This One Got BLASTED!

[@billymasoner3735]

Nice to see these all in one video instead of a long drawn out series. Only thing I’d like to see is the finished result in more detail. Give us a good before and after clip at the end!

[@davestewart9146]

It’s nice to see someone taking the time to do the repair right, really nice work 👍😁

[@BlueCollarKyle]

Thank you!

[@michaelcliffe562]

Hard to convey to a layman how grueling a projekt like that can be. It's step after step after step and takes skill and patience and some stamina. Hats off to you!

[@josephhettiger2711]

Love the longer in-depth videos. I could watch these repairs for hours

[@jondoe9753]

Well finally a real body shop collision repair video I've seen so many of these other clowns on here doing stuff totally the wrong way good job 👍I've been in the collision repair industry for 30 years you did it the way I would have done it

[@TapiaJ]

Lol. I know what you mean. Those are a bunch attention seekers with no skill.

[@ThurgoodJenkinz]

He's an actual A tech.

[@dave1956]

We used to refer it as blasted too! I heard stories of years ago when they rebuilt stuff hit far worse than this. I do remember a Jetta and an Accord that we clipped. Another time we had a new 2013 Explorer in the shop with under 1,000 miles on it. It needed both front rails. After we had it all cut apart the owner came in to retrieve something from it. I thought for sure that she would have heart failure when she saw her vehicle, but she never said a word.

[@Raorl173]

Why would people pay for cable when we have this kind of content for free, this is great!!

[@BlueCollarKyle]

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoy watching

[@mahmoodshah5630]

Pdr dend pulls out easiest but he cut spots, skill is that he made like factory

[@JoeGrow-pj3nr]

Your internet free

[@tires2burn]

I've been retired for 16 yr's from auto body & watching you brings back memories. You do a very good job and are lucky to have modern tools. I never had access to a spot welder, everything was plug welded with lots of finish work. I still have most of my tools in my Snap On Roll a Way and probably will until the day I die. Its nice to see the younger generation do good work. To many car lot shops these days.

[@andycampbell4102]

Great video, skill & technical expertise. Keep them rolling!

[@waltkasak6631]

That customer hit the body shop master lottery. Your skill, workmanship, and attention to detail is top notch. I’m sure this was all done quicker than most as well. I can only hope to get a craftsman with half your skills if this were my vehicle. 👍

[@J956-v1v]

The real deal .#1 in my book. I say this because you really helped me out in my work.

[@garyjarvis4058]

Like it never happened. Excellent workmanship! Thanks for sharing.

[@imskjrpops6389]

This is like a whistle blower video for the auto collision repair industry. One shop may tell you 6 months 🤷🏽‍♂️ thee other may say it’s not even worth it but yet this guy gets it done in a week nice amazing work good job great video...

[@davidbrown9784]

Awesome bodywork ! and ladder repair:)

[@edgarmata788]

Very professional work 👏🏼

[@santosrodas3174]

I have being doing body work for 5 years, and never seen work like the ones you do. Your skills are amazing thank you for teaching us.

[@chrisforker7487]

Another excellent video, I love seeing it all coming together.

[@scotte3509]

Bud you do very nice work. Some of these negative comments reek of jealousy. I’m not a body man I’m a mechanic and like you I don’t do shortcuts. Does it take me longer? Yes. But, I don’t get comebacks. Nice work man very nice indeed.

[@BlueCollarKyle]

Thank you I appreciate that!

[@aaronmarshall1782]

What did you put on the gas tank inlet with all those sparks how do you keep it from blowing up/ catching on fire ?

[@CRXgc94Chock]

I work at a used cars Dealership and repair cars to look beautifuls and clean but when I see you work I really feel like an ant i have to much way to walk you are such an inspiration to be better day to day. Thanks for share a little of you big work

[@1967250s]

Incredible work. Most impressed, and that is saying something.

[@anthonymorgan7972]

Excellent job mate very professional like factory work 👍👍👍👍👍

[@BlekSheep_1]

This is awesome! At 54 years old, I still think I should take an auto body class at tech. I was in machine shop, or, as school calls it..."machine & tool technology".

[@carlosvalencia3388]

Great job on the repair. Gotta make it like nothing ever happened.

[@bayay_3046]

Did you leave out that triangle glued in piece from the side seen at 5:18? It is not visible when you fit the outher panel the final time.

