My father told me when I was young you better learn how to be jack of all trades because you cannot afford to pay to have everything done. He was right. More than ever today!!

Dan: Been mixing automotive paint for over 30 ys (Dupont and PPG). My paint chips go back to the 1940's (have current formulas for most tri-five colors). I also have a paint camera and can scan a chip to generate a formula. Anything I can do give me a yell! We're here for you buddy!😁

I’m not a painter I sometimes wish I was however, I’m a great fan. I’ve always said: “If you cant afford to be a race car driver😎🕺🏻🤔👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🕺🏻, be the best fan you can be) I believe in keeping it in the family whatever it was, racing, building, creating etc etc) MY DAD WAS A PASTOR SO HE WAS THE FIRST MAN OF GOD THAT CAME INTO MY LIFE AND I AM SO GRATEFUL I COULDN’T ASK FOR ANYTHING MORE !! IF MORE PEOPLE SAID: “THANK YOU JESUS” LESS WOULD HAVE TO SAY OMG 😳!! @ THE TRUTH 😉🤔☝️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hey Dan... short guy tip that helps tall guys reach the roof too. By an 8' long 2x10 and two short folding step ladders. Put the 2x10 between them, and you can walk the length of the roof with enough height to reach the center and not drag the hose or sleeves in the material. When you're done, stand the board against the wall, and fold the step ladders next to it. Minimal space taken up. That thing looks FREAKIN AMAZING getting to be one color.

It looks good 👍, I always like the primer going on . It will definitely show you were a little more care needs to before painting 🎨 Thanks Dan , have a great day👍👋

It's really starting to look like a bad ass NOMAD!

Lighting and sound quality is spot on Dan!

Two projects at once and both inside!! Now you're just showing off!! Great work Dan!! Cheers!! 🤓

It’s getting there

Great job spraying now when it comes to sanding that product is amazing. PLACES YOU DID NOT LIKE AFTER SANDING JUST GO BACK AND BLOW A LITTLE OVER IT JUST LIKE USING PUTTY, ONLY BETTER ON BLOCK SANDING IT STAYS LEVEL AND DOES NOT DRY OUT AND SHRINK.

WOW, for a moment there the wet primer with the lights reflecting off of it looked really nice. It took on a silver look and I like silver. Great progress on the roof as well as the whole body.

Dan the body sanding man! Keep pushing thru it! Looking great!

Primer is my favorite stage, she's lookin' AMAZING.

Leave it in primer and it will look 👍

The car is looking good. The new garage looks great.

If you use guide coat when you send that hide build it'll make getting it flat super easy.

Dan, you are an inspiration. The nomad will live on.

You gunna need a little trolley cart. Or a modified Safeway cart. Surprised you don't have a fan exhaust fan in the shop yet. I enjoy watching you channel

The roof looks amazing wow what a transformation 👏 👍

It's really coming along. A couple tips for you: Toss that little filter from inside your primer gun, get some of the cone shaped paint strainers and filter it when you pour from your mixing cup into the gun. Also, a roll of plastic masking film makes life easier when you want to spray part of the car. Reverse tape the edges, pull the sheet over the whole car, and trim off the area you want to paint. It's quick, cheap, and keeps the overspray off of everything you don't want painted.

Good job. I think a little more surf music will help her wake up.

Really lookin’ good man!

Looking good Dan sure glad you saved her 😄👍👍👍

Wow looks good Rusty Roof Gone Looks so much better

Progress

With the hi build primer on the roof the Nomad is really looking like how will look with two tone when finished if you use your imagination. Great work Dan.

Well, well. Another Nimmo! I’m Stuart Nimmo from Paris, France 🇫🇷 A great fan of Dan and Dani and this Nomad resurrection.

Don't know if you have changed your encoding software's settings but you only came third in the lip synch contest, audio about half a second out from video. Otherwise keep up with the sanding and get a good paint finish, it's all in the prep!

Speckle the grey with black ⚫

Primer makes you feel like the end is close. Get a feeling of a accomplishment. Like the light in the tunnel feeling. Wait is that the end or is a train coming. You'll get there Dan starting to see your vision.

Dan big congratulations on your success, your channel has really come a long way since I started watching. New garage is really set up nice and thumbs up to Muher for suggesting to wear a microphone, Nomad is really looking great. Great job

Your new garage ROCKS!

Back in my day, we used to thin out lacquer primer putty with thinner until we could spray it through my primer gun. 48 hours later, blocking began. Eventually the car looked straight as new......ofetn even better.

Hey Dan, I think it look damn good. It looked real good when it was wet. Still can't get over how it looked when you brought it into your garage to what it looks like now. Great job Dan. Take a break and put your brain to work again on something different. Take care and be safe.

Coming along 👌

Love your videos. Great car (55 Nomad) to do the work on. Glad you are going for a daily driver, and not show car.

Nice to see you are finally painting a car. Not just making a car that needs to be restored by someone else. Don't spray this with a single stage paint. Don't use the excuse that's what they used when the car was built. 2 stage is easier to paint with which allot of people don't realize and the clear coat will have a gloss shine single stage will never have.

Pretty sure your confused on what a restoration is. Shiney paint on a rotten car?

LOVE YOUR SHOW, ALL YOUR AMBITION AND HARD WORK PROVE TO VIEWERS YOUR HEART IS IN THE RIGHT PLACE, THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO..

I’m so impressed Great Dan

Looks Good! Years ago a Old Friend that had a Body Shop, he wasn't very tall. So he would let all the air out of the tires, that would lower the Car another 3/4 inches, witch helped when Spraying the Roof of a Car.

Been watching from the beginning of this build, when primer starts going on things start to show all the hard work u did and looking great man.

