    Chris you are a competent mechanic to be sure, but what separates your videos is that you are an awesome content creator and editor. The right camera or drone shot in the right place, the right speed to catch things up. Even when you say it is all over the place with the video content, it is very entertaining to watch. This was an hour video that felt like 15mins.
    Continued success to you and Jen.

I would have taken the L and found another truck as most everyone i know would have. Not you! Your "eh....it could be worse" attitude toward the amount of work ahead, blew me away. You truly must love what you do and that makes you my favorite to watch and learn from. I have to watch your videos late so i don't pester my truck. I also have my parent's 74 Chevelle Laguna S-3 rotting away on the property, but it's tied up in a financial agreement and i dont know if it will ever be mine, so i just look at it lol. Keep up the great work!

    If you ever have trouble getting it to go into gear those trucks have a terrible pedal set up for the clutch. There’s a small plastic bushing where the clutch pedal meets idler shaft lever rod that wears out and the clutch pedal won’t push in far enough. Sometime you’ll notice your having to push the clutch pedal through the floor, that usually means it’s time. They make a delete kit but I always keep some extra bushings in the glove compartments of my plow trucks. You may already know this but I just figured I’d say something.

    • @prevost8686

      They also had issues with the firewall flexing when the clutch pedal was depressed. Ford issued a bulletin about reinforcing it to stop the flexing. I had an 88 and had to replace the bushings and reinforce the firewall. The clutch hydraulics were pretty Mickey Mouse too.

    Hey Chris, why not get some matching red paint and get after that utility box. And maybe hit the blue stripes on the camper while you're at it.

    Oh man IMHO (and I think probably a LOT of other peoples Opinion lol) you MUST or at least totally SHOULD make that Mustang a featured project. We've been here watching you work on it through the whole thing so far and we all love that it's now all ready for a serious full on Chris's way and what Chris would make into his own "big power" dream car or at least you own "BIG POWER" (LOL I can't help myself) Dream Mustang for the Strip AND Track! It would be SO AWESOME to see and be there watching you make it YOURS! And we all KNOW that when NNKH decides to do a thing it's gonna be done RIGHT and with your own touches and style! Which we all LOVE! Rock On Jen and Chris!!

    wooo! i thought i clicked on an old video and thought "AHH its a shame he didn't have the ✨✨K30 ✨✨ back then to get it out!" only for it to be in the next shot!
    big fan, recently starting working through your videos! you've inspired me to get away from table top engineering and get out into the garage and get hands on learning some vehicle maintenance
    keep doing what you're doing! People like you make the world a better place 🙏 God bless you

      Chris is great and I love this channel, but he's not the hardest worker on RUclips. That honor goes to Jonathan W. I've never seen one man get so much done as Jonathan. I swear that man never sleeps!! He runs his own tow truck business plus does A TON of work on other projects, from giant steam engines to building a new tow truck from the ground up, to swapping engines in old cars, etc. etc........

    The condition of that front seat cloth tells me the odometer hasn't rolled over yet. Those bench seats are usually torn up by 100,000, especially on a hard-working truck like that.

So even though to us the small might seem to be gone but for him it's probably super mouse stink extraordinaire! LOL. You're great finding (well sometimes LOL) trucks and some vehicles worth the effort.

    Chris, you make the difficult look easy. Not many people would've dug that truck out of that forest of weeds. I was surprised and impressed at how good you got that thing to look and work. But, correct choice I think to stick with the handier C30. Also, that Mustang sheet metal work looks SPECTACULAR!! Great video!
