Hi Chad, loved the interview the other night. I had to laugh because I have said to my wife You're like the Bob Ross of car builds and then you said it lol. Your soldering needs some work. It is called sweating and requires much less solder than you're using. Put a damp rag where you want to control the heat, so you don't un sweat a joint and put all your heat to the fitting and the heat will draw the solder in. Just a heads up for the next time. When done right you will see very little solder in the joint.
Nice positive way to help. Good on you.
The copper pipe wasn't soldered properly and it leaked. Taking the cylinder head off in the future is going to be really hard due to the welds from the throttle cable. That's what you get from "free range auto construction", and its more entertaining than any other car show anywhere! Love the bumps and hiccups as much as the successes.
Every house we built we tested the copper heat lines for leaks when we started the heat and ran in water to the boiler,as far as the head get a wheel and cut the welds ,this is a shop car running the 1/8 mile no big deal.
One big hiccup!
It will be a rubber hose before it goes too far..
@@tobygathergood4990 Where do we find your TH-cam channel showing us how you would do it.
Why do I always find myself hollering at the tv, trying to get Chad to do something the way I think it should be done???
Chad is good at building cars , but the simple stuff it hurts me lol but he will get it
@@tobygathergood4990 yes I do too lol, but some things he good at
@@kukuipupule4415 lol
I’m with you on that
Spontaneous engineering
People sure can be critical. Bad Chad is really, really good at working with what he has. It's a pain in the butt to run out for bits and pieces when you live in a rural setting and it's not likely the one or two parts stores are going to have what he needs.
All of the critics probably haven't built anywhere close to the amount of duke ass cars that Chad has.
It's easy to sit in a comfy chair and tear someone down.
There was a time I had a 29 Rodster body on a later Ford frame runnin a old Chrysler hemi thru a old Ford floor shift to a Columbia 2 speed rear end. zoomie exhausts, no lights or plates of any kind. It was great for the occasonal very late night quick run around town. Usually took about a case of beer for self and friends to get it moving. It was a blast for 10 or 15 minutes. I think of this old Hup along the same lines. Fun as hell for a short blast, with a little priming to get it going. Hang on tight Jolene, it's going to be rough exciting ride..
Chad you know you could have just pulled the cable out of the barrel, positioned the barrel in the throttle lever, then slide the cable back through the barrel.
the man dont do mechanical.
@@tobygathergood4990 I see some genius in his creative side. He has a good eye and a fearlessness to do anything he wants. Gotta respect that. After seeing all the comments about the holy firewall I checked some of the Race of Gentlemen videos and came across an entry with no floor and no firewall. Never mind the guy running around on frame rails and a motor. Chad is an artist.
Yea...O.K. But if YOU were married to Queen Jolene...Would YOU hardleg-ego something together for her? Then get cheeky when REAL fans tried to give him (and the young'uns watching who don't know better) a heads up? Obviously discounting the twits just mouthing off. There are Mods for that kind of infantilism.
🤟🏽🐻
@@teddyabearo1066 ya know some of his stuff is intended to draw comments in TH-cam. Builds the channel.
I was thinking exactly the same thing. He could have used a drill bit the exact size of the barrel so the barrel would fit in there perfectly.
Make a rod just smaller than the hole in the peddle mech., drill a hole the size of the cable in the rod, insert the rod across two holes, insert cable through the rod, insert cable into cable sheath, done. On the carb end, drill a hole near the bolt head, fasten the cable by tightening the cable to the head of the bolt with the first nut, then fasten the bolt to the carb with a self locking nut so the shaft moves freely.
Love watching yr show. Don’t know why people gripe so much about how the build is going. Enjoy it for wat it is guys. It’s a period build. How it would have been done back then. Don’t compare to how it would b built today. The creativity is great. If u watch u can pick up a few ideas u mite like and use yrself. Or wat not to do. If it bothers u too much watch something else. Above all we all know u armchair builders no more than a actual builder but u really don’t have to keep telling us. Just enjoy the show guys
I do think that some people miss the point. Chad is not a master mechanic. He is clearly self taught and he is showing what the normal guy with basic tools can do if he has the will and the way to build a hotrod in his garage. It's not about copying what he does it's about finding the drive to find your own way including the mistakes along the way.
