Well the truck will always be there. But Momma's cooking will not ..So hug her while you can. My mom passed away in 2011 man I miss her and her cooking. I wish heaven had a phone line... love the videos Rock On

[@madmex2k]

I feel ya. Mama passed away and they buried her on Valentine's Day 15 years ago. My only-est Valentine anymore. My sister managed to save a recording of Mama saying "I love you!" to my niece, we all cry when we hear her voice. When she was here, I took her nearly every week to eat at her favorite cafeteria, and with all that food, and she made it a point to pick food off my plate. She would just laugh, tell me she was getting all the food back that I took off her plate as a kid. She would get me, a grown man, to take her to a fabric store, carry all her yarns and fabrics to make blankets and pot holders. What I would not give to do all that every day now. Chad is a good son, spending all that time with Mama.

[@TRS-80Fanclub]

Spend time with Mom. I miss mine inviting me for dinner.

[@BoFinn52]

You sure that’s a “gas” tank? Looks like a shine runner to me. 😆

[@glentucker4250]

I finding myself saying “fine n dandely” quite a bit. Guess you’re rubbing off on me Chad. Great progress. Won’t be now and she’ll be smokin’ the tires. Thank you and God bless!

[@ThisNThatGarage]

I'm sorry to hear that. 😂

[@blaircrocker9845]

If your Mom is like mine she always cooks to much and never thinks you are full until you have a heart attack. 😂😂

[@madmex2k]

Mama would get mad if I didn't eat, or take all the leftovers home with me.

[@7477corvettes]

Chad, momma knows best. 😊

[@JS-kd7jf]

Your becoming so popular,, because of your good old country boy attitude, and simple ways of doing things..... Won't be long before you ZOOM ZOOM DOWN THESE OLD COUNTRY ROADS IN THAT SPORTY-FORTY!! I will keep my eyes peeled hoping to see you out in it somewhere!

[@anthonyblacker8471]

That right there is EXACTLY why I don't throw stuff away. Nice job Chad, lookin' real good!

[@richardbates2367]

This is exactly how i would end up with cars sitting around and then strip and disassemble them for derby cars and i would usually get the engine and transmission and radiator and starter along with the assortment of hardware and bracketry for stripping out the derby cars, and i couldn't tell you how many gm 79-88 full size vans and the 76-79 Chevy 4dr novas for the drivetrain and all of the bolts and hardware and i would also end up buying used vehicles like 70's and 80's gm vehicles for the same parts and i would have enough acquired parts and hardware and bracketry for when a project vehicle show up not if,or id have enough stockpile for trading for the ones i need for the said project i was working on,or end up trading for something else i have the parts and pieces to make it useable with most of what i already had so yeah whether i actually needed the drivetrain at the time i didn't usually turn them down or hardly ever get rid of parts unless i was helping out buddy's or friends and family or get the parts i needed to finish the project vehicle i was messing with.. and several of them have been field vehicles sitting around and junkyard buys and trade deals and i have traded around for it vehicles before to buy ive gotten some interesting scores by dealing with the wrecking yards

[@davidchopperkingdavidchopp6844]

Get a bicycle tube and put it over that flat bar bracket you made for the battery. That will probably protect it if it comes loose and hits the terminals.love the show good job.

[@gispel7058]

Great idea about the tire tube. I suggested someone use a shower cap to protect the winch on his trailer. Re purpose , re purpose re purpose. LOL

[@clintonfranklin915.0]

Hell yeah I'm glad you got a lift now! You videos and a few others helped me alot with healing and recovery when I got out of the hospital from broken leg and knee

[@ThisNThatGarage]

👍

[@frankkirby5763]

I really am liking this channel. You do go work and don’t get upset. I predict your channel is going to grow. Best wishes and Gods blessings.

[@ryandonato8563]

I sure hope it grows he is such a kind hearted person and he is very clever I may not agree with the way he does things sometimes but he gets it done and it's his personality why we watch doesn't matter what he is doing we watch for him

[@Roustabout376]

I'm sorry if I scared you this afternoon when I walked up on you at O'Reilly's I passed you many times driving dude and i figured one of these days I would run into ya.you made my day sorry I couldn't talk to you more i was on the clock thsnks for the picture my older brother with autism love seeing that picture thank you very much

[@ThisNThatGarage]

You didn't bother me at all! Glad to meet you and glad you're brother enjoyed it! 👍

[@davidt9292]

Chad, you going to be hitting the road this summer for meet and greets, with merch ??

