Rebuilding a rolled over Chevrolet Silverado the cheap way
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
It is time to start a new build. It is hard to find rust-free trucks near me so I drove to Arkansas to find one. I found the worst color combo available so it might look a little different when it is done. Let's see if we can get it running and get started on fixing it. Oh yeah, I want to fix it for less than $1000 in parts. I hope Scott's GM truck emporium will sponsor me!

I have better luck selling a 20 year old truck than a Lambo, so it works out! 😂
I had no idea Chevrolet made a "flat top" edition of these trucks. LOL. Thanks again for another fun build, Scott.

@@vehcor the body structure is quite a flip flop but you will make it better than new - amazing work you deliver
This is amazing! This was my truck. I was the only owner, bought it brand new in 2002 and drove it until my 17 year old son rolled it! Are you gonna sell it? Or keep it?

Gteat to see you rebuilding those GM trucks all the other stuff is good but for some reason I don't think anyone knows those trucks better than you keep those builds coming !
That's awesome your saving this one and its red too!People really dont know how rare regular cab shortbed 4x4s are and they are by far the best looking.Too bad this one isnt 5 speed manual,that's only thing that would have made it better.

I own a 2010 model year of this build sheet. Mine is a Z71 RCSB just like this one is. Yes, you are right. They are rare.
I love Vehcor's channel as an avid automotive enthusiast and mechanic myself I find his videos are educational, informative, and relaxing..... His skills paired with the vast knowledge and dry humor he adds to the channel makes his videos the golden content that I've come to know and love over the past few years... Keep pumping out that quality content, amazing stuff man!!!
Love the 99-07 Silverado content!

Easy to work on, easy to sell. I like them too!
I only live in Illinois because family is around here, otherwise I'd be in a snowless location. Have bought many cars from Arkansas and the south because "no rust". Rust sucks big time and why pay for it if you can drive a few miles south and not have to deal with it. Most of the cars I've bought in AR have had razorback decals on the rear window. Go Hogs! Always look forward to your rebuilding videos!
No step for a high stepper. You make it look so easy and not one foul word. Hats off to the master.
Its good to see you revive these old trucks and put them back on the road. You should really be teaching repair shop classes to the bad hacks out there.
You literally roll the dice when pulling trim, it's 50/50. I can't wait to see where you attach the roof and rear cab panel, me I would do the complete rear cab panel and cut the front pillars for an adjustment on the windshield I know longer do collision repairs after 37yrs. so I really enjoy your repairs and sometimes comical comments and explanations. Keep em Coming Scott
Just got home from Portsmouth, NH. Fought traffic all day. Thank goodness Scott I had a great unwind video tp watch. Great rebuild this is gonna be. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and be well.
Whoa, random! My parents used to own a restaurant in Morrilton, AR. Worlds colliding!
I love how you pick up cars from my younger days... wait. Oh we are the same age! Awesome.
This is gonna be a very interesting build. The average working man truck. I wish you could find more of these to do.
Did this sort of work with my dad back in Australia for many years. Love what you do and how you go about it. Look forward to your video's every week. Awesome stuff

Good to see another GMT800 on the channel. Love these trucks. I have like 4 of them waiting to be fixed. Pretty easy to work on and they sell well.
The windshield removal tool may not be standard procedure for safelite, but it is for volunteer firefighters when they extricate patients. Love the content. My dad rebuilt vehicles for 40 years, so watching these videos takes me back to my childhood of watching him take something like this or any other vehicle you have done and make it look brand new.
Your window removal skills are excellent.

Morrilton Devil Dogs. That made me smile. Greetings from Arkansas...
9:00 The "Road Test" is a very good idea, I was thinking about where the engine oil goes when the truck was upside down and how long it kept running. I also like how you drove down what looks like the main street in town. Nice! Looking forward to the build, as always.. 💪
Another "GREAT" production Scott! Amazing vehicle condition from a "rust-free" state even if it has a few hard miles on it. Surely when you finish up it'll be "Better than NEW" Have a great weekend and a relaxing Labor Day! 😎
Your always making me laugh with your dry sense of humor or sarcasticness. Love it!!!
I never saw a windshield cut out with a Sawzall before, but I like it!
Real cars, real rebuilds and real hard work. Thanks. 👍
I love how you have identified a solid market space. Get "rust free" fixable wrecks for peanuts, put some time and peanuts into it and sell it for a pallet load of peanuts. You be making money where few dare to tread.
One of my favorite channels Really looking forward to watching this build series. Should be very interesting as the previous ones always have been.
Fantastic video as always Scott! Thank you for showing your process in such great detail!
Scott is a class act!! His work is flawless and 100% done correctly. I wish there were more craftsmen like him. Thank you for your videos.
Im happy to see someone fixing such an old truck its in to nice of shape anyways to just scrape it
Dang. I bet this is already sold. Looks like video from earlier in the year. Love to have this vehicle👍
Ran across your video and recognized the scenery. What a small world!
I don’t comment that much on here but really like these rebuild series! Love your videos man! Be watching for the next one!
Look forward to your shows. I still say you would make a great instructor.