Um, I’m 30 seconds in and wondering if maybe there was some other way to enlarge a hole? They have these new things called drill bits that may possibly work.
or the nuclear option - the plasma cutter!!!!!
Yup, pardon me while I go hug one of my drills. He is a great designer though.
It is called a drill and drill bit.
I kind a wish he would do something different than playing with the throttle. The last thing he needs to work is the gas pedal. I think he has plenty of cars out in his yard he could take a bracket off of, or at least get some ideas. Plus I admit I would rather watch him cut cars up. I think he has me spoiled with his custom work on the old bodies.
I guess a last ditch effort he could phone a friend. It would be fun if Jim was there. I bet Jim would love to help him. The show just isn’t long enough.
drill a hole through the screw and you will have duplicated the way many small engines are controlled
Hi, I've really enjoyed your videos, and may have a suggestion for the audio problems that keep happening. The transmitter on Chads belt just needs to be received by another receiver that Jolene can monitor while she is filming with an earphone. Just find the frequency that is being used and add another receiver that uses the same frequency. If Chads movement unplugs the microphone, Jolene will not be able to hear him and can fix it. She will know instantly.
Yeah sure thing! 😂😂
The piece you wee trying to fit through the accelerator pedal slides off the cable. Drill a hole to fit that and slide it into the holes without prying the end apart. Then slide the cable into place and through the firewall. Watching you do that job had me shouting at the TV. Less haste, more speed; take a minute longer and think out the options. Perhaps ask Jolene if she can plan a job like that before you attack it.
Hi chad
Do you have a return spring on the gas pedal or as us British would say accelerator pedal?
Where the leak is on the copper pipe might be a cold spot from when you soldered it, it just might need to be reflowed the solder with a touch more fresh solder just to be on the safe side.
You could make a couple of caps so you can cap one end of the pipe fill the pipe with water and cap the other end and check for leaks then when all is good and leak free remove the caps empty the water and fit the pipe to the car.
The car is looking good Chad, cool to see car's being transformed into a beautiful work of art.
I had an antique tractor with a drip and wired a soup can under the drip. It would catch the water and you could put it back in the radiator. And it looked so cool and got a lot of laughs. You all be happy 😊. Brian and Debi
The amount of time and effort taken so far could have been better spent finishing off Jolene's Bugatti. I will be glad when Chad has scratched his itch and finally gets back to doing the things that actually built the channel.
Come on tonsay the bugotti zor any build built this channle is dumb... Him building built this channle...long before his tv show way back to his first magizine article... Get a grip... Man does it his way and thats his way..dont like it go find someone else to watch.... Hes not a mechanical person... He builds cars...
When Chad resurrected the original Bugatti build the subscriber count was in the early 50,000's. He had let Jolene's Bugatti build stagnate for around two years until that point. It was Jolene's resurrected build that got the channel moving. Jolene's Bugatti plus the second Bugatti build quickly accelerated the subscriber count to almost 100,000.
Chad what you could do to make the throttle cable work better is to take two washers the next size larger and weld a spot at the top of the two and a gap on the other side spread it wide enough where the cable will go against the welded side and put it on the bolt. The weld will retain it and the gap will pinch it when tightened.
That little clip you are using for the throttle cable is made like that for a purpose. Drill a hole at the end of the plate, slot it and slide the clip onto the plate. Drill another hole to mount onto the carb manifold. Easy peasy when u use a drill. OK to Weld onto frame, but not motor, brakes etc.
Yikes ...watching Chad continue to try and ream out the hole with a tapered die grinder bit for the cable fitting was making me crazy. I kept screaming at him... "Use a drill bit for Christ sake and just drill the correct size hole!" {sigh} That kluge of a fitting has to be one of the worst jury rigged things I've seem him do yet.
With all the work both of you are putting into the gasser, it would be nice to grind down the body wields and paint the car. Even if you make it look relict?
Thanks keep up the good work, You are truly an inspiration. Thanks
Your soldering just needed more heat. The tip of the blue flame is the hottest part, but to fill that gap with melted solder perhaps MAPP gas as one guy suggested might work better. And wrap a wet rag around the other end of the fitting of course, so it won't unsolder.
Put two small teaspoons of black pepper in radiator. Should seal leak. This is what was used in
20’s. and 30’s to stop leak in radiators. Cheap fix and it works.
