Scrapping The 1953 Chevy Kustom. Sad Ending For The Chicken Truck. What Went Wrong?

[@thebobhollyband]

I would rather watch this any day over the garbage that's on tv.

[@larrymarkee8277]

It’s a miracle, the Chicken Truck project will proceed.

[@BruceBusby]

I too use classical music when concealing my colorful language! Well done

[@erichutchins2113]

If the forklift restoration doesn't put your channel on the map, more of that truck cab square dancing will definitely do it! Thanks as always.

[@robm1392]

Kyle admirably makes up for "not knowing what he's doing" with a huge amount of skill, dedication and hard work.

[@johnclauser7392]

The only KZbin channel where I learn about welding and they play classical music. Please don't change a thing. Also keep showing the cats. We love the cats and keep dancing around the shop too. I liked your dancing

[@brettm754]

The only channel where I let the ads play as a courtesy to a fellow SK resident.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thanks! I appreciate that!

[@t16205]

Lol! I havent seen an ad in 10+ years. Have you not heard about adblock??

[@volvoproblems3567]

I like how the snow outside makes it look like this was filmed in the dead of winter. For the uninitiated, welcome to two days of snow in a Saskatchewan March.

[@edwardkosol8891]

One good thing about two feet of snow is you can just pitch large car parts out in the yard and the neighbors don't know till spring.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Haha. My thoughts exactly!

[@4eyefoxbodyfanclub625]

Very good Kyle🤠👍

[@lancegates9159]

I love the witticism and dripping sarcasm, it’s amusingly refreshing compared with the out right lies we put up with from our fearless leaders and other people who like to blow smoke up our posteriors . Keep up the great work !! Hats off to your evil genius, cheers 🎉

[@cedley1969]

I like the classical music soundtrack, not underestimating your audience.

[@glennnickerson8438]

Sarcasm and classical music--it's a winning combination!

[@zajacmotorsports5910]

This channel is going to be so Forked. Can't wait!

[@andrewreece3861]

The Bad Chad at the end…. Priceless

[@rogerpence]

I have my heart and soul invested in this project. I will jump off the roof if you stop now!

[@drivewayshop]

I think instead of raising the roof you should dig a secret underground garage .. Oh wait, that's Furze... Carry on! Should be an epic project

[@Odawg3709]

You don’t need click bait for your loyal viewers! I knew you were joking. Keep on keeping on!

[@miguelsalo48]

Now that was fun...😮 🤙🤠👍

[@T3glider]

Hey wait a minute … don’t shift any of the responsibility for this train wreck to us. We’re only here because, as the cliché says, we can’t look away!

[@TommyBradham]

Kyle is in the acceptance phase of failure. We are all still in disbelief but anger is coming.

[@phatdaddy1955]

Hahaha!

[@shedbythetracks]

I watched this episode at my sons house on a home theater screen... he also has an official sized popcorn machine... I've watched all your shows, and I must say.... this time...the popcorn was excellent. I'm also looking forward to the fork-lift restoration. I'm assuming you will be chopping the top and applying stick-on chrome to the bumpers. As always, I want to compliment Trixy Tripod for her awesome camera work on your channel. Your loyal viewer in a shed....

[@glennnickerson8438]

Watching on a big screen allows one to see the "nuances" of fine metal work and spontaneous combustion!😆

[@shedbythetracks]

😆😆@@glennnickerson8438

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Glad to hear you enjoyed the popcorn. Great news; Canadian Tire just announced they will be sponsoring the forklift build, so I won't even have to pay for all the stick on chrome this time!

[@shedbythetracks]

Awesome!@@CarterAutoRestyling

[@JustinBlackfaceTrudeau]

@@shedbythetracks haha , I used to hang around Bad Chad before I realized what he’s really like , you have see him putting a tube of hardener in a gallon of mud and shaking it up on his paint shaker 🤣🤣🤣 quality metalwork!

[@joewolf4483]

Made fast work of that ... now that's a real chopped truck ... another great video Kyle ...

[@gregorypoole5648]

Aha, Kyle, there's more than one way to scrape a truck! Whatever the outcome is on your current Kustom project, I know you will persevere...this truck is going to turn out amazing.

[@jorgefernandez-mv8hu]

OMG! All that mirth and merryment! Dancing with a truck cab! Now a forklift collab! I have to sit down, my heart is fluttering. Too much excitement!

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

I learned two very important things watching this episode. 1) Kyle knows slightly more than he lets on about metal work 2) Fiber does not help you poop.

