Rebuilding a rolled over Chevrolet Silverado the cheap way

- It is time to start a new build. It is hard to find rust-free trucks near me so I drove to Arkansas to find one. I found the worst color combo available so it might look a little different when it is done. Let's see if we can get it running and get started on fixing it. Oh yeah, I want to fix it for less than $1000 in parts. I hope Scott's GM truck emporium will sponsor me!

The best rebuild channel on youtube
Showing real things done to real cars anyone can afford
I have better luck selling a 20 year old truck than a Lambo, so it works out! 😂
This is amazing! This was my truck. I was the only owner, bought it brand new in 2002 and drove it until my 17 year old son rolled it! Are you gonna sell it? Or keep it?
We have some before pics and some 'afters' too.
I had no idea Chevrolet made a "flat top" edition of these trucks. LOL. Thanks again for another fun build, Scott.
It was an effort to improve fuel economy! 😂
@@vehcor the body structure is quite a flip flop but you will make it better than new - amazing work you deliver
Scott is back at it again! Best quality builds on the Tube. Looking forward to this build. Keep up the Great work Scott!
Thanks, for the support!
i cant wait to see you work on the mustang again!
Gteat to see you rebuilding those GM trucks all the other stuff is good but for some reason I don't think anyone knows those trucks better than you
keep those builds coming !
I love Vehcor's channel as an avid automotive enthusiast and mechanic myself I find his videos are educational, informative, and relaxing..... His skills paired with the vast knowledge and dry humor he adds to the channel makes his videos the golden content that I've come to know and love over the past few years... Keep pumping out that quality content, amazing stuff man!!!
No step for a high stepper. You make it look so easy and not one foul word. Hats off to the master.
You really outdid yourself this time Scott, thanks for the laughs and the great start of the weekend.
Its good to see you revive these old trucks and put them back on the road. You should really be teaching repair shop classes to the bad hacks out there.
You literally roll the dice when pulling trim, it's 50/50. I can't wait to see where you attach the roof and rear cab panel, me I would do the complete rear cab panel and cut the front pillars for an adjustment on the windshield
I know longer do collision repairs after 37yrs. so I really enjoy your repairs and sometimes comical comments and explanations. Keep em Coming Scott
That's awesome your saving this one and its red too!People really dont know how rare regular cab shortbed 4x4s are and they are by far the best looking.Too bad this one isnt 5 speed manual,that's only thing that would have made it better.
I own a 2010 model year of this build sheet. Mine is a Z71 RCSB just like this one is. Yes, you are right. They are rare.
Whoa, random! My parents used to own a restaurant in Morrilton, AR. Worlds colliding!
Just got home from Portsmouth, NH. Fought traffic all day. Thank goodness Scott I had a great unwind video tp watch. Great rebuild this is gonna be. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and be well.
I love how you pick up cars from my younger days... wait. Oh we are the same age! Awesome.
Morrilton Devil Dogs. That made me smile. Greetings from Arkansas...
Love the 99-07 Silverado content!
Easy to work on, easy to sell. I like them too!
The windshield removal tool may not be standard procedure for safelite, but it is for volunteer firefighters when they extricate patients. Love the content. My dad rebuilt vehicles for 40 years, so watching these videos takes me back to my childhood of watching him take something like this or any other vehicle you have done and make it look brand new.
I only live in Illinois because family is around here, otherwise I'd be in a snowless location. Have bought many cars from Arkansas and the south because "no rust". Rust sucks big time and why pay for it if you can drive a few miles south and not have to deal with it. Most of the cars I've bought in AR have had razorback decals on the rear window. Go Hogs! Always look forward to your rebuilding videos!
Did this sort of work with my dad back in Australia for many years. Love what you do and how you go about it. Look forward to your video's every week. Awesome stuff
Did you see the Monaro ( GTO) bodyshell in the background at 4:42 ?
Im happy to see someone fixing such an old truck its in to nice of shape anyways to just scrape it
Literally to the 1% who's reading this, God bless you, and may your dreams come true, stay safe and have a wonderful day.
Ran across your video and recognized the scenery. What a small world!
This is gonna be a very interesting build. The average working man truck. I wish you could find more of these to do.
I never saw a windshield cut out with a Sawzall before, but I like it!
Good to see another GMT800 on the channel. Love these trucks. I have like 4 of them waiting to be fixed. Pretty easy to work on and they sell well.
Your window removal skills are excellent.
