canada. where cars come to die.. it kills me when i see less then 10 year
old cars and trucks looking so rusted out, its all the salt shit, makes me
not want to drive anything but beaters because they dont last anyways
Didn’t think your truck was that rusty, lol
Shows the importance of getting your vehicle’s undercoated, especially in
our climate and with all the salt on the roads.
Hey Bill I hear Corb Lunds basing a new song on you, and working with a new
band. It’s Called my truck Got F@#$*d, and Sung by “The Ontario road salt
Boys” , L.O.L.
Glad you got real lucky with the bolts not all breaking off. I got a
tractor in the shop here in Manitoba for a customer. It originally came
from a municipal yard in Ontario. salt has eaten most of the lower
cab/floor and that was a bummer to get the cab off to rebuild the clutch
and gearbox, then I got to try put it all back half decent, when I’m done.

If you use the hook to replace the tub, hive each rope a wrap around the
hook, should stop it from slipping, but still allow you to adjust the angle
of the dangle ;)
I have a 1996 c1500 and the line burst on me, and had to replace all of the
rear lines along with the hose, but never removed the bed and couldn’t if I
had tried due to rust. My truck is equally rusty… actually, mine is
worse, and the reciprocating saw was required to remove the one hose. I
think a farmer in Iowa owned mine and parked it in a barn where ground
moisture killed the underside while the body looks great. These trucks are
tough, the frames can withstand this level of rust and more, but I wouldn’t
overload or trailer a battle tank.
Bill, use a c-clamp to locate the rope on your forks so that it won’t
slide around on ya. Break out the pressure washer and give the
undercarriage a proper cleaning before you put the bed back on.
Good luck with the truck bill. But i i would say get a new truck at the
moment you can before something critical breaks on the highway. last thing
you need is a motor vehicle accident.

A good ideas is to put the Tyre you took off under the truck so if it falls
it falls on the tire not you
get a new muffler
WHAT ALL THE TOOLS YOU HAVE AND YOU DONT HAVE A LINE BENDER ? COME ON MR.
BILL GET WITH THE PROGRAM
ALSO WHAT WAS THE THING CALLED YOU USED TO FLARE THE ENDS OUT AND END ? IF
YOUR NAME IS NOT MR. BILL PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER …THANK YOU
bill, two words, penetrating spray… bolts will come off a lot easier with
a little spray down
That truck is probably worth more as scrap metal.
Great video Bill. Hoping to find the courage to work on my brakes in the
future.
Think it’s time for a new truck bill
Imagine what the mechanic says when You go for your yearly certification!
Oh my, I wouldn’t want to imagine, that much rust is unholy
if i waas you bill i would take all the pipes fuel tank off everything then
sand it back and then hamerite it or rust proof paint the lot
Now i know what my grandfather was talking about why cars don’t last long
in areas that snow… fuck me bill the truck is destroyed underneath!!!
I could not imagine driving something that rusty.
Might be a good idea to rub down the chassis and give it a quick coat in
Hammerite paint while the bed is off.

Sandblaster and give her a coat of paint or undercoating.
take me for a ride on your new bike.
Wire wheel all that surface scum off the truck and spray some undercoating
or black paint on it all and it’ll look so much better

U should put a flatbed on it

RUSTED!
A good steam-clean, let it dry off and a gallon or so of waxoil under-seal
would make that all look like new under there.
Holy crap look at that muffler,here in PA i have a flowmaster on my car for
5 years and only rust is on the welds
