After removing and beginning the door panel recovery process by removing the old (and to be reused) vinyl and starting the cutting process, this week we begin the reassembly of our Fairlane door panels. We'll give tips on using router bits on a high speed cut off tool, how to set up panels for gluing, and what glue to use for best adhesion. We also cover some things we have discovered while moving forward on the American Autowire install.
Thanks for watching!

Doing this on my old Jaguar the 'trimmers' cut pies in the fabric corners to get a nice flat fit. Enjoying this video!

@AutoRestoMod 6 лет назад

We will do what are called (in my area) pie cuts in the vinyl to curtail bunching.

I’ve found Total Boat Penetrating Epoxy the best solution for restoring old cracked, broken door cards or constructing new ones. The penetrating epoxy is absorbed into the fibers of the door card waterproofing and strengthen the cards. I also use the same epoxy with fiberglass mat to strengthen the attachments points. You can also use Fiberglass weave to rebuild corners…. As a final touch I use a marine top-side paint to make it all look nice and offer more protection.

Great tip!

@AutoRestoMod 11 лет назад

We like Gear Vendor, super nice product. And we really appreciate the input! We'll look into doing something like that in the future.

@AutoRestoMod 11 лет назад

Good tips all Zaraak! We've personally had mixed success with the masking tape. We think it might depend on the panel board. We've never used the paint stir stick idea, we'll have to do that on the passengers door panel.

@gadgetdeez7069 5 лет назад

When you're working with the door panel backing, to prevent the back side of the panel from blowing out when you drill, set the panel on top of a sacraficial piece of wood and drill through into the sacraficial wood. It supports the panel and prevents blowout.

@devinrogers6877 8 лет назад

drilling through a panel into mid air will break out the panel on the back when the drill pops through ..use an old board or plywood to lay your work on as a backing to drill into so as not to break out

I guess Im randomly asking but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow forgot the login password. I appreciate any help you can give me.

@keithlandyn4488 2 года назад

@Cade Arthur Thanks for your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@keithlandyn4488 2 года назад

@Cade Arthur It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thank you so much you saved my account !

Question I have a 72 coronet custom and need to rebuilt the door panels, how do you remove the top window seal to release the vinyl ?

@pookatim 10 лет назад

If you want to avoid having the drill bit 'breakout' on the back side of the panel, drill half way through the front then drill in from the back.

@BaronvonBlutwurst 10 месяцев назад

Stew-Mac has a dremel router base attatchment to steady you bit.

@martinparker6536 7 лет назад

cut the staples down with a pair of tin snips (while there in theyre block form)........got the tip off some other guy on utube doin a similar panel resto.

@fishon8406 9 лет назад

This looks like 1/4" staples would work (the T-50 kind). I think they even make a 3/16" staple. I wish these guys were my next door neighbors. I could take them salmon fishing and they could help me work on my car. That's me in the photo with a 30lb king salmon jumping behind the boat. My boat. Taken by my wife from our deck next to the Kenai River. 1Acre - two cabins. For sale.

@waynewhisnand7854 11 лет назад

You can also prevent blowing out the backside of your whiteboard when you drill through it by clamping a small piece of scrap wood to it on the back side of where you're drilling.

@jerseyshoreweldtech424 3 месяца назад

Hey guys I need help.. I'm stuck and not getting convincing results ... I have a 65 impala 4 door sedan post.. does the 2 door coupe fit the 4 door or does the 4 dr HT fit the sedan .. I'm trying find dimensions of both doors , but no results

@JeffSnowRealEstateGroup Год назад

What material are you using for the backer board? I have some high density fiberboard I’m looking at using.

@AutoRestoMod Год назад

That could work. Lowe's calls it white board

@TJ-lh4pr 3 года назад

When you drill or use the hole saw, if you put a piece of scrap wood on the back, and drill right into the scrap, you won’t blow out the panel on the back side.

@AutoRestoMod 3 года назад

Learned that too late...LOL

@fishypictures 2 года назад

Easier than that, on soft material, plastic, particle board ect. Just run your hole saw in reverse. It takes a little longer but it doesn’t blow out and the finish is clean.

@AutoRestoMod 2 года назад

Great tip!

@HiddenBoss 11 лет назад

You guys should find someone with a C-4 trans in their mustang and want an overdrive and rather than a T-5 install recommend a Gear Vendors. and offer to install it for an episode. I think Gear Vendors is a great unit overall. 6 speed semi auto or 4 speed fully auto.

@ivanbarbaric9806 3 года назад

Greeting. What material is it? that blue one? is it some plastic fabric? Is there a special name and are they still being produced? Thank you!

@AutoRestoMod 3 года назад

The two door panels are still produced you can get them here: www.autokrafters.com/ The panels are plastic with a open cell foam backing to give them a puffy look and feel. They are originally heat sealed to the fiber board.

@ivanbarbaric9806 3 года назад

@@AutoRestoMod Thanks for the reply but I am primarily interested only in the material that is glued to the board. which gives color to the panel. it’s kind of like artificial leather but it’s not. something else. Do you know what that material is?

@TexasNova 10 лет назад

Gear vendor is a great product with great customer service. I bit pricey though.

@richardtreadaway5637 10 лет назад

Can you show us how to do sheet-metal door panels like on the Oldsmobile I think it was the gray car in the beginning of Tokyo drift. Pleas and Ty

@AutoRestoMod 10 лет назад

Great idea Richard, we'll look into that. Our new co-cohost Larry Shirley is a good tin bender so that is a little more likely.

@danjohnson5114 7 лет назад

Are you talking about the Monte Carlo?

@USMCBludweiser 9 лет назад

title is spelled wrong

@AutoRestoMod 9 лет назад

Thanks for the heads up, we fixed it.

@TC-dw6wg 2 года назад

Hahaha!

@itsruf1 3 года назад

observation: These guys are hack. 18v/ 24v drill for a simple hole? geesh. Get out a smaller 12v drill. No common sense to prevent "breakout on the rear side. Pinewood Derby kids know better. Then an unorganized wall back drop? This screams half-a$$ed.

@AutoRestoMod 3 года назад

Well...that's like....just your opinion man. Come over and show us how you'd wow the crowd with your expertise and pinewood derby knowledge. We'll be waiting.

@TC-dw6wg 2 года назад

Lousy Observation. Blow out caused by not supporting back of panel while drilling through. Ex. Sacrificial board behind panel while drilling.
