in this movie we get to cut out and replace the rusted rear corner of this abandoned 1965 ford econoline pickup, lots of rust and cutting but I think its coming out great.

Where did you find those patch panels?
Fascinating to watch an expert at work. You make it look deceptively easy! Great stuff
Always watch how far you stretch the tape when you pull it from the roll. That will allow it to curve when you're laying it down. Pull it out to the length that you need and gently lay it on , so you can follow along your line.
Hello! Where did you source the rear quarters? I’m on the hunt for a pair. Thanks!
Your doing great my friend would of had u working on my 70 Mach fast back with me in a heart beat it a art and u have the beart for it i think it's fantastic it will be a one of a kind just like mine was and manny more out there
i LOVE that orange Econoline !
This had already been asked, but I haven't seen an answer. Where did you get those replacement panels thanks
I’m looking for the corner panels for a 64 econoline. Where did you get them? I can’t find em.
Like your videos I am looking for rear bottom panels and have not been able to find them for my 64 Econoline can you tell me where you got yours you can email me at mercurymonarch if you want. Any help in finding these would be greatly appreciated Thank You
Who makes replacement panels for the early Econoline ? Thanks
Those things have body seam sealer everywhere.
Back in the day you had to have your name and address even on personal trucks.
I think ots a good idea to were gloves when working with any metal you could slip and cut yourself and that isn't good you need your hands so you can continue to do projects etc .
The way those panels look I would say that the manufacturer probably stamps the panels, maybe make minor adjustments and then send them out the door. I don't know if anyone will read this but what company did you get the panels from? I want to know which manufacturer to avoid if possible.
I'm glad the patch panels I got for my 1997 f150 were not bad like that
Please! more Econoline vids!

dude……………….no buck knifes needed in bodywork………………….lol
hell that piece you ordered was terrible workmanship
I’ll tell you one thing you are you know what you’re doing and you don’t get no hurry. Are you fantastic work and you’re unbelievable you got a Lotta knowledge in your head but when you get my age is going to start going away Mine did I sure hope you don’t happen to you brother
The funny car:the littlered wagon was based on that nodel
What's up
Hi
Always interesting watching guys figure out bodywork. MUSTIE has enough general knowledge to figure it out as he goes.
geez,your right,that new panel is bloody rough
The frightened frightening full fumbling functional popcorn coincidentally prepare because angora aditionally match past a foregoing attempt. accessible, disagreeable olive
That wheel well seam you can re bend it, with a ninety degree block of steel used as a dolly that way you can get a sharper bend in that seam that has a shitty curved bend instead of a true right angle bend near the gas tank, which will give you a better overall line.
Must be a after market parts, when you buy autobody aftermarket parts, especially stamped in china they are brutal. You always have to rework them and it can be a real pain. Your not going to get them to all fit right in one go, you have to fit and weld in one piece at a time working from the front, working your way back. that way you be able to work them better and you'll end up with a better looking job..u did the right thing put in a smaller piece of the cab corner in and btw your doing an overall great job by the way.
what is the plan for the radiator? we can not find one for our 61 and fuel tank conversion how did it work out?

I don’t know how many times Mustie says “you’re not even looking†when I’m turned away lol.
For how long, 10 seconds, a minute or something else.
I'm a firm believer of that motto, cut twice and measure once, that's why if you want something done right, don't ask me to do it.
My dad worked stevens paper mill as a to watch every thing
My mom used to work torrington needle and old colone envalop
