1937 Lincoln Zephyr: Full Custom Ian Roussel Continues Working On The Floors

[@genrl55]

my job before i retired was operating a sheet metal brake so i enjoy watching ian with his leaf brake. and even tho i only build model cars i don't watch paint dry or glue set. so i am building 4 to 5 at a time. i so much enjoy the interaction between you two. so much better than full custom garage.

[@chanosanchez]

I love model cars, just got me a 67 GTO for Christmas.

[@darrylowens9298]

What’s the purpose of putting the bends or marks on the sheet metal surface ? Is it to make it stronger so it doesn’t flex or what ? Could you just put more tube bracing underneath and do the same thing if that’s it…… thanks

[@markus8818]

Hi Ian, im a big fan. I started working on old cars 13 years ago when i bought my first car, that was from 67. I had no one to teach me, but it was the only thing i loved to do. 2 years ago i went down with a depression. Lost the motivation, to keep on doing what i loved. A year ago i saw your videos and it sparked a flame in me again. And now im back to myself. Restoring and building. I dont know if you gonna see this, but i wanted to say thanks. And i praise your sheetmetal skills.

[@tommysparkman1160]

Heck yeah Mrs Jamie..metal music while watching metal work by one of the best...love you guys

I love to watch you 'create' something from nothing. You are a true artist !

Coming along quite nicely. If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now It's just a spring clean for the May queen Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run There's still time to change the road you're on...instant lyric drop lol

I was a Respiratory Therapist in the 80s and 90s and had to draw arterial blood gases. The kits we used came with an 18 and 20 gauge needle. I would swap it out for a 26 gauge needle so I could do less damage. Many of my patients were destined to have several draws and I couldn’t stand sticking a bruised up wrist. I can’t believe I even was able to do that job, I have a terrible fear of needles. 😬 I should have been a custom car builder! Except I don’t have the skills. 😂 Love your videos, happy new year!

[@gizmofish57]

Coming right along. I get inspired by your way of using alternative tools to get things done. Nice job

[@1954shadow]

Thank goodness for your channel, Ian, fore regular broadcast TV is a wasteland.

[@Spartan902]

Hey Ian. I have only recently seen Full Custom Garage and I am a huge fan. I normally don't get into car shows but what you do is on a completely different level and I am hooked. I am watching your episode on the Pinto right now on TV and it's epic! Love the shop inspectors as well. The way you talk to them about the project and their reactions is priceless. Thanks for the entertainment mate from Down Under.👍😎❤️🇦🇺 I just subscribed to your channel and am stoked that you have one.

[@shaneb4923]

Your The Man Ian!! Such A Good Dude! Thanks For Always Being Real Good Sir.

[@pedrokd5439]

Great job, mate 🎉🎉🎉

[@peterclark1069]

That was the funniest moment when you made the reference about the corrugated sheet. I curved it, I flattened it, I bent it, I did everything I could to try and get away from what happened. Yet it still remains😂😂😂 You’re so cool for keeping it and having a laugh. I’ve been watching and rewatching your show/channel for years. You’re my favourite car customiser. Love the way you explain the task at hand, the reasons of why you do things. I love all your builds from the extravagant wild builds to the mild custom builds. The Merc eater eater-er is my favourite build so far. I’ve only just watched part 2 tonight. (Watching from Australia) I have been checking KZbin for part 2 for a while. We don’t get every episode on prime video in Australia. Best of luck to both you and Jamie. Love the set up at the new shop.

[@tourhead]

Metal cutting with Metal playing! Perfect!!!!

[@lesliehanson-g7h]

Love the b pillar design

[@kevinlucas8437]

I liked the trunk floor !!! It was interesting how you achieved that look. The simpler look for the Zepher floor is definitely the right choice.

[@donaldhalls2189]

Coming together great, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones

[@jefferynugent]

Love your thoughts more is better . Jamie's laugh just gets me keep going ❤

[@cpstone100]

I was a tool engineer. I only recently learned that gage numbers are based on a 1” standard thickness. 20 gage is theoretically 1/20th of an inch.🖖

[@jeremyhanna3852]

I am not saying your wrong put why are different types of materials different thickness for 20 gauge Aluminum is .0357 Steel is .0374 Stainless is .0348

[@ingvarhedenrud621]

Even you anericans dont understand your own systems of measuring.. If you use millimeters it all becomes very clear.

[@cpstone100]

@@jeremyhanna3852 I stand corrected. This is the story. “No, sheet metal gauges were not originally based on a 1-inch standard thickness; instead, the gauge system originated from the British wire industry where thickness was determined by the size of the hole used to draw the wire, and the gauge numbers were based on the weight of the material per unit area, not a specific thickness in inches; meaning a higher gauge number indicates a thinner sheet of metal. Key points about sheet metal gauges: Origin: The gauge system originated in Britain where there was no universal unit of thickness at the time. Basis of measurement: Gauge numbers were initially determined by the wire drawing process and the properties of iron, not a fixed inch measurement. Weight-based system: The "gauge" system primarily relates to the weight of the metal per square foot, not the actual thickness in inches.”🖖😂

[@Tank196958]

Jamie, years ago I worked at an EMS in Macon, Ga. in my infancy as a new paramedic and with us being hospital based, and the trauma center for middle Ga., I saw some things that really taught me a ton. One of the more interesting items at our disposal were 10ga and 12 ga angiocaths. It was akin to sticking a water hose in someone and you could only use them on folks with ropes for veins, but you could infuse 1000 ccs in under a minute with a pump blood set. We didnt really understand a ton about Hgb and dilution of the red cells being a bit detrimental to survivability but you could create exsanguinating shades of pink that would impress. Some survived only due to our ability to place a 10 ga and flood them with Ringers. Lord that brought back some memories when you mentioned Cath sizes. Just wanted to share that tidbit. For reference, this was in the late 80s.

[@derekwalters6132]

The way I see it Ian if Jamie totally cared about the quality of the floors going into the Zephyr she’d have bought you a bead roller for Christmas LOL. Just teasing, it’s nice to see you working the metal with what you have on hand, I work on a galvanizing line that runs between 20ga material all the way up to 8ga, the line I used to work on would go as little as 24ga material. And you choosing 18ga is a nice choice, thick enough to handle the weight, thin enough to be pliable. Also noticed nobody’s asked you yet this year if you’re ever going to finish one of these projects (bit of a dad joke, and yes I’ve been here since the beginning so I’ve seen that comment a lot)

You would think that Eastwood or Woodward fab would step up and help him out with a bead roller!

[@kevinrost6095]

Build a wood form with a bead profile you like and use an air hammer with a rounded bit in it to get those nice deep beads and complex shapes. Those X's are not deep enough to add much strength. Also it looks like that crossmember is higher than the floors themself so you should break the floor pans around the crossmember to keep them nice and level.

[@sarahpd11]

Hi Ian & Jamie, I hope you guys had wonderful holidays. I love the projects you are working on now but is the Ole cab over truck going to be on the list of to do list? Also, did Ian get a new tattoo on his right bicep? Anyway, love the show, all the projects and love you guys.❤🎉
