1939 CHEVROLET MASTER 85 WRECK REPAIR PANEL REGRET

[@rodney1818]

Anybody who's complaining about the quality of the videos go to the History Channel?

[@rodney1818]

Absolutely

[@scottm.franklinnc7942]

Shawn... 100% correct 👍

[@Bamaman14k]

Now that's funny, I don't care who you are. I've always said that the sane man will change the channel if he doesn't like the programming, instead of calling the network and complaining.

[@sherrilee230]

You know what the hell with we are enjoying a family video here there is nothing wrong with anything this is not mgm

[@dickjohnson1158]

I think som times folk are just plain trolling

[@rickytart1028]

Much enjoyed...You do excellent work. NC folks here...

[@OldIronRC]

Jonathan your videos at 480p are way better than most 1080p videos. KZbin is it is littered with High Resolution garbage, finding a quality channel like yours is a blessing.

[@cogidubnus1953]

Videos look fine to me Jonathan...Disregard the critics!

[@darylgardner509]

Stop explaining the videos quality. I am watching for the process and as long as I can see it, I am fine. I love the whole process and how you go about it. My family was in the junk car business and my neighbor was a welder...years ago. This is a combination of a part of my life that I miss....thanks for bringing it back....

[@ervingoertzen7233]

Hey Jonathan. I know there is a lot more to what you’re doing , but I sure look forward to each and every one of your vide

[@nodnostrebor4300]

This video shows looks like great progress to me. During the same period of time, all I managed was to fix the laser mouse on my computer, which had gone on the blink due to a tiny broken wire. Tiny, tiny stuff, my old eyes can barely see. Hooray for me too. I was shocked, when I plugged it back in and it worked again after a week of being disabled. It is what it is, once again.

Don't listen to him Jonathan. They're missing the point.

[@thewilliamss2392]

I agree there's films are content gold

[@marygarner5249]

Jonathan EVERY THING YOU do Is GOOD To Me THANK YOU FOR SHARING love how you explain everything thank you as always for taking us along 😁

[@johanvangelderen289]

I'm a younger senior. Lol. I've done mechanical repairs on my own stuff for almost 50 years. I've done some body work after a wreck or three over the years. Mostly involving wrecked fenders and attaching used parts. Nothing as involved as what you are doing. I have a 4k phone I watch this on. I also follow the guys at Cold War Motors in Canada. Both of you do amazing stuff with crude tools and old fashioned methods. I'm here for the knowledge, not the pretty pictures. Keep doing what you do. Best of luck with your project.

[@xozindustries7451]

The quality of the video is the content, there's a ton of videos on KZbin that you can watch that's 4K with useless content if anyone wants to watch that

[@phillipcortel6330]

There is nothing wrong with the quality of your videos Jonathan!! They come out just fine. No different than any of the other channels I watch. It's the education,your knowledge you pass on! Like straightening out that frame on the 39. I thought for sure you were going to take it to someone you knew and pull it on a frame rack. But you didn't! You used your roll back,a piece of I beam,and a block of wood. Amazing how you got that frame back to where it belongs! And a little heat, a body hammer. You are a good hands on teacher. Each time us viewers get to see what you know and how to go about figuring things out! Thank you Jonathan!

[@painisreal4299]

I love your videos friend thank you for what you do God Bless

[@rodney1818]

I love how nonchalantly you always say. No big deal. We just got to make a new panel.

[@karlpower3009]

Looks okay to me 👍. Keep up the great work 🍺

[@brianregner5209]

Jonathan, if anybody doesn't like your videos, they don't have to watch. Simple as that. Don't let them get to you. To me, your videos are always great and I always start them with a thumbs up. Also, you're getting close to 100k subscribers. This video has about 7,500 views while I'm typing this. It has over 1,000 likes, and a whopping 6 dislikes. Seems to me like everybody is pretty happy with your videos. Keep up the awesome work Jonathan. Take care.

[@Dwayne7834]

I don’t see any problem with your videos. Looks good on my end. I always enjoy your videos and information . Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.

[@faerieSAALE]

Considering what you had there in the beginning when you pulled it out of the barn - I'd say you're working miracles on this Chevy and I hope that it appreciates it.

[@sherrilee230]

Oh it will, it will look so proud going down the road

[@faerieSAALE]

[@alanwilliamson9350]

I havent seen any issues with the video quality on my end.

