Beautiful job on the Dodge , sleek lines , cool paint , and dog dish hubcaps make it a real winner. You are certainly one fine crafter of automobiles , congratulations , Stuart in Ontario..............
Walter P Chrysler wouldn't sell a car a man 'couldn't wear his hat in'.. That's why my 51 Dodge looks like a birdcage. After he left (or passed away) the cars got a LOT lower..
K.T. Keller, the president of Chrysler at the time, favored high roof lines so that your hat wouldn't be knocked off when you were getting in and out of the car.
Wives don’t cross their arms like that unless they are pissed about something we’ve done or not done ha ha. Fascinating build. The drone work is superb. Way to go!
l was bored it's snowing outside so l turned on TH-cam and stumbled on this I'm an old gear head from the 60s did some 49 Fords and Mercury's had a 51 Ford with a Caddy V8 engine, never bought many parts if something was needed l had friends that worked in junkyards or find an abandoned car in the woods, you did a great job you had me for 1:10 and the music was also great, l will be subscribing as soon as l stop typing, keep up the good work your not just a parts changer like on regular TV your the real thing. :)
In a time where EVERYBODY goes for the "patina" craze, I'm still glad you painted this car and these colors... Excellant job! A favorite build of mine!!!
Your workmanship is amazing. The Ez that you seem to chop these cars up is truly an art & so cool to be part of via your videos. Would love to see you chop the roof & chop the body a few inches on one of your builds I've always wanted to see that done in a way that's understandable. Other people have done it obs but none of them show their working & mistakes just a thought either way keep them videos coming look forward to watching all you do. Cheers
Brent all I can say is that you are definitely a great fabricator from the beginning to the end. She looks awesome. Thanks for sharing your content. Enjoyed watch this one today.
After watching this vid...... You are without a dought a bad ass.... Your vision is awesome, and it didn't come over night..... The thing that's unbelievable is you do it with no modern tools..... Your on different level......
This. This is what your videos need. The mechanicals? They are fun but predictable. But this chop. That's pure art my friend and you are an artisan. There are dozens of channels out there doing first starts and engine swaps. You keep the transformations coming. It's pure magic and you make it look so easy. I wait and watch for the next fabrication video. You are an artisan.
This looks Identical to my 50 Plymouth Special Deluxe !!! I sat mesmerized for the full vid ...dreaming of a wicked chop for my 50 !!! Keep em coming ! Thanks
What a treat for a Saturday night. Got home from a Sled ride, cracked a Beer, and popped TH-cam open only to see this gem in my feed. Thanks man, your skills blow me away. Cheers
You deserve a special thanks and a nod for producing this video. Not many content providers out there are taking the time or effort to feature their builds in a start-to-finish video. One more reason why this channel deserves more credit and exposure in 2021. Cheers! Today 1/23/21 it has 37.9k subs.
I really like your channel, you build incredible customizations. You are truly an artist of your craft. Thanks for letting us in to watch you perform your magic. Awesomeness.
That top Chop transformed the car into a long and low cruiser, amazing effort Damn you have have a good eye for that. I owned a 47 Chevy Coupe would have loved to chop that and get the Olds V8 fixed. I build the engine but it blew and my Dad was so mad he made me stop cars. I caught up later after i left home. Thanks for posting. I will search your archives for any old coupes. Great Result, Dennis
You probably don’t look at comments on old videos like this one but I have to say that car, just wow!!! You really took it from the ugly duckling and made it into a real stunner!!! That top chop was incredibly educational to watch!!!
I think I'v watched this ten times or more while in my garage. Never start to finish but I'v seen it all and put it on when some of my friends come over, also when the sports neighbors come over so they go home!!!
Hi there Brent,,,,, this 51 Dodge Crusader ,,,, turned out just one great project,,,, "Hallfass Kustoms" is without a shadow of a doubt the most entertaining video show on TH-cam,,,, you get on with the mechanics of the show,, no long chat,, you narrate only the necessities the ins n outs are important to you "yeah" ,,, oh yes Pablo what a character the expression on his face when he sits on that back seatlike a little ole man" says a million stories " One,,Man and his Dog" wonderful Thanks Brent,,,,, your choice of music is so apt see next time buddy,,,,Edwin J Thompson Sierra Vista Arizona
This is the build that got me hooked on your channel as well. I'm here to stay. What you do were my retirement plans but robbed from me in 1999 with being told I have Multiple sclerosis and now confined to a wheelchair 24/7/365. I even built a 1000 sq. ft. shop in 1986 to be ready to now to only work on mowers, push & lawn tractors snd small engines, and go-karts. I have a small You-Tube channel.
It went from looking like a Cab, to a sedan. The 2 tone color thing looks period. Like an everyday family car with a kool vibe. You did a real nice job.
Suckiest part of doing this type of work is perfectionism.. I never was good at being a perfectionist.. takes all the fun out of a project. This type you do takes most of the stress of perfection out of being creative.. I like it.
