- The "Tinmama" build series continues with some control arm work. Including new bushings, smoothing the arms, narrowtrack spindle kit, and adjustable balljoints. This is a 1940 2dr chevy sedan that I am building for my mom. It has been sitting in our backyard since 1990. Dad always had hopes and dreams of building it for her, but he never got to it, so in 2017 I started on it, full time. The car was complete November 2019 and was a top 12 finisher at SEMA 2019, but the build videos will be coming slowly over the next 6 months. Thanks for watching!

Tinman maybe you are upset about SEMA cacellation but thank you to bring it out to Isanti car show. Such a nice tribute for a long build. Totally different style than the Wild Torquey but looks amazing next to each other. Keep it up and hopefully Frankensteiners show still up this year!
Found you channel thru Vise Grip, love your work
Thanks brother! Appreciate the love. Derek is a good fellar!
Hello my friend. How is your dad doing? He is still in my prayers. I hope you are doing well also.I am building a diesel stretched chopper for SEMA . I hope to see you there if it is still on. Take care brother.
Love all the awesome content. The diversity in terms of music
I agree a little tighter is better then looser LOL. Really nice work! Love POR15 didn't know they did a high heat paint!
They have all sorts of different kinds of paint! Check out their website. Link in the video description
Just saw the doomsday car at the car show today, that's crazy
Great to see all the excellent work you put into this build for mom ! So how has it gone so far ? any things you are not happy with or that you had to redo ?
Well, had a lot of paint issues and still not happy with it. and a couple other small things I'll have to redo. But that's all part of the game! Haha
It is a great looking car ! Really unique ! Great days and health to you and crew !
Do you think any tall ball joint would work in similar applications? Also how do you normally apply that poly bushing lube, everyone says something different. Some people and instructions say to apply to all areas that come in contact with metal so outer sleeves, inner, and even outside edges in the case of leaf spring bushings. Other people only apply to the inner portion of the bushing with the grooves. Reason I ask is cause I'm having to dissasemble everything just to regrease all because of the squeaks.
I only put the grease on the inside of the bushing. Haven't noticed any squeeks. Usually squeeks with poly are from misalignment more so than the lack of lube. Best bet is probably contacting energy performance and see what they say though.
And no you can just use ant balljoint. Has to be specific for the vehicle you're working on. Too many different sizes, shank tapers, etc.
Yo Tinman How have you Been? I hope you are still slaying the Custom Game How's Moms Build coming? I want to see your Progress but mostly just hope you are doing good?
Hey! Thanks for the kind comment. I'm still working on cars. Tinmama has been done for 2 years. The finished product can be seen on my other social media (Instagram/facebook). I'd like to get more videos out, they are just so time consuming.
What brand air bags are you running on the front end? Also that truck is awesome...👍
Which truck? Haha I'm running airlift dominator 2500 airbags all around
@@Tinman2Kustoms thank you , that's the same bags I ordered too, I gotta find some bolts for them now... I'm bagging a s10 truck I ordered 1/2" compression fittings as those push too connect always leak , anyway awesome truck.
@@scottl3739 I've never had a push to connect leak. Just have to be using the right cutter to cut them square and straight.
@@Tinman2Kustoms yeah in a pinch you gotta use a razor or knife...
Lol did you have a sucker in your mouth?
Probably sunflower seeds lol
