I remember when Most of the bodywork use to be done this way. Body shops, replace parts because it’s cheaper. Kyle, you’re a master.
And yet it is wayyy more expensive now.
yes, disposable culture. My neighbour is a old time body man but he said he hasn't made anything in years. All he does is paint new panels.
I like the original lines of the fenders but after his mockup I'm actually interested to see how his custom look will come out!
I just hope its easier to get the rear wheels off again than by removing the bedside 😂
This is awesome project and I love the direction you are going...
@turboflush, yes, the labor costs more. The skills & techniques all servive & are used, but anything that adds labor is removed. Sadly labor costs increase from poor quality parts from china
I took night classes in the late 80’s early 90’s and several after on auto body repair. 1st thing they taught us was hammer and dolly. I’m very impressed how you massage the metal back. So many today don’t get the hand work and labor that it really takes. Great job bud.
It's going to be cool as hell .The front fenders on the early GM cars carried in to the doors also. You could look at them to see how they did it.
"We are about to embark on a very foolish journey." is going to be my new morning affirmation.!
That and "come back with a warrant" when the cleaning crew bangs on the door of a public toilet should be your go to moves
@@bobbyarcher You are now my new internet hero... So stealing that one.🤣
I remember when I was a little kid 55 years ago. My Dad was one of the last guys in Switzerland that was a trained coachbuilder. At the exam for the master degree they got only a blueprint and they had to build a complicated front fender. The first step they had to build was a template with flat steel stripes, shaping them acording to the blue print, weld the stuff together in a curved cage shape and hammer the sheet metal that it would fit exactly over the steel frame template. An extremely hard task to acomplish.
This is going to be the best Chicken Truck on UA-cam by FAR!
Very cool project;

I tried that and it still did not work.
I really like your vision of what the Chicken Truck will become! It's gonna be a beauty I'm sure. Your modesty is part of your charisma, you DO deserve!
Auto restyling, just like everything else on earth, is about PASSION. Kyle lives the dream, and shares it with us. What a beautiful world.
Hey Kyle, I think all of us who enjoy not only watching but learning and imagining our projects in the future. Last week our community had our annual "Cruise Night" and car show. 110 cars of every persuasion. I'm of a generation where "hot rodding" meant several trips to the "bone yard" for whatever we could dream up. Yes, some turned into nightmares but that was and still is part of the fun. I also believe in driving what I build. No fun hiding them in the garage. Thanks!!
I think the sketchier the car was, the more fun they were to own and drive. Sometimes I think, by design, they were meant to generate nightmares...for our parents !! lol
Looks very '40's/early '50's Buick-like.
Such a cool custom!
Love the chicken puppet! It adds to the entire theme.
Not only one of the best craftsmen and artists but also the best followers. Please keep it up, everyone!
Freaking awsome. Your a mechanical God! I watched before because I enjoy your show, I'll continue to watch now because I need to. Good work.
Your vision is coming true. Looking very nice Kyle😂
Thanks Randy!
I NEEDED A COFFEE BREAK JUST WATCHING THIS MASTER CRAFTSMAN!GREAT WORK.
Miltown would be a period correct stress medication for 1950 sheet metal. Valium wasn't available until 1963
A period correct custom truck build.... perfect!
I love the look you’re going for. Can’t wait to see you put it together.
When Appling fiberglass to the foam board, apply latex paint (house paint) as a protective layer to keep the foam board from melting. Love the project!!!
I WAS around in the 50s. You’re on the right track!
Kyle, this thing is going to be incredible! The vision is there and I have no doubt you can get it done.
It's got a rod and custom dream truck vibe to it. Best build on UA-cam right now. When you installed the ralley wheel i almost rage quit, then you explained it. Whew, close call. Lol
Haha sorry about that!
man thats some vision you have! unreal. looking forward to more
Exciting seeing it come together!
Nothing better than watching an craftsman/artist at work ... really starting to take shape .. well done Kyle !
I love the concept design
I love your vision Kyle, you're quite the fabricator, especially coming from Saskatchewan LOL. Never mind the whiners, complainers and keyboard experts, you're doing the hands on and critics are either jealous or they're idiots so they shitpost. Can't take them seriously. I also appreciate your traditional build concept. Thats when the real innovators and craftsmen were cutting hands and bruising knuckles.
Love it, go Kyle go
Really like the fade away look . Excellent choice on tires and hub caps
2)- I had a number of cars in my day with that front to rear sweeping look. The ones that come to mind the most are the 1953 Buicks and...
