How many of you gearheads and gals get excited when that vise grip garage notice comes up on your computer or phone?????
Always!!
Apparently several million.
🙋🏻♂️me! I do!
Daily
Best part of my weekend!!
Inside, outside....redo either-your choice; we'll be watching regardless! I enjoyed spending NYE here with you, Derek! I hope 2022 is a blessed year for you and your precious family!!! Fun video!!!
Happy New Year Lee and family
Happy new years Dr Lee from my family to yours @Out On The Ranch (With Dr. Lee)
A guy sure does love seeing Dr. Lee commenting on videos on one of his fav channels.
Dr, Lee, I love that you enjoy watching VGG as I also do. My oldest son just hired on as a project manager at Bunker Branding. I'm very proud of him and his family. I thought I'd be living in Boerne by now, but it looks like I'm a few years away still because, well, life. Happy new year to you and yours, Derek and family, and all of the VGG fans as well! Be safe!
Happy New Year's Derek
Driving with your son, in an old pickup truck, down some back roads like that is priceless. Great memories for you both.
yeah, if only they put their seatbelts on...
@@coldfear19 don't ruin a beautiful moment.
My dad used to always maneuver his 1979 Ford pick up around the woods next to our house, mainly along the trails when I was 11. Made amazing memories. He even baby'd the bumper against a tree and threw it into drive and pushed it over. Ruined the power steering but it was worth it
you know Derek , there's a special place in heaven for guys like you that save these old trucks large and small.
Duct tape the heater core what can go wrong?🤣
A guy can’t go to town in a rig he can’t afford. Thrifty and thorough. Perfect.
Kinda like buying a wallet with your last few dollars. Just doesn't make sense.
Without gettin into a guy’s emotional trauma I just want to say how great it is that you include the family in all of this. My dad was not a great guy like you
But I bet you are a phenomenal Son. Happy New Year and God Bless.
Neither was mine...but l see they're out there.
Vice i am truck driver,i watch you videos every day when i stop and i am adicted to your chanel,a big support and a lot of gretings from Germany,thank you a lot!!!
You know - anybody that can teach me about Sparkolaters and Lightning Hoses deserves my attention and respect. I think I'll keep watching fellers...
It's rare to find an old truck or any old vehicle in that condition. I'm totally on board with preserving the paint and only rebuilding and replacing what's needed. In my mind, mostly original survivors are much more interesting than 100 point restorations.
I totally agree. Whenever I go to car shows, I walk right past the rows and rows of shiny restored rigs and go right to the old original rusty ones first.
@@kylegraumann8412 Yep. Not that some old cars don't need a full resto, but the tastefully resurrected survivors are much more interesting. Those scars tell the story of their life.
I think you are doing the right thing. Survival vehicles are way too uncommon in today's day and age. I think you should forgo the paint and body until it's all done mechanically and get the interior done.
Interior first,,, just my opinion, that's where a guy gets comfy
Restore the interior before the paint. That's a cool old truck. She deserves a nice "redone" interior before pressure wash.
Great video BTW!!
The happiness I felt for Derek during that back road Tennessee drive with his boy, in an awesome rig was just heart warming.
Totally agree. When Bentley is all grown up you know for a fact that he will remember all of these times with his dad. Good times! Derek has a beautiful family and I love watching them all work together with dad. Fred
The start of this video is why this guys the best
Let’s not throw $30,000 at it
In my opinion has the best show on motor trend now too! 👍🇨🇦👍
Excellent DIY entertainment to rival the best mechanics and the funniest of comedians! You are AWESOME!
Vote for next step: Exterior
Once again, I have to tip my hat to the man with nerves of steel. Give the outside a quick kiss to clean it up. Then steam wash the engine. Then move on to the interior. And lastly, but certainly not least, be thankful for Bentley. He’s such a great young man, and it’s obvious he loves being with you on all of your crazy adventures! Wishing you and your wonderful family a Happy, Healthy & Successful New Year
Dent side Fords are some of the best looking trucks ever made.
The one liners absolutely crack me up 😂😂
Brought a tear to my eye watching the scenery and enjoying time in the truck with your boy..............................................priceless.
I actually said "i'll be dipped" when working on my truck last week. and my repair is holding! thanks for the good influence, derek and bentley!
😂 bruh .. I found myself doing the same changing the plugs on my barra, the back one is usually hard to get out and there’s usually a 10 year old plug of it’s stuck 99% of the time and this one was mint and came out easy 😂 and said to myself ‘well I’ll be dipped’ haha
I’ll be dipped!
