- What do we do when we need some measurements? Well we head over to Galpin Speed Shop and visit MFS alumni and good friend Dave Shuten! We spend some time with Tweedy Pie as Lucky gathers some intel on the construction of that peskey steering box mount and we learn abount Super Grape Poly III. Then back at the shop Lucky gets to it and fabricatrs the mount.
WE ALSO HAVE NEW MERCH! Our buddy artist Evan Daines did an amazing illustration of the car. We have Tee's, Stickers and a cool posters as well as Mad Fabricators Tess too! available at monstersareout.com

Cloning a car is 100% harder than building a car from scratch. Big ups!
Thanks Edward..
Being original and hitting a home run with originality is much harder than a copy in my opinion. There’s a reason why people copy, being truly original is dam difficult
I have watched this entire series so far and Lucky’s contributions can not underplayed… watching him lovingly build that steering box floored me.
I agree! Thanks Geoff..
🙏 Thank you so much!
Another good episode, friends building cars 👍👍
and i was just about to head off to bed. curses!
Always fun hanging in Lucky’s garage watching him build stuff. Thanks for making that happen. And the music kicks ass
Thanks for watching!
Found this channel by chance. I used to have a bunch of Mad Fabricator DVDs back in the 2010's when i was heavily into hot-rodding and built a Roth-inspired C Cab. Took it to one car show, drove it home, then started reworking some stuff on it. Lost interest and moved onto classic VWs.
Now this series has me inspired to drag the old C Cab out and have another crack at it.
Although I'm a keen Roth fan, Tweedy Pie never attracted my attention much. I thought it was just another T Bucket. Watching this build I'm amazed at just how unique it was and how much ingenuity and creativity went into the car's chassis and underpinnings.
Been binge-watching all the episodes over the past few nights.
I happen to be a fan of Dave Shuten's work too, so great to see him getting involved.
Fantastic project brother, thanks for taking me along for the journey!
Man I’m glad my little videos inspired you to get back in the shop and take another stab at it!! Your motivation in infectious for me as well!! If these videos can inspire even just one person to get in the garage and go…well then this is the payoff for all the work that goes into these videos.. I love everything about this!! Let’s all build cool stuff!! PS I dig old bugs too!! Thank for joining the channel there’s plenty of content to watch so enjoy!!!
@@MADFABRICATORSTV Thanks brother!
next time you bump into Dave Shuten, let him know he has a HUGE fan here in New Zealand, especially since he restored Dan Woods' Ice Truck and Pizza Wagon, the two cars that inspired my C cab's body style.
Much respect.
I love the build! So does my son. At 10, he has decided to start building his own hot rod.
That’s really awesome! I hope the youth get into it or it’s all gonna be doom
What a beautiful piece of fab work Lucky!!!
🙏
Very cool I enjoy the craftsmanship and of course the original car thanks for the video
I really admire the attention to detail. With most casual onlookers you guys could get away with a lot, but you choose to do it right. I'm getting the feeling it's way harder to reproduce a car than it was for the original guys to build them. 😎
I think it is. I have always thought these early builders just built with whatever they had as there wasn’t a big way to find specific parts. It always makes me think when I did my race car I used what worked and was on hand. Granted I had collected parts with the ease of the internet for years… haha
We are kinda like archaeologist haha reverse engineering the car is kinda fun figuring what they did and how! 🤓 it helps that we have access to the real car to get the exact details right ..
Looking great. Lucky sure does awesome work.
Hey, good job on that firewall 😁👍
That Lucky is a great fabricator 😎 love his salt flats coupe 🥰
Great job. You guys are a very talented group of individuals.
Thanks! 🤙🏽
Very cool really enjoyed! 👍👍
Awesome! They even had that steering box right in the model kit.
Looks great, good to have friends like lucky.
Very interesting to see what the build quality was actually like back in the day, not knocking it at all
But it was very much about getting a look and doing it quickly with basic tools, we need to remember that most home car hobbie nuts have more tools in their on garage than most professional mechanics had
Great build and enjoy the video, thank you for taking the time to share with us all
Yeah for sure.. Bob and Dick were doing it all in a 2 car garage with what they had. Dick was more of a machinist so although some stuff was crude other things were well made.. so it’s a good balance :)
GREAT VIDEO, GLAD TO SEE YOU GUYS BACK ON THIS
Another great video! Keep the content coming! Keep moving forward!
