Wow, wouldn’t expect so much rust removal, it’s normal for EVO’s from the impression I get - in a million years I wouldn’t have thought to check this out on any purchases. 👍 great vid Mr Lockwood. This vids worth its weight in gold.
Dave is an absolute legend, went out in his track saxo when he had it fully stripped and cammed. He worked on my mini back in the day Top lad Dave Aaron.
All the effort and hard work being put into Eva now will be well worth it. Catch the rot now before it’s terminal, you will be able to enjoy her for a lot longer after this and also in the knowledge she is strong and robust where it really matters! No1 what’s a failure on their rear end 😂. Loving the content and it’s great to see the car making progress with solid workmanship.
Complaining about having to spend £170 on expensive parts! It's an Evo mate, and how many free parts have you got lately? Bout time you paid for something ;)
William Love yeah mate nice one. Try seeing Jap performance imports ltd on Facebook. I’m the director of the company and get 20 evos in a month lol. Check us out. Send us a message.
Just had a complete underneath restoration on my IX, it looks amazing. Was very lucky as there was no rust at all on my car when the underneath was stripped down. I have done it for longevity and because I am a perfectionist.
Blimy that Evo is younger than my L200 and surprised the sub frame had rotted in one area...but a quality job on the repairs..👍👍👍...bet that will cost a few Bob..😎😎 .being a skint I just took the tub off my L200 and cutting out the rot and welding in new steel...got to do the same to the chassis...would love to take it to this place and have it done...hope we get to see the diff repair...
Good job with that rust looked good. Like all Japanese cars engine built like tanks but body on the other hand attracts rust like nobodies business. This guy seems brilliant at his job really thorough.
He's done a great job welding that up, done something similar myself before and I know how much work it takes, would have taken me a lot longer than that lol.
great video lee, when you say expensive do you mean £2k-£3k or £1k-£2k? also do motion motorsport offer any discount codes /offers in conjunction with you? i would like the same done to my 2007 hawkeye sti underneath (inspection/report and plan of action etc) cheers
If we halved taxes in the UK, things wouldn't seem so stupidly priced. For most people to buy one of them £500 driveshafts that would be two weeks work easily.
Stressful and expensive, but worth it 100% such a legendary car and a future classic, so looking after it now will 100% be worth it in the end 💯 I'd say restoration of a car like this is equal if not more important than any mod 🤜
Great vid Lee, now it's looking solid. Got some on mine to get done next year before MOT. I'm crapping myself about what else they find & the costs :0(
Good on you for spending the money and putting it right Lee... unfortunately this is what put me off evos, viewed 5 of them from 12k- 20k and all were rusty, didn’t personally want to buy someone else’s problem
All part of owning a car but looking good Lee , im trying myself to do my wife's 92 wrx sills arches and inner arches just a shame I wont have it on a vid , people scrap better but its sentimental value outweighs it all. some tough times ahead haha
Rust, that's nothing, you want to take a grinder to a Mk6 Transit. Mines just had a new sill put on. Every year, EVERY year it needs welding, and it's waxoiled to fuck! 🙈
Father Jack Hackett can’t really blame the seller, if previous mots haven’t shown any corrosion throughout its life who knows, have to do an mot check 🤣
Mate that's wicked that mans defo not bungalow got stuff upstairs lol defo treat yourself and get eva on track at trax just to feel car be like whole new car great vid as per
u think evo parts are expensive...try finding and paying for a RS mk1 front grill lol only a matter of time before the front end is seized too , might as well get it all done in one hit...
Don’t worry patreons will pay for it! 👊🏻
Wish I knew a mechanic like this really knows his stuff and genuine guy as well 👍
What a guy Dave is. Why can’t more garages be run more like this. So knowledgable and so modest about it
Atleast you know it will be solid for many years now, so it's not exactly a bad thing this has had to be done 🤙💯
I really appreciate how positive you are about the whole thing
What a guy! Love watching fabrication like that - certainly a level or ten above your standard MOT welding!
Yea thats a bodge.....not fabrication.

So glad I bought a clean fresh import. Keep up the good work 😊
Love the mk1 golf in the background.

A rusy Evo?
Never!

At what point does he come across jealous? ......
Kieron Carberry hahahahaha
Joe king you keyboard warrior Lee is a peppered leopard living at home and moaning about £170
Breaks my heart seeing eva like this :(
you obviously never seen an evo before
Best thing you have ever done, she is going to be an absolute demon for many many years to come !!! Big up my guy 👌😂
Oohhhh yeah my old scrap made the cut. 14:15 😎
Really wanted a evo for years but after watching that I'll stay clear. Glad your spending the money and getting fixed she's a lovely looking car 👍
William Love hey get a freshly imported one from Japan. They have ZERO rust! Not even undersealed so can see original underneath.
@@n2caddirect164 thanks for that mate ill have a look never even thought of the imports but least that way id get a solid one
William Love yeah mate nice one. Try seeing Jap performance imports ltd on Facebook. I’m the director of the company and get 20 evos in a month lol. Check us out. Send us a message.
Great vid lee, well worth the money and effort. Those guys know there stuff.
All the best.
Being a mechanic I love seeing these kinda videos
Can't get over the colour of the Evo, it's sooooo nice
Daves awesome, hes done 2 m32 boxes for me over the years, never had an issue since 👌👌
Lee and Eva are back! Get in!
That video was gold being melted and remade, my evo needs welding too, great beneficial video lee!!! 💪💯🙏❤️
Yes stigy
Jimmy Khan yes bro hope your well🤣🙏❤️
Well done mate for sticking with it , will be worth it when all fixed 😁
Good video Lee. "My world" Rust damage repair, section making and restoration work is what I do as a sole trader, been doing it for more than 20 years
EVO coming back to life 👌🚗🔥
Good idea getting the rust dealt with rather than it really digging in and getting worse , good weld job
Worth every penny mate 👍 and top work by him really knows his stuff
Evas long awaited return! Bet you've missed her Lee! Keep up the content pal.
Just had a complete underneath restoration on my IX, it looks amazing. Was very lucky as there was no rust at all on my car when the underneath was stripped down. I have done it for longevity and because I am a perfectionist.
Looks like a good job and worth the money to get it done right instead of falling apart after a year. Good finish with zinc primer and shutz.
Proper job, well done!
I think that was a bargain considering all the work. Proper job.
Hi lee been a fan for many years now and loving the content. Keep up the good work 👌😊
Tbf that weld repairs very decent and give years of service respect to motion 👊
More rust than the weasley family
Great video man....very educational. She be brand new when finished
Satisfying vid all clean painted

