Have you seen auto restorers the guild on youtube? I believe it goes through season one. They build a Bugatti like this from scratch. Even made it from magnesium like the original.
I am really glad I found you two on here. I was just looking for bodywork tips and tricks. But, now I can't stop watching your progress on those projects. You seem very real and sincere in your videos. Hope you both do really well.
Priming is probably as fun as painting color day ...nice to get over all that dirty work ....getting to the finish line..be soon a winner..looks great...
You guys rock. Just watched the Bad Chadillac episode and I found your youtube videos so I subscribed. Hope to see another season. Your cars are the best. Originality is being lost in cars today. I drive a 1965 Chrysler Valiant AP6 it’s over 55 years old and people who say petrol driven cars are bad need to wake up and look at the old cars that are now worth more than new cars and you keep them for life. These plastic heaps made in China are rubbish and I’d never buy one. Give me a classic any day. Keep up the great work. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
this project is so great to watch! Thank you for sharing it with us, I know that Jolene is one happy lady, and Jolene you are doing a great job filming. I bet you can wait to see it finished and you take your first drive. :-)
THE JOCHAGATTI PROJECT is what I call this project and man it's really showing it's true colors now the primer is being painted on...not the conventional way I'm used of seeing primer being painted ....panel to panel arms length spraying technique but not the less it's practical for first primer...On a different note is it just me being happy with the results or I see a smiling face from the rear point of view😁😁😁👍👍👍🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Looks great from the rear Chad! Nice metal work! Can’t wait to see you miracle that engine into that small space. Thank you for keeping us constantly updated.
I've seen a video about this Bugatti, and I wondered about the raised section on the fenders and roof. The Bugatti was made of lightweight magnesium, so, therefore, could not be welded. Beautiful car.
there is a hinge called a SOSS hinge you might have heard of it they are mostly used in house doors. but they make some heavy duty ones that would work on automobiles and they are hidden hinges when door is closed you cant see them. really think they would be perfect for some of your builds you might look them up and see what you think
I love them donuts. I got Canadian truvk drivers who bring me them to my job after I load them up. Seen that cup your using for thinner so i had to pause it and say they are the best I ever had. I love the tidbits i think they called. The tinny balls my favorite is the white ones with the filling.
Its looking great Chad, your attention to bodywork has paid off , its really starting to look amazing. Can't wait until we see the final top cout and lacquer on to see the beauty you've created here
Watching from Prince Edward Island. Cool to watch this unfold. Maybe if we get a bubble this summer or return to a more 'normalish' life I can take a run over your way and check out your projects. :-)
There is some primer call all you need. Its sprayable filler and primer sealer all in one. Have you ever tried it? Its some really good stuff in my opinion. Have used it on quite a few restoration jobs. I would send you a quart to try if you would, I think you would be really pleased.
With craftsmanship of this quality Bugatti blue is the only colour that would do it justice I think, it truly is a piece of automotive artwork, that’s going to be one lucky lady driving this beauty.
I was just watching you poor that primer into the can with the activation in it thinking', I hope it doesn't Splash back into the fresh primer; then I saw you stuff the stir stick in it', so then I wasn't worried about the splashback anymore LOL. I've been there done that LOL.
The primer looks awesome!!! Can I be crazy for a second and say that the car would look so bad ass with grey paint, black rims and black on all the Chrome accents
All I do is put some masking tape on the rim of the paint can and then it doesn’t run all over the can when I pour and doesn’t fill up the slot for the lid on the can if you know what I’m saying .
Dude! Bend up a round stock paint gun holder for your paint bench!!! You could dream and bend one up in five minutes with your skills...just a suggestion, cheers!
What colour are you planning? Hopefully an old classic colour to suit it, definitely the Bugatti blue and even a deep dark solid red, really Light faded green, silver, black, ooft I can’t decide but it’s going to look amazing
It's hard to watch someone else do something I've done my entire life. There are many different ways to get to the same end result. It's painful watching someone else do them.
Chad. Your extraction works pretty good , better than mine , l had a pretty hairy moment earlier last year! And please don't tell that engine is from the series 1 you collected the other week ! That was far too good to break ! Thanks Jolene .
My thoughts too & spraying from the top down is blowing all that dust back up over the sides of the car. Plus doors wide open creating draft. Spray booths are designed with negative pressure so when doors are opened it pushes any ingress of foreign matter out of the booth. That gravity feed gun looks like it needs a larger fluid tip & needle with a matching size air cap. Listening to the compressor running constantly isn’t a good sign either & it sounds like there’s quite a lot of air pressure drop through the line before it reaches the gun. In summary, not the best way to go about getting an even coat of primer on the vehicles panels. I served my apprenticeship in the U.K. on R/Royce, Bentley, Jaguar, Alvis & Bristols, back in the early 60’s, retired now and watching this is honestly the opposite of the way I was taught. Times have changed I guess !!
