eres un dios mis respetos.....you are a god my respect
Good Lord has given you an awesome talent and you are putting good use to it.. . Great video thank you.
Thank you brother! Glad to have you on board!
I like that bucket strainer thing you got. That is a bright idea
Haven’t seen this type of amazing work in big body shops with spray booths and fancy tools. Im very impressed with that work and the results I mean even the way you wrapped up the car man!! Amazing job bro!!
Thank you brother i appreciate that!
The attention to detail and thorough explanation is so appreciated. THANK YOU! Please keep these videos coming.
Your absolutely welcome brother!
This was very helpful and straight to the point.. good job champ💪🏾
Looks amazing great work! Attention to detail!
What I did with my fox was paint the car, I baked it for 30 mins, then in the booth, sand down all the peel with 800. Then Go right back it an hammer it with two more coats of clear then let it sit for the weekend. I’m tellin ya brah, completely flat finish. Beautiful car you got. Very clean work 👍
Thats absolutely the best way to do it!
Much, Much respect to you sir….. I have a couple of fox’s and I know what dedication, time , money & blood it takes to get where you are. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you brother. Glad you enjoyed the vid!
Watched this 6/30/2022. Very informative, completely and simply explained processes, excellent videography and all done with a calm, direct, simple to the point demeaner that kept mine and gf's attention to the very end and I gotta say, WOW !! Such a beautiful paint job !! I would be proud as hell if I came out of a garage with a car looking half as good. My girlfriend and I have been in discussion about what vehicle we are going to try and obtain since we both share a love of cars. 68-72 Chevelle, 1st/2nd Gen Camaro, or 65-70/88-93 Mustang are what we have whittled it all down to at this point, but of course other options as well since they are becoming harder to obtain and pricey as well. Also, we discussed doing some of the body work ourselves (we both have body shop knowledge/experience through family and friends, so it comes down to what we are knowledgeable and confident in attempting and have time for overall of course) so, getting involved in a project together that we both can be proud of but most importantly, the quality time we will spend together is the ultimate goal overall.
Again, such a great job, both with the car and of course, that beautiful paint job. Excellent color choice. 😎
Oh yeah, my gf gave me an A for this, "fanboy love letter" as she called it 🤨 hahaha. Hell, I'll gladly send a glowing comment acknowledging a video of this magnitude. Not just for the superb work you put into your car, but especially your knowledge, passion & proven skill you humbly shared with others, and for taking the time making this video altogether. For me personally, this ☝video is one I HAD to send a comment of recognition.
Best to you and your family.
Great video and car. This is the best video I have watched. It’s clear, down to earth, and to the point. This guy is articulate and cares about what he’s doing. The video is about what he’s doing, not how he’s acting while he’s doing it. This is someone you can learn and pick up tips to develop your own skills.
Really good job.
Thank you Mark...I deeply appreciate that and the fact you recognize my sincerity.
Color looks awesome
Thank you!!
Awesome man! Thanks so much!
Great work Tony, thanks for all the info. I owe you a drink, the next time I'm in West Palm.

More to come!
Thank you brotha. Love the content
Thank you too brother!
Great video. Car looks awesome!!!
Thank you brother
Very good video with examples of How to’s as you come across them, address them and show a way of correcting the issue. I’m not in the paint and body business but am into Mustangs along with DIY videos that able to learn new ways on how to do something’s. I’m 44 and I never thought I would sit and watch a video of this length but yet I am glad I actually did. I feel like came away with more knowledge of not only the painting perspective but how important the prepping process leading up to and the polishing process afterwards is. You earned a subscriber here. Thanks
Thank you Mike! Im really glad you got some useful info out of this!
Looks good
Incredibly helpful and detailed video - thank you! You do incredible work! That Fox is really coming together.

Love the videos Tony D. I recently purchased a 84' fox for my 12 year old son. It will be his car when we are finished with the build. We discovered your videos today and watched them all, best Fox build I have seen. Thank you for sharing your build with us.
Thank you Jamie I really appreciate that brother! Good luck on your build! Any questions always feel free to reach out!
Out-damn-standing sir. What u did with this video reminds me of a term i learnex in the NAVY......ATTENTION TO DETAIL.
U explained the little things that most dont even bother yo mention.
Cant wait to see it when its all back together.
Just found your channel, already one of my favorites!
Thank you brother. new vids are on the way!! Post some suggestions om what kind of fox content you wanna see...
Very great job bro I looks very nice 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Tony, if nothing else you have given, "value" to a paint job. Truly the reason a great job cost what it does. A lot of hard work, long hours and the costliest of all, EXPERIENCE! Enjoyed the video.
I really appreciate that thank you! Im happy you enjoyed the video!
That car is beautiful by the way. Nothing better than a fresh frame up build
Thank you brother!
Awesome job! I have an 1988 LX hatchback and I am planning on the same color. Your video will help guide me through this whole “very long” process! Thank you
Lol awesome brother! Its definitely a journey.. take your time! No rush!

