More controversy... fabricating side mounts for 1936 Hudson Terraplane
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 04. 2023
- It's been decided... we want to add dual side mounts on the front fenders to give the car more style and class. Since the doors are suicide style we need to be strategic in where we cut the hole in the fender so that the door is still able to function. Like always - there's no set plan, just go with the flow 🛠

Chad does your mind get any rest ? Your mind is crazy artistic ! This concept of that Hudson now more appealing to the world ! Jolene thanks for your time and effort on filming editing and all sorts of work ! Chad couldn't do this without you you give him balance !Thumbs-up Jolene and Chad great build and content !
Hi there, I'm a Carpentier but once in a while i do work with metal and what really worked for me it's first paint the metal with muriatic acid, let It for a few minutes, then paint it with hydrogen peroxide, the Rust Will show immediately. Me and my son watch the show every day for a long time. You guys aré the real deal. Cheers from Patagonia Argentina.
Man I love your content, The Chat though has too much negativity. You would think by now that the followers would know that you are a professional and can think things through on the fly. You are an inspiration to all of us who watch to learn new things. I am 71 and still building Rods . Plan on starting another this spring if the wife don't object to much. You and Jolene are the best, keep it up and never give up. As always great camera work Jolene. I hope Chad finishes the Bugatti soon, you deserve it. Thanks for reading.
Love it when Chad says " I don't know what I'm doing but I'm going for it! "...
Looking good Chad!
😂😂😂❤ lol
True hero 🎉
Hey Chad, really like your work.
I recently painted a bike tank to look old and used.
If you don't mind, I would like to give you a tip for worn, distressed patina paint.
Use some carpet foam cleaner to cover a few spots before painting.
After that wipe it away and take some rags or towels soaked in vinegar.
Put some salt over a few spots, cover them with the vinegar towels and let them sit for a couple of hours to days.
When the rust is to your liking, take a brass or steel brush and have some fun in different spots. Randomly Cover it with some carpet cleaner foam and paint again.
The finished piece will look distressed.
Keep that artistic work going.
Best regards from Germany.
Have a good one 🤙🏼
Keep in mind that the tire will be wider when mounted and inflated. It's going to look fantastic!
You're right.
there was a time when they were just the tires without being mounted on a rim, probably going back a decade or two from this cars life
that's exactly what i was thinking too
Chad you can always sand the paint by hand with 400 to 600 grit until you get back to the floor then add the vinager to get the rusty look you are looking for!! 🥹😁👍
Perfect the air will hold the tire in place. Or maybe just tack weld the wheel to the fender.
😂 I’m afraid to cut it as I grab the cutter. I know I will never be able to find a fender like this…. Knowing he can build one out of scrap metal.
Brilliant creative craftsmanship!
Going to be the nicest Hudson 4 door terraplane out there... IMHO..already is stylistically. Everyone has an opinion, myself included. However, if you listened to what the chopnotzi,s suggest, it wouldn,t exist at all. Thank,s for the smiles, chadnjo...keep up the good work..l look forward to your vids everyday. Thanx again.
The trim piece you had taped to the fender skirts looked nice. Maybe the round feature of it could be in line with center of tire under the skirt. Just to break up the large surface and add a little bling.
im Addicted to Chad and Jolenes way of getting things done..no bullshit ,no crap. no cutaways,, just straight in your face construction mistakes and all [if any]..other channels cannot come close
Would have been better to make a tire sized cardboard circle, and trim that to the profile of the fender. You’d get to see exactly where the slot should be positioned before cutting.
Hey Chad, a good reference to go by is, always add about 1in for the sake of a tire on a wheel with air..Beautiful work!! I'm getting ready to start working on a 65 Buick Skylark 2dr hdtp sports coupe.. Going with a blown big block buick on 29-10.50r15s. Custom paint and audio. Haven't decided yet on suspension kit. But it is definitely going to be a sweet machine when it gets done..
As your harshest judge Chad 😉 I can see where your going with this..
I like it .
Must look at you coming back to OZ and doing some CZcams builds.
Costings wages would need to be looked at.
But I know you have a massive Aussie fan base that would support it
Dreamtime stuff.
This project started with...
What the hell is Chad doing...
Now it looks the goods...
Cheers.
Dougo.
Oh, this is a nice touch, Chad & Jolene. Might want to mount & inflate the tire before buttoning it up and welding the inside pan. It will be a little wider, yes? This will look beautiful!
The color match looks good to me Chad, not bad for a fabricator 😂
But I’m half blind so🤷🏻♂️
Great job as always Jolene putting us right there 👍
Hey Fina❣️
Boy would that car look unbelievable if the whole car was painted that color.
