How much faster will Leroy go with this body versus without?
Holeroy!
ðŸ‘ðŸ½ðŸ‘ðŸ½
Fastest pass 6.7
Can not wait for this on the car . Watching you al the way from south africa
Hibachi Auto Body t-shirt with the quote "I paint helicopters and El Caminos!" goes hard I think 🔥🔥🔥
Yes.
The return of Hibachi Auto Body !
Next video is gonna be titled "just destroyed Leroy's new fiberglass body" 😂😂😂
Should've asked for the mold to put it on the wall at the shop 🙂
I thought your 500 E was going to be done by now! Looking forward to an update Cleetus. Thanks
Feel for that fella spraying that gel coat 🥴 it’s hot in normal clothes, being in that booth full PPE is brutal
Call the two guys that do the RC car rigging an have them RC build the foam plug so you can have a life size RC car @cleetusM
I can smell that from here.
Thats sick. Hell Yea Brither
Reminds me of rc body's 😂
I gotta say this, that dude with the mullet perm. That’s phenomenal. That takes something else to rock a mullet perm.
I wonder if the body is going to stay on, or we see leroy body on/off
Lifting the respirator to talk kinda defeats the point of it lmao
Hopefully cleet had them make a second body just in case
Let’s goooooo!
As long as you stay off the wall it should last a long time!
What does it smell like in that room? Thanks for showing this whole process. Cool stuff! And I love Cleetus and team interest in learning things and willingness to just dive right in!
That is awesome way to KOOL !!!!!!!
7:32 bro thinks he’s Adrian Newey. Lol
Turn the foam plug into a giant rc car 🚗 😂
Any updates on the helicopter
Are you planning to run a TA Funny Car?
Regarding the drawings of the completed shell, does anyone else see a frog sticking its tongue out? 😆
Man Cleet, put a mask on all the time around MEK, that stuff is nasty for you.
Admittedly hard to watch the chop process in the mold, i usally pre spray over the gelcoat w/reson before laying chop.
Cleetus needs the bring back the OG crew james and cooper to be on the camera daily. George Try’s to hard to be funny saying random shit agreeing to everything cleet says and repeats everything.🤦ðŸ»â€â™‚ï¸

I used to work in a fiberglass shop that made showers, spas, and tubs.
Gel coat was my position, it was kinda fun.
We need a Consuela update!!
It blows my mind the way Leroy went from a cut up "meh" Vette to an absolute legend and much loved icon. I am absolutely STOKED to see the body on and Leroy screaming down the track with this body on it. Buckle up folks, it's gonna be a wild ride!
6,210 on leroy with that aero ðŸ‘ðŸ»
now make it carbon. easy right?
Not a fan, at all. For me the cool thing about Leroy was the skeleton frame/body abd the 6MT. This takes away most of the allure for me, and I don't really care how much faster it is now, if I wanted to just watch fast cars I can watch a million other faster ones.
Take the Leroy foam plug to freedom factory for some lawn art
George was doing a bad job at recording the progress had me yelling at the screen
As someone who was a chopper gun operator before moving into quality control. I love that Cleetus showed the fiberglass process. I love that he hopped in and chopped some himself.
You need to save the foam plug, put it in an old semi trailer. I would also like to suggest that you retain a copy of the CAD data in a generic file format, IGES, STP, or XT.
The mold would look good at the freedom factory
Clickbait, it's far from done!
This is awesome those guys smashed it out the park!
Managed to make a firebird out of a corvette lol
I’ve never seen fiberglass sprayed before and once he started getting a good rhythm going and the speed was dialed down a little bit I kept saying “holy shit.“ to myself watching that glass lay down. Looks so weird to do and going into/coming out of the gun.
U was just talked about on nascar xm radio chanle 90
