The roof chop continues... manipulating the doors to fit the new windshield angle 👏

The roof chop continues on this 5 window truck... we need to manipulate the door tops to fit. The windshield angle has changed completely so this could be tricky. Bad Chad has successfully chopped the roof WITHOUT having to cut the roof in half. This is officially the CLEANEST and FASTEST roof chop, ever. Thanks to the Dirty Devil's car club in Adelaide for having us! 👏

chop a roof in 3.5 hrs [still the required welding but roof is secured abck on] with a live crowd,unfamiliar equipment,no coathangers and to do it leaving no massive bare metal grinding...weld the rest of body then let it rust you;d never know walking past it in the street.. i truly enjoyed the chop series.5 star entertainment .TY to Jolene for 5 star video,we never missed a second of action

[@ROBByJONEs-2]

ATT Jolene.. this truck chop series is by far the best of the best in polularity,my opinion is the best youve both ever done..will you consider this type of production with new videos please

[@nevillestumbles4631]

As an Australian who doesn't have Chad's ability I really appreciate his candid and polite interaction with other Australians.

[@darwinfoster7420]

Chad I learned a long time ago if you slow down you will actually go faster . I'm 71 and an old timer told me this 20 years ago and he was right .

[@davidlongmore2689]

Total respect for you Chad 👍 To attempt a roof chop in front of a crowd takes some serious dedication and courage And you nailed it 👍👍 Well done buddy you are a true inspiration to many 👍👍😎😎

[@jeffchandler3390]

That's actually a perfect chop for this truck. It looks natural unlike a lot of them. Pulling it down at the front would have made it look unnatural

[@Matthew-x9d]

What a great hospitable group of people…And they call themselves, Dirty Devils! What a hoot. Great Chop, Chad and Jolene.

[@spamwagon]

I am definitely a fan of Chad and Jolene, more than anything, because of his ballsy "just go for it" attitude. Yes, there are some of his methods that I wouldn't use in my work, but this is HIS work and I think the biggest takeaway from this channel is "Do it however you want, but just DO it". If you don't like his methods, don't use 'em, come up with your own. But in any case, put on your big boy britches, go out in the garage and cut something! Weld something. Paint something. The feeling of pride in having done it yourself is huge, and is what they communicate on this channel!

[@michaelbristol6467]

Right get er done! 😉✌

[@rharrington828]

Chad's work helps people without a lot of money do it as reasonable as possible... and as easily as possible without a lot of tools..😊

I like. Fact. That is chopped. And. It. Looks. Stock. At the. Same. Time. Very. Cool ❤❤❤❤❤

[@SteveYankovich]

Looks great, nothing can ever be easy can it

[@scottnantais6866]

Those old 'pilot house era' Dodges/Fargos always have potential but the cabs always looked goofy compared to their contemporaries. Their roofline was always awkwardly high. Perfect candidate for a chop, should look great now. Glad he chose not to get to aggressive with the chop.

[@Roddyontheblock]

The door tops were going to be hard which ever way you did it , the curve started close to the base so it probably worked out for the better that he could shave it down and start on the correct angle, loved it all , don’t like the haters with big ego’s saying they are so much better , they have no idea how few men could work like that in that circumstance. Chad & Jolene are unique with their openness and work ethic on display in real time . Happy hard work is paying off for them 😂

[@scottzink3455]

I'm not quite sure how you equate doing something faster with being better at doing it. Just because someone does something faster doesn't mean they are better. It just means they are faster. Everyone works at their own pace. Some people will never be able to complete the same task in the same amount of time as someone else. This doesn't mean they aren't as good as the that person it just means they don't work as quickly. By all accounts the work you do looks very good and I admire how you are not afraid of tackling any issue. But, just because you are faster doesn't make you better. It makes you faster.

[@Charlee-w1u]

Practice makes perfect likely was his point. He works well under pressure.

[@michaelbristol6467]

Tell that to the guy paying $100 an hour. 😁✌

[@greybeard933]

Faster usually means sloppier in most cases. With that I understand Chad is going for it his way. Witch is fine too.

[@dougbarnes1681]

Being fast caused him to have three more welds than he should have had

[@BillMac69]

I'm betting you guys that think faster is not better have never worked in a body or repair shop getting paid 50/50 or 60/40 if your not getting faster everytime you need to stay under that shade tree..

