Drove by Dan's shop a few years ago because my son in law is in the Navy and was Stationed in Virginia. Decided to just drive by to see the place as it was late and not expecting to see anyone. We were walking around the shop just star struck with the place and Dan comes out the back with Lady and invites us in and gives us a quick tour of the place . What a true Gentleman. Will ne er forget how generous he was with his time. THANKS AGAIN DAN ....🍷
I'm really hoping to get there one day and take a tour.
I could sit here and listen to Dan Short talk about cars all day long!
could this be any more heartwarming , absolutely love you Dan and would love to see more episodes ,but , because we love and respect you ,would also , never ask that of you ,your happiness is too valueble.
Me too Dan is awesome
I loved the show, and I'm very happy to see Dan and company again!
Dan had the best car show on tv. Very outspoken to the owners about what their car is going to need and how much . He rebuilt car from his heart. Thanks for a great show.👏👏
Dan I'm so glad you're back on the air especially in a better situation TH-cam Forever. PS I had a 6288 convertible white white two-door I love that car at a valve seal job done on it for a lousy $25 at a gas station and they knew what they were doing but that was way back in 65 66. Great car. Keep up the great videos mile marker Mikey Trenton Michigan 78 year old retired Telephone Man
You are a straight up guy, and that's what I like about you and your shop. Well done, Dan and family.
The reason I like Fantom Works is because Dan is so down to earth and honest, really quite refreshing. No phony drama or antics like some other customs shops.
Integrity. Passion. Humility. Vision, = Dan. This video was inspirational to me.
I simply love Dan's philosophy. Just because it's old doesn't mean it's no good and should be thrown away. There's beauty and history in old things that have stories to tell us, we only need to listen. Dan is so passionate it is difficult to not be swayed by him. I loved the show and am thrilled to see the shop is still restoring memories.
Love it when you said cars are investment in emotion which is really how most car people feel about the vehicles they own Thanks Dan
FantomWorks is one of my favorite shows........................ EVER.
The Skill to do what your employees do is amazing , Your shop is unreal.
Dan, you're amazing. I watched your show until I gave up cable. Love the history.
Always loved and respected Dan's attitude. If I was getting a car restored he is the guy to do it. No short cuts. You know the car will be safe and correct. Those shows that did a car in 2-3 weeks you know it is rubbish.
Love the history of the building and the tools. It is fun to see you all do much more than restoring vintage cars and bikes. Love to see that. It reminds me of my love of restoring mechanical watches. And my mate who has loads of original machines from the late 19hunderds and early 20th century. He is making a lot of parts himself to. It is to keep the arts of restoring good things active, to do things the right way.
I always really enjoyed the series Fantom Works. Dan time and again, demonstrated his honesty and hard work ethos. He never preached his great values, for him it is what it is. . . .No BS. His engineering and mechanical skills and knowledge are second to none, in humble opinion. Now here he is speaking on his work in his workshop. Equally his speaking abilities are amazing, like previous comments, I could listen to Dan Short all day. If Dan reads this he'll probably laugh his head off. Such is the real humility of this man. I would take my car to Fantom Works and no one else. I have a 63 Kennedy and I live in New Zealand.
This was my favorite automotive show. No drama.Dan is down to earth ,and has good relationships with his people.I love that Chevelle. Restomod is the way to go.
I tried to meet Dan during SEMA 2017 when he debuted the all metal, I think it was the 67 fastback Mustang. He was so busy talking to prospective buyers that I never got the chance, but man what an interesting guy. I really admire his business acumen and wish him and his team the very best moving forward.
Dan, I spent 37 years in dealerships as a service advisor, manager and parts manager. The body shop was not for me.
I retired and decided to get my father’s Shelby Dakota resprayed. Was quoted 6k.
Final # was $25k but I have no regrets. The body work is flawless. Plus there was probably a dozen ( we might as well we’re here items. Usually my suggestions.
The material flat rate lesson blew me away.
Thanks
Love your new format and I understand leaving tv
Dan my name is Vern I am a 60year old man and I spent most of my adult life twisting wrenches i am one of 8kids 5boys3girls out of the boys im the only one who followed my dad in the mechanic field and he tought me everything he knew and he told me if I paid attention to what I was doing and evolved with it and the cars i could always put food on the table.i just wanted to let you know that someone out here (in Oregon) understand s and agrees with you when you see someone charging someone outrageous amounts for shitty work diserve s to have their ass kicked so on that note i know you probably won't read this but if you do i commend you for the A s (always putting the car and the saftey of your customers first and always do your best no matter what.you sir are a great addition to the car world) and I thank you for all you do.
Thank you.
On the show, I always appreciated you went the extra mile to help veterans!
Didn't think I needed a tour, glad I watched it.
You can tell Dan has got his you know what together by the way his shop is set up. Very organized & impressive. Sure miss his show.