I had a look at some of the TH-cam Pine Tree Jamboree footage. Awesome looking cars….yours is gonna fit right in….’and’ stand out. A few of the “that’s not safe..Can’t believe you’re going to let Jolene drive it” crowd ought to take a look. Some of the cars are basically a seat on a chassis 🤣.
@@65cj55 your comment is ridiculous. Have a look at the type of racing they’re doing and the cars they’re doing it in. You lot aren’t about “it’s not safe for Jolene”. You’re all just using that as an excuse for a whinge.
FYI and I'm sure you know but haven't noticed. The radiator fan will pull air from the easiest place it can get it. You have a very big hole at the bottom of your fan shroud and should put a piece of metal at the bottom to seal off the air flow from coming around your radiator instead of threw it.
If you put the burr deeper into the grinder it will run 10x smoother instead of all the chattering and bucking. At the foundry we use to cut the burr shaft off some so it could go into the die grinder all the way if we felt like doing so.
I am looking forward. To seeing Jolene driving across a field soon.
Simply amazing fabrication! I've known old guys who lived through the depressions that taught me working with what you have not groaning about what you don't have just like your doing! Keep up the good work!
Not knocking anything but is the throttle cable connection going to stand up to hard acceleration. Have you thought about drilling a whole through the bolt then thredding the cable through,then looping the cable and clamping it ,then tightning the bolt so the cable can't be pulled through. Love your work guy's,enjoy it every night😍👍
They are at it again, Chad! I don't see any of the commenters building cars here, but they sure can tell you, you don't know what you are doing! I know it doesn't bug you, you know what you are doing. Keep on keepin on!
A small room off the shop would be a good place to put your compressor so it's quite in the shop
It looks like the radiator is turning out well, this mechanic work is yet another experience that not all creative body work designers have to deal with!
Brad that bolt you used for the throttle cable drill a hole through it and put the cable through it then put the bolt in the hole on the carb and tight it down the bolt will try to pull the cable through the hole where the bolt is and it will hold it
A perforated firewall , no matter how convenient it may be , is still a terrible dangerous idea. If Jolene is truly the love of your life. Her safety should be the first concern and a perforated firewall is inherently dangerous
Sorry Chad, I love your bodywork skills and the finished results are brilliant but , your throttle cable fitting skills need some development. That two minute job turned into a marathon. A set of drills would have given you a round hole the cable would fitted in seconds, You could have then removed the round pivot from the cable nipple, slipped it into the throttle pedal without having to spread the pedal lever. Then pushed the cable through that and through the bulkhead. It got worse, surely removing the head nuts and clamping a bracket of some sorts under them would have been better than welding that piece to the nuts?
Chad, the one who builds the most radical vehicles in the history of car building wins! Oh guess what? YOU WIN!!!
I think you may have been a bit quick at chopping the throttle cable adjuster that goes thru the firewall as you cud have just moved the nuts further along and it would have worked and then u would still have full ajustment there incase needed later Goodluck keep it up
Can't wait to see this machine run under it's own power with Jolene behind the wheel....good luck Guys
Put one tea spoon of back pepper, and it well stop the leak without stopping up everything else.
Hi Brad and Jolene, your doing a great job. You could wrap the gas cable around the nut and tighten it. It would make it more secure. Can't wait to see it start up and move around. Take care.
I think I would had used a drill for the cable hole in firewall
leave the rear brakes in for safety and uses a dual master cylinder for her safety . if the front brake fell you could still stop in a control manner
Get yourself a cooling system pressure tester to find leaks. Well worth the money
Finally figured out what those poles in the yard are for. If you ever decide to have a red carpet event you'll have something to keep the crowds back with.
Its so funny Chad cuts everything with a grinder ...I bet he could slice a loaf of bread with one
One thing I can see is using a tachometer RPMs it's running
Love the progress, pretty anxious to see Jolene ripping down the track.
Needed a grill to fire 🔥🔥 it up lol . Steaks and chops 😋 mmmm good 👍 . Lol ! Thumbs-up on getting it up and running! Cheers and thanks! Thumbs-up Chad and Jolene 👍 great job! Aand a Thumbs-up for Doug 👍.

It's Friday ! Actually it's Sun 2023-10-08 for me ;Watching unseen past videos ; very interesting and love watching you all having fun also ! On to the next, My ache ache, eyes lol
All the heat coming off that engine is going to roast the driver.
