Finally Reassembling my 1980 Toyota Pickup Rat Rod Build
Today I'm reassembling the entire truck (except for a few parts I'm still waiting on.) First I install everything into the engine bay that sits behind the engine. Then I finished the interior. Next, I called Mikey @theshopspot9053 over to help me reinstall the 20R engine. Then, I reinstalled the rest of the accessories and parts into the engine bay, along with the doors, fenders, and front end. I had to adjust the torsion bars to raise the front end up 1". And finally, I had to slightly modify the upper control arms to clear the long sliders on the top of the 1-ton brake calipers.

      An automotive paint shop should be able to get it for you in the quantity you need.

    way too many products for a simple job, probably used 5 or 6 different cans at $15 per can to just spray center caps silver .....not enough bang for the buck, clean them and use silver spray paint

      You can just use the silver and skip the adhesion promoter and primer sealer, and even the clear coat, but all those help the longevity of the paint job. I'd rather do it one time and be done.

    Long video, but I watched it all. Great work! I have a 72 Pinto with rusty floor pans like yours. I was really thinking what I needed to do was impossible but now I'm encouraged to continue on. Thanks for motivating me. I subbed also.

    I've never done any sort of body work before, and yes, you are making me cringe, too.

      I honestly can’t remember if mine had that feature or not. It was a manual, so I think it did not.

    Hey... does the fluid film in the under-carrage of the car get affected when off-roading in the Mud?

      The fluid film actually repelled mud if I sprayed it on before offroading.

    It is evident that you were born with a talent many envy, including myself. You are a critical thinker, with an artistic, architectural and engineering eye, all rolled into one human being. You! Most people struggle to achieve one of those talents and you are a master of all these. What an achievement! Your work is not only sophisticated, it is tasteful and the result was absolutely stunning! I'm sure your parents are gushing with pride! In fact, if you could only see the smile on my face, I am damn proud of your work here. If only I can achieve a fraction of the talent you present here! And at the end, your gracious show of appreciation, shows yet another angle of who you are. You are also humble and you have class. If I could give your video a thousand thumbs up, that wouldn't be enough. But you get mine, and I'm just another nobody learning and getting an education through your videos. I also subscribed. Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge with us. In a world full of haters and offended people you rise high above and shine like a star, and you're not even trying! It is obvious that you are just being you! Again, many thanks!! 💪😎👍
