Chris Runge shares a brief overview of building a body buck from scratch. This video highlights taking a concept drawing and turning it into a usable wood buck without computer aid. The buck will then be used for shaping the aluminum body for the new Porsche Flat Six Powered, RUNGE R2 build.

He's probably not afraid to show exactly how he does it because he knows very few people, if any, would devote the same amount of effort as him to accomplish something like this. Amazing.

[@jjwalter5897]

This is the same process as model plane building but on a larger scale. It isn't difficult once there is a little experience.

[@cuttersgoose]

It’s just that most of us can’t, because we’re just to damn busy working our lives away...

[@maxlobry4508]

It does bodywork as it was done a long time ago, nothing secret Showing this might even make some people go into those kind of career

[@hayderhassan382]

Yes, also this is a dying art, coach building. Its some serious skills that takes yrs to master.

[@rfwillett2424]

He would love it if more people did what he's doing. I think that's why he puts so much effort into teaching.

[@chrisgenovese8188]

When I searched for making cardboard mold for fiberglass, I did not expect to find something like this! So sick. Bravo!

[@jessejohnson159]

Nothing like 'building' the car twice! Nothing but RESPECT Chris! 😎🏆🏆💪

[@VintRestGarage]

SUBSCRIBED: Just came onto RUNGE car build site by accident, as I was looking up “making rounded fenders”. Very happy and to be a part of the viewer build. Learning to work metal is a complicated art form that we all know is extremely difficult. Hoping to learn as much as I can and apply as I will be attempting a Porsche 356 Coupe steel body. But you have me thinking about aluminum. Thanks for the instructional videos. VintRestGarage

[@ilyazubok5392]

I can say, you are the most talented and hard- working person. I am from Russia and back in 1980s we had as TV programm called " you can do this" about incredible inventions and car designs made of crap in their garages . Look at one of those named PANGELINA. Big respect to you. And such a tasteful car you got.

[@MonkeyFabGarage]

This stuff is so cool. Was super happy to see you posted a new video this morning. Keep it up.

[@billfether9397]

wow ....almost speechless your level of skill... i would expect you to be 65 years old . Absolutely incredible sir

[@huntingtonbeachsasquatch]

Nice! looks like a fun time!

[@brentdobson5264]

It would be a great thing if the world had a lot more of this type of car craft and creativity in it !

[@OzGecko]

Chris, thank you so much for taking the time to record and share this process, and also coming back here to answer questions. As I commented on (I think) your Instagram post, I'm really looking forward to watching this build come together.

[@DowneastThunderCreations]

You do amazing work, Chris! It's always a pleasure for me to watch your videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@jorgesantoya7151]

i will never look at a cardboard box the same way, thanks for showing your passion

[@IntegraDIY]

Very nice. This is gonna have a much more exotic look to it, instead if a karmann Ghia look. This is gonna be badass when it's finally shaped in metal

[@koolsolutionszx12r55]

Brother you're doing beautiful work. If an old broken down fabricator can I offer you some valuable advice? Build yourself a frame jig and get out of the floor. It don't seem like a lot today but all that crawling about in the floor will destroy your back and knees. Outside that.... you're the man

[@meteormotorcycle4442]

Thanks for the videos, great tutorial and demonstration on building a buck! Each design and finished car is "A Masterpiece" !

[@wearemilesfromnowhere4630]

Admiral work. Reminds me of my work style some 35 years ago. Very rewarding. Thanks for posting.

[@5tr41ghtGuy]

This video demonstrates what an artisan can do with relatively simple tools and materials. Bravo!

[@SquirrelsForAll]

Chris, you're skills are just amazing. I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@deltavee2]

Fascinating. Thank you for sharing your mind with us, Chris. Rarely do most people have any insight into the design process.

[@jettrink4041]

What a privilege to watch you work. You are an artist and I absolutely love your work.

[@dlux703]

Can't wait to see the skin/metal on this one. It's already looking beautiful.

[@emc2184]

Yeah, ... but is he gonna use ready made panels, or shape the aluminum himself ??? Id'e like to watch him make them. !!!

[@Rob-vv5yn]

Thank you for posting and sharing your work, inspiring stuff

[@BossaNossa1]

You are already a hero in my book! God Bless You!

[@guywilson187]

This is inspirational. Huge thanks for taking the time to share in detail your process. I am eager to watch this project progress and unfold. Keep up the amazing job 👌👍👌

[@marcuslimbaugh4592]

I love your work. Thank you so much for showing the processes. You are the man

[@steverobb5360]

Awesome work! Can't wait to see the metal start to flow!

