Bodyman and painter here- also raced/maintained sprint cars for 25 years. Not many people can do basically everything to restore a $200-300k car. I am extremely impressed with this guy!
As a retired 4X ASE Master Technician, I really appreciate the research that you had to do in order to ensure that you were using factory techniques to replicate the look. It shows your enthusiasm to be the best restorer you can be. Well done!
This man is such a perfectionist and the knowledge he possesses is amazing. That Shelby is going to look even better than the factory build.
A masterclass on how you do it correctly. He is an absolute artist at the height of his craft. Anyone who restores mustangs or Shelbys should watch this series.
Great series! The good things are: I am learning a lot. Interesting commentary. And no distracting background music! No bad things.
This guy is just AMAZING......what a craftsman.....i'm hooked on this restoration, Jerry. Great work
Appreciate your comment and agree.
@@thewriter2549is the red oxide ppg dp74 ? Looks close if not. Dp74 is the original stuff. Haven’t bought any in 3/4 years. Since I shot the last underside , which was a 68 Dearborn car , wouldn’t shock me if they stop making it. It’s the best there is.
Niesamowity? 😆😆😆 Niesamowite smarowanie uszczelniaczem na gołe blachy i to palcem 😆😆😆. Wyczyszczone, wyspawane blachy zabezpieczasz wpierw podkładem epoxy. Później uszczelniasz złącza, spawy, zakładki blach. Konserwujesz podłogę, wnęki kół, slody progów, wnętrza tylnych błotników. Na to dajesz podkład albo tlenkowy, albo akrylowy, a na to lakier. Profile zamknięte i wnętrza progów zapsikujesz woskiem do profili zamkniętych. Wtedy masz zabezpieczone i wilgoć do blach nie dojdzie.

This guy is doing a great job, he explains why he is doing it the way that does. I am about at the same point in restoring my 67 Shelby. We changed the way we were doing some of the work to the way he does it. Thanks again for another great video.
That is good to hear. Thanks for your comment. We'd like to hear more about your Shelby like color and how it is equipped.
This is Jedi level knowledge of the Shelby. Just incredible
A rotisserie off frame restoration is the only proper way to do a car or truck it’s absolutely professional what this guy is doing totally respect him.
Dang Jerry this is just fascinating to see and watch how he explained every single action he takes to seal this Shelby. And listing to him refer to the word "Concourse" has got to be music to your ears haha! Thank you for sharing this experience with your subscribers it's quite an honor actually.
Thanks for taking your time and kind words.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video series. I was born in 1957, in 1973 my first car was a1967 Ford Mustang Coupe 6 cyl, 3 speed in Red with Black bucket seat interior. Have been in love with that year Mustang ever since, & the 1967 Shelby has been in my heart since the movie Bullitt, with Steve McQueen in 1968. I still go back and watch that amazing chase scene over & over. AND MAN is that guy working on your car talented !!! THANKS. I now live in a mobile home park for 55 year olds plus folks, & in this park alone there is a 66 Mustang coupe in Red, a 1954 Chevy Coupe in Red & White, & a 1964 Buick Skylark Special 2 door coupe. 🤗
As great as this video series is so far, I absolutely cannot wait to see the finished product. Thanks to guys like him restoring the classics!!!! The attention to detail is phenomenal and well deserved.
When finished, we want to show Jason driving the car, initially, as he gets it running, followed by the brothers that sold me the car, and Dan Bailey, that found the car.
What a craftsman. I can’t wait to see it up close and personal.
I’ve really enjoyed these videos. I seldom watch the long ones but these kept me glued. This 67 is from my era. I’m 74 and couldn’t afford the mustangs but my first car in 1968 was a 1960 Falcon 😂, but, found a mustang that had caught fire and totaled and it had a 289 HP with a 4 speed trany that went into the falcon rear ended and all. Sleeper for sure. Never done any racing but played with it a lot. It was funny when I saw someone working on side of the road and I’d bark tires through 3rd and got funny looks cause everyone knew a falcon couldn’t pull your hat off your head. Drove it for several years and parked it on my dads farm and younger brother played with. Wasn’t supposed to but dad sold it to a crusher. Already had the trans and rear end out and gave it to a friend that restored mustang’s.
