    Today - with permission from the owner - I work on a 1964 F250 truck that had been sitting for over a decade. Not going to lie, I instantly fell in love with this truck.

    You two each gained a subscriber today. When mook got out of the truck and smiled. I instantly recognized that you suffer from the same affliction as myself! My main passion is for dirt bikes bit I like anything that has been put out to pasture that still has a chance. Your content is very relatable. You two act naturally. It's hard to describe. Keep this up! It's definitely unique and interesting.

    In the 1950s, a guy who didn't live that far from my parents house had an old truck (from the 1930s/40s) sitting in his yard. My Dad stopped by the guy's house one day to ask him what he planned on doing with the truck. The guy told my Dad that the truck hadn't been run for several years, but if my Dad could get it running, the guy would sell it to my Dad for $10.00. My Dad managed to get the truck running, so he got the truck for $10.00. This was before my time. I never saw the truck, but I have a photo of my Dad standing next to the truck. Enjoy the videos of you and Kevin bringing back "junk" trucks back to life!

My first revival will be my wife's 1984 Z28 Camaro t-top that hasn't run in over 10yrs. After being fully repainted by a guy that was supposed to restore it. He let it sit and didn't finish the job. So now it's my turn. Keep turning wrenches y'all are an amazing team and an inspiration to all is motorheads.

    Sit home every day, glad to watch Kevin, I do like that vintage Ford truck 64/66 so maybe if I can drive it now and then, will baby sit Kevin for free !

    Hey Dude & Dudette, save that gold Tbird on the trailer in the background. I’m a Chevy guy but I love all old iron. Keep up the good work! Thanks.
