0:00
right here it is the last day Spencer's
0:03
project Volvo to Ferrari transformation
0:07
making aluminum panels 063 aluminum
0:10
panels at Pro shaper Workshop in Char
0:14
Massachusetts tending my coach building
0:16
class so you can see he came here with
0:20
the doors which are modified Volvo doors
0:23
he made the skin by bending the aluminum
0:26
over a pipe he tipped the edges and
0:30
attached it to the Volvo uh inner
0:32
structure of the door which you had to
0:34
modify a little bit to make it look more
0:36
like the 275 for hour
0:38
GTB and then when he came here he had
0:41
the wireform it's still in there these
0:43
panels are over the wire form and he had
0:45
the printed front nose piece but he made
0:48
that complete left front fender all he
0:51
needs to do yet is uh the front assembly
0:54
and the back assembly have to be welded
0:57
that seam right there you get all the
1:01
tipped and uh looks really really good
1:04
he got the front nose top section that
1:07
looks really good he's still missing
1:09
these pieces he's going to do these back
1:12
when he gets home he says he might come
1:15
again he's going to have Hiatus working
1:18
on it now because he's behind on so many
1:20
other projects at home and he's got all
1:22
the pieces for this right side fender
1:25
that all have to be trimmed and then
1:27
welded together and it'll look just like
1:30
left so let me bring Spencer in here
1:33
I'll ask him a few questions there's
1:36
Spencer he's a happy guy way more work
1:40
than he figured got done he worked his
1:42
butt off though I mean he hasn't slacked
1:44
off at all we start at 9:00 in the
1:46
morning and he's been leaving at 10:
1:49
he's a little slacker there because I
1:51
11: uh but he's been really tired too
1:54
he's been working like a maniac for 19
1:57
days so Spencer uh you wheeled all these
2:01
panels with my big English wheel you did
2:05
a little bit of detail work with one of
2:07
my little small wheels but what are some
2:10
of the other tools that you used in the
2:12
shop uh certainly the Tipping wheel The
2:15
Tipping wheel to do all the flanges the
2:17
uh the shrinking facilitator shrinking
2:20
facilitator you did the shrinking
2:22
actually on just one panel you needed
2:24
shrinking everything else was stretch
2:26
just this panel right here everything
2:30
um what else the big beater bag that's
2:34
like this big the giant beater bag you
2:36
can put the whole fender on there you
2:38
can work the wells if you get shrinkage
2:40
on the weld or something like that you
2:42
put the the whole Fender assembly on
2:45
there and then just tap those Wells back
2:46
out so you get that shrinkage out and
2:49
then the other tools were the flexible
2:51
shape patterns which I made with the
2:53
tape um but the shrinker stretch you use
2:57
to my my shrinker stretcher
3:00
and then um the planishing hammer on the
3:04
wells you you you ran them on the
3:06
planishing hammer a couple times and
3:08
then uh we grind them down in a specific
3:11
manner to get them perfect and then uh
3:14
slapp and Dolly work to to really get
3:17
the fine uh surface refinement done but
3:22
any any comments you want to make
3:24

4:13
more work done it's probably not going

to be done for another six months or so
4:17
you know as these projects all take time
4:19
not that it takes that much time to do
4:21
it it's just that you got to allocate
4:23
the time to do it and he's allocated 19
4:26
