  • it's a beauty

  • I think its gutsy . ...could use more ppl thinkin like this . . .Critics ... . .been inhalin too much Imron (uhhhhhh that would b u Paintsballs and pudinpants) Well done, innovative ...

  • good basic video of what to do then just prep the panel with the grider and take the welder, you might need a welding magnet to hold the piece to the panel then tack welds in spots to get the panel on the vehicle then let it cool a bit and weld it up then grind down the welds and body fill it, sand it, tack cloth it, acid etch prime it, paint it, hoo ahh were done!

  • yes, i do alot better work nowbut am having difficulty turning that knowlege into a useful tutorial.

    i should show how to fix things without a welder or in such a way as that people without ready access to a welder of some kind could have the repairs completed later but not sure if i will ever get around to that

  • This blows...i could learn how to do it better with my telescope aimed at a body shop window. Sorry your ashamed of your voice but that should give a hint that DIY videos are not your bag.

  • WOW you hammer fast! cool vid

  • Chip, is this you, Chip (Foose)?

  • lmao. real rough.....

  • great job i hope you kept the car its probably runing fine, guy with blown petrol tank i have fridge door ill make you another give me a call

  • WOW your work really sucks not to mention crude,besides that the car you are working on is not worth the warped twisted metal you put into it. let the rust do its job and take the car where it needs to go (THE JUNK YARD)

  • wait so the manufactures spray oil in between the panels from the factory?

  • Most of them don't i believe they use somthing a little bit different but most panelbeaters use a kind of fish-oil or similiar type oil that semi-dries. The manufactures sometimes use a commercialy made oil that leaves a waxy deposit behind or they galivnize the parts first. Hope that helps

  • kool, so when i cut out my cab corner i should spray some synthetic car oil or something in there and on the back of the new panel?

  • i heard that shark oil or fish oil is best but a small handbook about rust prevention told me that used oil (possibly mixed with grease if you can apply it) should be sprayed or brushed as far as possible in the places where you cannot put paint

  • wow there are worse looking rebuild jobs out there then my car, haha, nice vid tho, had no idea what was goin on so i cant say i learnt something, tho to others it would be helpful, nice vied any how

  • It looked hopelessly crude and not a purpose made tool to be seen. So congratulations for getting a respectable result. There is something cool about what is known about a "bodge" in the UK. I heard of someone making a sill or rocker panel out of concrete and someone faking tread in a bald tyre with a soldering iron. I cleaned the oil off a leaking shock absorber then blew workshop dust on it to make it less obvious.

  • How interesting, I've heard of cutting tyre tread with a chainsaw but using a soldering iron would look less obvious

  • Good vid, really nice pointers on metal shaping techniques!! Thanx!

  • Wow, that is interesting. You seem very handy at these things... cool.

  • Wow that was impressive. You are not really a rough repair person though. The last large rust hole I fixed in a car body I used wire netting and rivets and bog sanded smooth and painted over. The testing station was quite happy ... probably because they didn't notice the wire netting under the front guard.

    Keep making great videos.

    Cheers Kev

  • I once covered a hole near a petrol cap with a palm leaf covered in grease and passed a W.O.F. inspection, probebly 'cause the rest of the car was greasy too

  • Shit ... you win ... well done.

    I watched a friend once heating up dents in a motorbike petrol tank with a gas torch so he could panel beat them and then fill them with lead. I said "you have flushed that tank out with water several times ... aye".

    He looked at me funny and then it went bang bigtime. Neither of us hurt but a mess in the carshed and no windows left.

  • I didn't want to weld near a petrol cap

  • Very wise, the above incident was many years ago but my ears still ring occasionally.

  • Did he fix the tank ?

  • That particular tank became shrapnel at the time but he managed to get another one several months later.

  • thats fine, all you need to know is in your video, put it this way I have never seen it explained in 2:18 ever before.

  • nothing wrong with being rough, its the beauty within which counts..nice how to video

  • um thanks, but I can't help but think I could have explained the process a bit more clearly. I'll need to get a few more years experince yet.