MartyZ in NYC
Hey Chad you would really enjoy a big bench and especially if it was level for welding. I use a 8 ft by 16 ft bench for upholstery . You will wonder why you waited so long to build it . Rick
& his back will thank him later in life
The color of the Hudson was called Ocean Blue. You can find the different color mix info on the color charts. Most Hudsons used 4 different color paints to make the final color including Ocean Blue. Sidemounts are a great addition. Most sidemounts sit with the exposed part of the wheel a few inches above the centerline of the wheel. So a little less than half the wheel is inside the fender but it depends on how deep the fender is. Also to achieve this they mount them close to the door opening so door can still open and have them sit back in fender to stay clear of front wheels. Your opening width is not enough to clear the tire with air in it.
Freakin Mr. Wizard over here.
Looks good Chad just go over the paint with a scotch pad and dull it down and it will look perfect !
Normally, the tops of the sidemounts should be no higher than the beltline mouldings. If you make them level with the top of the hood, they will be too high and will look odd.
That's the problem with the Terraplane compared to the Hudson Eight, the sidemounts were too high due to the shorter front guards not leaving space for the sidemounts to be mounted lower down because they'd get too close to the front tire.
@@JoshB-jt7xe In the '30s, sidemounts, and even most rear mounted spares, were under metal coverings that were painted body color. What if Chad got a set of old covers, cut them down some so there would be adequate clearance, and just mounted them as dummy sidemounts?
@@cristianabarsuglia629 that is s great idea actually.
Interesting mod that should work. GO for it Chad. Jolene continues to amaze with the camera.
Chad your vision of this car is on going .your talent is tremendous.your explanation of everything you do is spot on .the love of what you do is insurmountable can't wait to see this going down the road one day .and Jolene thank you for all your work videoing and editing the transition of this beautiful Hudson Terraplane watching your every move from eastern ontario
Hey chad, for the vinegar next time, use a spray bottlle, put on enough to wet it, let that dry, and repeat til ya get the desired effect. And maybe steel wool or scotch brite, you could dull that skirt, and then polish it more to remove whatever paint ya want, to make the more realistic edge and the spray bottle the vinegar there. dig the skirt shape tho, after ya put on the tails, to match the body lines.
Always nice to see Mz Jolene's handiwork while filming. She inserted the photo showing the side mounted tire at just the right moment. She has become such a consummate pro. Kudos, Mz Jolene!
Spare wheel looks great. I'm a big fan of a balanced look, a spare on each fender is a going to look wonderful. I know it was an optical illusion, but the car looked stretched when you dropped the tire in the pocket. Going to be a high rollers ride for sure. Move over Bonnie and Clyde, Jolene and Chad are taking over.
CHAD YOU ARE A ARTIST, CARS ARE YOUR CANVAS, AND EVERYTHING YOU DO TURNS OUT FANTASTIC! THANK YOU AND THE CAMERA PERSON FOR POSTING SUCH WONDERFUL THINGS! A PERSON COULD LEARN A LOT FROM JUST WATCHING YOU BOTH! THANKS AGAIN
That tire will get a little bigger when you put it on the rim and put some air in it, don’t make the hole to tight, width wise
Chad been watching this progress and was wondering whats next!! I was imagining this and moving the headlamps into the guards too but kept my yap shut coz theres a lot more perspiration than inspiration and you got both in spades mate
Need to mount & air up tire. It will get wider.also need to drop it down where the top of the tire is even with TOP of hood side panel. Everyone to their own ideas though. You & Jolene do great work.
I am not a big fan of fender skirts on from 30’s and 40s cars like this, but can you put the paint on? It made all difference in the world really looks cool now when you put the trim on it will look really good 👍 you convinced me its looks like they should came on car start mind blown!!!!! awesome 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🎥great camera work as usual 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍
I think it's just a little too high still, especially considering this old beauty's got a chopped roof. If the top of the tyre was level with the beltline or mid-way between the belt line and the top of the bonnet (hood) it would be far more pleasing to the eye and look like it's going fast while sitting still :P
Love ya work still Chad, keep up the great cinematography Jolene 11/10 :P
sand the skirt in places,,, brush the bare metal with MURIATIC ACID,, rinse with water after 5-10 minutes and it'll rust... i do hardware for my old motorcycles when i want old patina.. good work both you and jolene
I painted some flames with muratic acid on a bare metal Caddy hood a few years ago ,, it was cool ....
Chad, don't forget the drill weep holes in the spare tire holder. And if you spot Prime the welds with your finger where you did the chop and some of the paint will stay on with the primer and the other paint will Rust in the other areas where there will be bare metal. If you put the blue over that where you primed it the paint will stay and where you don't prime it it will Rust that way it won't look like line of rust where you chopped it. You're doing a great job just my suggestion. You and Jolene go
I think this is my favorite project so far. I know it’s a four door, but I think it looks better long and low.
