Plans for our next jeep build come together

[@MacsSpecialitiesMotorsports]

The Jeep Rod 😍The Loadstar is awesome!

[@edwinreece438]

Glad to see it's going to have a hemi.

[@jeffs4690]

Old International is pretty cool, dig those cab lights styling. Jeep looks like it will come together quickly and be bad azz! Nicest part has to be gteat all the room in that new shop, different seeing so much open space for you to move around when working.

[@HardCoreFab]

Yes all the extra space is nice for sure!

[@normabrawner4881]

Jeep looking good . Love that cab you got .

[@sherrylockhart305]

The wheels and tires look great on the Jeep

[@HardCoreFab]

Thanks!

[@roycenelson6370]

If only you would know where you could find a bus chassis with motor is where you can put the cab in front clip on

[@HardCoreFab]

Right! LOL

[@penguinbrand]

i see rocks, Anthony sees diamonds. You are an artist sir

[@HardCoreFab]

Lol thank you!

[@AlanPitt-y3n]

That’s going to be something else👍🏼

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

😎😁👍 flat out Engineering in California make a great kit for c4 corvette suspension front and rear ! Have a few !!

[@GearlessChris]

Awesome. Loved the last Jeep rod you fixed.

[@gregboettcher5523]

Great jeep! Love the loadstar!

[@HardCoreFab]

Thanks!

[@MacsSpecialitiesMotorsports]

100 percent!

[@RusThompson]

Nice cab!! Love the jeep already!

[@lolife999]

That loadstar chassis would make a good base for a frame table. Jeep is going to be cool!

[@HardCoreFab]

Yeah I was going to scrap it but now you got me thinking that would be a bad idea!

[@mikebartosch9892]

The jeep looks crazy. That new International would make a killer car hauler. Like old school Snake and Mongoose hauler but slammed.

[@HardCoreFab]

I like the way you think!

[@shanewright6958]

Another great video 👍👍

[@kevinflynn9204]

Hows Julie??? cant wait for this build.......

[@ThatRustLife]

I'm doing well, thanks for asking! 😊

[@lemenfab6370]

Can't wait to see that thing running around Hutch.

[@HardCoreFab]

That one is going to live in Nebraska

[@polatroyed8677]

Inter trucks a score 👌

[@MillCreekFabShop]

That jeep will be mean. That old load star brings back memories. Our neighbor in Kentucky had a blue one with white stripes. He had a big dump bed and used it to haul coal to provide for his family. Sweet project. How is Julie? Praying for her.

[@ThatRustLife]

I appreciate the prayers! I'm taking it a day at a time. I miss working around the shop!

[@MillCreekFabShop]

@@ThatRustLife Bless your heart. I certainly understand. Cancer is from Satan. Stand strong and trust the Lord.

[@impalaman4546]

Great video thanks

[@HardCoreFab]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@thercbarn5001]

Love the jeep! I don't know why you would get rid of the frame on the loadstar. Looks like a cool addition to anything you would build. Mike

[@HardCoreFab]

@thercbarn5001 If you wanted to build a heavy hauler, that would be the frame to use. I would guess that one weighs in at a ton for just the bare frame rails. I don't need anything like that.

[@thercbarn5001]

@@HardCoreFab gotcha.

[@HarveysHackShack]

Dude what a score on that load star. I’d love to find one that good.

[@HardCoreFab]

Yeah, it's pretty good. I have no idea when I'll be able to build it but I got it i guess lol

[@HardCoreFab]

I'd trade you for a Dimond T 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@HarveysHackShack]

@@HardCoreFab I got a spare cab. 🤣

[@emmetjones2179]

Link to front end kit plz! Also great Work look forward to seeing more

[@kurtforster8136]

Another Great video 👍🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. How is your wife doing? She is still in our prayers🙏🙏🙏

[@HardCoreFab]

She is getting by. Thanks for thinking of us!

[@billsrq1788]

Hello from Hurricane ravaged Siesta key Florida

[@HardCoreFab]

@billsrq1788 👋 It looked pretty bad there! Hopefully, you are recovering, ok!

[@ThatRustLife]

Thanks for watching. I've been seeing the destruction in what was a beautiful island. It will be beautiful again

[@chuckster6513]

Hey Anthony, That Jeep is going to be suicidal with that engine. But that is why we build some of our toys. That Corn Binder cab really is clean for a truck of it's age. What was the truck built to do with that frame ? I have an "R" model Mack cab that will sit on a custom built frame. I have a 1953 Buick straight eight for power to the one ton dually rear axle. I have an RV fifth wheel which will carry the custom built trailers. Hope Julie is resting easy. See ya in the funnies.

[@HardCoreFab]

I think the binder was a dump truck. The mack would be a fun project!

[@organgrindergarage]

the jeep is gonna really be cool!! the only problem i see with the loadstar is keeping Cory from coming to get it lol! better hide it !

[@HardCoreFab]

Lol

[@richarddevier1922]

the lonestar has a dump truck frame under it

[@ronthompson2366]

Just out of curiosity. Since you mentioned, handle like a vette. Have you ever considered using a corvette rear differential / suspension ? C4 model 44... ? Older model 36 ? Independent monoleaf .... ? Just curious as I remember years ago it was a popular choice in old hotrods.

[@HardCoreFab]

Good question. So a few things with that. He had the Dana 60 already. The Vette rear would be harder to bag, and I'm not sure it could hold the HP and heavy wheel and tire combo.

[@ronthompson2366]

​@HardCoreFab That's true I didn't think about the airbag suspension... and understand that he already had the other. I would be interested know if it could hold up to the horsepower figures.... I do remember a lot of old hot rods built using one. But i greatly appreciate your response, thank you.

[@HardCoreFab]

@ronthompson2366 It's all good. I'll be the first to admit that i don't always think of everything, so... I'm sure the C4 rear could hang for a min, but the super swampers and bead locks are 2 or 3 times the rotating mass as the wheels and tires on most hot rods. That's probably a bigger factor than the 500-ish HP

[@MarekMakes]

I have 2 jeeps sitting here waiting for some love … what is the kit you ordered from Speedway?

[@HardCoreFab]

I emailed you a link

[@FrankMetzenbauer]

How's the Mrs doing ?...when i first started driving i was given an international DT466....it went through 7 transmissions and then the motor finally died....i consider myself allergic to international trucks..

[@HardCoreFab]

She is doing well considering thanks for asking!

[@allenrose8302]

Don't you have a truck to finish? Im the same way.lol.

[@HardCoreFab]

Yes dear.... LOL Working on my truck don't pay very good so that's why I need to work on some other stuff for a min.

[@Mason_Dixon]

Is it just me or was the shots of the vehicles at the beginning so sharp it was blurry? I wear glasses so if it's just me I gotta go back to eye doctor.

[@HardCoreFab]

Not sure but sometime if you have a slow internet speed the quality of the resolution will be bad of video for the first little bit.

[@dannymccarty344]

That aftermarket susp looks cool. Trouble is getting replacement parts. They won't exist in 5 years. Speedway sells offshore junk. Rat rods are cool because of OEM parts hacked together. Throwing money at a project isn't whats cool. "Rat rod engineered" is what people are impressed with. Not store bought cool.

[@HardCoreFab]

I don't see any of the wear items being to big of a deal to replace. They are all pretty common parts. Every thing from here on out is all going to be custom one off stuff so don't worry there will be loads of fab and engineering.
