Hot DAMN! I never thought I'd be so invested in watching glass being cut. Great stuff.
This guy is an Artiste, Engineer, mechanic, and a visionary all rolled up in one bloke. You know when he is having a win, he does his little jive dance. 10 out of ten from an ordinary guy
🕺
He,s an amazing dude
I don’t think this dude outsources anything.homie does everything.not many people like him are around,he even paints better than most painters 😂.a true builder
I am surprised they could just hold the straight edge by hand when the scribed the glass. Seems like it could slide on the glass unless it had a sticky rule. This only works on new glass. I have seen a torch flame used to melt the plastic layer.👍
Bello, take a look at a 'hand seamer' - a tool used in sheet metal work
Like the pliers but it will hold 4" of the glass
Such an honor to get to watch this guy and his helper create their magic. In my opinion the premier car builder on RUclips. If he don't know it, he learns it. Always appreciate the videos from you fellows.👍
Can't understand how some of these complete and total hacks can have upwards of a million followers and this old school master have forty seven thousand and change.
You KNOW that's right.
When cutting patterns with laminated glass when you score the first cut go ahead and from the bottom before you flip the glass and tap along the score line with the ball end of your cutter to make it follow the cut. Then flip the glass make your second cut and do the same thing it keeps from cracking like it was doing. To cut the plastic after both cuts put some denatured alcohol along the cut and light it for about 10 or 15 seconds and use a razor blade to cut the plastic it makes a much smoother cut with a lot less clean up afterwards. I've been cutting glass for over 30yrs years now and can tell you how to cut just about anything you want
I’ve watched every single most popular car builder on this planet work. Mike is the ONLY builder I’ve seen that does it all. Fabrication, upholstery, mechanics, body, paint, suspension, electrical, custom design, detailing, glass, exhaust, he’s the only builder I’ve seen to where I can easily say their is nothing he can’t do. He is my main influence in becoming a car builder for obvious reasons. Hands down the best content online for any gearhead. He definitely deserves tons more content on a waaaay more frequent basis. As it’s plain to see, no other builder comes close. Barris, Winfield, Rousell, Hines, Foose, Coddington, Hiltz, Casper, Alexander, Ayala… could never touch this man. And that’s undisputed fact. Serious respect and Admiration goes out to Bello’s Kustoms. 💯💯💯
Maybe he needs to put 'Bad' in front of his name to attract the dummies
@user-dc8gu7qc9g  That guy is a train wreck. But I have to say it's because of some chemical imbalances and that makes him like a drugged out adah kid. He does has some talent to half-assed stuff and some imagination but it doesn't always make the grade.
Mike is def SUPER talented. I'll hold out on "all" until I see his pinstriping, engine building, and upholstery work. All the other names you mentioned built cars but through a business and that business is what they were good at as well. You see its just Mike and Catapilla and so he really has more in common with the average weekend builder and a buddy as like us he does it all himself---- its just he actually has TALENT whereas most folks don't but can't afford to pay others. You can tell he loves doing it or he would hire people and go sit in an office and get more business or push merchandise, or something other than put his hands on some fat fendered rod. I mean, who else has "1936 Ford" tattooed across both hands, right?👍
I was thinking the same thing.
I agree
Breakfast with Bello! Tacos and choped tops, dale shine!
Great to see the two big dogs working together again, respect. Great video, great lesson. Mike your dancing is cool. Steve, well done.
Thank you
Big Steve
Nice work fellas... I'll be back next time 🌹
If you’re not learning everyday you’re not pushing yourself. If you’re not pushing yourself you’re limiting yourself and your talent. Push yourself in the things that make you uncomfortable. Those who are truly gifted in any trade always push themselves in learning , challenging themselves and overcoming. Bellos Kustoms is a great example of always pushing themselves to accomplish the uncomfortable 👏.
The ‘35 has come a long way, what an incredible transformation 👍
Bad ass one stop shop!!!!!!!!!! 😎😎
Really fine art in each detail
Mike's little pieces of measuring tape can do anything!
