@@ProjectSupercar Well, I don't know about that! There's all sorts of cell phone skills they master these days. Not the least is the one handed wizards out there.....
The California Stars so cool. Building a car from the ground up I'm sure it's the best way to learn the most. I'm currently in the middle of building a Lotus 7 with my students. A lot to learn.
Ron helped promote a dying art and save it from extinction. Thanks to Ron, a whole new industry has sprung up with young kids now shaping, forming, welding, riveting, etc metals. The skill of this new generation of metal shapers is seen in The Muholland Speedster - 1936 Packard built by Hollywood Hotrods. The car should have been named the Covell special for his help in promoting metal fabrication into the 21st century.
Oh man Ron Covell is the man!
Thumbs up, sadly there's not enough channels like this doing ground up car builds from scratch.
Project Supercar in many ways lost art for sure
@@marcijunebug Yes you're right, kids just don't want to learn this skill anymore, or any skill for that matter.

@@funone8716 LOL, yeah you're right. :) :D
yep, I was just searching 'sema builds' and all I can find is people bolting on parts and calling it custom building...
A meeting of the masters! Cool!
As a Minnesota boy myself, that's pretty cool to see a legend like Ron to notice of what you are doing. Congratulations.
You are AWESOME. I just saw Ron Covell video with you and wow... 2 true craftsmen in 1 room
Ron's a legend.
Agreed and honored to have him visit!
Only 52 likes? What the heck, these are the two of the great metal metal masters of our times?
impactajuvenile I know right??!!
What an honor having him stop by! Just watching the two of you for me is somethin else.
I cant wait to go to his workshop in January! 🙂
Ooooh that car behind Dr. Runge, could we see some more of that please, it looks amazing!
Is he a doctor?

Two nice and talented guys!
Wanted to take his metal shaping class so bad this weekend, but have family commitments!
I like to think of them as VW and Porsche inspired! But man are they beautiful!

There's a video Ron did on the building of the California Star here on UA-cam. Cool to see his process on building a custom designed car from scratch.
Two cool dudes.
For me there are two names of the masters aluminum hand forming, nice to see them meet.
2 of the masters there, I can't remember a time I have not known who Ron is, And what does one say about Chris' work
The prophet himself....wow
You guys need microphones.
