Life gets in the way sometimes. We understand. Post what you can post. Love the work your doing. Glad to see the wife in good spirits. I'll keep you guys in my prayers.

[@HardCoreFab]

Thank you!

[@jamesmedina2119]

Amen man.

[@brenttraylor5874]

😮😂❤❤ Love the Hair Julie. I think Anothy needs to dye the beard to match😂😅. Good to see you finishing that cab yes the rendering picture needed completed. I need to come check it out. Can’t wait to see the shirts. Also noticed you brought the fork lift over to the new building. I bet that’s way better. “” Rock and Roll “” 🎸 🎉

[@ThatRustLife]

Ha ha! Thanks, Brent! Hope to see you soon!

[@HardCoreFab]

Thanks for the super thanks!!!! I'm not dying shit. Lol 100% having the gas forklift is so much better, and yes, come by, check it out, and we'll get lunch too!

[@larrylong6268]

Thank you for reconsidering the sleeper, your original idea for the sleeper was a great idea.

[@kennyphillips8603]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I am so glad you decided to do the sleeper. This makes me very happy.

[@HardCoreFab]

You are so welcome!

[@paulmaigler289]

Your design/rendering of the build is very awesome and I’m glad you are going forward with the sleeper. So good to see Julie in great spirits, thanks for the videos/entertainment!!!

[@HardCoreFab]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@edryan2926]

I love that opening sequence with all music and no talking. That is what we come here to see, some hard core fabrication. Keep mixing it up like that, and great to see that you want to continue on with the Sleeper idea. Your ideas are great. Prayers go out to Julie and keep up the good fight.

[@HardCoreFab]

Thank you, and thanks for noticing the opening. I was pretty happy with that, too!

[@donaldhalls2189]

It's great to see Julie looking well,and enthusiastic, 😂 wishing her all the best, the truck's coming along great, sleeper set's it off, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones

[@HardCoreFab]

and to you and yours!

[@normabrawner4881]

Glad to see you are getting the sleeper done it’s going to look good on the C 50 .

[@HardCoreFab]

Hope so!

[@DonaldLucus]

Glad you are doing the sleeper , it will look great .

[@1320freek]

Great idea with the 2 cabs!!! Love it!!! Thanks for the video.

[@victor440_]

I'm so glad you're finishing that building because the rendering of it looks awesome 👍

[@HardCoreFab]

Me too!

[@joethanks3745]

I'm glad that you are doing the sleeper great build✌🏻🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲 Now I can't hardly wait till next week

[@Ducky69247]

Haven't seen but a couple of these, but I'm glad to see a sleeper build after all. It's going to look awesome.

[@fredericrike5974]

Hot dog! It did look strange without something large and sleeper like behind the cab! Great to see Julie still in the fight and talking the win; stay on that path girl! Loved the great guitar work you chose- it fit both the style and the project really well.

[@HardCoreFab]

Thanks!

[@chuckster6513]

Hey Anthony Glad to see Julie in good spirits. That long dark wig must carry some magic, same as Frosty's top hat did. I am so happy to see ya doing the sleeper. It doesn't look long enough, but at least it is something to fill the gap.

[@HardCoreFab]

It's bigger than it looks it's 45 inches which is bigger than the average semi. Plus the 6 inches in the cab and 3 or so to tie them together is going to add up to a lot of extra space.

[@ThatRustLife]

The wig beats the bald head!

[@danishamericanwarrior5202]

Awesome idea. Glad you are doing the sleeper.

[@markstack2309]

Cool video very glad Julie has the attitude and cheerful absolutely excellent. Most get down in the dumps. She will get through this my mom made it and she's 89 I got faith

[@TrendsbySterling]

Nice to see Julie. Always enjoying the music you have in your videos Anthony. Can't wait to see how the sleeper is going to turn out. Oh, I got my preorder in so looking forward to it too!

[@HardCoreFab]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

[@C10TruckNerd]

What a cool idea with the two cabs! I’m glad you decided to come back to the sleeper. It’s going to look awesome!

[@HardCoreFab]

Yeah it really needed something to fill the gap

[@johnkranz4004]

Excellent work Antony and Connor Looking Beautiful Julie Great video

[@benjaminreinhardt259]

Glad the ball joint failed coming out of a parking lot. My dad had one fail in my driveway, made fixing it easy. Can you imagine if it failed rolling down the interstate?! Good to see you going forward with the sleeper. Don't let life beat you down.

[@HardCoreFab]

Yeah, even just doing the 45 or 50 on the way home would have been pretty bad!!!

[@hotrodhudson18]

This is looking great man. You guys are really doing a nice job on this. Welding the 2 cabs together is perfect.

[@SuperDave-xs6pt]

Good to see Julie in good spirits. My wife is a 24 year survivor! Fight like a girl!!!

[@k2mslskier]

I love watching artists work. I envy the skills you possess.

[@HardCoreFab]

@@k2mslskier Thank you!

