1955-1957 Chevy wagon spare tire delete, tailgate, filler panel installation for a larger fuel tank

[@mickeywalker8885]

Love those 55 wagons. I have one handed down to me from my grandmother 37 years ago. Built my first engine at 16 for it. Just pulled it into my shop to bring it back to life. Thanks for the great video!

[@pickin6strangs]

Nice job my brothers I like the sound of that welding machine it seems like it's a very good machine.

[@stomper2582]

Those station wagon bumpers used to be popular to delete the tags from the trunk. Just subscribed. Like what I see so far. 👍👉🇺🇸

[@42luke93]

Nice. That was a standard thing from manufacturing or was that an option?

[@REMBRANTTUBE]

Great Job Guys!! 👏👏👏

[@toddperry9860]

Great workmanship!

[@davidfahey5068]

Great video

[@kennethroy9974]

Your doing a good job eye would sand blast and primer those hinges 🤔👍

[@hikmatalsaffar4011]

Good luck it's beautiful

[@WSNO]

Very cool! Love the ideas for the project!

[@bobbywinkler9455]

All the places that you have double panel dirt gets in and stays wet so watch out overlapping stuff

[@hikmatalsaffar4011]

Good job

[@timothyparker9810]

The factory uses a fat tip 3/8 in spot welder and overlaps the spot welds till you have one continuous seeing that's waterproof and then you don't need caulk but they caulk it anyway

[@sjones8738]

That is a nice project to restore a vintage car from the fifties.

[@WitchKing-Of-Angmar]

That last thing they are going to do is restore it.

[@johnmosely4216]

Good job 👍 985

[@timothyparker9810]

Yeah the factory in the old days did drill holes and then weld them but then came along good spot welders and the factory nowadays cold welding with lasers

[@robertmccuistion9218]

Why do call the five window car a tri five. Where did that come from?

[@claycharmsFOREVER]

Was there a reason you didn’t corrosion proof the hinges before you reinstated them?

[@williamhufnagel8790]

How can I sell a 65 thunderbird that doesn't start but has a rebuilt engine... Needs lots of work...

[@garyburgess3829]

Do you still have the spare tire well? If so, what you want for it? I have a 56 handyman that needs that part. Enjoyed your video...

[@robbiebyers6222]

It's just doing a job have done and make shoplook week-

[@pettyguy64]

Sure wish I had that back bumper

[@LORDS-SWORD]

Where did you get that car?

[@CrazyWillie01]

Hi doin a A 56 2 dr wagon needs same parts changed out and was considering the tank change . Will factory filler spout still work , be 56 proprietary I’m sure . Hope to hear back , where did you get your parts CPP ?

[@tjames1858]

The tank is from CPP and it is set up to use the factory fuel fill. The tailgate and rear panel are from Golden Star Classic Auto Parts. The delete kit is from Real Deal Steel.

[@robertlangford5170]

Is that Nomad? I had a '59 Nomad in Collage, MSU. It was a great travel vehicle for a Geologist.

[@blackkimba851]

Get that nasty frame redone man!

[@gbaker9295]

I'd love to see this converted to electric

[@garysgarage.2841]

I don't get the whole spare delete thing. First the fuel capacity was fine for 70 years and second it's a great storage place.

[@bobbywinkler9455]

Patina is Spanish for can't afford a paint job

[@timothyparker9810]

If you're only welding sheet metal you should be using one of their 115-volt mig welders there is no argon tank and it has a cold weld and the only cost 200 bucks

[@kevincruz4045]

You guys need a scatter shield!! Protect your eyes...

[@craigmonteforte1478]

in regards to drilling out the Tailgate Screws ? you are replacing the panel so what’s the big Deal? you can easily Weld new Nuts for threads if you need to that shouldn’t be much of a question ? Worst case drill and tap a Steel Plate heck you guys can even design a better system of a floating Plate that allows you to have some small Adjustment for easier Alignment than the Original Part

[@monkeymangorilla4015]

To classic paint it.

[@jimmielong2748]

The instant I heard harbor freight I lost interest

[@scottmeeker9971]

cheap chinese junk

[@garysgarage.2841]

Why? I got thousands in snap on tools and I also have harbor freight tools. They do the same thing but one does it for less money.

Is that tattoos or is your arms that dirty

[@jamesseaman6919]

Anyone leaving a 55 in a patina , doesn’t get my view!

[@markhuff8541]

Good job
