    When you got it out in the sun I finally saw the Ford logo on the rear bumper. Cool.

    Wow the bumpers make a huge difference in cleaning up the look of the car. Add to or modify the pan in the rear and you are there. Adding contour to the skirts would also complete the look. This car is starting to look like a Barris' custom from back in the day. You're nailing the look of the car. I'd be proud to drive this one around this summer as it now has a very cool look.

    The gravel pan is a great idea Matt. They definitely improved the look, as in a direction you're heading in. Thanks for sharing!

    Good choice! I like the Ford script and the over-all look of moving them closer. Definitely sets it off .

    I'm amazed at how the additional sculpting on the '41 bumpers just make the front and rear jump now! This is turning into a a real classy cruiser for those Sunday drives! The '38 just might be a real keeper. You need a car for double dates!

  • @semilberger6742
    @semilberger6742 2 месяца назад

    The improved front bumper is a very good look! Kind of liked the old style of the rear, however, because those extra big "KNOBS" added some more details to the rear view. Never too late, can add 'bumper knobs' to blend with the tail-light shape.

  • @Jemini553

    bumper to body style its a hit and when you add the gravel shield to the rear boss simply "BOSS"

  • @rayk9315
    @rayk9315 2 месяца назад +2

    It's great to see the younger generation having an interest in the hot rod hobby. The bumpers look good on the car but you definitely need the gravel shield on the rear there is too much space there.

    Getting to watch Matt & Steve at ITG and Ivan & John at Shed Racing this morning was a double dose of GOOD STUFF! Absolute masters at modifying, adapting, wrangling, twisting, and as Steve mentioned, a lot of heating and bending. Bumpers look great, guys. Speaking of OCD, that loose vise is driving me nuts! How often does it have to be removed that it is left to flop around like that? Please bolt it or clamp it to the table so I can sleep at night!

  • @DuckReach432
    @DuckReach432 2 месяца назад

    The crooked rear bumper may have set off Matt's OCD, for the rest of us it was watching that unsecured vice move every time it was tightened, or the clamped bracket bent. End result for the bumpers are pretty cool. I like the small Ford logos in the centres. This car is starting to look alright.

    Yes sir, definitely shows a custom touch. A work in progress and it shows that people can work within their skill sets and equipment and have a car that they can enjoy and drive. We have a tendency to blow these cars apart and then we get attention deficit disorder and wind up with a disassembled vehicle that just takes up a bunch of space. I think that your approach to this project shows that these vehicles are indeed a work in progress.🥸👍👍👍👍👍

    Nice bumper, but is too close in the back corners. With that big gap in the middle, at least on the video, looks no harmonic for me. But this is the cool thing about the customs, you’ll never found one like the other. Good job.

    The skirts need work, and either lower the front or raise the real, possibly both. Would love to see this car repainted, perhaps blue with red flames to reflect her current condition.
