Hey Chris. Those who like the “patina” whether it comes to a rusty car or blue jeans are just trying to buy “blue collar” experience that they have not earned. You’ve earned it my friend.
I remember 20 years ago, Old Navy, sold Mechanix Jeans. Ones that had fake grease stains and ones that were distressed. I went for the distressed look. I was a hit with the girls in college at the time!
I dont care mutch for cars. I startes to look on your boat engin repears and liked them a lot, and now i like cars also. You sir are a wisard with engins. Love all your videos. Thanks for sharing.
What you want for the bed electrics is called dragchain, it's a segmented loom guard. You've probably seen it already on forklifts and anything with an extendable boom. If you run a piece of C channel along the frame for it to sit in and run your loom though that should sort you out.
I like patina. The real patina. I've never understood why someone would fake it then spray shiny clear over it. On my 1967 Ford F-100 SWB it's got real patina and I'm gonna scuff it and spray flat clear on it and I'm done. It sat in a old man's yard unprotected for 30 years to get to the look it has.
You see I’m on the other side of that why not just kind of give us a good cleanup and then just do a cheap paint job so it doesn’t look like hell but that’s just my opinion. It doesn’t take a lot of money to put a paint job on there people make it seem like it’s so hard. It’s gonna cost so much but a guy could do it himself and be proud of it without spending Thousands… ask me how I know
Had a 67 Ford 500 , no rust . . put a Perkins 6354 in it , pushed the diff back to end of chassis as was planning to turn it into a tilt tray . . but just ended up putting a hiab crane on it . . actual resprayed it original Dulux red it came with that I got off from the VIN plates & had Dulux mix it up for me who understood the code
This is not the place to learn from properly. Drywall anchors is hack work. Best I can say. If you are going to do the job do it right!. Side of the road repairs aside. At a shop hack work is not what to do.
@@Clem_Kadidlehopper it's a rotted out 70s jeep. Chris posts a ton of vids and there's a ton to learn from, he does good work. Lets see your perfect barrett jackson restorations lmao
Also, the bed should have a spot that doesn't actually move for the wiring, run the bed and see what part doesn't move, I can go look at my rollback and see exactly what they do. Your bed doesn't sit down all the way cause the bed locks are bent from ppl raising before sliding it back far enough to clear the locks
I love the way u make things goods as new when they are good for the scrap dealer 🤣 i watch ur videos since years, it's always a pleasure, greetings from France.
The rollback sounds great. I love the Gus man. I'm glad he's feeling good. I can't wait for Jens big news. I definitely will be watching her channel for that.
I'm a "car guy", and I really enjoy watching Chris do things right! So many TH-camrs cut corners and do some pretty sketchy things... and having the lovely (and talented) Jenn and the Gus man along just makes for a well-done channel.
He is one of the most smartest mechanic fiquiring out ways to fix stuff .. blows my mind. That’s why I wish I had a dad to show me ways to fix stuff he passed at an early age.
Hey Chris!! I've just watched Jens video and I want to congratulate you, you'll make an awesome father !! I hope you both keep us all updated on the pregnancy much love from the UK!!
A man that knows how to run a tap and die set I get so sick of seeing people on TH-cam putting sockets on the set ups and crank away with the impacts or cordless ones. Thanks again for sharing that with everyone. 😊
I had a grey tabby named turbo too . He was the best cat ever. Very playful and nothing ever scared or startled him. He would always hang out with me in my little shop.
Hey Chris, iirc that Jeep is a limited edition 'denim' model, that's why there's blue seats and decals The seats should actually be covered in denim Wheeler Dealers restored 1 a few years back
Ugh, right? My boss in addition to one of my coworkers had 2019-ish era Rubicons that I'm sure were like $40,000 off the showroom floor. They then dumped at least another $25k each on aftermarket parts, lift kits, hideous wheels, winches, etc. Time spent on any road surface rougher than the gravel parking lot at the weekly farmers market? Zero. So effing ridiculous. I have an 01 TJ 4.0 that I daily drive, absolutely no hesitation at getting her muddy. Oh yeah - $5,000 hahaha.
I think the new ones still have built in character, but most owners do not use them off road... Rubicons and modified Wranglers are definitely no exception, I think most people just buy them because they look cool. Oh well... in the future when these Jeeps are affordable parts will be plentiful.
I seen an old video of yours I searched for oil sending unit for my 2010 Silverado an you was showing how to replace it. Love your videos keep them coming I learn a lot buddy thanks.
Dude. I’m 13 minutes in and you just cleaned out the caliper. I really appreciate you showing us stuff like that because it could really help people in a pinch. I didn’t know you could clean it out like that. I thought you had to remove the piston and hon the bore and all that stuff. I know that you are just doing a quick fix but in a pinch that’s all you need. 👍🏻👍🏻
Really like your style man. Buy more, built fortune for your children, you are a good man. Have children and build generation welth. You give us hope. Build a Family! MADE IN AMERICA!
Er... I just watchedJen's video... CONGRATULATIONS!!! I noticed for a long time, that you were both missing something from your lives... and I wasnt thinking of some extreme type of rust bucket...🙂 Now... you will have to have a NNKH 3 channel so we can stay on top of latest news... 🙂 Again..congratulations and I'm so happy for both of you!
My first car was a 78 cj7. To remove the roof like a pro, put some ramps off the back door. Crawl into the back, find the rough center and stand up. The roof will balance on you back and then just walk down yhe ramps.
Dang that would suck if that rig gets parted ,,even rusty. It would be a awesome trail rig !! 😂 i had a junky 304 3spd Laredo, it was great on the trails
Just love this channel ,you always find the right solution to fix yet another problem .Plus the added input from Jen and the Gus man ,greeting from the Scottish isles 👍👍
Gosh Chris, watching you with that top makes me think back to when I was younger and not broken and could one person K5 tops off without thinking about... gosh, where have the years gone
@@inverted311 Jeeps of that era had pretty thin sheet metal and were prone to rust. My parent's 1985 Jeep grand Wagoneer rusted out and so did my neighbour's 1977 Jeep CJ7.
Hey Chris, congratulations to you and Jen for the pregnancy, I'm really happy for you guys, it surely is gonna be something to see a lil one join the NNKH family, great great news!
WOW man, I just stared at that for 15 minutes before I hit play... everybody wanted that Jeep with a mother hunching V8 and you got that baby going with your normal cautious attack and WAMMO...dig that steering, dude was going off road more than on roading.... good to see you again, my friend Woody
From what I seen with tilt beds is a coil of wire held to the bed with a large spring with a sleeve on the wire that the spring attaches to. I don’t see why yours won’t work maybe just attach a spring to hold it up out of the way. awesome video as always!
Old Jeeps are wicked fun. Crazy ballsy to take the top off solo. I've never tried that with my CJ5. Not eough people run their Jeeps T.O.N.D. (top off, no doors) much less with the windshield folded down. Good to see you treating it right!
Great video maaan!! As always there’s no lack of motivation 💪🏼 45:50 Turbo looks more like turbo lag..!😂. Who doesn’t love a chill day turbo❤!!! I wonder what the big news could be…😮
Nothing to worry about with that rusty frame. I used to take a framing hammer with when I bought them. Knock a hole in the frame to show the seller how bad it is. Usually it’s just the inside of the boxed frame. Fix it a few different ways. Couple pieces of Angle or cut plate. A lot of times I’d raise body mounts while doing that. 🤷🏼♂️ IDK. I’LL TAKE ALL THE CJ’s WITH RUSTY FRAMES YA GOT!!!!
You should put that 304 in the other Jeep. Those 304’s are stout. My mom had one in a ‘74 Gremlin X with a Hurst four speed, factory headers, 4bbl, positraction. It hauled ass.
Man, you and Jen make the best videos. I really enjoy watching them from beginning to end informational as well as funny as hell most of the time. Keep up the great work
you guys that can make money from old junk cars are amazing... dont lose the passion. Awesome and thanks for the arm chair mechanic view... btw, have you and Derek met before yet ? I like it ! 👌
Chris: I really enjoy your videos because you get directly into the content. Congrats to you and Jen. I wish you guys the very best. Keep up the great videos
Yeah .I remember a lot of Jeeps having that kind of rust issues when working at the gas station...and nice shot of the orange Willy's...good content and thanks 🔧🔧👍
This channel makes 45 minute videos feel like 5 minutes. You just never want then to end.
Thats why i push / encourage 1 - 1.25 hour videos yet the sentiment seems to always be " oh no, this video is getting too long " ... -_-
I agree his videos are never too long
I got to be careful or I'll neglect my own work 😂

