Budget Build! $119 PAINT JOB For My Old Chevy Truck
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ธ.ค. 2020
- My brother bought my 1987 Chevrolet k1500 I picked up in Missouri to get back home from a trip. I'm going to surprise him with a quick makeover/budget build before he picks it up! I found a $119 Acrylic Enamel paint kit on eBay I'm going to use, as well as put on new tires and wheels. I'll also cover how to set up your spray gun, how to mix paint, and some general do's and don'ts for auto body repair I've picked up over the years. I'm no expert, but if you want a solid 23 foot paint job, here's your video!
The paint guns I used:

This is the only guy who consistently makes hour long videos that I actually sit through and watch the whole thing every time.
Exactly right!
I agree!
he's good for sure. but you should also check out Andrew Camarata
I sometimes think he is channeling Squirrely Dan when I listen to him.
Yes, agreed, very entertaining.
The fact that you're letting the kid help is so beneficial for his future cool dad
Dang skippy! Way to go Man.
Working in my Uncles garage at 12 gave me skills I still use today!
Kids now just play video games,they don't know anything else
The best part was the "hey buck you missed this over here you going to come back here" ok let me keep recording. LOL
Great stuff,he will never forget helping dad doing things together and making something look cool at the end of the day,rare to see , most kids playing with phones and sitting on the couch
I think I speak for everyone when I say I sure wish I had a brother like you.
Enjoy his video very much
@@gregwright7738 How about twins...
He said 'likes to pass in the ditch' and I felt attacked 🤣🤣
Right? My brother is a piece of shit 😂
I aim at being a Brother like him!
I agree, these are some of the best DIY videos out there. Not only does he have a great sense of humor, it's clear to me that he takes pride in his craft and he comes across genuine to me. There's nothing not to like about this guy. Bentley is fortunate to have such an awesome dad!
"Who cares what anyone else thinks? You got it on the road and you're enjoying it." - BEST ADVICE EVER GIVEN
If you can do something yourself then there's a certain pride in that.
"How's your arm?" "Tired!" "Well just keep on going." You sound like my dad when I was growing up. Make him tuff!
bingo
I thought he was going to tell him to stir with the other arm. That's what my Dad would have said. 😅
Just slap some dirt on it
Paint preparation and stirring is tough and unpleasant work. Child labor is the obvious answer here.
@@ViceGripGarage I was expecting you to say something like, "Paint fumes aren't good for an older feller to be breathing, so I'll let my young son mix it instead." LOL
He’s a humble person who knows his passion and does a great job explaining everything he does
Would love to have seen your brothers reaction to the white and red pinstripe for your dad. Looks great for 119 bucks. Just picked up my great grandparents 1955 Packard Super Clipper.
I came for the square. Then I stayed for this guy sense of humor😂
welcome to the channel!
Bro me too idk why I like this content so much I subscribed after 1 minute of giggling
"Who cares" why you stayed.😂😂😎
Same here, now a guys watched almost all the vidyas.
Same here!
The wife's heat setting is the most real thing I've heard a long time. I felt that description.
Yep. I’m thinking of putting my thermostat in a locked safe!
Yeah, they like that thermostat set to spontaneous combustion.
@MJW Noname this is why I made sure my truck had dual climate controls and heated seats.
I didn't have that problem. I worked in a foundry the heat didn't bother me. We'd be going somewhere in the truck,she'd complain about the heat. I finally told her the heater control was hers she could do what she wanted with it. Problem solved.
@@fredshipp3809 I've done that and then ended up roasting while she was still too cold. Got dual climate and heated seats and solved the problem for the most part.
Here’s a tip with no running water; blue window cleaner with added 10% acetone. Spray on, wipe to dry. Do it again. Great prep when you can’t wash. Prob not good method if you’re going for a riddler award, but get something one color, it’s worked for me for 30 years.
