Model T Rat Rod Build - T Wrecks, From Junk Parts to a Roller with Halfass Kustoms
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- Taking a break from wrenching on the LS powered C10 to spend a little time on my 27 Model T Project. All this started off as was a Model T body any NOTHING else. I did find a hacked up Model A chassis that ended up being a good starting point for the car. Brent @HalfassKustoms was a HUGE help both with advice and spare parts. This thing came together is just a few days of wrenching. We added a kick to the frame to house the new truck axle. Then made a set of hairpins for the front axle and held it all up with a trailer spring. The next step will be a 2 bar trailing arm rear suspension and a little more chop. I'm excited to get this hot rod together!

Make sure to leave a comment and let me know what you think about the T. Also what do you think I should name it? So far my favorite has been T Wrecks!
T-wrecks is a dope name, i cant wait to see what you do with her. 🤘

How about RatTee.
it's like naming a junk yard dog.. T bone. so maybe the name "T bones" sums it all up. just saying. it's made from many old bones...
Depending on how far in the future you plan re: power and how much you want to spend, I'd be tempted by the vintage Caddy engine up locally, it would make it more of an early '60s period piece and a bit more uncommon. Got a soft spot for BBC, still...style wise guessing this will end up relatively close to that yellow one in your ad.
This is the first time I realized you did more than Tri-Five Chevys. And I love Tri-Five Chevys, but this is very cool, too.
Hey Dan I was in your beautiful country in August I was in Toronto and Montreal I've got to come back there again one day and my wife absolutely loves the place so hopefully we can come back to your beautiful country and the people are just like Aussies so friendly so helpful not like the Americans my wife and I would live in Canada in a heartbeat
yeah i hear the same about australia. very friendly people
Love how the Dog just sits there patiently supervising haha. Seems like a sweet dog. The Hot Rod looks killer!
haha yeah the dogs are great there
"You sir" a true hot rodder,nice work man..
thanks bobby!
Nice little project that..enjoyed..👍🇬🇧
thanks!
You guys work great together -- Thanks for introducing us to Brent and his channel too! Another excellent video!
awesome! thanks for watching
I like the creative approach in using the '58 truck the front axle.
Pablo is a great supervisor!
See, I love it. When RUclipsrs collaborate. I just watched it on his channel was about done and yours popped up. Now. I get to see it from a different angle. This is always so much better. Not that your videos aren't great.
thanks buddy!
My humble opinion but; two of Canada’s great auto-you tubers:). Halfass is a machine!
thanks! hes awesome
Brent at halfass kustoms is so bad ass he can take a bucket of rust break out his wielder and make a bad ass hot rod! I have never seen someone do what he can do with a pile of junk!
Rat rods my favorite builds back in the day 👍
Dan the tea is coming along really nice and kind of quick to thanks to Brent at half ass. That's probably one of the best friendships you'll ever create in your whole life, you guys should create a partnership and open your own shop. That's what I would do. Name the car T for 2.
thanks buddy!
DAMN that guy Brent is GOOD
What a terrific opportunity to learn about building hot rods.
yeah its awesome!
T Wrecks is brilliant for a name !!!!
Wasnt sure what to think of that project when I first saw it but its coming alive.
haha yeah i wasnt to sure either
I love that guy. He's like the guys who I grew up with. don't overthink this will work!! And that's going to turn out to be badass!!
he definatly doesnt overthink much haha
Brent has a lot of parts, it's good to have friends like that.
parts and storage haha
I just saw the same Collaborative Build on HalfAss Kustoms with you two. I think it's great that you're colleagues in Hot Rods and you both deserve all the complimentary credit that can be given! Brent's the better envisionary machinist but you're the better Narrator. He shows how to do stuff but you explain what's going on in better detail.
haha were a good team
"THE DYNAMIC DUEL"
you guys together are Awesome!!!!
Cheers!!!!👍👍
I own a 70ty C10. I redid it once, and I am almost done on its 2nd transformation. That being said, I love watching hot rods come together from vintage steel. Looking forward to seeing the T come together.
thanks for hanging out buddy
I'm Loving this T build. I once built a Model T...C Cab rod. My body was equally as ruff. So I feel ya! ...Newk from Kentucky
Made my day. Kickass duo, Halfass Kustom and D and D Speed dooin it to it. Enjoyed it. Thanks.
awesome! thanks man
That was a GREAT vid. Brent is an awesome friend. He's got knowledge and talent. you two make an awesome team. HEY YOU CAN TAKE A HIT AND DID NOT FALL DOWN!!
haha yeah hes a good guy
Good work man 👍
thanks buddy!
Love watching it in fast mode an watching the dog supervise both of you guys making sure you build it right 🐶 lol
haha that dog keeps us inline
ALWAYS A GREAT DAY TO LEARN SOMETHING NEW !!!! KOOL LOOKING T !! THANKS !
yeah i learned alot!
Rusty T! Looking forward to the next video!
