HOTROD HAULER PT8 ENGINE PLACEMENT, RADIATOR ISSUES AND BAD NEWS....

ITS BEEN A LONG HARD ROAD GETTING TO THIS POINT BUT IT LOOKS LIKE IT JUST GOT LONGER AND A LOT HARDER.....

[@25vrd48]

Lessons , what you learn building hot rods and modified trucks . Just when you think you have it figured out and another problem rears it's head . Good build J.C. and lady .

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

That's the beauty of mocking-up a project, things can always be altered 😎👍 Nice buy on the IH tandem as well J.C 🔧 I hope you and Mrs.S have a wonderful Sunday

You're not afraid of hard work. Moving the cab will be interesting.

[@johnwilliams4545]

So glad you're changing it, it never looked right to me.

[@petem6291]

J.C . you put so much hard work into the Hot rod hauler What about putting a custom tool box/fuel tank in that space or a crane ??? just putting it out there , we are making lemon aid from lemons I only see opportunity here ....

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

😁😁😁 After mentioning several times that you need/want to downsize and after already owning two properties full of trucks and parts, buying another truck seems exactly what you need the most.👍👌👏 By the way: I'm just as bad in downsizing too. 😁😁😁 The good thing is, that you will never run out of projects. And therefore we viewers will have the pleasure to watch a lot of your great videos in the future.

[@randycecil7375]

I was thinking you'd want the engine further forward. Help to put weight on the front axle. Might help handling?? Going to be a very cool build!!!!

[@terryfromsouthcarolina4601]

And the plot thickens........ LOL! Go for it JC! As far as powerplants for your hotrod truck......no turbines! I had enough of the damned things in the Air Force. You put one in and I'm out of here. LOL! You do what JC does and I'll be here. Even if it's a turbine. Maybe. Cheers Terry

[@Cheese_Piedogi]

What happened to Mrs. J.C.’s idea of putting the new engine back under the cab? I understand it’s your deal, but that engine waaaay back there seems like such a waste of very valuable real estate. Love the progress!!

[@markmcnally6800]

Turn the cooling package sideways, there won't be any natural airflow anyway

[@JamesPretty]

well, if you don't like it change it. I completely understand project reversal. can't wait to see the changes.

[@downrightme6811]

No one should take advantage of anyone, especially family. Do what you say you’re going to do!!!

[@JeronWhite]

The a good.jc keep that one and if you wanted to make a toe rig, get that fit willing there, fix it up.Have a backup to tow truck with that truck.Everything else is a good truck

[@purpleracing507]

With that tool box I was expecting you to say 6-7 weeks, maybe even 6-7 months, not 6+ years! Who buys a tool box and doesn't pick it up for 6 years! I'd say you are right that for storage fee's you own it again, so you can sell it on to someone else

[@jeffo881]

A J.C. Smith project that gets derailed and goes an entire different direction? No that never happens. this channel is like watching a movie with ever changing plot twists, don't go a changing. Mr. Smith I'm not telling you anything you don't already know but your wife is a trooper, jumping right in there and as "particular" as you are about things that can't be easy.

[@joeg7755]

Interesting to see if that cab will be turned into the first 4 door COE.

[@joeiamoroso1494]

It's ok, it's fine, no bodies perfect .At least you have another option for your hotrod hauler chassis.

[@JeronWhite]

This is going to be cool

[@deliciousgixxer3670]

Maaaaaan id be more than willing to donate my time an knowledge for allthings crazy lol great work!

[@PhilWolfe-tp3tv]

I am to see that the cab over is still in the works. Are you still going with your wife ideal built

[@dd022585]

Ive been on Brandon about getting that truck done lol 😂😂😂

[@michaelmason9378]

Ok not an 8v71. He's going for the12v71

[@NathansMoparGarage]

Sometimes you like it until you see it. Shouldn't be too bad modifying it again.

[@ianatkinson8464]
