Yeah I like the tail pipes and some round bar trim would look perfect. The muffler is probably a good idea it helps to keep the cops out of your business.once you piss them off it just wakes them up to watch you. Safe travels to you. Diff take care.it probably would be safer if build some stands to store your plastic pipes and your old exhaust pipes. Plastic pipes are highly flammable their made from oil.
We had a good scrap pile and more than once I built a new leaf spring pack, or exhaust repair. I would install the muffler shell for now then tack it. If needed, remove tacks, slide it a drill and cold chisel some pipe louvers down into the pipe. Adding stainless steel wool before getting that far maybe be an option. I needed some SS wool for a PCV vent system I was building, and found it online but pricy. Then, my wife came home after a shopping trip & tossed me a two pack of this heavy duty shiny stuff w/o any soap! I asked her, where did you find this? She told me the "Dollar" store!!! What a find! We all know glass-packs but even the mineral wool burnt out after a while. I don't know what is inside the muffler shell you have, but if empty, a bar can shove $10 Rand of SS wool inside and be ready to modify and install incase the authorities find your current system objections. In case! Enjoy the Holidays DIV. DK.
Glad that paint can exploded and made you look before the fire got out of control. I was working in my shop one day and happened to go outside. I heard the fire crackling before I saw it. A big section of the house wall was burning. Quick call to 911 and the fire trucks from 2 towns were on their way. Trucks got here and saved the basement, everything else was gone but they kept the fire from spreading.
Oh yea almost forgot !!!! Lol !!!!! The yellow lol !!!! Your rat rod Your decision lol !!!! You haven't let me down in any of your videos !!!! Always enjoy every one of them !!! Can't wait to hear and see the Ole gal run !!! Yall have an awesome brother !!!
@@ratrodsafrica lol !!!!! As long as you enjoy your truck !!!! No one else's opinion matters !!! Brother !!!! Lol !!!! I am waiting to see it on the road and hear that exhaust !!! Yeeeeeeeeeepppppp !!!!
She’s really coming along nicely Diff. 👍 The yellow never sat well with me, but I bet you that a good sit in the thinking chair, will straighten the whole thing out!
Tail pipes through the "rear valance" looking great. I would go with the truck blue/green colour with some patina to soften it up a little. Thank you for sharing Div.
The tail pipe through the roll pan was a great idea it really makes the back end look good stand out just enough, I personally like yellow but I think your right about it not helping the look of the truck , If it was me I would paint it red then fade the paint with paint thinner then paint or fine an artist at the next rat rod show paint rat rod for Africa on the spot
I use to do the same thing with my trash for burning because my late wife mother lived with us and to her trash was trash ,even in my compost. I'm liking the exhaust system! Be careful my friend , I hear ya on the hot plastic. Lol
Nice exhaust system ,a bassel would look good and go with the bassel around the tail lights in my opinion. I'm sure glad you are ready to suppress spot fires .I live on north Vancouver island BC and I am surrounded in trees and brush And we have drought conditions this year ,its seem to be getting dryer every year over here .Two years ago I replaced all the asphalt roofs with tin and put in a gas engine operated fire suppression system with nine sprinklers .It may help or at least I did the best that I could do to save the structures especially the old cars and tool .I keep two of those 5 gallon backpack water sprayers one at the house and one at the shop .I glad you and you treasurers are safe. Cheers!
I like the hub caps you had on in a couple of shots! As for the yellow paint, remove it. I would either go with the original cab color or all RUST! Keep up the great Vloging.
Another good job on the exhaust ! I love it when you re-purpose stuff ! Cops in my area don't like loud pipes either. They are pretty cool about it at a car show though. I made some motorcycle type baffles for my 4 cylinder rat rod stacks. Really improved the noise level . Keep up the good work !
It's looking great, the pipe looks excellent, the big yellow peice at the back I reckon would be better colour of the rig, but it's certainly coming together, all the best to you and your loved ones, have a Lekka one
Always enjoy watching your videos Duff…..when bending pipe you can also fill the pipe up with sand and use a torch to heat the pipe to red and bend away….the sand prevents the pipe from collapsing. 👍 🇺🇸🙏
Another good and informative video Duff, you are quite inventive. I am thoroughly impressed with your craftmanship. I like the twin pipe "go fast" exhaust tips coming out of the rear valance. Yes, the yellow paint on the spare tire cover has to go away. Many Alaskans have lots of old cars/pickups/trucks and parts in their yards.
It's another awesome job on the exhaust !!!! I was waiting to see if you were going to fire it up !!!! Sorry about the injuries from the fire !!!! That's happened to me before as well !!!! Hair spray can !!!! Not mine of course but my mom's !!!! Lol !!!! Happy that your injuries were minimal and that you were able to put the fire out !!!! Now waiting patiently for the next video lol !!!! Hope yall are having an awesome day !!! Say hi to everyone for me brother !!!
I love to see how your channel is catching on.I was one of your first subscribers and have enjoyed your videos.Very informative,no nonsense content and fun to watch.Keep up the great work!
Hey Diff. How's it Boet. Truck coming along good man. Fire a scarey scarey deal in the bush. I set the Pyrenees on fire. Grinding on my camper van and one spark wooffed it up the mountain. Nearly wiping out the grape harvest. I was bare foot and running to extinguish both ends of the fire with a hose feed from a upper stream with plastic pipe. Until that burned through. The fire people came and saved the day only by minutes to spare..it was time to leave that off grid property. They couldn't figure out what started the fire. But they knew where our started. Build a metal bin to contain your fire. Dry season coming. Build a fence around the scrap pile. No eye sore. Always a good source of spares. In the bush. Or make a frame and grow a vine up. Have a good day Diff. Stay safe. Lekka Boet Lekka.
