If the only things people comment on is the way you look and the music, I would say you are doing a great job on the video concerning the Hellcat. Keep up the good work. I'm learning a lot. Can't wait to see the finished product.

What I enjoy most about these videos is the “just do it“ attitude. No technical explanations; just takeoff all the bolts until the part comes out.

[@unprofessionalmechanic8466]

Hi, did I miss to see it or your frame guy did not basecoated/painted and did not apply any anticorrosion spray to inside of the rails? Same goes to the roof skin, was it at least basecoated for rust protection from inside? I am far away from automotive repairs but it is my understanding that metal that was subjected to extreme heat from welding has tendency to rust like there is no tomorrow... Just my 2 cents.

[@markcarter9476]

Good to see you doing a comprehensive job on your Hellcat rather than trying to cut corners. Hope it works out for you.

[@grzegorzkoecki5375]

Welcome. The next time you weld spot, paint these parts with copper paste. Copper melts and additionally combines parts and does not allow access to moisture, thanks to which these places do not corrode. Test it. Observed when renovating vintage cars. Greetings. P.S. Of course, it is about painting the internal parts of the sheets in contact with each other.

Zinc is better. Besides, Chrysler doesn’t recommend weld through primer at all. Pretty much have to rely on cavity wax

[@fepatton]

As a former Challenger owner (2012), I love this series. It's so great to see this beast not end up in a scrapyard and to see talented craftsmen show their skills. (Your frame guy is amazing.) I will say that shortly after I got my Challenger home, I realized just how flimsy the roof skin was - I've had convertibles with more solid roofs! Not at all surprised it buckled in the accident. Enjoy your awesome ride!

[@KnowoneKnowhere713]

If you're not sure on the color do the whole thing the original color then wrap what you want different. I'm doing that with the hood on my challenger, I like the color but I catch some serious glare sometimes from the sun and am gonna do a matte black vinyl wrap on it. Almost the best of both worlds and you're not fully committed to having it be 2 colors as you could always peel the wrap off.

[@hatachi61]

Awesome job again! Sorry to nitpick but what you drilled out were spot welds, what you used to put the roof back on are plug welds. Your frame guy is +1.

[@alanh2077]

Lots of progress! Paint the roof the original color and do the carbon fiber stripes!

[@robertsmith5389]

You guy's did an excellent job on every part. I recently just had to take the front bumper off my hellcat for a repaint and even that was a mission to achieve

[@cgkuch4184]

The majority of the metal that is welded together in Body in white during the body framing will have that white sealer for a tight seal and to stop the metal on metal from creaking. Black adhesive sealer will be on the pillars and other areas for extra strength and bonding all of which are welded. Again great vids. Kudos to,your bodyman. I work for FCA As an electrician in the body shop. I over see a line with about 60 robots. Sealer, Material handlers and welding. Technology is something else.

Insane amount of work there. That dash looked easier going in, than it did coming out. Ive never seen a roof skin removed before. Usually its a full turret replacement ive seen. I rekn the car should be all the one colour.

@UC__HZLw76GWWfkZ92qH3VVA I'm sure it was checked out, we have been fixing these uni-body cars for years now, and yes, there are some that shouldn't be fixed, this one actually looks like a pretty easy fix, roof could have been repaired, front frame rails always roll, and as for the "SHOCK WAVE" a uni-body car will always buckle the roof or the sail panel, I'm sure he hung gauges on it, and it will track and be align-able, the tires will wear just fine, we had a 69 Camaro with a blower motor that came in and we had to repair a buckle in the roof because when he launched it it pulled the right up too far, car gauged out, scaled out and was in perfect alignment before the roof was even repaired, this car was not a hard it.

[@1STLAR2147]

You made that look easy! Nice work! I personally would have turned it into a hardtop as I'm not a fan of moonroofs. I don't think that's stress damage from the crash, but someone sitting on the edge while the top was open. Whatever the case, the Car is really coming together!

[@fivedotsdave9723]

It's a bad sign when the roof has so many dents and is so soft in places, I hope when it was on the bench it was measured for a front to back twist, chargers do have a softish chassis and the sunroof does help.....

Possibly the car crashed against a tree and the branches fell on the roof. That could explain most of the damage.

[@realmach5]

@ Not dents like that, that is 100% from the chassis flexing, I can almost guarantee that's why this car was totaled. If it were just a matter of putting it on a frame rack and replacing some parts the PO's insurance would have fixed it.

[@scottgettman4909]

@@realmach5 The reason these cars total is because of the air bags usually, 90% of the cars we get that total is because of deployed bags, broken dashes and srs parts, insurance companies are not allowed to use anything except new srs components and in the case of this car that is over 10k alone

[@realmach5]

@@scottgettman4909 Indeed, although the insurance companies we deal with seem less likely to repair moderate structural damage than they did 10 years ago when I started. From the ones I've spoken with they all pretty much say they don't want to have to deal with the liability and would rather leave it up to the insured if they want a check. A lot of this is dependent on the car and the insurance though. The companies I typically deal with would have seen the frame rails and roof and wouldn't have even thought twice about totaling it. The bags are just the cherry on top.

@@realmach5 Have you not ever heard of crumple zones .If that roof was chassis flex as you say the door probably wouldnt even open .This is a modern car not a 70s car ,which if hit on the end of the legs would push the A pillar up putting a kink in the roof .A modern car is a lot stronger but with crumple zones on the legs and other places This wasnt even hit on the legs it was was bang in the middle of them

But I was tought in school "sectioning" not "welding" and "patching" fixes frame damage.

[@rx7what]

@@kkellerk23 But he didn't just weld it up. They welded it then add a piece 5 times as thick as the original to it. It also WASN'T frame damage. It was a mount to hold the top of the strut. Not anywhere near the frame of the car(also that car is a unibody car and doesn't have a "frame"). Did he do it the exact way I would have in my shop? No. but what they did is far more than enough to make the car as good as or better than stock. Also whoever told you metal weakens in an accident was smoking crack. Metal can loose some of its ionic bonds at a molecular level by bending it repeatedly back and forth. His car wasn't even in an accident. I don't know what kind of school you were learning about building and repairing car frames but welding and plating is by far the most common and should be done 90% of the time over sectioning and replacing. Especially on any kind of older car or truck that has a actually frame. Look up what a fish plate or fish scale is for frame work. Also learn what a frame is vs a unibody car.

@@FarmerSteveO The problem here would be all the time and money required to restore the car. Mechanics and body shops arent cheap.

Jr Montoya I can’t stand memes but that needs to be one 😂😂

[@maxbell6237]

FarmerSteveO The term “total loss” simply means that the cost of repairs exceeds the value of the vehicle; not that the vehicle is not repairable. Usually at that point they typically sell them at auction as a “salvage; rebuildable” vehicle, vs. a “salvage non-rebuildable” which refers to a vehicle that cannot be rebuilt.

Just saying, there's no such thing as redoing spot welding "holes". There were never any holes to start with! You should maybe look at a resistant spot welder or a conversion to spot for your MIG handpiece. If you're gonna keep doing these, a wise investment. BTW, great video, music still sucks!

[@guscastillo4023]

grant houghton . Great catch. You were the only one to mention this huge misstep. Drilling weakened the points of contact that the welds need to create the structural integrity of the unibody at the roof. The use of the proper welder, technique, adhesives and the intact roof panel is never optional, it's basic to a proper repair. Even the windshield and back glass contribute to the providing rigidity and strength.
