    I get so much inspiration from you. I suffer from anxiety and depression... It's hard to get enough energy to get going. Just by looking at you helps a lot. Thanks to everyone on the show 🙂👍🏻💪🤘

    Chad don’t worry. You have not messed up anything. That is a great one off custom car/ bike hauler. The only way you can mess up any car, is when you are finished with the car, you stand back and look at it. If you don’t like it. Then you messed up. On the other hand if you like it, then you did the right thing. This is still America, not the United States of TH-cam Opinion. Even mine. Keep up the amazing custom work. People just enjoy the process, and support Chad.

    This car is going to be like the blue one that he chopped! He goes on about saving the patina it just ends up looking like a patchwork quilt. He did a good job of matching the paint color but I could see the weld on the right back side of the roof. Not too impressive, especially cutting up a pristine 75 year old survivor. It looks as if there's plenty of useless junk scattered in the yard to cut up I to patchwork crap.

      Stop whining. If you don't like the channel go hate somewhere else. It's that simple. Plenty of old cars in the world that can be restored. And you really think about it. If he don't like what he has done it can always be put back together. Maybe not so much as original but damn near perfect. So go whine somewhere else!!

      @petezappa8748 they make me laugh too but not the way they do you. The conversations and things they do are awesome. I watch cause i enjoy the everyday content, the real, the fuck ups, the fixes, the cool shit he builds. I'm sure there are way better custom builders out there and even Chad would admit that but you can't deny the skill he has with just the tools he has. Alot of other builders may have bigger, fancier shops and tools than he does but he is showing you that you don't really need all that to customize or build a car. And so what most of his cars don't get finished. But I'm sure he can cause he's done it. They make money off the views on here. The more views the more money. And they explained a few times that going through every detail on a car like the tedious stuff don't bring in alot of views. So you have to ask yourself as a owner or whatever doing these TH-cam videos do i want to make more money by just fabrication or do I take less when I'm doing other videos showing the slow tedious shit? And he's said many times he's not a mechanic. And when they started doing TH-cam he was building these cars by himself. With limited tools and shit like that and building more cars than guys that have 5 or six guys on a team. But you watch what you wanna watch.

    This car could be so much more than a bike carrier. The opening in the back could be used to slide in different modules. You could have a module that’s a back seat and trunk, or another module that’s a camper kitchen for long road trips, another module could be just a trunk but nicely divided for carrying lots of gear. Just an idea that I hope you use. Love the build. Great fun to watch.

  • @birchgerke140

    It is so good to see Chad's creativity . These are CUSTOM builds. This is not a restoration site. To take a car and recreate it into something new and different and have fun doing it , is the point. Henry Ford already built the first version.

  • @skipcantor868
    @skipcantor868 ปีที่แล้ว +40

    This is for Jolene. Don't let Chad read this. LOL Will you please tell (suggest) to Chad to build a light weight table (easy to move around) for some of the measuring, cutting and fabricating light material. He is on his knees on the concrete way too much. He will pay for it later. Knee pads are a pain, so why not try not bending over so much and make some of work less stressful on your body. I do that in my own garage and what a relief. Put a bin on it for markers, a tape measure, etc. so when you are working at the table you won't have to go search for where you left those items last time used. He can also get a few dense foam pads to leave around the floor when he is working down there. Way easier on the knees which were not designed to be on hard surfaces like concrete so often. Just thinking about ya!

    • @skipcantor868
      @skipcantor868 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Jolene, if that doesn't work, just have someone sew foam knee pads in all of his pants. He'll never know. 😂

      Believe me the old saw of "Bodymans knee" is a truism. I had them prior to replacements. I think Chad works too much on the floor. Atable will save him much pain later on.

