Definetly possible. There are ton of awd swapped civics out there and you can get kits that have everything you need to use crv parts. Can't be as difficult as putting a Honda chassis under a mustang body.
I saw this car go from a random stupid idea born off a whim and required way too much time and effort to an actual passion project, and tbh I’m all for it. It’s been a wild ride and I’m glad Masutangu is in the place its in now
@@Southpawarsenal I love working with him! My car is drivable now, I actually drove it 30 miles today. Currently building a new shed with my dad, I love having the opportunity to learn from him.
If you sit there and worry and brain bust, you will never get things finished!!! You can polish and polish until you think your doing it in your sleep but that paint can't get any smoother than it already is!!! Just appreciate your masterpiece!!! Everyone has different tastes!!!😂😂😂
My most favorite car build of any channel on UA-cam... This car is the epitome of a garage built hot-rod. With a 'Sports Injected' burst of controversy... I love it.
i found your channel from an instagram clip of the system in the donk, and im pretty sure ive watched every one of your videos start to finish about 4 times now. you got me working on my projects again and i cant thank you enough.
Really hope this goes AWD next. There's some great kits out there now. Also, spray paint a border around the outside of the windscreen and it'll hide the sealant
Personally in my opinion you should take that right front fender and sand it down then make a spray bottle of vinegar water. Spray the fender down so it will rust and have patina to match the rest of the car. You have done a fine job with that rat rod keep it going!
Absolutely wicked to see how far this project has came, driving wknd flips is one thing but cutting your hands, burning your hair, staying up late to finish something with your friends is a whole other type of feeling once you go for a cruise. Cool shit Tom 👌🏼🫡
In the future, just use a good painters tape, lay it across the entire windshield into the area you want (be sure to overlap it and add vertical pieces) trim edges with a razor, then peel it up as one piece and lay that over the media that you will cut. Makes it accurate and clean.
I've been loving this series, I've been wanting to get into custom fabrication for cars and I want to thank you for the insight on fabrication. Even if it isn't the 'correct' way to do it.
I always paint the inside of the window with a black trim around the outer edges, and a band across the top before installing in my race cars. Cleans it up nicely.
Hey Tom, Love the content! I have put in car glass in using the string method and the trick to it is spraying a bottle of soapy water onto the areas that you are pulling and it allows the window to pull into place using the string.
Cover the opening with cardboard then trace it from the inside. Then take tape that is half inch or three quarter and run it along the trace line to add that edge needed for the window to set in since tracing it and cutting it would make it fall through the opening because its exact. Once you add the tape you can trace the outside edge of the tape and you have a perfect template to work off of!!! Hope that helps someone some day!!
Just had a very funny mental image of Tom driving Masutangu, with a cardboard screen and two eye-holes cut out in it, lookin like a big ol' fast spooky ghost car ridin' around.
I would like to personally thank Tom and his editing team for leaving the metal chopsaw and angle grinder audio at full volume. In fact, I hope they boost the volume to be even louder than normal in the next one, so that my ears may be blessed with the high-pitched screech of progress.
Been watching this build for a while now. I saw this video pop up in feed and I got so excited to see what happened next. Your work is absolutely amazing Tom! At this point I would say you ARE a factory XD
Hey tom when filling it up at the pump just turn the nozzle all the way till the gun is facing upward it looks super awkward BUT that should allow more gas to flow in easily into the tank. I have to fill up my vette this way
Its a little late now but dawn dish soap works wonders with those glass rubbers. With plastic pry tools ... And wd40& a gatar string with 2 sticks to remove um with help from a friend. Its the easiest way to remove um and save those rubbers. ...
Hey Tom. For future glass installs that have the same style seal..try a thin length of wire, or braided steel cable. I've done it with airplane throttle cable, both to cut out the old, and install the new.
As a Honda enthusiast I think with you’re aspect of doing things cheap and efficient you should definitely do a review on how well the stock mounts filled with roof and flashing polyurethane handle with the boosted b series
Spray the inside of the rubber gasket with WD-40 and you use a nice nylon chord clothesline rope and have a buddy push on the windshield slightly while you pull the rope in keeping even pressure on the area where you are pulling
I’ve been watching this one from the start, crazy to see what it’s turned into! Only thing I’d say could use a change would be the rims, even a cheap diamond racing wheel would pull it all together a bit better in my opinion. None the less, keep up the good work man. Ill forever keep coming back.
Tom hard at work providing good Saturday morning content. At least in my part of the world. I can't wait for a follow up mustang event video. I'm expecting a revised fuel filler in the future. As well as a replacement/rebuilt or upgraded gearbox and some sort of new mount.
On a order note tom spends time on a project puts his heart and soul in to it just to break it and laugh about it it is the best car content on UA-cam by far and it's funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Turning out Sweet bud! It would look a little better if you put a Tape edge around outside of Window were the black weather striping would be and paint it black to cover screws and back side of glue… Something to think about! Love what you’re doing the Channel is Great! Need more!
please consider putting a center brace in the window. lexan has a tendency to buckle at speed. painting the edges of windows black hides the glue and bodywork, and weatherstrips for fastback doors are $15 each
Man it looks badass.. kinda wanted the rusty bumper to go on but you made the right decision.. how you put that many screws in the windshield without it cracking I'll never know... Can't wait to see what project is next ..
The small hose on the old gas neck is supposed to be right up by the cap then the gas will flow in Easyer you put it right next to the bottom of the tank
45:40 i think i can hear the boost forcing the BOV open. I think those hks super sequentials can be tightened with the bolt on the back side. gives you better boost response.
im restoring a 1965 ford mustang convertible. deluxe pony interior and only 5100 made was in a barn fire runs good for the carb melting inside the engine and yeah we didnt take out the engine or take it apart at most the valve covers probably lol.
Use strong paracord instead of that string next time you do something like this, also spray some water/glass cleaner so it doesn't burn the gasket when you pull it (If you're going quick)
I wonder if Tom already knows that Donut Media featured his Mustang in a video. Very cool to see that
Yep
That's pretty cool I didnt know that! I need to check that out. It's crazy how he combined my 2 favorite cars an em1 and a fastback 👌
That’s what I was thinking
What donut video?
I like Turtles 😁
Tom and the cameraman are lovers? I knew exhaust pipe wasn't the only thing getting stretched in that garage.
xD
😂😂😂
💀
he goes 4 inches and pulls the string... Ahhh push it
@@nunyabizniss4087 3 3/4 inch
Since the trans is toast it may be time to throw in a crv trans and convert it to awd
AWD would be insanely awesome 👍🤞
My thoughts exactly
Not that simple. Thats a lot of time parts and fab work. Would be sweet though
07-11 crv rear diff or use element.
Definetly possible. There are ton of awd swapped civics out there and you can get kits that have everything you need to use crv parts. Can't be as difficult as putting a Honda chassis under a mustang body.
Time to go back to the mustang show and get some fresh reactions and negative opinions which no one needed. love the work man
" The Spirit of Hot Rodding " on the Light bezel is a beautiful touch, Chief's kiss.

