I’m fired up about this new product and glad we made it happen in time to install in “Eagle”. Don’t miss the Father’s Day sale on merch and thanks everyone for following along 💪🏻!
That’s some high class 💩 right there 💯👍
Hey maybe I missed it but does the guy who cooked for you have a website or socials or is he an employee? if he does Give him a shoutout! Having watched the creation of most of Cleet's cars, this thing is going to be Flipping Fast! Amazing design and Fab wwork!
Has the Pat Musi 959 big block show up yet🎉🎉.I hope that's what he runs.The SMX engines are having all kinds of issues so I know for a fact he isn't using Steve Morris again,even mullet is getting a non Steve Morris engine because garrett is sick of it breaking down
Don’t work too hard on the car , ol piranha mouth won’t maintain it properly anyways.
@@Tango-delta89 I have been welding and fabricating since I was 13. My dad had a chassis shop until I was about 19. Then I rented a shop and started doing anything race car related I could.
As a Australian it’s strange seeing the “Happy Fathers Day” comments as we celebrate Father’s Day on the first Sunday of September and unfortunately it feels like it’s been getting suppressed over the last couple of years.
In saying that, HAPPY FATHERS DAY for all my American Fathers for this weekend and I hope you all have the best day possible 🥳
Happy Father's day, my friend.
i was tripping at that aswell after the mothers day race being mothers day morning here in NZ
For the people suppressing it they've got their day it's April 1st
There is a certain being mentioned in a certain book doing what he has set out to do. anything good is beat down, It is written down. we are in those days now. Those who know, know.
In America thousands and thousands of dads will spend this weekend moving their kids to or home from college. Happy Father’s Day now get back to work 😂
Dude you guys are proving what quality means. This is a motor trend tv show waiting to happen. I love this series. Keep em coming.
Let’s go 💪🏻
Motor Trend will then be in charge and the drama will be scripted and in each episode. You’ll regret it, keep doing what you’re doing!
@@clintprice2123 latest example, Derrick from Vice Grip.... I immediately watch every new episode of VGG, but after the first episode of his show on whatever that was, I stopped watching as it definitely wasn't the same free form work.... I kinda feel bad not watching, but I'm sure there's an audience there that didn't even know he had/has his own UA-cam channel/s
@@clintprice2123 took the words right out of my mouth. Keep big business out of it and stay true to the homegrown quality craftsmanship
Very true. I didnt think of that. I like all those types of shows until they start scripting all the stupid drama and fake humor. I wish they would just stick to the original content. That’s what makes it so entertaining.
I could watch Dan all day making tubes and explaining all about it. Master craftsman.
That "LIKE A BOSS" had me rolling! hahaha
😅
I wish someone talked about me the way Danny talks about that tubing bender😂
😂😂
No kidding
Best comment! 😂 I loled and had to explain to my family why i was laughing
I'm so glad Garrett had you guys build his car, allowing me to discover your channel. I'm loving your videos, reminds me of back in the day watching American Hot Rod.
Let’s go 💪🏻
Never thought I'd become the "Roy" of our shop but here I am, killing it! Thanks for watching!
@troy-from-cjrc man he was great, and so is T-Roy haha
This is by far my favourite Car building channel on UA-cam. You actually get to see the things you’re interested in. Everybody’s little tricks everybody’s ideas and how they think about the tricks they have . I like it.
So amazed and the level of thought and intent you guys put into your builds! So impressive. Cleetus brought me here but CJRC entire team’s level of professionalism including the quality of editing and video production is very impressive once again. I’m a fan for life. Well done guys!
Let’s go 💪🏻
And some wonder why it takes so long to build car
The quality is going up with every video. Hiring a real videographer was a genius move. You're turning those of us tuning in because of Garrett's car into a genuine long-lasting audience, and capitalizing on the opportunity without a moment's hesitation.
Talk about seizing the moment, man. No wonder your shop is so successful, with business decisions like this driving it. The transparency around everything from price to design choices, the quality of work, integrity of the team, obvious camaraderie in the shop, and the dynamically changing content with every (frequent!) upload are just astounding.
I hope you see what you've got here, and don't make the mistake of selling out to a TV or streaming service. Thanks to your whole team for putting the effort in to make better content every day, I'm really enjoying it.
Thanks for watching. We are going to keep pushing the channel and putting out as much as possible
Adjustable steering column is just what the giraffe ordered, if this works out well I have a feeling lots will be asking for one. Watching you master artists work is amazing, and yes it is art.
