BUGATTI: MAHOGANY WINDOW MOLDINGS TEST FIT

[@waynegouin939]

Hi. I just watched Chad talking to the high school kids. It was great. Bravo Chad!

[@craigm2667]

After this you could do a duesenberg mormon meteor

[@rond5661]

The gentleman who is doing the woodwork is truly an artist, you are lucky to have someone like that making the wooden pieces.

[@dwartfarquart9590]

Geoff has my favorite winter shirt on. Even same flannel. Since I am refacing my kitchen cabinets. I will think of him often as I progress. Anyway, now, I can even look the part.😅 Fascinating to watch this progress. Jolene is doing a tremendous job filming. So often on restoration shows, the filming is less than stellar. It is the most interesting thing on KZbin. IMHO.

[@danobrien3109]

Love Chads excitement over the door window trim. His comments about solving the Rubicks cube / got the caramel in the chocolate bar was hilarious. Jolenes giggle was beautiful. This wood trim guy is impressive. 👍🇨🇦

[@busterturner8702]

That automobile is becoming a thing of beauty. The amazing craftsmanship and thought that has went into it, is mind blowing.

[@kamanthavalaidum1079]

Hi Chad and Jolene this car is going to turn out to be a Classic thanks to Jeff - Doug and all those you assited you guys and definitely the wedding is gonna be sooner than later enjoying this piece of Art

[@caddyman4672]

Good episode...everyone having a good time in the shop enjoying the friendship in the build. Awesome.

[@russellr1677]

Superb craftsmanship Geoff!

[@tonybastien3692]

Thanks Chad and Jolene another great video.

[@Curleyutube]

Geoff is is an incredible craftsman, this collaboration is going to create a true work of art, a REAL Bugatti. Let Geoff know I would watch his channel daily as well if he had one!

[@andysmith2105]

One of my earliest introductions to true craftsmanship was a Type 38 Bugatti. Seeing how detailed the car was, with safety wire everywhere, engine turned polishing, supercharger - was amazing. Later on, the same shop took on a Bugatti Royale restoration, and then you saw what true attention to detail and craftsmanship was - a car designed to impress people who were used to the finest luxury. It's nice to see true craftsmen put their skills on display.

[@steveworth544]

Brilliant. Geoff's woodworking skills are something else. Chad is chilled out- I love that, Jolene's great camera work and infectious giggle- magical. The Jag engine? as long as those valves free up I reckon it will be fine after running for a bit. They will clean themselves up.

[@deanostevenson9238]

wow this car is going to be beautiful , people will eventually seethe finished car ,then want to go back and watch the whole build

[@philipmiller1030]

Hello from northern Ireland, another fantastic episode. Keep her lit 😀

[@rickeh100]

Perfection is an incurable disease that has no cure! Pride of craftsmanship is a very predictable side effect , Very well done you 3!

[@pyroboobysmith359]

Yes and that is what makes it harder to believe that he would not tear that engine down. You cannot ' fix ' worn out with your mind. New car should have new engine.

[@rickeh100]

pyrobooby smith I absolutely agree! Nothing in this shop should be second rate!

[@ronlynch7744]

Exact templates = perfect wood trim. Great work here! 😎👍🇨🇦

[@davidadams007]

The mahogany wood window trim is going to look amazing. I was looking at some photos of Bugatti Atlantic interior and it looks like they used many fasteners at each corner/bend, two fasteners per corner/bend. A good look was they they used mahogany plugs so no fasteners were visible. A REALLY nice look. Cheers

[@saulgoodman7509]

The car is coming to life and its looking beautiful. Nice work! Loving the videos.

[@markkurutz3544]

Dang I'm late ! No worries ill start it over ! Chad you are a great car builder ! That being said your talk with those folks was grrrrrrrrrrreat ! I'm 57 yrs old and I was reaffirmed of the right decisions are very important to us all. By the way myself and many more would have reacted the same way if someone was trespassing against us. My dad always said two wrongs don't make a right! He also taught us to protect and hold your own.

[@jeffreycrossin427]

Jeff from Jersey! Looking great! Another Jeff doing a fine job lol 👍

[@richardjennex6583]

The wood work Geoff does is beautiful

[@rogerpritchard]

It's all coming together now, looking stylish and watching everyday.

[@yvonboudreau3932]

Have you noticed how often Jolene laughs when Geoff and Doug are around You can tell Chad and Jolene like spending time with their new friends.

[@albertramirez797]

Would work is an art this guy knows what's up can't wait to see the interior

[@johnrowell942]

Great to watch and awesome woodwork skills.

[@JamesDavis-to1hn]

Jeff's work is awsome!

[@markcolejr5291]

Good job on the engine and the wood is looking awesome

[@annehiggins3559]

Looking good Jeff’s doing an awesome job

[@barry0517]

Doug is such a master craftsman. Still thinking of how to make that steering wheel modern in terms of adjustments. Isn’t there a bracket newer cars use? Addicted to this build. We are in suspense.

