Matt's good friend Jim agreed to do the upholstery work on the Delorean roadster and our schedules has aligned to finally take the car to his shop. We did a video a few months ago digging into the old convertible top to see how it was created back in the 1940s. Between Jim and our own efforts we were able to track down the correct top material and headliner. Jim is also a huge Chevrolet guy and has some neat cars and engines stashed in his shop!!

"We go to other peoples places to feel sane" Oh how true!

@markeholbrook Год назад

Dad was 4 years old when the 32 Ford came out. He's still doing well.

@chuckb9867 Год назад

Buy that man a beer he deserves it

@screwthecrewofpoliticians8921 Год назад

Just a few more years and he goes triple digits. I hope he makes it.😊

@markeholbrook Год назад

@@screwthecrewofpoliticians8921 I hope so too.

@garycamara9955 Год назад

So was my mother, but she's not with us anymore.

@steveclark4291 Год назад

My dad was born around time also and my mom was born in 35 !

@1954shadow Год назад

My dad had an Austin-Healy like Jim’s. I was 8 or 9 at the time and I remember riding in in on a summer day with the top down, but, your feet would cook from the heat coming up from the engine and radiate through the trans tunnel and floorboard near it.

@DuckReach432 Год назад

Good to see Moon again. That 327 Austin Healey is amazing. I loved the V8 needing about half a crank to cold start.

@terryeustice5399 Год назад

Nice tour of The Jim’s shop. He is a Chevy guy no doubt. Thank you Matt ! 💯👊

@kalinagoedge2777 Год назад

Such a fascinating video of the work that will be done by Jim. Really amazing walk through of his "orange grove." Some viewers might be disappointed, not a single Reatta in the place, lol! Just kidding. I really enjoy the good humor and motor vibes you share with us all.

@jamesmcdowell4473 Год назад

Lol!!!

@steveclark4291 Год назад

Thank you Jim for the tour of your shop and a history lesson on upholstery !

Jim has a Nice collation of cars and motors

@hankpugh4980 Год назад

What a wealth of information and history this man has. I sure hope some younger guys will learn / apprentice under guys like this and especially learn the history of what men like this can pass on before they are gone.

@WACRE44 Год назад

Thanks Matt !😊

@kurtludwig6962 Год назад

Matt I went to high school in 63-66 in a sleepy Southern California town of Fallbrook. A gas station guy was always working on his 58 Healey with SBC. Right in front of the gas station was a rail road spur across Main Street. Sometimes At night I’d catch him going home and would do a “wheelie” over the track

@teddunphy8369 Год назад

fantastic Austin Healy

@davidjenkins1958 Год назад

The thing that amazes me is when Matt and crew puts together a car with the flathead engines, most of the time these cars start as if they have a modern day fuel injected engine.

@donames6941 Год назад

Morning Matt and guys i watch all your videos as well as one other guy Brent at halfasscustom i know he has seen your videos to he commented on a few well he and his wife went on a road trip to Texas from Canada and as he was gone his whole shop burn to the ground he put out a video to show what it looks like now so as one hotroder to another is there and thing you can do to help him out a little he lost a killer ford truck 38 i think and a car he was making it was looking good maybe you could do a pick at his place to help some so thinks for reading love your videos on the flathead stuff and your builds keep up the good work

@thomasst.martin3308 Год назад

I always thought the messagging of the panel for the rear license plate was way too cool on this car. But the forensic study of the top with a headliner is really incredible. Someone spent a lot of thought and money to make this roadster stand out from the crowd.

@frankjones4094 Год назад

That Healey must run like a bandit. Thanks for the tour.

@barryhickman6911 3 месяца назад

LOVE that Healey!!!!!!

@garysoykin2783 Год назад

That was a great video. Thanks Matt and Steve.

@reneprovencher8395 Год назад

Oh Man, that is a tour I’ll never forget. I was collecting stuff before I shipped out during VN war. I called my Dad before my first flight to VN (USAF) I told my Dad to sell everything and pay the phone bills jr was getting from my phone calls. Very expensive in the 60’s. Ok I digress, I never sent back to collecting anything. God I wish someone had slapped me and said, don’t sell. Yeah tell that to Dad paying huge phone bills. Yeah Jim owns the car I have panted ever gif 60 years. A beautiful Healey!!!!!

@wayneosmand7652 Год назад

Love the sound from the Healey!

@jimknarr4209 Год назад

Jim is a true Hot Rodder. When he said tits to describe the top material I knew he had to be close to my age. I'm sure in another time we would be fast friends. My heart was thumpin when you were showing Mat your collection. I too have a therapy car it's a Vega with a 450 horse 350 for when I have gloomy days in the shop. Like you Jim the bad day melts away when I'm in it. Thanks for posting Mat loved it.

