76 gmc motorhome grill part 2

Finally finishing the driving lights and custom grill inserts on the aluminum grill for the GMC Motorhome. Made a wood buck to press expanded aluminum into 3D inserts and install quad driving lights to really light up the road safely. I don't think driving in the dark will ever be a problem even on the darkest roads.
Here is the 3m adhesive I used, its not the cheapest but it goes a long way and the product is top notch

You're beyond talented and the truck idea is uber resourceful.

I love your ingenuity, the grill looks cool great video!

Billy Mcentire thank you.

[@backwoodsbungalow9674]

Thanks for taking the time to film and edit your custom grill project. I was impressed by your ingenious methods to form and shape aluminium. How about adding all your GMC videos to a playlist.

[@getoutgadabout3423]

Thanks for the suggestion and watching, I made a playlist for the gmc , all of my videos so far pertain to it in one way or another. I'm still new to this TH-cam stuff.

Great production, and I learned a few new things. Thank you.

[@getoutgadabout3423]

As long as what you learned is my videos don't stink I'm happy to help lol

[@evilswingythingy]

That really looks awesome brother... love the style. Keep it coming we all got lots of time now to watch your videos lol

[@getoutgadabout3423]

Firebird for sure. my work has us on standby until this calms down. I was going to make Tubby my isolation room away from my family if they kept us working. . Stay well.

I’m not sure a tire press would be Covell aproved🤘🏻

Still happen to have the original grill? I just purchased a 73 with front end damage. Your new grill looks great. As much as I would like to make one, I would rather get the coach put to use this summer. Thanks!

[@getoutgadabout3423]

Yes I do have it. It’s not in the greatest shape though. If you are local NJish you can have it. Not something worth shipping though.

[@gregorypettaway1825]

Doug love you video would you be willing to sell me a grill. I have a 1973 gmc

How expensive is the 2 part epoxy your using, and the special dispenser? and are your caulk/epoxy roof seal lines straight?

[@getoutgadabout3423]

Captain Sam Wilson the tubes of adhesive are about 30$. The dispenser was 60 I think. Not the cheapest. I didn’t use it for the seams. I used it to seal up the a/c holes with aluminum panels. The seams I’ll be using the heavy body seam sealer. I’ll be showing how to make good straight lines with it soon. It’s an upcoming project.

[@getoutgadabout3423]

I put links to the adhesive, like I said not the cheapest but you wont have to worry about stuff coming loose

[@captsam54]

@@getoutgadabout3423 Was talking to a professional GMC motorhome painter yesterday and he uses something he called Seems? Sems? I will have to research it.. But he says to put it on thin and then use lacquer thinner w/ your finger to smooth it out etc. and it works without overfilling the seam.. and also allows it to flex with the body more..

[@getoutgadabout3423]

Captain Sam Wilson I’ll look into it as well. Thanks for the info.
