I was 16 & a local garage owner hired me .. A couple yrs later he retired , but for 40 yrs he had piled his scrap behind his barn , which totaled many tons .. He told me to haul it off h he'd split the ticket with me... It took me 8 days to haul that pile (mostly brake rotors & drums) to the salvage yard .. I could take 3 loads a day with my dads 1/2 ton F100 ... I made just over $4000 as did he . (This was back in 83') I took that money & bought a 77 3/4 ton Ford & a M.F. diesel tractor .. I used that truck to deliver firewood & the tractor to haul it outta the wood... My uncle owned a sawmill & bought standing timber , so I went in & cut the tops up for firewood .. It was free & plenty of it ...whats more it made for a clean timbering operation . I delivered up to 25 miles for $50 & with the money I bought my first acreage ... It was 7.5 acres of beautiful land that had a beautiful stream running through it... I built a beautiful home there a few yrs later & raised my kids... It all started with scrapping iron & lots of hard work..

[@drewhadams]

Nice! Love hearing stories like that!

[@wls3118]

Very cool!

[@creekdweller9662]

Friend, you had more sense than most at a young age. Most boys would have taken the money that was made from such hard labor and just flat out blew it. My hats off to you for you showed signs of a man early on.

[@trentdawg2832]

If only others had the drive that you had back in your come up days!!!………people nowadays are all just expecting a handout ot a stimulus check if you will!!! ….yea times have definitely changed, and not for the better!!

[@PivotableDdave]

Took 900lbs of scrap iron and a mix of other more expensive metals to the recycling yard today. Always a good time making some scrap money.

[@aarg2609]

This MF don't miss. Every video is top notch. Good work. Can't tell you how much I enjoy your channel. Better than half the stuff on cable tv.

agreed gus and Jenn just add to the fun. Chris knows his shit, wish he was my neighbor. I just hope kiddo looks more like jenn.😂 Chris is a lucky hardworking guy, I'm happy for him and jenn.

Hi Mate, My name is Adam from Adelaide Australia. I thoroughly enjoy your content. I like the variety and love your down to earth attitude. I look forward to everyone you put out. Keep them coming, champ.

A mechanic, filmmaker, and entertainer!! Thanks for all the knowledge and effort!

[@cheaptricked]

Chris, your camera work is superb. I wish some of the others (Pole Barn, Junkyard Digs, Vicegrip) would come up to your level. I never miss a shot on your builds and your drone work is second to none.

[@tc7584]

Chris just doesn't F around. I watch VGG, Stay Tuned, Puddin, JYD, PBG and NNKH and every time I see Chris' stuff it's like watching a surgeon conduct his craft. He's a throwback that's for sure.

Ever watch DD Speed Shop or Mortske Repair, pretty good channels also.

Reminds me of my good ole days, Hittin the jackpot on scrap , helpin out some poor ole guy (trying at least) hot rodding around town gettin some gear scratch, dinking withs some lites on the back of your truck, just a good laid back day. Not to forget the swim in ole Georges Delaware crossing path. Final note; do not scrap the A/C on teh Chevelle. You may not want it but someday someone will. Just work around it a little. You do that in Arizona its call molestation. Bypass the heater and live with the inconvenience of the thing in the way. Thanks for taking me along for the ride and the good times. Give Jen a big momma hug . Bless you , and her and your daughter. Peace

[@TNitroH]

Its fun hanging out here with you Chris. Regular guy stuff getting projects done and having fun! Don't apologize!

I loved the exhaust swinging down. Priceless!!

Your drone shots are a great addition to your videos. Whether city scapes or river scenes, I enjoy them all!

You always give us home garage mechanics (term used lightly in my case) hope and re-assurance that you dont need trailer queens to have fun with hotrods. Ty

if theres one thing i love about your channel, which makes you my favorite one even, is that you dont sugarcoat the superiority of manual transmissions that all cars should have

[@Gutterball]

I particularly enjoyed your positive attitude about getting to work. " it might be bad weather, you may not feel like it but just get started and before you know it , you are halfway there "( I am paraphrasing. Reminds me of the woodie Allen quote, Just showing up is half the battle. Excellent advice.

[@toddfraisure1747]

Thank you for simplifying things that I now have the knowledge to not let auto problems worry me as much as they have before binge watching your channel.