As an engineer myself this is Bespoke Engineering at its best done the old school way which is a skill that is sadly being lost. 🏴 Here loving the content
This is the definition of "All we do is win!". This is the quality of work that you can only achieve with a leader and a pleasant work environment. Fantastic job on building your team Cameron.
I've never seen such a skilled group of guys so willing to share their work like you guys are doing. Absolutely loving this.
I just love seeing Danny work, an absolute craftsman and does an amazing job at explaining things.
We need to Neural-Link Danny and download all this information....👍
They need to get him that notcher for how well he explains everything
Dan fan club... the 1.125 percenters...😂
Dan the man with the plan.
I want on-screen Name flairs, I am near deaf and struggling to catch everyone's names. This fab crew is fabulous. 😛
I love how our cam guy gets right in there and shoots this like a tech center educational program for distance learners.
On screen name flares is a great idea man!
The level of expertise, teamwork, leadership, and quality has exceeded anything I’ve seen in a very long time! You guys are adhering to the specs that I would expect on a Bonneville run or a freaking NASA piece of equipment! Love the ingenuity! Thank you so much!
I've been a welder / fabricator for the past 14 years and I've never seen as good of work as these guys do. Okay I'm lying I'm not a welder / fabricator but they still do really good fucking work!!
Well, at least you are not ashamed to admit it. Some guys think because they welded on a new exhaust hanger that qualifies them as a welder/fabricator.
Hell, I've been building parts for the past 40 years. My skill set is nowhere near the level of these lads.
Being in the automotive fabrication industry for 30 years
The amount of knowledge and passion put forth in this shop is hands down impressive!
Not many things fire me up but watching everyone poor effort and love into this car gets me fired up and
Make me very envious
Good game CJRC good game
Side note
The fact Danny runs around with a tape measure in his pocket shows he’s been in the game a real long time lol 😂
The craftsmanship is second to none! So amazing to watch.
Let's go!!! Happy father's day to all the dads watching !
👍
don't be a letsgobro
@@djb5320 let's gooooooo!!!!! Better?
@jeadams2428 let's freakin gooooooo!
@@djb5320in Australia we don’t say it but fck it, LETS GO BROTHER…!!!! 😂
I can’t wait to see this car run, and a smile it’s going to put on Cleetus‘s face
A team that takes pride in their craft!!!! The years of craftmanship in this team is awesome!! Keep up the great work!!!!
I hope this build blows up your channel and your merch store. You guys are incredible! Still mad respect to the cinematographer! Looks and sounds amazing.
🙏🏻💪🏻
Really appreciate hearing what everyone is thinking about as they’re building - it’s really interesting and helps show just how much skill, thought, and effort go in to all of this. And it highlights all of you being cool people! Seems like you have a great culture in the shop, and it comes through in the videos.
This was another fantastic one!
This is the kind of work that is pushing the sport to the next level. Not just the ability and the team but the willingness to show you every step of the way what they've learned in their career. From the tips and tricks to the dos and don'ts. You had me subscribing from the 1st episode. Keep crushing it!
Let’s go 💪🏻
I appreciated Dan showing off some of the tools you guys use. That roller for the brake lines is something I think im gonna get for building brake lines on stuff like my sandrail
It’s an awesome tool.
All of your guys are good...however there are several who are truly special. One of those who is a great teacher is Danny. He could hold week long (or weekend) workshops if the work ever slows down. He has a great temperment and has a vast amount of experience in the different metals. Another thing that sets Danny apart is he is a natural story teller. He has a solid set of pipes that make him easy to listen to and has a brilliant attention to detail without being OCD. His wealth of knowledge is obvious and he commands a great deal of respect once you see his work. Keep up the great work Danny!
This is a massively talented team. Clean workshop and beautiful work. It’s a joy to watch you work. I know very little about cars but love them and live vicariously through guys like you and admire your work.
I legit could listen to Danny and how to build stuff all friggin day. Every shop needs a fella with a wealth of knowledge like him.
Should do a Danny's tech tips or something
The camera guy is stepping your channel up. I remember from the old days which I still watched, but just even better now!
It’s so cool to see what a shout out from Cletus McFarland UA-cam channel can do!!! What a time to be alive
It definitely gives a boost, but these guys putting in the work on making amazing content(and cars!) makes us all keep coming back!