Absolutely love your work mate. Just wish I was living in your country and in your state so I can come and learn from you. Anyway keep doing what you do. Blessings
My brother took a 1949 Ford Convertible I owned while I was away in the Army and he cut that car all apart and made a miniature of it when T Bird was first starting. He chopped Lowered , Channeled, and man when I came back home and looked for my Convertible I was in shock from what he had done with my car, It was res with the lower part from the front of the front fender well over and back with that Custom Trim many used on those cars was white. Fender skirts and lowered to about three or four inch's off the ground with glass packs and a Vauxhall grill. The top was white with small round hole class for back seat windows and the Hollywood rear wrap around panels for the rear window. I would love to have a car like that today. I raced it on the Salt Flats with a big Flat Head Mercury Interceptor Highway Patrol engine in it and it rotted out in no time.
You're a regular Rembrandt!! Put your thumb up to eye level, give it a once over, then squint the other eye and cut away!! Love it, keep em coming, it's most relaxing and puts a smile on my ugly face lol
Nice work on Sweet Green. I'm a big fan of so much of what you do. This is one of my favorites. I like the way you just walk in...... start kickin' down doors and get it done. Thanks for letting us watch this amazing process..
I can understand customizing the interior as the original was pretty shot. And if the roof were damaged or rusted, I could understand chopping the roof, but why chop the roof of what seems to be a perfectly good restorable body?
I watched this build from start to finish and loved watching the progress when it was done a ways back! The finished dodge was beautiful and one I'd sure love to own!! Great work Brent!
i know Im asking randomly but does anybody know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I somehow lost my password. I would love any assistance you can give me.
@Bennett Angelo Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Appreciated the videos on cutting and forming the vent windows. I have a 54 Pontiac Star Chief that was chopped before I purchased and need to do the vents. Thank you!
That is one sweet ride ! I remember my Grandfather having one just like that and he would be amazed seeing what you did to a car like that ! Awesome job !!
I really like the fact that you didn't do a radical chop and kelp the rest as original as possible. It has the look of one that would be a daily driver and to me that's what it's all about. Thanks
11/12/2021 New to this channel was suggested by another channel You are now my favorite channel out of 50+ car channels 👍👍😀 fantastic work and great music!!!
Wow by chopping that top you made it look like you stretched the car , it looks like a old movie about to start when you're driving down that dirt road, I love and watch all your videos this is the 2nd or 3rd time I watched this one I love your channel keep up the great work wears the (General International 200) I wish I owned that truck it is awesome wow so awesome but God bless you and your family 💯💪🏼👍🏻👍🏻🙏🙏✌
This car is absolutely beautiful. I helped do a 39 Ford with the humpback, and ragtop, that was chopped and suicide doors installed, Frenched license plate and taillights. It was beautiful for a ratrod when we were done with it, but the owner installed the drivetrain himself later. We got it ready to be a roller.
Wow that transformation is great. Such a nicer appearance. You are very talented and I’m catching up on all your great videos. Cheers from Schuylklll County PA
I recently found your channel and instantly became a follower.. Nice work sir. Take this car and put SRT powertrain in it... you have yourself a car that someone will pay big money for.
Started watching ur truck build love ur style and ur talent is undeniable.This one was awesome as well I'll be watching as long as u r filming. Thanks for sharing ur talents.
Very good & nice and I like how turn out too ! My one old neighbor 2 brothers did one up in Black color and put 426 Dodge Road Runner motor plus 2 4barrel carbs together, 727 4 speed Automatic transmission plus shifter on floor, RPM , Water , Voltage, Oil pressure, not sure axle ratio was but I now rewire to 12 Voltage Negative grounded with Power brakes and Steering even big 1977 Lincoln Town Car tank was fast car! Brothers did for Auto Mechanics classes in 4 years of High School and past too! Yes one brother stayed in Auto Mechanic and other got in building houses in Construction both still keeping busy lots!
HELPFUL HINT: Instead of using a gas torch on the glass, you can cut through the plastic film with a 6' piece of measuring tape, It works really well, Love your work by the way.
I had misgivings about the chop. WOW! Did it come out good and looks great. I like the colour. Thanks for this vid. Total enjoyment to watch you go thru the paces. Yeah you got to love it.. HA!
Beautiful job on the Dodge , sleek lines , cool paint , and dog dish hubcaps make it a real winner. You are certainly one fine crafter of automobiles , congratulations , Stuart in Ontario..............
Love the chop and the colour.
He makes it look so easy to do…
✌️😎👍🇳🇿
You Vandals; chopping these classic old steeds !
We canapé your skills...but the kitchen of this chef is unbeatable..! Saute broil fry bake seasons full of savory goodies... mmmmmgood
This guy is a bonafide craft man
Looks so much better wit the lower roof line. Can’t believe the original designers couldn’t see that.

