Really looking forward to seeing it one color even if primer. Followed this build and watching helped me decide which welder to buy, went with Lincoln 140. Great job from Wellborn Fla..... John
Definitely looks great, I picture this one two tone with a matching bike in the back. Congratulations on your new welder enjoy 😊
Looking good Chad ! Be good to see this one finished and rollin down the road. 🤞
Excellent work Jolene. Steady hand and great content as always. 😍
Hey Chad. I found you just a little while ago. I've really been liking your content. I used to be a welder and still do some welding jobs here and there. I have an old 1949 Pontiac silver streak 2 door torpedo. I have cut out the floors some years back and had to put it in storage. I need to find a place to work on it. Im learning what your teaching me brother. It was a fun car and want to drive it again. Its got a 4 speed with a hurst racing shifter ford 9 inche posi with 373 gears a 427 tall deck with headers and dual 3 inch magnaflows with 4 way coil over spring and disc brakes. A couple of parts on the engine. Its flat black with flames and the stainless disc hub caps on it. Shes just a rat rod. No rust really but still a rat rod. So Im going to apply what your teaching me and refreshing me on. Just wanted to say hi and thanks.
I have been looking forward to this day to see this truck all in one color, even if it’s just metal.
Looks pretty cool A?
Lookout Fina!
Hey Chad, we need to take another Saturday and go visit Jim and see how he’s coming along with his Oldsmobile !
Exactly what I was thinking as I watched this .
Great job Chad! I have gotten my son interested and just picked up a used Lincoln MIG. We are ready to create. Thanks for the inspiration.
Tony that is so awesome, you got your kid interested in this kinda stuff. You should see if one of your local junkyards will sell you a car . Good luck and God Bless you and your family keep up the great work.
hi chad. you should always start at the top and work your work your way down,, that way you get 2 angles top and bottom,, there is to much sand coming out of the nozzle, you need to go in the circular motion and get a bit closer,, oh and get your self a blasting helmet having said that i still love your work and love the videos thank you so much for doing a good job anyway,, just some thoughts to help you.. i been sandblasting for 30 years now heheh GOD bless you both ps you need a longer blast hose
When I sand blast I always throw down a big tarp, scoop up, screen and reuse the sand. It takes a lot less sand that way.
Also it looks like he frosted the windows
@@That1776Show FRRROOST YOURSELVES........Then the faire dust flies
Hello how are you doing
I love how you make do with what you have and don't make any excuses. Keep it up!
Chad is a man of many talents. That's what is called building a truck on a budget by doing everything yourself! Well done Chad & Jolene!
great build chad ,like to see it in primer stage
The sand will be flying with a blast with Chad at the helm, and Jolene capturing the moment..whilst all of us is watching.
Happy to see the sand blasting process. Really interesting how it transforms the truck!
Today is the big day I’ve been waiting for. Now we will see what the COE really looks like.
The blasting certainly gives a better indication of what the final shape looks like. The two areas I’m not persuaded by are those headlights, to my eyes they would look better leaning back, like ‘39/40 Fords, ‘39 Willys and the “trunk” interferes with the proportions of the bed and makes it look short & dumpy. Just my two penny worth, other than that I’ve definitely grown to like it. A nice gloss black paint job and traditional red tuck ‘n roll interior, wide whitewalls to finish it off. A Hotrod Cab Behind Engine & a truly unique one at that 👍👍👍😎
Have a great weekend Chad, Jolene & all of the subscribers from England 🤞🇨🇦🇬🇧.
The truck is looking great. Can't wait to see some of the detailing you will be putting on it now that you are farther ahead with the main fabrication of it.
Love watching and learning. Thanks for the hard work you two
Looks great, let’s get it primed up. You should be wearing a hood and air supply. At least keep Jolene breathing fresh air.
I don’t think he’s using sand. But I do believe silica is extremely harmful to your lungs
You don't use body filler over paint, use filler first, than etch primer, than under coat etc
Health and safety issues 🤔
The first statement was about priming the vechicle, to which I was answering.
@@markgriffin4888 could be primed now, advantageous to prime the whole truck at this stage with an epoxy primer, protects the metal from re-rusting while you continue to work on it and body fillers have good adhesion to epoxy primer.
The project takes on a new dimension with all the rust and primer removed. Now all the grinding, filling, and sanding to get it ready for paint. Chad mentioned a road trip, how is Doug doing? Haven't seen much of him since the Jaguar engine rebuild. I found him very informative. Looking forward to tomorrow to see what's next.
