Dialing In The Rear Panel On The Sweet Heart Roadster - Body Work Coming Soon!!! 

I'm glad moon was there to help. I would have liked to see how the swoop up was made.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Ah, perfection! Not only the superb metalworking, but also the great video presentation! Iron Trap Garage is without controversy number one in the RU-vid options! Thank you Matt and Mike! Champions!

The back of the roadster looks better without the bumper. The bumper hides the great looking tail lights, IMHO.

Technical videos GOOD, that slicing and filling is a neat trick that I can try here! Thanks for the ride Matt. Nice work as usual.

It’s all in the details … great work!!

I can see why you were dreading that. Sooo much work for such a small part of the car. It looks great but without the video no one knows how much effort goes into making that small part of the car look so good. Thanks For sharing.

Sometimes brute force work is required to produce such small appearing effects. However your investment in time has yielded a very nice rear panel that has changed from an amateur effort to a professional result. The gaps looked horrible like someone didn't know what they were doing. In spite of all the louvers trying to deflect attention the eye just focused on those gaps and it did look bad. Now it looks great! I agree the quarters need plenty of help. Troweling tons of body filler isn't the answer. If you were going to do that you might as well get a fiberglass body. Nope old school craftsmanship is the winner here. That is what makes your cars so neat. You do it right the way it was done in the past and recreate really cool metalwork. Thanks for sticking to your standards and doing this car correctly. Those who know what it takes appreciate how hard this effort really is! This car will be stellar when it is finished.

Great video Matt, ........one of the best things about the channel is the variation. Lets have a 'Walk around', of all your cars..............................I'm gagging for that '3 window' in the background, been so long forgotten it's name. Lot's of Love as always,....................... Reading, England.

I LOVE the Sweetheart Roadster! Glad to see you back on it!!!! Your attention to detail is amazing Matt!

I definitely liked how the passenger side came out , so I am glad you did the driver's side over again , for excellent results . I guess this is what you were talking about with those rear quarters being pretty badly dented . Wow . That will be a lot of work . Looking forward to that post . I really like this project , always have . The best takes time . I'm glad you kept those little curve ups at the edges ! Nice job , Matt !

Thank you Matt for the update on the Sweetheart Roadster ! She's coming long very well ! Looking forward to seeing more updates on the Sweetheart Roadster !

Looks so much better. Nice job.

Great seeing you work on this car again. Excited to see how it turns out in the end.

Great craftsmanship.

Fun seeing it in person. Great visit. Thanks.

Do overs are never fun. But it was worth it. Car is coming along nicely.😊

The stereo I had as a teen ran those tail lights that pulsed to the music with Christmas tree lights..

Great work. Bit of a tease not giving us a better look at that rear arch, post plenishing hammer.

I am first again. Good job looks good. Thanks for showing us how to fix it

I love this in bare metal !

Old school would be to braze it solid, then you would have cut it out to fix the cracked corner seams later anyway.

Nice work Daddy-O ~ love this car...tough love on that rear panel. I still totally see this car in a late '50s George Cerny-esque Metallic Pearl Burnt Orange ~ ready for the 1960 Autorama Show Circuit !

Rework sucks but sometimes you have to do it wrong to know how to do it right.

The old OCD kicks in 😂😂 nice job Matt 👍

I sure like that planishing hammer. :) I have similar skills to you. When I see something like this, I question why I would ever consider a glass body. I know that's a complex statement but metal workers are just that. :)

Looking great!

Oje step at a time. Good work!

Fantastic metal work! Love the Sweet Heart and where you have been taking her! AMBR!!! I know it's a bit away, but wondering if you have a color in your noggin (me thinks you have it already figured out)? Still amazes me that the cast off nerf bar from this car is on the front of my '46! Go Iron Trap, keep moving forward!

Nice work Matt

Most figure if you can't get yer foot thru it close enough but good panel fit does go to the next appearance level. Car sure is asking for flame paint job.

Long time follower ,enjoy very much, have a name for podcast maybe! TRAP CHAT. Cheers from Australia, Surf Coast, Victoria

I love all the videos So keep making all of them

The metal work is always interesting, does the TIG welding not created warping?

I know you did the truck awhile ago but I bought a pilothouse dodge. I know you did one awhile back. Is it on the Eastwood channel or on Irontrap? Figured I'd ask before searching around. Keep up the good work I've been watching for a long time.

Lot of time & work in this Sweetheart......

thx i like this bodywork videos

What is the plan for the Caddy V-8?

Why don’t u leave it bare like that just clear coat it and polished would look cool 😎

Ole dude get'n more work in oh his ride in 20 mins than I have on mine in 20 weeks. . .lol PLEASE leave it bare metal with a shot of Poppys Patina clear !

One thing this episode taught me is that I am a heathen!

👍👍👍

58 chevy taillights?

After all this metalsmithing it seems a shame to cover it up with paint! I vote for clear coat only, lol.

👌🏼⛽️

What air pressure were you running on the Planishing hammer?

Be great to have a clock so we can see how long it takes.some think this takes 10 minutes.

Hows Mikes car coming along?

Nice Video. #STAYSAFE #PHILLYPHILLY 🇺🇸

Wait you mean it's not a show that cranks out a "car" project every week. 😒😒😒..ive built a 54 and a 55 Chev truck. The hardest to get done is the last 25%.sometimes it takes years. Ask me how I know

Wow you're so picky about a perfectly shitty hot rod!

while i don't usually care for videos that are an hour long, or longer, this one easily could have been and been a great video on working the metal. i'm so tired of the videos from Tommy Pickles and his metal "work". i know this one was short but you could have made a longer video that would have been much more educational, entertaining and inspiring