I have adopted the cut off tape measure and can't believe how much simpler it is around the workbench
@@boblister665 I have one to after seeing Mike's I had a broken tape and cut it at the "6 and it is very useful having it at the bench
Thanks for sharing. It wouldnt surprise me if Mike started to sew up the interior as well, he can do it all. Cheers, Mike, Big Steve and Carapila.
You bring up a good point I really winder just what the inside is gonna look like?!
Awe yeah....... The dynamic duo back in action, Straight LocoChon and El Senor Carapilla busting a move! Waiting for your virtual reality channel to come out soon..... 😂👊👍
wow mike there seems to be no end to your talent ....your the man .......sweet job
That car just looks SO SPECIAL.
Nice work. Now you guys cut glass, too. You can't buy experience, you need to live it, but sometimes you can pay for it, and then it's yours. Thanks for the great videos.
Those headlights remind me of Gary The Snail on Spongebob .. Beautiful car , Chingon Cacheton ! Ese Carapila !
The car is off the hook you killed it catapilla dope as well great job homeboy.
The man has no limits
Wow Mike you’ve done the owner proud. You fellows jell so well take care. Be lucky. Cheers Tim.
You can change the old saying Jack of all trades and Master of ALL! I love when you post a new video.
When you score the glass you should immediately snap it,the process of scoring the glass causes the molecules of the glass to go into motion. Once the molecules stop moving it makes it more difficult to snap,and will cause a run out.
Another beautiful creation by a Master❤
Hey Mike,
Got my order in last week with two long sleeves and a Hoddie. Thank you, Bro, the quality of your clothing matches your wrk. 2nd to none BrothA 👊❤️. Anybody out there thinking of ordering some merch from Mike. Do it! You will not be disappointed. Thank you again, Mike. Love all that you do, man. Much Love and Respect 👊🙏
100% agree! My wife ordered me a shirt, shipped to Canada. The quality is first rate. Even has Bellos printed inside the back of the neck instead of a label. Beautifully wrapped and came with stickers. My wife says Mike's wife is a joy to E-mail with. What great people!
Thank you Carnal for sharing your experience with us Gracias.😎
Beautiful job can't wait to see it in Santa maria
Dude The glass-work is crazy!!! First time I’ve seen it done.
Nothing But Perfection Bellos!!!100%
The glass job amazing. One small step for man one huge step for man kind. Like I said prior more skills then a rocket scientist. Lokochon style. From the 719 PUEBLO COLORADO. THE BOX STATE YEYE.
What an amazing transformation. Definitely one we would all enjoy seeing it completed. Once the interior is done much of the custom metal artwork is hidden. Thankfully the owner has these videos to enjoy and be proud of his Bellos Kustoms piece of art.
This Chevy went from Ugly Duckling to Bad Swan!! Beautiful tasteful lines and incredible workman ship on that chop. He didn’t cut and stretch or gap, he formed whole new curved panels, coach work style!!!!! I can’t say enough!!!! His waiting list must be years long!!!!!!!!!!
Joe, always leading that extra hand , helping out Mike getting things done.
I’m not at all surprised he does the glasswork to his builds I often wondered how it’s done Bello always Continues to impress and amaze me… Thank You for another Great Sunday Morning insight in your shop🤘🏻
What beautiful job on the custom glass. This ride is getting sexyer everyday bro. Next seats and carpet and this owner will have a smile 10 miles wide. Dang he must be itching to get his wheels home.
Someone give this man an award 🥇🏆
G money
Lokochon style
You use a Tape measure in ways I have never seen! Just sitting here shaking my head! I keep watching and learning!
Your skill level is off the charts. Awesome job Mike!
That car came out meeeaaan!!!!👍 my personal opinion is the color doesn't seem like a good choice but I'm sure my mind would change once sunlight hit it.👍👏👏
Best way to cut glass is with a haynas nipple in the winter 🤣 Chingon Cacheton ! QVo Pinche Carapila !
When Mike starts singing opera to Carapilla you know things are going Bellos quality.
Lol what min is that?
I always enjoy watching you do your stuff. What I like the most is you're a master at your craft.
The was nothing I thought that Mike couldn't improve on.
