You have the best show on TV ,very informative and I like your attitude

Published Aug 2, 2019. Recorded before people had flat screen TVs....

[@Andy1416]

This is epic as hell, thanks for uploading it. My VHS tape that this was on, got destroyed.

[@johnc.wunscheljr2873]

Great job Stacey. I have been building my 57 chevy stepside for the last five years. I have had this truck since I was 5yr old and it took 2 thumbs to open the door and I had to make the motor sound myself. It had 9000 org miles on it and sit under a walnut tree for 13 years. In 1970 I was 11 my grand father handed me the keys and the title to it. 5 yrs ago took it apart sand blasted & powder primed drove to LA and picked up my 4 link chassis from Total cost involved . I built a 383 stroker & 700r4 and primed & blocked and today painted it Root beer candy with 9 pearls in it . I hope to finish next mount. So I know how much work it took . Perhaps I will send you a photo upon completion. J>-W-> PS I watched Gears for years. So I"m a fan of your shows Thanks.

[@NWI_Steel]

These are awesome! We need the crazy horse payoff next!

[@martinneps9387]

It is something how everybody says leave a comment down bolo and we will get back to you thank you for the showing of this truck that's all I could say I would love a pint of this Paint color thank you

[@Dieselprescott]

Man do I miss watching these shows on Saturday mornings. Most weekends I watched them Saturday and again on Sunday! Trucks being my favorite

[@bryanphipps9131]

Awesome build back in the day!

[@COPRZ28]

This color Copperhead inspired the build of my 1980 Camaro Z28 called COPRZ28!

Stacey is the man!

[@tacianogentil8586]

love the truck i remember when it was built

[@angelo24610]

Copperhead is bad ass💯

[@kalijasin]

That’s a really nice truck 😍

[@WhiskeyDale]

THAT , is how you build a Chevy truck. Nice job.

[@tallpaul9475]

Rain-x or just don't drive in the rain? I didn't see the chrome windshield wiper arms on it. I like the price of gas, under $2 a gallon!

[@robertmiller5735]

Will not pass inspection without the wipers.

[@chevydyall7619]

In Australia we pay $1.60 a litre. Can't believe you yanks winge about fuel prices. Especially considering ours is amongst the cheapest round the eorld

[@tallpaul9475]

@@chevydyall7619 i can't believe you went off of the topic in this conversation.

[@Wolfstanus]

Thats because we produce alot of oil that we sell to other countries. We have also caught oil companies artificially raising prices through the years and the lower them to normal

[@GM.572]

Wolfstanus U mean BUY a lot of oil from us 😁🇸🇦

[@w.a.mproductionsinc9340]

who watched it for him playing that guitar as well as the truck !!!!

[@kellyadams3743]

Stacey is so fkn cool!!

[@delholford987]

Seatbelts might be a useful addition.

[@benische]

No wonder tv is dying. This is the second total recap episode of the last three shows.

[@josedominguez2021]

Great!!

[@junglejonny1000]

I wonder how different this would be with an all wheel drive setup.

[@anthonyp1517]

Great job, Question I don't see a seat belt on it, is this the way is suppose to be ?

Hi I love the colour of the truck what is the ppg paint code ?

What happened to the end of the episode, they cut some out.

"The Frame and the Chassis" wow..

[@robertmiller5735]

can buy the frame now aftermarket, still can't get new cab.

Don’t like outside mirrors:(

Much slower then I thought it would be

[@northeastscoundhandcarsand2180]

Everything Is Just Side Mirror Is Small Comparing With Truck....

[@mr.s7059]

Wow back when gas was cheap

[@jaimesaenz221]

It was $1.89. It's $2.27 at my local corner store.

[@St.Maurice]

Would've loved to have seen the nitrous used.

[@railfanpat1719]

You wouldn’t be able to drive it lol. 300+ feet and he had to back out of it to hook up. That truck is nothing but motor lol

[@St.Maurice]

Patrick Jones True, but still.

[@scottsmith31]

The only disappointment on this truck is the exhaust. It honestly sounds awful

[@kenjsr1]

You forgot that when you got back you had 4 bald tires and a wasted engine. 😠

[@junglejonny1000]

They crushed this truck right? I think that is why he left the show.

[@hawkdsl]

No it was auctioned off. search "copperhead returned" to see it today.

[@junglejonny1000]

@@hawkdsl I'm glad. I thought I remembered him explaining on his new show Gearz that he had left Trucks because they crushed all of the vehicles he did for insurance reasons. I am glad I am wrong.

