roadkill guys actually hate rust and when they want it gone i get the call. this time it was the red duster which needed a new floor pan and it would be my first time doing floors on an A body
Great work Chris as usual! Watching your videos inspired me to do the floors in an old bronco. Rather than just patch them up I cut them all out and replaced them. Used same the tool kit, hired a local kid to help and just went at it. Followed what you did down to the spray on welding through copper primer to the epoxy primer snd the raptor paint. I just couldn’t be happier with the result. Roll bars going in next. Can’t say thanks enough Chris! Any body reading this just watch the videos get the proper tools together and take ur time.
Dang you made me feel old when you said I wish I was old enough to have watched day’s of thunder when it was in theaters lol I remember I was 10 years old I can still remember going to the movies and watching .
I can watch you do metal work over and over. you have taught us a ton. appreciate it, don’t ever think we are bored of it always learning something from it
Roadkill car. Right on. Means it has a new gearstar 4l80, blueprint engine, QA1 suspension, Mosier axles and pawns like yourself to do the work. So "Fry n burger?" can show up with his timing light n be the hero. Your like a mechanic Hollywood stunt man. 😂
Yes...Roadkill and many channels are just front men for big corporations who want to "sell the dream" to working class shlubs who CAN'T AFFORD all the whizzy, expensive parts they are being convinced that they need.
Absolutely love the show, keep going bro . I gave up trying to find the car I've always wanted. I've been looking hard for a G- body car for about a year. Not much luck. Keep building em man , All of your shows are awesome.
Dang, only a year. You give up way too easily... It took me over 10 to get my Charger, and it will probably take me another 5+ years to get it where I want it to be...
Yeah, my dream car . I've got 2 and I've spent 12 or 13 years looking for them and unfortunately I had to realize that it just wasn't going to happen. So I've spent a year now looking for a G-body car , now I found a couple but there were total garbage. So we'll see what happens there. My dream cars which are 2 are a duster or a Nova. I've spent quite a while looking for either one, 12 or 13 years man , it's been nuts. So , now I figured I'd cut my losses and try to get a G-Body car . It's been a year this month looking, I never thought that finding one of them would be this hard .
To capture a street sign in the wild...1) use your truck 2)back up truck, aligning the hitch with signpost 3) reverse until sign touches the ground 4) remove sign from post 5) haul ass before Johnny law gets your ass 6) you're welcome....
Chris birdsong, master of mopar. Can turn a rusty turd into a respectable machine. I always love the work you do, very good work. Hope to one day do quality work like you.
Chris you probably had a time frame to have the floor done. You are a great metal worker and know how to get it done the fastest with quality. I remember that you have done work roadkill before. You took one car and put wheel tubs back in put the rear seat frame back in. Fryburver knows your work. Have good day
At least it didn't fall short of a typical "Roadkill" moment and end up on the side of the road 😂😂😂. Even if it was only out of gas! 😂😂 Great video!! Thanks for sharing 👍 😎🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
The Road Kill guys had the best video about tuning a Holley carb. It was on a very old Ford pickup truck as I recall. They used a fuel mixture gauge and changed primary jets, secondary jets, accelerator pump cams, squirters, etc. I may be forgetting a few. Secondary springs, maybe. There is a scene where they lurch forward in the truck but forgot the tailgate was open and the jet kit open and had to spend a bit of time digging them out of the dust.
Mopar only made 1 floor pan for A Body cars. They too cut a hole in the floor for the shifter hump and it wasn't their proudest work. Mine was held in more by the seam sealer than by any welds they applied and the cutout was rough as hell.
Amazing work as always. They really need to get some sort of finish on the roof or that’ll be fill of pinholes soon. Be a shame to wreck that roof skin.
Chris I can`t believe you pulled out the interior again to paint it red, it`s getting carpet right. I thought poor Derik flew out of the car when you did the burnout, nope camera man, the floor looks great.
Lol I remember days of thunder,,i was living in Daytona at that time it came out,,& i actually used to mow the grass at the track & i worked at a shell station next to the track & we'd watch the twin 125 races from the roof of the station!!😂😂
I like to use a burr bit in a drill on spot welds. The bit lasts forever. However, it does throw a million tiny steel slivers everywhere. Umm, nevermind.
After seeing you do a frame graft on a charger frame I don't know whether to call you Dr. Dodge or Mr.Moper but you need to get with your neighbors and rename a local street "Burnout Blvd." Keep a '68 Charger on the ready in case I win the lotto!!!
Saw something that looked really handy & useful. What is that flat steel bar you use to cut between the sheet metal ? Is that something you made or something you can buy ? I’m redoing my 72 Demon and that looks better than what I’m trying. Good video, & great work. 👍
Just imagine what Chris could do with a large shop and fancy tools like they have on TV shows! The only guy that I would want to work on my Mopar other than Chris would be Mark at Graveyard Cars!!!
What Is up my brother and fellow "run what ya brung" guy, one question, does the driver's side rear have all anti-theft lug bolts or are my RU-vid eyes deceiving me? Little known fact, in the Original Gravedigger the driver's seat was school bus bench seat!
