Your videos are the best I've seen for a DIY'er like me. Keep plugging along and your channel will grow. Thanks, from an 82 year-old who is plugging along on a somewhat rusty '66 Corvair.
Robert great video. But I believe you are working on a 1954 or early 1955 GMC .

Yes Sir ! I'm glad the videos help, Corvairs are always cool. They have always been overlooked but they were ahead of their time.
I always learn new tricks and methods from your videos. Thanks for sharing. Gotta get a spot blaster now...
Thanks for supporting my channel, your comment is much appreciated !
I learn something with every video, thanks! Cheers from N Dallas.
That's awesome, Thanks !
Thanks for another great tutorial. Looks like you finally found an aftermarket panel that actually fits without mods, haha. Also, congrats on the 20K subs that you'll be hitting this week.
I guess I got the 1 out of 100 on the replacement panel.... LoL. Long way from that silver button, but I'll get there. Thanks for supporting my channel, you are appreciated !
Beautiful work! You make it look too easy. I burned up a lot of spot welder drill tips and now I see the advantage of the pneumatic chisel. Nice!
Thank you ❤
Wow.
Crazy amount of filler. The whole panel was protruding.
Amazing repair, as usual!
Yes Sir that was alot of filler !
You are excellent at doing and describing what you are doing. By the way Henry, I'm 81 and still at it.
Thanks Henry !
It is snowing in Utah today so I get to watch your videos. Thank you for the great content. I always learn a lot.
I lived in Colorado Springs for awhile, really miss snow days....
Nice, clean job. Whoever did the previous repair spent way more time on it with way less results. Great save . Thanks for sharing
Excellent technique. Thanks for sharing your skills.
Yeah that panel was full of filler Thanks for the comment !
@@rexmyers991 Thank you Sir !
1954 or early 1955 GMC . Another great video Robert .
But if you say 55 GMC..... you understand..... but yes you are correct.
Hey Guzzi. Good video. Lots of good tips for me and other beginners to keep in mind. Thanks for sharing.👍👍🍁
You guys are the reason I make the videos, trying to pass on good, solid advice.
You make it look so easy! Awesome job!
Thant's just the camera tricking you.... It's just putting the work in. Thanks for supporting my channel, your comment is much appreciated !
Always learn something new from your videos. I will be ordering a spot blaster. Thank you very much for sharing.
Thanks for your support !
Man….wish I had this about 2 years ago!😂😂❤❤ Good stuff!!
I tried to call you 2 years ago.... but you didn't return my call...
@@guzzifabrication3448 huh….well, try again. What area code are you calling from? My phone “was” on the fritz
@@guzzifabrication3448 what area code did you use? My phone was frizzled a few years back, so I got a new phone, but same number. Also, tell me how I can reach you, please.
Roofing felt that’s genius! Great video as always
I think it's the same material that was originally used or very similar. Thanks for supporting my channel, your comment is much appreciated !
Half the battle on a panel like that would be just getting it delivered without any dents! Great methods as always.
You got that right brother ! Thanks for the comment !
Here here!
I tried, unsuccessfully, 2 times to get my windshield delivered to my house. Both times they were shattered!!!! I ended up driving to a local place that had a windshield for me
@@SuperchiefApache Yeah I cringe when ordering big panels..... There are a few place near that I can physically pick parts up, Summit Racing is an awesome brick and mortar about an hour away.
Outstanding video dude!! 👍👍
Thanks for supporting my channel, your comment is much appreciated !
enjoying the zen. good stuff!
Thank you Sir !
Your videos are great learning tools I watch as many of them as I can
Well... that's video # 185 quite a few to choose from ! Thanks for supporting my channel, your comment is much appreciated !
Thank you, Robert. 👍
Thank you for supporting my channel, you are much appreciated !
Great video! Now you have me wondering if I should replace the whole back panel on my 53 Chevy as you have done here? Or should I do a bunch of hammer and dolly work as well as replace the cab corners. I think work time your method seems less work intensive.
That retainer makes the replacement a little tricky... but nothing like a new, all metal panel !
Excellent presentation!!!
Thanks @jaymavrick7433 !!!
One of the best how to videos I've watched.
Thank you Sir !!
Great vid, watched a couple of yours now. Have you got any info on the spot sand blasting gun? Brand, what it is actually called? Be real handy for my work! Thanks!
I purchased that years ago from harbor freight, not sure if it's still available, yeah all of the cool stuff is disappearing....
Who makes that air chisel bit? Every one I find is a lot thicker than that. I thought about grinding down one for masonry, but that much grinding would probably screw up the heat treating of the metal and make it not last very long.
I have had that forever, unfortunately I've looked for it and haven't found a replacement... like everything else.... good parts/tools disappearing fast....
Hello Robert. 0:55 How did you fix the bent striker?
The reinforcing brace was pushed in, didn't get a shot of that.... next time
Great stuff ! Always appreciated. Have you ever done a cowl replacement on a 60's GM car ? Thanks.
Not in a video, if I get the opprutunity I will
Thanks
Very helpful
🤙🤠👍
Awesome ! I'm glad you could pull something out of the video you can use
Beautiful demonstration 👍
Thank you Sir !!!
Excellent video!
Thanks !
Great work as always Robert
Thanks brother !
Always enjoy watching your work.
I really appreciate the comment and you support in the channel Thanks !!!
You deserve more than just a 👍....excellent video!
I'll take it brother !
You and Fitzee are making me want to fix the rusty rear side panels on my ‘97 Explorer 4-dr. Only thing is finding replacements has been fruitless.
Have you tried Ebay?
