ALL the best Roy Kelly. i hope and wish you all the best. Cancers is a horrible thing lost my brother to it ive had it my self and Thankfully pulled through.15yrs ago Ive since then had a lovely daughter thanks to the medication and help i received. i wish you the same good luck story as ive had and hopefully a speedy recovery
When you was fabricating the grill. I knew this going to be interesting project. But honestly it's a piece of art. Impressed. Your attention to detail. The rivets nice look. Thanks for great vid and sharing your work.
Thank you kindly Kaye!
What a pleasure to watch such a talented person.
Thanks
Thanks Phil!
Isn't it great when you learn something so easy Twisted wire. Now I just need to learn to tig , oh and buy one. Love it.
Hang in there Roy and keep fighting. 👍👍😎👍👍
Fascinating to watch if not amazing! So cool to see you put in the time and effort for even the smallest piece. Love your work!! I also enjoy the music for the repetitious sections!✌️🇨🇦
Thank very much George!
Those cockpit reinforcing edges look awesome. You make it look so easy!
Long and big job on this race car.
Bruno from France
You can twist multiple mig wires together when you need thicker rods.
Also you didn't mention that you should pull back as you run the drill to make it straight
Jordan this is getting to the shorter strokes and it is going to be incredible! Roy will be completely chuffed at the shout out, thanks!🙏🏼🙏🏼
Each day chipping away. Not long now!
It's looking great, can't wait to see the finished product, all the best to you and your loved ones
This project is really amazing. It's coming along nicely guys. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep making. God bless.
Excellent job Jordan using the Square tubing nice and strong the radius rods look excellent
She looks good on you Jordan. Awesome result on that steel work too mate. Lovin the music.
Thanks Matt
Great video, really enjoying seeing all the steps going into this build. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for following along Jason
Just gets better and better. Can't wait to see it finished with paint.
Fingers crossed get it in primer later this week
@@bennettscustomsco Fingers crossed. Beautiful looking machine, it's been a pleasure watching it come together. Loving your work.
Absolutely that sounds like a great idea Safety
I can't wait to see the grin on your face the first time you drive this jewel.
Bugs in my teeth forsure!
You fit it like a glove...
Love every thing you do to the "micron"
Amazing metal work and very enjoyable tunes!
Great work as usual Jordan, good to hear that you have a running Flatty to drop in hopefully you wont need to spend a lot of time on the mechanicals. It must be a bugger when the surfs up and you have the racer deadline as well. Cheers
The surf and fishing has been good lately it’s been tough to say no but! I know the pay off will be well worth the sacrifices!
He won’t have to worry about computers and fuel injectors anyway. Just make sure she’s “gettin’ spark”! Lol.
Nice work! You should pick up a little pneumatic belt sander there are a million uses for them but you would absolutely love it for blending those rolled edges
Think I got one in the tool box. Forgot all about it
"bloody perfect" is almost like a local! And Fred F. is amazing, been following him too!
He’s incredible to watch!
@@bennettscustomsco Do you see the stuff Bespoke Coach Works is putting out in Canberra? I have a history in blacksmithing and iron work, sheet metal forming blows my mind! I really love how you work around issues, you have a great future!
Man oh man that is looking good 👍👍😎👍👍. The 20x20 edge banding was definitely the right choice over round. Thanks for all the tips, including how to straighten mig wire 😉 and where to make pie cuts in square tubing to create compound curves.
Nice finished on edge!
Bronze welding has been used for motorcycle frames for centuries - with a correctly designed joint the steel will rip first - Stay safe
Definitely love using it
Even though you are pressed for time you still have an awesome attention for detail. Great build. I hope we get to see you race it.
That’s the plan. Gotta make sure we get there in one piece!
Thank you for the thoughts Jordan! I am a huge fan. Love your vision and techniques!
Hope you’re well Roy! Thank you for the support, means a lot
Thanks for taking us along I learn something on every video.
Fantastic build I’ve been following you ever since I saw you on Make it Custom , love the race car can’t wait for it’s completion and you to win that race. Looking forward to your next video !!
Thanks D fingers crossed if makes it in one piece!
Holy Moly did that come out SWEET! looks amazing!
