I hate how easy he makes it seem. Have to say ive learned more from Fitzee than anyone. True artist!!

"Stick around" The words we all look forward to. 👍

Fitz is one of my favorite guys. he teaches self reliance

"All we have is a hammer, grinder, vice, welder, and clamps - no fancy tools" - he forgot to mention --- it is awesome to have Fitzee educate you along the way. Yes, the tips are EXCELLENT!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills.

For years all I've heard was " You can't build that" and you prove it can be done!

A mistake? No, just another 'happy accident'. There has only ever been one perfect man; and look what they did to him. Thanks for another brilliant episode of Fitzeecation.

Fitzee... you have proved that the best tool in the shop is the one between your ears! Great skills!!

I salute you for admitting and sharing your mistakes as well as your successes.

Let’s not forget the most important tool he brings to every project. Patience, slow methodical patience

Once again the professor waves his magic wand, and presto!!! Back in the day they had huge fifty and hundred ton press with dies to press these parts out of flat stock!! There's more than one way to skin a cat, or make a part!! Thank you for the part two professor, and have a great day sir!!!

It’s a beautiful thing, looks just like “factory”

Fitzee, you can look at a shape or a panel and your mind is breaking it down into step by step. What a great talent. Thank you for sharing your processes with all of us. Hope it will be the kick-start for people to get into the shop and take on a restoration or two. Thank you.

Show me someone that has never made a mistake and that will be a person that has never done anything on his/her own.

I was replacing a fuel pump on my Turbo Thunderbird, trying to get running again, when the gas tank mount fell off to reveal that it and the back quarter of the trunk pan was completely rusted through. The car is becoming rare and there is no aftermarket sheet metal available (that I could find). I REALLY like that car and was sad that it might never see the road again. Watching you make equally complex parts using tools I have makes me confident I CAN fix it, though I doubt it will look half so good as your work. I am glad I was so careful in removing the tar insulator because it retains the shape of the disintegrated pan. Thanks Fitzee! I will think about you when I am tooling down the road in my T-bird.

Gosh!!Im just speechless with the ease how Fitzee makes the panels.. true master of his trade!!

Mr.Fitzee i'd owned a production collision repair shopp that was very fast pasted.I would lose my butt doing restorations i would prefer to stick to a repair of a quarter panel ,replace a dorr shell, and a skin on another and charge the insurance company 8 to 10K in 3 days.ALL LATE MODEL CARS WHERE ALL PARTS WERE READILY AVAILABLE.BUT MY HEART WAS STILL WITH REPAIRING THE OLD IMPALAS.T=BIRDS.MUSCLECARS AND CLASSICS.AFTER 35 YEARS IN THE BUSINESS YOU SHOWED ME WHAT I WAS MISSING BY CREATING PARTS WITH YOUR HANDS AND A RAW PIECE OF METAL. MY HAT IS OFF TO YOU

Fitzee I had My like hit when You got to "Stick Around" !!!

I love the fact that you do all this without a bunch of fancy expensive tools. I find it more rewarding to do something with as little as possible. Using what I have to make what I need. Most people ask me why I don't buy parts or tools. I just say why should I when I can do it myself with what I have

Fritzee is the most amazing metal shaper he breaks it down and it is totally common sense that anyone can understand I love these videos

Thank you for your videos. It's nice to see someone share their knowledge and talent, and not also have 20 commercials to deal with. Some of these KZfaq videos are impossible to learn from due to the constant commercials interruptions

"Haven't had a torch in years" he says. 😁 all the tips was good ! Love watching your videos sir. Still enjoy the accent too. I can understand every word. Thanks Fitts. Hello from Indianapolis, Indiana USA .

great work the only thing different would be getting that nut off would be to hammer on the flat square sides a little to loosen it up. i learn so much watching you. you really are the master

My favorite Uncle showed me how to fabricate needed pieces like this…when he was done, he would say “I didn’t know, that I didn’t know how to do that!”

Another smash hit!!! I can't wait to get back home and Jump on my son's 66 LeMans. We have been working on it for some years...Will apply many of your lessons getting her back on the road again! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Hey Fitz, what would we all do without you? We would all be poorer.

When you use metal its like magic that it transform into a wonderful part. and with simple tools you show us that we can do it to by following your footsteps. GREAT VIDEO

I’m sure you like our comments, but I hope you understand how amazed we are with your talent . Just awesome work. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us

Fantastic repair, again you have proved that a little patience and determination will allow you to preform ( near miracles )!! Lol I'm truely impressed !!

Every since the first video. I have stuck around. Awesome work man. You make us poor folks confident.

