[@martinfowler6512]

This episode reminded me of how it was when I was building cars. 2 guys in the back yard working some, drinking some, talking some. And BS alot.

[@i8ntnuts]

Having a dedicated camera woman sets this show apart from many others. Always at the right place at the right time. Close up or far away, Jolene brings the show to life. It is as if we were there.

[@darrelldunaway928]

Reading Jim’s facial expressions during thought “that sh_t ain’t gonna work”, Chad “looks good huh Jimbo”. This is the best channel ever, give Jim a sander and put him to work! Love that guy!

[@1944chevytruck]

AWESOME JOB!,,, CAN HARDLY WAIT TO SEE THIS PUPPY ROLL!... thanks 4 video. be kind.

[@markmarotti3623]

nothing better than two car guys hashing out a car build and all the great rides of the past. The down to earth hands on car guys professional or hobby level friendships are the best part of the classic car/ hot rod world

[@michaeldinardo1883]

This is the first reality show that is reality!!! Very well done thx Jolene & Chad

[@timedge4958]

It’s a amazing piece and all of it will look beautiful. Jimbo is giving some good knowledge for the build also. Chad and Jolene are great to watch and learn from.

[@kevinmcleod3741]

Look any time you get FREE advice its priceless ! I've learned a lot so far a n d and still learning . Thumbs-up Jolene 👍and 👍Chad

[@martyndunstan8286]

It’s always good when Jim turns up 😄

[@DavidBrown-mn3iy]

It's always a good day when Bad Chad's KZbin video begins with Jim in the shot!!!

[@TheRichyrich1966]

Great work on the chassis, nicely raised at the front. Can't wait to see the body sat on it.

[@tonymosca6591]

Interesting that you and Mike from This Old Hotrod are doing parallel projects for same race!

[@davemoulding8799]

Mike from this old hot rod called chad out to build one

[@alancroft4231]

Great to see Jim there, makes it more exciting,

[@garygallagher7557]

Weld a top plate to all the gussits and weld the plate all around its edges. The top plate needs to be made up of 3 pieces so each gusset is welded to the top plate. The top plate will stop the gusset from buckling and collapsing

[@DroTrebor]

I love to hear the two of you discussing how welding works best for you.

[@stevejakobs476]

Great camera work, that's what makes it.

[@KevinCoop1]

The radiator hose kept the tube from coming out of the frame. Just my opinion. When I was in structural drafting the engineers taught me that a triangle is the absolute strongest shape there is. So, the original connection of the wishbones made a triangle and you changed to a rectangle. Most likely strong enough, but not as strong as it was.

[@chadh7613]

Great to hear Chad and Jim banter, and solve problems on the fly.

[@i8ntnuts]

Jim needs a “Jolene “. It would be fun to watch Jim after watching Chad. Maybe Jolene knows somebody? I don’t know if Jim would go for something like that, but it’s a fun thought

[@66belairss]

Fun to watch and I always learn something new. I try to learn something new every day

[@geoffreylummis2206]

Two blokes yarning about welding...cars and stuff... as good as it gets! 👍🌏🇦🇺🐨🍻

[@DefaultName-vh3lo]

I love Jim's insight... he is a natural mechanical engineer. One of those men you can learn a great deal from. Chad is fortunate to have him as a friend.

[@Dagrond]

Love it. Wish I was born in another time with mentors like these. Would have lived a different life.

[@ricklucero8878]

You can tell the loyal followers even with the sound not working we still watch on woo woo 😎

[@jimcoplan9502]

Pinching the frame rails went well. Chad continues to prepare for mounting the body. Jolene is right there with her excellent camera work. This is a fun project to watch come together.

[@raybedell6031]

Love how you working man you keep me motivated keep me wanting to keep working on my vehicles

[@TheKustomBeardoh]

Plugging along pretty well! Great work as always

[@shotgun283]

Best part about cars is drinking beer with your mates and talking cars 🇦🇺

[@apx36]

We’re in for another great episode as usual! Jim has got to leave Chad working lol. He’s probably retired and was looking for someone to talk to and Chad likes to talk as well so they make a great pair

[@kevinmcleod3741]

When it comes to building cars I don't have much experience . This show really helps and I hope it's helping you ! Thumbs-up guys and what a 👍 build !

