00:00:22,879 --> 00:00:26,159
This is a 66 Belvedere the Troy turned
3
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:29,519
out back in 2015. it's made its way back
4
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,289
into the shop for a Fresh coat of paint
5
00:00:31,290 --> 00:00:34,500
but I thought it might be worth showing
6
00:00:34,501 --> 00:00:37,019
this car because it's set a couple of
7
00:00:37,020 --> 00:00:39,780
Records this car is an absolute monster
8
00:00:39,781 --> 00:00:41,640
and it's 4 800 pound half didn't keep it
9
00:00:41,641 --> 00:00:43,859
from running sub 10 second quarter times
10
00:00:43,860 --> 00:00:46,200
at a drag week which means not only did
11
00:00:46,201 --> 00:00:48,539
it have to get itself there it still had
12
00:00:48,540 --> 00:00:51,059
to do the race as well very impressive
13
00:00:51,060 --> 00:00:54,120
stuff and when it comes to the standing
14
00:00:54,121 --> 00:00:56,698
mile this car has gone over 208 miles an
15
00:00:54,119 --> 00:00:56,697
hour despite its 4 800 pound half than
16
00:00:56,698 --> 00:00:58,258
limited tire size
17
00:00:58,259 --> 00:01:01,380
and it did all that thanks to its twin
18
00:01:01,381 --> 00:01:03,149
turbocharged Hemi
19
00:01:03,150 --> 00:01:04,979
it won't be setting any records here
20
00:01:04,980 --> 00:01:08,340
today though because there's no engine
21
00:01:08,341 --> 00:01:11,339
the engine is getting completely redone
22
00:01:11,340 --> 00:01:13,380
and when it comes back trust me I'll be
23
00:01:13,381 --> 00:01:15,420
taking it out for a drive
24
00:01:13,379 --> 00:01:16,140
but for now the priority is to get it
25
00:01:16,141 --> 00:01:19,320
out of the paint shop and make room for
26
00:01:19,321 --> 00:01:21,599
one of Troy's New Creations
27
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,879
I took the opportunity to help my buddy
28
00:01:21,599 --> 00:01:24,599
Alex out by welding up a fuel tank for
29
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,669
his personal project
30
00:01:26,670 --> 00:01:28,739
a notchback Mustang
31
00:01:28,740 --> 00:01:31,079
so you got to ask yourself what the hell
32
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,179
is wrong with a guy who builds hot rods
33
00:01:33,180 --> 00:01:34,978
all week and then goes home and builds a
34
00:01:33,180 --> 00:01:35,729
hot rod in the evenings and that's the
35
00:01:35,730 --> 00:01:37,978
case with Alex he's building a 65
36
00:01:37,979 --> 00:01:40,618
Mustang and this is the gas tank out of
37
00:01:40,619 --> 00:01:42,959
that car and it's being modified to
38
00:01:40,618 --> 00:01:43,500
accept uh you know a fuel pump and a
39
00:01:43,501 --> 00:01:45,630
different sending unit and things like
40
00:01:45,631 --> 00:01:48,060
that because it's fuel injected so Troy
41
00:01:48,061 --> 00:01:50,578
worked out a deal with Alex where he was
42
00:01:50,579 --> 00:01:53,399
going to weld the tank and that
43
00:01:50,578 --> 00:01:53,398
translates to I don't really cost any
44
00:01:53,399 --> 00:01:56,939
money because I'm not getting a paycheck
45
00:01:56,940 --> 00:01:59,820
so somehow now I'm doing this and this
46
00:01:59,821 --> 00:02:02,219
is a 22 gauge stainless tank this is a
47
00:01:59,819 --> 00:02:02,999
pretty difficult stuff to weld I once
48
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,399
met a girl who's a professional welder
49
00:02:03,780 --> 00:02:06,960
that told me there is no such thing as
50
00:02:06,961 --> 00:02:08,879
things that are hard to weld
51
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,618
I disagree with her I'm not as talented
52
00:02:10,619 --> 00:02:12,539
as she is apparently but I'm going to
53
00:02:10,618 --> 00:02:13,139
stand by that so what I really think is
54
00:02:13,140 --> 00:02:15,598
they're expecting me to fail and they're
55
00:02:15,599 --> 00:02:17,280
going to laugh at me and speaking of
56
00:02:17,281 --> 00:02:19,439
people who built cars moose has built a
57
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,360
couple even though he builds hot rods he
58
00:02:21,361 --> 00:02:22,979
still went through that
59
00:02:22,980 --> 00:02:24,330
not me though
60
00:02:24,331 --> 00:02:27,695
once I hang up the old
61
00:02:27,696 --> 00:02:35,696
apron for the day I go home and watch TV
62
00:02:36,959 --> 00:02:39,780
back to the patch panels actually cut
63
00:02:39,781 --> 00:02:42,420
out a slightly thicker metal so there's
64
00:02:42,421 --> 00:02:44,520
got to be decision made as to which
65
00:02:44,521 --> 00:02:46,620
metal is going to sit on top of the
66
00:02:46,621 --> 00:02:48,720
other one and I've chosen to make this
67
00:02:48,721 --> 00:02:50,580
thicker piece the patch panel sit this
68
00:02:50,581 --> 00:02:52,560
way on top of this metal essentially
69
