- TODAY IS THE DAY! This is one of the most anticipated moments of the build... fitting the body back on the chassis. There's been a lot of changes since it last fit together so we're REALLY hoping that everything is good and that it goes together.... 😝 (this emoji tells it all)

Jolene and Chad.. SO SO happy to see you back on this car.. I hope the .. views, comments and .. likes.. stay at a level to which it is worth your while to stay on it!!! Cheers, Bernie
You guys are very fortunate to have Nation working with you, he is a excellent mechanic 👍
The Bugatti is coming together nicely. I truley love the gracefully flowing lines. Styling that was well ahead of its time.
I see Nathan has a cool 'bricknose' Ford flatbed off in the distance. Looks pretty cool...👍
What a great project. You’ve shown me and a lot of other people that if you what to fabricate a classic car you can do it. But to video this every day on this kind of car is not feasible for TV or UA-cam. I appreciate the fabrication and metal work you show me on other projects. But keep it up as long as it’s good for UA-cam.
Thanks you Chad and Jolene.
Good luck. Watching you for couple weeks now. A newbie. Love what you can do. Watching you with the 56 Plymouth. Just love the particular car as my uncle had that same year and model. I was 7 or 8 at the time and wanted to own it but never happened. Don’t see too many of those any longer.
Jolene and you are a perfect match. Always look forward to the next day.
Chad, Jolene, & Nathan, I would have been really shocked if it had gone on with no issues. Nice work though Chad there were not that many issues. I hope that you took enough off the firewall for it to fit now. Chad it was good to have Nathan there with you he is definitely the guy you want when it comes to another set of eyes on the fitment of things. I hope the next time is a go and everything clears the chassis. Jolene are you getting more excited yet about your car getting worked on. I imagine that hurt a bit to hear about paint on the frame getting chipped off but, unfortunately those things happen when you are dealing with tight clearances on a custom build that has never been completely assembled. It will all get touched up perfectly, you will make sure of that! Great video as always, you do such a good job of making sure we get to see everything that is happening.
You can use 1/2 diameter wood dowels about 6 inch long inserted into each corner body mounts to help align body with frame once down pullout dowels and replace with bolts.
Air ride isn't overrated if done properly. I have 4 vehicles with it currently and dozens over the years and no problems. Remember tractor trailers have air ride and go millions of miles. I'm not a troll just felt needed to defend air suspension a bit. Love what yall are doing. Watch daily and wear my Hiltz hat everwhere
Yeah, getting it to fit the first time was a long shot. Close but no teddy bear! Eventually its going to be an awesome ride for Jolene. With luck she may take you with her. lol I'm glad Jolene doesn't bleep out the occassional cuse word, it keeps the vid's real. Thing that suprises me is the generally wholesome language. I think a lot of that is due to the love and respect for Jolene.
Stay positive Chad. Just small adjustments and some paint scratches. Think ahead of your project and the safety of who's driving it. That's what matters. If you have to do those little things it's worth it in the end.
Trust me I build hot rods...
Nathan's demeanor is a great compliment to Chad's flurry of creativity. The Bugati is looking fantastic and things will fall in place with a little adjusting and patients.

No matter, they're small..... 😜
Profanity included,one of my favorite episodes. I love the actual life experiences. Chad you have a uniquely awesome channel. Jolene is your Vanna White. She is always off camera and doing work. Love and appreciate every upload. Every attempt that you upload is the hard lesson learned. More of these please.!
Chad it takes great vision and planning to build a car from the ground up and have everything work out as close as it turning out. You are truely a master of your trade from every angle, building, restoring and modifying. Great camera as usual Jolene. AKA Rich A Paker, take care
Going easy on yourself,
Six small spots on a hand build
No blueprint body and frame
Your a rock star!Take a bow.
Good work. You and Nathan work well as a team....and I didn't hear Jolene scream when you had to modify the frame again. Thanks for sharing and getting us close to the action, superb videographer, Jolene
The two of you work well together, pleasure to watch.
