Attempting to fit a Cadillac bumper to our 1949 GMC Roadster pickup

[@terryeustice5399]

Since the fire. Since you lost a lot of you tools. You’re doing all this a lot more primitive with what you have to work with.But your imagination and talents overcome. The set backs. Brent you’re one of a kind.That’s why I fell in love with your channel. Plus you’re not shy on helping your friends. You’re work with Karl and the Ramp Truck. And he also came to help you after the tragedy of the fire. But you’re blessed with Esther standing beside you. And I stand with you. Thank you for letting us enjoy your work! 💯❤️👊👍

[@murtkirby9725]

Love the last bumper, no dagmars, but it's your vision, we're just a long for the ride. What a great ride.😊 Love seeing Pablo enjoying his bed and treats. Stay safe and warm.

[@randybourdon2791]

Gotta love the 2nd bumper version, not so heavy looking. I agree, keep the fenders with a clean look.

[@kalinagoedge2777]

And in the end, Pablo gets a treat-bone. Life is good!

[@Uswesi1527]

That Cadillac bumpers, front & rear , are outstanding. No question.

[@gordonbrooks3856]

Great to hear the George Barris reference. Your imagination and inspiration is directly linked to that heavy custom period of early So Cal hotrodding.

[@Kenny_Ded]

Second bumper is just perfect. Add a custom made grill and you've got the formula.

[@rustyaxelrod]

Artists sometimes solicit opinions but seldom do they use them. I’m confident it will look cool no matter which way you go. I’m just gonna watch 😁

[@tomandpeg4818]

Ideas: I like the direction you’re moving in. Here’s an idea: take either inner chrome grill and split it horizontally, then add a filler cross piece in between the top and bottom pieces. That lowers the now expanded grill assembly - possibly enough to fill the gap. Personally, I like the first grill, but either will look great.

[@hippychipsguitars601]

Second bumper, no flares, and build a custom grille=badass!

[@garymccord4277]

Like your vision and it will look like it has the master at work. Brent you never seem to not amaze me with your builds.

[@ghouliesgarage3922]

Definitely the Driver's side is KeWL ! The way that bumper looks is Freaking AWESOME ! This build is just to KuStoM ! I Love it ! Way to go Brent! !

[@professorfalken4600]

Hey Brent, glad to see you made it home safe. Matt’s off road recovery looking for KZbin celebs to do an off road games. No experience required. You drive their vehicles.

[@alanpaulick7815]

Second bumper and a hand made grill will definitely be a winner Brent. Take care.

[@wolfgangricky]

Chrome won't get you home, yet it sure looks great, i hope you keep the waterfall. Ty for taking us along

[@johnny535is]

I'm liking the Bumper, the Caddillac Dagmar look is so common . Digging this build

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Now your new shop is huge. Wow that's crazy awesome to see. Can't wait to see more updates an projects and many more videos soon my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.

[@jongolob6693]

I like the bumper look, especially with a good grill. Rock on Brent.

[@davidcooper3337]

I honestly like the heavy look with the second bumper and the Dagmar's together, made the truck look tough.

[@terrencebuller7676]

Hello Brent, like the second bumper selection better than the first. No flairs now, it makes it to busy. Just my opinion. I do have confidence that you will come up with something awesome. Great program, look forward to seeing the next one. take care 👍

[@richardtaylor6300]

Ya just never know where Brent will take you with his music choices in his videos. He'll go from rad 70's rock to "Stormy Weather". I love it. Nice video Brent the build is looking dope AF.😊

[@SAVERREPUBLIC1776]

Damn Brent you got snow! Well it is November. Keep warm and safe! Great show today!

[@ohiohammerandleversme6875]

Bumper number 2 looks more sleek and custom ! Can't wait to see more of your magic !!!

[@bigbellyrebuilds2778]

Mr.Dude I love that thumb nail that's awesome ❤

[@billyhaddock5540]

Brent, i lv the last bumper that u had shown. will be a cool 49 GMC RP. Cool Pablo guarding the shop and staying warm..

[@howardkoster4026]

Brent, I'm glad you got some insulation installed. I HATE THE COLD !!!! Hopefully, you'll be in your NEW shop soon. Meh, it is what it is. As long as you have heat going now, that's what matters. Dagmar's, yes. Oh, BTW, the heater noise is not that bad, I can hear you just fine.

[@jimternet382]

Brent, again you have a treasure trove of cool pieces parts!! I like your idea with the billet type grill, and the second choice of bumpers. The little bullet looking points are totally cool!! I have seen a lot of custom cars done up with the caddy bumper, save that bumper for another build!! Also see you have got snow already, yuck, never really like snow. I know we'll see 👀 it soon enough! Brent keep the good videos coming, enjoy them all. Have a great week, God bless, jim

[@pkd4697]

Oh the mad science continues! Love the creativity process, its never dull but always exciting. . . wait what. . .oh he changed it again!! LOOOL

[@s.gossett5966]

I like where you're headed with that last bumper without adding the Dagmars.

