ATTENTION: I explain in the video why I did not just bolt the other hood on.

The truest sign of a craftsman is making complex things look easy. Great job.
Thanks David!
One thing I learned years ago, and it really messes up your supervisors, is three things. Accept responsibility for your mistakes, describe what you learned from your mistake, and lastly how you will move forward with your practice. Really messes up your supervisors because they are accustomed to people lying and/or blaming other people. Completely disarms the supervisor because they usually show up with both guns loaded and suddenly they don't know how to respond.
Haha That's great advice!
Came for the humour stayed for the repair!👩🏭
Hi Kelly! Thanks for stopping by!
Please do a part 2. I have some door bottoms that look exactly like that.
Currently working on part 2 now!
These are some of the best looking hoods, IMO, but man they rust and are harder to repair than uglier ones.
Accountability, solid work.
Yeah I agree, Gm didn't build these hoods to last!
The daring use of marimba(xylaphone) music showed the true skill involved in tackling this intricate repair!
Indeed! We are always trying to push the envelope with bold and controversial music! Haha
Definitely like to see part 2 for the hood
Coming soon!
you certainly are a cut above the rest ! > RUST never sleeps, I proved it once by parking my see 10 outside my bedroom window once, and the sound of the thing rusting
kept me awake all night, never again !
Oh, that is me < rob NZ
You only make that mistake once! Haha
Yes Kyle a Pt.2 on Mig welding would be great, Mike in Germany
Just uploaded part 2 now! Thanks Mike!
Heck yes, show us the corner fix. I have a rather rusty 72 Burb I’m working on. All the teaching you can offer are well accepted.
Cool project! New video coming soon!
I'm glad you didn't harm the computer they're getting hard to find for those 60s trucks
They sure are!
I am always interested, thanks!!!!
Please do a part 2😊
Kyle, I think you were pulling our collective legs. You don't need to disconnect the battery while welding, as those old trucks came with wind up computers, not those electro digital ones. You nearly had us!
Haha you got me! Always room for a little humor and leg pulling in the workshop!
Best trucks made in the sixties by far I hope you keep that one
I agree. I'll be selling this one, but I have another 66 that I'll be getting back on the road this summer and that one is a keeper
Canadian comedy gold.
can't wait for the livestream. Will there be a 2 drink minimum?
Unlimited drinks! Haha
Count me in for a sequel. Cheers!
I swear it was the frog's fault! Nice work. God bless
It's always the frogs fault!
Yes a part 2 please! Thank you!
that remark bout the computer had me wizz a bit , i never undo a battery pole and i never had issues with it on these newer ones with them in , so im guessing you wont either! good work on the old girl , i wish i was learned to do that good a job
Thanks! Haha
Have to admit that I’m mighty impressed that you’ve managed to find left-handed drills, and hammers.
Kyle is amphibious.
I do all my shopping at the Leftorium
@@CarterAutoRestylingand a left handed mig too. Wish I had one of those
@@CarterAutoRestyling Is that the name of the left handed only store on The Simpsons?
@@kennethstaszak9990 yup!
I vote yes for part 2
Kyle, glad ur back. I must confess 3 videos in a relatively short time is awesome. I could watch ur metal magic for hours. Plus ur hilarious! Welcome back!
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoy the show!
You are very much appreciated as well, my friend! See you Sunday.
Thanks Eric!
So file this under "Stuff I find amazing but will NEVER be able to do.." That is a work of art in the media of metal. Great job and really enjoyed this episode 👍 👏 Reminded me of Scott at Cold War Motors "splice the splice" series on his Fury..
I’d love to see the hood corners done with welding tips. Thanks!
Will do!
I suspect even as I write this…Part 2 of the hood repair is already in production. If not, it needs to be. Your efforts are appreciated.
Thank you and you're correct, part 2 is in the works!
Hey Canadian Kyle, South African Kyle here!!
I just bought a 1963 Chevy suburban that looked far better in the pictures, you know how it goes!!
I already watch a lot of your videos but I’ll now be binge watching your channel to try learn as much as possible because I’ll have to replace basically all the gutters, bottom of the fenders, sills and floors in mine.
And the best part about being in South Africa is that none of these panels are available to buy and parts vehicles are almost impossible to find!!
