Restoring a Dodge Cummins. 2 year project(my Grandmas old truck)

[@MaltonCampbell]

I'm in Texas, an old Military Vet. I once owned a 7.3 Power Stroke Ford older model. I really liked. Before that I used to see and hear tha first generation dodge trucks. Man to be totally honest to this day I still love tha look and sound of tha older dodge cummins some fifty years later. My plans are to in tha near future find me one

[@pyro323]

That Johnny Cash song One Piece At A Time. I like how you put a Cummins in it with a 6 speed! Nice job! 👍 🇺🇲

[@brandonalley1082]

‘Twas all ready a Cummins truck.

[@CBHandleYamahaRider]

Hey Sam i've been watching your video's the past 3 day's. Great! finished Project's on your Dodge Cummins truck's. I'm Subscribed to your channel. My Uncle Owned a Really nice 2nd Gen 1997 100% Stock besides new axle bearings bushings brakes, paint on hood & roof. He bought the truck brand new in Port Alberni British Columbia. I got my license for the second time early this year. I really wanted to buy his truck. Couldn't get it unfortunately. He sold it for $10,000. I got to see the truck only once in my life when i was 12 years old. I got a another cummins story for ya that i will comment on your white 2nd gen truck towing video. Cheers later. Nick from Van Isl. B.C. Canada

[@buildingsalvage]

Man I did not expect you to drop Taylor Ray’s name in here! Dude is a great builder and has some sick drift cars. Y’all have two of my favorite channels!

[@dederonair]

[@GOOF2ooo]

Grandma's truck is how I found your channel. And I have enjoyed your channel ever since.

[@LoneWolf-cf5tp]

Excellent job. Cab lights would look good. Maybe 3rd gen badges. Nevertheless it’s beautiful, I’m sure grandma is very proud. 👍🏻

[@jayg479]

Yes cab lights!

[@Tractors_Trucks_And_Pups]

Truck turned out awesome! Perty much built my dream truck. 2nd gen, 12 valve, cummins, 6 speed manual, flatbed, dually, brush guard, everything about that really! Even the color, would like a black, grey, or white truck

[@claudiodiiorio9523]

Nice job Grandma most be proud, hope that’s truck stays in the family for ever

[@joshdedeke2275]

2 years already! How long have I been watching this channel? Seems like last week Alcoa's were bought for the 5500 for hitting 5k subs. Looks great Sam.

[@traynorwhitehead7436]

Those in-dash cup holders were never good. Excellent use of that spot. Great work Sam!

[@frankt3431]

The best thing about old cummins is how simple they are to take apart

[@paulrollinsjr.1845]

Damn Hoss time fly's had no clue its been that long, its gorgeous congrats grama will be proud.

[@mikestrucks]

The flatbed and the duals are looking so good on this truck 😎🙌🏻

[@jimt125]

Poetry in motion,"that is one bad grandma" can't wait to here it pulling a trailor w a load on.now you gotta bring Callahan , boon and Taylor out to let grandma take it for a scoot.congrats , happy st Patrick's day say hey to v-belt👍🏻🇺🇸

[@claylane7964]

Man I just saved big time on those bumpers. They are on sale right now. With your discount and their sale it saved me $850. Basically got the rear bumper free. Thanks and awesome work you do!

[@bradstubbings9871]

That truck came out beautiful lots of hard work and hours. Worth every minute and every penny.

[@timbailey8701]

That’s a great story and an awesome truck it definitely don’t look like grandma’s truck anymore but it’s money and time well spent to bring her back I hope it stays in the family and maybe someday you can pass it on to your son

[@mike.monkhouse]

Turned out great! Love Taylor Ray's videos and the fummins!

[@jamesgunnyreed]

Great Job...! 2 years? Cant believe Ive been watching that long.. Longer actually. LOL.

[@woos31]

Well done Sam, cool that it's a family heirloom and completely restored to enjoy for the rest of Callahan's years too!

[@ShortyG724]

AWESOME work Sam. The part you said about her cleaning her own bus and taking pride in her work really rings true

[@doclull1989]

Great job Sam. The old truck has come a long way.

[@gtr1952]

Great job Sam! She is just awesome! Calahan is going to be real proud of her someday too!!! Ya boy!! 8) --gary

Definitely the best Cummins content on KZbin!

[@LoneWolf-cf5tp]

I definitely agree. 👍🏻

[@LightWaIker]

Nice truck. You've been blessed with a very sound mind. A winch would have been a great addition on this truck. God bless you brother.

[@klosnoski]

LOVE it!! A proper cowboy caddy .them fuel freaks gotta be just squirming to see a lube a filner on that fass setup. I say kudos! And the best word of this build is , doo hickey. Was my granny's fave word next to whatchacallit. Mine was from MN and bless your granny and again great build

[@stevescoville8465]

Nice job, really nice job man. You are one talented dude.