Looking great….I would suggest installing 1” ball valve on airline where it connects to sand blasting unit they way you can stop airflow would save you running flat out to pick up the nozzle 🤣
Love you guys ❤️
Volume us messed up
@Bad Chad você é um grande artesão de carros, sou seu fã aqui no Brasil, abraços de um fã brasileiro hehe!!!
Just wondering how you are going to deal with the rust you have trapped between the new lapped sheet metal and the original body ?
And there need some holes to be drilled to let the water out.
Dont worry, once its painted you won't see it for a year or so. Then the bubbles will start.
I'm thinking maybe you need 2 separate mics. If one fails you have a back up. I have my speakers on full just to hear. Then the commercial comes on and blows up the speakers!
He does not understand about that or care .
@@trevor5929 Little to no sound here as well
You're doing a great job it really makes the vehicle look totally different everything looks streamline now I love it
Have you decided on a color red and black would be nice but it sure vehicle and it's great thank you
The moment we been waiting for looks great .on to the next chapter hope something new lol thanks guys
Looks even better sitting outside keep up the good work
Cab over really looking awesome...this was the highlight show..a massive transformation in a single episode😄😄😄👉
nice old compressor should do the job going to look great thanks jolene for the video
Seeing this cabover taking shape awesome! Love what you guys are doing. Good job Jolene. Camera work is superb you get right in there with them and we get to see everything. You're not leaving anything to the imagination. Great job
I can't believe I'm enjoying watching someone sandblast 😁😁
I don't know much about sand blasting but couldn't you spread like one of those big blue tarps out and roll the truck on it and that way you could recover your sand back. Crazy idea I know and I don't know if you could reuse the sand again. Any way great job you're doing there.
Recovered sand shot outside isn't worth the hassle of clogged orifices on your sandblasting unit. In the time lost removing debris to re-shoot takes a lot of screening time & your going to get clogged. It's cheaper to throw a new bag in. To recycle a guys only going to be clearing cloggedyour orifices all day.
Now if your using an expensive basting media like aluminum oxide. You'll generally be using a basting cabinet where the recycling can be pretty much automatically screen the debris.
Then the economics cheap silica sand. For a guy to screen 4 bags of $5 sand properly give that $25 a hr guys 2 hrs before he's back to work. For sand that will not cut as good as fresh sand. And another 1/2 hr clearing constant clogs. And so by the end of the day you've only gotten 2 hrs work out of a $200 day employee to save a $20 bill. That $25 an hr employee is costing a $100 an hr for actual work preformed now.
I know I've done a lot of blasting
Good question I have no idea but I don't think you can recover the used sand/rust
'sand blasting' (actually using crushed glass or aluminium oxide) for smaller things (up to motorcycle frame size) I've often used a cheap (camping) tent, makes it easy to collect the medium, I then simply run it through a lab grade mesh filter with a magnet in a tough plastic bag to remove most of the steel particles, a few quick shakes typically gives 7-9 parts reusable grit to 3-1 parts rubbish/dirt/rust flakes to be tipped out. The main issue is for each 'cycle' your medium gets a bit smoother (sharp points knocked off grit) so I tend to keep 'part used' grit for pre welding blasting of edges on ongoing projects, for final (pre paint) blasting I opt for new / fresh grit. FWIW a £20 bag of crushed glass typically gives £60 - £100 worth of derusting 😎
The man is a genius, that is the most beautiful truck I've ever seen
Wow, the sandblaster did its magic. Love how uniform the cars/truck looks now. Not a mash anymore. Keep on rocking. Thank you, take care and peace out!
I really enjoy watching your process. Part bodyman part mechanic part sculptor . A lot of things. You have a vision. It shows so clearly as you go. You see more and more.
Love how chad just throws his glasses down like "Damn Eyes" lol - Looks awesome guys!
First time I saw sandblasting. Always being taught new things. THANKS Joe.
Hello Chad, this is a record of the least amount of words you ever spoke in one of your video's, Good job on the truck, I really look forwards everyday to watch you work on such a cool build.
The blaster i know doesn't warp sheetmetal,he uses a really fine grade of sand,never blasts straight on,always at a angle,does sheetmetal later in the evening,he said if you're seeing sparks its to hot and can warp it.
What a difference a sand blasting makes. Looking good.
