Farm trucks got extra gas rations . So , alot of cars were converted to "farm trucks ".

[@1936fordcrazy]

That 36 5 window is at the right shop! And I love the tool layout, id love that much room and that many tools lol keep up the great work!

[@stuffspecialist]

Shop looks spacious....awesome love the hammer collection and stand.....don't spy a fire extinguisher....be safe !.

[@WaxMeister]

OMG Fittings were a real challenge for me when I was plumbing the fuel system to my '35 - drove me crazy, spend many, many hours searching - was nuts! Welcome to the nightmare!

[@YouBuildItYouBreakIt]

That fitting is probably BSPT, British Standard Pipe Thread. I'd definitely drill that out to NPT.

[@StephenVoss-e8q]

Love the 33. Color is growing on me. Like to see it with black fenders, but it’s beautiful the way it is. I enjoy your channel.

[@michaelguinn5736]

Travis, its great you have a customer waiting list, this is just a thought, maybe you could mas produce? 30-31 Model A inner door corner/bottoms, no one makes the corners & they're always rotted out or Missing, I bought the inner door bottom, made the corners..on your machine issue, if you want to have two machines plugged in at once, I think you will need a 100 amp service. Your new shop is looking great!!

[@murdoc6501]

Shop layout is perfect, you can always move things around, which you couldn't do in the home shop! Shop is coming together nicely, well deserved and something to be proud of! You sir, are on your way to great things! New project was definitely a pick-up. They used to turn old Duesies into tow trucks when no one wanted them! That's a helluva project, but you got it! I've got a Fenton 2x2 (from you), an original Sharp 3x2, Thickstun 2x2 hi rise, and an original Navarro 2x2. Great to see how you put these old intakes back on the road! That Edmunds is awesome, repop or original, super clean! Funyuns for the win! Go RAC Garage, keep moving forward!

The Hand throttle was a Cruise control sortoff.

[@keithshively843]

Looks to me - your shop is going in the right direction. comfortable looking work space.

[@RACGARAGE]

It's so much better!

[@johnclauser7392]

So glad you're in your bigger shop now and you have room to work. You seem much happier. That's great Travis. God bless

[@RACGARAGE]

Thank you so much, it's so much better

[@cannednolan8194]

Looks like a nice set up. I would not bother with pallet racking but load the 2nd level with shelf’s.

[@bobgaylord8883]

Love the coupe, but it's a '35, not a '36 as evidenced by the cowl lacing and a couple of other features. None should affect your build, but you might find some different hole locations for one thing or another, and you could be scratching your head wondering, so I thought I'd add it. Not meant to critize - in any case, it'll be a great ride!

[@jonimatlock1743]

Great comments on shop got good viewers 2 like them 2

[@francisrizzo1529]

Looking forward to see those biggie machines like the pullmax in action again...

[@RACGARAGE]

Me too haha

[@MartsGarage]

Hi Travis. Can I offer some old timer real world experience based advice? Ditch the soldered joint. It will probably fail. Mine did. I switched to a simple 1/4" compression Tee. Easy to fit and remove and more or less endlessly reusable. I used one on my roadster, my 32 and my 33. I showed the 33 in a recent video. Mart.

[@davidrudd9846]

My neighbor told me when he was a kid back in the early 60s in San Antonio there was an older Mexican gentleman that had a 36 that he cut out the back and rolled thru neighborhoods selling produce out of the backend

[@cannednolan8194]

You could order the part you need and have them delivered to your place then when you get home. You have the parts for the next day. When your leaving to run that’s time away from working on the cars.

[@mikedenson9063]

Very well thought out on your layout. Great job

[@RACGARAGE]

Thanks!

[@65cj55]

You've set it all up good, maybe just get a 4 socket builders powerboard to plug all the machines in, they usually have a built in breaker and safety switch.

[@Tat2TankT]

I love how your videos are I learn more about hot rods like the all around aspect of it keep them coming please oh yeah bought my first old car got me a 49 ford shoebox it’s a little rough around the bottom but some one chopped the top nicely it has a 4 inch chopped an slanted B pillars an not a dent in the car no where oh yeah wife says it’s your fault lol thanks for inspiring me to get off my ass keep it shiny side up bro 🤙🏼😎

[@garylietz6305]

Happy for you & family.

[@1936fordcrazy]

Just an idea, stock noble speed parts and other Stromberg parts and then you can retail those parts to the other local hot rodders sense they are not available in your area

[@johnkranz4004]

Nice work Setting up the shop Travis and Sweet 36 project The fuel line looks good

[@RACGARAGE]

Thank you!

[@jgar9377]

Just leave the '36 5 window intact, when you take it to get "sand" blasted (suggest other media rather than sand) just point out to the blaster what areas you don't want cleaned up (in other words, avoid the floors and back area) and they will only blast the areas that you need cleaned up. Then when you get it back you can brace it and cut out the areas that you don't want (which will still be rusty and crusty). Easier to have them blast it without a bunch of bracing in the way and have had blasters bend or break out bracing on projects before also during their process.

[@dennissanborn3159]

ur doin good kid.

