When I look at the repairs you do... I'd look at it and have no idea where to start. Rust repair is a skill ( almost an art form ) that few can do well. Amazing work.
I like this video series. This is the way I make panels. Drawing, scribing, cutting, & bending right in the vehicle. I worked at a shop that brought a kid in that spent his day, drawing everything out in CAD, then running it through the CNC plasma table. Apparently, the shop likes modern technology, so I no longer work there. Oh, we'll. At least I know this kind of fabrication is still being done
A set of rollers and small press break would help you fabricate those small pieces a lot more efficiently. However you do an incredibly job. I’ve been in sheet metal all my working life and did my apprenticeship with a panel beater how could do amazing things with a hammer.
Makes a change I can watch this all the way through instead of skipping as I work nights and you always seem to release new vids just before I have to go to work ! 20:00 -> 05:00
Nice panel repair there, the sills must be the most difficult panel repairs on such a rusty vehicle, because of the door gap and the sill is holding all that weight above. One chomp at a time and the whole elephant will be done......"badda bim, badda ba". Lol🐞
Great work Ryan, can i ask, as you've been opening up box sections and multi layered areas it looks like the metal is untreated/not painted in any way, would that be because the cars being mainly hand built no painting or rust prevention happened until the bodyshell was complete?
the more you do .the less there is left to do. Amazing work bringing a classic like this back to life amazing orange one at Bonhams cars/ sports coupe chasis No l10A-10419
So for every 20 minutes of screen time that's like 8 hours of work? Every corner of the suspension supports, both rockers, floors, trunk, fenders(wings), rear quarters, lots of layers...so maybe 150 hours of fab time, that's $15kusd for a completed metal shell. Not completely insane. There is still tons of upside on this little gem! Good stuff!
Great video. Love seeing all the detailed work, takes me back to the old Suzuki videos. Yorkshire car restttorraations. Can i ask does replacing panels in small sections welded together have any disadvantages over using a one piece replacement panel? Strength etc?
Amazing work! Genuine question though, with this level/quantity of patchwork, how likely is it that rust will return again in a significantly shorter time?
Personally when ever i buy a car i obviously check for rust , then treat it using rust converter or fish oil and i check that my drain holes are clear at the bottom of my doors etc youve obviously have the skill to fix it good luck with it
Question: with so much Metal being replaced, is it really still a Mazda cosmo? Or is it like that one boat from the saying where it isn't the original thing anymore?
I had an uncle who back in the 80’s boasted he could weld body filler to rust in his business of dodging up old cars. This is a different level of work though
What happened to the BMW E24.....It's been a while since I've seen any updates. I understand that it's not easy to have so many projects going on. It's probably demanding. But the question is. Will we see more of the amazing E24?
I have a question based on my absolute lack of knowledge in topic of rust repair. Wouldn't be easier and faster to basicly cut off whole this rust and make new, whole part and not make it piece by piece?
you should call this car father cosmo as it’s so hole…ly 😂 😂 I admire your drive dude I know this is what you do and you are a top drawer fabricator but you must scratch your head sometimes on jobs like this ..great job 👍
I thought the Datsun and mats BMW were the worst rust buckets I'd ever seen but I think the Cosmo wins hands down. We totally need T-shirts with a disaster Datsun and catastrophe Cosmo on 😅
I wonder how Mazda-Japan would react if you send them these images… I mean the car is very rare and very iconic!!! If the end result is close enough to perfection they might be inclined to take part in some sort of party/congratulation/festivity that could be of bennefit and joy to all involved… imagine a millionaire paying an absolute fortune for this car!!! After which your work will be paid for generously but stil leaving a big sum for some form of charity…. This car being a very recognisible and unique design and, on top of that, one of so few ever made surely must mean something for the Mazda marketing department!!! It would be a winwinwin for all involved!! Imagine this very car being the IMACULATE centerpiece of a high-end auction at a major Classic Car Show…. You will be restoring cars forever… but probably at a much better rate!! Ballabing-Ballaboem!!! Just an idea…
Oh, it's not that rusty. A few small pieces of metal here and there and you can sell the car for new. And if you turn off the light and close one eye, it doesn't look so bad. So we're used to worse things from the Dursun disaster. Just one request: stop using the computer voice.😊

