The moment of truth: does the back seat (or hood) still fit? 😬

Since we shortened the roof 12.5" and had to modify the back window section we're curious if the back seat interior will even still fit. If it does, we'll use it but if it doesn't then I guess we have no choice but to make it a 2 seater. Then we're going to try on the hood for the first time since we repaired the front section. Cross your fingers for us!!! 😬

That updated back window looks so much better now.

Fina was inspecting the back seat ...she is a good girl never gets in trouble..... Jolene have you.taken a ride in your corrvette yet.that is a very pretty cool car.🚗🚗🚗🚗🚗😁😁😁😁

@jimcoplan9502 Год назад

The hood and deck lid should fit just fine. The seat may have to go. Chad has this under control for sure. Jolene is working her magic with the video. Doug is a great addition to the shop.

@darwinfoster7420 Год назад

The seat looks great ..

@George-dy3pt Год назад

What are you talking about? That backseat fits perfectly!

@maricelchristarr3095 Год назад

Need to add shims between hinge and bonnet which will lower the bonnet. As the hinges are in a slot, the shim will lower the front of the bonnet and allow the bonnet to open without hitting in the middle front, also the gaps will then be able to be made smaller😊

@barrybloggs9474 Год назад

No, needs to loosen the hinge bolts on the body and lower the hinge, possibly even tip the hinge forward on the body.

@maricelchristarr3095 Год назад

@@barrybloggs9474 With cars that have the pocket style of hinges, by adding a shim it effectively lowers the bonnet. Shims were actually fitted as part of the manufacturing process on doors bonnets etc. the hinges where mounted to the car adjusts the height to raise the bonnet, whilst the shims lower the bonnet.

Chad and Jolene the Tbird is shaping up most of the cars in the fifty’s and sixty’s the back rest of the seat is installed first and fastened at the bottom then the bottom seat goes in and the interior side panels are mounted in first before the seat goes in

@barriecollins6838 Год назад

Chad and jolene I think that was cool the way you got the back seats to fit back into the car its saved you a lot of your time not having to make some to fit in. It's a shame that the people who tuck the hood off hadn't drilled the hindges it would have been so much easier to get the hood back in the right place. Keep up the great work the both of you 👏 👍

@hughclare-talbot9309 Год назад

Chad you may find that the pivot point of the hood where there is a bolt or a rivet is worn and needs to be replaced. That causes the hood to bee higher than it should be. Worth a check.

@TCW-hw6iw Год назад

Throw a couple of axle stands under the rear frame, that squeak would have driven me bonkers days ago. Its a short drive these days. LOL I'm surprised your putting in the back seat, but it will be a great place for Fina. I think people would be hitting their heads on the rear glass, if not, it will be real close. Looking better all the time. Let Doug paw through the bolts buckets, he may find shims that go on the hood hinges and the same for the trunk.

@kyleheinz6785 Год назад

Once the back piece and back seat is bolted in, I think it will look fine!

@user-zi4go4rx6p 4 месяца назад

Another trick is to open the hood all the way up until you feel resistance then 😊 force the hood up by pushing up the rear. This will spring the hinge thus lowering the hood in front. Works on doors that stick out beyond the front fender line.

@patriotwhitedragon Год назад

Chad you need to take the bottom of the set out and then you can put the back of the set in first then you can put the bottom of the seat back in place and it will work just fine and the upper panel will fit back in to place

Without shimming those bolts on the hood you have the hood front set to it’s highest. A couple of washers if you can get them in would drop it a least a 1/4 if not a piece of flat bar slid in the hinge holders would work before bolting down. Looking good though

@willhorting5317 Год назад

@@jackjfjfjf I am NOT a fabricator. Nor a body man. Only customized (slightly) one vehicle in my sixty years of life. So I doubt that my comment will hold even a thimbleful of water with you. I don't always agree with Chad. But I do actually like the guy, even though we have never met. And I have a lot of respect for both him and Jolene. And I try my damnedest to not criticize his choices and decisions. That being said... You are derogatory towards the fabrication people who watch these videos, and sometimes comment. You act as if... because THEY may not have a TV show, or a RU-vid show, or maybe are not famous.. that they are somehow inferior to Chad. I beg to differ. Having a show, or being famous, does not make Chad any better...nor any worse... than anyone else who has the same skills and the same OR MORE experience. You said that you aren't American, yet you knew who Chad was. I am sincerely happy for you. Although I don't know what being American has to do with anything. This old man IS an American, and if it was not for the TV show, I would have never known who he was. The point is this... Some of those "armchair fabricators" likely know as much as Chad. So not everyone should just be dismissed out of hand, simply because they aren't familiar or famous to you or me. Thank you for your time. Have a good one!

@danielplummer6385 Год назад

Hi Chad, Jolene, & Doug, that hood is a bit of a struggle it almost seems like the right side of the hood is pivoting up on something. Could it be hitting something on the fender part way up where it pivots up in the back and when you push the back down the front pivots up. As far as paint I am with Jolene on this one it just screams flake to me. What about a compromise with black metallic? Otherwise, I don't know why but it seems to call for a brighter color to me if not black. A medium blue, or a forest green, and of course there is always candy red. GM has used black metallic and I really like it although, a little bigger flake than they used would be nice. I made one of those mistakes that all us humans tend to make, I did it big though and it is costly. I thought the 89 Camaro only had one seat type and 2 trim levels and I ordered deluxe seat covers for $600 and put the back covers on and went to do the front and the deluxe trim is a different seat and I have base seats. So do not feel alone on the rare mistake you may make because when I do it they are big! Jolene, great job on the video as always and I will be back tomorrow as always!
