34 Ford Coupe Street Rod Build - Fitting A Fiberglass Hood

[@floydbecnel3434]

Bob, I'ii bet you are "itchin" to finish with the fiberglass! 😁🤪

[@forrealforreal7203]

They can say what they wanna say about fiberglass but it's much easier to work with than metal and it don't rust...thanks again Bob I enjoy watching you work.

[@TheRoadhammer379]

No it's not 😂

[@forrealforreal7203]

@@TheRoadhammer379 No what's not? If you're saying fiberglass is not easier to work with you're dead wrong. If you're saying fiberglass rust you're dead wrong about that too.

[@briankinnear7461]

Nice work on the fiberglass and the hood repair. It looks pretty damn fine. Look forward to seeing what's next. Still catching up on videos. Be safe and stay well.

[@TheCanadianBubba]

Most people do not know how much sanding goes into even a rat rod... keep diggin' Bob 👍

[@kevinl.2291]

Hood is coming along nicely Bob. Stay safe in that southern heat. 👍😎✌️

[@johnwebb9242]

I wanna hear that big 429 whenever you finally get there. It’s gonna be awesome! No rush. You look like you’re having a lot of fun with that fiberglass hood.

[@richardsmith-qy6vl]

You really got a lot of hours in this fiber glass work but your getting it most others would have gave up or not even attempted to taking on such a big job the car is really going to be nice considering what you started with . Nothing fit at all my hats off to ya Bob great job keep up the good work..

[@donlandenberg8126]

Simple, easy day. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@stansmith1911]

It takes a steady hand and great skill to run that grinder like that. AWLSOME Bob.

[@kenfrazier616]

sweet finish, nice trick using the cardboard

[@RMDeuce762]

Bob, you're getting good at slinging that glass. Keep up the great work. I look forward to your videos

[@stansmith1911]

It’s lookin good Bob. It’s gonna be great!

[@whatzthis64]

I really enjoy your videos and your work, have a great week. Brian..

Working on fiberglass is like pounding yer head up against the wall. It feels good when you're finished.

Looking really good Bob! Ready for some cheese. 😉✌

Once again Bob you prove that a square peg can be put into a round hole. Geter Done

[@stevecr8934]

You take 3 fiberglass hot rods and build one good car from it. No Wonder Your a Rat Rod builder. Good work as always. Like the hood holddown 'take aim' device.

[@scottbovard5552]

Good to see you’re back at it. Keep up the good work.

[@ericfehlhaber2012]

Hey Bob if you would have shined a light from underneath it might have given you the outline. Thanks for the videos, the rat rod coming along great.

[@johnkranz4004]

Came along way Bob Very Nice

[@YenaS-l7g]

Looking good 👍 hood fitting nicely ❤😊

[@floridian7143]

Thanks for sharing!

[@jeregriffith6277]

the hood is comming out great, like always great work to watch

[@danquaas683]

Looking good, Bawb. I have a '33 which should have the same hood, and the body line did not go all the way up to the radiator shell, but stopped about 2 1/2" from the shell. I found that working with fiberglass is actually quite fun, and not as itchy as I thought it would be. Stay cool!

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

Itchy was a little bit annoying for a minute ... now it's not even an issue.

[@shanewright6958]

Looking good Bob 👍👍

[@chevelleranch7481]

Nicely taking shape Bob!

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

Thank you kindly ... slowly but surely moving in the right direction.

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

Looks like that exhaust fan set up is working great! Hood is looking good too Bob!

[@FOG-321]

After watchin these fiberglass vids I'm convinced I'll never touch the stuff. Rock on Bawb. : )

[@sgtcharlie2512]

WOW WOWGREAT JOB THANKS BOB, I GOT TO DO THE SAME ON MY, 5W COUPE, NOW I KNOW HOW

The old Glass Rod is coming along nicely 👍

[@randymacsgarage]

Loving it Bawb.

[@randymacsgarage]

Hey Bob just a friendly reminder you probably already know this but you might think about incorporating Ground Wires or tabs etc. so all the body bolts go to gr or whatever just sayin is all.

