    👍👌👏 2) You two are like one of a kind, you could definitely be brothers! Petrolheads for sure. The cab will look really cool when it's chopped. Hope he is able to find an independent but still technically good donor car.
    Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
    Best regards luck and especially health to all of you.
    Post Scriptum: It looks as if you either need a bigger shop or less cars. I guess that this is the problem a lot of men have.

    Looks like dirk is starting out good. Does he have a donor car in mind, or is he just going with whatever shows up?
    Sure am looking forward to more on your suspension. I’m really interested in how good it’s going to work.

    OG. Maybe2 OBG. Two Ole Billy Goats. . It would be 3 if I was there. 😂. My Dad worked for British Steel in those days. He may have had a hand in the making of that Morris metal. Same area. Shaved plenty weight or of it. Might have to section middle. Low low rider. Do you ever remember the cartoon from 40 years ago. A long haired guy at the doctor wants five inches taking out his legs so he can fit in his Chop. 😂😂.

    I missed the build on the "dually" (That I wish was mine. It's Too Cool) that you guys were pushing in and out.
    At the 4:06 mark, there is a close up of the hat on the exhaust pipe. Is it just a hat or a trick little detail you made out of metal?
    Because if it's metal then that has got to be the coolest rain cap I ever saw.
    I have another question. You talked about a roof chop and channeling but have you ever sectioned a body and if so could you tell me in what video you did it in?
    It is one of those things you don't see people doing a lot of, it's mostly roof chopping and channeling.
    There is nothing wrong in that but I like the look when all three is done. It makes it a little cramped for tall people but for the look, I would endure a little discomfort.
    By the way, you can add another subscriber to your list. Every time you start a project, I've got to stay to the end to find out where the flow goes and what it ends up being.
    It's a build and evolution rolled into one. You build something then after a spell in the "thinking chair" it evolves into something even better.
    In other words, no one knows what it will look like until it's done . . . including you.

    The Morris is already starting to take shape. The chop and channel will look good and reduce the amount of glass to obtain and install. If the supplier inquires this time, tell them you're putting windows in a bird house. From another OG see you next week.

    That's great you taking care of your friends as they probably help you too. Looks like you have a large shop. My brother and I are planning on buying a house together in Arizona and I want to build a shop to get after working on the rustic gold. It's fun to try a budget build I just want to put something together or go back to wood crafting it's going to take some time but that's all I have right now is time. Looking forward to seeing another video with your truck take care man have a great day. Div.