Great work, and yes.....30 years in this profession things have certainly changed. Especially the younger generations lack of skills. Great step by step video👍
Thank you brother!
This was very good work, good attitude, good explanations, and good quality control. I’ve been doing work like this on cars in the paint shop for over ten years now and I really have no gripes with anything here! Not that I was looking to pick it apart hahah love the build man I’m here starting from the beginning after finding your channel recently. Thanks for the uploads and the effort to share with people bro!! Much love from northeast Ohio, it’s snow and ice here still and I’m ITCHING to work on my own Mustangs here at home.
Right on brother thank you! I appreciate having you here! Now fire that heater up and get some work done! Lol!
Wow... Great video Tony D... I tried to do this as a kid (I'm 60 now), and it was ok, but NOT THIS GOOD! Wow.. You killed it - I learned a lot... Thank you for taking the time to do this video. I know it was helpful for me. Great job! Great process.
Your very welcome Tom and I appreciate your support for the channel Sir. Thank you!
Beautiful work & color
Thank you brother!
Thanks very good video
Thank you brother
Great video!! Lot of great information.. subscribed✅
Thank you brother!
Awesome Video Tony!!
Glad you enjoyed it. I appreciate it!!!
I really appreciate the attention to detail both in your work on the car and your careful explanation of the process. Excellent work. Thanks for taking time to share and help us out with out projects. I'm about to tackle this on my own LX Hatch and learned a lot here.
Im really happy to hear this is helping you out! It means alot to me! Get going on the hatch! If there's something specific you want to see let me know, ill see what i can do! Good luck with it!!!
@@TonyDFreestyle96 Appreciate it. I just found your channel and I working my way back from this video. You have great body lines and I can see you probably worked with boards from a tape line. My fenders have very clean lines now but the doors have a softer edge, which is strange because they are factory and not repainted. I'd like to fix that. I'm guessing I'll build it up with filler/primer and board above and below to define it and align it to the fenders. I'll probably replace the hinges and re-hang it first so I'm not creating a line that's built on any door sag. Any other tips on that would be much appreciated if there not in the catalog already.
Bro you are a great painter and teacher I can tell you love to teach and you do it right awesome videos I could learn a lot from you
Hi John! Thank you brother! Glad to have you on board here!
Dang Dang Dang I was going with that color PAE color code. Great Work. Look forward for the rest of the build.
Lol dodge nailed it with this grey.. i love it..! Lol

Thank you brother that means alot! Im so glad your enjoying the channel! More comming! Be safe!

@@glazedbunzyt530That means alot to me Brother.. If there's anything specific you want to see let me know. Ill do my best to see what I can do.

Thank you brother, I appreciate that!
Thanks for replying I'm a ford man through and through all bikes as well I own a lot

Nice work. I Love the color...looks like the Ford "lead foot" color. Calypso LX hatch owner here. Long live the fox!!
Your close on the color but I had to go with the dodge battleship... shhhhhh dont tell nobody tho!!
Nice work, love the color on the fox keep it up. Id love to have a fox with my Boss
Thank you brother!!!
i’m following every step ….my car is lookin hood
"It's Ghetto as SHIT!!!" Love it Bro... Nice work and love how detailed you get with how to do this. Thank you!!!
Lol! Hey I wasn't lying..lol Glad you enjoyed it brother!!!
Just sub great vid here for the fox keep doing ur thing can’t wait to see it finshed
Thank you brother!
Damn fine paint job and body work my friend and plenty of good tips always helpful. I have seen where guys lay body filler around the run and then sand, cool idea. I have used a razor blade on edge to scrape a run and that works good too.
Thank you brother! Im glad you enjoyed it! Yes the body filler over runs works well also... thats a great old school trick!!
New subscriber here. And damn im impressed with your knowledge and skill in auto body! Coming from a paint and body guy. Great work lots of patience.
Thank you brother! Patience you said it! Thats still a lesson I need to understand every once in a while still..lol! Glad you enjoyed it!
😎
🤙
Body work will test your patience, which is why it's hard to find a good body man. #1 it's detail oriented, but #2 many people don't take pride in their work. Mine is still in the early stages, hope to have it done by May.
I liked your vid. Making content is a lot like body work. Too many guys just use too much filler, where you are just constantly dropping knowledge. Hate guys that just talk jibberish and burry the lead.
Thank you brother for recognizing the message I was trying to get out there! Hit me up on IG.. I wanna see your build!
@@TonyDFreestyle96 I do have an IG but I'm trying to stay away from that platform.
I do have a flickr:

