$60 DOLLAR Paint Job For My Old Truck! BUDGET makeover Goin' Ta Town Approved?

Almost enough brake cleaner on top of those cabinets

Why don't you put your air compressor outside in it's own little building

What an amazing change! Totally agree with you - wasn't a lot of $$ but sure was a lot of skilled labor. Not just the time on the project, but your years of experience with this sort of work showed (as it always does). For me something goes wrong and I'm like "ah crap I don't know how to fix this now", but you just power through and fix it and nobody can tell! I love your long form videos, always makes me happy to see you post. I'm truly sorry for your loss, and love that you honored your Grandparents with the paint job - your buddy did a fantastic job. Much love bro!

great job !!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely loved this video

Great insight on cabin corner repairs and both rear fender bottom metal repairs behind the rear tires. First time where I have practical approach to setup, bending,trimming, and finalization. Great approach to repairs.

Oh man I laughed when you said you were going to paint the rear bumper red. My grandpa would paint the rear bumpers neon orange when the tail lights quit working on the farm trucks. lol

I've got those wheels on a 69 suburban in a 16

Tag light is just a reason to fish for DUI or other charges

They look like the rims off the international

I always pop the bed off and paint the front of it and the back of the cab and brush in bedliner the inside

My Jag X300:s had a weird sparepart (with part No.), called "painted coachline". But there were no part No for "The Lucas EFI works like it's supposed to". (Unfortunately. On both cars i had to replace the air flow meter. Any Jag owner, & most British persons knows what that means...)
This car would be fantastic with some clear coat. There actually are tractor clear coat, intended for tractor paint. I rememer mopeds from the 70:s, with stripes/decals with clear coat over it. & Liberal orange peel, so it would just pe part of the style.

60 dollar paint..... a billion dollars in labour lol you have a special place in my heart derrick

I'm of the school of thought if you're going to do it do it once in other words Penny wise = Pound foolish.

Thanks so much for these videos! I swear I am learning so much from your channel!

To buy a membership to your new membership is bull stuff man what the hell man

Get some aluminum duct tape - It works great for making reflectors in tail lights and turn signals reflective again. I've fixed up a bunch of lights like this. The tape isn't cheap - but a little goes a long way! It would likely make your tail lights twice as bright.
For colorblind guys like me, this is a big help. I can't see red lights very well.

I will paint any car or truck for $29.95.

Derrick anyway to talk you into showing us your welding technique, for us regular guys.

Maybe Some turbo spray bombs of rustoleum bedliner for the back bumper and bed!

Funny, educational and just plain entertaining to watch 👍!

Can you please post a vid on the best/safest way to discharge and dispose of old or damaged lipos? I have a few old ones sitting in an ammo can and still debating on how to properly discharge/dispose of them.

that gold pinstrip loks awesome good work.

I seen a guy grind paint off with a circular saw. This is nothing

In a few years you'll toss the keys to your helper and tell him it's his.

first timer here..what pressure and spray gun setting do you suggest?

Thanks for the video… I have the same problem with my 1995 Chevy… Thanks for the information.

In the background, sounds like Jeff Epstein is playing with Bill Clinton.

SHOOOTTT... I would have just welded that piece right over the original metal! it looks COOL !

Are there any construction companies that haven't switched over to only Spanish Speaking employees?

Man I can see your ductwork that has turned white

You really should get you a tent to keep the dust down from the rest of the shop and the overspray that will sit on everything including your fans and ductwork

I love how real this guy is..... just randomly stumbled upon this dude..... I shall return for later episodes

That's a sharp pickup!

WOW. What a transformation of the work truck! Great job and video

here's a thought...put a spray booth in the new barn.... it can be used just as a parking spot, ...but its there when a paint job is needed.

That’s perfect because it’s proof you don’t need to throw a ton of money into your vehicle to improve it. Take a chance, have some fun, and learn some new skills.

Name that truck after your grandmother

2 Corinthians 5:8 King James Version
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

Love the body wash and water trick for mounting the tires. I've always just used straight dish soap and it does exactly what a guy needs

Damn... you washed it and now its blinding me! I really liked the finished product, Derek!

Can you post the link to the website for the body panels I need the same ones but are always out of stock

I love ya man. Get ya some lung and eye pro!

love watching this guy, makes me laugh

Wtf hope you get well soon Jimmy. I’m sure you’ve been asked this but wtf would you pull the cap off ? Probably thought it was empty? Either way hope you get well soon bub .

Wonder where that child ends up in 20 yeara

your grandparents would be proud of of the job you did on the truck, but more importantly what a great example you’re setting for your sons and those of us who watch your videos and smile. God Bless your family and may God Bless America! thanks for all the effort you put into these videos and behind the scenes work. 👍🎉🇺🇸

The official going to town rigg ! Looks awesome!
