  • The foxbody coupe build has started. First thing I did was strip the car completely down. Once everything was removed I was able to start building the tube front section of the car.

    That mounting plate was a nice touch. An a lot of ppl don’t realize the work that goes into building rather than buy a kit

    Still liking the conversational, less-produced format where you're just taking us along while you're hammering out work on the project and less focused on filming/framing every bit of work you do.

    You should make a carbon fiber or fiber glass inner fenders that replicate the original look of the old frame, purely for cosmetic looks, I think that would look pretty clean

    I remember the Bibster being a couple of tubes on your old shop floor. It's good to see the beginnings of another epic ride starting out in a similar way. Cheers for bringing us all along for this one and I hope you and your family have a great Christmas.

    There are carb' style throttle bodies with in-built fuel injection nozzles - if you use one of those for the petrol/gasoline, and the rails for ethanol/methanol, you can use an aftermarket EFI ECU that controls 16 nozzles and run 8 of gasoline and 8 off alcohol and simply switch over in the ECU at whatever point you want. Heck, you can make it a progressive switch over if you like.

    Looking good! When you are setting up your cuts on your plasma table, be sure to cut your interior cuts first, just so you don’t have the chance of the piece moving when the main part is done. Also noticed it cut a small section and then ended up going back over it. You should be able to run the cut path to be sure there are no double cuts. Always enjoy your content bro and how you describe in detail your thought process

    My whole purpose of searching for these videos is to eliminate the strut towers. All this work and you still have those strut towers in the way of everything.

    • @Thefabforums

      I think ridetech makes a bolt on kit to convert to double wishbone. You can then cut out the strut tower

    I'm not a metal guy, I work with wood. I like watching your channel because you are very meticulous with your work, everything is clean and well thought out. You do exceptional work, keep it up! But I got a question. The whole second half of this video all I was thinking was "why isn't he flipping the logo around on the left side tower brace?" Why? That would drive me crazy. Is there something I'm missing? Please let me know...LOL

    I have been following your channel for years starting with your carbon fiber tutorials and the wrapping of your truck. Really good tutorials and highly recommended. I have even purchased some of the tools you have featured/recommended in your tool centered videos. Thanks for sharing the knowledge and the great tutorials.
    I have one question about this video's material used in the front end and the next video's strut towers. What are the dims/specs of the chromoly tubing you use? I believe you have gone into details about it in the past, but I can't remember right off the top of my head.

    Kinda
    I got bored hearing how many times you were going to kinda do something. Why not do whatever it is rather than only kinda doing it?
    I have mentioned it many times. It really does decrease the viewing pleasure of what is otherwise brilliant content. You are one of my favorite automotive 'Tubers, but hearing you say kinda in every second sentence makes it quite painful to endure.
    I used to let it wash over me and try to ignore it, but it seems to be getting said more and more often. I do not understand it. Do you speak like that in actual conversation too?
    I am not intending to be insulting at all. It is just a suggestion that I am sure other people would agree with, that the kinda this and kinda that needs to go away.
    Merry Christmas, and best wishes to you and the family.
    Neil :-)
