Laying out the wiring harness for the 55 Chevy Napco clone and painting the dash

[@davidbaker7126]

well im pleased it was you sorting that wiring loom because it would be still sitting in the box as delivered for me well done

[@catskill49murphy27]

Sorting out the spaghetti while drinking beer...My hero...I can't drink beer while I'm drinking beer..

[@jayr5331]

Great ending! Pablo said okay we're done.

[@ronniegarland8621]

That music puts me in a trance 🤣 That's ok though I've been wrenching all day so I come in the house and watch you and mirsky and ignore the ole lady 👍👍

[@dominicdevone2684]

I'm not gonna lie, I had a '65 Malibu SS and the electrical was a nightmare. It had been spliced, diced, and slapped together so many times,, I didn't know what to make of it. Ultimately that was the main reason I sold it. I took it as far as I could,,restoration wise, it spent more time in the garage because I couldn't trust it, hopefully someone somewhere is enjoying it.

[@dennisjones1642]

Hi again Halfass Kustoms Brent from here in the D Michigan 😁😎 hey Thanks again for your time and video , I really appreciate learning something new especially with wiring. 👍🤩

[@brianhaw9398]

It always amazes me how much you do in a few days. Two channels of infotainment, multiple projects,full time job,family. However you do it ,please keep it up and thanks for trying to take some of the mystery out of some complicated subjects!

[@fixinstuff9662]

When I'm feeling lazy, this channel gets me going on my projects.

[@jeffhoop2004]

Thanks again love all your videos . i can now with your help rewire my MANIC G T

[@bbay1977]

Lol brought the COLD snack out and just too much work and not enough Cold snack 😆. Keep up the great work and Content.

[@thedon2512]

Cool at 26 minutes you played my favourite tune again. Thanks, and good luck Ciao uncle

[@ronmolihan5503]

She is taking shape Brent.

[@EdOfTheNorth]

You will never know just how impressed I am with your knowledge and capabilities. All I can say is, "Well done!"

[@terrencebuller7676]

Thanks Brent for all the tips on the wiring, and yes wiring does scare the he!! out of me. lol Great program my friend. Be good. 👍

[@Blgrsslvr]

It scares me too!!

[@bob1117]

Really appreciate you taking the time to bring us these long videos and really enjoy watching you work on all these projects, one of my favorite channels here on YT, thank you.

[@TrendsbySterling]

Brent I pulled a complete 1984 Chevy Caprice wiring harness with tow package. I put it in my 1948 Dodge pilot house pick up. It has all GM running gear. Worked out great. keep up the good work. I also enjoy the video's from the other half as well.

[@robertshank8412]

What I like about Half-Ass is that he seems to have the whole picture in his head and he works on a little bit at a time. Eventually it all comes together. It's fun to watch and I dig the music too.

[@danaowen9014]

Please always were a mask when sanding, we want you around for a long time .😃love the color of the dash.

[@jimternet382]

Brent, enjoyed your video! I love it when someone saves what some would say, it should've been crushed!! It takes certain types of people that sees a blank canvas and makes something cool out of it! Nice video, keep up the good work ,thanks jim 👍

[@astravanmk2]

Awesome, any time a Halfass Kustoms notification pops in I immediately stop what I’m on with to watch.

[@1956fink]

Damn, the truck is looking great. The dash will be a great canvas for some tasty pinstriping.

[@bobmillerick300]

Thanks for the share. Like following your builds. Sure sux you have to replace that windshield. Say hi to Pablo. 😎

[@stucook8622]

Thanks for the Saturday matinee! 🍺🐾

[@harrytaylor6854]

it does look scary but the more i watch you do it is very helpful thank you sir Brent well done

[@jameshicks4944]

That truck is coming together, it's looking good, Can't wait to see you and Pablo driving it around, it's gonna be cool, good video, thankyou.

[@lloydkratka3733]

I enjoy wiring cars and trucks and make good money doing it

[@2tana22]

super helpful Brent ,, thank you,,

[@allanimalstaxi]

Well glad to see another one of your great video Brent. I have been busy myself and may have missed one or two, but I will circle back when I get a chance and watch them. The truck looks like it is coming along great, got the motor in, now ready to wire and first start and interior work is going on as well as exterior. You're gaining on this one, it won't be long and you'll be doing burnouts leaving the garage. I'll tell you, old Pablo is one happy camper when it's time to in the house, he gets all happy showing his emotion doing the doggie shake walk, that I like to see. Take care my friend.

[@davidmack7018]

Brent Pretty cool video thank you for taking us along on your progress on your project. Thanks David

[@WingmanJohnny]

Yeah wiring is something else. But it has to be done. Keep working on the mean machine. I like that truck. Keep up the great work and I will keep on watching

[@rescuedandrestoredgarage]

I do like when people work on the electronics cuz I am the guy that runs scared from wiring lol. And I so need to learn for my 72 chevelle and 62 impala. So it's nice to see how others go through it so ty brother.

