    That's a pretty impressive repair you done on the floor. The frame turned out pretty good too. I think we're all going to be impressed with the finished product. Don't sell yourself short Mike. You've got a knack for that kind of work.

    Appreciate you pushing through those times where you have lost motivation. To us, it's 30 minutes of nonstop excitement. To you, it's 30 hours of monotony.
    Your video content and your skill set are top notch. Love it.

    DP, described you as very shy when you first started YT. I now watch your video's not only for the content but for the comedy and self criticism, very clever.

    Mike I worked on aircraft for 35 years along with cars, trucks ,lawn equipment for myself with a complete house Reno and when you get into big projects you have to divide the project into tasks. On large aircraft with the task system you do a job sign it off and move onto the next and not look at the whole project except for the next task. When I did my house looking at the whole project at once you can be over whelmed and have a panic attack, take a part of the project complete it pat yourself on the back and move on.

    That chassis and cab floor looks so good, it's a credit to all the hard work that you've put in. Think when it's finished it's going to look so good, like the 555 you're never going to replace it, it will have at least 30 years plus of working life left. 👍

    I fully understand the "rut", that's why I have three or four projects going on at the same time. When I get frustrated at one, I switch back to another. Projects don't get done as fast, but it keeps me from getting frustrated. The frame and cab look great - can't wait to see what you do in the engine bay!

  • @SciPunk215
    @SciPunk215 Před 4 měsíci +5

    So much patience. The thought of spending all day wire wheeling and rubbing down every square inch of the bottom of a truck seems like torture to me.
    Keep going, Captain!

  • @rons3103
    @rons3103 Před 4 měsíci +4

    Mike, it's time to turn this dump truck build into the trade-up series. Since Dirt Perfect is selling Lt Dan, it would be the perfect opportunity/upgrade/next replacement for your needs! I know, another DP hand-me-down and budget/smudge it! Maybe he will give you the derby discount!😂😂😂 BtW, take the hood off the cab. It will be much easier to maneuver, plus nicer when dropping the engine back in!

    Getting out of the rut is usually the step I’m stuck on. Maybe I’m just lazy. 🤣😂
    The truck restoration is coming along great and your floor repairs look very solid. It’s a good idea that you did all the seem sealer with all those overlapping joints it would have held dirt causing it to rust again.

  • @KarenL-qt7dy
    @KarenL-qt7dy Před 4 měsíci +3

    Your videos are never boring, Captain!! The amount of work you are putting into this build just blows my mind. It will all be worth it in the end, and you will be SO proud of it. We will be proud of you, too. Hopefully, if people would start clicking the Thumbs Up button, and commenting, your Channel will be able to grow a lot faster because it will be recommended by CZcams more, and that will mean more videos for US, and more $$$ for you. Then, if you still want a new truck, you can buy one. Although, this one's going to last for another 30 years, or more. GREAT JOB!!!!!

    If it's good enough for you, then it's good enough for me. Well done Mike, you are the one who has to live with what you've done. Hope you are, as you said "fired up", then don't worry what anyone else tells you. They are not the ones who own the vehicle, you are!!! If they want a different colour or paint company used, tell them to buy their own vehicle and do that the way THEY want. Then you can gripe at them, 'cos they didn't do it right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bye from UK.

Thanks for the update, appreciate your time and effort on videoing and sharing, looking forward to the next video.

    Your truck cab floorpan is looking great. You're doing a fine job in removing the rust and painting it on the top and bottom. The frame is looking great too. Thanks for taking us along as you recondition your truck. I always enjoy your videos - keep them coming. (In my opinion, the outtakes don't need to be special.)

    @BlueDually4x4 Před 4 měsíci

    Kleeman, out in the woods piecing junk together with more care and attention to detail than some actual vehicle build shops or CZcams channels do on SEMA builds. I completely understand the frustration of the rut and not getting things done, been working on the same truck for fifteen years. Course part of that is because all that is left is the stuff I can't afford to do, even by myself.

  • @billroberts3864

    "Been there" 18:40 back in the 1980s my dad gave me some paint to finish a motorbike trailer that would hold 3 bikes (built in about 4 hrs). Normally I would have used a paint in the UK called Hammerite, my dad gave me some of his black ??? paint and I sprayed it on with the compressor and proper paint gun. The black paint dried fast so I gave it a fingernail test and it flaked off, there was no adhesion. I had to wire brush the trailer end to end and start again (that took 3hrs of brushing).
    One of the lads in the shop had a dog that always went home the colour of what we were spray painting ;-) The dog would always get in the way, I do think he was always trying to help.
    Safety in our shop -we did not have any safety gear just a shout "Watch Out" that was it. NO hats, gloves, glasses, masks, boots just a pair of tweezers to pull bits out of your eyeball and duct tape to stop blood making the steel rust.
    All the best, I wish I lived closer I would give you a hand.

    Hi Mike. The frame and cab bottom look great! It's going to be a nice truck when you are done. If you wanted to, you could probably thin out that bedliner with acetone to make it flow easier. Maybe try it again on the dump bed when you get to that part.

    Ospho is a rust remover and it’s a primer coat, about 40 per gallon and this stuff is like water and goes a long way! It dries as a white powder layer and you wipe it off, and you can paint over it or put your own primer over it! I’ve used it a lot and it actually kills the rust, would be nice to spray that bed liner spray on the frame! That would last a long time! Just thinking out loud Mike, I’m cool with whatever is in your budget!

    @michaelfularz1055 Před 4 měsíci

    Yes I run into what I call the dead zone where you are progressing but it takes so much time and effort.. I just say to myself this is the hard part that after this things will move along as planned and before you know it. The job gets done just as long as it gets done right.. never short yourself cause it will be the thing that will bite you when you least expect it. I tell myself will it matter 9 years from now? Is it going to define me? Nah, I'm too much of a hard head.. and it's ok when you don't feel like it some days. It's your body telling you to slow the pace and not to get burned out doing something.. think of it as a goal and how it's going to improve your progression on other projects.. and you know that you did it right and it will be sound.. enjoy your work.. and just letting you know I understand and it doesn't get any better the older you get. LoL Good job Captain Keeman.. you get there.. hang in there.. you got this....

    Instead of the store bought "undercoat", when I had an old truck I painted the whole thing with roofing tar. I thinned it with gasoline ( the gasoline evaporates) and brushed it on. I called it Tar Baby. You sure are putting a LOT of work into it. I hope it all comes together. I look forward to Monday and Thursday mornings just to see what you get done. bty, it was nice seeing the turkey and chickens again. Got any goats yet?

    When I get stuck on a project I take a day off and go do something fun. Then I figure out what a bite would be on the project and do just that bite and then move onto a different project. Eventually the project gets done and my mood changes. Progress does provide motivation, or at least it does on my diet. 😮