The suspense in unbelievable
Use a drill bit man, instead of a die grinder. They normally drill a hole through the middle of the bolt for the wire to the carburetor throttle. Than when you tighten the bolt it locks the wire very securely.
I have watched for a while now and it seams to me u need to buy a drill. The cable came out of the end push it through and put the cable back in. Yes u said repeatedly there are holes in the fire wall I don’t need to cut one is it worth getting your wife burnt to save drill a couple of holes last thing if you put yourself out there u have to take the good with the bad and stop sooking. Ps please buy a hanky
what a fun project. Every part is using creativity to design on the fly and make it work with stuff already in the garage . Reminds me of the old days when i drove beater cars and did what ever it took to keep them going on the cheap .
Is that a 6 volt generator???
Your using 12 volt battery etc.
The rubber seal has probably hardened after being stood for so long in the water pump that is Chad and jolene. It may seal its self up once it gets hot again and makes the seal soft .some of the water pumps have a small hole in the metal underneath the pump
Thanks to Downtown John for his help too bad no crimper or soldering iron. See you next time. Thank You
It would’ve been so easy to use a drillbit the same size of the barrel and drill out that Excelerator linkage, slide the barrel in, and then slide the cable through the barrel. Just saying,
Making it work.
Fun times!
She won't need a Speedo. Just have someone run beside her wearing a fitbit and they can tell her how fast she's going. 😁 Not all the really fun rides have to go exceedingly fast. Gonna be fun.
Gettin close for a test run 👍
Looks good.
getting really exciting now
Looks good 👍🏽
Looking good !
It’s Friday Hope everyone had a good day hot rod looking good
Good to see you are still on the car? Which one you might ask.....Great stuff Chad thanks!
Put the barrel in the hole and then feed the cable through. You would not have to spread it out at all.
How is jolene going to push the starter button when she gets strapped into the seat ? Put it on the console by her side
Great job Chad and joelen
Good luck on the fire up Chad.
Drill a hole through the screw on the carb and push the cable through and use a jam nut. That would fix you linkage cable problems...
Chad drill a hole in the bolt up close to the head of the bolt big enough for the cable to go through then put the washer on and tighten up the nut. It will pinch the cable tight.
What a death trap!
Nice work
I hope Fina gets her treats. What a great loyal friend.
Awesome job
great work,
you can screw the gas cable between two washer on the carb.
If you crinkle one washer the cable could not fall off.
Another great video thanks
That firewall is going to make it hot as hell riding in there. Maybe sealing up all those holes with a welder?..
Just watching from home, but I think making the throttle cable bracket would have been easier to weld the bracket to the top of the metal above the perferrated firewall. All in all, a great "It's Friday video.
Everyone is excited! Can’t wait to see that rod, Rock n roll!
Thanks for all the ideas!!!!!
Reminds me of the good ol days, getting mates together working on cars
Yep reminds me of when I was 12 or 13.....
Killin' me! Just use the drill! The firewall and gas pedal cable holes would've been easily done in 1 go!
Greetings from Vegas
Chad I have been laughing my ass off every damn time you find out how freaking awesome that firewall is for mounting accessories... I don't think people understand how funny you are. Thanks for teaching us a dying art...
The audio, despite no mics, was very good today.
A drill bit may have been a better choice to enlarge the hole. Let's hope it's only one small pin hole to fix. Jolene does a fabulous job with the camera.
I hope theres no engine fire. Flames be getting inside the car.
What about a fire blanket on the firewall? They don't weigh much.
Chad and jolene did you tighten the propshaft up in the end. We only see you put them in with your fingers??
I know we have coat hangers already involved. I'm still waiting for some bailing wire to be used somewhere! "Get-er Done" Not a show car is an understatement.
Good morning from Australia
Awesome car
I truly believe that Jean windfield should leave his business to you because you would be an exact match to take care of his legacy because you have proven to be just like him, brilliant natural talent and the personality and build amazing art out of your brain.
Chad is remarkable as is Gene. I believe this reality show! No cuts no edits. Flimed in real time.
Folks need to take into consideration that this is pretty much a "one event vehicle". Then put away until next year's race... Here's hoping Mz Jolene takes home the 🏆.
Don't let Chad forget to put a return spring on the carburetor
