dude for juggling a business school and keeping your fans happy you really make it look easy and we really appreciate the longer videos as well as the shorter skit vids
Really appreciate how you made learning about fixing, blending and buffing paint fun to watch. Along with doing the mods, thanks for the vids, Really enjoy what you put out. It inspires me to do projects and complete them. Have a good one!
These cars have a dyno plug on the driver side under the hood it’s a little plug with a wire looped on the end right behind the intake and if you unplug it it does the same thing without taking the fuse out and freaking the ecu out. They made it to not freak out the abs and wheel speed sensors👍🏻
This is the only channel I could actually sit and watch a almost hour long video with out skiping through or clicking off. I remember watching the video of you straight piping that red single cab on flakes and never thought I would be seeing you at almost 400k subs. This might be the first channel I by merch from lol. Ive told all my buddies about your channel and now we all watch your stuff. I hope this year you reach a million tom you are the only one who truly deserves it.
Tom thank you so much, theres obviously 10000 videos on blending paint but it wasn’t from you, thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are the best car TH-camr out there.
As a body man I have a little tip when sanding on slight curves. Bend your small skinny block to the shape of the panel then add the sand paper. It helps shaping a ton !
Another great video. I love how you dont only do the bodywork and fix the car but you take the time to explain to your viewers the process behind the labor. Makes it feel educational as well as entertaining. Keep em coming!!
Love what you do with every car! Yes power shifting with the foot to the floor and using the clutch and hoping it holds up. Honestly one of the best quick fix your black cleared paint tutorials i have seen. About to try it on my buick lacrosse in weathered areas. Hollers!!!
Im so happy you called out the trolls that talk shit about power shifting. You explained perfectly about doing it with a stock trans. Its never good, but super fun to do. Just expect to visit the junkyard quite often.
Absolutely live your content Tom. It has honestly helped me recently because I am on a long road of recovery from a accident on my motorcycle. There is something about seeing a guy following his passion that helps me stay positive
as a body mechanic, he is doing it mostly correct, obviously the spray can isnt the "correct" way but everything else is great. Nice job Tom! Love seeing ya get shii done.
He should have cleaned out the old filler too, being porous the metal underneath will be rusty and the repair will ultimately rust jack out after a year or 2.
After 2 years of watching u TOM I can say it’s all been fun this whole time but the world paying off frfr s550 that wild too see you with u deserve it tom
I did autobody and paint for over 20yrs. I see a lot of clueless idiots on TH-cam, trying to teach people how to do it. I'm honestly impressed, assuming you haven't worked as a professional autobody tech or painter, you did pretty good. Especially since you know you aren't necessarily doing it 100% correct, but just working with what you got, and trying to make it look decent. Pro tip... you can get clear blender in rattle can. Spray a quick light coat over the transition and it will help the new clear burn into the old clear. When done just right you wouldn't even need to buff, but realistically it will at least make it easier. 2nd Pro tip. Use 3M Perfect It 3 compound, and polish, with a waffle foam pad. Cost more, but way worth it.
I know its not super feasible for everyone but if u wet the floor of the shop it really reduces the amount of dust that transfers to the car during pain process.
Upol Blend #9 fade out reducer on the edges of the clear coat next time will help it burn into the existing clear. Doing the Same thing now on a bunch of rust on my old xB including the front of the hood. Great video as always my man 👌🏾
So on the right side where the airfilter is there is a little connection that you disconnect the car will have full traction off and if you don’t want to do that press and hold the traction button till something pops up on your dash advance track off
Quick tip for people at home : When screwing back a screw into plastic or wood always turn the opposite direction first to avoid the screw boring out more material and stripping the hole It will allow the screw to slot in the previous grooves and you can feel it click in a little when you find the correct spot
When screwing a screw back into any material, including steel and aluminum, turning it back a quarter turn aligns it with the threads. Long explanation for a common known trick
Suspension bushings are supposed to be preloaded when tightening. Meaning you need full weight of the car on them. Will effect life of the bushing and can effect handling if the bushings bind.
The only thing that you should have done was get a can of upol blend 9 lighty to melt in your blends. I used spray paint as well and used the blender. Works great. Otherwise, you did a fantastic job!
This is bad ass! i love the humor, attention to detail, and taking the time to do things (mostly) right! You just brought this car from a 6/10 to a freaking 11!
all you gotta do to turn traction control off is flip the switch once and it will say traction control off and then hold it for a couple seconds and it will turn advance trac and everything else off
Man I loved my S550. Had the 10 speed and it made 140 feel like 65. The active exhaust paired with a Corsa X pipe and a resonator delete sounded scary in a tunnel.
If your curios, from what I can see that’s a 15-17 high premium package with the technology package manual gt with gt350 front quarter panels and a gt500 front bumper
My guy i 100% really appreciate you and the hard work you put in to all your content i have mental health issues myself i appreciate tf out of you and the razzle dazzle content you make cuz it keeps me going, although my life is tough atm stay up stay safe drive fast dont die 💯
Ive always secretly liked the mustang. From 2004 on. Are simply impressive with just bolt ons. A buddy had a 2013 5.0 convertable. Thats would hold the corners and turns like i just couldnt believe. And with the manual trans you totally could control it. I wish i had the money to get one. But alas itll just have to stay a secret.
dude for juggling a business school and keeping your fans happy you really make it look easy and we really appreciate the longer videos as well as the shorter skit vids
hes got a buisiness? thats dope whats is it?
@@Daaavewilliams Thats like saying, "HE GOES TO SCHOOL!!?? WHERE IS IT!??
@@3n3ly7m9 what you do for work and where you work are 2 different things. Aint no one asking for location
@@Daaavewilliams his business is Tom's refurb 😂💀 no way you just asked that
@@O-Dub well im retarded my bad fucker😂
Tom's reactions to a properly fast modern car is great. Nothing can beat those laughs!
This doesn’t feel right… seeing him with a newer car😂😂😂
Yeah... It feels weird XD
Was confused if I should have clicked the video at first or not 😭
Yall don’t wanna see him drive nice things to?
Hahaha god damn sell out
@@str7em don't be a hater just because he has what you want
Really appreciate how you made learning about fixing, blending and buffing paint fun to watch. Along with doing the mods, thanks for the vids, Really enjoy what you put out. It inspires me to do projects and complete them. Have a good one!
Tom puts out hehe 😂
SICK BROTHA, keep it up🍺🍺🇺🇸
You guys need to collaborate fr I just recently discovered both of you
you mofos need to collab.
@@joserobles805same both great creators

