Hey Steve, Using a grinder with cutting disc without a guard is playing Russian roulette. I speak from experience as I now have a little finger that had it tendons cut and now is permanently bent at the first knuckle. Safety first, keep all your fingers second and cutting a roof third.
It wld be cool if someone made a car like this without chopping it! Since everyone chops them... it's still badass tho! Idk if I cld chop it I'd probaly have a heart attack! I cringed when I did a norcal on my fenders an cut a hole in my bed for quick fuel pump access lol!!!
Very smart and wise man. I've mad some cool shit after watching all his work on here. And make Aussie versions of a rat rod. Thanks for helping me follow through with what I thought I could not do. Cheers mate. 🇦🇺
To me you're the best met you 2 years ago when I came to Vegas from Texas I waved you down and you were the coolest thanks for being cool and for all the awesome videos keep it going brother
Nice info but with all the metal shavings flying around I think I would have covered the intake valley to keep shavings out of motor...unless that is a mock up motor.
Absolute sacrilege......4" would have been plenty. Making another rat rod out of a good Henry steel body is simply sacrilege. The rubbish these guys build is an absolute joke.
You again,look you don't even live in the US. So,you said 4inches would have been plenty and at the same time your calling it sacrilege. Keep in mind that these cars would just rust away into nothing and they are putting them back on the road. Doing it the way they want to and your opinion really doesn't mean anything. I like all hot rods and when you build a hot rod you are modifying it in one form or another. Don't worry yourself,here in the states there are alot of original cars from that era that are in museums and owners that still keep them original. Millions of these cars were built.
@@freedomsnotfreefreedomsnot2296 I know how many Model A's where built...4.8 million,but many where recycled for the war effort & they are becoming fewer & fewer. I mentioned sacrilege because when you get a nice straight '30 or '31 5 window coupe it seems a god damn shame to turn it into a "rat rod". I've seen what this guy does & the junk yards he visits to build them & it leaves me wondering what might have been. Now,how about we let this banter go.You like what you like,I like & build cars that win shows & attract attention for the owners. I can build a "rat rod" too,but we have a different taste here in Oz,a bit more like Foose Design, Builder of the Decade. Seeya!!
@@myredute Look I said that I like and appreciate all old cars that are put back on the road and it does not to me on how that is accomplished. Chip Foose is a great car builder,but he highly modifys body lines,roofs,and extends bodies. Only difference really is an overpriced interior and paintjob. Chip is very respectful to people who just simply put old cars back on the road. Not everyone has had the opportunities that he has had,he is very humble and understands that. So I ask you,what the hell is with you and your egotistical attitude? You are not better than anyone else.
Steve my question is what do you do about the now smaller glass that is needed ? Do you make it or buy it from somewhere ? I'm a new viewer and love the show ! Praying for a season 5
There are Auto Glass and windshield replacement that specialize in antique autos. It's possible there is one in your area. Thanks so much for watching and good luck with the chop.
There's got to be a better method than welding and then taking off magnets are pretty powerful these days I wonder if they make something that is adjustable with heavy-duty magnets
Hey Steve, in Australia if we do a turret replacement we have to stagger the cuts for inner and outer panels in the pillars then re plug weld the spot welds on the edges. Takes a while to measure but makes it easy to hold together with vicegrips and makes it nice and strong. Love ya work!
Great job I admire that kind of cars a lot I would like to know if there is a second video, it is nice to see how they take the time to make a real and original video.
steve seriously love what ya do!! you inspired me to build my own truck i had planned on a gasser style rat rod but the truck is from Tuscon so i had to paint it it was so nice i just had to make it nice! but i stuck with the rat fink style (your 55) its a guitar shop themed 56 dodge C3 i have custom lift blocks 60+in long ladder bars the hangers are shaped like an explorer guitar roadie passes on the dash set lists pasted to the roof a super tall guitar neck shifter PAR CAN taillights and a twin turbo twin AFB carbs 322ci poly 318 should make 700hp with my guitar shop logo on the doors PANAMA RED GUITARS, i also put the tank in the bed and covered it with 2 fake amps also with my shop logo behind the mesh screen backlit with red and green LED'S ,well i have all the parts and the frame is now finished so im assembling it now!!! wanna help???
Hey love seeing all the stuff that you guys do is looks awesome, I just wanted to ask it you had any tips on building rat rods like what kind of motor to use or what kind of frames. I haven’t started building mine yet I’m still getting advice from different people.
That's the best way to go about it. Talk to the Rat Rodders and look closely at their creations. Everyone is different and it depends on the type of car or truck you are building. It's important that you use your imagination create it as your piece of Art. The junk yard will never look the same to you after you discover the treasures there, that will look perfect on your build. That gives you the satisfaction and pride you feel when finished. Yes, keep getting advise from your buddies that build them.
WelderUp it is awesome to hear back from you I’m planning on getting some stuff off of your website soon, thank for your advice, there is not to many rat rod around where I live it more so hot rod here. I have 1946 and a 1949 international KB trucks the only thing missing is the box and rear fenders. The 46 belonged to my grandfather he gave it to me before he passed away, I would love to restore it to original and have the 49 as the rat rod
That is exactly what you should do. Bring back you Grandfathers truck, that way you will always have him with you. The 49 would make a nice Rat. You will get addicted and it will wake you from your sleep with your next idea.
People saying that on here cracks me up,it's like you would rather see it continue to rust away into nothing. He's putting back on the road so quit getting your panties in a bunch and get over it.
There was millions of these cars built,as far as Im concerned what they are doing is putting it back on the road and it's better than rusting away into nothing.
Hey Steve, Using a grinder with cutting disc without a guard is playing Russian roulette. I speak from experience as I now have a little finger that had it tendons cut and now is permanently bent at the first knuckle. Safety first, keep all your fingers second and cutting a roof third.
Murray Daniels was thinking the same thing!!
No guard, no gloves... loco loco.
Scary shit when a blade breaks from binding.
It wld be cool if someone made a car like this without chopping it! Since everyone chops them... it's still badass tho! Idk if I cld chop it I'd probaly have a heart attack! I cringed when I did a norcal on my fenders an cut a hole in my bed for quick fuel pump access lol!!!
I saved a broken bandsaw blade for marking on curved surfaces.
Looking forward to next video.
Great job so far!