Thanks for the video Kyle, eagerly awaiting the next one.
Hi South African Kyle! Good luck on the new project, I love those suburbans! There's lots of videos coming up on the rust repair on this c10, I hope some of them will help you out!
@@CarterAutoRestyling thanks so much Kyle, can’t wait to see how I can apply what you teach us to my project😃👍🏼
I’m glad you disconnected the battery wouldn’t want to fry that HALTECH5500 and loose the 2000 HP E85 tune!
Opening scene where vehicle approaches camera: All other channels stop real close. Carter hits the tripod. Classic Kyle! Will try and make the live stream, Kyle, and a part 2 will be good, especially the mig tips. I've been doing a bit of that lately. Hopefully catch you Sunday. Mart.
Hi Mart! I noticed you've been doing a bit of welding lately haha. The 100e is coming along great!
love this channel
Thanks!
Thanks for taking on the adventure
Thanks for following along!
Dude we need part two..plus three videos in one week....hell yea
Ok I'll get right on it!
Never ever accept responsibility! Love it🤣🤣🥰
Great job.
Thanks!
Part 2, part 2!
Your the best Mr. Carter!
Thank you!
Your shop looks great! It’s clean and somewhat organized. What the hell happened? Now you’ve shown me up and I feel embarrassed by the mess in my garage.
Great work, as always. I look forward to your videos.
When I'm not making videos I've actually got time to clean up haha. Don't worry it will be a giant mess soon enough! Thanks for watching!
Very wise to disconnect the battery to avoid damaging the computer. I forgot once and all the beads got stuck to the wires. 😂. Thanks and good wishes.
Haha yeah I hate it when that happens!
Watching this gives me nightmares about what my 66 truck needs.
Haha just wait till we get into the rust on the cab of this one! It will make you feel a lot better about yours
Two thumbs up !
Thanks for another , Brother !!
HI Kyle, yes please on the rear hood corner rehab. Awesome metal work as usual, take care....
Thanks, I'm working on a video for the rear corners now!
Computer? Huh, I didn't know that mig welders were computer controlled. Learn something new every day.
Please continue with the hood. Thank you.
In the Hood..Nice
Man! I am so glad you unhooked the battery and saved the computer. That year computer is really, really hard to find. I looked everywhere crawled around look and looked never found it. I did order one from Shuck they said it will be here in a day or two. thank you stay safe ALL. Can you also repeat that again why you didn't just replace the hood, I was busy looking for that damn computer?
The last time I ordered a computer from them they sent me a set of ignition points, I hope you have better luck!
Specialist !
Remarkable work Kyle!
You talent and humor always satisfy.
Thanks for your video!
Thank you Henry!
Another tide resurrected. I always felt a sense of comfort knowing something was saved from being left to rot.
Part 2 yes please. Thank you.
Any work you wanna shear, is very welcomed, you do it right.
Thank you Robert!
i don't know why you only do the easy stuff hahaha
truly appreciate the time and effort you put into these "tutorials"....can't wait for the next gripping episode.
well done kyle
cheers joe
Thanks Joe!
Definatly love part 2 sir
Another epic video. I will try to remember the live stream. Thanks.
Thanks Paul!
That's some solid hood action. Keep up the steller content
Haha thanks!
The only problem with disconnecting the battery Kyle before you started welding is now you'll have to ship it to the dealer to have the computer flashed! I hope they still have the 60 yr old software. Next time I would suggest The Pennsylvania Porcupine Technique for hassle free bodywork and possible onboard computer problems!😎
Thanks for the suggestion Glenn. You were right, the truck has been stuck at the dealership all week. Would you believe they haven't even found the diagnostic port yet!
@@CarterAutoRestyling Just a word of caution on the diagnostic port...there was a mid year change! And they are not backward compatible because of the instruments dimmer light...LOL
Yeah I felt refreshed like from a cool breeze down to my spine after that cowl restoration
Looking forward to part 2. 👍
Definitely keen to see part 2! Especially things like wire speed and temp etc when using a mig 😊
Right on, I'll try to talk about that a bit in the next video
I was taught to do my welds far apart moving from one end and going to the other to keep the panel from warping.