Beautiful job.
It's looking good Kyle, I like where you're going with it, might want to study some of the sculptured doors of the 50s and 60s for ideas on how they open, early corvettes come to mind with the wild shapes of those, I know they have a pocket in the front fenders for the "bulge" to swing into and they didn't need a very dramatic line in the gap to achieve the operation, beautiful work as always 👏 ❤❤
4)- Taking the styling Cues from the 1953 Skylark might be just what you're looking fore because...
You mentioned about attracting the best viewers on the internet and I absolutely agree. You hit the jackpot with me and Reen, anyway! ☺☺☺ !
I think you are perfectly on target for a 50's styled custom. Great work !
Truly takes a craftsman to not only restore but to envision , built. and teach. Beautiful work. And Yes you do have a lot of supports.
I am so jealous of your talent. Keep the videos coming Kyle.
It's nice to see the truck take shape. Its gonna be sweet. Love your "grinch" prance as you placed the bed side on the truck.
Carter's Controversial Auto Restyling would be a more appropriate name for your channel! Building dreams and destroying the know-it-all's That's why I watch! 😎
Allen and Poe seem appropriately intrigued by the gifts
The mock-up looks great. You deserve everything you’ve worked for 👍🏻 Merchandising opportunities await you.
Thanks Morgan!
Nice! Your work is amazing
36:20 I tried to buy those exact TIG gloves at Hobo Freight just yesterday! Having discovered the hard way- canvas-back leather-palm gloves are inappropriate for beekeeping. Hobo frieght only had them in Extra LARGE. My hands are not extra large. However, I do have a very large . . . .ego in recompense.
You should ask Reen (Rean?) if she would be willing to help you start a store, I think many of your viewers would be more than happy to support your efforts thru a store. Excellent dancing music. Keep on truck'n Kyle!
I am happy there's no store or merch as with so many other youtubers. I guess this means I've gotta donate cash. I resist that but I also admit you deserve it.
I would buy a shirt or two
Chicken truck puppet and tshirt combo!
The truck is already looking great. Even if it didn't have the body lines shown in paper it would be a cool custom. The fade away look is going to be a challenge to pull off and have look good but I'm sure you got it!
Excellent craftsmanship, and your music choices are superb. Bravo!
It’s far better future all the constituent parts making this new whole than any of them would have had left to nature. Now they are art.
Kyle, it is a pleasure to watch you work.
I'm going to watch the whole build 😊
Looking good with paper on it. Bump it up to poster board and your good to go. Nice work brother. Thanks for sharing your work
You're the man!👍
Do-whap-ditty-ditty, things are looking pretty…Cool boss-man. Cats in hats for everyone! Time to go back to my cell…
Kyle can't tell you how much fun I'm having watching you and Brent do these advanced design truck builds. I didn't see your vision until this latest video . Man you nailed it 👌. So much talent with so little equipment is inspiring to many home builders . Keep it up amigo
Ok have it your way! Jeez.
I’m going to share this with all my friends.
Truck is looking Cool Kyle, 😎
This is going to be amazing! Appreciate the arts and crafts teaser (it was well worth the materials ‘wasted’) and talking us through your thought process. I for one would love a tutorial on how to fabricate gull wing doors but I understand you gotta do what you gotta do 😉
This is gonna be so awesome! It's looking just like the 1/25 scale prototype! The hubcaps are butter, baby.
Go Astronothings!!!
I wasn't sure where you were heading with this truck but with this video I think I have finally figured it out and I really like it , and I love watching your videos . Keep it coming I can't wait to see your finished truck , it's gonna be awesome.
And the evil elf in his natural habitat destroys subject Canadian treasure while dancing to Beethoven piano music. What an evil lowered truck. Nice work Kyle! Respect!! Jim
There is 2 main things that truly bring a classic car to its full potential… 4” white walls and a Fulton style visor on top of the windshield !!! Gangster AF Son !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💯🔥
I don’t know how long I’ve been watching hing your work (the first thing that got me hooked was the underside of nearly all the body of a seventies van) but it remains fascinating and highly entertaining to watch your uploads Kyle, the Chicken truck is getting better every week! Thanks.
Kyle, your hammer and dolly skills are always an inspiration. I can't wait to see what the chicken truck looks like when you're done. The vision for the truck looks fantastic.
The vision is becoming reality its going to iook great watching in the UK 🇬🇧
If Tucker had ever taken off as a car manufacturer, I'm sure his chicken truck would have looked this. You have a good eye!
