Really appreciate the tips guys. Love watching powernation videos always never time wasted 👌👍
Love the old school body work guys!! Brings back memories of being in my dads body shop
what i like about the body work end of their show is even if they wind up with a pile they generally carry it the job through. their metal work clean enough and they demonstrate what any one who wants to do their own car can do with the right amount of determination bondo or no bondo they aren't grind and fill piles.
just get out there and get to it. these cars don't build them selves.
Well said my guy
Thanks for passing your experience to all of us. It is greatly appreciated.
I miss doing body work! Great show!
Love it can't wait to see the finished 😢
Definitely needed this as I am doing the body work on my 81' Malibu (Whole Car)
Use about 1/8 the bondo they do.. seriously.. if you want a perfect paint job that is going to last, bondo should never be more than 1/16.. get it perfect with hammers and dollies
Awesome channel. Always very interesting and I learn something every time. I look forward to every video. You're head and shoulders above The Motor Trend channel . You should have millions of subscribers.... Keep it up and keep it free and you're going to surpass them.
Nice job, that bird looks great.
Very informative.
Looking good, Rick.
Should of covered the engine bay
I've been told when you Weld Chrome, it produces a dangerous chromium oxide gas that when inhaled, is VERY TOXIC!!! Is this TRUE? A lot of welding was done to that bumper.
Muy buen trabajo q hacen ✌
Wow... any reason you didn’t tape off the engine bay before creating all that dust from sanding? I wouldn’t want that anywhere near my engine and other mechanical components.
It will effect absolutely nothing, first stage of body work so car will obviously come apart again
Dustin Babb Not sure if we’re referring to the same thing. I understand where in the process they are with the body work. However, they could’ve wrapped or cover the engine and other mechanical / electrical components to either not get any dust inside them or keep them clean and dust free. They’re not doing any body work in the engine bay itself.
Thought the exact same thing. All that lovely dust floating around and find it's way into the intake not to mention just being a PITA to clean up.
I was thinking the same thing...
@@Parents_of_Twins It's not gonna find its way into the intake or anything else. It's a very fine dust. No point in masking everything off when the car is gonna be torn back apart for painting. You can literally blow the dust out with an air hose.
Thank you for showing that I've been wanting to know a lot of that info.
RIP in peace those guys’ lungs.
A friend bought a new '65 Fairlane Special Edition 2 door hardtop with gold emblem 289 emblems. (271) HP. It developed an oil leak. At his 3rd attempt to get valve cover gaskets the dealership said " Oh , That must be the special edition engine." I always thought it was a 289 Cleveland , but now wonder if it was a Boss 302 prototype escaped from the stable .
Ah, the heck with the hammer and dolly!
Masillla en exceso le aplican a los vehiculos restaurados.
El uso de la masilla creo que se aplica en las zonas de soldadura, y metales mal planchados.
Hey guys will xou do DODGE DART HEMI🥰🥰❤️❤️ SUPER STOCK
66 Mustang was standard with the 200c.i. straight 6. The V8 came as either a C code 289 with a 2barrel and single exhaust, an A code 289 with 4 barrel and dual exhaust rated at 210 h.p. and the K code. There was no G code.
They're going to be sweet guys thanks for sharing
How do you know you sanded enough, when to stop.
You need to go over with you hand and feel.. and use a guide coat to help you.
Never thought of using a stud gun without a stud like that. Cool tip
Daniel Lawson yep. They make a tip just for shrinking.
LMAO...does this voice over guy ALWAYS talk like this?? Imagine him ordering a burger n fries with that deep voice.
LMFAO
Yea, I find the voice more annoying than a valley girl.
very cool 😁✌🖖👌👍😎
I used to work at a Yacht yard, and we called that stuff 'Fartrock'...
Sweet man thanks u guys are the shit
You should be wearing a mask sanding that filler.
MSW it’s called a voice over.
i have also noticed that they never wear any hearing protection, angle grinders in a garage space will destroy hearing!
Most “bondo’s” with a hardener (from my day/I’m old) had arsenic in them. I wonder if they still do?