@chuckb9867 Год назад

This is a super cool video love seeing Moon and all the goodness with no Badness

@johnmacadam8151 Год назад

Just saw your old 39 Ford on an episode of Roadkill. I loved following the story on that car.

@HogshooterHotrods Год назад

Serious cool stuff love his engine and gauge collection1

@michaelguinn5736 Год назад

Morning Matt, your upstairs storage is really looking good, maybe sometime next summer (2024) I will do a road trip to Pa. In my 31 Coupe....you never know, my ex brother in law had a Austin Healy with a Big Block Chevrolet, it was a tube chassis drag car that was built in the 1970's... be safe!!! God Bless!!

@steveclark4291 Год назад

That Austin Healey sounds awesome !

@Viktorrhansen Год назад

really cool seeing his place and all the gauges!

@gkanderson92 Год назад

It will be a wait for your interior to get done and I'm probably as anxious as you to see it. Thanks for taking us on the tour of Jim's shop. Pretty cool! Love his Stewart Warner collection.

@steveclark4291 Год назад

I love Jim's 32 Roadster even the color scheme !

@shotsrodder Год назад

Jim has some nice toys 😂😂 please paint the sides of the car silver it would look killer 😎

@michaelraabe3401 Год назад

Great video! Nice to see some Chevy stuff! Love the Healy!

@matthewschneider2089 Год назад

Dude!! The biggest reason I watch your channel is the treasures you bring to the channel!!! Whether it's cars or trinkets!!! It's car guy thing!!! ✌️ps!!! The builds are also cool!!! Thanks!!!

@murdoc6501 Год назад

The Delorian roadster is stunning. Reminds me of the Winfield roadster now owned by Rob Ida (especially the gas tank treatment cover, not many had that kind of fab work). Not a fender guy, but with the rake and set-up it is perfect on your car and is exactly they way it has to be! Jim's shop, cars, and collection is amazing! Great stuff and thank you. Go Iron Trap, keep moving forward!

@steveclark4291 Год назад

I had a 59 biscayne ! I had a 62 American Rambler 6cyl with 3 on the tree , 66 Ford 2 door hardtop Fairlane 289 with C4 transmission , 72 Camero , 69 Dodge Dart GT 2 door hardtop 318 , 57 Willys 4x4 station wagon with Super Hurricane , 54 International pickup and 50 Chevy pickup and 84 Chey 3/4 ton 4x4 !

@badad0166 Год назад

I'm imagining the Healey with a guide coat on the steel panels. Kinda knock down the patch work a bit.

@sprezzatura8755 Год назад

Jim could probably fabricate aluminum panels to match the center sections. Imagine the entire car fully polished aluminum.

@classactkirk Год назад

Kool video,he's Def the dude to have that top done without a doubt. Man o man I love the 18s on the 33,I can't quit staring at the stance and how tough they look.

@Roger-hq1yt Год назад

I think the pick up is my favourite one of your fleet, such a cool little truck, definitely a keeper.

@steveclark4291 Год назад

Matt thank you for the adventure and seeing awesome things at Jim's shop !

@tarbeau8561 Год назад

I LOVE your 3 window behind you at the end of this video. That big motor is awesome lol. Keep up the great work with everything

@BrunoWiebelt Год назад

please make a video in the middle of the building process ... this man has such a knowledge

@TrashcanGarage Год назад

I thought my shop was getting crowded. Now I don't feel so bad. Of course, I can't claim any of my crap is as cool as Jim's! Or Matt's. 🤘😎 Thanks for the tour guys!

@tommahnke Год назад

Was good to see the Healey. I inherited a 60 Healey from my sister and I will always have a soft spot for them.

@geofo60 Год назад

I worked on making reproduction aluminium panels for A/Healeys prior to retiring after forty plus years as a panel beater here in the UK. It's always a pleasure to see them being used and appreciated.

That first shot lens angle made the Merc look like a limo backing out! Gotta say, you nailed the stance on the Delorean!

@scottmartin356 Год назад

All the cars are looking good!

@richardwirt3193 Год назад

Great video thanks

@suesterzzzoom1649 Год назад

This settles it.... Uncle Jim, can I start making payments on the Healey now? You keep it and drive it til you can't anymore. I'm afraid I might have a battle ahead of me. We really need to talk. (Next weekend?) Signed, Your favorite niece

@jeffchecchio5026 Год назад

Absolute great video!

@snoopu2601 Год назад

When your looking for a certain thing/material or what ever it maybe, it's almost impossible to find it. So when you see it and you "THINK" you may use it one day the time to buy it is when you see it. It's just a matter of having a place to store it for later date. I'm a crafter working on many different project's from metal to wood, plastics, paper, cardboard so I tend to have bins full of stuff to use.

@TheCrackerBox Год назад

Thanks for another ,Brother !!

