    Literally spit out my coffee when you pointed to the trim and said "Someone on the internet is going to be screaming at their computer right now.." You are a legend!!! 😂😂😂 I vote for putting the doors on and revisiting it in Spring. Great episode 👏

      “Looks like you might have some oil in your water”! A classic comment from a classic vehicle restoration guy! I can hear the shop Forman saying it now from across the engine block.
      I’m reminded of a long ago Summer night at a gas station outside of Indianapolis. Mom, Dad, and three restless kids in a 1955 Chevy waiting for a diagnosis of an unknown sound coming out from under the car. Okay, I have no other way to describe the rest of this story than to recall another shop Forman, in another time and place, calling out across the garage bay in a clear, deep voice in reference to my dad’s car, for the mechanic to “Check this guy’s read end for grease!” It’s a phrase that will live in infamy in our family😊😮😅😂!

      Actually, I think that many are rediscovering this old art with lots of videos like this. Even the paintless dent removal vids help. I definitely learned a lot and used many "lost" techniques to repair my car, tho I'm still learning.

    Hi Kyle. That storm hit us hard here in Upper east Tennessee ,along with Virginia,North Carolina and Kentucky. No Power,water,Etc. Lost lives,Homes,Many roads,Buseness and Bridges. Had a tree hit the House right over where I fell a sleep in my chair. the credit goes to God has I should be Dead or injured. The House only had minor damage as well. Now it was a big tree. Sadly others were not so lucky. Great job as always Kyle. Give the Cats a hug for me. Liked and shared. All my very best.

    Dear Mr. Carter.
    👍👌👏 Well done, Sir. 2) I vote for cleaning the exterior of this car and putting on some kind of sealant so that it doesn't rust further. I also vote for cleaning all windows and replacing the defective/missing ones. If any, do the rest of the car next year.
    Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
    Best regards luck and health in particular.

    You do such amazing work Kyle. I would never have thought that it would take you such a short time to bang out the fenders to a presentable appearance.
    I don't know how often you peruse the TH-cam channels for information but I saw something the other day that I'd never seen before in my life (and I've been around a while).
    This fellow had a really frozen up motor that wouldn't turn worth a darn. The motor had been taken out of someone's car so that the body could receive a more powerful engine. The motor was left to the elements from the Early '60's to the Present and just left to decay.
    The motor was filled with 60 plus years worth of rust and water. He explained that "sure you can pour all sorts of chemicals, acetone, ATF, STP, kerosene and other oil based products which might clean up the interior rust inside the engine and free it up but he showed a really cheap and effective method, which he claimed "always worked" was far better and a H*LL of a lot cheaper.
    He flipped the exhaust manifold so that they wouldn't leak but said you could also plug them up with simple rags covered with duct tape or plugged up with molding clay.
    He then took a couple of gallons of ordinary white vinegar and literally filled up the entire engine with the vinegar. He let the White Vinegar sit inside the engine for a day (stating that a really good clean out could take 2 days) and then opened up the oil drain plug and let the rustiest, clot laden liquid you ever saw drain off.
    He then opened/ cleared all the exhaust manifolds, removed the spark plugs and put a breaker bar with a socket to the motor. Within seconds of attaching it to the nut holding the harmonic balancer in the front of the motor, he had that former boat anchor spinning freely. an episode later, he got the engine to run.
    Perhaps after you've let the motor sit with your used oil inside, you might want to drain if off again, let it drip dry for an hour or two after draining and try the White Vinegar trick? He explained that since the vinegar is a very mild acid, it eats rust by causing a mild electrolysis reaction and causing the rust to separate from clinging to the pure iron element by de-ionizing it.
    BTW you can also pour some of that vinegar on the rustiest areas of the body's exterior parts that have lost their paint then wipe clean and either linseed oil the metal or wipe clean and rattle can!
    * A second thought came to me. Clean up that license plate and secure it correctly to the bracket. Buy some cheap quarter inch plywood and/ or plexiglass and block in the car's open windows and doors so that no more rain, ice or snow gets in. If you really want to go bonkers buy a 30 x 20 blue tarp and wrap up the entire car.

    • @CarterAutoRestyling
      @CarterAutoRestyling  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I have seen a few of the "will it run" channels use vinegar to get engines to turn and run. The problem is that vinegar is an acid and unless it is neutralized it will continue to eat away at everything inside the engine, leaving it in worse condition than it was to begin with. As I showed in the last episode, this engine is already ruined, plus the transmission and clutch are broken so there is no benefit to getting this one to run.

    Again, Kyle, another example of true craftsmanship and understanding on how to read a dent and reclaim a panel with minimal effort. Years ago, I purchased a reprint of an old book on the art of metal bumping, more out of interest's sake than anything, but without being involved, my mind could not really understand it as a text. Now, I am reaching out for that book as I watch this and it is beginning to make sense! I guess in reality, it takes time and practice to gain this ability and you have it in large lumps. Respect young man from a 75 yr old avid Aussie fan of your work.

How much more basic can you get than with a bucket of soap water, rag and few simple hammers and dollys to make nice patina fenders! Keep up your natural born talent ! Thanks Kyle.

    Usually I find the super fast forward footage on youtube videos to be a waste of time to watch. But, watching what you do in fast motion is so informative, because it allows the viewer to clearly see how your actions directly affect the form of the panel. I think I'm actually learning something by watching you work, and it makes me want to test that by starting body repairs on my 1982 Capri, something I've put off for about a decade now.

    I have to admit, when I watched you bend that piece of trim out the way, I thought to myself, how uncharacteristic of Kyle to be so crass, but I was to enthralled with the doins to start hammering my keyboard in protest. But in the end when you did such a splendid recovery of the trim I was put at ease. My vote for what its worth is, there is way more content to be had from this disaster than 1 or 2 postings. you are right, some of those cross member cracks are going to be full gainers, but I have faith. I think stabilize it outside she goes well tarped and next spring we can stand to see it again. Be well.

I've had inside cats but they were inherited or rescues and they all lived out their days as my friends. Can't do any more rescues. Some of my varmints are fixed but not near enough.

    Smack it up, flip it, and rub it down, looks much better, it would be an injustice for anyone to call this 35 an eyesore now. Patience and time is really what it takes doing body work, it's better when you enjoy doing this, otherwise you get piles of bondo, rivets, and various pieces of aluminum or steel screwed underneath the bondo lol. I love the sarcasm and music.
    G-d bless.

    To straighten old hard body vehicles one has to understand metal, this guy gets it!

      Exactly what I was thinking! I made it 62 years without being got by red back spiders. Now I've been bitten three times in a year. Maybe I'm just getting old and slow but there's nothing like a good suck and a blow! 🤪

    Well done Kyle. A friend and I have repaired similar in the past. It always makes a person feel good once dents have been removed.

    I suggest slapping the doors back on, give the body a wipe down with oil so it survives the winter. Then paint your logo on the doors with something that will come off like house paint. Revisit it in the spring when the chicken truck is finished.

    I really enjoy the speed of the video during the repairs. It's fun to watch the metal take shape. As far as what to do with the 35 Chevy, man that a tough one because I don't know your situation. I'm much older than you so I've had to reduce my projects that I get into so I can ensure I get them finished. Your a young man so having multiple projects is still a fun distraction.

    Nice work Kyle! I'm always amazed at your skill in knowing how to work the dents out of things. A lot more knowledge needed than just getting a big hammer and start wacking. The old 35 has seen better days, the wood is the major problem. But it's still a cool old car. Looking forward to seeing what your plans are.

      Thanks Ken! As you know, dealing with the wood in these old Chevys is a massive job!
