I remember comparing Pappy's Belvedere's rear window to the neighbour's stripper Chevelle Deluxe's rear window. I was impressed with how much more style was built into the Plymouth's rear glass, lines and bodywork around it. Never did I think how hard it would be to replace that metal below the rear glass 50+ years later. The way you plan when to put the car's weight down on the ground impresses the heck out of me. I know I'd forget to consider that. A lot of these B-body unibodies disappeared in front of our eyes after a few Canadian rust belt, salt filled Winters up here, back then. That B-body is going to be structurally sound by the time you're finished.👍 Malcolm Ottawa Valley

It’s amazing how much these old unibodies flex! I’ll be putting the rear suspension back on when it comes time to do the quarters also. Having it at ride height is key to making a lot of the metal fit 👌.

Thanks for the information on the window corners! I'll be looking forward to seeing those and the quarters work together. Have fun, be safe, God bless.

Nice work. Excellent note on fitting the out wheel house to the quarters and not to the inner Wheel house.

It makes welding so much easier when you can stand inside the trunk.

Need your hour long videos I love them!!! I wanted to ask, do you always drill out your spot welds completely? I've seen guys only drill out the surface of the spot weld, does it make a difference?

@rustbucketrestos6511 2 ай бұрын

Absolutely. In this case the metal underneath was bad so it didn’t matter. In areas where I want to save the metal under I’ll hit them real light with a rotabroach or a 3/8 drill & air chisel the rest.

@general23cmp 29 күн бұрын

What is your go-to way to avoid rust in pinch welds? Do you just use weld thru primer and then seam seal, do you inject epoxy, or do you epoxy the whole edge and just weld thru primer small areas for the welds? Thanks.

@buzzbussian3376 Ай бұрын

Nice job, U S Car Tool has a inner rocker reinforcement.......have you ever used them on this type of repair since you were in that far or when would you consider using them if you would actually need them? Just asking because I have a '70 B-Body convertible. Thanks, Buzz.

@rustbucketrestos6511 Ай бұрын

I have not used their inner rockers but If they are anything like the rest of their chassis stiffening goodies, I bet they are great!

@general23cmp Ай бұрын

Question please: If I want to protect the inside of a rocker or another panel, like inside a cowl, can I just epoxy it? Or does something need to go over the epoxy?

@rustbucketrestos6511 Ай бұрын

Epoxy if you can reach. If not, use cavity wax.

@general23cmp Ай бұрын

@ Thanks. I just didn’t know if it was sufficient or required something over it. I can get to the areas easily right now.

@rustbucketrestos6511 Ай бұрын

Then I’d say clean it & epoxy!

@general23cmp Ай бұрын

@ Thanks. I have some good SPI in a gallon container, but have you ever tried the air activated aerosol epoxy?

@ChrisL-w2v Ай бұрын

Great content. Been watching since you were in Ohio. I have one question...do you ever finish a car?

@rustbucketrestos6511 Ай бұрын

Haha well yes! The Satty is finished! These jobs for customers help pay for the other builds. On a side note, have you checked out my merch shop? If you’d like to see them finished sooner, buy some merch & help support the channel.