How long does it actually take you guys to do a car?
I hoping to see you working on the Comet. Oh, well....
was
I've always wondered why reproduction stampings aren't as good? I've always thought that they had the old dies used by the manufacturers.
Even original stampings had flaws in them. Look at the quality control of a 1960's mustange to modern mustangs. Much tighter panel fitment and alignment. The old dies also have a lifespan. they become damaged and distorted over time.
We never put plastic on top of primer. If it is just primed metal (without already having plastic under the primer), we remove the primer completely down to bare metal, rough it up with 36 grit (or 80 works) paper on a d.a., clean it, then apply filler. Filler doesn't stick to primer just like it doesn't stick to paint. Well...it will stick long enough to get it out the door! Unless, you know...something's changed that I don't know about.
These guys are showing the "Get it just barely good enough to sell and who cares what happens after" method
Most modern body fillers and glazing putties will adhere to an epoxy primer which is an excellent base layer. When body filler cures it creates heat. That heat can cause condensation between the body filler and bare sheet metal that could potentially lead to failure or rust down the road. Acceptable loss for a daily driver for collision repair but not a $60,000 restomod that still has to look good 40 years from now.
I can't believe the amount of mud you guys use...filling a hood - slam crack!
As a former body man you're incorrect. Plastic fillers when used correctly and to correct thicknesses won't crack because you close the hood.
@@troyeberling2432 *_MOST BEAUTIFUL CARS IN WORLD COME WITH ZERO FILLER CAUSE THAT IS ONLY USED BY IDIOTS LOOKING TO DO QUICK BODY WORK!!!_*
@@troyeberling2432 *_HMMM HOW MANY CARS COME FROM FACTORY GLOBALLY WITH BONDO OH ZERO!!!_*
@@Thelongmanable I'm curious. How many years of experience do you have in the auto body repair and restoration business?
@@troyeberling2432 *_I'm curious why you lack basic ability to accept reality and tons of retards walking around doing things wrong for 30 plus years to have a 12 year old with smart phone tell them their a idiot with a 3 sec search on Google...

Why not mask off the interior or engine bay????
Very strange
Because there was no interior and the throttle body was closed off no reason to do it?????
Just refound the red sled Impala series what happened why didn't y'all finish?
I had a 1961 Chevy Impala the vehicle in this video appeared to be a Belair .
It's an Impala
i worked at a shop were the owner was banned from antique Corvette shows because he won all the time and we never filled like that. we used filler, but damn! when this trend start happening? wet sading primer was all we did.
3:40. So, put the hood on the car and then sand
Good tips for us 53 yr old nubbiest learning folks.
Ok in a world where the Boss 302 and Boss 351 exists who in their right mind would choose the K code 289 as the greatest Ford small block???
@ They are still considered small blocks so exactly how am I wrong or uneducated Mr. AL or AI?
@ Why don't you educate yourself and look at the description of the Boss 302. The Boss 302 was constructed by attaching heads designed for the planned 351 Cleveland to a Ford SMALL BLOCK.
@ The Cleveland series blocks share the same 4.38" bore spacing and cylinder head bolt pattern as the Windsor V8 family. Hmmm what are those Windsor V8's called again oh yeah SMALL BLOCKS. So educate yourself before calling someone else stupid with your dumb comments.
@ I didn't need to search Wiki to learn but to verify that I was correct, there's a difference. You are the one who decided to insult someone over something that you were wrong about and still haven't apologized for which shows the kind of person you truly are, a troll.
@ Oh I'm sorry did you think that you bothered me? No once I realized you were a troll I forgave your comments and moved on with my life. I hope you have a great weekend as well.
Please watch Mr. Miracle Man TM.
We used to call that "frenching" the bumper. Don't know why we called it that, the part certainly didn't come from France. But that term was used with a lot of parts. You gotta' wear a face mask when you're doing all that bondo work.
Think of French cuff dress shirt. I think that is where it comes from.
