Thank you I did a project with the bad Chad tape trick and have now purchased a tape measure as not a thing fit, 😢 your fixing a great mess and doing it right thank you again for fixing it right
Barry Gilgen sure glad to see you guys making another video, been a long time, great watching you guys work on old hot rods, amazing how some people can make things look good but they turn out wrong and not good for the car. keep up the good work of fixing people's screw ups and making cars much better and done correctly, teach them to use a tape measure bad chad can use his eyeballs cause he has the name and the money to do it his way, but doesn't mean it is correct, I would not want to buy a car from him that he has made after watching his shows for years he is far from a professional car builder my opinion.
You got a tough kid there. I can see how some people would find you intimidating. I have a similar problem. People always think I'm mad or barely able to control myself. But also for your kid. He's not going to get cancelled. He's not offended enough people and called them on their bs. Side note. Love the work that you all do
Yes, sir and when I view "Rat Rod Bob" he lays out on the shop floor his frame reference points in order to get the frame alignment right. That gives him something to go by other than his eyeballs, that and the use of a measuring tape.
Good to see another video we don’t need to see the grading/cutting if somebody’s watching to learn how to grind and cut shit apart they need to find another hobby.
I am astonished by how such crap comes into your shop to be made right. You do the right amount of editing and explaining, please do not include more video of the a to b of grinding, welding etc.
Yes, and some of these You Tubers go into a lot of boring detail describing what they are doing. It's like watching paint dry, although one can skip past these boring details. Loco Customs is one channel that I generally watch from beginning to end. And there are some channels that I just will not watch any further than the first few minutes. Of course this is in the eye of the viewer.
Yeah brother.... step by step...show the details. Could have gone further with the tape measure thing even if it upsets your daughter! Explain why it needs to be measured diagonally as well! Pythagoras is your friend for alignments-- Please show your projects and yard Try to get something posted weekly even if it's 10 mins...will help you grow.
Question… I will be building a 64 impala convertible, I’ve had several before and they have horrible body roll, what would be the optimal suspension set up on that car to eliminate as much body roll as possible ?? Thanks so much !!!
I love the way you total engineer everything, we need a signoff by an Automotive Engineer with a university degree here in Australia when we alter anything. Check this bloke out ruclips.net/video/5qSPelc8eEg/видео.html , he looks at the issues and corrects them himself in a similar way. We also don't have a lot in the way of pre fabbed mod kits for the cars we do. Cheers.
Scary? Controversial? Just telling it like it is, if it's not in the center it's just not right. I loved teaching apprentices, only ever had one fail to make first class tradesman.
What people do not realize is that these older cars compared to today's vehicles are very narrow. Of course, these older cars did not have these larger engines, and they were simple in the suspension. You fast forward to today's "hot rods" and the challenge is how to adapt the modern suspension and drive trains to these older vehicles. with all of the computer aided design we have the privilege of being able to adapt these later styles of suspension to the older vehicles. And yes, the price is pricey, but a lot of the engineering is also done for the customer. You are right about this, though "eyeball" is no good when you are fabricating up these cars. Now I know people who are house framers that can frame up a house in no time. They have internalized the work, and they are within but not necessarily dead on the measurements but that is a different thing. You can't "eyeball" things like suspension and such and expect the proper operation. There are plenty of You Tube channels that show the proper way to set up these modifications.🥸👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Always nice to see you fixing up other people's mess ups.

But also for your kid. He's not going to get cancelled. He's not offended enough people and called them on their bs.

Your dad's right, use a friggin tape measure when setting up something as important as suspension, guesswork can get dangerous.

Well, Butcher's still hanging around and bring you hard work... Unfortunately they will not disappear.... Keep going i'm watching you!!!🙂
When I was building my hHot rod I measured everything a few times then tacked things in place then measured again before welding.
Enjoy watching and learning from your videos. Would like more info on that electric power assist steering unit. Keep up the fine work you do!
Giving me lots of good ideas. Thanks guys
nice welds

what is the electric steering out of and i would love to see more shows
what happened to the 1940 Ford? Is there going to be more videos.
The progression of the build! Tell that kid we in America have the right to free speech,,,, laws not feelings!

Tell your kids, People shouldn't build cars if they don't know how to use a tape measure You have to call it as you see it.
