can you you challenge someone to a rat rod build i loved the look of that truck. the 55 looks great as well thanks for the video

@CaptainHowdyOG 5 жыл бұрын

Awesome!... This should be fun!...... Oh yeah.... YES!.... RATROD CHALLENGE!... Outlaw perhaps?...or better. See if you could do dual challenges. Example. You challenge Danny on a car/topic, and then it flips. He picks the subject. This way two resto heads get to try another's style. Like Ratrod challenge then Road Warrior, or whatever! The way you guys have formed a community around HW/MB etc resto is so much fun. My wife thinks I'm nuts.

@bigjohn7688 4 жыл бұрын

Add 2 small grooves on the ends of the brass tube (axle) for a more stable and lasting fit. (Glue has something more to bite into instead of smooth on smooth) Gorilla glue is good, I use JB Weld for a more permanent application. The purple was sick and deep and the wheels looked great.

Great tech video of the zinc plating process, and the car turned out sweet - purple is an excellent color for large bodied vehicles (like HOK's Burple on late 40's lead sleds). Love those Torque Thrust wheels and wide back tires too! One of these days, maybe you could try one with just a hint of color over the zinc - let the silver shine through. Poor Jimmy however, has seen some better days - think he needs to head over to Floyd's for a guy makeover. Also, 0:45 and 13:32 - you're clearly enjoying the innuendo as much as your viewers!
