"I'm just gonna rattlecan it, it's a work rig" proceeds to do 100k worth of body work and fab, LOL
I remember when you started the General. I thought you were off your nut. When it came together I thought man this guy has vision and skill unreal. The General is the coolest binder on the continent. Take it easy...cant wait for the next one🐾
The general is for sure a five star !! An the builder is
The general is for sure a five star and so are you !!!! Great job )!!!!!
Equal parts astonishing and unnatural. Brilliant reimagining of what International would have done in 1960 if they had thought of it. They didn't. Lucky for us you did.
Still my favorite, I think I've watched you build the General three times.
An insane amount of work for one guy in the time allotted especially where more than one automotive trade is required to complete each job step. I really enjoyed this condensed start to finish version. They're all nice, but the General without a doubt is my favorite build. Thanks for sharing Brent.
This is the coolest truck, ever! You are so talented.
Deff agreed that thing is seeeexy😎
Thats absolutely stunning my friend stunning love to drive that around the uk lol ,would be great if you could make it into a camper that would be great 👌so talented

You are a craftsman.
This is the first build of yours I ever watched, Fantastic work, Haven’t missed a build since, Your vision and build quality is amazing
Hi Brent it's nice to see people that are willing to share and not be selfish keep up the good work hope the new shed is finished
Holy cow! That thing has the best styling I've ever seen on a build. The end result is second to none. I love this!
Absolutely a gorgeous build. Alot of talent went into this truck. And I actually watched the whole video. Great job.
A lot*
You are a true craftsman and I'm not peeing in your ear and trying to tell you it's raining. Great job. 😊
Your giggle at the scale of the work ahead of you when you first set the other cab on the International chassis was worth a watch alone. A man screaming "WHAT HAVE I DONE?!?" 🤣🤣
After watching this video I had to binge watch the original videos. Thank you for keeping me awake till 3:30am! I do absolutely love this build. You do fantastic work and you have such vision. You should consider doing more of these for actual paying customers. Opening up a shop with help so you can knock them out.
The amount of talent that this man has is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!! To have this as a vision in your head and then be able to fabricate it all by himself is unreal!
It looks so easy, but it requires special skills to make that kind of custom truck. And the end result is absolutely amazing.
This is a KILLER project, I gave up ten times out of frustration as I watched you work your magic. You seem to enjoy the multi challenges of an enormous and really complicated project.
Watched the whole video even though i rarely watch long videos in KZhead. I was much in Awe 👍👍👍
In my opinion 1 of the best trucks I've ever seen. I like the fact that it can be used and driven everyday! Great video 👍
Revisting the greatest ever build on youtube was AWSOME. I watched the series as you built it and just watched the revisit. By far the greatest build i have ever seen. You Sir are the master!!!!!!!
So happy i watched this to the end. That baby patiently waited for you , seeing you take baby for a ride first thing made my heart happy. 2005 i bought my dually to take my Swee'pea cross country. She passed in 2013. Still have the truck .600k on it now and ill never get rid of it because of those wonderful memories of her.
Dude! YOU got some serious talent! That Truck ist absolutely badass!!!!
I just love what you are doing with your truck 🚚
From the guy who reinvented the wheel and made it better! Hats off to you Brent for the coolest quad cab ever built!
You KNOW how to work. I never seen anyone work like you. You are the MAN !!!
Man ... You are a genius You are a national treasure
I never was really into bigger trucks. However.. this build had me watching and enjoying every video. Nicely done.
The visual balance of this Crew Cab's almost 100% perfect, especially the conversion from a standard cab.
Iìiiiiiiiiķklkkkklkllllĺ0
Love that Truck you did a amazing job 😁😁👍👍👍👍👍
Mr. Halfass you're very creative mechanic..you've changed this truck in to a very attractive one..thanks alot ..
Love it. It does my heart good to see people build something out of old stuff and use it. I hate to see guys tearing up their vehicles. Loved what this guy did...very good job...I'm jealous.
Congratulations Sir, you've build yourself a really nice truck. It was a great pleasure to spent one and a half hours watching this video, the talent and craftsmanship are spot on, the music is also great, it makes time fly while watching. Great video production work!
Wanted to take this opertunity to say thank you for shareing your talents and love for your craft. Your videos have given me ideas and say yes i can do this. Thank you for takeing the time out of your busy schedule to share this with us. God bless. Hope you and your family have a great outstanding day.
Thank you for squaring the doors up!!!!!❤❤❤❤ it looks like a million bucks. You are awesome. Great work
I guess I started watching your channel in the final finishing build of “the General “. You’ve already showed me your visionary building abilities but the General is a masterpiece. Major ‘kotos’ on this!!!!
Watched the whole Series and Love the Nuts off It! Job Well Done👍👍👍
This is the greatest build I’ve ever seen
What a beautiful BEAST!! That's the rig you want when the zombie apocalypse kicks off. You're seriously talented man.
