Lowering a Hot Rod | Boat-tail Speedster Pt. 23
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
- In this video I lower the frame of my custom speedster chassis by about 4". This will help handling and drive-ability by lowering the center of gravity, and more importantly make the care more closely resemble the vintage racers that inspired this build. Total hours for this project now total 712
Re-upload. For some reason the first one didn't have audio
Did you lose much wheelbase
MacroMachines hey i watched the first video i didnt care it didnt have audio it was cool to watch you work on the frame
Glad you kept the epic intro. :)
I'm still completely blown away with this build.
“I cut the frame again” that had me cracking up bro😂😂 love your work keep it up brotha!
Great job there, it is good to see young people playing with steel rather than there Xbox...big T UP and Subbed
it's like watching project binky.
Without the ‘getting the funk on...’ ^_^
Seriously though, this kid has mad-fab skills...
Thanks for fixing the audio issue that shows dedication
I don't matter what you're designing, the process is the same, Two Steps Forward, One Step Back; keep up the good work.
Hey, at least you figured out it needed to be lowered before for made the entire body. Looks to be coming along great so far!
Altering a frame ain't for the weak hearted. You got a LOT of talent.
It helps that he made the frame in the first place, Which in itself takes alot of talent.
@@danielauen7790 also helps it was like his third time altering it
Oh that's what you said! Makes scenes thanks for the up date. Great project love following along thanks
I saw the First minuite of the video 10h or so ago. And it disapeared😂 Nice to have it back now and watch the whole thing
Great job, excellent skills.
part 25
nobody:
vince: I cut the frame again.
Butcher-Bill's bad planning gets a hack job!
It was a great intro though. 😂👍🏻
Your working on that YOU GOT A FRIKEN TANK TANK IN THE CORNER 😃😃😃
It was great to show us the process you followed to lower the frame. When possible, could you mention the size of the material being use to build the frame; the tools you are using to do the work? etc.; top the ones that know, is of no help, but to the ones that are learning, would be great help, and greatly appreciated. Thank you for sharing your work.
early video said 2x4 square tube.
Always excited for a new video! :D
What is your college major? I hope it is Mechanical Engineering. You are incredible!
Enjoying your amazing project but a bit worried about the chassis welds. Will there be any reinforcing of the welds? I'd hate to see the car break in two over the first bump!
Clever way to keep those at home duplicating your effort from keeping up! 😉
will you need to move the hairpin mounts to higher on the chassis?
great work btw.
"Last time I have to" You still have painting or powder coating!
Yaknow... I watched the WHOLE episode with no audio, and then watched it again with. :)
the amount of times youve cut the frame are you sure its going to be streight???? Ahh ok youve just answered me lol
Nice intro.
What did you do with that leaf suspension.
Measure twice, cut once.
Any Idea on where you're going to place the fuel tank yet?
👌
Did you just eyeball the frame cuts or were measurements taken but not on video ?
How many inches did you lowered that frame???
Am i the only one drinkin apple juice
4 link rear suspension, air bag suspension
Wouldn't be vintage then
@@thatbuelldude189 Vintage is good i grant you that but safety and comfort should b priority. 70/30 Vintage/Upgrades.
@@glen58316 i would kinda agree
That just dont fit with his build
Peroid correct builds have there place in this world
I don't know if you just wanted to show off all the tools that you have but a reciprocating saw would have been enough.
X member?
Don't think they thought about centre of gravity and roll centres back in the days you are replicating, so careful that you don't make it look too modern
They did in a roundabout way
It was more trial and error then though
Just a bit of fettling no biggy
That didnt look like ANSI schedule 40 or 80 malleable steel pipe you were bending 🤔
Best part is when it gets to forming temperature it will spring back to original!
Did you loose wheel base?
Am I the only one smoking a cigarette while watching this?
Part 75, i cut the fram again ver. 34
Would it not have been easier to move the sprung perch crossmembers up?
How much did cutting and welding the frame weaken it?
What happened to the center crossmember (AGAIN)? Do you have to make a third ... or is it fourth?
Seems you've lost ground with each new video.
That is how she goes
He is doing almost everything form scratch
Sometimes you got to backtrack
This is the most ghetto frame work since B is For Build.
Only thing missing is the work wasn't carried out on bricks.
I can't tell you how bad I cringe watching you use that huge saw and welder in shorts and sneakers. Be safe please, if not for yourself for those who will watch these videos and think they can do the same thing and cut their femoral artery when the saw kicks back on them.
