In this episode I cut the side of Smokey off and and get closer to being able to rebuild the cab. Dad gets the deck ready to come off Stubby but it doesn't go quite as smooth as we had planned...

@mikethetrucknut Год назад

He's a rock star 👍

@mambofred7625 Год назад

Father and son teams are what the world is missing. Tim Gentry works with his dad, too. It's like an A team thing. Just saying is all.

@kwshilts Год назад

It is always a pleasure to you and your dad to work together as a team. 3 Cheers to you Mike for giving your dad Stuby. That will keep him active and working together as a team.

@richardhoneywell7411 Год назад

@bostedtap8399 Год назад

Great teamwork Father and Son 👍👌. Surprising how complicated the cab build is? Great work and thanks for sharing

@russelltrupia4479 Год назад

Awesome video Mike you and your Dad make one heck of a team. Thanks for the compliment Mike I'am a 76 year old re-tired trucker myself.😊👍👍

@neilmcintosh1200 Год назад

Now you guys are really moving. I'm so glad your Dad has taken Stubby out of the doldrums.

@jamesallen712 Год назад

The work your Dad is doing on Stubby is great. The frame also doenst look too bad. Pleased to see he's getting some attention. As for Smokey. WOW. That was a job to get that panel off. Hope you can ge a replacement easy enough or something made up to fit. Going to be interesting to see how the fibreglass bit comes together.

@rogerwright5585 Год назад

You’ve got snow up to the windows and I cut my grass yesterday. Huge difference in weather from BC Canada and TN USA. 😂. Great job on getting the panel off. One major hurdle accomplished.

@mikethetrucknut Год назад

I would move there in a heartbeat if I could make the same living there .

@matti353 Год назад

Your dad is just great…👍

@mikethetrucknut Год назад

I think so too!

@bigpaulrc3531 Год назад

Hi Mike from Yorkshire England you have a lot of work cutting the cab apart seeing you and your dad together reminds me of my dad rest in peace dad

@stevemcnally7655 Год назад

Love the video Mike. Love your methodical approach to something as daunting as the cab repair but you've reduced it to what it is, some aluminium sheet and some fibreglass. In that way it is much less daunting. Great logic and enjoyable watching. Must be very rewarding to see things coming together. I'll be watching every minute.

@alvinpowell6189 Год назад

It’s really good to you and your dad collaborating on the trucks! Your dad’s logic is sound because of experience. He is a good guy, love seeing him in your videos!!

@mikethetrucknut Год назад

So true!

@nelsonmattoon150 Год назад

Smokey going to look nice when you get it done

@timatwell3728 Год назад

Mike is there a metal supply sales/ shop near you if so take the panel to them have them cut you a new panel out of a 4'X8' sheet of metal I would go back with 16 gauge cold roll steel be cheaper and I would leave the vent out of the new panel less holes the better JMO but love seeing you and your dad working together that will keep him going he's use to being busy so let him do all that he wants to do keeps him young at heart but y'all stay safe and keep the video's coming

@chriswilkin2112 Год назад

Great job Mike, the pride on your Dads face watching you work is wonderful. Pretty soon the only thing Smokey on Smokey will be his exhaust on a cold start. 💯💯💯

Hello Mike …..Mike from Cleveland Ohio! Truck is coming along,it’s going to look beautiful when you are finished!

@RoadRunnergarage8570 Год назад

Your Dad is making great progress on stubby...

@k100resto_uk Год назад

You just need a 3.5mm drill bit to drill the rivets out Mike. They are probably 3/16 (or 4.8mm) so once you are through you wiggle the drill about and bingo!

