WHAT TO EXPECT
In the series, we cover the gamut of tools real guys would use in their shop. Everything from welders, plasma cutters, metal forming tools like an English Wheel, bead rollers, paints and more!
We get a quote from an Auto Restoration Shop on a repair like installing a new door skin. We buy the tools and supplies needed to tackle the repairs ourselves and see if we can beat the quote!
Mark is the veteran of the series, using his skills to fabricate his own panels on his 1966 Chevy Corvair, including replacing rusted floors pans and even a new door skin.
Cody is the newbie. An up and coming star at Eastwood, Cody has mechanical knowledge and has completed his fare share of motorcycle and jeep projects. His 1967 Camaro will be his first dive into restoring an American classic, utilizing Eastwood tools and AMD sheet metal while bringing the car back to life!

I love watching these detailed episodes. Especially those with Matt and the old 30's model cars.

Nice job for building from scratch. The Corvair parts vendors have repro floor panels that are a lot more original looking. Also the cover over the heater duct should be removable, there's a lot that goes on underneath that cover with lines & linkages etc. Going to be fun getting an operating gas pedal going...

He raised a good point that he now has all the equipment necessary to carry out any future metal work on this (or any other) car! Whilst the saving of money is obviously good, the benefits of being able to carry out the work at your own pace is good too.

Yeah...we went over a "little bit" - dude, you went over by 33%. That's a huge amount of money, however, if you are planning on opening up a body shop or doing several cars every year - sure it will be worth it. Of course we could have skipped the metal fab portion and just purchased the panels, and welded them in without using every tool Eastwood sells and actually been substantially under budget. I really enjoyed the videos, and am looking forward to more of them.

it's an ad for the tools. they wouldn't be doing their job unless they used every damned tool. at least they seem to be honest about the cost.

Seriously brilliant work! This series and the Kevin Tetz Camaro have really tought me a lot.. thank you for sharing your knowledge! You cannot put a price on skill and abilities you've learned yourself..

@chevelle396guy 5 жыл бұрын

Any body shop would have had to up the price once they got into that floor pan project and uncovered the extra work involved. So technically, you would still have been within budget. No way a (quality) body shop could still do all that work for 3K. Very nice.

Great job, its looks awesome! Thanks for the great step by step explanations. Quick question: Why only "spot-weld" the bracing? Would it n to be only better if they were fully welded? Is their a reason why it is better to spot-weld rather then fully weld? I can imagine water and debris getting under the sheet metal and causing more rust again. If the braces are fully welded together, water can't get in between the two sets. Again, great series! Thanks!

Does the bead roller shrink the metal enough to throw off final measurements?

@eastwoodco 4 жыл бұрын

The short answer is yes. It can throw off the measurements a tad. Leaving a little extra metal is not a bad idea, then go back and trim

I notice you sell both 1/8" and 3/16" clecos. Obviously, they take two different size holes. In this video, I believe he said he used 1/8" and then commented to drill 3/16" holes for plug welding. Hence, I'm confused on why you didn't just use 3/16" to begin with? Also, what is the advantage of one size vs the other? I have floor pans, trunk etc. to fabricate on a 31 Dodge and I'd prefer to only purchase one size.

@emeltea33 5 жыл бұрын

My guess regarding there not being 3/16" clecos is because you want an unmolested sheet on the backside. In other words, there should be a sheet with a hole drilled, on top of a sheet, without a hole, which will have the sheet plug welded to. I wonder if you could drill out for a small cleco, and the drill the front bigger, and a washer to go flat... ehhh, too complicated to explain, but on sheet would be able to shift. Hope that first sentence of mine helps, that last one has me confused, lol.

if you have a crack after you have blended your welds, your welds suck. if you would get a good weld that would never hapen cause it has penetrated so the is a material on the other side

I'm getting a 1995 Trans Am friend a friend that bought it new. Sure wished I could get slandered tools for my rebuild. Maybe I could make review videos in exchange. What ya think EASTWOOD?
