Did I Make A Huge Mistake Restoring This Classic Muscle Car? Plymouth Sport Satellite Part 9

[@wayneneher6362]

Jared, no, you did NOT make a mistake. Financially? Maybe. But aesthetically? HELL NO. Passion projects like this are NEVER a mistake.

[@danatkinson6698]

Can't be said any better.

Can't agree more, the lifeblood of the car community is the drive to restore, resurrect, rebuild the cars YOU find significant. I'm literally oogling a Lada Niva cuz I think they are neat. Who does that?!?

[@joshm3875]

Jared, there are some expanding closed cell urethane foams used in the collision industry that are for exactly what you're looking to do between the roof skin and supports, 2 parts that apply with a caulking type gun and a mixing tip. 3m 8463 comes to mind but many make similar products. Pump it in there, it will expand and adhere between the layers and offer some support. Great work on this! Replacing any of those panels you've done is a big job. Once you do things like removing the package tray it turns into a whole different level. Excellent work in planning ahead to keep everything as straight and square as these old cars can be. My compliments on a very difficult and complex job.

[@richardmclaughlin362]

Jared your the only Expensive Tool we need. 😂

[@goorgert1364]

Jared, they say misery loves company. All us car guys go through a bit of suffering doing what we love best, and watching you restore your dream car slowly and with great effort surely goes down like a fine wine. I notice that even though you have a full program already, you still make time for your favourite project. If that doesn't help to motivate us, nothing will. Keep it up, buddy. You are making good progress!

It is really inspiring to see metal work done right. I usually patch(thats how i was tought) and bondo on top.. but this gives me confidencw to try a quarter panel change rather than my old method. Plus that car is now better than new😅

Looks great, fun learning new skills 👍 I learned on a home improvement project how to do skip trowel texture. Matching the existing wall texture is a little frustrating but hey good enough...I have a little blending to do but hey the 1970 wall paneling is gone. 😮 Welcome to the 21st century.

[@Greg383BB]

Man, you are doing a great job. You did not make a mistake. It’s a labor of love keep grinding.

[@briandering4182]

Jared...One more comment; For the roof panel, since it will expand and contract considerably in changing temperature as opposed to the roof ribs, you may want to consider a 'sealant' that will stay flexible. Modern panel bond will not do well. We used to use windshield sealant for the rib to roof panel adhesive (it used to be butyl but, I don't know if you can get that anymore). This would affix the panel to the ribs but, still remain flexible (like the windshield glass Vs. metal frame expansion and contraction as different rates). Just a thought. Otherwise silicone ADHESIVE would also be an option but I would go with the windshield adhesive. You may still be able to find it at a local NAPA store. The tube will fit a standard caulk gun. Good luck and thank you for your efforts to restore this classic MOPAR!

[@fredericrike5974]

All props to Dwayne! Jared, as you know, trying to build a car from a pile of rusty parts, half of which have become "one with corrosion" is a bit of a chaotic experience. Dwayne manages to capture the chaos as well as keep the story line moving forward- so, well earned ! I don't think you give the condition of your shop enough credit- the perpetual mess looks exactly like my home shop always did when any work was being done. I think Tavarish has discovered that as well- either he is spending more time on the road of late or less time cleaning up last months debris than last year.

[@robh4822]

“Fifth most on fire I’ve ever been” made me lol.

[@kickasspowdercoating]

It’s looking good Mr.body guy 👊🏻👨‍🔧

[@hayneshvac2]

Look at the bright side Jared, at least in the end you will know exactly what you have. Just think, if you were to buy one already restored, who knows what shortcuts would have been taken, and what surprises would have awaited you. I once bought a beautiful 84 D150 for a couple grand thinking I got a great deal. It always felt strange while driving though. I could feel the odd weight imbalance in the truck. After the accident destroying the truck, I learned that I wasn't at that much of a loss. Both bedsides front to back were nearly 1/2-inch Bondo on the driver's side, and 3/16 on the passenger side. The car is looking amazing, and I think when you're done, you will be over the moon. Great video, thank you for sharing.

[@larrylong6268]

One thing for sure when you finish that car it will be yours forevermore.

[@JRs-Garage]

A win is a win 🥇 I’m so happy you’re doing all this to your car ! And I agree with you about cleco’s they have their place but fitting these type of panels is not what they work best on from my experience either! Great work Jared👍🏻 Get yourself a m12 Milwaukee band file you won’t regret it for this type of fabrication,And rust repair and purple 3m belts!

[@gregedmand9939]

Clecos were designed by the aircraft industry, primarily for joining aluminum together, to align everything for riveting. Their intended use is for tight tolerance alignment, not a strong bond that you can push and shove against. Force fitting steel body panels, built to very loose tolerance like Jared is using, requires a much tighter bond like a screw or temporary spot weld.

[@rexkean]

Roof looks awesome! The A pillar support... don't over think it, just patch it!

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

I’m actually looking forward to just a few patches. Then onto the floors, and then final metal work and then body… then paint.

[@countswing284]

The simple answer is no, you did not make a mistake. You're doing an awesome job and it's going to take longer than you anticipated. A little more time, a little more money and a lot more welding.

Smarter Mopar people call the hole in the A-pillar the"A-hole". It is a critical component in the ventilation of gases.

[@warderkeeju]

I'd bet its the face sensor on the phone triggering the welding helmet tint -- some phones use a proximity sensor, others fire a quick burst of infrared light and has a light sensor that senses light reflecting off your face to turn off the display.

[@mooselake4848]

Your work has truly inspired me to never get into old MOPARS.

[@DaBomm4]

Jared, at 18:00 I have an idea, the camera might be using infrared sensors for the auto focus and it's triggering the auto darkening on the welding hood.

[@thecman26]

The thing with the mask, your camera probably uses an ir signal for the auto focus and the mask probably picks that up and thinks you're welding. Just a guess.