I did one paint job, back in the 90s, had a car i needed changed color wise, drove to an old abandoned factory, parked in a covered shipping truck dock, and at 11pm taped up the car, and sprayed with about 29 cans of gloss red, no primer, no sanding, spent 3 hours painting and another 2 hours swcond coating it. Sat up on the truck dock and watched the sun start to break the horizon over the bay, then untaped (agreed best part of painting) and drove off in a glossy red car, actually looked extremely good considering.
Went back to the street races on geary blvd the next night and re-raced the same guys i had beaten just 72 hours earlier and took them again, good times in my 20s, memories we take with us to the grave.
Did you spray paint your face too so they didn't recognize you? 😂
That’s cool. Have to try and make a few memories like that
Now we need the “giving it to your brother” video.
I've seen his brother a couple times on different videos, my guess is, he'll take a look, nod once, get in it and drive away
The only TH-cam channel that I watch the commercials, to help the guy out.
Same just pretend i didnt see them
110%
Same , anything to help keep the content rolling in.
Nice job Derek! One of the things I truly enjoy in your videos is the way you appeal to us middle income viewers! So many other channels assume us viewers have endless budgets where you are more realistic! You get things done affordably, many thanks for that! As well as teaching, they're fun to watch! Thanx for the entertainment!😊
in 2019 i was diagnosed with cancer. long story short, during my treatments, when i was too sick to get off the couch, this show kept me entertained for many, many hours. i've watched every episode. well done,
I want to see the video of the look on your brother's face when he gets that chebby truck
His face will be the expression he always has -__-
Yes, need to see at least a picture!
😎
Yes. We need a reveal video.
agree
I bet dad's old paint scheme might just get a fellur a little softened up.
“I’m not a professional”
Proceeds to explain every single solitary thing you need to know to start painting cars. I just love that I can watch this channel with my wife and daughters and not have to worry about foul language. This guy is a great father and excellent role model.
For this alone I'd rent a space so I could repaint my car. Between seeing this and other people using a roller to apply paint.
REAL REALITY TV!
Netflix would just ruin it .
Perhaps on Discovery, kick out Mike Brewer...
I like it just the way it is. Sometimes when you find that nitch just stay with it.
I think that people in general can learn something by watching his videos and that is how to be real and honest. Often times guys forget how all this got started and they act like they're building an airplane or space craft.
You had me at exaggerated "Minnesota" lmao. Love the video and your over the top "IDK 🤷🏼♂️ I do what I do."
Merry Christmas to everyone at Vice Grip Garage and everyone watching these wonderful videos.
Merry Christmas!
Merry christmas!!
Thanks
Merry xmas
Marry Christmas
"Who cares what other people think?" Best advice ever...
Amen. Your rig. Your money. Your way.
Absolutely!
Happy Holidays!
😎
Live a contributing life, don’t live a comparative one.
Just like Dave Frieburger,& Steve. Yeah the BBQuda looked like hell. But they still were driving a 68 Barracuda.
Its gonna turn heads anyway so exactly who cares
" I'm not a body guy"....proceeds to give the most understandable, and comprehensive instructions I have ever heard on how to paint a car. Thank you, sir!
My husband wanted to watch your video but quickly fell asleep. I watched the entire video because you made me laugh so many times.
I am not the least bit interested in painting a truck, but you have a magnetic personality. I could not stop watching! I bet you are a joy to be around.
Thanks for being you and making me laugh!
Had me sneezing coffee with "H likes to pass in the ditch..." Pure Derek gold.
A fresh VGG, A fresh pint of ale, and a fresh idea on painting my sexy old pickup in the driveway. Gonna be a good day!
It's cool to see you and your son working together on this. It reminds me of all the work I got to do with my Dad. He has and keeps teaching me a lot of things I don't know. Thank you
This was the first video of yours I ever watched.
It was about two years ago, and I still enjoy watching it.
I don't mean to hurt a guy's feelings, but you did one hell of a job on that truck.
