I would never want a car built under one of those crazy deadlines. I don't care what pros are working on it, when they get by with no sleep ,mistakes happen.
This is awesome that you save history. My first marriage , my wife had a 1970 Barracuda convertible with a slant 6 ,slap stik, and 8 3/4 rear. Very rare care back then. I miss that car every day.
@@larryrothrock4488 And who said they didn't? 🤷♂ I was just stating the fact that many of those Sema cars are kind of rushed together pieces of junk that are only build for the show. I know there are some nice ones, but most of the time...
Love the humor. When he asked him about a zipper in the back of his pants, I would have just had to have replied, " To make it easier for my boss." Lol.
I really think you should do more of these older cars they were simply magnificent and if you could restore some of them the world would be a better place we'd see the art and craftsmanship of what car making used to be
Beautiful car, nicely done. But, I noticed a few possible errors. Now my brother, had a 57 Plymouth Fury. Of course they are very similar to the 58. With certain upgrades, as manufacturers will do each year. The colors different 56 and 57 we're White. But there were other changes from the standard Belvedere. They had 150 mph speedometers, rather than the standard 120 miles per hour. Also the wheel covers we're unique and only available on the fury. One other small detail small detail what's the fact was the fact that on the front fender guys Fender guides, were gold balls. Also, all of the anodized side trim was gold colored, and so is the grill. Thank you Bruce Leon
Not that it is relevant to anything, but. I dug out my first edition of Christine, a novel about a 1958 Plymouth. The photo on the back cover shows Steven King posed with a 1957 Plymouth.
That's funny because another King novel "From a Buick 8" shows a 53 Roadmaster, but they switched to the 322 V8 nailhead that year. The only 8 was in the Special.
This video served to remind me why I quit watching GYC. Worman is so ate up with himself. He is the Michael Scott of the auto shows. Very narcissistic, all the time putting others down just to make himself look better.
My friend and I built 3 of them two years after movie came out. Sold all three the first night out on town. Some where in Delaware ohio there are 3 to be seen again
I would restore classic cars with added crash resistant reinforcement to the cabin, floor, roof, side panels,and doors. Substitute the old steering column to a modern safety steering system, and add seat belts , crash sensor relays, and air bags. This will take time, and no crazy deadlines. The result will be a 5 star rated customized classic, tougher than any modern luxury car in the market.(no need to remake anything) Thanks.
you guys went to all those lengths, body off frame, re spot weld panels to make it look factory and then you "sculpt" the quarters with bondo??? WTF?!!
It doesn’t matter how well you do filler work. It’s going to crack ( some faster than others) no matter what. Metal and plastic obviously don’t have the same properties so they flex/shrink vastly different especially in temperature changes and vibration. I media blast car bodies and can’t tell you how many times I hit a bondo spot ( I call them blind spots because it was unnoticeable at first) and the paint may have held onto it but the metal underneath was rusting because the filler separated. If you’re wanting a pristine car either you hardly ever drive it or plan on it needing to be done in 15-20 years again and it’s not because they are wrecked, it’s because of paint and body issues 90% of the time.
Marks built a ton of awesome mopars, probably more than anyone. But Christine is my favorite. And it was the Hellaphant that put it over the edge for me.
Putting filler in that thick will eventually get all the other people looking at their restorations for large amounts of fillers . That's not good Mark
So Ive watched a few of these episodes the last couple of weeks because I think the cars come up beautiful. I love seeing classics being rebuilt. Unfortunately Marks personality has worn thin to the point where I simply cant watch anymore. Shame as Im genuinely interested in the cars but there is too much filler of him carrying on.
Your lifetime achievement award should be learning how not to disrespect your employees and how to treat people properly this is something that you will never get because you wouldn't even think about trying to do the right thing
For the money you're charging you could have a metal expert sculpt and beat a new rear quarter panel.I bet Joe martin could make one out of the correct gauge metal.
It's a good thing something came of that Sema car...I've seen so many horror stories of them like 2 yrs later getting stuffed in a shed nvr to see light again..,or they are so modified that they get parted out and the rest crushed...just something bad
I love the jobs you do but quality control needs to make sure the lines run together better on the trunk and the trim around the hood. That would bother me.
Mark since you only have so much time left on this planet. Why don't you have another entire crew to build twice as many mopars. That way when your gone the world will have been blessed by your badass mopars. Maybe you could restore moat of the cars in your grave yard.
They’re lead sleds. Powerful, but heavy and slow. Todays boosted 4 cylinders destroy these old cars in the quarter mile, unless it’s a money car specifically built for drag racing
Christine should have been Pro Street. Otherwise, that beast motor really doesn't belong. An LO23 factory Hemi Dart tribute car would have been perfect.
You can't build a great car and be a reality TV star at the same time. If they knew they'd be revisiting Christine for shoddy workmanship later then they shouldn't have worked on her at all. In the previous Christine episodes all they did was fawn over the body, the paint, etc. Not one of them said, "Btw guys, she'll be back." In other words, they tried to slip one past the owner.
Let me get this right. You were going to put a big ass hemi in the car....but you shrugged a shoulder and say hay that old ass front suspension is perfectly fine lmao. Time to upgrade
this car , 70 brown hemi coronet convert, Mike Hills white, 70 superbird and a few more ,not to mention the rebodied orange 71 phantasm car ,, ... rush rush rush so it can come back from poor paint jobs, sinking putty , body work cracking, ,,..Bill Golbergs cuda done yet lol its only been 5 years ..i gotta say this is more of a body shop than resto shop.
If you did correctly, you would not have used filler or mud as you call it at all. You would have used lead as they did in those days. That would have made it a sema car. Shame on you for doing it the way you did. And just to think people walked past that car in that car show thinking that you were a professional 😄
Just by reading the title... Filler cracked because you used it wrong. Filler should not be used to cover the whole body or large parts of the body. It should be used to fill in deep scratches and factory seams. Need to get back to shops that are actually good at metal work. Too many half ass with filler.
Back in the fifties they didn't even use Bondo cuz it didn't exist I don't think why not use lead and sand it down do it like it was supposed to be in the fifties
I really like this show, and I do learn alot of things. But people, in the few comments I have read, say they like the humor Mark does, they think it relieves the stress level. NO IT DOES NOTHING but raise stress and agitates. It would get old to see/hear this crap everyday. Don't get me wrong, I love to have fun at work, but not all the constantly. I want the show to flow, I just don't have time to listen/see his silly voices and faces. It gets old real quick. I hope the employees make real good money to put up with his crap, cause thats the only way I could take it. Maybe its the years of being a school teacher that has made me this way. Everyday a clown in class thinks he the next Comedy Central major attraction. And it got real old after so many years of it. Sorry that I needed to say this. I repeat, it is a very good show other than the silly humor.
Everybody wants to call themselves a body guy when whipping up bondo and there first mistake is there not weighing the bondo to spec !! Yes folks its measured in weight Bondo/ Hardner !!
I'm sorry been doing this my whole life you don't even mix that plastic right and there's much better alternatives than USC body filler that stuff sucks better off using Upol Products or Roberlo far superior than USC
"FILLER"=shitty bodywork sure i know a little bit is needed for a final but for there to be so much that it ruined the finish on the car says that the whole car is suspect for crappy work=what else was just smoothed over or skimped on, NEVER do shitty work as this car and the quality has been seen 66k times at the time im posting this comment =nothing like letting the world see just how crappy your work is
If one builds a car to show quality standard, it is built to a quality standard, not to any kind of time schedule. Otherwise, all one ends up with is a poor quality shit box.
What a tribute to Mopar for giving you a thousand horses, Hack a car together Building Bondo bombs is easy. Thats what they used to do 40 years ago Today you are supposed to do it right Another hacker exposed Wonder how much power it'll lose with the air filter under the hood eating all that hot air? This is a failure of ego
I would never want a car built under one of those crazy deadlines. I don't care what pros are working on it, when they get by with no sleep ,mistakes happen.
deadline.........they build these in a couple years dont they
bog a mistake😂🤔🤫
This is awesome that you save history. My first marriage , my wife had a 1970 Barracuda convertible with a slant 6 ,slap stik, and 8 3/4 rear. Very rare care back then. I miss that car every day.
If the filler cracked alone from the trailer ride, then that was probably way too much filler
Half assed job for sema. Not the first one and not the last one that is just done to "look good" and it's junk underneath.
@@makpsv yes but at least they took responsibility for it and did it correctly kind of showing people what happens when you rush a job