He definitely needs to have all the support from the KZfaq community the skills he is providing the education of how to do is a skill set that is disappearing slowly he should have millions of subscribers and views

you Sir, are my weekly addiction .thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Your videos are the absolute best. The education your Channel has given me is absolutely priceless. Thank you so much 😊

Loved that, just wanted to say that here in England other KZfaq channels are mentioning your fabrication skills. They make reference to you when fabricating tricky parts. Salvage Flippers, Treves Blog, Dan Chambers, Saving salvage. Maybe some more but good to see them sharing your skills.

These fab vids of yours are some of the best on youtube. Thank you for sharing and being so detailed.

This was some of the finest fabricating ive seen…. Noteworthy craftsman, sir.! Outstanding work!

I wish you lived next door.Very nice work I learn something new Everytime I watch your videos.Thanks so much

It would be awesome if i were younger and could hang out and help you on these projects just for the experience. You are indeed a master at fabrication. Love your videos

I love how you manage to build these things with tools that most of us already have or could easily get, and not spend thousands just on tools that you'll only use once or twice, like other channels may show. Sure it might take you a bit longer but it all works out in the end !

You are definitely a pleasure to watch and learn from, i just wish that I wasn’t 76 so I could take advantage of the wealth of your knowledge. Thank you,

HOW Many times have I done that..... bent my bends backwards. and hammered it back flat again.

Yet another video where you make an otherwise complicated issue look relatively easy, thank you for sharing your expertise and knowledge.

"Don't be afraid to make mistakes". I had an instructor, in Barber School, that used to say: "If you have never made a mistake, you haven't worked very long". 👍👍👍

I find it amazing that you put so much effort into replicating factory seams, body lines, welds and so on. There are times when it would be easier to make a flat panel (the bed floor for example), but you go through the trouble to BUILD a proper panel that looks almost exactly like a stamped part from the factory. That's craftsmanship!

I love watching your videos , you remind me a lot of my grandfather , one of the best things he ever told me , ( never let another man do for you what you can teach and do yourself ) I have lived my life by that , you can learn and your videos help a man learn.

I'm just watching your video and imaging you during mid-evil times in England forming a knight's metal armour for battle! You are definitely a wizard of metal!

Damn, man. I'm 50 and starting working at a restoration shop when I was 13. I've done it all. So much that I took a little time off to become a lawyer just for the hell it. I'm proud to say I'm about as cynical an asshole as you'll ever find when it comes to restoration means and methods. With that said, I can't wait for a new video to come out. Your videos mirror the voices I hear as I fab metal panels. Your approach is like playing chess. So much of this is seeing 3 steps ahead and that only comes with exceedingly gifted and generous mentors, and decades of experience. Just wanted to drop a comment about how enjoyable your videos are and how anyone who is at the pinnacle of the trade should appreciate your dedication and effort. All the best.

Wish I had a dollar for every time I formed the metal bass ackwards. Thanks for keeping it real Fitzee; great stuff!

If only surgeons had the talent Fitz does......just amazing how you lay this stuff out. Really practice and vetted. awesome.

I've watched this hour-long video I don't know how many times over the past year and it is still worth every minute spent. Thank you Tony for sharing your talents with us mere mortals - lol.

We all make um, nice to see you correcting your mistakes and reusing the same piece some would have edited it out thanks for your honesty from across the pond

I appreciate the amazing work you do with basic tools, Man has been doing metal work long before all that fancy expensive equipment .

Great respect for you sir....the way u rebuild what cant be bought is simply on another level appreciate your methodology 👍👍👍

You sir are a true master of your craft. I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you for passing this knowledge along.

That was stunning to watch, real old fashioned skills and tenacity, in a few weeks i will be visiting the newfoundland memorial, your ancestors there would be pleased that you carry on their fine traditions

I have an unobtainable fender skirt I'm fixing, and your video has given me some ideas about repairing it. Thanks Fitzee.

Hey KZfaq - we need something stronger than the "Like" button for this one! Beautifully crafted and the fitment was perfect. Thank you Fitzee for showing us how to break it down and build it one piece at a time

Very nice work, very glad you show how it can be done with minimal tools

Hi Fitze you sure do have a lot of trix up your sleeve you are my best teacher thus far proud of you 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks for your channel I've learned a bunch of tricks whith simple tools . U are the true and real metal master.Salutes.from California.Love your work👍

I love your videos but they're a little bit long. It's hard for me to watch with my schedule. But the knowledge you share is worth it. And I thank you for it

If it was made once, it could be made twice. Love his mindset!

Do we get to watch you do the left mount next time? 😁👍 I think people will know that 's not the original mount because it looks better than new! 😎

Love the way go into detail on repairs. Love it. Your a Great teacher

I absolutely love your work. Years ago, I did a panel-making course, which was great, but, like most things, if you don't use it, you lose it. Great stuff, and very inspiring. Cheers, Andy.

I find this fabrication work......fascinating....another form of art..........can't get enough of it....

