1947 diamond t pickup build part 2

[@deborahwebb3598]

My husband is a retired automotive engineer and he said he would move the lights from center another 2 or 3 inches. He stated you’re doing a great job and we’re so happy to see a young man working with his hands and doing quality work. Wanting to see the AAR Cuda as he builds old MOPARS!!

[@evan9306]

This truck will be just like a small version of the truck in the movie duel

[@1776_Garage]

​@@evan9306Cool. I like that movie and that truck is wicked looking!

[@mikkei3532]

your husband is wrong ....

When I was a carpenter, I refused to work for enginurds. You could never make them happy.

[@richardthomas1743]

Definitely keep the big headlights They belong on that truck! That truck looks awesome! 👍

[@maynardcat]

I agree

[@42lookc]

The massive size of those fenders and running boards and front bumper needs massive headlights to go with them. Great choice! Loving how it's coming along. That yeller bar is the most useful tool with no moving parts I have ever seen!

[@michaelhilderbrand3022]

Diamond T with a Cummins is a perfect match. That sound of the Cummins and the great look of this truck will be wicked in a great way . I have nothing but great respect for you .

[@ThomasThomas-wn3km]

I love the headlights and the overall look of the truck. I'm a truck guy. I would rather drive a truck than anything else. It's beautiful!

[@keithjohnson7453]

Keep doing what ur doing Very skilled man 44 years in body work Very satisfying work

[@danpaul9423]

Holy shit two Jennings videos In a week. Must be my birthday

[@MARRANCA2]

This kid is the best. Hopefully, KZbin pays him WELL and OFTEN for his work.

[@brandonpeterman9964]

Well i'll be 2 videos in less than a week, hell yeah!!!

[@jenningsmotorsports7554]

Yeah trying to get back on schedule with at least 1 video a week hopefully two

[@brandonpeterman9964]

@jenningsmotorsports7554 fantastic bud from one wrencher to another keep it up. I recently saw there was a article written up about your channel so you're on the right track.

[@philnfla]

I said the same thing, love the straight forward approach to everything. Gone are the days where vehicles can be fixed.

[@w.rustylane5650]

I'm a model railroader and I built an old Diamond T flatbed truck for my railroad. Love your videos. Cheers from eastern TN

[@johnNJ4024]

Do you ever run at the Mid-South Live Steam track? I was down there about 2004 with a few friends. It's a nice track. They used to pressure test boilers and certify them, but I don't know if they still do.

[@jimp4037]

You are one smart cookie and definitely in your element! Thank you for bringing us along for the ride.

[@kennethmurray6485]

Those headlights are awesome! The look of the front of that truck is amazing! This build is amazing.

[@lawrencemathews6182]

Keep the diamond T going forward. Love the large headlamps.

[@rayj1943]

I have followed the Diamond T and waited patiently for part 2. Move the headlights around until YOU are satisfied. I really like your will it run videos because you do not follow the square body crowd and bring back what some would say are lost causes. I am 80 and working on a 1953 Dodge 2 ton partly due to you. Live in Arkansas and got it in Arkansas. Keep up the good work.

[@haroldholland1316]

I’m good leaving them where they are. However, moving them out a couple of inches might give the truck a more balanced look. Amazing job! Great show!

[@williamswindle5445]

Those Diamond T trucks are great looking trucks.

[@Dutch427Chevelle]

Good to see those old beauty's and the Cudas😮‍💨

[@BugsMoranDecendent]

This truck just embodies the feeling of get out of my way I got work to do vibe. The massive headlights fit great where they are at and that bumper looks like you could hit a cow and not dent it. Really love how this build is coming along and can't wait till we can all see it going down the road.

[@mauxie.]

absolute gem of a channel, I pity anyone who hasn't found your videos yet

[@zinckensteel]

Wow, that grill, the split windscreen, those fenders.. ..incredibly nostalgic for me; in the late 70's my small-dairy uncle was actively using a old Diamond T on his farm. A decade later it was one of the most interesting old heaps around the place, well-loved but totally run into the ground. I also recall riding in what I think was an early Diamond-Rio, asking about the swinging warning alert arm at the top of the windshield that had something about "air brakes" written on it.. ..and being told not to worry about it! We were moving slowly on fairly level terrain iirc, so hopefully there really wasn't anything wrong with relying on the standard brakes.

[@egarr791]

This is like the Jeepers Creepers truck!!

[@fredrichardson9761]

Really enjoy watching your videos! Can't wait to see were this series goes - I personally think the lights look great and I'm imagining the whole will be one awesome monster of a truck!

