Aftermarket Patch Panels are JUNK! Can We Make Them Fit? Rusty 1966 Chevy C10 Restoration
Vložit

- Today we are back on the 1966 Chevy C10 restoration installing a cab corner, tweaking some aftermarket panels to fit better and finished up the patch panel welding on the passenger side. Also, we'll dump some oil down the cylinders on the siezed up 6 cylinder engine in our 1953 Chevy Truck

Just keep working on the old junk. That's something we can relate too. 😂
I'll probably still do a bit of that haha
After that last hairpiece is gone, Allen and Poe are going to have to take turns riding on your head. Thanks for another great video.
Hahaha! I'll have to remember to trim their claws first!
Ima liking your brand of sarcasm! I’ve been messing with hotrods over 50 years! I enjoy your work and the kitty’s!
Haha thanks, I'm glad you enjoy the show and cats!
Good to see the CAR quality control team is still employed.
Thank you for the in-depth explanation of the haircut situation! This is critical stuff, indeed. It almost ranks up there with what brand of empty beer cans might be in the background of whatever you are filming.
Also not relevant: Nice shirt!
Cheers from a fellow cue-ball.
Always a relief to know that people are paying attention to the things that really matter! Stay tuned for beard grooming tips and other hard hitting journalism.
The hair is a distraction... See that's all everyone is talking about and failed to notice that Kyle swapped trucks halfway thru!
Kyle, you are a savage! I have 5 you tube channels that I follow almost religiously. Cold War Motors, Carter Auto Restyling and Half-assed kustoms. Hats off to our neighbors to the north! If you don't take your hat off, I totally understand!
Hi William! Thanks for following us Canadians on CZcams!
I think Mr Carter is very modest about his skill level
Nahh I'm a hack!
I don't care what anyone says the floor welding was amazing. Best thing since the second season of Matlock.😅😅😅
Wow that's quite a compliment!
Sorry to hear about the cheese dip incident Carter. Nice “T” shirt you got there 👍
Thanks!
Good idea switching to hair styling. I bet a welder could make some great perms once you get the technique down.
Dear kyle, thank you once again for an informative vid. I must also say how, over the last couple of vids, I have been admiring your hair. I too have been thinking of going for the escaped convict look, you have made my mind up for me. I`ll stay as I am. Best of luck, Paul.
Ok, turn the comments off! None can top this one. Well played sir.😅
Hey Paul! Sounds like you made the right choice!
I'm glad to see even an experienced person makes mistakes!
Cab corner came out good! For not caring so much!
Nice T shirt!!!
It's a great shirt!
You do better body work by accident than most people can do trying their best! I am glad you cleaned yourself up although, I may have caught head lice just watching your videos.
Thanks and sorry about the head lice
Wow I was completely off , I thought you lost your hair on the last jacket fire 🔥 😅😅 😂😂
Wildebeest ear hair is flame retardant, so I've never had that problem!
Wednesday videos are good. 👍I'm on my second cup of coffee in Seattle. Those TIG welds are sick🤘I'm super impressed you just up-and-fabricated that floor panel with hammer smacks.
Thank you Scott!
Yes do a will it run please. Watching you do metal work has about giving me enough encouragement to try and do some lower cowl panels on my truck
You should definitely get those lower cowl panels installed! Thanks for watching!
I just can’t wait for the next episode 🫥
I can haha. Thanks for watching!
Appreciated the real time welding
Glad you enjoyed it!
great work. Nice to see makeup and hair budget has increased. Sorry about the balding issues but I wouldnt have known if you had not mentioned it. Yes, work on that yellow truck. I like round ones better than the square ones... ok then.... thanks for sharing
It only took me 3 years to save up for the hair cut! Haha. Thanks for watching!
I don’t know much about body work , but I know a lot about working with my hands. You sir are a master, & I love the quirky sense of humor as well.
Love your show
Thank you Dave!
Epic man! You had me laughing with tears 😂! Your humor is fantastic
Haha thanks, I'm glad it made you laugh!
With you I'm never amazed. I'm usually terrified. I thought you set fire to your hair and lost it. 🤣Thank you for the vocabulary lesson. I've never heard the word "glorp" before. The word I use for your projects is conorculated. Cheers!
Us Saskatchewan folks ain't too good with big words like conorculated!
Another entertaining video Kyle.
Waiting for the next installment of amazing metal work and your humor.
Thanks! More coming soon!
Hi Kyle. Great job on the floor pans. I have never met a Cat yet that didn't like to have their neck scratched . Has always I liked and shared. All my very best to the whole Crew. Meaning the Cats also. : )
Thank you Bobby! I think you're right about cats enjoying neck scratches!
Thanks for another , Brother !!
