Fabricating a Truck Bed 🐔 Radical Kustom 1953 Chevy Chicken Truck

[@TommyBradham]

Friday nights with Kyle. Best way to start the weekend 🎉

[@RBR307]

The "Destroying a Classic Car Because of Rude Comments" episode is in my opinion an award winning episode...that is so well done, Concept, Editing, Destruction, Reconstruction, and Execution all top notch and a fabulous video. One of the best I've ever seen. Kyle is an absolute throwback master craftsman who hasn't even begun to peak in his skills. Just imagine what he could do with a bigger budget. LIMITLESS TALENT! KEEP KICKING ASS KYLE!

[@normanroberts6680]

Your spot on in your assessment. This guy is as quirky as he is talented.

[@allanrichards3752]

I am always wary of people baiting the internet because for some people all this is frighteningly real and important. Some idiot(s) could want to do him real harm. To me the fact that a car that is beyond economic repair is going to be used to create a unique custom build - what is a better end for this car?

[@andy1056]

This is EXACTLY how I would have done this work, if I had the tools….and the energy…and the skill

[@glennnickerson8325]

"Build Yur Own Dang Chicken Truck!" Well put Mr. Carter...

[@phatdaddy1955]

Perfect!!

[@RaysLaughsAndLyrics]

The local Drive In Theater is no more .. but we have Kyle on the small screen to add valued entertainment to a Friday night. 👍

[@briquetaverne]

Kyle, creates works of art out of metal and is seriously talented.

[@jamesgladden6506]

U make me lol😅. Thankyou😮

[@lanceuppercut2483]

The Canadian Highway Commission called. They want their dirt road back.

[@genehunsinger3981]

this ISNT a money make'n operation,,,,,its a labor of love.

[@charleykeenan6171]

Wow! This is turning into one of the best builds I've ever seen (on or off KZbin)! Great use of a couple vehicles that were destined to be parted out and scrapped.

[@johnwinden8511]

To me, your abilities to straighten out and repair body parts is nothing short of amazing! I doff my cap to you, sir.

[@chrishouse5753]

But does he ever get sick of working on the floor? Another ten years and those knees are going to need some serious titanium. At least he can TIG.

[@johnwinden8511]

@@chrishouse5753 That’s so true, I’m an old geezer and my body is shot from too much manual labor.

[@dinodaniel2237]

Love the baroque music that fits in with video in period costume. Looking forward to your next video. All the best!

[@kenstevens5675]

I’m liking the direction that your custom is taking. People that don’t like you cutting up a “classic” can piss off.

[@That70sChannel]

7:30 Odd. . Coincidence? In the last episode of #vgg Derek was humming Camptown Races!

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thanks Philip. I haven't had a chance to watch any of his videos lately, but I suppose great minds think alike haha

[@rustyrodgarage2686]

This project just keeps getting better.

[@allanrichards3752]

This is turning into an amazing build. I like your method of finishing as much of the bodywork as you can whilst building. I have seen other people quickly welding everything together and then ending up with something that looks like Frankenstein's bride that needs weeks if not months of bodywork to get to paint.

[@joewolf4483]

Great video Kyle ... you make it look easy ... I would of loved to see you cut up a two door ... just to hear the squeal ...

[@glennnickerson8325]

Matching pants to go with the jacket! The "Look" is complete...😎

[@southsideronnie]

Ya, hardcore body man!

[@stantilton2191]

I appreciate all the work and customizing you are into. Also, I'm learning a lot about sheet metal and how to move it, as well as finish. There will be traditional haters where and whatever you do. Most sit on the couch! Thanks Kyle.

[@dustcommander100]

I gotta say, that's some impressive dissection! And then reconstruction! I liked the music, too. The work reminded me of a Pink Floyd song where the singer said "You raise the blade, you make the change, you rearrange me till I'm sane".

[@paulhedman7387]

Zoweee, this was a Doozie of a video to launch the weekend. All of the raw emotion you throw into the chicken truck I am reminded of the brooding James Dean. The spear scene was simply epic. It's a good thing you wound it all up with some soothing cat content or I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight. Thanks.

[@marktompkins8519]

These are the only videos I watch that are more than 10 min long. Good job.

[@jamiejames5311]

Please talk us through the next wing in more detail, love all your videos and hard work keep them coming

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

"Mate a pick up and a sedan, can't be done!" Kyle: What's a matter, Chicken...truck?

[@rumrunner1756]

I just love all the dirt and crap that falls out when separating inner and outer body panels. I once found a severely weathered grocery list clipped to a smashed pen in between two panels from a 56 Buick. Awesome day.