Thanks Adam, it was nice to meet you!
Steve, who is Hemroid and why are you wearing his shirt? lol
I chopped 4in outta my 29 A and I wish I would have cut out 2 lol the damage is done
2 more or only 2? Chopping out 4 still makes them look freaking awesome!
Like these guys have a sense of humor. Love the name tag. Like to work with these guys.
That is the name my Dad gave me! Gee, I wonder why!
Seems like Justin is dirtier than Steve, shows who must be doing all the work.
Nice info but with all the metal shavings flying around I think I would have covered the intake valley to keep shavings out of motor...unless that is a mock up motor.
Miss watching you guys on TV. Much respect for your passion you pour into those vintage iron toys.
When is part 2 going to be out. I know you have worked on it in the past 2 months. I am staying tuned for the next part.
They probably figured out that with such a deep channeling and radical chop there is no room for pedals or people. YMMV

awesome content! keep em' coming.

Why stop there? Chop it all the way so the roof is right on the dash. Then you will be unreal.
Awesome 👍🏼. Thanks for sharing. Took the fear out of it for me.
More how to do videos they are super helpful!!! Have a weekend workshop would be very cool.
More to come and thanks for watching!
Fuck yes when’s the next episode
hey man how about finding another one and ADDING THE 6 IN!!! THAT SHIT WOULD LOOK FREAKY
OK have to say it. I'm no videographer but can you address the focus. It seems like the stuff I'm really trying to check out is blurry.
There's got to be a better method than welding and then taking off magnets are pretty powerful these days I wonder if they make something that is adjustable with heavy-duty magnets
Can’t Wait for Your New Season
Hey Steve, in Australia if we do a turret replacement we have to stagger the cuts for inner and outer panels in the pillars then re plug weld the spot welds on the edges. Takes a while to measure but makes it easy to hold together with vicegrips and makes it nice and strong. Love ya work!
Excellent Work, Guys!
Just picked up one off of OfferUp your a huge inspiration to the younger community well at least to me killing it out there brother
Like bad haircuts and beards someday these cops are going to look like hell on earth.
Your work looks really good. But I hate you for chopping .😜🤘👍😎
Great job I admire that kind of cars a lot I would like to know if there is a second video, it is nice to see how they take the time to make a real and original video.
Very kool thanks for sharing,hugs from MN

Chops get boring after a wile.
Sweet mate nice look forward to seeing updates
6" is too much...
How do you know how much you can chop out?
There will be no part 2?
How about an update on the rod
