Love your videos! Keep up the good work. You're like the skillful, patient uncle I never had. Thanks! Great explanations, no foul language, patience, awesome editing, and you're really good at telling us what you're doing.
I have a 1963 gmc stepside I'm working and I swear your videos are so helpful. I have the same rust spots u have so thankyou and keep the videos coming. much love and respect
Thanks for making it clear. I am glad to know what is in involved. It makes me glad I passed on a 65 c30. Everything is gone from the windshield edge up past the drip rail all the way across.
I did a front above door roof replacement from a 65 C-10 and grafted it onto my 65 Suburban. the front lip you are replacing was shot on mine to. This was not easy as I replaced the who section then spot welded to the inner section. Thanks for the post once again and your fist build videos have helped me more than any on You Tube.
Hi brother i see your EXELENT WORK!!! In Buenos Aires Argentina. You have an exelent Hand for this job. Congratulations!!! Thanks for teach us your BIG BIG TALENT!!!!! God bles you so much.
I love your videos. Awesome content. I'm also in Tennessee. I've got a 63 short bed fleet side. I'm in Chattanooga. I wish I could hire you to fix my truck up
Thank you for going through the entire process. I have a 64 C-10 that I have some of the same issues on, these videos are a GREAT help to give me an idea of what I am getting into before I start the process.
Gibson63 - What a service you are providing to other builders! I loved following your first build and this one is just as interesting. This from a guy who's building another cruiser vs a restoration (and it's a Ford!). Your work is truly inspiring. Thanks so much for sharing your amazing skills.
I must say you do fantastic work I greatly appreciate watching your videos I'm restoring a 1965 GMC pick up truck and learned so much off your videos thanks a lot for sharing your skills and knowledge to us ! keep making theys great videos!!! cheers from London Ontario Canada!!!!
I'm not brand new to body work, but am by no means accomplished with it yet, as a 'do it yourselfer'. Watching your videos helped me to see the different strategies one can employ toward solving something. Due to the lack of experience hours under my belt and no formal training in school or via another person, my thinking tended to be linear or inside the box, if you will. Watching you solve issues through creativity and innovation is inspiring opening up more possibilities in my own mode(s) of thinking. Just wanted to say thank you for the excellent vids.
hello, just wanted you to know you inspired me to tackle repairs on 66 fleet side that I never would have tried before , they worked out great for me , inner outer rockers floor pans dash rust holes, cab corners, thanks for some good videos .
great work man as having a 1965 c10 short bed step side that needs some rust repair cab corner floor braces you keep my interest going I enjoy watching your videos thx
Man, watching these videos has got me wanting one of these 60-66 Chevy trucks, great lines on them. My parents had a stock, unrestored '53 five window when I was a kid and a good friend's family had a hotrodded '69 stepside. I like all old American iron the same, whether GM, Ford or Mopar, but I have to thank old Chevy trucks for getting me into cars in the first place. Definitely need to own one in the future but I can't begin to pick a favorite generation, they're all great. Nice work in this video as usual.
Fantastic job the way it's suppose to be done.You cut it out didn't just fill it looks wonderful. I'am new to your channel and learn alot great tips for my 63' Chevy Nova.Thanks for sharring God bless 🙏💜
Very nice work man, watching you makes me want to up my own game, there's nothing like shiny new metal when there was just a big rusty hole. Look forward to your next vid. 👍
Great work, I like your style to tackle and complete one task after the other. Thumbs up and subscribed. Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Germany.
I've binged watched all your videos and I'm beyond impressed. Your feel for metal is a real joy to watch. A true craftsman. And this is your "hobby"? Incredible. If I ever need welding done, don't be surprised to find a slightly drenched Irishman at your door who drove across the Atlantic. With a few crates of beer in the back of the car of course. :)
Love your work! I'm gonna be getting an inspection camera later on to use inside all my panels to see what's going on in there. I'll also use it on my fuel tank when I clean it out.
Nice work as usual mate. You're lucky you still have junk yards to get panel sections like that. Most of our old GM, Ford, and Mopar stuff got crushed and sent to China over the last decade or so when scrap prices were high. Very little old tin left laying about.
You should spray some epoxy primer in around those seams, before you seam seal it. You've done such a great job on those patches, might aswell have them last alot longer. Great work!
Gibson63 Well, you do a hell of job! I really enjoy watching your videos You were responding to another person that you have a Lincoln 135 mig... Is that similar to the Lincoln 140? Im in the market for another welder...how do you like the Lincoln?
Looks good Gibson, I haven't started stripping my top yet, I hope it aint that bad, aint a lot of donors round here . You lucked up like a big dog getting those donor pieces.....
You are very lucky to find those junk yard donor parts,, I won't be that lucky and will have to fab my patch panels for the area over the windshield! any tips would be appreciated Thanks
As always, very nice work. That one "looked" like a tough one. The way you do this metal work "as a hobby", I would love to see your framing work !!! ;o)
You made a nice job of that mate. Have you ever tried filling the job with lead? I have used lead loading on some classics and it's not as hard as some would have you think it is. Makes a great job of seams and joints like the corner of Windows,sail panels etc. The best thing is it does not crack with flexing,door slamming and stuff.
I'm working on a 61. During transport from Louisiana the entire cab top separated and flew off the truck. The transport driver never knew it happened. Or maybe he did but didn't want to admit that he just left it in the road. Anyway I have an even bigger job of replacing the entire cab top outer shell. ugh!!!
When you seam seal the drip rail on the top of the cab, what do you use and how much? Eventually i need to do the same thing as this video and I want to do it right like you, thank you so much!
For such a straight truck it must have sat in the worst place ! Your patchs on the truck are coming along beautifully ! Was this a one owner when you bought it ?
Did you keep the roof section of those pieces you got from the junk yard? the top of the cab comers near the drip rails. I'm restoring my 65 and the roof is shot on that corner. I'd love to have those pieces just to see what I need to fab in order to make a set for myself. Love your channel! Awesome work
Love your videos! Keep up the good work. You're like the skillful, patient uncle I never had. Thanks!
Great explanations, no foul language, patience, awesome editing, and you're really good at telling us what you're doing.
All I can say is you must have the patience of a god! Beautiful job as usual! You tackle stuff that would send the rest of us packing!
Amazing that you were able to find those corners at a junk yard. Fantastic work!!!!
I have a 1963 gmc stepside I'm working and I swear your videos are so helpful. I have the same rust spots u have so thankyou and keep the videos coming. much love and respect
Thanks for making it clear. I am glad to know what is in involved. It makes me glad I passed on a 65 c30. Everything is gone from the windshield edge up past the drip rail all the way across.
You would make a great teacher. Your patience and knowledge is fantastic. Just a calm and deliberate manner getting the job done. Really inspiring.

