Just another day on the skids. 1940 Ford shop truck continues

[@errolf6031]

I like that you are using this truck to actually do truck things now and then. Too many people turn pickups into trailer queens these days. Looking forward to many more videos of the pickup, as well as Mabel.

* Cool ! You got the light I sent you for Christmas ! I was worried the porch pirates got it. Thanks for the entertainment this year Mr. Anderson. I sent those to each of my four favorite sites this year. Those are great lights. Cheers Buddy and Happy Holidays to you and Laura and the family. (Paul) 🎄

[@brendanmurphy1816]

Truck looks really cool. The Frankenstein scar on the fender arch just "belongs". Auto archeology. Have a great Christmas and New Year

[@anthonyacevedo8366]

Merry Christmas!!!! Thanks for the videos

[@Theoldironworkshop]

I wish you a Merry Christmas too!

[@anthonyacevedo8366]

@ next time u in Boston have a meet n greet im in NH not too far from bean town

[@DPaint-v5j]

paint used motor oil to protect it. Burn it with a blow torch. It will srink 3/16 each side when dried out. You could weld in one Ince square tube in the gaps. Let go rusty. Maybe needs some arty box. Carry a jack tow rope tools. Old coke fridge cut up. 👍👍☃️🇬🇧 great job. Maybe weld some 3/4 rebar around skid plate. Or some sacrificial rub bars. Make some sparks. 😂. Happy new year.

It's great to see you Truck is looking great. Merry Christmas to you and the family

Merry Christmas to you and your family. I believe those bolts are called Carriage bolts. Great job all the way around.

[@Theoldironworkshop]

Yes the old age. Although different countries different names

[@scottmccloud9029]

@Theoldironworkshop Copy that. Have a great Christmas.

[@dogbitefred6631]

Low rent, love it! Love the way the pit bull obeyed you, he left just like he was told. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you.

Yeah that’s my sister’s dog. She’s the best

[@mcm9329]

merry christmas to you and the wife...and thanks for the years vids I use old sump oil to finish woodwork for outdoor use..looks good and enviro friendly, cos I know you like that ;-)

[@Theoldironworkshop]

Thanks! Merry Christmas to you too.

[@MarshalRaelynn]

You could lose a whole bucket full of 10mm sockets in that bed. Looks good though. See you on the next one.😎🇺🇸😎

[@andymccracken4046]

Nice work there and I expect it feels better on the road now with all the wheels pointing the same way!

[@Theoldironworkshop]

Yeah no kidding

[@kdsboosted4954]

Very cool 🤙 for stain application use a wool pad or rag wax on wax off much easier. A roller is a pain you have to completely soak it then it's messy. You can burn the wood a skiff for darker grain definition. I'd hit it with a clear of some sort first couple coats of stain don't last long. You could also hit hit with clear stain 2-3 more times then it'll last for a few years. If not you have months before it fads

[@JuanCarlos-wf7et]

Bah Humbug. Haha, I’m just kidding.

[@DG-hb8rh]

@Theoldironworkshop haaaahaaaa do feel that way sometimes ha,ha

[@DPaint-v5j]

I seen some old fixes from the fortys. They used rivites. Id pull the pops and dolly rivets in. Pop rivets are 70s/80s. 👍👍☃️🇬🇧..

[@adventureswithedna]

14:23 the hood ornament broke off Edna a whike back, so we did a couple videos cutting out the metal on the hood and weldlding in a patch. Since Edna is a patina truck everyone said the leave the patch visible because its part of her story now. Which was a great way to look at it. So we gound down the welds and left the patch for all to see

[@Theoldironworkshop]

It’s like a road map of history

[@adventureswithedna]

@Theoldironworkshop absolutely

[@chris85mora]

There’s a 53 Chevy truck sitting over at my grandparents place across the road from me. I’m hoping one day I can merge that one with my 6.0 LQ9 and 4l65 out of my 2000 Silverado..

[@Theoldironworkshop]

Heck yeah

[@reverendjamesb4256]

First off, Merry Christmas to you and yours! Also, in case you aren't aware, but I bet you are, when putting down decking, make sure the bark side of the board is up. That way, as it dries, it will arch up instead of cupping and holding water.

[@rickregister9424]

Merry Christmas Lee

[@Theoldironworkshop]

Merry Christmas! to you as well. hope all is good with you

[@rickregister9424]

@Theoldironworkshop still alive so can't complain.

[@larryreece1403]

The Bet Guinness I ever had state side was at the harbor in Boston!

[@adventureswithedna]

2:00 we just did an alignment video on edna a few weeks ago using jigs just like the omes you made

[@duconce]

bigger diameter wheels, nice ride

[@richardhaywood4123]

Unless you decide to fully body restore it I would leave the patch panels as they are. Part of its history. Try and find a cover for the torque converter although your skid plate will protect it.

[@Theoldironworkshop]

Yeah definitely need a cover

[@joesprague1464]

Leave the old repairs,it adds character. My ‘48 f1 has similar repairs from years gone by,doesn’t really detract from its function or appearance.

[@olddog1014]

It matches the rest of the truck , aged .

[@Theoldironworkshop]

That’s the idea

[@tony.toronto]

Hm. Should of had a few drinks before hand. You are capable of so much more. We all have bad hair days

[@DarkFlamage]

Uhhhh, you're gonna lose all your grain & seed corn hauling with that bed floor! Looks good though.

[@Theoldironworkshop]

That’s the idea. Never have to clean it

[@georgegowman1249]

I probably missed something. Where is the Hearse?

[@rickregister9424]

Fix fenders on the outside but leave the patch on the inside

[@richardhaywood4123]

If you could deal with the pain lifting the motor and trans would be ideal,or you could raise the front ride height up a little.

[@Theoldironworkshop]

I’m actually going to put a little larger tire on the front. That will help a bit

[@richardhaywood4123]

@@Theoldironworkshop yes that will help and the stance won't change too much either.

[@bobberndt9744]

I wonder . . . Do you 'write yourself notes' about all those little things, or do you remember them, or re-recognize those flaws, or ...??
