Thanks for another great video Brent. She's lookin really cool 🐾🍺

[@MrSparks54]

Frank'nDodge beginning to look mean and lean. Thanks Brent. Cheers.

[@d.l.b3452]

Groovy sounds. Digging them . Cool. 🧐🇬🇧🧐

[@jimhaus]

Wow, Brent, this may be the prettiest car you've made yet! Loved seeing it pseudo-mocked up. Thanks to you and Esther for providing us with so much entertainment.

[@HalfassKustoms]

Haha I'm over the worst hump :)

[@mikeramirez913]

Your art will be in the world far after you are gone. Be proud my friend you are already a Legend.

[@dayslife]

the beast is on its four 👍✔

[@howardkoster4026]

Ohhhhh, Pablo was going to town with his chow. He was hungry!!!! You're making some great progress here brent! Whenever I see a build, using a body without any floor, I'm always thinking, "WHERE does one begin to put in the braces and such?" But you just map it all out and do it!!! Oh, too bad about that mis-hap with the mag-drill. I'm glad you weren't hurt!! Goodness....

[@arnolau]

THANK YOU for an ENJOYABLE VIDEO. Your sense of HUMOR and EXPERTISE, keep my interest HIGH. YOU ARE A "REAL" CAR BUILDER !!!

[@blackbuttecruizr]

Looking great!!!

[@whittlerdave1440]

Car is turning up better and better everyday as a great looking stance when sun aired out

[@jq7130]

Love your stuff buddy , have been with your channel for over a year ! Never disappointed!

[@lottiecooper609]

I agree. Take whatever you have and make something, then make some money. Talk about living the dream. Well said buddy, and have a great day.

[@tehdc]

Good stuff…good enough to let the ads play and put some pennies in Halfass Kustoms pocket…well worth it. Thanks for your efforts.

[@kurtludwig6962]

Absolutely on skirts. I’ve seen a lot of OG lo-rider with a slight bubble skirt that over lap fender opening .

[@Rs_ArGoX2170]

i have anxiety and panic attacks, Your channel and your positive vibe always get me relaxed and get me asleep i cant thank you enough for providing us with this lenghty and quality content ❤

[@dfusit]

The skill and ease you display is quite impressive. This ride is gonna be so sweet when she’s finished.

[@donprice9050]

I think that every time he starts a build! It goes from impossible to, "Holy crap that's cool!"

[@andrzejpacan1883]

jak go zrobicie jak za czasów swojej świetności lub po wyjeździe z fabryki to będzie cacko lub wisienka na torcie a narażone trzeba włożyć wiele pracy żeby zachwycał oglądających

[@andrzejpacan1883]

​@@donprice9050 przepraszam bardzo to nie jest horoba to będzie piękny samochód

[@rogerpence]

This is gonna be the coolest car ever built live. When you first showed us that rusty-ass four-door I thought you were crazy.

[@jimbojones101]

Yup! Sho is crazeee in a halfassed way! Lol

[@garylamb4777]

AWESOME 😎

[@UKDrew]

Awesome as Always.... Best Build series yet... Thank you

[@paulblack2402]

That’s a cool looking car with the front end in place. Good stuff again Brent. We’ll done

[@rogergonsoulin9675]

YOU ARE AN ARTIST, TRUELY GREAT!!!!

[@scotthay1486]

Wow, I am amazed how you just fabricate what you need as you go along and the thought process required to work out what to do. Great stuff. Be safe.

[@maxdragon91]

Wow! This project is mind-boggling, with so much creativity.

[@CSmith-oz4wp]

Awesome Friday, had a big smile when you sat that thing on the floor. Going to be a great cruiser.