I've been using that expression (I'll be dipped in s*it is the full version) since 1969 when a co-worker introduced me to it! Glad to see it's still in vogue!
Having been snagged on the backside many times by shredded seat vinyl that has somehow turned into a steak knife, my vote is for an interior freshening.
Dont fall for this crap.
Yes!!!
I hope these shows bring back backyard mechanics and mullets for years to come
As a retired mechanic, truck driver, with all my fingers, I enjoy watching you work. Thank you for your videos. 😊
This truck looks like Uncle Jesse's on Dukes of Hazzard! I'm voting for interior redo next. Awesome stuff, keeping coming Derek!
Dead ringer for it that's for sure.
Thanks for saving me some typing, + 1 on the interior!
Exactly what I was thinking!
It is the same model Ford that was used for Jesse's truck
Will need a CB radio then too. What channel did the Dukes use 21 or 22??? That's the channel my fam uses ;)
Well a guy has his vote in for a good ol’ pressure washing and detailing video first and a guy could walk us through the order list for fixing up the interior and while that’s on order put the shine on the outside. Just my nickel’s worth of thought. Great video as always, keep it up!
You look too far down on the ol' thought machine up there. A guy might even give ya 20 fresh pennies and agree with it.
Something like that at least. Honestly, would love to watch a full washing detailing video where he discusses the future of the interior for another video.
NEEDS to get rid of all the old mouse deaths and fugies and spores hanging around the fabric of that old seat. Paint can be done at any time, need to keep the little guys safe first
@@Gantzz321
yes sir. one fresh piece of foam for the bench covered with mama's choice of Tennessee suede.👍
Derek you are the heart mechanic of vehicles
1.12 million subscribers! You've clearly got the formula. I'm hooked.
I'm voting for the interior first. Personally I like the exterior to look ratty so nobody wants to mess with it.
Hell yeah! I love seeing down-to-earth, realistic restorations. The kind of thing a guy could do in a modest garage.
I like the way you think. It doesn't need to be high dollar full on show truck just cleaned up and made a very solid rig to be on the road for another 40 years.
I was watching and for a second I forgot this was a CZcams video and not a TV show
He is REMARKABLY entertaining.
My vote is for finishing up everything in the engine bay and then doing the exterior. But whatever you chose will be good 👍🏻
I'd vote for cleaning the outside. That's what folks see first. Then clean the interior. Just my 2 cents!!! Happy New Year to you and the family Derek! Cheers brother!!!!!
Agree
Do the interior first,
clean up exterior
Congratulations, you win the "like lottery". lol
Powerwashing that dirt and moss off will make a satisfying video.
Well, I don't know. Sometimes a fella has ta say something. I found VGG a month ago...just in time, since I'm eighty darn years old. I spent my teen years laying under cars with dirt in my eyes and ears, praying to get them running before Monday morning. Rebuilt the 292 in my '60 ford while on leave. The test drive was across Nevada and Utah and half of Colorado. I made it, but was AWOL about 12 hours...breakdowns the whole way. Lightening tube spinner, ragitator, electricical maker thing and a tradlee or two. It was all fine. You bring back so many memories which, if a fella is honest, weren't all that fun. It makes my knuckles hurt just thinking about it. But still. You know? It's fine. I'll just spritz some juice on it. Thanks for the memories. No kidding.
What a lucky boy to have his dad right there to share his wealth of knowledge on cars with him!
Having been through this, I recommend the interior next. Having a nice driving experience will inspire you to keep going to the finish
Hi
I like your thoughts on keeping this a budget restore, just making it really nice without going crazy. Sometimes all a rig needs is some TLC to be nice.
As a dad to a 5-year-old son, this video makes me want to spend more time with him. Thank you for sharing your time with the kiddo. It's going to mean so much to him.
Ridin round with dad. Precious memories.
I would pressure wash the exterior and engine bay first,it’s satisfying and it doesn’t cost too much. The interior might be a few bucks depending on what you plan on doing to it. Happy New Year to you and your family!
Stretching some blue vinyl over that old seat.frame might look cool.
I'm less than 2 min into the episode and am already so happy with the direction you chose. Budget rebuild... teach those who are looking to do their first rig about what's important and how you can get em back on the road for years to come. Love it.
yup sometimes its nice to see a guy just using what you have in a budget and not just throwing $1000`s into it in the easy way out.
And it keeps it on the road driving.
