    Thanks Jimmy, I was just about to post it up. It's on the first post now.

    Believe it or not, film making is just a hobby for Stephen. He's actually a tattoo artist and owns his own tattoo shop/studio. He has done an incredible job on the video so far though...I don't think it could have been done any better.

    He's also got a bitchin' Hemi-powered '29 Coupe in the works that I built the chassis for...more on that later.

    Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the thinking process is a big part of what I do. There's no handbook for grafting a '34 Ford windshield area to a Model A Coupe, so it definitely takes a whole lot of planning and careful thought before making any cuts.


    Thanks guys!

    Just found this thread actually, watched the first 5 parts. Inspiring stuff, makes me want to get out in the shop and do something.

    Can't wait for the next part.

    Absolutely amazed by Your work Mr. Bass. I've followed your builds for a few years now and am blown away time and time again. It's so refreshing to see the caliber of work that a humble, hard working one man shop can put out. By far some of my all time favorite Hot Rods to date.

    What was that tool you were using at around 9:10 on part 5? There was a weird end on it and it was like you were hitting it or ......

    Never seen one.

    So after done the swap on both a 28-29 and a 30-31 witch one was harder. I'm going to be doing my 29 one of these days what year would you use for a 29. Are the headers the same from 32-34?

    Man... what a tease! I wanted to see the a pillar after the weld was ground down! :D It's tough for me to know that this car is much further ahead than the vid shows. I'm the type of person that'll read ahead to find out.

    Again, great work, Brian.

    I'm really enjoying these videos! Watched part 5 before going to work this morning and 6 right before bed. Hope you have a lot more because they're really well done. Not only informative and entertaining, but kinda therapeutic. I wish they'd get picked up on a big network level. Well I say that...hate to risk ruining a good thing. Anyway...maybe 7 well be up by the time coffee is ready :)

    Very inspirational, also very depressing to be reminded of ones hack nature.
     
  26. This is like a drug always waiting for the next fix. All free up until the final installments, and BAM admission isn't free anymore. More, More.