I will include this video on my resume for Safelite. 😂
9:00 The "Road Test" is a very good idea, I was thinking about where the engine oil goes when the truck was upside down and how long it kept running. I also like how you drove down what looks like the main street in town. Nice! Looking forward to the build, as always.. 💪
That casually “missed a gear” @17:15 had me rolling, love the great sense of humor you get to in your videos
I love how you have identified a solid market space. Get "rust free" fixable wrecks for peanuts, put some time and peanuts into it and sell it for a pallet load of peanuts. You be making money where few dare to tread.
Scott is a class act!! His work is flawless and 100% done correctly. I wish there were more craftsmen like him. Thank you for your videos.
Dang. I bet this is already sold. Looks like video from earlier in the year. Love to have this vehicle👍
Your always making me laugh with your dry sense of humor or sarcasticness. Love it!!!
Always fun to watch you win, not that it would be any other way. See you next Friday.
The “Identifies as” part was golden 🤣
I’m amazed you can straighten that roof out. Thought you were going to cut it off and replace it. Looking forward to the next episode.
Another "GREAT" production Scott! Amazing vehicle condition from a "rust-free" state even if it has a few hard miles on it. Surely when you finish up
it'll be "Better than NEW" Have a great weekend and a relaxing Labor Day! 😎
Always good to hear squidward had a good day car pickin!
I’m late. My son was born on Wednesday and I’m just getting back home. But I’m here now!
I love seeing you save these old gmt800 trucks. I do the same thing, I just dont record it
A bit surprised to see you fixing the cab not replacing it or at least the roof section.
Nice job finding that one! They are kind of rare. I had its twin but better looking sister, 2002 RCSB Z-71 4.8 with a 5 speed in dark green. I loved that truck, it is one of the few I regret letting go of.
I drove my 1976 Sierra 2500 home after rolling it. 28 miles without a front and rear wiindshield. Had it fixed and drove it for another 4 years before selling it.
3:24 Truck's got great aerodynamics.
Fuel economy! 😂
One of my favorite channels
Really looking forward to watching this build series. Should be very interesting as the previous ones always have been.
Not sure why when I started watching this I thought it was going to be a one video rebuild. I guess I'm just use to Scott's efficiency. Can't wait to see it done.
Look forward to your shows. I still say you would make a great instructor.
We’ll see, I have a new gnome in training now!
My son wants to be a diesel mechanic, but he’s really interested in body work now. He will be going to shop class next year so we shall see!
I thought for sure you were replacing the cab. Looking forward to the fix on this one. Should incorporate the pizza girl in more videos!
Why
hands down the best rebuild channel on the net
"missed a gear"
lol
Can you imagine seeing that drive past you on the road? They probably thought he had just rolled the truck and was fleeing the scene of an accident. 😂
It's so satisfying watching you tear stuff apart. I don't know why.
It’s my favorite part of any build!
sometimes I think you do these rebuilds just to see how many people you can trigger. I love it.
2-door short beds are like hens teeth around here. Looking forward to this build!
Nice build Scott, looking forward to the cab work, can you please show some of the painting gnomes work in the spray booth.
i second that motion
I’m not around when they are.
I certainly enjoy watching your expertise! You sure have the knack!
Scott you’re a hero wanting to rebuild a truck with so much damage looking forward to this one, hi from Ireland
Hello
Good old downtown Lemont nice to see it on tv lol
This is why I look forward to Friday.
Another Awesome video. Action packed!
Please hit that 👍👍
Thanks for the support!
Real cars, real rebuilds and real hard work. Thanks. 👍
Scott, I have to break my usual silence today to say: You are one funny man! I've been meaning to comment this to you for quite a while now, so here it is. Check!
Here in Florida you can register a lawn chair with a rocket zip tied to it, so that truck is actually quite fine - no repairs needed.
if you don't believe this, track down the Vice Grip Garage video where he buys a '67-sh AMC from Cleetus McFarland that somebody had set the engine back into the front seat. Sketchy as all hell but Derek did try to drive it home. True Florida Man car.
“You can register a lawn chair with a rocket zip tied to it”.
-Wile E. Coyote has entered the chat 😂
Great looking truck. Just some small dents, a few new plastic parts, some pulling and pushing and after installing the glass and new tires it's ready to roll. Love it!
I don’t think he wants to roll it again...🤣
Fantastic video as always Scott! Thank you for showing your process in such great detail!
The scream unloading the trailer is so funny! Thank you for making great videos!
Scott as always...awesome video great work.