[@adamcarfield7201]

Weather change brother I go through it too my left knee I've decided is a female knee lol it changes moods with the weather

[@samuellashbrook6353]

The ole 40 is getting close! Putting the headlights in really made the front end look good

[@shawnlowell4522]

Looking good my friend 🎉..you are appreciated

[@82randyacman]

So awesome that you do not have to crawl around now. Wahoo thanks lift company.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Sure is!

[@simpsonssawshop8149]

Don't forget about a vent for your fuel tank. You could likely use a vented tractor cap on that neck. Also, with the battery mounted in the car like that it would be a good idea to run a sealed battery with an external vent. I love what you do and watch every week.

[@jonathanmiddleton1141]

I believe I’d use the deadwood in that old plum tree for cooking/smoking wood. It’s hard to beat!!

[@paulbujarski8270]

take your handy dandy assistant go out to your nearest pick and pull wrecking yard and they always have great deals on wheels and tires make sure you make a template for the wheel stud size out of a piece of wood with bolts in it before you go out cheap and it won't break the bank from Paul and Charlie the cat keep up the great video's

[@flyingmerkel54]

Hey Chad, I think it would be a really good idea to put some sort of shield by the gas line, to close to the muffler, you're asking for vapor lock or God forbid something worse.

[@stuartphillips430]

All the best Chad.your knees will appreciate that super lift. More please.

[@jmaxim80]

Great work brother, you and I both know the finishing is about 90 percent of the actual work. And you got 2 really important systems taken care of. Fuel and electric, it's at least something you can hang your hat on at the end of the week.

[@donavonboggs3632]

Got to say Chad the old girl is looking awsoome😂 man it's awesome seeing your channel growing couldn't happen to a better person man God bless u and all the peeps reaching out to u ! U r one hell of a good man your pops would be very proud of what u have done with the old 40 he's look8ng down on u with a big old smile

[@oldodger]

That WILDFIRE LIFT is worth it's weight in steel !!!

[@ThisNThatGarage]

It's both handy and dandy!!

[@markbazis6485]

Your daddy is getting happy up there in heaven. The Ole 40 is getting close. He'd sure be excited!

[@ThisNThatGarage]

I believe he would be! 👍

[@normansylvester8098]

That's why you are so focused on the 40. I see now. Your honoring Dad. That is awesome Chad! 👍

[@dannyramey7087]

Hey Chad I've watched all your videos since the first one. Seen you go from pulling rust out of the woods to a new shop with a lift. I'm afraid I'm not going to see the sporty forty on the road. I've got a terminal disease and not much time. You're an inspiration to all. Stay true to yourself and God bless!

[@tatguyfrmohio4470]

😂😂😅😅 You stay laying on the ground or getting on your knees to tighten bolts and nuts and keep forgetting you have a lift now!!!! Love watching n learning new ways of doing things, thank you!!!!!

[@thomascornelius510]

When I first found this channel you were building the go-kart. Now look how far you have come 👍. Great work Chad. I can't wait for the first ride in the 43. ✌️❤️💐.

[@bobbykeyz1263]

First, I'm really starting to get excited. Secondly I think I mentioned before getting yourself a knee brace when working. I could not work without mine.

[@scottmmagby7057]

Hey Mr Chad. Enjoyed another one. You are really getting the olo' sporty forty coming along. But , you just might have to have the olo' doctor look at your knees again. If you have to take a surgery brake I beleive we would all be with you when you got back!! You need to take care of yourself.

[@rickydonahue1586]

Hey buddy just split a piece of hose and wrap it around the post side of your battery hold down and when you bolt it down it'll act as a grip as well as a isolator.😁👍

[@baxojayz]

It's funny how the details are what take the longest to straighten out. Still huge progress! Nice work!

[@normansylvester8098]

I have been absent from watching the channel. Your will it run/drive home videos are where it's at for me. But I get it, you gotta do you. Dont mean to hurt your feelings, just want to be honest. Hope to see something like that again soon 😊

[@jamesmccoy6901]

Thank you buddy see you on the next one.

[@alfredopadilla1407]

This guy is awesome The lock jaw is my favorite I hope he repairs the body on that truck and brings it back to great condition!!!! Please 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@kreigwoodbury6073]

I hope you take lots of videos of driving it after as many videos as you got of building it. We're gonna want to see lots of this car! Your daddy would be proud!! I love this car I love this project

[@corydriver7634]

She’s looking good Sir, can’t wait to see it back on the road. Seems like that lift is making your life too easy. 😂

[@rayashabranner3124]

I am dying to see it with wheels tires running boards and the hood! See you next week.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Me too!

[@jimrobin98]

I enjoy your videos and understand the problem about the knee, as mine is the back! Keep up the videos and take care of that knee! I DO understand how hard it is to do things when that pain comes to visit!

