Respectfully, I watched this video of your fixing this hood. Thinking it will be the most boring thing for me but trust that you always have the best content I get much from. You never disappoint me this video is so cool Sir! Who’d of thought I’d get so much from fab-up work, but I find it so interesting how you approach and are truly a master at what you do! Thanks much “again” you Rock the old steel! P.S. today my turn signal switch get here from Jegs. Had issue after the “American AutoWire” install. Found the turn signal switch is bad caused no turn for left and no brake light for left either. Today, wire-up aftermarket digital “Glowshift” gauges. And that turn signal switch, reinstall the bench seat get it inspected. Thanks for all these informative videos on our beloved “63’s!”
@@Gibson63. yeah, I just watched the new step side intro you posted, great start video to show where it goes from, and to. Nice, I’m going to follow of course.. You help me much, thanks! Hey after install of my “American AutoWire” kit I discovered a bad turn signal switch was no giving brake or turn signal to left rear… “Fix that, then I’m at the inspection lane for recheck for lights, then on the road I go!” You Rock the old steel! Thanks for all these informative videos Sir!
Great job I have a C10 in Brazil I'm renovating and these videos helps a lot. Here there are no videos with so many details so congratulations for the work.
Love your videos. You remind me of my grandpa. Very good at any and all things and most important a great person. My grandpa is also from Tennessee. Jellico tenn.
Gibson, awesome job on both trucks! I just got a 1965 GMC truck and you have inspired me to no end! Keep up the good work man and take care. -RangerJoe Cypher AirborneRanger Monster Truck
Your always just in time. I just decided today that I was gonna address the rust issues on my hood cause I can't find a decent replacement at the wreckers. You gave me the ideas on how to start. Now I just gotta wait for the weather. It's colder than a witches heart in the garage today.
it seems to me you're doing a great job brother I want you to know I've been watching all the videos thus far on this truck and I have learned so much watching you more than I have learned from anyone else. I am looking so forward just seeing the next video brother so keep it up God bless you
You made that look so easy. That’s a pretty big job and careful with your measurements so everything turned out well. That belt grinder looks to be your go to tool for correct fitment. Thanks for uploading.
Have been watching your videos for the past two days, amazing meticulous work on everything you touch! Surgeon like skill on that hood! Tip my hat to you! Keep those videos coming, inspires me to keep working on my '74 C-10! Great job!
This junkyard you go to must be a wonderful place. We used to have one near Peru, IN that was an absolute gold mine, FULL of these trucks. Back when scrap prices went through the roof, it seemed they couldn’t send the hundreds of classic vehicles they had to the crusher fast enough. Nothing left now but an empty patch of woods and a dilapidated building that housed the office. Makes me sick to even drive past it these days. Most of the trucks they had looked like they had been driven in and parked. I got a lot of good parts there back before the internet and catalog companies came along.
Dang good job. I sure wish you was my neighbor. Sure woukd like to turn a wrench with you and learn a lot of good things. Thats going to be as nice as your red truck when you get finished.
dude i really like your vids,lot of energy and care to what you do,brought back a lot of youth when i seen you sand that nose and about 4 coats of paint on it ahhahah,had a 65 chevy i restored back in the 80's lol that damn truck had 7 coats of difrent colors on it,wasnt internet for parts back then,and scoring from a junk yard was next to impossible,lmao,keep um coming bro your doing a fine job
Great work! Looks like you’re getting close on this one. If you have any more scrap pieces of the hood you cut up, I could use them to fix my ‘63. I’m in Memphis too.
Just binge watched a bunch of your videos on the blue 63 as I've just started my own 63 project tear down. What sandblaster are you using and would you recommend it?
Great video you always make it look easy, will you show the body work on the hood as your crease looks amazingly like mine be good to see how a pro does it .
I actually learned this stuff on my own I’ve made mistakes here and there but I just keep going at it. Got me an old door from the junk yard years ago cut it up and started welding it back together for practice
Another great vid, beautiful work. I know you mentioned before about when you painted your red truck, you did 3 coats of color & 3 of clear. How long did you wait between spraying coats & how long did you let it cure before wet sanding?
It was 100 degrees in the shop when I painted the cab and the bed on my red truck so it flashed quick I waited 10 to 15 min on the color and longer if I had to tape up for the silver, went straight to the clean after that one light coat/medium coat then waited a little longer for the final clear coat
New fan here....binged watched a dozen of your videos this weekend. Great detail and the videos are nicely edited. My favorite phrase...."Here we go...." Question: What kind of welder are you using? Thanks for your videos!
Can I ask what welder you are using And what the settings are? My son took welding in high school and we have a few patch panels to do on the C10 as well!
I’m using the Lincoln pro mig 135 with gas it’s hard to tell you the settings something you’ll have to play around with it, I go from A to B on the heat and around 4 to 5 on the wire speed but this could change on different gauge metal. try practicing on two pieces of sheet metal and if you burn through turn the heat down then go with it from there
Gibson63 I completely understand! My grandpa had me welding on a trailer he was building, “just take that rod and weld them together”. Well after about 15 minutes, he came back and was admiring all my holes! I asked him if I messed it up and he said no, just a little filling welds and it would be good as new! Thanks for the reply’s and videos, I always learn something with each one
That hood is gorgeous, compared to mine. Mine's full of holes under the braces towards the back. And a repop is almost a thousand bucks. Can't find use ones in Detroit
As always, very professional work. Don't know if you are aware. Your weld shop should have "Knotted" wire wheels for your 4"/4 1/2" grinder. They work quite well for rust removal. Quite aggressive and you MUST be careful. Also found that a set of "Rota-Broach" drill bits works better.
You seem to be frugal, must of the cost in a project like this is labor (blood, sweat and tears). If I were to find a similar truck with similar flaws, what could I expect to spend (not including my labor) to put it on the road, not including a final paint job?
It really depends on how far you want to go on these trucks I took this truck further then I really want to It can run into big bucks quick but this ones for my dad
Gibson63 so Kool this one is for your Dad. My Dad gave me a beat up, ‘68 Ford F100 with a 4 speed and a 240 straight six. I put a 302 with C4 Automatic in it from a wrecked but newer model Mustang. I plan to do that again someday.

