Brazing is easy, we learned how to do it in secondary school metalwork classes. All you need is an oxy welding torch and the materials and a bit of practice and you'll pick it up in no time. A quick search revealed that there are multiple tutorials on KZbin to get you started. The main thing is controlling the heat. Just practice on some scrap first and you'll master it in a few minutes. I've never TIG welded, just watched videos on it and I know you can TIG weld, so you'll find brazing so much easier.

Getting closer and closer each vid Dave proud of you no one will have anything quite like this beast .

[@MrPape39]

Coulda sworn I seen a orange one. A year ago

[@smavtmb2196]

@@MrPape39 You probably saw a modified magnum. He started with a charger not a magnum. Bolting on a few parts to an old magnum isn't the same thing as hand building a complete vehicle from top to bottom. The car is a combination of multiple vehicles and hand made one off parts.

[@johnhinz1173]

Brazing is easy Dave, it’s easier than welding. You can do it!

[@troydority265]

You can go to local plumbing businesses for the brazing of that oil pick up I think. Or a radiator service shop.

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

Once again crazy to see the lengths you are going to to make this work. From determining the steering issues to changing the components of the stub shaft and making it work is no easy task.

[@simscoordinator]

Your attention to detail is incredible. Awesome job. God bless

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Thanks

[@NathansMoparGarage]

Getting much closer now the sub frame looks great.

So crazy how far your came with this build Dave I feel like this should be a tv show

[@Junkyard_Dave]

That would be cool

I'm so excited for this build Dave been a longtime viewer and love all these projects and also probably the only KZbinr I watch that I would love to hang with and just talk about builds

Thanks

Slowly but surely. Looking great!

With as talented as this dude is he would pick up brazing in no time at all

Coming together piece by piece.

Masterful build, love every step of it. Thanks for being you Dave.

Sub frame looks great. I have been watching you build this since you started it a lot of work has gone in to it and it shows.

Thanks

[@jamiedriscoll9781]

I love your "yeah, no" moments. 7:00 "people told me this isn't going to work. Ehhh...I know this is going to work"

You are very good at working out these problems. Some big auto company would love to have you on board.

It would be nice to have an engineering job again, and I have always been good at figuring stuff out.

Pretty slick job on the steering box! Looks great, thanks for the update!

brazing isn't hard, you could do it. I done it with my torch and brass rod with flux coated

Mad skills Dave. Thank you for posting.

[@bigsquatchsasfoot1964]

Subframe looks amazing dude impressive well done a real achievement and of course totally your custom design and build..nice 👍

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Both of them were a pain but they look great

[@zehlersan]

This build is coming together nicely. I think it would be a good idea to wear something to protect your lungs from the microplastics next time when powdercoating. ✌

[@TheKirkbrown]

Yes,

Great stuff as always

You should learn to braze, it's not that difficult, it's a good skill to add, and very economical. If you have an oxy acetylene cutting torch, all you need is a brazing tip, rods & resin, it's kind of like soldering with a torch. Before mig welders were common, that's what we used in body shops for sheet metal work. I brazed until I finally broke down and got a mig in the mid 80's, and still used it off and on for many years after that. Lead is kinda fun to work with too 😁

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Y3ah I need to learn how to do it

[@owenjohnson3985]

Awesome video great job

A perfect job takes a little longer 👍🏻🤣

I truly can’t wait for it to start Iam gonna send u a case of good cigars to light in celebration been a hell of a journey almost at the final stretch

We almost there 🔥

Wow, Great stuff!

[@patrickmoodabe9728]

Super awesome Dave!!🙌

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Thanks

[@kentmckean6795]

If you have an oxy/acetylene setup, you can braze. It is just like soldering, except with a higher temp and brazing rod instead of solder.

[@Junkyard_Dave]

Yeah I need to get one

[@cianomar2144]

Dave i can't wait to see you finish the car 🥳

If your going to cut the harness order a replacement now so that in a year when the Durango is done you'll hopefully have it.

Yeah

Hi guy, I'm the Ft. Collins Gun Room. I'd love to see this, if you ever bring it up here to show it off PLEASE stop by. Mulberry & Air Park Drive

I'll be driving it everywhere so I'll be in Denver a bit with it

Awesome

[@tonyclark4289]

If your not keeping that engine in the charger, don't cut/shorten the harness just snake it out the way

[@waltermccraw8855]

Looks amazing not much of a station wagon guy but I'm invested been watching since the beginning of this build and every step looks better and better you do great work Dave can't wait to see it ripping around also guess I missed the episode but are you having the rampage emblems made for the charger either way looks great 👍👍

8 plan on making some

have hayden fusion weld the screen on with the tig?

Brazing welding? You could of took the oil pan pick up to a radiator shop to do the braze welding if there is a radiator shop near you. They do braze weld repairs on ratiators.
