Matt from sloppy mechanics says it all the time about just finishing your projects. Unless you're going to be competing against the top 1% in motorsports it really doesn't need to be perfect. For example him cutting off the stock front suspension lay out to go to a custom coil over setup is just going to delay the project more and the coilovers could've been done later on down the road after the truck was running and he had a huge surge of motivation under his belt to go faster.
I don't know about everybody else but I think you should just put a video up even if you don't think it's a full video we all like watching you as you say yourself you are a bit of a perfectionist
Same, for me it's most of the time a negative tho being a perfectionist... demotivates me real quick with things cuz i like to do them perfect, and i know how much time perfection costs :P
Well i know Kyle said on his channel when they were talking about it. That Kyle would help out with the editing, so that might be playing a role in it.
Love the ancient finger snapper fans in the background, brings back childhood memories of being @ the body shop and helping pop prep and paint cars, This build is awesome Wyatt, keep your head up high and keep on "Trucking"😉 along you have support from some of the best in the industry!!!!!!! Thanks for the inspiration that i can safely watch with my boy
I'm 70 and my only welding experience prior to now had been stick. I'm now welding my 37 with a MIG. It's a learning experience. You mentioned warping from welding. My frame warped when I welded the boxing. Try as I may, i couldn't get it straight so I have cut all the boxing loose to allow bending the frame back. When I do weld it again, I will be putting some bracing in. I purchased a center section from Welderseries as I have no tube bending capabilities. That should help keep things in line, I hope.
HEY WYATT absolutely love the video you are super smart guy Your explanation in the quality of your work really shows No Kyle rigging here. Please do more uploads I am a fan love your work.
Your paint is seriously great. I'm a carpenter, and have seen cabinets sprayed, among alot of other things, You always sand before and after first coat, so that over spray will just be a memory 😀😀. Keep up the great work, on your project, as well as the others!!
Down to earth... critical on one's own work. Wants to show the best possible product/video for those who are there to watch.. I respect that Wyatt.. I was looking forward to a house update next to the air compressor deal in the shed but I will take this. Love the updates!! Good stuff.
Looks good...don’t be so hard on yourself because your probably going to have to grind some of the paint off to weld stuff on to it and then touch it up as you assemble the truck so hopefully you can get that color match in a spray can just to make it easier. Really cool project.
Some people perfection their way out of starting for fear of mistaking, others perfection their way into learning by mistaking. I do believe you are the latter and you have many other wonderous skills. Don't short change yourself. Can't wait to see your truck making some steam Wyatt....y'all keep up on that thing 🖖
Taking everything into account you didn’t do too bad a job especially considering your inexperience with regards to painting tube work. I’m really pleased with the progress on the chassis though, it looks so much better than I’d anticipated so all in all good job Wyatt.
If you hose the floor down before you spray the pain it washes off really easy afterwards. Don't have it so wet that there are puddles or anything though, just wet enough so that your air hose doesn't drip when you pick it up and move it. Glad to see some progress on the machine though.
The struggle of painting cages is real. When I do mine, early a.m. / slow reducer/ knock out joints and hard to reach areas / low air / one quick coat. Then start outside first to the inside. It basically looks like I'm spaying powder coat. Hi material waste and your floor will be covered black. Shoes stuck to the floor. But perfect is perfect.
Paint guy here. Epoxy primer has very poor UV protection will turn chaulky grey. You should real top coat that tube work. Runs dont rust, sand what you can see and then topcoat everything.
I don't care if the video is 6 minutes or 20 minutes send it, content is content your content just so happens to be great, an we all for the most part i think thats fact! we're back watching the latest and greatest on the best diesel C10 build ever!
Your chassis is amazing, I believe it is your first full chassis build. You got skills brother, kudos to you, pat yourself on the back. Been following your build since day one. Keep up the good work on the J series also, that's my JAM!!! J swap Jason.
When spraying bars you can slim your spray fan pattern to be very narrow and then turn the materials and air pressure down a little and it will work much better for you
Steel-It is your friend. Paint, and weld through it later. Great stuff. Definitely would save you from any future motivation deflation lol. Love the progress, you sure knocked it out of the park with this video.
Glad to see another video from you. Waiting to see the great detail that you are going to put into this truck. You have great work ethics and are a really good friend to people.
