[@duaneayers6117]

Ian, would you show the viewers an older picture of yourself with a full set of hair on your head ? I'm always watching thanks

[@darrenbrisson4336]

Love the show Ian but I like it better when you collaborate with Victor why aren't you staying on the caddywack you need a really cool vehicle to work on not a truck or a vw or desert buggy something the little nicer foose and kindig style

[@Tanman799]

Yeah missing Victor too 😕

[@Tanman799]

Its good you have more than one project grinding on one nonstop can make you hate it think it's better for the viewers too.

[@ROBByJONEs-2]

11 min in i love jamies joke "a bead roller" well timed and funny

[@ScottDawson-xt4he]

Ian, I'm an old sheet metal guy from the Air Force. I used a break like yours many times. Since you can't change the radius of the upper portion of the brake, you can use a scrap piece of sheet metal to increase the radius. Take the scrap piece and bend it up as much as you can, leave that piece in place and then put your actual piece under the piece you just bent. Clamp the two piece down and bend your part. This increases the bend radius by the thickness of your scrap piece. You can keep staking pieces to make lager radius bends. Really like the new channel. Please keep it up.

[@BrianTaylor-v6q]

@@ScottDawson-xt4he Were you ever at Shaw Airforce Base? In Sumter, SC? I lived there. Thank you for your service 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@ScottDawson-xt4he]

Never made it to Shaw. I was out at Castle AFB, in Merced Ca. Worked mostly B-52's.

[@BrianTaylor-v6q]

@@ScottDawson-xt4he you had the coolest job! I was dumb, went army, just a puke job in supply. Shaw is on the east coast, South Carolina, bug capital of the lower 48.

[@DeadBrokeST]

The interaction between you two takes building cars to the next level

[@thegrimm9434]

Thanks for letting us all be able to watch you work I wish they were longer videos

[@larrybeussink7737]

I’m 65 and have never thought of turning a tape measure blade over to make a straight line. Thanks for teaching me something new today.

[@Wallamoose59]

I think the best ‘shorts’ would be Ian in PLAID shorts. Reaching out to Carhart to manufacture a Rousell’s custom exclusive

[@GregoryBamber]

I'm 67 and back to building one-off custom bicycles. The mind is willing but to protect my wearing out body most times I sit on a chair that is only 12 inches high while building or repairing bicycles.

[@fullcustomIan]

As you should! Whatever is comfortable for you!

[@howardnielsen6220]

I’m with you age is catching up with me at age 86 The mind has it. The body not so Don’t stop my friend sounds a like fun hobby building custom Bikes

[@stephanie-yu4ng]

I feel your pain. I'm 74 and getting up and down sucks these days. So, I got me one of those 36" shop stools from Harbor Freight and a 15" round piece of oak. I cut the legs off of the stool at the support ring. I used medal cable 1/2 clamps all around to attach the wood ring and a set of 5 swivel wheels and I've got a just over a 15" hi shop stool with padded seat and wheels.

[@johnosborne7637]

I never question your technique, the end results are always amazing.

[@michaelgautreaux3168]

@ 29:27; ...& the crowd roars! 😁. Always fabulous stuff, many thanx guys. 👽🛸

[@fullcustomIan]

Thank you for watching!!

[@jamescnorris]

Thank you both for this. To listen, respond, and take the time. . . This is absolutely fantastic. I appreciate you both. 💪🏼

[@ddmau7995]

Hey Ian, my buddy lives in the NORTH WOODS IN WISCONSIN He has a 1947 brand new WILLYS jeep body that was made in South America! .They shipped it to him in a crate ! He bought 2 47's that were rusting out in a farm field for parts .I just told him to watch your channel .

[@markhouck1671]

Ian, Your a great craftsman, I really enjoyed your art. Watching your welding skills is real pleasure. The best to both of you on our new shop and channel.

[@baileyrivers7771]

What a ace job on the panel repair,good to see Jamies jeep starting to get a bit of love again

[@danielnorton7743]

Ian, I've been a follower of your show for years now. I love the way u teach on metal fab on ordinary tools. Show s what's possible , with little inganewaty , fabrication is possible. I know you don't have a bead roller, if you can I'd like to watch how to form bead support in floor pans by hand. Jamie and Ian keep up the GREAT WORK and FABICATION on the IMPOSSIBLE.

