Hey Mark take a digital photo with your IPhone and I don’t see WHY a local print shop wouldn’t make a duplicate!!!! They’ll even put it on a weatherproof laminate decal that resembles the original one….. I’ve had them made for my 1987 Porsche 944 and they’re SPOT ON…👍👍👍
Everything is looking good and coming together. Love that you are able to do a thorough restoration and cutting no corners! Enjoying this project, keep it up.
Mark take your time on this car. You’re doing a great job. Painting the door jams is a great idea for paint match. I’ll see if I can locate some of those stickers. ❤
Take good high quality pictures of your jam stickers & their measurements, a good sticker/decal shop can reproduce those for you. You might even be able to do those yourself if you're good with a Cricket decal maker or know someone who does it.
Great to see young men doing this kind of work and taking the extra steps to do it right! Love watching your channel it’s nothing but hard work something you are obviously not afraid of. Thanks for sharing
Mark, the rusty spots on the sunroof have a blue discoloration. This means that it is oxidized steel. This will certainly rust further in the future. Seriously consider the carbon fiber roof. The discoloration is visable in the video.
flexible very sharp razor thin to cut the glue done loads but be carefull also on 2varish full build mclaren 675lt (on youtube)at time frame 4 .31 .00 to4. 32 .00 his body guy says he knows a guy that can make new stickers fram a good photo so give 2 varish a call @@Motorheadco
If you know a good graphic artist it can be recreated. I think those stickers have a security feature like a tag decal though? A vinyl printer could be the answer. I'm sure the shop has a vinyl wrap company that fixes company vans? Just my thoughts. Cheers.
Bro. -You should've taken the glass off and done the jams.- Glad he "messed up" bc you'll be happy you redid them. I would've just taped off the stickers with the specs. What I wouldn't have left..? The inside of the truck, the underside of the hood and inside of the doors as you're going to see seems. Honestly, I'm surprised you didn't take the engine out of it. But, I get it, you have to draw the line somewhere ... unless you were always going to take it out to do some work later anyway. ?
Why didn't you build a poly tent with dust extraction to sand all the paint off , would keep the shop a lot cleaner ? ( what ever , you got it done nice job,
no professional will use paint stripper, it can get into the metal and react with new paint i was used to painting ex military aircraft out side, it was horrible, you had to use a blow torch on body work to rid the damp in the metal before applying any paint, you think its dry, wave a torch over it very briefly and you soon see the condensation come up and dry in the heat - you get the same with most primers, need to rid moisture before top coat - i used a zinc based primer, and rust would still creep through, so now i use zinc, another primer then top coat very surprised Marky your not using discs with holes so you can suck the dust into a vacuum - i was using one a few years back and it made such a difference - find a local design studio to replicate the stickers, i used to do it with military aircraft, actually was my thing doing the graphics, get them to draw it up, and print to a clear vinyl, then you can stick this onto some real good cheap heat/plumbing self adhesive foil, cut out, and job done
lol it is. Go to any reputable and get quoted on a bare metal restoration. They price can go up exponentially higher than 20 even, you won’t get this done for less than 15 and even 15 is questionable work at best
Just had one question Mark, you guys went to all the trouble to paint the 1967 Ford Mustang to such a high standard, why is it sitting in the workshop uncovered when you’ve got all that paint dust flying around?
Curious why body shops always blow the sanding dust in the air instead of vacuuming. Does anyone make an industrial air filter to take a majority of the dust out of the air. Hate to see young guys end up with COPD
Question. When you call it a 20k paint job. I assume you mean if someone were to hire a shop to do the work but can you tell me how much of the cost would be materials vs labor? I assume labor is the bulk but does using higher level paint products add a lot to the bottom line price? Thanks
Yes, high quality clear is around 1k for a setup and almost the same for high quality paint. Not to mention bondo and high quality primer. Materials for this car would be around 3-4k and labor is even more extensive as you can see 😂😅 at a labor rate of 80 an hour so it comes out around 20k
you tube will not let me give you the info for the company that makes legal sets of stickers for any vehicle...you will have to contact vehcor for the companies name he uses
Sad part is, just going off of your history, after all of that crazy time, effort, and money you are spending on your car, it will be wrecked by a month after you finish the restoration. Just saying.
I had a $1,500 paint job and trust me the quality of workmanship is mediocre. All they do is just scuff the paint, bondo the dings and use single stage paint. This is a ton of work!!!
Car going to look good since doing all that like u did on the mustang of your boss's figure u would have covered it up to keep all that red dust from getting all over it
Bet after u buff it it really bring out the flake and if someone runs the hands over it will it starch it will your have any flake or just doing single stage paint
you can turn the volume down if they have it up to loud in their video but you cant turn it up if they do not have the volume up on their part of the video...
@@nomad57-u3x The music is 3x as loud as the talking....I'm always on the volume control up and back down as you either can barely hear whats being said or blowing out the speakers with the base in the music.
This is a good channel, please dont spoli it with clickbait, there is no way you are really spending 20 thousand Dollars on a paint job for this car. Keep it real, be honest.
a paint job like this really could cost 10-20k. hes doing the work himself so obviously isn’t paying 20k but if you go to a shop and ask for this same work you’re selling an organ.
@@kraignadjkovic5494 there’s no reason to remove the glass as I stated… it’s an unnecessary risk of busting it. There’s plenty of room for paint to wrap around that edge. I’m not gonna cut corners going this far into this restoration
Only 8:42 min in but not painting the jams makes zero sense. Come on man put in the extra effort to make it match perfect. No need to go bare metal on the jams, but scuff them up and paint it in 1 go (don't see the point in going bare metal on the rest of the car either btw, but ok)
Seek Jesus! Repent for the Kingdom is at hand! Jesus is the way! The truth! And the life! He’s the ONLY way! Open the Bible, read and understand that we are in the last days! Put your full trust in him! Believe 1 Corinthians 15 1-4!
