- In this video, I go over making adjustments to the aftermarket hood so it will fit properly. I also demonstrate some welding on the aprons. It seems like all panels for these Mustangs need some adjustment.

Watching these videos is like watching Bob Ross paint. Its comforting. Amazing skills. No matter what the problems are, you just know Barry is gonna get it right. Thank you sir.
The 67 mustang I’m working on also has a double stamp I don’t know why just information to give you
Wish there one video every day. The best restoration channel. 👌👏👏
62 comments I did not read them all. Year old video.... But I was watching a how to read the numbers and it was mentioned in one of the videos I watched that number is double stamped. My first car was a 68 mustang back in 1979. Now i am looking to buy a mustang and been watching you tube and reading all I can. Thanks for the videos.
AS ALWAYS another excellent informative video. 👍💯👊
My 67 also has a double vin stamp on it. Both visible with the fender on.
I’ve never heard of throwing tack welds on the hood like that to stiffin it up. I like that idea
I have a panel with double VIN stamping also same as what you show
Whittling it into shape!
Some great metal working tips!
hi nice work barry .
oh how i wish you lived closer so i could donate my slave labor as payment (because im broke..) for you to fix all my body lines... I'm the same way with minor details but i hate fixing them... looks AAAAmazing Barry. fine work.
Very interesting. I now know what I need to do to my hood.
I really appreciate the weld settings when you do these---great job!
Love it. Your attention to details and problem solving puts SOME local body shops to shame 🤣🤣
Looking good 👍
I don't know if it was camera angle or not, but in the last video it seemed like there was a peak on the fender, where you fixed it in this video. Like the overall curve wasn't smooth. Looking much better now.
Ah yes, the ole wack a mole game...🤣 Curious thou... I've seen you use your big black rubber mallet to straighten or bend metal to fit before. So it kind of threw me for a loop to see you using your body hammer and leaving small dents. I know you'll use a small amount of filler to make it look perfect.
Before I retired I'd spent my fair share of time in different auto plants where I used to work setting up offsite parts cribs and were usually around the final assembly lines of the cars, and can still remember a lot of the folks adjusting doors, hoods, deck lids using nothing more than the big black rubber mallets. Also a great idea for you to have saved those pieces and just cut out the wrong and weld in the good. 👍👍👍👍
I have better control with the body hammer. There weren't any dents. Maybe you see the strike marks in the epoxy. If there is any dents, they're small enough to fill with high build.
Looking Good!
Your attention to detail is over the top, in both your end result and the explanation of how to get there. Barry, you'd make a great shop teacher! Great Video once again! Thanks!
Barry, you missed your calling sir. You should have been a watch maker. Good stuff. Nice to see real professionalism and dedication of doing a great job you can be proud of. Merry Christmas. Blessings from Michigan, home of the 10,000 dead voters.
Some San José mustangs (R) have up to 4 vins stamped into the apron!
Excellent detail on showing us how and when to get the big boy hammer out. Thank Barry for all the tips and trade experience you are giving us to make that hood look like it belongs there! I like that you are using the little bit lingo it flows naturally off your tongue.
Barry, a little bit here, a little bit there, just a little bit more. Great info, c-ya Terry.
Good video and fitment on you hood thumbs up 👍.
I must say I really enjoy the way you think things thru and diagnose the root of the problem. It is very apparent you have a common sense approach to repairing a vehicle properly and going beyond the " that's good enough " mentality. My hat is off to you! I would have said cap but I don't have any lol.
If I get my guy on board, I will place a good size order... Not sure what the delay is.
I counted 9, but might have missed one. Body work...put some on, take it off. Put more on, take more off. Enjoyed the video
👍
Amazing work!
Fantastic job
Another awesome Jo Daddys Garage video
So, what you're saying is you need to adjust it *a little bit* at a time? lol
Enjoy your videos Barry. You are my first TH-cam subscription. Keep doing what you are doing. Great work.
Welcome aboard!
The VIN number is stamped twice on the inner fender of my '67. One is visible, the other is below, hidden from view when the driver's side fender is on. The VIN is also stamped on the passenger side inner fender, hidden from view when the fender is on. The factory fender "goop" is still visible on the passenger side, I have no idea what kind of material they used. Maybe seam sealer, because it held the outer fender on pretty good after the bolts were removed.
I think the first VIN stamp was a mistake and was restamped so it could be seen in the fender cut-out. My VIN is stamped so near the edge it is covered completely by the fender. I never saw it until the fender was taken off. I also had a stamping on the passenger side apron but lost it when I replaced the apron. I believe that these VINs are the official ones as they are on the "chassis." Seeing how you had the wrong VIN (from the T code convertible), what will you do for a chassis VIN? Great video and great work on the fitment!!
The proper VIN is on the dash, and the door dats plate. It won't be a concern.
Hammers are called fine adjusting tools for a reason. There was a heck of a peak where that bolt is.
my 67 coupe also has a double stamp, but they are paralel
love the channel! keep it up!
Double stamps at the factory were common. "It happens"........
Bringing out the heavy artillery aren’t you!
Any advice on getting the bucket to fit under the hood? It's the one part we didn't dry fit before painting and the casting seems to be off by almost 1/2 an inch. It's literally rolled at a different angle and prevents the hood from closing properly.
That’s a tough one. Really can’t offer any advice at this point.
Attention to the details is the difference between ok cars and great cars
This car will eventually end up at SEMA, am I wrong?
@@kareem8533 it should because he does awesome work and it should be show cased!
New subscriber and fellow Mustang owner. How do you get the hood to fender gaps so perfect? My passenger side one is almost touching. Any assistance would greatly be appreciated.
I have covered this in some other videos. It really takes patience. Realize that the car may have had previous damage that will limit the fender adjustment. I think I have a video in the light blue Mustang playlist.
@@JoDaddysGarage I’ll make sure to find and watch that video. Thank you Sir
Hey jo i don't know if u know that u have to use the vin number that is stamped on the inner fender support for registering the car the car gets stolen I need to match that VIN number with your paperwork I had the same issue when I replace my firewall I cut out the stamping for my firewall and welded it to the firewall same as the inner fender so they know that you own the car
Yes. Some states are sticklers for that. When I got my '67 from California the title had a "O" where the "C" for a C-code engine belonged. A typo at some point. I had to trace the VIN with a pencil like in the detective shows where they read a blank notepad sheet left under the top note sheet someone wrote on and removed. I was glad they accepted that and did not make me go for a DOT or law enforcement verification. They do sell sheet metal stamps with the letters and numbers. I had to do that with one Mustang I had that the apron had been replaced and they did not transfer the VIN as you did. Can be a real problem when you go to sell the car if the VIN is not there. Does the '68 have the VIN under the windshield?
VIN is in the proper location on the dash.
In this case, the VIN was on a panel salvaged from another car. It was filled with body filler as well. I found it after I removed the material as seen in the video. I have the correct VIN on the dash and door plate. It won't be an issue.
@@JoDaddysGarage Yes, you are good to go. I believe the '64 1/2 - '67 Mustangs only have it on the aprons and door tag. '68 went to having it on the dash as well. Some states won't accept the door tag which is not valid for registration purposes.
Sir i am trying to buy 17” wheels for my 67 but the offsets are confusing me even more. Can you tell me what your wheels are as far as dimensions?
I'm out of town right now. Send me an email and I'll see what I can come up with when I return.
I bet the first stamp was misaligned, so they stamped it again on the line.
Hidden vin?
Some great metal working tips!