Yall are absolutely killing it with the uploads. Thanks for everything and a early Happy Fathers Day to everyone.
The production and quality gets better with every video. Keep the great work up everyone at CJRC
Let's get these guys to 100k subscribers.
These guys are too smart for me.
Let’s gooo 💪🏻
I know the willy's video didn't perform as well as the eagle videos. But I do think it is important for the longterm health of the channel, to continually mix other videos in.
This new favorite channel!
We will definitely be doing a lot more including our new shop build starting soon 😎
That's a pretty cool idea on the cooking!
Thank you Cameron❤ I received my retro T-shirt today. Awesomely fast delivery to the UK. I will wear with pride at Santa pod Raceway. Love your content brol💪💯 You've got an amazing team together and it's a pleasure to watch 😎👍
Just so you know brother, Santa Pod carries legendary status here in the U.S.. 😃 Anybody that gets to attend regularly is instantly a hero. That means YOU! 😃😃
Thank you for the support 🙏🏻💪🏻
@@videditorEB1 besides watching NHRA on TV or UA-cam, my only experience of drag racing has been Santa pod. I've been going for 30 years now. Would love to experience some events in the USA🤛
I've heard Bakersfield in march would be a great event to go to by a lot of the regulars at Santa pod.🙏
@@Julian.Bingham Funny you should mention that.😂 My Dad took me to a Bakersfield Smokers Meet in 1966. I was 4. I met Don Prudhomme. Been hooked ever since. It’s kinda run down now, but Sears Point (Sonoma) near San Francisco has a beautiful facility. Been dozens of times. Hope you can make it over sometime. Have a fantastic day.
@@videditorEB1 I would love to come visit brother. 😎👍
I struggle with sorting out getting there. Where to stay. Driving on the wrong side of the road or should I say the other side😅. I would like to goto the Bradenton shoot out if that happens in 25? Then hopefully tie it in with the Freedom Factory the weekend before/after. But as I say getting the notice to get it to work is impossible. I have to book my holidays at work nearly a year in advance.🤣
New sub here 👋 Usually I stay away from other channels building stuff for Garreth/Cleetus, because I don´t want to have any "spoilers" before he uploads his videos. But after seeing a few tempting thumbnails every time I open UA-cam, I couldn´t help myself 😄 And boy, am I glad I did have a look at you guys work.!
Theres just something sooo satisfying in watching things being built, instead of just seeing the finished product being used (Well, that´s also pretty cool ofc. haha). And we rarely see that part on Cleetus channel anymore, so this fills a long time missed spot, in my opinion. 👍
I like how you switch from one part to the next, and then back - followed by a BBQ break and then a bit more work, works perfect in a video 👍 Also the bouncing back and forth off ideas/solutions, that shows the respect for everyone's opinions and skills = Absolute gold when it comes to job-satisfaction 👌👏👏👏
Danny bends lines like a Pro!! I worked for a instrument shop for years, and the senior builder at that shop used the same methods. He even had a box of templates just like him.. Good Stuff!!
Love the way you guys really showcase the tradesmen at work.
I love these long videos! Never skip the details 👍
If I didn’t live so far away, I would gladly come and smoke barbecue for you guys on the offset. I got a 94 gallon on a trailer.
Cameron, I love how each of your guys are becoming so much more comfortable in front of the camera. How cool it would be to come to your shop and just sit and watch and learn from you all!! Keep up the GREAT work!
I really dig the way you made those brackets to mount the panels and rear tub. 1- they look bad-ass, and 2 I admire your attention to detail in shaving every single oz of unnecessary weight by trimming the spaces between the holes. Very nice.
Down with the trickness!!! Thanks for watching!
love to see the quality improving every single time. 10/10 boys
Danny reminds me of one of my past uncles. He was the guy who knew everything about cars and motorcycles and remember him talking me through an oil change when I was 4. Was going to teach me to weld and to maintain cars. Unfortunately he passed away before we got there. But he had that same attitude.
Don’t let em fool ya guys Troy & Danny are 25 years old, fabricators have a hard life 😂🤣 haha just kidding yal, I actually own a welding shop up in lake county in central Florida 🤙. Love the content you’re putting out brother, I like seeing other local shops putting out top quality work!
😂
Danny is an OLD SCHOOL craftsman, and I hope someone there is following him around JUST to shut up and learn.
people simply cant fathom what you learn by following someone who's ELITE at what they do, asking some simple questions when needed, and soaking it in.
top stuff !
