1978 Lincoln Update/Drive + Ram Gets A UTILITY Bed! NNKH 

Already 11 p.m. in Germany but it's never too late for NNKH!!

Most people have no idea the effort it takes to make this video. all the different camera angles and the drone above in the cornfield. Thanks for all you do bro !!!

I am a fan of the utility of that bed. Give it a nice matching red paint job and it'll look great.

0:01 I didn't agree. I'm glad you saved it. Great content. Everything deserves another chance.

This is hands-down the best mechanic channel on RU-vid. Great editing, good camera, good audio levels, no shaky-cam.

That dap more than likely comes out white, dries clear. Had some I bought do that a few months back. Took a week to turn clear 😂

That utility bed swap... priceless. Now that's a rig!

There's nothing like binge watching old NNKH videos, then logging on to youtube and seeing a new video... Love the channel :)

I'm in Africa, and I love watching you get into it, you are very smart with cars, teaching me alot, even tho our cars are different it still helps me with things I never knew, I just want to give you a huge THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS!!!

Congrats on the utility bed, I know you’ve been wanting a service truck for a while.

Chris , I think that the utility body actually looks pretty decent on your Dodge , it kind of grow on a person. And it definitely is extremely practice and awesome that you now have room to spare and can clean out the interior of your cab. I was wondering how your tailbone was doing after that fall! Awesome ending , I love the drone shots. Beautiful area there. And man you made out real good on the stinking Lincoln! thumbs UP!!

Its a shame he isn't restoring it, but looking at the rat rod pickup. Well I see potential. As for the Ram, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and you be holding it...

Nice upgrade to the red pickup with the service body. 👍

You're the only YTer I'll immediately switch to from other videos. I appreciate the effort you put in to entertain us while you tinker.

i want that car running with a nice black mafia paint on it,i want to be happy seeing that drive on the road,i cried seeing it when it started,just imagine how the car felt seeing the world again,i wished i could really have it,i have a deep love for these old manly cars

I had a similar tailbone injury, if it doesn’t get better soon, consider going to a physical therapist for one visit. Mine gave me problems for months, after getting stretched out by the physical therapist, I was fixed

Gus ALWAYS makes me smile !

Yes... a huge waste of time... just go out and buy an $80k rolling computer that you can't fix. 😀

Service box needs to be either Black or Red . I would love a truck like that . Well done flogging the Lincoln in the condition it was in . Thanks for sharing .

I’ll say it again, like your videos. All the different stuff in them. Keep up the great work!

WOW, that super charged Ford flathead is awesome!

Парень, который заводит любую тачку. Это шик.!!! ❤

Bro we don't bounce back like we used to in the 70s and 80s. Stay safe. Any profit you make on a car is not a waste of time. Keep grinding.

I disagree with all the people that said it shouldnt be saved, i love seeing it coming back to life, keep doing what ur doing Chris Top man 👍👍👍

Ive been binge watching these nnkh vids for one week straight....like a crazy good netflix series... This is the good life!!!

Great job installing that utility bed on the Ram. It Great video! Thank you for sharing 😀

Ignore any haters on the car. It's your car, your time, your money and your RU-vid channel. IMO your channel is one of the best. I watch every video your post I don't care what you work on. Keep up the great work Chris!! Keep the awesome videos coming!!

You never disappoint Chris! I have an idea for a video; NNKH (you), Junkyard Digs and Pole Barn Garage all have tow trucks now - how a bout a meet and greet to do some tow truck maneuvers? 🤔

I worked out of service trucks for many years and I think you are far better off with the utility bed on the Dodge. It is so much more efficient to be able to have your tools organized instead of having to dig through all your junk to find what you need.

The utility might not be color coded but never the less, you are going to LOVE it! I had the same one and it served me well. Esp, less stress digging for what I deed. You won't be sorry!

Dude I'm glad you are ok with your scooter mishap. I finally got a chance to watch the video. Keep the videos coming. Gus completed the video too!!

Once I got used to working out of a utility bed that was the way to go! So handy. I used some clear silicone the other day bright white when I used it but when it dried completely clear

2 things Chris.. 1 and I laughed out loud, when you were pulling the Ford out of the corn field I thought oh he's gonna watch the drone while doing it and not pay attention to that big ass tree behind him, (it was funny when I thought it) and 2 you're going to LOVE having that mechanic's bed on the back of your RAM.. of COURSE you are.. you'll have that thing rigged up and decked out in 2 weeks, all your lines and hoses, plug in ports.. all of it. Oh how nice a work bed is on a truck. So nice. Just needs a little 2 ton crane on the corner and possibly a 5th wheel if you ever needed it and you're off to the races!