[@SteveCowles-p1l]

So glad to see you are doing ok. Glad the mrs seems to be soldiering on. God bless you and your family

[@Thewarhorse47]

Huge fan and soooo happy to see the sleeper. Post what you can but do what you must. Your viewers aren’t going anywhere.

[@HardCoreFab]

Thanks man!

[@penguinbrand]

Glad to see you back on the truck. Sleeper will be awesome

[@HogshooterHotrods]

Very nice outcome on the sleeper, great to see Julie motivated and in the video! Praying for you both!

[@HardCoreFab]

Thanks man!!!

[@whittlerdave1440]

I agree with you Make it like it was come out of the factory I like how you're doing this I think it's going to look pretty awesome I hope everything is going great with your wife sending some more prayers that the doctors give her good reports Great channel and great builds really enjoy it

[@HardCoreFab]

Thank you so much!

[@Boat_Garage]

Your fab skills really make watching enjoyable. It’s super cool when you just cut things apart the put them back together like they were meant to be like that!

[@HardCoreFab]

Thank you!

[@stevemustaikis6602]

You make it look so easy. Yes the truck needed a sleeper. You probably have the panels made up already but heres a idea for you. You have 2 door latches on the pieced together cabs and no hinges. Put 2 doors together and hinge at the top and use the existing 2 latches on the cab to secure the door. Yeh, you can do it.

[@martinpook5707]

Good to see the sleeper will go on, I think the balance will be better. Thar's a great colour, Julie!

[@thercbarn5001]

Awesome!!!!! I'm so happy your putting a sleeper on it! Can't wait to see more of it. Mike

[@skeltane]

So glad you reconsidered the sleeper. Was a little disappointed. Now I'm excited. Can't wait till the next installment.

[@AlanPitt-y3n]

Awesome work again love it 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@BrianSilva-o6p]

From a viewer down in newzealand well done on your videos enjoying watching and wishing good health to your wife and family

[@HardCoreFab]

Thank you!

[@MrSilverado1982]

Going to be interesting to see how you attach this to the cab great idea that is cool!

[@Grumpygrandpasgardenandgarage]

I'd suggest widen the sleeper so you can actually use it when needed then some nice tall strait cut stacks in the corners behind the doors in front of the sleeper. Your vision, your build. It's definitely cool. That was just my two cents.

[@HardCoreFab]

Definitely gets wider and I did think about the stacks going there but we'll see what happens

[@roadtoadgarage]

Are you going to do an access on passenger my blank a door and hang it. Or half door for loading up luggage and stuff.

[@HardCoreFab]

Good question, I thought about doors and I'm just not sure yet.

[@Ducky69247]

A half door is an awesome idea. And I'd say one is all you need.

[@donniehamlett2157]

I was gonna ask the same thing

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

I was against the sleeper,... ...but now...this is much cooler than I imagined....So from here on out I'm going to act like I was for the sleeper from day one! Hell, I even talked you into it. tHanks me!

[@HardCoreFab]

😆 😂 😆

[@joehoeksema2686]

Hope all well at your house thank you for taking the time to show some odd body modding

[@HeffleyCustoms]

Glad to see Julie is doing well

[@carlpbrill]

Nice Spyderco Man!!

[@HardCoreFab]

One of my most used tools

[@bladenrexroth2555]

That cab design is pretty slick. Should call it the in-laws cab lol. A bit more length to it and all you'd need is the rear folding seat from a conversion van. Have the option for keeping the grand kids or in laws in their own separate space with their own music or have the seat lay flat for much needed rest.

[@HardCoreFab]

@@bladenrexroth2555 I 100% need one of those seats

[@alanstryker7355]

Cool video,love your custom plan & work!Way to make the truck your own like nobody else's.

[@HardCoreFab]

Thanks!

[@joescully566]

God bless what ever you rake on. Do what you can and don't worry about what you don't do. Any normal person will understand. Love and peace, Joe, England ❤❤❤❤

[@stevehild1387]

Great project! Are you going to widen the sleeper so it has some bump out from the cab?

[@HardCoreFab]

That's the plan!

[@victor440_]

Tell Julie I wish her the best I know what she's going through I'm going through the same thing 👍🙏

[@HardCoreFab]

I will and best to you as well!

[@victor440_]

@HardCoreFab thank you

[@HitokiriRaiden]

Nice to you going ahead with the sleeper should look awesome when it done.

[@mikebuckley5740]

Hope your treatments go well . I’m 73 never had a place to build anything

[@alanpaulick7815]

Thanks for sharing. Will definitely follow this one. Take care and be safe.

[@scottiniowa1]

Getting right into the cutting! No time to mess around!

[@lolife999]

I hope you leave the windows in the sides. Use your doors to make the sides.

[@tootightconcepts747]

I’m glad to see there building the sleeper it’s going to be cool 😎

Cool...progress.. 👋Julie.... 👍😎💯🇺🇲

Nice build going on! Glad to see Julie smiles, nice hair 🎃Happy Halloween 🎃

[@HardCoreFab]

Yeah, she gets a couple of good days in between the ruff ones.

[@MacsSpecialitiesProperties]

Yes, SLEEPER Action!!

