[@MCW1955]

Just love it when a new Roadking comes out, but I’m running out of Dramamine!!😅

[@TheShadeTreeFixitMan]

Nice work, EJ. It will be better than new when you are done for sure.

Thank you George!! Hope you and the family have a great year!!☻

RK- we’ve all been there when “good enough “ just isn’t good enough!!

[@805ROADKING]

How true!! Even after I finished all the body work, glazing and sanding I went back and redid a small section I didn't like!! I didn't film that part!!☻

[@357magdad]

Thank you Bruce!!☻

[@ihus9950]

@805ROADKING
You bet, Happy New Year Everett 👍🏻

[@macdonmar]

King is back!!!

[@mr1pearl]

A little bit of hammer work on this one so far looking good sir 👍

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks Bill!! This hood was fun, had a lil' bit of everything!!☻

[@MatthewBerginGarage]

That weld for the tank looks like a continuous electrical weld done with roller instead of a spot. The seams when we weld the steel coils together on the plating lines at work look similar and that weld is done with copper rollers and a bunch of current. Watch it because if it is the steel right on the weld will be much harder. 🙋‍♂😊

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks for the info Matt!! Never came across anything like that before!! All I know is it warp the hell outta that hood!!☻

[@MatthewBerginGarage]

@@805ROADKING Probably took a good chunk of current to guarantee a fuel tight seal, would have heated the seam up quite a lot.

[@kcraig51]

"But...uh...when ya start lookin' at it." Yeah, that's when things usually start falling apart. LOL

[@805ROADKING]

I think that's why I don't look that close at them at first or I would never take on the job!!☻

[@twocvbloke]

If you hammer it in the right places, you could get some tunes out of it like a steel drum... :P

[@805ROADKING]

Yeah Buddy!! Lil' Dirtbike could play that Hood!!☻

[@BAGOTCORNER]

You start talking about molecules and I was looking for my dictionary!

[@805ROADKING]

I was trying to sound like 95% of the other Tubers that don't know what the hell they're taking about!!☻

[@chainsawtony6857]

Just paint it. Leave the dents its all parts of its life..

[@timothynewkirk2654]

Fantastic body work RoadKing ! BTW: Where do I buy Fosforic Acid? I Need to apply to my 49' International Pickup "fire wall." To get the rust out of the pitted surface, B4 body puddy. Oh, and Happy 2025 ! ...Newk from Kentucky

[@805ROADKING]

Thanks Newk!! Happy New Year Bud!! You can get Phosphoric Acid from Home Depot or Lowes!! www.lowes.com/pd/Klean-Strip-Concrete-and-Metal-Prep-1-GAL/1001456348

[@Iowa599]

Don't paint it too nice, that will make it look like it isn't an antique tractor. Perhaps a modern reproduction, probly from China.