I’m looking forward to see what all gets done today. I enjoy watching your show every day
Hey Chad - don't ya just love it when some of the sand grinds between your teeth, the beauties of blasting. I vividly remember blasting a 32 Ford pick-up @ -20 below one night around midnight. Never forget it, blue metal flake and no doubt the whole thing was one big mud wagon. About 40 hrs. later ( with no sleep mind you) my boss and I blocked it out, 2K'd it, hit it again, blocked it, and I blew a nice cherry red paint job on it. We all understand it but few have a clue. I'm always tuning in, good work you guys. Jay from Wisconsin
Man this is such a badass build!! Love the content badchad & sparkles!!
It's sure does make the time fly buy. 56days wow. Also I can't wait to meet u lead east
Cool sandblasting machine. You got all the toys. Thank you for sharing
You might want to watch some pro sandblasters and see how they do it. I don't agree with the 'hang back and spray soft to avoid heating / warping the sheet metal'. It depends STRONGLY on the thickness of the sheet metal, and the curvature. These old cars have thicker sheet metal, and you use 18 ga. You do not indicate the grit size or pressure used. I would not use anything smaller than 30 grit for this kind of work. I am a BIG fan of sandblast for rusty stuff, although for a car, it would have to be something like what you are doing, and at the stage you are doing it. That sand gets into lots of places, including ball joints, etc. My advice is to pick a hot dry day and blast in the morning and prime in the afternoon. Overnight, blasted metal will get blush rust. If there is deep pitted rust, you have to do even more to deal with it, since the primer cannot cover it. Re: the 'finicky' sandblaster, you live in a wet climate, so you will have to cover your sand pot well when not in use, and pick a dry day to blast. But sandblast works a marvelous transformation on old rusty metal.
Dennis My older cars have thin sheet metal. Not sure whst country you get your old cars
The older cars (e.g. '40's, '50's) in America have MUCH thicker sheet metal than modern cars, which have ultra thin sheet metal. And 18 ga is fairly thick, although flat panels are still at risk. Curved panels are a safer bet.
All one color, your vision for this truck really comes alive.
Enjoyed the show tonight. With all the sand made me feel like I was at the beach just need a little water and a umbrella cooler full of drinks. Fina's always deserves a treat. Take Care
The Cabover is looking good, even just starting the bck end makes a big difference.
Do have any projects you are in that stage on that you could post? You strip the whole carr beforehand?
@@tobygathergood4990 blah...blah blah...blah blah blah blah. Uh tell us again how you would do it after you've finished filming your 2nd season on mainstream tv, and have 100,000 dedicated followers from all parts of the globe.
Wow the Cabover looks great all sandblasted up, one color makes a difference in showing the work Chad & Jolene have accomplished. Keep up the great work and there is still a lot of it before their finished. Mark Dutka
The sandblasting really does give you a chance to get an idea what it's going to look like finished amazing how tough that old paint and rust can be though
"Working as a team does not mean that everyone has to do everything, but rather being aware of the whole and the role of each one in this whole. "
One of the team members should have got poor Chad a funnel for his blasting media. Working like this is going to make him old. He needs a vacation
i've been waiting to see this truck get sand blasted and get it so nicely done and cool .
awesome job from the start, Just getting better every day it is going to need a wood trim interior with a nice grain like Oak or maybe Walnut
They know the right guy.
Man it looks good. I miss sandblasting. I sandblasted and painted for a lot of years.
I can feel the excitement in the air waiting to see the build all one color !! Bad dad and Jolene thanks again for yet another learning experience !!
Very unique but obvious 2 cars were put together. I highly suggest removing the hump off the 36' and take the lowrider styling headlights off the 49'. Would help with the cohesive truck body!
It's looking amazing! 👌 I love it Chad! Can't wait to see the finished product! ❤
Frankenstein! It really looks bad, chad. Love it! U can set a peterbuilt or mac engine on it! Unique for sure!
Looks great there guys! Poor Chad will be find sand in all parts of his body for a week :)
I like that u do everything in one go and it’s constant work 💯💯
Oddly, now that everything is blasted, it no longer looks like 2 stacked vehicles any more.
Yes it does.
@@tomgunn8004 with a raised center of gravity, on an old soft suspension,.. will this be the first custom going through turns, with training wheels.
Esse cara é um verdadeiro artista.
Milestone day for this build. I've had trouble with the download today - not sure if that's on me or on TH-cam.
Low sound ?
@@donalddesnoo5303 There were some audio difficulties, but I think we have all become accustomed to those. I had difficulty maintaining a constant download flow. I haven't had that problem with my new internet connection, but there's always a first.
@@DavidBrown-mn3iy sound was low had all way up outside fine 😘
Wow, just one thing to say... wow
Looks amazing
Chad, looking great!
