Brent .. when they say drive the wheels off it...... we didn't mean to take it seriously!!!!😂

@oldschool1993 Месяц назад

That's the classic case of " I'll do that later" just putting lugs on by hand and then weeks later finding out the hard way. My lesson was on my first motor rebuild as an apprentice. I did everything so carefully and by the book on a 4cylinder MG motor. Got it all done and in the car and it ran perfect. The customer came and got the car and 2 days later he called and said the engine seized. Car was towed back and not a drop of oil in it- during my rebuild I had put the drain plug in the pan by hand and then cleaned and painted it, and when I put it together I just never checked it. After a couple days of driving the plug eventually came out and the customer lost all the oil. I had to pay the cost and do the labor to repair the engine and from that day on, I never put any bolt in by hand without fully tightening it and I never stopped for lunch halfway through an operation.

Brent i feel your pain i had a 57 Chevrolet 2 door i just finished putting my new rebuild motor in it took it for a rip same thing happened to me but the wheel ripped the fender bad this happen to me in 1973 just fix and move on love your videos Brent

@aceadman Месяц назад

I really like the way this is turning out, Brent. It’s got some very cool lines. You’ve had probably more than your fair share of ups and downs on it, but it is definitely coming together in a really good way. Thanks as always. You upload so much more than most of the other guys I watch and its absolutely fantastic. 😊👍👍

@stuartfletcher2378 Месяц назад

Body work is the most thankless job , Its never perfect , nor is the car as it comes from the factory . You do a terrific job on your builds and know when to say enough . You have a one off body style , created in your mind , built with you own hands and it is a thing of beauty . Thank you for including us in your tasks to see this truck to completion , God Bless you and yours , keep smiling , Stuart in Ontario ..

@snoopu2601 Месяц назад

If your new to this channel you need to go back and watch some of Brent's older video's of what this Truck looked like before he brought it into the shop. You'll be amazed on how much work went into it in such little time. 👍🏾

@SkaterStimm Месяц назад

I love how the wheel falling off caused damage that would have been the biggest damage possible, which proved your design is good.

@briankinnear7461 Месяц назад

Great to the Essex as a roller. It's got a great stance. The roadster pickup is looking better and better. Bodywork is a tedious job and often difficult to focus on. Having these side projects is a good thing. Look forward to more. Be safe and stay well.

@terryeustice5399 Месяц назад

Brent you’re just a gem. Jumped on the fender. Got it fixed. Thank you for your varsity sticking with the body work you detest so much. Great video! Thanks for sharing. 💯👊👍💕

Brent your videos are great, never boring ! And I watched them all ! Your way to take things with a positive attitude, for me it's a good motivation. So keep doing what you do, and I thank you for that. It's probably not the easiest job doing videos on RU-vid. Ill be happy for you when you'll be done with the GMC. Later 🙏!

@oldtown6240 Месяц назад

I like this truck. It has come a long way from March 2021. The Essex has a great look.

@CSmith-oz4wp Месяц назад

Definitely not boring, I sat through the whole video and didn’t get tried of “you” 😷 doing the sanding. But boy do I need a nap know. 😆. I’ll be here next time to help you again. Thanks Brent. Like, share and tell your friends, if you have any. 😳

Great video I had the same thing happen to my 55 first series truck thank god I had not painted yet. It seemed like an eternity getting the second series 55 truck ready for paint just to put decent paint job on it . I know how you feel Brent but it's worth it. It's a real joy to see this beautiful truck come together. God bless

@jamesruiz1776 Месяц назад

A couple restoration brothers ..who taught me how to use primer straight out of the can to fill small stuff indentions ..etc ..it's more flexible than bondo ..this was in the 70s they showed me this... we was restoring a 32 Chevy dump truck then and a 57 Ford f150 step side p/u..

You saw my comment on the last video, where I suggested dumping exhaust in the fenders in front of the tires. Win. Essex is a roller, great work there. I don't mind the bodywork and sanding, I have done it a few times.