I'm jealous. all my junk yards around here can't find much before 90's vehicles.
Very nice,love to see craftmanship........I'll be doing the same repairs on my Resto-Mod-Hauler!!!!Luv all pre-1970 Trucks of all kinds!!!!!
Thank you for sharing; I am fixing to start the rust around the windows on my Dart. This will be extremely helpful to me.

That is looking good.
your very skilled at this

Nice work as always man! It's gonna look nice!

Andrew Wilson Never tried lead before, I used seam sealer on my red truck it would be good to try on something later
Gibson63 give it a go. Eastwood do a good starter kit. You easily got the skills to make a great job of it. Also make a good video.
great work, good videos
damn good work man im gonna move to your town and you teach me lol .. very impressive
now that's impressive work !
Amazing, America is beautiful no doubt!!!
Educational as allways.

looks great !

Nice job .
Very nice work.
Hey! You don't use a welding hood ? Will the mess your eyes up ? You do good work hope I learn from you
Good stuff! Thanks man!
Thank you.
Hey Gibson. Love your work and all your videos. What mig welder do you use? I am having trouble welding sheet metal without blowing through. Thanks
Patrick Christie I'm using the Lincoln 135 mig welder
Nice !
How much would something like this repair cost ?
For such a straight truck it must have sat in the worst place ! Your patchs on the truck are coming along beautifully ! Was this a one owner when you bought it ?
Gibson what type of welder do you use and is it tig or mig ?
Hey Gibson. How much money do u have just in body parts? I"m 71 Z-28. Thanks for great work.
Did you keep the roof section of those pieces you got from the junk yard? the top of the cab comers near the drip rails. I'm restoring my 65 and the roof is shot on that corner. I'd love to have those pieces just to see what I need to fab in order to make a set for myself. Love your channel! Awesome work
Nike2141 I cut these off a cab in the junkyard I believe it went to the crusher shortly after
I'm about to start a 72 chevy
Jay Till Thanks for watching good luck on the 72
Awesome job Brother! >
I see why you need glasses! Lol good work though!!
Sweet man
the body man of you tube .. love it..what gas mix do you use for mig/
25% carbon dioxide and 75% Argon. Lincoln meg welder. .025 wire
What did you do for drip rails? Did u seam seal below drip rail or just bondo...I guess. Mail on ur red truck my question
I steam sealed the drip rails on both trucks all the way around and on the patch panels I welded up
Gibson63 do you know what gauge metal is on that truck?
have a64 and no junk yard has anything where I'm at where would be best place to get after market panels you think
Scott Maxwell several places out there I use classic parts
Moving at a good pace. Do you have a completion date in mind?
jeff lindsey don't really have a date in mind
I always buy a parts truck - cheaper in the long run.
looks like a Michigan truck lol....i hope it didn't cost more than 500 or 600 bucks!!!
thatswhite1 this pickup is straight out of Tennessee
@@Gibson63. wow that thing looks pretty rough for Tennessee your doing great work on it!
What brand welder are you using sir???
Lincoln 135 mig
@@Gibson63. thank you 👍🏼