I wish we were neighbors. I can just imagine what you could teach me. Killer build !!
This truck over any other build I have seen anywhere is my favorite. I really appreciate how you show building these trucks. It is a great learning piece.
Glad I watched this "greatest hits" edit on the build. Saw some things I didn't remember and noticed you sell merchandise for the first time lol.
10/23 Wow, what can I say. I hope at least you had one sleepless night thinking about how to proceed with this work of art. I fret over one rust bubble. And hey, I bet you can’t wait to get into that new shop. Keep up the good work. Most excellent.
I LOVE THAT TRUCK FROM START TO FINISH ONE OF THE REST TRUCKS ON THE ROAD TAKE CARE OF IT, BECAUSE EVERYBODY WISH THEY HAD ONE. YOU ARE GREAT AT WHAT YOU DO.
Thanks for the reminder, I can't get enough of the general. Seeing this build again is great, the old boy coming together out of so many different parts, like Frankensteins monster.
Ho ho ho Blain calls it a girl
Not only are you the ultimate mechanical visionary, you are also absolutely FEARLESS. This is one of the most extraordinary builds conceivable. LOVE this truck. Not to mention the music, editing, photography and production. Congratulations! Thanks!
I'd be flabbergasted if the General didn't win a whole bunch of trophies if you took it to some truck shows. Definitely one of the best build vids I've watched here on YT.
Dude it looks like it's ready to GO to War, it's Gorgeous and a work of Art. I think it's worthy of some Nose art. You've made every working mans, idea of a work truck come to life. I too also love the old Dodge Power Wagon's look, and you've done it proud well done Sir. It's a definite WINNER
This Truck was well worth the effort and the Video's worth the watch .. Thanks for this one too Brent !
This by far has been the most epic build, I watched throughout from beginning to end as it transformed into the awesomeness that it is! ✌🏻😊🇺🇸🇨🇦
Every build of his is epic
@@kevinsukdolak5007 agreed but this one is at the top! ✌🏻
Saludos a este gran maestro restaurador fuerte abrazos un amigo que lo reconoce ok. De Chile
I'm not normally a fan of pick-up trucks but this one is gorgeous.
Beautiful rig! "I had these IHs laying around" what an awesome sentence
I came on board right after The General was finished, and this is so cool to get to watch it come together. A fantastic creation, your vision and skill really evident in this true Monster Truck. Thanks for this composite video.
I watched this build "live" start to finish and it's really an EPIC truck and skill you done did there on this one.. Totally METAL! */w\HalfA$$/w\*
The coolest build ever! You are a fine tuned machine my good sir!
I thought you were crazy. You proved me wrong. You are a genius, expert, artist. Thank you for inspiration. I just keep learning from you.
Just an amazing job and result. I love how you treat custom bodywork like a big crafts project. You sure aren't afraid of plain ol hard work. You and Dan at DDSpeed are the hardest working guys on KZhead.
This is, without a doubt, one of my favorite builds! Yes, I watched all the videos of this build so whenever you showed it in a video, I remembered what went into building this!! Now, I'll hit play, and watch the build !!!! Gotta love this truck!!
Apart from that you are the best fabricator by far on any you tube channel. compulsive viewing and you face problems with a laugh amazing, keep up the good work.
Amazed at the panel gaps around the doors...shows your level of skill...great job...and one tough looking shop truck.
Well worth watching this build again. Even better in a complete start to finish build. This has to be the best truck build on KZhead.
I started watching this after he was doing or making the rear part of the cab. Been watching all Brent's videos since. Great Channel and content. Pablo is cool too. And the other one!
Just came across your channel a couple of months ago, and immediately fell in love with this truck!!! Now, this build video just came up for me. Very cool to see how it came to be!
I saw this truck cruising down Hwy 15 about a week ago and after some Fb inquiries and searching Google I finally made it to this video. Love the build.
This was a great build to watch, you should be proud of the way she looks.
This is my favorite build yet. I have watched this several times and learn something everytime. I would love to see another similar build of like a car hauler or something along those lines. This is just amazing!
Incredible amount of work you put into your "work truck". I can't imagine how much work you would put into a "show truck".
I thought, I’ll check it out, when I saw your intro I had to see how it was done, really nice work, great project, you had me watch all the way through! Thanks !!!🤗
This is the build that got me subscribed. Watched it start to finish. Definitely a must watch for anybody who hasn't seen the build videos
Building the general I watched it all . Kinda wish you'd do another truck build .
Holy shit! This is insane level of talent and patience. What a bad a$$ truck!
Finaly someone build a custom which is useful and drivable on a dayly basis . It was a plesure to see how it comes together over the time. Thank you for making this video. I must see that I missed 1 or two videos, now I know you've done it.
