Rob , had a word with ITV your replacing Coronation street Mon ,Wed ,Friday 🤣🤣 Content is so good and you two do make me smile , ratings would go up tenfold Lol . Keep it coming boy's .👍
When you are respectful towards people in the trade and give them good business you always reap what u sew my friend hence those good lads removing the axle in anticipation of your arrival
Loving the vid on the Fords, including the Ka! That car in particular was so ahead of its time - it fits into 2021 as well as it did in 2012!
Your a star Rob,
" this car all the bits on it climate control, electric windows, USB.....broken seat "
🤣🤣🤣
that seat tilt looks like it came out of the mk6 fiesta parts bin -done hundreds of those buggers...
Bit of sad nostalgia for me, this one. My dad had a 2009 Ka Zetec (from new) in midnight black , (only 23,000 miles on it this year), it was his pride & joy, and was my privilege to clean it for him. Looking forward to seeing this one done.
I don’t know why I’ve got a tv I just keep watching you two .keep up the good work 👍🏻
I know this is a long shot for you, but I knew a guy in Portugal who converted metal bedded pickup trucks to wooden beds to comply with strange Portuguese tax rules. (A wooden bedded truck is classified as a farm truck and can legally be fuelled with red diesel and it also attracts tax breaks). Last time I was there, his yard was full of discarded steel beds for just about any pickup truck you can name. Depending on how far you want to go with this, he is almost certain to have what you want. I still have contacts in Portugal so I can find out more if you are interested. To get a bed transported back to the UK would be much cheaper than you might think.
those seat handles always break on mk6 fiestas and look very similar and easy to replace handle as long as you dont break the cable plenty of vids on them of there the same
The last car wash was so much nicer to watch
As well as climate control and chrome door handles the Titanium model also has a sub-woofer under the drivers seat - my daughter loved hers for this feature!
Have never been near one of these Ka's so a revelation that actually it is a 500. Was a fan of the original Ka from years back. Enjoyed seeing the changeover procedure. Thank you.
Looking forward to seeing part 2
Hi Rob and Chris, like these KA'S, colour suits it too. Looks like another nice flip, do like the mixture of this more run of the mill car and the barn finds, Hilux etc you have going on, keeps it interesting. Cheers, Alex.
I agree, the mix of different cars and different flavours (pickups, vans, 4x4s, little compacts like this, hatchbacks, salons and SUVs) keeps it interesting
Going to be a great 1st car for someone. Looking forward to seeing the other projects
Hi Chris why don't you get some wheel skates for when your recovering damaged cars? 👍🥸
Salvage Rebuilds & Kent Auto…a match made in heaven 😍
Love watching you changing rear quarters and seeing how you achieve the end result. Lovely colour on that Ka.
Rob I agree with Chris sell the hi lux, you got so much going on, will be good spares or repair for someone.
We used to use wheel skids when i was doing recovery, might be an idea to get a pair Rob. think we got them from machine mart, long time ago so might not be right 👍
Please finish off the Hilux, will such a great project to watch.
Any updates on the LSE ?
Yes done like a pro un loading and driving into into the workshop
Rob, I know I have mentioned it before but use a plastic plate of some description between the wheel/tyre and the road/surface then the offending wheel/wheels slip like a hot knife through butter. You can fork out and buy a set of "Slippery Jims" from the AA that they use with a hard area for forcing them under stuck wheels or jack up to place them under non-revolving wheels.
FYI 14:31 pure copper isn't legal for brake lines in North America, in North America, legal brake lines are a copper nickel alloy. A pure copper brake line tends to crack after a short time in service due to vibration and work hardening of copper.
They're perfectly legal here in the UK 😉👍
Believe it or not it's legal to use copper in UK but why would you given kunifer is only slightly more expensive. Mind you a car will fail its UK MOT if it has headlight washers fitted and they don't work ...it's a mad mad world !!
