Imagine you and Steve cruising side by side in your ‘55’s. Don’t let it leave your place until it’s finished. How many more chances like this will you have? All the stories you have shared and all the experience you have gained throughout the years has led to this moment!
I'm with you on the GoPro's! My GoPro 9 is finicky and can fight me if I am not consistent with it. I bought it new at Target for $199. It's not a bad deal and they have them at this sale price every 2 or 3 times a year. I wished GoPro had a decent competitor that would keep them on their toes! Glad you and Steve are good! I, too, do not have a money tree growing in my backyard and Steve's situation is totally understandable. Great to see the videos too! Keep up the great work and I will keep watching!
You do nice work. My 55 would give you a run for the money but you do OCD in a good way. Steve needs a break. But when its done he will be like a mom that forgets about the pregnancies' and the delivery. It will all be worth it.
Rob, cousin Steve’s car went was good from far but far from good until you addressed many backyard butcheries. Cosmetically the car was presentable…it’s now an awesome representation of a professionally prepared car! Lastly, I do not possess your skills but have restore many cars most have garnered awards and I would not pick up a wrench for less than 100 dollars per hour…hell the amount of shop supplies and collected parts you have used out of your own stash is incredible. All that to say Steve will get over the sticker shock when this beautiful car is complete. Cheers buddy.
On the dash insert, use polycarb. We use it on robot parts, and they cut with bandsaw nicely or drill it out and will not break easily. We offen mill it out with a cnc router or layer tape on it and use a jigsaw with a fine tooth blade. It sounds like you and Steve have a good understanding, especially since he is putting a lot of money into this car after getting ripped off by the last mechanic butcher. Still, it would be nice to get it together and hear it run again, but it is what it is. Now finish that front-end, lol.
When people watch the playlist and see how bad he got messed around by the previous shop and see how far you’ve taken it I’m sure enough people will be willing to chip in. No one is better qualified than you to finish it. And no one else should finish it other than you!
To you couldn't of got hold of temper glass or even the glass they use in windshields. I don't even know if anyone makes any of the glass I was talking about.
I'm wondering if you can call 📞 GoPro and tell them your problems with the cameras 📷 maybe if they would be willing to repair them or give you one at a cheaper price than normal maybe at there cost. Hope you like this idea 💡 and I would say that your not taking no as answer.
Has the engine been run on a run stand yet? It would be a shame to have the car so close to running only to go back in storage again for who knows how long.
Well I never thought of him as bad person I was just throwing out an idea 💡 so he could realize the work that went into his car and just showing that your not out to take advantage of him. Anyway if in anyway if I came across with what I was saying I apologize from the bottom of my hart. Remember family is thicker than blood.
I am not sure what your cousins mechanical abilities are.maybe he could come to your house and put in some sweat equity to keep cost down and just finish the car.

Thank you for your expertise!

Your 55 would give Steve's 55 a run for the money?
Enjoying these daily uploads, man!! Keep up the hard work. Hope the GoPro continues to work so you can keep up the frequency 😊
Don't get used to the daily, Tuck. Lol