[@Afrodizyak47]

Kyle, every time I watch you at work, I admire and respect your affinity with metal bumping and doing it old school right. I slowed down the rear mudguard (fender) repair as you worked it out, so I could try and work out how you remover the dent path. Take care and there id no way that cutting up the sedan was anything other than recreation in another location! Loved the chop top, however.

[@lawrencehalpin6611]

THank you for taking us along on the build. Kind regards.

[@billyporter2195]

Great progress Kyle and your explanation of work was much appreciated and shows off your skills, look forward to next episode

[@plainnpretty]

I like your approach to the work and I think your work itself is first class. Thanks Kyle

[@lawncuttingplusdelta]

Its cool watching you work at 100 miles per hour ….. i like seeing the process unfold

[@IrenESorius]

I simply love to watch your ideas take form,, 👍‍‍🥰👍‍‍ As always Kyle,, Thank you ever so much for sharing it with us all,, ❣🙏❣

[@nicolasstanley1392]

Thanks! You da man

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thanks Nicolas!

[@died4us590]

Nice reconstruction Kyle, the chicken truck will live on, the surgery is going well on this 70 year old marriage. The one thing about working on a 50's vehicle or two, is all the sand and dirt that fall's all over you when working underneath it doing any hammering, grinding or wrenching. I just had the wonderful experience earlier today taking the old master cylinder out the bottom of my 54 m38a1 jeep. Whoever thought it was a good idea to put the damn thing under the vehicle between the exhaust pipe and the frame rail. I removed the skid plate from under the transmission so i can put a new mount in, and the dirt in my eye's was to much, and i had safety goggles on, but that crap gets in anyway. The 70 year old nuts and bolts are a pain, but the rusty cotter pins really don't like to come out without breaking, and make it that much more fun. When i saw all the dirt pouring out when you were separating the quarter panel from the wheel well, i was glad you weren't laying under it. Thanks for the fixing, and the entertainment, needed this lol. G-d bless.

[@kentupper8146]

Thanks!

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thank you Ken!!!

[@briquetaverne]

6)- I recall when Bondo first came out, my brother and I made Bondo buggies out of everything that had a dent in it.

[@tombrenes2411]

My 2 Cents Awesome El Co build Great content On the quart panel / bedside cut the spear add about 2 1/2 band To match the bulge of the front fender Fabulous project series

[@richardballard3748]

I think its amazing. I seriously like the whole look man. Don't ever worry about what others think. 😊 You be you, and as long as you are always respectful to yourself and others the rest will follow. I like how you envision things. Looking forward to seeing it come to life.

[@robertshemory3541]

Chicken truck is looking good. Looking forward to seeing the finished truck. Cheers 😎✌️❤️👍

[@russdavis1960]

Getting closer..... Still a ways to go... but it's coming along. Nice work Kyle!!!

[@lukesnyder9816]

I still can't believe how great your welding, patch panel and dent repairs come out. You have so much talent! I could watch your dent repair and metal finishing all day. Well, it's not metal finished but it's metal and you are finished with it.

[@davidcoudriet8439]

I hope you do another chop like on the Chevoniac. That looked really cool!

[@Nicks66Service]

As someone in SW TX, suffering from the endless not-even-summer-yet heat and humidity, watching someone working in full clothing and a jacket reminds me not all places on Earth are a living Hell. Thanks!

[@peteschutza3566]

Same here in Central Texas, gonna be a long hot summer, eh? All my wife's spring flowers are melted.

[@Nicks66Service]

@@peteschutza3566 Yeah...we are in never-leave-tools-in-the-sun season. Sucks.

[@clark9992]

I guess you could call that a jacket. In the same way you could call a gnawed drumstick, a couple of peas, and a ketchup stained french fry a hot meal.

[@daxtonbrown]

I'm in Vegas. Trying to restore my 67 Caqnaro and 49 3600 Truck. It ain't happening.

[@russellmurphree3181]

I love it! "Build your own damn chicken truck!"😂

[@1fknhpycmpr355]

Good work with the quarterpanel! I think back in the days guys who built custom cars, would not pay attention for the dents like those, just whack those dents up and let the lead do the finishing job. So, some ppl have whined why did you cut up the rotten 4 door classic car, the next step will be that the HC custom car guys start to whine that your work is too good for the period correct custom car :D

[@Jimmy-ex2ep]

Your imagination and skills are excellent. Keep it going ✌. SCTV references are a bonus too.

[@timwalden8026]

I’m am continually AMAZED by your metal working skill! That’s why I watch!!!!

[@georgeclements2742]

Without question, the best demunging channel on the whole Internet. Best wishes.

