Happy Sunday! Remember to leave us a COMMENT and check if you are SUBSCRIBED and set your NOTIFICATIONS.... Also, don't forget to give us a thumbs up! We appreciate all of you and Jamie is happy to see the push to 100K! This build is getting really HOT! Have a great week! ~ The Roussels
Wow Ian, that made a tremendous impact on the looks. I see it also making for a better finish of the original roof line and upper door lines. Excellent job once again using the invisioning tools...
When you first started I thought you where going for a Tom Daniel's Red Baron Hot-Rod (1969) style with the helmet top, but quickly realized nope. The direction you are going in will be much much better.
I love all of Ian’s builds he does awesome work ,used to watch him on tv so glad to have him on Utube I subscribed to your channel,when I saw him on hope you both feel better soon keep up the wonderful work I love it
As a garage fabricator, sometimes it's hard to redo shit you've spent so much time doing. But, watching your channel makes me realize I can do whatever I want, even if I have to abandon some hard work.
The patience required for builds like this is next level and most people don’t understand! Fitting ,refinement ,more fitting, altering then some more refinement! All ending with visionary perfection ! Excellent work Ian ❤
I have to say, I’ve been working with fiberglass matting for years and always brushed the resin on the vehicle, put the mat on, then brushed more over it. Today I did it like you showed a few videos back, damn is that an awesome way to do it! Uses less resin and way faster! Love your show and these videos are just freaking awesome! Thank you for having the patience to teach us all some new tricks!
i learnt long ago with watchin Ian, if he changes things part way through its always gonna get so much better..he forsees what he wants then possibly sees even better part way. 5 star stuff as usual.
The unedited process of a master car builder and great capturing through the expert camera work(and commentary) is absolutely spell binding. You guys have struck a chord!
You’re a lucky man,sir. You have a partner that understands what you’re doing, makes supporting comments, is your camera person, and seems to love being in your shop with you. Bravo
I could hear Ian’s bolts and whistles brain working like 100 miles per hour and he did it again 👏👏👏👏. Awesome job Ian! Hi Jamie & Ian, please get well and get healthy soon. 👋👏👏👏💜
Two words- Ratchet Wrench 🔧 I use them more than regular ratchets now. 🙂 Since I’m on the subject of “ratchet” I would’ve used a ratchet strap side to side around the roof to hold it while I slid it into place then pulled the strap out after both sides were in under the metal skin. I love watching you work man. I wish I was right there helping/learning/adding. Thanks for all the hard work making these videos guys. ✌️ peace
I can tell by how you mounted the over curved spine that you are a Sk8r punk from the day. It's that teenaged rebellion that we grew up with that inspires your creativity and it's why I love this channel. I have not one critique, but I can't praise you guys enough.
I'm pretty sure it was me that mentioned. You should rib cage the top that way. It will have an nice shape from the front to the back with no interruptions. But you are the master fabrication work. I only been doing it for a couple of years now. Let's see 1983 when I started. Yeah, I know I'm old. Good day sir
@@fullcustomIan My friend, I learned something new every time. I watch you so no worries. Wish I could do a build with you guys out there. Shut the internet down LO. L good day sir
My wife and love watching your shows. It is really cool to watch because you are real and that is what we love. We are also dog lovers however our are tiny little doggies. They are our kids also. Keep up the good work!
I really appreciate how much content you guys are putting out. Doing a great job of being informative and engaging. It's a lot of fun watching the two of you get better and better at this. Keep it up!
Wow thank you. We really appreciate the support of our channel. It really is a labor of love on both our parts. We fully enjoy working together and are happy it shows on the big screen. Our best to you sir! ~The Roussels
@@fullcustomIan You are very welcome. I've been watching Ian since his first shows on tv and your YT channel is exactly what I've said forever that I wish car build shows were, "fine, that's great -- now take out the false-peril of the 'upcoming auction' or whatever bullshit and give me 20 hours of video showing the build instead of 45 minutes." Ian's always been way better than most about that, but with this channel, we're on episode 41 of the VW and it is only starting to have a roof! Awesome. So interesting. I can't believe all the projects you guys juggle, but it is so engaging watching you think and work your way through them.
@@ronjenkins8529 We really appreciate that. It is true. It is a very long process and you sometimes have to let them sit for a bit to really refine them. We are happy that our channel is finally becoming more recognized for the "what it really takes" side of building, instead of caving into a timeframe that people expect at times. It seems though, once it all starts to come together it just happens so quickly! Thank you again for your generosity and kindness.
Almost 13000 views and 1200 likes??? Come on people, we won’t ever have to watch Full Custom Garage and only see 25 percent of what’s going on and hopefully Ian and Jamie will make more money! I’m probably wrong, but what do I know…..
23:30 man... this is heartwarming to see lol... I thought i was the only one who had a box of random that i dump out to find nuts and bolts lol... I literally have a old sewing box (it was my grandmothers) that is FULL of randoms.
Ian, I'm so glad you changed the roof. It was really bugging me (pun intended). I kept wondering how you were going to fix it. Wonder no more. Great work! It was fun to watch the process.
A few "Kerf" cuts in the PVC will let the fiberglass easily flex with the truss to the curve your looking for! Cool stuff love watching the process and Jamie's inputs, Stay weird and outside the box! 👽
I never get tired of watching Ian work. I've learned so much over the years and am so happy that you are giving us this real look into the process; it's so much better than the magic wand versions on the MT thing. I am really getting a better handle on the mockup process with all of the changes in direction, rework, starting over and such. To have a celebrated expert and consummate artist such as Ian reveal his "secrets", methods and thought processes is truly a wonderful and unselfish gesture. I hope you get millions of subscribers because you deserve it ...
Happy Sunday, I know I’m late to the party. Thought maybe you would use bows to form the roof - but again I’m still watching as you work your magic. Picture a ribcage- you’ve principally got the spine or working on it . Just a thought - loving this cars potential 👍👍
I know you are determine to make that top look just right but you may want to stand back and see that beautiful roof body line. With a little cover for the engine fan shroud you could have a super strealine look.
Am I the only one who for whom the “truss” would make a great sculpture of a windshield wiper? Amazing channel just keeps getting better. Thanks Ian and Jamie.
Nice suggestion whomever it was. And of course, great execution by the master Ian. Would love to have one day to learn from you. But I guess I am every week.
I see that truss being a problem hanging down from the roof. Some round tube would be adequate. Given the tube becomes shorter when bent , if its fixed securely at both ends it cant straighten , thus retaining its curve.