It’s sold in a roll as brake line I have always use it 👍
@@srukOnce upon a time we all thought the world was flat - and we used to get about using steam power. Cupro nickel brake pipe sold in a roll too - much safer and better product...... gives you piece of mind - Personally I don't think it's worth scrimping on brake jobs but it is legal in the UK at the moment so the choice is yours....
I’d love to see the hilux finished
I would give that axle a wire brush and a clean then get some black under seal spray and give it a few coats. It would help to reduce the corrosion.
Nice job guys on the ford ka, I love Ford’s they are so easy to work on, plus lots of cheap bits.
Great video salvage rebuilds, great work Rob and chris, great little car, nothing more satisfying that cleaning a car after you've worked on it, will look amazing when finished 👌😀👍
Hope you both have had a good weekend and you are staying safe and well
Looking forward to the eventual blooper reel Rob, introduced by Chris armed with a clipboard and in the style of Dennis Norden! 🇬🇧😄👍
Another nice little car being sorted nicely by you both
Bonnie little thing should have a nice little touch out of it,, always a good seller right colour, right spec,,job done,
Another lovely little car when repaired, always a joy to see how things are done up close and in detail. Better than Wheeler Dealer guys 👍
I would second that
And no annoying Mike Brewer.
@@GaryB007
Or no fake buyers with names so obvious nobody would name their kids them.
Totally agree. This over Mike Brewer any day!
@@GaryB007 yeah soon as it went to America I stopped watching it went downhill very fast for me
Great spec.... Air con.. USB... Broken seat 😜😜😜🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣
The diversity and down to earth workmanship of this channel in my opinion is second to none!
No problems getting it off the truck for Chris 😃 looking forward to seeing you repair this as normal you will do a proper job with your attention to detail!! 👍
Always liked the Plum Purple...
All the force of the hit has gone through the wheel / nub / axle.... the bodywork is just tinfoil.
The damage looks drastic, although I’m sure you two guys will work your magic, and have this car looking like new in no time!!❤️.
Mid 60's VW Beetles used to use the spare wheel air pressure for windscreen washer, why it is not used more often is a mystery?
Another great video guys just thinking you keep putting items in the description you should make an amazon store so if people do buy it from your store you get a percentage just a thought 👍👍👍
Not sure if anyone else picked up on this but the old SP flaring kit on the bench looked to be SAE "double flare" which is fine for the M10 female connecting to the existing steel line but the flare attaching to the hose on Fords is usually a male M10 and these are not SAE but DIN ISO "bubble" flares so as to properly "seat" in the hose union. Did you have to crank that down hard to get it to seal or were you lucky and it sealed on the double flare??? 🤞
I always carry a bottle of washing up liquid to move vehicles with sized wheels, squirt on the floor and washes off when done. No good for dirt or gravel but good on a nice bit of concrete or smooth tarmac.
Great video as always enjoyed the brake bleeding part . Good old mark down down Kent autos . And Chris is right about the hilux if you can't find a bed either change of plan or cut it loose content aside it's a business your running we all understand that . Keep them coming
Hi Guy's . Had no idea the Fiat and Ka were identical .And £750 for the quarter panel ! What a rip ! Thanks Rob.
Nothing but admiration for what your achievements,recyclable perfection❤️
Love this channel fellas the simple format appeals, not dramatic statements or crazy music and editing. Hope you can keep the vids nice and simple in the future love the format
Mondays , Wednesdays and Fridays . We love watching you guys . Interesting ,informative and some humour thrown in for good measure.Please keep it up Rob and Chris .
That paint - Hot Magenta - was a cost option and it is applied considerably thicker than standard colours.
Great looking little car Rob and a Titanium model to boot 👌🏻 so nicely loaded speck. My grandad 👴 would have said £700 for a rear quarter !!!! 😮, in my day for a shilling you went to cinema, got 4 pints 🍺 and a fish & chip supper 😂😂, yeah inflation what a bummer 👍🏻.