[@DanLeeds10]

Great video and enjoy watching all your content but really wish you’d do some longer more detailed after paint or finished shots at the end, it would’ve been brilliant to see this one completely finished for 20 seconds rather than a small compressed picture :)

[@lotuslotus718]

Enjoying every moment of this project

[@redda991]

Graet work . Were do you get the pannel from

[@jimfeaster4837]

Super video ! Name of tool that pinches metal togather?

[@earlribaudo4807]

Great video, good to see a big job, like too see more. Oh, great repair too your stool!!!!LOL

[@michaelgilchrist851]

👏 beautiful process

[@jamespn]

This is so cool, it’s like putting a puzzle together with welds, rivets, body filler (not too much), primer and paint, nice work. I remember using those spot welders at Chrysler, just watch out for seam sealer, otherwise you’d get a face full of sparks.

[@rogerghiardi7723]

Man you have got skills dude

[@JasonTylerRicci]

New subscriber here just showing my support. Working with metal is a fine art, and you Sir are quite the artist.

[@Wtrxprs007able]

Thats one hell of a massive job. Either people can pay for the repairs there or the insurance there must not like paying people out. Here in aus, the insurance assessors would just see it from the outside and write the car off, give you the agreed payout and send you on your way to buy another car. At least here we get to see what kind of job it is to carry out the repairs. Big props to you and your shop for taking on such jobs!

[@jascrn5355]

Great work. Great videos. What would you charge someone to this.

[@dstretch33]

This is high quality bodywork!

[@shawnswnh1054]

Wow excellent work!! What is the aerosol paint you were spraying on the inner panels? What brand and number?

[@brianthomas4532]

Looks like sem ez coat. Comes in a bunch of factory matched colors

[@johnnyshd8250]

I took a 3/4 shank bolt with a 4 inch plate, welded a nut on it. Cut a hole big enough for the shank to fit thru and attach the plate. No flying clamps that could take your head off. Works great for rough pulls.

[@abdullast3434]

Great job 👏🏼

[@Alien415]

What settings do you run on your welder.? I have a Miller attic but I struggle with finding the settings for panels. Thanks

[@JonathanMiranda-i2f]

❤i love how you work on cars . im learning😊

[@richmondkishundat7780]

Your Amazing!!! Great Job

[@yesiamfelix114]

Ist there a reason why you do use punched holes instead of RP welds? Is there only one arm for your welding machine?

[@BlueCollarKyle]

No I have 3 different arms but it all just depends if there's access to the backside and if the arms will reach

[@billyparker8903]

Really nice job! Your employer better hang on to you

[@rickcourcy8012]

Again Totally impressed

[@WTFCustomGarage]

24:15 what kind of soil do you use from a spray can? Epoxide?

[@grndiesel]

I've done some resto work on my own vehicles. I've watched auto body shops repair vehicles. I've watched KZbinrs do body work. This guy is in a league all his own. I really want that pinch welder though.

[@aserta]

Probably a good idea to look for one on the second hand or auction market (from a shop closing or such). New... they ... make you cough for one, if you get my meaning. If you have electric repair knowledge, even a non-functional one is worth getting on the offchance it's easy to repair (or for parts to complete a missing set one).

[@foodlover1974]

Good job 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@713nephew4]

What is that called ? @30:46 I wanna learn more on that

[@camsrigley7369]

Hey nice job! Super technical repair and I love your steps of pre fitting parts as you go. I’m new to your channel and not sure what part of the country you work in? It’s bizarre to me that your required to prime and finish your work the way you do.

[@baseerbakhtyari]

Great work

[@emocpr]

Its cost effective repair vs actual cost of the suv? Thanks Great job 💪🏼🔥🙏🏼☝🏽😁🇵🇷

[@hydronation4503]

You damn near built a new truck 🤣 you deserve the big bucks

[@mruizcell]

Great job

[@bgee461]

I'd love to see the big payoff... painted fully reassembled. So much awesome work went into it, a little longer payoff would be super satisfying

[@RamThisDTO]

What is that beige primer you use a lot?

[@nicksilv425]

Why do you weld once Athen cut the tip off? Bc if the build up or? Jw

[@murkadelic422]

Just curious for someone who's a tech but not a body guy. Is a spot weld and a plug weld the same?

[@indiankite7358]

Glad to see you using the handyman secret weapon .

[@mr.mckinnon5680]

Where is the measuring system? How are you measuring these cars. I see you address the direct damage. But how are you locating and addressing the indirect damage? What type of system do you use? Laser or sonar?