[@kentmckean6795]

Winner! The heater noise is just fine.

[@bass60guy]

The last bumper is mint! Too bad the caddie wouldn't work but that new bumper you grabbed from the bone yard works!!

[@garybrady9531]

It amazes me to watch you just firefrom the hip like on the hinge build

[@corydriver7634]

This is going to be a cool truck no matter the direction you take it. Your vision has never let you down, just follow it.

[@philjohnston9616]

Second bumper definitely gives it a square look.

[@mertfox3488]

idea:: Front grille opening. -- 61 Buick grille insert. Small sq. chrome cubes. 56 Lincoln coupe - insert. classic. I really smile when you are thinking into the Millennium.. Great creations.

[@RandyH-qf3dc]

Thanks Brent really enjoy your channel. I really like the 2nd bumper without the heavy looking Dagmar. I am also changing my mind. Originally I liked the fender flares. Now with this new bumper especially, I like the smooth straight fender arches. You ar a genius with fab work. However you decide will be awesome.

[@memarks]

I saw that coming! As soon as he started fitting that last streamlined bumper I knew that bugeye bumper had to go.

[@mackinghorn1991]

Full bumper with the pieces on it for sure over the Dagmars!!

[@epah9829]

I like it don't stop. I also Really like when you showed the possibility's van sides, fins, etc.. makes me think!

[@rodparker4514]

Well that’s the final conclusive evidence Brent can do anything.Love that grill ,wow .More please young man !

[@davidmichell]

The second bumper for sure kept chrome. As for the grill, CNC one and black it out. Then waterfall bonnet trim chrome, Mint!👌

[@QuietTom]

Really like the last bumper option. Both wheel well options are good but I lean toward the drivers side clean look.

[@dalekohler5269]

My thoughts put the chrome bar between the Cad Dagmars at the bottom of the grill and just make a belly pan underneath the chrome bar. Less busy and those big caddy Dagmars are enough. Always love your builds and do it your way!

[@billtopka2584]

I agree with you on the second bumper option even though I like the dagmars. Custom make the grill! 👍😎

[@bryansaull7554]

Kinda glad you cut the 'daggys' off (ha ha ask a person that keeps sheep !!) if you do section or narrow the bumper do it behind the overriders. ?? can you cut some stainless on the plasma that way you can create almost any grill form to suit ,without having to waste time cutting and shutting a compromise. Damn snow already ! and the new shop is not covered...Cheers Bryan

[@bruceaskin9645]

Love the final bumper look

[@stevemustaikis6602]

Todays video reminded me of my dad. He had a eye like you have for looking at something and just cutting it. Most of the time it fit. The other thing was the hammer, he had one just like that , not red, but that was his main tool to beat things into shape. I don't recall if he had any other hammers. LOL

[@MrMadkaw400]

I love the grill and bumper without the dagmars

[@murrayandru7527]

I hate to say it , but we lost all our snow.. Hope we get some soon , My hunting season depends on it LOL Thanks for sharing, Always Great Timing on your Videos Brent !!. Thank's

[@johnroof2663]

I like the clean look of the second bumper.

[@jongarner4072]

Love the second version of bumber.

[@guillermonieri4203]

That front end is looking awesome with that one piece bumper. Beautiful!. Thank you.

[@SuperchiefApache]

Second bumper option. Super clean!

[@mikemassey1405]

As I have a48. GMC I really like and enjoy what your doing here. Please do more of this old school work.❤

[@TrendsbySterling]

Second bumper Brent! Make the grill out of round stock to match the flow of the bumper. Cool project.

[@Huskiedrive361]

Last bumper is definitely the best and then make a custom stainless grill insert. Use the Dagmar's on another build.

[@sdbougeno]

i agree the last bumper has the right look. and the headlight bezels look great with it

[@georgeponnay447]

What fun to watch. The heater is quiet, stay warm Brent!

[@CSmith-oz4wp]

SNOW, wow where did the time go it was just summer not to long ago. Hope your trip to the left coast was fun. The videos were great and Karl is a good team mate. On a personal note, older guy here and have been motivated by your videos. I trouble shot my issue with my 2008 F150 truck running out of battery. Check battery it was good, took off alternator off and had it checked, it was bad, replaced it, put back together and it WORKS. By watching you work your magic I felt confident in tackling something new outside my comfort zone. Like, share, thanks mentor Brent.

[@brentcrawford7609]

I like the last version of the bumper and grill best

[@rodneyclements6190]

Custom grill = plasma table??? You could mimic the Chrysler grill without destroying the original. No flares... massage the original openings north a bit. The bumper in the end with those headlight bezels is golden!! Looking great Brent... keep going with the puzzle pieces... it'll create itself lol 😉

[@canifixit3504]

I like the whole bumper you showed last

[@astravanmk2]

So many awesome possibilities. Thanks for taking us along with you.

[@jjock3239]

I feel that the left side look is the win.