I still say add some beetle vents to the back of the floorboard and some kind of front vent to the cowl. Owners of the Atlantic class of Bugatti say the worst thing about the car is cabin airflow. I owned a Fairlane fastback and a racer told me he had a problem keeping rear windows in the car, but I explained after he told me he welded up the trunk lid. That Ford left a hidden gap on the back lid of the trunk for a pressure relief.
This car deserves everyone's full attention and must take everything into consideration. I understand that it's difficult for Chad to slow down because he's so worried about getting everything done in an hour but with this car he's got to get out of that time frame.
The car won't ne on the road it's a custom built has to be inspected inspector wants to see every weld.he ran sealant over welds and painted
Chad knows the laws
You are lucky to have Doug and Nathan along for the build, they seem dedicated to making the dream happen , just like you and Jolene. Everybodys doing great work. Thanks for sharing your adventure .
I would recommend, if you get the body nicely fitted, then weld some guides at strategic places to help the body slide right into the right spot to line up perfectly, it will save lots of trouble next time you want to remove or mount the body again.
Duh, get positive @@Jerry-up8bk
@@Jerry-up8bk well I am sure they will be removing the body and mount it again at least once or more before the car would even drive. The Bugatti is one of those designs where in order to do some of the stuff on it, you need to remove the body, which is very different than the Doodlebug which is a unibody.
Pro tip: If you put the jack under the car at 12:00 then lift it up, you can do fine adjustments by pulling the handle to the side. As the jack pivots on the front roller the rear swivel wheels will swing the jack point a couple inches left or right.
That car is a thing of beauty. SO glad to see it starting to get put all together after all of this time. Congrats on the milestone, and continued best wishes for the future.
Nathan is an awesome mechanic
Guys are doing well, and it’s a good time to point out to some viewers is that even after mock up you can still run into little issues, but without mock up it’s way worse than what you are watching here…
Good stuff guys 👍
It's all good fitting things takes time and changes will occur. Great looking ride!
Nathan is a great asset👍don't want to loose him💯
Chad. Looking great. I would consider on the front ends of the frame horn where it is so tight using 3M weatherstrip adhesive and attaching a thin piece of inner tube to protect the paint.
2). Also at the firewall behind the heads making a bead rolled panel to give you more clearance behind the engine. If the chassis flexes you wouldn’t want the engine to contact the firewall and bang or buzz.
Love Nathan, stand up bloke, clever and a true champion.
I tell you what it’s rare having 2 men working in symbiotic fashion. Completing a task and keeping up with each other’s intelligence. You need to bring this man back.
I am an old school hot rod guy, love custom sh%t. Chad you are so amazing at your craft. I watched your tv show but it did not show your real talents. Keep it up, cool stuff. You are at the top of your game.
Great sound now Jolene. You have nailed it with those new radio mics!
This car never going to be done
Oh well David mind the door doesn’t hit you on the way out!
The microphones were spot on works great volume was perfect, well done!
I heard some big shot in Ontario who built a Bugatti just like your.. He was running at the mouth making like your a HillBilly making a Bugatti out of two scrap cars... Pissed me off to hear him talk like that. I saw his build on one of the channels.. He had perfect everything's.. Then latter on I saw the car on Jay Leno.. I donno nothing about the Bugatti.. I'm amassed that that car came out of you brain and there it is. Finely getting the Chassis. The dude you have with your working today is a good mechanic.. Tween the two of Yu's wont be long your lady Joline will be taking her car for it's first rip.. Good Luck with all this Chad.
Wow you guys got a lot accomplished today chad,stuff that had to be done,,you two guys relly work well togeather,,got to see lots of fina today, she was right into it,,lol lol,,hi Jolene your looking good today,,luv you guys,,👍👍😀
Hi Jolene and Chad I really dig the show watch it every day. I’ve been built hot rods 40 years I really learned a lot from Chad on the race car hauler. I think you may need caps on the exhaust stacks that allow water to get in the block. I got so many projects. I’m car poor but I was wondering what Chad’s gonna do with that 35 Bugatti he started. I love it. It is bad ass Doug from North Carolina Bad Company St. rods.
