Hope yall enjoy this series!!!! NEXT ONE COMING SOON!!!
I don't know if I can handle all this noneducational talking....😆😆❤
@@ivisonr slightly cornfused my brother 😂
Can't wait to see the continuation 😊
@@marlinezell639more of these style series?!!
@@adrianberryhill Anything and everything 😁
I love Aaron's smile when he looks at and talks about the new bumper cover. He loves quality products that save tons of labor and time.
Nothing but love for you two. Could you explain how it works when you say we’re not going for perfection and one of you has OCD? 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤪🤪🤪❤️ 40:19
Cats...they're always watching...always!
Great video, as always. Thanks for bringing us along!
I’m from the 🇬🇧
When I watch this channel I think of the American dream, a hansom man a beautiful wife who are both into living life.. respect to both of you, your amazing 👍🙏🙏😘❤️
Auto body work requires a lot of patience to get it right. 😊
When Aaron starts speaking, I listen. Aaron is also a photogenic “Good Old Boy”. The new camera is working out great with clear crisp close up shots. Thanks for showing us the equipment you use.
Thank you for your time.
As a former parts manager at a Dodge, Jeep, Toyota dealership O.E.M. parts are the best way to go for body parts.
That old front cover should burn 🔥 pretty good. 😄👍✌️
I Love this "Feel" of this Project Video Series. Lots of work,,, but, a little fun attitude!
The new nose with those headlights is The Bomb !! It looks like it is at warp drive 6 just sitting there!!!
Im glad to see a new post and your earlier explanation of why you don't post really often. This being said, I really think you should be getting on the 57 you bought at Dickies yard some time ago. The car and Dickies memory deserve this! Excellent channel Content! Keep up the good work.
You both giving either other crap about being old is hilarious... but you do own a Corvette now so maybe you aren't so far from being old!. Lol... Just playing, I love watching your videos. Happy Holidays to you all.
Great camera work I am so glad I can watch the whole episode now.
I am noticing a few differences in this video. Whether it is on purpose or not, I personally like them. Emily , more mellow, Aaron talking more, and being relaxed too. You are so cute together.
It has been my experience that all that work that you put in to the fitment of the parts and finish will be well worth it going forward. Very few will appreciate the hours but you will and that's what counts. I agree with your decision to go with the new bumper. A few more dollars and a nice ride with your sweetie...yup it's worth it. Thanks for taking us along.
Corvette Tip--> When closing the hood, hold it in the middle about 8-10 inches above where it locks. Drop it and both sides should lock. If not, sum-ting-wong...
You guys doing an awesome job putting it back together the right way! Man, sure looks like previous owner treated it like his daily beater car. Beat to fit, paint to match.
Nice jobe you 2 - can't wait to see it wrapped. Stay safe.
Those headlights completely change the look of the car, very aggressive look!!!!
Another great episode it's coming together well can't wait to see the wrap
This is the first video on YT that actually shows what is all involved in making aftermarket Corvette body panels fit a factory car. Most kids just bolt this crap on their cars and it looks like garbage.
The vettes coming right along nicely. Looking forward to the next video
While we all like Emily talking, it is great to hear Aaron talk and do more than shake his head and grunt. Looks good guys.
That was cool to get a peace sign from Aaron while I was in my short wide square leaving Lowe's yesterday. In case yall was wondering, yes I'm a fan, watch every episode.
Awwww! We saw your truck as we were pulling into Lowe’s and then we saw you at the intersection and admired it!
Great to see you too!!! 🥰🙏🏼
It's nice to see how much time you are taking to detail. People think they can just wrap a car and cover up any blemishes and that's definitely not the case. A good wrap job will show them just as if you painted it. Love and hugs from Waco.😁
Love the thermoquad t-shirt🥰
You can get glass beads for fiberglass resin to create a filler material. It's used a lot on boat work. Ought to hold much better than Bond-O.
Anything worth doing is worth doing right. Can't wait to see it wrapped.👍
That corvette is looking good.
Aaron. Talking in day week.
So glad you guys doing good and having fun.
Love the Corvette! They're not massively common in the UK and it makes my day to see one over here.
The work you're putting into this one will make it a car anyone would be proud to own.
Yeah, always gotta feed the Al Gore Rhythm..... So much watching the progress. Can't wait to see it finished and you out on the road enjoying it. Waiting for some parts and then I'm off the hopefully finish the ignition on my truck before more snow flies.
Al gore rhythm hahahahahahaha incredible im stealing this!!!!
I"ve heard that several places before so I can't claim to be the originator...