  • @shinemine6135
    @shinemine6135 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love this build
    I think you need to get some short black ratchet straps that you can attach to the front forks where the front fender mounts...so you can't see the straps from outside the car.
    Also flame the wood floor with the torch and oil it to give it patina.
    Awesome work.
    Cheers Tony

  • @AlHasenfratz
    @AlHasenfratz ปีที่แล้ว +3

    The front wheel chock may work better if it were more like the "Pingel" style chock with some horizontal bars that eliminate the side to side wobble when the bike's in place. It also makes it way easier to place the straps when the bike will stand there by itself. Just a thought. APH

      I disagree 100 percent. Chad is the owner, and the Boss. It is his money, and he wants everything done his way, which is how it should be. He should control everything, because he is spending his money to make it all happen. It is not a partnership, Chad is the Boss, and what he says goes. If it was me I would do the same thing, he pays them so they do what he says and what he wants.

    I love this project and you and the crew do a great job, you might consider making an adjustable chalk and make sure your length is long enough. For instance, a Harley Sportster has a short wheelbase and skinny tires while an Electraglide would have a long wheelbase and fat front tire. Anyways keep up the good work Chad you have a great artistic eye.

Honestly, it turned out kinda cool. Thankyou Chad for a weird feverish dream that has me questioning my latenight youtube viewing and spicy snack bedtime routine.

    Well, beings you've gone this far. Slide a wide board to the middle and put the strips on one side together. Main thing is having center wide and supported for the weighted tires on center. The sides won't be used for anything, unless you put a 4 wheel on and still there'd be less weight on one side for them 5" strips.

    Just wanted to share 1 belly buttons worth of noise. I really like where this is heading. I haven’t liked all your creations but this one looks well proportioned and a great mod to an otherwise pretty ugly older Ford (front is beautiful , back was pretty poorly designed, it really suits the modified lower back shape). The jag roof shape also adds a few good lines to the fords shape and looks like it was designed to fit there. As for the bike carrier, it’s an interesting idea and will produce a unique vehicle, if it doesn’t work out, swapping it in future years by welding in a boot/roof would be very simple. So keep going. Let’s see it fully realised.

    Hi, just an idea for location of the cars spare wheel. When sheathing the back two sides, how about making a round recess for the spare wheel to sit in and held in place with a leather belt strap. 😊😊😊
    Cracking content as usual, looking forward to the next video.
    Cheers Rich1899 from WALES

    Are you going to be hauling the same bike every time, or are you building this to haul various bikes? Just so you know that some bikes have wider tires than others, and a longer wheel base,plus the fork tubes on some are also in different positions.The way you are putting the braces on the chalk should be positioned out away from the tire on each side forming a V like shape.This way when rolling the bike onto the platform the tire would hit on a brace and automatically force the wheel to the center. Just my opinion, but it is a valid concern.

      Just make a flat floor and use one aluminum motorcycle ramp to get the bike in and out.

    • @FAB7362

      Yes. That would work a treat. Just wheel the bike in. No lifting, no slide on tray. Winner , winner. Chicken dinner.@@rhllnm

    Hi Chad. I think it might work better if you got rid of the rear rollers on the platform, and instead added rollers on the angle iron right at the spot where the angle changes.

  • @bradleymckay365
    @bradleymckay365 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    You should never strap it down with the kickstand and only strapping the front. A cycle should always have 2 upfront and 2 in the back.

  • @RonnieLeslie-cj1yj
    @RonnieLeslie-cj1yj ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Why not design an electric cable system to assist pulling the ramp in the car. Might save a back. Just a thought. Also why not use some C channel to run the bike on in the middle of the ramp.

    That slide in/out platform is going to be heavy to use. Why not just put in a ramp you can run the motorcycle up and down. Looks like a lot of work for nothing. It’s really not very appealing. Just stop and close in the back.

    To secure the bike properly, you should have the tires in a track so when riding on a rough road the tires stay where they are suppose to be.

    Hi chad on the bike hauler you are building have an idea kicking around in my head not sure what you think but anyways what about a couple " v " style boat rollers not that much at princess auto mount one on each side in back of car then weld a piece of angle iron on the bottom of the cradle Nate built on each side upside down so the v will correspond to the v in the rollers might make it a bit easier to roll bike and cradle into the car also made of rubber and wont rattle watch your video everyday and the wife says hi to fina