Tony, you are the master!! So look forward to seeing your videos, so much info in a short time and the quality is over the top. Thank you!

The past two weekends I've spent in the garage, fabricating various metal patches for a 56 Bel Air that I've had for years but is tired. 98% of my method is from Fitzee's videos. Invaluable!

Now I know who has been making the cat's with the arse missing. Nice of you to leave something for the other handy people to do Tony

Incredibly good tuition for the "back street garage" man/ woman enthusiast , renovating ,rodding, or even custom work, very few of us have a bling hi tech building, fully equipped work shop, often shown on here , im 67 and still learning ! Thanks Fitzee,much appreciated sharing your skills with us,.....though i must admit it makes my bum nip a bit seeing you run those fingers around raw cut steel edges ! ;) Cheers 10/10

Thanks for keeping your mistakes in the videos, makes me not feel so bad when I do the same thing.

Just incase you have not worked it out yet this guy is bloody amazing 👏

great work . most of the people in cold areas become great fabricators.

Great fabrication!!! I thought that nut had the best of you. Your patience & determination paid off. A big ..👍 Stay well, Joe Z

Awesome fits better than new a little never seize on that bolt and you have perfection you the man😎 I watch closely how you position your hands to be comfortable and steady when welding thank you for all the great tips and tricks

Ingenuity...skill...hands of a surgeon...Well done Fitzee...cheers 🥃🥃

I’m working on a ‘72 Jeep commando, only made in ‘72/‘73, and undesirable at the time because of the more popular bronco and scout. So, fort make everything at home, and so thankful for your videos teaching me how. Thanks Fitzee

Perfect, I watch from Germany

I truly love that you you the muscle on your shoulders . I learned a lot of things on this video. The biggest thing is breaking it down into smaller jobs.

I’m glad I stumbled on you I’m on a 64 nova wagon and I needed this video! About time KZfaq suggestions paid off Thanks

Incredible, you made it look so simple but your explanation of the method is easy to follow. Gives us beginners to repairing our old vehicles some hope that they are not right offs.

Three ingredients for success; steel, stone and Fitzee 👌👏😎

Your videos have been so helpful. Because of your minimal tool techniques, I have completely rebuilt the rear wheel house on my pick up. Stll have the other side to do, then fenders and rockers, but I know with some time, it's all doable thanks in part to you and your videos!

Fitz, your work is always amazing. It's pleasing to watch the quality and attention to detail that you put in your work. Thank you for showing us the skill you have 🙂

Fitzee......You are amazing. Old school, low buck. with amazing results. Love your videos.....they are very informing easy to learn from

You do truly phenomenal work with metal! Thankyou for posting these amazing videos Fitzee!

You think he looks at his wife the same way when he says "stick around"?😆

Thank you for for showing us you don’t need much in tools and for the motivation as well as your knowledge.

Great job Fitzee 👍! Thanks for another inspiring "how to" video tutorial. Nice to see how much can be done with simple tools and good old fashion determination.

Thank you so much Tony for this vid, you really inspire me and the finished article looks brilliant. Well done. Paul from Liverpool.

You sir are a master metal worker. Love your attention to detail and your craftsmanship.

I've been watching your videos one after another since discovering you several days ago and I have yet to be disappointed, and I don't think I ever will be. You do great work and you teach as good as you fabricate. You're the Norm Abrams of metalwork.

Thanks for the video! Love the tip on not getting overwhelmed. Just attack the part one piece at a time! Such good advice!

Your fabricating skills are phenomenal! Thank you for sharing with us!

When you flattened out the joggle I cringed a bit, all I could think of was metal fatigue. Then I thought about the heat involved in the next steps and that made it all good. I did welding as a foundry man and now I want to do the body and structure work on my 240Z. Those old Datsuns are mostly rust these days so I’ve got my work cut out. Thanks for the inspiration.

Great Job Fitzee!!! I always enjoy watching you do your work. You are great at making these parts.

Hi Tony, with patience and skill you make a perfect copy. Thanks again for showing. 😊👍

Fitzee... you are freaking awesome! So inspiring. You make us able to tackle about any rusty piece. And you feed our desire to fabricate. Thank you so much for doing what you do. We appreciate you.

I mostly work on metal projects and my motorcycles, HOWEVER you inspire guys like me who don't have and probably will never have fancy equipment to make the job easier...You make due with what you have....Keep the vid's coming..Peace from NB.

Another amazing video, Tony. Thanks so much for all of your help and information. My ‘66 GTO is coming along MUCH better, thanks to you and your videos. Keep up the great work!

You ! my friend are my favorite metal fab teacher. I love and learn a tremendous amount on every single video you do. I too have the very minimum amount of tools to use around my shop as well. Sometimes "less is better" Thank you again Fitzee