Thanks, Scott. This guy is a comic genius. :D
I'm glad you enjoy this nonsense!
Those cheese dips that’ll do it every time Good video tho man 👍
Thanks!
I only watch for the fashion and grooming tips.
Then you'll love the upcoming content on this channel! Haha
That was some majestic metal massaging right there. Nice!
I'm an Aussie and would be happy to help out with the toupee conundrum but the choices over here are limited to things foreign (obviously) to you and may not be to your liking. You never know though. If you feel like a daring exotic change I could hook you up with a hairpiece made from the bumfluff of a Brisbane Bunyip or the ballbag hair of a Darwin Dropbear. My personal favourite and and strong recommendation though would be the phallic fur of a Wollongong Wombat.
Choosing either of these does come with 1 little drawback though. It's not insurmountable so no need to panic. Should you choose to don one of these fine follicle masterpieces, you will need to start consuming the famous and very Australian, French Onion Dip. Granted it's no cheese dip but it's not bad on some Jatz Crackers. Cheers.
I thought the drawback was that you have to collect the donor hair yourself.
@@JackBWatkins Bunyips and Dropbears can be problematic for the uninitiated or even just the inexperienced. Wombats however are friendly creatures who have no issue with the plucking of the phallic fur at all. Its one of the reasons I recommend them so highly. That and the fact that it's just such nice hair. I get complimented on mine at least twice a year.
@@victorbitter583 I really appreciate your expertise in these matters, but I think I will just keep wearing a hat and I can get one without using shears.
@@JackBWatkins It's up to you mate, no worries. There are some fantastic deals though atm on hair pieces made from the pate of a Parramatta Platypus if you shop around.
Otherwise, spring sales are on and you wont find a better time to get yourself the iconic and very stylish Akubra hat.
Always a good laugh as well as top class auto repairs and delightful cats. What's not to like ?😊
Personally I'm not a fan of the host. Haha thanks George!
A wildebeest hair toupee I’m willing to accept…but you at a cocktail party? Now that’s ridiculous.
I don't get why no one ever believes that I'm not a member of the socially elite.
@@CarterAutoRestylingI’m not sure, but I may agree with your statement.
I just today got my passenger side front floor panel fit & tacked into place...so far, it's the first patch panel I had that much touble with & alter as much as I did...thing definitely wasn't stamped out for a 1969 model... but I finally made it fit...had to actually cut out a section of the panel because it was too wide to even fit in the truck, let alone go where it was supposed to go... I'll finish welding it tomorrow... only took me 3 days to get it to fit...
Yeah they can be a hassle sometimes! I hope the rest of the truck doesn't put up as much of a fight for you
I've learned a lot from the passenger side... it's been close to 3 decades since I struck an arc, but it's starting to come back to me now that I've got most of one side of the truck floor done... I'm starting with what will never be seen once covered, that way I can get in plenty of practice before I hit the important stuff... and you always start with the passenger side first, that way you don't have to look at your first attempt every time you get in the truck... Lol!
The ear hair of the wildabeast isn't available anymore, but allegedly the pubic hair of the samsquanch is! Darn that cheese dip. So delicious yet so treacherous!
So sorry that you became frightened and panicked in the store!
I'll get over it!
Best wishes on the new Hair Restyling channel! Can't wait to see all the used and NOS toupees! #HairRepair #HairStyle #HairRestoration Cheers!! 😎👍🏁🏁🛻
Coming soon!
Great welding on that floor pan, takes a lot of time but that's what restoration is all about. Nice touch with the KITTIES, alway's appreciate the cameo appearances by the 2 SWEET HEARTS, just a purrrfect addition.
Haha thanks! The cats are the true stars of the show
Great work. Thank You
Thanks!
Darn cheese dips!
Nice T shirt, lol. I'm wearing mine today too.
Right on!
Toupee lost in the cheese dip! That is absolutely hilarious! Thanks Kyle for keeping it unique!
I'm glad you got a laugh out of it! Thanks for watching!
Well I don't normally notice other guy's hair do LOL, but since you mentioned it. I think the new to pay definitely looks a lot better than the old toupee. And I definitely would love to see that old yellow truck get back on the road. Thoroughly enjoy the channel. God bless
I'm glad to hear that you enjoy this stuff. I can't wait to start on the yellow truck!
The new hair style is good! Keep up the great content!
Kyle...To pay or not to pay that is the question...Signed 'Bill'👀
Hi Kelly! How did you know I owe money to Bill?
Thank you for allowing me to watch you suffer Kyle, it really warmed the cockles of my heart😊
Haha glad to hear that David! More suffering coming soon
Quite the follicle dilemma .. have you investigated the possibility of using Richardson ground squirrels as a hair source? Of course you would be restricted to a crew cut and or flat top toupees. Both styles work for the Marine Corp, so I think the ground squirrel route may work for you.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'm looking into that now!