In the Heavy MOPAR intro, looks like we have a '69 Cadillac with Tunnel Rams.
I've just found this show and I am already loving it.

Their was multiple vehicles and motors used most of them were other vehicles under neath and the body's were a variety of 57-59 fierys used
I like that you owned up for the body filler debacle. I forgot how much I enjoy watching the show.
This video served to remind me why I quit watching GYC. Worman is so ate up with himself. He is the Michael Scott of the auto shows. Very narcissistic, all the time putting others down just to make himself look better.
FYI You're still watching gyc.

Love watching these videos, just wish they were in order. They're scattered, like something else I know... Lol.
That's so you order the series on MotorTrend...
Myiagi imitation was hilarious :DDD Thanks Mark for the laugh!
Repaint 1/2 the car?
If that much was stripped off you'd be repainting the entire for free car if it was mine.
No excuses..that was some shit workmanship..own it..
It's always "we didn't have time" bullshit.
I believe they did. They never had to show that.
They just did. They didn't have to post this...
Didn't mark do the restoration prior?
Man, i think it would be a BLAST working for a man like Mark!! Dude has to make the stress level go WAAAAY down on some days!!
you guys went to all those lengths, body off frame, re spot weld panels to make it look factory and then you "sculpt" the quarters with bondo??? WTF?!!
The POOPBOX is a 62 Galaxie Convertible. I HAVE ONE! lol
WATCHED CARBS WITH OPEN VACUME LINES, BLOWN ENGINES, AND NOW CRACKED BONDO, DONE WITH THIS SITE. SHOULD BE CALLED JUNKYARD CARZ!
Pretty damn good Sylvester!
Can't believe they done that. Doesn't look very good on a professional shop
He knows one Brand very well.
Christine is my all time favorite movie ever!!!