[@terrencebuller7676]

Hello Brent, this car is awesome, one of your best builds. The General is still my favorite though. Great work my friend. Be good and stay safe. 👍

[@josndala]

Yes the General was the prettiest ever. But this one also requires lots of work and Brent is the master of challenges!! Let's enjoy the next steps

[@Bigskyguy56]

Looks great Brent. The bumpers look good on the car. It gives the car a finished look. Take care, Rick

[@richardmarino5658]

Brent the magician. Along with Esther quite the team. Stay well.

[@robertduvall7392]

Sweeping in front of the dollies reminded me of Frame Table Curling...

[@TrendsbySterling]

I really enjoy watching how you build the frame for the floor. Amazing to me Brent. Thanks for sharing!

[@racebanning6390]

GREAT JOB ON THE FLOOR AND TUNNEL SKELETON, I MISS NOT HAVIN THE FUNDS TO BUILD ANOTHER PROJECT, BUT ITS ALWAYS KOOL TO WATCH ANOTHER BUILDER DO THERES. DIGGIN THE BUILD!!!

[@johncourtneyscott2757]

I learn a lot more from watching you than I do listening to someone trying to explain!

[@sinsino6859]

You are an outstanding creative artist

[@Digger927]

Man that thing looks friggin sick, I love it. It's like a steampunk batmobile or something, lol.

[@markstack2309]

The mad scientist is knocking this out of the park well done. Can't wait for more

[@alanhicks3361]

Emmeit brown strikes again

[@92xl]

That Mag Drill fiasco is definitely a stunt that I would have pulled....good job!!!

[@WingmanJohnny]

Holy smokes. Made your own bending tool. That turned out super cool 😎. I like all the fabrication. Keep up the great work

[@michaelrichter1465]

Always a great day when a new Halfass Kustoms vid drops...thx Brent the car is looking good. Love the slam on it, you bagged that thing just right! PS looks like Pablo might be on the fence on this one. He'll appreciate the bags when he wants to get in, for sure!!!

[@rescuedandrestoredgarage]

Dear Lord Brother, You got so much done. The plan is really coming together. Your vision is looking awesome 👌.

[@rscruiser3533]

Glad the Mag Drill didn't come around and hit you in the side of the head ---Ouch ---- You are coming right along ----- Rodney

[@goofball3236]

hello everyone have a great weekend

[@davidlouis2354]

For me this was a lesson of ingenuity. Some of the tools and techniques used for bending were inspiring. Most people struggle on with one seemingly obvious tool and don't think to use more unconventional but effective methods. You are a master cat skinner. :)

[@matthewfocke5360]

You knocked that metalwork out in a short order of time. Looking spiffy. Thanks for sharing!

[@johnmaher4300]

Metal master, we love it when you go nuts with your grinder and welder! Big ups 😎

[@randybecker8146]

That car has all the right looks!!

[@robertkuhn999]

Brent you are doing a super excellent job I enjoy your work terminasly keep up the great work

[@pigidly]

Love the front!! Love the bumper!! Skirts awesome!!! Idea… you should try to incline the rad more toward the cowl… to have a bit more angle? I would try to look at it, to see how it would look like.

[@rogerpence]

Leaning that nose back a little is great idea!

[@harrytaylor6854]

Great video sir Brent it 's cool to see it with the front fenders and nose on it going to be very cool when it's complete no doubt .well done thank you

[@tugmountianroadcampers5582]

Love the full fenders!!!

[@bradpage8967]

You put a major dent in the floor job! Back when you positioned the motor I was wondering how you would get around the steering. Didn’t even know that they made that gearbox contraption! That’s gonna save the day! Always walking away from your videos learning something new!!!! Thank you Brent!!

[@brucewolfe5204]

I liked the 55 Napco truck But this Dodge is really takeing shape I like the length with the bumpers

[@jimbojones101]

It's a pastiche of cars, Brent . . . I proclaim her Peachy Pastiche! Lmao i am loving this build, my friend.

[@jimbojones101]

😊

[@williamoneal2763]

Brent..I really like your “GOULASH” name for this car. Pieces and parts of everything.

