Thanks Grant. Also thanks again for the shout out on your live stream. I am looking forward to getting these doors done and moving on to the next phase of the project
I do love your work. I appreciate that you bring is along so we can learn. I'm going to paint the cab of a 1998 Chevy truck this summer so these videos will help me tackle the body work.
Thanks Dan. I want to test fit the door mirrors once I get the doors on the car. This should help. I have a couple sets of mirrors that I have about half way restored. That's another story, lots of issues. lol
Wow I have to say your videos are killing it, not only are you way more comfortable in front of the camera (and it shows) but your transitions and effects and use of music are spot on it has a VERY pro quality about it. Awesome work!
Thank you so much Scott, I have been trying to improve in several areas of the channel. Some videos just seem to come together a little easier than others. Thanks again.
I am always impressed by the care and work you put in to these cars, so I wanted to suggest an other option for the retained nuts for the mirror mount. PEM press-in nuts are another great option. Just be sure to ream the holes to he exact diameter. If you don't want to rely on just the teeth, you can always weld them on as well. If you're going to weld nuts on and it's not a high-load application, consider stainless steel for less thread deformation, and no zinc grinding. Keep up the great work, I expect to see it at a car show sometime if you ever make it out west!
Russ I’m pretty sure I just love you , your vid quality is excellent, camera work ... excellent , quality of work .. excellent! You should have 10k subs easy .
Thanks John, I think before I skin my 72 doors, I will also add this to them. I probably will use a dab of blue loktite during the install as well. I think it should work ok.
Great job Russ! I've watched all your videos lol I binge watched when I had the flu and nobody wanted to come near me 👍😂😂😂. I've watched the nuts and bolts one several times lol that's my favourite! 😍
Same here, I spend most of my day breaking up ice inside my garage, it flooded after everything melted and then froze again... I'm so done with Winter!
Oh man, sorry to hear about the snow guys. Yep, that was our nicest day in a long time and I just happened to be off from work. We have had alot of rain though. My back yard is so muddy and soft. I'm looking forward to Spring too.
@@DoubleRRestorations I use 50/50 water to swimming pool acid. Add acid to water not the other way around, preferably outside. Takes 5 minutes or so, longer if you watch, ha ha.
Thanks for stopping by, this is one step closer to trying out this reproduction door skin. Once this door skin is in epoxy, we then will move on to the door shell. Also be sure to check out the channel's home page, I have changed a lot of things around and even added some new things. Subscribe here : bit.ly/2VOKOaa , Thanks, Russ
Mike, I have been using Southern Polyurethanes, (SPI). They are located in Georgia. I use their Solvent base cleaner #710, then 30 minutes later followed up with their waterborne #700.
Gonzo, Are you asking about the one at 5:47? That's a Norton grinding wheel 89034. amzn.to/2O10OmW. They are expensive, but last a long time. Best thing I have found to grind down welds. Also in this vid I show it as well, I talk about the different wheels I use at the 14:12 mark. ruclips.net/video/HptITAI7bho/видео.html
Thank you. I also get alot of grief about it from friends. It's just the way I like to do stuff, or I have it in my mind that it has to be done like that. Lol. Thanks for watching
Another quality repair/upgrade to your project Russell!!!!! Thanks for bringing us along.... Cheers!!!
Thanks Mike. I appreciate the kind words
Thumbs up for the patience it takes to get things to turn out right. I wish I had more of that in my body.
Thanks Grant. Also thanks again for the shout out on your live stream. I am looking forward to getting these doors done and moving on to the next phase of the project
@@DoubleRRestorations well deserved for sure
Meticulous work, Russ and very instructional.
Thanks George.

Thanks Wyatt and thanks for the kind words. That sounds like a fun project. I'll be watching.
Very detailed Russ , well done 👍
Thanks Steve. I know sanding is boring, but for some strange reason, I enjoy it. lol
Nice work Russ, all that cleanup pays off.
Thanks Wendell. It sure does!
Nice work Russ! The door skins are coming along nicely. Great idea welding nuts to the door skin mirror brackets.
Thanks Dan. I want to test fit the door mirrors once I get the doors on the car. This should help. I have a couple sets of mirrors that I have about half way restored. That's another story, lots of issues. lol
Nice work as always. Glad to here your having some good weather!
Thanks Sam. That was our nicest day so far. Today was good, but windy. Looking forward to Spring.
Nice clean work, Russ. Enjoyed the video.
Thanks Indy. I was wondering how am I going to make a vid on sanding. lol

Looks good Russ! Lots of work sanding those down, but well worth it!
Thanks Jay. I was surprised that the rusty nos one came as clean as it did.
Great video as usual Russ. I like your detail in everything you do. The car will be better than new when finished.
Thanks Roger.

Some great tips James. Thanks for sharing!

I feel the same way about you and your vids Roger. I have several bookmarked on my PC for reference.
Just PRO job, man! Very nice work, i have to say..!! 👍👍
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Nice work as always. I like your mirror welded nuts vs the factory sheetmetal screws.
Thanks John, I think before I skin my 72 doors, I will also add this to them. I probably will use a dab of blue loktite during the install as well. I think it should work ok.
Hi Russ. Great job on the mirror bracket. Excellent close-up camera work.
Thanks Wiley.
It looks so pretty :) Nice work Russ
Thanks Erik. Too bad I can't leave it in the bare metal. lol
Awesome video Russ! I love how smoothly it flows and it's very quick paced. Keep the great content coming!
Thanks Bart. That means alot. As you know this is something that I have been trying to improve on with each video. Some are easier than others. lol
@@DoubleRRestorations I can definitely tell. The videos have been getting better and better.
Thanks Bart. I appreciate that!
Great job Russ! I've watched all your videos lol I binge watched when I had the flu and nobody wanted to come near me 👍😂😂😂. I've watched the nuts and bolts one several times lol that's my favourite! 😍
Ah, thanks Niamh. I hope they cheered you up, and I hope your feeling better now.
They sure did! All better now, it was a few months ago but I enjoyed it 👍😂😂
Glad to hear. I had a tough time with the flu at the beginning of 2018, was sick for several weeks. I was worried about it going into 2019.
70 degrees out? wow almost can paint outside! Just plowed 5 inches of snow and slop.. here.. I envy you!

Sorry to hear Bart. I hope all is well with your garage.
@@DoubleRRestorations yeah it's drying now. It was so ridiculous today I decided to film it. Lol
Great video Russ. Give muratic acid a try for removing zinc prior to welding hardware.
Thanks Tom, sounds like a cool trick.

Russell, What is your go-to Wax and Grease Remover?

Hey Russ what kinda grinding wheel was that. Who makes it? Thanks for the info.

you sure have me beat on attention to detail, people make fun of me for that. A finished product says it all though