Tom you should make this S550 the modern version of Noise Complaint! Like how Roadkill has General Maintenance!
Yesss now that’s an epic idea
Yesss now that’s an epic idea
Yesss now that’s an epic idea
That's what i was thinking but he also just spent over a week on the paint. Mabye if he could get a wrap to make it look like noise complaint.
@leviscurlock3986 That's exactly how they did General Maintenance if I recall, who wants to rust a nice new muscle car?!

Ahhh I love the car-care/refurbishing videos so much. Thrashing around is cool and all but the care videos are so nice and informative.
Tom thank you so much, theres obviously 10000 videos on blending paint but it wasn’t from you, thank you for sharing your knowledge. You are the best car TH-camr out there.
Always a good day when Tom uploads🥴

Congrats on the s550 Tom beautiful car you deserve it. Get some headers for that thing it will sound way better believe me
Got me looking on marketplace for salvaged mustangs with no knowledge on how to fix one.. and no money 🤣 🤣
Im loving these longer videos holy cow KEEP EM COMING
The car lineup is like my dream lineup, keep grindin nd doin ya thing folk 💯🏆

Another great show. Great content. Like your work on the Stang. You are right, that car will kill you. Keep having fun. Thanks for your team's effort.
To blend it. I take paper fold it in half. Don't make a crease in it so it doesn't lay flat. It'll blend very well
Try wetting you’re floor when painting helps catch all dust and debris from sanding and prepping also catches overspray just a future tip
Man I’m in my first year of collision repair everything he’s saying is all true loving the content
as a body mechanic, he is doing it mostly correct, obviously the spray can isnt the "correct" way but everything else is great. Nice job Tom! Love seeing ya get shii done.

Favorite part of the day is when tom uploads!!
I know its not super feasible for everyone but if u wet the floor of the shop it really reduces the amount of dust that transfers to the car during pain process.
What’s crazy I watched this man when he had 50k subscribers and just knew he’d blow up
Bro there's many days that I didn't feel like going on but the little lacks you gave me here and their enjoyment has made it all worthwhile so thanks
just found the podcast you did and cant say how good of a episode that was really wish you would start one with yours friends
watching tom be on his knees while wet sanding is just great 😉😉😉
Tom, thank you for making fun and interesting videos. Makes my day!
Im from Brazil and its a great channel that I like to watch, this guy is super funny and very intelligent . God Bless you Tom. Keren

This has become one of my favorite channels....like vise grip garage
So on the right side where the airfilter is there is a little connection that you disconnect the car will have full traction off and if you don’t want to do that press and hold the traction button till something pops up on your dash advance track off
Waited all day for this
Tom you flexed your body work abilities with the black paint man!
Im lovin' these long, in-depth videos with the new dash and this body work. So stoked for where your channel is going
Tom your awesome man and nice nova in the back ground!
Saw some of your builds on TikTok. Had to come here to watch more 🎉
The expression on my face while learning what bang and power shifting is.
Would say it all. Pain
Mustang looks very cool.
The look on your face when you fired up the new exhaust was priceless!