[@morgansword]

You guys have to be excellent friends to even consider a forklift build. Its quite tired and has many miles left as is but then who knows what it means to you.. a higher building means a lift for you should your finances improve or even wildfire might sponsor a lift. Yeah I fed into this as usual. I honestly do hurt some of those comments of "I quit" or just scrap it and forget it. Your a eccentric person who seems to gather some relief from the haters by hurting the ones who truly do care about you. Of course I am to dang broke to support your channel as I do believe I used to. I just don't remember too much anymore. My health has gone down again.... I ask god regularly when will it end

[@davidbeaumont4455]

I saw the title. Assumed the exact opposite and said to myself. "Self" this looks like fun! 😂😊

[@Mikefngarage]

that frame was purely SWISS CHEEZE

[@ezekielmoorejr3145]

I found it oddly satisfying watching you cut up that frame, when I was a youngster I got run over by a 53 Chevy truck in Michigan where I grew up and had to go through years of rehab. In a small way it was pay back time!

[@albarrett1566]

I’m so happy that this truck is coming together

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Hi Dean! Thanks for following along on this project. I'll keep picking away at it and hopefully, I can make some good progress this year.

[@fubarmodelyard1392]

Speaking of coldwarmotors, Myles has a 60 Pontiac with a good running six that he talks about replacing with a v8. Just a thought. I used to watch those shows with all the forced drama and tool tossing and fake deadlines. Thankfully you and Scott fixed all that

[@David_Walker16-3-51]

I was working on a long, smart arse comment but when it comes down to it, I love what you do and I love the music you choose to accompany it. You appreciate those who make space in their day to day routines to watch your output, for me (and probably lots of others) day to day routines are what I use to fill in the spaces between your brilliant postings. Thank you.

[@RichardBerry-v5i]

I love the video of you working on the old girl

[@johnburch6927]

It may not be a regular occurrence but man you get in a groove and come out the next day astounded. Like the shoemakers elves.

[@gymshoe8862]

You have a way of making the custom car game look so glamorous! Make those lazy kitties lend a hand!

[@jerrywesterfield5636]

Wish I could see the kitties watch Kyle spinning the cab around in circles.

[@narrowgaugegreg]

That was some serious restyling there...

[@Mikefngarage]

snow climates are dryer. A lot of people think it is damp. but it is dry. That is why it feels so much colder. the air is so thin it goes right though your clothes. My wifes family from Toronto calls it damp cold. I am like NOPE......I was in the Midwest it was 36 degrees Fahrenheit and snowing.....that was damp. All I needed was a sweatshirt didnt even feel cold to me.

[@farmerpete5936]

You had me going with the first couple minutes of the video. In my head I was screaming "NNNNOOOOO". Then you calmed me down with your just kidding. As usual, another great video. Can't wait to see more on the chicken truck. Going to be nice seeing you do the forklift resto. Watch Cold War Motors too. Have a great week.

[@countswing284]

Forklift collab and stovebolt tear down gonna be epic! Custom chicken truck legend just keeps growing. Cheers! 😎👍🛻🏁🏁🐔🐓🥚

[@bluesman6955]

I enjoyed watching you use the Chevy wrench (aka BFH) to remove the rear springs. My dad always said "Don't force it, use a bigger hammer!"

[@TrimeshSZ]

"If the use of force does not yield the desired result, more force should be applied".

[@kenclark8845]

I enjoy watching a dismantling ! I once disassembled two Willy's trucks and one Jeep wagon to make one Willys truck. Much "fun". Two trips with car trailer to get rid of scrap. People like to criticize when you scrap those old frames and such. Sometimes those old junkers need scraped !! I can't believe that old engine turned ! If that block is savable that will do someone some good .

[@dannypeter6565]

DAMN MUNG!! Having dropped my tools a million times I have tried staring at them with hopes that they may levitate back up into the cab. No luck yet. Cheers

[@Chevypowered5766]

Great video Kyle, you have to build it up so far then tear it apart to start rebuilding it again. That sounds like so much fun probably more fun than watching the snow melt. It will definitely be worth all the effort and hard work when the truck is finished. Later

[@Ford360CID]

you gave it the ole college try..some guy's wouldn't get as far as you did..you gained valuable on hands training and a learning as you go along so this was educational and entertaining to boot!! for all watching,enjoy your weekend.

[@ronpat13]

I really wish Scott good luck with his forklift jouney. Sorry but it had to be said "May the fock be with you". I know I'm not the only one who thought of that. I enjoyed watching the work on the engine, quite interesting. Glad you're sticking with the project; I'm feeling an investment in it and really want to see how it turns out. Cheers!

