Is This My Craziest Truck Build Ever?

[@stephenbrown571]

I would watch the complete build. Being a truck driver myself I like what you’re doing.

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Stephen, appreciate it!

[@tommievargas6347]

Steve Darnell, all time Badass artis,creator,fabricator!!! Steve missin your TV show come back!!!

[@WelderUpVegas]

We loved doing Vegas Ratrods but the Discovery Channel did not ask us back for another season so we moved on to KZbin and hopefully can give you a closer look at what we do with a lot more freedom. Thanks for your comment, appreciate it Tommie!

[@randallhardin3318]

That truck is exactly the reason All your vehicles are on the next level,, you don't want something someone else has already got,, so far every vehicle that I have seen of yours has been bad ass ,, and I'm 62 years old,,

[@WelderUpVegas]

Nice of you to say, Thanks again Randall!

[@scotty197878]

The truck that donored the bed was pretty cool too! That would make a good budget build too if it’s a runner? 👍👌🇺🇸

[@Axial_Andrew]

Absolutely sick, Steve!! We need to see this monster finished...

[@user-427.commodore]

The 55 would look good on the back of that truck! Cool 😎

[@jjthejet6000]

Steve, you’re like the Wayne Gretzky of creativity! Keep it up crew, looks great!! So tastefully done can’t wait to see it in person

[@WelderUpVegas]

Appreciate your comment JJ. Thanks for watching!

[@knowntalker135]

You make automotive art 👏

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks! I appreciate that!

[@stevencaka1360]

I agree. You have the keen eyes 👀 for shaping/making metal stand out like you do Steve! 😉👍

[@darrenmolloy9147]

I have the t shirt with the green truck . As soon as you make one with that beast I will have to visit Vegas to buy one with the new truck

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Darren!

[@rickduquette3399]

Looking forward to seeing the video of you trucking down the road with those big ol' stacks blasting out their sweet sound. And it goes without saying that we're gonna have to have a knight time shot so we can see all of those lights you keep talking about and the flames shooting out of the torch heads/hand grips. I love watching the wonderful work that all of you folks do in your shop, it is simply amazing.

[@HJZ75driver]

Night*

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Rick! I can't wait to do just that. This build keeps me up at night. It's getting close to complete. Thanks for watching!

[@TravisDeeter]

Hell Yeah Steveo ... Trucks looking Evil AF ... Love it . Thanks for letting me be apart of it.

[@WelderUpVegas]

Travis, Why wouldn't I have the very best! There is only one artist painting my builds and that is you buddy. Thanks for coming along!

[@rhavrane]

Bonjour Steve, I fully agree with you about many points : - You dont' make enough videos, - You can't do anything now without 1000 safety rules to respect - Why make it simple when you can make it complicated You are an uncommon person, not obsessed with money and always passionate, you would deserve even much more subscribers ! Your truck will be unique, and we will never seen it in France or even in Europe 😭 Amicalement, Raphaël

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Raphael, Always nice to hear from you. Thanks so much for your comment, I always appreciate what you have to say. Sometimes I can be too passionate in what I do, I could probably get it built faster and get more videos out.

[@robertsummers753]

YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i kow you would sell alot of those hood handles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@dave2333]

This truck looks AMAZING. I would watch every minute of you and your team working on trucks like this. Thanks for letting us see this amazing build.

[@jimmycline4778]

I prepped masked painted these trucks for 20 years! I don’t miss it whatsoever!

[@WelderUpVegas]

I'm not sure I want to do it again either! Thanks for watching.

[@barrynelson634]

Awesome forethought and foresight. Great ideas and it's coming together very nice! Can't wait to see it finished. Really like the "industrial" theme, you nailed it. Battery box covers are killing it! Keep it all American made!!!!!

[@maxxcherry6955]

Glad the truck is coming together for you. Using the torches as grab handles is a unique idea !

[@mowerjeff8990]

Looking badass. Can’t wait to see finished product. Your one of a kind.

[@kevinbledsoe4425]

I miss the tv show !!! It was a favorite , glad you are still building awesome machine .

[@RogerJG21]

when you said you're going to build another truck, I new it was going to be BAD ASS, and man is it, I love it.

[@snoopu2601]

It's like a rolling Americana history work of a lot of detail what American's used to produce. Still can whether it's in a home drive way or a huge SHOP. As long as Americans are producing something. Teach the younger generation to get involved. To many parent's are raising softies that don't know how to work! Get them involved whether it's wood work, electrical, pip fitting welding, art work or even playing an instrument anything is better than playing video games.

[@rickdaystar477]

Quality of construction and attention to detail sets this truck way out there with it's uniqueness. Gotta tell ya in your opening scene I was looking at your press brake and remembering what it was like working and forming steel on machines with names like Verson and Pexto. I'm retired and miss it all. Before covid bs we used to spend 3-4 months in Vegas for the Winter. Haven't been back out there since. I'd work for free if I had the chance. All old school flat pattern layout like for elbow gores ect. Dinosaur tin knocker. LoL

[@WelderUpVegas]

Covid really did a number on us here in Las Vegas and Welderup. Looking at the strip everyone is back. It's crazy busy. Appreciate your comment and thanks for watching.

[@richardharvey8939]

Amazing work. You could make the side rails on roll up hinged and worked to match other attachments . I know it would be a lot more work. I have hinged type with pull out rings on inside that add more tie down options on my bradfordbuilt bed and I love them. I drop them when loading pallets and have the sides if needed.

[@WelderUpVegas]

Thanks Richard, great idea!

[@jorgenpinoy1724]

Waaw, we need more of them trucks in Europe, it’s so boring over here.. this is absolute art mate.. 🤟🤟🤟🤟😎

[@WelderUpVegas]

Yes, you do! Thanks for watching, appreciate it!

[@ddmau7995]

Hey Steve ,how about using angle iron with rivets on the edges of the bed . Put rubber on the bottom (so it doesn't rattle ) and hinge them so the outside piece lyes flat for fork lifting stuff on the bed ! It will also tie the look together carrying that edge along the bed to the cab .

[@WelderUpVegas]

Good Idea, thanks!

[@stewartelliott3938]

That truck is sick

[@anthonyvirgadamo898]

Being a welder / fabricator I respect everything you build

5 years ago, I built an s10 pick and airbrush it twice, and I thought I was the only crazy person out there. I didn't have real rivets, but I airbrushed all it, even the diamond plate. I won 2nd and 3rd place for years. I'm about to paint my silverado. It's good to see someone else have mad ideas like I got.

[@WelderUpVegas]

The mad ideas keep me up at night. It is all about the details.

Everything you do is epic!! Your builds, your shop and the tours, and your business outlook. It’s just pure gold brother. Thanks for making my life better with such incredible content. It really does make each day better when I see your videos and creations.

Cut the rail off for ease of side loading, but make stake pockets so you can still have your guide rail!