@@jontrudell7529 feel free to share your TH-cam works ... actually don’t bother ngaf
amen! he downplayed it....then panned the camera over it....beautiful! i think anyway.
Worst Body work ever I've had to fix and work on trucks that people like you have done
@@alangoostree7618 does this kind of paint job really not last?
Am I the only one that wanted to see your brother's reaction when he came to pick up the truck?
me 2
Nope, we all want to see it too.
Yes please!
Yeah.
Especially when he'd say " why did you made a three-days painting job whereas I'll crash the truck in less time ? "
I fast forwarded to see it and no brother. Damn!
I wish my neighbors kids were like that kudos to your son. They're still playing with skateboards and he's actually doing cool stuff like I did and you did and enjoys it
All I can say my friend is you must really love your brother because you put a lot of work into that truck there's a lot of love their peace man
we gotta see the reaction when your brother sees it for the first time
A very large group seconds that idea.
I fee jipped not seeing it! Hope you filmed it.
That's what I was hoping for at the end.
Indeed!
Yeah dude we need a reaction video! I'd LOVE to have that truck!!!!
Derek is the vehicle “Bob Ross” that we didn’t know we needed.
Red green
Best way to describe him haha
😆🤣😂
Best comment I’ve seen in a long while!
Amen to that.
I love seeing kids work with dads
If either of my brothers bought me a cup of coffee, I’d fall out of my chair. You’re a good man.
So, my girlfriend just said, "you better not watch the new vice grip episode without me." Think she might be a keeper
Put a ring on it. Haaa
Silicone ring
Maybe she’s keen on the big D? You can see his a pure love machine 😉
If she gives you 10mm sockets for Christmas you'll know she's the one.
If you think about it. Not really
I wanted to see your brother getting it. It was like watching a movie and getting up and leaving 10 minutes before the end.
Man that rig went from a farm truck to a goin to town truck real quick! I wish I coulda seen your brother reaction. I bet he said "ILL BE DIPPED"
This summer I did a little repair over both of the rusted wheel wells on my 2005 Silverado. So I was particularly interested in this episode. I learned a lot for the next time I tackle something like that. Thanks a bunch Derek.
"... so I've wrapped everything of value in plastic, as you can see ..." *pans camera to show literally nothing covered in plastic* 🤣 🤣 I love Derek's sense of humor
Literally skipped to that part lol
Ikr. I laughed my ass off, that is so me
That was my favorite pan of all time lmao
33:52
We're you joking about the meaning of Autobahn?
One of my favorite shows . Who needs cable when we got you .
Oh, I still need cable. VGG fills one hour a week of my free time. And I'm retired, so I got a hunnerd more to fill!
I don’t watch regular tv anymore! Just TH-cam. Wealth of knowledge on here if you find the right channels
My friends in the painting business have a term for what you are doing on this truck, when they know that certain jobs does not require a full professional paint job, normally those jobs are usually free or low quote to help people that can't afford a Pro-paint job. The boss would tell the Painters in such cases, "Just do a "boom bam thank you Mam" on this one! and they know just what the Boss means.
As a thrifty person who used to paint a lot of cars, I like to fold the paper to the inside when masking (30:56) so I don't need another piece of tape to hold down the flappy bit. Great channel!
I think most of us fold masking paper inward
I have been around body work almost 35 years you are the only one ever too tell people and show them the truth about a quickly paint over looks dang good by the way keep on keeping it real !
Not to bad cosidering
Bad Chad, the best
Thank you! On that “you don’t have to spend thousands” us salt of the earth folks appreciate that!!
Finally, someone who speaks American.🇺🇸🙏🏼
“She’s rougher than the Dixie Chicks’ career..”😂
My wife and I just like watching your videos thanks Derek. The information you provide is very beneficial in the projects you do are fun and very entertaining. And we appreciate seeing your family.