*Jerry!* It's always a pleasure to watch a true craftsman performing their work. The combination of experience, ability and especially *care* is so rare these days, sadly. The difference in the level of effort between this sort of "lifetime" work vs. the typical body shop collision repair is *huge* and why it costs so dang much! (There's many similarities between that Ford of yours and equivalent Mopar unibody construction of the day, Jerry 🙂 ). Looking forward to the next episode! - Ed on the Ridge
Jerry, it's been a pleasure so far, watching your baby come to life. Looking forward to seeing her finished. You have an excellent set of hands & eyes, doin your ol girl justice.
Yes, and bringing back this car made me want to find another one to bring back. I didn't think it would be so fun.
@@thewriter2549 I'm looking forward to getting my 67 Shelby as well. Even if it takes 20 years to restore.
He is a master at car restoration. Jerry definitely pick the right guy for this restoration!!
I would not have bought the barn find 1967 Shelby except I had Jason to do the restoration.
I love watching this professional, his knowledge is unquestionably perfect. So enjoyable to watch.
Coating all of the metal inside and out is the kind of attention to detail I like to see.
i worked on these 60s 70s cars back in that day i saw these cars coming off the truck at the dealer i worked at, these cars were a car when they went to throw a way cars i was sick never was the same i was a body man, very good work young man you would have liked those days.
Incredible workmanship by an experience craftsman. What knowledge and experience he has. Just amazing to watch and hear him explain the different aspects of a great restoration. I can't imagine what he charges an hour, but his workmanship is worth it...
What a lucky man you are Jerry to have such a craftsman restoring your car. Just phenomenal work!
Yes, without which I wouldn't have bought the Shelby because I could not have gotten it restored.
I started watching the restoration from the barn find to the turntable. The gentleman you chose to do the restoration is absolutely a master in his craft. His attention to detail is incredible. I am looking forward to the next video in the series. I agree that it’s great that there is no background music because I want to hear what you and the restorer have to say!
Thanks for sharing this with us Jerry
sure, very welcome
I wish there were more videos of this guy...these videos of him, just the last 4, have answered over a dozen questions I have on my mustang restoration.
I have been thinking about making part 5 and on as subscription only for maybe 5 bucks per month and add one part per month. Views are much lower on tech articles, so I lose money doing this work - expenses exceed income here. Each segment is long and takes over 100 hours to edit. Part 4 took 3 weeks and 130 or so hours to edit. I won't sacrifice quality for speed. What do you think? Would you subscribe?
Sure will be a beautiful looking Shelby when she's done.
Thanks so much for sharing this whole process with us Jerry. So happy for you…this is such a special Shelby. Your videos & narrations are always so top notch and bring us so much joy.
Thanks for watching and understanding. I spend most of my time editing the video. This was 100 hours or so.
is the car done? hope there is more to come@@thewriter2549
Verry cool seeing your car come together .
It still doesn't feel like mine, maybe because I have yet to drive it.
Wow! What meticulous detail this guy does! Very impressive!
I resto-modded a 69 Mach 1 back in 2016,I did basically everything you've done here...Nice job..
I commented before the video, OMGAWD was this an incredible video to watch, such great detail to everything. Thank you for sharing
Oh, that was you? I saw that, thanks!
Lookin good my friend.
Amazing resto
Cant wait to see the results Jerry!! I watch your channel just for this build!!!
Do you have any ideas why Part 1 and Part 2 have been popular, but Part 3 and Part 4 have been watched far less and for far less time per video? I am guessing a smaller group of people want to see more detail, which is why I slowed down on these.
