I think the Brass goes so well with the green leather and the Burgandy paint. An awesome touch to the amazing Midnight Special. Great job Karl.

I absolutely love brass and copper. They just feel warm to the eye.

Your craftsmanship is unbelievable, but the explanation of what you are doing is what I find more impressive.

Masterfully done Karl! The brass definately adds class! Thanks and we'll see you next time.

Let me be honest. I didn't think it was gonna look quite that good,... but it did and it impressed me. Only when it's finished it becomes visible that there is all these other parts it's like 'talking to'. Not just other brass parts, but also the lettering and the shape touch of the louvres and such. This shows that being able to clearly visualise the end result up front is an art in itself. When you're done it sits there totally natural, as if has always belonged there. It doesn't just add something, but it kinda matures the whole car. An absolute score.

Wow, thank you very much for your compliment and honesty!

What a craftsman!

Great video your attention to detail and explanation make you a great teacher

Drilling holes in brass can be tricky. It wants to pull or grab. Using a hand punch is safer or putting a blunt vertical edge on the drill bit.

Been wheeling brass everyday all day for the last few weeks. Love shaping brass!

Thank you! Cheers!

It was a kick to see the Red Wing Shoes banner at Bennetts Customs. I wear Red Wing boots and the factory is only 165 klicks from my house. Great work on the brass. Polished is best.

Nice!!!! Polishing also becomes a problem when the object you are polishing is a knife and it gets away from you. Great Video!!!!

We used to use a piece of card on one side of the lower carrier too cant the wheel, when I worked in aerospace fabrication.

Nice work on the windshield!

You gotta go give Fitzee a class in templates, he just despises using them for some reason and I love poking at him and saying……hey Fitz, Karl would’ve used a template on that! 🤣

Amazing piece of craftsmanship and design- looks a hoot to drive if not a challenge. Love the brass windscreen. Somewhere in Canada a Timmies is wondering where there sign went 🤥

A master class of your process! A magnificent work of functional art that compliments a stunning car, which is also a work of art! Go Japhands, keep moving forward!

Always a Great take with Make it Kustom, like how that brass looks against that Deep Maroon, and revealing the steering wheel rim👍 Sweet work Karl as always

Awesome car!

The finishing touch on one of the coolest cars

Karl glad to see your work Down Under in Australia. Great work as always on the wind reflector. Thanks for sharing! 💯👊👍

Fabulous work and an amazing result. I really appreciated the in depth wheel tips and it was very cool to see you wheeling something besides steel. Keep rockin it!

Looks great. Those blac weels would look so good with a brass and silver fine outer pinstripe to tie it together

Cool car, that’s one of those that even if it’s not very powerful it still feels like you’re going really fast cause you’re out in the open and it’s probably loud and just such a sensory overload 👍

Both u guys r great .. best metal whisperers in the world

That's the cherry on top of a killer build! Take care

Great video and love how you got to work your old tools!

Ha ha it’s always a throwback going over there!

You make everything you do look easy.And cool. That turned out fabulous.

That technique works great on aluminum too, especially opposite compound curves in the same panel.

Your finished product is amazing

Awesome work Karl💚🇬🇧🌱 you seemed a little overwhelmed to start with but it came out great!

Awesome job just making the paper template was impressive you don't get this type of information from tv shows

Fantastic! I love the english wheel action! I really like to have one english wheel too!

Yes Sir !!!

Awesome job, looks better polished, in my opinion 👍

you are absolutely extraordinary with your works, never seen before

Bennett's has done a great job with Midnite Special.i agree with wind shield great work by Karl once again. Greetings from Adelaide guys

I love it! You killed that reverse curve! Keep after it brother

Just stunning there is nothing else one can say really.

Reverse curve was definitely the way to go Karl totally transformed the look of the car 😎

I learn something every video , thank you Karl

That thing is amazing. Well done!

Shit yeah love how you changed it to brass. Thanks for letting me sit in it!! Legends

Looks great, certainly looks the part ,thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones

I think you need to make a large crash helmet and use the old screen as a peak. With Bennett’s and make it custom lettering. It would make a fantastic trophy to give away for a best of show.

awesome !! thanks.

Nice work Carl, I agree on the brass, a little more period.. Good to meet you at Armadale Auto"s too. Vern. With the Lincoln..

It’s like you went to the Make It Custom tool museum!

Bomb🙌

Beautiful car. Love the lateral shocks on the front axle. The windscreen looks spectacular. Really nice work Karl. Spectacular craftsmanship. Look forward to more from Aussie Land. Be safe and stay well.

You're the man.

Beautifully done Sir!

Awesome work

Awesome demonstration.

Absolute class piece, well done!!

Goday ✌good see you made it down under enjoy the show,s and your time fantastic cars &trucks 🙃👋

Very nice work Karl and Jordan

Great adventure

I bet using your old bead roller was a bit like putting on a pair of old house slippers just feels right...great video thanks

Wow! Just Wow! Perfect blend. Great craftsmanship!

Always wanted to see the basics of the reverse curve so thanks for this great video!

Nice work. Looks 100% better than before, Karl [and Jordan]

Looks fabulous on that car .Great job😊

Venus d milo in the background corner upper level.

At the 30:00 mark, I want to know where that Washington license plate came from. Back in the late 90's when I ran away from the US and followed a girl to Sydney, I brought gifts for people and one of the things I brought was a stack of old local license plates. Makes me wonder if that's one of mine! ha!

Nice Work. Looks Great. I think that you should make thin Brass caps for the louvers. Crump the top of them & Glue the Bottom, to keep them on. #STAYSAFE #PHILLYPHILLY 🇺🇸

Enjoy your trip Karl ! As always thank you for bringing us along to the land down under

Nice job all round.

Dang Karl that is one fine piece of Brass👍

You'd make a great teacher .good stuff

Classy Brassy! Class Act as always.

Great job, I was hoping to see a rolled top edge, but it matches the rest of the car without it.

Nother amazing piece really enjoy your videos 👍🏻
