Great dodge pickup!!! I really liked all the custom metal pieces that were made. It’s a shame the aftermarket ignores these trucks , for the most part.

You guys are so lucky to do this project together. My dad and I restored his '66 D100 in 1978. Turned a lot of heads as he drove through town. He's gone now and I have his truck. The next resto is on me, and I will surely miss his guidance. Great series. Nice outcome. Keep on wrenching and fabbing.

Defiantly do not take the time for granted, has been super fun and looking forward to many builds to come ! Apprentice the support, and would love to see your 66! We have a Facebook page (Real Steel Fabrications) feel free to share if you would like.

@@RealSteelFabrications I think this video has a great chance of blowing up. For the start to finish builds, I usually just do time lapse but I like the way you did yours. It has a great flow to it. Any idea what vehicle will be your next project?

@RealSteelFabrications 2 жыл бұрын

@@AustinCoulson ya I’m starting to film more time lapse and incorporate them in the videos, I got a little better at filming as the build went on, still learning. The next build will be a 1969 Dodge D200 crew cab camper special. I will also be using the money I’ve made so far off of KZfaq, and buy a 1992 fox body Mustang convertible I plan on getting going for $1000 or less and making a build series on it as well.

Liked and sub'd before it even got started. As soon as you said it started as a long bed. A couple weeks ago I bought a 72 D200 long bed with 73K original miles and nearly zero dents or rust. It's been sitting under a tree for 17 years, but buffed up pretty nicely. Can't wait to get the old 360 pumped up and shredding tires:)

Yeah I was looking into a Chrysler product the Dodge truck it has a slant six like what dads 35 Plymouth doctors Coupe is getting... I think I'll just go for something in the early 80s to Mid maybe there's a whole lot less rust. So they don't have aftermarket panels it appears it's a lot of this you had to fabricate

I hate the lumpy paint crap, and it ain't a truck if it ain't a long bed. I would have used lowering blocks and left the springs alone on the rear, you may regret what you did. I hope you didn't scrap the parts you didn't use, you could build a second truck.