@@thewriter2549 any updates on your restoration project? I'm looking forward to Part 5.
Coming along very nicely.
Thanks 👍 We have a half dozen or more of these to go.
The restoration is looking good. I’ve never noticed the middle line that goes 1/2 down the roof. Wow
That line continues down the fastback's rear window.
This is the definition of professionalism 👍🇺🇸 Well done sir 👍
very nice work this painter restorer is very knowledgeable and informative in laymen's terms he knows his shit it was very enjoyable watching this car getting treated to a mani pedi this afternoon
Fantastic video! We really appreciate the two of you giving us this outstanding content!
Thanks for recognizing how much hard work this is.
It's looking good Jerry!
Thanks, body work and paint is next.
That car is sweet !finding the right body work guy is as challenging as finding the car
You got that right.
A true craftsman
Fascinating the need to imitate the imperfections of the original manufacture in order to be concourse. I saw elsewhere that the final paint needs a small amount or "orange peel" to imitate the factory paint of the period. If you buff it to a glass finish, you will lose concourse points. Thank you for sharing this fascinating process! (my OCD I can't resist making my seam sealer neat. LOL)
Where "elsewhere?" See if I wrote the article because I've written lots of articles about orange peel in factory paint.
@@thewriter2549 That's fun to think about - I grew up reading your books and articles! My dad was a fan and was always against "over-restoring" these cars. I distinctly remember him lecturing me about orange peel when redoing his bro's Boss 302 in the early 90's. He shot the car with single stage and held out against base/clears until it was no longer possible to get/find those original style materials. He reluctantly painted his '72 Mach 1 in RM base clear around 1999 on top of the same PPG primers you used. Even then it was quite expensive!
Poetry in motion - by any standard!
Does he have a waiting list 2 years out ?
Me too, keep it coming can't wait till the finish.
Wow looks amazing
Fascinating. Thank you for the Master Class restoration insights!
Good work
So awesome, love this restoration
Thank you very much - more on the way.
Definitely going to be amazing 🎉🎉🎉❤❤🤍🤍💙💙
watched all 4 parts. amazing work.
Very nice work, I'm enjoying this project. Thanks to you both for sharing.
Thanks, but I'm trying to figure out why parts 1 & 2 were popular, but parts 3 & 4 were watched far less. Do you have any idea? That's why I delayed so long on editing part 5. I'm thinking maybe only hard core people are aboard now.
@@thewriter2549 Yes it looks like a lot of folks went right past part 3 to part 4. That's a tough one to explain. One thing for sure I appreciate how you guys just get right to it, no BS. It as close to a shop class as it gets.
Watching this car get a second life is fascinating, how long until episode 5? I'm addicted... :)
I'll try to get to it after the story I'm editing now.
@@thewriter2549Jerry its been two months now and no new episode. Hope everything is going well
@@justaskmeiknow5584 Thanks for your concern. I had impacted kidney stones that cost me two months. My thanks to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester I should have a new video edited and online by mid January.
Excellent Work! That car will be stunning
I've thoroughly enjoyed the first 4 parts, when can we see more?
That’s incredible work, skill and knowledge. Industrial paint is amazingly good but amazingly expensive. I use it on some projects and it’s so different to “normal” paint, it sticks to metal like shit to a blanket, is extremely durable and will generally be more tolerant of poorer preparation. It goes on thicker and seems to go further and one coat is normally enough so I guess the high price actually saves time and money.
Cant wait to see all the job done to this car till the end
Congratulations on your Shelby! Thoroughly enjoying this series. Hope you're feeling better these days. Looking forward to seeing the rest. I would be a willing subscriber should you go that route! Cheers from Montreal!
Thanks, and especially for your response on the subscriber question.
Very nice Good job
One day I’ll have him restore a Mustang for me! Great job!
I missed this one somehow...got it now.