[@JazzStrat781]

The shop layout looks great Travis 👍 the waiting list for your shop speaks highly of your awesome work! Best to you man!

[@RACGARAGE]

Thank you so much!

[@Tshep-wc5dy]

If you had a truck you got gasoline vouchers for more gas than just a car ie hauling products from the farm,a truck was practical so they turned their cars into trucks !

[@micseph6186]

Providing more air for the '33 to breathe.

[@williamoneal2763]

You will eventually bring about 95% of your “stuff” from the home garage to your new garage.

[@TheCrackerBox]

Thanks for another , Brother !

[@RACGARAGE]

Thanks for watching!

[@tradrodsandcustoms]

Amps are on the motor and on the breaker

[@cannednolan8194]

Sounds like it needs a new battery. Might have dry cell and dissipates it charge or it’s getting a constant draw from the car. Try disconnecting it from car and seeing if the charge dissipates. If so battery bad if the charge stays at the correct voltage under load you know the car has a draw. Have to test with a load some will give false reading of 12v being fully charged but as soon as you test it under load it will drops to 1v.

[@kathymitch-u9d]

yup , get it fixed up so when i buy it there's nothing to do to it

[@johnkelly5487]

Nice, Jack, RI, USA

[@philipthomas9309]

Battery has a duff cell or regulator is faulty shorting out, disconnect battery when you move it soon prove the problem.

[@terrykeithley6183]

Travis do you know who the manufacturers of the floor an trunk components. Thx. 😊

[@frankschwartz7405]

"2 Carbs" Great, I'm always looking for Keto recipes. Oh wait!

[@dennisd4452]

I need to ask a question. Do I mod my 47 truck cab first and then get a frame. I want to take out 18 to 20 inches from the eight foot bed. Then add five inches behind the bench seat of the cab.

[@pappabob29]

Wow!! Hate to "rain on your parade" but that fuel pipe would be the first thing I would trash if I bought that car. When that solder joint "cracks" from vibration while you're driving down the road and gas begins dripping down onto your exhaust manifolds, your car quickly becomes "history" due to an engine fire. Definitely not a good thing. Use a brass "T" at that junction !!

[@Lanni_747]

It’s braze. And harder and stronger than soft solder. And what vibrations are happening on it. It’s fixed to two carbs that are fixed also. Nothing moves. From the fuel pump to supply line there is a rubber hose to isolate vibration from motor to frame. Ive been running one on a 2x2 for over 3 years and a year on my 4x2.

[@pappabob29]

@@Lanni_747 At the time I wrote my comment, it wasn't known that it was brazed instead of soldered. As far as vibration, the entire engine is "vibrating" whenever it's running. They're always mounted on rubber mounts for that very reason. As I said, I was concerned about a fuel leak that would cause an engine fire, not trying to be a asshole.

[@Lanni_747]

@@pappabob29 I understand you but still. A carb moves with motor. The carb it self is not moving differently than the motor. So the line itself is not moving. It’s connected to 2 carbs then to a fixed fuel pump. Nothing in that line is shifting.

[@pappabob29]

@@Lanni_747 Like you, I also understand what you are saying/thinking. I believe where we disagree is in the definition of "vibration". I'm not speaking of the actual "movement" of any parts. I'm speaking about the "shaking/oscillation" that a "hanging" piece experiences when something like a engine is running with the noticeable shaking that is happening while it's running (vibration). The fuel line is supported at the carbs and the fuel pump. All of the area between those supports is "shaking/vibrating" all the time whenever the engine is running. Over time, the metal fatigues at the supports from all of the constant vibrating going on between them. Ever see a crack @ the outside edge of a Ford front fender ??? Without any physical mishap (accident), that crack is due to metal fatigue caused by constant vibration. Ford "hemmed" wire inside the outside edge of its fenders to try to avoid this outcome and even it fails. Those fenders are also "solidly" attached to the chassis but they fail anyway due to "vibration" and the resulting "metal fatigue". I don't know, well enough, the characteristics of copper to know how it's going to react to vibration as comparer to steel. The copper may be soft enough to simply "bend" instead of crack and fail like steel does. Too many questions to guess the answer so I simply prefer one more fitting at the center. A brass "T" fitting. FWIW. ;o)

[@Lanni_747]

@@pappabob29 you ever see that ac condenser outside your house? That vibrates a lot. It’s brazed. And if it’s 30+ years old 9 times out of 10 it’s soldered. No problems there tho and it’s pushing 200-300 psi at times.

[@rickeagle]

Use a piece of welding rod as a fuel tube template before bending the real thing…

[@konradweniger3141]

You need a bikini top like on a boat windshield to roll bar not one like Kelly would ware.

[@mickewingemyr9813]

Whats That Noise🤔🤔😖

[@marshallcrank]

Get rid of the Swedish nut wrench. Real men don't use them.

[@65cj55]

Real Men ?

[@kathymitch-u9d]

when will we see it running ?

[@mikegazaille7687]

Did you get a dog bone for that carb?

[@kathymitch-u9d]

you gonna change the wheels ?