Good effort man, great to see this rust free and ready for more progress. I love extra effort you put in to get things just right, please convince Kyle to do more videos on tidying up loose ends on his cars (like a whole series of content waiting right there!) Let's say Wago, just cleaning all the interior, all the electrics, trim and everything so he can enjoy it on the street at 100% reliablity. Oh and happy birthday!
Bro you are killing it with this build. The help you bring to Kyle is insane and the videos were pumping out like crazy. I need to see you guys start to get more sponsors and start to take this to the next level.
I don’t know about everyone else but I got so excited to see an update on this thing! Saw you post a few things in strictly race diesels and it got me all worked up lol
Nason makes a over coat spray for epoxy single stage that you can spray over top that burns in and eliminates over spray, I wanna say it's #182 I havnt used it in 10yrs probably but it did work great for stuff like that ! Great job over all tho !
Love the progress brother 🤘cage paint is damn near impossible to get perfect especially with such a extravaganza of tubing as you have. Looking forward to seeing this beast running down the track 💪
Great to see progress on the truck , as regards to the paint, if a slower thinner and hardner is available use that overspray settling will be less of an issue, and with the spray gun itself an hvlp setup would further reduce overspray issues , but it looks killer cant wait to see more progress in the future
About time Kyle got stuck in to help you ! I know you work for him but the truck needs to be the next boosted boyz project !!! who care about about another Honda LOL
don't know about everybody else but I think you should just put a video up even if you don't think it's a full video I love watching you as you say yourself you are a bit of a perfectionist and so am I. Greatings From The Netherlands!!!!!!!!
I'm building a 37 CHev PU in Custer SD. The climate here is similar to Denver. It's semi arid. I've been working in my garage for months and even with the moisture I bring in with my vehicles from snow, it's still not showing any rust. Who knows at the rate I'm going if I'll need to blast it, but I'm thinking not.
Check and see if the epoxy has uv protectant if it doesnt it will chalk out to a darkish grey, great work and you can tell your skillfull in manyways. Id topcoat the epoxy with a urethane or next project look into a dtm "direct to metal" paint. There usually a polyurethane base and hold up extremly well. Im a structural steel painter and deal will alot of tubing projects and bridges and building structural. Youve got the right idea with your over spray techniques its just epoxy that drys quick and hard to keep wet depending on thinner types. 👍
Glad your back on the truck dude. I’ve been trying to figure out what the blue v8 sitting in the main shop went to. I forgot about your build. This truck is gonna be so awesome when your done, and I’m not even a diesel guy. Keep rockin on it dude.
My guy.. you are a brainiac with racecars, can’t wait to see this thing ready alone side Brent’s S2000 you both are great at this stuff!! Keep it coming man
Commenting at the begining of the second timelapse; You're doing a fantastic job at the editing, and I really appreciate the 'Timelapse ends at' info, that's awesome you spent the extra time to add that in, even though I watched the whole thing strait through lol. And that frame and cage is lookin' solid, I can't wait to see that out there rippin' down the track! Great job man, Keep it up!
Im super happy that you are still doing your own stuff at the same time doing the BoostedBoiz stuff. You are great with Kyle but I like to see the heavier stuff you are used to. Good shit brotha
From experience, you have to turn you guns patter or fan down to minimum. And your air pressure down to accommodate a turned way down amount of paint feed and air feed. From what it looked like on the plastic and watching you spray . You had all those three adjustments not turned down enough. Once you turn the pattern down to the width of your tubes ,. It will be spraying way to much paint so turn that down way down to an appropriate amount and then adjust your air pressure down so it sprays nice with the least over spray. I imagine the new gun came with directions for all the adjustments. And you are correct tubing is a pain in the ass, and is always gonna give you some over spray on some tubes. It looks nice though. How is the cab gonna go on with all that tubing in the way of the back wall of cab?
if it helps you out. When I paint i wet the floor. The overspray will lay on the top and dry. After the paint dries you can sweep the overspray off and the floor is clean. Hope it helps and looking good.
Mark my words homie. You keep doing things in the right order, not cutting corners and you'll be one of these big youtubers in no time. That kind of work ethic is almost extinct.
It looks good man it's always easy to find faults but it's not rusty anymore n most likely u still have some floor cage work to do so u could always touch up a bit when that comes around atleast it's sealed for the time being
Id rather be driving something 90% perfect than having something 100% sitting in pieces for 5 years. Lol good work man.
me and my c5 feel personnally attacked
@Ada 7474 mines more of i save up money for parts the shit hits the fan and money goes to that because its more importent like surgery for my dog

