The fact that you were able to get the doors that far speaks volumes.

Bob, my brothers and I were hired when we were in high school to sand a huge ( about 20 footer) boat that a guy was fiberglassing. Little did we know what that entailed. I’m 74 now and still itching from it. Good job, Professor 😮

Dang Bob I'm starting to itch just watching this video!!!

Very impressive Bob. You truly do "build stuff".

this channel is the best for showing you hwo to fix problem things like this...dont change anything about your presentation mr bub!

We who have done so much with so little for so long, that now we can do just about anything with practically nothing 👍 Keep diggin' Bob !

I think you are doing a great job considering this is your first Fiberglass car. I'm learning a lot as you go along. Keep up the good work and be careful of the HEAT🔥🌡️

You are truly an inspiration to all the rest of us. You are deep into the hardest part right now, and doing a great job considering the temperatures down there! Love all of your tricks and keep up the great work. Lookin good Bob!

keep at it Bob...stay hydrated.

Those inner door panels are looking fantastic. That is a lot of work....no question. Great work. Look forward to seeing the outer panels get fitted. Be safe and stay well. And stay cool too.

You're doing a good job. Thanks for sharing with us.

Coming along well Bob. Great to see you back in action.

Bob I'm just going to say it again .... Your Great in whatever you're doing building these Rat Rods, I have learned so much by watching you work making these videos, and I want to Thank you for all that you do!

great work.

I have watched for years and you gave me false confidence. I am making a custom speedster. I got it in my mind that upgraded door latches woukd be just the thing. So I got a set of Rolls Royce latches and receivers. What a giant pain in the patutte. But when I got it right it is magic. Thanks Bob.

Hey Bob, you sure can turn your hand to anything "hot rod "I'm impressed.

Bob, That is an insane amount of detail fiberglass work, WOW! You are literally building your own inner and outer door structures. This is why others gave up on this car. Because the doors were all wrong! Considering what you have accomplished so far, I think you are working at a pretty good clip especially considering the weather. I live in South Texas so I know the heat issue. The only thing I would recommend is that you also fiberglass the mounting metal of your window regulators. You've already beefed up thee hinges and latches. Time spent now sorting out the doors will be well spent at the end of this car. Keep on keeping on. You are indeed "Getting it!"

This little sweetie is well worth it.really like this one Bob.

Looks like the perfessor figured it out!!!! With the fumes your probably need to take the rest of the day off!!!!

Keep on keeping on Bob!!!

Keep plugging away at it....slow and steady wins the race!!!

Bob, that looks great. Love this build, also the mini chopper is awesome. Can't wait till the next video.

Great job Bob!!! we'll see yah next time stay cool don't melt

doing a GREAT job Bob--

Very interesting Bob thank you

i'm almost speechless, you are without a doubt one of America's premier vehicle fabricators, bar none. it is a pleasure to watch what you accomplish, thanks for the journey Bbo.

G'day Bob, Another cool vid , Get Red to lend a hand with the fibreglass, he wont get to itchy . Respect....!

Your determination and stick-to-itiveness is amazing. Man I hate fiberglass work. I have only done it on rc models. I can't imagine the grief you are going thru on these dang doors!

I was getting worried thinking you had quit until summer was over. Looks like you got those doors going your way.

Awesome work Bawb Your are a Genius

You are a great person, I sure am proud of your work, I’d be itching like crazy, have a great weekend, you deserve it. Brian.

Lots of patience Bawb, doors are looking great, you hear me!

You are an amazing builder Bob.you getting it Bob

Wow alot of work. Your awesome ❤

Good job Bob .. you have a lot of patience.. car is going to look great ..

Very Nice Bob, it's great to make your parts with Fiberglass, i like your tape and cardboard trick😁😁

Lookin good Bawb, nice work with the glass and making it fit better than the factory ever did

I think the doors are important to fit right bob. Dont want the wind to open that door while your driving down the road. I didn't know a person could manipulate a fiberglass door so much. Your amazing Bob. I learn more from you and coldwarmotors every time I watch. Those other tubers are kinda rinse n repeat. School of Rat Rodology. Thank you Sir

Very Nice Work Bob Coming along Nicely

You are the man Bob , great work

Wish I lived around you bob I love fiberglass

PAINT THIS ONE NICE THIS IS A NICE CAR SHOW OFF ON THIS ONE YOU ARE VERY TALENTED

Lookin' good, Bob !!!!

Bob doors fit great. Good on you

Coming together just fine Bob. Love watching your videos. Want to get me a Rat Rod one day. I live in Philadelphia Ms. Let me know when you are going to a car show I would really like to meet you one day

I just did a suicide door conversion and i had to take each door on and off like you said probably 20 or more times trial and error fitting. Patience grasshopper, is what you must have! Your level is of epic proportions ,nicely done brother!

Thanks for another , Brother !

man if i know one thing when you do get threw ...that's going to be bad ass!!!!! take your time bud don't let you tube rush you!!!

thanks for the tips working that glass, wish i would of known before hand with my old Bosten Whaler

Red said ain't want no part of that fiberglass stuff boooooob.....hell of job so far I'll say bob....stay Kool the heat is on LOL from Arizona to NYC ....🙂👍🙏

Great job on the doors Bawb.

