I think the thing I really appreciate about your work is that you take things a step or two above the next guy. Your plates and brackets are thicker, better designed, and more thought out. That goes for the rest of the builds as well. Fuel lines, air lines, sheet metal, all of it.
You have a great talent for turning someone else's dumpster fire into a well-engineered and well built product. And in this day and age it's great to watch a man who actually believes in doing right by people.
Mike you can unbolt the front crossmember on a 1962 to 66 ,and take a crossmember from a 1976 and up disc brake front crossmember with power steering and it bolts in... You have to move the steering box to out side the frame and drill two holes and use two spacers... It takes about 4 to 6 hours... It's a great way to update your truck to have power steering and power disc bakes...
great job. In the beginning of the video I saw how bad the tie rods looked and was like Mike is not letting that leave the shop like that, he'll fix that and by the end I was right. sweet job
You called it right at the beginning, Mike: "Whoever did this needs to put their tools down". Pronto!! Great fix! Just don't piss off the video guy...he's by far the best one to date. 🧐
What makes this video stand out from the rest is the interaction between the 3 of them and you have a story within a story Mikes relationship with Carapilla & then His relationship with the Videography & explaining to them & us his understanding of the situation & the way in which he intends to put it right coming from the UK our access to the Custom Car World is limited & we are dripping fed what ever motortrend or discovery decides we are going to see But what we get with Mike is Top Quality bare bones Hot Rod design & build based on years of experience & it’s that honest approach coupled with the cameraman’s ability to capture it all & edit it out which makes us the viewer feel we are there I for one look forward to Sunday evenings when I get the opportunity to watch a true craftsman man at work & I thank all involved As for me I live in South Wales & I drove a 1949 Ford Popular/Anglia powered by a Buick 3.9 litre V8 on a full race chassis it’s brilliant Red runs a shortened Volvo 240 axle on 15x50 rear tyres so it’s fat & narrow & fast
Tell her she needs to address that differential leak. Poor old truck probably has the original grease in it the way it looks. Another great episode homie!
Ese lokochon,the world would be a better place if all our classic cars had mechanicos like yourself...Taking pride in what you do and concern for the customer...chaa ah haaa.
I really like how you design brackets for different situations. Great mind for sure. As others have said you always go a step beyond and improve. By the way I love the music playing in the shop. I heard a little Hendrix today.
YAY!!!!! The old welds look more like backyard boogers. Common sense aint too common. Gonna be another happy camper cruisin Mike Bellos style. Thank you Mike. Cheers
Great content as always☺️your videos remind me of working with my pops when i was little. He always emphasized he was not a carrocero, he was a Metalero. Youre a Metalero👍🏽
SIEMPRE CON ESTOS CHINGON JALE! NICE JOB BELLO'S! ALWAYS TOP OF THE LINE. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE JALE ON THE LITTLE FORD! BUENO SUERTE! ALWAYS! AND KEEP DROPPING THE NEW VIDEOS. ADIOS....
Looking at that C 10 suspension! it was built like a tank. I bet if you hit the curb at 40 miles an hour you would just break the curb. Mike did a great job of fixing and keeping the integrity of the beast! Great video.
Once again you took it to another level. Fortunately that level is Bello Kustom. Hopefully who ever did the original work doesn’t take it personal and learns from this video. Elevate your game from seeing and learning from those who are at their game. 👏
I like the thickness of the plates you created, gotta be correct according to our calculations homie. Happy Sunday from Tejas Mike, lots of Love man!🙏💪👍🌹😎🤠
A arms look factory now. A bodge job for sure. Put right by the master, and companion. Sweet truck nice and safe now. Gnrs hope to be there. We will see.
You’re thinking way ahead of the other guys that’s a hell of an idea being able to place that ball joint on that old Chevy truck and GMC. I love the way you engineer stuff so that it lasts a long time and it’s clean. Good job.
If they don't take time to do it right then it will take time to do it over. Respect for your work. Really enjoy watching y'all work together and the shit you give one another. Looking forward to the next video.
You always go above and beyond on customers rides my friend...just shows what kind of person you are...just hearing you say "I can't let that go like that!" Says everything! Locochone😁👍❤️👏👏👏👏
Nice work Mr B also good to see a GM grill in your shop just saying .........................................................................................................................
Hey Mr. Bello's checking your vids out aca en Seattle carnal dices que eres original de Mexico y no hablas Espanol orale holme come on he he right on brother just messing with carnalito good job u do good solid work bro keep it real watchando your onda u got mad skills bro I enjoy your content and also 👍 for camera cat fo sho
we don't all have air tools at our disposal or welding and cutting torches or computerized plasma cutters, so we do with the best we have at the time. Granted if I came into some money and could afford half that stuff/tools, I would then bring the truck back in and rebuild the parts You are doing now