00:02:50,580 --> 00:02:53,040
we're still going for a butt weld but
70
00:02:53,041 --> 00:02:55,800
got to kind of split the difference
71
00:02:55,801 --> 00:02:57,959
between the thicknesses so that's what
72
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,180
I'm doing right now and the idea is to
73
00:03:00,181 --> 00:03:02,580
just get it all tacked in and then go
74
00:03:02,581 --> 00:03:04,620
back and start adding more weld which is
75
00:03:02,580 --> 00:03:05,819
going to increase the shrinking which is
76
00:03:05,820 --> 00:03:07,439
going to mean
77
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,349
that there'll probably be some hammer
78
00:03:09,350 --> 00:03:11,979
and Dolly action going on
79
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,978
he's in my head
80
00:03:19,979 --> 00:03:21,597
come on Cougar
81
00:03:21,598 --> 00:03:24,359
come on because we're focus on the
82
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,129
flight deck I can't map
83
00:03:27,130 --> 00:03:30,040
I can't use my head
84
00:03:30,041 --> 00:03:32,055
this right employees I'd be
85
00:03:32,056 --> 00:03:35,399
looking nice to them
86
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:36,899
steady hands
87
00:03:36,900 --> 00:03:40,050
so here the patch panel is a little
88
00:03:40,051 --> 00:03:41,097
oversized and
89
00:03:41,098 --> 00:03:44,009
I was okay with that I mean it kind of
90
00:03:44,010 --> 00:03:45,809
intentionally did that because once it
91
00:03:45,810 --> 00:03:48,298
gets so close to just being barely
92
00:03:48,299 --> 00:03:50,039
oversized
93
00:03:48,299 --> 00:03:50,849
the next step is to take too much away
94
00:03:50,850 --> 00:03:52,859
and then you've got a piece that keeps
95
00:03:52,860 --> 00:03:55,019
wanting to fall in the tank or you're
96
00:03:55,020 --> 00:03:57,299
trying to make a you know well the
97
00:03:55,019 --> 00:03:58,080
difference between a giant Gap so I'll
98
00:03:58,081 --> 00:04:01,140
go back now and take away a little bit
99
00:04:01,141 --> 00:04:03,900
of material until it relaxes and finds
100
00:04:03,901 --> 00:04:05,699
its place in between the base metal and
101
00:04:05,700 --> 00:04:07,450
uh
102
00:04:07,451 --> 00:04:09,199
The Gap that will be there soon
103
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,039
that we don't have a tool sponsor I sure
104
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,480
would like to sing the Praises of some
105
00:04:25,481 --> 00:04:27,079
of the equipment I'd use today
106
00:04:31,759 --> 00:04:34,859
what's probably best for the tank is
107
00:04:34,860 --> 00:04:36,809
that I go ahead and um
108
00:04:36,810 --> 00:04:38,550
back Purge the inside of the tank so
109
00:04:38,551 --> 00:04:40,500
basically push all the oxygen out and
110
00:04:40,501 --> 00:04:42,630
replace it with something like argon
111
00:04:42,631 --> 00:04:44,370
which is inert and that'll keep any
112
00:04:44,371 --> 00:04:46,140
sugaring from happening to the back of
113
00:04:46,141 --> 00:04:48,418
the weld it'll just make for a nicer
114
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,199
product especially on a gas tank you
115
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,909
don't know a bunch of particulates and
116
00:04:50,910 --> 00:04:52,800
debris falling down in especially not
117
00:04:52,801 --> 00:04:55,319
when they're as hard as a piece of
118
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:56,099
stainless because that could really ruin
119
00:04:56,100 --> 00:04:57,899
an engine's day
120
00:04:57,900 --> 00:04:59,879
and then I was thinking well that's
121
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:02,579
going to cost a little extra because
122
00:05:02,580 --> 00:05:05,638
you know you're using the extra gas
123
00:05:05,639 --> 00:05:07,439
using tape lots of it and then I just
124
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,360
found solace and the fact that Troy's
125
00:05:09,361 --> 00:05:11,219
paying for all of it so
126
00:05:11,220 --> 00:05:12,960
who cares I'll just do what's best for
127
00:05:12,961 --> 00:05:14,219
the gas tank
128
00:05:14,220 --> 00:05:16,569
try I'm using extra tape there's lots of
129
00:05:16,570 --> 00:05:17,659
it
130
00:05:23,038 --> 00:05:25,679
How's the patch come on it's all right
131
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,198
um
132
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:30,239
I just can't stand how inconsistent the
133
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,758
thin is I make excuses all day long
134
00:05:32,759 --> 00:05:35,458
but that's good I'm ain't gonna leak but
135
00:05:35,459 --> 00:05:37,758
how many fingers am I holding up
136
00:05:37,759 --> 00:05:41,278
four four now you got a metal finisher
137