Just minor issues they can't handle. Just to give Chad a reminder to cut some of the aluminum firewall plate off too thats going on the fire wall. Awesome video Jolene Chad and Nate.
I appreciate you keeping real your not hiding anything from your audience all struggles you are running and you overcome the obstacles that you have awesome content because your channel is not fake and in the internet people always want to show how great things are but you don’t edit videos and show everything that happens in the process awesome video today 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You three are an awesome team, look at you go. The dream team! Making it happen.
Nathan is a gem.
Pre ordered kit cars like Morgans that are built on the chassis have more fitting issues so you can't knock the 3rd test fit, especially with all the custom work Nathan had to do with Jaguar engine to get it running. I saw a vintage AA badge at a local car boot sale & snapped it up for Jolene as they look sweet on old rides, or Chad can stick it in the showroom. Wondering if i post it with for Jolene's car care of Chad & crew it will get there!
Hold on to your hats folks! "Could be tight and right". 😚
😂❤
@@Jerry-up8bk Always!😉
How difficult is it to take a tape and measure stuff to see if you have enough clearance?
It's not easy building in 3 dimensions.
Jolene Chad isn't thinking about a few things because he moves to damn fast. The problem with the tiny bit he cut out is yes it will fit close but he's not taking in to consideration the movement that body is going to move because of the body mounts. He has the opportunity to open it up right now because he just put back half what he took off and after bodywork and paint, it's going to rub. It doesn't matter one bit how much he takes out because you will never see it but it's going to be a very bad day when it doesn't fit
Next time try a plumb Bob in the mount holes to align the mounts. Works fantastic 👍
Chad your dexterity with that grinder is beyond belief man.
Only 6 issues? You are doing better than Mr Bugatti himself! And I'm sure that's exactly what he would tell you brother. You got this.
Mr Bugatti didn't have 6 issues, he had solutions
Them skinny cross ply looking tyres look the part but wouldn't they follow every RUT on the rd 😮 be a nightmare to drive on especially the roads we have these days , a skinny set of radials would handle better , mabe your already thinking and onto that ,mabe there just the show tyres 🤔 I guess that's the last thing ya thinking off at moment still a massive job to still do ahead but bloody amazing a thing off beauty a real credit to you guys 👍💯
Nathan is worth his weight in gold, great to have around the shop, multi talented
Wow so happy to see you moving along on that will be excited to see it with a nice coat of paint can't wait to see what color :-). Chad you do awesome work with your helper or Joline what a team keep up the great work.🎉
I just gotta say Jolene props on the sound quality getting better each time 🫨👍🏼👍🏼
Bugatti Bugatti Bugatti ! It is exciting isn't it ! Yeah for Jolene ❤ Nathan is in the house and Chad and him are laying down the body onto the chassi or frame cool ! It's Friday and way awesome day to see this all come together Thumbs-up and thanks for the content Jolene ! It is a great day ! Nite folks smash that like button !
Looking good guys. Shame you couldn't fix the those bits without moving the chassis back out of the way. Might have been a good idea to mark around the tyres so you knew where to roll it back to, to make it easier to move back into the right place. It looks fantastic. Can't wait to see it finished. What colour will it be?
Really enjoy the work you do, and appreciate the efforts to deliver informative content. Love it!
That cars has beautiful lines for days I'll bet jolene can't wait to drive it I think it should be shown at the biggest car shows it should go to pebble beach it's just a piece of art that isn't finished but you already know it's a winner
She looks like a spaceship !
Underside fab looked great!!! Fit was pretty good all things considered.
As a vehicle built to "show" level, the under body structure should be closed in with polished aluminum panels, with designs rolled into them. The square section structure should be bonded to the floor panels with seam sealer, before installing the finishing panels with stainless steel blind rivets.
This show still makes me so Very HAPPY- Every time I watch Makes my life Great
FINA is like a little shark dodging in and out of various equipment, always present and lurking under fenders and quarter panels! All she needs is a little fin....for Halloween of course!
