    The level of quality in your shop is amazing. I’m a retired painter/bodyman who did mostly collision work for about 40 years. I restored 15-20 cars in that time span also and it was always refreshing to be able to spend the time needed to a beautiful job. I’m so impressed with your attitude and dedication to doing things right. Good to know that the current generation has got this!

      I’ve actually thought about making a video of that lol. She could wetsand and buff epoxy primer, spray paint, or even rolled on rustoleum probably to a mirror. The final refinishing side of the process is a major factor in the end result. Application, material quality, and procedures used is most important in longevity.

    The think I’ve found with bad stud welder work is misuse of it. People like to put all of the studs all at once with full force. I’ve always did them little by little and use the slide gently and then put constant pressure on the slide and tapping the damaged area accordingly all around. Sometimes even putting a little heat on the damaged area with my butane torch that comes with and used for shrink wrap. Sometimes you just have to think outside the box when doing metal work.

    • @HouseofPearls
      @HouseofPearls  4 дня назад +2

      Yep there’s sometimes when a stud welder is a necessary evil and there’s ways to mitigate the damage and have a quality repair. I’ve just found better results with glue pulling and pdr rods on 90% of dents.
      You’re absolutely right though. A torch, water rag, shrinking disc and body hammers can all be used with a stud welder to get decent end results.

    • @HouseofPearls
      @HouseofPearls  4 дня назад

      Definitely not as enjoyable as starting from original, but it’s much more common to fix other shops mistakes than it is to get a solid car with no corners cut on the work.
      There’s levels to it though. This chevelle wasn’t too bad compared to a lot of others we’ve done

    My Aunt and Uncle had a 74 Monte Carlo with the 454 in black on black. I always thought that it was a beautiful car. I was pissed when one of my stupid cousins snuck out one night taking the Monte Carlo and getting drunk and totaling the car. He was so afraid of my Uncle’s ire, he went and joined the army the next day. Dumb ass. I’d love to have one today. Wouldn’t need to be a show car but a nice daily would be great. Swapped to a modern LS and four speed automatic so you got decent mileage and reliable transportation. There are several great suspension packages to make the handle well. You might have to drop $30k to get it really right but today $30k doesn’t buy even a shit box of a new car. Might as well have a classic car.

    Nikki is the perfect person for the job especially the finishing of certain stages. I know how women are. I had a house painting company once with 3 female painters. They were excellent at prep and finishing. Easy for my quality control. Watching Nikki wet sand brought back memories of my younger days when I wet sanded cars that my best friends dad's would buy ,paint and reupholster. The best part was going to the auction buying old Nova, Camaro, Olds, 69 to 72 ,keep hustling guys, I love it, I know Bill will be stoked.
