I binged watched all the videos on this build yesterday and was up until 1 am. Just finished the rest off now. First off, let me say you are extremely talented. This build has renewed my passion for builds and I’m looking at renewing my 56 f100 that was passed down from my mother (great tip on the crown vic front end) however I don’t have the metal or fabrication skills you have but I’m diving in head first. Keep up the excellent work, I look forward to seeing many more builds. High-quality stuff you have going on and by the end of the year I wouldn’t be surprised if you were at 100k subs. You earned one here! Btw your truck > hoonitruck. RIP Kb 👍🏽👍🏽
Wow, thank you very much man! I'm glad you're enjoying the build so far! A comment like this is what makes all the content worth it! Love to hear you've been inspired to work on your 56 f100. Lots more content to come and hopefully I can keep inspiring you more along the way👍🤙
It’s nice to see young people doing things like you since all of us old timers are getting too old to continue and there’s not enough kids wanting to learn
Not many people my age that are into these older trucks/cars! Gotta have lots of determination and passion to get them working right! Gonna try and keep them alive for the younger crowd🤙
I like the Camaro style front lip. The side skirts would looks cooler if they were more boxy with some dual exhaust tips on each side. Rear spoiler is mint!
Thank you very much man! Glad your enjoying the build👍 thanks for the input! My plan is just to have them poking through a little bit but again the plan could change before I'm at that point haha!
Excellent build so far! With all do respect, it does not matter what anyone else thinks or has to say, this is your build and your doing all the work yourself on your dime! I'm doing a 1970 Nova build and in the very first video I stated I doing the build my way! Your doing an amazing job, forge ahead my friend!!!
This is sick bro don’t listen to anyone else the modern race truck is better then any other new truck designs I like the kit and the wing I would do a roff wing and back window wing as will so Suttle to bring in the aero lower cut the air look the like 1-2” inch keep the turbos in the hood no cut outs even mini tub looking double hump loovers to cover them
Awesome build!! I’m just 30mins from u & can’t wait to see the finished product! Very impressive for younger fella 🤙🏻 lots of talent in Clare! Will be following 🍻
I like that “trans am” look on an early model Chevy trucks and the 67-68 is the perfect year. I’ve only ever saw one in my years of truck building. Maybe a “defuser” type of rear roll pan would really set your truck apart. Awesome job!
What I absolutely love about this build is how you keep the simple clean oem + looking body lines! I think everything is looking fantastic! I hope you decide to keep the turbos under the hood though 😶
It's always a delight to watch your awesome videos. Excellent vision, execution, and video documentation. Very educational and fun! You need a sponsor.
Ground kit looks awesome , why don’t you , do away with the vent windows on side glass , will give a cleaner appearance , I hate vent windows on old vehicles , I had them on my 66 nova and always hated them , just a suggestion , enjoy watching 👍👍👍
Thank you! The raw metal does look good but the metal itself is very thin and in rough shape. I think it will look a bit better all fixed up but thank you for the input! We'll see what happens🤙🤙
I am LOVING that splitter for this look!! Can't wait to see the turbos popping through, as well as the satin finish black 🫠 dreams really DO come true! 🤣 Thanks for sharing this process with us. 👍🏼You're killin it
Wasn’t sure but in the end ya it looks great, especially the front splitter and rear spoiler, it all ties in nicely for sure, always fun to watch, tu fais une frigen bounne job👍
Coming along fantastic. I'm working on a spoiler and splitter for my '65 Mustang and sorting out exactly what I want, that suits the style of the vehicle is super difficult. I think you really captured the style of your truck well.
I love your build! I’m going to do a similar 70 C-10 but make it unibody. I don’t really have time to make a chassis, so I’ll build it on a cop car frame
Should find way to incorporate the bow tie in the splitter even though many won't see or notice it but when at car show ( sure this beauty will be at a few ) then it would be that little touch that true bow tie lovers ( my self ) will appreciate
I like the OEM but cleaned and updated look. Not a fan of the aero ideas, but agree that you can do what you want with the truck and the vision is a strong one.
Yoooo!!! Alec, you killed it bro!!!! The truck is looking even better!! The music and edit and flow of the video was 🔥 🔥 Cant wait to see the next video bro, Turbskis popping out the hood 🐌 will top off the insane look!!! Keep crushing it bro!!!
I just watched the entire playlist up to this point... What a trip! i've never seen someone build so much of a truck with cardboard. Props to you brother, as one canadian to another. seriously impressive. Now i am going to throw out some ideas for you. Roll cage that goes through the cab, and has two supports that go down to the frame in the bed. (typical truck roll cage) but mount the radiator/trans cooler on the back of the roll bar with electric fans. Also it would be very eye catching. Maybe run copper hard line along either side of the frame rails from the engine bay to just below the bed then convert to 20AN with flexible line on the radiator/engine side. I mean, its not like you don't have a massive amount of room upfront.. but if you pack everything in there alongside two turbos you should definitely do some louvers in the hood. but it will let rain get into your engine bay... so there is that.. curious what your plans for the engine are, i am currently building a single turbo LQ4 for my C10. Looking for 700rwhp daily, should be achievable on pump gas, maybe need meth injection for higher boost...
Awesome! Thank you for the advice🤙 I am going to integrate a roll cage that will mount to the rear frame. I've thought of putting the radiator back there but I think it will be tight with the cage + driveshaft + crossmembers so I may have to put it up front! My exhaust is going to come out of the hood and I may put louvers as well🤙 I'm doing a stock bottom end lq4 with a twin 67mm turbo set up. I'm aiming for around the same amount of horsepower as well but will turn it up in the future to see how long these stock bottom ends last
I think you should challenge yourself a bit more and make the hood and rear wing out of carbon fiber. After watching this entire build in a day I’m certain that you could pull it off.
With that I would match the front splitter and side skirt’s with the body color, I think it would flow much better and retain a somewhat “factory” style without looking like a bunch of bolted on parts. That being said she’s your baby and I’m certain whatever you decide it will look amazing.
I would love to do Carbon fiber parts, I just have no experience with that and I'm sure it's probably a bit pricey. I'll check it out for sure though!👍 thank you!
i think you should do a simple but big front splitter and also i think black color matches good with bare metal. and one thing i watn to mention is that quality of your videos going straight up (editing skills, shots and stuff like this).
Ok, "Insane"...... small roof-scoop like McLarens or roof spoiler like the 1969 Javelin/AMX...Yeah and tie in the side skirts to the outside wheel wells, like gravel flaps. And yeah, I do like those old school Can Am style Camaro front spoilers. White and flat black will really nice! Can't wait till you get the engine ready to drop in!
I'm gonna mock that up next time I'm in the garage! I'm intrigued lol! For sure, I'll have it all tied together when I make it out of steel👍thank you, I can't wait for that moment either!