It’s getting amazinger and amaziner! No words to describe so I made one up. When you describe your ideas for fabrication I know exactly what you mean before you do it, so that is working perfectly. Especially evident when you explained the complexity of the cuts to keep the square stock square around the bends. Great big “AHA” moment for me (and I’m 78 and have seen a few things). Your solving of fabrication challenges by using the tools and materials at hand is a talent that I remember from my Grandparents. They were farmers in the ancient times of hammer and tongs, ingenuity and sweat. When you say you’re happy with an accomplishment I actually know how you feel. I feel the same way for a little while. Thanks for that!
Thank you Gary! Means a lot, really does! All the best
Just beautiful !
Dude...you have got it totally going on. Great metal fab skills and creativity. How does this channel only have 6500 subscribers? Very cool project and look forward to seeing it on the track.
Thank you Eric!
That's because us intelligent people who are subscribers know a GREAT thing👍👍👍👍👍👍
Because it's an Australian channel. The algorithm doesn't assist content outside of continental USA, Canada, UK. Less so if you have a VPN.
OK, your work is awesome! The roadster is awesome, but your music choices will keep me here for ever.
Hahaha good to hear Ron!
Awesome progress. Keep moving forward!
Got to love CAD (cardboard aided design)
Hahaha it works!
Great 👍 job guys I appreciate all your videos and tips
Thanks for following along Danny
Keep up the fight Roy!!!!! Looks like automotive art.....
Hell yeah boys. Coming together!
Looking grate good job ,jeff from England
Its coming along waiting for next sunday 10/10. Enjoyed 😃
Thank you Paul! Next videos a good one!!
Awesome job, the square bar looks nicer than round for this application I think. Audio is much better too!
Thanks for the great feed back Steve.
Excellent stuff!
Great episode thanks mate
Awesome attention to detail looks great
Great work as always. The silicone bronze was a great idea.
Another great videos. Thanks
Amazing job. Well done. Those edges came out fantastic.
A wonderful build...
Awesome job Jordan looking sweet keep up the good work
Thank you Jim
I love this build, so cool!
very impressive kind of job. I'm inspired 😀 thx for the video
Loving this build
Thank you Gary!
Too cool. Nice way to finish the cab. Gonna be a wild little ride
I’ve never used silicone bronze before, but I’d like to try it! Great video as usual
Game changer!
Excellent work!
Superb workmanship as usual, the car suits you perfectly. One thing perhaps drop a few tacks on the square tubing on the underside ? You probably did anyways off camera . Hats off to you Jordan 👏🙌👌👍👍
Yeah did a few sitches every 100mm just to keep it nice and tight!
Looks great
Wishing him all the best
If the pivot point does create an issue with binding you could move it up to align it with the u-joint, then move the pivot of the front rod up also to provide symmetry. Probably won’t notice the 3 degrees difference as much either. Metal skills aside, you have good taste in music too.
Already looking at it, it might change and get mounted into the frame. Haha
Great video ... keep up the good work. I love the progress 🤙🏻
Thank you Will! More to come
Jordan thanks for another video with great progress. When you sat in that thing! your smile become contagious and I began to smile as well and rightly so their brother. Look's pretty dern cool if you ask me. Can't wait to see this thing! all painted up with all its Race Colors and once the engine is in and the exhaust is installed She's gonna look incredible, totally incredible. You must be getting excited there bud. Cheers bruh.
Thank you! I don’t sleep much at the moment becoming excited to know there’s going to be some colour on it soon.
Best episode yet
The best are coming!!
The car is coming along beautifully. You do great work mate. I like the music to. Looking forward to the next show.
I love the music too, need a track list.....
@@tonymalpus7721 Track list in the description for you Tony. Enjoy, and thanks for watching
Track list in the description for you William. Cheers for watching
Looking Good...
Bonza ep as usual Jordan, loving the tunes also. There must be a way to preserve the metal finish? I know you will do a lovely job painting but I can't stop thinking how beautiful it looks natural steel.
I agree but the paint scheme I have in my head should make it look the part!
@@bennettscustomsco I can't wait but orange and black ?