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,279
yeah that's what I did on that other one
138
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:45,810
when I patched it
139
00:05:45,811 --> 00:05:47,160
Square
140
00:05:47,161 --> 00:05:49,019
I did do it see that's the deal you had
141
00:05:49,020 --> 00:05:50,340
a squared
142
00:05:50,341 --> 00:05:52,799
okay you know a lot of work we've got to
143
00:05:51,660 --> 00:05:53,520
adjust it from the wrong one that's what
144
00:05:53,521 --> 00:05:55,560
happens when you're in the movie
145
00:05:55,561 --> 00:05:58,319
industry too long I know do you want me
146
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,379
to go back anywhere no no I don't know
147
00:06:00,380 --> 00:06:01,629
it's sales thing
148
00:06:01,630 --> 00:06:03,959
this won't be this should hold it from
149
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,969
sinking there's a little bit of shape in
150
00:06:05,970 --> 00:06:08,639
here it should hold it from sinking hope
151
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,319
so
152
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,660
This time around there were a number of
153
00:06:10,319 --> 00:06:13,410
odd projects going on this is a mock-up
154
00:06:13,411 --> 00:06:15,660
piece of what it actually is going to
155
00:06:15,661 --> 00:06:17,639
wind up looking like and this is just
156
00:06:15,660 --> 00:06:18,419
going to saddle in and take the place of
157
00:06:18,420 --> 00:06:20,619
that and this will be all out of inch
158
00:06:20,620 --> 00:06:22,038
and 5 8 too
159
00:06:22,740 --> 00:06:25,590
Gary was working on a kiwi Indian
160
00:06:25,591 --> 00:06:27,999
replica because the tailpipe was in the
161
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,418
way of the kickstarter
162
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:33,270
so he was given the task of creating a
163
00:06:33,271 --> 00:06:36,010
new tailpipe that would look great and
164
00:06:36,011 --> 00:06:37,579
not be in the way this time
165
00:06:38,759 --> 00:06:41,759
Rick was firming up the trunk lid on a
166
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,219
kugel 32
167
00:06:44,220 --> 00:06:47,037
foreign with all of that going on the
168
00:06:47,038 --> 00:06:50,310
next big thing to come out of rad rides
169
00:06:50,311 --> 00:06:53,100
is progressing quite nicely
170
00:06:53,101 --> 00:06:55,050
the 41 Fleet line has been getting a lot
171
00:06:55,051 --> 00:06:57,090
of attention in his stripped down state
172
00:06:57,091 --> 00:06:59,220
most shops would just hand it off to the
173
00:06:59,221 --> 00:07:01,140
body shop and move on to another project
174
00:07:01,141 --> 00:07:03,959
but this is where the car really gets
175
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,639
attention to detail
176
00:07:03,959 --> 00:07:06,479
earlier in the build I talked to Adam
177
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,939
about plans for getting the interior
178
00:07:08,940 --> 00:07:10,620
done
179
00:07:10,621 --> 00:07:13,530
so on the car itself we're we're past
180
00:07:13,531 --> 00:07:15,869
all the major fabrication the the
181
00:07:15,870 --> 00:07:18,389
removable panels all the doors are have
182
00:07:18,390 --> 00:07:22,258
been modified the hood everything and so
183
00:07:22,259 --> 00:07:24,960
now we're to the point where we're doing
184
00:07:24,961 --> 00:07:26,819
the details that have to do with uh
185
00:07:26,820 --> 00:07:28,978
prepping it to go to the body shop
186
00:07:28,979 --> 00:07:31,199
making sure all of our panel alignment's
187
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,918
nice which we had to do for the doors in
188
00:07:34,919 --> 00:07:37,560
the first place you got it trust me and
189
00:07:37,561 --> 00:07:40,038
um we're doing our final fabrication and
190
00:07:40,039 --> 00:07:43,139
installation of things for the sake of
191
00:07:43,140 --> 00:07:46,199
upholstery work at this point which I
192
00:07:43,139 --> 00:07:46,198
think is another Advantage here is that
193
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:49,319
we're doing all the upholstery work
194
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,759
in-house and so all the Fabricators that
195
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,160
work here have
196
00:07:54,161 --> 00:07:56,430
upholstery experience as well but the
197
00:07:56,431 --> 00:07:58,139
fact that we do it we can put a lot of
198
00:07:58,140 --> 00:08:00,240
things in place that otherwise maybe you
199
00:07:58,978 --> 00:08:00,810
wouldn't think about if you weren't the
200
00:08:00,811 --> 00:08:03,360
one that was going to have to do it
201
00:08:03,361 --> 00:08:05,519
later definitely I like like Troy always
202
