INSTALLING A STEEL ROOF On a 1928 Model A Coupe- Yard Art Model A Build Part 10

- Опубліковано 10 лют 2025
- It's time to cap off that opening in the Yard Art Model A's roof! Started off by hammering out some sheet metal damage at the rear of the car and getting a few cracks welded up. Then it was on to the framing. Used the little metal roller to achieve a nice arch in all of the bows for the structure, a little cutting and welding and it was all in place. Made a template for the sheet metal and transferred it over to 18 GA sheet metal. A little cutting and a lot of bead rolling later, the skin is ready to go on to the car! Sheet metal install and a new visor in the next video!
So digging it
Nice workmanship
NICE work. Gives me a better understanding on how I can build my Model A roof.
I like the multiple ribs in the panel, gives it a great look and more strength, nice work
More great work, thanks for the video, enjoyed watching 🙂
Outstanding workmanship 😃😃
Look at all the stuff you've got lined up! Thanks for doing these videos!
That roof panel looks pretty sweet! Nice work!

Been a while for me to catch up the progress. Damn that roof looks good and well done. 👍
Been watching since part 1 and love your work. I'm from Australia and we've been using Metric since 1973 which is by far a better system of measurement, and find it interesting listening to use using inches etc. All the best to you and I'll watch each to the finale. 🤗👍
GREAT WORKMANSHIP.
Sweet. 🤟🤠👍
Come on brother, I can’t wait to see more vid’s from you!! Love the way you work! Keep up the great work! You inspired me to snag a 30 Model A!
Nice top!
20k 🎉 👏 👏

Can’t count the times a portapower saved me. Very handy tool.
Love it!
Nice
This is extremely helpful for me, thank you for sharing. On my car the roof skin is already welded in without any structure under it (I have no idea why). Do you think I could put a structure under it as is, or would I be better off just cutting it out and welding in like you did? I’m not sure how I could get any meaningful welds on the top side of the structure without access up there
I wish I would have found this after it was done because I am always waiting for more :(
Believe me, I wish I had some time to work on the A too... Been super busy here, I've got 8 customer cars packed in the shop right now, one leaving today, a really nice 55 Chev that I just put vintage air and power steering on. I'll make an update shortly, roof skin is on the coupe, and I just got some engine parts for the banger build....
@@rottersgarage Oh I get it. You have a job to do!
You should use two (2) wipes to remove the grease, etc. one saturated with the chemical where you wipe, the other dry cloth you then use to wipe dry which will pick up the last of the grease, etc. One wipe only gets some much the second takes more off so that you have a good clean surface to which you can sand or apply the primer coat...I would sand the fresh metal for mechanical tooth, maximizing the adhesion level with the primer.
I see you often weld without a mask. Have you ever given yourself Arc eye?
Nice work, but WHY DID YOU WELD WITHOUT A MASK DO YOU HATE YOURSELF?