We need a sequel in say two years, be interesting to see if this car is still drivable, lot of good ideas but..... only in America, ah I mean Canada 😁😁😬💀
Please no links on the screen near the end of vids,,,I really like to watch the whole video. I learn a lot from you Chad, you're a smart guy that's been around the block. Plus, you are weird enough to keep it all interesting. Kinda like me.
Ive watched alot of car shows, but this Bugatti build is the most interesting one ever
This man is a true God at fabrication.
Have you seen auto restorers the guild on youtube? I believe it goes through season one. They build a Bugatti like this from scratch. Even made it from magnesium like the original.
is the most beaty ever! El Type 57 SC Atlantic maybe
If your not already, I hope you become a millionaire Chad, you deserve it, working hard, teaching and sharing your craft in the true hot rodder style.
I am really glad I found you two on here. I was just looking for bodywork tips and tricks. But, now I can't stop watching your progress on those projects. You seem very real and sincere in your videos. Hope you both do really well.

The excitement is too much to handle ! I can smell it from here ! Thanks for sharing!

Man that is such a cool feeling when you finally get some primer happening. And the final color will be...
Light pastel? Maybe light electric blue?
kandy navy blue or middle blue?
Whatever Joline wants :)
It’s got a wicked look from the back at a angle up towards the front fender! 😎👍
Priming a car for its final finish always feels good. Looking great Chad & Jolene.
this project is so great to watch! Thank you for sharing it with us, I know that Jolene is one happy lady, and Jolene you are doing a great job filming. I bet you can wait to see it finished and you take your first drive. :-)
It’s THE GREAT PRIMER FLOOD!!!🤙🏼Lookin sweet! Always a great feeling when you can look at a uniform surface😎
Must feel good, this project is so great to watch! Thank you for sharing it with us, I feel like you guys are family by now!

It's amazing how much better anything looks with just a coat of primer.
Really looking good. Can hardly wait for the finished product. It will be great.
You've inspired me and as a result I've just bought a 1966 Austin Seven Mini to restore. 😊👍
My favourite episode will definitely be the paint and chrome but I love watching the progress start to finish - what a journey
Jolene your doing such great job filming much love from Minneapolis GOD BLESS.
She actually does do a really good job filming , very natural talent and good use of camera functions , I know I’ve done this for a living also .
Just north of mpls here. Wondering what equipment Jolene uses?
truly the most interesting interior of a paint booth ever!
Looked great when you pushed it in the booth. Looks awesome in primer.
I've seen a video about this Bugatti, and I wondered about the raised section on the fenders and roof. The Bugatti was made of lightweight magnesium, so, therefore, could not be welded. Beautiful car.
this car is capturing the essence of what its all about words are hard to describe how beautiful its turning out
Wow true talent. Cannot wait to see this finished car.
there is a hinge called a SOSS hinge you might have heard of it they are mostly used in house doors. but they make some heavy duty ones that would work on automobiles and they are hidden hinges when door is closed you cant see them. really think they would be perfect for some of your builds you might look them up and see what you think
seeing Jolene's Bugatti with shiny gray primer makes me picture it in Silver with just a touch of blue. It will be a special creation in any color.
I love them donuts. I got Canadian truvk drivers who bring me them to my job after I load them up. Seen that cup your using for thinner so i had to pause it and say they are the best I ever had. I love the tidbits i think they called. The tinny balls my favorite is the white ones with the filling.
Its looking great Chad, your attention to bodywork has paid off , its really starting to look amazing. Can't wait until we see the final top cout and lacquer on to see the beauty you've created here
My choice for color would be a deep black cherry metal flake. Maybe with a little gold pin striping. With buckskin interior
Wow... going to be amazing!!!!!!! I think this car will turn heads for the next century!!!!!
Plain and simple Thank you for all your videos
Watching from Prince Edward Island. Cool to watch this unfold. Maybe if we get a bubble this summer or return to a more 'normalish' life I can take a run over your way and check out your projects. :-)
I can almost smell the paint ! 😃 oh hang on that's the tractor mudguards I primed today !
Great watching it come alive as it all gets one color.
Rivet alternatives... holes of clear epoxy flush to the surface, clear mounted ball bearings, eyelets, SS dowl turned ends
There is some primer call all you need. Its sprayable filler and primer sealer all in one. Have you ever tried it? Its some really good stuff in my opinion. Have used it on quite a few restoration jobs. I would send you a quart to try if you would, I think you would be really pleased.
I'm excited to see what color she picks for it 👌 a simple classy color would be nice but a wild bright color would be amazing aswell. Good luck
This car looks awesome keep up the good work Chad .
Looking great u guys!! I think we all can’t wait for paint!!
Yeah finnaly what a beast . im guessing bugatti Blue
With craftsmanship of this quality Bugatti blue is the only colour that would do it justice I think, it truly is a piece of automotive artwork, that’s going to be one lucky lady driving this beauty.
Looking great! You could do it a French Grey/Blue with Red wheels and Red interior.
Been watching since y’all went to the museum an y’all started the Bugatti , awesome!
