More work on the roadster top, this round we chop up an old Buick and scavenge the roof and trunk and use the pieces to make the top for the 49 GMC.

It's really incredible how you can take all those pieces and see each curve that's going to work and get them all together so it looks like you want. Mind blown!

I didn't see it until the end

This has to be the ultimate example of.. ''You use what you've got'' 👍😁👍

@tyendor1952 3 месяца назад

I love the way you just jump in and figure it out as you go ... This whole project looks way better than I ever thought it could when you started it..

@davidhatch2558 3 месяца назад

I remember that the general's roof was a hot mess. You'll make it awesome Brent. You always do. Thanks for the video. You are awesome

@markdebano944 3 месяца назад

I like it!!! I’m glad the visor will work. I like it way better with it. It’s coming along. Keep up the good work

@crbrepairmotorcycles6608 3 месяца назад

I like the small visor idea and it fits in box ,keeps getting better every step of the way❤

@markaubuchon2227 3 месяца назад

Thank you for adding filming to your list of jobs in the shop. We appreciate the work and the effort it takes. And, you’re a master fabricator on top of it!

@headhunter4488 3 месяца назад

I'm amazed what you can do with parts and pieces. Proves that anything can be done when you have a sledgehammer, grinder and a welder. I can see the finished roadster now.

@MrGreeny79 3 месяца назад

Good stuff, I'm glad the visor idea will work, it really adds the perfect line.

@markbrown6236 3 месяца назад

Who knew a couple of front fenders, trunk lid and a roof from an old Olds would come together as your top. Win. Glad Ryder got his quad running, Pablo snoozed through this video.

@rustysparks8645 3 месяца назад

Brent really is the 'Metal Magician' - he can take an eclectic assortment of random pieces of metal and piece the puzzle together. 👍👍

@paulvanhouts3365 3 месяца назад

Hi Brent and Esther, it’s this kind of creative trial and error that has me watching this channel. Reminds me of the crispy fried franken (steam punk) car. Great to see young Ryder getting his quad fixed, almost independ3ntly , while you worked.

@robbieautrey3158 3 месяца назад

Great job on the roof Brent, i like the way you made it with the visor. Looks like Ryder was very happy to get his quad going again.. 🙂

@paulmelhuish9213 3 месяца назад

its amazing watching the work and ingenuity that's put into this project. just take parts from anything and make it work !

@IronPhoenixRodandCustom 3 месяца назад

Awesome build! Reminds me of a ‘48 GMC custom show truck built in 1959 by the Bernardo Bros. I am fortunate to now own it & am currently reviving & documenting it on my RU-vid channel. I think you’ll appreciate the look they created!

@RandyH-qf3dc 3 месяца назад

Brent, as others mention, I don't know how you look at fenders , roofs and trunk lids and visually process how you might be able to stich all of it together together tofit your vision and just fit on the truck. You are so talented. Your fab work is just amazing. Love watching

@fredericbergez9257 3 месяца назад

Great !!! Really impressed by the process you used to build this Carson top, because it wasn't easy to find the right pieces with the right curves. It's looking good. 😉

@Chevypowered5766 3 месяца назад

Hey Brent, after all that cutting and trimming you managed to piece together an amazing top even in it’s rough state it has a great look, great job can’t wait to see it finished in vinyl. Later

@terryeustice5399 3 месяца назад

So, the soft top is out and now a Hard Top. Cool 😎 Lot of extra fabrication. But you’re blessed with the skills to do pretty much what you’re feeling. Can’t wait to see this GMC put together. Thank you for sharing! 🥰💯👊👍

@ghouliesgarage3922 3 месяца назад

I've been in the Hospital so I get to binge watch my favorite RU-vidr 😊 The top on the truck is turning out amazing! I like it the way it is , However I have come to trust your "Vision's" as they never disappoint ! Glad to see Ryder got his quad going . Godspeed ....

@harold306 3 месяца назад

A few times on this build I was like omg that looks like crap then you amaze me with your awesome skills. Been looking foward to every video on this build. Thanks for what you do and the amazing videos.

@Huskiedrive361 3 месяца назад

Brent - your metal working skill is amazing. You have the ability to look at a complete roof skin from a car and visualize the sections of a curve that you well need to make a completely different shape for the roof of a truck. Unbelievable! What a talent! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride. I really enjoy the channel.

@danielrosenblatt7082 3 месяца назад

Beyond amazing how you pieced all of that together. Perhaps you should take up quilting!

@keonikaig9247 3 месяца назад

@stevensreejith3041 3 месяца назад

The top and the hood seems to be legit and is very clean, I think once u finish the final welds it will be a awesome looking vehicle. ❤️💐💐

@Legnum666 3 месяца назад

Two fenders a trunk lid and a roof lol!, nearly there :) love it!

@robinbryde3038 3 месяца назад

@user-lj1hi4xh6o 3 месяца назад

Brent it amazes me how you put things together. you are awesome. good job.

@MasterBo39 3 месяца назад

Consider: Two thirds of a conduit/tube will make a usable top cap for the cab edge onto which you can weld the roof back and then just set it on the back of the cab and it will shed water and stay seated. Bo.

@adman6380 3 месяца назад

Roof shape turned out great

@AndrewHCann 3 месяца назад

Excellent video Brent :) also super looks great on 1949 GMC Hot Rod and comes together too step by step !

@Akfordmn 3 месяца назад

Love the visor look!

@codyc6975 3 месяца назад

Hey looks great ! Its just getting your dream to reality ! Maybe a few rails from sside to side to help lock it all together ! Then figuring just how much time you want to out into it ! The visor thing would look great on it ! Keep going its almost there ! Definitely looks better than the factory cab was !

@terrenceadams3481 3 месяца назад

Hey Brent! I think it is going to look and fit fine. Nice work. 😀😀

@edricoddot 3 месяца назад

That is awesome, Brent. Looking good. I have a 500 piece puzzle you could weld together for a top of another future project.

Hi again Brent and Ester from the D Mi hey thanks for sharing your update on your GMC and wow that's a lot of cutting & welding but im the end I'm sure it will be s roof 😅🎉 🤩💪🤔😁

@bobbygant8649 3 месяца назад

Definitely keep the visor look good!!!!!

@tarbogas66 3 месяца назад

Really like where you're going with the top ! Nice to see Ryder working on his 4 wheelers and having fun riding it. And cool music, had a great time 🙏 Have a nice one Brent

@TMxl-w5t 3 месяца назад

That's well impressive Mr.... cutting the waste out of it will reduce the weight by 30%, add a couple of roof bars to use as handles, and ya well sorted 😊👍👌

@kazzxtrismus 3 месяца назад

dude..just coming back to say i really like how this turned out

@dfusit 3 месяца назад

You Sir are a fabrication genius. That removable roof is coming along quite nicely. Who knew that you could combine a trunk, a hood and a couple fenders and come out with a roof? Stay safe Brent.

@kirbysisk7003 3 месяца назад

Old hoods and trunk lids make great sheet metal for skinning old stock cars.

@JustinPaul1st 3 месяца назад

After reading all the comments when it comes.to Brent's methodology to metal fabrication..."just trust the process "😂😂😂 it will speak for itself

@tomandpeg4818 3 месяца назад

Really like where this is going.

@ScorpioKing1 3 месяца назад

You should look at maybe using the rear window and surrounding from an old Volkswagen beetle. I think It would work perfectly and look awesome. Just an observation. I love this build man.. love it
