I have a lot of sentimental value attached to this very cool squarebody, so after sitting for over 3 years, I spend a week bringing it back to its proper glory! This thing turned out awesome, what do you think? I love you all!

Tom, been watching your channel for a little over a year. You guys are awesome. I lost my mentor to brain cancer last summer. I’ve been hunting down his old el Camino so I can try to buy it from his family. Keep the hot rodding alive. Cheers to all the old guys that passed down knowledge and wisdom to the younger guys just figuring it out. RIP to Boston Kevin The Plumber. 🫡
We need more of this Square! Rust repair, Some engine work, upgrades, brakes, anything really, maybe paint?!?!
i think with how awesome the story is and how he was in your life, we NEED a full restoration on this square body like showroom quality
Deserves the full restore like MR.Stroke had 👀
Dinosaur is absolutely gorgeous love seeing square body trucks getting the love they deserve
Spirits are REAL. I’ve had many experiences with them. I’m almost positive one was my mother in law who liked to play pranks on me, and give me a big shove in the back if I was in bed and ignored my alarm or ringing phone.
Might not have done it right but did it right enough that it works
Rest in peace Mr.Jerry
Fun fact, the badges on the cab behind the rear door means it’s a camper special. Factory the camper specials had the wide wheels that were on the back, just would’ve been all the way around.
13:58 on my 83 Chevy that is the neutral safety. You can just splice those 2 wires together and it will work just fine that’s how mine is. Only problem it will start in gear
My grandfather just recently passed but before he died, he agreed to sell me his barn stored 66 Mustang for dirt cheap. I had always wanted the car since I first saw it at around 12 years old. 2023, the day after Christmas, when checking on the car before picking it up I discovered the 1966 Mustang had been stolen to include his 12 plus other barn stored classics. It’s nice to see someone get a car from someone they cared about after they passed because i will more than likely never get to do the same.
:30 I ran a set of those "ridiculously wide" 12.00x16.5 bias ply farm implement tires on white wagon wheels on a 2WD 1967 F-250 with manual steering that I had when I was like 18 -19 years old...gave me "tickets to the Gun Show" 💪💪 after driving it for a couple of years 😆.
Now i think you guys need to splurge and hot rod a 70s ford f600, it would be hilarious to see how fast you could make a working dumptruck 😂
I think jerry would want a 454 put back into that truck. 🙌