Won't it have to be a little wider after the tire is mounted and aired up?
Still waiting to see the 10,000 dollar windshield in place😊
Keep watching 😊
You can buy new windshield rubber for these cars. Or why not just glue some clear plastic in place? It would look like a windshield
Don’t forget a drain-hole at the bottom of the tire mount for rain and washing…
The rim of the spare wheel should be almost slightly imbedded in the fender.
Looking great Chad, I think if you use a scotch brite pad on your skirts it would dull them and blend the new paint, in fact i would do the whole car and flat clear it, i also think if you add peroxide to the vinegar it will rust like now, good luck..
Looking to do side mounts to my MK3 Humber Super Snipe, watching this one very closely, good on you for giving it a go. As for adding patina I always put yogurt on bare metal to make it rust faster.
Don't forget to factor in the wheel in full lock, plus articulation of the suspention in those positions.
Chad, I got to give it to you. When you said skirts I thought “uck” but boy does it give that old gal class. The fender mounts are going to an even higher level. Enjoy watching you create.
Controversy?
Good go for it, its art, sometimes controversy happens.
Keep on keeping on.
If we're really honest the only wrong is doing nothing
Yes, they no longer make 1936 Hudsons anymore but he great news is...
It's a car, its made of steel & paint. They still make that stuff. 20 years time Chad & Joelene might want to radically change the car & new art starts again.
Go for it, go hard. Bring the art because I wouldn't want you to do it my way, I'd be bored. I want to see how other people do things, what styles they like or what style they've developed.
Y'know if you're not sure how to do it, it just means doing it right takes a little longer & who hasn't enjoyed trying, re-trying, learning & eventually creating something you really really like, you look at yourself & go wow, that worked out ok.
Think its wise to listen to critics for technical advice but otherwise remember...
NO ONE EVER ERECTED A STATUE TO A CRICTIC (and with that I'm going to think up with a statue to a critic might look like hahaha)
Let the painter paint, its his canvas
This is quickly becoming one of my all time favorite builds 🍻
All these design additions make the car look even better. It’s becoming gangster now!😊
All you need now is some of those 10 inch curb finders , would really set it off 👍👍👍👍
Make sure you make it wide enough for future tires.
This is goin to be a cruiser....definitely liking it better and better...its the total package....looks good Chad and Jolene..cya tomorrow 👍
Side mounts are gonna be great! Even more gangster! Awesome car.
A Master Metal Fabrication man cane make anything . U got this, Bad Chad ! And Jolene is documenting it, and Fina ok’s it !
great job as always Chad, could you not leave then long n put like a buckle laches on them to attach another one to go over the top to incase the hole wheel like in the picture?
I would add the spare on one side only... at least for a time. You can always add a second later down the road.
Agreed
Or maybe add a spare on the trunk lid? And a roof rack! Dual antennas for sure. And some sort of way cool homemade hood ornament!
I wonder how many people out there that think that Chad spends 1 hour a day, and gets payed extravagant wages, for the hour, and pixies come by and weld and grind the rest of it,😂😂 people make me laugh 😂😅 doing a great job Chad and Jolene, wasn't a real fan of chopping etc, but you have made another masterpiece, hope we get to see yous cruising in it, make a lot of the sceptics think 😢 why can't they do it 😂😅 thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones
Very interesting video. Throw some dirt on the fender skirts and they will be a better match to rest of the car that is dirty. They are way to shiny seeing them on the video.
I like the skirts, patina painted on is OK too, but living in the Rust Belt, I hate rust, real rust, I spend my whole life removing rust I would not have subjected those nice skirts to the elements. I get itchy every time we see the Bugatti outside rusting up again. I wanted to see something put on the 4 door pick up conversion.
Really, REALLY Like how the Hudson project is coming along!!
The aerodynamics of these cars amaze me. I'd like to see wind tunnel comparins with today's cars. Take a car like this, give it a good drive train, seatbelts and drive it daily.
Chad you are an automobile artist ! Keep doin what you're doin!!
Car is looking good. Reminds me of a car you would see in an old time movie. One with a tuxedo and a woman with one of those cigarette’s with the holder thing. Good looking car man.
Years back when i painted, I would but a drop or two of gasoline in my paint to flatten out the color, now i understand they make flatteners to dull up the paint a bit. To get a nice wear on the paint, tie the shirt to a ATV or some field vehicle and drag it around for a bit in the grass and dirt!
The fender skirts look awesome!
This looks so cool love what you have done
I think you were right when you said it needs to come a bit towards the door - say an inch, or a half, off the rear of the slot would take it down and back. But what do I know !