[@barbrolidman4899]

Like, don't need either when you're this good? Could easily get by with good tram gages and the Mark 1 eyeball. If proof of OEM conformance not required.

[@amgcarsalonllc]

Nice work brother.

[@danielsplayhouse3804]

I can't believe they actually had you repaired at and they didn't total it out that's a lot of work for an insurance company to pay for

[@hasanaltameemi6289]

Nice job, I wonder if you can tell me what kind of paint did you used to paint the inside of the parts. It's looking like original paint

[@andrewchapokas1989]

I would love to know the same thing!

[@slome4467]

Why you not using Foam

[@sadegyaser9865]

You did very nice 👍💯💪

[@dozer1642]

You do awesome work. It’s amazing to me that this vehicle wasn’t totaled, or was it?

[@aserta]

If the core structure isn't damaged (or it sustains cosmetic damage) then the vehicle can be repaired. You just take off all the schmutz and start from the good parts. By the book work.

[@billy-sx8wx]

Can’t image why people would watch west coast customs you are ten times more the craftsman they are. You are literally repairing a body. You are completely dismantling a face and putting it back together.

[@J_rostro]

Like always awesome work

[@luisrivas6808]

Keep up the good work you'll work means something to your repairing a vehicle like this does not lower the price of the vehicle📋

[@sanchocloset5987]

About time you did some real work 😜

[@brarautorepairs]

I wish I had repairmen like you to fix my vehicles. Most of the time, my cars come back with missing parts or mismatched clips and bolts

[@fernanespin191]

Good job really 👌👍👍

[@J_rostro]

Hey kyle I know you’re fast but How many hours did you put into this repair?

[@HackMasterBlaster]

This is at least a week worth of work. Probably longer

[@charliesgarageusa4986]

You do great work 👍

[@nathanderrick3140]

How come you prime/ highfill don't painters do that

[@IPHONEhn504]

A huge projects how many hours did you have for do that job

[@roysgarage161]

Are you paid flat rate or by the hour..?

[@morrielarsen]

How do you know how far to pull out the crumple?

[@chrisanderson4159]

That a ultrasonic welder ?

[@Mannyp91]

Why do you snip the tip after every spot weld?

[@biglakehotrods381]

If only all the body shops did this kind of quality work.

[@marcussatterwhite]

@Blue Collar Kyle, what kind of drill bit is that your using sir?🤔🙂

[@HackMasterBlaster]

I’ve asked the same question. He won’t say. They look like Matco hyper step bits(I think that’s what they’re called). They work great. No predrilling required

[@daviesautotyres5756]

Awesome job

[@chrisg4270]

Another excellent job well done. 👏👏👏👍 Do you use 6 or 8 mm mig wire. Which works best for you. 👍

[@brad9529]

Head camera is great but like to see more of you, a lot more ;-)

[@masterrhino9106]

#amazing #hardwork #excellentvideo #🎉 #🎊

[@jeffhuntley2921]

Sprinter vans hammers in the sliding door pillar are fun too

[@christianbellemare6037]

Fantastic 🙌🤩

[@brettwilliams1536]

Do anyone know the name of the tool Kyle use to remove seal seamer?

[@istvanbereczkygyor]

Why is the car o'liner frame machine?

[@subiedaddie3481]

that was amazing mate... well done! I was curious if there was any frame damage? Did u have to do a pull on the frame and didn't show it?

[@ronlindsey852]

You are very professional young man,I have been in the auto body profession for 38 years i was just wondering how you keep from cutting up your hands from handling all that sharp metal without gloves?

[@corvellhassell5288]

What's the name of your body shop?

[@Sweeperspelar]

How long did this repair take?

[@chrisanderson4159]

What are u using to record glasses? This is great content, your work is top notch

[@jimfeaster4837]

Air crimper ?

[@georgejesson1944]

Where's your shop at?

[@alexpearson8538]

For the pulling at the beginning, you used a MoClamp sheet metal hook, and 0551 Tight Opening Clamp, then the Dyna Mo C and G clamps. Is there a reason you couldn't come in from behind with the MoClamp 6400 Deep Hook system?

[@johnbozic9920]

Happy New Year Kyle, the best to you in 2021. A big fan of your content, great inspiration to someone starting out in the field as myself but I want to ask, Why do you use a seam sealer without a base coat of DP90 or another aerosol base before using the tube caulk?