@georgestemple3310 Год назад

Excellent video this is why I love this hobby

@michaelgillespie1206 Год назад

It's not a hobby, it's a lifestyle. A hobby is something you practice in your spare time.

@georgestemple3310 Год назад

Well I don't have that option to consider it a life style

@deanbrunner261 Год назад

Make sure everyone gives a shout out to Brent and family at Halfass Kustoms who lost his hotrod shop to a fire

@gordonstroup882 Год назад

Hey Matt, I always love it when you go to Jim's place, "The Orange Grove" because he loves to show off his toys and you smile like a Cheshire Cat and do a lot of giggling, ha ha. You're like a kid in a toy store, looky mom, I want this, looky mom, I love this! And Steve, he smiles a whole lot, especially around that 62 Biscane.... yeah, it has to be a great time for the both of you guys. I didn't hear or see Mike, is he OK? Or was he left behind to hold down the fort? Great show today and thanks for sharing another adventure with "Iron Trap Garage" Later ✌️

@CapnBubbaa Год назад

Great Video Content!!

@JML1955GMC Год назад

Great video 👍

@1954shadow Год назад

I see Steve is a stogie man, awesome, I’ll light one up in brotherhood. Looks to be about a 60 ring he is enjoying.

@danstewart8218 Год назад

Hey Matt, greetings from the UK. Jims a treasure, super knowledgeable. Just a heads up, to get rid of moths use eucalyptus leaves and/or sweet violet flowers (even together), they smell a lot nicer than camphor moth balls!!

@stevenbrowningsr1144 Год назад

That 409 would be the perfect motor for the '63 Biscayne! Nice fleet!

@DaleHodgdon Год назад

Exactly!

@christophereakin Год назад

Those Healeys are so low! I saw a six cylnder Healey once that had a reverse dent in the hood from hitting the oil pan on a speed bump pushed the engine up into the hood.

@waynehayes8237 Год назад

Cool video

@Mercmad Год назад

One of my Customers has a Mercedes with a hood liner in the folding top. The outside is smooth and you cant see the hood bow shapes. It folds easily ,even with what looks like a big mattress under the top material. The interior lining sounds similar to the cloth you have got.

@lordleonusa 7 месяцев назад

Being from the UK originally, that Austin Healey, is my absolute favourite of this episode, and although you like the 'perfectly shitty' look, personally, I would paint the steel parts silver, apart from that, it's perfect, and don't shoot me, but I'd also paint the engine silver, yes, I know, Chevy Orange, but I don't like Orange too well.

@thinkingofyouto1 Год назад

The Austin Healey bad ass and this is the type of guy you want doing shit on your car because you can hear how excited he is to do the work

@brycechessum4684 Год назад

Originally that Austin Healey had the A90 Atlantic engine same engine used in smaller trucks the Chevy is a perfect upgrade

@dennisschickling2249 Год назад

Moon..... COME HERE. Insert any other dogs name and that sounds like every garage in the world. LOL

@IronTrapGarage Год назад

Haha so true !

@dennissheridan1550 Год назад

Twer it me I would put a mildly built "409" torque monster in the "63". Those scalloped valve covers signal "power" and go fast. Later on in the video I see he has a "409", and it's a "63", he could put that in the 2 dr. with a carter 4 holer and a 4 gear and have period perfect street/drag coupe.

Did the interior ever get finished never seen a update video

No had to pull it from the shop. Having another friend do it soon we hope!

Does Jim do side jobs besides just friends. If so how do we contact him

Jim is basically retired. This may be one of his last tops/interior Jobs. Sorry!

At the 9 minute mark, why doesn't he use the backup camera? 😂😂😂

@IronTrapGarage Год назад

It doesn’t have a backup camera.

@terry3665 Год назад

Jim seems like a cool guy but how does he work in all that clutter?

@Macbetula-yl8wq Год назад

wow it's not British any more.

@bobvalentine8927 Год назад

I'd love to have that

@pappabob29 Год назад

You just "KNOW" instantly when you run into a man to respect. Jim, obviously, is one of those men !!! "Totally shitty" has its place, but, there's lots to learn from this guy !!! Pay attention and learn/grow !!! I'm sure that top he creates is going to be "frosting" on your car !!! Those Camaro Z28- 302 motors were "factory hot rods" !!! Absolutely NO QUESTION !!! That hydraulic ground 265 horse cam is a great idea. I have a 283 that we had a custom ground 12/18 cam hydraulic ground in a 57 Chevy. Has the great idle sound, runs really strong and needs no periodic adjustment. When I was a kid, those "padded" custom roadster tops were much more common. They were commonly known as "Carson" tops. Don't know the "origin" of that term but it was what they were know as. As I recall, they didn't fold. They were "lifted" off. 👍👍👍👍⚙🛠🔩🗜🔨✌🖖🍺🙃😉