I agree with this
@Ada 7474 this sounds like my brother
Sheeeeeeeesh finally boiiiii 🙂
Whens the rx7 getting done!?
Don’t apologize for your set up, u do with what u have and that’s more than what a lot of people are doing
I don't know about everybody else but I think you should just put a video up even if you don't think it's a full video we all like watching you as you say yourself you are a bit of a perfectionist

Bubbles, your editing and production has improved dramatically or am I nuts? This was excellent and I’d love to see more of life from the shed.
Well i know Kyle said on his channel when they were talking about it. That Kyle would help out with the editing, so that might be playing a role in it.

This is one of the most interesting builds on CZcams right now imo
Being a perfectionist is hard work man stop knocking yourself out.
HEY WYATT absolutely love the video you are super smart guy Your explanation in the quality of your work really shows No Kyle rigging here. Please do more uploads I am a fan love your work.
Agreed...Kyle-rigged is perd-near a thing of the past now that Wyatt 'all fucks given' Boi is full - on board.
A mill and a lathe....🥲
Im more excited seeing this truck completed more than any other build right now bro !
I will back you on this for sure!
Much respect to you for doing all this work yourself...the heavy lifting, the welding, hand sanding the cage, and everything... you are a beast wyatt
Your paint is seriously great. I'm a carpenter, and have seen cabinets sprayed, among alot of other things, You always sand before and after first coat, so that over spray will just be a memory 😀😀. Keep up the great work, on your project, as well as the others!!
Need get it finished and join in with the antics at the tracks with the boys
Cant wait see it up and running
Great to see you working on your project, keep us in the loop, no matter how trivial it seems. We here for the long haul.
Down to earth... critical on one's own work. Wants to show the best possible product/video for those who are there to watch.. I respect that Wyatt.. I was looking forward to a house update next to the air compressor deal in the shed but I will take this. Love the updates!! Good stuff.
Damn bro... it's about time you have posted. THANK YOU! Totally understand what you're doing and why it's been so long. Just happy you uploaded 😊
Stoked for you man! This build is honestly one of my tops to watch on CZcams. So excited to see what this comes of man! Awesome work!
Looks good...don’t be so hard on yourself because your probably going to have to grind some of the paint off to weld stuff on to it and then touch it up as you assemble the truck so hopefully you can get that color match in a spray can just to make it easier. Really cool project.

No sense in rushing things and having to make corrections. Looks like a cool project...can't wait to see it run!
Man it's so nice to see putting time into this build again
Had to go back to Colorado for us to get a update lol looks killer brother. We need some more supermoto action, love that bike!
Paint guy here. Epoxy primer has very poor UV protection will turn chaulky grey. You should real top coat that tube work. Runs dont rust, sand what you can see and then topcoat everything.
I don't care if the video is 6 minutes or 20 minutes send it, content is content your content just so happens to be great, an we all for the most part i think thats fact! we're back watching the latest and greatest on the best diesel C10 build ever!
Didn't know you made this channel. Super solid content, no fluff, & production is on point! Psyched to see this build progress...
Your chassis is amazing, I believe it is your first full chassis build. You got skills brother, kudos to you, pat yourself on the back. Been following your build since day one. Keep up the good work on the J series also, that's my JAM!!! J swap Jason.
I can't wait to see you finish that thing! I'm very excited to see you be able to find time to enjoy yourself during this exciting time in your life
When spraying bars you can slim your spray fan pattern to be very narrow and then turn the materials and air pressure down a little and it will work much better for you
Runs are better than rust. Keep working. Keep filming. This is going to be one hell of a truck.
Steel-It is your friend. Paint, and weld through it later. Great stuff. Definitely would save you from any future motivation deflation lol. Love the progress, you sure knocked it out of the park with this video.
All you need to worry about is... it's covered. Can't wait to see the finished product 👍👍
Glad to see another video from you. Waiting to see the great detail that you are going to put into this truck. You have great work ethics and are a really good friend to people.
Happy Birthday Wyatt, hope you had a blast. Truck cage looks sick ! 👍🏽
Good effort man, great to see this rust free and ready for more progress. I love extra effort you put in to get things just right, please convince Kyle to do more videos on tidying up loose ends on his cars (like a whole series of content waiting right there!)

