When is a gate a gate? Project NO-MAD Part 54

I know this episode is short (even for me LOL),but I was too excited to make you all wait another day to see where we're at.Is it finally a gate?

[@paulstewart2672]

Doug you never disappoint, loving these short but progress filled videos👍

[@DOYLEMASTERS]

Great job Doug you are doing a fine job. Keep up the good work.

[@xdrag4854]

Congratulations Doug! That is looking great. You are getting it a lot done. Awesome job, keep on rolling along. Steve

[@marioa1272]

Good morning Doug , excellent work getting that tailgate to swing . It's a small but important victory, I'm very happy for you.

[@greggsvintageworkshop8974]

VERY NICE Doug! The tailgate swings EXCELLENT. You have to be really proud that you built that thing basically from scratch. I/m very impressed.

[@WindRider1]

“Hay hay hay hay, and they said it couldn’t be done ,…..that was exciting.” That was a classic quote from the Master Craftsman. Great work Doug. Yay for you.

[@johns9993]

BIG accomplishment Doug ,Well done !

Makes my thing of the song Swingin' by John Anderson Glad I stopped by to see you. Great progress. I like the tip about compressed air to keep the welding cool. 🎶 Yeah, and we were swingin' (swingin') Yeah, just a-swinging (swingin') Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sang I can't believe I'm out here on the front porch in the swing A-swingin' (swingin) 🎶

[@harrystevenson7098]

Awesome job Doug on that gate looks amazing great craftsmanship out of old pieces and parts.

[@jeffdavis5704]

Awesome that gate is working great, keep up the good work Doug.

[@gregeverson4445]

Milestone!!! Looking good. Can’t wait to see the skin back in place.

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

You could have the special edition T-shirt with the kitties faces looking out the back windows behind you. The caption below the logo might say Doug, White Toes, and 2 Nomads

[@RH-ry2zi]

Great job that is a great accomplishment Doug

[@BigBlock-wf3mh]

Con’gate’ulations, it works! …. Cheers Doug.. 🥂🍺

[@DavidNolan-mu1rw]

It is so good to see you working on your 57 I like to work on my 57s but it Ben to cold and snowing here in Pennsylvania so I'm doing the next best thing is watch you work on yours you are great to watch you and your little buddies working on your 57

[@brendagaunce8757]

Gate looks like no binding or tough spots to force through. Doug take a bow and feel proud of your work. I think that 's what your cat was telling you. Great job great video.

[@kevinsukdolak5007]

Well if you can't find a name for this project you can call it the black cat. You can either paint a black cat on each front fender OR you can paint the car black and write the black cat in green on each fender!

[@johnbergen9663]

Great procedure using the air gun to cool the metal after welding!

[@MrMktMaster]

Wow! Works smooth and seems solid! Can’t wait to see this gate finished!

[@kevinwilliams7979]

Wahooooo awesome great job 👏 👍 😀

[@Joseph-u3t2n]

Nice to see you got that gate swinging. Can't wait to see it with the skin on it. Keep up the good work and videos.

[@billterry9996]

Great job on the gate

[@dennisostler9613]

Congrats Doug, your skills are off the charts! Can’t wait to see it skinned and in primer. Keep em coming bud 🤙

[@gregpomeroy2149]

Yay for Doug👏 You could tell when the video started this was going to be good

[@Hanlonsgarage]

Nice job Doug! You will make it come together!

[@kenpatrick8268]

Nice work Doug🤗

[@rats56]

slowly but surely eventually it gets done, amazing what can be done, thanks for showing us

[@monadking2761]

It works, too. Amazing job, and well done. I was really feeling unhinged for a while the tailgate was saying. lol.

[@deeblevins516]

Excellent work on the gate!

[@ChrisJEllis]

[@glenndavis5101]

[@waynebernier1061]

Gate swings smoothly, nice to see. Another peace of mind part.

[@garysgarage.2841]

It's the little victories that win the war. Looking good.

[@thecenturion9277]

Looking good bro, Another CATACLYSMIC update!!

[@joeharrington595]

Win win, Doug! Looks great

[@pastorgeorgemorey09]

Looking good Doug!! I’ll be glad to see it with the skin on. I’ve got a hospital stay coming up so I’ll try to keep tabs on how it’s going, but the hospital thing is a few days away yet. Good going! Keep on keeping on my friend.

[@charleshewitt3026]

It's really coming together my friend,I knew you could do it! Blessings from the Philippines

[@bobblangland9031]

Nice work, Doug!

[@paulmorris273]

Tailgate looks good , another step in the process

[@longjohn77]

Good to see you and the cats have been hard at work. Amazing job with that gate!

[@timharris6835]

It's lookin' good Doug, tail gates are a sought after item on a lot of classic wagons upper and lower, here in Australia early Holden ( GM) wagon and panel van stuff is hard to find and usually not cheap, therefore I fully understand and appreciate your effort in rebuilding this one, I hate to think what a good one costs if you could find one.

[@JimMayson]

I think what the cat was trying to say is that the gate fits purrrrfect.

[@richardsmith-qy6vl]

Great job doug now your getting some where.

[@cobyburrow9339]

Cool! Works good, and when it's all together, it should be solid

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

It's gonna be a little harder for the cats to go through the Nomad. You need a picture of Nomad sticking his head out the window of the driver's seat. Nomad in a Nomad. Take care

[@lewisanderson1521]

Lookin good.

[@HoosierGarage]

man its come a long way! great work!

[@Matthew-x9d]

You did it. That’s a milestone accomplishment. Congratulations boss-man.

[@edwardmaney3453]

Awesome job Doug working like it should. Got both inspectors checking the tail gate out.

[@shanewright6958]

[@henryjewell3900]

Fabrication magic!

[@SteveDuce-jw9zr]

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

Just starting can't wait

[@timbarry5080]

I would call that gate done and paint it.

[@timbrown6459]

Can't Wait to see the gate I'm full swing

[@zacharymunroe270]

I totally agree... wicked Doug

[@pattyj11]

Look forward to your videos if it can be done you'll do it

[@kermitmawyer1743]

Yes😅😅😅😅

[@homotorsports]

Awesome

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

A project that nobody has attempted, that would be a must watch, could be to convert a tri-5 into an electric car. I often wonder what will happen when you are not allowed to use gasoline for the cool Cars

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

Is The next episode going to end up with the outer skin of the tailgate going to force you to do 3 or 4 filler, sanding, more filler, more sanding and primer? . Your finishing skills are masterful and are you also skilled at painting? I'm thinking that you are. People who can do creative projects and also play musical instruments and are able to draw T-shirt design logo's are what I consider myself to be a member of. I've done bondo and sanding in past years and always wanted to learn to weld , but never did. At least I can live it through your work . Thanks again and take care

[@ImthePaulshouldnotbeallowedtod]

I Wish I still had a cool car . All I ride is bikes and I still think I'm 18 at 65. I got a mini chopper for 20 bucks that I would like to get going. My buddy said that it was running when he parked it,a couple of years ago. I totally scrubbed it and shined off the rust. It takes gas, has a key and he just gave me the two batteries for it. I looked it up online and the only comp that I could find was about $900. And only 20 Canadian dollars, what's that?, about 16 dollars in American money?

[@r.n.6515]

Looking good. The bits are coming together.

[@CrazyWillie01]

Buddy did any of my pics make it three

[@CrazyWillie01]

Threw

[@Jesse_gc]

We all knew you could do it with the cat helpers anything is possible good job
