Hey mate, apart from the drivers floor, it's remarkably good for a 50 yo italian car haha

Thanks for the support!

Thanks for the support!

Thanks, getting there slowly.

Thanks for the support!

Hey mate, that was an idea however I think hammering in the lower curves after the "depressions" would distort them too much. It would be trying to shrink the sides of the depressions while stretching the curves. Not sure if that makes sense or not haha.

Hey mate, thanks for the support. The earlier episode were more of a video diary of what I'd been doing off camera. The more recent episodes are alot more about documenting the actual process. 60s early 70s is my sweet spot for car haha.

Thanks! Glad I could help.

Hey mate, yep mdf. I made sure to always have the mask on coz that dust is supper fine.

Thanks! The twin cam will be getting a full rebuild and upgrade in future episodes, so it will be quite a spicy little coupe!

Hey mate, thanks for the support! It videos were very basic back in the beginning haha more of a video diary style. Since then it's slowly morphed into showing the whole process. Gt1900 is definitely the master. I get alot of inspiration from him. Unfortunately now days it's often too expensive to do things the right way when it comes to car restoration, unless you do it yourself.

Thanks for the support!

@ it’s a inspiration to get going on my own rusty barges…

Thanks mate.

Could have tried that, though not sure how the plaster would hold up with the air hammer pummeling it.

​@@FISHERBUILTMore so just to make a copy of the floor then use another material to use as a buck .

Hey mate, already cracked unfortunately ha I'll be tackling that little gem of an area in a future ep.

Hey mate, I did have that thought initially, however the Spider floors are quite a bit different to the coupes. Maybe something to do with them being "roofless" and requiring a more rigid floor, just a guess.

Thanks mate! My mission is to get all the bodywork as close to factory as possible. Nothing wrong with using a bonnet as a floor if it gets the job done and you avoid a Flintstones situation haha Not sure if I'll be selling this first one in a hurry 😂 If all goes to plan, this is the first of many more builds.

Hey, thanks for the support, it really helps keep the motivation up! I've made sure to coat everything and the whole car will be cavity waxed after paint.

You should definitely jump into it! Are you planning a full restoration?

@@FISHERBUILT Yes full resto. (luckily my starting coupe is in better shape with straight frame rails ...lol) There is some accident damage in the rear, so your rear lower quarter work is super useful.

Glad you enjoyed it! This definitely wasn't the easiest first restoration project to tackle. All the hurdles will make it that much sweeter when it's finish.

Thanks, this was the 3rd attempt from memory. I've learned alot since then haha

Thasnk mate, definitely alot better than the rusted out section that I cut out.

Thanks mate. We're getting there slowly.

Thanks for the support. I'll keep making the videos if you guys keep watching!

Hey thanks for the support and comment. It's always sad when circumstances require you to sell a loved car but hopefully enables you to recreate it later in life.

Thanks for the support mate. All the encouraging comments keep me motivated so you guys are the ones keeping this build ticking over.

Thanks! It's been a pretty steep learning curve but loving the journey.

Thanks for the support from Ireland! Not sure if they're a true classic but I love the 124 coupe haha

Thanks mate, slowly getting there.

Thanks for the support!

Thanks mate, hours of welding is great practice haha

Agreed. Learning by making. I really like these channels more than over produced expert channels...

Thanks mate, I always appreciate the comments.

Thanks for the support! For me, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right.

Thanks mate, slowly getting closer. Now that most of the rust holes are done, it will start progressing alot quicker.

Indeed, it's on the list.

Thanks mate, it's slowly coming along.

Thanks mate! Glad I could help.

Thank you for watching!, though I'm not sure the way I do things is the right way, it's just the way I find works for me.

Haha, much protection with that footwear but alot cooler than boots on a hot day.

Hey mate, everything is fixable with enough time ,effort.....and patience. Glad the video help provide inspiration!

Hey mate, have been a bit slow on the upload lately. As I finish up the bulk of the metalwork and move onto engine rebuild, wiring harness etc the frequency of uploads will increase. I'd love to do an AC next. If a good one pops up I,d been tempted. Thanks for the support!

Thanks for the support, glad you're enjoying the build.

Hey, thanks for the support. Shame about the green machine, these 124s are getting pretty rare now days. All old Italian sports cars love spending time at the mechanics shop haha My goal is to learn as much as i can during the engine rebuild process so i can do most/all of the mechanics maintenance myself. Thanks again for watching!

Thanks mate, i feel bad for having such long delays getting videos out. I do a fair bit of work off the camera and i didnt want to just upload videos every 2 weeks showing the same content. I'll be all finished with the body work soon so the content will be more engine rebuild and wiring. These should be more frequent. Thanks again for the support.

Hey, thanks for the support! Im trying to make sure everything is done right and prevented from future rust. Once finished, this car will get all the love. Thanks for watching!

Hey mate, loved your latest video! I've been busy repairing other areas. Hopefully the next episode will be up this week! Too many holidays and not enough time in the garage!

Hey, thanks for the comment. I have done this in other places and probably should have used that approach here.

Thanks! As long as people like watching, ill keep uploading :)

I don’t seem to be able to comment via the main section but wanted to say how much I enjoy these videos. Your work is excellent, as are your video skills. Your channel isn’t flashy but it’s great to watch you transforming the car.

Thanks mate, keep on keeping on!

Thanks mate, it's comments like this and viewers like yourself that keep me uploading, so thank you.

Hey mate, definitely. I'll probably go in through the inner arch.