Then you know what its like! Yes, I've got slack over time... The pit used to be deep, with proper clearance all around. Over time it filled up, the grass and stuff started growing back... It was a Wake up call boet!
@@ratrodsafrica Hey Boet. Lucky lucky the word. In summer I get some volunteer help in on my jobs. Trade for accommodation and food. Look on workaway or Help exchange. You become a host. Plenty in SA. Good luck Boet.
Great channel. I like your profound philosophy and humor. Yellow business needs something personal; that driver behind can catch the spirit, like wisdom, sign, metal 2d sculpture, QR code of youtube channel - rust/rat version, hook where you can hang signs when it is parked ...
Glad you got the fire under control before it caused bad damage Div!!! Love how the exhaust turned out coming out of that hole in the valance. I agree the yellow should go. Maybe you could do some speed holes in that section and rust it out, or even cut a section out and weld in some of that expanded metal grate/mesh looking stuff with some rust on it. Or some speed holes with the mesh behind them.. Anyways 😂 Im excited to see this thing drive Div!! See ya in the next one!!
Hi Diff. Great exhaust buile and definitely get rid of the yellow maybe rust it with a bit of yellow. Anymore fires and you going to build the Hutson into a fire engine 🚒 Take care boat.
Good video Diff 👍 I spent way too much time and effort making pipes right off the exhaust manifolds of my Ls swap into a 62 GMC truck. I must have cut tacked fit the pipe under the truck weld it and then do it all again about 50 times. But I got it done and the O2 sensors are in the right place. I had dual exhaust pipes and mufflers from the cab back but it didn't seem to make getting up from under that truck any easier!!! Batteries blow up as well as aerosol cans. Have to watch out for those as well. I've done the fire brigade before myself. No fun at all and if you say anything about it to the suspect they want you to pay a trash collector instead !!!
Truck is definitely looking good! The yellow on the roll pan is kind of jarring, I would maybe strip the paint off it and give it the rust treatment so it blends with the box. Lol, just an idea, truck looks awesome anyway! 👍
Great job on that exhaust! But I was hoping to hear what it sounds like. 😂 can’t believe you teased me like that 😂 The exhaust is what I’m dreading on my ‘61 Falcon. I hope it sounds good. It’s not a V8, but an I6. We will see. 👍🏻👍🏻!!!!
Looks great. Good that didn't burn the forest down otherwise you would have to say ’”straight from the burned grounds” if you where still able to say that. Still like it alot, but that yello bumper or spare tire cover or what ever you want to call it ”sucks”. You'll come up with something better I know for sure. 👍
Nice job on that exhaust with just scraps I laughed like hell when you slid the muffler over the pipe Haha I never saw anybody do Slide a muffler over to the exhaust pipe type so it looks like it works but it doesn't do a thing that I like the shape dual pipe right through the back it goes with your taillight the way they're oval shaped
G'day mate awesome..loving it ..yeah put some stainless around the exhaust exit to match taillights ..and lose the yellow paint on the back looks odd (just my opinion buddy) thanks for sharing 👍 👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks! The yellow will go! 😅 I don't really fancy the reverse lights much myself. Put them in to satisfy some subscribers, but might lose them down the line😂
Jou exhaust is la di da . Ek like die " exit . " agter . Die geel moet waai ....dink ek . Ek hoop ons kan 'n spin vat met die volgende video . Go Div.!!!!
Jezzez Div don’t burn the acerage to the ground,,, I one time had a empty 1pound propane canister in the burn barrel scared the whole naborhood,,,keep up the good work
I like all the fabrication on the exhaust looks great. I don't know what that yellow thing is I don't like it I don't have any suggestions on what to do with it other than take it off I have no idea what it used to be.
Great job Diff! I also set my very large compost heap on fire by accident a while back. It was almost a huge disaster. Was it not for the local farming “brandweer wa” that saw that I was in trouble. It took a day to extinguish it.
For me it seems like every time I throw stuff away somewhere down the road I wish they had it back With the price of what things cost nowadays if you get the room for it and it doesn't bother you keep it that's my Is thought
that really hurts more than it looks. i used to set fire to platick bags to drop fire bombs on my plasic soldiers. until my hand got in the way. i didnt play that game anymore. i love that exhurst outlet. but wont it vibrate on the body??
I wish those cops that is complaining can come to Pretoria, They will have a jol here with some idiots driving down the street here so frequently making a massive who-ha noise
Duf paint 🇿🇦 or🙃on the rear! Do cars have to go through a government inspection? Here in the UK we have the MOT (Ministry of Transport) inspection every year from when the car is 3 yrs old. Do we now call you Fireman Sam 👨🚒 💥🧯🤬. 👍🏴
Luckily over here cars don't need a yearly inspection! Only when there is a change of ownership they require a RWC (roadworthy certificate. This remains valid as long as you own the vehicle. I'd rather not be a fireman😅
tell you a story since we are on this subject. this proctologist a friend of mine, tired of his profession, fighting for his money with the government insurance companies, the dirty job went to his wife ,his wife hearing him out said ,honey whatever you decide you got my back, well i want to be a car mechanic. he enrolled in mechanic university. couple years later his final exam he gets 150 mark, worried he goes to his instructor who calmes him down saying, for some one who first time in my life reassembled engine thru the exhaust a simple 100 just wasn't good enough.

