This is a video that I know many of you have been waiting for. I know many of you were excited for dad to see the truck for the first time after I finished all the work. In this video, you get your wish.
This officially marks the end of the #ETCGDadsTruck build, but it’s not the end of the story. I’m sure many of you are curious as to what caused the excessive crankcase pressure in (Episode 30). I plan to cover that in a future video (Episode 32) after I figure out what went wrong. Just give me some time to put that together and I’ll post it when it’s ready. Or you can find out sooner by following me on social media. Links at the bottom of the description.
For those of you that stuck with the build, thanks! I hope you enjoyed the journey, and learned something from the experience. I showed my successes and my failures during this build. I figure if you see what I screwed up, you wouldn’t make the same mistakes. I don’t mind ‘looking bad’ if it helps someone else. The main reason I make these videos is to help you.
That said, dad and I had a great time on the Power Tour 2019. There will be another video covering some of that. I didn’t record the entire tour. I was pretty warn out from the build, and I just wanted to enjoy the time with my dad. I hope you’ll forgive me for that.
Until next time. Thanks for watching!

You never get too old to hear dad say, "good job son." From all of us out here who no longer have dad around... thanks for this video.

[@ericthecarguy]

Thank you!

[@MrEyad1990]

Yeah he still says that even tho his son is taller than him . Thats true parenthood .

[@stigonutube]

well written mate, i miss my dad too, passed away in 2011.

Ditto!

@@ericthecarguy , warm my heart to hear ,(good job son), my dad been gone since 1978.

[@Steven-kc7id]

Your dad is the type who doesn't show all his cards but you can tell he is grateful and proud of you!

[@69Phuket]

Agree.. I got a bad son..With a shakey channel...Try harder ;P

[@moparedtn]

I'm 58 and you've got me all teary-eyed here, Eric. You're a good son. You did good by your Dad. Kudos! My own dad has been gone quite a while now and he's the reason I'm a car guy, too. Miss you, Pop... -Ed on the Ridge

[@ericthecarguy]

Thank you! My condolences for your dad.

[@Hipsters_N_Hippies]

I’m 30 and I have one question. What’s it like to work on a car with your dad? It Kinda sounds cool.

[@moparedtn]

@@Hipsters_N_Hippies Well, speaking for myself, what happened as a kid (me being the "assistant" and learning by observing and asking too many questions) actually continued into adulthood out of respect for Pop. There was that moment when we both realized that his own knowledge of cars (borne out of necessity, as he'd grown up with next to nothing and having to learn the hard way how to keep junkers running anyways) evolved into my own learning because it wound up I just loved cars. He HAD to; I WANTED to and he always encouraged that. When that moment happened, however, things still remained as they were when I was younger - Pop still took the lead and I still played apprentice, even though I wound up with a lot more abilities on cars. In the end, I wound up being his own personal mechanic (just as Eric did here) even though cars have never been what I do for a living - and that made me immensely proud. I wish he was still here for me to do that for now. We always want the approval of our fathers, after all. Eric is very blessed to have that now and it's obvious in this video he acknowledges it and cherishes it. Good on him! :-)

[@envisionelectronics]

Wow...I’m speechless. I’m 43 and have never heard my dad say “Good Job, son” even though I tried to make him happy. Yeah I’m in tears.

[@bentnickel7487]

Aaron, I was 51, he was 71 and one year from passing, before I heard it one time. It's damn near impossible for some men, because they weren't raised that way and feel it is awkward to talk about it. Just be sure to tell your kids, it means so much to them.

[@bwest-yq3uc]

So sad you Dad did not speak those words... sure he thought of them at the time. Maybe not the type to speak words as such. This is a learning moment for Fathers to always remember to be positive and say encouraging words to your children, especially sons. Young male egos are very fragile. And children are never too old to say those words. I grew up in a state orphanage.... orphan at age six.... Saying this to remind you to enjoy your parents while you have them. Time takes them away much too soon.

[@EgoShredder]

Same here and when my dad saw my sister and my first cars, dad just said very little and later came back with a brand new car of his own, to rub our noses in it. No chance of him saying well done and proud of you etc. He kept doing this in later years with each car we got. However he did once buy me a really cool hot hatch car, when he heard I had got a job after being out of work for a while. I could see that he was in tears when I drove it away from the garage forecourt though... (he'd never admit to it I bet).

[@erikjohnson2889]

Judging by your comment on this video, I'm pretty sure you've done a lot of good jobs in your life, man. Made me cry, too.

Eric : do you like the truck ? Dad : MINE !!!

"Look Dad!" We never grow out of it, do we? Even when they're gone. Glad you got the chance, Eric.

Your dad is cool eric, now i know where you got your sense of humor.

I love how eric just wants to give his dad the truck.......

[@fabianatencio6634]

That's a real dad right there! Classic respectable man!

[@moofushu]

It actually brought a tear to my eye when I heard your father say "good job son." I never had that kind of father.

[@MotorScotti]

26:34 This is what it's all about in life. Well done, Eric! These kind of father-son moments are priceless

[@rickgaine3476]

I think this is my favorite video of yours to date. This is an absolutely wonderful moment. I believe you made your Dad proud. A momemt you can treasure for a lifetime.

[@karffiol]

I am pretty sure Eric shed a tear after the final cut. It must feel great your Dad appreciate your work.

[@bentnickel7487]

I'll bet he didn't because his Dad has told him that, many times before. If you have to wait a lifetime to hear it, then it's awkward and heart breaking.

[@ryan8488]

What human being could thumbs down this video? If that was you, why are you even watching these videos? This is what working on cars is about!