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,740
tells me and don't worry about that
203
00:08:07,741 --> 00:08:10,799
that's the interior guys problem yeah
204
00:08:07,740 --> 00:08:10,799
well that's true that's me yeah so I'm
205
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,649
gonna do everything I can to put it in
206
00:08:13,650 --> 00:08:16,560
place so that when we do get it's really
207
00:08:16,561 --> 00:08:20,280
not that big of a deal you're blowing
208
00:08:20,281 --> 00:08:23,098
the scene here bud it is a big deal
209
00:08:23,099 --> 00:08:25,198
and just ask them so some some of the
210
00:08:25,199 --> 00:08:27,560
things that we're doing now uh we have
211
00:08:27,561 --> 00:08:29,440
this the door seal mocked in place now
212
00:08:29,441 --> 00:08:32,459
this tack strip will go up here and
213
00:08:32,460 --> 00:08:34,860
attach uh just offset from where this
214
00:08:34,861 --> 00:08:38,278
Flames at the seal sits so this sits
215
00:08:38,279 --> 00:08:41,339
just up here the headliner comes down
216
00:08:41,340 --> 00:08:44,338
Staples to this tack strip but we need a
217
00:08:44,339 --> 00:08:46,320
place to land the new garnish molding
218
00:08:46,321 --> 00:08:48,959
that goes between this lip of the seal
219
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,680
and the headliner so these Tabs are
220
00:08:52,681 --> 00:08:55,439
going to get welded in between the two
221
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,019
so that a screw can go in between the
222
00:08:58,020 --> 00:09:00,300
seal and the headliner so that we don't
223
00:08:58,019 --> 00:09:01,080
have an extra tall garnish molding to
224
00:09:01,081 --> 00:09:02,880
get the screw up here where there's a
225
00:09:02,881 --> 00:09:04,619
hollow above the door
226
00:09:04,620 --> 00:09:07,139
um so all those things are taken into
227
00:09:07,140 --> 00:09:09,660
account there's a little notch in the B
228
00:09:09,661 --> 00:09:12,240
pillar here where that tack strip comes
229
00:09:12,241 --> 00:09:14,159
down as far as where the headliner stops
230
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,080
and then the headliner actually gets
231
00:09:16,081 --> 00:09:18,600
glued around this quarter window and it
232
00:09:18,601 --> 00:09:20,519
has a modified original uh bezel that
233
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,259
goes around here that will mimic the
234
00:09:22,260 --> 00:09:24,959
shape of that for the door just this
235
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,299
ledge here is just even that's a yeah
236
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:29,579
wow and so that's recessed a little bit
237
00:09:29,580 --> 00:09:31,859
into the pillar so that this panel
238
00:09:31,860 --> 00:09:34,200
coming across here because the headliner
239
00:09:34,201 --> 00:09:36,419
just floats across this flange and it
240
00:09:36,420 --> 00:09:39,600
gets stapled inside here then I'll have
241
00:09:39,601 --> 00:09:42,059
a molding the finishes this out but the
242
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,870
level of this is flush with that so that
243
00:09:42,871 --> 00:09:46,259
the headliner doesn't have this little
244
00:09:46,260 --> 00:09:49,139
Ripple in it of course it is yeah how do
245
00:09:49,140 --> 00:09:51,600
you guys sleep at night I don't okay
246
00:09:51,601 --> 00:09:54,480
that makes sense I really think you guys
247
00:09:54,481 --> 00:09:56,519
have thought of everything I uh we'll
248
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,639
find some things we didn't I'm sure but
249
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,919
yeah I mean the bucket of stuff that
250
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,559
you've considered is a pretty full one
251
00:10:04,560 --> 00:10:06,419
yeah the interior isn't going anywhere
252
00:10:06,420 --> 00:10:08,699
until the paint is done though and
253
00:10:08,700 --> 00:10:10,740
Warren and his crew were all over it of
254
00:10:08,700 --> 00:10:10,739
course starting with a primer
255
00:10:10,740 --> 00:10:14,389
foreign
256
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,158
clear coat are applied the pieces of
257
00:10:20,159 --> 00:10:23,159
trim are actually sanded with the car
258
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,319
while it's in primer now the trim pieces
259
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,599
are coated in Copper which is a process
260
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,820
that happens before they're Chrome
261
00:10:29,821 --> 00:10:31,680
plated almost kind of a primer of their
262
00:10:31,681 --> 00:10:33,959
own when the pieces are sanded together
263
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,624
it makes for a fit and finish that's out