I think it's about time for a good ol hat give away like back in the beginning. Love the Bugatti being outside and almost sitting on all four
No harm no foul, Chad. It can all be fixed. Great job! I love this car! Jolene, you are one lucky woman and, Chad, you are one lucky man!!!
Wheel dollies would make it a whole lot easier
And a plumb bob
So glad to see your back on the Bugatti. Few minor tweaks and it should fit like a glove. Qween Jolene has a smile on her beautiful face.❤
One step closer. Glad to see you are getting it done. 🎉
can't help commenting, a Bugati with a Jag engine, in Canada, and there's a 1/2" bolt on the car! Wonder's never cease!
Great to see the Bugatti getting fitted... you guys are awesome and Nathan is a great addition... I like his positive attitude... Jolene, what can I say... each day great.
Nathan and Chad what a wonderful job all things considered it went really well a testament to great fabrication work. So glad I caught this one.
i can hardly wait to see Jolene behind the wheel of her Bugatti 🎉👍🫡‼️
Very cool work Chad! Victorville CA. 👍
Wheel dollies make adjusting position a piece if cake, that plus dowels or pins or ir long bolts should help w alignment. looking great, keep it up ❤
things sticking out of the guards and the middle of the roof they might be from the moulds if you could shave them off it would look a better just my opinion sick looking project this one can't wait to see it how it drives keep up the good work guys Jolene your camera work is getting very good 👍
These guys are amazing! I could imagine seeing them building cars in time long ago. They would fit right in.
Favorite fifties car is 51 mercury, but there are so many great rides from the fifties wouldn’t take much to change my fav, gears that 3d pic is kool!👍
Man, all cars should look like this.
simple painted on ground centerline to lift would be helpfull
Culmination of a ton of hard work!
Super stoked to see jolene's bugatti getting some attention
Having waiting for to long to see this car in the road.Nice to see the it getting closer.
That jaguar engine looks great in the hood
That thing looks awesome 😎
Proof two heads are better than one. Glad Chad had a competent helper today. It’s close Jolene!
Looking forward too seeing this Chad 👍 won't be long before Jolene's behind the wheel now Vroom parp parp! 😎
Tight and right is what makes the whole build so awesome. Really really like 👍🏻 it and looks great.
What a beauty it is in the daylight!!
Jolene is truely gonna be the queen rolling in this badboy !
There’s a lot of beautiful things in that production. Can’t wait to see that car finished.just a beauty.
Good teamwork gents. Keep it up, home stretch now.
Can’t wait to see it painted in 2027 it’s gonna be a beauty.
Lol keep hating
😂
More like 2127
Trudeau will probably outlaw gasoline before it’s done. So, next year.
Hi Fina ! I had to find rerun cause I missed it 4:00 P.m.
Im looking forward to seeing how the doors are sealed from the weather. Noooo I don't have videos of my car fabrication work!
So good to see a fabricator that can actually weld.
Very neat body, so cool guys.
Nice to see you are getting the Bugatti together Nathan good mechanic
Is one front fender sloped more than the other ?
Looks funny on video !
They should have been straight and same as rear !
In my opinion😮
Probably looks better in person !
Lookin good BOB! Will be nice seeing it with paint.
What did all this start out as?
The engine is from a Jaguar sedan, but that's all I can readily identify. Where's the chassis from - the same car, or something else?
Did you build the body yourself? If you did, that's some impressive work - those complex curves couldn't have been easy.
Two words for you: wheel dollies! Even cheap furniture dollies would have made that so much easier. Great to see the Bugatti back on the front burner again!
Fabulous effort. Good to catch up again, the fabulous Bugatti.
plumb bob your holes easy to line up from a distance
When ever you build a one off vehicle you have to do a lot of spacing for Clearance!
I wonder if David Grainger (owner of the Guild restoration shop in Holland Landing Ont.) the recreator of the Bugatti Aerolith, has an opinion of your Bug- other than "Its nice".