[@rustyaxelrod]

Looks pretty cool right now👍

[@2thehook773]

Dang Bawb! Looks good from my house!

[@xKmotx]

Well, the day is coming when you gonna have to sweep up that shop and I feel for ya Bob! 😷😋

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

I hear ya. I have that leaf blower to get most of it but everything in the shop will have to be wiped down. I would have to do that everyday so I'll just leaf blow it every now and then until I finish the project.

[@danquaas683]

@@RatRodBobBuilds Wait for a windy day and get the leaf blower out. Put that dust into the next county!

[@johnwebb9242]

I wanna hear that big 429 whenever you finally get there. It’s gonna be awesome!

Way to go Bob!!!

[@glenncutright9769]

Hi Rat Rod Bob dont wory about that low spot in the hood you dont want too mutch filler on it it will crack that hood is going to vibrate like crazy you are doing a fine job Ohio hotrod

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

Thanks for that comment, but, I gotta fix it, even though it's a Rat Rod. Gonna use fiberglass mostly to fill it in, which will make it even stronger.

[@glenncutright9769]

[@dlansburg2673]

Working the night shift,stay cool!

[@OwenFromOhio]

I find this project really interesting and different... you are doing some great stuff with that fiberglass. I'm unsure if you have experience with its application, but I'm impressed with your cardboard and glue gun use. It all makes sense to me.

[@tertessa]

Brings back memories 😊

[@waynegrant9594]

Great video Bob !! Im a painter and i hate fiberglass, metal is more my game ! But you got it looking great !!! 👍

Looks great buddy 👌💪💪

Great work Bob

[@lenmercer7443]

Hey Bob awsome work you do, I noticed you are having e ing trouble with your hot glue, try denatured alcohol it softens up the glue and you should be able to pop off what ever.

[@redmike7911]

99% isopropyl alcohol works well to remove hot glue.

[@katmandu8208]

👍🏻🍻

[@johnjason7204]

Bob if you laid masking tape to give you the proper width of opening then grind up to the masking tape No guess work

[@timothyandrews2157]

[@JamesCollins-t3j]

Sometimes if you put a bright light under the fibreglass you can see thru it

[@snupi_nut]

So you can do "BODY WORK " haha .

[@williamguillIII]

I wonder how a honeycomb grill insert would look? What'ya think Bob?

[@chuckster6513]

Hey Bawb, I bet there are people seeing you work those hood gaps thinkin it's close enough. But anyone who has adjusted those gaps knows the tiniest little bit of too much or too little gap looks like a major defect when the final paint is done.

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

Exactly!

[@AaronBrevik]

Where has Red been? That boy is slacking.

[@bluedog373]

shoulda made a paper pattern of the top of the grille shell and taped it to the hood to get he shape.

[@johnblue9806]

Need to have on a respirator while dealing with fiberglass, even with the fan on.

[@JohnFunches-qu1zg]

BOB! WHEN YOU ARE BUILDING A RAT ROD -AND WHEN WORKING WITH FIBERGLASS?- THERE'S A LOT OF PERCUSSION FITTINGS - JUST BECAUSE IF A RAT ROD DOESN'T MEAN YOU JUST THROW IT- TOGETHER ANY KIND OF WAY😅😊

[@morgansword]

Looked to me that it was close to dark or even plainly dark outside. Not easy, and many can do if they watch how you are doing it.... everyone learns from watching, a monkey see.. monkey do! Nurse is still figuring out my medications, why so cold and shaky, then sweat like I was down in Mississippi. Every day and night.... plumb krazy feeling so wrong... got to watch your health Bob as its the only one who does care about you is you. That much that is. Everyone has friends and so they will come in the middle of the night if needed, not many would go that far

[@nitroracer-rollingthunderm9033]

Cross hairs

[@johnwebb9242]

Maybe just leave the wood blocks on the hood. It’s a rat Rod. Who cares.