264
00:10:34,625 --> 00:10:42,259
of this world
265
00:10:42,958 --> 00:10:45,930
there's hardly any transition between
266
00:10:45,931 --> 00:10:48,129
the body panels and the trim when
267
00:10:48,130 --> 00:10:50,758
following these steps
268
00:10:50,759 --> 00:10:53,460
while the paint and body work was going
269
00:10:53,461 --> 00:10:56,440
on Adam took the opportunity to start
270
00:10:56,441 --> 00:10:58,399
building the new seats for the car
271
00:10:59,820 --> 00:11:02,789
it's not uncommon for a hot rod interior
272
00:11:02,790 --> 00:11:04,919
to look really great in state of the art
273
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,870
but oftentimes it's just a bunch of
274
00:11:06,871 --> 00:11:09,660
leather and foam covering pieces of
275
00:11:09,661 --> 00:11:10,950
plywood and fiberglass
276
00:11:10,951 --> 00:11:13,200
that's not the case at rad rides Adam
277
00:11:13,201 --> 00:11:16,680
actually reconstructs the seats and what
278
00:11:16,681 --> 00:11:18,869
I would call kind of a Circa 1960s way
279
00:11:18,870 --> 00:11:21,899
he uses Springs he uses Metal Frames and
280
00:11:21,900 --> 00:11:24,659
actually builds a comfortable seat from
281
00:11:24,660 --> 00:11:26,459
scratch
282
00:11:26,460 --> 00:11:28,019
while out of the car they're a
283
00:11:28,020 --> 00:11:29,699
completely stand-alone sub-component
284
00:11:29,700 --> 00:11:31,799
much like an engine if it were out of
285
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,720
the car it takes a completely unique set
286
00:11:33,721 --> 00:11:36,609
of understanding to build a seat from
287
00:11:36,610 --> 00:11:43,439
scratch it's no simple task
288
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,140
Casey jumped in by building the center
289
00:11:46,141 --> 00:11:48,839
console there again this is where most
290
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,419
hot rods fall short because they're
291
00:11:48,839 --> 00:11:52,140
constructed of plywood and fiberglass or
292
00:11:52,141 --> 00:11:55,259
other materials that don't stand the
293
00:11:55,260 --> 00:11:57,959
test of time like metal does not to
294
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,759
mention it's usually like a hot rod
295
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,799
builders trying to make a fashion
296
00:11:59,759 --> 00:12:02,549
statement with the center console so the
297
00:12:02,550 --> 00:12:04,529
goal is to keep it functional and
298
00:12:04,530 --> 00:12:06,899
understated but to look elegant and fit
299
00:12:06,900 --> 00:12:08,099
the car
300
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:11,519
this requires a lot of Transitions and
301
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,419
- reverse curves that are hard things to
- get out of a piece of metal
302
00:12:15,539 --> 00:12:18,659
I'm sure Zach from Z rods was a welcome
303
00:12:18,660 --> 00:12:20,999
sight when he came in with a reworked
304
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,179
plenum for the 41's power plan the
305
00:12:24,180 --> 00:12:26,879
original one had way too much branding
306
00:12:24,179 --> 00:12:26,878
on it and just looked silly Zach's done
307
00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:29,399
a lot of the heavy lifting because
308
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,939
Lawrence is pretty much running the CNC
309
00:12:32,940 --> 00:12:34,900
machines that Troy has 24 hours a day
310
00:12:34,901 --> 00:12:38,050
Zach catches the Overflow I'll grab a uh
311
00:12:38,051 --> 00:12:39,930
valve cover just one of them I think I
312
00:12:39,931 --> 00:12:41,880
got the gasket pulled out of one on the
313
00:12:41,881 --> 00:12:44,219
on the rack backer we'll just see what
314
00:12:44,220 --> 00:12:46,049
it looks like with that on there
315
00:12:46,050 --> 00:12:48,120
we pulled out the valve covers that
316
00:12:48,121 --> 00:12:50,399
Lawrence made and were able to see how
317
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,440
the parts look together and I'd say they
318
00:12:52,441 --> 00:12:54,360
nailed it
319
00:12:54,361 --> 00:12:56,399
let's take this opportunity to Flash
320
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,179
Forward just a little bit here it takes
321
00:12:57,180 --> 00:12:59,069
a long time to get this stuff done and
322
00:12:59,070 --> 00:13:01,229
we only have so much time in an episode
323
00:13:01,230 --> 00:13:03,958
so I'll start off by saying once all the
324
00:13:03,959 --> 00:13:06,368
trim was squared away and the body work
325
00:13:06,369 --> 00:13:08,778
was finished it was time to get to pain
326
00:13:12,059 --> 00:13:15,639
the painted body was brought back to the
327
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,360