WOW !! That is by far the coolest building I've ever seen. It's like a full on museum. Its fully furnished with the coolest of all the ol signs ! Thank you for sharing your building. Truly appreciate the tag along. Amazing place sir. Absolutely Amazing.
I drove by your place for years as a career Sailor, Loved the show . I've a 93 foxbody I'm pretty proud of.Glad to see you here,God Bless
Wow what a passionate man and how he treats his customers with love and care I always like watching Dan On TV hes definitely One incredible Guy Love listening to his stories
Wow, Dan is the Real Deal Car Guy! Feel like I have known him for years after watching this video. Cool dude for sure!
Love this guy, no B.S ; honest and to the point . I would go no place else for a total resto !
I've watched the show for years and loved it. I'm excited about your TH-cam channel.
was sad to see the tv show stop; but i understand why. I was happy to see your you tube channel as I love the work you and your crew does. Thanks for letting me be part of your experience.
I don't think there is an episode of Fantom works show that I only saw once. I was stationed at NAS Norfolk for A little over two years way back in the mid 60's and so watching the show was A treat, partially for that reason. I enjoyed my time in Norfolk immensely. I would have loved participating in this tour of his building, as would anyone. Thanks for making it available on TH-cam.
What a cool guy. Never missed an episode. 🙂
This reminded me about how much I loved Dan's show.
i love this guy! I can watch Dan Short all day!
Love your shows we watch reruns every week.
Colonoscopy comment was funny. We loved the show as car guys and wrench turners and appreciate the talent of your team. Also admire you for doing something you've loved all these years... not many can say that!
Hi Dan, glad you’re still at it, some of the builds I watched you and the guys do on the TV show were great, not so much for the results, as for the reasons! Helping folks out, who are in need of your skills, to lighten their burdens! Regards Al
Didnt know you had a TH-cam channel? I miss the show! Absolutely loved the show! Hands down favorite car show ever! Will be fan for life!
I have a LOT of time for nostalgia. Love the memories of my miles in old Chevy pickups with my dad.
Thanks for the tour Dan. I walked around the building last year and looked through open doors, but you weren't doing tours then. Loved the show. Just discovered these youtube videos.
Retired Army aviator here. Love seeing your army memorabilia in your office.
Great to see you again Dan,keep up the great work brother. 👍
I was so happy to run a crossed your TH-cam channel hard-core fan of the show you and your family love the builds and the shop. So glad you’re back doing it your way love y’all
My favorite build was the old Mack firetruck! It was a wonderful show glad the beautiful shop continues turn out restorations😎
Just happened to see this come up while I was on youtube. I really enjoyed Dan showing us around his shop. Loved his show. I think I still have all the episodes of his shows on my DVR. I go back and watch them occasionally.
Great presentation Dan! If I weren't 2000 miles away I'd have been front and center.
Great video and really enjoyed the show, I found it unusually genuine. If I ever need work done to a "keeper car" I 'am going to be bringing it here.
Im so glad to find this channel. I loved the show and now i know i will love the content of the channel.
Dan is the real deal and a veteran too
Yes he is!
Absolutely love the things Dan points out and mentions. When i have the opportunity im going to be reunited with my father and a 1963 Ford Galaxy 500 convertible with a 390 and hopefully drive up from North Carolina to Va and have Dan and his dream makers make mine come true.
I really enjoyed watching the show. I hope it comes back with new episodes. Very educational.
I went by that building 1000 times back in the 70's and 80's. There's also a machine shop other side of the tracks. They built a room for us , for one of the carriers.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You!!!!!!!!!!! I love that building too!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great to see you back!!!!!
I think Dan is an amazing man I was so happy to see this on TH-cam I watch the whole thing right away. I think I watched his shows continuously over and over again it was a time when I started watching Dan’s videos after I lost my wife it helped me to get through the bad time and I continue to watch the shows to this day over and over again I was so happy to see his shop doing very well so I just want to say thank you Dan for what you have done for me I wish someday I could meet Dan and shake his hand and say thank you !
I nearly didn't watch this video but I'm hell glad I did. You are an amazing man Dan, I used to watch the show on TV & when this came up in my YT feed I thought "Oh Yea" I'll see what's happening. You got me Mate, subscribed & all. Billy J.... Queensland, Australia. 🚥🚦🚥
Great video tour! Some day if my wife and are out your way from the west coast, I would enjoy seeing everything in person. Repurpacing the building and contents is pretty dang cool!
Thx Dan!
I had a 1965 Excalibre to take care of for a lady, it sat on a Studebaker frame, it had a Chevy 327/300 engine, a borg/warner T-10 4 spd. trans with a 2.20 low gear, with a 3.24 ten bolt Posi read-end. The body was fiber glass and aluminum, it only came with a tonneau cover, no cloth top. Just a "Fair weather" car, lol. I hope this helps, Dan, if at all. The purchase price back then was $6,000.00. The Chevy Corvette didn't reach 6 grand until 1969, it came with the L/88 engine.
