      Yep. That’ll be a fond memory for the rest of his life. In 1982 my big brother helped me swap out the engine in my ‘69 Chevy van. Then me and my gf drove it from California to Niagara Falls and back. We had to change a U-joint in Buffalo, but other than that, no problems. That gf’s long gone, and my brother passed away in 2000, but I’ll never forget that summer. RIP Danny! Love ya, bro!

    No truer words: "we should have done this from the beginning." Can't wait for the finished product. So glad to see brothers being brothers without disrespect or fighting. Also I was reading the comments of others here and found this important info on filling gas cans, metal or plastic. • Avoid the hazardous practice of leaving the portable gasoline containers in pickup
    trucks or cars when refueling!
    • Before filling, always remove the containers from the vehicle and place them on the
    ground at a safe distance from the vehicle (provides path to dissipate static charge to
    ground).
    • Touch the container with the gas dispenser nozzle before removing the container lid
    (provides another path to dissipate static charge to ground).
    • Keep the nozzle in contact with the container inlet when filling (to dissipate static
    charge buildup from flow of gasoline).

    I had 12 unlabeled switches on the dash of my Baja Bug. Two of them had to be turned on before the engine would start. One of them was for the electric fuel pump, the other went to the starter solenoid. Unless you knew which ones to turn on, you wouldn't be able to start it to steal it.
    That's why I think your electric fuel pump switch is a good idea.👍

      Connect some of the switches to the horn and blinkers via a astable multivibrator. If they flick the wrong switch, noise and lights. Then of course, you can wire one of the switches to the underseat detonation device...

    love this stuff. I had a 65 long bed stepside... I remember cracking a brake drum rolling into Page, fixing it. Heading to SLC the back way and having a bumblebee make me go to Panguitch to get some kind of authorization to be in Utah... back in like '82... he said I was a commercial vehicle... after he left the courthouse, the really nice lady behind the counter said he was kind of overzealous and I paid 5.00 and got a piece of paper to put on my windshield... this video brought back tons of memories of that truck... I eventually had it running like a top and super reliable, but many, many, many times, I pulled over to fix something. Love your channel Rudy, you will do well!

    When I was young and stupid, this is exactly how I would have tried to get that truck home! Now that I am old and still stupid, if I had the choice of car trailer or driving the truck, I'd.... probably do the same thing! At least until the first breakdown, anyway. It's also much less stressful when you have the trailer 50' away, too.

      Absolutely true! When my sister and I were 19 and 21 we went to get a Christmas tree in my VW bug. Crammed it in the car on the passenger side and sticking out the window. A few minutes after leaving the farm, the trunk lid flew up (in front) and I could only see through the tiny space at the bottom edge of the windshield. I managed to get on the shoulder and close the trunk tight and we got home fine! We're now 67 and 69 and still talk and laugh about it!! Fun times! 😂

    You guys gave it a good go. After the trailer tire and the fried clutch it was a good call to just pull her home. Great work and video!

    My first truck was a 66 chevy C10 with 250 six and three speed on the column with overdrive. Wish I had it now. This video series brings back good memories.
