Why isn’t JF on the shows anymore?
jay f should go see cassidys new shop
Watched the video and remembered what having fun looks like!👊 Didn’t realise at the time how much effort went into making that happen. Fair dinkum, very nice work 👌
It's nice to have someone that knows what their doing, Kinda. 🤔🙄 The jeep seems like the worst choice for this kind of stunt stuff, Top heavy and thin wheel base, 4 WD probably helps though.
Where's the stunt double?😊
Really how do you explain stupid fun ! Just smile and laugh!
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Awesome boys . Great video.
What a fun day haha great job guys!
that looks better than a Vauxall Viva Kelly
You should have had the Upside Down Jeep sticker on... Looks like fun!

Never mind about that 56, what about that sweet 74 Honda Civic.
Oh you’ll be hearing about another civic soon !
I really like the Osoyoos Ram car winch. Is it something that is available on Amazon or something custom made at JF Kustoms? Good video enjoyed it.👍
Good video Love the content 😁
Call next time neighbor. My backhoe would have made that easy
Would have been a little easier without that flat tire 😅
You keep smiling like the cat that ate the canary, must have made a good profit lol
JF, I am 75 years old and I remember Von Dutch back in the 1960's. Hope you publish them. I would buy it.
I feel like this shouldn't be that hard especially with all the products available now. A couple of friends and I used to do this kind of work in the 90's (I did high end boat detailing, they worked in a body shop), we all had our own project cars, and we'd get together on a Friday or Saturday night and polish or fix something up over a few beers, as an opportunity to do some experimenting. It seems like with all the better products available this should be a piece of cake. Back then we basically had 3M wet/dry paper, anything over 2000 grit would be hard to get, 2500 eventually showed up, 3000 wasn't a thing, and engineered paper wasn't a thing either, you had 3M or Mequire's compound, polish and "sealant" (they each had their own names) then a few different choices of carnuba based waxes. Back then it was if the paint was really rough you'd start with 600wet, or usually 1000 or 1200 wet if the pain was fairly nice. 800 didn't exist, or at least the local shop didn't carry it. If it was regular production work you'd go to a rotary+wool pad+compound and then if it was a show car that would get driven then polish, sealant and some wax. Some soft paints would still have some very fine swirls in them that you could only see when you got within a few inches, but the sealant back then had some filler that would completely hide them. Mequire's Gold Class wax would have glycerine in it that would also fill them for a few days till it evaporated. There were old school tricks that involved corn starch or talc. For the more serious stuff after 1000 or 1200 we'd go to 1500 or 2000 and then go to compound and polish on a rotary. Clean pads, clean environment some nice wax after that and you'd have something as good as anything I've seen on a show car in the last 5 years. I feel like right now it would change a little depending on how bad what you're starting with is (yours was pretty nice from what you could see in the video) and how hard the clear is (you said yours was very soft) so I'd probably start with 1000-1500 (800 if it's hard or really pealed, 600 if there is damage to fix). 2000, 3000, I wonder if the 5000 that they have now would speed up the polishing further, but I've used the 3000 polishing headlights and that's pretty fine. From there I'd probably use one of the newer cutting compounds that is variable based on the pad used. So that's between 3 and 6 steps used + wax.
Yes back in the 90’s we didn’t struggle either The new products are horrible
Nice work, but I can’t understand why you would put hundreds of thousands of dollars in a car that you would be scared to drive, Kingdig has produced some amazing looking cars, but you can’t drive them everyday , my opinion only 🇦🇺
Hi JF, In order to do Von Dutch justice, you have the makings (the images) for a book on this piece of automotive history. Speaking to a publisher would be in your financial interest. Roland
Hi JF, Please see my previous comment. The photos were reproduced digitally. If so, they're on someones hard drive inside the machine. They won't be accessed by the people that did the work, but they can be reproduced by a technician that knows how to access the hard drive. I would go as far as to have a confidentiality agreement drafted up by a local law firm. Have the shop where the photos were recreated sign it. Find out which company made the equipment used, and have them sign it in order to retain your property. Hope you had a lovely wedding. Roland
Hi JF, I onced worked in a print shop. When digital copiers became the standard in the industry, we had to remember to include in the lease agreements that we would own the hard drives and remove them before the machine was sent away to be disposed of. I am quite sure that those photos are still on the hard drive of the machines used to make your digital prints. You should look into that... Take care and thanks for sharing. Roland
The first pics of the flame job on the 57 Ford was so sick
I’m the person who sold these photos to Gary and JF. These negatives were in my father’s archives since the 1960s. It was more work (than I can convey here in words) to scan and print those images, and keep them off the internet until they landed in your hands. Those two plastic bins each had one set of prints. The thumb drives have digital files of all the scans. Everything you see there was professionally archived and preserved, making sure that nobody copied or took photos of those images and shared them on social media. The print that has the red pinstriping was done by Von Hot Rod when I showed him the prints at a car show in California. His decal is on one of the boxes. I’m adding this because I heard you question why one of them was pinstriped. Thanks for sharing your video. It was fun to watch. Especially the part where you show the film negatives. Haha
Can’t thank you enough ❤️ these are great !!!
Please, do something about the wheel gap.
Btw use a backing pad
Crazy that at the level you charge and the tools you have, you have no idea what your doing at this stage ... denim pad will be your best friend
Remember we film to assist others doing paint jobs .. we know what we’re doing - thanks 😊
OMG, that's so amazing! Thanks for sharing this history with us all. Great video
Thanks for sharing didn’t quite understand the playboy connection
One of the cars Von Dutch painted in the photos has a playboy bunny on it and was believed to be owned by Marylin Monroe
I learned something today ❤
That was extremely interesting and entertaining; thank you all for sharing!
Howard was an artist , machinist, knife maker , gun maker, did work for McQueen among others. He was a complicated man who by all accounts did not suffer fools gladly.
I wish you could do a slideshow of those pictures so we could see them better thanks for sharing enjoyed
Was Steve Jones related to Ted or Ron Jones??
