Hey, I've been watching this entire series and I really like your formatting style. I appreciate how you really try to motivate folks into just getting started with their projects. I know a few guys that have projects, but really lack the motivation to get started, because it's their first major piece of work. Whether you're short on time, feeling life's pains of getting older, or just having trouble figuring out where to start, just getting in there and doing something will usually lead to finding the opening that you've been looking for. Thank you for your time and input! I'm hooked on watching your work now. Be safe and take care!

I love what your doing. I appreciate it very much. I bought a 68 Impala I'm redoing just for myself, not a complete restoration. Just starting it haven't done a video yet but I will, I need a couple go-pro's and a mic for my shirt. Keep up the fine work, I'm a self taught idiot at everything I've ever done. Born and raised in Mass, Marlboro, Hopkinton areas. In Buffalo, NY now and just want to move south in my retirement.

This is a great start to a hot rod, if I were closer I'd say let me buy it. Haha. Have you seen the car Brent from Halfass Kustoms is currently on? It's a 35ish dodge coupe, I think many people would pass up on as yard art even but he's making it cool. Guys like you and Brent are inspiring to watch take these old crusty metal bits and turn into somthing cool

Love the content. You are correct when you talk about people’s hesitation to start a project, but unlike trying to repair something you need tomorrow, you can proceed methodically and seek answers to try to help you learn. That tends to make me enjoy a project more. Keep up the work, encouragement and teaching. Thanks

Your last comment sitting on the chassie ...I've had mine for 11 or 12 years Working on it off and on I have come up with 4 designs. And what I've come up with I would have to Pick out the size tires and rims traditionally Old school jeep. And then build Everything around the tires Using the method you are using right now Going to hit it hard in the Spring

Giving me a lot of knowledge and ideas for my next build. It's going to be a 27 open top coupe on model A style frame rails that I still need to fabricate. Hoping to get it to TROG CA in 2024. Assuming that they run it that year. So far all I have for it is a front axle and some hacked up quarter panels. I get to build all the rest from scratch.

You would really have to brace the body hood. I think you would be better off putting it up on a fab table or frame table sitting on its base. But anything can be done and certainly possible.
