Dude I like how you use your PPE, some of these guys grind with no goggles, media blast without a respirator, you do it right. Always skilled and professional products coming from your shop along with great ideas.
Loving that you are sticking to a budget build and keeping the 22r. This is great for guys like me who want to thrash on a budget and just drive something unique.
I built a 32 Chevrolet hot rod that I spent 500 hours replacing wood with Steel. Your advice is spot on Chevrolet‘s were nothing but wood. I got a friend with a Plymouth just like you said solid as a rock great advice love the show Jennings Marshall
The best torch cutting trick I learned was when heating to start a cut, you will see little globs of metal running around on the surface. When they run together the metal is hot enough and you can squeeze the handle and start your cut. It makes the start of the cut clean.
I had a 1984 Toyota Hilux with that engine, it was a really neat little truck. The 22R is durable and uncomplicated. I got a LOT of miles out of that little truck, and passed it on to my daughter.
Nothing wrong with a voice-over. Often times, you're able to supplement more thoughts that you may have not shared in the moment when you were doing the initial task, so it's all good 👍✌️
The voice over is great - sometimes it's great to be live in the fire, sometimes hearing it after some thought and retrospect is both refreshing and eye opening. Love the work!! Keep after it.
The "Backcountry Squire/Backwoods Bomber" is coming along nicely! Always love how you and Elio troubleshoot, brainstorm, and problem solve! Amazing torch skills! Don't sweat the voice over! Go Japhands and Elio, keep moving forward!
Love the rough and ready build style. I'm putting Toy axles under a 54 Chevy truck, so obviously I love that too! Whether you guys are heads down on a nice build or just playing around it's a great time in the shop!
another great Canadian car/truck builder (customiser) show for me to watch @ Elio I love your lifestyle it would make any father inlaw happy for his daughter 🙂 cheers 🍻
I liked the voice-over, nice and concise. BTW I am doing a 1927 Buick and it was 18 gauge tack nailed to wood so super flimsy. A lot more room inside than a Ford though.
This project is awesome. And I appreciate when you do things the simple way. Anyone can afford a torch and it’s about the most versatile tool - the high tech toys are cool, but showing the basics makes this accessible to so many more people. Thanks for all the amazing content this year. Wishing you and Elio an awesome Xmas and new years. Looking forward to chop class in 25.
It would be cool to build a bomber style double seat for the back and have singles in front. I was a bit dubious about this at first, but it looks cool, and a bit different than the V8 route
Awesome to see how you are working together with Elliott. It's refreshing to see that you have help, and I totally agree with you about just getting it done is better than just talking about what your going to do and not showing it. PS: Voice over is good, don't mind it at all.
Can’t believe how quick that torch will cut that steel ! amazing..I’m not a metal worker and I’ve never welded anything I just love watching stuff being built . I do like the not to fussy quick builds though guys if I was gonna have go ( and I might just yet ) that’s how I’d be doing it …great vid
This thing is like almost a century old, but still ready for more fun than it ever had. It's gonna look so brutally cool when it's done. Potent Plymouth. You can just freak out on this thing. Bleu velvet back seat with curtains? Why not? Espresso machine build in the dash with the body mounted under the hood? There's plenty room for it, and it sure beats a cup holder. Big fun build.
Good to see you guys relax and enjoy your work Very interesting for young guys building there first car Simple instruction and basic equipment Cheers from Alan down under 👍🏼👍🏼
I've found those oil-based paint-pens to work quite nicely (Work normally uses the Uni markers in yellow); the water-based/acrylic ones work okay but I do find I need to wait longer for it to dry up to the point it can be handled. The good thing about 'em is there's a variety of colours, so you can use -- say -- yellow for marking on darker materials like hot-roll steel with a dark scale, and a darker colour on shiny materials like aluminium or stainless. (...though, that said, if I'm torching or plasma-cutting, soapstone tends to be what I go for if at all possible, because it doesn't have the nasty habit of burning off before I get to it!)
Off to a great start, I really enjoy your videos. Even though it was not intended, I did not mind the voice over. I sometimes like to see a voice over during timelapse to explain what we are seeing. Looking forward to this build.
Love the project! I have a 30 4dr Plymouth that I bought from a friend. It was on a Dodge truck chassis. A real hack job. I pulled the 318 Plymouth out and I plan on putting it in my 24 Dodge Brothers Touring. You gave me another great idea for the 30. Possibly make it 4wheel drive. Enjoyed the video on older cars.
Technical point, the oxygen does not blow the metal away as such it burns it. As for marking steel for cutting I have found that scribing a line the dot punching along that line and going over it with engineers chalk/soapstone then rubbing over that with a cloth so only the chalk in scribe line and dots remain , then cut along the line so only half of the dots remain, that gives the most precise finish.
Your sticky lift motor running is either the switch in the handle. Or more likely the main power contact tips are welding together. If they are threw the silver contact down to the copper you’ll need to replace them.
One of the tricks we used to use to trace a pattern on to the sheet to cut is to just spray over the edge with some light colored paint. Makes a very accurate line very quickly.
Very cool , I prefer the voice over. I find that you give us more useful information. I’ve really enjoyed your last two videos, I get much more from your build videos than the metal forming videos but that’s just me. That’s not to say I haven’t learned anything from them because I have. When I need to made a patch panel or a transmission tunnel etc I have that info to fall back on. Anyhow keep cranking out the work and I’ll keep watching, thanks Karl .
Very nice work. Gonna be a super offroad cruiser. Load it up and head out thru the woods to a lake. Merry Christmas to you, Elio and yours. Be safe and stay well.
Awesome looking build yall !!!!! It will be a great daily driver for sure !!!! Simple build with an awesome finished project !!!! Hands down amazing build yall !!!! Looking forward to seeing it's maiden drive !!!! Merry Christmas yall and happy new year
I bought a WeldPro welder for body and small repairs... got it on sale for around $450, it's normally around $650, but it's 220v, as well as, 110v, but comes with a regulator, and everything you need besides a bottle. It's mig and arc, with the ability to reverse polarity, and runs better than my neighbors Lincoln in my honest opinion. Can run shielded gas and flux core. If you need a smaller welder, I highly recommend checking them out.
Marking steel,whiteout pen. One is it really doesent burn off, and a pen,pencil or an awl can make more accurate mark. Cutting with oxy/acetelyene is a art in itself. Liking the build, likely had a flathead,probably around 65 horsepowers. The 360 in the Fargo is about 2” to the right, as steering box and starter wanted to occupy the same space. My brother had a 71 Corolla,Ford 302.
Soapstone's the ideal, but I'd surely use some of those magnet dealeys to hold the paper down while tracing, 'cause I'm forever allowing it to shift around on me...
Looking good guys. You're always teaching, and I'm always listening. Noticed this time that Elio has big ass Shrek hands! He should have been holding that heavy dolly with those Barney Rubble fingers! Can't wait for the next part.
I like todays music it's got a good beat to it for the fast forward action. I also want to commend you on the use of proper Personal Protection Equipment.. There are so many TH-camrs that do not use any and it bugs the heck out of me as I know what it's like to have eye damage from no protection.. Great show as always. TX PS. Can you tell us about the torch stand that you use.. I often set the wood bench on fire mistakenly setting down the torch.. I use the Silver sharpie and you can see it really well. Also the welding shop now has paint pins for marking in white and yellow that work great..
Loving the build and it’s cool to see the torch being used, all of the internet is using grinders or plasma cutters and saying that is the way. Could a build like this be built as a driver, I always worry about not being able to have a project insured and not being able to daily it
Love it. Just wondering if you will re brace the X frame section that you removed to accommodate the transmission output yoke. It seems quite a bit of strength was removed from the chassis when you cut that section out. Those X frames gave a lot of torsional strength to those chassis.
Not trying to be harsh or anything and I know it's not your usual content and you've got bigger fish to fry but you should do a video repairing your forklift. BTW, love this build!
Dude I like how you use your PPE, some of these guys grind with no goggles, media blast without a respirator, you do it right. Always skilled and professional products coming from your shop along with great ideas.
And cut with no sleeves
I like the voice overs. It's like a narrative. Great project, not the norm for sure. 👍👍🇨🇦