Im 15, building my first car with my dad. 1952 pontiac chieftain on a 6.0 powerstroke chassis. This car definitely was an inspiration for my build.
That’s awesome, you got no clue how lucky you are to be in a family that supports your passions like that!
I so wish I could have gotten to do something like that with my father. Cherish every moment you have with him! Good luck with the build!!

Tom should make merch with the saying, “guesstimated calculations”
Coming soon 😈
Definitely!!!!!!!!!!

Amen 👍

Tom, use smooth string next time you install a window. That's why you had all the issues with the twine braking. It's called heavy kite string.
running a light amount of soap along the string works too
Always pull the string parallel or close to parallel with the glass.
I use weed whacker line to install my glass works like a charm.
If Tom doesn’t make this AWD at some point I’m gonna riot
Or 1 wheel drive? More Tom's style😂
then he cant do burnouts
@@highschoolrebuilds3972if it isn't LSD then it's already 1 wheel drive
@Slabman710 Cyclone Donuts... The most epic form of burnout.
The crackhead on the bridge was just the chefs kiss to an already great day!
Got to meet Tom in person the other day. He’s a super nice genuine guy
Love the whole concept of Masutangu and this series!
As an old Jeep owner the comment " I can't hear the road behind me" has me dying. Absolutely hilarious but true in beaters and project cars
'...theres definitely a little gap there but that's just because I'm stupid...' I've said that a few times but to hear someone else say it. Priceless.
As a windshield installer I can tell you that you did a good job, but having the right tools for a gasket set job makes it 20x faster
Personally in my opinion you should take that right front fender and sand it down then make a spray bottle of vinegar water. Spray the fender down so it will rust and have patina to match the rest of the car. You have done a fine job with that rat rod keep it going!
Came for the cars, stayed for the comedy. Brilliant.
Chib Fooze did a pretty cool job building that stang
3:56 I knew it. Congratulations
Honestly i think some modified OEM taillights would look great!
the car looks insanely good, great job.
where truck video

