 why don't you take your own advice and not comment. Truth Hurts huh by supporting them you are supporting destroying Classics of the future!
I'm surprised I didn't see more Fords.
Last time I was at the junkyard they had three Chevy pickups and about 20 Fords. There was a lot of dodges but nothing earlier than 1994.
.........they wanted to win.🏁
How can they destroy this trucks?Even they cost 7000 -8000€ in Germany!
You guys are all ways building some wild things have you ever thought about putting two rotors engines back to back
When are you guys going to do part 2 of this episode ?
Y’all need to come to Utah and watch our derbies they are way more enjoyable
Lmao those boys wouldn’t last no time running around here
Good buy to some classics... why not use new toyota hiluxes instead?
You guys at the shop should all build your own furby cars
As a former derby builder and driver I scratched my head at why did you weld that truck up before doing the interior (seat, seat belts/harness, steering column, wiring, battery box, trans cooler etc) Makes no sense to weld the doors shut before doing those first. Now you all get to climb in and out of that cab to do those tasks. Even more so, good luck getting the stock bench seat back in (which is recommended to use over a single bucket seat.) The bench seat can be use like a "catchers mitt" when making a reverse hit. Just before impact lay down a bit so the seat takes the impact, not the body from sitting up. Also, do not cut away any of the steel from the truck. That hood, if it were cut in the right way, that steel could be wrapped back over the top of the hood and welded down (makes the hood stronger and who cares how it looks.) Outside of those, the build is looking good.
In Michigan we have to run an ignition switch. No bare wires for ignitions.
Talk about buying a win
What a waste of perfectly good square bodies!!!!!! :-(
Hey, let's throw 10 grand into a derby truck. Great idea!
As a body guy from salty ass Syracuse NY, this shit kinda hurts to see all of these straight and solid tailgates, beds, fenders go to such a waste this way
POWERNATION Have you guys been taken off of the air.?
Idk if it’s just me but why destroy a truck
That dodge hood in the back at 6:30
Tommy has done derbys all his life. Sux yall didn't get to derby the truck for the show
Is there a part two? Did you guys compete?
Would put the cage in b4 you weld the doors shut
Poor square bodies!!!😢💔😡
When I got done watching this I had grown a mullet, was missing 6 teeth, and a natty light was magically in my hand.
Nice build bud. Should went ford with Chevy drive train.. but looks like you know what y’all are doing !
4:07
"It's amazing that these trucks even still move."
*Really?*
Note for this I live in Wisconsin smack dab in the middle of the rust belt
I was at my local sawp meet in September and they had a truck derby. Saw a Chevy square body probably in less condition than any of those trucks and it lasted all the way to the rear wheels shredded down to the hub, rear axle dragging on the ground, and frame completely snapped in half. Only reason he got third was because his axle sat higher than the rims (what was left of them) and he couldn't move.
Now that's a truck that is amazing it still moved let alone ran.
Too badly destroyed these trucks that are getting harder and harder to find and there are high demand in my area
As cases of full sized cars are even harder to find to smash up when square bodied GM pickups are harder to find as well. As tips from the sanctioning bodies of demolition derbies to ensure safety when most transmission builders had fortified the transmission to survive a heat when it would still run when the clutches are worn down to the backing plates.
People in Elmira NY build their demolition derby cars 6 months in advance of the Chemung county fair in Horseheadds NY. Some people build a Dodge stratus into a demolition derby car what is your take on it
Modern trucks could never handle this
I hate seeing a dent side ford in derby, love that body style.
Who was the promoter? In ontario 🇨🇦 my fav promoter is thrill show production
I grew up learning to drive on a Scottsdale I absolutely love those trucks. I would love to slam one on bags, looking like a hillbilly-rat-rod with "patina"
I don't know why but I think these trucks just look great and they are built like a brick shithouse especially with a 350 small block
i dont like this sport ...just think in 20 years there will not be any cars and trucks left to derby.
this sport need to use only crap cars like toyotas and hondas..or those thro away dollar store carts known as kia's and heyundias
@@bigboreracing356 it's fine only if it just fords
@@bigboreracing356 what junk is that exactly....you have alot of junk
@@WesleySnyder well that cant happen....ppl running fords will have an unfair advantage
@@bigboreracing356 thats not nice
As a derby driver, this was painful to watch.
wondering if they allowed 4x4's in this? Better traction.
Generally they allow them but with no front driveshaft.
Square body’s bend like limp noodles
damn thats old footage
What ever happened to the low buck bronco
What a waste of a solid square body. Where I live in the rust belt a solid truck like that brings good money. I guess one man's definition of junk is different from another man's.
Where did the shifter come from
My hole life I’ve done derby’s
i live my life one derby at a time
Where is the rest of the build video??
i've running an building derby cars/trucks for 20 yrs. i could teach you a few things.
Rookie😅
I've been at it since '78.... Lol
@@OldGriz708 😂🤟
Whats the purpose of welding the cab to the bed
So the bed doesn't rip off the frame.
Can any derby vet confirm these mods are good?
where's the second episode?
I've done derbies for a few years and for a bone stock truck heat that black and orange truck was cheated I can tell you that right now
What a waste of a good square body
Those beautiful square bodies!!!! Nooooo....
Anyone that’s ever run derbies knows you don’t make as much as you put in
Stoney Roberts derby doesn't let you ad cages or any of the goodies
This is why square bodies are 10k
That truck was to clean to be cut up. No one is putting a fully rebuilt trans that costs $$$$ to get destoryed in 15 mins in a derby truck. Ive seen alot to engine swaps at derbys but not many people dropping a few $$$$ on a rebuild bored over engine to have it blow a ring or melt down when the radiator blows because they always blow. Theres more money in that truck then most peoples daily drivers. Idk if they ever actually crashed it. But im thinking not and they pulled the engine and trans back out as soon as the camra was off because most derby cars cost between 500 to 1000 dollars
Isn't this episode from 2009-2010?
2010
And one question how much did that all cost ya
