I don't think you can truly appreciate how much work goes into a build like this. Really looking forward to the finished product. Pablo is his usual stoic self.
Growing up in the 70's I'd get kustoms Hot Rod magazines. With the likes of Barris, Jefferies, to many KeWl Kar Kustimisers to mention. Every time I watch you Brent it reminds me of stepping back in time . Thanks for the Videos Always can't wait to get the next Halfass Video no matter the content. Can't wait to see those finished crests ! Godspeed
Brent you are like a one man production line. Loving the car with that long hood it reminds me of the first comic book Batmobile. I wish you would wear a mask when sanding.
It's insane the amount of work you get done. A few weeks ago the front end looked hopeless and now it's in primer. You and Pablo get it up the good work 👍
I work with wood, nuts and bolts and screws mostly. Bought a welder. My first time welding, a "gallows" to hang my pigs after dispatching. Practiced for hours. Boogers! boogers! boogers! (And spattering) Then, I got the temp and feed dialed in. Man, what difference! Looks and feels much better. Patience, slow and steady with "U" movements wins. Gallows is strong. Will hang the gambrel secure safely. Bottom line: You make it look easy. It ain't! Lol! Practice makes perfect. (At least acceptable)😂
I'm so glad you showed cleaning your body work tools. Filler stuck on my tools makes me hate body work, and I've moved to disposable tools as much as possible. I've thought of sanding off old filler, but never did it. Maybe I will in the future.
Rims n white walls hold'n up da car n da hood, modify'n da hood, body work'n da hood, filler'n da hood, prime'n da hood, Pablo n Buddy's da dawg boyz n da hood.
Dammm, this RumRunner era is exactly what I like... I was watching the thumbnails but waiting to be surprised later. Heading backward now and digging the music! I remember once in the early 90's we spotted this 34 abandoned Chevy something and snooped it out that had a small block and 12 bolt set up already and tried finding the owner to buy it but had no luck.
Great contant Brent. I thought for a moment you were going to run the putty knives through the English Wheel, that would have taken the cake! Cant wait to see the Dodge come together after a long winters work! Appreciate you mate!
Not sure what day you recorded this but it fits in nice with a kickass Monday. You were working it hard today. Thanks for sharing. Like, share and write a letter to a friend. hehe
Don't down yourself you're awesome one of the best on youtube you never perplex me I love everything you do and don't feel the need to make suggestions because you tackle the task at hand so fast
I always liked a lot of Bondo and then sand with a long board..it seemed to work better for me. The car is looking awesome. I can't wait to see it finished.
Just my two cents, Brent,, the longer hood, and the other body mods, give it a unique character,, I see this rod,, and picture either front fender mounted spare tires, or a continental kit on the rear bumper with filler panels from body to bumper, and I keep envisioning chrome steel wheels and/or fender skirts…. So far, very kool build .
This is turning into the meanest looking rod of it's era (40's?) Brent. The front is big man. It would so greatly suit the 8 liter Viper V10 with a seven speed auto. Or a nice LS 😅 . The hood line is more like like a Kenworth than the pointy car hood. I like how the redesign has ended up looking ! As means as Cinderella's step sisters. Just plain nasty😈🎱
WOW I think it looks freaking awesome. Dang the Long Hood, Grill and fenders with those lights looks so cool. Our 35 Dodge is gonna make a great drone video!!!!!
Hi Brent. This is why i love your show. Your "breaking all the rules" style takes me way back and jea i kinda miss it. I done some crazy stuff. And still i see new stuff watching you. Looking good.
Man o man is she coming along Brent! Often we just want to get it done but the journey is a big part of the ride! look'n Great! LOve the vids! All the best! be safe ..untill next time!
I was wondering whether or not you'll have the trim pieces for the hood re-chromed or just polish them out because they still look "mint" from where I'm sitting....😊
Excellent video Brent :) , Pablo The Supervisor Dog 🐕 too also come together nicely to and take lots work yes agree ! I think tires are nice on car plus hood prime up for paint too!
Enjoy your fabrication skills. You may enjoy Rat Rods for Africa. He has designed a unique suspension set up using sideways mounted bags and torsion bars for a 39 Hudson pickup. His fabrication skills are damn good also.
I've been up in the air about the front fenders but after looking at other 35s, and seeing that that was the prevailing style of the period, it looks right. Especially when the cars are painted and with a running board. Better wear a mask mister. You'll need to breath later. 😛
..cool that you hooked up with Mortske at the Lonestar Roundup.....he spoke kindly of you, Brent.....also hoping you made it home without too many issues.....
Brent, no matter what obstacles come your way, you always sail past them with ease. This build has proved my point and then some!! Pablo is right on top of things, helping to maintain the building process and patiently waiting for a treat or two and looking for some attention as well!!
With the hood dunish it draws the build nearer to completion . All your work so far speaks reams about you as a fabricator , when you say it looks good on film you fall short of bringing light to the amount of changes you have braught about and the work you have done to accomplish this . Keep on trucking , Stuart in Ontario ............................
Nice job on the hood Brent. I hope you and Ester got back nice and safe and have tons of memories from being out on the road and from Lonestar.. Yall come back now.. haha
The new hood has really come together to anchor the front sheet metal into a cohesive, stylish unit. I would love to hang around behind a bunch of classic MOPAR guys as they discuss the various aspects of this car. It is beginning to look like it was designed that way, and you really can't ask for anything better than that. With the amount of welding and patching done on those panels, it is a miracle that they shaped up with the minor amounts of filler actually used. Fantastic craftsmanship in the fabrication.....
This is hard to watch knowing that you lost all of this. I think of all the hard work and love that you put into these works of art. You’ll come back stronger buddy . Fire has no heart .
Wow! That was a shitload of work but it looks absolutely perfect. Very nicely done Brent. Impressive does not even begin to describe the hood. Thanks for taking me along with the process. I always enjoy your videos.
This is the best hot rod channel on You Tube. Honest and entertaining; I've learned (and still learning) so much. Your wife and the dogs are integral to the videos. I look forward to each and every video, some are better than others but they're all good. Thanks Brent (& co.) I'll be waiting for the next one!!!
Back when I was a sandblaster we used to to duct tape the chrome cylinders on hydraulics by putting the tap on inside out and only stick it to itself. Made it much easier to remove after .
May sound crazy but late 40's to early 50's gm cars are actually fairly light. I would love to see a body and partial frame, repowered by a 3800 front wheel drive set up. Not really a hot rod set up, but a very cool cruiser idea.
Goulash/Patches is lookin' magnificent! Not sure if you caught my crazy idea, but for its namesake, I'm can a swirly reddish pattern with streaks for the paint job, even expanding on the ornamentation of the sides of the hoods. Maybe a solid sparkly color would be best, and pop significantly, but imagine layers of darker red to lighter pink moving upwards, with swirls and streaks flowing from front to back! Challenging, but it certainly would be even more unique -or an outright bad idea....!
With all of your years of knowledge and experience I think you knew what you're doing. So I don't understand why anyone is trying to tell is trying to tell you what you should or shouldn't be doing. Besides it's your car. Not theirs. You do amazing work. Keep it up 👌
Have to admit. That came out nice. Alot of work there. I have the same 8 inch DA. I used those orbital flat files. The 8 in DA is way better. I flung my share of filler in the past and those bag busters(as I call them) are the best for getting a panel straight fast. I did a 63 caddy convertible and put 13 gallons of filler into the rig!! Lol. That was what 95% of the work was done with... of and the car was painted gloss black after. Lol.
Evening Brent, sometimes when I'm feeling a little lazy, I watch your latest video, which gets my lazy butt out of the recliner and in the garage working on my 31 Ford Coupe...you are doing a fine job on that once yard art Dodge!!
Pablo is keeping a close eye on the hood body work, he wants it done right! 🙂
I don't think you can truly appreciate how much work goes into a build like this. Really looking forward to the finished product. Pablo is his usual stoic self.

