Hey, where is your video one through three? It starts at number four.

wet rag on back cant hurt .. or try braising w cutting torch and filler wire

Very freaking kool Bro!!

More work less gab

Hi, Please let me know if you can work on mine

Can you work on mine?

Do you still have your truck? Im doing a very similar build right now, I know how much goes into something like this. Just figuring out how to fit the explorer dash, a/c, and wiring back into that little thing is daunting. I hope you are well, thank you for sharing your progress with us.

Hey wheres episode 10? I hope that you are alright and healthy.

I appreciate the pain and anguish you're going through I have a 49 Ford and two cabs and going to try to do the same thing hopefully I have a little better luck I like what you're doing and keep up the good work I'm doing a little more different than then you are doing at this time I'm putting a 2JZ in mine and suspension out of a IS300 keep up the good work in an inspiring some of us others to

Nice 👍 work!☆☆☆☆☆

Hi , Fiona. Watching your work , i have been inspired to transform, my 1950 pickup , i will send you some pictures, Thank you , congratulaciones!!

So you ended up removing essentially ALL the explorer dash..this is probably where I will end up with my Willys.

I have a 49 Willys Truck and am putting it on a 97 AWD 5.0 Explorer chassis. I had another rusty cab and tried to fit it and ended up removing everything, and eventually threw it away. So now I'm using another Cab that has full floors and everything. I am very hesitant to cut it all away, where the rusty one was no issue. I tore out most of the Explorer dash, was thinking of using like you were, but essentially it won't work, but I will keep the wiring and refit the dash into the Willys dash (I did this on a 74 Dodge Motorhome I swapped in a 5.9 dodge truck motor and its wiring, I put all the dash gauges into the motorhome dash..) So I've been very interested in seeing how you get it done. The Willys is very narrow compared to the explorer, so I had to cut away all the heater stuff just like you had to. My I suggest less talking and more doing...

I am about to start mounting a 1950 F-1 on a 2002 Explorer chassis and have watched all of the videos on your other channel numerous times. I was afraid you had abandoned your project when you quit posting videos and was very excited to stumble upon your new channel. However, I was concerned when you mentioned that you were going to remove your other channel, as I am relying on those videos to guide me when I start cutting the Explorer apart late this summer (I have to upgrade the electrical system in my garage before I can weld anything out there). Is there any way to transfer your old videos to your current channel? Thanks for sharing everything you have done thus far. Much appreciated. Al

Man u r killing it Awesome work

You’re a pretty lucky guy. You seem like a first timer but you’re doing great. Does your wife know you have more spent in tools than you do in trucks? Haha

I like the cab stretch

You're a braver man than me.

Lovin' the video's. I'm working on a 69 scout 800 and a 72 F100 myself. Never done any work like this either!

Fitzee is the man!

Watch Carter Auto Restyling.

It helps to grind the back on the blade down when cutting a sharp radius

Looks great, I love your videos! Thank you for sharing brother!

Very Nice job I did the same to my 34 ford pickup

Yak, yak, yak, yak ,yak, yak..........................

I had been wondering what happened with this project. Glad to see it finally resuming.

Looking good

Just found your channel. Can’t wait to see the final product. My only complaint is you’re not showing the actual work. Maybe put the camera on a tripod while you work.

That looks good! Really enjoy watching your work. I have a 52 F1. Thanks for sharing your progress.

Check out Carter Auto Restyling for welding tips and body work, he once took a roof out of another car to replace the upper top because it already had the curve he needed. He can give you tips on how to smooth your welds. www.youtube.com/@CarterAutoRestyling/featured

Looks great, Fitzy would be proud. Looking forward to the next video.

Looking good, I had a similar idea for a build with reusing materials like that but to also make the window roll up and down. You can find some pretty cheap phone stands on Amazon, keep the content coming👍

Thanks for the update 👍

the side window looks great, ive seen other people doing the cut and but with a cutting wheel. they cut about 2-3 inch at a time tic it then cut 2-3 inch tic. they do that all the way around.

Watch halfass customs or bad chad both very helpful

For car guys, Watching the actual work would be way better.. just work brother.

👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏Desde Colombia 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

I know you watch Fitzee. I watch him also and give Make it Kustom and R A C a peek. Both do wheel work and a lot more not to take any thing away from Fitzee I like how he does stuff in pieces he makes it look easier it that way but I know it's not. Sorry need to add Carter Auto Restyling he's good also Thanks and I subed

This is why you get thumbs down talking about it to much is not getting the work done.

Alrighty then! Waiting the next video. Thanks and looking good!

Looking good.

you're a brave man, keep it up!

Ok I’ll give you some advice that might seem a little backward moving for you but it will simplify your life and frustration. First off you are fighting the teardrop shape from front to rear, this is simplified by actually cutting your back window out splitting the cab in the rear and actually widening the cab to match the angle and keep your panels in a strait line so you don’t go from flat to angled. This will make the side profile look so much better as a finished and painted product. Second your inside bracing is there to stiffen your door latches keep them and keep that rigid. Hope this helps you out and makes sense. Good luck! Oh and for your roof panel go cut the roof out of an old car and graft it in, your new English wheel isn’t big enough to build a roof panel. When you do that keep your welds close to the edge or if you really want to keep the warping out of it look into gluing your roof panel on! Again best of luck man.

Keep at it . Looks good.

A UA-cam channel named hot rod solutions just did a Studebaker truck extended cab, his bodylines look exactly like yours, if you watch his video series you might see some little things to help you. His door drip rails extensions past the new quarter windows was a huge factor to help center everything. Your doing a great job. 👍👍

Have you thought of extending the drip rail over the new window? Moving the back side of the corner widow will help widen the glass and improve the look for me. 😊 Take a look @make it custom here on YT. Karl is a great teacher.

hi dave would a roof from a 4 door car from the junk yard work? this YT'er is worth watching too Fitzee's Fabrications his last video has some good tips " Crusty's back! Would you believe, more rust repair! " how he repaired that corner made it look easy pus this guy doing the same as you Hot Rod Solutions

Hi, I am building a rear cab for my 1930s Citroen and a couple of tips I would like to pass on, On the English top wheel use a rubber cover like and old innertube this will stop you getting two compound curves in both directions. The other tip would be make or buy a foot pedal for your shrinker stretchers so you can use both hands, I built one myself and it didn't take too long. Enjoying your videos. Cheers Dave

Hi, taking out the innerds of the cab corner is so much unnecessary work, perfection is the enemy of the completed project, don’t do it man

The upper window line should describe an arc that is continuous and meets the upper line of the portal window,