[@colinstables]

Velcro was a solid call or just adhesive, great progress on the motor, she will clean through no worries

[@shoominati23]

This guy should be a radio MC, seriously

[@leroyasher5641]

Jolene your rides lookin' good!

[@charlessanborn551]

The wood guy is amazing .and interesting to watch..

[@robertfrancis6757]

Weld a stud use acorn nut to hold rear window molding . looks awesome watch you everyday like the way you think. So you have a positive and productive day .Cheers 🤘

[@gerard394]

Excellent work from you all wood looking superb 👍

[@tomsnyder5324]

A suggestion on the wood dash. The mock-up shows about 3/4” protruding beyond the A pillar. By using a half round over edge on the top piece

[@michaelcramer4494]

Hi, which they are do not taken the doors out. Much better to get in and out and to work 😍

[@gemos46]

Enjoying the videos even more the closer to completion. :-)

[@jameswaite6496]

Great idea to make console wood to match window trim.

[@tomsawyer247]

Good show guys.

[@recruitmentwebsites]

Great show thanks

[@stanleymckinney9613]

Nice job 👍

[@nicholasjheinz7461]

That car would be a challenge for a senior to get in and out of. Glad I drive a Jeep!

[@deangaryjames]

Geoff is the best guy for the wood, very fussy

[@pablorivera6879]

The Bugatti is coming out beautiful.

[@richardjennex6583]

And to me the brass looks beautiful

[@martinlewis4968]

Four magnets Chad on the rear window surround s you can take them out and polish and put them back no screws

[@Jovial_1]

Woodpecker & festool …. The signs of a very particular craftsman.

[@damageincorporatedmetal43v73]

I think I'd center it from the edge of the to board, to the outer most edge of the horizontal board, Both for aesthetics and ensuring you don't take to much of. The thing about you mock up dash is that you can set it like a jig. The hole in the fire wall might end up being oval shaped but you can cover that up with a dust boot. I like watching your vid's there informative & they remind me of my old shop. Good luck & keep on rock'n it. By the way I forgot to tell you I'm enrolled as a Mic Mac Indian. Yeh, I know; as if that matters with what you're doing. But there are so many stereo type's about ... well you now, I don't like to dwell on the bad. I like to try to live the Good life; Peace...

[@jamesguthrie889]

Lookin Good Geoff

[@daracus1202]

The thing is if you move the column down it is going to make it harder to get in and out of, move the dash top up that amount so it will not be slopping down as much. Best wishes Chad

[@willyg6545]

If you don't want the screw heads showing, counter sink and cover them with wood plugs, just a thought!!!

[@c50ge]

Hello from Edwardsville, Illinois USA Could slightly countersink the hardware that holds the wood on and cap with ivory dot (like a guitar)

[@1otviii]

looking at the rear windows, how are you going to keep water out? Will the glass be flush with the skin?

[@johntripp5159]

21:42 UF109 can still be found in yacht builder's supply shops. By far the best glue for the purpose next to marine resourcinol.

[@DroTrebor]

Jeff is awesome!

[@SB-yq3sn]

I’m wondering if the gap from the top of the spare tire should be even to the wood window frames

[@SteveBueche1027]

Suggestion; the reveal on the back windows appears bulky compared to the doors. Maybe thin them equal or close to the door reveal and leave a gap between them for upholstery. It would finish off the classic look.

[@robertburton9725]

Add a cap of atf fluid down each spark plug hole. Works great if those rings are swelled up

[@alethacriss1528]

Will there be window glass or plexy glass windows.

[@paulm.8554]

Chad, you were pretty hilarious today. Thanks for the laugh :)

[@ricardojano3716]

Rear Window garnish moldings fastening options without screws - Locating studs on back of wood - Velcro - a Snap together male in to female fastener of some sort - Double face tape

[@AJ-dy8gj]

Agree keeps it clean look

[@chrismcdonald4748]

Everyone give him a big thumbs up. 👍👍👍deserves everyone he can get

[@bobbycampbell4446]

I have enjoyed the episode

[@irfanullahmaingal6910]

Good luck have a good day to all of you

[@tomsnyder5324]

Chad, on a future video, will you please tell us your plan for glass windows for the doors? Thank you.

[@blaisesudderth6711]

NO MUSIC - CLASS ACT FILMING - VERY PROFESSIONAL

[@leejuby8242]

Can you spring clip them from the back to flange around the window to eliminate the screws think they would look great without screws on the back window like door clips

[@sonnyfishel1235]

Can't wait for the end

[@campbelljohn]

get the seats made up,foamed covered etc ,locked in and happy ,then position your pedals ,once they are right work out your position for steering .