Hey Bob. Good job on working on the glass car. I never worked with fiberglass but I would think it would be harder because you can't tack a piece in like metal. Plus it is very itchy. We had a heat wave here as well, but it is gone now. Thanks for sharing.👍👍🍁

The guy I watched in the boat yard would hot glue parts together and then fiberglass them. I tried it on a marine exhaust, worked great.

We All know , If any one can make them doors fit it's you Mr BoB . Cheers . 🚙🕸👍🤔🤠

I like the mini chopper....So there's that.

Up in the north, we get to 40% humidity, maybe, in the middle of winter. Otherwise, humidity is through the roof, Bawb. This is a great example of why rodders stay away from 'glas bodies and pieces.

Looking good Bob.

Looking good Bob 👍👍

cant believe you leaving red out of this nice build you both make a team

well done Bob..doing good

I seen you post and instantly started to watch you amaze me with stuff I struggled with fixing hoods and fenders on large trucks in the logging industry. When your showing everyone the way to do stuff, or at least what worked for you as the keyboard engineers may not agree..... anyway...... the smell of the resin hit my nose like I was there doing it myself. I never knew about the tape not sticking or just a about everything shown here on screen. I did feel my fingers get sticky and want to stick together tho/LOL. Ya... moving along with the project Bob in heat only scorpions enjoy. While I was in the hospital, the room I was in had the large windows, facing a tar paper black roof which attached to the building I was in. We haven't seen much hot weather this year and a high of around 77 degrees is about as warm as it gets. That heat tho from the reflection liked to bake my room. We don't have air conditioning in the only hospital here. I felt bad for those nurses walking a average of eleven miles a shift helping everyone there. I felt so dang helpless and would have to have a nurse do some/all of the things a guy does (forget modesty) but they soldiered on with smiles.... Dang Bob, it leaves a guy ashamed to whine about anything after this experience. I watched the video and got feeling poorly so just took more medication for this nauseous feeling I get. Your not complaining yet working in heat that would kill me quicker than the darn heart attack I went through. Your a soldier yourself for mustering a video out in that heat. One thing about getting older is our tolerance to stuff isn't near what it was say at thirty years of age. I keep learning from you a lot of stuff and so from that may be able to at least help someone else do something that needs glass work. I will stop writing my book length comment now and just say thank you!!

God job Rat Rod Bob

Looking good Bob !!

Hey Bob I have found that body filler/ bondo sticks to fierglass like baby shi- to a blanket, and can help to make floppy bits quite ridged.

Hi My Dear Friend Very Very Good Job ❤❤❤❤❤

Good call note point joint. More surface. Gonna try it

You never fail to amaze me 👍

Fantastic job .well done

You're getting it!

Interesting stuff Bob!

Nice work Bob. DONT FORGET TO DRILL HOLES IN THE BOTTOM TO LET THE WATER OUT.

Good plan!

Fusor makes a structural two part glue, would save from alot of itching. Its made for glueing fiberglass.

Man, this is teaching me to stick with metal. Nice work, now take the rest of the day off with pay!

"Hi, I'm Rat Rod Bob and I build stuff" !! ... Yes, that you do Bob... and since you're building doors, after you finish both, please don't lose the momentum and push your skill to the limit by building a trunk lid for a rumble seat? You'll have the only fibreglas '34 Ford with a chopped roof and a rumble seat set up for a couple of other passengers..

Great work .

You’re awesome it going to look good

Bet there has been some colorful words of no so much wisdom spoken as the work on these doors have progressed lol I didn't realize that they were for a different style of body working with fiberglass is a lot different than metal harder at times easier in some places reconstructing them to fit gotta be tuff your work is looking good ! Don't think id even have the patience to do it keep up the good work

It's going to be great!

Cool stuff. I'm digging the progress. Wonder how Red feels about that fiberglass. Great video. Enjoyed watching ✌️ 😎

Power windows??? It's gonna be a luxury buggy. Nice

For a little strength, lay a piece of cloth, 2 pieces of mat, start over too build thickness, and saturate so no white shows. You can also shred the mat and use it for filler,don't have to use a solid piece. Flow coat it with resin to get a smooth finish.

Outstanding

Man this is interesting and your doing a great job Bob. You have mastered the art of moving and adding fiberglass I see. Cut it and add. Very clever useing box tape and card board to back it while it sets up. I really like your Ryobi glue gun too its very handy. Thank you for the interesting and informative video. I always enjoy seeing what you been building. Berry Cool Bob.

Lookin great! Hopefully the inner door is in far enough so there is room to mount the outer skin flush with the body.

Yep ... that's the trick!

Try using red sheathing tape nothing sticks to it but once its peeled away there is no residue. I also like 1/4 inch arena board or polyethylene sheeting, its a poor man's Teflon, it bends and with hot glue you can form simple molds

Lookin good Bawb

Good video!
