    At first I saw the part of the title in the notification and was really excited for a Cummins swap update, then I saw that it is basically a recap of the whole project and I was admittedly a little disappointed because I was hoping for something new but then I realized this video is perfect to help me with something of a reality check... I'm planning out a project to take a used not running/barely running van, extend the frame, swap a medium to heavy duty pickup truck engine and transmission into it, redo the interior and possibly add a homemade bucket lift to it. Now on paper that sounds (at least to me) like a not easy but also not horribly complicated process but seeing this has given me some insights into what kind of work I would actually be getting myself into, in a small easy to digest video. Thanks for all the hard work and showing people that massive automotive projects are doable with enough time, and patience.

    I've been watching the build series for a while and to see it all happen all in 12:43 mins. It really makes me wish I had a neighbor / friend like you to help me on my projects.. I can find the great deals.. But lack the resources to push them through.. sofar on my back logs I have a 1977 IH Loadstar 1800 with an SV-304, sitting next to it is a 2004 International 6.0 diesel engine / cab (wire harness was butchered by buyer who wanted the chassis), a 2000 dodge ram 3500 diesel with bad rear axle spindle and a 1994 Ditch Witch 5110D with bad injector pump (still sitting at seller's summer vacation home for almost 5 years now).. But I gotta saw this one turned into an awesome build 🙂

    I was given a fairly low miles Jeep Patriot with a failing CVT. Cost more to fix than its worth. I did what you have done. I raised it up and rolled the chassis from a 1988 Nissan Pathfinder 2 door. V6 power 5 speed manual, warn locking hubs, 33" tires. At 7 feet tall, the hood was about the height of the roof of a stock Patriot. Lots of fun with the wiring. It stole the show at a jeep show and it was just parked in the parking lot.

    CONTENT!!! Man I loved waiting for these videos to drop. Excited for the next projects. Sure your bundled up in the shop or in front of the computer this time of year, though.

      Yeah, working outside is not very pleasant this time of year, but I'm getting some work done, albeit a bit slower than normal 😂
