Just thought of something BC, make sure your bleeder is on top when you mount the calipers if you put them on the front of the rotor Otherwise you wont be able to bleed them, bleeder always needs to be facing up so the air rises to that highest point.
Any color you put on it will be amazing ,provided Jolene likes it! I think it is a tribute to your passion ,both for her and your craft, that you are building her this very cool ride. Thank you brother! Keep up the great work and living the dream.
Front caliper placement is most generally opposite the steering arm: front steer has rear caliper and rear steer has front caliper...usually. IMO, steering geometry gets precidence over caliper placement. So the rule would be always opposite the steering arm . 👍🏻 You should be good to go .
will be good to see the different methods of spraying different paints and cant wait to see what colour jolene has picked out for her bugatti thanks chad and jolene
Me too, picking a color is a big job. I’m just hoping he does something nice that will be on par with the design of the car. The Bugatti doesn’t need a show car pearl candy metal flake etc, but I do think it’s good enough for at least a nice color metallic basecoat clearcoat.
What a great color! That’s going to look awesome on the car. Can’t believe how fast you get stuff done. Thank you Chad and Jolene for sharing! I’m grateful
Two quick wheel painting tricks, 1. Shove index cards under the lip and overlap as needed instead of taping. 2. Use vaseline or armor all on the tires then paint and wipe off gel after paint dries. Cards is my fav! Try it once and you'll never tape another. Keep up the amazing work Chad! Amazing job on that car, so incredibly tasteful.... and perfect color Jolene!!
What a great project! You’re a very talented fabricator and I’ve learned so much just watching your videos. Thanks so much for sharing your build with us.
Great color!!! Very vintage!! I have been waiting for you to get back to work on this car!! This is super cool! Bugatti's 57 Atlantic's are one of my two favorite cars! None of us can afford one so a replica done to your high standards is something I strive for!
Well they are all hand built car's none of them are exactly the same, I get what you mean Chad and Jolene car is by far way better than how they built them in the 1930s-40s jag engine power steering power brakes hers car is going to be fast that big engine in that light weight car.
Brad - by using clear coat hardener you are reducing your window to put each coat on. Single stage paint takes forever to dry, days and days - it's drying time is like spray bombs. But BC CC system clear coat is dry and hard in a few hours. You can cut and buff it the same day if you're brave. I understand your logic to use it - it's much quicker, but it must make the window to put each coat on very narrow, not like a spray bomb. Spray bombs I would leave for hours. BC CC you have a few minutes window to work in. Maybe being a hybrid it's not as critical but I would imagine the hardener system rather than the colour vehicle is the important factor in the drying time.
I think the white looks great on the wheels, and would make an excellent accent color on the body as a two tone dark blue/off white paint job. Regardless of my paint preference, Chad and Jolene, are a great team and are building a fantastic car. The end result is for her and it’s her choice. I’m so glad that they have invited us all along for the ride. Thanks a million 👍🏻
Hi mi from the United kingdom,, I love the paintwork ,,I'm a sprayer when I spray wheels I put them on what we call , a turn table ,a square piece of wood with a pole bolted on the reverse then attached to a tripod ,allowing the wheels to spin around instead of walking around the wheel ,more control , it's just my thought Barrie Evans
I agree that the color is outstanding. Truly beautiful, especially with the interior color you describe. It will perfectly create the spirit of the era your Bugatti was inspired by. Many old Auburn Speedsters (high end luxury sports cars of the 1930's) were painted a similar color. I can't think of a more perfect hue. Great Choice!
Great color. The Bugatti has been sitting in primer for so long that a darker color wouldn’t seem right. Just seeing the initial spray on the rims really shows which direction this car is going. Ostrich interior, walnut dash, air ride, hand built tribute to a multimillion dollar piece of rolling art. Wow. Been a fan for a long time. Just keeps getting better!!!!
I hate working on caars but i did once upon a time as a teenager cut off the top of a Bedford van with my dad with a drill and lots of discs raise it 24 inches Frankenstein's campervan was born, we travelled the length and breadth of the Uk, modifying due to condensation, shir motor..bla bla...makes me proud of my dad. Your free spirit is inspirastional like fresh mint out of the garden