I had a cousin that was a body man, back in the 1960's thru the the mid 1980's. Shop about the size of your garage. He was very good. So good that the Ford and Chevrolet dealers in town sent body work to him, that require that "extra" touch. He made a good living!! I always thought, "No way I could be that patient"!! I mean, who can sit and watch paint dry!!! lol. Good work to both of you.
Love the Vet work, although the family vids are still our favorites. But this Vet has the mrs and I both wanting to find something similar to work with just for similar events.
Good luck on aftermarket parts
This makes me miss my C5 more, gonna start looking for another one
Positive to the outmost, incredible as nobody as read, uplifting and encouraging comment left for you guys as you are da best!👍
♥️♥️♥️♥️
I so thoroughly enjoy watching you two do all the repairs you do. Can't wait to see the finished 'vette!
You guys have done some fantastic work on the Vette. Already without the wrap the car looks tons better
This is a nice testamonital for using Genuine parts. I sold them for 42 years and have heard many body shops complaning about the aftermarket parts the insurance companies compel them to use.
Thank you for making my morning, Just got my breakfast and coffee and POW!! you guy's pop up. What a start to the day, And bonus on top it's 40 mins long. 🎉👌🙏
It's almost from scrap to new with the work you put into it.
As I am watching your video and your Murder Kitten pops into the background, my nearly identical looking kitten (Maisie) popped up onto my desk!! What timing! Anyway. Happy Holidays to you and all your family and keep the videos coming.
😂 serendipity!! Or something like that
This car is going to look awesome when you get that wrap on it!!
I never talk trash , you two are my fav
Looking good guys. You are doing all the hard work. Probably could have had it sprayed fairly cheap with all the body prep you’ve done but I’m sure the wrap will look great !
You might have to test a spot on the bumper with some wrap. I watch Paradox Styling on youtube, and he winds up having to sand delrin bumpers and spray an adhesion promoter on it before it can wrapped. The Vette is looking AWESOME!
Now see that's how Stuff supposed to fit now y'all got it you got it done I can't wait to see it after you guys are done with it
bodywork is an art. Those talents don't get enough credit.
Aaron’s model pose had me rolling 😂
Great to see you guys getting new projects done! I'm recovering from a stroke that dropped me like a rock 3 weeks ago and 5 days in the hospital, glad to be alive and no ill effects from the stroke other than getting tired easily. Ready to resume my own projects here at my place real soon!
Keep up the great work, and God bless you guys. Thanks!
Hey y’all, it’s Louis. Awesome vid as usual. Aaron you are an absolute genius in the story takes a lot of patience to do what you’re doing with the vet. Can’t wait to see the car when it’s done. Let me also say that you are one lucky dude do you have a wife that is as beautiful as Miss Emily, and U2 work so well together. Love you guys. God bless
Can't afford to work on my own project cars right now so its feels good to see someone else work on there's. Keeps our mind in the car hobby zone! Y'all take care and keep making time for one another. The relationship you have with each other is what makes you fun to watch!
Aaron and Emily, you are the two hardest working UA-camrs around. I love the variety of vehicles that you work on from the boat to the Roxy and now the Vet. Must not forget mom’s MG !! I loved seeing you sister actually working on her own project. Congratulations on keeping your content with love and good feelings with family values. I’m looking forward to many years of seeing your progress.
With you on the mg. As a Brit who loves American muscle, it's nice to see a bit of love being returned 😂
We sure do appreciate that!!!
The key to you two's success is your sense of humor and positive thinking! You guys make a great couple! I can't wait until your next video!
hey y’all, it’s Louis. Just got a chance to watch the vid and Aaron you are an absolute genius in the story and the way that you and Miss Em work together is fantastic. Aaron you are one lucky dude I have watched all of your feeds some of them many times over but I have to tell you that you’re Mrs. is absolutely gorgeous, and I mean it as a compliment. I’m anxious to see What the vet is gonna look like when you’re done.
The vibe is def back in this vid!
Wow! That is a good looking car.
Time and persevering will give ya the best finish, nice to see you guys, looking good, you'll be proud of that when it's finished, should turn out really nice x
So glad you found the OEM bumper cover. Total game changer! ❤️😎
I don't know how much time Aaron has spent in the past doing fiberglass and Bondo work on cars but he is sure doing an impressive job on the Vette. I'm sure many people can learn a few tricks just by watching the videos.
Waiting on the next installment!
Take care,
jack
Y'all have a special dynamic that very few have. Thanks for sharing with us.
It is so great to see the progress you two have made…and that green will look Awesome!!!
I can't wait to see the Datson get a makeover, teasing me in every video in the background.
I cannot wait until the next video!!! I am so looking forward to seeing the wrap on this vette!!!! (My favorite car!!!!)
Love your work guys. The Vette is looking awesome.