That curve in the roof is exactly what it needed. Great viewer tip.

I agree it’s hard to redo something you spent time on
Exactly!
THAT, is what sets him apart.

Thank you!
Wow! That brace in the roof was the ticket! I could tell as soon as you flipped it over that the shape is way better! 👍🏼👍🏼
I have to say, I’ve been working with fiberglass matting for years and always brushed the resin on the vehicle, put the mat on, then brushed more over it. Today I did it like you showed a few videos back, damn is that an awesome way to do it! Uses less resin and way faster! Love your show and these videos are just freaking awesome!

Putting that truss in has improved the roof line immensely, it's gorgeous a nice subtle curve to it now 😀 👍

It's not TV magic. It's Ian magic !!
...it's not magic at all, it's auto building madness at it's finest...-theautojunkie-
That worked out perfect! Love the shape this thing is taking!
That looks so much better. The roof looks part of the car now, not just plonked on top. Love it.
The roof looks a lot better! Good job guys!
What a fit. Brother, you're a genius. you will always make it work
Car is looking real good. Slick trick using the angle iron as the truss.
You are my favorite builder out there i love watching the way you do your work
It looks super cool with out that roof on it

Big Love! 😎😎
Let the roof sit in the Mohave sun, and the fiberglass will relax consequently, the stress will disappear !
I'm really enjoying this build!
Nice move with the roof. That made a huge improvement for the flow of the roofline. Good show. Peace.
Ian most of your viewers don't have the eagle eye like you, but we're trying. Keep up the great work 👍

Whomever suggested those alterations was absolutely dead on point! Looks great!
Looks much better now. Keep it coming. Thanks
My husband love the show keep up the amazing work
That truss was perfect! You know that roof would sag in the desert heat over time! It looks perfect.
Work that clay till your happy with the shape. Gotta do what ya gotta do. Looking good Ian.
I'll admit I was not convinced when you started this project, but you're about to make me a believer!
On a Sunday??? We love you guys sooo freakin’ much!

