1936 Ford Roadster Custom Lasalle Grille Surround Fabrication Alright guys, heres a good one! hope you guys enjoy! tried another different filming style, not so many time lapses this time. let me know what you think!
I was against this project at first but you have changed my mind. Definitely making a one off piece of art. Really tits. Looks like a lot of fun too. I’m really happy to see you having so much success. Keep up the good work!
Stunning fabrication...shape and form are amazing! You attention to detail and the little things that make or break a build are incredible! That Lasalle grille is gorgeous and seems like it should have been there all along! Go RAC Garage, keep moving forward!
Hey Travis, I think your work on the '36 is fantastic. I found your channel when you had finished installing the cowl. I when back to the start to watch the first episode (and the following episodes) to see what the car was like when you started. Man, the car was in such bad shape, when you see where it's at now you've done an incredible job. Also, it's great to see your son in the shop with Dad. Cheers, from Downunder.
So glad you said you are going to flange the bottom inch or so of the chin/new metal, it was starting to look like a Mack truck front bumper... Keep plugging away at it, the progress is great.
Afternoon Travis, your attention to detail is awesome!! Very impressive!!! I'm not into customs, but what I enjoy the most is watching you use your tools & equipment to make each piece...Be safe!!! God Bless!!
The commitment to quality work is impressive.you and karl from make it custom along with the young man in australia whos name slips me,are the 3 most watched videios by me .i love you all .keep up the great work.
That's quite a lot of additional front end. Now that I see where you were going with it, I like it. Behind the face are there going to be any supports or stiffening brackets? There is going to be a pretty good amount of pressure at road speeds. I heard you mention the flange to be added under. I guess that is a good place to add some strength. Fantastic work you do. Your very skilled and I wish you continued success. Beautiful Car.
My first time watching your channel! You have some excellent fabricating skills. Very impressive work on the grill sides and fender extensions. I will be tuning in for more. It's nice to see some quality work for a change as most garage guys on here are just butchers. I'm very impressed with the quality of your work. I consider myself a much better than average metal worker, and I have built many rods , so I know what quality work should look like.
When i change wheel openings ,i cut the size out and add 3/8 ths steel rod ,welded to the edge ,, on the inside like a ford rolled edge or on the outside showing a reveal line like chevys ,,,, makes them strong
Put it on the ground, it may be to low at the bottom of the grill. I have a 39 Chevy that is low in front and i hit the front chin panel on one of those little concrete turtles 🐢, it did a lot of damage . Keep up the good work.
here's a way to tell a 30 from a 31 model A - if it has a tear drop shape indentation (appx 6-7" x 4") and two inch deep on the passenger side of the firewall (diagonally "its a 1931) like a big 39 tail light bucket sideways
great job, glad to see you showing more of how you work the metal, What brand of hand shears do you use, they just seem to cut and cut and cut. Keep up the good work