[@christianheidt5733]

Thanks to you Kyle! Keep up the great work, fixing things, educating & entertaining us, much appreciated!!!

[@rationalguy2744]

Today, my one man drum line was getting in the groove and the panel had become, magically, the right shape. I thought of your show and burst out laughing, much to my neighbor's surprise and my own recognition of how inappropriate I was being.

[@doctorhugocat]

Thanks for the video! Yes I'd like to see a teardown of the old motor if possible.

[@warchildcustomcreations]

I originally came for the metal working content but I stayed for the sarcasm.

[@southsideronnie]

All set for the next phase! Well done Kyle!!

[@johnwesner3935]

Hey Kyle, I'm a mechanic by trade who through some flaw in my decision making paradigm, decided to attempt body repair on old junk!😢 Thanks to you and Fitzee I've been able to make some progress!😊 Because I somewhat know what I'm doing I always start on the chassis and drive line. Once I have a chassis that can move under it's own power I start on the body work. Thanks for the help!😊

[@robames1293]

That old engine--- a really efficient paper weight for your desk, or a talking point boat anchor or an unusual coffee table

[@awakeariseandwatch5976]

love the channel Kyle you are to funny. God bless you

[@nicolasstanley1392]

I’ve certainly been surprised a time or two walking back into the garage after late night thrashing. Usually there’s a pile of beer cans too

[@jimhickey2276]

I always recommend disassembly for all my projects. It makes disposal easier and can be done in small amounts weekly in my regular trash can, thereby avoiding dealing with the hassles of listing them for sale and all that goes with that. For fellas like myself who can't seem to stop dragging every pile of crap I find home, my wife finds it an effective way to handle the overflow. You putting yours back together in better shape than what you started with is another approach I hadn't considered.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Haha I like the way you think

[@beatglauser9444]

You are lucky with the climate being dry. Where I live bare metal tends to get rusty within 24 hours. so I often blow some low cost spray paint on fenders and such in order to prevent it getting rusty. I even experienced that my Arizona desert car started to have the cracked paint lifting and rust starting underneath. And that happened in a barn under a roof and not outside.

[@joeharrington595]

Sorry it took so long for me to respond, I couldn't type with my death grip on my pitchfork! LOL I enjoy your humor. The truck looks so good sized down, chopped and sectioned. Keep up the great work

[@robertshemory3541]

Looking forward to seeing more truck fun.😎✌️👍 cheers

[@deaconblue949]

Hi Kyle! I had a dream that you traded the engine to Scott in return for spraying the truck and as a joke he matched the yellow paint! Cheers everyone!

[@adubbelde1]

I live in a dry climate as well. My 37 has a been in bare metal for the firewall and floorboards for a couple of years and no flash rust

[@gregboppel2511]

❤❤❤....Luvv...the commentary...& the. Butchery...😆😆

[@BigBoxDodge2020]

I would like to see engine teardown and analysis and I think your Cats need to know about the bad choices you've made.

[@gregorykolanek6820]

The taper on each end made it easier to remove the shackle plates, thusly aiding to service trans / clutch !

[@fredshaw8323]

Good Job...A👍

[@bobhalstead1879]

You should do kitty calanders with your cars

[@charleykeenan6171]

"Body and paint to make her what she ain't.." Best car guy quote EVER 😂 Enjoying the build immensely!

[@bowens2773]

fantastic.

[@adubbelde1]

My dad told me that my uncle maintained the 37. When I pulled the shackles apart the pins were about 70% gone. They'd never seen grease as had the door checks.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Yeah I think most folks forgot to grease them!

[@paulhedman7387]

This epic saga took me almost over the edge with the frame removal under the cab scene, it was a real fingernail chewer. It was nice that you had some cool cat content at the end of the show to calm my nerves. Otherwise I'd most likely have a hard time sleeping tonight. Thanks for another quality update on your life as a very adequate, likely psychotic, customizer of basic transportation contraptions.

[@xlmi7021]

Yes...breathtaking content!

[@tomellis5462]

The cab of the chicken truck rolls so nice on that cart I was thinking you could probably push it through the super market. It would make for a really stylish grocery bin. ; )

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Haha great idea!

[@mcm9329]

I think they drove the truck in a bath filled with yellow paint..I laughed when I saw it around the gearbox.

[@Poo-Peater]

I went in to order the wooden break line hold downs and the break removal tool, but I couldn't find them in the merch store

[@robertstewart7744]

great show.

