BUGATTI UPDATE: REMOVING THE OTHER FENDER SKIRT

[@grock85]

Drill a bunch of small holes from the inside, then connect the dots with a sharpie and the cut it from the out in one continuous line with a grinder, would be much easier and would yield a near finished result... the drill size size should be small to minimize any blowout. No sparkles in your face, your not lying on your back, and your not struggling to find your line. Your doing an awesome job regardless! Thanks for sharing!

[@JustinPaul1st]

Nice idea but we still gotta cut the washer spacers as well remember but good point👍👍👍

[@danobrien3109]

Hello Chad. Been watching your videos for the last little bit. Your a treat to watch, love your honesty and your unpretentious nature. We have a daughter who bought a home in Nova Scotia. She, her daughters and my wife spend the summers there and I come down for a month each summer. We love the people of your province. All we have met share your same personality and the honesty is so refreshing. We were in the bubble this past summer. We did our 14 day isolation and didn’t leave our property during that time. The town grocery store dropped off our groceries on the back porch, the restaurant delivered food to the house. We did some renovations while we quarantined. Salt of the earth people, love them. Now for the build. It is beautiful. It is going to be wonderful when it’s done. Your correct about the tires. They look great. Your lady is going to love that beauty. Great work, keep it up.

[@1963impala2drWaylonWire]

ive said it before but I'll say it again. Jolene does excellent work with the camera. she always captures every aspect of the process.. you guys rock!

[@dennisblain7039]

Jolene , Your camera work is great! It's so smooth and you get all the shots to show us up close as to what's happening! THANKS!

[@rowycoracing]

What I like most about watching this series is that you are just plain happy doing what you are doing. Good for you!

[@dennymarreesr6187]

Jolene, you have exceptional camera skills! Keep up the great builds Chad!

[@jasonwestmoreland7632]

Great concept on how to do it. When time is key simplifying a process is the best option. You have made me re thing how I do work on my cars not just body work. Thanks !!!

[@jimmypopp2695]

Excellent description of how you made those fender skirts. Just beautiful!

[@GreggFesto]

Another bad ass episode!! Thank you very much Chad and Jolene for sharing these builds with us here on KZbin. You two ROCK!

[@docb.9908]

That's such a scary proposition cutting into such a well made quarter panel. Nicely done as always, Chad. You too, Jolene. Nice camera work.

[@robertbaker894]

Very Best Chad. Love the work you two are doing. Can't wait to see it all come together.

[@stevesteel7372]

It would be nice to see a timeline photo presentation. Just to recap the road you have travelled on this build day one images to where we are today?

[@richardellison536]

Nice job Chad. Enjoying your process. Definitely an art to making the work look so easy. Love the daily posts, gives a real sense of how the project is going without having to see every detail. I am jealous of Jolene getting such an awesome ride. Love to do a build when my Lotto Max ticket pays off! Lol

[@steadyshakey6599]

The video quality has become excellent. Great camera angles and the sound is perfect. The content is also very interesting.

[@dylancress1016]

Eyes and ears is a pleasure to see you wearing them you'll be in the business a lot longer.

[@carlogic1960]

Earmuffs just for decoration Chad. Love your work man. That's two positive comments in one!

[@sashas8168]

what a beautiful car its going to be, well done Chad on your vision and ability to make it into reality. Joelene the camera work is exceptional.

[@gerard394]

Excellent seen you cut out Jaguar from wheels your doing a fantastic job 👍👍👍 glad you yous a mask

[@chrismcdonald4748]

Man that’s such a sexy car. Looks amazing with the skirts. Just keeps getting more and more Beautiful

[@chargers1fan]

jolene you have the sweetest voice

[@chrispelloni1283]

I love the round rod for creating the seam from skirt to panel!!

[@LuisRamirez-ts3rp]

U the man Chad think it over before you send it🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏽

[@dannystubblefield5478]

Glad to see you wearing a mask to keep the dust out of your lungs. You are a great talent and need to hang around for a while.

[@kevinhall3443]

Your Skirt technic works awesome.

[@berndt-joachimmerkt9967]

Young are a genius .. wonderful cars you build 👍👍

[@JustinPaul1st]

Been following long enough to know ...space permitting you need a car hoist for projects like these ...easier safer neater to work and I'm sure we be getting even more better camera visuals...but Joelene doing wonderful job....nice to see some emphasis on PPE👍👍👍🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@jazzskeet8738]

Loving every video Chad anticipations killing me but I know it's going to be worth it when this one's done

[@StefanMiniCooper]

Looks good Chad! But please think at 9:54 about your fingers that close to that grinder 🙃!

[@freddiebates5539]

The grinder is working if the blade doesn't come apart and cut your throat. I think I would have used a jig saw with a diamond cutting metal blade. The car looks good keep the videos coming Chad !

[@TheFastStang]

9:54 - that is one hell of a dangerous position for your fingers, especially while cuttin in between those rods where the grinder can flip out or get stuck easily!!!