main shop for final assembly
328
00:13:19,879 --> 00:13:23,520
and with the fresh powder coating of its
329
00:13:23,521 --> 00:13:25,260
own so was the chassis if you've been
330
00:13:25,261 --> 00:13:27,240
watching the show every other time
331
00:13:25,919 --> 00:13:28,020
you've seen the car prior to this it's
332
00:13:28,021 --> 00:13:30,180
always been fully assembled so it's nice
333
00:13:30,181 --> 00:13:32,159
to get a look at some of the really
334
00:13:30,179 --> 00:13:32,939
detailed things that are you were able
335
00:13:32,940 --> 00:13:35,399
to see with the engine out like these
336
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,209
little pockets in the frame they're CNC
337
00:13:36,210 --> 00:13:37,889
machined and I haven't seen that
338
00:13:37,890 --> 00:13:39,630
anywhere else it's just really sharp way
339
00:13:39,631 --> 00:13:41,580
to do it so they're actually bulkhead
340
00:13:41,581 --> 00:13:43,499
fittings and then the lines run inside
341
00:13:43,500 --> 00:13:45,659
of the frame rail so you don't have them
342
00:13:45,660 --> 00:13:47,519
all over the place and they're carrying
343
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,620
things like brake fluid and fuel or
344
00:13:47,519 --> 00:13:50,370
whatever it just looks really detailed
345
00:13:50,371 --> 00:13:52,110
and if you look at the suspension here
346
00:13:52,111 --> 00:13:54,959
some of it is store-bought for lack of a
347
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,480
better term so you've got a stock C6
348
00:13:57,481 --> 00:14:00,479
lower control arm and then you have like
349
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,479
I said a store-bought drop spindle here
350
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,940
they took the advantage of that for the
351
00:14:02,941 --> 00:14:04,860
lower ride height and the geometry
352
00:14:04,861 --> 00:14:06,570
correction that does but basically this
353
00:14:06,571 --> 00:14:09,060
is all the same geometry that you would
354
00:14:09,061 --> 00:14:10,740
have with a C6 Corvette which is a
355
00:14:09,059 --> 00:14:12,000
proven Thoroughbred then they make all
356
00:14:12,001 --> 00:14:14,459
the adjustments they need so that it
357
00:14:14,460 --> 00:14:16,860
accommodates the 41's weight and style
358
00:14:14,458 --> 00:14:17,700
and everything else that comes into play
359
00:14:17,701 --> 00:14:20,039
with like the upper control arm for
360
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,719
example this has been machined in-house
361
00:14:20,039 --> 00:14:22,499
to accommodate the spring that they want
362
00:14:22,500 --> 00:14:24,480
to run for this car and then when you
363
00:14:23,278 --> 00:14:25,020
look here at the steering arm they
364
00:14:25,021 --> 00:14:27,360
actually had to make these as well
365
00:14:27,361 --> 00:14:29,458
because if they didn't
366
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,209
the relationship from that to the
367
00:14:30,210 --> 00:14:32,759
steering rack would actually have the
368
00:14:30,958 --> 00:14:33,479
potential for causing bumps here all of
369
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,639
that comes into play and it's very
370
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,320
important that way these cars actually
371
00:14:35,639 --> 00:14:38,070
perform as good as they look and that
372
00:14:38,071 --> 00:14:40,920
comes from just Decades of experience
373
00:14:40,921 --> 00:14:43,379
and trial and error lots of error
374
00:14:43,380 --> 00:14:46,019
because Al's been involved right out
375
00:14:46,020 --> 00:14:48,059
huh Lots here you ready to put it in now
376
00:14:48,060 --> 00:14:50,419
- I'll get out of your way all right let's
- do it
377
00:14:51,659 --> 00:14:54,869
The best time to install an engine and
378
00:14:54,870 --> 00:14:58,539
transmission is on a clean chassis with
379
00:14:58,540 --> 00:15:00,919
no body so that is what Alex and I did
380
00:15:02,879 --> 00:15:06,270
Adam's seat frames were done and waiting
381
00:15:06,271 --> 00:15:09,979
to be upholstered by Adam but he's got
382
00:15:09,980 --> 00:15:12,659
plenty of other work to do
383
00:15:12,660 --> 00:15:15,240
he had to continue to make all of the
384
00:15:12,659 --> 00:15:15,900
other interior panels and make room for
385
00:15:15,901 --> 00:15:18,179
the speaker enclosure that's going to
386
00:15:18,180 --> 00:15:21,179
hold the subwoofer behind the back seat
387
00:15:21,180 --> 00:15:22,590
yeah
388
00:15:22,591 --> 00:15:25,260
so one of the things I'm working on I
389
00:15:25,261 --> 00:15:27,870
made these the brackets for hanging the
390
00:15:27,871 --> 00:15:30,300
components here we have a amplifier I'm
391
00:15:30,301 --> 00:15:32,370
making the sub enclosure right now we
392
00:15:32,371 --> 00:15:34,260