Had to go back and watch again. So sorry for you loss. Hope all ends well keep the faith.
After all that work “you only think it looks good?”. Brent, it looks fantastic, this build just got a whole lot better. 👍👍
Good work and good music. Watching 👀 👀 closely
Brent I see old crusty is starting to disappear slowly but surely. Man the hood is looking great. Thanks for sharing your content and take care.
Seeing your videos I realize how much work this is in fact. Greetings from Amsterdam and many thanks for all your great videos!
I actually laughed out loud Brent when you said buggery involved while sticking your finger in the cowl hole!
I'm so glad you showed cleaning your body work tools. Filler stuck on my tools makes me hate body work, and I've moved to disposable tools as much as possible. I've thought of sanding off old filler, but never did it. Maybe I will in the future.
Ian the smily and happy go lucky fabricater. I really enjoy watching him work and do his best on what he does. God bless
The hood is turning out nice. Bet the car is going to look fantastic in paint. Pablo will look like a 30's gangster in the passenger seat.
Rims n white walls hold'n up da car n da hood, modify'n da hood, body work'n da hood, filler'n da hood, prime'n da hood, Pablo n Buddy's da dawg boyz n da hood.
As soon as you took they daft trims off and put they other wheels on, instantly transformed 🤟🤟
Piece of cake….for you. Walter Chrysler would be proud. Glad to see you already sent the hood to your paint man. Thanks for sharing, Brent. 👍
As I said earlier, that long Hood looks spectacular. Just adding those few inches really adds to the look of the whole rig.
Awesome she’s looking bloody fantastic. Really enjoying this car. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Brent or persistance is inspiration. Chewing off little obtainable goals each day for checking offall the boxes! Looking good one piece at a time ❤️👍
The hood now looks original to the car ! Great save, coming out super as always.
I see Pablo is making sure his pet human is doing the work properly!😁
I forgot the younger ones name!
This is going to be a really great ride!
The more reserved guy is Buddy 🐶
Tremclad is a great sealer. This is super cool. I just decided to call this car a Brent.