I’m amazed you can straighten that roof out. Thought you were going to cut it off and replace it. Looking forward to the next episode.
Good repair job coming up. Looking forward to it. Thanks for the video.
I like his teardown method and comments. Looking forward to future videos
Nice job finding that one! They are kind of rare. I had its twin but better looking sister, 2002 RCSB Z-71 4.8 with a 5 speed in dark green. I loved that truck, it is one of the few I regret letting go of.
Such a good little truck, definitely worth saving! Cool build, looking forward to seeing it done
A bit surprised to see you fixing the cab not replacing it or at least the roof section.
That casually “missed a gear” @17:15 had me rolling, love the great sense of humor you get to in your videos
What a pleasant surprise to have your video to watch on this Saturday morning! Our Springboks are playing Australia later this morning, as they are about 6 hours ahead of us here in South Africa.

Can you imagine seeing that drive past you on the road? They probably thought he had just rolled the truck and was fleeing the scene of an accident. 😂
Not sure why when I started watching this I thought it was going to be a one video rebuild. I guess I'm just use to Scott's efficiency. Can't wait to see it done.
Scott you’re a hero wanting to rebuild a truck with so much damage looking forward to this one, hi from Ireland

This video kind of applies to my regular cab '89 GMC pickup... a tree fell on it last winter and caved in roof. It's not as bad as this one though, it didn't break any of the glass and the doors still open. It fared better than my '79 Trans Am that was parked next to it.
Great video, this will be a cool project! Thanks Scott!

Nice work. What a beautiful town you live in!
Enjoy your videos--great job! Had to laugh; back in the mid 70's started my first job, traveling all over the state of AR to rural communities. First thing I noticed was that everybody drove short bed pickups (this was before the days of crewcabs) instead of our long bed pickups we were accustomed to on the farm in MO. And a bunch of then in Eastern AR, in the rice area, were 4WD. Maybe it's the same today.
Thanks for showing this truck... I have a truck modified by a 4' oak tree which got the bed and cab... Not sure what the body man has in mind, but I like what you are doing and will follow the build. You are interesting and keep it real...
3:04 AAAAHHHHHHHH never gets old!
2-door short beds are like hens teeth around here. Looking forward to this build!
Literally to the 1% who's reading this, God bless you, and may your dreams come true, stay safe and have a wonderful day.
I drove my 1976 Sierra 2500 home after rolling it. 28 miles without a front and rear wiindshield. Had it fixed and drove it for another 4 years before selling it.
This is going to be a great series. 👍
sometimes I think you do these rebuilds just to see how many people you can trigger. I love it.
great video thanks
you some how make repairing these vehicles look easy , but I know its not easy after doing one myself, good channel by the way
Almost 200K Dude lol very well done! I remember the old days hahaha
Good seeing you again buddy .
Love your channel I look forward to seeing your videos
The “Identifies as” part was golden 🤣
Haven't you heard? Experts know everything.
Great video sir 👍🏻👍🏻
Hey that’s basically my truck (mine’s the GMC flavour)… and mine isn’t smashed up….yet😁😁😁😁…. Nice to see a build so close to home so to speak!!!! Be waiting for this one..
Terrifying trailer unloading scream was a solid 9 out of 10! 👍 Curious to see how you fix this cab. Was a fairly nice truck before wreck! Lots of “in the pile” coming our way! LOL
Did that front wheel drive in my 88 ranger when the u joint went out only had to drive 25 miles to home and fix it up, really fun when you use your belt to hold up the drive shaft.
Fantastic video
It will be interesting seeing you repair that cab. More usual to replace it.