[@donaldshortreed3011]

Great work yesterday, Chad. Pinching the frame rails went well. Can’t wait to seeing the test runs.

[@donaldshortreed3011]

@@matthewoneill3229 Sorry, you feel that way, Matthew. This was not something that Chad does everyday. He has to analyze the situation and come up with what will work. If it doesn’t work the first time, he must try something else. And remember he is under a lot of pressure being on camera with thousands watching. That’s why I commented the way I did.

[@donaldshortreed3011]

@@matthewoneill3229 Hi Matthew, your points are well taken. Cheers.

[@TheOldaz1]

Good to see, Chad and Jim having fun together. Made it difficult for Jolene to keep up, lol.

[@gordandcolleenkerr7760]

Chad made it look so easy altering the Hup chassis , this will be the best gasser at the races

[@i8ntnuts]

4000 hp would change Chad‘s life forever. The Hup six is perfect! Great fun. And with Jolene in the driver seat it will be hard for Chad to get any attention for himself

[@mariamaniscalco7413]

i wish i had jim and chad for neighbors! two interesting and knolageable old school guys. i have a 72 chevelle im working on.

[@ka4hpy]

Love hearing Jim's wisdom and welding discussion with Chad

[@cristianabarsuglia629]

How did you hear it? Do you read lips?

[@christinebornstein8239]

Hello to you both! Looks like you have some new ideas for the hot rod. Keep up the creativity! Great job!!!

[@tonyhardin3599]

Great listening to Jim and yourself talking about the build

[@charlielemmons5525]

Nice job on the frame. Only problem I saw was the strap should have been released before you did the relief cuts. Great job so far. Jolene still continues to do fabulous film work. 🎥

[@alfredofrancelinodesouzafi3637]

this model will look spectacular. Brazil.

[@billphillips4110]

Jim is really laid back Another day of learning from all of you guys

[@justanonymous8858]

I enjoy Jims vists. He is a good friend to you and that is worth more than you even know. The car is coming together. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@timlewis9963]

Chad did you allow for the thickness of the body to fit frame?

[@johnnyjayy14]

We need more behind the scenes Chad, especially with Jim around telling his wisdom and stories

[@neilbrown3556]

Fun to watch and I always learn something new

[@ShowPhil]

Keep up the great work Chad!!!!!!! I'm always learning something new watching your videos!

[@timhanson2080]

Looking great. I think the way the front is much stronger and safer. Nice work 👍

[@mattcasoni]

This is one epic project. No fear whatsoever just a guy and a gal enjoying life. Awesome 👏

[@vwcoco]

Love this Race car and you’re enthusiasm is there to see , thanks Jolene and nice seeing Jim , hi Fina

[@marcbaker2502]

I would really love to see a car that both Chad and Jim design and build together (with both on the tools side by side) Two great minds in collaboration with seriously great ideas, knowledge and discussions

[@robertdehaes9329]

I am enjoying the build and the chat, Whole thing is an educational experience.

[@joebourque4860]

Looking good chad well done. Thanks for the video Jolene 👍👍👍

[@baldanddangerous1572]

cant wait to see this bad boy in action

[@elvisshotrods6094]

Looking good Chad ! just gave me some ideas for my project truck

[@DroTrebor]

Always great to have Jim in the house!

[@TheSkinking]

You are kind of like me, love starting new projects. Finishing them ehhhhh...... I will get to it........ eventually.

[@johnstewart9396]

Is this what you call Hupping a Ford, or is it Fording a Hup? Way too much fun! Chad’s the best on KZbin.

[@XCHANGEDAVE]

The Hupmobile lineup for 1935 powered by a six-cylinder engine delivering 91 horsepower. Nice to see Jim!

[@craighagland3584]

Jim is so philosophical when speaks! 😂

[@Op1zilla]

Heck it's already a cool car, Lets gooooooo, ggz

[@azteclxix]

Chad .... throw all your hats in the wash...comes with the territory....hard working man... keep up the Great Content

[@cathyandgreg4239]

Jolene, what a great episode. Behind the scenes, the real deal. 2 valley boys having fun with cars.