Your so called "Rough" job Derek is better than many costly efforts. Hope your brother appreciates your generosity, well done.
1,991 reasons why I love this channel, thanks for all the content Derek I speak for everyone in saying we love you and this channel!
Amen!
😎
Damn straight!
Damn good job.....really turned out! Ur boy is a good hard worker ,taught well.
The best part of the video is little Bentley seeing and assisting with your kindness to your brother who you like half the time, LOL. Seriously----a great lesson for him and you're passing on your generosity to another generation. Oh, and the tips in the video are awesome too.
Agreed totally about building family by doing the right thing :) I will do my best to "one up" Derek when I finally repaint my '97 Pathfinder (I call it the "Patch Finder") Black Obsidian --- Oh let the dimples shine on!
Just imagine when the kid uses the lingo without knowing the actual units of measurement etc. Confusing way to learn but I'm sure they'll learn to sniff out the BS :)
"This thing is heavier than Rosie O'Donnell..."
I am now officially a subscriber for life.
“Unfortunately fellers, you might need to read some instructions...” that hurt me as much as you saying it probably did.
The first thing is always throw out the instructions the second thing is spend the whole day trying to figure out how it's done third is digging the instructions out and smooth out and read 😂
Totally optional.
He did a scan on the constructions.
@@jimo2627 lol yep
It doesn't matter how many times I watch this, I still get a great laugh, excellent inspiration, and top quality content from ya man. You keep it simple and very mindful on being budget friendly for the typical dude. Keep kickin butt! 🤘
Derek . . . much appreciate this video. I have a '75 4x4 squarebody and it needs paint. It's a California truck so minimal to no rust and the body of in great shape. I love the idea that I can put a decent paint job on it without burning hundreds of hours. Thanks!
“I’m gonna cover everything of value”(covers nothing) that looks like heaven to me🤣
I love that truck, I wouldn't mind having that as a daily driver. Paint; well I'll be shipped.
@Brock Main3 that not a 305, never made 305's with the newer valve covers
@@MrJeep75 it is a 305.
Ah 305 tbi yes they made those love how people think anything with centerbolts is a vortech! But yes centerbolts started mid 86
If you close your eyes you think you’re listening to the red green show. But Derek is just awesome with his videos. All of them.
Derek can make even mundane tasks look interesting. I really enjoyed his trip with the Model A.
Little man has quite the work ethic! Nice to see this day in age!
"Been stuck on wet grass" LOL. I think BF Goodrich enjoyed that.
Tennessee alabamas haha
Both of those was had me lol!!
Hey Derek, Really enjoy watching you videos. They remind me of my brother and myself when we were growing up 50 + years ago. I watch them a lot in my shop while I'm working. I'm going to start watching them from the start again. Like the cars, they don't go out of style. Stay cool brother, don' t stop the life style.
I'm a disabled vet. Been I'll last few years. You get me motivated to get in the shop. Ty friend!
anybody else get the feeling Derick watched allot of Red Green specials in his day
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was just going to post that lol
I think red green is his dad
If they don’t find you handsome, they should at least find you handy...
Dustin
There’s just a certain smile that comes across a guys face when that intro hits 🤟🏻
Agreed.
you got to love this guy. I started watching Taryl fixes all, but after watching vise grip garage he is much more diversified
That's awesome, man!! I have 5 older brothers, and I will say that I wish I had one like you. I depend more on my close friends than I do them. So, my hats off to you for doing this for your sibling. And thanks for the video.
I dont have a jealous bone in my body but i cant help feeling a bit envious of people that are close with their brothers, i have a brother and we have never been close,hes judgemental and hateful and just a pain in the neck,my best friend on the other hand,i would take a bullet for him anyday,funny isn't it?
"The important thing is you got it on the road and you're enjoying it." Well said sir. Bought my first C10 in Montana during Covid and drove her down to Texas with some pretty interesting hurdles along the way. Couple break downs, wrenching on highways and in O'Reillys parking lots later, we made it home to Austin. Your show inspired me to learn more and remain calm when things break and make it work however you got to to get her on the way. Thank you sir.
