Removing the cab from my Silverado and gutting it to appease the cab swap "experts"

Everyone that didn't watch the entire previous videos or understand how impossible it is to find a rust-free cab around me have told me it is much easier to just swap the cab. A few even accused me of not being able to handle a cab swap (apparently, they are new here). So now I will do everything that would have had to be done to swap the cab, just to paint it. Of course, we don't have to wait months for the state to retag it, but the experts didn't take that into account along with everything else. I'm starting to question if these people behind their keyboards that have never done any of this kind of work really are the experts they claim to be. LMAO The work in this video took less than 2 hours for those of you watching the clock.

@ericbleueldoesstuff9152 Год назад

I love the attention to detail. Not many people would strip the entire cab for paint. I would guess that most would simply mask off and give the standard $200 paint job. Thanks for setting a higher bar of expectations.

@432b86ed Год назад

Why would you want (let alone _need)_ to strip the coatings that were applied in the best possible manner, at the factory? I would take the gloss off the original paint, wipe it down with solvent and spray away.

Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health.

@euroastar350 Год назад

And this is why I could never paint my cars any other colors other than what was applied at the factory, too much hassle having to strip every single thing on it and then having to deal with DMV, having to change the vehicle color on the registration/title then what was there previously. My hats off to you Scott for this tedious amount of work, I'm sure it'll pay off in the end.

@MoneyManHolmes Год назад

I did a heater core on one of these a while back before RU-vid tutorials were a big thing. It is possible for one person to get the HVAC assembly out with the dash and seats still in the vehicle. With the dash assembly unbolted (except the main bolts left partially screwed in on the driver side), the dash assembly will lift up and out just enough for the HVAC assembly to slide out through the floor board. I was pleasantly surprised at how easily it went.

@richardjones5255 Год назад

That felt like a huge attention to detail as I sat watching, I realised that I am well past retirement age and why I am no longer doing much of anything except watch and enjoy things being done the right way by people who still can do them. Perhaps it will be no surprise that throttle cables, (and complex mechanical throttle linkages as an alternative), oil bath air filters, rod-brakes and a host of other almost forgotten, but largely unlamented automotive items, are not unknown to me.

I hear you on the color change. It would always drive me nuts to see jams not done, or where you pull a small panel and the original color is there. It also drives me nuts when people take the easy way out and paint an engine bay that is supposed to be body color black unless that's the body color they are going with. And when they use more time and money in tape and masking than if they would just strip it down properly to begin with.