Excellant job! A favorite build of mine!!!
Seems like patina is just an easy out..
The roof line looks so much better than the original and the rear glass from the coupe worked out much better!! I like it
If this guy can't work metal,No one can. This show is awesome

One of the best channels on TH-cam!!!! Thanks Brent!!!!

Dude! You’re insane to take on this project. But you’re also a Michelangelo! Kudos!!
Impressive work man! I have a 50 Plymouth business coupe.

Massive improvement! You took a frumpy old ladies car to something that a person can be proud of. Thanks from Virginia, usa.
He said “butt weld “ Beavis ! 😆 Great channel. Love ya mods . Nice chop ! Skilful, imaginative and extremely cool. Looks ace !💖 from 🇬🇧
Very best at what you do. #1 on TH-cam in my opinion. 👍🏾🏁
This is the build that got me hooked on your channel. Lots of good education on this one. Thanks for sharing your talents with us.
Indeed. We are currently watching the summer rig. The General. Can't wait to see next winters car.
Man I watched the video and did you ever do a lot of welding it looks really decent you stitched that thing like a surgeon move over gene!
Well you didn't halfass this buggy like the color any expectations of head room in the rear lol!

Your imagination as well as your ability to bring it to life are unreal.
I couldn't stop watching. That looked so easy! I'd panic after the first cut. Nice work and kool car.
That was so a cool build. I know I'm late to the party but you really did make that more sleek. Nice work all the way around! Love it!
You probably don’t look at comments on old videos like this one but I have to say that car, just wow!!! You really took it from the ugly duckling and made it into a real stunner!!! That top chop was incredibly educational to watch!!!

I liked the way you’re restoring old cars
Hi there Brent,,,,, this 51 Dodge Crusader ,,,,
turned out just one great project,,,,
"Hallfass Kustoms" is without a shadow of a doubt
the most entertaining video show on TH-cam,,,,
you get on with the mechanics of the show,, no long chat,,
you narrate only the necessities the ins n outs are important to you "yeah" ,,, oh yes Pablo what a character the expression on his face when he sits on that back seatlike a little ole man" says a million stories " One,,Man and his Dog" wonderful
Thanks Brent,,,,, your choice of music is so apt
see next time buddy,,,,Edwin J Thompson

When the car was finished, it almost looked like an early Hudson Hornet with a different front and back. Very cool.
At first glance kinda looked like a Merc .
It went from looking like a Cab, to a sedan. The 2 tone color thing looks period.
Like an everyday family car with a kool vibe. You did a real nice job.

What a beautiful restoration. I once had a 52 Dodge and have a fond spot in my heart for these cars. Love your background music and videos.
Absolutely love your work mate. Just wish I was living in your country and in your state so I can come and learn from you. Anyway keep doing what you do. Blessings
Best car renovation channel on TH-cam, Thanks for sharing your logical wonderful talent.
Watching the truck build. Now this one u r 1 talented guy.as long as u make them I am watching. Thanks u !!
I was admiring your welding skill until I watched your mastery of cutting tempered glass. I was pretty sure it couldn’t be done!
The glass work looks real put together
That was a lot of work but you make it look so easy. Viewing from Australia. What a cool car now.
I feel like a kid early morning watching tv .. My favorite channel 😎😎🕵🕵
Thanks for posting this build, I followed most of this originaly when first aired.
Man of many talents.
My brother took a 1949 Ford Convertible I owned while I was away in the Army and he cut that car all apart and made a miniature of it when T Bird was first starting.

Man, you have talent!
I love what you're doing to these antique cars but I also love the music you're embedding too during the renovations too!
I liked the the motor swap from the jag to the chevy today . I looked for more video to be shown !
Excellent Job, Brent, you just never seem to disappoint don't you, well done on this chop! it looks so much better. Love it.
You're a regular Rembrandt!! Put your thumb up to eye level, give it a once over, then squint the other eye and cut away!! Love it, keep em coming, it's most relaxing and puts a smile on my ugly face lol

I think that original shape of that car was better.

What an Awesome Artist Fabricator, The Gambler: knowing what to throw away, and knowing what to keep Nice Nice Nice!
Appreciated the videos on cutting and forming the vent windows. I have a 54 Pontiac Star Chief that was chopped before I purchased and need to do the vents. Thank you!
I could sure use a few minor parts off your parts car... rear window trim and side spears for my Cranbrook .
Great transformation, and now a one off, like the way you took us through the chop and paint job. Really interesting, thanks a lot👍
That is one sweet ride ! I remember my Grandfather having one just like that and he would be amazed seeing what you did to a car like that ! Awesome job !!
The best winter car ever! Saw some it before but watched again for more detail. Excellent vid!
I really like the fact that you didn't do a radical chop and kelp the rest as original as possible. It has the look of one that would be a daily driver and to me that's what it's all about. Thanks
i usually dont like a chop job ,,but i do now it makes the old dodge better looking
You make a four door look very nice. Talent on display.
I just can't believe this is the same car . Your an Artist Brent Ty and Esther for the Videos Hi Pablo

Boston Black music from the early fifties cool.
Not usually a fan of any chop but this thing just has it going on bud!
You just like it cuz it's all Dodge haha if i had motor swaped it, it would have had an LS in it haha
@@HalfassKustoms I’m ok with that! It’s on the road that’s what matters to me bud!!
Wish I had your skill and patience! Well done!
Man I really love the early 50s and older cars.
