Building The Ultimate Hot Rod In 20 Minutes - Ford Free-T
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In 2019 we completed our build series on the Ford Free-T and have it carefully tucked away in preparation for the 2020 driving season. We figured it would be a great start to the year to show what the car started as; a pile of free parts, and show off the final product. The Free-T started as a slap together down and dirty hot rod that we could thrash on at the local racing events, but the plans and vision changed. The Free-T has become a one of kind car, and we hope you enjoy watching the whole process! Thanks for watching and be sure to subscribe, 2020 is going to be unforgettable!

I am 81 years old and lived through a lot of the early classic hot rod times and what I have just witnessed you build is a fantastic example of highly skilled fabrication. Well done fellows.

It makes you realize the amount of hard work that has gone into building this and the result is stunning.
Still can’t believe how lucky Mike was that day he set himself on fire 🔥

Oh man ! i completely forgot what you started with ! I can't believe you looked at that pile of floppy flimsy sheet metal and decided to build a car out of it ! Awesome car and and a great build series ! I'd love to see an episode called '' How Free Is That T ? '' Man hours , what did you buy sell & trade . How close did you get to a free T
Well that is the No1 video of 2020 already 🙌🏻 Nailed it !

What I like about this video is for people who just found you. Don't maybe understand Hot Rodding or just curious in what it takes to do a project. Thumbs up as always. 👍👍👍
Be proud all of you who made this possible. Thank you for everything; the adventure, the skills & knowledge expressed, the fun, the fubars, the fantastic education & entertainment. This video alone deserves an award. Excellent, excellent efforts all 'round. Very well done Iron Trap Garage!

All I can say guys is Wow! Beautiful car. It puts a smile on my face to see that their are still real Craftsman out there such as your self.
It is amazing to see the time-lapse on the Free-Tee Hot Rod build it really showed all of the hard work that was put in on it. Just one thang to add I would love to see Free-Tee go down the road once the weather clears up.
Watching this montage makes the "free-t" look like it was a piece of cake. Those of us that watched the build series know better, nice job and I hope Ya'll can enjoy it for many years to come!
I'm an old hot rodder all most 80 love your make anything work mindset can't do too much stuff anymore living in an Apt complex you remind myself in the 60's I look forward to watching you next video.

Truly amazing the before and after, this is how a t should be done, hope to see it out this summer at the shows
You nailed the look and feel of a V8-T.
I'm always amazed at the quality of your workman ship, It's a gift that few people have. Gramps
Apart from the great craftsmanship I always get so relaxed being in that garage of yours. Have a great 2020 guys!
What a fantastic way to start out the new year! That “little car” is a BIG FREAKING SUCCESS !!! Thank you for bringing us along.
👍 That is a great build Bro! Kudos to you for evolving to here! Then, you fired up the Flattie! Yeah, baby!
A permanent record of craftsmanship and hard work. I like other viewers forgot what you started with !
Awesome montage. Great video to start the new year. You guys inspire me to get off my butt and get out in the shop. Keep em coming. Fan for life. Thanks.
One of your top 5 videos of all time. Great start for 2020.
Thank you for sharing! When you first started on the Ford Free Tee, I thought it was to be a build without Ford components so I didn't follow it, but she is a work of art!

We love this car. The first build my wife and I did was a T- Bucket back in 1987 - 1988. It wasn't steel but it was an old Speedway body. Watching this car come back to life was a walk down memory lane for us. Thank you for all you and the crew bring to the table, for all your fellow Hot Rodders. Happy New Year.

That’s awesome the wife and yourself built one together! That’s what it’s all about! Creating lasting memories and building something with your own hands!
Amazing work! And to think you built her from the ground up in only 20 minutes! Very impressive!
"Wow that was a big project." "Hear that?....... so solid." It was a heavy metal pleasure to watch this "Free T in 20 min." vid. Matt is the super-best of all old- school hot-rod craftsmen!

Great video and what makes it even greater is not having typical head banging music so typical of these car building videos! Thumbs up! EDIT: 6:02 Never mind......
The work you did on that tranns tunnel is a work of art... Nice!
Great job on the car and this video. Keep it up!
Hi guys awesome project congratulations on a fantastic job. Great skills just love it. Happy New Year to all. Jeremy Downunder.
As much fun watching it this way as in segments.. turned out really nice

Fantastic video Matt. The car is stunning in every way. Congrats and Happy New Year.
Reason I just subscribed and rang the bell... just a few days ago. The Free T and so much more.
Beautiful work gentlemen!
Another good and fun video ! Happy New year 🙂
One of the best videos I loved keep it up! Love your hot rod shop
When I found IronTrap the Free T was nearly finished and there was too many new things in progress to go back and catch up, so this was a nice vid to watch. You have done an amazing job, she looks fantastic and the level of craftsmanship is second to none. I don't know if you have heard of Bad obsession motorsport, Project Binky, but your's and their channel are my 2 favorite on YT on cars. Keep on keeping on and Happy New Year.

Hi guys, beautiful work, many hours of effort and sacrifice invested in finishing a work of art of mechanics, as I always tell you I speak Latin Spanish and I understand very little of what they say in the videos but it is exciting to see them work giving signature to Every piece of sheet metal, with a lot of neatness and passion for what you do, I hope I have not bored you with my comment and I hope that the Google translator manages to translate correctly what I wanted to express. I send you a big hug and many blessings for you and your families In this 2020 that has just begun, his friend from Argentina.
Car turned out amazing !

Nice to see a 20 minute quickie with the "show" then the proof she's not a trailer queen. You're a true Craftsman!
Nice work boys!
This has been the absolute best build series I have ever seen. The amount of build time you showed was excellent, and it showed just how difficult it is to build a car from scratch. This wasn't a buy all the parts and put it together with a how-to manual, this was a create each part by building it and then create the next and on and on. I was truly amazed by your ability to think on your feet and change your mind in mid-stride. This is a stepping stone to bigger and better things to come and I wish you all the luck in achieving your goals, and I hope to be here watching it all come true.

@@IronTrapGarage I like when you say "when done." There were times I'm sure you might have thought oh my God this is going to take forever, like when you were doing the tunnel and floorboards for instance when it was done you sat down in a chair with a look on your face of pure relieve and satisfaction, I do know what that feeling is like also.
Absolutely beautiful
Absolutely outstanding time lapse video that filled in a lot of the effort that Y'all put into building the "Free T" project. She's a priceless Rod Matt 😎