Looking great! Step by step she'll start looking better and better!

I really like the Nova, it's what brought me here and I can't wait to see it done up right.

what a great job. you should be proud. my favorite part of a build, that first time it's one color and the project just takes a big step forward. CAN NOT wait to see when it has the colors on it.

It changed the look of the look of the car nice job

Roof looks great. Nomad has come a long way. Good progress.

You should tell everyone how much the retail price is on all the consumables so that everyone can get the real cost of doing what you do.. not cheap. Keep up the good work.

And that was on Dan's budget.

Say hello from Gordon in Flint mi area . Here your making it looking great under primer .

So sweet golden goodness in one place keep up the great shows

I hate sanding as well. However, the light is at the end of the tunnel and from what i see you will have a fine ride. Especially from where you started from.

When I done my 72 nova I had never done body work before & had the body men & painters tell me how to do it & it took me 3 months of working the primer coats. I thought usinng rattle can black paint to dust it sounded crazy but once I stared sanding I realized it showed the low & high points of the metal surface & after sanding & 4 coats of primer it turned out smooth as glass !

She's Really Cleaning Up Nicely... Thanks for Sharing

Couple Quick tips from a painting pro. (You probably know them.) The last thing you do before spraying is tac rag the surface. (Lots of possible products) gets rid of the dust and helps the product stick. Painting is all about FLOW. Runs = too much flow...Move faster use less reducer, back up. Orange peel = too little flow...slow down, increase overlap, add more reducer, move a little closer. NICE work!

Also,static discharge is a great thing.there is a gun for it after tacing the car/panel.static pulls dust in

I Like all yer Vids Dan . Can’t Waite for the next one ! Great work . Tell Danni Hi from the Crazyman

Worth mentioning to your viewers that the Polyester High-builds tend to have a short pot-life. So don't mix too much and don't farf around too long setting up the gun and spraying it on the car or it will harden in the gun. Ask me how I learned this.

Ouch! It sounds like it was not a good day.

Thank goodness you put the carpet in

It’s shaping up nicely 👍

A couple of milk crates and 2X4's make doing the roof so much easier, if you don't fall off.

You guys know it’s going white top, and that original yellow color he found under the windshield on the bottom half. It’s going to look sweet.

Your a lucky man having all those great hot rods

Great job!!!!

We used something called sandy on a 59 corvette Non sanding primer ,we still wet sanded it & it filled the small scratches, it was a gloss black lacquer 8 thin coats of paints ,then we buffed it ,then clear coated it for a show car shine !! Good luck that's a beautiful car !!!

AAHH! That looks great! Now lets see, sand then shmuck on the filler, sand that, reshmuck, more sanding, shmuck again, more sanding. Aint this fun, But wait, there's more, Make ready for primer which means? Yep! More sanding. Prime it. Let it sit and cure. Who knows what comes next? Come on, everyone knows the answer.

Really loving the videos! I look forward to seeing them. All your hard work it's starting to pay off big time!

Can’t wait to see it finished.

Future Dan is going to have a ton of fun and enjoyment driving that Nomad.. people are going to think he is wealthy or something though. Stay flannel Dan. In just a few months we will be playing yard tetris again.

Ohhhh yeah.....roof.....LOOKING GOODENHEIMER!!!

unreal transformation love wathching

Dan, the mic sounds great, and it sounds like you’re getting the echo tamed. A quick tip: a hand clap before you step in from of the camera will help you sync audio and video. Its super annoying for OCD folks like me when we feel like we are watching a poorly dubbed kung fu movie. Keep dialin’ it & love the content!

Looking good Dan 👍

Dan it is just amazing of all the sheetmetal bits you have pieced together you now have a Nomad. Once the top coat is on we will see how well you really did. The brighter lighting and walls helps also. AL B in snow covered Ohio.

Very nice job ! Getting better day by day!

As always awesome!! Man, Dan you always jump in with both feet! Totally cool to see your skills improve with every project!! Nice work!!

That's awesome Dan! That is amazing what you've done with the 55 Nomad👍

Lookin’ mighty fine! It’s only a glimpse at what the final product will be like. Your hard work and diligence is paying off.

HIGH BUILD PRIMER AN JUST FILL ITS SIMPLE ALLOT OF SMOOTHING OUT LOOKING GOOD BROTHER

IT looks awesome ,youve brought this car so far,Great job

Dan, looking good! Keep up the good work!!

Wow what a difference primer can make ehhh !! it looks awesome Dan good job bud !!

Looking good Dan. Take your time , take breaks, It can get very tedious to get everything right. Nice work buddy.

Awesome Dan! Your doing great work so don’t sell yourself short. 👍😎🇨🇦

It looks awesome Dan! Can't wait to see it finished but I love watching the progress. My vote white top yellow bottom. I had a 57 ht yellow with a black top it was awesome looking. Someday I say to myself I will have another. Thanks Dan for your videos.

Great job. Thank you.

You are doing a awesome job what a Hot Rod who couldn't love your videos 😎😎😎😎👍

The car is looking great. You're doing a good job. Keep up the good work.

Can’t wait to see the whole car primered love the videos Dan

Wow this nomad is looking awesome each episode 👏 great job on the build.

Awesome work Dan!

Dan just for your consideration colors glacier blue and shoreline beige . In my humble opinion the best two tone combo ever original for 1955 chevy. A painter friend of mine brought it to my attention chevy used the blue later on and called it marina blue but he said they left out the slight lavender tint . Thanks for sharing your amazing talents.

Love high build. Great video

Good job Dan. 👍

Wow roof looks great!

Been catching up on your old builds. You do good work.

It's looking good all the work is going to pay off.

That roof! Truly the best looking part of the VIN rescue WTG.
