    Hi guys! Thanks for tuning in... Short one today! I'm back at the 1960 Chevy Impala, and I'm trying to make a decent trunk lid using the back of the frame of the 4-door trunk lid to repair the inner structure of the coupe trunk lid... Definitely not a small job, but kind of a fun way to save some real rusty junk... Today we'll try to get the skin back on to the frame... Cheers!

      Scott: You say "you don't care", but I've been watching long enough to know you do. If you really didn't, you'd just slap it together and call it good. And that's not going to happen on your watch😁
      By the by, my calendar arrived today, and I can't wait till Christmas to open it - but I will try, lol! All the best to you, Honey Bunny, Ms. Francine, and the Agents from the Land of Lincoln.

    The Impala when you bought it from Tom was considered junk, a throwaway car suitable for parts.
    Now you’re blessing it with an amazing trip back to a new life.

    It's a process for sure.
    There used to be an old Hot Rod magazine that had good cartoon jokes.
    There was one where the young guy goes to the panel beaters to pick up his car.
    He gets the bull and it's One dollar for the panel beating, and Two Thousand, for "Knowing Where to Hit."

    I like the approach of getting it done in your lifetime. Not everything has to be perfect. Any car you do is going to last longer than its first time around if taken care of. Lessons from the Fury no doubt. I'm lovin the faster pace of CWM these days and though a Ford man, am really enjoying the Biscala and the Buick. cheers.
    Edit: And all the other cars too.

    @lawrenceharp6396 14 минут назад

    Really enjoying this splice! Cork is an excellent sound deadener, however wondering how much it could potentially swell up with any moisture, then retain it...The original stuff was some kind of toxic oily rubbery crap that wouldn't react to moisture. I imagine it too has the potential to expand, retract but with temperature instead of moisture. The sheet appeared to be pretty thin, so hopefully any swelling would be minimal, and appeared both sides were heavily coated in paint, so the possibility of rust would also be minimal, but I do hope you paint the shit out of it :)