The car is so holy it should be called the Cardinal Cosmo.
A job for papa ryanitus lll.
On this car, even the rust has rust! What a daunting task you have undertaken Ryan, and sorry to say, there's definitely more to come! 😂😂
This car is a nightmare. Absolutely great respect for the work you are doing.
Absolutely a heroic endeavor.
When I look at the repairs you do... I'd look at it and have no idea where to start. Rust repair is a skill ( almost an art form ) that few can do well. Amazing work.
You guys are artists. Plain and simple.
Fantastic work, keep the updates coming 😎🤙
Really enjoying Ryans music during this repair 👍😎
BLOODY HELL . she's in good hands thou. really enjoyed
Hats off to you for saving this . I watch loads of car restoration videos, this is by far the worst car for rust I’ve seen. Amazing work 👏👏👏👏
Gran trabajo en el mazda, la traducción a español es genial, saludos desde Argentina.
One of my favorite cars on this channel. I have never seen one.
There aren't many cars you'd do this for but the Cosmo is a thing of joy and beauty. And I'm not even much of a rotary fan.
Very clever piece of work 😊
O legal é ver tudo sendo reconstruído.

I do love the technical phrases Ryan , 'swoopy swoop ' being my new favourite lol
It's the Boaty McBoatface of technical phrases
Wow that’s insane what you’ve uncovered at the front corner there
most people would be overwhelmed by this amount of rust.
Overwhelmed? I would have run out of the door screaming.
Truly you are an artist and craftsman. Amazing.
That's a daunting task.
este proyecto es muy entretenido de ver ,un auto que va a llamar mucho la atencion cuando este terminado!
You MUST save the pile of offcuts. That's going to be an amazing pile of rust. Impressive.
A set of rollers and small press break would help you fabricate those small pieces a lot more efficiently. However you do an incredibly job. I’ve been in sheet metal all my working life and did my apprenticeship with a panel beater how could do amazing things with a hammer.
I think they have both of those items. If they don't use them then I guess they know best.☺️
Wow, really not much left of this one, I suppose you have come this far, may as well see it through! Excellent work on such a complex repair.
This one has overtaken Disaster D for being your best series, thanks will be amazing when finished.
Makes a change I can watch this all the way through instead of skipping as I work nights and you always seem to release new vids just before I have to go to work !

Brilliant as always 👍🏻🇬🇧
Great job.
Mazda made a lot more of these than people thought, problem was they rusted away before they could get them to the showrooms.
Great work Ryan, can i ask, as you've been opening up box sections and multi layered areas it looks like the metal is untreated/not painted in any way, would that be because the cars being mainly hand built no painting or rust prevention happened until the bodyshell was complete?
Non vedo l'ora di vedere come farai a ricostruire quella parte visto che praticamente manca tutto. Buona fortuna 😂
the more you do .the less there is left to do.
Amazing work bringing a classic like this back to life
amazing orange one at Bonhams cars/ sports coupe chasis No l10A-10419
Good Video
Awesome car. But holy moly that shroud needs a clean out😳😳😳