[@williamoneal2763]

This build has indeed been a challenging undertaking. You really are building this car. We are very impressed with your talent and skill. Best car show on KZbin. Thanks.

[@garylamb4777]

Pablo's a meatball 😆. I like the trick to bending the square tubing. It's coming together quickly Brent can't wait to see the floors go in too

[@cautiouslyoptimistic6185]

Brent,if we were drilling upside down, we would chain the mag drill to the object that we were drilling. Then, if we lost power the mag drill would be left hanging from the chain, instead of hitting the floor. Good luck in the future....I'm digging the car a lot !!

[@paulbonell5911]

she looks awesome on the ground with the guards on her. Love it. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@brentking-gmailking2570]

Looking good Brent, can’t wait till the next one

[@tolomirog]

muy entretenido ver la construccion de ese auto bravo y gracias !!

[@theodoreharper4565]

Brent you are a master builder. The front profile with the fenders and hood is beautiful. The bird cage flooring is perfect and extra safe. I think factory A/C compressor mount with belt and tensioner is cheap, reliable, and over counter part is a better choice. Thanks for another class.

[@georgew.morrowiii118]

This is such a cool looking project.

[@henryverrydt4943]

Loving the build. Ditch the bumper guards, the bumper will look cleaner and meaner. Skirts look great, getting closer.......

[@frankkirby5763]

I really am excited to hear that you want to rear skirt. The new top looks killer. I love the chop. You are not afraid of anything that this build requires you to “hack up.” Lol. I am going to start sharing your site with my friends. This is just amazing. I know how hard this is to do. Best wishes and I say this ride is going to be “ meaner than a three legged dog with one ball”. Lol!

[@benbloomer7503]

When you dropped her down and was sitting on the ground, she looked sweet Bent. I look forward to every new video.

[@benjamincresswell3713]

Excellent video Brent. There is absolutely nothing better than watching a "Pro" at work. You not only do outstanding fabrication work, but your editing is spot on. Fun and easy to follow. My vote; use the factory exh mans. GM gave you individual ports and a fairly petit manifold that dumps out on a slight angle befor the trans, very good looking to me. Thank you !

[@blueeyz2046]

Carona and I thank you and Esther! Pablo eating made him (Carona) look up! Man, you did GOOD work on that metalwork around the transmission! I love your steering solution, I never knew such a thing existed.

[@alanpaulick7815]

I just cont get enough of this awesome build Brent. Thanks for sharing your content.

[@CSmith-oz4wp]

That floor frame work looks fantastic, hard to see that you ran out of steel but look at the skeleton work there and you can see why. Gas tank, why wouldn’t I think you would make a tank, crazy me. Got me dreaming of Hot Rod summer.👨‍🏭 Like, share and tell a friend.

[@therustyshoe8958]

Brent that car is going to be badass. I love the lines. Cant wait to see it done

[@dougpeak7591]

Finally off the frame table o yeah🎉 It looks badass with all of the other body parts mocked up! I really like the looks of the wheel skirts on the rear. Awesome !

[@roberthood2352]

Great channel enjoy the content tremendously. Can’t wait to see her go down the road

[@bumfie]

Another great show

[@vikingfather1]

Magnetic drill hint, it should have a chain to attach to a secure support Point when using overhead. Great if you have loss of power or a poor mounting point! Love your channel and you hard work! Keep it up!

[@alanhicks3361]

Clamp a thick piece of plate and it won't come off . I have been using for 30 + years and never dropped once . Another fact . Buy Rotabroach brand and will last forever

[@HalfassKustoms]

Yeah I kind of told myself that I think you're supposed to be a strap with it haha

[@alanhicks3361]

@Halfass Kustoms all the chep brands are crap gearboxes break etc .

[@markallchorn2438]

Great looking floor Brent, you've got an excellent workshop, with all that usable equipment. Always enjoy seeing what you make for the cars. Brill 👍

[@fabbricaitalianaautomobili5859]

Excellent music again, thanks uncle , L8ter, ciao ciao

[@stnkyp8]

I love the body lines on this one. She is going to be a looker.!