Its amazing how fast your builds come together put the big block chevy in it
i gotta say brent from halfass made it go quick
@@DDSpeedShop its awesome on your builds I want to see the c10 done 😁
Brent at H.A.C. definitely knows his shit. Thanks for the intro to his channel. Love his Pontiac build and the T collaboration. Good content.
thanks buddy! hes a good dude
At 3.44 the dog begins overseeing the build. LOL probably thinking hey fella you were going to build me a new insulated kennel today... this kennel dont look too well insulated. love your vids man my favourite watch for weeks now.
I’ll say one thing you are a go getter. I love it
i dont have brakes haha
I like your idea of breaking the two projects up,I'm more interested in the Trod now,either way something for everyone!
yeah its nice to take a break here and there
I love this half ass custom this man is awesome
This is the first time I saw this and I Love it! You two knocked this out really fast. I really want one so my searching hot rods brought me to you. I've been watching you quite a bit, I thought I subscribed if not I will now. I want to go back and see the rest of this build. Great job for both of you, I will check out his channel now.
It's cool. Name it t-bone because of all the bonking you'll get in that thing!
haha yeah
thats cool! Nice job. my dad and I had a buddy that had a whole bunch of stuff like that laying around with all kinds of tools and equipment and he'd let us use anything. He's gone on now and all his property got sold and cleaned out. all that stuff is probably melted down now! some guys just get after it and before you know it you're working with something. No sense standing around thinking about things.
haha yeah, there was no overthinking when it came to this
It's so siiiick!!!!! I cant wait to see what you gonna do with it and the C10
im just winging it haha
I dig both projects. Halfass is doing something that has caught your interest, I'm sure not your first roller frame but no shame if it is as that always holds a guy back. Taking a break from the c10 will allow you to come back and finish. I have got started on stuff like it and so committed that too late to change to a different, not necessarily better but different outcome. I know that your holding costs down on the truck build cause they can be money pits. It will greek up when the primer goes on and some wheels of choice gives it direction. I like working as a team on some things but like the roadster that is next is halfass's regular day job and he is enjoying company and giving him a break as well from the 38 pontiac that has come to finishing touches. As it gets better, you need to sell to keep money coming in and its starting to warm the heart a little. Ya let them go before paint or then its harder still. I do comment on his stuff a lot so maybe or maybe not member my name. I just wish I was there doing some down and dirty makes you feel like you did something. While up there take a look at some of his front end/rear end attachments and see which way you go next time as you have enough to go back to back and its cheaper than building double nickel chevys. Anyway a hi to both and see if he does remember the name (me). You guys could team up on one build only spendy project for a club car or whatever turns your crank.... luck to both
Love your channel brother you prove you can build awesome car for little or no money you are truly old-school bro.thank you for all the information and ideas. time.hardwork.looking forward for more video's
awesome! thanks for the support my friend
@@DDSpeedShop your are very welcome there is a old junk yard near me in Rhode island were I live I am going this weekend I will keep my eyes open for parts that I mite think you would be interested in the place has been there since the late 40s love going too fined things.thank you again
Gutter done!! Looks great lots of fun and good therapy keep up the good work Dan
thanks for watching buddy!
Love that you and Brent from Halfass are working a collaboration! I'm tuned in for sure!
sweet! thanks for watching
I were just as amazed as the dog. Wow u2 are fast !!
haha hes a good dog
That "T" is going to be a lot of fun.
yeah its a blast
I think the T is cool. Get a lot more done than me. Rock on.
haha 2 people working help
This is one of the best videos i have ever seen!!!!! So informative. 😎
thanks buddy!
Great looking, T wrecks name is good too. A little pinstriping and the name painted on the tail will fit right in there. Thanks for sharing
yeah a little messing around and itll be mint
I love chopped tops as well..... But as it already has a poor chop... I'd just clean up and finish the top and keep the remaining height! Those T are freaking cool.
yeah i think ill just take an inch out of it
Great collab, you dudes get a bunch done together, that T’s gonna be cooler than Kool-aid....
yeah im stoked on it!
Good to see you're moving ahead with the rat rod
thanks buddy!
Another great video. Thank you from Holland !
wow! thanks for watching
Really cool video .. especially nice that you have someone to guide you thru out this build.
yeah sure saves alot of time
I sure like how this is shaping up.
yeah me too, its coming around
Hi Dan I reckon you and Brett work very well together I think you should do more projects together I mean I love your channel and I like his channel that's just awesome to see both of you come together to help each other out I think you should call it the" crocodile rod" LOL bit of a Australian theme I love your work keep it up guys Jim from Australia
thanks jim! were talking about some weekend builds in the summer
Welcome to the club Dan hot rods are cool mate
yeah i think im hooked
I LOVE IT!!!
Instant T..some assembly required. 😂
It's awesome to see a couple Hot Rodders get together and build something super cool. It's just badass to see a pile of junk come together into a work of art.
LOVE IT..LOVE IT..LOVE IT!!
Word of advice Dan...watch your head on the roof rail when you get out of it. Haha!!
Can't wait to see what's next.
Cheers from Saskatchewan
haha "instant"
@@DDSpeedShop Haha!! Brent's a Helluva fabricator. You got a good man to help you out. Just saw his version of the build process. That man can make a silk purse out of a pig's asshole. Haha!!
