After mocking up the dash layout and installing the steering box, Matt decided it was time to tackle the custom glove boxes he envisioned. Starting off with a wooden buck, Matt pounds out two glove box doors. Once those are completed Matt moves onto to creating the boxes themselves, and a flange to weld onto the back side of the dash. Once everything is welded up Matt cuts into his dash and installs the boxes. The overall look of two glove boxes is very classy and perfect for the Sweetheart Roadster.

Good to see the young apprentice, back in the shop, soaking up the knowledge, put a smile on this old face.

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thanks! He’s gonna go places if he sticks with it! My brother has taught him a ton!

@CapnBubbaa 2 года назад

Reminds me of the time I spent with my dad working on projects, my dad has been gone over 40 years, this brought GREAT memories...

@geofo60 2 года назад

Same here, I'm now older than my dad was when he passed forty years ago. Time flies, make the most of it, we're not going to get a second chance.

@Ecosse57 2 года назад

count me as a fan of the dual glove boxes and it was cool to see how they come together. major kudos for having a kid in the shop learning the ropes.

@chuckschultz7028 2 года назад

The longest lasting part of this project is teaching that young man. He will be remembering that experience for the rest of his life.

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

That’s my nephew! He’s soaking up all the knowledge he can!

@patmclean1951 2 года назад

The small details that take most time sometimes make the greatest difference!

@ajperotti2551 2 года назад

Looking good as usual. Great to see that young man interested in learning how to work metal.

@damienhammond6449 2 года назад

Driver side glovebox is a winner, adds some class! Good to see you having time for the young lad, hope to see more of him learning. Brilliant work Matt, thanks. Cheers

@chrisclark4813 2 года назад

Really like the Dash, great filming Luke, lucky young guy learning the shrinker, best lesson.... take time and stare at your project. Love from Reading, England.

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thanks Chris!

@katsumiskytower8714 2 года назад

he's right, just stare at it and think how to make it move the way you want, avoid folds in corners and work the metal slowly it will do what you want eventually. think like you're making armor!

@brians2758 2 года назад

This right here is a lot of mens/dads dream. Saving history, rebuilding it, learning, teaching, hard work, and making something. And then be able to drive it afterwards is a huge plus. Plus doing that with your kid(s), friends and family. 🤙🏻🤘🏻

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thanks Brian!

@alseidel5622 2 года назад

Can never have too much storage in shot Rod roadster. Best part was seeing the young man learning skills and work within. Very nice.

@Carl09of09 2 года назад

It's great to see a young man with tools in his hand rather than a video game controller or cell phone! ✌🏼😊🇺🇸

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

He’s a good one that’s for sure!

@1954shadow 2 года назад

Highly satisfying, watching Matt do sheet metal forming, whilst, sipping coffee in the morning.

@sexysammij1 2 года назад

I love watching him take a piece of flat sheet metal and make something like a glovebox from scratch

@ravinloon58 2 года назад

Here is me thinking 'where were you when I was growing up' I really would have loved to spend time watching and helping... and then I realised... Matt, you were not even born back then. These trade crafts have been handed down for generations and a lifetime of shaping metal produces master craftsmen. There is no APP for that, no On-Line course... just hours at the bench.

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

We agree! There’s no replacement for hands on learning and experience In the trades!

@bobgaylord8883 2 года назад

Best part of today's video was seeing the young lad interested in learning new skills and working on old cars. There is hope for the hobby !! Kudos for teaching him. The dash is coming along great and love the double glove boxes,

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thanks Bob! He’s definitely ahead of the curve for even guys twice his age!

@thomasjmaxx 2 года назад

Ron Covell would be proud of you for your hammer forming. What a great custom idea and great that you showed us how you did everything and also bringing some younger people into metal working

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thanks Tom

@jimandlinsnow7002 2 года назад

Nailed it. As others have said it’s great to see your nephew spending time in the shop.

@brettwilkinson8904 2 года назад

Good for you Matt. Showing the young man your skills. I had a guy like you show me the ropes years ago I think of Henry every time I get in a pinch.

@svenunland6501 2 года назад

Matt, the driver side glove box is an awesome idea. It's one of that little Details, that make this car so special.

@cgulden 2 года назад

Great to see the young man working with you, hope he sticks around and learns something.

@michaelreynolds1904 2 года назад

Not sure who your young helper was but he took direction well! Matt, I was most impressed by your self correction from "you stretched" to "we stretched" the metal too thin. Keep the kid interested and hands on!