[@aidanabeln828]

[@rockingkvideos3160]

Yeah Buddy, that turned out great, can’t wait for another Grandma smiling video. I’ve followed your channel for a while now and this series on Grandmas truck build has been my favorite....Well done Sam and thanks for sharing👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

[@Slyder327]

Love love love this rig ! Man you nailed it..... like you said ya took your time completing it to make sure it was just right. Well done sir ...... she’s a beauty. Now ya need to load up the little man in that exact same seat you rode home with Grammy in and take him for a cruise.

[@NotSureJoeBauers]

Didnt know this was your grandmas truck just thought it was a grandmas truck. The duals and the flatbed are really sweet

[@celticdude4686]

Love the truck. I was looking for a bumper and found Black patch . Then found your channel and saw the bumper on grandmas truck. That was it I bought one. Thanks for the discount. $850.00 shipped.

[@djpmatchbox]

You built basically what I want to do with my next truck. I don't care if its gas or diesel, but I want a dually with extended cab and flatbed. I honestly don't even mind if its dodge, chevy, or ford. we will see what happens in the future. but grandma's truck looks amazing!

[@monaromanmax]

Retired vehicle restorer from the UK, and not that into trucks. There's not a lot of Grandma's truck left. BUT, that's smart!!! And I would like to own! it, well done sir

[@joseramos7476]

Grandma is proud. truck is sweet.

[@larryselfridge6733]

It’s amazing what emotion will do to you . You did a great job and it’s been nice to see you complete this step by step.

[@coltonindra1047]

[@peewee.3138]

Put a train horn on the old overdrive switch! Amazing project- your best so far!

[@VBELTandSON]

[@bluecollarphil7064]

Great video brother! Was a pleasure watching it 🤙🏻

[@narenzonorris9053]

Sam you did an awesome job man,I like it a lot sickly sweet 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾.

[@rayb.6418]

Awesome build buddy!! Cummins for life!!!

[@Jb-gn1xd]

I bought a 1995 3500 cab and chassis in November 1994 built bed myself and it has 64000 original miles still a good truck but the steering has always been loose enjoyed the video

[@bret0044]

Remember when u hauled that thing home. Well done sir!!!!

[@jayh8490]

dude, you have outdone yourself! that is so sharp, so clean, looks awesome, the attention to detail is impressive. love the running lights on those mirrors, i would love that on my ram. mine are just turn signals. amazing job, you should be proud

[@andrewcarnes1726]

Looks good I'm sure grandma is proud of what you did with it

[@georgeenriquez612]

Get-er done Ol son! That’s one bad cherry!

[@mwils51]

Nice job dude! I am in almost the exact same situation as you only maybe not nearly as bad as far as the engine and drive train go. My father-in-law passed last month. My brother-in-law inherited his 2019 Dodge Ram 2500. I inherited his 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 he parked in the cow pasture when he bought the 2019 Dodge. Mechanically the only thing wrong with it is the AC won't turn on and is stuck on heat due to the blend door being broke. The engine fired on the first crank and it has a full tank of diesel in it. It only has 130K miles on the truck. Runs perfect. Now the rest of it is as bad if not worse than yours. The truck never saw a car wash or vacuum cleaner until I took it yesterday. The bed and cab were stacked with all kinds of junk. It has been sitting for 4 years with the back glass broken out. The thing was and still is totally nasty inside even after me scrubbing on it for hours at the car wash yesterday. Fed them a whole plastic baggy full of quarters and I am probably half way done. The bed on the truck is pretty beat up and I love how you solved that problem with the work bed and fixed the front end with the cattle guard. I didn't know you could turn a 2500 into a dually 3500. WOW! I would love to get mine restored as nice as yours but I doubt I will take it that far.

[@shawnriddle3018]

Awesome. Give it back to grandma and call it The Ranch Hand.

[@alanwhitehead7664]

That is one sweet truck. Excellent job buddy

[@tiptoplandsolutions1421]

Sweet work Sam ! You nailed it...spot on !

[@vtx2005retro]

Very very nice. You gave the truck its pride back plus some. If Herbie the VW was a truck it would be big grey!

[@Shop_Simplicity]

Just an outstanding job!! The truck is amazing!! Great work!!!

[@seanroberts2394]

Very nice young man! Those wheels absolutely make that truck!

[@lyndonhamby7432]

Ya did good Sam. I got 20 inch Fuel Mavericks and 12.50s on my 06 g56 dually would be wicked on that truck love your truck content congrats on the baby and all your my favorite channel. Keep it coming 👍👍

[@randyvanetta5197]

Bro you did an amazing job on this truck. Love watching it come back to life. Love the channel also. Great work.

[@ethanpotvin4000]

I'm about to bring my grandfather's second gen back to life its been sitting for 10 years

[@HammerPowered]

Truck came out great...worth the time and effort. And the story behind it, being your grandma's and riding off the lot in it and all that, makes it all the more satisfying to see it done I'm sure.