Never heard the spot welds called resistance welds. Huh
Resistance welds are the industry name, but everyone usually calls them spot welds. Potatoe - patato.....
FANTASTIC VIDEOS!!!! Just watched you trick for thinning body filler. Your tips n tricks are going to be a HUGE help to me when I do my Bug!! Keep up the great videos!!!
Thank you Sir ! welcome to the family !
Saw that wheel stand! You lace and true your own wheels? Me too.
Check out my motorcycle playlist !
“ Question “ I have an old 1949 dodge model b pickup cab . Do you know a good source of replacement panels / parts door seals , body seals , fenders etc. ? Maybe some of you subscribers would know
Thanks
Fred miller
Facebook, I am sure there are groups interested in that year of truck, join and ask within the group.
Great help!!! Thanks for the video!!!
Glad you could use it, thanks for the comment !
Excellent!
Thanks MarksgarageChannel !
Thanks I feel a lot more confident that I will be able to do this on my project !!!
Nice ! you absolutely can do it, if you run into problems, leave a question in the comments and I will try to guide you in the best direction.
Great video so helpful
Awesome.Hey, thanks for supporting the channel !!!
what brand is your spot blaster with vacuum
Harbor freight
Great video
Thank you for watching and supporting my channel !
What would something like that cost 🤔
That's why I'm makling the videos, so you can do this yourself.
I would like to thank you for all the great videos for the DIY guys! I have used your techniques on dressing the welds and everything has turned out great!
That's awesome !!!
Show truck metal finish. Awesome. Wouldn't ever go this far on a truck that gets used though
I think this trucks "truck" days are over... Thanks for the comment and support !
Can you put a link to where you got the vacuum media blaster?
I purchased that years ago from harbor freight, not sure if it's still available.
Harbor Freight no longer sells it but Tractor Supply shows them on their website but they're out of stock. At least that's what I've found in North Central Pennsylvania.
@@johngersna3263 maybe they will come back in stocks soon
@@guzzifabrication3448 I hope so. Since we've seen this in your videos, they'd probably sell millions of them. 👍👍
👍
Thanks !!!
Im learning so much from you. I really appreciate it!
That's awesome !
Got a 59 f 100 with gap issues this is going to be helpful thanks.
Awesome, glad to help !!
Amazing work. Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful ! Thank you Sir !!
6:25 I would just drill each slightly then use air hammer. Weaken the spot welds, them they rip off.
Sometimes that works... sometimes it doesn't
I’ve done that….doesn’t always go to good. Then, ya end up ripping the metal.
@@SuperchiefApache It can get out of hand fast ....
How do you get your welds so flat? How about a video on that?
Fit up and prep ! That's an idea for a video !
Answer: preparation!!! If you have a good clean surface, proper setting on the welder, and good technique….all those welds become flat! Practice on some junk metal, practice, practice, practice!
Good work, true master of metal. what diameter are those holes you punched to plug weld?
Thank you for the comment.The hole punch is set at a quarter of an inch
I totally agree!
Thanks @@samuelsmith2522 !!!
Hey Robert
love your videos. I am restoring an old Alfa Romeo Duetto, and still unsure how to manage the job... Watching your videos to get more self confidence 🤦♂️
That's AWESOME !! glad to inspire !
A video listing or describing your materials and most useful tools would be helpful for DYIers. Specific materials and possible sources would be a welcome addition to you excellent videos. I have two farm tractors to restore and your videos provide basic technical education which I believe will be very helpful.
Thank you for the compliment ! I have been thinking of adding the material list and tools.
Thank you for all your hard work.
Thank you kindly.
Good tutorial.
Cheers m8.:_:):_B)
Thanks for your support and comment !!
Man you make it look easy. Great work..
It's the camera brother.... it's all work.
Where do you find is the best place to get replacement panels from?
Unfortunately...... that is a toss up.... if you are asking least expensive OER if you are asking quality AMD, I'm seeing sever quality issues across the board...
@@guzzifabrication3448 appreciate it!
So good!
Really appreciate your comment !!
Amazing job.
Thank you Sir !!
Awesome video!! Thanks
Thank you Sir !!
Where did you get the insulation material that separated the panels? Much appreciated whomever responds.
Home depot
@@guzzifabrication3448That is tar paper used for roofing?
@4speed3pedals Yes Sir that's what I used
@@guzzifabrication3448Interesting. I will look into it and do some home brew testing for what kind of wear I think it will experience. It may be the ticket. Also thinking about Butyl rubber. The material used in tri-five trunk lids is not available, just those cosmetic cut outs. Thanks.
👍@@4speed3pedals
Professional work!
Thank you Sir !!
Where can we find that tar paper stuff?
Home Depot
@@guzzifabrication3448 so it’s just roofing felt? Sweet!! Thanks so much!!
@@RevengeCustomPaintCoThis is what I always use, works great
@@guzzifabrication3448 I will get some when I get closer to that point. Thanks for the advice and videos!!
👍@@RevengeCustomPaintCo
Nice lookin shop!
Thanks for supporting the channel !!!
Avoid vertical video
? is that code ?
@@guzzifabrication3448 no
You lose a lot of detail when you record video with your phone vertical (up and down) vs horizontal (left and right).
There is a humorous video on UA-cam. Vertical Video Syndrome.
@@wayne9518 I will experiment on that one, usually the videos are taken with the phone sideways, I've been using the .05 setting alot. Thanks for the info !
Vertical video?
@@samuelsmith2522search UA-cam for vertical video syndrome.
If you follow any formula.. follow this man’s formula. Very thorough. Everytime. Good video bro 🫡
Bro, I always appreciate you !
