Hey some years ago I ran into a fella who used goats to help get rid of wisteria. A couple of weeks of rotating them goats and you saw some major progress.
Little George and I spent many weekends exploring backroads and dirt roads also during that time period.... I learned to love spicy bbq sauce and had just begun taking photographs with a film camera... good times for sure.
My oldest son is a old car fan!!,he owns a 79 Monte Carlo,he bought in 2005 and has won car show trophies on,he bought a 1981 two tone Buick Regal last year,and is now restoring a 1960's Pontiac Firebird that sat in a field for 30 years,it is now totally naked of any running parts...he bought, restored,drove and later sold a 78 Monte Carlo when he was 16...self taught mechanic...he works in a medical supply company, so proud of him,he has come a long way. He would love that truck. I'll have to show him your channel. Be safe out there.
Hi, I was thinking maybe you could name it Little George after your cousin. For the great memories with him. Great videos. I’m a subscriber I always hit the like button first. I just don’t comment all the time. Hello other Robert. Your great . I like when your in the videos . Take care, Joyce.
... I knew that wasn't the correct year hood. And when you got to explaining the story behind the reason for the earlier hood, it was very emotionally moving ... I'm proud of you for staying connected with your family in this unique way ... Best regards ...
My father had one just like that. He bought it used from a neighbor who returned to Puerto Rico from serving in the USARMY. My fondest memory is going to the drive in to watch Cinderella with my parents and some neighborhood kids. Of course there are other memories riding in the Van, but Cinderella at the drive in is the fondest.
Robert , you had right from the start just by the name of the video ! I love old vehicles of all kinds ! Easy to work on and loads of fun driving them !
The "Robert and Robert" show is very intertaining. My uncle used to have a panel truck. He used his to haul coon dogs and moonshine in it. Usually at the same time.
That's the kind of truck my grandfather would have used to get his produce from the farmers' market each Saturday for his grocery store back in the 40s and 50s. Same style. That is amazing.
My frist husband had a 1966 Chevy Panel and the same color That sure brings back memories Amazing l never thought l would see one just like his ever again...🤔
My dad, Jack was a carpet layer when I grew up in Amarillo. I remember vividly his 1 ton Dodge Panel van. Next after that was a 1964 C20 Chevy pickup. It was white over blue and he had a camper shell topper. He wore it out and next was a 1969 Chevy C20 (3/4ton), same color and the camper shell fit just fine. I worked weekends and summers with dad starting at 12 years old in 1964. Different time and different values.
We had a panel truck like this when I was eight years old. No heat. Mom had to let the sun heat it up before we went to the store in the winter time. We named it Snoopy.
Love the Truck! I bought my dad a 1965 Chevy P/U in 1980 and he had it till the day he passed away. The truck came back to me and sat for 4yrs (broke my heart to hear it run). Anyway in the end it went to my son who absolutely loves the truck and worshipped his Opa. Enjoy your truck. I love the story of the hood.
I have a '66 panel van of my own and I love it! It's been rebuilt sometime in the '90s and has a 454. It's a mean machine and I don't think I'll ever let it go. Glad to see another one, there only seems to be a few left.
That's a really great find. Panel trucks are rare. It actually looks pretty cool with the 61 hood. It makes it unique. My daily driver is an even more rare 1959 Chevy one ton panel. It's been in the family since 1971, and I have personally owned it since 1985. I don't ever plan on getting rid of it.
Good morning robert and everyone. Glad to hear the. Family story.we all need some laughter and encouragement in our lives at this time.have a good day.
Looks like you and Robert had fun exploring the new old truck you bought. Sorry to hear about your cousin, but you at least had some great memories of him. You could nickname your truck after him how nice that would be for your both. You and Robert are so much fun to watch.
Congratulations on your new farm truck. A lovely truck it is. Glad you kept your truck hood from your teen years. A nice addition. I wish you safe happy driving!
One thing for sure it doesn't take much to make you happy. That's meant to be a compliment. I'm sorry about your cousin. That had to be a terrible blow. God bless 💖 you Robert. Looking forward to seeing more of your farm and hearing more about your adventures. I like watching you and Robert together. Is he related or a good friend?
I have a 64 C20 3/4 ton pick-up that belonged to my grandpa it's all original for the most part and it has the in-line 6 292 it runs and is registered love it,nice new old panel
