This is your boy Eric from Southern Cali. You are the man! No doubt about it, you are the man! I ran into your videos today and loved every one of them. I have a 93 Fleetwood Brougham myself that's cut also, but I'm working on the interior and paint. Let me tell you what I did to reinforce my front and maybe you can use this technique someday. I bought some spray adhesive and some wax paper you use for cooking. I cleaned the frame, sprayed the frame with the adhesive, laid the wax paper on the frame, cut what I didn't need, trace the edge of the frame onto the wax paper, this way it will give you a much tighter fit. Peel off the wax paper and transfer your template onto some construction paper. Trace the construction paper and transfer that onto your steel. Your boy Eric from So.Cali.
Just bought a unicorn. 1995 Fleetwood Brougham 60K, from little ole lady from Broussard LA, that she bought new. Passed to Grandson who had no use for it. Every thing works except drivers door window, which you helped me fix thru your video !!! Yep, it was the plastic clips. All good now!!
Killer stuff man! Good to see people out here running beads and not just tacking everything together lol I plan to juice my coupe in the future after finishing some of my other projects
The title muffin man has already been awarded if you haven't seen this already check out my guest host ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dJ2-X7oXzr0.html
Dude! I know you're a welder, but holy shit man your welds and beads look excellent👌🏾!!! Props bro! I hate to say it, and I know I might catch static for it, but it seems like a good welder in the lowrider community is few and far between these days! Keep the culture alive man! 🤜🏾💯🤛🏾
Thanks man! There is still room for improvement I try to get better with every weld it just takes practice. The thing with good welders being few and far between is most people that are building cars are just average guys learning as they go. You have to start somewhere just have to use common sense to use judgment to know if it's a critical part or just plating somthing
It all came out looking good man ! I’ll be taking pics of the fleetwood I got that I was telling you about on Instagram ! Just been busy but I’ll get some soon and shoot them over to you in a DM ! Keep up the good work bro !
I forgot to reinforce the ring that holds the ball joint, so now my ball joint is loose, someone suggested to use an oversized ball joint from Napa auto parts.
Yeah you can probably get away with those or you can measure the balljoint and see about welding a piece of pipe in the arm where the balljoint goes worse case have a pipe machined so the ball joint will press in then weld that pipe in the arm
@@thecadillacdanshow8658 the reason I'm asking is because I can't find any 6" id pipe down here, I have 15 feet of 8" from a job I did that's why I was asking, going to be doing 2 s10's an 84 and a 2000
@@armandoaldape4007 I think 8 would work fine really it w ok uld be best if they made 7 inch but they dont it may come in tube but I'm not about to buy a stick of tube for 6 inchs
Some times it's a real pain in the ass I use a dead blow hammer to tap them in If it still wont go I will get a 4x4 chunk of wood and a sledge hammer just be careful a line up bar will also help for when you get the bolt hole close just us a the line up bar to pull it to the center of the bolt hole
Excuse me sir. Ima need you go ahead putting down the tools k the welder k and slowly back away. Ty. Lmafo. Great work brotha Ima need come to your area learning some things shoot. 👍👍😎😎😎😎
@@thecadillacdanshow8658quick question I gotta g body. I need put the pipe in the spring pockets like you did what size pipe did you use?? And what type ?? Thanks brotha.
