    Phil, after all of the refabricating you’re having to do for the restoration of Billy’s Range Rover, it seems to me that he will owe you about 100,000 pounds. 😂😂😂😂 As for you being done with the restoration by Christmas, no one cares. We enjoy watching you do something that you enjoy, and that❤ you’re good at. Life is short. Do what you enjoy. Happy Christmas from Mexico City. 🎉

    You are doing a fantastic Jon Phil. I’ve done that work here in the U.S for 49 years. And we have the same problem. The after market parts here in the U.S do not match up well to the factory sheet metal so it is a bunch of fiddling to get them to match the best they can. So knowing your doing the best you can with what you have to work with. As you folks across the pond would say. CRACK ON, onwards and upwards mate.

    My family can relate, we have been restoring and fixing cars for several generations. We also race and build our own cars. I remember a college roommate saying to my mother, while visiting my family, "I hate Linda". My mother said "what did she do now." and my friend said " she is changing her spark plugs. Girls didn't do that sort of thing back in my day. My uncle also had a Balmoral Range Rover and eventually sold it for quite a bit of money. We are enjoying your channel. 😎

    I really apricate you working on the Jeep.
    You have said in the past, "for you, it is a form of a hobby and a fun task".
    For me it would drive me bonkers.
    But what I like to do was watch someone grow Spiritually over months and years.
    Saying all that, it is relaxing to watch you at home/Pub/Garage.
    I'm so thankful that you are sharing your journey with us.
    Walking with you

    This was really interesting Phil. I am not much of a mechanic, but I love it when you make the sparks fly and then do the welding. I couldn't understand the cut out bits until you put the plate in the car, then it all made sense!! It's just like meccano ! You are a genius. 🥰

    Your going forward but rust and wrong parts need lots of adjustments to keep all square,three d chess for you Phil.Its sad to say owners take these cars places most would not dream of driving and are less inclined to clean the mud off regularly so corrosion setts in and all the extra articulation means mud gets deeper into frame.

    Sometimes you have to fab it to fit properly like mentioned after market parts don’t always fit as expected.Hubs has done with frames and parts on a Super beetle and a 67 mustang . Can’t wait to see when completed. Sure Billy will appreciate it as I’m sure he sees all you’ve done to get it there.

    Phil not seeing any rust on the frame from sitting out in the elements. So considering the model would be easier to find the missing part in UK or do you have many there in France? I know import export fees but do you have to create your own missing piece then install it to the frame?