Love this truck 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
When I was first watching the original videos, I must admit I had my doubts on how this truck would turn out. But, boy, was I wrong! This is definitely one of the coolest projects on KZhead. I don't doubt your vision or talent anymore. Great job!!
One side of the brain says it beats a stick in the eye while the other side worshipped the work. Great build...
Какая профессинальная работа в частном гараже, а не в заводских условиях, желаю удачи и здоровья!
I have forgotten how much i love this truck, easily my favorite build on all of youtube, be cool to have the General on a magnet to put on my toolbox, think merch like rockauto magnets
I’d love a truck like this. I wish I had you talent. I like the condensed build in one video and that I can watch the greater detail episodes. Nicely done Sir.
Hands down the most talented human on KZhead!
Just watched this with my dad. We both loved it!
It’s seems at the end of watching one of your builds that I find myself saying that you have outdone yourself this time, and then…. This has gotta be the greatest truck build ever!!! Taking parts from 4 different trucks and making it all work! I know that it’s not easy but you make it LOOK easy!!! You had the best line after the start, “wow, this is gonna be a LOT bigger truck than I thought it would be!” 🤣🤣😳
That's was one amazing build. Never seen anything so creative. My congrats. So many ideas it took to put it together.
Who needs an AC if you have such an cool Truck. Greetings from Germany
Man that is one mean truck I hope you many years of luck with it and THANKS FOR THE VIDEO.
Thank you for putting the editing effort into this epic build video. This is a great video for subs to share and introduce others to the channel. 80k is right around the corner and well deserved. Cheers!
Just pure madness, what a great job! That's why I watch your channel, a great craftsman shows what he can do. Greetings from Germany
A million dollar truck by a master builder, nice work!
This is one of the greatest vehicles you have built
Great video.....I watched the series.... Enjoying 😉 N Zealand 🇳🇿
What a amazing build the General was , from your vision concept to completion ! Do wish you would use it more so we could see you hauling with it !!
Also Halfass Kustoms is a pleasure watching you Building your own Truck from what you have, I'm a retired Machine Builder and I am into Customs 🤲✌❤🤩🐴
Brent as I rewatch this masterpiece being created once again something just dawned on me. (Light on Marblehead 🤪) I never made a suggestion that I had thought of and forgot back when you built the cup holder and storage box out of that ammo can. I made a few of those back a few years ago when still enlisted before retirement. I used 50cal cans and installed an amp, an old laptop transformer and two speakers in each. This makes a great grab and go field boombox that when turned around looks like a simple storage can in a truck so unless you wanted someone to know what you had, they wouldn’t otherwise😉 Best part is it could also go from the truck at 12volts to inside the barracks at 110 with a cord. Jacks are put in for external power, a headset, and or an audio input jack to play tunes off your phone or whatever. One warrant officer put an order in for a couple larger cans to mount on her Harley which came out awesome having 10” subs in them. Pretty fun projects all in all and that’s why I thought to mention it to you if by chance you ever wanted to add any additional speakers in the general. The only issue is the vibration rattles the heck out of those flip tops so I used silicone and rubber tubing where needed and over the wire handles and it works perfect! Once again I apologize for not being able to make it to Texas this year to meet and greet, but it’s just not in the cards for this old vet this round. Maybe next year god willing, we’ll see. Ok thanks for throwing this build onto a one view vid, it’s still my favorite of all I’ve ever watched on KZhead. Please give Pablo a noggin rub for me, later…✌🏼
Had no idea this truck was even cooler in creation than I always thought it is. First bigger truck I ever drove was a 57 International oil truck, so a fan. Great towing machine bud ! First few of your videos I watched, was looking at the truck hardly noticed what was on the trailer.
Great job, that cab brings back memories for this retired truck driver, drove a 1964 R190 for a while along with a few other old Cornbinders along the way. You are unstoppable, awesome truck 👍
Man this is the baddest old school style truck I’ve ever seen! Holy shit
Шикарная машина получилась, с радостью с тобой работал!
Always enjoy watching this series! The General is awesome! Still you make look so easy! Thanks for sharing!
Your truck looks like it could go any where ! Great job, and it is a one of a kind.
Wow, imagination, talent, and an artist 👍🏼
Guys with car channels should all do condensed builds of series… because of that I’m subscribing to this channel.
I have watched a lot of your builds this one here holds a special place in my heart really enjoyed watching the build on this truck looking forward to see what comes next
This was a great build the first time I watched it and it's even better to see highlights again. You do very nice work! 👍🇨🇦
Loved the shape of some of the old cars with the round curves gave them caricature
Talking about styling and profiling!🏆WOW! You definitely know how to put the K in custom.Your excellence in fabrication and originality is absolutely suberb.By far the best build and video presentation I've ever watched.So heres to you my friend ! 🍻👊
