    I think the Brass goes so well with the green leather and the Burgandy paint. An awesome touch to the amazing Midnight Special. Great job Karl.

    I absolutely love brass and copper. They just feel warm to the eye.

    Your craftsmanship is unbelievable, but the explanation of what you are doing is what I find more impressive.

  • @Berend-ov8of

    Let me be honest. I didn't think it was gonna look quite that good,... but it did and it impressed me.
    Only when it's finished it becomes visible that there is all these other parts it's like 'talking to'.
    Not just other brass parts, but also the lettering and the shape touch of the louvres and such.
    This shows that being able to clearly visualise the end result up front is an art in itself.
    When you're done it sits there totally natural, as if has always belonged there.
    It doesn't just add something, but it kinda matures the whole car.
    An absolute score.

    Drilling holes in brass can be tricky. It wants to pull or grab. Using a hand punch is safer or putting a blunt vertical edge on the drill bit.

    You gotta go give Fitzee a class in templates, he just despises using them for some reason and I love poking at him and saying……hey Fitz, Karl would’ve used a template on that! 🤣

    It was a kick to see the Red Wing Shoes banner at Bennetts Customs. I wear Red Wing boots and the factory is only 165 klicks from my house. Great work on the brass. Polished is best.

    Cool car, that’s one of those that even if it’s not very powerful it still feels like you’re going really fast cause you’re out in the open and it’s probably loud and just such a sensory overload 👍

    I think you need to make a large crash helmet and use the old screen as a peak. With Bennett’s and make it custom lettering. It would make a fantastic trophy to give away for a best of show.

    At the 30:00 mark, I want to know where that Washington license plate came from. Back in the late 90's when I ran away from the US and followed a girl to Sydney, I brought gifts for people and one of the things I brought was a stack of old local license plates. Makes me wonder if that's one of mine! ha!
