Excellent video mate, I love the honesty, by showing the trail fittments. The end result was really impressive. I didn’t realise the gt flutes had rounded edges, shows how much attention I’ve paid to them before. Looking forward to your next mod/tricks Mouse
Hey Tom, you have a handle on everything you do, 👍 that oil can door problem, I can see the body line through the door directly above the problem needs massaging down the line is sitting up, when you do that, while holding the panel from falling in will tighten up that panel and stop the oil can. 😎 I’m a bit over 3 weeks in on fixing my hernia, was the best move ever 😎💪
@@phatridesgarage3760 Crwdit where credit is due Tom.🙂👍👍 And here is somethjng you don't know about me! My father got me to learn from some of the old Coach builders of Sydney. Therefor quit a compliment given😉👍👍
I think it came up pretty good. I always liked these vents(I'm a holden guy) and have thought about putting them in my HD Ute for a while, but I never realised they were recessed into the bonnet 😂 So this has put me off a bit... or has it inspired me, we will see. On a side note, I like the channel and the variety of changing up between the cars you have to work on.
top job on the scoops looks as good as factory been looking for a way to do similar pressing method in early holden floor pans to put the squares in them more like factory
Great to see you back Tom. . Top vid, enjoyed it heaps. Hope you found your dog, hernia can be repaired and plenty more fish in the sea( if you like fishing). Keep up the good work, looking forward for the next one mate.
Thanks Joe ! haha, my girlfriend had to ask me what I meant, tried to explain I was making excuses , I do have hernias, but I dont have a dog )))) just for the record lol
Very nicely done Tom👍👍👍…fantastic vid and I love your thought process and journey to find the best way (for you) to get where you’re going 😎…even though I bet that sucked up a LOT of hours , I can tell that you obviously (though probably won’t admit it lol) enjoy the whole process …love your vids and work…cheers 🍻🍻🍻
@@phatridesgarage3760 hi mate I had put a set of xy ones into a xa bonnet for my car a while back but making some sort of press like you did the scoops with I really like by the way. should get you to do my bonnet . Give the press a go . Also keep up the great work love your Chanel mate
@@georgedamouras3454 thanks alot George 👍 if I can help others a little later with the press I will, just want to make sure it all turns out good first .
I used to say to our trainee staff that there was no such thing as a failed practise run, as the failures can be applied to solve other problems sometime in the future.
haha, let me be sure how this one turns out mate , if its good then I dont mind doing some more for others. Next is to remove the skin, fix the frame for rust , reskin and body work the bonnet
Great video again Tom but you do what you feel is right and pay no attention to the comments. The worse comment i hate the most is 'Gee that should only take you 15 minutes to do ' my response was always Fuck off idiot then you do it. Great to see you back and remember take your time. Cheers.
Not sure. Could sell it, but not sure I would get back what I put into it in parts etc, sitting until I get the spray booth organised at least, and cant do that until we finalise the new Lease on this building over the next few weeks
I like the way you tried various techniques to get it right and the end result was well worth it. You did a really good job and you should be proud
Thanks mate I appreciate that!
Hey Tom, don't be hard on yourself, the way to learn stuff is by getting in and having a go, from this side of the camera you are doing a great job
Thanks very Much Michael !
I recon the scoops come up good 👍
