OMG Ellie. Boomer here. I love your videos and your enthusiasm. I have been watching your videos for quite some time and you continually blow me away. Press on and let nobody distract you from your vision, exuberance and enthusiasm. You have a gift and never doubt it.
Wow! Mr. Ed & his wife are just great! Carl looks wonderful!!! You your dad have done a marvelous job. Can't wait to see what you're doing to Carl next week.
This is my absolute favorite car series by far! You guys are awesome! We have a couple old cars and I've always outsourced the work but you guys have me on the lookout for an old Mustang for my kids and I to restore ourselves this time!
Thank you SO MUCH for that encouragement!! We have the best time--even when we don't know what we're doing (which is most of the time). The best part is getting to do it together. Good luck on finding a project for you and your family!
Cheers to Ellie, Mr. Ed and your whole support team! Carl is lookin great! This is the 1st episode I've seen. Can't wait to go back and see the others from the beginning. What you've learned and accomplished will give you the confidence to do great things. Best wishes!
Isn't it amazing what a cut and buff will do for a paint job? It became very clear very early that Mr. Ed knows what he is doing in regard to paint jobs. He waited a number of weeks to allow the paint to fully cure before tackling the orange peel. My dad was a body man who painted cars nearly every day for customers of the body shop. Those paint jobs had to be in and out as quickly as possible...so the paint was only given a couple days to cure before cutting and buffing were done. But on the show cars that Dad painted....and he did a lot of show cars and high end restorations over the course of his career....he would let the paint cure for a couple months before color sanding and buffing. I am so glad that Mr. Ed stepped up and offered his assistance and expert knowledge in painting and finishing Carl's stunning Neptune Green.
Getting your own mini-Carl was such a cool surprise, what a great gift. Awesome job on the sanding, no polishing, that shine when you were done looked amazing.
Wonderful progress. It is great to see all your efforts paying off. The Car community is amazing. So many are willing to share their knowledge and experience.
Actually, we have only finished the exterior and now we're turning our attention to the interior. Lots to do there but I'm most excited about converting my bench seat to bucket seats! It's going to be so cool!!!
@@ElliesGarage I look forward to seeing the bench seat to bucket seat conversion. Are you going to use an OE Falcon bucket and console or updated bucket or aftermarket?
Great work! Carl looks really good. Mr. Ed is a great teacher and it's wonderful of him to give so much of his time. We need more car people like him in the hobby! ~Pat
What fun! I've done this myself, and it's lovely to see others enjoying this process, too. I also noticed that I really liked how this episode was cut and edited. Superb! I hope you all jumped into Carl and had a nice and fun road trip in your pride and joy! Aloha!
Well done your car looks amazing I did my car a few years ago and it feels so wrong sanding a car that you just painted 😂 but it has to be done enjoy your car and I hope you make more cool videos in the future
The car looks really good. My Dad bought a red Ford falcon new in 1964 he paid 2800.00 for the it the dealership took a 100.00 off because my mom didn't like red and because Dad paid for it with cash got to love the price of cars back then .you have a Great day and keep up the good work
1:00 If you only drive in the rain for the rest of your life no one can see the orange peel or dust nibs and you don't have to do any -sanding- _polishing._ 1:50 Did they find it in that color or did he secretly save some of the paint from your car for the miniature? The first time I color sanded a car I felt the same way. It sure feels weird, but fascinating too.
The car looks awesome! Now tell the truth how many hours have you spent just staring at Carl. 😃 Nothing better than the feeling you get when you know your hands did most of the work. Looks like you guys are almost done, What's Next?
Thank you so much!! A LOT of hours. He looks so great!! We have just finished up the exterior, but there's still a lot left to do on the interior. I'm most excited about converting the front seat to bucket seats. Can't wait!!
@@ElliesGarage You might want to look into mustang seats they may be compatible as both cars shared the same Chassie. also, there are a ton of aftermarket seat repair kits for them.
We shot it, but haven't been able to edit the show into the mix just yet--too busy moving forward to get ready for shows and next stages. We might do a flashback episode to get those in.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for the kind words and for supporting our channel!!

I have been watching you and dad from the start, and it is obvious that you and Carl are really starting to shine!
I'm glad you cried at the small Carl because I did also. Great people there.

Fancy orbital sander. I imagine Carl's finish look like glass. Nice color choice. Way to go Ellie and Team Ellie!
I’m pretty sure you know this, but you are very fortunate to have such wonderful people in your life. Keep it up.
Exactly right and I'm so thankful!
Getting your own mini-Carl was such a cool surprise, what a great gift. Awesome job on the sanding, no polishing, that shine when you were done looked amazing.

Wet sanding to remove orange peel then buffing it out. I've done it a few times but not on a car yet .Looking really good .Always nice to have help .

It's scary sometimes but thank you for the encouragement to keep going!!

Will you make it to the Facon nationals? I hope so...
Yes sir! We'll be there!!
Where is the rest of the assembly? Front back glass? Grill, bumpers…
We shot it, but haven't been able to edit the show into the mix just yet--too busy moving forward to get ready for shows and next stages. We might do a flashback episode to get those in.
I feel your pain. I have sanded hundreds of hours. I am spraying clear today.... Check it out Geek and Son.
We will! And good luck with your project!!
Personally I blame squirrels
