Tre5 Customs OBS Chevy Feature: Red On Red On Red On Red…

Image
This cool truck feature from Tre5 Customs is an OBS that just about everyone can relate to. Yes, the fit and finish is high level, the chassis is rad, and the LS swap is on point, but overall this truck is still identifiable as an OBS, with only one body modification! It still has door handles, features some sport mirrors, and other than a welded in roll pan out back doesn’t have any body mods. It’s just as the general intended, only smoother and prettier. Check out the details in the video below. As we’ve said before, the guys at Tre5 build some pretty cool trucks, and I always like watching their feature videos that come along when a project is ready to get delivered to the owner. These aren’t super sexy videos that make you ooh and aah over the truck but never actually tell you what is in it and under it, these are videos that really show you the cool stuff that went into these builds! We’re talking about the details and info that real enthusiasts want. And while these trucks are t

Is Any Die Grinder Worth Over $600?! – The Most Expensive Die Grinder Ever vs M12 & Makita

Image
The answer is no. For me anyway. I haven’t watched this video yet as I write this, but for me there is NO WAY that a die grinder is worth $602 unless it comes with an operator that I don’t have to pay. I can buy several die grinders for $100 and have backups if I needed it. But I’m not the guy who would ever buy this price point tool, even if it was $200. So let’s take my opinion out of the equation and see what the Torque Test Channel dyno testing shows, as we compare a $600 Snap On to a Milwaukie and Makita. Check it out below. Video Description: Our lifetime of TOOL RANKINGS https://etsy.me/3G8j3QK Today we test the Snap-On 14.4V 1/4″ Die Grinder vs Milwaukee M12 and Makita LXT Die Grinders. For the money, I think it’s obvious our takeaway here. But you tell us.

Amazing Video: The Wonderful World Of Wheels Hits Every Aspect Of 1960s Gearhead Life!

Image
Few films we have ever seen capture such a wide swath of 1960s geared America as this one does. “The Wonderful World of Wheels” was made by “Pete” Petersen’s production company in the 1960s and this was no low-dollar deal. Lloyd Bridges, who was already famous at this point was brought in to host/narrate the film and the on location shooting of go-karts, hot rod shows, concours shows, dune buggies, drag racing, sports car racing, and stock car racing, among other sports must have wrung up a pretty stout bill when making this movie. We have shown plenty of stock car racing, road racing, and drag racing videos from the 1960s. We have not ever seen the 1960s sand car scene shown like this film does. It shows how big and popular it was, the wild V8 powered and small engine powered buggies people were building and bringing out, kids who are now older adults are shown, older adults who are now long since passed are having a ball. NASCAR, IndyCar, NHRA, and SCCA stuff is shown along with al

Back In 1960 England You Could Cruise Your Steam Traction Engine To The Store, Slowly

Image
Ahh, 1960. It was about 15 years after the end of WWII, the cold war was brewing up nicely between Russia and everyone else, England had returned back to its jolly ol’ self, and pipe smoking doctors were taking their antique steam engines for cruises into town so their wives could buy groceries. Life was grand! This video is cool as it comes from the British Pathe archive and clearly it was made with some fun intent. Steam traction engines were a huge part of the British world for a while and that translated into steam trucks and other vehicles. As you will hear the announcer say, this particular unit is “50 years old” which is kind of shocking in and of itself, right? In 50 years transportation had gone from that to the normal gasoline and diesel vehicles that have been incrementally improved upon ever since. Interesting stuff . There is one number mentioned here that is kind of shocking and that is the number 16, which is claimed to be the top speed of this massive beast! Sure, 16
