Moms Spaghetti was gross! So I fixed it. 

“I’m sure there is a better way to do this, but I don’t know that way”. My entire hot rodding life summed up in a sentence.

Please don't ever paint Mom's Spaghetti, it's becoming an iconic look like Frieburgers General Mayhem.

Is it just me or is this better than Dirt Every Day? It just seems more like the real-life normal guy getting it done. Love the Channel Bru.

"I'm not in the business of restoring old trucks" breaks out the sawzaw.

I feel like there isn't enough content about this truck and Dave acts like it's not important sometimes. But all of his really unique additions need to be explored.

Love this truck Dave! I had my 1997 OBS F250 burn the cab and engine bay from a nest in the heater box. I was buying it back from a guy and he started it up and it caught fire while he was inside getting the title. When I got there it was out, but the dash, windshield, and heater were all burned up. It almost burned his building down as the wiring for the shifter interlock burned and he couldn't move it away from the building. He had to beat it out with his shirt!

" I'm not really in the business of restoring trucks" lmfao

“I’m really not in the business of restoring old trucks.” So true, so very true😂

Awsome man love seeing the build and the realistic fix not just new shiny stuff

Glad you’re putting something back into the truck as far as heat. One can off-road without heat. My concern was no defrost. Being a guy who lived many years up in the northwest I was concerned for safety reasons. My 61 Willis had two heaters similar to your Mardene and I never had issues. In fact, quite often it was almost too hot.

I have been impatiently waiting for a new dirt everyday episode and found your channel today and learned it won’t be coming back. I’m sad there won’t be anymore DED but excited about this channel! you got a sub from me.

Totally dig the front bumper on Mom's Spaghetti. You managed to make a stock bumper look awesome. I think you invented a new style, tasteful Mad Max.

We appreciate all youre one arm struggles thanks for sharing 👍

this truck is amazing. Dave, thank you for the content as always. keeep it comin

I love this truck that old school pre runner style bumper is awesome. One thing I always throw in my vehicles in winter is a gel type sterno can ,they can save your bacon and fry it.

Always anxious for the next video and tips and tricks. Thanks Dave. I have used Vintage Air heaters in a couple of projects. They are reasonable, have floor, defrost, or mix, 3 speed fans. They also pull inside air but when it is in a soft top...no worries. In my Willy's, I just ran the defroster hoses up the front of the dash and attached the vent ends to the roll cage cross member with Velcro. That way they can be removed easily in the summer.

Nice to see her out and about again. Can't wait for the next video.

Funny you did this. A few months ago I got into my wife’s two year old Nissan Frontier, and as you said, it smelled horrible. When I opened up the blower and heater, it was so full I don’t know how the blower was running. They transplanted a moving blanket in the garage to the truck’s ductwork. Found a total of two adult and probably a dozen baby dead mice. Pulled it all apart, cleaned it up and smells nice and fresh now.

I absolutely love the way that truck sits. I have an 86 f150 that I’m going to be building to leave out in JV. The look of the bullnose with a step side and big tires looks so awesome!

Just breathing in moldy spore mouse poo, but at least it's warm 🤣

Moms spaghetti is the coolest truck ever! My dad had a tan long bed when I was in high school always thought that truck was awesome.

Nice!! I got the Holley Retro Bright headlights on my 2000 Jeep XJ. I went with the yellow ones myself.

This truck is inspiration for my '84 bronco I've been neglecting to pull out of the "tree row". Thanks for all the great content

You will never bore me with this truck! More Mum's Spaghetti!!

I see this truck had the rare factory option of the mouse house cabin air filter! 🤣

You could try and use a utility attachment for a shop vac to run ducts from the box to the factory squares

Such a great upgrade…..still one of my favorite builds of yours👍🏻👊🏻

I like that old truck. Old school full size trucks are cool. Love the content, you're killing it. Appreciate the work making these

Really liked this episode, lots of tips and tricks. Be sure to follow up on your heater. Let us know how it worked for you. Thanks for sharing Dave. Keep up the great work.