But I was wrong. He elevated the production of the videos, by getting the exact person for the job, that make it more pleasing to watch. EVERY second is captivating!
Thanks for having the grace to share your craft. I do enjoy it.
Great job doing glass cutting. Gerry my hubby worked at a glass manufacturer. He said instead of using blade to cut a stuck piece.of plastic next time..try isopropyl alcohol on the cut then set on fire with torch. The heat will melt plastic and glass will snap.off. hint hint..keep dancing ❤❤❤
The final beauty shot of the car was sweet! It looks amazing!
Mike you got down,I couldn't hold a fork after that work lol
Beautiful Mike. I thought that car needed a chop from the 1st time I saw it. It turned out even smoother than I imagined. Big Steve, videography and editing is awesome.
😎👍thank you
Big Steve
I want to thank who ever came up with the idea of putting this man on camera!!!
This was my number one question when I saw yall chopping the top! So glad yall showed this.
Good work with the glass Mike. There hasn't been a car you built that I haven't like. I hope someday I can get you to build me one.
WOW 👌 👏 😍 👍 OUTSTANDING CRAFTSMANSHIP......AWESOME JOB MIKE 👏
Yo Mike Vato Loco this is coming from an old man that his father cut glass you did very good if that old man would that high dollar sander he would have kick ass he made an A framed belt sander so he could do larger work But Vato you did Good keep up the great Info. Tricks of the Trade The Crazy Old Man In The Yucatan 😎
Beautiful , your Da Vinci of metal !!!
Mike that thing is awesome...another great example of skill..patience...and attention to detail. Ive never seen you so lazer focused as when you were cuttin that glass. Keep it up big dawg!
Steve you keep getting razor sharp with these videos bro! From the technical breakdowns to.keep us layman in the loop to the artistic mastery of catching the shop lights cascading down the contours of the new shape of the car in the outro...Mike is lucky to have you on the squad!
Gosh now we just have to see what the inside will look like...whatever you do AL dont just let any chump with a sewing needle take over!😅
Stay on the gas fellas and never let up!
Great respect for your workmanship.
That is one bad ass car. I cannot image that someone can still gather up all those decent parts. And then find someone like you to make all them decent parts into amazing parts and to go onto a car they were not designed for and become one awesome ass car. That is a beautiful piece of art. Thank you for taking the time to show us your talent. I have to. Have to watch each week to see if I can learn anything. I don’t have the machines you have but I can still learn and thank you for that.
The admiration is the end result of beautiful artwork with sheet metal and glass. Craftsmanship and technique at it's finest = creativity. I love it all. Thanks for the insight into Bello's Kustoms!
Cutting that glass kept me on the edge of my seat, absolutely great👋👋👋👋👋
Hey…cutting that glass takes delicate time and patience. So impressed with what it takes! Well-rounded no doubt! Super f%*king clean, sleek work you did on this beautiful car 😎
WOW! I love the adaptation of parts of tape measures made into cutting blades for the laminate between the sheets of glass. You do it ALL!
Mike can do anything involving a vehicle! Happy for a new video.
Beautiful Little Chevrolet!!
I watched a glass guy cut a windshield for me years ago, after scoring and cracking he poured lighter fluid on the cut lit it on fire for about 15 seconds to soften the plastic then pulled it away for and easy cut with a single edge blade.
On top of sheer talent Mike has the willpower necessary to try anything. Be nice if Australian builders were as willing to share.
I've done enough of this kind of work to know, it ain't as easy as this man makes it look.
All respect to you. ...stay locochon..
Greetings from Pembroke Dock Wales. Having to watch on my phone as the Boss is watching “The Masters” golf but! The upside is I can watch it on the TV later 🛠️
Sunday the 21/4/24 taking another look at last Sundays video! I’m in ore at Mikes abilities to turn his hands at anything & with his Trusted Sidekick Carapilla helping there seems nothing he can’t do 🛠️😎
JESUS- Mike, now that the glass is cut, I can unclench my ass. awesome work, you are the Master of your craft! I love your shows so much I would watch you make a lunch box! keep the faith Brother. a fan for life. Mike B.