[@johngallagher5341]

I’m cool with whatever you wanna do we all have to keep in mind these are your projects and not so much about what we think and want. You are showing us what we all can accomplish if we put in the effort and the hard work and time as some of the keyboard warriors of someone that has no problem criticizing you and others for doing what they can’t do or try doing. But most of all you’re family and you come before any build we who in joy learning what could be done if you put time into will be here know matter what you put out here. Thank you and prayers for your family and your god knows what you’re sacrificing for your family.

[@HardCoreFab]

Thank you for the wise words!

[@impalaman4546]

It's going to look great 👍

[@roadtoadgarage]

Looks good dude.

[@Mopar46]

I kept forgetting what that space between the cab and the trailer, was for.

[@HardCoreFab]

Lol

[@Profabdesigns]

That helper boy needs to put on some safety glasses when using that parting wheel. Better to use a flap disc rather than 1mm parting disc, just saying. Nice work joining those 2 half cabs!

[@dudet9662]

I don't know what's goin on around here but I like it

[@HardCoreFab]

Lol

[@Uswesi1527]

Ingenious work

[@upclass7179]

I am glad you are making the sleeper cab!! But why you make it so small? Since it is that size, how about making a door, on the driver's side only that swing up like a wing to show off inside?

[@HardCoreFab]

That's an idea.

[@chrisbradley7125]

Gonna be awesome brother

[@scottmasalski9521]

Praying about doctor's appointments, it's good to just be busy and not think about it

[@HardCoreFab]

Yes it is

[@ronaldfarmer1208]

looking good !

[@shanewhite4227]

Julie looks good with purple hair Anthony she a keeper lol 😆

[@ericfallis6202]

Happy Halloween 😊 love the hair color lol

[@audieholliday4706]

Really enjoy your videos. Very interesting

[@HardCoreFab]

Glad you like them!

[@jamesrankin9833]

Good stuff!

[@tonyengland1974]

keep up awesome work

[@SWAMPRABBIT12]

Just curious. What was you deciding factor to split the cabs where you did? Looks great. Keep up the work.

[@HardCoreFab]

I just did pretty much in half other then the floor was off to one side just to make it a little easier to put back together

[@Terry.Wilson.]

Are you going to make the sleeper taller and wider than the cab of the c50 similar to your rendering?

[@HardCoreFab]

Yes, so a bunch more cutting and welding!

[@Terry.Wilson.]

@@HardCoreFabcan’t wait to see it! That’s gonna be an awesome truck!

Hi I just discovered the super video channel I am a fan of American cars but especially customizing the class I come to work with you to learn everything I subscribe to the channel And I say big Big UP to you from France 🇨🇵 I would love to buy a project like that in the next video 🇨🇵👍💪👌😎🔥🔥🔥🔥🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🤙

Thanks for watching! This project might be for sale at some point but it will be a while.

[@ThatRustLife]

Thank you ❤

[@charliemclaughlin1042]

The sleeper reminds me of a tiny van

[@HardCoreFab]

Looking from the side, I thought that too.

[@tertessa]

Looking good 👍....🙏🙏🙏

[@Phorhesa]

I had a photo shop design for a sleeper cab like this on a 65 GMC one ton I use to have.

[@HardCoreFab]

@@Phorhesa cool did you build it?

[@chalinp4886]

Alway amazing when people chop and dice c10s I seen a guy do a one and it looked like Jeep rock crawler you had to see it for yourself

[@HardCoreFab]

I would like to see that.

[@chalinp4886]

@ I think I seen it on a 4x4 magazine about a few years back I don’t recal who was the owner but it was olive drap paint if I find it I will post a link for you

[@ronaldduwaynebrown8071]

Gonna be cool

[@dwaynelejeune3508]

Would you give a little more insight on what you’re doing to attach! Ie more information on what to do , not do.. tips and/or tricks as you do the work! I’m in first stage of building my very first 65C-10 and eventually would like to build another 60-69 c -10 four door! I always take notes and/or save a vid so I can reference task/ideals. TIA

[@HardCoreFab]

It may be a week or two, but yes, there will be another video on the sleeper with that info.

[@kennyphillips8603]

This probably has been asked before. But where do you get your music from for your videos?

[@RobErt-sr9hl]

Go julie 👍👍👍

[@jackman6256]

Not being a know it all because i dont know anything ok But ive seen bad chad lay voat hanger wire in that gap when he Seam it up it comes out pretty level too on top of cab

[@HardCoreFab]

I guess that's ok If you can't get the panels to fit right but the gap I welded on the top was 1/16 or less so pretty easy to mig weld.

[@timsutterby9899]

Awesome

[@shotsrodder]

Cool 😎

[@kodak_jack]

It seemed as if Connor was welding/ filling some decent size gaps in the floor. It also looked as if he could have helped you a lot if he was on the inside pushing up while you were welding the top seams. The best to Julie.

[@HardCoreFab]

There was zero gap in the floor. I over lapped the panels by a 1/4 inch. Yes, it would have been nice to have some help on the roof, but I was the only one there at the time, so I made it work.