[@barryburchell5763]

Hello Brent, glad you went simple on the bumper. Looks great. I can't see the vision on the flares. I hate snow. I moved from Ohio to South Carolina 35 years ago. Love it. Love the channel. Can't wait to see ya in the new shop. Thanks in advance for what I've learned.

[@retiredbutnotdead9929]

I like the Damars with the center bar. You can make the grill then incorporate the turn signals into the headlight bezels to keep the bumpers clean looking. The lower chrome bumper you tried out last is very good as well, but for me… Dammarell’s lives in your old GMC..

[@MrGaryRoberton]

I would consider a two piece grill, and run the chrome center plate across on the horizontal to create a two plane effect, wrapping the bumpers up to the flares, and finish them silver to blend to the chrome. that allows more freedom to adjust things,

[@jamesfino7962]

Yes for the bumper and bordering the grill.

[@WingmanJohnny]

I'll keep watching what ever video you make

[@williamoneal2763]

Good call...leave dagmars off. You could remove the thin horizontal bar and put in a wider horizontal bar to fill out the grill. 😊

[@brentonpaterson7047]

Design and plasma cut your own custom grille. I love the look of the front.

[@SuperfloDee]

Chrysler grill for sure with the caddy blade straight away that’s the ticket..looks super cool🦾🔥🔥🔥

[@britex3186]

I like the daggies. With the license plate middle section smooozed in the middle.

[@eddiecabrera1408]

Personally i love all your builds, especially the music. Gets me so relax to enjoy your videos. As to this build, i like the 2nd bumper and driver side wheel well look.Perhaps you can build a nice grill. Just keeps the car clean and not to busy. Your a master at what you do!!!👍💪🇨🇦

[@brentking-gmailking2570]

I like it. Leave off the dagmars. Great video. Thanks for sharing.

[@lancemclean9273]

I can’t see the fender flares working with the rest of the look. Gonna miss those Dagmars. They were so in your face I loved it

[@dougpeak7591]

Love the old school trucks

[@johndenton5555]

Now, later in the video, I can see your idea with the new bumper section, looking great!👍🇺🇸😎

[@lelandbrown7847]

I live north of Dallas,TX and it was 80 degrees today. I’m originally from southern Idaho and have seen a winter in mid 80s with wind chill temperatures dropped to-74 and that’s why I’m now living in TX

[@DarkFlamage]

Graft '55 Bel Air headlight eyebrow & turn signal lamp onto/into your fenders. Use '55 grille too. Leave the GMC emblem above it all. might confuse a few people! 🤣

[@jimaagenes8445]

Like bumper #2. How hood opening sideways, like a Buick… This build is awesome, what ever you choose to do!

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Right on Brent, you dah man, I’m whichya on that deal!

[@larrymarkee8277]

Still making progress however, good stuff

[@larryconley9438]

The setup you have in now looks best

[@derekgraham2635]

Spence Murray created the dream truck. Rod and custom magazine 1968 I believe

[@kingtut5923]

That is a great looking front bumper

[@haroldkuykendall9078]

Can't wait to see you finish it!!!

[@JestersGarage]

Definitely gotta go with the Dagmars and round arches. Just make a sweet roll pan between the Dagmars. Then whatever homemade grille you can come up with. That would be tops

[@stevedeacon1213]

I really loved the Dagmars though, really unique look

[@bobhartman2571]

I definitely like the look you have now. The Dagmar's would be cool, but that straight look is right on.

[@tomwhiting1338]

ask Pablo he's your copilot. Build your truck! unlike no one else . Hey MOST OF ALL HAVE FUN. shop looks great hoping you can get it in the dry soon. Thanks for sharing

[@RS-rn4ox]

Building a grill insert would look real nice. Keep up the great work, I look forward to seeing more of the GMC.

[@dannyplanck6498]

Ol Waylon Wire would be proud of you !😊

[@ele97735]

I like the smaller bumper. The one you have on it at the end.

[@geoffosberg1633]

So happy to see your new build. ❤

[@geoffosberg1633]

Thank you. I love watching you guys, you feel like family , 👪 ❤

[@stevedolby1819]

Love the last set-up without the Dagmars

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Brent :) I like second choice did also sweet and plus wheel flares nice to also rad grill put V beak in middle help and bottom fill in too ! Plus Pablo The Supervisor Dog 🐕 guide along and Heater with fan not infected voice on your video Brent and super clear!

[@tomredmond]

Liking the last bumper look, I can see the sectioning of it you talked about. When you first put it up to the truck, it made me think of the Checker Cab vehicles, always liked those. If people want to whine and cry about you running a heater to stay warm, they just need to do find some other channel to whine on.

[@josephacerra5987]

This looking like it will be fun Kool Oh no it snowed

[@jasonseal2692]

Just build what you like and I will follow along. As long as Pablo keeps showing up.

[@anetworkservice]

I saw that in you cover photo. I thought it was a wild touch that gave it a monstrous look.
