- We finally have a the rust repairs complete on Mat Armstrong's classic BMW E24 and we show the finished product of the 3 stage powdercoating! We also show a small journey of this car and what it looked like vs what it now looks like. What a journey it has been and an enjoyable one at that! Its crazy to see the car all in 1 colour and with it being nice and glossy it really does set it off.
This is not the end of our journey just yet, we still have a good amount of work to do on this car, but sit back and enjoy the video.

Too easy, give me a challenge next time 😉
Could be the R8 build too sneaky little distraction 😮😮😮
Countach next???, did Mat go back and re-bid on that ... 🤫😆
Matt, you have saved a good BMW from the crusher. It had so many repairs that you would need a big bank account to move on with it. I'm sure you will do it justice with the final fit up.🎉🎉🎉
Hard work might beat talent but talent and hard work beats everything! Absolutely stunning work.
I can't believe that was even saveable. Just shows what can be saved. Great work!
Anything can be saved with enough time and money
if ur pockets are deep enough then everything is possible
What a Journey Ryan.... You completely knocked this right out the park, I hope a lot of would be welders and fabricators take some note's on the outstanding work you and YCR have done to Mat's Beemer... Have a Fantastic Christmas and all the best for you and yours in 2024.
I thought I was good then seen these guys........ Just another level altogether, always studying the vids for tips and tricks.
What a perfect job. and that bathtub white looks amazing.
Mega result guys what can I say,absolute artisan skills and it’s a credit to you all.
I’m sure Mat will be well pleased 👍
I remember all comments in the first video saying ”oh its not saveable, trash it, who would even repair this bla bla”……..Ladies and gentlemen, just check this piece of art now 😍……You have done a great job lad 👏🏻….Keep on!
I am speechless when I see this 635 series today. It was actually a solid lump of rust. Now it has been completely renovated and powder coated, which means that it will not have any rust for the next hundred years, I believe. It comes with another coat of paint plus rust protection which makes it so well protected. I am 100% sure that this will be like a brand new 635csi. This has been an exciting journey to follow. I can't wait for it to be completely finished. I can only imagine.
Hard work and dedication. Most of the people do not have an idea how much work you had to put in this project. Dirt, rust, noise, grinding, welding… great work and impressive result 🫡
Young Workers, Beat Hard Talent. Epic work from such young people & the editing is brilliant in first few mins showing the repair work. 👌🏽
U deserve more than a million subs
U will get there Ryan❤
The end result of that body is clearly amazing. You've reinvigorated my desire to own an E24!
I'm not convinced on the powder coating though.
I know it's a very hardy coating, but on trailers and coated steel frames I've owned, I've seen rust spread under the coating once it gets a crack in it.
I could be wrong and the coatings I've encountered may just be poorly prepped and low quality.
Hopefully that undercoat you applied first solves that problem. But for me, it would be either a zinc rich or 2K primer and a tough underbody coating.
Iv seen similar power coating failures, seems to be a very wear resistant coating but as soon as it gets a chip water ingress can be a serious problem.
Never seen a full car done before that’s quite an interesting concept certainly looks very nice atm be interesting to see how it lasts
I hate powder coating, its great for a while and then the rust happens under it and is cracks and falls off where the rust is.
Thermal Metal spray is the best way, Retro power do it and it becomes a part of the metal due to the way its deposited so you don't get anything between the coating and the steel.
Hopefully this will be durable and look as good as it does now in a few years time.
My thoughts precisely.
Astonishingly astonishing! Superb journey so far. Merry Christmas to you all.
You're a credit not only to the trade but your family. I think most dad's would be proud of the graft you put in and I see nothing but good fortune for you and all the lads. Being in sheet metal myself for over 30 years I know how hard it is so keep it up and I hope you reap the rewards guys. All the very best for the new year.
Such an incredible skill this, taking something as rotten as a pear fit for the scrap heap and totally transforming it like it’s just come off of the assembly line. Your not a fabricator, you’re a magician! 👏🏻🔥
You should be real proud of what you have achieved here,just pure class workmanship take a bow lads 👏👏👏👏👏👏
You’ve done an absolutely STUNNING restoration on this car!!
You deserve a huge pat on the back from M.A you have turned a rust bucket into a head turner, well done guys, amazing job 👍👍👍
