    I’m not a fan of overlapping metal panels. I’ve found that rust transfers, so if one panel begins to rust, it will transfer the rust to the overlapping panel.

    After restoring and modifying cars for 54 yrs, I could see this mammoth job coming when u started. Restos like this are cost prohibitive nowadays for most. Especially on the 56 Plymouth. I am not condemming the car , just saying that they do not appeal to most car guys. While I admire all the beautiful work that you are doing here, I would suggest that a modern powertrain be installed like a gen 3 hemi to instill excitement and value to this old girl. A good color/wheels and interior will also make this old timer much more appealing to the boys with "money". Either way, if u wish to keep it, it will be another projecyt that you and Jolene can be very proud of. Thanks and Good Luck bro!

      He is selling it for cost, no charge for labor. He will not be painting it or engine swapping, it’s already a good runner. Buyer will have a great base for a project. I find these models are becoming more appealing and are a great first car to get into the hobby without spending a small fortune.

      That would work out to less than 30 cents each to donate
      Small price to pay for us to show appreciation

    I normally sandblast, cut out the worst then reconstruct with fresh metal as long as there is enough weldable meat left. depending how complex the piece is to fabricate I may go with a full build.

    Who can ever say anything about bad chad? This man is creative. Awesome fabricator and an inspiration as a 58 year old man pursuing his dream which was a post apocalyptic rat rod all thanks to Chad he does this we had a dream building. Whatever you want you can do. We love you Chad and queen Jolene, you are the best of what you do and you’re an artist.

    I sand blast cars... A lot of your cars are really rusty being in the north.. Really makes the difference .. Is this a classic car? I would't spend time restoring anything but a classic.. Great job tho .. I been restoring cars 35 years... Boittnots by far best restoration shop in the World ...His restorations and Airbrush talent like no other.. Excited to see Jolene's Bugati finished...

  • @rodjames2
    @rodjames2 Год назад +2

    I have to say guys that Chad is putting a lot of labor labor into this Plymouth but it is worth it. Every surprise find of rust just means your fans get to watch more great repairs done correctly. Its a win win as they say! The floor isn't factory correct but it is done safer than the factory. I would like to see you actually clean and paint this car unless it cuts into Bugatti time lol.

  • @danielplummer6385
    @danielplummer6385 Год назад +6

    Hi Chad & Jolene, the Plymouth is getting really close to done and I believe it will be well worth the price for somebody. Chad who knew when you started on it that it would have that amount of rust. You have done a great job of eliminating the rust with new metal. As long as it is just driven in the good weather months the car will last for a long time. Jolene great video as always we have been able to learn alot from this project. It has been nice seeing a straight up repair on this car a little variety although I imagine Chad has his creative juices overflowing at this point. Are we hopefully going to get to see more work on your Bugatti? I hope everything is okay with Fina I have not noticed her in the last few videos.

    Chad, great repair on the rad support, by the way , that undercoating was called Zeibart , there was another called Tuffcote that I used back in the 70's on a couple of my cars.Back in my younger days, I had a 1955 Dodge Mayfair v-8 two dr, purportedly from Nova Scotia.

    Hello Chad I'm from Australia did many resto mods over the years we used fish oil for hard-to-get hidden places best time like you said is after all welding is done the fish oil capillaries uphill into cavities and dries after many months leaving metal surfaces totally protected from weather and water condensation! Cheers

    This is a clean slate once Chad's done fixing the rust problems . There's so much potential in the car to become something more ! I see a totally modified car with lots of horse power a hoot rod of sorts . Thumbs-up Jolene ❤and Chad and team Hiltz you are allowing sombody to own an operate a car that you worked on speaks volumes on Chad's letting go of builds . I belive he's turning a new leaf in what he wants for himself and what he's willing to let go of . Moving forward I think the content on builds that could possibly be owned by the public is a great idea . It's only an opinion and I know Chad doesn't let go easily so it is strictly a matter of if he needs it or not !

    Hi, I think the rust coating your talking about was called 'Zbart' And your right it would turn hard and peel away from metal. Making little cups that would hold dirt water & salt ! Causing body & frame rot.. One more thing ! It would have been better to have soaked rad support in rust remover juice? And left open air. Your repair will cause part to rust ten times quicker,

  • @craigallan6229
    @craigallan6229 Год назад +13

    Always thought repair of an old car was restoration especially if you're cutting out rot and putting in good metal and not just covering the rot like those sills had before

    I guess another good reason for just covering the rad support was there was still enough structure still there for support. If there had been worse damage you would have had to cut it out.