As soon as I saw the hood, and before your back story, I thought 'hey, that's not a 1966'. I recently had a '66 Chevy 4x4 Suburban. My first Chevy was a '56 2wd Suburban; then after I wrecked that in '67, I had a '59 panel also for many years.
I love the other Robert he’s such a funny guy 😂 Love hearing the family story, definitely makes it more special! I’m sure your cousin is looking down on you & is happy for you! ❤️
Wow! The sound of that engine firing up just brought back all kinds of childhood memories from our farm for me. My Daddy's farm truck was a 66 Chevy too.
My dear boy, didn't you already have enough to fix up?? Lol😊 She's a sweet ole truck, and I'm so sorry you lost your cousin who helped you with the other one.❤
First off I'd name it the Apache Blend. Simply because u took that old 61 hood and put it on that 66 which gives it a beautiful look. Very nice old panel truck u got there!!!
I have a 78 Chevy Big 10 with topper I call mine the beast the motor redone with less than 20k with Holley carburetor It runs well had to replace both gas tanks. But yours is wow sounds great. that motor with that Edelbrock sounds more beastly than mine very nice story that is definitely your truck with the friend story and the hood your friend will be riding with you in spirit so cool.
Love it. I have a 41 chevy panel truck. We call our latest vintage camper Ginger and my 64 Galaxie 500 Geraldine ( my granddaddy for whatever reason would ask if you wanted to kiss Geraldine, what he called his bottle of whiskey that he kept hid from my grandma. Sure wish I knew where that name came from.
Brian for the truck. Brian is a male given name of Irish and Breton origin, as well as a surname of Occitan origin. It is common in the English-speaking world. It is possible that the name is derived from an Old Celtic word meaning "high" or "noble". For example, the element bre means "hill"; which could be transferred to mean "eminence" or "exalted one".
Love the truck. Something about Panel trucks, You can haul with them then load it up and go camping. So versatile. Great score Robert. Thanks for video. Enjoy be safe and Merry Christmas to you and the whole Sidestep team. Dont forget Grandpa.
The truck is wonderful! I hope restoration is in the future for it. The Jack Danirls bottle is priceless! 😂🤣 If you stand back and look at the front of the truck, it looks like the face of a stoic little old man! I love these videos! 💕
So cool! Sorry to hear about Little George. It’s really hard when you lose a close family member. I hope you make lots of new memories in your new truck!
I had a 65 C10 with 235 straight six and three on the column. Fun times. Upgrade that brake system to a dual master cylinder. You should change the fronts to discs too if you can afford it, but do the master anyway.
Thank you for sharing this with me as it made my day seeing that AWESOME LOOKING TRUCK ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever you maybe doing next ! Please have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year ! Doing well here in Kansas .
Thank you for the update. My sons have always been interested in older cars and trucks. One of them has a Chevy pick up late 60's, and a Chevy car late 60's. My sons and their friends, my goodness. That's a good thing. I really like old houses. Be safe...
Wow robert there was one identical just like that it was down the road from me sitting back in the woods it didn't have the front fenders or hood on it well the doghouse was gone but the body was perfect and it got junked a few years ago...I have the parking lights that were bolted in the hood and they are white just like yours I have a extra set if you ever want them good video buddy 👍👌✌️they didn't come from the panel truck they were in a old hood I found an I took them out
Nice old truck i love the patina and thats a good stout engine.love the videos im in ga also i got an old 65 barracuda with patina even has bullet holes i love the storries they could tell alot like the places u go and visit.i would deff leave that patina its awesome.cant wait to see more on it..b safe.
My neighbor who's about 212 yrs old still drives his 54' Chevy panel with a floor starter he purchased brand new. Been trying for years to buy it from Him, old fart won't budge.
I’m glad to see you have a spare tire in this van! Up here the body wouldn’t be in that good of shape, it would be a rusted. Gotta love that JD bottle!
Wish that truck could talk. Whiskey bottle over flow tank! LoL 🤣😂! Cute.🤗 My uncle used to say talk to me to his eight cylinder engines! Not grandpa, uncle.😆
Cool truck! Don't see too many of the panel trucks. My Grandpa had a 66 Chevy pickup red and white. He used it until about early 80s and then traded for a brown 80s GMC. Great videos. Like seeing what you're doing on the old Byrd farm. Remember what Grandpa said. Work smart not hard.😆 👍😃
I noticed that had a floor shifter ! Does it have 4 on the floor ? Man that is one SWEET SONDING TRUCK ! With that paint job , that Engine and transmission some people would call that a sleeper ! Because could probably out run most vehicles !

