Hot Rods Chris Rusch's 1930 sedan build with Jimmy Shine, Bob Bleed, Kyle Yucum, Mike Wagner

All tube chassis fabrication, metal shaping, bead rolling, shrinking and stretching, grinding, shearing and bending of the metal was performed on Baileigh industrial equipment. The incredibly talented group of builders include Chris Rusch, Jimmy Shine, Bob Bleed, Mike Wagner, Kyle Yocum, Chris Pribbernow, Troy Temme, Dylon Rusch and Mark Gerish. Filmed by Shane Henderson

 

Pretty amazing what talented fabricators can do with the right equipment! Drive train may be a little OT, but I bet it's gonna' be a screamer. Bring on episode II! Thanks for posting, Shane!

 

VERY COOL! one of these days I will make it to one of your classes and learn to do that.

 

Actually came into the shop to work today, but sometimes the computer is really interesting, and that was pretty outstanding. Thanks.

 

Me too!

 

While the drive train might be OT, this is a great example of hot rodders thinking outside the box.

 

Great video. What craftsmen. I love watching the power hammer and the English wheel. Sweet!

 

Thanks! Great to see the equipment in use, look forward to the hood build and gloss paint. Bob

 

Nice to have the nice tools to work with! I manage with the basic stuff from Harbor Freight and a Miller Syncrowave 200 TIG machine. If my geezer memory is any good I think I'm on my 5th "Chung-ho" H-F 4 1/2" grinder.... I start with a template made out of a Coca-Cola box and lay it out with a Sharpie marker & go to work on it with a slitting disc. Throw on some nice radii with a flap wheel & it looks Comercially made.... Hot rodding is a good pastime!

 

good watch for sure!

 

Thanks for the great watch, can't wait to see more of these videos.

 

Watching kyle and Mike make those quarters with the hammer was amazing.

 

Can't argue that!

 

Great stuff. Got to watch it again.

 

I had been thinking about doing the same thing to my rear wheel wells and quarters. I love seeing master craftsmen at work!

 

Great stuff!

That's some neat stuff.

Running that huge powerhammer with a 1/2 assed hold on the sheet and bracing it between the shoulder and jugular made my asshole pucker

 

making that quarter on the powerhammer was cool.

with that frame hanging down it looks like it ran over a ladder. very bizzare way to do things

 

Great video!
Can anyone give more info on the thinking behind the shape of the primaries - looks like a sort of expansion chamber an inch or two from the ports?

 

Great video, that is the stuff I like to watch. No drama just some guys building a nice car.

 

BYTCHIN !!!

Here is the new floor structure for the Model A, will be welded to the body shortly. Turned out real good, and it's super strong!

The project has been pretty much on hold for most of the summer, although we are making some progress on the induction.

Any details on the removable roof centre design?
