    Looking sharp guys. I have plans on paint my son's 1976 dodge truck Leukemia orange as was my son Joe's wishes. He passed away 6 years ago at 19 years old with Leukemia. He said to me, Dad make my truck shine to bring awareness for cancer and use his truck in parades and car shows. Keep up the great work guys. Thank you for the great tips.

We do fundraiser events every year to raise money for people in need and all cancer research. We do film our events on our Facebook page. We are working on getting a RUclips channel soon.

    In 7 years watching RUclips, this truck build has been one of the most interesting ones to watch because of seeing the details of how it's done but also because of the great interaction between you two guys and the really fine editing. And, I'm not exaggerating one bit.

  • @IR-nq4qv
    @IR-nq4qv 3 года назад

    I think the most enjoyable part of this video is watching two people do something who are completely out of their element. Is it Perfect? ,No..., Probably not.., but that's not the point and nor should it be..
    For the naysayers: The truck was built for hauling dirt, it's clean, fully functional and it's all one color, that's all you need to know. This heavy hauler wasn't built for car and truck shows, it was built for a purpose to work in the dirt.., SO..., the bigger and most important question..., "Is this truck.., "Dirt Perfect"? The answer is unequivocally YES!!!
    Good job Mike and Aaron!!! 👍👍

  • @larrywalker7759
    @larrywalker7759 3 года назад +8

    A run is better than a dry spot! I have painted a few Paystars (amongst others) back in my young days, so I can say you paid attention to a lot of details. One detail you missed was you did not tape over the wiper motor outputs. Those should be masked off to prevent primer/paint film from filling in the micro splines on the cone shaped wiper arm adapters. Failure to clean the paint out of those splines can cause the wiper arm to slip on the splines later. Don't ask how I learned this. Overall, this was a well done paint project.

    Good morning sir.
    It looks really good. It is a bit cumbersome to sand and paint.
    Masking is also time consuming. The fun begins when you
    unmask the object and see the finished result. I painted some cars
    and motorcycles in the late 70's and it was always fun to see what all the work results in.