I enjoy the thought that this was once a symbol of high prestige for someone, and was considered unobtainable for many.

Another vote for liking the utility body. I can totally understand how Jen and others would think it's a downgrade. Functional is cool for some of us though. It would be cool seeing it paint matched to the truck, but that's a big time consumer for just looks.

I think the utility body is great. nice that its so low so still functional for hauling. plus the slide in for the camper.

I think the box was a great move, as someone else that hates reaching behind the seat for all my stuff that box is gonna be sooo nice. some nice LED light wired to a switch that turns them on when door opens would be the extra lil quality of life. I forgot the name of them but a youtuber name Taylor Ray used them on the storage doors of the bus he got to haul his drift car.

Man I thought my 61 Lincoln Continental was in bad shape but this one really takes the cake.

I think the utility bed might grow on you, it just needs painted or coated in bed liner or something. It’s so nice having storage like that.

Thanks for posting...hope you are completely healed real soon....

The utility bed is crazy awesome! Just hit it with some Raptor liner instead of pain Chris. It’s durable and cheap an easy!!

You're gonna love the utility bed I've got one on my 96 Ford F350 You will never want to go back.

If you have bug in your tank and do a treatment, the junk will clog your filter faster. In the winter the temp will go up and down as there is a lot of cooling from the large rad. Truckers often use covers over the grill to keep the temp stable

Get a PackRat storage unit for the bed portion of the utility bed. It’s great for small parts storage and very tough for storing heavy things on top of it.

THE TRUCK LOOKS AWESOME 😎

Kudos to you sir.. You are one of the few RU-vidrs that consistently wear safety glasses when cutting,grinding, etc. There are a lot of them risking a career ending injury by not using safety gear. Good job…

That truck looks amazing now !

Gotta have Gus!! Lost a very special kitty this week and Gus always brings a smile. Thanks 😊 Your truck is quite distinctive now! No hiding that😂 Utility bodies like that are awesome and very pricey. You got an amazing deal, especially for one in that great of condition! Big Lincolns are NEVER a waste of time!!😂😂

Awesome content as always Chris!. And your hard work behind the camera never goes unnoticed.

love the truck like that! Invinitely more practical, looks unique, used and full of character. and since you still have a preserved original bed for it, it's a win - win. love it.

LOVE the service bed as is, super functional. That white silicone will dry clear-ish, at least that was my experice with "clear" from Home Depot.

Best decision to put the utility bed on the truck, makes space in the cab and gets all the stuff easy accsible and organized! 👍👍👍

Congrats Chris on getting the service bed onto ur red truck. gustman is keeping the home secured.

Fun Fact: The G Body Oldsmobile cutlass supremes, Buicks Chevys and Pontiacs of the late 70s and through the 1980s had spring loaded grills just like that. My First car was a G body 1986 Olds Cutlass supreme back in 1998 ❤ and damn what a first car.

Gus is the true star around here. He's the best boy. As for the Lincoln, you did the right thing.

Absolutely love all your channels and Jens I agree best mechanic channel on the tubes.

Thanks. I have been home, recovering from a stroke.( lived) your stuff is excellent. Thank you.

nice looking paver job! The new truck bed doesn't look bad, it looks perfect!

I just want to thank you for your great videos, they flow so well and the pace is just right. Some other similar channels tend to have the guy talking for what seems like hours about what he's going to do and it gets boring. Also the variety of your channels is just right in my opinion. 👍

Honnestly man there's nothing wrong with your channel, everything's on point, the only issue is that the videos are way too short, could watch this kind of stuff for hours, no joke. Great you saved the Lincoln, I don't think it was a piece of junk, no car that cool should end up in a junkyard crushed forever, it's sweet that in some way it's gonna keep on living. Oh and the utility bed sure looks weird but who cares, the truck is now an utility truck so praticality before beauty I guess? Stay safe, especially if you enjoy scooter tricks

Forgot to mention... Love the channel brother. I'm always excited to see that you put out a new video. IMO 2nd Gen Rams can't be beat in the diesel pickup world.

7:21 p.m in cincinnati! dreary weather,love this channel.chillin with my dog max and havein a few brews watchin

Rippin the corn field.. BEST video ever lol

Utility bed, is awesome!!!! Great video!!!! Thank you for all you do for us viewers!!!!

Enjoy your content. I like how you do what you do for the love of doing it and not just for RU-vid clicks.

Yep no brakes no exhaust fuel tank on passenger seat must be NNKH keep up the great work with your channel ❤👍👍

It dries clear!!!!!! Also, I think the yellow bed looks fine with the red cab.

Glad you're okay. That did look like it hurt allot!! Although your red Dodge with the yellow utility box isn't eye appealing, but you gotta do what helps you out in the long run.