Destructive, yet elegantly informative, thanks Tom for teaching the youngins!
bro isn't kidding when he says best automotive content on youtube
I'm genuinely gonna use these tips in the future, i don't care for doing it right. as long as it looks good enough and is cheap
I have been wanting to buff my truck for some time and this just showed me how to do it.
I absolutely love these educational type vids mixed with the usual Tom shenanigans!!
Always an absolute banger video when theres a mustang in the thumbnail
Legend rock n roll
Suspension bushings are supposed to be preloaded when tightening. Meaning you need full weight of the car on them. Will effect life of the bushing and can effect handling if the bushings bind.
So glad to see Tom in a s550 that’s the dream car right there currently have a new edge haha ur doing so good thank you for the vids buddy
killing it these longer format videos, really enjoying them
toms channel is quickly becoming the best automotive content on the internet
Tom is the goat with mustangs I have one myself
A Mustang or a goat? Sorry, broke my brain for a moment there.
Lol
Love that my two favorite youtubers are uploading painting a car today. You and Vice Grip
The only thing that you should have done was get a can of upol blend 9 lighty to melt in your blends. I used spray paint as well and used the blender. Works great. Otherwise, you did a fantastic job!
I'm super happy you're showing your new pony some love😊 but I'm terrified what you might do to it later on😬😬😂.
I can’t even change a tire or a plug but I’m addicted to your shows. It’s literally that only tv show I watch. Kudos
The door slam and instant gremlin laugh is why we love you Tom
Literally waited all day for this video. Had a tough day and seeing this pop up in my feed, thanks tom. Cured my depression for 44:01. 😂
Thanks man, thanks for making this video. i really needed to get my mind off of things and laugh
🎶" cars in Mexico " 🎶 is going to stuck in my head forever 😂😂
Add a ported 2018 mustang intake and you'll make power above 7500 rpm and still make a decent amount up to 8000
Also you can go to some oreillys they’re paint shops and can put paint in a can for you. And upol now offers 2k clear which we carry
This is bad ass! i love the humor, attention to detail, and taking the time to do things (mostly) right! You just brought this car from a 6/10 to a freaking 11!

The most normal Tom's refurb video ever
Thank you for making it one video you did a great job its badass
Toms i see your videos from México y are a Big inspiration for me tanks for everyting and the lesson mecanics
Best content on lubetube. Def worthy of the only merch I’ll probably ever buy.
16:40 i personally just use a rag and some brake clean 😅 nice to see someone do it "professionally"💪🏻
Man I loved my S550. Had the 10 speed and it made 140 feel like 65. The active exhaust paired with a Corsa X pipe and a resonator delete sounded scary in a tunnel.
Can confirm x pipe with no mufflers is devilish😂 tunnels are glorious
There’s a blending agent that you spray in the clear and it burns the 2 clears together
he films infront of a tornado siren. i hope it goes off the skit will be amazing. love you tom thanks
You can always power shift with no cluthc after 1st dont need not special transmission just have to jave right rpms
Such an amazing transformation! Its exactly the mustang I've always wanted. This is why we watch you brotha👌
Watching this working at a body shop for a living makes this video even better
If your curios, from what I can see that’s a 15-17 high premium package with the technology package manual gt with gt350 front quarter panels and a gt500 front bumper
I absolutely love Mustangs and excited for this currently looking at a 69 fastback
Hands down the best car channel on TH-cam.
Thank's papa Tom. For the lesson. My dad been at the store for like ten years getting smokes....😢
Been watching your videos for a while and holy cow. This full length video is nuts! Love it
It’s insane watching you stay the same since 1000 followers bro, I’m happy as hell for your success
Congrats on the new black Pony.
Congratulations bro on the car
My guy i 100% really appreciate you and the hard work you put in to all your content i have mental health issues myself i appreciate tf out of you and the razzle dazzle content you make cuz it keeps me going, although my life is tough atm stay up stay safe drive fast dont die 💯
The irresponsibility is amazing, but when it comes to work, you make sure it’s of enough quality. Wish I was stupid enough to do this
Nice to see something abit newer on the channel would love to see you rat out some old hatchback
i love the new car if plan on going to 8k rpm pls get oil pump gears
Love the s550 video please make more 🙏
Yo Tom-you should make that New Edge a little drift stang. Would be sweet!
You inspire me to get my hands dirty thanks man. Wasn’t shit a year ago. Can do a lot now.
I have one of those "specific drag race" transmissions in my Ranger. Faceplated tkx behind a 351w. Shifts nice at 7k. Broke the 8.8 once already lol
Ive always secretly liked the mustang. From 2004 on. Are simply impressive with just bolt ons. A buddy had a 2013 5.0 convertable. Thats would hold the corners and turns like i just couldnt believe.