Really like the music ending. Million thanks. St.Paul,Minnesota.
Gorgeous car. Outstanding craftsmanship.
Once again, good job guys! I enjoy watching these classic works of art come together.
PURE GANGSTER!!!! GREAT JOB MIKE!!
Dang I know Mike does it all, but glass too??!!
Over the top, beautiful.
Another magnificent custom!
Wow, I was wondering about the glass in the cars you chop, it’s like you guys knew what I was wondering about!! Nice job Mike!
An amazing Maestro, every video is like watching a MasterClass and true artist!
I really enjoy watching Mike Work. He inspires me and gives me confidence to trying to do it myself.
Love watching a great artist work . The end result is priceless . Learning heaps cheer bro
The best there is , and Mike does it all . No pretending , no tool commercials , no paid sponsors and no Bondo covering up shit work...just for money . Talent , experience and love for custom cars does the job
Always looking forward to BELLOS,GREAT STUFF!!
I just ordered a t-shirt from his website. very entertaining and one of the most talented Builders I've seen...
You are one smart guy Mike. You do awesome work. Your skill level is amazing.
You are a craftsman Mike 👨🏻🎨
Amazing…is there no end to your talents? So interesting, thank you for sharing. Have to admire your talent and patience. Car looks awesome. Video looks great too.
Another little tip Mike, when putting glass in a car. String the rubbers makes it easy to pull the rubber over the lip of metal.😊
Master at his craft, I was cringing when you were cutting the glass Mike. That is the most important part in a chop the glass and to get it installed.
Learn something new. But accully seeing if I can do it is a whole different story book. Glass takes a whole lotta patients taking your time. New glass cutter sharp one, diesel fuel, wd-40, pliers, whole lotta patient's!
Mike, Dude I held my breath many times during this episode. Every piece just looks so good. Catapilla is the quiet assitant, props to him! Steve's captures of the essence of Kustom Kulture is so spot on.
Vato Loco!
😎👍
Big Steve
I sure would be wearing a respirator when sanding that glass. that dust cant be good for the lungs.
Awesome job, Mike.
Always worth watching
You know you're a real artist when you create everything from metal work to paint and class. Been slowly getting through all the vids since finding the channel. Awesome work.
Another great video Thanks 👏👏👏👏👏
I’m blown away you were able to make that radius in one piece. Nice job
Nice job on the glass Mike, good that you can do it all in house like that, you got awesome skills man! It’s good to use a respirator when sanding glass like that, that glass dust is pretty nasty on the lungs bro. Have a great weekend Mike and to Catapilla too!
Damn dude you really build the cars by yourself man. So much respect. ARTIST from the highest level
Great video! I often wonder how many of these cars will be around 100 years or so from now. All I know is that I won't be around LoL. New cars are nice, but most have no soul.
You can buy a metal handle for your glass cutter for a couple of dollars that will make it a lot easier to hold it. You also need some glass cutting pliers that have a curved top and bottom to help you 'break' the scoring line. Go to a stained glass shop and they can supply what you need to make your job a lot easier. A wet wheel grinder would be useful as well. As noted, visit a stained glass shop and you'll lean a lot in a few minutes.
Sweet, ready to roll!! Thanks for sharing!
What still kills me is how you can get that fucking roofline so perfect just by looking at it and hammering out some metal. Damn. Anyhow, thanks for the tutorial on safety glass... all this time I thought it was black magic. Now I know I can do that shit easy! For gluing the bottom channel to those side windows, Google "glass setting tape". I used that stuff on my '25 Franklin side windows and hinged windshield and it works good. when I fucked up on one of the windows, it comes apart pretty easy with no cleanup required to re-set. Cheers, Jim
Great glass cutting👍👍👍
Turned out beautiful, pat on the back Mike 👍
Thanks for showing us how it’s done!
Thank you for this video Hommie Mike,my friend has a 39 chevy snd we want to put a new window in the passenger rear door ,now i have the courge to do it ,keep up the cool master workmanship from CholeTown ,Soledad Ca,
