@@Automotiveolie for some odd reason I remember the starter motor was terrible to get out when in the car, the top bolt has hard to get to, it never went back on..... I remember this from 1978/9. Odd things that stick eh ?
@@peterbullen3347 I’ll try and stay away from the starter. I always remember doing a starter motor on a 318i e36 and that was a complete pain in the ass to do aswell. Always put off doing them
Love it. I've got my pop corn in and I'm following with interest. I could never afford a Sprint as a callow youth, I had a 1300TC instead. Not quite the same but good fun!
I’ve cut away the lower section and apart from so lower end corrosion it looks ok further up, I’m trying to avoid removing the wings as they’re the original ones with nice spot welds and good panel gaps
Hi man, loved your videos. Just wondering if I can apply as your personal editor. I would love to enhance your videos including thumbnails and any other elements that might be a great asset for your channel to grow exponentially. Pls let me know what you think!

I had a Sprint in late 70s, I managed to blow engine but rebuilt with friend, these cars were really quite fast for the day, loved it.
I’ve never worked on one before but must say it’s been quite easy to do so. Engine looks like fun too

The Old Dolomite Sprint takes me back I rebuilt one back in the day new body shell job fast little car when they came out.
Never worked on one before but looking forward to getting stuck in to it
Going to enjoy this, owned a few over the years so have a keen interest.
Videos should be quite regular for this project too.

They all drive the same if you drive it like you stole it 😂. I will say it’s fun to work on. Slightly less complex than the Range Rover panels
Nice job. Great metal fab too. I’m working on one for someone too so will be following this build 👍
Cheers! I’ve just got some new welding gear so hopefully the welds come out well
I like the Cavalier parked in front.
It’s a future project, just trying to track parts down for it
You may want to consider removing the wings to gain access to the inner structural areas that are prone to rotting out.

@@Automotiveolie I understand your predicament. I have the same issue. I’ve elected to remove the wings so I can to top structural sections.
Just came across the channel. How is tge work coming?
It’s coming along, hoping to get some filming and an update in for everyone in the new year.