Chad I would love to see you doba chop on a 68 to 72 VW beetle.. I have owned 21 beetle to karma ghia's boy of 80's and have seen so many guys different ways but would love to see how you and your beautiful Joleen would do it.. be great content.. just a friendly request. Found out today that gonna be wheelchair bound within a year so selling All my fabrication stuff so I live out my future projects through you and Joleens awesome channel. Thanks for that..God Bless and keep doing what you do!

[@colinperreault]

Save that little piece that is part of the curve that is sitting on the table so that when you go back home the guy that ownes the tfuck can redo your mess, just thinking about the problems associated wtith trying to weather seal those doors the way they are now cofigured

They adjusted it immediately after he burned through the truck body, first or second time he struck an arc.

[@jeffreygortz6146]

I'm sure there is alot of people talking trash about Chad's welding , I've been a car body and paint guy for decades , for those out there , " keyboard warriors" you have to understand using certain tools like the welding is that all welders , you have to get used to them , the welder is not the same as chad is used to , so you naysayers out there that don't like the way chad does things let's see how you can do what chad does , also as usual great work Jolene !!!!!

[@karlsheffield1166]

Your the best mate. You would make a great Aussie. You meet the criteria, you only have be here 2 weeks and your Australian. Cheers.

[@marvinlepping2879]

After the chop, I think of Heiser would look really good to reduce the size of the windshield to make it look more gangster sloped

[@snoopu2601]

Yeah I like the way the chop came out the front site's just a little lower. Yes the front window in my opion is right because the owner is planning on driving his truck and using it to tow other vehicles, so in the long run he'll be glad he can see out the front window and side mirrors

[@Knightryder628]

Happy Wednesday Bad Chad Nation. We Rule, thank y’all for what you do for the Channel. Peace and spread the Bad Chad.

Love Chad he can do s chop with out lots of Cuts he is Unique to his style so dont pull him done! Build him up he has made some amazing cars and Trucks

[@vinnyvrg]

I can not understand why they gave such a terrible rusted cab to work with. There are areas he is trying to weld that the metal is like swiss cheeze. A welder that is not the same as the one he uses at home. All eyes on his every move. I say he is doing a great jobe under more then one handicap. Well done Chad.

[@dougbarnes1681]

The metal looked pretty solid in the areas he was working in and what does the welder have to do with making the cuts on the top?

[@rorylackey7116]

Yes, and as someone who suffers from low back pain I had to learn working on hands and knees on the floor is not the way to go if it can be avoided. But like my pop used to say “some people live and learn, some people just live”, Chad is definitely the later!

[@multitablez7825]

My old man said to always wear ear protection when using a grinder. Shouldn't he be using it to avoid ear problems later in life.

Just because someone can change an engine faster than someone else, does not mean they did it better. A lot of the time when you do things fast you make mistakes, then you spend more time fixing the mistakes, than you would have done if you took your time and did it right the first time. Work smarter not faster.

[@markplant2184]

Awesome, Thanks

[@aaronmycar9166]

I am no expert. I do not have anything like your experience. So a genuine question. Rather than the hard cut in the window frame of the doors, would getting the correct shape be easier by cutting multiple triangular slots, bending the frame to close them up and then welding, like one might do to bend wood, or perhaps square tube rather than the hard cuts made here? Maybe that's not suitable but I'm curious.

[@michaelbristol6467]

You have to take out the 3 to 4 inches that it dropped. 😉✌

[@Rob1970s]

Your right . Absolutely right . Cutting very small triangular shaped slots would have been a far better way to do it . Working on wood is very similar to steel . Measure twice cut ONCE .

[@aaronmycar9166]

​@@Rob1970s, thanks. I guess i just figured that cutting further down to cater for the drop, rather than in the curve of the window frame would make it so it could be pushed forward to match what was done with the pillar. I'm only learning and not about to chop/drop. I'm about to extend a cabin by 6" to create myself some pain instead. 😂

I think it would be better if you did lower the front more.. The way it's setting now. he couldn't tell that it was actually chopped at all here. with more of what you call mad dog We would look better. like a custom job. Now it just looks like a truck.

And also for the people saying that the roof needed to be chopped more , I'm a fabricator myself , in my opinion I think chad was at his limit , can you imagine trying to fit those window frames if the front of the roof was lowered more than already , the geometry was at its limit , great call chad !!!!!

Chad slow down, the curve on the top of the door at the front never changed, your cut should be below the curve, not right through it, that is why you have a bad slope match with gap that yoy now hahe to fill