Well done 👍
Glad you came clean on your hair. I thought you were spending weekends in the local jail house.. for some law you broke about having junk trucks in your yard. Glad to hear it was just the cheese dip. I hate it when that happens also.
Nice to hear from someone else that's been there!
You may think you are wasting your time but I love watching you do the job properly, but at the same time within limits. Sure someone could spend months expertly shaping scratch built panels, but we know most people will use aftermarket repair panels and you are showing what can be done with them. What I really hate is seeing someone tacking them in then splating seam sealer over the edges saying "It won't be seen and it is what it is".
Thanks, but "won't be seen" and "it is what it is" are kind of my mottos around here! Haha
Cheese dip should be offered ony in dispenser cans for that very reason! Discuss an amicable settlement with the caterer - before an embarrassing court trial...
I'm working on that now! Hope we can avoid the courts!
Damn Hollywood ! I thought that was a cat on your head. 😁
That would be animal abuse!
I see you are sporting a coldwarmotors "T" shirt . I hope those guys can dig through their many fine vehicles for some extra critter hair and send it to you at no charge to ease the pain of the GMC deal .
They tried sending me a mouse nest, but the post office "lost" it. So sad!
@@CarterAutoRestyling At least @coldwarmotors made a heartwarming attempt to "Restore" your emotional well being only to be knocked back down by an unorganized postal service that just don't give a damn. That would have made a cozy hairpiece. Keep on Truckin"
The frigging cheese dip! Well, my only comment on hair styles is that it is important to preserve the hierarchy of the organization. So in this case Upper Management is very fuzzy-looking, while the worker class looks more shorn. So in order to maintain decorum, it will be best for you to appear more like a jarhead than a shaggy dog. Then everyone will feel satisfied that the workers are in their place working, and Management is lollygagging around, as they should. :)
Got to keep management happy!
@@CarterAutoRestyling Well, if there is one thing that is obvious and unchanging, it is that management is having a good time!
"This engine ran at some point" Ha ha ha ha
We’re wearing the same shirt! I don’t think you need to worry about your hair piece. From what I hear the young Saskatchewan Wildebeest are not like the older generations. They tend to be much better groomed down there, if you know what I mean. If you are willing to settle for more southerly Wildebeest hair then you should still have an ample supply.
P.S. I chipped in a couple US Pesos on the old Patreon.
Thanks Jon, that's very kind of you!
I thought it was finally summertime in Saskatchewan.
I like the real time welding !
I'm glad someone does!
Your hair looks fine. Mine is shorter than yours. Keep the hat on, the sun will burn your brain. But I guess you already know that. Really enjoy your video's. Keep them coming.
Thanks for the tips!
Just go over to Winnipeg and sneak up on Dan @ DDs speed shop with a pair of scissors and take what you need LOL
Haha!
Nice shirt. Just like mine.
Cool!
Have you considered Saskatchewan seal skin fur? No, wait, I think the Government banded that hunt too. Best of luck! ;)
That's been banned since the early 90's!
I think that chicken truck spent an extended period of time setting in a chicken house with the hood open and the valve cover off. I did not mean that to sound harsh. Maybe I can say this because it looks remarkably like the engine in my old car. Anyways, I think that when you turn your head and tack weld with the MIG rig, you do a much better job than me when I'm looking at what I'm welding! And I watched some of your newer videos and can see the improvement in your jacket from when this video was made. I need me a jacket like that! It's a common trap the half-wits like me fall into all the time. We think if we had the same equipment (in this case the jacket) as a skilled person, we would also be very skilled.
Nothing that Bondo can't solve! We love Bondo
Nicely done!!!
LOL Kyle Great Video and Work
Thanks John!
That yellow 3 window would make a great section project. A fellow could cut about 3 inches. Or 75 CM horizontaly out of the body. This might look awesome if the top remains unchopped above the belt line. If the top does get chopped the rear window can remain uncut and the bottom could be dropped to the belt line. AD trucks are sweet. I am so glad I never sold mine.
Yup that's about the plan! 3" section and about a 3" chop, back window left stock height and moved down or only slightly chopped to avoid the mail slot look.
@@CarterAutoRestyling Will there be any room for chickens?
As I’m watching you convert electricity to heat I’m thinking”I’ll bet his power bill is high!”.
It sure is!
well i was rolling on floor see your hair and so i thought about looked in mirror and copied you. now i light headed . i was crazy too. even bought head warmer too but not giving my work jacket.
Keep up the good work cause you are one of the best fabrication guys around, thanks for good content.
Thank you!