[@robertlindberg1886]

I think the dash, instead of being straight across the bottom edge, should have shallow sweeping curves on the driver and passenger sides. This would give a little more legroom and match the sweeping curves of the rest of the car. Just my 2 cents worth. I think your doing agreat job and really enjoy watching.

[@monadking2761]

I was wondering if you are going to tilt or use a telescoping column? It looks like the stearing wheel is big. I have an original wheel in my 55 chevy and realise it's not like my newer vehicle. Make sure when you turn the wheel does your elbow hit the side of the door because I have that problem sometimes driving my old car but, I'm 6'2". Try checking for clearance of you knuckles and clearance of your lap once sitting in the car. The attention is in the details and that car is coming along nicely.

[@davemoulding8799]

Side rear trim will good with brass ,if chad puts brass rivets in body fenders

[@dragontattooee]

Chad has boots on??? Enjoying the video

[@SteveBueche1027]

Cold bend wood would make the window chore very simple and easy. Look up Cold Bend Wood. It comes wet and pliable then dries into the shape just like putty.

[@moonpie2637]

Another great day in Chad's neighborhood. ✌️

[@blueovallife6868]

The best of the best.

[@faerieSAALE]

2nd place = Waa Hoo

[@matthewfocke5360]

A carved/contoured dash with an arched form above the column? Only a part of it would be fancy veneer on the flat parts? Can you picture it in your mind's eye? I was a woodcarver who had carved elaborate relief forms for sculptural furniture. I did it over twenty years ago. I gave it up to raise kids and make a living. I was working on an MFA in Fine Arts.

[@dalebruce8253]

Is that same motor in it for mock up? Or what’s the story on that one?

[@robertgembala8532]

Hello all from Indiana

[@johnm.washbush591]

And, another hello from Bloomington!

[@mikebunkerjr2707]

What about using embedded magnets?

[@SteveBueche1027]

I’m not getting notifications! Man that front end looks sweet!

[@drewdaskievige754]

Had watched a Dennis Gauge video where the guy put the wood trim on, by used magnets on the back side to hold the wood. No screw heads to be seen at all.

[@p3512at]

If the wheel ends up too low you can always shorten the column, that will raise the wheel back up.

[@stevewight1409]

It's tough to wait on a guy who won't give you the answer untill he's good and ready...lol...Chad is vibrating in his shoes trying to get his woodworking friend to spit out his plan.

[@jamesmcritchie8310]

Good call rivet spacing but Kevin part right but stainless steel reacts with normal metal as well but Nova Scotia is an Atlantic province how much salt is used on roads and in the breeze off the ocean.

[@jamesmcritchie8310]

Ps take the doors with you when you go won’t be much to takethem off and then the cords won’t be fought with and protecting the hinges works too it shorten buildtime drastically then the wood actually fit right too then. With all those compound angles in different places flat wood don’t quite fit

[@BARSOUTANDABOUT]

Awesomeness guys !

[@stewartlee8858]

Picture framer here, I'd notice the difference in those rear window timber frames

[@michaelkandel3179]

WY do the back window molding locks like they are thiffrent style? Is it the camera angel when you film inside.? Otherwise wery wery nice. This car gonna de amazing.

[@roywalter3691]

Make window frame small and bondo door to fit?

[@mikemetcalfe1526]

I think chad was right with using magnets or velcro for the rear wood window mouldings. That way they are easy to remove. Please put all steal around the gas tank, incase the tank catches fire or blows up

[@rogerfrancis65]

You'll never get correct and even compression by cutting corners and not removing the head, all the calves need grinding in and the stems polishing to remove the carbon and new valve stem seal's, this will bit you on the ass later.

[@brainpain4945]

i agree with ya Roger, but this engine doesn't have heads . The valves have to be worked on from the bottom of the engine up. It's really a big ole pain in the dootie, too.

[@kazykustumzllc]

Beautiful car

[@jimkuertz5501]

With your expertise you should just move the upper hose inlet up to clear the fan.

[@mikemetcalfe1526]

Or extend the upper hose inlet over the fan and flatten a little then round again

[@brdnsky6417]

Would it not be easier to soak that piece in water and get it pliable, then put it in the door and let it dry? You would get the shape that way. Why not do the screws like trim pieces on a car. Studs in the back only. Or you could cut pockets in the back and put magnets in it. The car is looking good.Ronnie.

[@richardhattan2588]

What about a dome light? Mounting

[@michaelcarmack4731]

Have you got the glass for the whole car

[@davemoulding8799]

That’s great but they fit to tight for the built up of primer and paint and not scratching surface during install

[@ashleyagombar521]

Does Jeff have an KZbin channel would like to see the wood working side to this amazing vehicle

[@gwebster3500]

I dont have a YT channel. If I recorded my woodworking, it would put everyone to sleep and over flow KZbin's hard drvies

[@kingearl2596]

Mahogany? What a strange and rare sort of wood :-)