This show is much better since the “Mark is angry” episodes have gone away.
Marks built a ton of awesome mopars, probably more than anyone. But Christine is my favorite. And it was the Hellaphant that put it over the edge for me.
Sad the Chrysler performance era ends the end of this year, NO MORE PERFORMANCE ENGINES WILL BE BUILT.
Sure wish somebody would edit these down to show only the portions where they are actually working on the cars.
Yes, your right and get rid of the constant grade school sillyness!!!
Putting filler in that thick will eventually get all the other people looking at their restorations for large amounts of fillers . That's not good Mark

what an awesome gift

what’s the paint code on christine
is it legal to have the windshield so dark ?
“We didn’t have time because of SEMA”. Aka we screwed this up and need an excuse why.
I'd love to see a Christine car built like it was described in the book 58 Plymouth furry 4 door with all wheel drive 😀
WRONG.... WHAT BOOK DID YOU READ?? LOL
@@jonrajsl291 it was a Four door in the Book, not sure if I remember mention of four wheel Drive.
In one part of the book it does say that her front wheels pulled her. I can’t remember the exact scenario, but do recall that in the book.
The four door Plymouth fiery doesn't exist there's a car model that's shares the front and back end but it's not in the Plymouth fiery family
Way too little time spent on metal ALWAYS results in less than optimum results.
I would have used lead not lazy body filler
For the money you're charging you could have a metal expert sculpt and beat a new rear quarter panel.I bet Joe martin could make one out of the correct gauge metal.
He's a real life Michael Scott
It's a good thing something came of that Sema car...I've seen so many horror stories of them like 2 yrs later getting stuffed in a shed nvr to see light again..,or they are so modified that they get parted out and the rest crushed...just something bad
Christine is at Barkways UK my boss has seen it.
The show sort of jumped the shark as they all do. You can see all sorts of "craftsmanship" at the Sema
I love the jobs you do but quality control needs to make sure the lines run together better on the trunk and the trim around the hood. That would bother me.
Heat the material up if you want it to sit down
If I ever win the lottery, I promise, you'll be building another one.
Mark since you only have so much time left on this planet. Why don't you have another entire crew to build twice as many mopars. That way when your gone the world will have been blessed by your badass mopars. Maybe you could restore moat of the cars in your grave yard.
I'd like to see some 1/4 mile times on these awesome cars. Just a couple runs?
these guys are bench racers... no idea what to do at a track.....
They’re lead sleds. Powerful, but heavy and slow. Todays boosted 4 cylinders destroy these old cars in the quarter mile, unless it’s a money car specifically built for drag racing
Remeber that 1966 Chevy they blew up in that GM commercial ? I bought all the parts.Could I have the estimate ?
Nice looking Ford convertible!!!
Mark does know he got that Mopar award because he's given them a shit load of free advertising right?
What sound deadender is that? Thanks.
Christine should have been Pro Street. Otherwise, that beast motor really doesn't belong. An LO23 factory Hemi Dart tribute car would have been perfect.
Where is it now?
You can't build a great car and be a reality TV star at the same time. If they knew they'd be revisiting Christine for shoddy workmanship later then they shouldn't have worked on her at all.

What brand sound deadener he use? Couldn’t understand what he said.
Second Skin
No you don’t have the hellephant anymore he sold Christine it and the motor in it
But I though Christine could repair itself. I am starting to believe the movie was not actually true.
That bronze charger was my grade school buddy's car Justin Messenbrink
unless it was leaded more than an 1/8th of an inch of filler will fail. Even then lead can if not done correctly.
I get "triggered," as they say, each time they mention sending car "to the mud room."
The red you guys used for Christine is not correct. The paint in the movie was actually Hot Hues Scarlet Red.
According to whom?
also why they did put the helifant motor in this car in the first place...that was just stupid
If he is all that why does his body work suck so bad? Oh and BTW he made the same mistake they did in the movie Christine was a 4dr..
Let me get this right. You were going to put a big ass hemi in the car....but you shrugged a shoulder and say hay that old ass front suspension is perfectly fine lmao. Time to upgrade

Why did they put a 4L60e behind that engine? Trying to take the record for how fast you can make one have PNNNNNN?
Kenny G that was hilarious
Marc was missing Darren at that time
If you would use lead, like you are supposed to, instead of plastic, this would not happen.
Definitely sema ready.
If you did correctly, you would not have used filler or mud as you call it at all. You would have used lead as they did in those days. That would have made it a sema car.

When will you do a video of a 72 Sebring Plus with a slap stick in the floor my first car
30:37 Is that a Supra?
Yeap!
But they even made the plaque with an M for Mark.
Wish they'd edit too the cars. Hard to watch the foolishness, because it ruins the content I tune in for 😏

We could totally do without mark warman.
Only original once,,,,then they are Bondo Buggies...good reason to stay away from this old junk.
10:41 Does it even have coolant? 🤔🤨