Awesome work I would like to have the bottom,trunk also add rino liner sprayed on.
Do you have part 5 posted yet? Loving this series!
Who is Jason,does he have his own shop? where is he located? This guy is a master craftsman.
Yes, he's in Hereford, Texas.
Good information.
Hell yeah ❤😁
This dude is awesome! But makes me nervous with no eye protection.
Hey Jerry, love your content and the restoration of your car. Got a question, do you have engine and tranny for it? I hope you have it, it Will be not so easy task to find one these days i think. Much love from eastern Europe🙂👌
Yes, got 428, 4-speed, dual fours, intake and air cleaner. All original. Thanks for asking.
Over $1000 for one gallon of red PPG paint.....WOW!
Careful not to spill.
Can’t wait for part 5
Do you have any ideas why Part 1 and Part 2 have been popular, but Part 3 and Part 4 have been watched far less and for far less time per video? I am guessing a smaller group of people want to see more detail, which is why I slowed down on these.
@@thewriter2549 I actually watched part 4 first and then went back to watch how the quarter panels got replaced
Wow so much work... is this overkill? Or is something less expensive and labor intensive an option for bringing say like a 22 yr old mustang like a 2001 bullitt with gas tank filler area rust and some electric issues and such?
Love mustangs
Nice work. What is the difference between a red oxide epoxy primer and others? Why choose that one?
Jason explained that when he was spraying on the red oxide primer to the bottom of the unibody. I'd have to go back and get those quotes or risk remembering it incorrectly, so if you can go back there you will get the full explanation.
Is there a part 5 coming on the restoration?
yes, there is a part 5, a part 6, clear up to part 12. The editing for each part takes over 100 hours of computer work to complete.
👍 BEAUTIFUL ❤️
What about the mechanicals like engine and electrical... does he do those also? Or only body work?
This entire series should be added to all high school shop courses…if, in fact hs shop course still exist. Do they?
Question, what supplier made the quarter panels you used?
Dynacorn
@@thewriter2549 Thank you! Yeah, I went back to a previous video and found that information. Looking at buying some fastback quarter panels for a project I have and have heard some suppliers didn't fit the same as the originals.
@@tombuer7708 I think today's quality quarter panels fit better than original Ford quarter panels. Did you notice in part 3 the product Jason used in place of lead that the factory used? And he said that new product is better than lead.
@@thewriter2549 Yeah, I used to be a bodyman years ago and know about that "all metal" filler.. I drove a 67 fastback years ago and want to "recreate" the fastback I had that I sold in the mid 1980s.. btw, those were coupe quarters he cut off. The second of the part number started with 65, that's Ford's code for coupe. Fastback was 63 and convert was 76.. It's been many years since I did much body work so some of the tools and some procedures have changed.
Great work. What material was used to fill the panel overlap seam between the quarter sail panel and roof? The factory used lead.
Jason showed that material and explained much about it. I can't recall the name or I'd say it. I guess you all skim through the video. I get it. I do the same thing sometimes.
Hi Jerry, good evening! I would really like to know the name of the equipment you use to attach the car chassis and turn it at 90°C? I found a way here at the workshop to close holes in the bodywork using cast iron (melted). A ceramic plate is positioned under pressure behind the hole and the molten iron comes on top, for a quick and well done job, then just finish it off. I would like to know the name of the machine, thank you.
I'll have to get hold of Jason and get the information for you. I'll see him next week. Thanks.
Great video this guy is good! Where is the video installation of the quarter panels ?