[@hawkdsl]

@@junglejonny1000 Yep! If I recall, all of the manufacture donated cars were diffidently crushed. I think they had the option of selling or buying the cars the show bought in the open market. I know allot of parts make it to E-bay from some of the shows.

[@codycall6513]

Beautiful. Remember watching this on sundays back during highschool

[@85stangster]

The man, the myth, the legend. Nobody cares that he had two first names. The king of ' drive it like you stole it'. With a truck that is timeless. He always has a great message and does awesome work. I'm glad to see these shows come back around. From playing guitar with Theodore Nugget, to building badass rides. This has always been one of my favorite shows. And he stress tested all of his builds with a thrashing that is legendary. Thanks Stacey, it's been a privilege to have watched you sir.

[@ImTheJoker4u]

You know he has a new show called Gearz

[@sinistersilverado8189]

#GEARZNATION

[@clarktm1275]

This truck is in the top 3 of most favorite builds Stacy David has done!!

[@ImTheJoker4u]

This, SGT Rock, and the old Willis Jeep he build for his old man.

[@w9gb]

I thought this was the best Stacey David build (the color was picked up my auto mfg.), and achievable by many garage builders.

[@Dr_Xyzt]

If it weren't this show, I'd have never gone to engineering school, nor would I have ever built a hot rod. Thank you, PowerNation, for keeping these videos alive!

[@PrettyChrome]

This is the best payoff episode, thanks for putting these online!

[@RobertL78]

Agreed, the burnout for distance was very impressive and still is.

[@PrettyChrome]

Robert L it was the segment that first put the very idea of a burnout for distance into my head

[@cbo6034]

I watched this around 12-14 years ago.👍👍

[@jonnygg6594]

I watched on TNN. I was about 18 years old. I never did catch this episode though. Cool to see it running. Wonder where the truck is at now?

Yeah bullshit.

That 300+ foot burnout has been deeply engrained in my memory since I was a kid, when this episode first aired!

[@Savage_Lado]

Always remembered that about this episode. Siiick!

[@railfanpat1719]

I could only imagine what would happen if he hit the NOS

[@marcustrue1213]

Me too, watched every Saturday morning !!!! Forget the cartoons I was in middle school this man is legendary

[@steveaustin5897]

Volume sucks. Commercials blast the ears.

[@rg1482876]

Just saw the gas prices. 1.79. I miss that lol. Used to love this show

[@dannywilsher4165]

I built a 67 very similar to this one back in the early 80's. It is almost like he copied mine but he went much further and nicer than mine. I had a 427 big block with turbo 400 but no overdrive. Exactly the same color and I had three darker brown stripes going up across the doors following the slant of the front of the door and across the top. Part of the stripes were on the back of the cab just above the window and part of them were on top. I doubt if mine would run as fast as this one, but it was plenty mean!!!

[@amarti23]

Stacey David just made me believe 💪 the end of the video was the best pep talk 🏆

[@sadboycali]

I finally got my 1972 gmc pickup and I'm already eagered to work on it. I've watched this twice already just day dreaming the day I finish my project

[@daviddntait]

You ever start working on your '72?

[@kennethohnemus3192]

I can only think of one problem with this beauty.... staying off the gas pedal 💨💨💨💨💨

[@jameseads2713]

He said if you pull up next to me you better be ready to run it😂 I’d have to pass

[@haydenbriggs]

The color is really nice and a beautiful work of art! However, I think a Carolina Blue color would've been better but that's just me!

[@clayleto1719]

I was always so bummed that he wouldn't do an actual 1/4 mile pass.

[@andrewsommers8298]

I miss TNN. Look at those gas prices.

[@basshead.]

salaries were lower too

[@LTXwooshie]

Just had to point out gas is $1.24 a gallon by me right now.

How i wish i have that kind of beautiful car here in the philippines

I raced cars and flew airplanes, I know the value of a goof 4 point harness. LOL

[@JayLang7]

This was about 2005 I believe

[@0Heeroyuy01]

2001 was when the first episode aired if i remember correctly

[@BornRandy62]

I remember the episode where they showed past projects and what became of them. stripped of all the go-fast parts and fancy whell and rubber and sitting on some we finance anybody lots. then they showed the follow on projects at the crusher. drive in the lot shiney copper paint and watch as it turns into a cube of scrap metal.

[@robertmiller5735]

broke my heart.

[@andrewsommers8298]

I almost cried

[@shawnmiller7809]

Randy J big blaze has its power train swapped out for a rock crawler and ended up on that lot. Willets Jeep went to his dad... Recent episode of Gearz, they found the current owner of Copperhead...

