Webb is top notch, and I love the look of those Dagmar's!
he's the best!
Looking awesome, and thanks for doing that with the kids!
Your pneumatic bench vice is one of the coolest tools I’ve ever seen.
thank you Daniel, built it 30 years ago and have never had to do any maintenance or repair
Loved your video so much, I watched it twice! So happy yer back on the “ Dirty Dozen “. I’m on chemo now and the infusion center I frequent has 12 nurses that are now my angels. I’ve given them the nick name “ The dirty dozen” , and they treat me like family now. I love them and get a hug or 2 when I get there and when leave, just like family. Anyway, keep on keepin on my old friend Ken!😊
im sure you are in good hands with "your" dirty dozen.. thanks for watching
I can tell the difference in enthusiasm for the creative fabrication on the Dirty Dozen over the resurrection process of the Dodgillac or the Phoenix.
The rebuilding of those other two projects was well worth Your efforts, better than ever before.
Thanks for bringing me along on the journey Ken.
Best Wishes to You, Your Family and Friends.
yeah.. I kept my chin up but I wasn't having a good time haha

Waylon, if it was easy we'd hire them Girl Scouts when they come by selling cookies !
I like it when you say what you're thinking, then laugh at yourself. My brain entertains me a lot, too😂
My dad called them Dagmars. I called them Dolly Partons. (She's two of my favorites.) Great video Waylon!
Couple little l e d lights holding those spoons on would sure light up your dagmars !!!!! Love em I’m drawn to them too ! Peerfect sizing! What are the headlights off of they are way cool and I’ve never saw any like them in my 45 years in the business? Have you watchted “pudding creek hot rod shop “ if not give him a look you and him might make a deal of making a little music for each other Ol pudding is pretty talented dude with his hot rods and gassers and a hec of a machinist to boot !!! Shore do appreciate ya keep it up 👍
the lights are original from this truck but they were mounted sideways on the grill shell before...when I dropped the grill down, they hit the fenders so I moved them to the fenders
@ they’re definitely unique don’t think I’ve ever saw a headlight lenses like that , but I shurely do like 👍 it
I am lovin' the custom kitchen-aid design! You never cease to amaze me with your ideas.
hi Ken thanks for the time with you in the shop lookin cool man comin on now cheers
Waylon ! Watching Your craftsmanship !!! is ALL The “ music “ I need !!!!😊👍
A custom cow catcher between those dagmars would be awesome!
You truly are a master at imagineering !
Great Wallyworld finds. Looking good. 👍
brilliant work with the dagmars... with the stainless steel bowls and all that.. really well done.... cool art...
thanks man!
Looking good and another great video 👍👍
The side view is Cool , now i understand what your seeing 👍
The front view is amazing 👍👍
thanks Steve
Mr. Wire, I greatly appreciate all the work you put into these videos. I find them quite entertaining and informative. I wish you nothing but the best! Now get back to work! 😂
Those look like they are glad to see you.
as I'm glad to see them!
Your creativity is protruding lol Looks good to me.
LOL thanks Terry
Looks Awesome bud.
I feel like I just came home from the circus, what a great feeling !!
LOL watching the monkey?
@@1963impala2drWaylonWireThen watching you eat an elephant, lol!
It's been a while, but it used to bug me to remove chrome parts like those headlight buckets and fret that the rust would creep around the edges and start rusting the chrome. So I took to wire wheeling the backside, then two coats of spray can primer, then two coats of black. When I changed the bulb, my ocd said "Now that looks ok!" I hope that does not kick in your ocd...it may be contagious...
But I'm on the Gulf Coast, where rust keeps growing. In your neighborhood, it might just be patina..
Sure must feel good getting to create again instead of repairing. You know what I mean,the fun is back.
LOL - love it someone's got to suffer better YOU the ME - nice, cool love the out-tro front clip show and tell = lovely looking forward to your next reveal.
Waylon you should add the old bumper the truck had to those Dagmars it will make it look even more pretty
na, the 30's bumper just doesn't go with the 50s bumper parts
Good job looks good
Stainless bowls were my thought before you got them. The brass centers are the cherries ! Looks great!

Looking snazzy lol😊
Sweet.
Very enjoyable video thank you very much for fine entertainment
Glad you enjoyed it

I like what you are doing Ken! Dare to be different
t'weren't another other way to be!
Looks good almost rated R
rated R for "Rat Rod" !!
great job waylon
Appreciate it!
Haha, Cy-goggled, dang, my older brother used to say that, ( we lost him in 93, on Labor Day, my oldest son’s birthday too ), he’d been 67 on March 13 this year, I’ll be 65 in about a week and a half. Anyways, good deal bud, good deal! Haha, Bullet points, first thing I thought of, that’s to do with shooting too! Dagmars is better though!
hey youngster..thanks for watching.. I'll be 73 in a week
Put some tassels on those "Dagmars" and name the truck "Lap-Dancer". LOL
shhhhh
Looks good, it was worth the hassle!!
hours of hassle.. .but yep! thanks
Hey Waylon, why don't you just paint the little bowl inserts?
why would I paint them... I want to polish them
"Fabrimakatin"; I always thought it was "Fabricoble" 😂. Ya know, a 1/16" is a thousandths to a Fabrimakater.
or to a redneck with OCD
would it have been easier to take 1/16 off the other one
probably but you wouldn't have been nearly as entertained lol
I'm surprised that you don't have an outside Woodburner forced air into your shop. But that is what my brother has in his shop, and my neighbor has in his shop. It surprises me that you don't have one with all those fruit trees you trim up you should have lots of wood to burn. Even a oil burner
no thank you! until i was 12 years old, I thought my name was "get wood" not gonna start doing that again at my age!
try tinfoil when polishing chrome etc , less scratchy & will fill into small pits !
Hello Hello Waylon 😊
hello Eric
No more gogle eyes 😅
right!
I love the dagmars! Has a dragon look to the front!
thank you
