Thanks for showing the wheelhouse mount cover plate install in such detail. My 62's driver side is pretty bad and this gave me a much clearer idea of what I need to do!

[@guzzifabrication3448]

Awesome !

[@Cheez1979]

Man good stuff can’t wait to see the welding of the quarter panel! Keep up the great work!

[@guzzifabrication3448]

In progress !

[@samuelsmith2522]

Hey that is really top quality workmanship! I bet most shops never go this in-depth with the detail, really nice work.

[@guzzifabrication3448]

There are a few... but most no.....

[@ChristerJohansson-ic5be]

How nice with a new video. So clean and super nice. Wordclass quality on your job

[@guzzifabrication3448]

Thank you Sir !

[@miltoncostakis799]

I was worried about those rocker braces and wondering what you were gonna do, but as usual you have it worked out. Great job!

[@guzzifabrication3448]

I found some really nice replacements Milton

[@rescuedandrestoredgarage]

Such an incredible job, brother. What you can accomplish is truly awesome.

[@guzzifabrication3448]

Thanks brother !

[@johnkelly6942]

It feels like that body is coming together pretty quick now. Lot of work to get to this stage.

[@guzzifabrication3448]

It's starting to resemble a 63 again.

[@jimsullivan2729]

I'm really enjoying your restoration videos on the x-frame cars. Looks like your using a 62 lower trunk floor. Probably easier to modify for a 63 than vice versa like I just had to do. I'm sure you are aware that the trunk floors that are listed as fitting 61-64 Chevy full size are actually patterned after a 63. I just had to modify one to fit a 62, which is identical to the rear edge on your panel. I'm looking forward to your next video.

Thanks for following the channel !

[@jonathanvidal3073]

It's crazy the prices of parts and materials...... everything keeps getting more expensive..... $40-$50 for a can of primer.... I know it has zinc in it, but wow ! yeah I see why you say you use it sparingly! Great work by the way, I wish you would build me a car!😁

[@guzzifabrication3448]

Yeah material/parts prices are out of sight with no relief in sight ......

[@ChristopherL0rtiz]

I have that same blue ford tractor lol Question. Is that POR 15 weld thru?

[@guzzifabrication3448]

Ford 5000 w/loader, yes that is P.O.R. 15

[@juliosandoval8244]

That must cost alot of money to rebuild just the metal work probably cost more than finding a running or solid 63 rag for cheaper that dont need that much work

[@blue32nu]

Do you usually Finnish them out complete? As in paint too?

[@guzzifabrication3448]

Yes I do A to Z

[@clintonfranklin2098]

I. Love your videos just wondering I have a 1963. Chevy Impala how much do you charge to replace the floor

12:15 for work like this, screws are better than Clecos?

[@guzzifabrication3448]

The screws are faster and only 1 step instead of 2 ... but either will work.

[@ST-cy6we]

@@guzzifabrication3448 Ok thanks. I appreciate the info!

[@boonieg2460]

Where did you find the reinforcements? I didn't think those were being reproduced.

[@six4chevy780]

The Chevy shop in El Monte CA has them repop. There excellent quality also

[@JamesSmith-oe1ot]

Yes that is where I got mine. They make them I believe and are 100% quality in form and fit. Gonna have to crank up amperage.....heavy duty steel

How much does the full body work cost if you brought a car in for restoration? Ballpark?

[@guzzifabrication3448]

What type of vehicle is it? what does it need? and what is your budget?

@@guzzifabrication3448 65 impala convertible. Not sure on budget honestly. The car appears in great condition when I bought it but I am considering a frame off in the future. I'm sure the nice paint job and outside appeal is covering up plenty of repairs.

[@guzzifabrication3448]

This is the formulafor a full restoration: 1. completely strip / disassemble vehicle 2. install onto rotisserrie 3. media blast / apply DP90 epoxy primer 4. assess repairs 5. start putting numbers and a restoration plan together 6. before any major project is undertaken or considered it's a must to come to the table with a budget.