VERY Nice work 🎉
Die Leidensfähigkeit muß bei euch Grenzenlos sein, ich würde das Handtuch werfen.
Definition of a catastrophe, " a collection of holes held together with rust" , Ryan , I wish you the best of luck, you'll need it
Personally when ever i buy a car i obviously check for rust , then treat it using rust converter or fish oil and i check that my drain holes are clear at the bottom of my doors etc youve obviously have the skill to fix it good luck with it
So with absence of structure, will next episode include fabricating bracing on the inside like what you did for the 914?
what a teabag ! :D
What weld thru primer do you recommend? I bought a copper one and its absolutely impossible to weld with
It almost looks like it lived in Southern Ontario! The rest of the cars here look like that at least! LOL
C'est du grand art...
It's a Sunday car, it's holey!
Unmajesticness.. love it 😂
Question: with so much Metal being replaced, is it really still a Mazda cosmo? Or is it like that one boat from the saying where it isn't the original thing anymore?
the paint is the only thing holding the rust together
At this rate, there might be less than 50% original metal left! Swiss cheese indeed!
Oh my god - you have to build the whole car - theres nothing left ...
One one of the last videos someone commented "Hand-built - twice". I think that's the best way to put it.
@@Ragnar8504 i agree
I had an uncle who back in the 80’s boasted he could weld body filler to rust in his business of dodging up old cars. This is a different level of work though
This is like the ship of Theseus. By the end of the restoration, is it still the same car? 🤔
Nice,trash to treasure.👍👍👍😎😎😎
👍
What happened to the BMW E24.....It's been a while since I've seen any updates. I understand that it's not easy to have so many projects going on. It's probably demanding. But the question is. Will we see more of the amazing E24?
I guess it's not just me who knows by now more or less where the balabing balaboom is going to be.. 😂❤
My Lord...soo much Cosmo in that Rust 😅
Так адски могла сгнить только мазда!
Даже опель не способен загнить!
В шредер ее конечно надо! 😆😂🤣
I have a question based on my absolute lack of knowledge in topic of rust repair. Wouldn't be easier and faster to basicly cut off whole this rust and make new, whole part and not make it piece by piece?
That's easy lol 😂 borderline pepper pot !
Seeing this thing makes me think Tim's car wasn't all that bad😂
24:20 you just found the antimatter. You could build a copy car on the side and change it for this one and would be less work.
Series title: YCR and the Cosmo Catastrophe
you should call this car father cosmo as it’s so hole…ly 😂 😂 I admire your drive dude I know this is what you do and you are a top drawer fabricator but you must scratch your head sometimes on jobs like this ..great job 👍
You need a large glass of a good malt whisky 😊 to help with this trauma and some counselling
Hmm... The Disaster Datsun has a rival lol...
😍👌
Rebuilding a car 6 inches at a time !!!
Are we sure this wasn't the pope's car?
You should call the car Oliver, because when you open a panel for rust the car shows "MORE"
I thought the Datsun and mats BMW were the worst rust buckets I'd ever seen but I think the Cosmo wins hands down.
We totally need T-shirts with a disaster Datsun and catastrophe Cosmo on 😅
Catastrofe mazda
The juxtaposition of majesticness and unmajesticness. Of catastropheness and uncatastropheness.
All this work must cost a fortune.
Basicly you have a blueprint to how to build a Cosmo
I hate to think what would have happened if someone had tried to jack the car up.
holy shite it looks like paper after the wasps have been eatting it for years
Hmmm a thousand piece jigsaw with no picture and some pieces nowhere near the correct shape - but what a picture it will be
That's a very crusty Cosmo
Memories of the disaster datsun...this is what ycr is all about! More Cosmo...
Drill holes that are too large to weld in their parts. Take a 4 mm drill bit.🤨
I would say around 6mm. He is doing around 10mm, which brings in a lot of heath when welding you don't want.
My goodness, this is a terrible car.
Используйте пожалуйста средства защиты органов дыхания. Дышать всем этим плохая примета.
That car needs to be scrapped.....
凄い修理です。 日本語版を出されるよりも日本語字幕を出してくださる方が嬉しいです。 頑張ってください。
Not sure you're going to complete this one..... there doesn't look like there's much to build on
About as futile as 914
Music to distracting damnit!!!
I wonder how Mazda-Japan would react if you send them these images…

You will be restoring cars forever… but probably at a much better rate!!
Ballabing-Ballaboem!!!
Just an idea…
Mazda has previously bought cars from these guys to put in their collection.....and RX3 if memory serves.

No downloads for the original , only in German for me 🤮
bitte ohne deutsche übersetzung!!!!! grausam

I think you hate doing this car!
Should have just gone to the scrap yard
Sorry Ryan
dust to dust ashes to ashes
