I was watching some similar videos last night on YouTube, but missed that one. Yeah, that is VERY impressive. Astoundingly impressive!

The 1966 F100 clone of the truck your dad bought is going to one really fun and meaningful project truck. Will any of the grandkids help with the project? If so, there will be great memories there, too. We have six grandkids and the oldest was very involved with my project Callaway Camaro back in the mid-late '90s. Fun and fond memories.

Even though I am a old fart all my grandkids are quite young. Oldest is 3 1/2 going on 24 lol
She really seems to like cars n trucks, Grandson who is 18 mo likes cars n trucks too. Will make sure when they come here I will make it fun for them.

2 Grandsons were just born February 2021. One first week one last week.

My oldest daughter got a 40k mi original 1986 Bronco that had sat for many many years in the AZ sun prior to getting her license. Picked it up for free and she completely went thru the mechanicals and we painted it together as the sun had burnt off all the paint down to primer and even primer was burnt off on top sides. The guy who bought it new went into the military and after many years it would not start so it sat a bunch more. A quick video after she finished it. Some parts of interior were faded so we just recolored complete interior plastics. Most expensive single item was paint and materials. She went with me and trudged through a pick a part to get the new top, fuel tank. Rest of stuff was new. THat day it was 119 deg out and she got heat stroke.

She did such a fantastic job! Hand painted the double pinstripe on trim rings, Pinstriped it too. All out of her own pocket!

The Bronco was painted outside too! Turned out great . .

Machine shop just dropped off all the engine parts a bit ago. Now I can start on engine. I pretty much have all needed to build the truck now. Just need patience and time.

I don't even know what to say about that dog... Having 20 metal bowls around to keep a dog happy is the dumbest shit I've ever seen in my life.

Why would you concern yourself with the way someone else keeps their pup happy? At their own home no less... lol.

Wrong thread.

Come one, man!