[@fullcustomIan]

Thank you 🙏

[@RichardEidson]

The trunk pan for the Zephyr looks way better now. Nice choice

[@johnkranz4004]

Very nice patch panel Ian good video Jamie

[@michaelpayne3996]

I am always amazed at your metal working and fabrication!!

[@frankstorey5007]

Love the new digs, you make it look so easy.keep it up. I haven’t missed an episode tv or KZbin thanks

[@40momba]

Hi Jamie & Ian So happy for you guys ! Love the new digs! George The GlassMan👽👽👽👽👽👽👽

[@fullcustomIan]

Thank you!

[@KurtBzdyk]

Thanks for taking the time to show the DETAILS of the Jeep fender repair, esp your welding method. I'm about to do similar stuff on my 61 Travelette. Been working on these old trucks for 50 yrs but never got into body panel repair. Also, I learned tinknocking on the exact same brake back in the 80's! Haven't seen one of those in awhile...

[@johnconnick3796]

Thank you for the upload, hope new workshop taking shape, and settled into your new house 👍

[@fullcustomIan]

Thank you!

[@crescentcoachworkscollecti378]

Good to see you're back in the groove. As an amateur hobbyist I love these videos So many 'hot' tips. Watching your videos helps me up my game over here in the UK.

[@PeggyLima-t3w]

Great new shop! We're happy to see you're back creating beautiful cars. Best of luck

[@ronbunker5778]

I love watching you making panels and parts, and I learn a lot every video! Thanks for what you do!

[@JamesHanrahan-ox2qr]

Love the channel! Real car guy doing real car stuff. Without all the fluff.

[@scottcole6129]

Nice patch panel

[@scottbrotherton3891]

Great work Ian, really enjoyed the episode 👍

[@TX-biker]

In the last installment - Those of us that have watched you for a while, could see a “less than contented” face at the end. True to your style, you “make a decision, then recover”👍🏽🤠

[@SecondHalfofLife]

Thanks for showing that mig technique for spanning the panel gap between two thin panels. I've always struggled with that. Very clever.

[@fullcustomIan]

You’re welcome 😎

[@davidjohnson-ve8ts]

You ALWAYS make it look so easy. Love your skills.

[@GettinGreasyGarage]

Hi Ian and Jamie! I am starting to build my 1959 Willys DJ3A (left hand steer postal jeep) right hand steer wasn't standard for the USPS til 1964 . A lil Jeep history for Jamie! Anyhoo I need to replace the floor braces and I want to build my own. I am a rookie with sheet metal but I do have the equipment. I noticed your braces are rusted out too. I would appreciate seeing how Ian approaches making them. Yes they are available but I like making things. The braces rot out from the inside because Willys formed them over wood and left the wood in which got wet, rotted and caused the metal to rust. The braces are also known as "hat channels". Thank you for your videos!

[@copperaudio9664]

Humid in the shop - open some doors. It'll get cooler and less humid. Great show you two. 😎👍

[@MichaelMitchell-vk9lk]

Love the shorts that you’re doing. How about a video chat with Heidi the chooky handed gal. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@fullcustomIan]

Awww maybe when she visits. It would be a fun live to do!

[@ZonDog]

That Jeep reminds me of Nellybell, a Jeep on Roy Rodgers Show. A loooooong time ago.😊

[@mrbill8542]

YES !!! Boy do I feel old !!

[@chrisbader8205]

Love the work on the Willy’s, that shop was meant for Jeeps!

[@jondyer11]

Jamie, can you do a video of what you have learned and how you edit your videos? Your skills are really evolving. Thanks for showcasing Ian!

[@kajsa0523]

Hi Jamie and Ian, greatings from sweden 🇸🇪 keep up the good work you do ❤

[@Paul_D_Lashley]

Watching you cut and weld on that jeep reminds me of my grandfather telling me how they used to have big buckets of asbestos that the army used for washing those jeeps.

[@SteveYankovich]

Great teaching on building a replacement panel

[@palmor22]

As a retired welder, I still got a hunk of brass in my tool box that is over 40years old.

[@howardnielsen6220]

Ian history of the Chevy lettering on your break you may have mentioned it and I missed it I apologize thank you I have learned so much from watching you you’re so knowledgeable of working Metal Old guy here in La Pine Oregon

[@Ian_Roussel]

It’s from an old tailgate

[@5150vic]

I have to say that I really enjoy watching what you have done. But now I really enjoy what you’re teaching as you go. I’m a beginner and love to learn new techniques. So thanks and keep up with these shorts.

