Cab Repair Without A Welder? It Can Be Done! - Trucks! S8, E9 

It's like WWE and This Old House had a baby that decided to be a mechanic.

Jesse “The Autobody” Ventura! 💪🏼

I like the method used to repair the rust without welding. Very, very nice work.

I like the way he puts the truck on a hoist and works comfortable.

These guys make it look easy, the 1 guy seems like his soft and passive, the other guy seems like his loud and aggressive. Hahaha

hey mr clean you dont have to yell

Pretty Slick! I've learned ALLOT over the years from watching Kevin. Here's one more.

5:07. 😂😂😂 The contrast. "...PLENTY OF TIME TO SET YOUR PATCH." [passes the gun] "thank you."

Awesome 👍 job guys I appreciate all your Tips and Tricks Videos keep up with all your Build's/Works 😎🥃👌🤙

Damn, I was hoping something was going to go wrong so that guy would pick that truck up and throw it through a wall

Looks good however, over time you will see a perfect line of where the patch outline is due to expansion and contraction. The panel bond and glue expand and contract at different rates. There is a time and place for panel bonding but but hints are not the place.

It's funny how this guy using the mask while putting the filler, not when send in the fiberglass, good job 👏

Magnets, sanding blocks, glue, cure lamp, air compressor, cut off wheel, clamps, sandpaper, sanding disc, etc.. going to cost as much as welder. LOL

I’m doing a 50” long lower half quarter panel replacement on a Chevy Cavalier using panel bond and a contoured backer strip cut out of a junk yard piece. I’ll glue the backer strip in first like you did, but use Pre-drilled holes and wood screws to clamp it, instead of clamps. Then remove the screws and dab the holes from behind to make a waterproof bond. This method causes zero distortion and no pinholes like welding does. Great to see someone else use this method. I know skeptics will say that you can’t help but get ghost outlines and color bleeding from any type of bonding glue. What does the patch look like over a year later?

Had to laugh at the Vice Grips😂Think you could fit in another pair?

You can get a cheap flux-core welder at Harbor Freight for around $150, yes you’ll need other stuff like a welding helmet and some gloves but get a welder and learn how to stick metal together, it’s a capability you’ll find very valuable. 😎

That $30 panel bond is now $153 cdn now!

GENIUSES AT WORK WOW LOVE THE PAINT JOB AND THE METHODICAL WAY YOU GUYS WORK ABSOLUTE GENIUS ,BLESS YOU GUYS .

those cool billet peddle covers look slippery as fuck

metal pedal covers? that ought to be fun when wet.

excellent video guys!!!

It's like a drywall patch with metal. Excellent 👍

Everyone is talking about Stone Lukewarm Steve El Paso, but I'm just learning that comically sized arrows aren't just from cartoons. 5:59

I use Panel Bond to do these types of repair. It can be sanded to shape too.

"WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO A HACK JOB" proceeds to do a "decent" hack job!

6:02 😂😂 "cool! we can take a break!" "YEAH!! AND THEN WERE GONNA SHOW YOU HOW TO FIX THOSE PATCHES!!"

This was neat to see how to repair the rust section without a welder

The 'backing brackets' made from the scrap panel will do the trick, but in my experience.. Using a flange-tool works perfectly. I've probably done a few hundred repairs that way.

Carbody glue works find. ,don't forget to protect the innside.

Cool to see Macho Man's son doing car restoration!

you know your good when you don't even get dirty.

"This has been a Vince McMahon production"

Not sure what they were thinking when they hired Paul for this show

How about links to the products in the description? 🤷

I prefer the welding method but very interesting

When upper management hires the voice of the Kool-Aid man. Annoying

4-6mm thick primer with 3 to 4 coats? 4-6 mils per coat maybe.

"A good welder starts at about $800": Me with my Harbor Freight welder: 😭😭😅

Thanks

Hell, for $10,000 you Could have Fixed Up a Junk-Yard LS and had Money Left to Turbo that Thing! HAHAHA!

I wonder what ever happened to that truck? This was filmed a while back

Always thought someone would manufacture some truck cab corners and rocker panel covers that could be painted with a spray can and then glued on. It would cover the ugly rust and holes, wouldn’t fit flush but would look good enough for a daily driver truck, and not break the bank!

Now I know the face behind Kermit the Frog's voice. Over the Top bud.

wow bill Goldberg, love to see next show, when Goldberg tells us WHO'S NEXT!!

Um, subscribed, obviously. Who directed this? Fantastic!