[@carltonpaul6223]

Son you amaze me with your patience and finesse in working sheet metal. Keep up the mind blowing work. Lee

[@BCole-bj4lv]

You rock! I can see your vision more and more. This is fun for me. With your influence, I was welding away this week on my car. I get an idea and now I just go for it. Seeing you do it just drives me. I love it.

[@paulwier7005]

GOOD GREIEF CHARLIE BROWN! Now that you removed the gas door. I guess you will have to throw it away once the tank is empty.

[@billywird]

I got your idea right off on that quarter panel and the route you took is the best way to go. Also by removing that panel you were able to work that dent out of the taillight area a lot easier and gave yourself a workable panel that will require very little finishing work. And of course the right side panel as you have shown is really going to show the advantage of removing that piece and making your own replacement panel.🥸👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Ben-rj7xs]

That is going to look Awesome!!!! I love the long sleek look that gives the body.. Awesome...

[@briquetaverne]

3)- I think Kyle deserves good ratings and the way to send his channel to more viewersis to leave more comments

[@k.g.kennedy9471]

Kyle that join is really well done Man . Nailed it !

[@phatdaddy1955]

Another stellar, STELLAR, waste of time....loved it!!!! The Transportier de la Pollo is taking shape. The vision is becoming more clear. My brain is fried. The next episode...when will it arrive...i cant wait!!!! Oh. Its here...ok. nevermind. Heehee! Lovin it Kyle!❤

[@rocketman-pt8zp]

I might not agree with project plans, but each person has their own idea of what they want. I am just tickled pink to see a young guy that still has knowledge and skills to do panel work/repair.👍

[@briquetaverne]

4)- Kyle is one hard working and clever customizer!

[@briquetaverne]

8)- I personally was a Buick guy and at 18 years of age had 4 styles of 1953 Buicks at the same time sitting in my back yard.

[@samadamms3432]

Nothing quite like the sight of a time lapse dirt cascade.

[@southsideronnie]

Probably tiny dust particles from thousands of trips on gravel roads. Cool though!

[@volktales7005]

I like what I see. Crappy old 4 doors were meant to be parted out!

[@mikemuench7640]

your metal work is unbelievable you are amazing love watching your work keep it up.

[@southsideronnie]

He is talented for sure!!

[@heatherkohlwey8379]

Another missed opportunity to end up somehow sitting in the liquid. At least you should have plenty of kitty litter as a floor dry. I'm more into saving sanity (what very scant amount I have left) than saving time. Always a treat watching you work. Cheers!

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Definitely a missed opportunity, but the rest of the fleet is due for oil changes so I'm fairly confident I won't be able to make it through that without creating a massive oil spill! Haha

[@richcaseaxon]

I love how that bed is coming together, I can't wait to see it progress!

[@iambicpentameter7177]

Wow! Just wow! Gonna look good, your tail light/tail gate design is going to be a prominent feature.

[@mattv4690]

SCTV, don't see that every day. Phenominal work as always.

[@kieranshaw1601]

Looks absolutely tough! Kyle keep it up this is the best thing going on the internet right now!

[@Telephony954]

The best years of the old car were spent on the factory floor , long long ago. in it current use as a pathway to our dreams and fine entertainment, the fun will never end. I liked the mock up and can't wait to see the magic happen to the other side. A true no kitten episode, rare. Thanks for sharing. Be well.

Glad to see that you love hard work and I Love watching your hard work. You are a true body man and not just a parts changer. A+++++ every time Kyle

[@brianandlindafairchild1237]

I like the fender skirt look. I've always liked the look of the 68 Buick GS.

[@colinmaxwell5481]

And your vision, forethought and planning. Great stuff…👍👍

[@briquetaverne]

7)- I recall trying to find parts from cars that were similar to one another like Pontiacs and Chevys in order to see what we could scavenge to fit.

[@kalnieminen65]

Starting to see your vision much better now. Everytime I watch your videos, I'm becoming more convinced that you actually know what you're doing. Must be that clean Saskatchewan mountain air that spawns your creative juices.

[@terje6810]

Hi Kyle... as allways, amazing metal work! Love the work you do.

[@pkd4697]

Great work as always! I think the truck is already the embodiment of cool rad custom! When you placed that newly created panel to the side of the truck, It just came alive. . need I say better then the plastic model. The lines already mesh with the truck in its current shape!! Carry on good sir!!

[@bobfur3290]

Love your work. Wow you get a real spring up when you're excited.

[@johnwoodrich8179]

Cool shape. Interesting to see the old body lines extended like that. Great show man.

My saving grace is Garrett's scrap yard in paducah ky. I can go in and dig through piles of metal and buy flat plate, angle Iron, square tubing, and round tubing or Anything I need for cents per pound instead of paying out the wazoo for a full stick from a metal supplier.