Thanks for the great tour.
Great video! I am so impressed with his love for vintage tools and cars! The shop is amazing! Very intersting guy. I would love to meet him.
Dan Short is a no bullshit man’s man. I loved the show and I’m so happy to see that he has this channel so we can keep up to date on what’s up with him and his shop. 😎
Notice that this shop is up in the east of the u.s.a. where they have to deal with a lot more rust, compared to our shops out here in the Western desert. Makes it a lot tougher to do restoration.
Dan puts up with more than I would from some of his customers.
Great to see you back, Dan! Excellent video sir!
Love the new show. Fancy camera work and perfect dialog don't mean squat. Imperfection makes it perfect! Way more enjoyable!
My all time favorite car show. Attention to detail with no drama.
I was vacationing in VA a few years ago. We got stuck in local traffic and took a side road right into Dans shop. It was closed but it was really cool. Miss this show.
Always a great show, but success was because he and his shop was real, good seeing him in his element and happy after the "TV" experience, all the best.
That was incredible, thank you.
Great information tour Dan. Thank you
Great to see the show again very informative 👍
Welcome back I enjoy following the work you all do on the cars
Hey Dan,loved the shop tour especially all the history of the building.Truly awesome to have a very old shop building to work on very old cars😁👍
Thank you for the tour. That was informative etc. I loved it.
Glad to see this video in a decent resolution. I can only dream of having enough money to have Dan & his crew do a car for me. On TV I remember a "68 Mustang Fastback resto-mod that was awesome.😉
You are absolutely right, I have so many things that are sentimental from my father. Thumbs up!
I love to watch this man he is good at what he does
This was one of my favorite shows
brilliant Dan . miss you on Fantom Works TV . Always a great fan from the UK.
Good day Dan, glad to see you still doing well. Always loved the shows,looks like you do top notch work. I questioned some of your client's thoughts, but thats life. I'm disabled and retired and wish I could afford doing a car in your shop. Good going in the future. Have a Merry Christmas. Northwest Indiana bench racer, D
Cool video tour of your building and shop spaces. Love the building itself also
Dan , thank you for the great tour. I've been a fan for years, glad to know your business is still going strong.
Nice to see you guys!!
I enjoyed the tour, I enjoyed the show and respected Dan all the time,
This one of my favorite shows in Canada we got it on Discovery Channel. Too bad it is off the air the whole team is awesome.
Love the show, and the rule of thumb you give for build-time/cash... I liked that Ferrari hydro you did, that was nuts! Thanks for the tour!
That 68 Firebird looks like the one I had years ago...Damn I want another 1...:)
Dan is definitely the man love everything about his channel 👍👍👍💯💯
Amazing tour of the facility! Fully understand Dan's Philosophy on car restoration. Having grown up around long term restorations by both my grandfather and father, (Who were both engineers) Correction was always the theme.
Thank you so much for sharing this video tour .
Dan, your absolutely right. Classic cars, are about the memories and how they become family. I agree, never look at the money.
I would love it if you could give is a look into your GRP laminating area if you have one.
I have done custom one off GRP repairs and parts for specialist vehicles for 17 years. Always love restoring what others believe can not be restored.
This is one of the greatest youtube video's I've ever watched.
Great to see the show again
Did the tour a few years ago, we really enjoyed it. It is funny I spent most of my navy carreer in Norfolk and never knew this was here.
Thank you Dan short👍
Fantastic building great job Dan
I miss Mr Short's show, Fantom Works. Of all the auto restoration shows on TV, his seemed to be the most realistic. Dan always appeared to be an honorable man who always tried to treat his clients honestly and with respect. Good man.
Great tour,...I immediately honed in on the '79 Honda CBX behind you, as I bought one brand new out of the crate, in 1981. Life got in the way, I had to sell, and regretted it ever since....
Me he hecho fan de Dan, en plutoTV Mexico estan los episodios, y disfruto mucho verlos
Great to catch that tour … I’d forgotten you and your show…naughty !
Keep at old boy , not enough old iron on the road 👌
That was interesting ! Very demanding and you are handling it very well ! ENJOY!
love this show
Mr Short thank you for doing this !
Excalibur automobiles were made complete in Milwaukee WI, I had 3 different friends that worked there throughout the years. Literally 1000's of complete cars were produced there. They went out of business around 1990. See Dan, I taught an old dog a new trick and don't worry, I'm an even older dog than you..
@@rcorn79135 Perhaps, but in this case, the term in my opinion doesn't fit the product. I consider most T-buckets kit cars, Excalibur no. A.O. Smith was local also and did frames for cars and trucks at the time, why not take advantage of that local connection for production purposes ? I like Dan, but he's misguided this time around.