[@terryeustice5399]

Your a builder of cars and trucks. Explaining wiring is like Greek to most of us. Your knowledge on switching to these LS engines and wiring them. Your one of the best. Thank you Brent for sharing your knowledge with us.

[@johnhouseholder7682]

Wiring is sorcery to me but I still liked the progress and the Pablo sighting, lol.thanks john from arizona

[@vernonslone8627]

I like Ron Francis wiring kits.....They have really good instructions with them and each wire is screwed to the fuse box for easy replacement if you screw one up...Just some more info...

[@4STEVEJOY34]

Looks like the wire harness is like life. Separate things in to manageable bits.

[@outboardnut]

I like the long videos.This guy has NO fear.Great attitude!

[@StirlingLighthouse]

During the wiring time lapse, your beer hardly moved. 🤔 Mine would have a lot more. Maybe I found a solution to wiring! lol Thanks Brent! 🙏

[@edryan2926]

Great video! Good explanation of the wiring harness thus far, and it holds true for all older cars Pre-computer. Next, I'm anxious to see how it marries up to the computer box for the LS. Keep up the great work.

[@robbieautrey3158]

Nice job Brent, thanks for taking the time to explain all of that wiring. Dash came out great to, i like that shade of grey. Looks like that is the best part of Pablo's day, when you are finished for the day/night and ready to go in.

[@philjohnston9616]

I like your choice of going with 2 tone grey for the interior. Cool build

[@donaldhalls2189]

It's looking great not a lot more to the wiring, made pretty easy, here are some engine noises to tied you over, brooooom brooooom brooooom, 😅🤣 looking forward to hearing them, all the best to you and your loved ones

[@stevearroyo9076]

Great job on the dash!! Came out fantastic! Who knew rattle can could produce such awesome results right??!! lol. Also digging that 5 window in your primary bay...SWEET!

[@frankleonard6570]

you know there is 1000's of youtube channels that build and rebuild cars! your channel brent is my favorite! everytime you post its a treat for me. makes me very happy its much better than a mouvie and i actually learn something! 👍 youre a master builder and a genius at wiring not many people can do this. back when i was younger and the world was still kinda normal lol.i used to have friends that had shops and i would go hang out there and watch them wprk. but they were nowhere as good as you. but i still learned a lot. today we dont visit but i grab a cold beer and greatly enjoy your fantastic builds thru your videos. i really like your work and your choice of vehicules! seems like all those very expensive and complicated supercars and supertrucks builds that everyone else builds is totally out of reach of an ordinary person as that cost a fortune and is very hard to build. and not practical and kinda useless! your builds are simple and practical and within reach of the average person. this is the very best kinds of car builds. cheap. uselfull and simple rugged and practical yet durable and very enjoyable this is great! 👌 god bless you brent! keep up the great work! thank you!

[@billyhaddock5540]

Congrats Brent on getting some of the wiring done. Dash looks great.. Cool Pablo wanting to get some food and go to bed..

[@tomsilven]

Thanks, as always, I'm already looking forward to the next episode.😀

[@emanuel_erol_germann]

Am sort of always looking forward to the next Vid, otherwise much thanks for the great company & innovative thinking !! Lol: Still got to get around understanding fully the electrical part, if I may add !

[@noelmcgarry456]

Thanks Brent - never miss an episode

[@gman2974]

Another great project coming together!

[@kenmanzo8471]

That gray is 👍gonna be another good one!!

[@blackbuttecruizr]

Awesome progress!

[@timhanson2080]

I like thet darker gray on the dash. Wiring is always time consuming. But you always make it look easy. Thanks for the video 👍

[@richo2895]

Nice explanation on the wires

[@harrymonahan4999]

PABLO said he likes it when paint is flowing cause time is short i think but we will see looking for that first ride OH he said put a little heater in it helping the paint dry

[@rcharles6123]

It's Ron in Ontario and once again I really enjoyed this video Happy Thanksgiving stay safe

[@jerryt6177]

You're right. Wiring scares the Maple leafs out of most of us!

[@usmclee65]

Its going great, all of needs to get done is getting done, we don't expect to have you cover everything in any order, because it never really does when you are changing everything and mixing old with new, thanks for showing it, thats why we watch ! Thanks again Brent !

[@Bman2020]

Like the dash colour awesome 👍👋🇨🇦

[@craigsowers8456]

"Scuff" ??? LOL ... turned out GREAT !!!

[@garylamb4777]

Another awesome video Brent

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Brent :) also I would say that back of cab paint up were old fuel tank is also to while other dash paint dries up too! Also get small heater so help dries paint you buy at local hardware store size only need is like toaster has 1500 Watts top high settings to plus have a heat adjustment to come handy for sure ! Also Happy Thanksgiving Holiday Weekend Brent :) also everyone in Canada!

[@keonikaig9247]

Brilliant Brent.... 👍

[@Paleoman52]

You always amaze me with your wiring skills! I'm really enjoying this build, great job!