But this idea of doing the welds and moving across the whole weld, grinding as you go, makes more sense than letting the part get cold and then going back and grinding, as the grinding is happening when the part is still warm due to the weld, as when you grind it it warms back up and lets the weld cool slower.
It just makes more sense.
On this repair I actually did it the way you were taught, keeping the panel as cool as possible and grinding afterwards. The other method I've shown of welding and grinding probably would have worked, however the front of the hood is quite flimsy and I don't have access to the back to hammer the welds, so I chose to play it safe.
Thanks for Sharing... The Hood Work.was Awesome!
Thanks for watching!
Yes please on part 2 for the hood.
I like the hub caps.
Top work Kyle. Obviously, some of your videos are better than others, but I love to watch everything you put out. I think you are wise not to fall into the way of some of the channels where they try to put out videos on a regular basis, but actually don't have any interesting content.
So you are saying you don't want me to start making videos about my trip to the grocery store or cutting my lawn? Haha
@@CarterAutoRestyling Definitely not. I hate shopping and gardening, the reminder would be too traumatic. Stick to what you do best.
I really dig the music you selected here! So much better than the Music Cued in My Head from earlier videos. Thanks!
Excellent job Kyle
Thanks John!
Flawz in da hood.
Really enjoy the repairs.
Right on! Thanks for watching!
Nice job Carter will look like new.great video. I would like too see a part 2
Thank you!
Keep going on the repairs ... I like these style videos ... nice job on the hood ... see you Sunday ... if I don't forget ...
Thanks Joe!
Part 2 yes please. got door bottoms need about that much repair
I'll watch any repair videos you make. Very inspirational.
Thank you!
yes please for the Part 2 if the hood repair, an the MIG tips. I love your work, keep it coming! Cheers
Thank you, I'm working on part 2 now!
Yes, Part 2 please and thank you!
Yes please, for a part 2 of the hood repair.
It was the garden gnomes.
It always is
Hanging tight for part 2!
I have to say that here is displayed a great amount of skill and practical knowledge. It's a shame that this video didn't have much more views. This is good job, keeep it up!
Thank you!
You are one of my favorites. Looking forward to part 2. My only criticism is that you are just too serious. Loosen up, relax and have some fun. Who knows, it might improve the quality of your repairs
Hey thanks for watching! Bodywork is a serious business, there's no room for humor in the workshop!
@@CarterAutoRestyling LOL
I would vote yes on a part 2.
Coming soon!
Corner repairs can be a big job because the frame is also just hanging in there too
Very true!
I would have gone right for the factory seam and created more work for myself, it's great to learn from experience.
I make mistakes so others don't have to haha
Good move on disconnect battery as not to damage computer. Those old school computers are getting scarce. 😂
Can never be too safe! Haha
Yes to the part 2 and mig tricks and tips.
Hi Robert! I'm working on that video now!
Thanks for your pearls of wisdom, Kyle!
Thank you for watching!
Correct gap and alignment on pick ups- not touching. Ship it.
Very true!
Excelent ! !
Definitely interested is seeing additional work being done on this truck as I am learning a lot.......But from a purely selfish perspective I need to stop watching these videos and get past my mental block and start taking on some of my body work that I continually evade.....Nahhh....I 'll keep watching your videos. Dealing with the rust removal and panel replacements on my car can wait 😀. Thanks for another great video!!
I do appreciate you watching, but I hope you're able to get some work done on your car too!
Sorry if I missed an explanation but why not swap in the entire donor hood?
Edit: Nevermind, I saw how much the donor hood was munched later in the video.
Please do a part 2, I have some repair on my 76 chevy truck that I will need to do in the future. The tips and tricks will help.
Working on part 2 now! Thanks for watching!
Definitely do a part 2. You are teaching us all Kyle. I sure appreciate the time and information you put into your projects.
Thanks, I appreciate you taking the time to watch!
Thanks for sharing .i have a 67 Australian ute with the front of the bonnet rusted away and no access behind so would love a part two.
Excellent repair and video Mr. Carter!
Thanks!
Always interested in a part 2. 👍🏴
That is actually a pretty good truck. Awesome job!
Thanks!
Yes, please do a part two for the bottom rear rust repair on the hood. I have a hood that needs that exact repair.
Currently working on part 2 now! I hope it will help you out!
Thanks Kyle!
Part 2 please.
