    What I like most about your show is that you don't try to follow the status quo about building cars you build it the way you like it and you do a great job I'm a self who have been working on cars for 40 years Plus we do a lot of things just to like plus you've taught me a few things really enjoy the show I like the way you arrange your show explain what you going to do then show it in a little higher speed watching you do it gives folks a lot of insight on what you're doing and how to do it great program Jeff from Georgia

    Trevor is lucky to have a friend like you. Being able to work in a shop with heated floors is the best. 40 plus years ago I use to help out my friend work on his cars in a cold garage with just a space heater and use to go home frozen to the bone.

    when bought my 1951 four dr belair. found hair in line carb everything. Looked in filler spot no gas cap. pulled off tank ran water thur it found a hairless mouse in it. was all thur fuel system. ekk puts rocks in tank with water. shook around. the car had say at least 20 years. changed plugs all the other stuff it needed. put back on tank after building carb also getting out all that hair blew out the lines. put in my new 6 volt battery. put gas in carb and tank plus new oil filter ect. turned on key hit the starter button it started right up made some rod noise. was a 235 ended up putting in 50 weight and stp it ran great after that. Car had no brakes long time after got it running. Would use emergency brake to stop car. was tricky doing so would pull brake and light switch also to parking lights so could show was brake lights. Then one day sent it up front to main shop at Jerry Talley Ford and got brakes. Warrensburg, MO.

    That thing ran beautiful and looked real nice after you put the linseed oil on it. I know this truck has a lot of sentimental value to the owner, but if it didn't, it sure would make a nice Sanford and Son replica.

    Always great to watch especially these Old Ford flat head v8, Always loved these old American pickups trucks from the 1940 to current generation marvellous and so simple to work on especially if you are able to find one in this condition, We don’t have anything like this in the United Kingdom or were my family from in the Republic of Ireland 🇮🇪🐶.

  • @bccphotec
    @bccphotec Před 2 lety

  • @MakinEndsMeet69
    @MakinEndsMeet69 Před 2 lety +1

    That's a beautiful truck man. It's funny all the different things you can use linseed oil for back when I was working with a guy building custom signs in Texas we would use linseed oil to brush blend different colors together on signs. I didn't know anything about this being a carpenter but my boss was an artist and he taught us so many different things in that trade. I want saw the Harley he painted by hand for his wife, it was all a Southwestern motif. And I can tell you you would have never thought that that was painted by hand with a brush. Anyway my friend nice Revival and another great video thank you so much. You rock Brent

    Ah I remember the last time Trev was on he had some High-Viz kinda jacket on,
    Those copper floats can be saved, don’t throw it, clean it properly with soap and water , let some water in it, heat it up a little and see where the water/steam comes out, and solder the spot where it leaks (after emptying it out) and Bobby’s an uncle!
    Cool story btw
    And did get a déjavu on the paint on that tank, kinda like the rods that you’re going to paint