Hey some years ago I ran into a fella who used goats to help get rid of wisteria. A couple of weeks of rotating them goats and you saw some major progress.
Pigs would help also
I love hearing your family stories. In this year of lockdowns, family visits are limited, so hearing stories is heart-warming.

Hey Robert, Now I know why I keep watching your videos. It is your passion for old things, Wonderful!. Thank You! Brian of Colorado.
I have 3 of those old trucks. Yours has a '61 hood and '63 grill. ENJOY IT!
I was just about to mention the hood. My stepdad had a '61 Pickup with a later model hood.
My ex husband had a 1967 C10 pickup, three on the tree too. Mint green and white, near perfect condition. Always loved that truck.
Oh dear! 350 V8 holy smokes!!!! That puppy has some power.
I want that truck !!. Its awesome. Please ship it to Denmark...Congratulations

Man I love that truck, it really takes me back.
I had a ‘49 Dodge pickup when I was 15 and miss it.
Really enjoy these video’s, thank you.
I have a '66 panel van of my own and I love it! It's been rebuilt sometime in the '90s and has a 454. It's a mean machine and I don't think I'll ever let it go. Glad to see another one, there only seems to be a few left.
You sure have a gift for finding cool machines.
She's beautiful

But yours is wow sounds great. that motor with that Edelbrock sounds more beastly than mine very nice story that is definitely your truck with the friend story and the hood your friend will be riding with you in spirit so cool.
I have a 66 panel as well. I restored it and drive it daily. I am also renovating an 1873 house in Calhoun, Ga. like the vids, keep it up!
Love it. I have a 41 chevy panel truck. We call our latest vintage camper Ginger and my 64 Galaxie 500 Geraldine ( my granddaddy for whatever reason would ask if you wanted to kiss Geraldine, what he called his bottle of whiskey that he kept hid from my grandma.

I’ve always dreamed of a truck like that.....
Oh my gosh memories love those. The front of your property is starting to look awesome.

When you look up 'patina' in the dictionary, there's a picture of this truck.
RUSTY RUDDER .... Robert’s Rusty Rudder!!

Upgrade that brake system to a dual master cylinder. You should change the fronts to discs too if you can afford it, but do the master anyway.
Definitely planning on doing that
That is what I learned to drive on
Outstanding Brother ... well done 👍
Thank you for sharing this with me as it made my day seeing that AWESOME LOOKING TRUCK ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever you maybe doing next ! Please have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year ! Doing well here in Kansas .
What a fun video. I used to date motorheads. Brings back memories. Love it.
I had a 1964 with the big 297 engine. Penelope the panel truck moved me from California to Oregon in 1976. Very fond memories.
Never a full moment! Always anticipate what you do next! Tks for sharing
My grandpa had one. I would love to get me one of them!!! The problem is I ain't no good at body work to fix it up nice....
Thank you for the update. My sons have always been interested in older cars and trucks. One of them has a Chevy pick up late 60's, and a Chevy car late 60's. My sons and their friends, my goodness. That's a good thing. I really like old houses. Be safe...
That truck is awesome.
Love your new panel truck!
I really like the panel van. I bet Grandpa was a hoot to grow up around.
Yes my Uncle Bill had one for his Upholstery business back in the 1980's in PORTSMOUTH, Virginia
Wow robert there was one identical just like that it was down the road from me sitting back in the woods it didn't have the front fenders or hood on it well the doghouse was gone but the body was perfect and it got junked a few years ago...I have the parking lights that were bolted in the hood and they are white just like yours I have a extra set if you ever want them good video buddy 👍👌✌️they didn't come from the panel truck they were in a old hood I found an I took them out
I think you should call her Bessy. It would honor her past as a milk truck.
That is a cool truck good find. Robert
That's a really cool old truck
Sounds good , looks gorgeous.
Nice old truck i love the patina and thats a good stout engine.love the videos im in ga also i got an old 65 barracuda with patina even has bullet holes i love the storries they could tell alot like the places u go and visit.i would deff leave that patina its awesome.cant wait to see more on it..b safe.
Awesome! Just luv watching this old farm come back to life. Truck is bad to the bone.
My neighbor who's about 212 yrs old still drives his 54' Chevy panel with a floor starter he purchased brand new. Been trying for years to buy it from Him, old fart won't budge.
What a great truck! Too cool!
I like your truck of course but the house is looking beautiful.
Cool truck Robert. Great find.
I’m glad to see you have a spare tire in this van! Up here the body wouldn’t be in that good of shape, it would be a rusted. Gotta love that JD bottle!
I'm jealous would love to have a truck like that same paint to
Wish that truck could talk. Whiskey bottle over flow tank! LoL 🤣😂! Cute.🤗 My uncle used to say talk to me to his eight cylinder engines! Not grandpa, uncle.😆

While the doors tell me it's truly a 66, the grill is definitely a 63 and the hood is a few years older but it looks wonderful to me.
I noticed that had a floor shifter ! Does it have 4 on the floor ? Man that is one SWEET SONDING TRUCK ! With that paint job , that Engine and transmission some people would call that a sleeper ! Because could probably out run most vehicles !
May l suggest "Robert's Dream Machine" as a name for your truck. Looking forward to many vlogs of your adventures in it.
Do keep these video's of the farm coming! They are very appreciated. The old truck will be a great addition to the farm :)
Cool panel truck. Please do get a dual master brake cylinder. If that one line goes on the single cylinder, you have no brakes at all.
