Looking real nice hope to see a video on installing wood in bed the letters look great in tail gate thanks again have really enjoyed watching you build this truck
Gibson63 hello my name is Carlos of Brazil, Blumenau city, Santa Catarina state, I am impressed with the work and whimsy are you doing in restoring your pick up. watched all your videos you are to be congratulated.
you should be proud , youve done an amazing job on your truck! I drove a 64 chevrolet long bed similar to yours when I was in high school. Love that body style truck.......
Oh man! I'll never see mine look anything near that nice! At this point if it gets running and I can drive it, then that will be a big deal. You did an amazing job!
Good ol boy....... That ride is looking really nice. I was just watching some of your older videos last night..... wondering what you were up to lately......... Thanks for the update. Brad
the time you took to do the letters in silver was worth it. the truck is coming together super beautiful. hope you can film details on the wood floor for the bed? take care man
That wheel offset is a hard one to find. I wanted at least 8 inch wheels. And 15 inch diameter. I didn't want 17s. I have a 2.5 drop spindles with 5 lug . So I needed 3 inch backspacing on 15x 8.s and they were tight on the back. Had to roll the rear fenders about a half inch. Rear differential is a 1981 chevy..it works well. Aero wheels. 15x8 three inch backspacing. 215 60 r 15s. It was not easy to find something that would work in both the front and back wheels. Just FYI if someone else is fighting this issue. 🤪👍 1961 Chevy Apache truck. Short fleetside
Love this video series. Just excellent work. Just out of curiosity, would you be willing to share the dimensions of your shop? Looks like the perfect size.
Yes about 1in wide, I believe I can fix that with a different offset I'll have to measure that in before buying another set of wheels, the height was fine
Man, you have a "ton" of patience with that tape and it came out BEEE-U-T-FUL!!! I'm surprised you could handle the tape with the gloves on. So, the BIG question: You're just about done. "What are you going to do next"????
Yeah feels like I got a big chunk knocked out with all this body work and paint done, still got a ways to go on this one, but I do have plans for another project later on
You are doing a fantastic job restoring this truck, my hats off to you on an excellent job!
Despite that you don’t have a paint booth you really do amazing work
That truck is a jewel! What a beautiful job you've done. Hats off to you! Thanks for the video.

Gonna be a awesome truck. Your videos have been a great help with my first build, keep em coming.
Looks fantastic! You really did a phenomenal job on that truck.
So nice , those colors look so good together , your attention to detail is fantastic
Top job mate! Any body shop would be more than proud to put their name on that. High fives and beers all round!
Awesome. Scary moment setting the bed on. Always gotta have somebody you trust. And strong.
Oh man! I'll never see mine look anything near that nice! At this point if it gets running and I can drive it, then that will be a big deal. You did an amazing job!
Great work.
Your truck is pristine!
Beautiful truck ! I really like the cut and buff as well as the fit and finish ! Too bad the roads take to it !
Very nice. Good idea on taping the letters. That's tedious work.

Another great video!
Looks awesome! KEEP IT UP!
You are the man, bud.
great looking! Thanks
sure looks awesome
OMG. You're never going to want to drive it now. I'm rebuilding mine as a daily driver.
Great job!
Beautiful workmanship! What are you thinking about for wheels - classic steel/hubcaps or chrome?
I'm still leaning towards the chrome custom wheels but still haven't made up my mind
awesome job. .it's getting closer for that ride down the street. ..were the tires to wide...were they ok on the height
Yes about 1in wide, I believe I can fix that with a different offset I'll have to measure that in before buying another set of wheels, the height was fine
Nice work sir.
What's the colors codes the you use the red and silver
Totally awesome!
You've done a great job through the build. That tank will be a good size , how many gallon do you think it is ? Looks Great!
The measurements i got was from a 19 gallon tank I did change up a little on the slope, so it's somewhere around there

Probably no chance of gravel or building supplies being tossed in that bed.
David Isachsen lve hauled a few chairs and a tent to a couple of car shows but that’s about it
Gibson where did you find the tailgate flat bars you replaced ,they look s/s or chrome Thanks
These are the tailgate chain assembly bracket I got from brothers I sanded and polished the top part of the bracket
Parabéns belo trabalho....
Fantástico 👍🎖
Vuen travajo 👍
Wow, what a pain
Wasn’t that bad turned out great thanks for watching