The attention to detail is incredible. Everyone seems to be passionate about their job. Nice work!
Appreciate you guys for sharing both your wisdom and advice. I learn a few tips and tricks with every vid, thank you! Last, shout out to the gentleman filming and (I assume) editing. Top notch!
love that these guys are as experienced as they are but never afraid to try something different
As a mechanic, I've done my share of some basic fabrication but, to have the experience of being able to learn next to you guys is the stuff car guy dreams are made of.
I'm absolutely loving this channel. Phenomenal craftsmanship, dedication, and pride in your work. The videography, music, and editing are top notch. I'm learning and laughing at the same time. Great work guys!
Awesome video as usual and happy father's day to all the dad's. Hope we all have a good weekend lol
A wiseman once said; "I could be wrong. I've been wrong." Love that attitude in a high level mechanic.
I tried mechanic'n once, didn't go well.... I'll stick with fabricobble'n. 😂
@@troy-from-cjrc I'm Dutch, i mix those up sometimes 😬😄
You guys are killing it this youtube stuff takes off you will see. You guys do amazing work 👏 sending love from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
I use baling wire or a coat hanger to get my bends figured out then just measure and copy it over. But mine are not hidden as well as Dan’s. Truly a master of his craft. 👏👍
Troy with the Tounces the Driving Cat reference for the win 😂😂
He don't want to kill anyone, he just wants to drive!!!
I laughed, even if Taylor didn't.
@@mattmanyam in Taylors defense, he has to put up with my dumbazz all day..... 😂
I've been bending tubing for 20yrs and Dan bends tubing the same way I do simple accurate full proof and he's the first person I've ever seen explain it that way piss on the formula keep it simple
Yep another banger!!!
Really enjoying this build, the up close and personal with each team member doing their part and explaining it as they go. Can't wait to see the rest of the wheel tubs get installed. Thanks for another great video, and congrats on the prototype!!!
I can't wait to see the tubs done too!!! Thanks for watching!
4K extra subs in a week.
You guys are making lots of people happy. Luv your work. If we can use a tiny bit of your information for our own projects we will be better fabricators. Support from 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Killer artistic works as always !. Ever growing number of subscribers tells us awesomeness of this channel ! 👍
Happy Father's Day to you all from Japan ! 😊
Even being in my upper 50's, I've learned from this build on freaking UA-cam. Thanks Cameron and Crew
Gotta love to see the channel grow and the video production getting better and better each video. Keep up the good work 🤟🏼
Ive never built a car, i have enough trouble changing my own oil. Hahaha.
Been watching Cleetus for years, came to this channel when he mentioned you guys.
I watch every video you put out. You guys make a lot of the process digestible and understandable, even for a mechanical dummy like myself. Steve Morris does a good job of that too. Props to you guys, excited to see whats in store for yall, I'll be watching!
Thanks for coming over to the channel 💪🏻
On a second note.. Ya, that steering Colum is friggen Next level !! It’s not just super functional, but it’s a Damm work of art to look at.. That’s got to be kept visible in the final assembly 🙌🏼🍀
How the steering moves so well with those multiple angles is amazing 🤩
😎
Broooo your gonna make bank off the tilt column congrats on a sick ass idea and made it work 👍🏻
I mean it’s half a mil, but I love how EVERY detail is looked at from multiple angles my multiple people. AMAZING!!!
Such an insane level of craftsmanship on the Eagle. Awesome to see it being built...thanks team. From New Zealand
First, I've been machining and fabricating most of my life and the level of craftsmanship that goes into every part of your stuff is top notch. Props to you for doing it the way it really should be done!!
Second, I hope people realize the caliber of work you're doing on such a short time frame!! I've seen builds of this caliber be YEARS in the making.
This project in craftsmanship and time frame is absolutely incredible. Thank you for showing us the whole process and congratulations to you and your entire crew for being one of the most impressive companies and craftsman I've seen in a very long time!
Very well done gentlemen!
Thank you 🙏🏻
The Attention to detail Is just amazing.
Dan reminds me so much of my father
rip dad
for someone like me who isnt a tradie its fascinating seeing the process in greater detail than i see on most youtube channels, I'm learning so much just watching this channel. CJ Race Cars is becoming a new Favorite of mine. Well done lads and keep up the good work
Let’s go 💪🏻
I don’t understand 90% of what you guys are doing but it’s clear you all are expert craftsmen!
