Tony, I just can't wait till your videos drop. Love your work. "I'll stick around."
it never gets old watching you do the same things over and over. Its like therapy for me.
You might not be so young anymore, but you aren't old either. You've still got many decades ahead of you yet. I see that Gene Winfield is closing his shop at age 96. What a great run he's had. Hope we can all do the same.
Every time I watch you get into those tight spaces my body starts to ache . I was a Boilermaker welder for 45 years and have gotten into small spaces that I was thinking I will not be able to get out. I get these vivid flash backs from work and dream I still building pressure vessels. I guess for some people they will think this would be hell. Cheers
What seems like a lifetime ago I was an asme ix welder on petrochemical plants. Then moved into piping design rather than actually building it. There's something very satisfying about looking at a plant, with all its pressure vessels, heat exchangers and all the spaghetti joining it together and knowing you were a part of the team that made that happen. To me it's a work of art, better than any painting hanging in an art gallery, maybe even on a par with one of Fitzees cars 😊 I think we, the tradesmen of the world, should be very proud of our contribution.
Did some floors today. Said to myself more than once, "What would Fitzee do?"
Tony - always great fabbin' !! You are the first I've seen to stretch before rolling, Which makes sense and makes the panel have no oil canning fight when installing! When [and always] Tony's experience makes sense, it works !!! Love the highest quality workmanship with hand made equipment, anyone can do this as I do the same. But I'm laid up with ankle surgery so I am always looking to learn more from experience!! Me at 61yrs thanks Tony
🥓
Nice work! That large section with the six ribs reminds me of the "boot" of a VW "Thing".. ha!
Very nice work, not only am I looking forward to seeing the wheel tubs going in but the ramp is going to be awesome. Hope to see that work also
The Tips are always good Tony. Thanks again for sharing your skills with us.👍👍❤
You da Man, Tony. I've learned much valuable lessons from You . 😊
It’s been awhile since I’ve had a project in the garage but this morning I brought home a 1972 Monte Carlo and I can’t wait to get at it! Actually a super nice body, not much metal work to do at all but what there is I’m actually excited to do 👍
I feel for you Tony it’s tough getting in and out of those places we never even thought about when we were younger lol but your getting it done mate slowly slowly old crusty is taking great shape ! Nice job fella 👍
The tips were great and that was some fabricating niceness. The panels came out great and putting a crown on them certainly stiffened them up. It looks factory made. Even Peanut cmae over and gave it a cat scan. She agrees.
I can imagine it's like working in a jungle gym inside that cage but you pulled it off in great fashion, beautiful work as always Tony 👏 ❤
Nice work Tony, Crusty is coming together really well. Thanks for sharing. Be good and stay safe. 👍
The first wheeling machines were developed in England in the late 1890s. Craftsmen in the UK preferred using an English wheel, rather than the mechanical hammers which were popularly used for shaping metal on the continent, as they are kinder to the metal and they also help it to retain it's integrity.
Anyone else crazy enough to listen to fitzee at 2x speed?
Floor is coming along great, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Hi Tony. Nice job as always on the rear and trunk floor sections. There are really a lot of parts to make when you are building a car from scratch!
A true fabricator is all I can call you Fitzee and yes Sir the tips were good ...Till next time👍👍👍
Looks like the shop inspector is back from winter break. It must be starting to warm up in Newfoundland now. It's the opposite here in Queensland Australia, where it's cooling down now. But it's raining again after a week without rain when I could finally cut the grass that was a foot high because of all the rain we've had this year.
Hey Tony, two videos in a day, one on each channel. Nice and thanks. Hi Peanut! Until next time. 👍💪✌
Another great video. Keep them coming. I really look foward to them.
Looks fantastic. This is a big job a lot of imagination and creativity to figure out how to make these pieces work together. It’s a tremendous learning opportunity for all of us. Thanks
The fabricator you are makes it look so easy, great job.😊😊😊😊
Always enjoy watching your videos, your fabrications are outstanding. Keep up the excellent work
Ah The Fitz Meister creating Art. Thank you Tony. 😊
Very nice, your bead roller is working out great, those beads add a great touch.
This car has come a long ways Tony you've done quite a bit of work to it thus far, Your just about there! when it comes to the metal work anyhow, but nevertheless. You'll enjoy this car once you get to take her to the strip! that's for sure. Looking forward to seeing those days as well. Cheers.
I do enjoy your work! I always learn a trick or two. And Im over 60 so I well know how projects that look pretty easy, 20 years ago, now kick my butt! I do it anyway because I love building and fixing.
