Dude I'm just saying how old are you it be an good video if you guys made an story just like your 1 when you quit your job I watched it when it came out I just what to know how you did it no details just how you where able to do it
Ralphy turning into a fabricator, while Wawa is becoming a decent mechanic. Then you have squeezy as your painter and Marge rolling film. Nice little team you have there mate, with them all working to their strengths
When it comes to wireing that old rust bucket, (you r driving me nuts) clean all the rusty connections. Clean the battery connectors, replace ALL the light bulbs,then double check all the connections.
New to your channel and love it. Just had 8 days off work sick and spent that time watching your channels from start to finish. One thing I would like to see, is that car lift dyna bolted into the concrete. It's had more then enough time to cure. Please don't risk your kids by not having lift bolted to the floor. I cringe when I see them working under the lift when you have big heavy vehicles. You do that, and I'll gladly sign up as a new member. You have my word on that. Again, I love the channel and love how the whole family gets involved. Can't wait for the new vlog. Cheers, Mark from Australia
Thanks for watching! The lift is actually designed to not be bolted down it can actually be moved to different locations but thank you for your concern 😊
It was unfortunate that the seal got nicked. But you worked thru it and got it fixed! The good thing that got overshadowed was your new axles and seals worked perfect!
Marge says You don't need no blinkers, she will just use the Marge Hand. That just killed me! She and the kids have such a great sense of humor. Ralphie playing the PIg Belly Drums was quite funny as well. Love this channel!
as a viewer of puddin's fab shop i was screaming bead roller when yall were figuring out how to stiffen up the dog house! turned out great love it yall are killin the game!
Really upsetting to hear about the copyright hit, hopefully it will be overturned, that’s very unfortunate indeed. You guys are working so hard to constantly make videos, I was afraid you were getting burned out, so it was good to see you guys taking a vacation, even if it was with the in laws, ok I’m going to watch 100 hours of Sleeperdude videos this week anyone with me? While I sleep ,eat and relax you will be playing on the television. More Scooter footage even if he’s afraid. Love my scooter, got a Yorkie too . Stay safe. Careful if you clean the mags on the drag car he said they were magnesium. Proud of Ralphie making his first shive . anyway never give up and remember hundreds of thousands of people care about you and yours plus the big guy is a fan too I believe
Hey sleeperdude family! How bout letting Ralphie show off his welding skills by making a grill for the metro mite. I see a cool tubular grill. Love yall❤
He could handle it for sure ..my brother and I once made a grill for dad's old square body from the cross bars from a dodge wagon roof rack...Karl from Canada
I’m sure others have pointed it out, but that “dust” was smoke from a bulb that’s gone to air (eg. air has made its way into the bulb, which should normally operate in a vacuum). The filament will glow for a very short time, albeit a little more dimly than usual, but the presence of air means the filament will burn itself up within seconds. Hence the smoke, and why it tested good initially. This is super common with old sealed beams on cars that have been parked for a long time, and is pretty neat to watch. Look for the plume of smoke rising from the filament the first time power is applied to an old bulb, and that bulb is guaranteed to burn out in moments.
That thing is so cool. Only thing it is missing is some baby moon poverty caps. Such a awesome build though. You'll get all the bugs worked out. It's to be expected on a new build. Great video as always guys. Much love from Peoria, IL.
I'm sure others have recommended it but maybe consider having your logo painted on the sides. Love this project! Keep doing what you are doing brother!
I suggest that when your driving with the back door up , you need to block the door from moving . If you hit your brake hard it fly forward off the track, and hit every one
@@crazyoilfieldmechanic3195 its just funny you telling a grwon ass man,what you think he should do like an arm chair computer troll,thats what darrens and karens do!LMAO! Congragulations man lol
In all of my car/truck days living (and that's been a lot)) I have never heard a mail truck sound so muscle car'ish! Sweet and hope the troubles are behind you now. Can't wait to see more of it.
Josh don't feel bad or alone about the copyrighted thing, friend of mine got copyrighted on a song he had written and self performed. It took an 'act of congress' to straighten it out and when he called the group that claimed copyright they admitted they didn't actually own the copyright and he said the hint was for a payment to release the supposed copyright. Scammers abound in cyberspace.