[@talen4941]

Thanks for uploading a video!

[@antonioblocker3292]

Its coming along fine can't wait to see it cruising down the road

[@teresawoodruff1170]

Hey Chad. Another suggestion from this old WVA fella. I went to harbor freight and bought a 2 inch magnet. They come in a 2 pack with a hook on them. I drilled the hook out and bolted it to my ground on my welder. And my plasma cutter. Works fantastic. Just a suggestion

[@stuartfletcher5407]

God Bless You Chad , your sticking with it , Bad Knee and all , And getting closer to a finished build . I want to thank you for the Video , you are overcoming all the gremlins that come up against you and the Coup is sure looking good . Take care , go slow , till the next time , Stuart in Canada ..

[@charleskeziah4810]

There's not enough time in a day to get done what needs to be done. Catch you on the next one.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Sure ain't!

[@rufus7704]

I had a knee problem a long time from years of bouncer work. I did someone research. Turned out to be urea crystals in the joint. (Basically gout). Turns out my liver couldn't detox and clear up anything. I severely reduced red meat for about 2 months. Too much protein. My liver fired back up and my knee is WAY better since. And for gods sake fella git ya some knee pads. Yessir

[@kbschulze]

Hope you paint the floor with rust converter, then paint over that with flat black bare metal paint. Maybe you can get Boom Mat to sponsor you and cover the floor and ceiling with the self adhesive mats. Sound deadening and insulating . Then the pad and carpet 😊 sorry if i said too much. Great project Chad

[@ronaldclark2624]

You might get a vapor lock on the fuel line caused by the exhaust heat. That is an ole-timey problem of yore. Heat shield or re-route may be needed. Love your new lift. Ron PTL USA

[@heatherbrown2761]

I think you got a lot done as well. The power steering and electrical are huge not to mention the fuel system completion. As for your knee, I am right there with you. We are about to have a winter storm here in Colorado and my knee has been letting me know before the NWS did. I am glad it started feeling better for you, really hope the increase in medication will help as well. =)

[@dannybenfield1164]

I can't wait to see the next video of the car going down the road

[@Darylatlarge]

Doing great Chad 👍The gas line above the muffler 🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀😳😳

[@waynedavis7245]

Chad you need to install a winch in front of your lift .that way you don't have to push these cars on the lift . You don't want to hurt your bad knee.

[@deadon4847]

Wrench?

[@nathanielwaldon1534]

A winch I agree😊

[@dalemiller3774]

Her lookers are looking good. Hope your knee gets better 🙏

[@LarryCruson-wf8pu]

Another great video Chad really liked the trouble shooting on the lights and steering brakes and gas line neet job on the wiring battery box just hope your knee stops giving you pain Larry and Sandy

[@danielstrachan8988]

I’m really glad to see the progress coming along on this car😁😁👍👍

[@cowboysfan-rw4rf]

Hey Chad I hope your knee is feeling better. Looking forward to seeing the ol fourtayyy back on the road.

[@charleshundley9805]

Man the ole 40 is really coming together and looking good! Hope your knee gets better soon!

[@JasonHeil-gi2jb]

Your very welcome Chad glad to see you're using the flaring tool they work really nice

[@JuryRigged77]

Now I understand why they put the battery hold down across the middle...instead of long ways... Good video...Hope your knee gets better...sucks getting old .

[@user-nl6oo2wx2e]

Yes it’s coming together, hopefully your knee gets better soon .

[@mackdog3270]

Man, I had to cut a bunch of pieces of angle iron for some crawl space vents and it nearly destroyed me. The shape was like your battery tray, only inverted, so the flange faced outward instead of inward. I had a five gallon bucket filled with offcuts because there are fifty ways you can cut two inch angle iron, but only two of them are right. I welded some expanded steel over the opening and got them powder coated. They turned out pretty good. I can't remember how I did it though. :)

[@richardbates2367]

I learned that holesaw trick installing interior door handle knobs and locks in trailers as in mobile homes... Ive lived in a few of them over the years lol

[@kkhelton4462]

Would love to see more lock Jaw vidoes! I'm bringing a 1978 k10 back to life at the moment, and it's possibly more rusty than lock jaw. I'm about to be driving it around like Fred Flintstone.

[@sharoncauthon6446]

Good job looks good. Next week let's go for a ride.

[@tripod6406]

Cracking job Chad, she really is getting there, keep up the great work. 🇬🇧

[@jasonstarnes3838]

Great work!!! Can't wait to see wheel and tire combo!