I like seeing the follow ups on the vehicles you have rescued 😀
This "restore" hits home for me, I got 82' 150 with the 300 in it also and has been so much fun learning about this rig and working on it.
Good truck to learn.
The 82 and 83 were among the best all around trucks with the 300. I had one in college.
My husband and I would both like to see an interior fix up…Maybe clean up the outside, but leave it as is paint wise. Looking forward to seeing what you decide to do!
Derek seems like a really down-to-earth guy. Those old 1970's-era Ford 6-cylinder engines are pretty sturdy and forgiving; they're more likely to vapor lock if they overheat. Just keep on top of the oil changes!
Love the exploring Tennessee, beautiful country
The heater core issue may be that Ford in pickup trucks and Broncos they offered high output and standard heaters, either core would work but one may be a high output heater core. Love your videos made me a big fan.
Absolutely loving this series. I am "restoring" my grandfather's 79 with the 6 in a row, and would love to see an interior overhaul. Dash, gauges, and the storm keeper outers.
I think shining on the ol’ rig would be a good next step. Make her look good going to town, and then do a little work on the inside. Absolutely love this truck and the content you’re creating!
My dad used to say "Fix the things that leave you afoot first." Sounds like a plan in this case.
Dad was a mechanic. Thanks for bringing back those happy memories of being a little feller helping Dad bleed brakes. Pump it up. Down. Up. How she feel?
If it was mine, I would concentrate on 2 areas: Spend some time underneath and replace bushings, seals, etc. Then when your confident there is no issues there, move to the interior a bit. Pull the seat, repair/replace wiring as needed, new floor mat, new seat or cover, general cleanup. Paint and exterior can wait, that is just cosmetic for the most part.
Derek I think it is so nice you are thinking of others in that not everyone can just throw thirty thousand at a truck to restore it. Appreciate you seeing how good you can make it reasonably!!!!
I fell in love with this 2 video series with the 1978 F-100 because I just aquired my father-in-laws 1978 F-250 with the 351M engine, 4-Speed Transmission (with low 1st), and only 140K original miles.
I have not read through all of you comments but you should know this already. If you are using a band clamps on a hose you need to tighten it when the hose is hot...really hot... and make sure you really crank it down and probably use 2 clamps. It's called expansion and contraction....cold is rigid ...hot is pliable so when you crank it down when it is hot it will never come off!!
Exactly how I prefer to spend my NYE - watching Vice Grip Garage. Perfect!
I just gotta say, the content and the editing are both 5 stars in my book. Your channel is hands down the most endutaining one on the interwebs. Your wit and charm and vidja quality are the cat's meow! Sorry to hear from your face space page about all the lost content from the inferior quality digicals, dang! Most of all, the almost complete lack of profanity in an age where even the f word is commonly used is so appreciated. My wife and I absolutely love what you and Jessica and the boys, and even the occasional guest appearance of Brother Krang produce. It seems to be bringing you at least some level of properity. You deserve it. I hope the work is worth the reward. We wait with baited breath for each new vidja.
Totally agree with the lack of profanity in your show. My husband and I totally enjoy all your shows. Love your support from family and including them in your channel. Was worried about your health when you were driving the Rebel back from Florida. Glad you decided to call it quits and get alternative plans to get it home.
This video is one of the best that you've made. It held everything for me that you do well. Especially with you and your son driving down the road. Brought back strong memories of me and my dad. So much so that I ordered an official work shirt because of it. Thank you.
Derek, you are an inspiration. So cool seeing you jam these revivals on the highways. Truly impressive.
Your son will live the blessing of getting to work with his dad on this truck (his truck) for the rest of his life. I'm looking forward seeing it come together.... like my old 41 and 59 did working with my dad.
Thank you for the constant entertainment. The next step in the "restoration" should be cleaning the paint, then go to the interior. Happy new year everyone!! I💪
I normally dont comment but that truck ride was beautiful to me. It reminded me of how it felt riding in my grandfathers old squarebody chevy through the hills of kentucky as a kid. Somethin about it.
This is the perfect series. A feller just picked up a running ‘74 F100, so this is immensely helpful. Thank you and please keep’er going!
This is the best 50+ minutes I’ve spent on CZcams in a long time, keep up the good work.
Im all for interior first, then all the rest of outside. I thoroughly enjoyed this video, please continue with this rig Derek. Great stuff!
I agree interior next, comfort before outward appearance. The truck is a driver now and useful.
Interior next, no the ext. No the....