Josh, I once had a 63 jeep flat fender pu. I pulled the door panel welded up the many holes, put a 1x1/8 flat bar, drilled holes to dit new mirrors, welded 1/4 nuts tp it, drilled two holes to bolt fb to door then 1/4 bolts to anchor mirror. Never had another problem for 9 years before I sold it;
Too bad about the leak but the ..."Ok how do we fix it moment"was great to see and thankfully the trans came out the bottom so less work was required...great job guys as always.....Karl from eastern Canada
Thats one BAD-ASS mail truck truly gone be a head turner at car shows and conversations starter amazing the time and work you put in that thing and the great family time you spent with them and really amazing how much your kids and wife support and help you
Happy Saturday Sleeperdude and Family, enjoy the videos, see you like the Ford Fairmont and Mercury Zephyr, I found one in South Bend Indiana a 1979 Mercury Zephyr Blue in Color for $2,999 Dog Dish Hubcaps only has 44,000 miles on it
The son looks so much like the father you Got a beautiful family there brother my daughter just turned 23. We used to do computer stuff together that’s awesome. How are you? Have them help you with your car projects they’re really good. They’ll be able to fix their own vehicle and not have to depend on a mechanic that’s awesome skills to learn. They’re so well mannered you guys are awesome. Keep up the good work.
Sooo sorry that Ralphie was not feeling well but he sure is turning into a good tradesman.Love the Metro Van and the sound.Sorry about the Trans seal but I think you're getting all the bugs worked out.Im still hoping to see y'all live some day some where.Keep up the great work and videos.
Glad you were close to home and not out in the sticks somewhere when it let go. Hope all goes well in the future. It's definitely a cool ride. Wish everyone the best getting over their illness. Take care and I appreciate the video. See you later.
I could use dzus fasteners to hold the engine top down and is a quarter turn and you can take everything loose. Great show. I love watching you all work.👍👍👍👍
It's Saturday, it's Saturday, what a beautiful day for a Saturday thanks to Team SleeperDude. Thank you for being such a constant, you are greatly appreciated. Does anyone remember the website for the cruise holidays, please?
Good luck with the next few test drives Josh. When you get the next chance make that exhaust system serviceable with wrenches and not a sawsall. Definitely going to want a couple of heat cycles under your belt before Power Tour. I'm sending you some positive energy. Thanks for taking me along on your adventure.
What a lot of hard work! But at least you have lots of good help--that is your greatest asset! Its going to be reliable eventually but there are so many bugs to work out! This is a charismatic hot rod! I still suggest raising the rear bumper by a few inches, but that's just me. Carry on to Power Tour!
This is a side of Josh I don't think I've seen before. Like I knew he was a good body guy but the way he just throws the tape around, hand sketches some alien hieroglyphics, goes crazy with a death wheel and bam, everything just fits is pretty mindblowing. And big up Ralfie too, he's getting pretty damn good at welding.
Ralphie was using Derek's approach when he was putting on that differential sealer....."That's too much....perfect!" 😂 That was the worst transmission leak I've seen in a while, but thank the Lord, ya'll got it fixed! 😊 And assuming the coolant leak stopped too with the new hose clamp. Awesome!! Thank you so much for sharing and for what you do you guys! God bless and stay safe....and healthy! I hope Ralphie is feeling better. 😎
Marge: "here's the 10 quarts of ATF it puked onto the road" Wawa: "I don't think it's leaking as bad now" Awesome video as always guys! Y'all are the best!
I really dig this thing. That LS engine with the MSD intake manifold, that rear end being posi, the headers, and run off of the Holley ECU, it's just a really good build. I REALLY would love to see some videos of your Starlet build because that's something that I'll never forget. I would also REALLY like to see you build an old Turbocoupe, as in actually build the 2.3 Lima engine and give it a better trans and turbo. I had a 1990 Supercoupe in white (like yours), with the red leather interior and a 5 speed and I LOVED that car. My buddy completely totaled it and I got the insurance money and sold the remains of the car to another buddy because the insurance company didn't want it for some reason. I have driven a few Turbocoupes and was never impressed in stock form, but I know that the 2.3 can be built to make good reliable power. Heck, I build a 1997 Honda Civic coupe with a fully built 1.8L DOHC VTEC engine that made 709 wheel horsepower at 34 psi.