I enjoy the time lapse! So chill and relaxing
Bro you are killing it with this build. The help you bring to Kyle is insane and the videos were pumping out like crazy. I need to see you guys start to get more sponsors and start to take this to the next level.
A man of many talents! Looks awesome man. Keep it up
If it runs it will not rust. It will be ok. Keep up the work. Can't wait to see the c10 come together.
YES!!! Ol Witt getting some footage out! Hell yeah brother, good to see you posting!
I don’t know about everyone else but I got so excited to see an update on this thing! Saw you post a few things in strictly race diesels and it got me all worked up lol
I love how you take the time to do the small things even when making the paint booth
mix about a cup of any vinegar to a gal of water red scuff pad clean and dry as you go. Vinegar has a mild acid that rips up rust
a tiny amount of paint run on a bar still looks 100% better than rust! it looks great dude!
A Florida man now (I know for a few mins already) that's awesome.
Nice paint job!
A run never rusts! Nice work with the paint booth, glad to see you used filters for the fresh air.
Wyatt- Keep in mind that you are building a tool to have fun. Don't let yourself become too concerned with minor flaws. Nothing is perfect, brother.
Nason makes a over coat spray for epoxy single stage that you can spray over top that burns in and eliminates over spray, I wanna say it's #182 I havnt used it in 10yrs probably but it did work great for stuff like that ! Great job over all tho !
Great video Wyatt!! Thanks for the update I love watching the C10 come together.
Hells yeah, Wyatt's truck is gonna look awesome. Keep it going man, life may get you down, but it's how fast you get back up that counts.
Ive been waiting for this for months! So happy you were working on it! Thought for a minute you gave up, but nope full at it. Good job brother.
Thanks for the update Wyatt. Doing a great job. Nice to see your usual super professional video style. Cheers - Nick in the UK
Love the progress brother 🤘cage paint is damn near impossible to get perfect especially with such a extravaganza of tubing as you have. Looking forward to seeing this beast running down the track 💪
so happy to see you were finally able to get back to this one that engine is fantastic and I cant wait to see it run.
Great that you are making progress, just like my house that aint finished yet after 9 years.🧐 Any progress is better than none at all.
Great to see progress on the truck , as regards to the paint, if a slower thinner and hardner is available use that overspray settling will be less of an issue, and with the spray gun itself an hvlp setup would further reduce overspray issues , but it looks killer cant wait to see more progress in the future
Good job you never disappoint. Little tip you can adjust the spray pattern on those guns to minimalize overspray
I dont need a daily upload but atleast once a week would b nice. This thing it's going to be sick
Perfection is impossible but good enough is attainable. Get it running and have fun. You can always make changes in the future.
About time Kyle got stuck in to help you ! I know you work for him but the truck needs to be the next boosted boyz project !!! who care about about another Honda LOL
Awesome job man. Looks good. As a guy who use to do body work sanding and painting that tube must have been a lot of fun.
don't know about everybody else but I think you should just put a video up even if you don't think it's a full video I love watching you as you say yourself you are a bit of a perfectionist and so am I. Greatings From The Netherlands!!!!!!!!
Good to see things moving along enjoy your time in Florida. Best wishes.
It looks good! My two cents is the tig joint at 5:14 looks great but I would like it with a fat mig bead over the top of that too
The truck looks badass painted black! Can’t wait to see it done!

All good about missing the chassis prep. Wouldn't have noticed if you didn't mention it lol. We've all had some wire wheel time under our belts
Man that truck is going to be solid.
Glad your back on the truck dude. I’ve been trying to figure out what the blue v8 sitting in the main shop went to. I forgot about your build. This truck is gonna be so awesome when your done, and I’m not even a diesel guy. Keep rockin on it dude.

You gotta finish this. So much bad ass in the works. I love the 67-72 trucks I've got one, and my dad and step mom both have one
Its painted it's ready for the cab
if it helps you out. When I paint i wet the floor. The overspray will lay on the top and dry. After the paint dries you can sweep the overspray off and the floor is clean. Hope it helps and looking good.
The powder coat shops usually do the prep and deal with the overspray for too inexpensive to be worth the struggle and stress.
Great video Wyat. Thanks for the C10 update.😁👍
Great work, Wyatt! Very fun and calming video. Hit up Bode for a quick paint tip next time.
Hell ya Wyatt !
Let’s Go 👍
Glad to see you makng time for your own build. It looks good so far
I moved from Colorado to Houston and my 4runner became a rust bucket in like 2 months... that humidity is no joke.
Add a little more reducer to keep paint wet longer so over spray will melt in .
Nice work im in Gainesville camt wait to see the finished work hopefully if can step away from work next year ill see it at cleetus and cars.
Great video! I enjoy your content as it gets down to more of the nuts and bolts of the build. Love to see more!
Mark my words homie. You keep doing things in the right order, not cutting corners and you'll be one of these big youtubers in no time. That kind of work ethic is almost extinct.
You were the guy I found first, then cleetus, boosted bois, and stapleton42. Bunch more content I watch every day love seeing you more dude
Ayyee you love to see it bois!
Looks great in the matt black. Hats off to you.
Glad to see you working on it again. Can't wait to see more progress
Ive been painting for 20 years cages are hard.but you did a great job
It looks good man it's always easy to find faults but it's not rusty anymore n most likely u still have some floor cage work to do so u could always touch up a bit when that comes around atleast it's sealed for the time being
Keep the motivation up and get the truck done!
I looks great so far.
