First thing I remember being taught was how to crank an engine without getting an arm broke. I was 4 in 1941. Grandpa had a 1928 Farmall Regular tractor he had bought new. Had to hand crank it because starters were not an option. Always pull up on the crank handle because if the engine kicked, it would pull the crank out of you hand. If you were pushing down on the crank and it kicked, you were in a world of hurt. I cringed at 14:15 when the drill/crank adaptor was used.

[@darrtoo5767]

Your Dad would be sittin up there with the biggest smile on his face watchin his boys workin away. It’s awesome guys, thank you. Hey you really need to dig a French drain along the front of that workshop to run that water off & around the bottom corner. If only Paul knew a crew with a digger! Cheers 😂🍻👍🏻🇦🇺

Get sand bags and put them in front of the doors on the rainy days. When the water flows away, move them out of your way.

I'm giving this a thumbs up just for the line "I was gonna ride my lawn mower to Chet's, but that ain't happenin'." Graden is the man, and he's going to do big things.

Putting the doghouse on that truck was an awsome idea. Gives a sleeper look. Can't wait to see it doing some amazing burn outs. I think Michelle should get a turn at reducing the rear tire tread as well.

Raid Hornet Blaster is the best stuff for them mean buggers. It'll fire a death stream of poison for a good 50 feet when it's new (that lasts for more than 1/2 the can. And it's instant death for those buggers, the bigger and nastier that they can be just makes them easier targets. Love the new/old rod truck , looks incredible with the addition of the parts off the farm truck.

[@4wdtennessee459]

The locking strip goes in last on the window. Put the rubber gasket on truck or glass some are different on that. Rope or pick the glass in and after it’s in then that locking strip goes in. They are a major pain if you don’t have the tool for it and a lot of soapy water is your friend when installing rope in gaskets. And the front clip really made that truck

[@CraigClarkson]

Grew up around a repair shop .. parts.. techs etc. I have always enjoyed watching how things work...or don't! Great show with family.....what's not to like!

[@brandonfleming8780]

Put the big gasket around the metal frame, get a hook tool or flat head, get bottom of the glass in place and work the gasket around the window starting on both sides working your way to the top middle evenly gently pushing on glass. After glass gets in place you should have a place for small strip that goes in big gasket but that requires the threading tool for that.

[@brandonfleming8780]

Hopefully that was understandable and helpful lol. Also spray glass cleaner or wd while putting small strip in. Maybe see if the local glass shop will let you watch how they did FJ and should have been about the same process.

[@goodbyemr.anderson5065]

Is there some trick were you put a thin rope in first, and the after the glass is in you pull the rope out ans it seals the window? I saw it on some auto body show decades ago, but never fully understood as if something doesn't fit or work for me I just get a bigger hammer lol.
