Usually im at peace with the fact that ill never be rich in life.... but when i watch these videos i start thinking of how I need to become wealthy now!
I'm at the place where I have to decide whether I should buy that vacation house for the family or get one of these. It doesn't really matter how much you make since there'll always be reasons to make more. Just be at peace with yourself and ogle the toys Jay Leno can buy : )
His description of all the little details that go into picking the colors and leather, trim, and knobs is exactly the level of car designer/builder that sets you apart from everyone else, You touch everything making it more usable, ergonomic but respectful to it original design.
These builds are nothing short of moving pieces of art. The amount of detail, craftsmanship, and thought that goes into each one is nothing short of amazing. Congratulations in every way possible.
So is the price.......and a lot of that is taxes in California on everything from his building overhead to fees out the wazoo and payroll for employees who have to make enough to survive in one of the most expensive and repressive states in the country. NONE of that is this guys fault but I can't help but think he could save huge on the cost of building these in Texas making them more affordable and him making just as much profit. California does not deserve quality artisan guys like this anymore.
We're caring for this beauty for Tony and I even had the pleasure to drive it. As great as this video is, it cannot truly convey just how amazing this truck is. The color inside and out is spot on, plenty of power delivered smoothly, and handles better than a good number of the sports cars I've driven. Jonathan knocked it out of the park on this thing!!
Never ceases to amaze and gratify me that something that's essentially just a toy could be designed and built - sorry, crafted - to last for generations.
Peter Lau yeah, the super custom ones...if you are willing to take one of the more production-oriented builds they don’t have as long of a wait. Also, sometimes people decide to resell them if you keep your eyes open for that.
Man... words cannot describe how HAPPY I am that you took the time to do a video like this and geek the hell out of this truck. I really love the build, as always it is exquisite. Love the color and the interior. Well done sir, you never fail to deliver, hope to see more videos like this in the future
Where to begin…the truck is extraordinary. Especially love the backlit gauges that have digital functions - brilliant. Jonathan is a good host who explains the minutiae with controlled speech that helps viewer to absorb the details. Love the color and the 6.2L - I’d get one with 6spd manual. Amazing vehicle 🇺🇸👍
I once owned a first series 1955 which was the same body style with the 1954 grille. Loved that truck but at the time I had no place to keep it so I sold it. Have regretted it since. I love the body style and your re-creation is wonderful. If I only still had mine and could send it to you for your magic, would be great.
Wow, where do I start? I love the dash and steering wheel. The framework and driveline are absolutely beautiful and to be honest, there isn't one thing I would want to change. I don't know what this baby is going for but I betcha it's worth every penny. First-class work Mr. Ward.
I'm smitten...again! My grandpa had this very truck and the color had developed an oily blue-purple patina. Ohhhh...to have one in 'double cream': ivory points on cream body with caramel leather. Nothing like retro charm.
Boy Mr. Ward, The rendition of the ThriftMaster is nice. But, the actual ThriftMaster you Re-Created is absolutely hands down "Drop Dead Gorgeous" John, I like to think I'm as "Geeky" as you are when I build a vehicle. But, every time I watch your completed builds you blow me away. You are a "Master of the Geeky Details" Which is what makes you ICON's stand out and I mead REALLY stand out! I'm building a 1984 Dodge Ram W350 Long bed Crew Cab Cummins Turbo Diesel conversion and have been taking notes for sometime to incorporate some of "Your Geek" in my project. Always enjoy your shakedown runs and detailed explanations. Thank you for sharing another "Masterpiece" Hope your head doesn't explode from the drooling dribble compliments. 1000 Thumbs Ups !!! Thanks, Ron
Beautiful truck. Absolutely love all the hidden details. I'm sure you've discovered by now, Baer makes a master cylinder called REMASTER. Problem solved!
All your prior builds have been Amazing, but you knocked Amazing out of the Park with this one! Have a restored 54 Chevy 3100 you are welcome to use for R&D, for all your antics and design style!
You and your crew are true artisans, jonathan. I enjoy all of your builds, but this is my second favorite icon, next to the Rolls. Of course, the Rolls wasn't a complete rebuild/restore better than new, it was a survivor derelict rebuild/restore.
How can you down thumb anything this beautiful? Haters gonna hate. I, on the other hand, Love the presentation! Along with the concept, details, improvement, engineering and dedication! Bravo! Thank you!!!
Wow! Amazing attention to detail as always. Add-on suggestions: Carbon fiber replacement for the hood, fenders, etc. , heated seats, and steering wheel options, heads up display module, central TPMS, leveling headlights option, rear window glass defrost, power seats, onboard wifi, coffee cup holder with built-in heating, adjustable height air suspension, wireless charging, a hidden dashcam. That's all I can think of right now.
Like you Jonathan, I geeked out on the finite details. Love, Love, Love it. Perhaps a right hand drive version for me please. I’ll dream of cruising the streets of my home town in Western Australia. Thank you Sir.
Jonathan Love your work attention to detail workmanship is flawless also at the end you always give your phone no not many custom car builders do that will come and see u 1 day until then T C
Love the truck (like all the other Icon stuff), but especially liked the leather seating and headliner (well, roof ceiling cover). Jonathon, you make me regret more and more not becoming a millionaire. :-) Keep up the stellar work.
Spectacular in every way, shape and form. Quite certain Raymond would approve of each detail. The world 🌎 is a better place, with you and crew in it. 😎👍🏆🇺🇸 P.S. Jay Leno quiz show was a fun departure for you. JT
Honestly, out of all the icon project trucks this one the two tone paint, that awesome green yes one of the military colors coming from a military family also the hidden of the sound system that's a clever idea. I can imagine the time that goes in building one of these treasures classic trucks..😇
OMGosh! Jonathan this TR is amazing I think I have seen all your videos . This one has the most info and maybe the longest video ? Hoping your family and crew are safe from corona 19. Someday, SANTA ? As always, keep making videos we will keep watching. tim from new mexico 88337
Jonathan. Good evening. Thank you again for a wonderful work of automotive art. I pray your costumer loves the final project as much as we do. It’s awesome to see how far your leather works have evolved. Oh one last observation. I really love the sneakers 👟 what can you tell us about them? Jonathan be blessed safe and keep up the good work.
5 and half minute of the video and I am already saying to myself: Hot WHeels should do new casting of their '52 Chevy truck... awesome again, Jonathan!
I have been waiting a while for this one. I think I say that about every project video posted. Edit while watching; I don’t think I have seen Jonathan this excited for some time.
Hello again from Melbourne Beach Florida. 🌴.It only gets better. Very cool.Would love a DERELICT 1956 Nomad white&turquoise. All that's lacking is my $ $ ! Hehe. 🏄