[@49walker44]

Who the heck is complaining, I'm amazed when I see you've put out another video a day after the last one. I thought you must have help, editing can be all night if you let it. Thanks Jonathan for kicking butt so I can lay around and watch your videos 😁

[@LarryDeSilva64]

It always takes a lot of cutting and fitting because after all you are working with old original sheet metal and new metal so i think you are doing a great job considering what you have to work with.

[@gunsndogs49]

I admire your style . You don't waste money and your work around solutions are satisfying as can be . Thanks for sharing your work !

[@ericfowler4248]

Let me say this I'm watching in 144p I believe. Someone needs to take a chill pill and stop complaining. Jonathan you just keep doing what your doing. Just remember these folks wouldn't even know you including me if you hadn't never uploaded a video. I'm just thankful that you uploaded these videos and the rest should be as well.

[@nap8187]

Fellow person with crappy internet, hello!

[@BeyondAIMan]

Your videos are still better than my TV reception used to be back in the day when I lived in the country 1970's DON'T GIVE UP they are plenty good enough.👍

[@flick22601]

When Jonathan says something is simple, I sit back and scratch my head wondering how. I'd be so frustrated trying to deal with that panel I'd probably walk away and hope it would fix itself. Such a pleasure to watch somebody doing things I don't think I'd ever be capable of. And Jonathan, there is no need to apologize, much less listen to the complainers, about your video quality. You're doing one bang-up job my friend.

[@kimchipig]

Jonathan, your videos may not be the best technically, but your skill, ingenuity and wonderful demeanour make your work really nice to watch. I am not much of a mechanic but I'd gladly come and clean your shop until it shines. That's what I am good at.

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Your videos are *ALWAYS* entertaining my friend! Keep up the great work Jonathan!

[@rickroth7640]

Jonathan, I’m going into the hospital on this Thursday February 13th for a major cancer surgery and I’ll have my phone along to keep up on your progress , keep up the good work and to heck with the complaining of the haters, I think the quality of your videos are fine! Your videos will help me with my 7 to 10 day stay in ST LOUIS Barnes hospital ! Thanks man. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@dennis51357]

Man don’t worry about video quality, the old school skill you show us is awesome. Many people would have just junked this car and you are trying to get a historical piece of art back on the the road. Thank you for your time and your skills and showing all of us what can be done ✅

[@daved7024]

Johnathan, Pay no attention to the negative nannies about the video quality. I love all your videos and appreciate the time involved producing them. Thank you🙂👍 GOD BLESS 🙏🇺🇸

[@guillermonieri4203]

Your videos look just fine. What is important is you showing us how to fix things and make them work with what you have on hand, and that is exactly what we are getting out of your videos. Thank you.

[@fava7753]

Tin trim and weld up not a problem time and patience is all it takes to get it right . Keep up the excellent work Jonathan , save the classics your doing just fine . Wheres all the helpers you had , have they all bailed out .

[@DCrockett1]

Always people think they can do better. Thank you for sharing your videos with us. Hang in there. Really like what you do!

[@chevyfan82]

The joy of aftermarket panels, but like you said nothing that can't be fixed. Video's are fine to me don't worry about it just keep them coming, Im looking forward to the seeing more on the franklin.

[@d.k.9328]

Learn something new on most your videos Jonathan. Thank you sir. I feel your pain on slow internet connection.

[@mikehorning4060]

Jonathan, I have been working on/building/restoring cars for 60+ years and yet I have learned something from every video that you do. Thank you for sharing real, practical, creative ideas to save the legacy of old cars. I am thrilled that you quit smoking because you will be saving cars for many MORE years. Eating hard candy is NOT important for what you are teaching us. Eat on and as Mr. Spock of star trek says, "live long and prosper" As for the morons, er I mean people who are complaining about the video quality, or sound quality, or editing.... please go pay $15.00 for a Hollywood movie at a theatre and watch overpaid actors spew BS... for me, I want to continue to learn car art from a true artist. God bless you and your family Jonathan and keep up the awesome work.

[@rodney1818]

I know of a guy named Jonathan W that can fix that trunk lid.