Hey Chris, Rick from Canada, great content. Switching it up is good. The drone shots keep them coming, cheers 🍻

The new loading area has the enormous advantage that you have storage space rather than with the original one. And repainting the part is no problem! Merci pour la vidéo👍👍😉 Greetings from👋🥖🇫🇷

Great video you struck gold on the car! and always great to see little gus.❤

The G-Town Cruiser, I probably worked on that car back when I was turning wrenches in Roxborough

That's pretty cool, the yellow and red. It's got the "fire truck look" goin on! 😎

Take care of your back man. Have a massage and a warm bath. And if you see my comment you may remind the story of my son that broke his hip that you commented back. He is much better today and nature gave him strength to overcome. He is closed to get his judo black belt. So take care again of your health. Cheers from France 🇫🇷.

I loved the Lincoln project, too bad it was so far gone. Back in the day they were fantastic, pure luxury. I think you should leave the truck the way it is, you'll never have a problem finding it in a crowded parking lot..lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣

My dad had a 78 Town Car that was midnight blue, it had the digital speedometer and I was 18 in 78. He let me use it for senior prom and let's just say the backseat was plenty roomy. Brings back memories of the great years I had as a teen.

EXCELLENT PICKUP TRANSFORMATION.

Chris you are seriously the absolute pinnacle of RU-vid entertainment! Well done

Yes "freeze plugs". Truck looks great! Awesome trail/drone vid.

Uncle Buck would have loved the Lincoln! Not sure about Dap, but some of those seals are white when wet, but dry clear.

I had a second gen truck like yours and thought it rode nice and smooth. Way better than a first gen. When they came out, a Dodge engineer boasted that, "Our one ton four wheel drive is better riding than our old half ton two wheel drive." In fact, many guys thought it was too soft.

“It’s not a waste if you enjoy it” love it. The cars you get running I scratch my head like how every time. Love how you just do the bare minimum to get them road worthy and beat the snot out of em and see what they got left. Your approach to original how you find em and how they look. All the rust holes pealing paint dents what ever just the battle scars of an old car keep her the way she is love the approach. There are not many out there that just love that look but I think it’s great one of the reasons I love your channel. You and Jen are a great couple that complement each other. Love the way you jump around and are into so many different things and as a water guy with all the boat vids who else would put a 3wheeler on the front of a bass boat. Love the Furry glad you saved it and love all the work into it I really need to look into getting a tshirt of that. Send me the link please.

I literally check my youtube everyday to see if theres new episodes love this channel keep it up

Absolutely love getting to come home from work and watch a new NNKH video. Another great video Chris!

Keep up the great work!! Loved the corn field test drive. I said to myself. He should be careful he might get stuck.... The next 2 seconds. He got stuck 😂😂. Love your channels. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Thank you for the video. Should invent a central locking for all those doors!

The grill is not Buzard proof, my mom had a 87 Towncar, it had the spring grill. She managed to hit a buzzard while driving and it broke. My brother super glued it back together and it held for 10 years.

A real classic , my dad bought a 62 Lincoln continental back in 1969 . It was a light blue color , a 4 door hard top . Light blue inside cloth seats . For the day that was a high class ride . It had some rusted areas , but a 460 4 barrel . I was 14 at the time . I learned to drive in that car and took my pa test in somerset county in this car . I drove that car in the home coming parade and onto the school football field full of cheer leaders . Not bad for a guy in 10th grade ! Those 460s will run ! My 87 ford camper has a 460 in it . Runs very well . But I need to get a fuel tank and pump back in it and maybe sell it . I am not surprised that your Lincoln runs that well . I just knew it would ! God bless you and Jen and Gus too .

The utility body is great. Consider painting it with color matched bed liner, or some heavy equipment paint inside and out. Also build your box shelves out of plywood.

The grill is made to do that because you have shock absorbers behind the bumpers, they are supposed to go in-ward about 6 inches if you hit something so you don't damage the body of the car

You and Dalton love these old Boats.

I have a 1996 12v as well and was going to change my thermostat because it does the same thing.i probably still will but won't rush after watching this thanks.

Thanks for what you do. It takes a lot of faith to put this much effort into content for monetization. It's only good because you seem to enjoy what you're doing. Most honestest RU-vidr ever. I and my 9 year old son loves your videos to no end!

Chris! We were waiting for u. Troy from Wilkes-Barre 😊

I'll just walk it off!😂 Hope you get to feeling better. Great video as always Chris. ✌

I must agree no video is complete without the gooseman.

ok, slogan for new t-shirt " DEAD BALLS PERFECT" LOL

The choice of music for the trip along the ridge to re-cover the drone, inspired.

There's more where that came from! Great videos!!