I HATE having to use aftermarket parts, usually due to unavailable or extremely overpriced OEM parts. 😡
It's pretty neat when you find hints like the marker bleed thru on the body repair! That's the kind of thing that gets a body excited! 😮😊
PATD! "Pay Attention To Detail"! You guys are definitely doing that and more!! Keep it up! Can't wait to see the finished product! And it would of been interesting to watch you guys give it a bath... Just saying.
Aaron , Emily thanks for a nice video, love you guys . The bumper is awesome. Keep safe . Cheers Cape town 🇿🇦👌❤🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thanks for another inspiring video I love the thermal quad t-shirt back in the day had a big block Chevy with a tunnel ram with dual thermal quads all my friends thought I was nuts then I really made him look I had two Quadra Jets on a tunnel ram they thought it would never work it actually work great the things screamed have a great day
Love to see you guys using an ozzie Rode ready ❤
It's looking good ya'll. Can't wait to see it with the wrap on🎉
Great job you two! Glad to see you taking some of the stress off of you and Letting @adrianberryhill do some of the editing so you guys can focus on getting her ready for your trip.
The fiberglass bondo you are using will hold up well. I used the same product on a " it needs no work just bolt on and go" hood for a foxbody that needed the corners worked over like your fenders.
Good luck and keep up the great job and the positive attitudes and keep that laser focus on getting to your goal A aron!
I can't wait to see you guys wrapping. I'd hope to learn how to do it
I enjoy all of your content and the way that you fix things, the good ole country style is you figure it out and fix it. Keep it up.
So I hit pauss when I was watching as you were pulling the mirror as I was going out to get dinner, and well when I returned and looked back six hours late I had to do a screen capture...i'll send you the freeze frame and you'll have a laugh I suspect.
Your patience fitting those aftermarket parts impresses me on a cold, Norwegian sunday (-20C/-4F).
I'm told that green cars are old fashioned, but that sparkling green wrap will make your Corvette stand out! (And I'm not a Corvette guy).
Hoping for more working/rebuild/restoring videos in the future!
I suspect you are well on the way to finding the awesome in the Vette! And soon, it will be Greeeeen!
When I did bodywork 20 years ago, we had a product just like what y'all are using called Dura-Glas...Same color and its 100% better than regular bondo-like filler...
The new bumper is a game changer. Great progress.
Can’t wait to see final product
so beautiful undercarage EM!!!
WOW! Great job Guys! Those headlights look SICK!
Love the little kitties too!
Great work guys.
Love the thinking chair
Hey Emily and Aaron 👋, the car is coming along great. It's always good to take your time and check fitment. That was a big win on the bumper. Thanks for sharing, and have a great day ✌️
Really enjoy watching your videos looking forward to seeing the end result of the corvette
Cats are always valuable for avoiding mice and other creatures, but your little K9 also keeps good watch, thanks for the video and see you next time.
The new bumper and fiberglass repair is looking good guys. Waiting for the wrap to be done. Nice headlights too.
Like the way you are taking your time and shaping the after- market parts to fit correctly.
Very cool… looking great and can’t wait until your next video:-)
I’m hustlin’ to get it out!!! Thanks for the early view and comment 🫡
The vetted is shaping up
Very interesting 🤔. I can't wait to see the Vett finished. Thanks 👍 for sharing guys.
The day is always better when you post a new video. Luv ya.
Hi. I like the channel, find it to be entertaining. The only thing that gets to me, is how many times Emily uses the word awesome in every episode. Have a good rest of year.
Imma bout to send y'all some new balance shoes and fanny packs if your gonna have an old vette and tease each other about bein' old! 🙄 I would like to tell y'all how proud I am of you two for turning this channel into one of the best in spite of life's challenges. ❤
MY FIRST MOD SUGGESTION!!!!!
That sure does mean a lot to us, we’re working hard one day at a time to make life’s challenges be the most rewarding gifts 🩵🩵🩵
Grateful for your love and support ♥️
And the shoes are a must 🤓🤓🤓
Gasoline Forever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!You Go GIRL !!!!
That thing is going to look goood, when it's DUN.😊
Keep up the hard work, looking good 👍
Y'all...! That Corvette is looking awesome!!!
The minute I heard Aaron say he saw orange peel under the wrap I knew that car was getting wet sanded with at least 800 grit, and I agree put a little extra work in now as it’ll make the final result that much nicer. And I think you’ll appreciate it as well Emily, cause you know if Aaron got it all wrapped and he was able to see those imperfections he’d be complaining about it until he pulled the wrap off and redid it. It’s starting to come together and I agree grabbing that front clip was a great idea and those new headlights look sweet