It's got a lot of rust!!!! Haha Ryan I take my hat off to you. I have watched everything you have uploaded on this build😮. Because of you I bought a new welder and have tried welding my range rover 😢 no it's not as easy as you make it look😂😂 what a legend ❤
..and I made my Ford Transit
Beautiful video & progress! Thank you for all the hard work you're putting in. ❤
It’s a double WOW from me Ryan a superb job you have done with some help from ya dad?
If you wasn’t sure about restoration work you are now young fella!!!
When it’s finished BM will be wanting it for their museum as a fine example of how well they build their cars?
We know the truth Ryan!
You guys are awesome. You should do an MG meteo turbo or a nova 😊 my era cars but i love your content and your vids make a lot of people happy. Keep up the good work. Merry Christmas to you all.
Gooooood job. Congratulations. You did it!
By and far my favorite new channel!!! Your skill set is unmatched!
Merry Christmas YCR. Thank you for all your hard work.
Amazing 😍 love your work and dedication.
To me that's looks like brand new
Standing F'ing Ovation man. Well f'ing done. Just, mind blowing the attention to detail and work that has been performed. Just incredible.
Brilliant, modern art at its best, pure genius good luck and all the best for the future
Thanks for taking us on the Journey with you! Top job guys.
I’m really pleased you spoke at the end to discuss seam sealer etc as I was confused about the whole powder coating of the shell. Powder coating is all well and good but it can become quite brittle and when exposed (a chip or fracture for example) will blister and flake once it’s compromised. I liked that you will then seam seal it properly. Will you be applying a factory rubber compound seen on most modern shells to the underbody too beyond just the seams? You’ve done an amazing job on this and imagine if it sees little use the powder will look amazing and last. If it were to be back on the road properly, then I’d want to go that extra mile to add some modern stone guard rubber compound in as many places as possible. No hate here just wanting to know more. Looking forward to see more.
My thoughts exactly, powder coating is an unconventional way of treat the shell. Getting it phosphate dipped and painted would be more traditional. Powder coat is tricky to repair in the future especially on the panels. maybe it will be wrapped also.
Amazing job enjoyed following this series can’t wait till it’s finished
It's been a pleasure and an honour mate, to watch this series and watch your skills and confidence grow alongside the other cars you have taken on, hope you had a good one.
Dynamic...you never cease to amaze on every front. Thanks for spending your time for us to enjoy. Here is to next year and continued success and expansion.
Totally stunning job!! Loved watcing this. Thanks for the efforts and filming editing with the hours put in! I hope he takes this car to the next level and rebuilds it with modern parts and pushes it back into the future! Like full on cyberpunk style to make it a one off!!
Loved this journey so far the standard of work has been outstanding looking forward to the story continuing in the New Year. Hope Matt Armstrong appreciates all your effort.
I hope you're going to video you giving Matt his box of rust back. Well done. It's been great watching from the start.
Honestly unbelievable.
I've watched every episode, and I can't believe you've taken that pile of **** and turned it into this beautiful thing.
Incredible. Well done man.
The transformation is truly phenomenal!
What a fantastic job.

I literally thought it wasn't possible to repair the car when you stripped it down, and not only have you done that, it's better than when it was first built. What a quality job

It is just mind blowing what you have done to this car. Great job.
I do also powdercoat my stuff...... But not bigger then a sl1200mk2 turntable. Great job guys. Mat will be proud to see what you have done.
Incredible work you've undertaken Ryan, simply unrecognisable from the car Mat handed over to you. Amazed at the workmanship and the attention to detail. Well done to you! I hope Mat is as blown away with the results as all your viewers are!
Hurray for a job well done, Ryan! With dedication,a fair bit of extra ordinary expertise to boot! Congrats all.

What an absolutely brilliant job, something you can be truly proud of and the best advert you could ever have to keep you guys busy for ever.
I'm not sure I like the thought of what it's going to be used for needing a roll cage, it would be sacrilege to mistreat it after all your hard work but that's down to Matt.
Keep the videos coming thick and fast guys , I love them ...well done and best wishes.
GUYS, you are true CHAMPIONS !!!! I have look at some of your videos and see rust every where . You are able to turn this old rusty car in a brand new 635 CSI . It is a miracle and it is enjoyable to see . You can be proud of your work . Thank you for the video .
