    Merlin, I just love how you find the deals, talk to the previous owners about their history on it, and then drag them home and assemble them back together or start them up from sitting to running in a day or two. Thank you for the video.

    Thank You Merlin , you have more projects than I do, and I can tell my wife that I know a guy that has more, so it’s his fault. 😂😂😂 I appreciate your knowledge and work ethics, I do the same things you do but not as fast and don’t video it. I love watching but don’t have the patience to learn all that’s required to make videos. Some of them would be at my hangar and I don’t need the Uncle Sam looking over my shoulder. Keep it up and thanks again.

    I could have used that chassis back in about 1982, when I had a wrecked 1962 Chevy C-10 step side that had that same setup. I ended up selling the bed, the motor, gearbox, wheels and tires and scrapping the rest.
    Made good money on it. Drank it all, but I made good money.

She would stay up at night while he was at work and watch the Network . What He did NOT know is she was buying EVERYTHING on the Channel. Somehow she Managed to spend OVEr $100,000 dollars of his money . Needless to say they are NOW DIVORCED!!

    I put a 292 with a Carter 1-barrel, a 54 3/4 ton 4-speed, and a 57 Cadillac rear end in that 42 Chevy pickup I got from your Dad. I got clocked on radar doing over 125 racing, and beating, a Monte Carlo on my way home from Vegas. The cop let me go when he saw I only had a 6-cylinder. I told him he must have clocked the Monte Carlo that didn't stop. 292s rock!

    I need a 41 Ford pickup truck.My father had one for several years and would drive us to the drive-in with slicks on the back and t-bird engine in the front it's been so long I forget the size of the engine. I think it was a 408 if I'm not mistaken,but it was pretty massive and he had stacks coming out of the sides.By the time we got to the drive-in we were sick of smelling smoke from the tires burning. He wound up flipping it upside down into a tree doing a little bit of high-speed traveling when he was under the influence. Fortunately he survived but the truck didn't. And I think the police took it as evidence. To be honest I think the only thing that was majorly damaged was the top of the tree in someone's front yard right by my junior high in Midwest City Oklahoma. At the time we didn't have modern suspension so he hit a bump going probably only 50 mi an hour in a residential area. Unfortunately the truck took flight and it was front heavy to say the least. Anyway if anyone knows of a 41 they are very rare I would like to find my father's that's probably pretty much impossible but anyway I can dream. I love what you, it reminds me of me.ciao for now.

    I had to laugh when you described the spilt green coolant, "Looks like Lake Elsinore", yep, it does. I lived there 8-1/2 years in the late 80's and 90's. I had more fun on that lake. Except when the water would get that disgusting blue green algae on the surface that would stink to high heaven. It gave us a great excuse to drive 5 hours to Lake Havasu for clear water.