Awesome. I'm buying my dad's ole k20 back from his sister that's in Montana! Plan to do what he did. But stick with the original colors
Jack, how's the truck runnin'? Have you thought about doing some bed liner? If so, whichever product you choose, I would do multiple applications.
I've used old newspaper for about 20 years painting my vehicles. The most important thing to remember… The comics go on the passenger side and the sports sections need to go on the driver side.
I think you meant the drivers and drinkers sides.🤣
@@maxhammontree3169 lol
Bro!
The "Fleet White" Evilbay paint kit is now $400!!!
You boosted that color to the moon. That means your channel, you specifically, are investable. Your name alone brings value to anything you use. Well done brother
You got it out on the road and your having fun amen brother
I was looking forward to seeing his brothers reaction to the truck at the end... considering the paint and sticker reminiscent of their father and all....
His bro is taciturn in the extreme! He says nothing most of the time...which I find funny in itself!
Also couldn't wait to see brother's reactions too. Still super video.
@@hamonryechinaski180 I thought he had two brothers? The big one, that works on trains, and doesn't say much, and the Other one, kinda stocky, smiles a lot. As you may have noticed, I am horrible with the descriptions. Sorry to the brothers If I offend.
I wanted to see his brother's reaction too. Wasn't this video all about that? Please give us something. Anything. Even a comment about what happened.
Wouldn't have been much of a reaction is why, neither of his brothers are particularly excitable guys lol
I like how everything of value in the shop is neatly tarped over.
The paint looks really good! i enjoyed your video and subscribed. seeing you do this for only a hundred and nineteen bucks makes me feel like anything is possible
You're one of my new favorite channels. My son and I watch your videos. Congrats on your success!
Derek, your Dad is smiling down. Merry Christmas. Well done.
I agree. Between saving his dad's old Buick and doing this truck for his brother in his dad's honor really touched a guys feelings
hurry ok
all of us watch u kw every thing too ,,,, so u cd bk to painting real fast ok sir!!!!
As a Southern Gentleman, It's hard to convey the importance of hand gestures and regional vernacular when properly describing the complexities of automotive rehabilitation. Vice Grip Garage has captured the balance between knee-slapping humor and know-how .And the delicate balance of doing good work and giving your brother more than he paid for is much appreciated. Oh... and we must read the "Constructions"! Keep up the good work.
My exact thoughts
...and of course, he did show us how to tape the back "winder", you rock bro,lol
As a professional painter I found this very entertaining 😁 kind of a nice break from constantly having to care alot about every small detail
Shut up
Really enjoyed your videos your down-to-earth guy. I drive a 18-wheeler for a living you actually give me the hopes that I can paint my own truck and not have to spend $12,000 that some people want thanks for being real
Wrenching is all about the fun. The best advice is to walk away when things aren't going well. Generally the next day the problem will go away. Keep it fun and you can enjoy this type of work for years.
When I was young - 18 - I had a 66 Belair which needed new tie rod ends. I didn't have a pickle fork; didn't know they existed, so tried to use big screwdrivers to separate them. I got frustrated to the point of getting out from underneath the car and bashing the drinkers side front fender with my big ball peen to the point the car was highly unsightly while screaming a string of profanities at the top of my lungs at God.
Gee; I loved that old car and should have walked away.
"Rougher than a Dixie Chick's carreer" that had me howling!
I bet you weren't actually howling lmao
@@lordperezident I bet you weren't actually laughing your ass off, giasbm.
I laughed but they just released a new album last year that did great. Right wing snowflakes and their cancel culture. Bahahahahahahaaaaaaa
"My paint had more runs than Emmitt Smith" did it for me... Literally laughed out loud.