With all the subscribers and views these videos receive, is there not a company that can supply/support this incredibly talented and artistic couple with the proper ventilation for a paint both??? I don't mean a new booth or change the shop because there is a special comfort to his shop that cant be matched. Love The Channel/content , my hats off to all involved!!!
I like how you explain so well. I have a 6 year old great nephew that visits 2 weeks at a time. And your channel is one that I watch regularly. But I never thought a kid so young take an interest in a video that wasn't a cartoon are power rangers. I was flipping threw TH-cam and I stopped for a few seconds on one of your videos. I watch it just enough to see what you were doing and decided I will come back after he was a sleep. But no that didn't happen. The second I started surfing again he goes I wanted to se how was doing that. Which was the metal bending. Just thought you might like to know that the step by step explanation is good. Thank you for sharing your videos with us. When he come to stay we do a marathon of you and Heavy D.
Can't wait to see this car when she's all said and done. I can't imagine how you both must feel especially Jolene she's been waiting for a while and lets face it, its her dream car right. Its going to look fabulous. When its done...So far its looks amazing and its not even painted yet.
That's great that you have project's you can rotate from to keep you always busy. When one project your waiting on to come across a part you need you can work on one of your other car's. I was wondering why you didn't take the tires off the wheels before priming and painting? I'm guessing you don't have a tire mounting machine. Good thing you didn't powder coat any of the parts because you would be scraping most of the paint off to put parts together. The powder coat is so thick it throughs every thing off about an 1/8 . I had some wheels powder coated the hub caps would not fit until I shaved off some powder coat so the hubcaps could go on.. Keep on keeping on. As Gene Windfild would say "Every day is a school day"! From Northen California 👍🏽
you guys should keep a eye out at Flea Markets and Yard Sales for used HandiCapped Shower chairs one of those could make a temporary mock up seat for a car the legs are designed to be adjusted quickly and independently of each other so you could easily change them for any floor Pan to still keep the seat level
First time watching, subscribed and enjoying your vision as you walked outside and talked about the projects, gonna enjoy watching your older vids. Thx
Good evening jolene and chad hope all is well with you and your family and we are getting lots of rain on this side of the island also thank you for sharing your knowledge and information and congratulations to all the winners also it would be amazing to win one of these key chains with all the work that went into making them also the colour you picked is so beautiful
single stage paint is applied in 2 and ahalf coats. 2nd coat is applied after 1st coat is almost tack free or 15min. the half coat is applied right after the second coat with the gun further away. 4 car wheels front and back should take 30min
Nice to see the Bugatti build progressing! What happens to the paint while your waiting for the spray jobs to dry to continue? Does it not set up with the harder in it?
When brakes are finished, which kind of brake fluid will you use, Dot4 or Dot5 silicone? As long as it is not a rally or racing car we use Dot5 silicone as the braking system remains free of condensation and prevents rust.
Have any of you used playing cards or index cards tucked into the gap between the tire and rim when painting, then you use paper or plastic or whatever to cover the sidewalls. Great job Chad!
Vote for Jolene here: miss.jetsetmag.com/2022/jolene-macintyre
Already have lol
👍
Everyday
I do it everyday here in England.
I was hoping for jaguar racing green on the Bugatti but Jolene picked a beautiful color for her car ! Thumbs-up Jolene 👍 and 👍 Chad !
Just thought of something BC, make sure your bleeder is on top when you mount the calipers if you put them on the front of the rotor Otherwise you wont be able to bleed them, bleeder always needs to be facing up so the air rises to that highest point.
Had to make sure to do this when I made a custom big brake conversion on my Vanagon, using Audi calipers.
There are workarounds.. just bleed them off the rotor then flip them around and install them.
Big Mike is right
Any color you put on it will be amazing ,provided Jolene likes it! I think it is a tribute to your passion ,both for her and your craft, that you are building her this very cool ride. Thank you brother! Keep up the great work and living the dream.

