The Weekend E21: Choppin a MiniTruck

During my trip to the 831 and I made a stop at Padilla Custom Design were they were getting ready to chop the top off a mini truck. I figured I'd hang around a little long and watch the process.

Man, we had a lot of fun building these and playing with them back in the 80's.

[@iyamwhite3931]

7 minds are far better than 1. Good work guys! No arguing,just believing each other.

[@HOGSIDESJTV14BOSSHOGRECORDS]

Mazdas make the best mini trucks.cleaner lines and looks!

[@bobbycowper2915]

that's damn sure your opinion. my opinion is NISSAN hardbody make the best lowrider mini.

[@RFJersey]

Nissan 720 is the all time favorite. But I like them all.

Man miss the old days hanging with the home boyz working on our vehicles. Now 51 y.o. and everyone turned cherry or like i was told grew up and out of the hobby/sport. Not me still driving my 93 nissan & 77 caddy looking for our next project teaching the kids the way we did it back in the days. Not like now everyone inside watching tv or on their cell phones playing games, shopping or watching KZbin.

I agree 100% still got my 88 b2200 that I am now restoring by the way it got a hard top convertible a little rust here and there but it will be back on road soon still runs.

the way your boy tossed his 'tools' in the bed then proceeded to scratch a WAVY cut line makes me know this is a channel to BLOCK 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

[@tommybomber]

Thanks for making this video! I'm going to be doing this to a less popular truck. Dodge Dakota. This gave me pointers and a loose guide!

[@hanchohancho6948]

Padilla custom designs out of castroville ca they do great work!! Great video!!

[@salsa1620]

Clean cutting

[@erickcontreras637]

Great job guys!!! Wondering from where you guys got the seals kits , I been looking for one before cutting a targa top, thanks

[@jimbossemi-customs3129]

Great work, would love to do to my 85 Ranger, but already have so many things I'm doing to it. And off topic, if anyone busts your chops over the Harbor Freight grinder, they have never owned one. I have had 3 of them for many years and beat them to death and they still go strong. Best 18 bucks I think I ever spent. At that price, I have 3 so I never have to switch wheels.

[@mathewmaldonado3570]

Nice work 💯

[@durkashurpala]

Nothing worse then explaining to someone how you're going to the job they came to you to do cuz they cant.

[@mikedavis420]

Nice work i need my nissan done

[@CORYNBA1]

No video of you finishing it?

[@cre8iveone699]

Exactly?

[@Twotonz]

I went to Salinas to get some tires for my Cadillac. While I was in the area, I swung by Padilla Custom. Just to see what they were up to and I captured this. This wasn’t a planned video or anything. So I just captured what they did to it in that moment.

[@nrgrandits2046]

Where’s part.2

[@Twotonz]

There’s no part two. I filmed this because I was in their town and randomly popped in on the homies shop

[@carlitosrios2118]

I want to see the finish product what we looking like??

[@barbarahernandez6264]

Where's the update

[@edvang7397]

What the song at end I like it

[@Twotonz]

It’s called “Lay It Down”

[@D805YUNGBOSS]

@@Twotonz when is the rest of the video coming??

[@Twotonz]

Sorry. This wasn’t a planned video or anything like that. I was just in the area that day and I popped in and this is what I captured.

[@chrstiano2497]

Can this be done on a ext cab chevy s10...

[@ChefJon68]

I have seen one done on a square body s 10 back in the late 80s. They used a standard cab kit and modified it. If memory serves they bought a sheet of ABS and heated it to mold to the area between the door and back cab.

[@chrstiano2497]

@@ChefJon68 thanks for response man. I'm looking forward to doing this to my s10 as winter approaches

[@bugzbunny8611]

Do you know the owners @ on social medias ??

[@Twotonz]

I don’t know who the truck owner is , all I can tell you is that the shop is @padillacustomdesign on Instagram

[@NoiseBoysGarage]

Yo bro 😎 I have a 6 wheeler with a chop top 🔝 the bed is extended with 4 wheels in the back . I’m making a super dope speaker box with thick glass for 4 12” 5000 watts for bass and 1600 for the highs . I’m making new everything even doors . It would be worth a video for your channel . You can find me on ig same name

[@Twotonz]

I didn't see the six wheeler but killer interior work man. I'll be going to AZ for a show in March but I won't have time to stop by and do a video shoot because of my day job but hopefully someday in the future I will.
