1951 Plymouth/Toyota Body Swap Part 1

[@PapiDoesIt]

I absolutely love that model Camry.

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

Yeah, they're great!

I am really blown away.. He's doing an amazing job when he popped the hood I was kind of lost for words because of how nice it's coming along..

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

Thanks for the kind words, it's encouraging to me to get this finished.

[@pvdguitars2951]

I admire your courage Tom. Best of luck brother

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

Thanks! I appreciate that!

[@LindyGarage]

Realy cool project, a mercedes body would be nice, looking forward to see what you end up with

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

Thanks, I'm bummed about the Mercedes, it was a 450sel with all the glass and a title and only $500. It's not much good to anyone else because the interior is trashed and moldy. It's just way to long for me.

KZbin started me on part 3... I'm kinda regretting comming back to 1.....While I understand the fiscal constraints, this seems like its gonna be a lot of work to end up with what is still a 300K mile FWD camery..... I'm thinking that $300 car would have been a lot more fun turning laps in a Lemon's race.....Sorry to leave you a shitty comment... please prove me wrong

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

I'm sure you have the opinion of the majority out there, but that doesn't matter to me. I tried to explain my situation in the videos, but basically it's this or just sit on the couch and watch others build crown vic and miata swaps. I'd love to do that too, but these cars are what I have. I am sort of a scrap metal artist, and I feel that a few might find it interesting if I complete this. Thanks for your opinion, hopefully I'll get this done, and at least make you smile (or laugh).

[@AndyCPugh]

What an exciting project!

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

Thanks, I'm just looking for a unique car for fun, something with a patina.

[@Dark_LoreVT]

Buying a car you did the maintenance on. Smart move You know what youre getting into.

[@rtoweprojects]

Wow wish I could've found a car that runs and looks that great for $300. What I'm trying to figure out is if you put another body on this chassis you'll still have a car with 316,000 miles on it. 🤔🤷

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

Yes, that's true, and I mentioned that in the video. I can't afford a low mileage donor.

لماذا تكسر الزجاج الا تستطيع اخراجه قطعة واحدة؟؟

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

Yes, but it wouldn't be useful to anyone in my area.

[@MarkMcCluney]

Gosh, this looks like a lot of work Tom. I having a of trouble visualising the next step. Okay, onwards and upwards...

[@TomPetersonRefuseReuse]

I think this is easier than building a banjo from scratch.