I would love to learn how to TIG weld. But I guess MIG welding is good enough for what I do anyway
I'm teaching myself. Plenty of great videos that go over how to do it. I would suggest Welding Tips and Tricks youtube channel. Jody is awesome in his videos and gives a lot of great info. He doesn't cut out mistakes either so it is really helpful.
No dust mask or hearing protection
I wish in indonesia....
Half of this video is full of things you DONT want to do when fixing your car...
Bacon left the program years ago
$2,416.... I'll take 10 please.
He keeps referring to the Firebird as a TransAm but it is not. That's a standard 1969 Firebird convertible. And those Honeycomb wheels are not Pontiac. They don't belong on that Firebird.
Why don't you cover the engine while sanding that mud.
i would never let you touch my car it seems like most shops trash all the new clean stuff just like you are blow the car apart and do it right
no vacumes or plastic covering fotr the engine? wdf is wrong with these people.
This is exactly why I quit watching this show about 15 years ago
They haven't been doing it long enough i been doing since 68..they have money and a buy a crate motor approach to save time I build broke blown up worn junk with brains not wallet plus they have a ton of room in there and only couple projects i have no room and 25 projects and 1200 sq ft low ceiling. ..no hoist. !!!!!
@@msw7021 I was hoping it was an early episode with Lou on it still
man that car was swiss cheese
Looks like the guy that sand blasted that hood warped it to me. Blasting is a good way to ruin a decently straight classic car.
I remember why I stopped watching this show 15 years ago.. went downhill quick.. should have been titled, today, we show you how you shouldnt use bondo!
Bondo should never be used like that.. 1/16 in thick, like 1/8 max.. all that is covering up is laziness and not making the metal perfect.. no thanks on a bondo sled..
Why not at least show someone doing pick and file or the lead fill?
Secret: If you have to do this much work on a car, it's not worth buying. You're losing time and time is money.
I just hate doing body work in general, but your right, unless it's a very rare car it usually isn't worth it
if you do this as a full time job you sound like a woman judging u because you drink a beer on a monday afternoon
@@5.7_cruz if you do this as any kind of job, you're wasting money. If you do this as a hobby, you're wasting time and money on a car that still won't have much value. It's better spent money to buy a car from SoCal, Arizona or West Texas in decent shape because you'll end up spending less and have spent less time as well. Smarter not harder.
@@user-ty5di3ku6o however as these cars become harder to find you end up working with rougher specimens.
@@bmstylee true, but it's just a base model Impala. Nothing special. My friend has a '69 base model Caprice with 54k miles in solid shape for sale for $8,000. They've definitely spent more than $8,000 to resurrect that rust bucket.
Why would you strip the e coat off? You should’ve just sanded it and filled over it.
The grit of sandpaper required to rough the metal up enough for any body filler would strip it right off anyway. Factory e coat is junk.
PainterFRO false! I’m a body tech. I do the shit every day. You could hit that with 220 and then skim coat it no problem.
The e coat gives the finish an uneven surface after everything is said and done.
Sak 20012019 False. I get new panels every day with e coat scuff and spray as long as there’s no dents or anything. You never take e coat off if you don’t have to. That’s the first thing you learn in autobody. I’ve been around autobody my entire life. I’ve been doing it professionally for 5 years.
American ProPatriot i have seen waves develop is all im saying. It is not as people think it is. People have different ways of doing things
Guess new sheet metal isn't perfect niether
*_They didn't come from the factory with bondo so why the hell would you pay someone to paint it with bondo... They are misleading a ton of people in society...._*
If you want the laser straight, show quality paint job that you can sell on barrett jackson for high dollars is why. Factory panels come with hoops and whoops that most don't notice.....until...the panel becomes damaged and suddenly they're the worlds biggest critic at a body shop of why their repaired or replacement panel isn't laser straight.