[@annehiggins3559]

Another nice job thanks for sharing looking good

[@Platinumconcrete]

Healthy lookn blue cattle dog,the cars coming along good Chad👍

[@ronlynch7744]

Cool one. Tires & rims will complement the car to the max. 😎👍

[@biglakehotrods381]

Looking good. Those wheels and tires are gonna really set it off. Nice choice!

[@curtismagas9343]

Audio is so much better...Thank You :)

[@56ratbug]

Good progress, coming along nicely

[@irritablearchitect]

That hearing protection works a whole lot better when you put them on your ears, Chad.

[@howquick]

Hahaha.....I’ve done the same.

[@jimtaylor8168]

You are a bad ass builder man love your work

[@jesusgoncalvez8543]

Que ganas de verlo en marcha. Saludos de España

[@rickeh100]

Thumbs up for Jolene he is wearing PPE

[@chrissandberg8856]

Glad to see Chad wearing PPE now you need to get him to use it the correct way Jolene do he'll be around for you. Lots of close calls. Jolene you and Chad are the best. TX Mr dixit.👍

[@gallantservices8327]

very nice job on the port side fender skirt

[@TheInsaneShecklador]

19:47 Aren't those some pretty heavy sand scratches to be priming over?

[@harveypyke4897]

Something else to cross of the list. Great job.

[@delorean-mm6sk]

you've got some serious talent buddy! keep it up!

[@JonDingle]

A quicker and easier way to cut the fender skirt free would be to use what we in the UK call a Jigsaw. Use a fine metal cutting blade and away you go. Because the blade reciprocates and is both thin and narrow it will cut cleanly, less dust, no sparks and follow the contour of the fender skirt very easily. Bosch, Fein, Makita and Metabo make them and plenty of other manufacturers too.

[@TheInsaneShecklador]

He tried using his pneumatic saw on the right side skirt but the reciprocating action caused the body filler to chip.

[@mikemetcalfe1526]

He didn't have the guide on the air reciprocating saw. That holds the tool to the cutting surface making the cutting more stable and smooth when cutting. A wood/steel blade with bigger teeth would have worked great

[@JonDingle]

@@mikemetcalfe1526 A steel blade on a jigsaw has fine teeth. And maybe scribe the fender skirt joint on the outside so working on a flat surface in a better position would an advantage too.

[@JonDingle]

@@TheInsaneShecklador Pushing too hard perhaps? An interesting task to overcome

[@mikemetcalfe1526]

@@JonDingle why use a steel blade...unless you want to cut threw the steel fender. For example, a drywall person uses a cutting-edge for drywall when cutting around a electrical box. So he doesn't cut into the steel receptacle box and cut the wires. Plus have you ever used a hacksaw blade to cut wood... The teeth are too small to cut fiberglass and polyester filler efficiently.

[@chrismcdonald4748]

Another great video from Chad and jolene

[@BrandonSEverything]

I give you credit your very consistent with the videos. Keep up the Great Work.

[@buffdelcampo]

Very good! Thank you both again!

[@johnrowell942]

Motor looks stunning

[@luigi1649]

Wise words at the end...👍👍👍😉

[@BubbaAyers1969]

That Chad getting it done.. keep up the good work 🤠

[@leandrolambardi9712]

One of the best channels, too bad you guys don't pay attention to the fans who comment on your videos. So distant. I guess I need a hug or something.

[@paulmyfinger8272]

I'm not sure that your doing the ear protection thing right🤔

[@liamw2334]

Absolutely love everything you do as a fabricator, you sir have such a great talent, I love seeing your dreams come to reality I love tagging along with you my dream would be to do what you do but I hace ill health, that makes it hard to get out of bed some mornings aha love your videos

[@richardbrowne1217]

That cut off better than the right side. Gimmie more news! 😁👍

[@jamesrobinson9062]

Got to love chad enthusiasm

[@howquick]

Good on you Chad. You guys are very much like us Aussies....do as we’re ‘asked’ and have ZERO cases of Covid now 👍

[@bobmccann1886]

I like the plan you have to take off the fender wheel covers as few times as possible. Can you use another type of material between the rods? Instead of a metal washer and the filler, how about plastic spacers or fiber spacers. Maybe broken bits of a cut off wheel maybe better suited as your spacers? Or thick cardboard? Or maybe little wood wedges? Keep up the great work.

[@eduardodominguez8384]

Nice Job Brother.

[@robertgembala8532]

Indiana in the house !

[@clemsilvernail1274]

You should have a multi-tool for things like this

[@JonDingle]

A jigsaw is the way to do it.