Enjoy your videos--great job! Had to laugh; back in the mid 70's started my first job, traveling all over the state of AR to rural communities. First thing I noticed was that everybody drove short bed pickups (this was before the days of crewcabs) instead of our long bed pickups we were accustomed to on the farm in MO. And a bunch of then in Eastern AR, in the rice area, were 4WD. Maybe it's the same today.
I don’t comment that much on here but really like these rebuild series! Love your videos man! Be watching for the next one!
Haven't you heard? Experts know everything.
What a pleasant surprise to have your video to watch on this Saturday morning! Our Springboks are playing Australia later this morning, as they are about 6 hours ahead of us here in South Africa.
Hey that’s basically my truck (mine’s the GMC flavour)… and mine isn’t smashed up….yet😁😁😁😁…. Nice to see a build so close to home so to speak!!!! Be waiting for this one..
Nice Pontiac GTo body shell in the background at 4:42 . That would go for crazy amounts of money in Australia, where it is originally from, as a Holden Monaro.
I like his teardown method and comments.
Looking forward to future videos
The “safelight repair, safelight replace” had me DYING
I just said what was going through my head as I did it! 😂
This video kind of applies to my regular cab '89 GMC pickup... a tree fell on it last winter and caved in roof. It's not as bad as this one though, it didn't break any of the glass and the doors still open. It fared better than my '79 Trans Am that was parked next to it.
It will be interesting seeing you repair that cab. More usual to replace it.
Yeah, but the chances of finding a rust free cab that doesn't cost and arm and a leg are slim to none.
3:04 AAAAHHHHHHHH never gets old!
I just noticed the Morrilton sticker on the back glass that truck is from the town over from me. Crazy small world
What! You actually used a vacuum. I'm surprised you know how to use it 🤣🤣 good job Scott
@15:08.........I was waiting. I couldn't believe you didn't pocket the quarter as you pulled the seat. LOL.
I can’t give away all my rebuilding secrets like where my real money comes from…. the change in the rebuilds. 😂
very enjoyable sunday evening watch after arthur who threw his scrap into the pile tonight.........
Looks bloody cold there. Better you than me Gungadin.
We would love to have you here in Arkansas! ;)
The best thing about that year range of truck is you could upgrade completely and put power heater leather seats with just a couple plugs
Almost 200K Dude lol very well done! I remember the old days hahaha
Learned something today... Had no idea the single cab trucks had speakers in the B Pillars...
Did that front wheel drive in my 88 ranger when the u joint went out only had to drive 25 miles to home and fix it up, really fun when you use your belt to hold up the drive shaft.
Such a good little truck, definitely worth saving! Cool build, looking forward to seeing it done
Good stuff Sir. Best videos on CZcams that I know about.
Thanks for the support!
“$5000 I know what I got” this was fun to watch lol
By this point you have become the master with GM headliners.
I am an expert and in my opinion this is going to be a cool build!
You should of see my truck after it rolled. had to replace the grill f. bumper the entire door, hood, wins screen the bed itself r. bumper lights front and rear. not to mention tweaking the frame back to being strait in all around 6k in damages and the hoods still doesn't close right. all for a truck thats worth 1k to the insurance company. still worth it I love that truck and I will continue to poor money into it
I've ALWAYS wanted a short bed, single cab Chevy truck! Would be even better to have a fire engine red one!!! 🙂
Last trip to the shops was a wild ride. Looks like every panel took a hit.
as usual, very entertaining , thank you Scott...
Dam he went dukes of Hazzard though the window lol
Thanks for showing this truck... I have a truck modified by a 4' oak tree which got the bed and cab... Not sure what the body man has in mind, but I like what you are doing and will follow the build. You are interesting and keep it real...
I am very excited about this new project these regular cab trucks are my favorites 🤠🇺🇸🇺🇸
Kool truck. Only 2 things I see wrong with it is that it's RED and there's carpet in the darn thing. Other than those 2 things I'd even drive it.
Great video Scott. Might want to teach PIZZA GIRL how to carry those sears. The way she started out, don't think she would of made it very far.
I'm looking forward to the build where Pizza Girl does all the work and you sit back and watch. I'm sure there'd be several CZcams haters telling her what all she done wrong.
Take care.
First time watching this channel. The narration is spot on. Well done
Love when another 800 gets saved!
Sad though its a 99-02 and not the cat eye lol
I really like your channel because you work on normal cars not high end that regular guys like me can't afford
