Kyle is a straight up honest guy with amazing talent. I own one of his trucks and wouldn't hesitate to do business with him again.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thank you Rob!

[@charleykeenan6171]

Ok. The price is AWESOME. I defy anyone to get a truck in this condition for this price. This would go for well over $10k U.S. where I am. Well done and I too would drive it as is!

[@Grey_Beard72]

That is a steal. If I had it, I'd be up there in a heartbeat. For that price around here. The rust would still be needing repaired. You'd be lucky if it even had an engine or ran.

[@LarryDeSilva64]

It will be a nice truck for somebody who wants a square body. They can even run and drive it while making it better putting a wood bed in it etc. You did a nice job getting that truck back together and pretty solid now so it won't break in half. Thanks for the videos.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thanks for watching the show!

[@syyenergy7]

If I was ever able to buy something like that , the only thing I would do is maintain the hell out of it and rust proof it at least once a year. It would literally last FOREVER. I'd use it every day !

[@jn1ty]

I missed the part where you fixed the back of the cab. That must have been fun.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

It wasn't fun! Haha

[@valuepack2]

Man, this project came out great, you won't have any trouble selling it, even the price is low. Cheers!

[@Mr49Studebaker]

I have no ability to buy the truck but i still went ahead and watched the whole video for you. Truck turned out nicely lots of work went into making it a nice easy truck to finish up.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thanks for watching the whole show, I appreciate it!

[@65bugnut]

I wish you luck in selling the truck. You did a lot of work to it, and the price is more than fair. If someone is looking for a winter project, this would be perfect.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thank you John!

[@stuartstephens]

Things may look better on screen than in person but I still think you're being modest about the condition...we all saw the amount and quality of work you put into the truck, and all the hard work is done. I hope there's a bidding war, I think it's worth a lot more than what you're asking. In any case good luck with the sale and I look forward to the next project.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thank you! Somehow I doubt there will be a bidding war!

[@russdavis1960]

WOW!!! With 'full disclosure' and video documentation on all of the rust repair and parts swapping.... I would say THAT'S a very fair price.

[@mrgrumps3062]

It would be a pleasure to buy a repaired truck from you as you have some mad skills. Hope it works out for you.

[@jamesferrell9404]

Think I remember you saying. Your views have been low on this build. But i for one. have really enjoyed this build. And hope your views come up on it

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@65cj55]

It's a good solid truck now, the fact people can watch what was done and how is a plus, you can't get any more genuine then that.

[@highland94]

I grew up with those trucks were an every day sight. Every farmer had one running and one in the back for parts. Damn, you did that truck justice, I would drive it as a daily pretty much as you have done it!

[@pappabob29]

Watching you expand those hood springs reminded me of a clever trick I learned while putting my newly powder coated springs back on my 57 Chevy hood. If I may offer a "tip" for those who might benefit. Take your spring and "bend" it until the coils begin to open on one side. Slip a thick (maybe a 12" flat) washer between the open coils. Do this two, , three, or four times. Rotate the spring and do the same process 180 degrees opposite the ones you just inserted. You will find that adding the washers between the coils extends the spring ends. Mine took about four places if memory serves before the end hooks would engage the hinge. Once you have it hooked on the hinge., you can operate the hood to stretch the spring and "presto", all the washers fall out. No Muss, no Fuss,, No wrench "teeth" marks on your finish. ;o)

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Yeah, I've used that idea for removing the springs as well, then leave the washers in and it makes reassembly easy (providing the springs aren't getting refinished) I'm low on washers though, and with the insane price of everything in Canada I just did this one the hard way!

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

It Is awesome to see another enthusiast helping keep these classics in use and out of the salvage yards!

[@grabthar1944]

Even though I wouldn't normally do such a thing, I hit the like button especially for that seat. It just adds a touch of comfort and class to the build that you can only get from modern components. But it could use some holes in the rear pillars for some speakers.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

I just got out my can opener and hatchet to fix the speaker situation!

[@toadskwirm8824]

I think it’s fantastic that someone will have the opportunity to own what may some day be a KZbin classic.

[@robert4005]

Get some buckets out of a later truck with console in between and the shoulder belt built into the seat back, now that’s a looker there!

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Hahaha that would look sharp!

[@bonniekelly2250]

Kyle, that bench seat would look sweet in my living room or on the front porch 👍. Good luck finding a buyer. Your asking price is well worth it.

[@ronszech4007]

I've got a 75 Malibu 2 door same color as yours. I've had it over 25 year's. I love the thing. Haven't driven it much last couple years. I'm building up my courage to start doing body work.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Oh you're killing me Kyle! I've been waiting for this video to come out for weeks! Couldn't wait to see how you fixed the "Speaker holes" in the cab! You didn't show it! It's like you stabbed me in me, Heart! I have a hole in my 66's stepside's cab in the same location! Other than that great video ect, ect. Love your work!

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Whoops! Sorry! I actually cheated and just cut the pieces I needed out of another cab and welded them in

I watched you struggle to get the hood and beautiful seat installed. I couldn't help but think "where are the cats?" Why couldn't they be out there earning their keep. I know, Great idea! You're welcome.

I think that hood installation came from the how to end up hospitalized with difficult and potentially embarrassing injuries bulletin. Don't forget the explosive gas tank behind that lovely seat. I would say that project was a success. I do like the unrestored look. I'm looking forward to whatever trouble you get into next. Cheers!

[@johnwesner3935]

Hey Kyle, my 64 F100 catches everybody's eye and it's mostly natural patina. Areas where I had to repair rust are primers with rust converter and then flat camouflage tan, which oddly matches the original color. No one has been able to tell I've spent a couple hundred hours to get it to where it doesn't look like it. It's like peeing yourself in a blue suit. You get a warm feeling but nobody notices!😊

Needs an original seat for sure. I owned a 1966 Chevy stepside that had the factory optioned "truckers" seat, a seat with a suspension of sorts. It was very comfortable. Also had the big 292 cubic inch and a powerglide. Rusty as well... I have a picture of it somewhere as I was installing a 350 in it .

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Cool! I'll have to keep an eye out for one of those seats

"Been told this is a bad idea" and yet... you're doing it.. I like your style... that's exactly what I would do. It's a great old truck, but I don't know... $38.50 American dollars seems a little high. Let me wait and see what the exchange rate is next month. On a serious note, other than the mechanicals (and that damn seat) I wouldn't change a thing. Whoever gets it.. will not be sorry. Cheers from the shed

Probably the most honest sales pitch I've ever seen or heard. IMHO its worth every dime you are asking. Maybe you could throw in a snow shovel for those who can't get there before November. I think the area between Saskatoon and Prince Albert is where winter was born. Damnation, does the wind blow and snow drift in that part of the world. Not a fit climate for man or beast. I don't think you will be waiting too long before someone is banging on your door with a fist full of cash. I'm looking forward to your next project. Is that a Hudson I used to see in the garage?
