HELP! I can't decide on a color for the truck... the most commented color or the comment with the most likes is what I'll pick! UNLESS it's shit brown, hot pink, or some other horrible color you guys will troll me with.
Paint shop is gonna be like "Cool dude you sanded it for us that actually helps us a lot, we'll take care of it no problem" *Mike leaves* "Sand again, sand EVERYTHING again"
The body shop is going to hack all that body filler out and start over with fresh metal anything other then that the rust will come back through your new paint job
They may use a more expensive filler, but it will not adhere propery. Mustang lab is correct, the RIGHT way to do it is down to bare metal, and work the metal to reduce the amount of filler
@@infernotogo8133Togo when you send shit into paint you get it out. trying to save him money. I would charge someone more if they sanded for me. Maybe that truck didn't need to go to metal ( it does) after he sands it probably would. more work more money
I get that Mike wants to contribute to the work, but just to jump in with a $30 palm sander without even taking off the chrome wheel arch trims is maybe not the best idea
Mike G I have a feeling they are going to look at hm like he’s an idiot... then be like we can make this look ok for about a week. The if you want it done right we’ll have to cut all the rot out..
Tomowenazin I’ve said it a thousand times this guy is a rich clueless wanna be cat guy. He doesn’t build a damn thing. I wouldn’t have my car where it is without a lot of help. However eat least the whole time I was out there turning wrenches and actually learning and working on the damn thing.
Uploads video tomorrow “I plasti dipped my OBS Chevy truck in my driveway *Didn’t Go as Planned!*” and two months later “This is why you don’t do you’re own paint prep” 🤦🏻♂️
@@SurviventheOnslaught Even at Maaco they're going to charge a lot of money if Mike wants all that rust and body work done along with clear coated special color. I've had Maaco paint some new parts and damaged areas. They are not anywhere as cheap as people think (for a fully prepped clear coated paint job). But they are still a lot cheaper than a well known paint specialist shop. But some times you get what you paid for. I've had some bad experiences and good experiences with Maaco paint jobs.
Body work is a damn gift brother. I did the bodywork on my 66 mustang, sand, Bondo, sand, Bondo X 20 more times, and after paint definitely imperfections here and there. My big problem was eventually down the road the rust pushed through and lifted parts of the paint near my door seals. It's a great learning experience but once the pros can take over it will be 👌
Yeah, I just used the one that's like a third of the price of the 3M brand one and it worked great. That was about a week ago and I did fuck up on tearing the moulding off and now there's big chips of paint gone on my door
haha yea i would use one for my truck i have a 98 z71 and the that had it before me ripped off the stuff and didnt give a single fuck he just ripped it off and theres paint chips and all and its bad.....😂
Question. I got my order from inshane design yesterday and it was only half my order. I understand they were super busy trying to fill orders. But how do I call them to get the other half of the order. It was only two black 12 inch tattered flag decals.
When you purchased this truck I wondered why and was not enthused at all. After hearing all the plans for it, I am soooo EXCITED to see the future Videos of this truck. I never should've doubted you!!!! It depends if you want it Military paint or brighter. I think that bright ralley blue would be Sweet Looking!
Back in 87 Chevrolet introduced their new 1988 models. My roommate at the time bought an extended cab long bed. That sucker was like a stretch limo! Rode so smooth & handled well at 90 MPH on the freeway. This was in Texas- away from the Gulf & yet the truck was about a year old & GM replaced the roof because it was already rusting out. I'm sure they corrected that problem by 93. Can't wait to see the finished product.
Im excited for this build because i have a 1998 k1500 obs and i want to lift it and get some steel offroad bumpers and paint mine ao what your doing is helping me out as a reference.
I’m loving this build. I had two of these, a 91 single cab and a 95 extended cab. The 91 had a 355 open diff, slow as all get out but as reliable as the day is long. I don’t know if yours has the g80 rear, if it does be careful about doing burnouts lol. Mine locked up while doing a burnout in a parking lot and tore my ring gear to absolute shreds😂😂😂
Not sure about the later models Mike, but on my 82 C10 I had that same issue with the doors. Check the strikers/pin that the door latch grabs onto, mine were missing a piece of plastic that goes around it. Either get new strikers with the plastic or cheap out like me and just put a piece of pipe around it. I used 1/2 PEX on mine, works great to this day.
ToyBox Car Club thank you I just subbed you !!! And I plan on making some more videos soon. I was so busy with work for the past few months that I didn’t have time to put out the kind of videos I wanted
Thanks for the sub haha. I know I've seen that RS on your channel. I don't remember who's it was though. Will you be at the Carlisle Ford Nationals with it?
I’d Definitely do a hunter green and the 6” lift you can clear 37s with some trimming and the right offset wheel look into custom offsets and check out the gallery keep up the grate content have a 1990 GMC Sierra single cab stepside 4x4 on 33s this is awesome to see a build like this from start to finish!
I got a 91 Chevy c1500 but mine is 2 wheel drive. I researched for my door panel (Which is destroyed) and it was about 450-500 dollars. The door shell itself is about 150ish. The door hangs and wobbles but it still runs great.
for the molding adhesive you want a 'toffee wheel' or stripe remover wheel, its a wheel of rubber that attaches to a drill and rubs off the adhesive, smells like toffee when it gets hot
Rino line the complete truck I did it to my 03 crew cab and it worked out great .... this way you dont have to worry about rough paint or bondo or anything like that.... and its scratch proof ... great for off roading
Big lifts are expensive especially with tires and wheels, steering crossover, re gearing etc. plus labor if you need it done for you. The 14” lift I want for my 7.3 with 40” Toyos and 22” wheels + labor since I can’t do it myself Is like $10k WITHOUT re gearing the axels. Gotta pay to play though💯