Dude...that car is too cool. True spirit of hot rodding.
If you paint the perimeter of the Lexan, like a 1”-2” border on the edges, looks 100x better. Awesome work 👍
In the future, just use a good painters tape, lay it across the entire windshield into the area you want (be sure to overlap it and add vertical pieces) trim edges with a razor, then peel it up as one piece and lay that over the media that you will cut. Makes it accurate and clean.
I have been here since 10k subs. You are awesome and deserve all of your success. Keep making these videos and you will keep going up and up.
The “buckle up. I’m gonna try something” bumper sticker on your cabinet is superb.
I've been loving this series, I've been wanting to get into custom fabrication for cars and I want to thank you for the insight on fabrication. Even if it isn't the 'correct' way to do it.
I say considering you’ll barely open the trunk instead of a pin get a bronze combo lock to keep it closed, just to match the vibe of the car haha
I always paint the inside of the window with a black trim around the outer edges, and a band across the top before installing in my race cars. Cleans it up nicely.
Ive never been a purist. I love when people get creative with their builds. This is the spirit of hot rodding.
Hey Tom, Love the content! I have put in car glass in using the string method and the trick to it is spraying a bottle of soapy water onto the areas that you are pulling and it allows the window to pull into place using the string.
When cutting bolts, screw a nut on first then thread off over the end cut. Aligns the threads so a nut will go on easier.
Let's go!!! Wish you VTEC swap a FULL SIZED 2023 Silverado 3500HD next IF possible!! 2 VTEC engines in it for a V8Tec Engine, and with TURBOS, too!!!!

Hey Tom u don't need an oil pressure Guage when u have vtec..if vtec hits she's got enough pressure. Send er bud😎 cool to see it together
Wasn't big on the roof scoops when your first did them... but now with the spoiler and everything it just ties together the janky look! great job man
Just had a very funny mental image of Tom driving Masutangu, with a cardboard screen and two eye-holes cut out in it, lookin like a big ol' fast spooky ghost car ridin' around.
So glad you buttoned up that rear end. Finishing touches we never knew we needed. Well done sir

You gotta be one of the best Automotive UA-camrs. Keep it up man. Super cool car!!
This is honestly my favorite youtube build
Seeing your joy in this video was pretty dope, mate. Excellent work. Be proud :D
Been binge watching this build, Nice WORK! Next time paracord for the window install instead of that cheap twine. Remember,,,, NO RULES!!!

Hey Tom.
For future glass installs that have the same style seal..try a thin length of wire, or braided steel cable.
I've done it with airplane throttle cable, both to cut out the old, and install the new.
I think it's fun how that spoiler looks a little bit like the Dashboard.
Dude this is fantastic. Can't wait till I get my shop up and running and can start doing builds like this
Love your work!! This car is EPIC!! You should find a cool pad lock for the trunk instead of the hitch pin. Gives you security. 😂❤

Spray the inside of the rubber gasket with WD-40 and you use a nice nylon chord clothesline rope and have a buddy push on the windshield slightly while you pull the rope in keeping even pressure on the area where you are pulling
You should put the exhaust tips out where the reverse lights are
That car is so freaking sick! And the fact that you built it as well makes it even cooler like you get to say “I built that car.” How cool is that?
I rarely watch videos that long in one go. Great work!

Next time I'm sure you will use a stronger string, but soapy water or windex helps a lot too.
Tom hard at work providing good Saturday morning content.
At least in my part of the world.
I can't wait for a follow up mustang event video.
I'm expecting a revised fuel filler in the future.
As well as a replacement/rebuilt or upgraded gearbox and some sort of new mount.
Always good to watch Tom’s refurb
just got off work and see a 55 min toms refurb vid life couldn’t be better

Silicone spray helps rope windows go in like butter, also use rope not string.
Holy shit! An hour?! This is going to be epic!!!
Hey man, Awesome project car. Ingenuity IS hotrodding.
tom! Get the front 2 torque mounts in billet as well. You should have a total of 5 mounts.
Gonna need some great wallpaper pictures of the Stang.
This whole build is just the right amount of pain and joy
Bailing twine works wonders for those rear window seals!
