I've always been impressed with Dan's affection for Audrey, like a father would have with his daughter. Genuine feelings for someone can't be faked. Very refreshing!!!
Dan and Audrey have a great working relationship. She has worked with Dan for 13 years and learned so much about building vehicles! Audrey is super badass!
More to come! And thank you. We are editing new full episodes now and putting out more of these webisodes and podcasts while working on those with CMAX Media. (Note - Dan is NOT Audrey's father, but he is proud of her.)
I just loved that video he teaches Audrey how to do touchup work on a car and also people watching like me and it is what I am doing on a 1:18 scale car in white also,I also painted cars in 1975 and made very good money doing it my self ,but I never did touch I alway had extra paint and could mach the color perfect .Dan is a Master at what he does on cars and how he helps other people how to do thing also ,he is taking his time for people who want to learn .It is and honor to watch your show and videos for many years ,I wish I could shake your hand and say thank you ,thanks Dan !
@@Fantomworks After the disaster Discovery made of Chip Foose I was more than a bit worried you might not get out whole and sound.Chip's wife, as you probably know is a lawyer- a pretty good lawyer at that. Even so, Chip was done in for any content control from the drop- and the reason his Overhaulin' looked like a modified Survivor show is because that is what Discovery wanted. Thank you for surviving, thank you for really showing how it really does get done. I should have expected no less- your own sense of due and fair, your integrity said from the drop you wouldn't let those things continue once they took of the blinders. Awesome!
A full paint job requires stripping the car, and that totally blows this guy's budget. This is about getting him back on the road and enjoying the car - paint touch ups were the best we could do, but you can see what a difference that makes if you can't go 100% through a full paint job!
Awesome work folks! Thanks for showing us how to do this. I have tried Dr. Color Chip a couple times with less than stellar results. With some tips that I learned from you I hope to fix my chips better now.
Thank you, Dan & Audrey, for letting us spend a few learning moments back in the shop. It made me feel a little homesick for the gang and the way you'd make an apparently impossible job brought back to life before our very eyes. Is FantomWorks still working with Bridgette and C-Max? The last we heard anything was that they had to stockpile a good number of finished builds so there would be enough content to start producing the actual shows. I'd be happy with giving body cams to Dan, Audrey, and the mechanics and fabricators, along with fixed cameras at the workstations. The results wouldn't be as polished as the old show, but it would have the spontaneity that can be "produced out" in a more elaborate production.
We are still working with CMAX and they are editing and releasing all the content you see here while the full show is being edited and shopped. Thank you for your support! Believe me, the guys will never wear body cams and the majority of work is in editing on both the show and webisodes - which is being done now. The best support we need is in sharing the word and people liking/subscribing/sharing our youtube channel. You can take it to the next step and subscribe via fantomworks.cmax.tv to watch commercial free and help fund us moving forward. Get some merch from fantomworks-store.myshopify.com/ and tell people you see that we're making content again - but on our terms!
Now that I am an old guy, I am finding that a lot of the really undesirable cars of the past are really sharply and elegantly styled. The people who created the shapes of these cars really did some great things. Take this Oldsmobile for example. You have what started off as a square Kleenex box and tweaked it to have a very flowing and pleasing combination of shapes. I am bored with all the Tri five Chevys, mustangs, challengers and old impalas. I am really relishing the style and forms of the forgotten cars. The Studebakers, Nashes, Packards, mercurys, Lincolns, plymouths and so on. Even a lot of the new cars have a number of models with excellent shapes and styles. The first generation dodge intrepid and eagle visions have good style. The first Chrysler LHS/New Yorker. The 96-99 ford Taurus and Mercury Sable have good lines. (Not everyone liked them, but they are still quite striking.) the current Ford Maverick pickup turns out to have a great style and form of visual integrity overall. The first generation S-10 and GMC S-15 pickups art very well done. How about the Subaru BRAT? It’s all wrong, and is really quit ugly, but taken as a whole, looks right. The 1958 and 1959 Edsel are often thought of as ugly cars. But I’d you stop and look at them, they have a style and detail to them that is easily recognizable and ties together quite well. The 1980’s Chrysler K-cars. Especially the squared off 4 door models with their chiseled lines are quite striking. It’s hard to make a square tall skinny boxy car look good. But Chrysler somehow did it.
Good morning, I have been following you for years, I have seen the episodes countless times here in Argentina on Discovery Channel, I discovered some time ago that they are here on RU-vid, here in Latin America the number of people who saw them is countless, I wanted to propose that you put the. possibility of subtitles in Spanish so we can understand them in advance thank you very much and keep making your good videos!+++
I would add one more color to adjustment list, green, because potentially you might need a color to 'Kill' another color, black and white kill each other, yellow and blue kill each other, but you need green to kill red.
Dan is my favorite but wouldn"t you just wet sand the whole car or whatever they do to re vitalize the paint or just strip it down and paint the whole damn car?If it"s a fussy customer,their gonna pick it apart,right?

And no, he's not a fussy customer - he was not even expecting us to be able to squeeze in any paint work. He's a reasonable guy who loves his car.