Amazing difference in welding when I look back at your videos 8 years ago!
Great job I have a C10 in Brazil I'm renovating and these videos helps a lot. Here there are no videos with so many details so congratulations for the work.
I have watched just about all your videos. Your attention to detail is equalled only by your superb skill and experience!

it was cold around these parts in the last couple days to, good luck on the rust repair man
Quality work indeed, no "hack & pack" as many others do.
while everyone else watches the stuper bowl game I've been watching this guy fix rust the right way....
it seems to me you're doing a great job brother I want you to know I've been watching all the videos thus far on this truck and I have learned so much watching you more than I have learned from anyone else. I am looking so forward just seeing the next video brother so keep it up God bless you

Man you do some nice work. These videos are helping me with my 65 stepside
I enjoy watching your work and the clear cut, positive approach. results are first class. Great to see
excellent job , it amazes me that you can find parts that old in a wrecking yard , nothing older than about 10-15 yrs here ...
Damn good work Gib. Love the way you fit those patch panels. None better have I seen!!
Really nice work! Your videos are great and show what it takes to repair it right.
You are amazing...Sure would like to talk to you about your paint procedure.
Very nice. That extra hood came in handy for sure.
Nice work brother! I've built a couple of theses trucks my self and your doing a quality job!
Have been watching your videos for the past two days, amazing meticulous work on everything you touch! Surgeon like skill on that hood! Tip my hat to you! Keep those videos coming, inspires me to keep working on my '74 C-10! Great job!

Yeah these trucks are getting harder to fine in junk yards. When one does come in I get what I can for future projects
Might consider investing in a small scale sand blaster.
Dang good job. I sure wish you was my neighbor. Sure woukd like to turn a wrench with you and learn a lot of good things. Thats going to be as nice as your red truck when you get finished.
Not going that far with this truck right now just a decent driver for my dad to Cruise Thanks man
dude i really like your vids,lot of energy and care to what you do,brought back a lot of youth when i seen you sand that nose and about 4 coats of paint on it ahhahah,had a 65 chevy i restored back in the 80's lol that damn truck had 7 coats of difrent colors on it,wasnt internet for parts back then,and scoring from a junk yard was next to impossible,lmao,keep um coming bro your doing a fine job
Hi Gibson. Good save on the hood. Looks good.
Trying to stay clear from the other evil half so a few more hundred times of watching this video should be good for me never gets old awesome
Great job as usual. Your Dad should love it.
You make this look so easy. Amazing work.
It is with the right tools??!! Lol!!
excellent work on those hood patches . I still fight with warpage in every patch I do with my old truck .
Cut and paste man.... Cut and paste... Nice work brother!!!!
Awesome work, I'm learning a lot from your videos. Keep them coming.
Really nice work on the hood. How do you replace the hood valance on a 64 chev pu?
Great work! Looks like you’re getting close on this one. If you have any more scrap pieces of the hood you cut up, I could use them to fix my ‘63. I’m in Memphis too.
excellent work Gibson!
Great work as always Gibson you got some mad metal skillz keep up the awesome work buddy👍👊
Good deal looking forward to them .
Love the videos...fantastic job you're doing on the truck....keep up the good work....
My usual comment........A pro job......
That fit up good .. you do great WORK
Cuantos meses te llevó terminar la chaperia?
Meticulous work for sure. Nice job!
Just binge watched a bunch of your videos on the blue 63 as I've just started my own 63 project tear down. What sandblaster are you using and would you recommend it?
Once again excellent work and video
Looks great. What model is your Lincoln mig welder?
Great video you always make it look easy, will you show the body work on the hood as your crease looks amazingly like mine be good to see how a pro does it .
oh man I sure hope theres more!!!
There hasn’t been any new videos in quite awhile. Just wondering how you’ve been doing.?
I enjoy your videos and your work...wondering if there is any place that sells the inside hood panel you replaced?
I’ve never looked into this part to see if they made a replacement panel, lucky I had another hood
I bet you run through some spot weld cutters! awesome job!
Yes I do keep Breaking the pin that comes out and have to fab one up I’ve Learned to drill a smaller pilot hole
Where’d you learn to do body work. I know nothing about body work and what to do first and what steps to follow so everything looks good in the end
I actually learned this stuff on my own I’ve made mistakes here and there but I just keep going at it. Got me an old door from the junk yard years ago cut it up and started welding it back together for practice
Gibson63 damn man you’re better than some actual people who do this for a living.
@@Gibson63. Wow - so simple, but what a great idea for those like me just starting out.
Nice job, looks great!
Great job. Thank you for the lessons.
Mighty fine getting close
What type of sandblast gun are you using there?
Another great vid, beautiful work. I know you mentioned before about when you painted your red truck, you did 3 coats of color & 3 of clear. How long did you wait between spraying coats & how long did you let it cure before wet sanding?

