[@keneldred9030]

Stubby’s really looking great! You guys are doing a great job on it! With all the knowledge you both have, and especially Mr. Chaimberland ‘s wisdom, I don’t see any reason why Stubby should not come out amazing! Keep up the great work guys!

[@marke.howerter-american526]

[@maxpuppy96]

I like what your dad is doing nothing outrageous.

[@neilmcintosh1200]

Jim seems collected and motivated despite that immense body blow. Procrastination, which I believe is a form of depression, seems not to throttle him, thank Goodness.

[@ruanecrummett9261]

Gréât to see you and your Dad

[@bobbarenthin7437]

Thanks for the video at these rough times. That truck is coming along 😊 good job you guys.

[@nostreamavailable9090]

Hey Mike, l reckon the best and cheapest way to block that spare hole in the transmission is with a metal core plug like from an engine block.

[@jamesrogers9801]

So glad to see you both back and my deepest condolences from the UK

[@emiliogonzalez5223]

That's good to see your dad getting around man and you guys are trying to you know get along make it wrong a little bit you should try to use titanium step bits they'll go through that very fast as long as you keep them boiled they will go through fast

[@dandersonjr]

Nice video Mike and Dad.

[@geesss8675]

Duke tuned out AWESOME. Your dad's truck is awesome absolutely amazing the work he has completed on STUBBY

[@johnbuckles3300]

Tell your dad, I'm 68 years old and I do my laundry once a week, and have been doing it for a long time. Been praying that the LORD JESUS will comfort you both.

[@allenhughes867]

Hello to you both nice to see Father and son back to talking and working on the trucks And after your sad news Keep on going and yes the pain of a lost member of the family is hard at first Stay safe think positively George Whelan from the UK 🇬🇧

[@LargeCarLife]

If you don’t run a trans cooler, you’ll need to make a loop hose or buy the little 5 bolt port cover so the pump can circulate oil.

[@bryanclark2879]

Hey, they make these rubber plugs that will go in and they got a wingnut on one end and you tighten the wingnut and expands the rubber and they sell them at like auto parts stores all over. That would be the best bet and if you can’t find them I’ll get you two of them and send them to you, I love your show. Keep doing what you’re doing. You and your dad are awesome people wish I could be there helping you guys I’m Autobody and Paint guy. I’d help you paint all your trucks.

[@bettertoburnoutthanfadeawa2897]

you &dad are exccellent together god bless you all!

[@MrWoodshoes]

Glad to see you both back to work, it's a good distraction, I know from personal experience !

[@DrDiff952]

I hope both are doing fine after difficult time and family mike

[@charlesschnell3821]

Tell your dad that he is doing an amazing job on old stubby bringing it back to life. Keep up the good work guys I love watching your channel.

[@corners3608]

Great to see you and your Dad working together after such a difficult time. Mike, have you heard about that company called Edison Motors down in Merritt that covert old trucks to diesel electric? Now that would be cool to convert one of yours. Maybe they need a demo truck in northern B.C….hint, hint!

[@mikethetrucknut]

Yes I have, I think they are on to something there. Would be cool to make k2 electrified

[@richardhoneywell7411]

Great video Mike and Dad glad to see the progress on stubby. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. Looking forward to your next video stay safe Mike and Dad.

[@davep9199]

Great to see you both.

[@RossYoung1986]

It’s nice to see you and your dad working in such a difficult time. I unfortunately lost my dad a couple of days ago so I can relate how you’re feeling. Stubby is starting to look great I can’t wait to see your dad take it for its first spin up the road once it’s back together. Why don’t you shout Tim from gentry and sons I’m sure he help you out build a engine for Smokey

[@mikethetrucknut]

Sorry for your loss Ross ❤️

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

I can relate to that in my model building... One step forward,,, Then two steps back!!

[@markharlan3202]

Mike, Mark hear, not trying to be a know it all, but I think your retired mechanic was meaning the timing advance in the front cover that the weights are stuck possible. Look into it before u take the air fuel ratio valve off back of pump.that can be a little tricky to put back on if u have never done one before. Also I'm very sorry about your Mom. I wish your Dad an u the best.

[@tommyhall2768]

Hope you are all doing great you r whole family bless you an family Mike

[@gavinosullivan7904]

You guys are legends, getting out there and doing it given all you have just gone through, very well done chaps.

[@martijnderu9115]

Can we have more likes for Mike and Jim?

[@silvioroberti-wt3pl]

Hu Mike I hope everyone is OK good to see you are working on the trucks again. What is happening with the kenworth out side

[@brianmoser260]

That is what I was use one of these trucks for is to haul my 5th wheel camper around the only problem is I don’t want to spend the time nor the money going thru truck driving and getting a CDL when it is only going to be personal use

[@jacobbuckley8232]

Need to get a mag drill

[@danbuchner1494]

Hey Guys glad to see you back Mike if you level the mudflaps on Duke and put a bungey cord through the holes on the hangers they will stay level and wont kick up

[@davep9199]

Stubby is coming together ❤❤

[@traincndr1]

Gentry and sons are outstanding they have a ton of trucks plus a Kenworth t-600 semi truck wrecker

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

I can relate to that too... My model builds have character and patina too lol!!

[@bradh7472]

Great you guys are back! Love the positive attitude.

[@rodneystewart8958]

You may consider the Milwaukee m 18 mag drill for frane holes Jc Smith projects loves his

[@Wolfe351]

a car for the back of Stubbie.....classic Mini CooperS!!!

[@farmcentralohio]

Dented tank makes for good story starter. Leave it like it is. There's plenty of perfect tanks at shows, and people barely notice them.

[@BDW0000]

Quarter fenders behind spring fender may look better?

[@billysmith2494]

So good to see both of you back to it again after such a hard time missed the videos

[@pyzze]

Hi From Sweden a ideé about the plug ... look at hydralic rubber plug that farmers use for the traktor equipment " sorrt for my spelling"

[@danhayes3546]

This time in 2 years time where is Dad? He’s somewhere in his cab over with his 5th wheel camper touring in the us or Canada will be coming out on Mike’s video soon 👌he can set his own KZbin channel up touring

[@john45305]

So sorry for your loss Mike. as a thought, Why don't you remember your mum by renaming one of the trucks in her name and Memory, ( have it put on the truck too) that your doing, it would be great for your dad too knowing that every time he opens the workshop door he will see her name on one of the trucks . All the best my friend

[@richardgreenlaw1442]

Drill and tap the whole and get a plug if they are not available

[@jonathancrothers401]

Buy dad a mag drill best investment ever.