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thanks Michael! That’s my nephew and he’s a quick learner!

@screwthecrewofpoliticians8921 2 года назад

New blood, hang in there young man. Your about to become the new iron worker. This is great.

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

He’s already quite a skilled mechanic! He’s got a sharp mind and will go far! My brother has been teaching him loads!

@michaelguinn5736 2 года назад

Morning Matt!!! It's your ride! Build it the way you want! Karl Fisher(make it kustom) does some awesome hammer form!! Who is the young hot rodder? It's great that the younger generation has a interest! Y'all did a nice job, I like seeing progress!!

@charlesyoung7436 2 года назад

You are spot on, Michael! Bringing a youngster into the hobby is an awesome thing to undertake. Matt might do something as simple as gluing felt pads to the bottom of the glove boxes to keep small hard objects from rolling around.

@TrashcanGarage 2 года назад

Metal fab is where it's at. Metal shop in high school was my favorite class. We even did sand casting. I can still smell that shop!

@672egalaxie6 2 года назад

@Jemini553 2 года назад

no suppresses here your craftsman ships speaks golden volumes, and as for the apprentice i pray that he is really looking forward to really learning to do his future own show ,way to go Mat

@johnclauser7392 2 года назад

Hey Matt the dashboard looks great.... It's nice to see you teach in the young ones... My wife taught French and German for 33 years and she really liked to see you teaching that was cool!!!!

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thank you!

@Red81Camaro 2 года назад

Looks really cool. The skills that you are passing along to that young car dude will help him throughout life. These are moments in his life that he will never forget, great job Matt.

@ericwhiting100 2 года назад

I like how the dash is shaping up. If you limited the door to open 90* then you could dimple the inner structure for a drink cup (hold you milkshake at the drive in). Good to see your young apprentice getting some work in too. Looking forward to seeing his skills develop.

@jimknarr4209 2 года назад

Dash looks great. And passing your knowledge on to the young man brings back a lot of memories of my uncle who taught me. You are doing a great job.

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

@wayneforbes7671 2 года назад

Nice work on the custom Sweet Heart dash. May I suggest you line the inside with a heavy cloth, like felt or maybe even leather to dampen any rattles from the contents. Great to see an apprentice in the garage!

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Yea I was thinking something like that or using the spray “flock” like factory used

@BrianSmart1959 2 года назад

Driver side glove box is very handy to have. It's nice to be able to grab something without having to reach across the dash. I've got two glove boxes in my 68 Riley Elf, although they are in a wooden dash.

@christoffer1973 2 года назад

Let those young ones try! Great to see someone that let kids try. I think many kids would love to learn, but doesn't have the opportunity.

@chesterlauck734 2 года назад

The young one in the shop working on the stretcher reminded me of my boys hanging around the shop helping me work on cars. They both took it farther and will always have that experience to fall back on in the future. Another great video and I love the dual glove boxes that look like they grew there. Thanks

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Great progress! Awesome to see the youngin' seemingly take a liking to the craft! He did quite well! Looking fantastic, Matt and Crew!

@gordonstroup882 2 года назад

I like the 2 glove box door design for the dash. Here's an idea, how about the next time you make another door, cut notches around the corners, nothing fancy, just straight in with the band saw, so when it's time to bend them over, they will lay over each other and make it so much easier to form the corners. Love the Sunday morning shows, it's a great start to the day. Have a great rest of your day Matt. Tell everyone Hey. Y'all seem to have a good working together fitment, where you can see what's going on and are able to make suggestions for one another and make it work out as you're working on whatever at the time. You like feed off of each other and kinda know what each other may be thinking about to find a fix to the situation. I know, I'm rambling on, but you always say if we have a suggestion, to let you know. Okay, okay, Later Matt. 👋😃👍

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Thanks for watching Gordon. I prefer to hammer shrink the corner when possible. Even if I do what said you I have to the weld the cuts up and sand them smooth. Takes the same amount of time regardless. Just how I prefer to do it when possible

@richardsiddon610 2 года назад

@MrGixxer1300r 2 года назад

Getting ready to start working with my 13 year old grandson on some antique motorcycles. I think I'm as excited as he is, it is great to see you working with a young one as well. As far as the glove boxes go I like them I wouldn't put a door on the driver side one because of steering wheel clearance, but either way it will still look good, and be a useful addition to the car.

@IronTrapGarage 2 года назад

Yes I’m very happy to see my nephew take interest in this stuff! Glove box clears the steering wheel just fine.
