You got this - Keeping as much of the original metal is absolutely the right call. Keep the patches as small as possible. IMO try some spray paint "blending" on the patched spots and keep the patina instead adding a repaint to the to do list.
Yes, I was considering that as well. I will keep the original paint for now and work around it. Let's see would it looks like after all the metal work is done. It might be ok. Thank you! =)
Very well, a very excellent job to remove rust corrosion from the car, congratulations on the well-applied material, showing how you remove the tin, removing the rot, showing how
Your skills and techniques have grown, a lot more thought in the details before starting. It is my favorite body style truck and this one is in good hands.
Pro tip for the beginner bodyman: evaluate the entire project before you start and make sure you have the talent to complete the project before you start! Next pro tip: complete one section or patch of joining panels and tack or fully weld it in place before fully removing the additional panel! This allows you to replace a panel or position a patch in the original location with little to no error. Last pro tip for now: spot weld cutters - they are your friend. Go buy 2 or 3 right away. They'll save a LOT of time when taking factory sheet metal apart. Best wishes! - Max Giganteum
Good morning here Brazil, good evening, what a job it is, it's an excellent truck, it's already looking top-notch, ok, here's a hug from Lau, the upholsterer, and all the best, 10 congratulations on your work
On The right side back corner , instead of trying to find a piece with indention's or making it yourself. Put a flat piece,it won't show any way,since it is the sub piece behind outer shell. Who is going to see it ( YOU) and who ever watches the show. Minimize your work,it's your truck and whoever does like the way you did it,tough cookies. Your are needing strength,compared to looks. Think smarter,not work harder. " Not a show truck" as you say. Stream line where you can and drive it sooner. ** Remember your right corner of truck was in accident , it won't fit perfect ,it has shifted 1/4" - 1/2 " to the left. Split the difference and weld. Seam seal on the part sticking out from the old piece or eliminate it. Once the bed is put back ,it won't show. Durable outcome is your focus.
Excellent video CT :) also Old Ford truck working out nice also Red Paint take pictures of when get paint made I say called it Red Wagon Red be nice bright color to use similar to Tremclad type they make ! Also Music 🎶 Studio in house did and very good to see !
If you are still reading these comments, CT, the 2 indents (about an inch wide from my view) at the bottom of the new panel, 24.01, are the drain holes for this side.
Hey Tim, yes I still have the 65 beetle. I’m editing all the build videos into one start to finish video that will be released next month. Stay tuned buddy!😁
That is so cool you still have it. I'm building a stock 1965 1200 40hp engine or soon anyway. I need to finish cleaning and ordering parts for it. I'm just about done with tools now as far as ordering and receiving in. Been wanting to do this for a long time since the old days when I had a 65 bug in the 70's so it's pretty exciting.
I been working on my 1971 for a while. I did replace floor and inner rocker panel on left side. Replace both cab mounts and bottom mounting bracket for the left front fender,this bracket goes in between the rockers,very much fun .replace the structural reinforcement under the floor, I'll probably pay for it later cause I filled it with 1 quart of tar each side. I still have to do both sides inner and outers cab corners and some of the rocker panel. I also have a 76 F350 that needs floor pans cab mounts cab corners inner and outers just lots of fun
Damn, Mr.CT, things have gone crunchy cut-cut... Da, it's always a problem with corners, floors, those damn water and dust holding spots, which you can never access to clean out the junk. Once you start searching, you'll find it. From a couple of spots to a swiss cheese... Anyway, Pandora's box is opened and you have to deal with it. I agree, some replacement parts are better, some are worse, but you can massage it in place with rudimental tools. For beads you can simply use a flat bar as shape and conform the metal to it or just make a slot form die and hammer it, but you have to take your time to be precise. If you put under the metal some thick rubber plate, you can achieve tricky things. For the roof I recommend you get a flat sheet and make it happen, otherwise it will be probably a money pit. It seems the shapes are not complex, while the rain channel is probably sandwiched in between, but I'm not sure. Many times it is. Take care and keep in going. Cheers.
check the inside surface to see the best you can and coat it with ospho and paint it with something. One of those straws that you put in the panel. Rusted from the inside out. all that florida Humidity. Old fords didnt dip their stuff so the insides of everything is bare metal. @@CTmoog
Once you get all of the cab work completed it might be worth it to leave some access holes for a tube to be placed into the not to get areas. Spray those areas down with ospho with a tube like you would use for cavity wax on rockers. Later on go back and spear some sort of sealing paint using the same holes.
I would say leave the patina even with the welded in pieces. You can try to blend in the body repairs like you did on the bug. What happened to that project 😆? Anything you can do to try and avoid delays and excuses to putting this thing back together. If you try to get everything perfect it will end up like all your other projects…incomplete and forgotten😂. You are gonna end up like one of those dudes on Hagerty Barn Finds. Some old man with a field full of half finished projects and not willing to sell any of them😂. Alright CT I’m just giving you a hard time like any good friend would. Let’s see you finish something dude!
you can get the inner cab corners but there not cheap there 200 for the pair google f100 inner cab corners you will find them and the roof you only need the patch panels for it i have build a lot of these trucks
Ospho? Never heard of it. It's probably banned from us out here in, Nazifornia. All of the good stuff, is. I have good luck with using muriatic acid. I've used a lot on my '64.5 Mustang lately.
@rimasramanauskas8266 again the man likes to take his time doing it we all have those moments not everyone has money falling out of their asshole to complete a project right away
Did you watch the 1965 VW Beetle Series? I spent over a year on that car and uploaded over 50 videos. The First drive videos did very well. The complete start to finish video will be released soon. It's all about the journey my friend. I hope you enjoy the ride! =)
@@CTmoog yeah can’t say that I remember that. I know u have driven some of these, but am just tired of only seeing things get torn down, and then abandoned for the next one. Spent all that time doing the chassis for the Gia then just quit. U have torn apart three Porsche since then as well yet nothing gets put back together…. Just is t fun to watch. Hope u enjoy and your channel does well. I just won’t be watching it anymore
@caseyspirit9385 - interesting...so you don't remember the 1965 VW Beetle series??? My most popular series and you don't remember.....Also, I didn't abandoned the Ghia or the 914 you can clearly see them in the videos. They are patiently waiting for me to get my @#$%@ together...haha! =)

