    It's a beautiful 1980 Chevrolet Silverado BIG10 in Carmine Red. For a northern truck, it's surprisingly not full of rust holes and rot. Originally from Michigan, the truck spent most of it's life pampered in Florida, from a owner in Minnesota. A guy's gotta get this thing cleaned up, polished, and updated if I'm considering selling it to someone who can actually use it and enjoy it. Mozzle bring you along for the ride I suppose. On the list is painting the wheels, oxidized paint correction & paint polishing, interior work, door panels, bed rails, engine compartment detailing and more! Subscribe for Part 2!

    Second, how did you manage to get a vehicle with keys, brakes, functioning fuel system, starter, functioning cooling system and floors?!? I didn't think that was possible!

Started watching when the man rescued a rusty old dero Chavelle, got it running in a motel parking lot n drove it 600 miles home with a chassis held together with Duct tape and a floating front end, gotta say I was kinda impressed and subscribed to see more. Now the tips n tricks of a budget spruce up made me grin n taught me a trick or two, all good, I'm watching more. Cheers for that.

    Love the trash bags for wheel grinding. I made a brake bleeder from a plastic water jug and some air hose fittings. Put it online to show my friends and they thought for sure it was a bong! I also made a smoker machine from a paint can. I am sure you can do all that too but I am a retired 56 yo woman that used to sell real estate and have loved all my hot rods as a kid. I am still looking at the 69 Super Bee. Its orange and looks line Dukes of Hazzard ride. They guy wants 29 grand and it has that electronic dash like I saw you bought for that Chevell. That was holding me back but now I might just buy it if its still available. Thanks for all these demos. I love doing this stuff myself. I am contemplating painting my 95 Trans Am myself. Got all the equipment and more that I need. I love Harbor Freight too. U break it they just give u a new one. Home Depot is not that friendly!

    Love your videos! So much inspiration. I'm 24 years old and attempting to restore a 88 Mercury Cougar Xr7. It's got the typical 302 leaky rear main seal and I about threw up when I saw she has 4 catalytic converters still. She's actually in great condition though, 85k original miles on the motor and the interior is all there and original it's got the red leather and "premium" sound system. She needs painted and a dent or two popped out but watching your videos gives me much motivation!!
