Very nice. I greatly appreciate that you don't endlessly babble about what you are going to do! You give enough info for the basics and describe more as you work. This is how channels should be! Cheers
Thanks mate, not many people have the skills to do this metal work and are also able to explain it in a simple, understandable way like Paul does. Cheers for watching
Thanks for sharing Paul I'm no panel beater but you have shown and described really well . I didn't realize there were so many shapes keep up the great work.
Thanks for the comment 👍 I'm editing a video now which is basically asking what fab work you guys want to see Paul explain in more depth. So let us know, cheers for watching.
Thanks heaps I've been looking forward to uploading this one. Yeah I hear ya, to have someone this good at metal fab and then able to explain it so clearly is really cool.
I know you make shaping the 1/4 arch look so easy to do but that could be further than the truth. Wow amazing work. I could only wish I had half those skills.
Yeah its pretty cool to see this progress and level of fabrication. I did this and the last video on Davinci Resolve, really steep learning curve, many hours spent watching tutorials but now I absolutely love it and can't believe I used to edit on my phone!
I have this exact job todo on my ute and old mate did a flawless job i really don't do this sort of work anymore unless its for myself and everytime i underestimate the time energy and effort it takes to do a good job
What was the condition of the inner guard? Were any repairs needed before welding the outer skin on? I've found that rusty outer panels usually have rust damage behind. Loved seeing how that panel was fabricated. Great work. Looking forward to the next instalment.
Let's just say they need some attention! Its interesting following Paul's process, why not do those inners now? I don't know but he always has solid reasoning behind his process which we will all find out. I do suspect he is starting to prepare me for things to get really invasive with this build.
Thankyou much appreciated! Your question about Paul having a channel is an interesting one as its something he and I have spoken about a fair bit. Basically the time required and commitment to do just what I'm doing is massive, way bigger than I ever imagined. Definitely not a decision to be taken lightly!
I was looking at the front guard last night, I don't have the car to compare but they are definitely similar with the flare and the way it transitions to flat. I'll have a look at the rears next time I go to Bodymods.

Haha, thanks appreciate the comments and views 👍
Nice work , cheers , shaneo, nelson, 👍
Thanks for tuning in again Shaneo, will keep the progress coming!
I know you make shaping the 1/4 arch look so easy to do but that could be further than the truth. Wow amazing work. I could only wish I had half those skills.
Not me I just edit the video but you would probably still have a decent result with half the skills! 👍
@@The-State-of-it yeah I realize it was the body shop doing the work. They are truly skilled.
the metal skills he has are fantastic! its looking great
Yeah its pretty cool to see this progress and level of fabrication. I did this and the last video on Davinci Resolve, really steep learning curve, many hours spent watching tutorials but now I absolutely love it and can't believe I used to edit on my phone!
That man has some awesome skills!, Car is looking good!
Cheers, yeah looks cool I reckon!
I have this exact job todo on my ute and old mate did a flawless job
i really don't do this sort of work anymore unless its for myself and everytime i underestimate the time energy and effort it takes to do a good job
It's hard to portray the difficulty through a video, thankyou for watching and commenting 👍
I'm pretty sure he knows what he is doing..
You know your good when you start making it look easy.
What was the condition of the inner guard? Were any repairs needed before welding the outer skin on? I've found that rusty outer panels usually have rust damage behind.
Loved seeing how that panel was fabricated. Great work. Looking forward to the next instalment.

@@The-State-of-it looking forward to seeing the progress
I had a 74 stato love it one day I'll get one again ?
Nice, I see a 73 for sale on Trademe here in NZ . Great condition but not cheap.
I can’t wait to see the end result, one of my favourite Holden models
Does Paul have a you tube channel? He would gain so many subscribers
No he doesn't but totally agree it would be a massive channel. I'm sure you can imagine what his custom work is like!
Top marks to yourself also for putting a video series of a great project, the editing is excellent and well detailed 👍

No bullshit just good work
Yip, damn good work! Thanks for watching 👍
Just perfect job good onya
Yeah that moulding fits perfect, he's done an incredible job.
at 5:30 , I see an Alfa Berlina in the back ground, will you do any videos on fabricating panels on that ?
Hi, no plan to sorry,
Hi. Just wondering, are the rear wheel arches the same shape, size as the front guards? Use sections from the front guards?
I was looking at the front guard last night, I don't have the car to compare but they are definitely similar with the flare and the way it transitions to flat. I'll have a look at the rears next time I go to Bodymods.
Wish I had your skill...in time I guess
I wish I had Paul's skill as well! Instead I just make videos of people with skill 😅
@@The-State-of-it know how you feel 😂