Reminds me of my fav 80’s rock band “Ratt”!⚡️⚡️🤘🏻🤘🏻

So happy to see more full size Ford content!

Such an awesome rig. Thanks for the content, always happy to see a new video from you.

Love moms spaghetti , such an awesome rig. Looking forward to your next video Dave.

We really need a pacific nw ultimate adventure that is held during the winter. You'd tear it up 💪🏼

Mom's spaghetti is so Rad! Really makes me want to build my own crawler called 'Vomit Sweater' haha!

Hunter is the brand tire changer you want. Great work on the ford! Love it!

I love watching you build stuff!!

I love the heater core, it reminds of one’s I saw on military equipment. They weren’t pretty we’d use them as a foot rest, but they worked. If I ever had a beater with a clogged heater core buried under the dash I’d drill a few holes and install one of these for heat.

Always dropping solid tips keep up the good work!

Great vid, thanks! Pack rats are my mortal enemy. I've actually put screens on my fresh air intakes to keep them out, but I still have crap falling in to the fan. Hate those things.

I love this truck and want to build something similar to it. Thanks for the great content.

Thanks for showing the Holley RetroBrights, never seen them before. Wanted to upgrade to LED for a while now but I dislike the tacky futuristic 7" LEDs everyone seems to put in their classics nowadays. Definitely gonna get the RetroBrights for my FJ40.

Mouse house was massive! I love that truck was great to see you wrenching on it again.

Im a firm believer in seat heaters for winter wheelin. I put a kit off EBay into my Tj’s stock seats a decade ago. They work way better than the crap OEM heater.

I'm not sure if it will matter with the temperatures that you will see there, but generally for windshield defrosting/defogging you need fresh outside air. Recirculating air from in the cab doesn't work to keep the windows clear because it's not dry enough. Hope this helps!

I love this truck. It has “the look” ! Keep it rad Dave.

Awesome stuff Dave! Looking forward to the next spaghetti serving.

Hey Dave! Do you typically have independent sets of tool for your go-bags, or do you take the time to tear them down and repack them for every trip?

Well there you are, I’ve been lookin all over the place for you!

The rear good question I have. What are those purple cranks on that old mountain bike leaning up? Could breathe some life back into that thing and have it be a fun campground/trailside bike.

Dave, you're doing good man. Keep it up.

Dave, you need more videos!! I am craving MORE!!!!

Wow that certainly needed removing ! Although it’s a simple unit at least you’ll have some heat whilst winter wheeling, nice job. 👍🏽😎

I used a heater like that in a 74 ford. Worked like a champ. It was marine style heater.

Love the video, thank you for giving us excellent content. How are you kicking along ? Hope you and the family are doing well and some royalties help keep you afloat. Prayers for you and your family. Take care

Finally, back to my favorite build! Keep it rockin', Dave, I bleed Ford Blue!

Glad to see you guys again

One time I was driving that '69 Chevy longbed on the 94 and I thought it would be a good idea to open the crotch cooler door for the first time.. A blast of mice, insect, pine needles and other horribleness blasted out a my junk at about 60 MPH.

I'm late to the party, very kind of you to have a seat available, missed you.

I like this truck. I like that it is different. Jeeps are great but variety is the spice of life. I think you'll definitely need to hook up that defroster. I know when we get a cold rain it is almost inevitable that the inside of my windshield fogs no matter what I drive. Seem like you were just trying to get it functional for this trip so mission accomplished there. Without A/C I would have it pull air in from the outside permanently. I find this help keep my vehicles more comfortable. Just need some 1/4" screen over the opening to keep critters out. That's more of a luxury, though.

I really like this rig. I have a bullnose f250 as well and I would like to build it up to be more capable though not quite as much as you have yours. What are your thoughts on keeping rear leaf springs and modifying the front ttb dana 50 axle to be springs instead of Leafs on the heavy duty trucks?

I've seen other you tubers talk about these new lights from Holley. So I went to Holley's web site. Geeze Louise. They are really proud of them. I guess it's still gonna be old school halogens for my stuff. I'm just to cheap.

I had the same experience removing the heater/AC box from my 78 W100… expected to be simple and ended up being a MAJOR pain.