have a single sub we're not trying to
393
00:15:34,261 --> 00:15:36,029
you know blast them out of the car or
394
00:15:36,030 --> 00:15:38,519
anything like that but it just fills out
395
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,220
the sound a little bit so right now I'm
396
00:15:41,221 --> 00:15:43,139
just fitting fitting this in here making
397
00:15:43,140 --> 00:15:45,778
sure my tabs and everything line up with
398
00:15:45,779 --> 00:15:48,659
the structure that's in place I'll go
399
00:15:45,778 --> 00:15:48,658
weld some of this stuff on the bench and
400
00:15:48,659 --> 00:15:50,910
then I should have the sub tomorrow I
401
00:15:50,911 --> 00:15:52,770
can cut the hole for that and finish
402
00:15:52,771 --> 00:15:54,690
welding the ends up
403
00:15:54,691 --> 00:15:57,300
the center console was ready to be
404
00:15:57,301 --> 00:16:00,060
fitted and that had Casey going back and
405
00:16:00,061 --> 00:16:03,000
forth making fine adjustments we'll both
406
00:16:00,059 --> 00:16:02,999
the frame to the to the car these side
407
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,340
panels will be upholstered they'll be
408
00:16:05,341 --> 00:16:07,140
wrapped in leather and then the center
409
00:16:07,141 --> 00:16:09,599
piece that I'm going to have to make uh
410
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,600
will be painted right now I'm just
411
00:16:12,601 --> 00:16:14,579
making it to where this whole unit with
412
00:16:14,580 --> 00:16:16,560
the chassis the side panels all that
413
00:16:16,561 --> 00:16:18,539
stuff can come out of the car I can
414
00:16:18,540 --> 00:16:20,759
build it as much as possible on the
415
00:16:18,539 --> 00:16:21,479
bench and then you know when it's all
416
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,958
said and done we can just come right in
417
00:16:24,959 --> 00:16:27,958
Bolt it it's easy to install because we
418
00:16:27,959 --> 00:16:30,778
can install in pieces and uh this gives
419
00:16:27,958 --> 00:16:30,777
you a little bit of a variety as far as
420
00:16:30,778 --> 00:16:34,019
how to finish it with the leathers and
421
00:16:34,020 --> 00:16:36,659
the paints and all that stuff and it's
422
00:16:36,660 --> 00:16:38,720
something we like to do here just make a
423
00:16:38,721 --> 00:16:40,580
couple adjustments on this and then
424
00:16:40,581 --> 00:16:42,440
go back to the bench
425
00:16:46,820 --> 00:16:49,439
all right so basically what I'm doing
426
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,319
right now is uh this Atmos flange for
427
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,898
this top side panel uh this this piece
428
00:16:54,899 --> 00:16:58,169
will be wrapped in Leather So this panel
429
00:16:58,170 --> 00:17:01,799
will be coming up it'll wrap over the
430
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,119
top of the center portion
431
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,480
um the center panel I've already done uh
432
00:17:06,481 --> 00:17:08,190
I already ran that through the machine
433
00:17:08,191 --> 00:17:10,770
we basically stamped this radiused Edge
434
00:17:10,771 --> 00:17:12,839
kind of gave it a little bit more
435
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,489
dimension
436
00:17:14,490 --> 00:17:17,710
and give it a little bit of depth and uh
437
00:17:17,711 --> 00:17:19,280
just overall Style
438
00:17:25,220 --> 00:17:28,740
I notice that I'm assembling the trunk
439
00:17:28,741 --> 00:17:31,059
panels and I figured I'd roll in for a
440
00:17:31,060 --> 00:17:32,298
closer look
441
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,820
Troy was showing me pictures of the
442
00:17:35,821 --> 00:17:38,759
trunk earlier and they're pretty
443
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,500
freaking awesome just like the Cadillac
444
00:17:40,501 --> 00:17:42,870
trunk the metal work is stupendous so I
445
00:17:42,871 --> 00:17:44,580
asked Adam if he put it all together
446
00:17:44,581 --> 00:17:46,859
actually the camera guy did but Adam was
447
00:17:46,860 --> 00:17:48,719
kind enough to hear him great she's just
448
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,178
going in trying to think of a new word
449
00:17:51,179 --> 00:17:53,460
here instead of difficult but man your
450
00:17:51,179 --> 00:17:54,270
brain was really cooking too sure to
451
00:17:54,271 --> 00:17:56,160
bend these panels around like that and
452
00:17:56,161 --> 00:17:58,980
these pieces are just beautiful
453
00:17:58,981 --> 00:18:01,500
what what sickness is that like 60
454
00:18:01,501 --> 00:18:03,360
thousands this is all sixty thousand so
455
00:18:03,361 --> 00:18:05,220
typically all the interior panels that
456
00:18:05,221 --> 00:18:06,959
we do are 60.