@@troyeberling2432 *_IT'S NOT STRAIGHT CAUSE THEIR HILL BILLY RETARDED SELVES BEAT IT OUT WITH A HAMMER LIKE A PRIMATE AND WANT A QUICK FIX REPAIR. BONDO IS TO COVER UP THEY DID NO WORK TO THE CAR JUST FILLED IT IN SANDED SLIGHTLY AND PAINTED...._*
@@troyeberling2432 *_YOU WANT TO USE JUNK YARD PARTS AND SLAP CRAP TOGETHER WITH LITTLE PREP AND BONDO FILLS MAKES THAT HAPPEN.. TO STUPID TO STAND UP TO INSURANCE MAN AND ASK FOR MORE MONEY TO FIX THE CAR RIGHT WITH NEW PANELS.... LEAVE THE JUNK IN THE JUNKYARD BUY NEW PANELS!!!_*
@@troyeberling2432 *_Nothing other than show car only restomods have bondo under the paint.... Restored correctly million dollar cars have zero bondo because they didn't come from the factory with it but straight freshly stamped sheet metal!!!_*
@@troyeberling2432 *_Ok bud I fixed your 5 million dollar Buggatie with bondo.... WHAT!!!!_*
who in then hell wants a car full off bondo replace with metal
That is one thing about these car "builders", that I don't like. If you are going to do body work on a car, why use 15 or 20 gallons of Bondo? I used some Bondo on a quarter panel in high school, all it does is crack in cold weather.
Please paint it Red, or White, not Black
Man, I'd rather be tortured by professionals than do an hour of bodywork........... I've got to admit you birds aren't taking the easy way on anything.

*_THEY SHOULD CHANGE THE NAME TO BONDO MUSCLE MACHINES!!!_*
Or “mudscle” machines.
@@johnshaw873 *_How many new cars or million dollar cars has bondo on them... HINT ZERO and paint body work is 1000 times better for it..._*
*_WAIT DID WE JUST GO THROUGH A MASSIVE REGRESSION IN AUTOBODY REPAIRS!!!! DEAR DUMAS BEHIND THE CAMERA APART OF THE CREW THINKING THIS IS HOW BODY WORK SHOULD BE DONE PLEASE BY ALL MEANS LEAVE!!!_*
It’s a 2008 show.
Wayyyy too much filler and why in the #($*# would you ruin a bumper like that?!?!
Looks like 500 lbs of plastic filler on that car.
Probably paper thin, when done.
Much blablabla
The Much Hyped 271 hp 289 was really a Pathetic Engine.
Stock it was but after the GT350 kit its 306hp then headers lemans cam 11 to 1 port match next up valves heavy springs roller tip rockers..400hp roughly capable 7500 rpm..my 65 comet i built on poverty wages 2bbl short blk lemans cam built heads ported 194..150 valves 315lbs open springs F4B w/600 holley could hit 6800 ..scary for 2bbl bottom ..beat 56 chev BBC pro stock at drags got into semi finals on my poverty budget with $1 ea junk tires from Firestone dumpsters. .if only i had their shop and their money. .?
@@brantardrey7360 It must have had Horrible Fuel Economy too. No Vacuum Advance on the Distributor, even Cheny's LT1 had that, and it was putting out more HP/cubic inch than the 289. I am referring to the Stock Configs.
My first car was a 1966 Galaxie with the 289. It's Main and Con Rod Bearing were so worn, it several bearing Knocks. It sounded like a cross of a Washing Machine, and a Tin Box with several Marbles bouncing around. However, I abused it for 4 years and it never blew up.
@@pjimmbojimmbo1990 if I drop it like a white man I could get 15 miles to the gallon it was all tight I get a hundred pounds oil pressure it had 180 lb compression if I remember right and it'll LeMans Cam and it was solid lifters and a four-speed I love driving it around I had it for 28 years I raced every brand of vehicle including big block Mopar cars Camaros all kinds of junk and it wasn't a question of beating everybody but everybody thought I had a 390 in it and when they saw it was a 289 and by the way when I first got it it was a two barrel intake manifold people couldn't believe it but it didn't have a LeMans cam I built it up later and I gave everybody a run for their money and it didn't burn oil leak oil or smoke it's just a matter of how I tune things