What kind of spray gun are you using
Hi there, have you anymore videos of this rebuild, cheers from Aussie
I have 2 projects that i am working on can always take some good advice
BUTTTTT SEALER
Its is easy for someone to sit at home (like me) and watch and nit pick this resto....however in this case I will. I spent 20+ years in a paint shop working for a global Automotive company and sealer was my speciality and I find it hard to believe even in 1967 that Ford USA would had applied their sealer then the operator running their fingers over it...... certain area's yes like deck lid's bonnet's etc the corner area's but the rest normally by gun then brush especially inside the floor pan as for the original "bead sealer" not touching the seem that would had been beacuse the operator was lazy and didn't do their job right and the quaility control operators at the end of the line in this process would had missed it (happens 5/100 cars or so) depends on the operators at the time. Apart from that it was most enjoyable to watch job does look amazing.
If we could talk to several assembly line workers back then. Otherwise, don't you think it's fairly easy for restorers to see the remnants of the work including fingerprints in the seam sealer?
@@thewriter2549 no….. have you ever work in an automobile company in their paint division for 20 plus years ?? If you had or have you would understand the point I’m trying to make.
@@peterbrady5273 I think I understand your point. I'm not disagreeing with what you are saying. My source here is the restorer. Maybe an assembly line worker can respond here.
@@thewriter2549 as I originally said it’s easy for me to sit in front if my 75 inch tv and nit pick the resto … however your right would be good to hear it from a line worker definitely. If I had a Mustang to be restored I’d take it to this guy in a heart beat definitely you can see his attention to detail and his passion for his work which is a rare event in the modern world…. I learnt my craft from old school tradesmen who used to draw and draft vehicles by hand in a drawing board not like today even though I was brought up in the CAD era of manufacturing then it n to automation etc. I’m looking forward to the rest of the build and I wish you well.
@@peterbrady5273Sorry to nitpick in return but how many pre-1990's USA cars have you seen apart? Build quality and QC was really that bad in many cases. The seam sealer is always a mess on these cars. This Shelby is being restored as close to its as-built condition as is practical. Like Jerry said, you can see witness marks all over the original seam sealer showing brush strokes, finger swipes, blobs, etc. It's plain as day. Nothing really to dispute.
Any sign of next episode?...great stuff
Thanks, the reason I slowed down is Part 1 & Part 2 were popular, but Part 3 & Part 4 were watched far less. I'm asking a few people their ideas why. Thanks.
I noticed the rollbar is installed. Would this have been installed at Ford or at Shelby? Also the plate for the rubber snubber at the front of the leaf springs, same question, installed at Ford or Shelby? TY
Roll bar and snubbed was installed at shelby
What happened to the rest of the video’s? Wanted to see it completed,
Impacted kidney stones put me a couple months behind. I'm going to be making the remainder of the restoration videos KZhead subscription-only at $4.99 per month, cancel anytime. Is that something you would subscribe to?
I hope you are feeling better, and those things don’t return. I’ve really enjoyed watching the mustang build, but I just watch because I appreciate the craftsmanship. I would not be interested at $4.99 month.
@@thewriter2549 I'm also very interested in seeing the rest of the restoration as I've been following this build since the beginning. But I wouldn't pay to see the videos. Just my two cents.
He's seam sealing leaves alot to be desired rest of the work looks great
How is the progress going on the GT going? Had to rewatch due to withdrawal symptoms. 😂
Finished the Shelby last summer. Got behind on the edits because they take over 100 hours each. I don't know why parts 3 and 4 had far less views.
@thewriter2549 Glad to hear it got finished. Do you have pictures on Instagram of the Car finished?
No, I want the car to be revealed in this series.
Ep 869 what is I want it for my fastback but how i can find ?? I want the color
Is this the car that came from Rock Port,Missouri?
This one came from 40-year hibernation in a barn in Nebraska near Brock.
When is the fifth one coming out??
Probably about a month. I may put this series in a special subscription-only part of the channel that has special content that only subscribers can access. How do you feel about that?
Hi all I cannot find the rest of the series can anyone help, cheers
When will part 5 come out?
I estimate a month.
What brand is the red epoxy?
RM ppg stop making the red
Who is the guy doing the work? Very talented.
Jason White (Jason White Restorations in Hereford, Texas)