[@doublesawbuck]

When there's days I can't do it, I think of you Chad. Stay strong. I love you man. I'll keep doin it if you keep doin it. 😆👍❤

[@doublesawbuck]

It's refreshing for you to finally have a bad day lol. We all have em

[@ronaldschmuck3901]

The meeting of the minds lol,Jim knows his Business, Have a blessed day,God bless.

[@billgroel4463]

Good to see Jim.Your doing a fine job thank you for sharing

[@yt66228]

Its always good to have Jim around to give some ideas!

[@jamesclark1131]

Great work as usual gonna be a great old school racer 👍

[@djh254]

You remind me of me. Mind goes 100 mph with 5 projects at once. But they all get done. Look fwd to all your builds!!!

[@ronnieprevatt4804]

Great Channel with Great Folks

[@elizabethrebrook6386]

Love the gasser stance!

[@ronlynch7744]

Good one with Jimbo rolling his smokes & Chad relaxing with a drink. Jolene does the camera coverage. 😎👍🇨🇦

[@millboss1372]

Ol Jim's got some great thoughts!

[@hitnmiss49]

Can't wait to see you hauling this to the race track.

[@leosimon9463]

Great seeing you and Jim just chilling out and doing something that makes you happy. You were relaxing and not getting in a hurry for the camera 🎥 . Thanks for sharing your time with us again.😁

[@josephbert1]

Some good cutting, welding, & grinding. Love it.

[@marksheyworth7888]

Everything going great so far can't wait to see it race

[@davidtutor6763]

Love watching and learning. Thanks for the hard work you two

[@jimwhittemore1610]

Howdy, see Jim is there today. Plasma cutter is quite a tool. Thanks again for your program

[@alexbetteridge8200]

Great to have a friend like Jim….loads of extra free knowledge. Fantastic watch….so real.

Can't wait to see it all together!!🤘🤘🤘

Well looks like Jim makes the perfect race car pit crew boss .... lol

[@rickdarr5323]

It's always good to see Jim

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Great vid...................... 👍👍👍

[@regharnish202]

Nice to see Jim again !

[@docdetroit146]

I like seeing the different artistic ideas

[@jerrybaldwin6955]

Heavier flat steel in that blue barrel for gussets.

[@snekmeseht]

At 11 minutes, Jim pointed out the need for wider bracing to manage the torque coming from the wheels. I'm relieved.

[@snekmeseht]

The wider the better.

[@brycechessum4684]

Jim slows Chad down sure but the two of them bouncing ideas off each other is priceless.

[@David_Stee]

another great video, always good to see Jim!

[@i8ntnuts]

You bring a lot of joy to a lot of people Chad. True!

[@edreeder9853]

It would be a blast just to ride that chassis around the field...

[@salamander5703]

Jim's absolutely right to look at the loads each wheel can put on that transverse spring. Look at the size of the cross member it was originally fitted with and you get an idea of how strong your bracket needs to be. .

[@jjsmith2789]

Triangle gussets are strong in tension but when placed in compression like you are doing they will buckle. You need to put a plate across the tops of them to make them strong.

[@gb7156]

I like Chad not scurrying around and not repeating himself much better.

[@rcbodyshopfr]

Fun day working under the sun with friend. Imo the support you made to replace the crossmember is really narrow as Jim says, I don't know how it could not twist... But we'll see later! Can always fix it! 😁

[@timedge4958]

Great idea on the gussets looks nice and rat roddish

[@ionedave]

Good to see Jim put some input on the front end, very knowledgeable.

[@muzzasmsmadness1081]

And here in New Zealand ..... IT"S FRIDAY !!!!

[@jimberry1227]

Coming together right in front of our eyes.

[@benjiehoffard9323]

Good to see Jim he's great people

[@crittercraig9445]

Great job everyone Do like bouncing ideas off of friends to see another view and thought. Always better 2 brains than 1. Even if you decide not to use it. Hope you have a great evening.