[@lenkowalyshen9571]

I love any of your videos , you do stuff that I would love to do but I can't and watching you gives me much enjoyment .........Anyone that complains send them to me I'll take care of it . I love the old cars the first starts the projects the tows and the Willy's whippet , the weekend builds , the barn finds .......the motor cycles build

[@messenger6279]

do what you can.there's always someone.complaining.about something

[@russdavis1960]

Video quality is THE content, NOT the resolution. As for the panel fitment. I've found over the years that aftermarket panels 'get you in the ballpark' and are RARELY a direct fit. What you are going thru to get the panel to fit is pretty much 'par for the course'. Keep up the good work and thank you for bringing us along on the journeys of repairs, rescues, and recoveries.

[@ronaldclark2624]

Not to worry. You will overcome! It looks much better! Just a friend Ron

[@barfass]

Replacement panels are the worst to work with. However, in some cases like this one, it is a necessary evil. Keep up the good work and hope you get it done for the drive in.

[@jerrymckenzie4484]

I am now 76 years old and of all the cars that I have owned there are two that I miss most. I had a 1953 Ford convertible and a 1956 Ford pickup and I sure do miss them. For my 70th birthday I purchased a 1997 Corvette that I had always wanted. Just through this in there...

Hey Jonathan dad had a 39 Master 85 when I was 13. He found it on the back row of a local car lot. It looked awesome to be 25 at the time. He approached the lot manager who responded "you're welcome to drive it but it knocks" Dad being very familiar with these cars and engines from his teen and 20's years went on a drove the car around the block. Dad looked at Mon sitting in the passenger's seat and said "I know exactly what is wrong with the engine and how to fix it" He went right back to the lot and got a good looking body clean interior 39 Master 85 for a song. He drove it home, put it up on heavy wooden blocks he had sourced somewhere I forget, and proceeded to pull the main bearing caps (and the rod caps as well if I remember right:. There were shims under the bearing caps back then since the bearings were poured babbit as opposed to precision inserts a few years later . All the original shims were in place. Dad pulled shims as he had learned in his younger days to "freshen her up" put the pan back on and filled her up with oil. Cranked it up, no knock, oil pressure came on up and away we went! The old girl served him well as a work and putz car for the longest until the next Galaxie or Impala caught his eye. Seeing you do this car such kind justice in restoring one of the awesome automobiles of the time that put America on wheels is amazing. But to see the old girl come out of the basically the scrap heap and be restored brings tears to my eyes. I learned how to shift a standard in that old Master 85 and have fond memories of my dad (a really great man and father) and I just goofing off going to the store for a soda and candy bar. That was 58 years ago so to see the old 39 Master 85 "Betsy" as we called her vicariously come back to life through what you are doing for the old Girl is truly moving and very emotional to me. Daddy would be proud of you guys!

You're not Universal pictures, you're a dude that likes building stuff and sharing it with us. Your quality is tip top for the budget you work with, and your videos are much appreciated.

[@circledhomestead4358]

Looking great! Keep it up my friend!

[@bcgrittner]

Don't worry about your video quality. It's fine. Butt welding that panel is the only way to go. Lap welds gather moisture and other crud over time. After market panels seldom fit just right. Your panel isn't too bad. I've seen worse. I'll trade winters with you. Here in Minnesota I moved snow for several hours today. The snowblower and the shovels got a workout today. So did I.

[@deathcar]

I know it's gotta be frustrating dealing with after market body panels that don't fit right, but it sure is interesting watching the theorizing and craftsmanship to get it right...always amazed!

[@virtuestreams2616]

I see no issues concerning the quality of your videos. Keep on keepin’ on because I enjoy your content and your story Jonathan!

[@michaelstagar525]

Great Videos! The boys & I watch all the time. Note: When we get a 'after-market piece', we see how it will fit; then we normally divide the part into smaller sized pieces and bend, reshape, resize, stretch, etc. Why? Answer: there is always a misfit in the aftermarket piece that is either to short, to long, overlap, under-lapped, straight, but should be curved, or curved, but should be straight, etc. Therefore, by cutting the misfitting aftermarket piece, doing what is necessary, we avoid the 'crazy' struggles (and swearing) we had to do with the misfitting piece by at least 50% of time saved. Keep up the good work. Well, back to the shop!

[@rchrdtppr]

Another great video! The repair is coming together nicely. I agree regarding the after-market parts. I was re-doing the floor and rear quarter panels on a 1981 VW Rabbit many years ago, and I had major issues with the floor panels. I enjoy you videos a lot! Greetings from Thor in Norway.