Absolutelly, I would like to follow the process you will follow to get that old engine running. Thank you
Thanks. Great stuff as usual 👌
Hopefully your homeowners insurance isn’t watching when you set your random fires.😂😂😂
Yep.......I'm quite sure that Randall has just exposed his jealousy. Lord knows he could sure use some Carter Hair restyling. 😂
Hey I heard that...😆
@@shedbythetracks 🤣😂
The jealous haters are always trying to bring me down!
Give one to Scott, he needs it more than you;)
I appreciate the real time. Its nice to get a sense of how fast/slow each tack is and your gap between. Quick question though, if you were worried about warpage, do you go slower, gap them more, cool them off? Do you have a preference for a patch panel?
I have a few videos on the channel showing how I weld in patch panels. Here's one that shows tig welding and mig welding techniques czcams.com/video/vPi6hrS5nns/video.htmlsi=FLu0eTscyqmomq4k
I’ve never been able to pull off a toupee. But I’m happy for you
It's not hard, you just grab and yank.
@@grabthar1944 I never thought of that 😂
Happy to help😉
@@grabthar1944hahaha!
My hair started slipping off the top of my head at 18 and pretty much stopped when it got to my face.
At 63 there's not much left to slip any more.
Try to keep in mind, that a lot of us are watching you because we hope and pray to someday to become HACKS... Plus we look to you for tips on shop attire. You have a responsibility to us HACK wanna bes to show us the way. So some day we can can also be discusted with the outcome of our work.
I'll definitely keep that in mind!
Hi Kyle!
Hey Robert!
My mom used to cut my hair and say that if I didn't like it, it would grow out. I have worn hats ever since.
Haha!
Hey, in the spirit of waste not what not , I have glued all the hair I comb off my tuxedo cat and I think itmakes a pretty good wig. I will be sending it as soon as possible.
Get that Bondo sponsorship back. Short hair filler makes a great toupee glue.
awesome video,The moment at 17:09 i am all too familiar with -burned tip? out of wire? or birds nest on wire spool? you did a great job with poorly fitted after market stuff-looks factory
Thanks! I replaced the liner recently with one from Amazon and it's already acting up causing the wire to get hung up.
I shear my mop of curly hair in May, after letting it grow from August TO May. It is a nice break, taking 5 seconds to wash , after 5 minutes at full mop.
Got an idea Kyle...go chrome dome on top and slather or strap on a bit of cat nip and Edgar, Allan and Poe can take turns sitting on top of the ol' cabeza. Give it some thought. Sounds good to me.
I'm definitely considering it!
It is quite strange how these panels were made correctly 50 plus years ago without computer assistance.. just good old-fashioned hard work.
Dem Aftermarkt ist es schlicht nicht erlaubt die Form genau zu kopieren.
Da könnten noch Designpatente oder ähnliches existieren.
We don't have any wilderbeasts here in Nevada but one creature is plentiful is the skunk, so I'll pick up a number of roadkills and package them up and send them on to you. The white stripe should give you an aura of sophistication and attract large numbers of hot women. You can skin them and glue the pelt on directly to your head in one piece.
Wow thanks! I can't wait to receive them!
Don't feel too bad. I don't have any pride in your work either! On the rear joint between the rocker and cab corner - quite a few have fully welded a seam and used a cutoff wheel to simulate a factory seam. It may not work that well in your situation as it would on horizontal seams.
Yeah I've done the faked welded seam on a few muscle car "restomods" in the past. Silicone bronze rod works good for that too. Now I'm lazy and entitled so I just hack everything with seam sealer.
Thanks for sharing,, 👍🌟👍
I don't have any toupees to send. Would you wear a squirrel pelt instead?
Hey! I resemble that remark! LOL!
I'd consider it!
Younger viewers may not realise that chicken truck hood props can serve as a substitute yard broom at a pinch.
Nice work.
Now let's warp it!🤣🤣🤣
An important step in any repair!
I thought that toupee was made from the hair of the Legendary Bumble of The Pas Manitoba. It’s famous for drinking beer and eating cigarettes.
i love these videos keep going you are very talented
Don't know why everyone is razzing you for the hair style Kyle (style and Kyle rhyme). I think it gives you a sophisticated look that says "I'm here to weld but am up for a night on the town..." That cranky old guy with The Shack On The Tracks could learn alot from you! 😆
I've been trying to teach him, but he's really set in his ways!
"real time" welding videos give us novices something to think about... God bless.
I'm glad you weren't completely put off by it, Paul!
The real time floor welding was actually pretty instructive. It shows the timing in between welds to let it cool a bit. Very cool video again!!!
Yes, Id love to see you get the Ol' chicken truck to break loose if possible. Love the hat.