[@marcduthie4327]

A very nice job Ian. Loving seeing the new shop come together. Have a good week. Marc from Australia 🇦🇺

[@jodycopeland1]

I try to catch every episode I’ve been watching Ian for years now that wife is camera person and always has great comments to get Ian to explain more of what he is doing it’s a great thing

[@TX_Bluesman001]

Cannot wait to see Jamie tooling around in this bad boy!

[@nikob829]

Good stuff Ian I hope I good as you one day with welding lol keep up the awesome work when you getting back to the GO-CART

[@KayakCampingOffGrid]

Congratulations on the new workshop, it's certainly more spacious and usable, without the annoying post right in the middle! Great fun watching wheel arch panel repair happen super fast, and the whole technique behind it! 😊😊 I ALWAYS blink when I hear the welder crackle... I forget there's no need watching on KZbin... 😊😊😊

[@40momba]

Lunch time!👽👽👽👽👽👽👽

[@fullcustomIan]

Have a great lunch!

[@matwalton9775]

Hi guys I've just gone onto your Shopify shop and was blown away with how much you've got on there. I've been after the OG Roussel's t-shirt for so long so have just treated myself. Keep up the great content I haven't missed a single video.

[@mikehynes6632]

This is absolutely my most favorite type of repair to watch Ian make! That was wonderful!

[@robertbennett9243]

I've watched you from the start of your "career". I would never say anything bad about you or your skills. I like the way you teach like a shop teacher. I've learned a lot from your videos. Keep it up.

[@mickeyholt3868]

Hello Jamie @ Ian thanks for reading are message if you ever get tired of being a fabricator, you could always be a math teacher. You do awesome job with your math. Cars looking good and jeep

[@glennwoods2462]

I am soooo waiting for the red VW next instalment 🤟

[@fullcustomIan]

Soon!

[@richardbarry8399]

My thoughts are it doesn’t matter how you get to the end result as long as you get there 👍 you don’t always need all of the tools. Keep doing what you do best 😊

[@rickerwill2]

I really hope this lesson continues with the repair to that rusty stress point Ian noted on the rear quarter, too. I have an identical spot on the side of my '51 Willys that is the only rust on the entire body. There is a bracket under the sheet metal there that captures dust and moisture which, of course, results in that rust-through. I'm looking for a pointer on how to prevent it recurring. Looking forward to Part 12!

[@rayroberts4385]

I’m just glad you are still creating spectacular content

[@garyseaton4619]

The shop is looking awesome. Workable space with organization and no center posts...

[@leesimowitz4121]

This video was like watching a master class in welding and body repair.I feel like I'm attending KZbin University with you guys. Great video work Jamie. Keep the content coming. Lee in Socal

[@1954shadow]

Ian, you are a good man. First, for being at ease with your wife, looking over your shoulder while you work and on top of that, filming it.

[@fullcustomIan]

Thank you kindly!

[@HalfDead-we1ru]

Cool. I imagine the piece that you stretched could have been on the same sheet you did it separate which look easier an now stronger

[@philipmichaud9529]

You guys make a great team, I really enjoy your videos 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

[@johnwhltson5319]

Isn't it nice to be able to unlock the door and go right to work without having to dust, sand off rust, push vehicles around, and no center post.😊

[@fullcustomIan]

Omg so nice 😎☺️

[@jodycopeland1]

One of the best channels on you tube

[@davidfriedline7525]

The shorts are really good , no one does that Ian ! Light bulb went off again ! Lol

[@fullcustomIan]

They are a lot of fun to do.

[@meandcolin]

Hi I found your channel a few weeks ago and have watched pretty much all of it lol. Love watching and learning how to do this stuff. Happy Saturday from the UK.

[@HWK4LFE76]

I totally dig you guys! I love the show too. 👽

[@gizmofish57]

I fought the shorts for so long, but your version is gold! Staring to que up more shorts

[@lonepineguy]

Good to see you in the new shop!! I can't wait to see the Willys on the road, hang on Jamie you'll have a vehicle that started it all. I've got 2 '48 & '55

[@selbord1]

As always Ian, I sit back after you close out an episode thinking if I were 40 years younger.

