Hey Doug I'm building a modelA cyclecart here in the Philippines,it's a different world finding simple things way out in the province where I live, I have an 8 HP Honda knockoff engine,using 17inch motorcycle wheels just plugging along no hurry,the fun is the journey of the finding pieces etc. can't find any small 1/4inch plate anywhere here for example,it took me 4 weeks to find an old leaf spring, lol I really enjoy watching your build take care sir!

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

It sounds like you've got your work cut out for you Charles!Good luck!

[@mitchellsrodulski6346]

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Mitchell,I appreciate it!

[@rats56]

amazing how at a certain point the project turns the corner and you can see it actually taking shape and coming together, lot of people lose hope before it turns the corner, but it appears to me we can really see it taking shape, thanks for sharing the journey

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thank you! It's always encouraging when a pile of parts starts to look like a car!

[@MarilynBell-g8v]

So Much Talent. It May Be Better than Original. You, Kyle C., and Scott @ColdWar Can Do Anything.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Marilyn,I'm honored to be in the same company with them!

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thank you Dennis...I say in a hushed voice LOL!

[@johnbergen9663]

The floor cross brace looks great! Those vice-grip C clamps are super handy. The mocked up floor sure looks good! Excellent progress overall!

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks John! C clamp vice grips are one of the most important tools in my arsenal LOL!

[@johnk3930]

Nice

[@ChrisJEllis]

Awesome job bud. I'm still kicking myself in the butt for mine. I'm my biggest critic. I'm moving forward. Can't wait for the next video.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Chris! Don't get discouraged.As everyone keeps telling me...Progress is progress!

[@brendagaunce8757]

Like how that is going to be a better location for the gas tank than the factory had where the rear end had to almost come out to install the SW gas tank nice update on your videos.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Brenda!

[@pagarage2401]

Great job, Doug. I love what you’re doing. I always like to see someone save what others would consider junk. You are a very talented guy. Right up there with DD Speed Shop. Keep on keeping on 👍.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks!Is that your 57?That is a sweet ride!

[@davidkimsey9591]

Looks great Doug! Really starting to come together. Thanks for bringing us along

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thank you and thanks for coming along!

[@carlosgarza8936]

It’s coming together very well. Kudos! Video every day keeps me more engaged in the project

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Carlos! I like the short update format myself.Everyone likes to see progress without having to sit through a long drawn out video.It makes it feel more like a visit and less like you unpacked and moved in LOL!

[@monadking2761]

That's a good way to do it, and it will be strong. If you want, use a string along the side that will align the panels flat.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Harvey!

[@gregeverson4445]

Impressed as usual. It’s so cool seeing air space turn back into a body panel. I have the mechanical skills but I do not have the body skills. Fascinating stuff. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thank you Greg!And a Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@msdolly65]

[@timharris6835]

Doug I appreciate your confidence in fixing the Nomad, to have gone in takes a lot of skill and belief in knowing it will come back together. Me I wouldn't have attempted this!

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Tim!I thought about it for a year before I got up the courage to do it.

[@jeffdavis5704]

Floor looks good. That rear section will take a big step forward once you get the wheel wells extended to the back of the car.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

I wish I had a garage. If I did I'd probably restore one of those Oscar Meyer weiner mobiles.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

LOL!I'd watch that Tim!

[@rustymachineshop9456]

Doug the other day you showed a Sketch drawing of the tailgate i happened to notice that you must be a pretty good artist too i bet you got some kick ass drawing too? That you done over the years

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks! I used to draw all the time when I was younger.Not so much anymore but when I do I still enjoy it.

[@johnk3930]

Let’s go

[@Steve-e4h8o]

Looks great...tailgate looks awesome....modelmania (Steve)

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks modelmania Steve!

[@clasicradiolover]

I was going to mention in the last video that I had seen DD Speed Shop put that bar for shock mounting in one of his builds. I wish I could remember which one.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

It is a popular upgrade from the sketchy factory set up.

[@clasicradiolover]

@EllisKarKustoms-v9j Yeah. That's sketchy if I ever heard of something being sketchy!!

[@JonjHoffman]

Doug, I hope you and your family have the best holidays. Finish that Nomad qnd happy happy to Nomad an White Toes.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

[@Matthew-x9d]

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

Thanks Matthew!

[@greggsvintageworkshop8974]

Very nice Doug! Fantastic fabrication. Are you going to make the shock mount bar and install it prior to welding that new floor in place?

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

I have so many things to fabricate that I will probably purchase the shock bar.They are priced pretty reasonable.Thanks Gregg!

[@Jesse_gc]

Coming along nicely and I do have a couple of project cars they are a 51 and 52 Chevy keep up the great work Doug

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

[@redwinstead7873]

@ amen that’s kool. New York has some big rats I here ❤️😎

[@longjohn77]

Not working on anything as cool as you atm, just a 72 bug that's getting a minor refresh. My big project days are over, too old and broke after a very costly divorce, followed by a new relationship, followed by this old man having 2 young children. Have a 3rd gen camaro and a c3 vette put aside for them when they start driving.

[@EllisKarKustoms-v9j]

If you love it,it's cool!When my first wife and I divorced,she got half of the nothing we had LOL!I have a lot more stuff now...

[@blakestone8088]

I did Facebook for a Time, then Dumped it Unless You know how to set it up, What You Post is there for the World To See I use the Internet as a Tool - I find what I want then leave The Only thing I let run is KZbin, the rest I Look, Read, & Leave Welding - I am, Not a Mig Welder, I know Tig welding, I worked with Stainless Steel When My Lady Friends Husband died, I was the only other welder she knew so she gave me his Mig I've come a long ways welding with it, but I am Not Proficient with it It is setup as a Flux Core Welder, I couldn't find the gas hoses or shielding gas when I got it Still it's better than what I had to do without one A Garage or Shop Doug lets step outside on the Rocked Driveway to see my work area Those 3 sheets of Plywood go under the vehicle, so my Crane can roll up & pluck the engine out Now we can go inside the Carport where I have work stations setup for Engine/Transmission Rebuilding We with little to nothing Can Do Amazing Things with what we have available... thx Bro