Great work. Most people will see your car & not realize the hundreds of hours labor & all of the cost of the paint & materials involved. I work on the insurance side & see very few young people getting started on the body shop tech side of things. Body shop techs are In big demand & can typically find work at another shop within days.
Thank you Brian... I appreciate that!
My Brother!
Burna B!
Nice work man. I want to do mine but I’m pretty intimidated
This is a very helpful video!! I plan on spraying and buffing my own car which is also a mustang, plz that i came across this thanks bro.
Hit me upbon IG.. let me know how your car comes out bro!
@@TonyDFreestyle96 I will bro
Hi Tony its good to c u painting a car I hate Bettina😃
No bettina here at all brother!
Nice more content of this build have a Oxford white lx just got done with
Thank you brother! Hit me on IG.. Lets see that LX!!!
New Subscriber here! Thanks for the Awesome vids! I bought a 87 coupe a few daysago, it has explorer intake, b cam, 5 lug swap, 5 speed transmission, 07 GT seats, sve radiator w/ electric fans all for 5k! What a steal in 2022! On my channel!
Your absolutely welcome for the content and its my pleasure. Sounds like your off to a great start on yours! Hit me upbon IG so I can see the progress!
@@TonyDFreestyle96 I don't have a ig, wife banned me years ago.
I really appreciate how detailed you are!! I’ve got a 94 centurion f150. The only obs 150 crew cabs short beds that were built. I’m slowly redoing it and the top of the roof where the drip rails are is starting to rust (common in centurions) and I’ll be watching this again when I’m doing body and paint work on it! Thank you! And it’s called the push pull method when you start from bottom up and pick up in the middle of roof. Could you go over with more clear even with the run?
Thank you brother! Good luck on your build.. I have plenty more to paint so If i do catch any more runs or clear issues Ill spend more time explaining it for ya...
Just like my turbo 1993 mustang good jop
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank You
get your mind ready think like a robot haha
I’m building my shop now. How long have you had those garage lights? Do you like them? Can you point me in the right direction?
What did you use for your frame and inside the car ? it looks like under coating . what is the brand ? did you use rattle can ? can you get it in any color or did you paint over it ? I'm doing my car in white . any advise on prep and application. Thanks
Hi Mike.. I used raptor liner on all the interior... the final prep is in 180 grit. You can get a tintable version of this product or you can paint it wet on wet with a single stage urethane... good luck with yours.. hit me on IG so I can see how it comes out.
Just subscribed and watched the whole video. I am going to attempt painting my foxbody and i will use your video as a reference! I'm even going the same color. Is this the Destroyer Gray? Thank you a bunch for the video!
Thats awesome brother! Yes its destroyer gray! What a great color for a fox! Good luck with yours! Take your time! Hit me on IG so I can see how it comes out!!!
@@TonyDFreestyle96 I am starting body work tomorrow! You throw down a wicked paint job man! It will be first time painting a car. I will be practicing on a couple test pieces! What's your IG?
@@fordman954 its tonyd_freestyle
Definitely practice on a few parts first before you start throwing it down on the whole car... its warm out now so careful with your reducers.. good luck!!!!
@@TonyDFreestyle96 thanks man!
Any rust repair video? Asking because I'll need to repair the A pillar area.
I will have rust repair within the next few months that will definitely apply to the pillar repairs...
What type of masking tape do you use when applying on already painted surfaces? Does it ever pull paint off?
I always try to run the green 3m.. it sticks well and resists the solvents well... if your pulling paint off with the tape theres a few things going on.. bad prep.. too much harder... not cured fully and pulling the tape up not away from your work. Hope this helps...
@@TonyDFreestyle96 thanks for the info. You’re work is impressive.
@@TonyDFreestyle96 Btw, do you have any experience with 2K spray can clear coat from Car-Rep? I had a horrible experience with it doing spot painting work.
@@judy9139 i have tried it and im my opinion i just dont see a use for it unless your in some odd remote place where you dont have an air supply or something like that.. not to mention its like 30 bucks plus and you gotta use it all within like 20 hours or something like that...
What is the paint code and what paint brand did you use? I got a spray out the the code PDN and it seems dark. Let me know!
Yes sir. Its PDN... this color has multiple toners in it so its sensitive to various types of light. Mine goes dark to light as the lighting changes so you got the right one. The base is HiQ... midway through this vid i show the product in detail for ya.
Awesome man I have watched all of your videos multiple times. Very jealous of the car. The way you work on it and do your meticulous things is going to make this thing show car quality brother
@@fordman954 oh believe me you wouldnt have been jelly when I first pulled it out of the sugar cane feild it was rotting on..lol thank you tho..lol she may make it to at least 1 show then after that she gitta earn some performance respect to me..lol
What brand are the wheels. Also what size and offset?
Hi Duane, watch the build overview vid, i go over all the wheel specs, calipers rotors etc in detail there. Lemme know what you think after you watch..
Hi Tony, I noticed that sometimes, after wet sanding and polishing clear coat, it will become slightly textured and even a little wrinkly as it continues to cure for weeks or months. I’ve been spot painting with a heavy metallic base coat that can’t be sanded before clear. Could that be why? Your insight is much appreciated.
Some clears will do that after full cure... you should be able to get it out if it does that.. what clear are you using?
@@TonyDFreestyle96 It does come out with some light sand and polish. It’s Spray Max 2K clear aerosol.
@@judy9139 right on.. next time try a 4 to 1 clear and shoot it with a gun.. its way cheaper in the long run and much better result...
@@TonyDFreestyle96 Thanks for the info. Unfortunate I can’t for the spot painting that I do for customers. My service is mobile.
@@TonyDFreestyle96 you mean 4 clear to 1 reducer? And clear meaning clear with catalyst already together?
Is theat clear a HC
Yes mostly all euro clears are high solids these days..
Is this your personal project? or customer?
This is my own baby. Lol