[@AlisyaBurke]

Your channel's commitment and sincerity are truly special. Congratulations

[@CoolGames012]

I love the big headlights, they’re the perfect distance from the grill too

[@FrauUnibrow]

I love this build, it was great to see an update! Since you asked for our opinion, I vote for moving the headlights outwards 2-3 inches.

[@parkerfiskar3589]

I like how you did this one, less time with the camera in hand and more time of you in frame doing and explaining things. Keep it up!

[@paulcvdh]

After a hard day, it fun to see you putting these old trucks back together. I think I can hear the crickets in the background imagining you’re working on this in the evening. Great work! Greetings from Marietta Ga!

[@donnengler7532]

Big lights - big truck. Proportions look right. I love your projects and your timeline mimics my own :D Keep up the good work.

[@jamesparks3504]

Man, I've been looking forward to this video for a little while now and have to say it was worth the wait! The headlights look great where they are, they look like they should have always been there.

[@jamesgallman5677]

...jumbo headlights for a jumbo truck! 👍👍

[@haroldchase4120]

She’s is looking great brother . Look forward to seeing her driving

[@alexnewman2399]

Seeing the notification just put a smile on my face

[@ReapingGrim93]

Been waiting 11months for the “next Monday” as mentioned in last video of this build 😂🤣

[@michaelguinn5736]

Morning Mr. Jennings, what some people don't seem to understand is the time & fixturing it takes to do this type of build....great job!!

[@CS-oe8og]

The truck looks incredible!! The Cadillac lights are so AWESOME!!! I’m totally fired up for the Diamond truck build!! It’s also really good to see more videos, thank you!!!

[@rickyking3333]

I think the big lights look good I do think they need to move a inch or so maybe to center of the fenders outside that stay on the path your on looking great can’t wait to see the ol girl rolling down the road

[@jonaugust9336]

Leave the headlights out. I think it looks good like that. That's definitely a dream truck for me

[@Hawaiiborn1539]

Keep the projects going!!!!

[@deankdx]

big headlights are awesome! i'd leave them where they are, seems to work well as is. you could do a walk around video on the Cuda with just where it's at and what you are waiting on.

[@jdretiree2433]

It's been so long since you posted a video on this project I forgot all about it. Glad to see you working on it again.

[@MojaveRider223]

Awesome build!! Need more of this and the AAR Cuda!

[@bobbynash282]

I was just wondering about that truck just this morning. You do great work. Alabama is a big fan.

[@stevechilders2624]

That truck is gonna be the coolest thing on the road!

[@montewestlund8880]

Wish I would of done something like that when I was younger .great job I love it

[@apimpnamedslickback2748]

I personally think the headlights look pretty good where they're at, you should devote most of your time to this truck as I've found it most interesting. I love the "will it run" series though so it's a pretty big toss up.

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Man that truck is going to look badass! Looking forward to seeing more!👌😎👍

[@kenlawhon-vf7bt]

Cannot wait till it’s driving down the road. Keep the videos coming! Im constantly waiting 😁

[@brendagaunce8757]

Diamond in the rough LOVE IT and keep the huge headlights.

[@Robert-ni6ut]

Man that old truck is going to be so cool. It takes a lot of talent to do a project like this keep up the great work 👏

[@jesterr7133]

I am normally not a fan of lifted trucks at all. In fact, I can't stand them. That being said, this truck is gonna be friggin cool. I love your vision on this. If I was gonna do it, I would do it the exact same way. You need to bring this thing to some shows or something once you finish it. I would love to see it in person. I love it.

[@goodguy4342]

I saw the Cuda sitting over there!

[@steveloeffler1152]

That car went from firewall to almost completed in 30 days and now it's going to take a year for the last 2 hours it'll take to finish

[@ronaldmiller2740]

GREAT ANOTHER VIDEO,, MY SON MAX 8 LOVES YOUR VIDEOS AND LEARN ,, YA!! ME TOO.. GLAD YOUR WORKING INSIDE WARM,,.. WE ARE TRYING TO SEE WHAT YOUR BUILDING,, OK!! ITS COMING TOGETHER A MONSTER TRUCK.. WELDING PROTECT YOUR EYES.. GREAT VIDEO,...!!

Mr Jennings Yahoo Entertainment has a Story on U Finding Old Cars CONGRATULATIONS!!!

[@MARRANCA2]

I wish that more of the KZbin automotive channels had the passion and sincerity that Dustin Jennings has for his work and skill

[@wes11bravo]

This is about the coolest build I can imagine. What a way to update this beautiful old Diamond T.

[@jimbo5728]

Love this build!!! The big lights look great where they are too.