A thought. Not sure if you're bolting the body directly to the frame, but have you considered a strip of rubber or leather along the rails to isolate the body to the frame and additionally create inboard body to frame mounts to minimize any chassis flex to the body. Great project and enjoying all the creative work.
Absolutely. Will be using leather
Nice work, following
Love it
I enjoy your videos also!
"it's pretty annoying to wear".. But you sound great!!
Love the build so far. Too bad Karl wasn't available for with his plasma table. The old way works, but is a little slow.
Hopefully will be making space for one after the race!
Hey Jordan, nice work, been with ya from the beginning, coming out great, you seem to fit in it pretty good....Ralph
Stuff me big limbs in there!
Nice🙂
looking beautiful Jorden, could u use silicon bronze for patch panels to get less warpage and to be able to hammer and dolly it like tig, seeing i only have a mig, keep up the great work.
Dude i didn't want to subscribe to your channel as I'm overloaded 300 + channels subscribed to but ghe work you're doing on this build is outstanding i love the model A grill on the wall hahahahahaha did you make that work of art?
Well maybe it’s 301 now! Haha yes i out the insert in. A girl does the art I’ll find her name. Extremely talented
Make sure you puddle weld those heim/rose joint plugs into the tubes, not just seam weld. Seam welds are notorious for breaking if inside the tube corrodes. .
Absolutely, I should have stated that in the video.
Using the round stock for the cockpit coaming would have looked better. I think a leather covered padded cockpit coaming would look good. It would be laced on the edge of the cockpit like they did in WWI on fighter aircraft.
Great video as always. Could you explain why you cut the roloc cubitron sanding discs?
BA dude!
Awesome work and craftsmanship as usual. Karl from Make it Custom suggested that I check out your channel and I see that you don’t disappoint! I am wondering however, the ‘39 radius rods had been bent so that they would be perpendicular to the axle and I thought you were going to do the same. Was the bend in the part that was for the ’39 for aesthetic reasons or to reduce stress on a cast iron part? Just wondering. Keep up the awesome work and I hope you have a blast racing with your custom racer!
Just watched the video your brother did on his Triumph. How’s the progress on that going. Super cool with you both racing!
When you finish this beast come over to nsw and give me a hand with a willys overlander coupe with suicide doors..its one of three made with suicide doors by holden carriage works..
Done
@@bennettscustomsco sounds like a plan..lol
fuck yeah dude!
In all honestly, this is the best video series I've seen in a while. genuinely pumped when I see that notification of a new video. love your style, vibe, how much detail your showing in thinking through the decisions your making. so inspiring. I'm signing up for a tig course that starts next month as a result of these videos encouraging me to stick a boot up my ass.
Trying to figure out what to do with the UK laws around open wheel cars also, not easy.
oh yeah... get those forest green T-shirts back in stock. I want to give you some money
Thanks Ash! Means a ton! Stoked for the Tig course will open up all sorts of doors! You bet mate we have some new stuff coming out soon.
Wasn't scrutineering yesterday?
Certainly was
did you set the rear pinion angle before welding the rods to the rear end?
Hard to change pinion angle with this type of mono leaf set up.
What sort of speed do you think you will get
I would think a heim joint at the rear of the radius arm would solve any binding issue.
🙂👍👏
That funny looking "B" in his name, in German is pronounced as an "S".
Looking Good. It's Getting There.

Not long now Dennis!
Axle articulation is limited suspension design…
No more fluffing about mate.
Fluffins over haha
A bit disappointed that you fabbed the "excitement" part. Most youtubers I subscribe to do the same thing. They make sure they say "excited" or "super excited" at some point in the video. I guess it must be a rule, or everyone watched the same How To make money on CZcams video. Otherwise, good video as usual. Good luck.
Can’t quite understand your comment, but excited or excitement is in my vocabulary, and this particular project has me excited everyday to work on it, if I wasn’t I wouldn’t do it.
@@bennettscustomsco C'mon, Bro. You know I'm not talking about the satisfaction and joy of the project you're undertaking. I'm referring to the "I'm excited to show you this tip...". I think you even made sure to say "excited" twice. If you tell me you haven't noticed other youtubers making sure they say, "excited" in their videos, then I know you're pissing on my leg and telling me it's raining. Cheers.