@JamesPretty Год назад

@holdenbrougham1056 Год назад

Hi Mike and Dad ,, stubby deck can be made into tray deck for back of your tractor , just put jib attachments on it to suit tractor ,, beats making use less scrap now it's practical again ,, hope you guys see my visions

@mikethetrucknut Год назад

That's a really good idea

@michaelhall3568 Год назад

@holdenbrougham1056 Год назад

I've being restoring an 1982 white road boss with big cam Cummins 400 , and I've rebuilt entire chassis from back of gear box all the way to back inside ŕails removed for severely rust jacked , outta rails not so bad , had new inner rails pressed and folded then we drilled out all the 42 holes a side at 3/4 inch using the magnet drill , now that's a drill , this drill had all 84 holes done in hours time ,, now try it with a normal drill and you might get 3 hours done in a hour if your not worn out 1st

@charleswilcher2388 Год назад

Great video Mike you will get her done I belive in you bro

@xeboi11 Год назад

Excellent progress Mike 👍

@jomillie12 Год назад

Your dads a legend 👍🏻

@gwstonemason Год назад

Mike, That was a good move, just replace the panel The corner really wouldn't be that hard to produce, simply manually bending alloy sheet over a round form first then do the cut outs for the vent and tool door. The damaged fibreglass cap can be a patch job, building the layers. She'll be a great Aerodyne when done.

@bigguy5155 Год назад

cannot wait for the next one

@chuckthomas8176 Год назад

400 inch wheel base . Would make her sweet ride ,plus a 3 door cab would make her very unique.

@carlcarlamos9055 Год назад

Did the Aero-Shield have to be ordered prior to building the truck, or could it be retro fit? Many cabovers on the east coast of the USA had wheelbases in the 152, 154, 156 inch range because of length laws. Yep, because of logistics, even if somebody had a NOS panel, getting local sheet metal people to fabricate one is probably a good viable alternative. A tri-drive cabover with a big cooking engine would be a good lowbed tractor. Adding twin-steer would make it even better. You guys are doing good. Get some brakes on that backhoe while the snow is flying. Thanks for all you do. Take care.

@jamesfarley3006 Год назад

Awesome job

@lawrenceashworth7668 Год назад

I live in south central Kentucky and we have had exactly 1 inch of snow all winter. It’s been the warmest January and February on record. March is turning colder though.

@stansdds Год назад

Living in the "Great White North"... better thee than me! For me, anything Stretched frame pros: Rides a lot better. Stretched frame cons: Everybody has done/is doing it. Whacked your hand with the hammer on the first swing... yep, get that event out of the way first.😉 Looks like Smokey now has what you could call an open-air concept sleeper. 😁 That was a scary moment when the chain broke and it looked like the deck might flip backwards. 😯

@lewiscates3724 Год назад

If you guys are going to extend any frames I’d use that as your inner frame support that thick metal on the back of stubby is good for that

@fredschell3972 Год назад

Mike, I would take the cab off Kenny and put it on Smokey and put Kenny's engine and drive train in K 2. That way it would give you two usable trucks with longer wheelbases. Use Smokey's cab for parts. Would also save you money and time. Just a thought. You wouldn't have to buy any more engines or cut offs. I love to see you and your dad working together.

@chrisbyers386 Год назад

Great vids wish auto industry we could rebuild them like that

@RoadRunnergarage8570 Год назад

Looks like you made some progress with smokey too...

@lawrenceveinotte Год назад

I would look for a fab shop that could bend the corner, someone might have made a radius punch that would work, i have made lots of press brake tooling, and you can just make a flat piece of fiberglass, maybe make it on a piece of glass from a patio door, i have total faith in you..

If you have a plasma cutting shop near you they should be able to cut you an exact copy with all the cut-outs and rivet holes.

Dad did good with the front end of stubby.

@zMajster Год назад

Nice job!

@mikeduin8311 Год назад

Great Video Mr.C, nice progress on smokey. On the fiberglass repair might it be a good idea to get a cut out piece of roof from an aerodyne, and laminate that in from where the fiberglass is unburnt and solid. Keep saving the cabovers!💪 Cheers, Mike

@mikethetrucknut Год назад

Yep getting some fiberglass Donner cap today

@7.3life Год назад

Any shop with a cnc laser or plasma table should be able to replicate that panel. Just remember to add a inch or two on the the side you cut.

Mike, I have 85 double sleeper 362. I noticed that the cab mounts are different than mine. The problem with mine is they are hydraulic and can’t rebuild kits yours looks manual. Was that an option back then

Stubby has an air ride cab with hydraulic locks. One works the other is stuck
