- In this video I am combining some footage from a few different days. At first I am going to show you that you can easily make a rear floor without any fancy tools. Next the floor is finished and we begin to spot weld all the panels together.

Your skill and talent shows by how easy you make it look.
Another great video! Matt's learning from the best. What an opportunity to pass along years of experience to someone eager to learn! Keep the videos coming, please. You three make a good team. You sound like you're having fun too!
Yes, we always try to have fun while working. Matt will be going off to his regular job soon so it will be just Garry and myself soon.
I like others hope you continue to make videos. I very much enjoy your projects, mainly seeing fabrication. CJ3B owner.
I've never worked with such large panels but I can imagine they can be a challenge. The project is coming along nicely. Great work.
The rear floor is always a challenge, but it is coming along nicely
It’s nice to see the work done in a way that people with more modestly furnished shops can replicate! As always excellent video!
Trying to show different , and cost effective ways to get panels made. A little time and patience can produce great results.
Thank you for sharing cost effective methods! I’m sure other hobbyists like me are thankful as well
All I can say is AMAZING!!! Looking forward to the next installment!!!
Nice to hear from you again, the floor came out great, and Matt and Garry are learning a lot from hanging around the shop. Side panels getting spot welded on in the next video.
Great job as always Brian & Crew, love the bead roller set-up, you keep pulling rabbits out of the hat....
Thanks for watching. I am trying to show folks how to make parts themselves without any fancy or expensive machines.
I have spot-welder envy! Nice work!
That looks very nice, the one thing that is essential on these larger panels is another pair of hands, without that it makes the job so much more difficult. A job like this done with patience really pays of on the final look of the job, nice straight beads and even ends make a huge difference to the visual effect.
I usually have to make everything by myself but it sure is nice to have Garry and Matt in the shop helping out.
That is freaking awesome!
Thanks Jim, glad you enjoyed it.
Amazing 👌👌👌.
I Your all videos download.
Great job m Brian
Good to have you watching.
En mi casa tenemos cuatro jeep willys unos 58 62 63 todos capiot alto y una pickup 57 gracias por sus conocimientos y enseñanza saludos dese Venezuela amazing
He says the bead roller will let me make parts in my own garage. I’m sure it will!
And be a lot easier than the T-Dolly I welded up and ground down to hammer and repair my YJ floor :)
Love all your videos. I have a 51cj3a Your videos help me so much. Please please don't quit making them. 🙏 Sell some swag or charge for your videos or something. I don't know how you have time for these helpful video's but you can bet there are thousands of people that need this information
Looking great!....Glad to see you've found some helpers. One question; At the end of the video where you have the side panels clamped up.... where did you find the two welding clamps over the left wheel well that have deeper jaws than a standard clamp? I can buy standard ones, or ones that have really long flimsy jaws, but have never been able to find any mid length jaw clamps like that.
The clamps are a standard Vise Grip clamp. You can find them at any retailer that carries the Vise Grip brand and line of products.
Do you have the roller for a M38A1?WOULD LOVE TO TRY THIS🇺🇸
Hi, Would you be able to tell me. Width difference between dies of on top of wheelhouse and on floor pan of CJ2A?
Do you sell dies ?
Howmany milimeters that galvanis plat used for?
Could you show how you finished the beads? I've been pre-stretching the panels in the English wheel before I roll the beads with pretty good success, but always interested in learning other methods. Also, how are you "closing" the beads. I've been using chisels and sections of tubing to do that depending on whether it's a round bead or a square one.
Thanks for all the great detail, love seeing your new videos pop up!
Check out this video and it shows a special tool that I made for the pullmax to finish the ends of the beads.

@@metalshaperJeep I would like to see this video but it apparently has been removed
@@timking3085 still up and working fine. Not sure why you are having trouble.
@@metalshaperJeep It goes to a screen that says, "This page isn't available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else." I tried to paste a copy of the page here but can't do it. Anyway, by the way you do fantastic work. I've been into old jeeps for 30 years but now that I'm close to retirement I'm trying out fabricating my own body panels. Have you ever heard of John Geesink from Christchurch New Zealand? He produced by hand body panels for WWII military jeeps and prototypes and sent them the world over. He made a Ford GP 4 wheel steer body for Bill Raasch of Nevada many years ago. I've been friends with him many years and he's been my inspiration to do this. Anyway thanks very much for you videos, very great resource you are providing.

Hey Brian,
I’m looking to make beads in floor for my CJ2A, Do you know where can I find these dies ?
There are no pre made dies out there. You will have to make them, or have someone make them for you .
@@metalshaperJeep Would You be able to Tell me the width of bead ? And depth please ?
