  Cherish these moments with your Dad, Travis. When he’s gone, no matter how much time you spent with him, you’ll question whether it was enough. It’ll sure never be too much! My Dad passed the day before my birthday last year, I was right by his side, and, stayed there the last week of his life. NOTHING. Ould ever replace those final conversations and memories shared with my Dad and our family!!

  After 35 years dad probably only has a few more payments to the Snap-on truck and the tools are all his.

  I can see your point in not wanting to paint the engine, but your dads point is better, plus when somebody opens the hood of a beat up old truck and see&apos;s a pristine well cared for engine the look on their face will be priceless.<br>Great job both of you

  I&apos;ve watched hundreds of rebuild/restore channels. <br>You take the time to explain, in layman&apos;s terms, the how to&apos;s. I&apos;m 70 and have built overhauled many engines. You take the time to explain. Much appreciated 👍

  As a retiree, I share your philosophy against the &quot;open checkbook&quot; approach. &nbsp;I reuse bolts also for the same reasons as you plus they&apos;re American made. I plan on doing what you&apos;re doing to a 3.9 Dodge V6 so I appreciate your demonstration/explanations. &nbsp;Great project to bring back to life.

  Watching you and your dad work on these old vehicles is an absolute joy. My dad died in 1996 and I wish so much we&apos;d had the chance to do ANYTHING together. &nbsp;Thanks to your dad for the head, to Bruce for the workbench, and thanks to you for giving old tools new life and for bringing us these videos.

  It&apos;s so satisfying to watch someone rehab instead of throwing new parts at a project, nothing will ever be as good as OEM (especially with the quality of todays parts) Thanks gentlemen and please keep it up!

  You made the right decision with the motor that truck does not need a V8