457
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,940
Um it's it's thin enough and light
458
00:18:08,941 --> 00:18:10,679
enough that you can form it but it's
459
00:18:08,940 --> 00:18:11,460
still aluminum so it's rigid you can put
460
00:18:11,461 --> 00:18:13,050
the panels on and off you know a
461
00:18:13,051 --> 00:18:14,819
thousand times and it's still not going
462
00:18:14,820 --> 00:18:16,619
to be a problem they're very durable so
463
00:18:16,620 --> 00:18:18,960
back here really the only thing on the
464
00:18:18,961 --> 00:18:21,058
back side here that I needed any
465
00:18:21,059 --> 00:18:23,579
clearance at all for were these tail
466
00:18:21,058 --> 00:18:24,030
light buckets the lower bucket for the
467
00:18:24,031 --> 00:18:25,199
light
468
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,538
um interfered with this panel a little
469
00:18:25,919 --> 00:18:29,160
bit so I just put a little dimple you
470
00:18:29,161 --> 00:18:31,619
didn't have to yeah I didn't know if
471
00:18:31,620 --> 00:18:33,660
that was yeah for uh yeah practicality
472
00:18:33,661 --> 00:18:37,259
or clearance for the bucket just down at
473
00:18:37,260 --> 00:18:40,200
the bottom and the other thing is
474
00:18:40,201 --> 00:18:42,720
I I made these panels in such a way so
475
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,719
that these come out first if you're
476
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,000
taking it apart so if you have to
477
00:18:45,001 --> 00:18:47,399
service this tail light you have four
478
00:18:45,900 --> 00:18:48,030
screws in here and this whole panel
479
00:18:48,031 --> 00:18:50,340
comes out so you can get to the back
480
00:18:50,341 --> 00:18:52,980
side without having to take all the rest
481
00:18:52,981 --> 00:18:54,959
of that out cool
482
00:18:52,980 --> 00:18:55,680
the panels inside the trunk were as much
483
00:18:55,681 --> 00:18:57,960
a functional work of art as the rest of
484
00:18:57,961 --> 00:18:59,460
the car
485
00:18:59,461 --> 00:19:01,558
I couldn't stay to watch the rest of the
486
00:19:01,559 --> 00:19:03,840
progress unfold but I did come back a
487
00:19:03,841 --> 00:19:06,000
few weeks later and this is what I found
488
00:19:06,001 --> 00:19:08,939
now you can get a better idea of what
489
00:19:08,940 --> 00:19:10,919
the final product is going to look like
490
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,900
I love seeing all the pieces off of the
491
00:19:12,901 --> 00:19:15,240
car even though they're finished and
492
00:19:15,241 --> 00:19:18,600
ready to go on it really gives you the
493
00:19:18,601 --> 00:19:20,519
ability to set back and appreciate just
494
00:19:18,599 --> 00:19:21,209
how detailed each part is with the trim
495
00:19:21,210 --> 00:19:23,400
going on the body it really starts to
496
00:19:23,401 --> 00:19:25,440
paint the whole picture of just how
497
00:19:25,441 --> 00:19:27,360
elegant this car is going to look the
498
00:19:27,361 --> 00:19:29,460
colors and the textures all make so much
499
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,270
sense and really work well together take
500
00:19:30,271 --> 00:19:32,640
the Grille or the wheels for example as
501
00:19:32,641 --> 00:19:34,500
they're almost completed they're not
502
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,280
just nickel plated and then thrown on
503
00:19:35,281 --> 00:19:37,619
the car there's actually a lot of other
504
00:19:37,620 --> 00:19:39,899
colors and textures that get involved
505
00:19:39,900 --> 00:19:42,119
each piece has an entire process
506
00:19:42,120 --> 00:19:44,660
attached to it it really helps with a
507
00:19:44,661 --> 00:19:45,849
detailed look of the car
508
00:19:45,850 --> 00:19:48,029
but I'd come up for something completely
509
00:19:48,030 --> 00:19:49,889
different a well-kept secret that I've
510
00:19:49,890 --> 00:19:51,839
been following since I started this show
511
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:53,969
a potential record-setting Flathead
512
00:19:53,970 --> 00:19:56,099
perhaps the world's most powerful and
513
00:19:56,100 --> 00:19:58,259
naturally aspirated Flathead and not
514
00:19:58,260 --> 00:20:00,210
only did we see it being built we made a
515
00:20:00,211 --> 00:20:01,949
36 hour drive to the Bonneville Salt
516
00:20:01,950 --> 00:20:05,220
Flats to see if it would set a record
517
00:20:05,221 --> 00:20:06,940
and you've got to see this on the next
518
00:20:06,941 --> 00:20:08,660
episode of rad rats
519