Cheers uncle welcome back, enjoy being back and going to work,
The white walls suits her well!
Thanks be blessed,
Ciao ciao
I love sandblasting. It's so satisfying. Same with pressure washing,wire wheeling All the stuff it seems like everyone else hates 😅
I love it. Regular working man’s hot rod
that long bonnet gives the idear that there is a straight eight under it
Hutchins hustler longboard sander ,they are the bee's knees!
I bet you never get done cleaning up the shop, but have some really cool things to show what come out of the messing up the shop. Hood looks great!
I can see huge improvement just with the hood and side on This car is gonna look amazing when she's all said and done.
Don't down yourself you're awesome one of the best on youtube you never perplex me I love everything you do and don't feel the need to make suggestions because you tackle the task at hand so fast
Like 326. Excellent progress !
The thumbnail nail is awesome
Brent a true hot rod guy keep building these classic rods love the vids 🤠🤜🚘craigger
Watching you work I thank back to when I helped a friend of mine work on his 36 Ford he passed away a few years ago
I always liked a lot of Bondo and then sand with a long board..it seemed to work better for me. The car is looking awesome. I can't wait to see it finished.

Looks great can hardly wait to see it all in primer. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍
Coming along, nicely, Brent. I see Pablo doesn't seem bothered at all, by the dust, flying around.
A labor of love, nice job Brent. 👌 Be good and stay safe. 👍
Car came a long way s. He's showing us we can do the same things
Awesome work. Car looks great.

Thanks for making my Monday better….appreciate the videos.
There is something so satisfying when sand blasting. Seeing the rust going away and exposing fresh metal. Awesome!
I was wondering whether or not you'll have the trim pieces for the hood re-chromed or just polish them out because they still look "mint" from where I'm sitting....😊
Really starting to take shape! One more bite! Thanks for sharing!
I'm very happy you did some primer paint. It makes the car look like it's progressing well.
Looks good with some paint on Brent. We’ll done. Keep it up.
Amazing with what you started with
Excellent video Brent :) , Pablo The Supervisor Dog 🐕 too also come together nicely to and take lots work yes agree ! I think tires are nice on car plus hood prime up for paint too!
Bravo monsieur good job j'attends la suite
I think you did a fantastic job on the hood. Great job, that was alot of preparation and time consuming but awesome job bro.
Aloha from Ohio
Enjoy your fabrication skills. You may enjoy Rat Rods for Africa. He has designed a unique suspension set up using sideways mounted bags and torsion bars for a 39 Hudson pickup. His fabrication skills are damn good also.
Sand off the filling knives before you start... yep, every tiem!

That one piece in primer = world of difference
You made that hood look and open and close like it came on the car
Always the best. looks like factory work. How many people will look at this hood and never know it isn't factory? Paul in Ohio..
Awesome car! My parents had a 37 Plymouth business coupe back in the 80’s . I learned how to drive in that car.
With the hood dunish it draws the build nearer to completion .

Am I the only one..that finds the sand blasting extremely satisfying..to watch..brent your killing it..its gonna be nice when its done..
Nice job on the hood Brent. I hope you and Ester got back nice and safe and have tons of memories from being out on the road and from Lonestar.. Yall come back now.. haha
Bodywork seems a lot like drywall mudding. More on the floor than the panel. Awesome job,it's lookin' good !👍🇨🇦
Coming along nicely.......I see paint by mid summer......
Looking beautiful! I can hardly wait to see what's next!
Brilliant work, your explanations are very helpful.
Watching the magician ...very cool!!!
and the Magic keeps getting better
Great job, would look beautiful clear coated in bare metal, on dark dark metallic cherry👍
I couldn't agree more.
The new hood has really come together to anchor the front sheet metal into a cohesive, stylish unit.

You crack me up when you do bodywork everytime because you love it so much! Not!!! 🤣 Looks good brother. 😉✌
Looking great 😃👍🎉

the long nose of a super cool car, almost finished, great work again, a pleasure to watch
Wow! What a hot rod. So cooooollllll.
Really coming together, your a hard worker!
Hi Brent! I can't wait to see the rest of the paint job!
Awesome content
Love all the hard work
In search of all smooth lines . . . . palm smooth
Starting to bring wow out of it