I love those square Fords, she'd look awesome OD Green! I painted my 95 F 150 OD , I miss that truck! Although I don't miss driving it here in NY, my First Gen Tacoma S.A.Swap Mini Truck works a lot better in this tight ass place!

Yes! Mom’s dirty underwear, oooops- spaghetti is back!!! The legend!

The coolest truck ever. I love seeing moms spaghetti

Mom's spaghetti always gets a click!

Love Mom's spaghetti! Might look into adding a little insulation in the cab to try and keep some heat in there.

Love the channel Dave, keep em comin 😁

Mom's spaghetti is my favorite. Good to see you wrenching in it.

Knees are weak, palms are sweaty

🎤Yo His heaters smelly, mouse squeaks, poops are many There's nest stuff on his on his floor already, mom's spaghetti 🎶😆

Ok ....Fred...you need a cat. I have one and his name is Fuzz Nuts...great cat.

Eat your heart out Vintage air! We now have Chappelle Air that also rhymes with Bel-air which is also cool too! Soo...... yeah. Rock on!

Is your B2000 the one JD Fab used to have a boom on so they could drive on two wheels?

For the ducting you can get peheater hose since its easy to make bends or even fit something not perfect round. I used it on my Datsun 620 after moving the firewall back for a sbc.The heater box moved so the stock hoses no longer reached.

Totally what I needed to see because I'm facing the same mouse problem in my bullnose. I've been looking at the Flex-a-lite Mojave heaters, but I'm now going to check out Maradyne. Thanks for presenting that option.

Nice headlights! I was trying to make Sylvania Silverstar’s work in my CJ. They burned out way too often, so I went with some Hella H4’s. The Hella lights were way better. I had my KC’s wired so if I engaged them, they would only come on with High beams (still useful) when I figured out that wiring trick, I also did my reverse flood so it would come on only in reverse, with high beams on. Relays opened up all sorts of options when I figured out how to use them. I bet those leds draw a lot less than my H4’s. When they die I may opt for them.

Is that new heater box pulling in fresh air or cabin air? If cabin air will it fog the windows?

Snow wheeling with LED lights. It isn't fun getting out every 5 miles to wipe off the lights, because you can't see. The ones with heat elements in them cost a bunch. Keep up the videos man!

Good watching 👀. Keep up the good work

Nice finnally a obs ford to watch i have a aero and a brick the bullnose front clip on the brick is killer

Hey Dave, are those the Mickey MTZ's that you took off? I snagged some for my jeep im building, sounds like you had a good experience with them. Im stoked to give them a whirl

Some fiberglass fenders up front would look rad!!!

That rig is RAD!!!

You sure that mouse nest isnt actually a cabin filter .😃😁🐀🐀🐀

Do you have a video on the winch mount? I have a 1965 F100 that I’d love to make a hidden type winch mount into the stock bumper.

Is there a video out there on how you built the winch bumper on moms spaghetti? Super creative style I would love to copy on my highboy Thanks for being on youtube

Old hard tail mountain bikes, pry bars and sawzAlls my guy 🤘🏾moms spaghetti is heroin! please don’t change its overall appearance . those trucks remind me of a simpler time, just a rad build. grandpas old truck on roids !!

Dave, what size is your shop? We're getting ready to build and it looks like a decent size/layout.

You should get some of the vise grip garage patina juice for that rig...

Wow.....that heater was packed.....FULL. Its hard to get that mouse urine smell out. And the particulates from it make you sicker than a dog. Ask me how I know. Thanks for the journey into the unknown! 😁

Nice work Dave 🤘 Went from Rat Truck to Rad Truck

Enjoying the content as usual. Who is the artist/song of your intro music?

Holy Rat Shit there goes my late night snack yuk lol

I’ve got a 1997 F350 with a similar drive train. That I use for plowing snow up here in Michigan. And your mouse nest is nothing compared to the I had , lol ! I kept all the hardware but like you had to take it apart clean everything out and reassemble. No

Hey cool, that box has my name on it! 😂

Good stuff Dave!