Professional work guys... Praise YHWH 🙏✌️👍🙌👑❤️

GWWAAAAA!

there is always going to be snobs who get mad when people don't weld in panels. It is like they get disgusted when they see people doing any other type of repair that does not involve welding. Not every fucking car rust/panel repair needs to be welded in. After you do all the needed prep work, rust removal, glue a panel on, and fiberglass, bondo, and paint over it, it aint coming off, its not going to just fall off after driving down the road lol, I dont know where people get that Idea from. If you let it get that rusted out again to the point where it needs to be repaired again, then that is on you, NOT THE REPAIR!

Why does this guy remind me of a cross between Goldberg and Steve Austin? Lol.

I don't get why for what seemed like 3 minutes of audio was cut from this. I get it. The music likely claimed by some label no one has ever heard of. But geez.....

That cab corner job looked easy and high-quality. It actually looked better than welding. Is there any reason not to do this?

$300 worth of vise grips...

Ok, This was filmed back in 2006 . You can tell by how young Kevin looks. Dont think you could get a decent welding back then for 150 bucks. Also structural body panel adhesives have come a long ways in 18 years for everyone knocking it.

Wow guys tremendous job that truck looks awesome

Will you guys please post up the second chance silverado videos?

Ohh Yeah Brother 🤘

Paul looks and sounds like Stone Cold Steve Austin.

That dude should rip his shirt off and flex, then say 'oooooooooh yaaaaaaaaa' . So instead of all that, just get spray expand foam, let it just go everywhere and harden, cut and bondo, paint, done. Like 1 hour tops.

Super😊

When did the pro wrestler get hired?

ME: Mom! I want some Stone Cold! Mom: We have Stone Cold at home. This: Stone Cold at home.

Might as well showed us spray on bondo too. Lolz

How long would a repair like this last ? Six months, a year, ten years

With a body on frame car, I see no objections using this fix. Even on airplanes and Lexus they use glue!

Just get your mig out and do it right, different materials contract and expand over time and you'll see it.

4-6mm thick after several coats??? Seem mighty thick.

Can someone tell me what the brand and model of that full face mask supplied air respirator is?

Does this work on top of paint? There's a 5" round hole on the floor of my van I'm trying to figure out how to fix it because the floor is corrugated. :( This hole was cut out of sheer laziness by a shop person installing a diesel heater in my van. It's going to be hard to go to bare metal because of the corrugation. I was just thinking of using panel adhesive for a piece on top of the hole, since it's hidden so it doesn't have to look perfect.

Did he say primer ends up 4-6mm thick after 3 coats? : / That sounds incorrect.......

Why is the big boi yelling like a fool? Calm down dude and just talk normal. Will make it hard to watch anything more because i geel like im being screamed at and it grates on me

I think you forgot boys Peel back the interior panel and expose the inside of that repair Spray a little bit of rubberized undercoating on it Cause it’s not it can rust from the inside out

1st for a change, good job fellas :)

I feel jipped we didn't see him do a cycle of roids and workout

Yes you can fix whole in body without welded it's called bonddoe 😀 I Just wouldn't do it. Cheap O

I saw the shot of the 672 clamps and said NOPE. I'd rather go buy a HBF welder and take my chances haha.

I never knew perry Saturn was on here😂

WHY'S HE SHOUTING!!!!!!!

Good welder starts at $800? Apparently you have never heard of meth.

What I want to know is will it crack over time?

You should have went all the way down to the pinch WELD. With the patch.

Wait a tick! Buying a welder is not in the budget, you can fix it in your driveway, then they put the truck on a lift, yes when we buy or rent our homes a lift in the driveway is always part of the budget, right!? I would wager that there's a lot more folk's like myself with one or more welding solutions and no lift.

What did those body parts from LMC cost?

Can he not talk only shout WTF?

I've been putting patch panels inside Chevy S10, for the last 25 years. Don't do any thing they said here. In fact, this is probably the worst demonstration of using patch panels I've ever seen. I can't believe they actually published this. These guys should just stick to changing parts.

I got dizzy and lost hope at 5:40

6:06 😂😂😂😂😂

4 to 6mm thick ?????!!!!!! Bull! You would think the producers of these how to’s would check that the information given is correct.

Just find someone to weld it. 🤪

Should’ve just welded it

Blocking down that fiber glass filler with no mask?!!!!!! Brave man.

Was Paul in the WWE

"Cab cobbling without a welder"

What’s this guys problem? This is auto repair, not WWE wrestling!

9:21 4 to 6mm thick..... are you high.

I am not rich, so I would have made the patch out of a scrap panel.

Just buy a welder with the money you save not buying the glue

Stacy David lost all his hair and talks like he is constipated , Someone should start a go-fund-me for this guy , I wonder if he will buy back Copperhead or Sargent Rock first ?

The Walmart Stone Cold is annoying af.

wait... a 3700lb glue is "about as strong" as a 37,000-77,000psi steel weld? Uhm.. No.

What size adhesive gun do you need to apply epoxy?