[@johnkilo3]

Thanks for taking the time to make these videos. They're really interesting and inspirational.

[@theeastman9136]

Fascinating process; I wish I were a young man again to get into this kind of work. Thank you.

[@bthomasx]

Great work mate

[@ZeroGatlin]

Congratulations!!! you've been promoted to my top 5 Hero list.... If you had an apprenticeship and I was 20 years younger I would jump at it!!! Great work... Very inspirational... I wish I had your talent and knowledge!!! Keep at it!!

[@bthomasx]

Art, real art

[@MarkJohnson-hw3gi]

Beautiful design and great execution as always.

[@arturasstatkus8613]

Best luck,for You,and Thanks for what You Do👍

[@jasonkidd9736]

Chris the detail and time you put into this, it is inspiring. One day I'll get their. Baby steps

[@bobbiecharliehernandez3311]

Wow....I admire, envy, and appreciate your mind and skill set. Amazing. Truly talented.

[@NewZeroland]

Maaaan this is so inspiring! Thanks for sharing your process.

[@ralphalvarez5465]

I saw your interview with Jay Leno and test drive of one of your creations... It was amazing and you were so humble about your skill and vision. The combination of German design was so wonderful, a combo of Porsche, Mercedes and VW... Like Jay said it's great to see a young man keeping the old skills alive, the hand building of sports cars.. it's great to have cars that can do 200 mph but there's nothing like building something from the ground up and listening to it come alive.. keep up the great work and God bless you..

[@dalesmith4021]

I really enjoy watching your progress. Very impressive for sure. This is a car deserves to have many more made.

[@djsonfire0001]

Awesome! Great design work!

[@MegaPoxie]

Your building skills are only superseded by your design work! This car should go into full production so more people can enjoy it. Keep up the fantastic work.

[@daVidFonda]

What a piece of artwork !

[@toddlehman928]

I was a pattern and mold maker for the RV industry. This is how we did it before CNC machines. We first created a build table, then created profiles based on dimensions and design lines, then you fill it in with tje correct radius' and general shape. Add filler blocks, then start filling with Bondo and clay. Primer. Rough sand (36 grit) and straighten lines.2nd prime and final sanding, wax it all up, then build the mold off of it

[@DavidSmith-ve5kj]

I can see your passion in your work, congratulations.

[@bobbywarrior1434]

Amazing work, thanks for sharing

[@autoworldcorporation6192]

Great tutorial!! I have done this for years (twenty years ago) doing some of the cars I made. I also taught this stuff in my restoration classes in Lee and Hillsborough counties night school vocational programs. You did a great job of explination of the process. It is refreshing to see you NEW guys doing what we did back when. You are keeping the spirit alive that I thought was dying (or REALLY dead). Thank you.

[@julianh4]

Very nice work. Thanks for sharing.

[@krakenfelt1]

Amazing, very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.

[@frandewitt311]

[@cinema2k]

Congratulations, it looks great.

[@planetzebulon21]

Looks like the display of '50s bucks at the Prototype Museum in Hamburg. Well worth a visit, for all fans of innovative wrenching.

Bucket list for me👍🏻👍🏻

[@johndeerman2105]

Glad I found your channel, beautiful work congrats!

[@alexsombaty470]

This is some old school engineering right here. The same way old Jags, and many other sports cars were built...!

[@taketheredpill1452]

sweet man, thanks for the step by step

[@caleb7418]

[@abelincoln95]

Chris!! Nice of you to share this video with us!! Hoping that "some day soon" you get some financing to get a larger facility & talented staff to make more of your cars. They are truly beautiful creations that should be the collector cars of the future..

[@escaragami]

I so admire your skils. Live long and produce plenty.

[@DerredmaxTRIAX]

Wow i'm impressed!

[@FilterYT]

Super cool Chris! Also, congratulations on your Jay Leno Garage appearance, that was a neat surprise. You deserve to be recognised like that.

[@jwhrivnak]

Wow, nice job

[@patrickczeiszperger2334]

Hi Chris, amazing work, learning to shape metal is on my bucket list. I am a cabinet maker and luthier. I would recommend to you purchasing a large edge sander and bandsaw. It would make creating your buck much faster. Thanks for sharing your work!

[@thomashendricks2126]

Outstanding work. You are truly a visionary on design and fabrication . I think if you had a CNC machine and computer doing the bucking frame in metal , your labor would be minimal . But having make this car by hand truly takes an artist. Love your video

[@thefloatingrock]

Extraordinary!

[@rockislandlife6383]

Simply awesome.

[@THOMASTHESAILOR]

Beautiful !

[@barbaraannen8126]

You have an amazing artistic eye