Yes, did end up fitting a muffler. That little 4 banger sounded horrible with open pipe😆
awesome Div...lil trucks looking good...yes rear lower panel...VALANCE we say here in Australia too

Looks great. Good that didn't burn the forest down otherwise you would have to say ’”straight from the burned grounds” if you where still able to say that.

Hi Div, nice job on the exhaust . I think you should take of the fugly yellow. Maybe just do the peroxide on it too. Nearly time to fire up the truck.

I like all the fabrication on the exhaust looks great. I don't know what that yellow thing is I don't like it I don't have any suggestions on what to do with it other than take it off I have no idea what it used to be.
Thanks. The yellow is paint that was on the metal that I used to make that cover. But agree, it must go!
Paint the Yellow Blue Green Simaliar to the Paint on the Cab
That's an option.
rust treatment and add the bar around the tail pipe opening
Thanks for the vote. I agree
👍👊
Once you get rid of the old metal, your going to need it 🍺
True that!
Dif,sorry you got burned, idk with the yellow paint might be a good idea to put reflective tape in the chevron pattern for extra safety
Thanks, I'll survive!😅
Anything but yellow, IMHO.
Dudue....now you got to build a bezel around the tail pipe outlet, so it matches the tail lights.
Would just make sense hey!😅

For me it seems like every time I throw stuff away somewhere down the road I wish they had it back With the price of what things cost nowadays if you get the room for it and it doesn't bother you keep it that's my Is thought
You absolutely right! It can lie around for a long time, soon as you get rid of it, the next day you need it!😅
that really hurts more than it looks. i used to set fire to platick bags to drop fire bombs on my plasic soldiers. until my hand got in the way. i didnt play that game anymore. i love that exhurst outlet. but wont it vibrate on the body??
Nope, enough clearance so it doesn't touch.
It was the shop gremlins that throw that can in the burn pit. Why not rusty chevrons?
Yes, those gremlins lurk here in dusty corners...think a rusty chevron could look good, if I can find one...
I wish those cops that is complaining can come to Pretoria,
They will have a jol here with some idiots driving down the street here so frequently making a massive who-ha noise
The cops here in Mossel Bay are way different than the ones in P town!😅
I would just get rid of that Spare tire Bulge. Just toss the spare in the bed, weld a flat panel in and be done with it.
I think when the yellow is gone it will look better. Lets try that first
My vote is to eliminate the yellow spare tire cover and just go with rusty finish.
I think your vote is a good one! 😅
What did u do before you became a car truck builder? Where did u learn your trade ?
Many different things over the last 40 plus years. Mechanic, fabricator, boat builder, wood worker, business owner to name some.

Do cars have to go through a government inspection? Here in the UK we have the MOT (Ministry of Transport) inspection every year from when the car is 3 yrs old.
Do we now call you Fireman Sam 👨🚒 💥🧯🤬. 👍🏴
Luckily over here cars don't need a yearly inspection! Only when there is a change of ownership they require a RWC (roadworthy certificate. This remains valid as long as you own the vehicle. I'd rather not be a fireman😅
tell you a story since we are on this subject. this proctologist a friend of mine, tired of his profession, fighting for his money with the government insurance companies, the dirty job went to his wife ,his wife hearing him out said ,honey whatever you decide you got my back, well i want to be a car mechanic. he enrolled in mechanic university. couple years later his final exam he gets 150 mark, worried he goes to his instructor who calmes him down saying, for some one who first time in my life reassembled engine thru the exhaust a simple 100 just wasn't good enough.
😂