Nice work guys bring back memories of using ezbleed 30+ years ago great tool especially bleeding systems on your own. keep up the excellent content cant wait for your next video.
Hello Rob and Chris,
A new video just in time for my tea....😀
Looks like about 70 pence there so far..noice..
As ever, thanks guys,
Cordialement,
Sealey do a locking wheel nut remover kit sx299 exactly the same as dynomec around £130 great bit of kit works every time.
Missing locking wheelnut keys must be a PITA for many salvage repairers ! Great video and as ever its Kent Auto Salvage who supply many of the parts to get these projects sorted. The brake bleeding was interesting need to do this job on my car so think I'll be getting one of these kits.
So we have discovered your kyptronite....brake pipes....so you two are human after all heheh.......another interesting video guys. Have a nice weekend.
Tray back the hilux…. Or a secondhand “ally backs” type 👍🏻 these trucks are worth a fortune as long as they’re working…. And awesome fun. Trust me I have one myself 😁. Keep up the good work fellas… good job with the channel. 😎👍🏻
I really want to see a tray back on the Hilux. That truck body you have just sitting there is modular construction so it can easily be cut down to size
You could do the hilux with an enclosed back on for landscaping/tree surgeon etc? That would sell a treat.
Good little car, should be interesting to see what happens with the repairs. Everything forward of the B pillars okay 👍🏻
Are you aware of the passenger under seat storage? Not all of them have it but if you gently lift the front of the seat you might find something in it!
Copart fork lift drivers all the best !!!
Good to see the brake bleeding, not that complicated, always though it was a dark art :-)
What can you say when you've watched seems likes many hundreds of your videos guys is simple, don't change a thing and keep them coming.
I like the fact you keep changing up the cars while still keeping a few vehicles one the queue. Would like to see maybe another day or two on the rover classic but I realize it is a project not a car to sell quickly ! 🇨🇦👍
Love then Ka’s bargain cars compared to the 500s,and blush is the best colour 👍
It’s hot magenta?
@@scotty197878 mine was blush
Agree me aunties got one
@@makavelimotorsport6165 lol if you're into that sort of thing
Ypsilon is even cheaper and 5 door 5 seat.
Very tidy little Ka , fantastic content and really looking forward to the next one 👍
Terrific video as always guys and can't wait to see how you repair that quarter panel - surely that's a lot of work?! Also, have started watching RUclips on my shiny new smart TV, but that sadly means I can't comment (watched this one on my laptop), so just be aware of that if your viewing figures keep climbing but number of comments gradually declines. We are watching you on the TV, and your content is way better than a lot of the programmes on the main channels!
Nice not to see it not being a 500
Got bored of those ones 🤣🤣🤣I do know it’s difficult finding cars at right price abs there’s probably millions of them about but living tbe content just latley especially with the barn finds you got in loving them would love to see content of Chris little belingo being done 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽love the colour of the KA it’s unusual
Hi Rob and Chris great video and great looking little ka. Least you won't have to regas the air con lol. Can't wait for next exciting episode thanks.
Hi rob & Chris, that KA will be a nice little motor when it’s finished, your channel and content is better than cracking mate that I religiously watch all your videos I’ve even got my neighbours to watch them and they really enjoy watching them, keep them videos coming 👍
the little ford is great, can't wait to see the next video on it, re the toyota, put a cabstar body on it, just need shortening
The Ka has the same running gear as my 2011 Panda 1.2 and its good on juice and goes well, had I not needed 5 doors I might have considered one. I'm with Chris on the HiLux, get it gone as I for one had forgotten that you had it so won't be missed.
Put a 50 Cal on the hi lux . And the ka is a fist 500. Hopefully it might stop the ka rusting. Never thought I'd say that about fiats
Hi,
The KA will be a nice little car.
Not sure if you can, but can you show the best way to get a locking wheel nut off if you don’t have the correct tool to fit locking wheel nut.