[@mikestrucks]

Awesome job buddy ! I bet grandma is proud of you 👍🏻

[@jeffreyturner6262]

Glad to see the truck at this stage, definitely up to being called a dream truck now.

[@carl3766]

Taylor Ray does really do work that makes me feel like a hack sometimes. Fantastic video! The truck looks great!

[@307elkhunter]

I just got my grandpas 99 7.3 powerstroke. 286,000 miles. Grandpa used it as his primary truck for his construction business he had.

[@bobpettit6653]

Sam, you did a fantastic job on your Grandma’s car. Is there anything that you don’t know how to do. I have never seen a person that knows so much about everything. I’m sure your grandma is very very proud of you.

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

I have been waiting for this video!! Excellent job Sam- I am sure your grandma will be happy and proud of all the work you put it and how the truck turned out!!!!

[@LunchBoxWars]

Looks amazing! Anyone would be proud to drive that Unit!

[@paulnorval9646]

Congrats Sam, an amazing build and the finish shows the effort you put into restoring Grandma’s truck!

[@nutsaccheesecake8233]

Now that's a RAM Truck!!!! 🔥

[@gregsimon9061]

I have been with you on this journey, I have seen the multiple engines in and out. There is no doubt that you have touched every nut and bolt on this truck. She was stubborn and fought hard, but perseverance won out. She looks great, congratulations.

[@Pan_Gotti]

Looks killer man, only thing I wouldn't have done is that shifter handle but hey it ain't my ride home.

[@Weekendspeedshop8787]

Truck turned out awesome! Congrats!

[@vendetta1306]

That's one clean boy, well done

[@kdtxtooldad]

Awesome job on restoring this truck!

[@tcard2008]

Looks awesome bud! Love the color combo you went with and that it’s now a dually! Congrats I wish many more enjoyable miles in a truck that’s part of your childhood and your family!

[@jeremyjencks5864]

Looks awesome, making grandma proud!

[@nmelkhunter1]

Very well done. That is something to be very proud of!

[@terryhenson4407]

It turned out beautiful, great job. I wouldn't change a thing, now go and enjoy.

[@travisstevens9432]

[@JTSMotorsports]

So badass! Great work brother! 🤘🏼

[@brianherron5400]

Awesome looking truck, you done a great job 👍, like to see grandma's truck back together in one piece.

[@vernongoodwin3269]

Looks amazing man, and what a cool story!! I have my Grandpas 64 Chevy truck and I love see it every day!

[@MrGoldMember]

Should make the old overdrive button your profile switch if you put in a tuner lol. Overdrive becomes fun mode! Great job on the truck, looks better than my 18'!

[@timmysapp7413]

love the truck. you should get black hub caps for the front instead of chrome

[@peewee.3138]

Once it’s finished, you need to find a big old Airstream camper and take Grandma away for the weekend!

[@bigmurph1447]

Boy that truck turn out really nice good job. I love the looks of a 2nd gen dually one of my favorite trucks out there.

[@richardbrowne1679]

Sam: Great Story and Fantastic Work restoring the truck.

[@ColdPizzaKilla]

I just did this exact same thing to my 4th gen! I also did every last bolt on the truck and frame. New flatbed as well. Awesome job!

[@georgeenriquez612]

Good job man! She came out sweet. I’ve been waiting for this video since the beginning. Adding those toolboxes underneath the bed will compete it, they hide the frame and make the truck look cleaner

[@leviross4683]

Dang sam i love the way it turned out and love the way it stands and just over all just love the hole truck and you did a really great job on this truck sam proud of you man

[@danielseipert9426]

Love the color Sam! One of my favorite colors. I think this is the best build you have done! Keep up the bad ass work! And thanks for the videos you do!

[@cnormally7426]

[@rionegro7368]

[@jacobskiles9981]

That is awesome, you do amazing work.

[@edwardkane3237]

What a phenomenal transformation !!! You did an awesome job restoring and modifying Grandma’s truck. I don’t know how I stumbled across your channel ? I’m thinking it was your land clearing videos ? I work for the Ohio Dept. of Transportation. I work as a construction project inspector in the summer and work in the maintenance dept. in the winter. They bring me back to maintenance around the end of November till late March to plow snow. I run a Kobelco SK85 with a Fecon forestry head on the days it’s not snowing. We also have a Bobcat T770 with a forestry head. We work both of them to clear our overgrown right of ways. Sure would like to meet you in person one day. I had a 1997 Ram2500 with a 12 valve the we used to plow snow. Unfortunately it rotted away from all the salt we have to use to keep the roads clear. That truck was a plowing Beast !!!

[@landenanderson4822]

crazy how far your videos have come man, and i'm still here enjoying every one! Excellent work on this truck. Turned out beautiful
