I want one.

Great stuff Dalton. So happy this channel is growing I remember back at 2500 subs thinkin “man this guy deserves so much more”. Well you’re sure on your way now.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Getting there!

He’s becoming a big favorite of mine!

What a hidden gem of a channel this is 😂 This is the side of car culture that I love. Can’t wait to get a sh!t box I can fix up and customize on a dime. Speed doesn’t appeal much to me. Frugality, resourcefulness and self sufficiency does.

[@johnwaller4983]

Love watching you do these full frame off restoration projects,can’t get enough.. keep them coming

Entertaining - CHECK! Editing - CHECK! Knowledge Sharing - CHECK! Next Highly Watched Budget Build Channel - CHECK! It's so cool to see your videos getting better and better with each installment, Dalton. Your editing is spot on and it's hard to keep a straight face while watching between each moment- your humor, with editing pulls everything together- keep up what you're doing, brother! I'm going to be there when we're celebrating your 100K subscribers!

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Can't wait!

[@glennarmstrong7474]

love your attitude, Dalton. I look forward to all your episodes. Your channel is gaining momentum .

[@jackharrison4327]

Love your show. You are the new VGG. Love Derek to but I really like the grass roots fixing stuff. I pray you and JT enjoy much success and happiness and keep up the good work!

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Thank you!

[@frigglebiscuit7484]

gear lube smells so bad because of the high sulfur content. the sulfur acts as a lubricant and a cushion for the face of the gear.

[@Dross_Fabrication]

Hopefully a helpful tip: those shocks look identical to my Monroe Coil-Assistance Shock Absorber. They're roughly 80 a set and help the leaf springs in carrying some of the weight. I love mine cuz my leaf springs were long dead and the coil shocks actually lifted the rear by 2 inches.

[@e.s.bryant765]

Perfect time. Just laying down with the dog and nothing good on. Thanks for sharing.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Awesome! Thank you for watching

I finally found the answer to the rear view mirror!!!! J.B. weld . It hasn't fallen off yet. Before I used that it was falling off every few months.

[@adamrichardson2227]

Gear lube, specifically GL5 gear lube, has sulfur additives which smell terrible. For my manual transmission, I have to make sure that I do NOT use the same oil as the diff. It takes a GL4 gear oil, which does NOT have these additives. The additives in GL5 will eat "yellow metals" like bronze & brass etc. Some transmissions, like mine, have those metals in them. Almost every time I do a transmission fluid change I smell that nasty smell and know that they put the wrong fluid in.

Make sure when you glue that mounting tab to the windshield it's facing the right way I've seen people glue them on backwards .

[@PoleBarnGarage]

Yep

[@aussiefirestorm]

Yep it is mint now. Send it!

[@PaulPittman]

20+ year mechanic here, rubber undercoating is the worst because it traps moisture and will cause it to rust from the inside out. You should look into woolwax. I've used it for years and it does an amazing job. you can get it in black. It will keep moisture out and self heals.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

It's good nuff for this turd

[@PaulPittman]

@@PoleBarnGarage LOL. I suggest woolwax for the stepside. a gallon of black is about 30 bucks and will cover the underside with plenty left over for another 'turd. It can be brushed on as well as sprayed on.

[@bryan2garcia]

A nice wash and a mild buff would make that paint pop

Won't do much for the missing pieces lol

Well the best way to repair an old farm truck. Imagine you're summer fishing house is on a little river we call De'nile.

[@dave1135]

21:28 how I've had good luck getting seized brake line nuts free is to first clean the nut, tube, and exposed threads with a wire brush or wire wheel in a drill. Soak with deep creep or pb blaster then heat the nut with a small propane torch. Then spray with more pb blaster or deep creep. The heat will pull the penetrant into the threads. It should break loose with a good line wrench. If it won't come loose or the nut is rusted to nothing, just cut the line off at the T fitting and remove the nut with a socket and install a new section of nicop line. Nicop is a bit more expensive, but well worth it. It bends and shapes easily without kinking, and will never rust or corrode.
