    Great to follow this build - you take the time to explain what task you're doing and then just get on with doing it.
    Onwards - making steady progress one weld at a time! 👍👍

      Thank you 🙏🏼 ! I’m glad you’re enjoying the build and also the videos. It’s been great building this little car and the peoples response has been amazing.

    Excellent idea of plasma cutting the rust off behind the rear wheels. A man could take the time and weld some 3/8 round stock at the edge of the cut to 💪 the lower part of the car. The stock would be cheap the labor would take time.

      I’m trying to think ahead and how to benefit the next guy. Trying not to go backwards at the same time.

    Wait... Somewhere I missed the floor pan sheet metal work. I've got to find it... This is great! I love watching this build. As bare-bones as it is, I'm completely fascinated with it. I'm glad that I stumbled upon it. Thanks again, for your time, Sir!

    Great! Some Hot Rod cotton candy going on here. Short and sweet. I'm addicted to the flow. I have a kit car project that I need to get to, so spending an hour to an hour and a half watching someone saw an English wheel forever doesn't really do it for me. No knock on those guys, this is just a better fit for my limited head space. Rock on Mike!

    Water heater strapping from home depot or one of those stores might work. it's 1 1/4 inch wide. Here in California it's required to keep your water heater from falling over in a bad earthquake. Lefty

    A slight tilt forward on a gas tank actually is best for getting that last drop out of the tank. 'Speshly if the pickup tube is in the front.

    • @ThisOldHotrod
      @ThisOldHotrod  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I understand that. It still will have a slight lean forwards. The petcock is on the bottom though. So I may lean it to that side also

    Your gas tanks mounts are great that's what anyone would have done to set up in the back to take weight once the tank is filled with gas.👍🏽
    Taking pride in your work I notice when your welding to make shire everything is secure so it's not a death trap.