The T is looking good already. If it was mine I'd call it the "not tee".
haha thats a good one
My dream car....really cool video,thanks for sharing...
Thanks for watching!
Very nice DD. Nice hot rod!
I’m excited to see this build.
haha thanks buddy!
Great job you two! Super happy for you and Queen D.The T looks super slick, glad to see a straight axle with hairpins on an open wheeler.The rear suspensions going to be fun to see come together more as things progress.It's going to be a whole different animal for you ...KEEP HAVING FUN WITH IT. It sure must be amazing to get to work with Brent.
yeah im pretty stoked on it! fun doing somthing new!
Good stuff guys. Fabing on the fly; two day roller!!
it goes fast!
I love this build.. Heck I like any builds and how to stuff
im the same way haha, thanks!
Absolutely love the rod
thanks! me too
Can't wait to see this cruising down Portage! Already got a project, with plans for a second, now I'm daydreaming a Model T as well 🤦♂️
haha nice! flag me down when you see me
Love the T! still want to here the truck run.
yeah me too. should happen soon
Pretty amazing for no longer that you worked on it!!!
yeah it went together quick
Good car friends and garages are hard to find. Awesome, and subscribed!
awesome! thanks buddy. hard to find good people
I dig it. I've always wanted a 27 T
theyre still out there. keep your eyes peeled
This is really great! I wish I lived closer. You two don't mess around. Love the progress. Thanks for sharing your projects with all of us.
Ryan.
no problem! thanks for watching
Great custom build! It's nice to have Brent's expertise to learn from, eh?
oh ya, hes got alot of knowlegde
Looks great! Looks fun. Always great to work with friends.
I loved the supervisor sitting at the front watching progress.
Keep it up! 👍
haha thanks for the support!
Pretty cool! Power to weight ratio it will be sick no matter what engine you stick in it! It's so light! Heck even a V 6 would be fast in that!!! An L S would be king Kong!!!
haha yeah i think a simple small block would be lots!
That’s an awesome build brother. Go with the name “Atlas”!
thanks!
It's nice to see you and Halfass coliding!
yeah easy guy to work with
@@DDSpeedShop The best kind of people. Haha
Looking forward to C10 stuff!
back at it as we speak
I say that comes out awesome
good things always happen when the PBR comes out. i like the style. old school, just find some scrap and make it work. no fancy store bought parts. excellent
haha exactly
Looks like you are having fun. Sorry the truck bums you out. Everything is looking kool.
haha yeah ill be good when its done
I think the truck is going to turn out great but the t is going to be very interesting to watch putting together 👍
yeah very very different builds
WOW YOU GUYS MOVE FAST!!!
fast motion helps haha
Looks like a great fun project.And it is very cool that you are doing it with halfass customs, I follow him as well. It’s also great to see how much you guys got done over a weekend! 👍👍👍
thanks bill! it was cool seeing it come together
I only wish I could be there to help! Nobody I know around here wants to do stuff like that with me. I'm jealous.
Danielle says hello to you and yours!
yeah i hear ya man. gotta find some like minded people
Fine fine job fellas
thanks man!
Simply fantastic video Dan , I love how the dog was chilling out watching you guys . By far my second fav build the 55 being my favourite . Cheers .
thanks man! im ready to bring the 55 back out haha
I see you already have that guy who shows up to hold the beer!
he was crutial haha
That's the _shop foreman_ a crucial component to any build.
like to hear from the ol boy. keep up the good work,
will do! thanks
That was a great video , I like the projects you do .
thanks buddy!
Hi Dan. Nice video. Im diggin the rat rod! It will be a blast!
thanks buddy!
That is awesome work you guys are doing. Halfass is pretty good at building Rat Rods. This is very exciting I couldn't wait to watch this video as soon as I saw it. Bat wings, that is genius your friend knows what to do to get a chassis fixed up to be a roller for a hot rod rat mobile hes cool. I wouldn't have the slightest idea what to do? I am watching this intensely never seen it done before in detail like that. Just the right parts to gather up like the spring from a trailer and nice arched new one that just fits the T. Nice heavy 2x4 tube steel that is nice for the frame. Thanks this was a very good video to watch Im really excited about this build yes. Yeah makes the C/10 seem boring now that your doing this Model T. But you gotta get the C/10 running before you sell it Im sure someone will fall in love with it. I love to see people fix up model As and Ts you all are saving the world one T at a time. Killer man. Next you could do a 31 coupe model A 5 window or something like that. LOL =) This T build is going make some great videos for sure.
thanks! my plan is to learn on this T, then I can move on to the roadster our 5 window coupe. But first I gotta buckle down and finish this truck haha
I posted before on your T . I do need to get back to mine it is so very close to getting a hot Rod as a daily driver. This one in inspiring . Thanks and I already subscribed to Halfass Customs and just subscribed to yours.
awesome! thanks for the support ed
Super cool man!
thanks buddy!
love the Hot Rod!
thanks man! me too
Wow, awesome, another great series! Thanks for sharing.