@@OnlyInRushville Changed their name to 'the chicks' so as not to 'offend' anyone with the word 'dixie'
He's got a great little helper. I really like your presentations.
This guy will never fail to remind me of my uncle
For anyone planning on doing a at-home paint job, I can't stress enough. Buy a p100 cartridge mask, use gloves and ventilate. Most people doing at home jobs are still using solvent based products, guys use to drop dead in body shops from them. Doing budget builds is awesome, but never skip out when it comes to your health.
Nah it's just a bump on the forehead. Just have a buddy pull you out to the air.
I hate gloves. I get paint on em and they get sticky
@@victorpopa8392 but you gotta love the sticky nostrils eh!!!
@@jvon3885 oh no I don't lol...I use a mask... I like it when it's the 63rd job I I do with the same cartige... feels like it's my last breath
@@victorpopa8392 push it as far as you can my man.....
"Front end rebuild spray and Brake rebuild spray" lmao Wishing Vice Grip Garage and anyone else that reads this Merry Christmas and safe New Year!
Merry Christmas!
AWESOME JOB. LOOKS GREAT. MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA! 🎄
I did this same thing for my brother about 6 years ago. Even painted it white. Did herculiner which was crappy, and put in new stereo. Thanks for bringing back the memories
Derek is a guy that , found his, calling. Been watching since day one, enjoyed so much watching this again on January 26 , 2023 sunday got to be honest , and beleive i can for us all (VGG ) Is one of the best watch, out there. Because ,Derek has a, talent you cant buy one of a kind was a hit day one and stays true to his founding , he is the real deal..bar none ...
Not just a budget paint job, but a good beginners guide 👍🏻
Kudos for your son, Bentley, for being a good trooper.
It’s 10pm and my dogs sick. Drove over an hour to find a 24hr dog emergency room. 2 to 5 hr wait. A guy wand his best bud are having a bad day but decided to whip out the hand held digicle computer and saw a new vcg, then he said “ alright a fella can wait”.
Just such great timing with these videos.
Hope your best bud is doing better... 🙏
Thanks the doctor just called me from inside and the old girl has a pretty bad eye infection and glaucoma but she should recover minus possibly losing eyesight in her right eye. All in all could be worse so I can’t complain.
@@danhoyland142 glad to hear, best of luck to the both of you!!
Just wanted to say that your a very considerate brother. Wish my brother was like you. I’m 65 and been disabled since I turned forty after a stroke then a year later. I’ve got an old 99 Chevy Silverado with the 2000 body style and yesterday coming back from the doctor my oil pressure dropped below 20 psi and I guess I’ll be without away to go now since my wife maxed out the credit cards and ruined our credit. I just found that she just did it not long ago when a cop was at my door handing me a lean against my home. Now I have four leans. I guess I’ll sit and just watch the house fall apart and my truck rust back to dirt. A man doesn’t have a chance with this woman. Thanks again for such a great job on the paint job and giving it to your brother. I like all of your videos.
Scheduled to jump a culvert was the quote of the video for me.
On another note, pretty cool that you put your Dad's ol business decal on the truck.. I bet your bro really appreciated that!
I would have loved to see Crang's silent and emotionless reaction to this gooder paint job
That's what I was thinking!
Looks real nice, I'm sure at 60 mph no one's going to know that it's a weekend paint job- again, great job
Besides Roadkill this is my go to show! Honest skilled and down to earth father husband and craftsman,Derek you are one of the best
Awesomest video ever!! The best scratch and shoot tip that I took away: "It won't take a lot of time because we're not gonna do a good job." Right after my own heart! 🙂
As a legally blind driver, I'm impressed with the paint job!
🤣😎
😂😁
That's funny 😂
That truck looks amazing I hope your brother really appreciated the work you done to it
Would have loved to have seen your brother's face when he saw the truck. Especially when he saw the Westside Tire and Auto stickers. Great job making your brother happy and your father proud.