[@designsinorbit]

I have NOT seen an exhaust swing down so nice!

[@DizzyMan24]

Man, I remember doing scrap runs when I worked for a Nissan dealer. The '11 Titan Pro-4x weighed 5800lbs emtpy. Rolled up a few times weighing 9,000lbs+. Love it.

[@sokoloft3]

I slightly miss scrapping with my Dad. I don't miss how hard it can be on your body. Still, flinging rotors out the back of the truck I always enjoyed for some reason lol. I more miss the odd jobs we'd do and folks at the flea market that aren't with us anymore. Good times and crazy adventures I'll never forget. Hoping my Dads cataract surgeries go well and we can do some of that again.

[@briancalvey4997]

This video was a fun mix of content. Loved the sound of the Chevelle, found the scrap portion interesting, admired you for trying to help the guy who was broken down, and enjoyed the air boat drone shots. Cool video. 😀

[@gordoncarter6761]

Love the Pole Barn repair, more tech screws

[@Wayne-jg6to]

Good going on the vapor barrier, and putting some 2x6 blocks vertically under the frame will help keep the springs from sagging during long term storage , just enough to take some load off not tires off the ground.👍

[@ghouliesgarage3922]

Yes ! NNNK best day ever !

[@christopheraviles8808]

This Chevelle would be so easy to clean up. And I love the look of the round exhaust pipes coming out the back. Please keep them.

Happy you kept the Chevelle and continue to work on it 👍

Lucky copper heat sink block. 😂 Another great video. Good job on the commercial Gus. 👍🏻

Hi Chris thanks for another great video, I hope Jen is feeling well, I look forward to your videos, they are informative as well as entertaining ,thank you so much sir.

Don't sell the rollback!!! Such a unique truck. But I would understand if you had to. And any ad with Gus in it, there's no way I'm skipping it 😂 . So funny and well done. Unlike the other ads on KZbin. Keep up the great work, Chris!

My dad was a welder in the early 90’s and I remember him rocking those exact red, white, and blue safety glasses!

[@CK-yi6pc]

I remember wearing them…

[@scottalpervitz1019]

Gus-man + better food = more energy? Careful what you ask for. LOL. Same spring setup on my 70 SS Chevelle. Exhaust. Used the Pypes But no cross over and shorty headers for the ground clearance. Yes Pypes could do a little better on fitment for the A Bodies. Had to correct same issue with tail pipes to chassis clearance. Ditched the Pypes mufflers got tired of the droning. Even with full interior and deeding won't help. Went with Dynomax Super Turbos. What a difference. No performance loss that I can tell. %02 H.O. 3200 stall on shift kit 400 turbo auto. Gear Bender to 3.31 Tru-Trac. Good performance and street able.

[@martinlicht1969]

Love that sound, nice job. I once repaired a gas tank leak with a wad of chewed bubble gum and it never failed!❤

I think the numberplates are a perfect restoration! I miss my old volvo sometimes that I could fix with selftappers. My car today is too nice for selftappers, but it has no soul! 😂 (But never breaks down)😂

There’s nothing better than free money, I love doing the occasional scrap run but I’m hanging onto my copper because the world is needing more and more every year. I consider it money in the bank. Cheers

You are doing a great job with the Chevelle the car sounds great it takes me back to my younger years when i saw friend's dad start his 70 ss 396 375 hp 4 speed Chevelle headers with flow masters so sweet and a friend from school his brother had a 63 Nova with a 327 and a tunnel ram and two 450 holley and a 12bolt rear and he was running a 2speed power glide that and my brother had a 78 z28 4 speed so i am glad to be able to witness the i saw growing up 😀

[@ronbunker5778]

That air boat is unstoppable! Cool!

[@rainerjaschke5216]

You should try Seal-All. I've used it on a number of leaking tanks and it works absolutely great. You should be able to find it at any hardware store. Ithink it's a Canadian product, I get it at Canadian Tire. It's completely oil and gas resistant.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

That's what I used for a quick patch in the shop with a piece of tin foil. Sealed like a charm! And then I threw a bunch of that putty over top. But really the tank should be replaced. More rust holes to come.

[@AntDiesel54]

Love the random journeys and escapades lol. Keep it up Chris