[@williamjones9099]

Really luvin this build she’s lookin good my friend

[@danielbrewer8472]

Looking forward to fireing this 55 piglet up. I also need to see you redo the windshield and that gasket rope trick . Been hearing about that process for years never watched it actually happen first hand. Hey Pablo' tell your dad good job

[@brianschmidt2747]

Every time, watch another installment of this awesome build. All my favorite things. GMC LS Traction tires even long bed 3/4 ton. Well, sorry, rambling. Brent love your work. Oh, tilt bed is too cool. If you ever need a 60 year old apprentice, I would love to work with or for. Thank you

[@paulbonell5911]

Dash came up a treat hey. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@davidnelson6893]

That truck is cool the wires ok with me

[@ronbunker5778]

I think your explanation of the wire harness puts everything into perspective. Makes it easy to understand for me anyway. Another great video!!

[@gofishingwhenyoucan]

Awesome video by my friend 👍😎

[@frankmcnab522]

My friend and I are building the same truck 57 chevy 3100 on a 83 blazer frame it’s turning into a frankenstien special

[@mattymcdonald6769]

Iam waiting patiently to see your videos keep up all the good work from matty in Scotland

[@mattymcdonald6769]

Thanks for the heart ❤️ maid my day

[@michaelbuettner6560]

You're right, it can be a bit overwhelming. I have a 52 Plymouth that I have an aftermarket loom which will work, I have 59 Chevy dash for it and when fire wall mods are finished, and we know the 75 Caddy engine fits and clears, we'll tackle master cylinder and then wiring... Big help watching.

[@lostkiwi2695]

That two tone grey on grey dash looks really sharp. Loving this build series.

[@jimcarlisle2309]

You are a superstar when it comes to wiring!

[@amascia8327]

Looks like patience is the main requirement for building cars? 👍🤠

[@Zenny_6969]

..hey Brent...good move and worth the effort to slick up the dash.....after all, that's the thing that will be in your face every time you drive it......luving this build.....

[@dominicdevone2684]

Awesome work as always Brent. I feel like I'm back in auto tech in school. :) Like a lot of people are saying on here, thank you. Thank you for taking the time and thoroughly explaining what you're doing and why. Like a lot of people say your channel is indeed one of my favorites and I always look forward to what you do next. Thank you!

[@CrusadesOClock]

patio heaters are pretty good for drying paint. Glad you stuck with the grey!

[@tommarkham7760]

I wanna hear them headers 👍

[@job38four10]

I like the two tone grey look, good choice. I'm kind a anxious in the brake petal and steering column clearances or lack there of. Your show goes good with a bowl of ice cream..........

[@rustedjunkgarage3316]

Now I want to do the dash on my 55 Chevy truck. Nice work laying out the wiring, my water temp gauge is mechanical with the little tube hard wired that is full of magic juice that makes it work, gotta be careful not to break that tube, ask me how I know that. Nice work Brent. 👍

[@RANDYSMITHOU812]

I injoy watching you work I'd love to be in my shop but health and being gone driving a truck just no time

[@ronaldolweiler7745]

Really liking this project . Nice , simple , wouldn't an under dash ac unit look great in there !

[@lorenmeyer5290]

Brent you sure make that harness look easy! Always enjoy watching you do your thing so easy!!!

[@kevietrucks3402]

Looking good . Make note of the windshield weather strip the wide part goes at the top . If you put it at the bottom it covers the defroster vents don't ask how i know lol .

[@HalfassKustoms]

Good to know haha

[@davidbohner2061]

Man you know those LS motors inside and out! As usual, great and interesting job. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✅✅✅✅✅

[@jeffwilson3865]

This is going to be a awesome truck just like the international great job as always

[@bobchipman9152]

As always Brent, great work on the truck ,I have to say the Grey on the dash looks great ,looking forward to the next video.

[@donnie2533]

Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks

[@robanderson6173]

Good thing that speedo goes up to a 100 mph, that truck is looking fast.

[@War_Hammer]

love it .. I like to go into details, especially the wires. Thank you for your hard work ..

[@jbj27406]

That's the most elaborate "scuff and shoot" I've seen in a good while. But I'm glad you went all out on it. That'll make the interior of the truck. Effort well invested. Dust mask? Please?

[@donahartsr.319]

Someone like myself who is some what mechanically inclined! I followed you on the separation of the wiring harness and understood it perfectly. can't wait for the next video!

[@dayslife]

well Brent, i find this build is so captivating , watching you do so many things , the video time just flies, it shows well what and the time it really takes ......

[@davidsolloway9349]

Terrific wiring harness install

[@davidconley3610]

You made the wiring look easy to me!!

[@CSmith-oz4wp]

Oh my god, my brain just exploded watching you with the wire harness.

[@davidcoe5656]

You got a awesome grasp on that wiring stuff! Love it! Btw love the dogs!!

[@Icebuntrucker]

Looking good , Also love your choice of backing music .

[@pgprice1663]
