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

I`d rather watch someone do bodywork than do it myself.

@waynedavis7245 28 дней назад

Me too . I have to be in the mood to do body work, but I'm rarely in the mood! Lol

@longjohn77 28 дней назад

Rarely in the mood? You must be related to my wife😂@@waynedavis7245

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 26 дней назад

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

@tstuart7333 28 дней назад

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 28 дней 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.

I hate body work myself, but l love watching it in fast speed video!!!! Thanks Brent ! Love watching you!

@mccornchip 28 дней назад

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!

@retiredbutnotdead9929 28 дней назад

Bodywork is an art that I can sit and watch for hours….😁

@garywheeler27 28 дней назад

Shouts to wife, " Hey, Brent here on RU-vid has just called me a weirdo !" "Whaddya mean," you agree !!!

@TheCrackerBox 28 дней назад

I think it would look so good satin black and gloss black on the trim and Body. Just my opinion. Thanks for another , Brother !

@Chevypowered5766 28 дней назад

Hey Brent, the body really straightened up great and looks clean with that skim coat of Bondo on it. Can’t wait to see the rest of the cab and bed skim coated. Great progress. Later

@AirborneMediaScotland 28 дней назад

I love doing bodywork as I am a panel beater ,I just love pushing myself to finish the repair to as good as new

@todddenio3200 28 дней назад

You've done an amazing job in a relatively short time compared to a lot of custom builds. I wish I could get down to Back to the 50's to see it in person but health issues won't allow me to travel the 250 miles south to go to it. Looking forward to seeing it completed here though.

@veetwin75 28 дней 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

@aceadman 28 дней назад

I like watching the process. ALL the elements are interesting and you’re so good at sharing it all. Just the right amount of explanation, perfect timelapsing, and excellent work. The metal work, the body work, the electrical, the mechanical, it’s all great to watch…when YOU are the one doing it. Thanks as always. 👍👍😊

@DennisMurphey 28 дней назад

When we get the stand back view and see the whole truck, then squint real tight like to show it all one color its a DAMN Good Looking truck the details you put into the metal work are really going to stand out! Great Effort!

@robertbennett9243 28 дней назад

looking good in bondo. Primer then paint. Can't wait till it's painted. You are so talented in every ting you do.

@bruceaskin9645 27 дней 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.

@shanewright6958 28 дней назад

Another good one 👍👍

@clevelandmaker386 27 дней назад

Well call me a weirdo...... cause I love the process... I learn a lot from these videos...!!! Gives me the confidence to do it myself

@EdOfTheNorth 28 дней 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 27 дней 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!!

@RandyH-qf3dc 27 дней 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.

@user-fd4kn5eh2u 28 дней назад

It was interesting to watch the bodywork because as you filled and sanded, I recalled how you crafted the bumper, then the headlights, then the articulated hood. It made me realize-wow-you got a lot of work in that rig and it has some great features.!

@davegallucci9327 28 дней назад

Brent , it's all coming out fine! One step at a time!

@terryeustice5399 27 дней назад

Don’t think anyone enjoys body work. But it’s going to be awesome. Thanks for sharing! 💯👊👍

@jessehermosillo8116 28 дней назад

Hi Brent like the compete look of the happy days truck roadster, it makes me smile with every video, I'm all in on your styling vibe,wow can't wait to see the finished bad boy.Brent take your time all will be fine, just like the rest of your toys. Love your work ethics,take care. .Jesse

@stuartfletcher2378 28 дней назад

Welcome to the dust bowl , I also did not take well to sanding , I did not wear a mask , I'm paying for that now . The finished product was all about how well you sanded, all the scratches no matter how small will jump right out when the paint goes on , Damned if you do more damned if you dont . The build is getting close to completion and everyone is going to judge no matter what !! Stuart in Ontario ..

@davidsauter13 27 дней назад

I dont mind watching the bodywork, I always learn something, I watch each and every video.. I learned about the resin trick in the body filler from bad Chad's video, but it's cool to see others doing it....

@stanleymartin1613 28 дней назад

Great video!! Your music choices are a cool addition to your videos. Enjoyed watching ✌️ 😎

@robertlemoi7919 28 дней назад

I can tell by the gleam in your eyes and the big smile on your face that body work is your favorite thing to do. So as they say in England Lets crack on. Will check back with you again later.

@grahamparr3933 27 дней назад

You might think there is nothing to see in bodywork, but actually there is a lot to learn about the preparation and the use of body filler, I have seen some bad bodywork where it looks like a blind man’s done it, it is always useful to see how things are done properly.

If you need a cleaning service to come a couple times a week Brent to tidy up the garage, I might be willing to move 1800 miles to the northwest!😆

Excellent work my friend I follow you from Brazil but I'm Italian and for us cars are steel lovers a hug from Brazil 👋👍👍🤗

@geoffreymills9932 28 дней назад

It's all polyester resin based so yes, you can do it, bondo is just mixed with talcum powder type of filler where the glass is more water proof, nice work Brent

@daleking8529 28 дней назад

Another bite! Put your Bondo in the paint shaker before using, makes it smooooth!!! Take care

@davegallucci9327 28 дней назад

Good idea!

@briankinnear7461 23 дня назад

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 27 дней 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.

@robertlemoi7919 28 дней 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.

@laurensmith1828 27 дней назад

Quite the transformation. Beautifully done!

@fixinstuff9662 28 дней назад

@EvanHofmeyer 27 дней назад

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

@UKDrew 28 дней назад

Awesome as Always.... You Always make something Nice :D The music when you started sanding was Hilarious.. Forgot to say If you put a Tarp on the floor before sanding, so much easier to clear up...

@michaelblaszkiewicz7283 28 дней назад

I don't know if you have talked colors, but Gulf Blue (VW) would look great in my opinion.

It might be easier to paint the box off the truck? That's the way I always seen truck's done. But to each his own. Looking great Brent body work is what everyone hates to do.

@TCW-hw6iw 28 дней 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 28 дней 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...
