RE: FORD PARTS: When I started in a body shop in 1957, yes 1957 and it was a lead shop! The first "BONDO" was "Per-Mend" 2 part powder IN 1957. I copied a very useful tool which I still have and use once in awhile. !937 FORD friction jack. Similar to the old VW one. I brazed onto the end of the shaft a threaded pipe coupler and attached the rubber "PORTAPOWER" end and used it for jacking apart panels etc. This is quicker than assembling a set of "PORTAPOWER" pipes. Much faster and quite strong. I copied it from the shop foreman who was a flathead roundy round stock car owner/driver. OH, what times we had, but they are long gone as well as my friends. Great videos that bring back many memories!! THANKS!
Isn't it great to see these young guys working on old metal? I hope they keep passing the torch.
Podcast with Steve will be awesome, he's been such an asset at the shop. And the mystery of how he obtained all his skills. Steve seems to have warmed up to being on cam for your videos. 👍
I would like to know what kind of car does Steve Drive
@@outboardnutmy bet is a modern pickup.
I just want to say this as well. Your office looks like a really nice space to be in 👍
Thanks! It’s nice to have a dedicated office now!
Thank you Matt and Mike for sharing all of this information with me ! I really enjoy watching and learning stuff from you guys !
Great conversation thanks for including us in y’all’s adventures.
"It's got to be one color!" That's the lecture I got from my dad one day back in the early 70's when I was building/driving my 62 VW bus. Between its original two-tone colors and a multitude of various primers from rust repair and dent repair, it was at least 5 or 6 different colors. So one weekend a buddy and I used a Sears electric paint sprayer and painted the whole thing blue.
Dude!!! Great pod/video!!! Portland Oregon swap meet first week in April!!! Pocket full of cash!!! My wagon in tow!!!✌️
Absolutely loved this style of podcast. Very informative and chilling out shootin' the breeze !!!
❤❤❤
Motorcycle road racing in the 50s. I'm 80 years old. I raced with George rocket. The rocket racing the last time I saw George. I wrote Daytona in 1960 sick. And I saw George at the track and he says you know cliff? They can take everything away from us, but they can't take away our memories.
Enjoyed the old magazine review.
Matt got new jeans 👍🏽
More like this please, these are the best videos. Makes me laugh and smile a lot, Matt, Mike and Steve keep up the great work. I'm looking forward to the Steve podcast.
You might use that water pump tool when your work on an olds or Studebaker style water pump where your replacing just the impeller/pump and the housing doesn’t get changed out
You guys have come a long way since i started watching when you pulled out the forgotten hot rod or the Duesenberg out of the factory and looking for to the future journey goodluck guys
Dang 2 hours of Irontrap! Sunday service indeed!
The old magazines are a great reference
I put small blocks in everything lol I collect early small block chevy speed parts.
Thanks for the updates.
@@garycamara9955 they are to an extent but there’s good reason for it . They were cheap and plentiful as were the goodies for them. My first car had a sbc, first engine I built was an sbc, first racecar was sbc powered, my first adult job was sales counter at a speed shop and 75%+ of what I sold was for sbc I’m kind of attached.
Flatheads are my second fave but they are the best looking V8 ever built.
I put flatheads in everything! SBC's are bellybuttons. (Everybody has one)
You guys are living the dream, just don't get so big you're overwhelmed and it's not fun anymore.
Enjoyed the podcast. Great work. And insightful.
The final segment, going over that old "Little Book" reminded me of a suggestion for your FOR SALE items: segregate your literature onto a separate page. For those of us who tend to buy more books and magazines than parts, it would probably help increase sales since we wouldn't have to wade through all other ads to find them.
Great updates and info. Always cool following your adventures
Steve is a very great asset to the shop ! Please him thank you for me as he reminds me of set of twins friends of mine that we did some crazy stuff with our cars back in the '70's !
great podcast guys even without moon in attendance. btw i like the way you guys set up your website.
Great listen/watch, many thanks. You have come a long way in the last years (with a lot of hard work)
Many thanks!
Awesome shop update and really enjoyed the little book time travel! Go Iron Trap keep moving forward!
Loved the podcast video,very cool 🇦🇺🦘
Glad you enjoyed it!
I've been hanging out for the Merc chop for a while now. I was trying to get my 39 Merc to the Australian Nationals for Matt to see. It's chopped. Unfortunately, we had to turn around and head home a few hours into the trip. So we didn't get there ... my one and only chance for Mat to see it..😢
I like what Matt said about the flywheel machine might be on hold ! 😅😅😅 Right knowing Matt he'll find away to get it in the shop ! 😅😅😅
Wednesday is the day to go to Leesport, but there is a market there today, Sunday, and Cabin Fever is having a show there today as well. I might go.
Liked it all, well done guys. Just a joke in reference to Steve. Interviewer--- there seems to be a gap of 4 years in your resume--oh thats when i went to Yale---oh great you have the job then---thank you i really needed a Yob
ya just need to build a new building for the flywheel machine lol
Good Show !
Love your new office looking amazing! The windows add that Extra Touch!
I think so too!
Buddy bullsh*t sessions in your chill-out parlour is always fun. This show came across really well. It makes an enjoyable contrast to the other types of shows you produce and is a little less informal than the old 'live' sessions you did. Maybe having pals drop by to the office for a chat and bring over some interesting items to discuss - photos/mags/parts/cars/stories would be an option and extension to this type of show? Anyways, good fun really enjoyed the relaxed nature of the show.
March of 1962 is a funny date to me. I was one month old 😂
Me too.
Lol😂 I wasn't around until july of 63😅😂😂
I was almost a year out of high school.