You’re killing me though; running from the compressor to the end of the hose.
A deadman valve is $24.99 at your local Princess Auto. ;)
Every day, I watch your videos learned something new.Thanks a lot.GBY.
Looking great there @Bad Chad, and @Jolene has done a very good job with the camera in testing conditions
Now let's get the flood going! Thumbs-up 👍Chad and Jolene and now Ayden on this build!
Wow what a difference! Looking good guys.
Congrats on the 100k subscribers!! Let’s go for a million now. Your channel is one of the best!
That cab over loos like a beast. I hope you finish it up and get it on the road.
Watched this one on my large size TV and enjoyed this long awaited sandblast !
Chad! Wow! Have been locked in since the start of this project. I like your energy and you don't need to put a shut off valve on the blaster. Teach um how to run ole boy! Big Fan from Demotte Indiana. Been to Canada one time, next time I would like to see your art if possible. I will be supporting ya, need ah hat where can I get one? Will be doing my first gasser project with my Dad. You are an inspiration for our generation keep up the custom moon eye 👀 dude!
Wow, great results with the sand. Thanks
Finish up that welding and grinding and let's get to body work. 😁
even with no audio it was still great to watch
Love the look of anything sandblasted
The COE looks so good sandblasted. You can see the lines of the body so much better
Wow that looks awesome. Big difference in looks,you gotta be happy with it👍😉
Man, that sandblasting unit creates it's own weather pattern
Looking great Chad n Jolene wonderful job beautiful day there
Have been waiting to see it outside where you can stand back and see it properly. Looks the business for sure👌
Come on people why is their only 100k subs? This is BAD CHAD!!! The car artist that can literally take a couple junkyard cars from the '80s and a pile of steel and turn it into a one-of-a-kind piece of rolling art that looks like it was from the 50s or the 40s or the 60s or the 30s or the 20s or the, or the, or the... You all get the picture right? I wish his TV show didn't get canceled I dug it, I love the TH-cam channel as well but it's harder to keep up but fear not I will be binge watching all his vids cuz "I gotta see Chad build the Bugatti"! See what I did there huh? huh? Lol no but for real Chad is an absolute artist, now don't get me wrong he has built a few cars that are not my style but who cares they were most definitely someones style. The way he looks at a car and can just see what it could be, like seeing a freaking Bugatti when you look at a 1934 Chevy who can do that? Chad can that's who.
Excited for this right here. Been watching the playlist of this build. Awesome work
Looks great keep up the great work on this masterpiece and please finish it!
always a good day when a project gets sandblasted.
I was absolutely fascinated watching you sandblast. Ive never done it before but didnt have a place to try it. Thank You Chad for the experience. Thank You Jolene for the camera work, braving the "sand storm".
This is absolutely NOT the way you sandblast a car.
I left this video playing in my shop and I was walking around for 10 minutes thinking I had an air leak🤣
Truck is looking awesome. It really came together well.
Great camera work . And that’s the coolest truck I’ve ever seen. Priceless
It took me about 10 hours to do my 1958 Impala , takes a lot of time getting all those little places. I washed it down with phosforic acid to stop any flash rust and quickly prepped and gave it a coat of vinyl wash primer.
You need to rethink the body line from the door into the hood.
Wow my arms are sore just watching you, great job, have a great night ,God bless.
Sandblast a whole Vehicle in a hour & 30m awesome I’m glad I found this channel hey
wow sandblasting makes a really big difference ....you can really seeing it coming together now
Great job with the sandblasting Chad. Looks nice.
excellent to see the truck all one colour . The builder doesn't need to see it physically in one colour because the finished look is already in their minds eye .
Lol before the last video when he mentioned he was doing the sand blasting himself I thought he was sending it out to be done. I cannot believe he’s doing the work himself. Looks great! 👍
The truck looks awesome after the sandblasting. God bless the Hiltz crew.
Chad,Jolene...know what would be cool....if You had a stainless rod that went through the door hinges as pins and up to where they went up high enough to become side mirror brackets...it would also make the hinges look like They were there to preform a function.....just a thought
I can hardly wait to see that finished interior ! Too Rad !
Lookin' good ! Can't wait to see it painted,cool lines .
BEST PART OF THE JOB TODAY BRILLIANT
Seeing the truck put together with patina and surface rust was really amazing, but now seeing it being sandblasted presented the WHOLE truck at a WHOLE new level of amazing! My mind is blown! WOW!!!
Nice seeing it all one colour shows the detail