Panel bond adhesive is awesome stuff , I installed a fiberglass hood scoop on a metal hood with it and used no bondo and it was still great condition after 6yrs , couldnt tell you after because i sold the truck

@larryreece1403 Месяц назад

Reminds me of when my Dad was driving his just finished 37 Ford pickup when the left rear wheel departed the truck! Tore the fender up, Which meant I had more work to do! Thankfully it was a fairly easy fix.

@davidkirby8440 Месяц назад

You are at the final stages of body work do not stop now a few more hours and ready for paint the fun part

@surindersandhi3924 Месяц назад

Hi My Dear Friend Very Very Good Job ❤❤❤❤❤

@imtonedeaf1 Месяц назад

when sand paper gums up use a wire brush to remove the paint from sand paper / bondo also

@carldean7347 Месяц назад

At the stage with the body priming that your at, I always use red scotch bright folded and sand just with your hand. I find it gives a way better smoothness than sand paper. Then I just touch it up with glazing putty I think your truck is starting to look great.

@WingmanJohnny Месяц назад

@kirkoglesby6175 Месяц назад

My favorite part of being able to do all the things with the things is not having to shell out for someone else to do it. Plus how many people have a 2011 Aveo Ute short bed here in the states? Probably just me.😂 I almost had the same situation a couple weeks back though Brent. Good news is it's metal. We cut, grind, weld and beat it into what we want. Your roadster is looking great.

@robertlemoi7919 Месяц назад

All edges could still use some work. Plastic filler still shows pinholes and rough edges. I truly admire all of your work on different projects, but for some reason I would like to see this one a little better finished. Take a break from it and come back later when the old drive comes back. Was glad to see Ryder the other day. God bless you and your family. By the way this is my favorite channel.

@kodak_jack Месяц назад

Glad to see you back on track. I was afraid you were going to roll it back outside as lawn/ lot art again. I can't wait to see what you'll pick for this winter's long range project. Before then, use the laser tool on at least one of your 100% patina vehicles and show us what it can do. Up there, winter will be starting next week.

@notajp Месяц назад

As the old saying goes; far from good, but good from far! Ryder may regret that engine swap on the quad. I did something similar several years ago with an old Yamaha shaft drive utility quad. I switched out the rear suspension for a chain drive swing arm setup, and put a Suzuki GS550 four cylinder in it. I went with the biggest rear sprocket I could get, and it was still waayyy too fast. This thing was just scary fast! Fourth gear was as far as you wanted to push it,and fifth was unusable at all. My buddy and I agreed that one of us was likely to get killed on it, so I ended up trading “Quadzilla” off to some young kid who wanted it really bad……

Hi guys. Aslong as no one including Pablo didn't get hurt. Sanding sucks!!! Haha. But as you said it's really time consuming and that's why panel beaters charge a arm ,leg and your soul. You are doing a awesome job and my daughter and I are glad that you are ok. Fiona my daughter and Sue say hello to you and your wife. Keep going Brent. You will finally get there bud. Take care guys. Kindly Jeff. NZ.😊

@glenn9989 Месяц назад

I worked for a government shop , mostly on cop cars and used that roll on primer, I loved it, first I didn’t, have to put the car in the both and I could sand it out on the floor. I would roll it on heavy , guid coat it , first sand would be 80 grit till all the black was gone then 220 if I went sand threw put a little more and sand again it was like paint on putty. 😉

@timothyjohnson6258 Месяц назад

If that was a say, 2006 pickup, the brand doesn't matter, that little boo boo would be about $14,800 in damage and a 3 month wait for parts and your insurance would go up by about 34%, so be happy you have a truck that is made of steel and not plastic and tinfoil like the newer ones. Love the vids.

@frankschwartz7405 Месяц назад

Put some of your FG resin in the bondo, it's smooth and takes longer to "kick". I think you want to use "2K" primer with the roller. You might otherwise have a drying and shrinking problem.