[@KyleMann-h4s]

I just want to say that your process of problem solving, is very much like my own. Although I'm a carpenter, I like to think outside the box and make do with the tools at hand. I call it turning goose shit into gold.lol Your work and creativity are top notch 👌 Keep up the good work and I'm jealous of your new shop 😅

[@derekwalters6132]

I’m not 100% positive Ian but I could swear Jamie gave you permission to get a bead roller, at least that’s what it sounded like to me. LOL. And I get what you were saying at the end you were going for functionality more than making it ready for Barrett Jackson or as Mortske of Mortske Repairs says Bennett Johnson. The panel you replaced is going to make it safe, abate the rust and Jamie’s going to get years of enjoyment out of the Jeep. And have to say you did a pretty decent job forming that with the steel break

[@kitmaira]

I noted the reference to Kai, I worked with him at Easyriders, and miss him every day.

[@Telephony954]

Its always a pleasure to watch a master just doing his basics. well done. very helpful. science. Be well.

[@Studebacher]

Ian, the biggest concept i have learned from you is to keep it simple! one small step at a time. thank you!

[@ellertorresiii1081]

Hi Ian, You and Jamie is a good team buddies and having a wonderful time and fun working together.

[@nickmorrow3829]

That was some fancy Jamie trick photography on that panel shrinking comparison. 😂😂

[@erictopasna5893]

You're still an awesome couple to me. Love the entertainment. Gives me motivation to work on my projects. Thank you guys for making me able to move forward. Keep up the great work that you both do. Loving it

[@stevegeorge4031]

Ian, great show! the new shop looks great!! glad you're not going to be boiling and popping like a tick from the excessive heat 😅 On the old flat fenders, that was the location for mounting the side mounted spare. combination of the weight and it hanging out out getting hit.

[@65cj55]

The spare was behind the arch.

[@TheREALOC1972]

One of my dream builds is a Hot Rod Jeep. Not like most people build, I mean like a TRUE Hot Rod, like a T-Bucket but using a Jeep Body Tub.

[@Jesse_gc]

Good to see you are back

[@jamesshepherd6260]

A bead roller would be a great add to the shop. Zephier trunk pan and the jeep. Come on EQ Suppolier, time to comp them a bead roller.

[@65cj55]

If he wanted one, he would of had one years ago.

[@darellsunderlin4670]

I don't know if it's just me but your welder buzz seems smoother and stronger , like your getting alot cleaner electricity there at the new shop. 😊

[@Ian_Roussel]

It was always windy in the other shop. Made the welder sputter alot

[@markrogers397]

The one thing I'm not seeing in your new shop is a lift !!!. I know you have limited space but when I built my shop I purchased one that is removable. I know the older I got the more I was so glad I did. It has been a life saver for the back and legs getting up and down from the floor.

[@65cj55]

He's having the one moved from the Ranch.

[@williamenglish4398]

Ian, if you want to radius your bends on the sheet metal break , put another piece of metal to double it up and it'll give you a nice radius.

[@onlyme4997]

You make things look so easy Ian ,and it’s easy if you know how. BTW your method of gap welding is a better way to fill those gaps than using a coat hanger.

[@jimharris4087]

I enjoy watching Ian doing his thing to cars. He has such creative mind it blows me away.👍

[@jamesklima4078]

Love those Jeeps and you do such awesome work

[@chriszarecki2042]

That radius stretch was spot on! Nicely done 😊

[@boomerbassmeme]

After that stretch he needed that DAYUUUUUMMMMMMMM clip from Friday! 😂😂🤣🤣 That was so spot on! He never ceases to amaze me!

[@laurensmith1828]

Great patch repair thanks

[@derbf1]

Just catching up on your videos, great to see you both again, I'm liking the new shop and format. 👍

[@vaughanspragg5776]

Cool show man😊

[@Yosemite_Sam]

Good video Ian. The disaster that was the trunk/boot floor looks better now mate. It will evolve as the build progresses but you need a bead roller so you can do corners. The Jeep is a lotta work but a winner. Looking forward to the progress.

[@65cj55]

It was never a disaster..

[@andrewparry6106]

Love watching a Craftsman

[@toddbritton3221]

Well Jamie was a Nurse..

[@angelgarza8898]
