There’s this really cool new company called UPS that brings things right to your house when you buy them 1000 miles away. It’s a really awesome idea, because you don’t have to worry about your parts getting stolen from a hotel parking lot. I think this shipping idea might really take off. I heard that John Dutton started the company and that’s why the trucks are brown with yellow lettering. So cool.
The best thing about Base model trucks. It gives you a lot more room to work with for your budget. And for this truck to be this clean, It saved you a lot of time in the project.
This one hit close to home Mike. I work at one if the last operating press facilities in Southern California. Hard to see what was clearly a great facility left for dead. That was state of the art when it was closed. Great episode!
After your tour of TSP, I got to thinking about how much of their MASSIVE expansion over the last four or five years is a direct result of them rolling the dice with a corvette cart drivin’ 6’6” giraffe from Florida, and going stupid fast with a re-sleeved 427….. and they absolutely abused that frickin motor.
Imagine the Affliction T-shirt collection the faux hawk dude with the worst case of Imaginary Lat Syndrome of all time is rocking? Enough to make Richard Rawlings cream his wife's jeans!
I still work in the printing industry. Couple of notes. 1. Ink gets everywhere and does require a lot of effort to stay clean. 2. It's very noisy. 3. That KBA press is massive and probably able to print 100's of thousands a copy and hour. Very cool
I studied and worked in print for a good few years just before it really died off. There is nothing like a press running properly and there is nothing like problem solving mid run when it's not 😂 Awesome to see the old presses again. UK here so it was always Heidelburg for litho that we worked with. If I remember correctly the newspaper rolls were 13 miles long each! Still blows my mind to this day. I miss working hands on with print, I moved over to the design side as things became more digital but still get excited when I get to send to print these days.
I worked in printing for 30 years, not in the press room but in prepress. Everything from 4 color process to book work. Layout from film to digital. Printing isn’t dead yet but it certainly is a shell of it’s former self 😢
I love this project idea. In high school, I bought a clean 93 Chevy long bed standard cab work truck with a 4.3L and 160k highway miles for $500. My dad and I bought a 350 with a detonated piston and rebuilt it with a cam, flat top pistons, double roller chain, etc. He used to rebuild engines for a living and still had machine shop access. The electronics and EGR were a little tricky because the 350 was out of a 91, but we made it work. Didn’t have the budget for high end speed parts, but we cut out the junk catalytic converter and put in dual exhaust with a flowmaster 40 series. Definitely made some nice noise. Pulled out the old worn bench and put in a nicer set of Dodge Ram seats we got from a junk yard, after a little fabrication with the mounting hardware. Threw in some new carpet, looked like a whole new truck inside. Probably only had a couple thousand bucks into the truck (not including our labor), but it was a fun project with my dad and I ended up with a pretty cool truck for a kid in high school. Can’t wait to see what you do with this one! Thanks for all the cool projects you share with us!
One good bit of info on OBS trucks with daytime running lamps...if you are working on it and don't want the headlights to run the battery down with the ignition on, set the parking brake and the headlights will go out.
That old Austin American statesman build is awesome. I spent plenty of time working on copiers in those buildings. On the truck, that's not a work truck. It's an SL. It was most likely custom ordered the way it is.
i wanna thank u for being my childhood and well giving me a passion i really never understood why i liked it until i grew up a lil more. trust me you n your old roadkill days touched a lot of people in different countries i remember every night with a plate of chicken or noodles i used to just watch you david wrench on cars it really gave me well enough passion to do the same i just got 2 more years until i get to wrench on a car cause of reasons. still i love you bud keep it up.
That color is Indigo Blue Metallic, I saw that truck sell on cars & bids in December 2023, and it had steel wheels on it, so the guy that bought it must have swapped out the steel wheels for the ones that are now on it. Cool truck, I can't wait to see it completed.
I had a 97' Chevy 1500 Work Truck with a reg cab, 8ft bed and the 4.3L. Great truck. After driving it for 10+ years in the Northeast, with an open diff and 2wd, I can drive just about anything in the snow. It was so much fun to drift in the rain/snow. Even with the 4.3, all I had to do was give it a little gas and cut the wheel. Good grab Finnegan!
In the middle of watching your video now on my TV. Send a new comment from the phone I think it is so cool that you are meeting all these people and trading things, and when you sign that little boy's cap, that was really awesome.