This was MY first truck. I had a 1971 F100 Custom with a 302 and a 3 on the Tree transmission.
Also in TN and just picked up a 71 F100 Ranger as my first restoration. Thank you for this content - as I hardly know what I'm doing, it's taught me a lot!
Doing this the same way as the white Cadillac; making the best of what you have and doing what is actually required. Great as always
The Betty white, r.i.p
Yeah I have immense respect for him sticking to the channels roots and not just throwing piles of money at it just because he can
Dude, I truly enjoy watching your videos. You're awesome. Thank you.
Thanks Nicholas
@@ViceGripGarage Ho ho ho merry Fordmas
@@ViceGripGarage you can just call me guy. Lol I've been watching your stuff for a while and I've learned a bit from it. I hope your and lovely family have a wonderful New Year!
"Bruce Lee one barrel" That made me laugh out loud!! 😂
Heard about you from Uncle Larry. I just retired from 47 years of industrial maintenance so this is cool 😎
I would start with the outside, I can’t wait to see how it looks under that layer of moss and dirt
Derek, your like the Bob Ross of automobiles! Fantastic video once again! Happy little trucks!
That was my first thought when watching the "Rocky" video. "Sssssst, ssssst, sssst, ssst"
My answer is YES, inside and outside do it all, we will be watching and enjoying every minute, love Ford trucks 🛻
Love what you do on every show….. You are beyond talented brother!!!
God bless you and your family!!!

New Brunswick. Canada.
Maybe an actual temperature gauge would be a good addition. Making the interior a nice place to be can be an incentive to make the outside look good.
Depends how good or bad the interior is. The exterior can be done at any point, I'd want it comfortable to drive...
@WHATSAPP ➊➌➌➊➋➏⓿➌➌➍➐ hmmm, seems fishy.
FORD First On Race Day!!! Hotrod 6 with a 3 on the tree Build. Nothing like driving an old simple honest basic pick-up!!!! What a beauty!! Thanks for all the great content!!!!.
You got one of the best yapper on the tubes that ive ever watched i reckin. I could listen to ya yap all day with the fancy words n stuff!
I love the father-son rides but you really should have a weather-tight travel box you can take with you containing oil, coolant, etc, and a few tools. You know the stuff you need.
This morning I applied my youtube learning and assorted collection of tools to the task of replacing a windshield water reservoir pump. Thank you, Derek, for your share of that learning. While you haven't told me how to work on a 2004 model of anything, you have showed that a guy with some tools can do just about anything. It's an '04 Malibu I bought new for a daughter.
I always make sure the mechanics are sound and move to the interior where you spend all of your time...the outside comes last. Seems like a solid truck...I have a 1973 High Boy 4X4 with a 390 4 speed...one of my favorite trucks.
Ran these old TN roads all my life. Trucks, cars, tractors and with my old man most always when I was young.
Good video. Hope you'll enjoy your new home in Tennessee
This is my favourite Channel!
I love seeing the old metal saved from the scrapper.
If a vehicle survives 40, 50 years it deserves to live on.
Not just the rare muscle cars!
Keep on Derek!
Just my opinion I like to see them as stock as reasonably possible.
Adding a larger rad is always a good idea!
A guy had a 66 with a 300 straight 6 and that was my favorite ford truck of all time. love the twin I beam suspension. Also had a 74 with a 360, a 79 with a 400 and a 92 with a 300 6 cylinder. I personally prefer the body style of the 73 thru 79 fords, I would love to have that solid truck you are working on. That brings back a lot of memories
I’ve watched several of your videos on the F100, I’m about to start on a 65 F100, same 300 inline 6, C6 auto, transplant, was 3 on tree. Has Offy intake and Holley 600 carb, exhaust headers. Your videos give me encouragement to get her running again! Thank You for focusing on the F100, I look forward to watching more of your videos.
I don't care what vehicle I get, the first thing I do is pressure wash the engine, so I can see what the heck I'm doing. Plus I keep all my car's engines clean for better cooler running. Also, would it not be a good idea, before putting all that time, work and money into nice, necessary parts, to flush the gunk out of the water passages in the block...? Nice job though, I live every moment with you as if I were doing it. You've got a wonderful family Derek, and I love the way you interact with your boys! You're nice to your wife too, and that's a plus... Keep your dip stick clean always...lol!
I love the way you use diesel oil to bring engines back to life! I did that long before they started bottling it with all those additives, just for that purpose. The miracle of synthetics has put prolonged life into my new engines and given more life to my old engines, plus made them run better, stronger, more economically, and cooler, with more hp. I'd like to here your opinion...?
