In this video we start the body work process on our 49 GMC and try and get the cab a little more straight. We also repair the wipers in the Chevy Napco that stopped working due to some bad welding haha

Don't you just love Brent's descriptive ways! Hates bodywork yet he sure does do a nice job of it. Moving along really nice. The efforts, time and hard labour are sure paying you back. Stay safe and enjoy.

@robertlemoi7919 4 месяца назад

A carpenter will always tell you that the installation of moldings hides a multitude of sins, as plastic does the same for body men. Look how hard you worked on putting together and welding the metal. Just that alone deserves a finish product that is second to none.

Brent, we know you don’t love body work. But like everything else you do, your body work, especially your bondo application, is done super well with great technique. I love watching it, especially in time lapse with y’alls cool music!

@veetwin75 4 месяца назад

I love this truck, I would take this beauty over a modern 50K truck, I sure hope you keep this truck when finished and enjoy it and drive it with pride with all the work and imagination of your fabrication skills that you have put into it, til next time!! later

@RandyH-qf3dc 4 месяца назад

As many have mentioned, I hate body work with bonds myself. However it is a little more enjoyable watching somebody else getting covered in gray dust. LOL. Bottom line a necessary evil and gets you closer. Glad your Napco truck was an easy fix for you. You and Esther enjoy the rest of your day.

I've done lot's and lot's of bondo work in my younger day's a job no one wanted to do, but all the year's I figured out how to make the job go faster and easier to get it done. Because shop's are always pushing for time to get it done and the painter's want it done right so people can say that's a great paint job. The body guy is always for gotten about. The paint job is only going to look as your prep work before paint.

@robertlemoi7919 4 месяца назад

@@snoopu2601 agree with you 100%. I speak from experience in the auto body repair trade.

@terrencebuller7676 4 месяца назад

Hello Brent, I know it's a lot of work, but you are doing a great job and when done you are going to have a real Jewel. Take care and stay safe. 👍

@bruceaskin9645 4 месяца назад

I would rather watch body work than actually do it myself. Which is why my own car is still in need of paint 5 years on. On the plus side seeing your vehicle get finished is a bonus. Not many youtubers actually do finished.

@northcentraltransfer1851 4 месяца назад

Good to hear you are coming to Back to the 50`s. Will be good to see you there no matter what you drive.

@EdOfTheNorth 4 месяца назад

The truck is looking amazing. Your body work is just as good as anyone else's body work and in the end it will be a great hit at the shows. Thanks for the body work video. LOL.

@charlesjones750 4 месяца назад

You are such a craftsman I could watch any video you do, at least you edit them! Thanks for that. Sure hope you get the truck ready for the show, I know it's gonna be a head turner!!

Bodywork can be a real p-i-t-a. It looks good at this point but I look forward to seeing more. Be safe and stay well.

@snoopu2601 4 месяца назад

I've done a whole lotta body/bondo work took me many year's to master or make it easier for me to get it right. I just cover the whole side and run the long board. I remember a friend and I made a long board out of a 2x4 to do a Cadillac panel's. It came out car show the owner was very happy. My point is some time's you have to make your own tool's to get the job done as fast as possible. The paint job is only going to look as your prep work before paint. To those that don't know.

@EvanHofmeyer 4 месяца назад

For a mud mixing board. Try a handox. The kind builders use to plaster walls. It works great.

@marcusmaddenov2451 4 месяца назад

@robertlemoi7919 4 месяца назад

You can add the resin because that is what the product is made with, add it is not porous like plastic and putting it over welds is the best thing to do.

@TCW-hw6iw 4 месяца назад

I watched Bad Chad use the resin trick, and as I was making some custom fenders for a motorcycle, I gave it a try. It worked great, and as you say, if you sand before it goes rock hard, it's nice to work withh. I don't do a lot of body type work, so the additional open time was a boon for and old hacker like myself. Iuse an old drywall hawk for mixing and applying the filler, its a bit awkward but its durable, and if you forget to clean it right away some acetone and a little sanding its as ood as new. I liked the frankenstein look of your build, and probably would have drove it as is.

@randymack2222 4 месяца назад

I feel for you brother! I really hate sanding body filler... Specifically when it's completely hardened. Another complaint is if you mix incorrectly and make air bubbles, and then sand into them ... Grrrr...

@franksgarage8551 4 месяца назад

Was at swap meet, guess you were in early and gone. Mind you, we didnt hang out long. Did the walk around and picked a few things. Was a little cool with the wind. Amazing how much a difference a layer of mud makes. I messed up on Studebaker. Drivers door b pillar moved. I have to cut it apart🤬. I found when filler sits too long, finer paper takes it off easier. So if im trailering my Fargo, can i divide my fuel mileage in half seeing as two trucks are travelling the same distance? 1/2 way to Drumheller now. Car show saturday..

Try heating your sanding pad with a heat gun before pulling old sand paper off.

@frankschwartz7405 4 месяца назад

Well, most body fillers are made with polyester resin (fiberglass resin) and something...so those people who say you can't mix it....flunked chemistry.

Hi Brent ,the rear wheeles don't look centered in the wheel well,why don't you make a set of skirts for the rear and it probably wouldn't be noticable.

@HalfassKustoms 4 месяца назад

it's probably because the truck is aired out.

@mikewilliams4297 4 месяца назад

I my have missed it but am wondering what grits of sandpaper you used. The initial sanding of metal did you use 80 grit for a good tooth for adhesion of glass and filler or finer. I need to know these things so I can properly critique you and tell you your doing it wrong. I’M JOKING ABOUT THAT ! But seriously I would like to know everything and you are petty good about explaining your process I just think some of you’re viewers like to know the little things also. Love your content! God Bless. 😉👍

@HalfassKustoms 4 месяца назад

Yeah 80 would be the minimum. I try 40 or so the rougher, the better in my mind.