Awesome love it
Man I didn’t no you lived so close to the early ford store. I was over there in 2019 for the gnrs and found the store by chance as we was walking to the chemists. For no no no eye drops. This and all the others. And we mist lucky at the salt same year. I must get my stars to get in a row next time. Keep up the good work Tim from England.
These videos are really great!
Each vid gets better and better! Great job! Really cool to see the progress
Nice work guys.
man your so lucky to have lucky that dude can fab! she is looking great man! great EP!
Haha I am and so is he to have me! Hah so it works out 😂😂😂 🤙🏽
@@MADFABRICATORSTV you got da skills to man! loving this build! keep kick ass!
Great episode! Always look forward to these!
Thanks!
Pretty sure the Bugs at 0:25 were made into model kits in the early 70's ! I remember building them ! Great to see more progress and some of the building for the build ! Best days to you all 👍
Yes they were called Zingers and they made some big ones they would tour to all the shows..
@@MADFABRICATORSTV- Digging deep for those memories friend !
Ps. Have all your dvds music as well. I no it’s old now but would of loved to keep the collection going. Thanks.
Lucky killing it on the fab work as usual and Piero kills it on the camera and editing!
Thank you Andre!
The tube under the engine of Tweedy Pie is a road draft tube , and it's a one year only deal . Did you notice there was no oil filter ? That's right , that is a 1955 Chevy 265 V8 . In '55 the oil filter was optional and mounted above the thermostat housing. The '55 road draft tube went thru the block where the oil filter canister was moved to in '56 , with the road draft mounted behind the back of the block on the passenger side . In '63 they went to the pcv system .
Love it!
Nice job on that firewall! Wanna come out and do mine? 🤘😎
Thanks for showing all the sweet footage of how you and Lucky fabricate these amazing bits and pieces. Lovin' it!
Thanks for watching!
So glad I found this channel, you guys are doing some amazing work in your recreation! The skill Lucky has building these parts is awesome and you are getting closer each episode!
🙏
Thanks for joining the channel and support!!
Coming along nicely, what's great about the build is it's telling a story of Tweedy Pie whilst creating it's own story. Shame i cannot watch the first car that ate my brain, amazon doesn't allow it in my location (UK)
You’re lucky to have Lucky.
And he’s lucky to have me 😂🤓
Good job lucky.
The Devils in the details!
Lucky's the man!!!
He’s ok 😂🤣
6:30 Lucky's hair is so greased that you had to slide a drip tray under him?
No grease in my hair ever. Nice try though
😂😂
Grease? Hah he wakes up and his hair is perfect he doesn’t even need comb 🤣🤣
@@luckyburton4787 what do you use instead?
@@2snow just some gel. Any kind of grease, beeswax brylcream and what not pulls your hair out. I never used that stuff and still have all my hair😆
So awesome, as usual!! Love seeing this come together!! Great job, guys!!
I agree Matthew!
Thanks! Wish I didn’t have a “real job” taking up most of my time.. but we do the best we can :)
@@MADFABRICATORSTV 👍
62nd!
Great episode man. 👏
Just located the Channel, really cool content, @ 8:17 is The “Psychedelic Relic” THAT is a Work of ART !!! Breezed through your catalog of vids. and nothing on that one, can we get a Vid. on THAT?
So that car is built by Dave and it’s called the Iron Orchid it’s been featured on Discovery and a ton of videos and magazines.. I will be doing a tour some day of the collection just kinda restricted till they put out some content of there own. :)
@@MADFABRICATORSTV “Psychedelic Relic” That was the Headliner in Hot Rod Mag. when I saw it, in the Mag Pics. the undercarriage is JUST as nice as the body finish, as well as built with period CORRECT items. I reiterate Work of ART !!!
Awesome work! Lucky is a really talented builder and a REALLY patient guy! Haha. Cheers from Brazil! Oh, and how's the green Lambo thing, is it going? 😆
Hahah still working on the Lambo 🤣 a little closer every video I release haha
What did they do before angle grinders and plasma cutters 😂🤣
Haha lots of torching 🔥😂
New episode.. 😃
