    That freeze frame of hugging your boy hit me in the feels. Goes to show where your priorities lie. Not only are you a great dad, but you don't mind showing it. That moment could just as easily been edited out and saved for your own personal use but instead was cast into your already great vids. Your family is a shining example for the rest of us to see.

      23:10 I'm British - my father never hugged me or told me he loved me, although he did shake my hand once - that's why some of us come across as a bit cold sometimes. This was the 1960s so I think that sort of nonsense is passing nowadays here. I'd be interested to here from Americans my age, 60+, how their fathers were.

    That is an excellent rig. The condition for a 1978 ? Score ! I've owned many SB V8 Fords over the years, the 300 I-6 was the true workhorse of the gas powered fleet. They were used in tractors, farm equipment, generators, dump trucks and more, then some. I love her as a survivor with the clean up. Keep her as she is appearance-wise. Not too many know what a basic work truck looked like in 1978 !

    I think the weathered dinged thin paint look that it's got going on looks pretty cool to be honest and it makes it look like it's not been abused but also like the owner isn't afraid to actually use it.

    Looks awesome. I'm a Chevy man at heart but I really do love the style of these old F100s, and that 6 shooter was hard to kill. I had a buddy who sank his deep in a waterhole. Took over a week to get it pulled out, but not for the lack of trying. He ended up lifting it straight out with a crane. He changed all the fluids a few times. It sounded like a Cummins diesel from then on but it ran another 12 years until he sold it. Will probably outlive us all.

    I am loving this series! Other than mine was a 400 with a C6 auto, add a saddle blanket seat cover, a set of white wagon wheels wrapped in BFG Radial T/As and you have my first truck in your possession. Bringing back some serious memories. Good stuff, keep it up!
    Side note: Keep loving on those kids and getting them involved. Maybe let each one pick a build and direction for an upcoming series. They are only kids for a little while and these are things they will remember and cherish forever. My oldest is my camping buddy. We built my old Isuzu Trooper into an overland rig (before it was popular) because she loved backwoods camping. I thank God everyday for the relationship we have. Now that she is in college we have a lot of stories of adventures to look back on and thankfully she still wants to hang out with the old man. I also (because God has a sense of humor) have a four year old daughter. My wife doesn't understand why I am constantly pulling her into my projects and taking her camping and hiking even though she is a girly girl... I see her smiles when we are getting outside of her comfort level and hear her laughter. I may have to take her to get her nails done after going 4 wheeling cause the mud ruined them, but she will tell everyone she talks to about how much fun it was. lol
    Waiting for the next notification bell. Till then I'll be in the garage tinkering. Cheers!

It's like there wasn't any clearcoat sprayed over. The paint would get really chalky over time. Your truck reminded me of that. Great show!

It’s informative, entertaining, funny and ultimately uplifting. Probably not.
