    Thanks for sharing, Travis! How wonderful it must be for you to begin this project without first having to repair years of rust damage! I'm also very impressed that your friend has collected so many parts this build will require! Brilliant! Enjoy! Be safe!

    That body is like experiencing a "Time Machine" !!! Those doors are the same doors that Henry used on my 29 Model A CCPU !! It's nice when they shut with the two pronounced clicks !! Like you said. this would be a "VERY FUN" build !!! Looks like he's gathered lots of very nice parts as well. That Olds engine should be so much fun to drive in that light car. Those things had SOOOO much torque !! 👍👍👍👍🛠🔩🔨⚙🗜
    That drill press is a BEAST !!! Too bad they don't make tools like that anymore !! Be sure to clamp that vise down before it spins around and "sections" your legs ----------- or worse !!! ;o)

    I'm not shire why I'm not subscribed how nicely you build or work with metal with bare minimum tool's I do watch your video's all the time. I like how your son and wife get envoled in your builds well at least the truck and your son is learning at a young age. That's how they learn by doing. My Pop's had me helping him do break drums in the early 1970s 5 or 6 year's old pulling spring's holding breaks together or pumping the peddle and holding it to adjust breaks. I built my first car before I even had license to drive. My friend's would have me help them with fixing there car's because they thought I knew more than them. They didn't know I pretend most of the time just trying to fix it process of elimination to find out the problems and got it fix. I was better at body work then mechanical engineering, my older brother was the professional mechanic that did it for a living. Still working on car's even after retiring.

    The spring perches go vertically through the radius rod (wishbone)and through the axle. Not horizontal through the side of the radius rod. There is actually a reason for that.

    Drill press safety note. Always use a vise to hold your workpiece if it cant be clamped, if the vise or workpiece can't touch the column block it with a piece of 2 x 6. If either isn't possible simply rotate the workpice against the column (you observed the drill press preforming the rotation for you on the cross-member wnen it broke thru.
    Be safety proactive first.

    That is a shrinker, stretcher. I have one, also an air planishing hammer an english wheel a brake, a drill press, a bead roller, a huge compressor, a frame table, 2 fabrication tables and three top and bottom tool boxes. With SAE, Metric, British standard(whitworth) wrenches and 1/2in, 3/8, and 1/4in sockets (deep and regular) a, body tools that I have had for most if my life, inherited from my father, I have lead files, several planishing, and finishing hammers, shrinking hammers and vintage dollies. Not to meantion, several minicooper bodies and lots of parts 350 amp tig, and a 250 amp mig, oh yeah and my 28 hot rod roadster, and a 36 Plymouth pickup. What I need is a shop. I would like to move from where I am.

    • @donrippy-ee5ek
      @donrippy-ee5ek Рік тому

      The V6 fits so much better in there than AV8. You don't have to modify the firewall hardly at all.

    I'm partial to the T high firewall embossed ribs, painted would individualize this build. The width may needed expanded and profile re-contoured?

      @waynespyker5731 3 місяці тому

      ​@@garycamara9955 The flatness would add the factory look, add several inches of clearance. Retaidning the vertical beads to clear carburetion or ignition by creating a recessed box? Fill the coil round openings and chrome???

    I wished that all the original stuff was removed that was goimg to need cutting up. Then use aftermarket parts to cut up. They are perfect and original once.

    • @garycamara9955
      @garycamara9955 3 місяці тому

      What aftermarket parts. It's a 26/27 T coupe. Not a common body for the aftermarket. Roadsters yes, coupes no! Nice body, try not to cut it up. It isn't necessary to build a hot rod. I like the Olds, but I personally prefer a flatty. At least it's not an SBC, they are bellybuttons. Are you going to use a radiator shell?

    If ever there was such a thing as a "cool drill press", THAT is it. Easy to see why people call Model T's "phone booths", did people wear their top hat in the car or something?

    I've seen people flip the firewall rather than cutting. Curious why you chose to cut.

    • @RACGARAGE
      @RACGARAGE  Рік тому

      Because it’s not as easy as just flipping. You need to also cut when you flip

    It ain't legal to drive on roads! FMCSR part 397 states that no vehicle can openly throw projectiles powered by tire rotation onto the highways or into other vehicles! So put some fenders on that crate!!

    • @garycamara9955
      @garycamara9955 Рік тому +1

      Bullshit! Cycle fenders maybe, but I'll never put fenders on my roadster. If you want fenders get a Chevelle.

    • @garycamara9955
      @garycamara9955 3 місяці тому

      If a car weighs less than 1500 lbs it doesn't need fenders. Oh yeah; it's a hot rod, real hot rods don't have fenders. Just don't use cheesy mags or chrome wheels on it. Steels wheels with paint and little hubcaps look good. Everyone thinks you need custom wheels, you don't.
