"that's what even heat gets you." Seen it like 50 times now but I still dig watching that cut line disappear and now it's a challenge to find the seam in bare metal. The drip rail shaping was pretty cool too, nothing fancy, just slight pressure while dragging it across your leg...
A tip someone passed on to me when trying to transfer body lines and shape of a panel to template was to use a transparent template. I’ve never looked back. Instead of card and feeling for the lines. Those thicker document sleeves are perfect. Good work fella. Looking the 🥜 🏴
Great job man, people need to understand doing a job to the level a customer wants. Your saving this body and making it something the next person can massage and continue if they so feel the need. Only thing I wish I could buy it for a rainy day 😆
we also have a Beverly sheer B3 , i think b1-b2-b3 are the size and 168 is the model , ours being the exact same B3 but has a completely different stand - you won't believe how much time it will save you
You make the Tig tacking on low crown panels look easy! When I try to tack butt joined 19 gauge steel the two edges melt independently and don't fuse together. I tried with and without a filler rod but its a struggle. I would appreciate some tips. Also are you using a pedal and what current do you recommend for 19 gauge. Finally is tacking with Mig an option prior to seam welding with Tig? Thanks, Mike
Since I'm the impatient type, waiting for the final episode on the power hammer, could you give me one hint. A power hammer has a spring to take up shock, if the hammer travels further than the bottom anvil. Does a pullmax have a system like that or are they rigid, depending on the operator to adjust it properly

I don't get why you don't fix those bad areas on the drip rail? All it needs is a few zip cuts just above and below the bad spot. a little bending, and a few welds and problem fixed. At worst you might have to use a little fill rod to weld it back up. I could have it near perfect in less than an hour, so whats the problem??????
First comment I made, hadn't seen the whole video yet but I hope that wasn't your wife you were talking to in the early part of the video, mine would have shut off the camera, tossed it in the trash and walked out. Amen
I've found Speedway less than helpful, their products wanting and their communications essentially unavailable for the most part. An old friend once said to me when we were talking business over coffee, "There are more than enough crumbs that fall between the fingers of the 'big guys' for a little guy to make a very nice living!". Hence, I look first to the little 'mom&pop' community before I will go to a the 'big bad wolves'!

Dude I wanted to buy it too! Just not the right time
The pins dropping in flawlessly says it all
Great video and editing again. You sure are putting together a solid base or starting point for someone to make a great Vicky.
Love that geardrive speed and custom banner we got our header's for our rat rod from them they are right in Minnesota and so am I
You really made a big difference on that car . It's starting to not look like a car that went over a cliff in an old movie .
Always amazed at your work dude!
You do nice work. It looks good.
Awesome video buddy
you got a-lot dun this time, nice work mate!

any plans to" new build ' complete vicky bodies?
You mentioned before where yo got long radius template before. Where did you get them are they available to purchase?

Pullmax is fixed stroke lol be patient grasshopper! It’ll be a good one
Are you using bear claws?
The screen needs to be recut and dropped a bit, then the doors will line up better where they meet the A pillar
Did your buddy find a home for the disassembled 47 ford?
Yes he did
Thanks for responding. I appreciate your time and the videos. Keep up the good work!
Hi I looked at speedway on line and couldn’t find the drip rails could use help
I’ll put the Link in the description
Don’t beat yourself up over the mismatch panel. Like a good carpenter, hide mistakes with trim and putty and a prayer.
How much do you charge?
What about the huge gap at top of front
Door
I say something about that. It’s not something I’m doing. This isn’t a 100% finish job
We have model A coupe rat rod and the door's don't latch
Would like to know how the pullmax and the power hammer differentiate in there purposes.
Part 3 will have all that
