I hope you're better than this guy....

Remember to keep that shirt pulled down when blasting to keep the sand out of
your pockets!

 

Hey that's the same haircut my mom gave me when I was 8.

Not even the dog with play with me.

 

I think I bought a car this guy fixed....I kept getting messages from Aliens through my right rear quarter panel....

Fer my learnins, I've only been watching Doug Jenkins videos over at EHow or EVillage...one of the two. Haven't seen any hack work yet....maybe I haven't watched enough yet.

 

I gave up at the dental floss

 

Wow! He also makes hood scoops, ground effects and fender flares. Whatta guy!!

 

DAMN wish ai saw this when I was going to buy my welder ... id of used the screen and pop rivit method too....

the real problem here is that he didnt stop any rust at all. a few years later there was more !

i love rubberized undercoating...

 

Fuck, makes me embarrassed to have the name Al.

 

I tried the screen method, but it just made more rust. It kept the 'skeeters outa my fender though.

 

Al and I did all the body work on my high school ride - '73 Pinto runabout.....drivers side repairs were already rustin' again b4 we finished the repairs on the passenger side. My mustache was curlier than that in '76 though......good times, good times.

 

Where are my body shop tools? I got this piece of corn stuck in my teeth...

 

He seems to be the Walmart equivalent of bodymen.

 

screen and dental floss? Crap, I have been doing it the hard way. Anyone want to buy a welder?

 

I don't see any problem with making repairs this way for the average Moe without any specialized knowledge or tools just to keep their heap on the road another couple of years. I'm sure no one would use these techniques on their 32 3 window.

 

Come on guys, fess up, anyone who grew up in the rust belt has done that (or worse) to a daily driver just to get it inspected and squeeze another year out of it, but I can't imagine making a video about it. What bothered me the most was the band aid he put on that Jeep in a badly rusted area that supports the ROLL BAR! He'd probably use the same method on a frame repair!
Aside from that though it was funny, ball peen hammer for a body hammer, the hand gestures (looked like he was sprinkling holy water), telling you not to get dust in the vents, then just sands right over them, not to mention masking the window rubber on the VW AFTER he scratches it up with the sandpaper, etc, etc, etc.
BUT, my time was not wasted, I learned how to make a great mixing pallet by coating a cardboard box in bondo!

 

I am sure that video is from 1984. I bet he can repair some drywall like nobody's business.

 

Free mustach rides this face leaves in 20 minutes be on it!!!!CHEESY

 

Wow I think this guy did some of the "repair work" on my '53 Bel Air. I found the floor under my feet riveted as was the trunk pan. to top it off there was a 1/2 thick coat of bondo on my quarter panels

 

those are the things that you were not suppose to see..I use to work at earl schieb but couldn't do that kinda crap no more..thats what you get for $20.00 though

 

That vid was made about 17 years ago, and now, that guy is a daily poster on the HAMB, but I won't say who it is.....

 

Wow that sucked.

 

This should be shown in public schools as what not to do..

 

I was buyin' it until I saw the screen wire and dental floss.

Years ago when I was a kid, a wire welder was dreamware that was talked about but no one had actually seen one, much less used one.

Coat hangers and a #1 brazing tip.

 

My favorite part was when he was taping the rag to his head to keep sand out of his hair while sandblasting.

 

I can't believe everyone is so harsh on this guy, it's obvious that he got the tape a little too tight. Poor little feller...

 

rember allways have a lit cigrette in your mouth while spraying paint, and most of all have a 12 pack open at all times

 

This should get cross linked to the bondo hell thread...............

 

Well then, he really needs to be outed!

 

They sell "How to build a rat rod" videos by that guy in the truck stops.

 

My attention span isn't that long.