Show amazing how just a little bit of paint even though it's primer make set car look so much different what colour you wanna finish it with
Wow what a big difference just the primer makes on this car woo I can’t wait to see it with the dark red colour jolene is thinking about putting on it
I was just watching you poor that primer into the can with the activation in it thinking', I hope it doesn't Splash back into the fresh primer; then I saw you stuff the stir stick in it', so then I wasn't worried about the splashback anymore LOL. I've been there done that LOL.
Looks awesome Mr chad thanks for showing the primer process ! Peace friends
Where can I find the early build stuff on the Bugatti? I would like to see how chad got the car started.
I looks so good in just primer. I am so impressed!
On the doors why can't you have handles pull out instead of turning to open. Just a thought
The primer looks awesome!!! Can I be crazy for a second and say that the car would look so bad ass with grey paint, black rims and black on all the Chrome accents
I really enjoy your channel, have been watching for a long time, I just rarely ever comment!! From Hamilton, Ontario!!
All I do is put some masking tape on the rim of the paint can and then it doesn’t run all over the can when I pour and doesn’t fill up the slot for the lid on the can if you know what I’m saying .
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍YESSSSSSS!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍ONE OF YOUR BEST YET👍👍
I watch for the motivation to get my butt in the garage! Thanks Chad! Thanks Jolene!
Your doing a great job applying the primary,it going to be one bad looking car when your done painting it
Dude! Bend up a round stock paint gun holder for your paint bench!!! You could dream and bend one up in five minutes with your skills...just a suggestion, cheers!
All thumbs up, From South Carolina, THANKS ...
Green 🍏 would be a great idea 💡
What colour are you planning? Hopefully an old classic colour to suit it, definitely the Bugatti blue and even a deep dark solid red, really
Light faded green, silver, black, ooft I can’t decide but it’s going to look amazing
Was that a Tim Hortons coffee cup you had the thinner in lol, nice to see a touch of Canada!
That Hass to feel good after all that work finally the first prime is underway
omg, your at the priming stage??? wow, we are getting close to seeing Jolene taking Chad for a ride. i hope they go for a picnic.
Lost for words mate how sweet it is 👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺
Chad. What about the tail lights. And the skirts would look good with the outside locks on them. Looks good.
The dog walks into the paint booth and says “Where the hell did my dog bed go”?... 😂 greetings from Maine guys.
have we a color choice yet?,,, im hoping a light mint green.. or a teal
It's hard to watch someone else do something I've done my entire life. There are many different ways to get to the same end result. It's painful watching someone else do them.
Looking good Right on brother now its time to block sand away. Keep up the great work👍👍👍
Looks so good Chad, your an artist
Chad. Your extraction works pretty good , better than mine , l had a pretty hairy moment earlier last year! And please don't tell that engine is from the series 1 you collected the other week ! That was far too good to break ! Thanks Jolene .
Looking nice in one colour
Prime time with Chad !
Yessssss! This is the moment I've been waiting fooorrrrr
Does anyone know if this body was bought or was it made in another series. Thanks.
One of a kind car i hope she win alot of prizes with 🇺🇲✌🏿❤🌹🇺🇲.
Chad is simply amazing
Nice! Love the Pepsi cooler too!
Jolene your camera work is suburb. What video camera are you using? Does Chad like wearing a mic? Great job. Barry AZ
Keep up the great work, thanks for sharing. Artie, from Clarksville, N.S.
The Aerolith looks like an early 40's Batmobile.
That’s a great Bugatti kit car fantastic
Maybe I'm wrong but there looks to be a shit load of filler dust everywhere.

really looks nice in one color great effort guys, Dennis in Virginia
We're did u order your windshield from I'm in ns and need one
What color are you going to paint the Jogotti ?
We need a sequel in say two years, be interesting to see if this car is still drivable, lot of good ideas but..... only in America, ah I mean Canada 😁😁😬💀
I keep watching you and all that I can think is this dude just created this fucking car
You are a great car builder
This car is exciting - it will bring a new level of notoriety.
Getting closer
Do you use high pressure and a small spray pattern when shooting primer?
Nice video Chad.. this thing going to be great when done
If I think that spray gun is a 1.4 like I think I do, how are you able to spray that thick primer through it? Looking great BTW
I was wondering what tips he is using. I think I have a 1.7 and I spray that same primer and it doesn't come out like that.
You have one of the steadiest hands I've seen , probably a good shot as well
what is the final color going to be ????
Chad you spray like a Robot, just wait until it’s painted 💯🔥🔥🔥
Please no links on the screen near the end of vids,,,I really like to watch the whole video. I learn a lot from you Chad, you're a smart guy that's been around the block. Plus, you are weird enough to keep it all interesting. Kinda like me.
Should try out eastwood optiflow primer.
Am I going to Hell for wanting to build a Bugatti Rat Rod?
Looks great Chad.
Are you going to open the rear wheel well? I think I mist that explanation.
He's going to drop the axle down and cut them out from behind with a hacksaw blade.