A hot turkey dinner with all the trimmings and 2 back to back videos from Fitzee, how good have I got it.. Awesome clean and tidy professional work carried out, flawlessly done Tony, it's time to call it Crusty 2.0
Jeez, eh. Anybody would think you've done that kinda thing before, lol. Good job.
I’ve been checking myself for the next one and the next. Totally feel the same with “I’m not young anymore”😂. Do you feel pressure to get content out or does it motivate you to finish jobs. Teaching skills is a gift. I feel on another channel, free tools to “try out” etc. God bless utube….my favourite channel, The tips, always great. Thank you.
Just love your work i learn a lot from waching your video tks
Lots of great pointers on the bead rolling and the fab process. Beautifull finished product ,thank you for taking the time.
Another great video. time to go looking for some more metal.
hi Fitzi love your work and techniques
Another great video Tony, good tips and tricks
Good job tedious work you have great patience.
Coming together nicely- looks “Factrie”
Really cool fitz.I bett you fell good .I fell good just seeing what you are doing. Thanks for tips .Has helped me on my project a lot.
Other great video. I know you got hours and hours in for that video u made us. Thanks for taking us along on crusty
As usual. Absolutely fascinating!
I was waiting to see the three-colored beast at the very end :)
Well done Well done A happy and blessed New Week Greetings from Germany Yours Frank Galetzka
A sheet metal wizard you are Tony
You've been going berserk with templates lately!!!! I remember once you said you don't make templates. But you couldn't have done this job without templates, so they were necessary. It's a case of using them when you need to!
Thank you, learning by watching.
love the way u teach ur a legend
The Steely Wrangler strikes (an arc) again 😎
Coming along nicely 😁🇬🇸👍
Nice one!!! Getting older SUX!!!! I'm right there with ya.
Thanks Tony! 👍😎

best channel on youtube👍
Awesome job Tony!
Great work as always Tony. On a sad note I'm sure we're all shocked to here you are running out of recycled shelving
The tips were good.
Good work Tony!
Looks great Tony
Super nice I'm digging it... great job as always fitzee....💯🙂👍🙏🏁
Nice work again Tony! Look foreward to the next one.
The tips were good!
Looking really good👍
Great video Tony 😊
looks great
Thanks Fitzee!
Brilliant 👍
Looking good 👍
great job
at the end of the project, I'd like to see how many hours you have invested on that project., at glance, I see over a thousand hours. That will be the killer toyoya of your area very good video you are truly a handy man.
Tony, when are going to add on to your shop? You look like you're going to need it when you're done adding that rack.😉
I only got two hands and a 3 bay shop. Think the project will go before I add on. Lol
😊❤
Crusty ain't crusty no more 😂👌
Nice Work. #STAYSAFE #PHILLYPHILLY 🇺🇸
Das Wicked!
cool
i would love to have this car as a daily driver with just a little 500 hp
👍👍😎👍👍
I do want your bead roller 😟
Hey Fitzee, I changed the name of my high amp sheetmetal beads vid to; “FITZEE WAS JOKING”, cuz there’s absolutely people out there dumb enough to think you recommended those settings😅😅
Hahaha
Tony I love your work I done body work when I was younger now almost 64 just work for myself I would love to have your body hammer with the chezel like to know how many licks has it maid keep on doing great
Hey Tony, got a question I was wondering why you didn’t put an X bace in the rear Is it because you wanted a streetcar and didn’t want all the bars in the back window
Yep. The X in drag racing was to help with twist. Today they have anti roll bars and they do the work way better than a X
I'm seeing that the body is welded solid onto the frame without rubber isolation. How will you deal with vibration?
You won't. Motor solid mounted as well. Certain comforts you will have to give up in a build like this
Can you please tell me how much and what you use to thin the International epoxy?
Just a automotive thinners. Depends on what my plans are. Doing heavy body work itbe like 20%. Enough to make it spray from a gun. If it's a final costing would thin it from 30 to 50% agian depending on what I'm after

BTW I finally found your old video on this and noted you mixed it 4 - 1. Just a heads up they recommend 5.67 - 1 on the info sheet on the internet. I will use 5.5 - 1 Thanks again for your quick reply.
By the way what"s the meaning behind Fitzee, I should probably know this by now but I dont.
Last name is Fitzpatrick grown up there was 4 Tony's on my street. So I was called Fitz and as time went on it became Fitzee
Nice job but I believe all complicated I want see step by step name a cars and put number we can see one by one till end I am confused to find it
There is play lists for these cars.
Don’t try to improve … make the same mistakes again … got it!
That sounds like sarcasm. Lol
@@fitzeesfabrications More like a convenient excuse to stay on the couch and not go into my garage!
Tip are good and until next time!! Enjoy Tony!
Cat Fab inspector always shows up at strange times…😾