[@johnbaker3843]

Yes sir. Love the dad videos. Enjoy your time together! I lost my dad in 2006 when he was 51 years old. I miss these type things with him. Awesome job. More dad videos Eric ! Thanks !

[@Motor-City-Mike]

ERIC, you did dad a major solid on this one! He loves that truck - meaning everything you did with it - he's one proud father to have a son like you. Well done Eric! Incidentally, dad nailed it on the wheels. They were centerlines (the actual name of the company), and people put them on EVERYTHING! There were a few companies that made knockoffs, but Centerlines were the real deal. (yup - I'm way closer to dad's age)

[@chipmccoy5077]

Eric, your dad is impressed. He is happy to be back in the driver's seat.

[@bwest-yq3uc]

Eric, proud of you for what you did for your Dad. Father and sons should have a good relationship, especially when Dads are in the autumn of their years. You make other Fathers envious. Sure like the gauges on the dash. Your Dad will always drive it with great love and memories of a caring son. Honor your Father and Mother the good book says. Proud you are doing just that.

[@juanc5149]

About him not wanting to get on it. I once gave my then 70 year old dad a ride in my 500 hp 240sx. He told me, that after a certain age the heart can’t take the adrenaline as much as it used too. So even if he finds the ride fun and thrilling he can’t push it as much as he’d like.

[@BigJnWorldWide]

Who's cutting onions? 😢😢😢😢😢 You did a great job, Eric! I'm glad your dad liked the truck.

[@twiz8789]

I managed to get something in my eye coincidentally right towards the end of the video

[@bretearwood7027]

I'm not crying... your dads truck just spit some oil in my eyes!

I'm really touched especially the hugging, should I wish I also have a Son like you........keep it up on the very good work.......and a very good Son.....

Awesome job Eric, an amazing gift to your Dad. My Dad passed away in 05, we were a father/son car enthusiast duo, we built a car and a truck together. This video brought tears to my eyes, I miss him so much.

[@lone_wolf_lifestyle]

Man there's nothing better than working on a car / or truck with your dad like this if you agree 👇🏼

[@Hipsters_N_Hippies]

SummitLifeTV honestly I wouldn’t know and I know I’m not alone....he taught me how to change oil when I was 10. That was it. Other than that I haven’t seen him since I turned 18. (I’m 30 now) and then I learned how to wrench with my buddy’s on our own cars. Sadly my story is more common than yours now. So if broken up households are more common, than wouldn’t they be the new “normal”? Someone please tell me why it is that normal is the minority. When the definition of normal is defined as the majority.... think about it. People get taller and fatter all the time. Ever looks at how tall we where 100 years ago? You can hardly fit in a model T Ford now. And t stood for tall. So if averages change why don’t the normals of our world.

[@fritzhusselmann2023]

You could tell it meant a lot to hear your dad say “good job, son.” Thanks for taking us along on the journey - and the biggest of ups for being willing to let your dad have the truck back.

[@regane.bartko7247]

From somebody who doesn't have a high opinion of his father, and consequently doesn't have a relationship with his father, it warms my heart to see a father and son who respect and love each other the way you and your father do. #gratitude

Eric (& Dad) I can't thank you enough for this series of videos. I have a '92 C2500 that i'm in the process of putting a crate motor in. With 298K the engine finally gave up the ghost. I chose to go the Carb route, but even so , your sharing the experiences was invaluable. I'm not going the pretty route either, but I'm doing what I can. Also, thank you for being brave enough to share your personal challenges with us. If you fall and brake a bone sympathy come from all directions, but "problems" from the neck up are seen by many as a weakness. Physical or psychological medical problems need treatment. Seeking help should never be an issue. Hope all is well, take care and God bless you for all you do.

[@gregtheegg3576]

My Dad had a 1955 Buick, and I always looked for one to fix up for him while he was alive. I didn't work fast enough, he had a stroke and the opportunity was missed. This series hits close to home. Thank you for sharing, because a bunch of us are vicariously living a dream through your eyes. Side note, I love the father/son relationship you two have. Rock on dudes.

I'm very sorry to hear about your dad. Thanks for the comment.

It’s great to have a dad that you can still gain favor from. Great son and great dad. Both intelligent and thankful. You guys are so blessed to have a good relationship. This video made my day. A lot of work went into this truck.

[@maxjax9991]

My first car was a project truck. 1982 Silverado. Was my dads truck when he was in college. It was passed to my uncle and he drove it as a hunting truck. He accidentally sank it in a swamp in FL, towed it back to my dads house and it sat for 9 years. My dad and me didn't have a good relationship. We hated each other some times. When I turned 15, I wanted a truck, and I wanted that old rusty chevy. We both ended up working on it together, he taught me everything. How to pull the engine, and rebuild it. How to weld, how to rebuild a carb and tune it by ear. He's a walking chiltons manual. That truck ended up saving our relationship. He's my best friend and we talk all the time. I can't get enough stories from him. 10 years later I still have that truck, and it still runs and drives. He asked me, "You have other cars, why don't you sell the truck?". I told him I can't. I could never sell it. He asked "why?" I told him, because when the time comes that you pass, I'll still have that truck. And when I drive it, it's like your sitting right next to me. I never seen him tear up till that day. Thanks eric, this brought back good memories.

[@brianx1808]

Eric, I'm really glad to see that you're Dad gave you a "Good job " and an "I love you" .

I'm tearing down a vortec 350 that I just bought and I'm sending it to the machine shop next week for it. I'm going to a carb with my build and a mild summit racing camshaft.