Josh and family wishing you a wonderful time at power tour. I hate you had to go through the mess with the trans front pump seal that and a hose clamp. Again have a wonderful time with power tour. Eddie P. Silverstreet South Carolina.
Awesome dog house fabrication! One thing, with the Lower dog house, it would be cool to have hinges on the far side of that so the top folds out of the way and so does bottom for easy engine access.
This project is coming along nicely... I almost feel like in the long run might be a better option to just run all new wires and connectors for all of your lights... Noticed some of the rear lights being on when Marge was following the test drive but the opposite side wither not on or dimly lit... So for ease of use, and troubleshooting might be a better choice run new wires and connectors with the old original housings...
All I kept thinking throughout this video is what applications are you going to use to prevent the top from becoming a traveling grill? Fireproof insulation lining, maybe a few electrical cooling fans or some modified air duct wind cathers that will bring automatic cooling the fastest you'll be traveling?
Hoping you are rebutting RUclips's decision to de-monetize this video. If you can give them a link to where the music came from and they find it is not a digital media rights copyright violation, they will re-monetize you. Then you just let all of us know and we can let the whole video run in the background and get you a bunch of viewing hours! Lord knows you deserve it!
I truly enjoy watching your channel , and I appreciate your dedication to "frugalness", but I think I would have gone down to Harbor Freight and got a trailer light extension kit for the wires, and then bought a few new switches from O'Reilly's and started fresh. And check your grounds for the lights, it will make a difference. And yes, let the kids do a custom paint job on it, it will look great.
Pretty neat video. That's a lot of work you put into that truck. Life threw you a little curve and you handled it. Nice job. I love watching your family working together on these projects.
Dear @@Sleeperdude In my opinion you should/could put something like the engines that Robot Cantina uses into the Model T. A two or 3 cylinder Diesel with a CVT clutch/transmission. Way easier to drive than with the weird original pedal setup. Or convert the Ford to electric. The original engines are quite lame anyway. Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.
Josh and family, thank you for the smiles today. I've been turning wrenches for 35 plus years and those pump seals can be a booger if your not careful. Keep up the great content. Any plans for the corvette?
I believe i seen the pump bushing has been driven to far in the pump body and is protruding through to the seal!!!!!! There is a lip at the front edge where the bushing goes in. that lip keeps the bushing from walking out through the seal. You can drive it back into the pump body and stake it in to be able to use it as is. Unfortunately It will leak again if left with the bushing sticking through........... Love the build and it'll get alot of attention!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😎😎

The studs on the 9 incher pumkin require copper washers(Gasket) on them to prevent leaking.

Thanks to Ralphie at 40 years old I finally decided to pick up a welder and try my hand at it.
So cool
Welding is one of those things you learn by doing it!
Take this Metromite to the scrap metal place...please!
But Ralphie isn't 40 years old.
Wawa will have it running in no time. You should be proud of the kids you taught so well. Breeding shows.

Most drivers wouldn't understand hand signals and the ones that do would be confused with them coming out the righthand side.
Yep
hay Josh did you know that robot cantina channel watches your channel?
No didn’t know it
A lot of people watches his channel…except me, of course
Dear @@Sleeperdude
In my opinion you should/could put something like the engines that Robot Cantina uses into the Model T. A two or 3 cylinder Diesel with a CVT clutch/transmission. Way easier to drive than with the weird original pedal setup. Or convert the Ford to electric. The original engines are quite lame anyway.
Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.
Congratulations....I NOTICED you have been keeping the garage A LOT CLEANER....SURE it makes it easier to find things.....
2:55 actually a pretty cool commercial, 😂 just with the right amount of sarcasm & fun, you two have great chemistry - "aggressive" 🤣🤣
Third
Yes!
Josh and family, thank you for the smiles today. I've been turning wrenches for 35 plus years and those pump seals can be a booger if your not careful. Keep up the great content. Any plans for the corvette?
Thank you! Yes we need to get back on the corvette
I believe i seen the pump bushing has been driven to far in the pump body and is protruding through to the seal!!!!!! There is a lip at the front edge where the bushing goes in. that lip keeps the bushing from walking out through the seal. You can drive it back into the pump body and stake it in to be able to use it as is. Unfortunately It will leak again if left with the bushing sticking through........... Love the build and it'll get alot of attention!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😎😎
Thank you