Nice job cool truck Ford good show 😃👏👏👏👍👍👍
This truck is really great. I appreciate your attitude and passion with the project it really impacts the video.
I appreciate that!😎
Hopefully we will see you complete this project to a running, functioning truck😊
Paint it. Patina isn’t interesting enough to keep. You’ll be glad you did!
I think you might right! =) Facotry red or something else?
Patina is old news
@Redf322 - I'm actually thinking some new paint would be nice for this one.
Looks much better now . I hope you gone get these lower section back plates CT .
The 914 engine looks fine .👍
Thanks buddy! 👍
MORE 914 ! ! !

Hi CT, cool to see you starting metal work on this one. Never got an answer back yet? Did you sell the 65 bug or so you still have it?
Hey Tim, yes I still have the 65 beetle. I’m editing all the build videos into one start to finish video that will be released next month. Stay tuned buddy!😁

I'm so happy my 74 f 100 4x4 is not like that no rust I'm from Arkansas
I am enjoying your video's, the only place that I know of that sells the inner panel for the back cab corner is Flashback F100's.
What ever happened to the swamp dragon?

Thanks my freeing! Yes, I might try to make the section with a bead roller. These parts add up fast! =)
get to welding, thxs for sharing...
when it comes to rust......Figure its always 2 time as bad or more than what you see.
Yes, It's crazy how it's hiding under the surface.

Your on the right track man glad I found yea you got this love that desk you have I need 2 of them for my radio room lol later👍🤘
Thanks man! =) Yes, those desk would look awesome in your radio room!
@@CTmoog in my radio Hamradio room I met to say CT. Doing a great job all ways look forward to your videos stay cool man 😎
I wanted to ask you if you did your own background music, I suspected as much! 🙂Great work!
Yes, I did. I'm going to start doing it more this year. Thank you!

good to info...have you tried making the inner panel...? the lower section? maybe with a bead roller?
Use the cab off swamp dragon
I have a bead roller if you want to try to make that part.
yes man, I need to try that. should be pretty easy for the lower section.
U got the replacement, cut the holds away.
👍👍👍
Thank you! =)

Kumlama veya lazer temizleme makinasıyla temizlesen tüm sıkıntılar belli olurdu böyle çok zaman kaybediyorsun😢😢😢
Yes, I was thinking about a laser machine! That would be cool! =)
This isn't difficult. Put the panel you bought in! This truck isn't going in the Smithsonian.
need to order the inner cab corner panels first.
What happened to swamp dragon
Gloves.
I forgot....=)
HEAVY leather gloves. There... fixed it for ya!

You had lot practice from swamp Dragon
Hey, glad you are a musician and not my surgeon, you like to cut everything so much ).
😂
The also sell the whole truck
really? =)
Ok
🇦🇺👍it’s only a daily driver truck. Stop farting around it and just cut out flat panels for the behind. You will not see it anyway
Thanks fish! coming from you that's a compliment! haha! =)
Why do you repair cars if you don't know how to welded or prepare metal?
Why do you care its his truck it's called learning as you go don't like how he does it don't watch plain and simple

leave the bed off and BOLT a Bug onto the frame rails. passengers can ride in the Bug. no, Y0U shut up!
