  • We are back on the '76 Silver Dollar Chevy K10 Sport Truck and demonstrate how you can do the bodywork, primer, and paint YOURSELF at home in your own garage and get good results! We start by block sanding and spot-filling the body before loading it up with primer for final block sand. We then spray a black base coat on the truck and load it up with 4 clear coats. Push perfection to the side and get your project painted - YOU can do this too!! Stay tuned for more of this old truck restoration!

    17:40 process over product, every time
    A box of hog rings and a bunch of $5 oversize bath sheets from the Aldi Finds aisle will do more to recover a car seat than any $1000+ upholstery kit from Eckler's or Danchuk or whoever. You don't need the "officially GM licensed" anything to make it *work* Same goes for the bodywork. If you know what needs to be done and you have some of what you need to do it *right* then you have EVERYTHING you need to do it *enough*

    Using body filler got a bad reputation from shops in the 70s and 80s who used it instead of body work to fix rust holes and dents. The way you're using it is entirely appropriate and the way all cars come off the factory assembly line. Very good job!

    • @randyhoepker5528
      @randyhoepker5528 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I agree! I used to detail used cars for dealers in the late 70s. I saw quite a few used cars that had rusted out and were patched with bondo, chicken wire and fiberglass. Those repairs lasted six months and the paint would start blistering. Who wouldn’t be ticked to find out they had a bondo bucket?! That is what gave body filler a bad name.
      I do my own resto work now and replace rusted areas with metal and of course you have to use some filler and short strand fiberglass to get it sealed up and smooth.
      However, there’s a lot of people out there now who are paranoid about poor body repairs. They think if you used any filler, you’re scamming them and the repair is garbage. Other people who have never done metal or bodywork think they are experts because they saw someone doing it on TV too and don’t realize there is more than one way to properly do a repair.
      I’m 65 now and don’t have that many more years left to do bodywork as a hobby. But I’ve finally got half-ways decent at it. I am restoring a 73 Dodge van and doing a custom paint job on it with metal flake and candy. I’m doing a lot of airbrush work and it has several murals. It’s looking pretty damn good too. It’s going on three years since I started it. Just have the drivers side and roof left. It’s going into its first coat of high build today on those surfaces. The rest of the panels are painted.

My dad was a mechanic by job when younger (it's a long story he had boilermaker certs, was an engineering guy but always hands on not an office dude, always had grease under his fingers and all that - just like me) anyway, he did exactly the same, we are the same way.. I learned with NOTHING. NOTHING. But damnit no matter what that man touched, and now me, it was turned to gold. It's just the way it goes, no I'm nothing like he was, but I'll tell you the best compliment I EVER got in my WHOLE life and it'll never happen again was the day my old man told me "nice work, son." You know how that felt. Damn I miss my dad. Rest in Peace Dad.

    Don’t know why🤷‍♂️ but this makes me think of way back when I was a kid and loved watching the small local body shop work. They used to do lead work. One day one of them explained to me how to find a leaded spot under a beautiful paint job. He took two magnets off the fridge, he slapped them back on, one obviously held on betting than the other. Then brought me over to the car and started showing me how to tell how thick a lead spot is. If the strong one would not hold, definitely a deep repair.
    Yet don’t disagree, work with what you have to do the best you can. If it works it works. Can you make it look great up close, yup, but can you still enjoy it driving by any 20/50 looking good and enjoying life, hell yeah brother you can.

    You have just done the very thing I had to do from the time I was a kid on my old farm trucks. And even a less than perfect paint and body job looks better than a rusty old pile of junk. My brother was a cop, and he always told me if a guy driving a old truck is willing to keep the paint and body repaired, they probably are looking after things like brakes too, and they didn’t pull a old truck that looked like the guy was trying to maintain it. But the trucks with rust holes and a different colour door, they were suspect of not being fit for the road. I have been watching for a long time, and keep watching because you show guys that they can fix a lot of their own stuff. And it doesn’t have to be show room condition, just look respectable. Good work.

    3:16 - As an expert in this pre-application mixing method, I can attest that he was accurate to within a nano-drop, if that.
    Not everyone can appreciate this level of expertise that takes us beyond "craftsmanship" and into the realm of fine art, and art is suggestive, so I'm right. That's how I know he is.
    Carry on.

    As a guy that knows crap all about painting a car I've really enjoyed this one Dalton! I need to sort the back doors on my 1980's work van and now I might just have a go myself...what's the worst that can happen 🤣🤣

    glad you're wet sanding it. I've never seen one that a wet sanding looks better than not.

    Watching this video makes me incredibly happy I subscribed a few months ago. Why? Because I'm sick of patina. IMO, patina is the sign of an un-loved vehicle. Think about it, there are channels that'll spend $10k+ on an LS swap, but they won't spend $1k on a DIY paint job. If Dalton wanted to flip this rig (he won't) it's worth thousands more now than if he just got it running and moved on to the next one like so many other channels do. Don't get me wrong, revivals are fun to watch but I'd much rather see the full story of a vehicle revival with a flip, than seeing it dumped in a tree row and forgotten all over again. Awesome content!

    I'm looking forward to seeing your truck in all its glory. It's nice to see you using the talents God gave you. I like everything you've done, but this is really nice to see. Congratulations on a really good-looking truck in the near future.

    When feeling for high/low spots and don’t quite have the feel for it, use a blue shop paper towel layer flat. It will allow your hand to flow easier and feel the waves or lack of. 😂

    Thank You Good Sir, out of all the channels I watch, this is the first vehicle to be truly restored beyond the “ will it run” video. I learned a lot from this one. Most of all I don’t know anything. So with that said,,, time to do my own. Lol 😂 Thanks Again!!! Keep-em coming.

    Thank you for your rant on just making due with what you have. Going out there and having fun. And it doesn’t have to be perfect. Great job with all your projects. You’re on of my favorite youtubers because of your approach on just going out and having fun with it. Keep up the great work.

    Ive been working on rebuilding a 65 f100, I dont have the money to rebuild it the "right way" Over 2 years of work with a little bit spent here and there its now 95% done. Rebuilt the entire thing from the ground up. I had never rebuilt a car or truck ever before. Taught myself how to weld, rebuild an engine, rebuild a transmission, rewiring, body work, painting, interior work. The entire thing has been done on a budget, I bought very few new things and the only thing I spent any real money on was having the engine block machined and the rebuild kit for the engine. The rest was either part I fabricated or sourced from pull a part or auto swap meets. Its been a fun journey and will be on the road shortly.
    It was the first time I had ever done something like this, I learned a lot from it and made due with what I had, it wont be perfect, but it will be functional and reliable.

    I can't express enough how much your story about working in the shop with your dad hit home to me. We didn't work on cars (I did in my 20's/30's and loved it though) but my did owned a small sig shop and I spent my whole young life working for & with him. It was fun and I got to spend time with him. Sure, I have a great work ethic now and could stand to be less of a perfectionist but that's why we spend our adult life on self help and personal growth right?