I absolutely love this project!!
Excellent tip on the body being better on ‘off’ brands. This thing is going to be cool!
It's amazing how Chrysler built their bodies back then all steel construction 4 wheel hydraulic brakes

The voiceover is fine. Even the sneeze at 39:22 is fine :)
Season Greetings From the UK Thankyou for all your vids this year.... Can't wait to see what comes Next..
The "Backcountry Squire/Backwoods Bomber" is coming along nicely! Always love how you and Elio troubleshoot, brainstorm, and problem solve! Amazing torch skills! Don't sweat the voice over! Go Japhands and Elio, keep moving forward!
Not everyone has a plasma table or plasma cutter .Karl is showing that can be done ,with the torch as well. good job Karl.
Nice to see that there is still some appreciation for the old school skills!
When cutting, a steady hand helps. And you do have a Steady hand.
voice over was fine. You did a good job.
Love the rough and ready build style. I'm putting Toy axles under a 54 Chevy truck, so obviously I love that too! Whether you guys are heads down on a nice build or just playing around it's a great time in the shop!
Thank you guys. That bod was deserving of a new life.
Man I've learnt so much watching you ❤

Loving the build , but crying that it's not slammed with fat tires big motor and one off interior..I LOVE that body style for a custom rat

This is a cool build!
I was told you need to learn something new every day so you can better yourself and watching you guys, I learn that and then some thanks
No worries about the voiceover, you still showed all the important stuff.
Love the build, reminds me of my 32 Chrysler coupe build with a V12.
Yes Sir,what's good...
Going to be Fun
thx Guys
Voiceovers were great. 220v welder makes a huge difference. Have both.
Good to see you guys relax and enjoy your work
Very interesting for young guys building there first car
Simple instruction and basic equipment
Cheers from Alan down under 👍🏼👍🏼
A fun 4x4 vehicle
I liked the voice over changed it up

Certainly getting it done, should be a great rig when you done, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones

Going to be pretty cool when you get it done. Nice lesson on the torch.