Thank you for sharing the brake line knowledge and methods. I've been dreading the brake lines on my C10 project... but after Dan's help, I'm ready to knock it out!
Let’s go 💪🏻
You guys are killing it with the videos. The video guy is doing an awesome job, Can't wait to see the new shop car.
Might do a video next week on it 😎
Alongside cleetus, and finnegans garage hands down best youtube content going at the minute. And inspiring me to get back on my projects and pretend I'm 10 thousandths as good as these guys
Let’s go 💪🏻
I Stopped watching those goofs
Amazing to watch a set of guy love the work so much. I have had many jobs but only few I liked. Nice work filming and editing. You sir are amazing also.
I’m just a dipshit family man out here grinding and paying bills. You guys are insanely talented and inspiring!! Just picked up a T-shirt from you guys site. It’s a fight for time to be out in my shop every night while having a young family, so being able to tune into these builds really helps with project layout. What an amazing team you guys have.
Thanks for supporting the channel.
Glad to see this channel getting the recognition it deserves, I’ve been here since Justin’s first car and remember when this channel would get a couple thousand views you guys came a long way with your content keep it up Cameron and the rest of the team at CJRC
Thanks for the support we are trying to keep growing it 💪🏻
Morning coffee and 45 minutes of absorbing amazing content. I feel so “at home” on this channel. Good job men. Happy Fathers Day!
Let’s go. Happy Fathers Day
Man you guys do some beautiful work, I love seeing all that roll cage, beautiful symmetrical that's huge to me. The old guy doesn't need a protractor he's so old his ruler is a piece of paper
I'm completely in tune with Danny. Life is too short for sloppy brake lines or electrical work!
I’ve seen 4 cars cjrc built and all I can say is wow. The details are amazing, all the welds are perfect. The window mounts will make you cry just thinking how much time they took to make perfectly symmetrical. I saw Steve fasts shadow 3.0 and it’s nice but it’s nothing like Clay Cole’s Camaro
Thanks for the kind words. All the body details fall on me, window lips, window frames, doors, deck lid, wing, front clip etc, I love me some scallops, So it's nice to know the effort is appreciated. I had the chance to do a couple things on the new Shadow and it is a beautiful car, of course I spotted a few things that I'll be copying too. Thanks for watching!
I'm curious about the black Escalade I keep seeing in the background, lol. I see a what appears to be a cage, what's going on there?
Cage and chute mount.
@@troy-from-cjrc Thanks, I knew something sneaky was going on there. It almost looks stock from a distance.
Dan's the Man!! Yall great content real good time feel the shop has. Great team!
The video quality on these last few videos are all top tier! Love this!
Great progress guys 👌🏽 Danny truly is an invaluable member of the team!
The way they look at what there working on without saying anything the mind always going and thinking about the next move is priceless quality over quantity love the work
My mind is always racing! Thanks for watching!
Keep up the awesome work guys!
Inch-and-an-eighth Danny brings a lot to the party.
Everyone seems a good fit, CJ you seem a top bloke!
Love watching some 1 so passionate about the tools they use from different industries 👍
Finally a great representation of how a car building series should be and not filled with a 30 day time crunch build with scripted drama. Giving the fabricators time to assess how the finish product can be its best based on it's requirements and allowing for quality not to be compromised with time restraints. Looks like the best work environment that allows you to enjoy your job. Well done!
Huge respect for the fabrication side of this build. This man knows whats up and is super confident in his decisions. Perfect choice for Mcfarland Racing
The personality you guys show on camera is incredible. I'm blown away by how comfortable you guys have gotten so fast.
Awesome content guys thanks for bringing us Into all the time consuming parts to a large purpose built drag car you can really see the experience in everything everyone does and the amount of knowledge you guys bring to the table just great and thank you guys keep up the hard work
Thanks for watching
I feel so much more connected to Eagle just watching this. Like later when I see the brake lines il remember Dan making them. I appreciate the fine detail a hell of a lot more. Thanks for sharing this journey with us
Nice work on that collar! I'm sure Cletus will REALLY appreciate it. Put your name on everything!! That way when he's is talking about his cars... your name always comes up! 😎
Petrified titanium! 😂😂
Really loving the content, quality of video and editing, plus the camaraderie of you folks. Thank you.
Clear powder coat.
Easy to match.
Cracks can't hide as easy.
Welds look awesome!❤