Not gonna lie when you guys were leaving the hotel and Joe didn't have his hat or glasses on I was like oh he must be a fan a ride. Then he talked and realized it was him. 😅
im in this video!!! it was so awesome meeting you man i had a blast at the meet up in Texas!! it was nice to know meeting you was exactly the same as you see in videos. your down to earth and just enjoy everyone's projects and dreams as much as your own, that is awesome!!
I swapped in a $25 tach gauge setup from a 93 into an 89 4x4. Lots of splicing. Free 2003 seats, $50 Toyota alloy rims, free tires, $300 700R4, $100 Silverado front end, 120K TBI 350, $50 rear sliding window. Still need rug. Freebie truck.
This truck brings back sooo many memories! Parts guy at a GMC/Pontiac stealership, I used to have the front-end/grille conversion kit part numbers memorized. A famous "Stylin" retailer used to fax us orders 30-40 sometimes 50 grilles (painted style with halogen headlight capsules). A few more smoke shows like that and the 8.5" ring gear will be whining for a rebuild!
Glad to see you're mobile Mike! Texas doesn't do anything small, but from what I saw of the rain you probably figured that out. Great video, glad you're enjoying your "down time". Get better as quick as you can.
Ive got twin 95 rcsb step sides. 1 V8 5 speed 2wd, 1 V8 auto 4x4. And a 94 with the 6.5 detroit. These trucks are finally gaining some more popularity. Simple to work on, limited emissions crap. Decent trucks.
My older brother was a LITHOGRAPHIC PRINTER for his entire career. He worked on four color presses and would bring home proof sheets sometimes. I hauled and delivered giant rolls of paper to different places. 5 or 6 rolls would be around 45,000 lbs.
When I was 19 (in 2002)I had 98 GMC sb with the 4.3 and a 5spd I loved that truck. I had a custom box built and fit 4 12in Sony xplodes behind the seat. They definitely have potential, really want to see it finished
I say keep the v6 because it is rare, low mileage, and unique because basically everyone else has v8’s. Lower it and build the factory engine. Maybe a tt kit or supercharger?
37:34 Mike, I married a girl who had a crush on NKOTB back in the day. 23+ years later she still listens to them occasionally and I just head down to the basement to put Zeppelin 4 on the turntable and crank it.
Dare I say, thank goodness Cody didn't get this? 😅 Also, I had a blue and gold two-tone extended cab shortbox 350 vortec auto 98 myself. Had 165k km on it when I got it, had 285k on it when a student driver cut me off and wrote it off :( best truck I ever owned. Famous 1 wheel peel lol mine had full power blue interior and the same 15" wheels, though it was the chevy cat eye front end.
Ahhhh, Rad. That bike dancing scene is so iconic in my mind. I think BMXers call it flatlanding? Send me an angel Send me an angel Right now, right now
Stock sucks. These trucks are hideous stock. They are decent trucks for what they are but handsome they are not. They aren't even in the top 5 of best looking trucks built.
Hey Mike, just s heads up. Those old cassettes start to shed their iron oxide. It will start to gum up the tape heads. You should clean the heads every so often with a q-tip and some denatured alcohol.
An hour on any social media site would prove that. Half of Americans can't spell, use punctuation, or construct a sentence. Forget reading comprehension, since nobody online reads anymore.
Looking forward to this build. I have a 94 short bed standard cab factory 5.7 5 speed. That warehouse facility would make a great haunted house come October. Should tell your friend there are a few big time company's that are always looking for locations to put them on...🤓
I dont think I have seen a 90s truck this clean. I cannot believe you found it in this condition. A blast from the past. I also grew up in the 90s and loved the mini truck/NOPI stuff but at the same time I see the value in keeping it stock. Still it has to look good for SEMA.
I'm with Finnegan. It blows me away that all of that. Entire factories, just gone... All because of a phone. Like, i like technology. I built my computer, have a home server, networked my whole property. But mechanical machines are just SO much cooler!
Rad is one of the best movies ever and I have passed the tradition onto my 15 yr old son. When I first seen the truck I was thinking u were going to build something crazy out of the aluminum 4.3 you have. If I remember correctly u got back from Friburger
Oh man, my first truck was a 1994 Chevy W/T Regular cab long bed, in that exact some color. Loved that thing...some serious nostalgia here! I didn't know you could still find one so clean...treat it well!