Appreciate you tuning in! Hope you enjoy your Friday
Remarkable thing is this, you're always happy and optimistic in spite of all the rust and crunchy circumstances. I really admire your attitude, dude

Because when we spend 60 Grand on our truck we don't want it to rust away but we want the look
From South Africa, if i may ask, what do you guys use for/ to patina a car, is there a special product on the market?

Patina is rust and shit paint. Plain and simple. It amazes me people don’t aim higher than that.
I no nothing about cars but I like watching your videos. Thank you.

I don't know where you got your skills,training or whatever but you have to be the best machanic on you-tube!
Hey Chris, iirc that Jeep is a limited edition 'denim' model, that's why there's blue seats and decals
The seats should actually be covered in denim
Wheeler Dealers restored 1 a few years back
The LEVI Editions had denim seats. That looks like one! Super Cool blue and white.
Marching band was a great 4 years of my life. Best thing about high school. And congratulations on the new little baby coming soon.
Back when Jeeps had some character. Not the current $100k garage princesses.

Hey Chris THOSE Denman GROUND HAWG TIRES ARE RARE & AWESOME! THAT CJ-7 IS WORTH RESTORING!
I Love JEEPS! Any video with Gus and a Jeep revival is awesome!
I seen an old video of yours I searched for oil sending unit for my 2010 Silverado an you was showing how to replace it. Love your videos keep them coming I learn a lot buddy thanks.
Glad it helped and appreciate you tuning in!
Dude. I’m 13 minutes in and you just cleaned out the caliper. I really appreciate you showing us stuff like that because it could really help people in a pinch.

i'll just say that my cousin had a cj5 with the 304 and he put side pipes on it. the sound was amazing.
Nice video as always! Jeep will be great off road as is. Rollback is shaping up nicely, love the stack also.
Only with a NNKH vlog do you get to see a classic Jeep and Mr. Gus but a marching band and the end. Great video. Thanks.

Can't thank you enough for tuning in this evening! Enjoy the rest of your day
Sad to see the elite go. Such a sweet looking ride. But glad it went to a good home.
Im still driving my 4 X 4 Opel frontera 1995 ...heavy duty and off road job ...!
I'm not even into cars, I think I just love this guys passion and his knowledge plus that lil wiener dog lol. Subbed!
Love the work you do with heavier duty trucks like the tow truck and now this rollback, maybe you’ll have to buy a dump truck to complete the fleet.
That K30 sounds amazing brother. Hell of a job doing so. Keep up the great work and much love to ya from Maryland❤❤❤
I believe 1980 was last year for 304 in CJ. But the 304/360/401 will bolt to the bell housing in any 258 six CJ. New engine mounts and your good.
Congratulations Chris
Super happy for you and Jen!
Thanks so much!