@@njminer you can build your own, sure the paint isnt nice but who cares
I shit you not, that is my thoughts verbatim every single time I watch these videos!!!🤣🤣🤣
I’m guessing these trucks are well over $150k.

In my humble opinion this truck is the most sophisticated 3 window ever.
The St Christopher medallion. Just the ultimate touch. So cool.
A HELLO from Western Pennsylvania! Yeah, my folks would have a St. Christopher pin attached to the sun visor.
Its just unbelievable every time I watch one of these videos I want whatever he's showing me this time but this truck is right off the hook

I would never get one of these because he didn’t say that it will check your heart rate...!😕
We have that “When I win the lottery I’ll be ordering 1 of everything” kinda drooling. LOL
Love how he says he doesn’t want to bore us lol I could watch this stuff all day and geek out on what they do

A gorgeous truck; quite possibly my most favorite of all your exceptional truck builds, Jonathan. :)
drooling over this build. that color is perfect, well the spec is perfect. thank you so much for sharing.
Another work of Art, Jonathan. Love that you shared your leather craft, too!
JUST AWESOME! You're a super star with these builds!!!
Never ceases to amaze and gratify me that something that's essentially just a toy could be designed and built - sorry, crafted - to last for generations.
Absolutely fantastic again guys !!! Design and Detail rich !! Love it.
As soon as I win the lottery I'm getting one of these
Definitely! I like the old 4 door dodge pickup with the Modern chassis and diesel engine.
Good luck with that, some of his projects he says takes him years.
Peter Lau yeah, the super custom ones...if you are willing to take one of the more production-oriented builds they don’t have as long of a wait. Also, sometimes people decide to resell them if you keep your eyes open for that.
You sir are a design genius! Great looking truck and another epic ICON build.
Beyond gorgeous work as ever sir. Bravo! Love these videos and love the practically maniacal attention to detail you guys pursue with every build.
Doesn't get any better than this. They hold their value very well.
A Masterpiece. Details commited. Thank you, M. Ward.
Those gauges 😍 and just when I thought some day I could save up enough nickels and dimes, you explained the paint process.
One of my favorite build of yours. Beautiful work
Jonathan - many congratulations on yet another fabulous creation. What a stunning truck.
What a beauty! Thank you for the in depth video, sir.
Love the attention to design details. - Very nice, great color combinations.
"Pretty damn good" is an understatement. I love this variation with all the bells and whistles sans the flash. Pure understated class.
Jonathan is my spirit animal. I love everything about this build.
Continue on your fine work. I have been following you for years and you always impress on your skills and imagination. Geek on
just stunningly beuatiful and magical, thanks Jonathan.

Really appreciate your attention to every detail! Awesome truck!
This is my favourite vehicle icon has produced, it’s perfect in my eyes. The leather on the interior is going to mature and add even more character.
Great looking tribute truck Jonathan. Your design work and attention to detail is always impressive.
Just love the way the info he has flows out of his mouth an the love he has for his an his teams creation......🥴I want one 😝

Great build! Just awesome. beautiful truck inside and out. Anyone that did not like this video ..shame on you...
This is beautiful truck , luv the color,, I especially like the straight six motor . Those wheels are awesome looking.
Love what you're doing with these. Have a 51 F1 I'd love to do something like this with.
Color is incredible and the whole thing is. ❤️❤️
Spectacular ; Thanks for sharing.
How can you down thumb anything this beautiful? Haters gonna hate.

So beautiful makes me envious of the owner.
I just saw this truck in real life and I'm in love. the leather work. good lord this thing is amazing!
Everything they make is off the chain glad to see there beginning to offer more and
More vehicles
Beauty, and love that 235 Six.
Fantastic. Your work just gets more outstanding with every new vehicle.
Love it! Keep up the great work.

When I saw the tach on the gauge I was like you I laugh and said what a brilliant idea.😄