[@jackhill436]

You should build a heavy duty box for the jack and one for each jack stand that would be a lot safer than the pipe i love that truck it’s going to be so cool can’t wait to see it finished

[@RoninDosho]

Headlights are good where they are. Nice to see a shop video, as well as more frequent videos!

[@bulldawgg279]

That thing is a beast! I love it. Big is very fitting for it.

[@maverick3642]

I think that truck is spot on. Great work Mr. Jennings. Keep up the good work.

[@linehaullife7807]

I like the head lights closer to the grille. Gives it more of that Capone gangster look ya’know.

[@maynardcat]

Am I ever glad I found your channel. I like the size of the headlights and where they're mounted, this is going to be one tough looking truck like no other. It's great seeing a young guy so creative and mechanically talented doing successful hands on projects most wouldn't know where to begin. I'll be watching for update videos on this truck.

[@petervanderlind6746]

thanks for bringing back some of the other stuff back.. i like the lights in the center

[@davida.p.9911]

"Zoosk it"...."Plasma zoosk it".....That's how we do it here in Arkansas. 😁 She looks good, the headlights look great! The whole truck is gonna be awesome!

[@Twenty9point97]

I’m not much of a truck guy but I love watching you put this together. I wish you could keep the rust on it. Has an awesome Mad Max look to it.

[@damianjackson9084]

This truck is gonna be awesome it has a mad max feel about it

[@larrysmith4887]

This is my favorite channel...

[@Barbarra63297]

I like the headlights in closer to the grill.

[@BRTowe]

Man, I'm glad to see part 2 of the Diamond T. That thing is gonna be so cool.

[@paulbales3513]

Headlights look good maybe two inches wider. Sheet metal work is great!

[@chemicaljonez]

This is gonna be one awesome looking truck!! Wish i had your fabricating skills buddy!!

[@manicoptio9305]

I watch the channel from the UK and I love the channel. Don't know if this is what you'd call 'Red Neck Truck Building 101' or if that is an insult but I think it is great to watch. More please.

[@user-em8ky1cl7n]

I agree with the retired auto engineer and think that the headlights need to move 2-3 inches out from center. I owned a metal fab shop back in the day and you would have fit right in and been a cherished lead guy. You git er done and have mad skills fueled by confidence. Rock on.

[@MrJeepmarine]

Looks really cool, I love seeing things being fabricobbled together.

[@greggsvintageworkshop8974]

What a cool old truck! It's coming together nicely. I believe the headlight distance looks good, but the passenger side looks lower than the driver side. What an awesome resto-mod!

[@z978ady]

Really nice project and well done. The '31 Caddy headlights almost look like the P100's found on pimp mobiles that roll through Harlem. If you are driving to Hooters maybe that is the perfect look. '38 Caddy headlights are a little more bulbous and post Flash Gordon so they may be more similar to the originals. Someone claimed the dash gauges were typically leftovers somehow bought directly from the Packard factory. Four wheel drive is a must have. Cruise control and super soundproofing a good idea, along with high back seats.

[@billyporter2195]

Great video, hope you carry on with project, and a great change from ‘will it start’ videos, as interesting as they are 👍

[@jesterr7133]

Lol. This is gonna look so bad ass when you are done. This was very creative.

[@ponga782]

Don't sweat the small stuff.. I've a few old trucks and engine/trans packages.. I like how tall it is and really dig the bigassheadlights.. keep on truckin!

[@williammccormack6295]

Awesome looking piece of kit Bill Hervey Bay Queensland Australia 🇦🇺

[@fester73666]

Awesome part 2 on the diamond T, making some good progress with the sheet metal and those nice BIG head lights 👍👍

[@joshkoltes]

Your front coils need a rubber cushion between the top of the coil and the bucket. It'll bang creek and squeek without it. It adds lift too. That's where they add for leveling kits

[@danmassie1942]

Love the headlights, truck is awesome.

[@harrisongrant8558]

I know it's not finished yet, but this is going to be an awesome-looking truck when it's all finished. Keep the Cadillac headlights too, they look great on those wide fenders.

[@williamdalbey4867]

Your truck is going to be intimidating on the road for sure. I truly enjoy watching all of your builds

[@williamdalbey4867]

Intimidating in a very cool way!

[@no2thenwo737]

Yay, is all it gotta say. Helps with the algorithm and all that.

[@dannybradley9346]

Thank you for showing this; it is an excellent truck so far.

[@mixerman1]

I had to rewatch the first one. hope to see more sooner lol

[@samuellashbrook6353]

Awesome. Great work all around. Keep it up!!!