Steve needs to know he has a fan base. I thought he was a cousin. His & Matt's features are similar...
DISPELL HIS MYSTERY !!! lol 😅
Mike got his spring hair cut last video his hair was looking scruffy.
I to got my spring cut it got long from these cold day's here in Northen California bay area.
Thanks guys, entertaining!
Like the office! This is a nice piece. RWB ❤🎉
When you look at the old adverts, put the prices into one of the online inflation calculators and see what those prices would be nowadays, also compare them with what people were earning back in the day!
Great show
Mike is right. The SBC has become a 'belly button.' Everybody has got one. I have gotten over it now. Probably because I have gotten to be so old.
Gday from Australia guys.
Is a quick update on the 41 sedan that Matt gave to his brother possible?
Have a 41 business coupe myself so that 41 you had is a bit of a favourite.
Cheers.
Nothing happening. They plan to do a chassis swap on it
The visual part the video got blurry around time marker 54:01 ! But the audio was okay ! I still enjoyed it !
800 2nd Ave NY is a big building with a bunch of different businesses and the consulate for Ivory Coast
Long winded (I had to watch it over two days lol) but very enjoyable. Keep up the good work guys.
I need some rain gutters. Thinking 32 coupe . It's for my 29 coupe .if you have any let me know . Thanks you guys rock !!
You could just make some
@@garycamara9955 I ended up making them . 1/2 x1 rectangle tubing cut length wise to form a Chanel. Clamped to 8 inch pipe heat it will a torch then bent it around. I like it came out good 👍
Great Podcast!
I live close to Westminster and would like to go to the show.
Matt, have you been looking for a set of long screws for the red truck so you can take it too the closer swap meets?
I'm sorry the 'Track T' hasn't stirred much interest. I was fascinated by the straight-six flathead truck motor in that tiny car. Would have been a rocket ship. Great podcast, loved the Hot Rod magazine review.
Who actually uses a straight 6 in anything?
@@garycamara9955 I've had a straight six in a Ford Falcon, plus a couple of Nissan Skylines.
I'm looking for a old shop manual for a 1957 Willy's Jeep station wagon 4x4 !
I was just thinking about the Engine how far along it was coming along. I know it takes time to find and make parts and he's doing it on his spare time.
$100 in 62 is now $1,021
A lot of time the sbc was used cause of the location of the oil filter
It'd be really cool to have the sections labeled on the video timeline.
Far out Steve podcast that should be great !
Early on you mentioned a "swap meet" in Westminster MD? Are you attending or are you participating? I am no Hot-Rodder, but I do like cars (mainly European Sprots cars ..ie roadsters) and enjoy watching you work... especially the incredible metal work !!!!!'''''Kudos...masing something out of nothing!
I digress ..although I now live in West Germany. 20+ years., I still consider Westminster MD my hometown and have plenty of family nearby. Seems in my absence the hot rods are a big deal in Carroll County.?!?
Apropos.. "Cruisin" the real thing, we did on Friday nights circling the most popular Pizza joint at the shopping center.. Do let me know if "We " means participating ( a booth or stand) or merely attending .
We attend that swap meet on the first day each year just to walk around.
With all the intakes you have. Are you going to build Mikes a Hipo motor for his car?
Hypo, a Hipo is an animal
You know something simple like getting a key made I didn't even think about that might be a dying art with this digital age we live in.
I'm old school and still do things the Ol ways.
Heck I only know of one lock Smith shop around when 30 year's ago there was many.
I don't know of any swap meets in Kansas !
Do you guys ever make it to the Syracuse nationals at the Syracuse State Fairgrounds in July great event
Actually the east coast swaps are interesting to see on here but since they are 3,000 miles away I won't be there.
Do you guys have an extra 41 Ford Pickup tailgate (Ford V8)?
Thats your office in the upstairs isn't it
It would be cool if this video had timestamps with the different topics since I don't have time or patience to watch the entire video. This means that i'm not goint to watch at all, but if there were timestamps I would watch the parts that seems the most interesting.
I'm very curious on ITG's revenue breakdown. What portion of your incomes/salaries are YT, what % is parts sales and what % is merch?
I am from Nor Cal sooooo, those swap meets are meaningless to me. I like the cars and the builds.
Which video was it that the visitor showed and told you about his cameras?
For keys & maybe flywheel, too, if ya hain't, Strong's Garage, utube, Alberta, Canada....
could you put the drum cutter and surfacer in the warehouse
That’s the goal eventually
Wow, now I feel bad about asking about the 32 three window. Sorry....
No reason to feel bad.
Little book!
I’ve been watching your channel from the beginning and subscribed because I work on old cars myself. I’m in my late sixties but feel you can always learn new things or alternative ways of doing things. It’s now gotten to the point where I only watch some of the videos because of the content. Maybe some will remember 95 vids of the free T. You should consider a second channel. Maybe call it IronTrap Finds and put all the parts stuff there. You’ll probably double your subscribers as a lot of people will join the new one and make more money. Please turn this back into the channel you started. Thanks for letting an old man rant.
A quick change would be nice behind the Arden.
That would require a crossmember change.
Any plans for the Gilmore?
We’d like to hit the Relix Riot again! We enjoy the show!
don't chop that car
Is that a Barbie doll on your desk?
Is there a reason we haven’t seen your wife on lately?
Mike go buy an American made boot lol
You’re still dating you haven’t married her yet lol😂
Boring guys !
Go work in your garage instead
Why would ya bother with groceries when ya gots world's best cheese steak & pizza, ok NY....
Do you have any 1937 Desoto ribbed bumpers
None for sale but always looking to buy some