Question: What kind of welder are you using? Thanks for your videos!
Or "that's what we're looking at"
I really enjoy the vids,good job.
What is the panel on the inside called? I need to order a new one
Brother Gibson that was fine job you did on that hood. What kind of welder is that you are using?
Lincoln pro mig 135 with gas
Great work, thanks for posting!
Are you near Ga?? I have a 65 hood needing the same repairs!
Excellent work
Very nice work
Good job brother 👍👍
Great job as always !!!!!!
House long did the rust patches and removal of the inner piece take to finish
Don’t really now how many hours I got in this hood. I say 3 days off and on after work
@@Gibson63. thks, you do good work. Keep the videos coming
You are a genius! !
Job done right love it
Can I ask what welder you are using
And what the settings are? My son took welding in high school and we have a few patch panels to do on the C10 as well!
I’m using the Lincoln pro mig 135 with gas it’s hard to tell you the settings something you’ll have to play around with it, I go from A to B on the heat and around 4 to 5 on the wire speed but this could change on different gauge metal. try practicing on two pieces of sheet metal and if you burn through turn the heat down then go with it from there

Well after about 15 minutes, he came back and was admiring all my holes! I asked him if I messed it up and he said no, just a little filling welds and it would be good as new!
Thanks for the reply’s and videos, I always learn something with each one
That hood is gorgeous, compared to mine. Mine's full of holes under the braces towards the back. And a repop is almost a thousand bucks. Can't find use ones in Detroit
Lot of hoods had rust in these places a good on is hard to come by without rust, I was pretty lucky on my red truck
Yup they don't make a hood for the 60 to 61 Chevys or GMCs
Great work ! Hey brother what company do you get your patch panels from ?
Classic parts
Why fiberglass on back of the welds?
I’ve always done this for pin holes that I may have missed on the welds. And to keep moisture from coming through the backside
@@Gibson63. thanks
Nice work.
Great Job
Dang. I should have taken that brace all the way out on my hood that one time. Made it a bunch easier to straighten. I bet
I remember that video but you done a great job
What kind of you welder do you have and does it use argon?
Lincoln mig 135 with gas
the best ever
Are there any new projects in the works?
Looking for a new project Should have some new videos up soon
I enjoy the instruction but if everything is better on the other hood. Why not use the other hood😮 😅?
The other hood had a bad sunk in spot all across the middle
do you take on jobs?
can you please tell me why you fiberglass over the welds on the back side ?
I’ve always done this for pin holes that I may have missed on the welds, and to keep moisture form coming through the backside
@@Gibson63. okay thanks for the reply i will give it a try thanks again keep up the great work love the vids
You work with flux or mig!?
Mig
All said, how many hours do you have in this hood?
All I know is I’ve got two days off and on and got this far, I did let it sit for awhile for paint to dry
As always, very professional work. Don't know if you are aware. Your weld shop should have "Knotted" wire wheels for your 4"/4 1/2" grinder. They work quite well for rust removal. Quite aggressive and you MUST be careful. Also found that a set of "Rota-Broach" drill bits works better.