We need some more avant videos lee. The wait is killing me
Would be nice for him to come to the US and do this for my evo 🤕🤕🤕 same exact spots on mine too
Dave seems a solid mechanic and fabricator. New life coming for the Evo - That rot was pretty extensive - What year is it?
Raljix if I remember it’s a 2004
It's getting there son . happy for ya Lee

Did you have a look under the car before you purchased it Lee? I. E underseal etc...
It’s good that you’ve got it sorted now, theses cars are only gonna go up in value for sure. Why was the other chassis leg like then?
Exciting stuff Mr Lockwood.. Need to get my E60 undersealed ASAP!
Just the rite guy misses nothing. Better for the long run @ #Lockwood
great video lee, when you say expensive do you mean £2k-£3k or £1k-£2k? also do motion motorsport offer any discount codes /offers in conjunction with you? i would like the same done to my 2007 hawkeye sti underneath (inspection/report and plan of action etc)
cheers
second hand wheel bearing ?
The biggest problem in Uk is that every day rain,and all the cars is cover in rust under...
Also good work mate keep up!!

The cost was inevitably going to be costly for the parts that needed removing and rebushing
How did he manage to get a colour like that on his car?
Jess would be so proud. 🐈
You bought a rust bucket lad
Is that clio diffuser going spare that's by the door? 👀
Soooo how much did that repair cost??
Good job lots a life left in the evo 🚘🚘😀👍
Long live the titanic
Why is Jesse's car in there?
Great vid Lee, now it's looking solid. Got some on mine to get done next year before MOT. I'm crapping myself about what else they find & the costs :0(
Will this be on the road for Nov 3rd?
🚙
😉
That dynamos brother great videos bro 👌
Thank god there’s only 3 skins and not one more lol 😂 good to see it’s on the mend 👍
Time for a Change
Good on you for spending the money and putting it right Lee... unfortunately this is what put me off evos, viewed 5 of them from 12k- 20k and all were rusty, didn’t personally want to buy someone else’s problem
Wicked video man 👀👊👊
They could of at least but welded the new metal together and linished the welds so it's a smooth invisible repair instead of over lapping it .
Need to see that mk1 golf 😍😍😍
All part of owning a car but looking good Lee , im trying myself to do my wife's 92 wrx sills arches and inner arches just a shame I wont have it on a vid , people scrap better but its sentimental value outweighs it all. some tough times ahead haha
Quality Job. Would take me a month to do that and it would still be wonky 🤣
Might as well spend the time and money while all that is off! Will drive mega after all that work
That’s not to bad ford rs500 cosworth parts are very and I mean very expensive but wow that’s a lot just got a baring
Rust, that's nothing, you want to take a grinder to a Mk6 Transit. Mines just had a new sill put on. Every year, EVERY year it needs welding, and it's waxoiled to fuck! 🙈
Should go find ricer miata
Get out in that Clio 200 for a review if they'll let you! 👀
Great vid
Coming on good. Love them in this colour
It’s like the car is getting its pelvis fixed ready for the legs to go back on 😂👌🏻
Soooo is this a common problem with evo’s Genuine question guys
Rust? Yeah
A happy Bambi I meant on the back end after doing a little bit of research I agree with you it’s very common indeed
Does anyone else stop everything there doing tell this misses to shut up and leave me alone as soon as you see lee's uploaded ? 🤣
@@jamiew5211 😂😂😂
River Miata and Tommyfyeah were just at Cpp
Looks like the seller sold you a shed! 🧐😲
Father Jack Hackett can’t really blame the seller, if previous mots haven’t shown any corrosion throughout its life who knows, have to do an mot check 🤣
I'm suprised a place like motion would use something as crap as hammerite shultz.
She's gona feel amazing to drive once she's done under body will look nice and clean to
Sounds like a Formula 1 car
That's some size pimple growing on the side of your face sir
And I thought your scubby was a wreck looks like this is the same no wonder it was cheap pmsfl
Your Diff might have a hairline crack if it does then its one launch away from breaking .thats what happened to mine.examine further
Love the guy working on your car mate
1:00 Eva's at the dentist 😂
It’s unusual to see a Mitsubishi that rusts! Usually they are bulletproof?
Colin Prince lol
Not sure if serious.
Time for a new car now this can’t go on
he’s here all week peeps!
They’re terrible Colin, I had a 5 about 12 years ago & it was rotten even then.
I've got a Pajero & after 28 years she is rusting.
LW and evening Stella's 👌🏼🍻
I ate me butties ages ago
Mate that's wicked that mans defo not bungalow got stuff upstairs lol defo treat yourself and get eva on track at trax just to feel car be like whole new car great vid as per
You think evo parts are expensive, I had to pay £1k for billet engine mounts for my rs3 😂
Yeah he's a mug because he buys good quality parts for his rs3 your a mug if you skimp on parts
I like rusty spoons