[@hawkdsl]

True for some, but CH was auctioned off.. can't remember if it was for a charity or not.. but like Shawn Miller said, Copperhead is still out there. I just hope they understand that they have the very first 572. Truck is worth serious money.

[@ericmcginnis9413]

Question for ya? With you running a brave engine mixed with all the nitrous I was wondering if the ring gap was spaced out wider? Did you regap the rings or request them at a certain spec! I guess I just worry! But for that matter I then wonder about the plugs too!

[@jeffjankiewicz5100]

No normal person has the budget to build something like this. Awesome build, but I could never afford to build it. Sponsors help with freebies. No sponsors in my backyard.

[@0Heeroyuy01]

you missed the whole point of this build. the point was you can build something like this. small block 350 that was rebuild from pretty much any chevy car/truck so long as the block isn't cracked. the bed sided on this truck are 510.00 a peace so about 1,100 counting tax and shipping that is if youre starting like he did cab and a frame. im currently working on a 73 el camino and im in about 1,200 for new breaks,floors pans,basic maintenance, and will probably spend about another 6K in it before im done. as the old saying goes can't never could. if you have a job sit the fuck down look at what your paying out and find a way to shrink what is going out,if you have credit card dept you need to destroy your credit card and get your dept down before anything else,learn to save like i have and you can build something like this.

[@kc2giw]

15:30

[@dwp139]

Only request I have now is since Copperhead's episodes have home back, it's time to do the other big project when it was Stacey as the host...Crazy Horse. A Bronco reminds me of my pap and gram, since they always loved their old Bronco.

[@ericmcginnis9413]

Stacy said in one episode that you could start from a cab a frame and a title and build a complete truck but the grill is one piece you will have a hard time getting! Cool truck though!

[@casonleath4007]

Truck's so slow, and 1080p my ass lol

[@MarkMeadows90]

Stacey revealed that there was a spot on the truck on the A pillar where a camera man hit the paint while filming a segment. It was a little doozied up scratch, but they touched up the area where the camera man hit. It's on the Return of Copperhead Episode of GearZ.

[@seeksource]

What brand of ECU did you use? What brand was the wiring harness? Was it custom, or a kit?

[@thomasallen3818]

Copperhead would be my dream truck. Makes me miss the hell out of my ‘70, Cheyenne Super 1/2 ton.

[@martinneps9387]

Only thing a badd about this copper paint it is so so expensive that's where My problem is with doing this truck I cannot afford to copper paint That's what's holding me up

[@goodfellasinc.5648]

Bullshit i Built my 67 twin TURBOS candy paint frame work in 2 month's but he's right an Average builder gonna take 4 to 6 years the reason why I got mine done so quickly and all my builds I work on them 6 hours after 12 hour days of work everyday even on Sunday I was raised With the best dad and Uncle you could ask for They are professionally engine and car buildersMaybe that Has something to be with it

[@bryancoats5328]

That burnout launch still gives me chills

[@jimbaldridge9392]

Stacey was ahead of the game on doing a C10. And Copperhead didn't disappoint, I don't care for the "power block" shows, now after Stacy left and Joe and lou, it just doesn't entertain me anymore. Sure, the new hosts are great talented mechanics, but I think the people who run the show made some bad decisions with letting people go who really needed to stay.. Just my opinion on it 😉 Cheers to everyone 🍺🍺😎

[@jamestally7184]

My project is going on 35 years but I’m not giving up, and a lot of it is due to Stacey David and ‘Trucks’ We miss you brother!!

[@DerekFromBK]

This was when car shows were car shows. No nonsense! No fake drama! No ex High School nerd with a long beard and thick rimmed glasses and tattoos running around the shop doing dumb sh*t! All useful information that we can use in our own builds! One host, not competing for attention and fame with the other bearded tattoo idiots on the show to see who is the funniest! This latest generation is all about "me" in everything that they do. KZbin is the greatest because you can still find gems like this... Made before the reality TV generation took over car shows.

[@tootall5559]

really kind of worthless. Bed too nice to haul anything, Way too much power, it won't hook up... all that power is wasted. Why even bother with the nitrous when you can't hook it up without it? Too thirsty to drive a lot... cool to look at, that's about it. Not practical at all. Way over done. Why not spend the money and time building something useful?

[@Andy-cu2jv_TVMAN]

La camioneta esta chulisima lo que no me gusta es el queme de llantas y el castigo al motor ,es maltrato,estoy trabajando en la mi que es una chevy cheyenne 82 la voy a dejar como chingaso,pero yo estoy haciendo solo el trabajo a mi gusto y veo que esta quedando muy bien arregladita.
