You guys are incredibly inspiring to watch. I can't get enough of this resto. The gentleman who owns this car should be extremely proud his pride and joy is in your hands.
It’s always a pleasure to watch true craftsmen showing off their handy work. So many apprentices could learn bigtime from these two masters of their trades. Great show once again boys 👊👍💪👌
Hey Mick, I am keen to see how you did the dummy spot welds. Finished it off mint and could even trick the guys in the know. Excellent work as usual gents.
Great episode guys! I really like how the sills are flawless now and you would never know the condition of the original panels were in. Keep up the great work!
We all have a budget. Dam looks humid stay hydrated boys. Thanks for another episode. The poor Torana has been hacked on so many levels. Lucky you boys are repairing it. Don’t want to see it in the wrong hands again lol 😂
I feel for you guys working in this stinking heat. I live in Brisbane, and when I’ve done the mowing, or anything else outside, my shirts and duds are literally like I’ve been in a pool. The older I get the more I can’t handle the humidity. I’m enjoying the Torana build immensely. Good work. 🙂.
I have watched you boys from day 1 and you boys are true tradesmen. I would like to see what you can do with a big full wallet. Well done Mick on the sill and love the finish and Looking forward to see Darryl finish the door. And wow I seen how hot I actually paused the video 39 40. Piece out 🤙
Hoping when it's all done and sorted you tell us what the final bill is. I'm betting north of $80,000 BUT this car will be 500 times better than when it rolled off the production line. If only the same attention to detail was still out there. Sadly now it's very rare!
Hey Mick and Darryl, love watching the build and your explanations of the why and how of the repairs. I’m rapt that many of my repairs are similar to yours, albeit I don’t have the skills for file finishing. I have a question about the additional 2 x holes in the outer sills, look to be about 40mm? They dont appear on my 7/73 LJ coupe (not XU1) and I don’t recall seeing them on other Torries. Sorry don’t know which factory mine came from ( Perth car) but I’m the second owner, had it since 1984 and first to mess with the paint.
G'day, Some awesome work, guys. Mick, that sill really came up a treat. And Pop your decision to remove the inner door piece worked out nicely. 2 question's, Why do most trades remove the guard on your grinders. And secondly the small belt sander you use. What would be best to buy the air operated or the electric. So as always thanks for sharing ✌️ Peace from Melbourne/Pakenham.
Thanks @kevinhamling1963. We remove the guards because it gets in the way a lot of the time. We love air tools as you can always control your speed and they have plenty of power. Being in the trade over a very long time we have always used air tools. I think today it's a personal choice on battery power or air Kev. Thanks for coming back and watching 🙂
Do you blokes ever consider or recommend deskinning any of theses cars to catch any unseen rust problems? I understand it probably a massive increase in labour and inturn increases the cost,but considering the high level of your work I'd be disappointed in a few years if some unseen rust problem begins. Ol pops is a bit of a shit stirer,good to see
@@adamsonautobody mine actually fit really good after a few hours of tweaking lol. Perfect 5mm gap. Mine was more out of shape at the top also it bowed out not inward like the one you fit.
Wish you blokes were the ones that repaired my old LJ. Love the attention to detail!
Looking good, details like the spotwelds are what makes a good restoration.
your spot on @65cj55 👍
Another wonderful episode, perfection on those sils, I can’t believe what someone did to that door that was disgraceful, great job by pops and mick.
Yeh it's hard to believe. We will get it fixed up. Thanks for watching @buckminsterfullerene2294 🙂

Excellent work. Very interested to see your technique on the dummy spotwelds. Have previously seen a pencil eraser used on wet high build.
That's an interesting way to @mitchellwormington2304 lol. 👍

Hi @adamgowlett982 we just replicated what was there on this Torana.
The size is around 40mm holes.
Thanks for watching.👍
How did you do spot weld look?
I will have to show in upcoming episode 👍
That would be great, looking forward to it, thanks

@adamsonautobody
Thank you for getting back to me.
Much appreciated.
music at 4.40 is cool who is it?

Ol pops is a bit of a shit stirer,good to see
Are you going to paint it with the glass and window mechanism in the doors?? Hope the owner has some spare glass.
LOL nah @DavidMorgan-iu7zu we have to fit back on so we just saving some time. we will show in next episode.
Interested to know how you seal the inside of the door where you have repaired the damaged section. Is that where you use weld through primer?
How come you wear all the safety gear but no guard on the grinder a no no !!!
It's a different story when you are doing the job. The guards make it dangerous thank you for your concern.
I must have been lucky with my sill. I only had to straighten out the front 10cm or so.
That would be nice @seekndestroygaming. Unfortunately these where very average.
@@adamsonautobody mine actually fit really good after a few hours of tweaking lol. Perfect 5mm gap. Mine was more out of shape at the top also it bowed out not inward like the one you fit.
Cm or mm?
@@seekndestroygaming true hahaha good old aftermarket stuff.
@@Blanchy10 cm.
I'm wondering what sort of $$ you charged for a Resto like this
Australian Dollars - Bitcoin could be a goa 😂
Why didn't you take the door glass out of the door ???
We will fit the door back so we need it in there until finished.