[@johnshowcarbuildershowcarb6217]

What I have done in the past you would take clear box tape and put it on the inside of the fender Edge so the Bondo doesn't stick to the car body and then you could unbolt Fender skirt and it would pull right off of the tape and then you could send it back how you wanted it to look I've done this before on a Formula Ford race car body were the top of the body fit along the side of the car fits the bottom of the shell meets the top of the shell and to get full surfaces to match each other I made one surface first put the tape on it clear box tape and then put the other part of the body on it smeared fiberglass resin in between the two body half and they match perfectly

[@andyfunke9484]

Another episode closer to putting the "Bugatti Jolene" on the road. 👍

[@robertgibson88]

I would take a drill from the back side ,and drill holes so you can make a pattern to follow on the outside . So you can cut it from the outside which will be much easier than from underneath.

[@ocrams12]

9:53 I was afraid for his fingers !

[@jodycopeland1]

You are a artist

[@franka2507]

Forget the rest... we will see the best !!!

[@joeandreas7985]

Keep building!

[@leemnav]

Can you do a small video on how you fixed the chrome wheel hub to the steel rim please ?

[@gerard394]

Looking forward to this 👍👍👍👍👍 crazy can’t get enough of this show

[@7s29]

This car will be worth a pretty penny when finished.

[@michaelmarrett6423]

You do amazing work! Love the videos! I have a suggestion out of concern for your welfare, and I hope you understand where I'm coming from when I say this, but I couldn't help but notice that you normally don't bother wearing ear muffs or ear plugs. There was a time when I didn't either. However, several years ago, my wife and I took in my granddad when he was no longer able to live by himself, and I remember how much it bothered him that he couldn't follow and participate much in our conversations around the dinner table and such due to the fact that his hearing was almost completely gone. Back in his day, hearing protection and things like that just weren't really emphasized like they are today, and he just didn't usually bother with ear plugs when working on cars and around heavy equipment and such. In his younger days he was the life of the party, always telling jokes and he loved talking to people. But as he got older, and all the hearing damage had progressed, he started to feel more and more like an outsider because he just simply couldn't hear what was going on anymore. It was so sad to see the regrets he had, that he had not protected his hearing. Hope I don't sound like an old nag. God bless, and keep up the good work!

[@bryanbushby2754]

Good news . I think I can do that thanks 🙏

[@Op1zilla]

Air con and a heater, an I'd travel n that beast, 💘

[@pate5827]

Doing that cutting with a grinder and that saw are u worried about the metal getting hot and the filler not being stuck all the way around

[@leesmith2162]

Wounder I if the di-grinder disk would have made it little easier around the brackets where they are much smaller then the 4 1/2 ?

[@The428cobra]

It is a very good way to do it

[@robertafay9198]

Are you going to put stainless trim on side of car and on fender skirts.

[@randymcqueen3030]

Put tape along seam cutting.filler wont chip out.will cut nicer,less finish work to repair.

[@snoopu2601]

I have this tool made by Dremel 4,000 it's like a Swiss army knife for a tool that has different connections. It reminds me of one of those Doctor's tool's they would use to take casts of your arm or leg, any how this tool cuts a lot of stuff without doing much damage to anything. I was thinking it would have been great for cutting trough the filler and you would use the grinding for cutting off the bolts. Anyhow you got the job done with what you have. Check into that tool maybe for another job that would make it go faster with less clean up work. ✌🏽

[@jonbarc4489]

Can he not use the red bed trolley bed to lay on to support his neck?

[@Omegaman1969]

Great camera work, so smooth and clear. What kind of camera are you using Jolene?

[@AlchemyMelbourne]

Bad Chad is the real deal! 24:56

[@donaldwunder1453]

Great job love to watch you an jolean

[@barry0517]

It appears on the 1936 there are front fender lights. I hope you have a more modern custom approach to that. Maybe flush mounted into the sleek fenders. You comments please Chad.

[@jtscott2472]

Can I get my scalpel, I mean my grinder? Awesome work!

[@gregtrosper4293]

Do you have Bugatti emblems to cover the Jag emblems on the wheel covers? Peace from Nebraska USA.

[@MrLarsgren]

hi chad. i wonder where youre originally from due to the way you say carrrr. also is that a old suzuki K model parked behind ? dont see those often anymore

[@Zanehoward88]

I seriously think a Sheetrock hand saw would work better. Well never know though cause now it’s done. I love the skirts by the way

[@johnjason7204]

chad, I watched the wooden dash for your build very interesting. For your 40 build would you take a minute and look at HYDRO DIPPING DASHBOARDS on KZbin. I think your coupe would look fantastic with a Burl dash... Hydro Dipping uses many different design formats. Like the work you and your girl both do.....

Is there going to be a season 3 of bad chad customs?

[@davidroberts283]

Covering your mixing board with masking paper each time you mix eliminates fighting chunks in your new putty, also, it makes the mixing process better because it give you a clean, smooth, flat surface to mix on, which even gives you a more thorough, complete mix. In the long run, its faster. Then there is no clean-up. You just peel the paper, and toss it. For heavens sake, try it for a week, you will never go back.