[@user-io4hf4fx5c]

Hey Chad , sorry about your knee , I was having a problem with mine for a long time , it would go away and not bother me for a long time And then it would come back with a vengeance , my wife finally talked me into seeing a doctor , he ordered an MRI to my surprise I had a torn meniscus no idea how I got it but it ached like a tooth ache, had a minor outpatient surgery and haven't had an issue since , Love your videos keep up the good work 👍👍

[@1244taylor]

That hoist is really easy to move. What a great addition to your shop. Your cutting example for a new larger hole is really useful.. might have to use it someday..tks..

[@rh5518]

So good to see the lift working out well for you.

[@andrewk6844]

dont like where the outlet of fuel tank is , Just above the Muffler ,What happens whenor if fuel pipe starts leaking

[@byrdsdoityourselfgarage7330]

Howdy Chad! Been waiting for this ❤❤❤

[@taurota1554]

Outstanding and awesome.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

[@teresawoodruff1170]

Chad it makes this old WVA fella happy to see you standing up working. Like I told you in the other video. Mine is mounted outside. But I wish I would have had it 20 years ago. I'd probably move around a whole lot better 😅

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Put a roof over it!

[@stevenewman5585]

The truck is looking great!!, and the lift is awesome, especially the way you can move it around. Hope your knee gets better soon mate. Take care mate and I look forward to your next video. 👍

[@walterrobbins4470]

Very nice flaring tool

[@joecallahan3379]

Gotta love that lift

[@82randyacman]

Hey Chad. 😊

[@ralph5338]

Great video Chad. The lift is a great addition to the shop. Looking forward to seeing the car on the move. 👍

[@Daniels0919]

there was way to much crack in this video! Funny made me laugh after a long day at work.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

😂🤣

[@davidnelson95]

You are blessed that your mother can cook and do for herself my mother can't cook me a meal anymore but I love her and glad she is still here. Hope you get to feeling better soon

[@TheCrackerBox]

Thanks for another , Brother !

[@johnruppe1699]

Strong work

[@randyriggs5463]

Car is coming out pretty good Looks like you need to put a piece of rubber sleeve on your fuel line going to the fuel pump. Look like it is rubbing on the frame. Don't want a leak while you are driving! Coming along!

[@joeandmichelle7375]

Right on Chad!! You're winning!!

[@daleh645]

“Every step you take is one step closer to completing your journey.” Big D, circa 2024! 😎 Happy to see the lift is working for you but sorry to hear your knee is acting up again. Can’t wait to see you ripping down the road in your rat rod! 👍

[@markc5593]

That righteous sound!

[@madmex2k]

Nice work! I figure those drums are about ready for the scrap yard. That battery holder, I would take a hose or tube and put the metal bracket inside to insulate it, or just move the battery hold down posts a 1/4 or 1/2 inch further away from the battery posts. They got that rubber stuff you can dip the handles of your tools in to, maybe dip the hold down bracket. Just some idee-ers. I love this old car, surely some old collecter has some drums in a junk pile somewhere. Prolly want to rob your wallet though, if they are that hard to find.

[@k-dawg3893]

Coming along nicely! Good work This N That!

[@user-cx5ez3uu6i]

thank you for the hole saw info ,cant believe how sometimes so of us over think things, welp i have cobwebs upstairs anyway LOL

[@user-sb1rj1dw9e]

Pushing car was maybe what hurt your knee you could make a bracket with flush mounted anchor bolts to the floor. One for each side of garage with a small boat winch (cheapest) to tow the cars onto the lift. Use a small snatch block like pulley to double your pulling strength.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Got one to tie to a back wall pole.

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Chad :) got lots done for sure and happy hear mom doing better cooking up meal was nice of her to ! Looking forward more videos too soon watch on 1940 Chevrolet Coupe car! Yes agree on put heat sheild over fuel line underneath car so won't have fire and be safe !

[@surindersandhi3924]

Hi My Friend Very Very Good Job ❤❤❤❤❤

[@roberthocking9138]

Well done, more progress, take care of that knee

Glad you got things working. Great job

[@livinglikarockstar]

Good job! Developed same knee pain bout year ago, osteoarthritis in my left knee from an old injury when young. that green spiky leafy plant cream max potency found online seems to work as good as anything non prescription for the pain. Keep onnn Truck'n!

[@timmybob4871]

Great video Chad. Big congrats on 75K!

[@sanjalong6628]

Chad... .this is Carl from Arizona. Been watching your videos....really enjoy them. I noticed the other day you said your knee was bothering you again, I'm pretty sure it's from pushing your car on the ramp. That puts a lot of pressure on your knees. Again.....really enjoy your videos...keep up the good work
