Fabricating the rear window patch panel for the drivers rear window. Multiple steps and multiple pieces to create a single patch panel for the Working mans Hotrod
Great job you have got really good at making patch panels great videos keep up the good work now people are going to come to you to get things done you have really came a long way at working on hot rods
Awesome fabrication welding repair work the back window did not look easy.. but you made it happen..now it has a more solid foundation to work on it's auto body. Good work. 👍
Great video my friend! You may not be a professional fabricator , but your doing what every project builder with building their own ways to accomplish to learn by mistake and redoing it to get right! Don't worry cause your doing great with getting it done, and that's what counts in my world!
Hey Mike I kinda figured that piece wasn't going to be an easy one to make nice job Mike definitely hard to recreate a. Stamped piece with multiple bends and roles awesome work Mike 👍
Wow, a pretty straight forward bit of fab on the tail made such an impressive help to the appearance of that end! Now........the driver side rear window patch/patches really was a tedious animal that would try the patience of several panel beaters! You certainly are among those that can figure out exactly all of the details and have the skills and the patience to make it happen! Great job Mike! Thanks and all the best to you and Alli!
I thought so too. It was a heck of a lot easier than shrinking and wheeling a new one. Thank you for the kind words. It took some time, I’m extremely happy how it came out and I enjoy the process of figuring things out. I want to get better.
Hi ya Mick what i do to stop my Glasses misting up when you have a mask on is a the same stuff for when your riding your MOTORCYCLE this stops your glassed or visor from misting up it works real good when you put a mask on for working on the Rod its called Muc-off Premum Anti-Fog Treatment. Basically its a spray you use on your glasses works for me each day i work i give them a spray it does not damage your glasses . Well worth using this sort of product so you can work and see what your doing...keep up the good work bud, your mate here in the UK.
Enjoyed seeing the thought process. The progression in simplifying the patch to something one can accomplish in the home garage was excellent. Not everyone has a Pullmax and customs set of dies to stamp that piece out. Well done!
Thanks Mike. I appreciate it man. I’m glad it came across well in the video. I know I missed a few steps while I was off camera figuring things out. Thanks for the kind words and for the support. Mike
I think you're doing an amazing job with a pile of tin ya started with. Every video adds more value and more of a complete car. I'm looking at a used piece of equipment that rolls, bends, and cuts sheet metal. I just don't have the room for them separately. My family thinks I've lost my mind. We'll have the tools a long time and hopefully I'll be here to teach my grandsons how to usethem
That was a tough one. Thank you for the tip on the Trulers. I got mine early last week and am ready to buy more. following you the last dozen-ish episodes I can see what shop tools I'll need to acquire to get to your level of fun and satisfaction. Carry on Mike! This is good stuff.
Great video Mike! I look forward to the new videos and can't wait to see the 32 roadster build. I'm sure you can't wait to work on it. Epic find and it went to a great home.
Yes I saw. I don’t no what I did but mist the end then replayed it and you was working the bottom of the back panel. I like the way you figure the problem out. I’m learning from your work. Thanks a lot.
I’m doing what I’m doing, the next guy can fix whatever he wants. I’ve said it a 100 times. I’m not keeping this car. But at the same time I don’t want to half ass what I do.
For a guy who claims limited metal working ability . You did a great job, the window was a tough place to fix, nice tinkering !!
Thanks so much. I really appreciate the kind words. Always learning
Doing a great job . Your living what many of us would love to do .😊

What’s that saying. One broken bolt from a two day ordeal. You figured that out well. Don’t you have a shrinker, stretcher? Definitely nice work. Tim.
Yes I have one. I used it in this video.
Yes I saw. I don’t no what I did but mist the end then replayed it and you was working the bottom of the back panel. I like the way you figure the problem out. I’m learning from your work. Thanks a lot.
Wow that was amazing I was thinking that through with you and my head exploded I need your tools or are you using magic
I’m a wizard in civilian clothes. 😂
You do realize that you are the next guy.
I’m doing what I’m doing, the next guy can fix whatever he wants.
I’ve said it a 100 times. I’m not keeping this car. But at the same time I don’t want to half ass what I do.
I guess I am in some respect.
Nicely done.
What song is at your beginning and end. Cool tune.
The artist is Say it.
The song is On my Own. (Instrumental version)
What's going on with the Blue 34 Coupe? I liked that project, did you sell it?
Donated it to Kars for Kids
