Those iconic Jeep curves are coming together there Boss. Great job on the tank. Won't be long before there is a 4 man squad all about 1 meter tall piling into this beauty!
looking good ,, one thing I would do when you get too the paint stage . is caulk the seams so you do not get water between your frame grid and your sheet metal ,, still too early too tell but I hope you put a skid plate of some kind under the gas tank .. so when your going over rough ground it don't bottom out and have a rock or tree root rip a hole in the tank .. thumbs up
@@vassdalencustom8689 love your work on the jeep. About galvanizing, I had a project galvanized 12 years ago and it’s holding up great. However, I used some 16 AWG sheet metal, which is about 1.5mm, and it warped somewhat from the heat of the galvanizing process. I’d hate to see your bodywork panels warp.
Starting to take shape! I think we’ll be going down the Jerry Can fuel tank route. Interested to see how you rig up the fuel pump/return etc. We Managed to get a 10l Jerry can that looks about scale, got the Willys type emblem on it too. More spurs at the rear body corners may have helped shape the bend without pulling out in, I’m sure you’ll figure it out. Can’t wait to see this thing finished!
Its the easiest way to go 👍🏻 the engine i use have a buld in mecanical fuelpump so i do just need 1 hose from the tank 😎 thank you! Is there coming more videos from you soon? 😁🙌🏻
@@vassdalencustom8689 Ah yes, I remember you saying about the built in fuel pump in an earlier episode. That makes things simpler. More coming from us soon, got new tyres on, hoping to get rear suspension sorted and begin the drive train shortly then get on to the bodywork, really useful to see how you are tackling it. The front cowl looked like the toughest part, but yours turned out sweet!
Yay! Even more of this madness!😁 More seriously, your fabrication skills are very impressive. Only in my fantasy life, could I do things that are this much fun.
wouldnt you have been better making the wheel tubs first it may of give you better space rather than struggle to get round the rear panels. But bloody hell great job so far mate
I love all the time lapse footage! I love all the footage, but the time lapse stuff really helps me see all the ways you do things. Cool fabrication methods. I'm learning a lot watching. Fun stuff! Thanks for filming and posting!
Looks great! Love the video series, great editing skillz. I noticed no bead roll made on any of the sheet metal (make rigid less noisy etc..), by design or no tooling?
Thanks for explaining everything in English 👍
I’m sure glad Mike Festiva hooked me up with your channel. You’re one helluva good fabricator. Great job on the build.
Thank you! 😎🙌🏻
Hey guys 🙂👍
Me too
It's coming along swimmingly. Nice!
Thank you! 😎🙌🏻
I am waiting part 5 dude
Almost finished 👍🏻 in a couple off days 😎

Thank you! 😄🙌🏻 yes there had been something to see 😂🫡
Man your mini Jeep is looking great!Those curved body panels and the aluminum fuel tank turned out awesome 🙂
Thank you Mike! 🤠🙌🏻
👍 for another great build video and thank you for the shoutout. 🤗🤗 I can’t wait to come and check out your garage and see the Mini Jeep first hand. 😉
Awesome job!
Thank you! 😎🙌🏻
Excellent! Love your work!
Thank you! 😎🙌🏻
Next tank you should add 2 baffles for tank rigidity and to prevent sloshing of gasoline.
I will put foam in it if its going to be å problem 😄 but i didnt even think about it when i designed the tank.. 😅
Awesome! I’ve been waiting for your video series to continue! 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻
Thank you 😄🙌🏻
8 minutes fresh upload of one of my favorite builds and I’m already watching it! Yes life is good today!👏
Thank you! 😁🙌🏻

Thank you! 😁🙌🏻 I was thinking about galvanizing the body not sure jet but that one of my concerns 🤯

Thank you! Yes its madness me and my friends call it a sickness. The need for customize and building stuff 😂

EPIC!
Tnx! 😁
Will we get to see how the axles were made? Excellent work. It's looking awesome.
Hi no i had not startet filming for yt at that time.. only the pictures.. thank you 😄🙌🏻

Thank you for the positive feedback! 🙌🏻😄
You need a bead roller to stiffen the panels next time. Check out, ‘Make it Custom’ channel for plans. 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻
That have been nice! Maybe i will make one and learn how to use it! 😎👍🏻

Thank you! 😎🙌🏻 i got no tooling for that ☹️
@@vassdalencustom8689 Mike Festiva has an affordable bead roller and has done some really nice work with it.
@@gs1100ed yes i have seen his bead roller looks like a great tool maybe i need to buy one and start rolling 😎🙌🏻
Jag förstår varför Mike Festiva rekommenderade din kanal! Riktigt cool!
Tusen takk! 😄
How did you get a manual clutch to work on the end of the crank? Just curious
If you see the part 1 of this project you can see it all 😄
O ok
Please what's the mm thickness of the metal sheet used?
0,9mm thick plate 😄