[@astravanmk2]

Looks super mean sat on the ground, I love it. The floor is looking great. Taking shape at a pace.

[@dayslife]

can't believe how big this car looks all together , even after chopping and shortening it ...

[@rayeplin3733]

Ray from west Virginia I'm really digging this build I can't wait to watch every time you post a video. On this one I really like how and where it's going very cool awsom

[@jamesfairbairn1588]

And as always another great video. I’m learning lots and enjoying the process of this build. She’s gonna be a beaut that’s for sure. Love Pablo the shop Forman lol.

[@karlstehle8750]

Man in my hot rod mind, this might be the coolest look for a ride ever

[@robertjean659]

Every time I see that mag drill reminds me of some safe crackers that were using one to rob safes in Australia many years ago. This thing is going to look cool going down the road. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍

[@wesleybrowning504]

Love the finders.

[@bobzelijah]

Man you have an unbelievable car brain what a righteous ride what a stance. I always look forward to what your gonna pull out of your top hat 😂 it’s magic I love it. Hi Esther

[@kevinboardman3060]

Sweet looking buddy.

[@tommccartney9472]

So happy you are using the welding glasses. I wish other people I sent them to would try them out. You Rock the hot rods dude.

[@HalfassKustoms]

Haha there hard to us I'm my shop I find as my wall lights trigger them :)

[@SchysCraftCo.]

Brett it is coming along very nicely. It's looking really cool on the ground. Love the finder covers over the wheels. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On weld On. Keep Making. God Bless..

[@davidmulvey6884]

i rember watching you build your truck what a gifted man you are the one you drive all the time

[@raymondcoggins297]

Really looking good knew it was gonna be another awesome build be cool supercharged

[@usmclee65]

The bucket seats might be what you needed anyway with that transmission, top chop and really low ride, everything is going great, well except the majic elector drilly thing!

[@harrycatrell1471]

Thanks for another lesson, Brent! It has been an amazing journey, thus far! Hot Rods, and Shop Dogs! It doesn't get much better! Nice bed Pablo was cooling on! Enjoy! Be safe! Bro Harry

[@johnangelo5567]

Seeing that car on the ground OMG she is gonna be epic..real nice Brent

[@leecornelius1424]

Wow went back watched it as yard art then to a roller on four wheels what a cool ride the old plymouth looks sinister

[@hickeyskustomresto]

That thing is growing quite the character, might be your best one yet 👍

[@stuartfletcher2378]

With the floor almost ready to go in it looks better than ever , you are able to see where everything is going to fit and what room you have to place necessary fixtures . Till next time thank you , your videos are A1 . Stuart in Ontario.................

[@MichaelSchauger]

Good instructions and comments. Thorough explanation of step by step construction

[@jackmehoff2961]

Minty ! Thank You for sharing your video, and letting us hang out . Later ...

[@Bman2020]

Great work on the floor as always nice watch 👍👋🇨🇦

[@johnhouseholder7682]

Coming along nicely,Pablo tell Brent Esther and buddy hello.thanks John from Arizona

[@alchemymotorsports]

That thing looks seriously cool down on the ground with that front clip on it. Very nice build.

[@deancoley7987]

The work you have put in to this project is truly amazing, and a video record to show countless vehicle builders now and in the future. loving every minute.

[@briankinnear7461]

Really nice work. Love all the fab work evolving as you go. Gonna be a really cool and unique ride. Look forward to more. Be safe and stay well.

[@MrPetrvershinin]

I watch the process with pleasure AND I WANT TO SEE the ship on the water - it will really be an extremely satisfactory broadcast ...

[@stomper2582]

Everything sure is falling in place well…Just like it’s suppose to. It’s going to be a strong body. Stronger than the original. Really like the build. 👊😎👍🦅