Joe needs his beard back and hat. When he got in the truck with the blue plaid shirt on I thought he was your dad. (I have no idea what your dad looks like, but Joe looked like he could have been)
Just a heads up ,when ever I get a new cassette tape I fast forward and reverse it twice then Play, and if your lucky it doesn't have a twist which makes it interesting 😊
We ran that motor and did expedite freight runs out of PA. They ran 250K before we retired them. An employee would buy them and used them for a grocery getter. They were 2.5 to 3 years old at that point

do an easy and still very drivable ~3-4" drop, drop spindles and drop hanger/shackles. I'm also pretty sure holley makes a paddle shift kit to go with their 4l60e/4l80e controller, and I know TCI makes a paddle shift kit
I use to haul the rolls of paper he was talking about all the time. I picked up one load in Charlotte that another driver shifted the load to the front. It took 10 trips to the scales to get it legal. I hated paper rolls because they liked to walk and you were usually maxed out just under 80,000 lbs.
As a Texas based truck driver I've delivered hundreds of loads of paper and ink to this plant. Real PIA with 80000 lbs going thru downtown Austin. Then you go to the other dock and pick up printed newspapers to be in Dallas the next morning.
FWIW I had a 2000 S10 Blazer with same engine and it made 145HP & 215TQ on a chassis dyno with about 190K miles. They make TQ & stop pulling at 96 MPH.
Dude, my dad's 03 camry has a tape player and my son, of all people called out the blue tooth caset tape. I'm an 80s kid myself. And that thing is the coolest thing since slice cheese
OBS is a simple explanation. In 99 they had the GMT800 and GMT900. So 800 is OBS. Just like in 07 you had split years again so you have classic for the 99-07 body style
Man, I would do dirty, dirty things to get a truck this mint. At an affordable price. Nothing is affordable these days to the common man. Gonna go hug my 2000 XJ and thank it for giving me a fun vehicle to thrash around, off road, and take hunting.

The 4.3 is a fun engine. Remember it's just a 350 with 2 cylinders cut off. So same accessories and trans.
Just randomly found a white long bed 4.3 obs on FB for $3,700 OBO pretty clean and only 102K miles. If i needed a truck id be all over that.

I gotta say it, a Ferrari filming a OSB truck cruising is hilarious! Love it!
My grandpa had that aluminum print sheet as siding on his ice shack. Pretty cool stuff his was from the 70 or 80s newspaper
That's an awesome color and I like the clean stock rims.
Buccees is heaven on earth
You can just add turbos to the 4.3l and get about 1200hp!! You should try that!!
A 500E? Ahh, the wonderful love-child of M-B and Porsche! They are *stupid* fun.
@Finnegangarage1017 gotta a little rattled, Eh?????? you tried twice on this one. ..... 😅😅😆😆🤣🤣😅😅🤪🙄 Scammer from Minne !
I use to haul the rolls of paper he was talking about all the time. I picked up one load in Charlotte that another driver shifted the load to the front. It took 10 trips to the scales to get it legal. I hated paper rolls because they liked to walk and you were usually maxed out just under 80,000 lbs.
As a Texas based truck driver I've delivered hundreds of loads of paper and ink to this plant. Real PIA with 80000 lbs going thru downtown Austin. Then you go to the other dock and pick up printed newspapers to be in Dallas the next morning.
FWIW I had a 2000 S10 Blazer with same engine and it made 145HP & 215TQ on a chassis dyno with about 190K miles. They make TQ & stop pulling at 96 MPH.
Dude, my dad's 03 camry has a tape player and my son, of all people called out the blue tooth caset tape. I'm an 80s kid myself. And that thing is the coolest thing since slice cheese
OBS is a simple explanation. In 99 they had the GMT800 and GMT900. So 800 is OBS.
Just like in 07 you had split years again so you have classic for the 99-07 body style
Greetings: U said 19.6 MPG. I had 22MPG in my TBI 350. and 31in tires. The 3.08 really helped.
ADDING a linelock would be a nice test theory for that burnout with cruise control!
Double check the assembly from TS, as you should from anyone. Brand new motor nuked on first dyno pull from a valve keeper.
It can not be over stated how great it is to start a project with a vehicle that doesn't need body or paint restoration.
Reverse burns outside. Can't imagine what that 4lslippy was thinking during that. I thank I can I think I can stay together 😂
Man, I would do dirty, dirty things to get a truck this mint. At an affordable price. Nothing is affordable these days to the common man. Gonna go hug my 2000 XJ and thank it for giving me a fun vehicle to thrash around, off road, and take hunting.
Went to see the Remastered Re Release of RAD with my son he loved it!. Even stayed after the credits for the Jason Sudeikis interviewing of the Cast of RAD
Didn’t even recognize Joe without his beard but great video. Thanks, Mike.
Put that all aluminum 4.3 in it with a set of turbos !!!