If you can great, if not due to maybe compromising the security side of things.
Love all the content you guys do, totally hooked.
Cheers Gary
Loved the wheel trim skate. Great car for the channel, love this type of salvage, most people run a mile when it needs a rear quarter.
Top tip for you guys… if you ever have the brake hydraulic system apart, hold the brake pedal down with a bar or piece of wood against the seat. This will stop the loss of fluid 👍
I love when you say. “well, that’s the theory…”. Cracking video, many thanks. I think it’s great when you bring cars back to life instead of them going off to the scrappers….
Ive watched your Videos right from the start i think, and even after all this time they are still great. Keep them coming Rob and Chris.
Neat little runner, will come up a treat!
Another cracking project always great to get a notification of a new video from easily one of the best channels on RUclips thanks Rob and Chris for the video look forward to the next one
How about putting the cherry picker back on the hilux so you can get some use out of it while you find a bed for the hilux and an engine for the suzuki?
Suzuki has been repaired Rob mentioned it some time ago
Brilliant video, car damage looks worse than I think it actually was, great job, very informative and interesting, till the next one guys 👋🇬🇧
@salvage rebuilds Rob loved your copart walk around there's someone in America that I follow dose that very interesting indeed nice to see you doing a English one. Nice little car you have to restore nice one guys 👍
I’ve heard on other YT channels about the similarities to the 500 , apparently traders go under and paint the rear axle and sump(1.2 engine) as they rust even on newish cars, the sumps are so thin they soon rust through….😳
Try looking for the locking nut under the passenger seat base, it lifts up with storage compartment underneath
great content , more fords please maybe mondeo 's
This should be on tv , brilliant channel.
I'm sure it's gone by now , but I'll have that Hilux as is
I'll put a camper body on the back mate 😉
I've got a demountable camper that'll go on and I can get a couple of toolboxes fabricated for each side 😁
mine was a 59 plate ka more or less same damage ,insurance wrote it off, and let me buy it back for a whopping £37
Wow £37
£37 😂
That's amazing!
£37-I hope you tried haggling it down further !
Oh poor bubba 🥺 same colour as mine so can’t wait to see it all done!!
I wish I had my own space to tinker on cars.
Also, if you’re looking for a name for it, I suggest Barney (same as mine)😋
Certainly is a nice colour. My daughter has a 2012 Mondeo diesel Titanium. Her wheels are very similar, if not the same as the ones on the Ka, except they are five stud not four. They do look good. Oh, sell the Toyota to the highest bidder. Splash a bit of cash on the missus, she'll like that.
Chris is a very very knowledgeable man. Rob obviously has got a keen eye on what he buys and the finances but Chris, wow, that man is bloody clever. I absolutely love this channel, these boys are definitely 10 steps ahead of all the other channels who are trying to do the same thing!!! Brilliant...🙂👍
Great video guys always entertaining, again loving it 👍👍👍👍
hope you repaired back this ford ka mate.put back on road and do some service it mate.from jesri from malaysia
Cracking video as per usual, what was that Chris …. A wise man once said ….SELL IT 👌🇬🇧
a nice little motor nice specification
Nice video guys and looking forward to the conclusion.
Chris is right. Cut your losses with the HiLux so you can concentrate on more worthwhile projects.
Have a great weekend. It’s raining here in Lockdown Sydney ☔️
So far so good when I saw the thumbnail I can't believe how far you got in this first Video. Making it look easy Street 👍
Good video rob
Ehhh hilux make check plate flatbed you won’t lose cover in black bed liner 👍 loads ppl looking them
How about fuel tank fitment & getting golf running?Then its handy to move about the yard as a runner & finish at a later date.👍
We are on the golf 👍
When am removing the security nuts with an outer ring I get an ordinary steel nut and mig it onto the end of the stud, so the heat from the welding also helps if a gorilla has tightened them.....
Didn't know they shared a lot of bits with the fiat 500, learnt something new today. 👍😁