Watching with anticipation on your vision. Going to look great when you are done. Thanks.
Would love to see Chad starting the paint job Bugatti!
same here!! although I must admit to enjoying this build as it progresses...we just have to be patient😂😂
When you wanted to clamp the fender to the tire you should consider using a tie down strap around the tire, over the fender end to end, to hold it down for you. Just a thought
Chad have you any thought to access to the motor? The butterfly bonnet may be a major annoyance to everyday type maintenance. Good luck. P.S. Consider fitting 52/53 Cadillac rear tailight mounts on the guards , The very small fins would suit the body style.
If you put an straight edge across from the front of the cut to the back of the cut and measure at the center of the arch of the fender you get the height of the arch.
That's what the doctor ordered, Bad Chad surgery along with camera work and editor Queen Jolene,, making the holes in the fenders and wheel mounts. Just go for it attitude, gitter done! Why stop at the roof chop,,, weeee haa,, That car still would be sitting in a dark and lonely barn getting ate out by creatures. Chad and Jolene are giving that Hudson a new life unlike me, I woke up at 9 and looked like a -1... 😁
Will be a very unique Hudson, don't forget once the tires is on the rim and inflated probably will grow some on the width.
Spare tire inflation may make tire slightly wider. Be careful!
Just watched you cutting the hole in the fender for the spare. I noticed the tire seems to be a tight fit. If you mount it on a rim won't the tire be a little wider when you air it up making harder to place in the hole. Hope this was a helpful comment.
Love your work and the vision that brings it all together, genius is a humbling thing and you do it well sir!!
Mr Bad Chad ,how l which you would paint this beautiful classic car . That would really bring out its awesome Beauty, and the fender skirts looks great,thanks
Love how you go about figuring things out Chad!!! Watch every one of your episodes. Your a master at fabricating!!! Keep it going!!!😎 Awesome
it's your car does as you like
Iain you are great host. Natural and authentic. Don't change. You are the best!!! It's naturally who you are from your early video and MavTv to now; just be you; all us from your beginning love your unique stly😊
I think it would have been awesome to put them in the back fenders behind the rear tires. It would probably be the first ever to have them back there and the look would be so cool. Draw it out Chad.
The top came out very good and I think the tire mounts are a great idea.
The car looks rad as. When you started the chop I thought slam it dummy lights splats and side spares. And you do it. The car looks awesome.
Looking nice. Just wondering are you going to try to find the steel rings and outside covers. For the side mounts. In my opinion it's a good look. But it's not my car . Just something I happen to like
Side mount would look better a little lower in the fender. Fender well will need to be wider to fit the inflated tire. Nothing has been so badly altered that it can't be "fixed."
If you don't like the look that's fine. Remember they are out there making content for folks to enjoy. If you're really that offended then turn off the computer and go out to the shop and work on your own car.
As always, Jolene is doing an awesome job on the camera.
Thanks Chad for showing us in real time how to fabricate and so much more. Texas loves y'alls channel!
For the weather cracks on that Whitewall if you take rubberized undercoating after taping of the white portion and spraying it will fill the cracks as long as you aren't going to drive on them.😮😮
Looking relly good chad,,it’s relly going to inhance the looks of the car,, one thing,,think about the tire width of the tire when it’s inflated ?? Go for it chad, the skirts are looking great too, hi to Jolene an fina,,luv ya’s,,👍👍😀
wheel skirts look good-just a little sanding and rusting would help
The paint job looks good on video. The rear fenders turn out 👍
I like what you are doing to the Hudson !
You should put a tub bottom in the fender to get support for the tire&wheelwell!
I like it. Side mounts are great.
It needs a Fenton sun visor now !
I'm wondering if he is making it wide enough for when the tire is blown up.
Looking good keep it up the two of use
Don’t forget to drill drain holes at the bottom of those spare tyre guards 🤘🏻
Great video thank you very well done I have always liked spares in the fender dose it get cover. Thanks again cheers to ya.
Excited with you! Doing impressive things there!
Great seeing an expert at work.
Lightly Mist the skirts with some matt black and then wipe it with some rags before it dries... it will blend the fresh paint in with the gritty look of the rest of the car.
Be careful Chad, the tire will change dimensions somewhat when installed on a wheel and inflated...........
Coming along very Nice Chad and Jolene Happy birthday Rod 🎈🎂🎈
TROY THEY CHOP HALFWAY THEY CHOP
THAT'S A SWEET CHARIOT FOR JOLENE
I SURE MISS THOSE THICK CANVAS TOPS
THOSE CARS WERE SO COOL
PRETTY GREAT CAMPING
You can always weld the piece back in but I hope it work cause that's what you want to do an it's your car bro!