Great video. Thank you for the torch tips. The audio didn't bother me at all. Keep up the great work.
Karl - try a silver Sharpee for marking steel. Works great and easily wiped off with thinner if needed. Great build!
Flame cutting is a skill all on its own
A white out pen works great, and a torch won't burn it away.
This is such a cool vehicle, a project in formation 👍🏻
Loving the project. Didn’t mind the voice over. It kinda of worked for me.
Liking this project! Looks like a lot of fun! Don't forget the Zephyr! Yeah, I know I sound like a broken record! 🙄😁
Great video guys love your work , this will be one cool hot rod when it’s finished , keep this going looking forward to see it running .👍
Very nice work. Gonna be a super offroad cruiser. Load it up and head out thru the woods to a lake. Merry Christmas to you, Elio and yours. Be safe and stay well.
Awesome looking build yall !!!!! It will be a great daily driver for sure !!!! Simple build with an awesome finished project !!!! Hands down amazing build yall !!!! Looking forward to seeing it's maiden drive !!!! Merry Christmas yall and happy new year
I think this is cool. I did a 28 Chrysler rat rod and it was a lot of fun to build.
Yall are awesome guys merry Christmas yall and happy new year yall
Merry Christmas happy new year from Perth WA. early

I like to use whiteout pens. Learned about these watching one of FabRats videos.
I hear good things about useing whiteout pens for laying out your cut lines on metal.
thrashing and smashing content...great builds as always
I can’t wait to see how u customize this one
Love the 4 x 4 idea
Great video, I have to say though, that ride absolutely needs a bench seat up front.
Soapstone's the ideal, but I'd surely use some of those magnet dealeys to hold the paper down while tracing, 'cause I'm forever allowing it to shift around on me...
Looking good guys. You're always teaching, and I'm always listening. Noticed this time that Elio has big ass Shrek hands! He should have been holding that heavy dolly with those Barney Rubble fingers! Can't wait for the next part.
Cool build thanks guys
I use silver sharpie markers when using my plasma as you can still see it through the sparks
This is going to be a cool build.
I like todays music it's got a good beat to it for the fast forward action. I also want to commend you on the use of proper Personal Protection Equipment.. There are so many TH-camrs that do not use any and it bugs the heck out of me as I know what it's like to have eye damage from no protection.. Great show as always. TX PS.

Tip:
Best Smelling Rust Killer
"Ketchup"
Layout Designs:
On Stainless - use a Ink Pencil or Brass Knife
On Black Iron - use a Silver Pencil or Scribe
Love this project! ❤
Great work Karl and Elio Coming along great Chrysler was ahead of the game with there Cars KOOL build Merry Christmas 🎅🏻🤶🏻
Try using whiteout. I carry a whiteout pen in my welding setup as well as my torches
Awesome project
Great video guys, thanks!😊💯👍
Loving the build and it’s cool to see the torch being used, all of the internet is using grinders or plasma cutters and saying that is the way. Could a build like this be built as a driver, I always worry about not being able to have a project insured and not being able to daily it
Measure with a yard stick, mark it with chalk, cut it with a torch. You'll be fine😅
Try white out pen doesn’t wipe off or burn off Love your channel
Pretty sure that would have had a straight six. That Yota motor should work fine, but it would be sort of cool to use a later Mopar slant six in it.
YAA ZEE BLITZENKRUZER!
Cool video! I use alligator toe nails to mark on steel....flawless!🐊
Sharpie has white markers for black boards.
very cool project
Awesome work!
I'm kinda suprised you didn't do a body swap & am interested in how you do the wiring.
Awesome carbon 🎉
Cool Build 👍
Silver Sharpie for the win!
Cool project ❤
nice job audio was fine
Love it.
Just wondering if you will re brace the X frame section that you removed to accommodate the transmission output yoke.
It seems quite a bit of strength was removed from the chassis when you cut that section out.
Those X frames gave a lot of torsional strength to those chassis.
Try White Out correction fluid. Supposed to work very well.
Soap stone. I've always called it engineers chalk. Maybe it's a different country thing.
Not trying to be harsh or anything and I know it's not your usual content and you've got bigger fish to fry but you should do a video repairing your forklift. BTW, love this build!