I especially like how well you ND Jolene work together . I think that's so cool..

Coming together nicely. I love how you can do so much with basic tools. Amazing talent !
Thank you guys, watching you work in this live format is a privilege and a priceless way to learn.
What a great color jolene picked out everything’s going to match perfectly 👍
Never miss an episode of the Chad and Jolene show. Ultimate entertainment. Love it.

Those wheels are going to be marvelous. You go Jolene. Another great episode.

Can’t wait for the body to be painted. Time and patience. Small things make the job look great!!
Another great video, thanks Jolene, Chad, and Fina. Bill
Nice job Chad and Jolene . Love your cars but I’m fascinated with the COD build , ‘ cab over distributor’ build. I’m in love with COD .👍👍👍
This should be quite interesting. Best on TH-cam. Keep up the good work team Hiltz!
Great job nice paint colour thanks for sharing
That's great that you have project's you can rotate from to keep you always busy.

Keep on keeping on.

I think you are remarkable in that you can have so many projects in your mind all at once. You are a craftsman that is for certain.
Awesome Color!!! Will Look Spectacular With The Painted Hub Caps & Chrome Ring Trim!!
That color is going to work really well! Going to be an amazing car
Looking forward to finding out the colours!
I really like the color choice, it's going to look classy!
Ostrich white should look great! Wheels are looking wonderful!
That antique white is gonna be beautiful on Jolene's Bugatti
Love the idea of the coupe chop... never seen that sort of chop been done before... whoooo hoooo...😎
you guys should keep a eye out at Flea Markets and Yard Sales for used HandiCapped Shower chairs one of those could make a temporary mock up seat for a car the legs are designed to be adjusted quickly and independently of each other so you could easily change them for any floor Pan to still keep the seat level
Nice wills Great paint job
First time watching, subscribed and enjoying your vision as you walked outside and talked about the projects, gonna enjoy watching your older vids. Thx

Nice color....the chassis will really pop!!👍🇨🇦
Chad you make everything seem so easy, its awesome to watch.

Good evening jolene and chad hope all is well with you and your family and we are getting lots of rain on this side of the island also thank you for sharing your knowledge and information and congratulations to all the winners also it would be amazing to win one of these key chains with all the work that went into making them also the colour you picked is so beautiful

I Am a Big fan of single stage poly painted 5 cars with it myself looked great fire engine red
Great work, great color Chad! You and Jolene keep up the good work.
How do you heat the shop? At what temp is the shop when you paint?
Great colour choice ... very elegant and will suit the car. lt is close to the colour l chose for our Cord Westchester that we built from scrap. 😎👍💯
That shade of white looks amazing.cant wait to see more.
When you reverse the spindles from front steer to rear steer....wont you change the ackerman ratio and effect the steering angle?.....
a beautiful paint job, wondering your thoughts on powder coating .thx
What a wonderful job you guys are doing. Can’t wait to see the finished work. Myself and my husband never miss a TH-cam video of you guys. 🤩😎👍
When brakes are finished, which kind of brake fluid will you use, Dot4 or Dot5 silicone? As long as it is not a rally or racing car we use Dot5 silicone as the braking system remains free of condensation and prevents rust.
Beautiful color her car will turn so many heads! Sweet job Chad and Jolene!
Nice car you guys I'm so glad you're back working on it that color is really nice for a high end build
Coming along great,I think spraying is fun,prepping is the harde st part
Lol little bit of snow. Here in Texas that would be a large snow storm. Very rarely ever see that much but usually get ice a few times a year.
Thanks so much for sharing your build with us.
Great colour choice. Love you two working together
The Chad and Jolene dream machine we're almost there . Good luck to the winner of the first key ring. She's really going to pop a few eyes .
Nice looking color on the wheels !!!!!
Beautiful colour choice. Very classy. Hey, let's see the Fleetline again. Love that car.
Will look amazing with the black , I have a Classic Mini with that combo . Its looks a very close colour to Old English white .
That color on the wheels looks great. It will contrast well with all the black.
The choice of color seems to me to be spot on. Classy, elegant and vintage.
Great job guys. 😎👍
Greetings from Switzerland
Watching from UK on Sat am .love all your talk and showing your next project.......brilliant job the both of you 😊😊😊😊
Thanks for keeping us along with you in this process!
Great choice of paint color the white looks amazing 👍
Watched this on the Friday am in UK Brilliant job by Chad and Aydon.
What a beautiful color right on!!!!!
Maritime proud
Looking great ! I know Jolene will love it !
Great color! That will look awesome. Can’t wait to see the car painted now.
Have any of you used playing cards or index cards tucked into the gap between the tire and rim when painting, then you use paper or plastic or whatever to cover the sidewalls. Great job Chad!
Good colour choice and a nice nod to the Jaguar engine. The colour looks like 'Old English White' a 60s Jag paint.
Good choice of colour Jolene...very elegant!
Amazing job for both of you to make an incredible Bugatti.
great job on the wheels .I think the coral on that engine valve covers would look great to match.