Kyle you are on a tear! The final product will be exciting.
Classic,similar to my 1961 Borgward coupe,I like it !
KYLE.... there is a tool called a surform,, for shaping surfboard foam, a rasp but you can find abrasive attachments
Taking this build to another level , Lots of hours ahead Kyle but boy it will be worth it .
Lovely work Kyle.
I look forward to your next video.
7)- Opening up the rear outer wheel well (something like the rear wheel opening of the '55 Chevy which copied this styling cue later on) permits the entire wheel and some of its upper black wall above the white Wall to be viewed for contrast. It was beautiful.... Fin.
I'm liking it.
All I can say is AWESOME !
I love your vision
Blocks in rear ,Check! I think the 53-4 front spindles you have, about 1" lower than the others, You could cut 1 coil , or, 49-52 coils are also slightly shorter. Been a while tho,,,,,DUBS
You're doing a great job with that chicken truck, I couldn't understand your vision, but I see it now and it's been entertaining too see you get there.
I’m in awe. I have no words.
the vision is appearing before our eyes!! this is going to be one cool short! nice!!!!
Those gifts are just like your work,Neat...
To boldly go where no man has gone before. Keep up up the great work. 👍👍🇨🇦
You are so patient explaining everything to the nay sayers! I guess its just your nature to be kind to those who don't deserve it. As you say you are finally getting to the fun stuff and I agree! You make me laugh out loud sometimes with your dancing, also with laying in a shower of sparks creating a new smoking jacket. Bravo sir! Nice choices on the music. I get the impression you have studied music somewhere in the past.
Smaller tires in the rear and lambo doors ... I had to be that guy ... seriously I've seen them use 3/4 to 1 inch styrafome sheets glued together them cut with a hot knife and sanded to make forms ... I have to say its lookin like a pretty kool start ... don't take too long between videos ... I'ii get anxious ... great job Kyle ...
Great! Work simply amazing you come up with parts our part cars to get the results you want really enjoy watching
This is going to be a incredible kool truck Kyle ! MAN, you are good!!
You beat on a panel for awhile and I start to think yeah that looks pretty dang good. Then you beat on it for another hour, break out the shrinking disc, then beat on it for awhile more with 3 different tools and I start to realize why all my bondo work was always terrible 😂
Brilliant work and a good vision - will enjoy to follow your build …
5)- The '53 Skylark's front fender swept back towards the rear fender flare at a lower height in the rear so that more of the rear flare was showing and the angle was sharper. This was needed because...
I was thinking something similar. The way it looks now gives me visions of early 50's Buicks.
3)- The 1953 Buick with the most audacious sweeping line was the Buick Skylark...
That's a hell of a cool look, nicely done.
Excellent work on the chicken truck. Will be looking forward to seeing more from 1953. ❤️👍✌️😎 Cheers
This is my hands down favorite in my years of watching UA-cam truck builds. The 29 Ford model A roadster pickup on Iron Trap Garage is a pretty good one too. But this is a total old school custom. Love it. Right on Kyle.
Thank you kindly for sharing Kyle,, 💖🙏💖
Chicken truck lookin' awesome! Chicken puppet always a crowd favorite. The dark Kyle goggle look also interesting. Looking forward to more CHICKEN TRUCK!! 😎👍🐔🛻🏁🏁
I don’t wanna burst your bubble Kyle, but I think big bird is a canary! L O L
I love the plan. Best build on UA-cam at this time!
I really like your hub caps, it looks like they don't need ReStyliing. I don't know what there off ove, but I hope you have 5 of them. It's nice to have a spare. Only 1900 steps to go.
I really dig your channel, Kyle. Thank you for your adhesion to old school customization. I honestly think that you are the only one on YT doing this at this complexed level, especially with lead. Life would be boring if we didn't challenge ourselves. Keep it up, I'd watch 5hrs of you de-munging inner fenders if that's all you did. Thanks for the cat content too!
Sawzall, my favorite tool of destruction. Thank you Kyle. 👍🍿🍺
Wow. That's a great visual for motivation.
This is really coming together . Nice one Kyle
I’m really liking that look, it’s cool and unique. Yea the door is a challenge, looking forward to how that and everything will all turn out. Awesome project 👍
Again Kyle, it is a pleasure to watch you work. You keep things basic, with probably most of the tools we old farts have in the shed or friend's garages and set about doing a professional finish, that would make anyone proud. No armloads of bog (Bondo) but metal bumping at its' best! Onya cobber, you've got this by the short and curlies.