Looks great. Instead of looking like an after thought, the roof line now flows quite nicely with the body of the car. Thumbs up.
Glad you like it
Beautiful job on that top, love it!!!
Thank you! 😊
Looking good, Ian.
Thanks.
Excellent work on the truss spine
. It fixed the profile and will add need support in the roof.
YES. AWESOME. As soon as you slid the roof forward i was thinking "that would be a cool keychain" .
Hope you both feeling better. Love the videos.
This is one of my favorite things to watch. You are amazing at creating awesome vehicles
IT WOLD LOOK AWESOME as a holding handrail
It looks so much more BADASSED now than before probably the perfect profile.
I didn’t see it at first but now it’s clear.. More pleasing to the eyeballs.
You could save one of the hoop holes in the tressel for a hand grip to get in and out of your matchbox...ark!
love what Ian does great artistic mind, shows us all even the happy mistakes!
The roof looks so much better now👏
Was wondering about the roof but have learned to be patient, you always work it out. Enjoy the heck out of you two ❤
Awwww thank you!
You never cease but to Amaze me. Get to feeling better.
Yep that change to the roof line makes the car look correct and cooler
The lights on that truck sure would look awesome on the Beatle 😅😂
A little roll bar over each seat in thar car would not only neat but probably a life saver. Great work Sir. Thank you for sharing with us. Al
Ian, I'm so glad you changed the roof. It was really bugging me (pun intended). I kept wondering how you were going to fix it. Wonder no more. Great work! It was fun to watch the process.
That was the most profound change to MY eye that you've done yet. Outstanding! I love your progressions!
What a transformation! It looks perfect!
AWESOME Storm Trooper in the front, & Vader in the back👏
I just dig Ian's "grin of success."
I think y'all did a great job on all 3 new tools
Wow it’s my favourite bug build on utube currently even tho I’ve 26 aircools
A few "Kerf" cuts in the PVC will let the fiberglass easily flex with the truss to the curve your looking for! Cool stuff love watching the process and Jamie's inputs, Stay weird and outside the box! 👽

Looks freakin' awesome. Hope you're both feeling better soon 😊
Love to see you hang those heart windows in the correct orientation on something😊
Roofline is much improved- well done!
You don’t see it until you see it thanks for sharing 😀👍
Step by step Awesomeness!! Roof looks sweeeet now dude..
I love to watch the man Ben the metal. He is the master as far as I can see.
An excellent adjustment by a master crafter/artist!
Absolutely Stunning work !
Thank you! Cheers!
Gettin’ there. Fun to see the progress
What a great idea. Going to be stronger forsure.
What a great job. Great little truss. Have a good week. Marc from Australia 🇦🇺
Like watching a mad scientist at work. Love it
Hope you two start feeling better. A lot of work. It is looking better.
Now it looks absolutely wicked. I love it!!!
A couple classic 80s decks hanging in there, a mudface and yardstick? You skate?!🤘🏽🤘🏽
That Redical Bug is bad ass!!!! LOVE it !!! Greeting from Belgium! 🤟
Happy Sunday, I know I’m late to the party. Thought maybe you would use bows to form the roof - but again I’m still watching as you work your magic. Picture a ribcage- you’ve principally got the spine or working on it .
Just a thought - loving this cars potential 👍👍
From the rear looking forward it looks like a sleezstack from land of the lost TV show when I was a kid. Love your talent . Much peace
Can barely wait to see this finished. Semper-Fi buddy thankyou
I know you are determine to make that top look just right but you may want to stand back and see that beautiful roof body line. With a little cover for the engine fan shroud you could have a super strealine look.
Awesome! Get well both of you ❤
Looking pretty sweet sir.
Looks like the Hotwheels Red Baron and a Bug got it on, and this is the offspring. 👍
Impressive project. I do wish you luck and will follow up. Best regards from Germany!
Love this episode. Make the rear windows larger.
That outcome was well worth the hard work way to go
You should put some spiked bolts through the roof. Some nice chrome spikes sticking off the top.
When you see something in your minds eye, you won't sleep at night until you fix it.
Am I the only one who for whom the “truss” would make a great sculpture of a windshield wiper? Amazing channel just keeps getting better. Thanks Ian and Jamie.
That's a great idea!
Never easy putting metal and glass together but some how you find the way excellent job
Heck to the yes!!!! The new roof line rocks
Nice suggestion whomever it was. And of course, great execution by the master Ian. Would love to have one day to learn from you. But I guess I am every week.
Nice switch up !!! Looks fantastic !!!
Thank you! Cheers!
That truss solution was pure genius. Roof curve looks great.🇺🇸👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✅✅✅✅✅⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🫵🏼
That made such a difference!
Hi guys, bugs looking 👀 good.
Love the top.
Big fan 4 years,keep em comin y’all!🇺🇸🤘🏽👏🏽🛻🚗👽🔧
I've fought my own work before, hating to redo stuff. But then I cut it back out, refab, whatever and I'm glad I did. Always room for improvement.
On the inside, where the truss is you can dress it up as a feature of the interior, food for thought
I see that truss being a problem hanging down from the roof. Some round tube would be adequate. Given the tube becomes shorter when bent , if its fixed securely at both ends it cant straighten , thus retaining its curve.
Hey man , watching you on TV now , and watching this video , enjoy watching both ,awesome work 👍👍😬😬😬😬😬 on tv is VW trike ,three wheelin , back in 2015