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thanks!

[@nicksnarski5973]

The stove bolt I think is a good rebuildable core for sure worth something.

[@billstewart5421]

You’re doing GREAT!!!! It’s coming out beautiful!!!!

[@ronaldfarmer1208]

Lots of fun , looking good !

[@Must-StanginGarage]

Its about time you scraped that old eyesore oh your not scraping it, well it's s an awesome job like what you're doing keep it up 😂😂😂

[@errolpoxleitner9586]

Good job Kyle.

[@jn1ty]

I'd say you got a wee bit of snow outside your door. What no snowman?

[@johnfederkeil9211]

Good video Kyle!

[@erikjakobsson4622]

36:17 regarding safety. If you know why that what you are doing is dangerous, it is not as dangerus any more. Or, if you know why the rules are in place, you are allowed to break them! Safety 3:rd! Great work as usual! Very inspiring!

[@jamesbergeron8356]

Kyle, it took me a few videos to understand your sense of humor. You are pretty hilarious now that I know you better.

[@richardmead9225]

My 1962 Willys Pickup had that style leaf spring hanger, with zerks.

[@chrispiazza7487]

Excellent! Thanks Kyle and Scott!

[@kevind5508]

You must be more North in saskatchewan. I'm in the south east and we have very little snow lol

[@5150Magic]

I can't believe how much snow you still have up there, wow! The cats are pretty cool too! I also took your advice on the Hobart and think it will be an awesome addition to the Tom-foolery around here. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@adubbelde1]

I have a 37 Chev PU and it has a rust free frame. The only rust, other than surface rust on bar metal. The cab had 2 spots of rust where the floor meets the back of the cab. It wasn't rusted through yet, but on it's way.

[@rogerhadley2763]

come kyle don't give up you got it

[@sbf_fox2434]

I liked your QJet video. Your bodywork videos are fun to watch, but so are your mechanical videos. I never knew about the spring shackle bushing you showed us. I would like to see the tear down video on the stovebolt.

[@patrickchristie82]

Still loving it. Probably less work to use the truck frame that fits, but who knows, maybe the Pontiac is the answer

[@paulmcnair8106]

Down here in sunny South Carolina.... EVERYTHING flash rusts! You are absolutely correct in that they never go back together as easily as they come apart lol. God bless.

[@lenscap8925]

Looks like Spring can't come soon enough for the cats...or you. Fantastic sawzall action, and a can of MotorMedic will have that engine purring, you even have a standard to judge the purring by!

[@RichardBerry-v5i]

Great job looks great 👍 lots of work

[@joeg7755]

I really hope that 6 cyl is a good core. I love diesels and V8's but also love these under appreciated 6 cyl gas engines. They run so smooth, develop very decent torque and actually get great fuel mileage! Would be nice to see installed back in this build in all its glory.

[@alcyr5655]

The snowball effect. Back in the early 80's, supposed to be a quick freshen up on beaten down hard '57 D-100. My first vehicle. '69 Fury for a parts car. What could go wrong? Middle of using the tired drive train, we thought lets up grade to IFS. That was the easy part, '69 fury front clip slid over the outside of the original frame rails. But when we went to install the cab, realized that the engine sat back a lot further, and a wider track width. A good part of the firewall had to be cut out, torsion bars cranked up for tire clearance, I wanted to chop the top, but with the wrap around rear window, it was not feasible. Would I do it again, NEVER. Over 40 yrs. later still have her. Going back through her. Ditched the idea of Dakota frame swap, just clean up what we did in a small garage. And I mean it was beat- Sask. DNR truck, 2 of my uncles used it for a farm truck, my late father had it for a shop truck.

[@danbolton3180]

Our rust rusts living near the Salish Sea across from Victoria B.C.

[@darrelharvey1876]

Nice paint job.. I'm just commenting to support the channel.. lol

[@TommyBradham]

You should have Scott put another rusty old truck on the forklift if he's coming anyway. No need to dead head all the to your house.

[@pjsratrods8936]

I cut up my 1989 Ram50 (Mighty Max) for a similar reason. The scale master at the scrap yard asked when he saw it come in on the trailer all torch cut into sections "What Happened to your Truck" Since I am a large original Gone in 60 Seconds fan I promptly replied. "You know those parking lot attendants." That truck died to give another one life. So all was right in the end.

[@johnkranyics281]

Great job Kyle, I👍👍🇨🇦

[@valuepack2]

I would give my first born to see Scott drive that forklift from Alberta.