I really didn't want to be alone on New Years but when I saw that VGG uploaded a new video, it made my night so much better. thank you guys
You and me both
Go for the exterior power wash, then spruce up the interior, including plugging the classic air venting around the floor. The fixes so far, are very satisfying. Love watching the rust-a-ration! Happy new year to Derek, Jess, and the boys!
There's nothing wrong with that truck. I'm fully in support of your decision to refresh it. I wish we could find nice old trucks like that where I live. Everything that old is always rusted out.
Appreciate the inline 300 & 260 videos. I grew up with a 66 289 in auto shop. Recently found a 61 merc comment with one of the six’s.
Some guy took the CC off so the crank is all rusted. Hope to pull motor out soon. Thank you for you do.
I went to my old HS and they turned our old auto shop into a culinary area.
So what you do is really important to teenagers. Learning about the internal Combustible Engine.
Vgg coming out clutch with an awsome new years eve video!!! Thanks Derek, hope you and the family have a great new year, 2021 was a great year for you, can't wait to see what 2022 brings!!
Happy new year Derek n family I'm enjoying ur content may all ya be bless
Giving away my age here, but I remember that these trucks came with a “high output heater” option with a larger heater core. It was was a must have for us fellers here in Canada. Came with I nice chrome decal on the dash to let you know what you had. Probably not an option that people would go for on a Tennessee truck
u are 56 years old
Lol. How’d you guess
@@boerde6202 lol "legal on the road"
Great video. I like the simple way about your explanation. Keep up the good work. Happy New Year to your family.
@@boerde6202 Go watch some of South Main Auto's videos. You'll keel over looking at the kind of rust he has to work on. When your nuts look like popcorn you know your in the salt belt.
My fav channel on all of youtube, you derrick have a talent no others have, to. Get to enjoy projects with your son is another bonus.
Get the seat fixed for the family God bless you and your family and friends 🙏 ❤ LT says piece of mind
I'd love to see the exterior pressure washed. I suspect it's going to be pretty satisfying.
Nice to see the camera focus is “right on” in the new shop. The one thing that always bugged me in the old shop….camera focused on the background and not on Derek. My vote is to give the truck a nice bath, makes working on it so much more fun.
I miss my 78 3/4 4x4. I am so glad you went with the stock style steering wheel. Love the digital gauges and the woodgrain dash. Looks awesome, and I want it soooo bad! Beautiful job!!
I'd love to see your interior handyman skills next. Love your channel Derek. Keep up the good work. Verrrrry entertaining and informative.
Hey Derek! So glad to see Bentley going for a drive with you. Back when I was his age, shoot, all of my childhood and teens, I went with my dad every chance I could. My dad worked a lot. Never saw him through the week. He worked in a steel mill 3pm-11pm and worked for a contractor trimming houses 6am-2pm. Saturdays he built decks for people. So Sundays were really the only day I got to see my dad except for Saturday evenings and when I was old enough, I went with my dad to help him build decks. More like be in the way. HAHA. Lost my dad to cancer in 2017. What I wouldn't give for one more ride with him. The Harley in my picture was his. He bought it brand new. 2005 night train. It's mine now. My mom gave it to me for as my dad and I used to ride together.
Have a great day!
Oh yeah, I think you should do the exterior and then the interior.
good dad. :)
I know what you mean , my dad was a Jack of all trades I helped him do all the repairs around the house. I miss him sometimes. Been a long time.
our Guy is staying true to his channel’s mission (on a budget), but I’m very happy & proud that it’s shot in a new shop. It’s a great lesson in hard work, opportunity & being BadAss in general. Happy New Year, Bieris & the entire VGG Community. let’s all get it in 2022.
Lol! The 2-lift, 13-car-garage budget! :)
@@shawnrenaud2252 - that’s what VGG success looks like to me: cars parked indoors under not-so-rusty cars, a shop cat, a handful of piston-powered rides for the boys…and flannel.
My first truck was a 1977 Ford 4x4 . It had a 6 cylinder engine floor shift stick . Had a problem with the shifter rattling . Bought this truck back in 1978 . At a ford dealer . It had power steering and power brakes . The guy who had owned it before me had the head shaved I was told . Like this video , it bring back some memories for me of the one I used to own .
This is the same truck as my dad had new only forest green. I had it for years before selling it. Can't believe you are working on this with your sons. Memories
