One thing I've learned in a dirty vehicle like this is First to wash it down and scrub it a little bit... I do underside too the best I can w/o a Lift, Then add soap (let it work 5-10 mins) Repeat step 1 and done. Plus ofc on an older vehicle or something "Restored" etc don't go up against the paint it'll chip it right off. Learned the hard way on that
*For vehicles that have old caked on dirt and tree sap like this you need a foam cannon to apply soap (under $20 on ebay), cover the entire vehicle including the wheel wells and let it sit for 10-15 mins then rinse and watch ALL of the dirt and debris come right off.*
She cleaned up nice! That’s coming from a detailer! Just a repaint off white on the rims and she will look like new! That body is in amazing shape!!!! That’s worth some serious change down here in New York, but maybe worth more to you to use it for a few years first. Good find brother!
So satisfying to watch that crudd come off the sides. What a beautiful truck. If gas wasn't so expensive here in Canada I'd have a dually for sure. Keep up the good work we luv what you do.
Wow, looking good. Think about looking for a 10-11 foot camper to put on the back, get your self a trailer to tow and set up a workshop in. Might be the prefect setup for you. Put a little solar on both, you might have it made. Just something to think about. Good luck.
I need to pressure wash my grandpas old truck. It sat under a tree for 6 years then out in the open for 3 years which both places are on his farm and the windows are cloudy. Hope I can clean it
Well damn! That's a nice looking truck! I'm up in the rust belt in PA and those trucks are getting very rare because they all rust out, but if they're not rusted out they are gold man. The 88'-98' Chevy's were some of the best trucks ever made.
I'm sure you realize what a truck that is. There isn't much a 1-ton 4wd dually can't do. I drove a '93 1/2-ton Silverado for a long time. These got sort of pushed by the wayside when guys got trained to want $40K diesel trucks with leather-encased butt massagers, so there are some screaming deals to be had, especially one that isn't running.
just an idea...….sell the parts and engine and scrap patches since it will required more and more money to be spent on just to keep it on the road, and buy a decent used camper trailer to hook up to rusty and live in it.
The satisfaction from that pressure wash though lol. Not gonna lie,that truck is looking damn good now! Glad you are keeping it. Making it look so good makes me really worry about the owner wanting it back,hope you got the pink slip or are gonna get it REAL SOON. Might be worth taking up that warehouse deal that you were offered before to stay at . That way you can so some more to the truck and save some money and prob make some money at or near the warehouse. Good luck can't wait for the next vid.
Danny S. I would be surprised if it got more than 11mpg empty with a tail wind. 4x4 + dually and a 454 while a tough truck, is not going to go easy on the fuel.
i will never understand why somebody would let a nice truck like that sit out in a field to rot away. i see this in so many video's. even though i am not a big chevy man, that truck is looking good dude.
Been waiting for this.that would be the first thing I've had done,a biig ol wash..she's more like a trusty smurf then rusty if you ask me.great video.greetings from Norway.
Dude I’ve wanted this truck since u started working on it. It definitely has got a new lease on life, just somebody needed to give it to her. Great job. She would look mean with a lift kit and a set of black wheels and some taller rubber. And I ain’t talking about those gawd awful huge ass wheels that you see sticking out 3 foot from the truck and an inch of rubber. Maybe I’m just old school but that just ruins a 4x4 truck.
Take comet will clean then rubbing compound then WAx. Change all fluids and belts. Tires brakes battery put battery cut off for stealth power drain will shut off battery at 50 per cent. Had 97.chev van replace distributor and dwagter pump and timing belt at once.
I wished l was there to help you detail the truck. This just a suggestion but instead of painting the wheels get some chrome overlays. That would make the whole truck just POP! I'm trying to remember but didn't the previous owner give the truck to you? That is great looking rig. I kinda wish l had it. The color combination is really good l think. If you get those new ceramic products that Turtle Wax has and put them on your paint the truck will be standing so tall you won't be able to get into it. LOL.
Congratulations oh, you made that junk truck look halfway decent! All the time and effort money you put into it looks like it's paying off. Good for you!👍
Hope you don't mind I got tagged for ten quarantine questions by the travel trolls anyway I did it and you had to tag 5 other van lifers or owners and I tagged you and four others. The questions are in the description of the video on my channel. Don't mind if your busy I had to tag somone and I watch your channel
I had an '89 Chevy Silverado, basically same body style but a 2x4. The biggest pain in the butt that truck ever had was the way GM cheaped out on the tail lights. I was constantly having trouble with tail light failures even though the bulbs were good. Finally pulled the whole thing off and found that the thin copper strips were eaten almost completely away. I don't know if GM was trying to simulate a circuit board or just what the idea was but I finally took some solid electrical wire, stripped all the insulation off and soldered it along the entire area of those thin copper strips. That solved it's problem and I never had to deal with bad tail lights again.
How about a friend, have you thought about selling the truck, I am interested in I want to keep it like this, I do not want it for work is to take care of it and show it off ... greetings.

This makes me so happy that you cleaned it
Needs a pre soak with a foam cannon
Now that is a truck you’d be proud to own, fair play.
That Chevy dually truck sure deserves to get back on the road again.

Man that trucks paint is practically as fresh as it would have been when it rolled off the assembly line.👍👍
Man, that’s a beautiful looking truck better than any of the new trucks no technology nonsense
That was very satisfying. Hard to believe that he just gave you that thing. Loving this series
It's funny how satisfying it is to pressure wash a filthy old car. What's odd is how satisfying it is to watch someone ELSE do it!

A 454 dually, you'll pass a few things but you won't pass the gas station. That old truck cleaned up nicely!
That truck come a long way, good save man, enjoy your content!

Agreed! Thanks! :)
Now thats the ultimate car wash
Very nice Truck! You are a hard working person. That is Nice to see. Millennial's do not do that today. Great Job!
This guy looks like Carl from the Walking Dead Tv show.
Color me impressed. That paint held up pretty good over the years.
Agreed!

lol, leather-encased butt massagers! Tyler,too funny! ur channel rocks too
Nice work on this unit so far... You and Dr Phlox have allot in common. Voice certainly.
just an idea...….sell the parts and engine and scrap patches since it will required more and more money to be spent on just to keep it on the road, and buy a decent used camper trailer to hook up to rusty and live in it.
looks great! old truck just needed some love
What A Beauty!
That's a sweet truck . I'm jealous lol.
I think if you put the upper rad hose on the other way,flip it around,it will fit properly.
It’s amazing what a wash job does 👍
Good looking old truck. Drive it
Nice clean truck, love the style and color😀😀

These 454's really like an aftermarket exhaust.
Gas prices seem to favor Rusty at the moment. What was the mileage on Rusty?

Looks brand new

Yeah, Rusty looks good
You are a lucky man nice truck dude
Take comet will clean then rubbing compound then WAx. Change all fluids and belts. Tires brakes battery put battery cut off for stealth power drain will shut off battery at 50 per cent. Had 97.chev van replace distributor and dwagter pump and timing belt at once.
Replace the tires as soon as possible. They may look OK, but they'll fail on you, usually at highway speeds.
Brake lines. Then 3 mm on the tires to make it move. Depends on which Province.
With an Investment on tires on those things. A Diesel may save you on fuel consumption.

Congratulations oh, you made that junk truck look halfway decent! All the time and effort money you put into it looks like it's paying off. Good for you!👍
Varry good jops And it is varry clean

Soapy Water and a claybar will get rid of the rest of the dirt stuck to the paint.
Very good!!! 💪
Чумовая тачка!!!🙂👍👍👍
