I think the conversation that Nat alluded to with Stu is one of the reasons why you guys produce such works of art. When you are reassuring your staff that they are doing a great job and it’s just their incredibly high standards that makes them feel deflated after a challenging day, you know you have a passionate team who demand perfection from themselves. The Guys are a real credit to you both Nat and Cal.
I can imagine the frustration as Stu tries to get his ducts in a row......
😄 Lol.
😂
Well done, you. 😄😄😄
Very good….😁
“Getting his vents in a blow,” surely?
I've been watching these videos since the beginning and I am still staggered by the quality of the cars built, attention to detail that is second to none.
Poor Stu. I'm sure he's produced a work of engineering art. Nice one Ian, shame they don't fit, but that saw is still a massive bargain.
Approx 5 mins in - love the way the lubricant milk is way off the saw blade. No wonder the steel is shomokin' 😅😅😅😅
I noticed that too.
An age performance issue perhaps 😂
Hi Nat, sorry the blades are to big, like you say might come in. All the best Ian
It was a nice gesture, Ian. Good on you!
You’re a cut above mate!!
Glad to hear Stu was finally able to get his ducts in a row!
It’s great to hear the challenges- good on Stu for persevering 👍
Thx again for a lovely video, love all the details, love that the occasional part comes from the guys doing the work and I’m still dying to see Churchill in his final color
I own a Rectal Irrigation clinic. Roundstone coffee is always the number one choice!!
Unlike some American shops that crank out finished cars in a week, yours are quite certainly built to be moving works of art, some of them pretty swiftly. Nat, Cal, your shop's success starts with the vision you two had, and the perseverance to find and make homes for some incredibly talented metal and finish workers. You have some outlandish people in that mix, who could likely work a lot of other places, but they hang out on your payroll because they get to do really great, hard things and get well paid for it working in your shop. Yet both of you are not afraid to take up the tools, any of them, if there was a need, or a self assigned task you wanted to do- there is a lot of respect between the lot of you, earned respect, gritty under the fingernails respect. Literally gold for people like you lot are. Greater challenges, greater accomplishments to you all!
Sunday night feet up ☕️in hand makes my night 🇬🇧👍🏻😉
Ditto
Enlightening as always ✌️
Nice work, it remains a pleasure to look at it.
So when is Nat going to finish that Rover??? Week in and week out I always see it covered or uncovered... Time for a employee car update...
Can't believe this page has got such low subscribers, everyone that watches the videos needs to hit the like and get the algorithms in the boys favour
Dominic the Donkey saw needs a refinish!
Question for Marc. 30+ years ago when I was on a YTS scheme and learning bodywork, our paint booth was side extraction, painting anything included wetting the floors, changing filters, wearing full body suit paper overalls (thankfully air fed masks no longer needed due to less poisonous paint!) and all the rest - I see a number of channels now that paint while wearing normal overalls and seemingly take less care over eliminating dust - is floor extraction or more modern filters that much better? I'm out of the industry now, but I can still see bad panel gaps or colour mismatches on panels a mile away.
Jag IRS looks lovely..
They were called Remus and had a few myself.....ad other puzzles. Lol ty for the memory.
Morning guys ,great videos, I've been watching every week since you guys started, love-em all. This week's edition Cal mentioned something about a can bus converter.... I've been looking for one for a while and not much luck. I need to convert a BMW ecu signal to the Landrover can bus modules.... I guess you can say it needs to convert from German to English 🤣🤣🤣. Would you mind passing on their details so I can contact them all the way from the land down under 🇦🇺.... Loving all the episodes please keep them coming....👍
BOOM 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Stu Foose...
After operating a powered for hacksaw for many days of early career in an engineering stores, found blades lasted ages and only ever got broke then edging material with the powered feed.... normal after being mildy tortured or shocked! 😂
Could you not cut them blades down and weld them on the side of the old blades not sure if that’s a good idea. But just a thought. Great work by the way especially the body and paint Jobs. Any idea on the colour of the mark two jag. Dark aqua blue would be nice maybe.
Came across an interesting Mk1 Escort this week. A 1300E in metallic purple. A 4 door in need of restoration sitting behind a block of flats in Southeast London. I remember when they were new and shiny. It seems a shame that this one is going to rust....
Those damper reservoir mounts are jewellery. Noice.
👍👍👍
The bronze bezels on the Escort gauges and associated fittings are seriously desirable 🤎🤎🤎
Could you please anodise the fixing screws for the heater controls on project one, thanks love the channel.
Yeah, those need to be black and the three knobs really ought to be bronze.
What welding helmet does Bobby have as it looks to have a more robust head band for the helmet to lift up on.
You really missed an opportunity to do the darts commentator 180! 😃
Hi is there a reason why you use satin instead of gloss on the underside of the carbon thanks
Is that a green z240 up in the corner of the upper level
Wow...how wide is that Allegra..?..
You've named the saw?
Another informative episode, thanks. Just a couple of quick questions, are you using a new camera ? and where's Sam, has he left ?
I do indeed have a new camera, a DJI Osmo Pocket 3. Jamie
I have a new front nearside chassis leg for a Ur if you can get yours straight.
Hi David, is that the leg with the complete inner wing attached? If so then yes I’d be very interested although they are available surprisingly cheaply new, Audi won’t ship them to the uk!
I know it is not relevant to this week but what is the make of 3D scanner you use - we are wanting to buy one for work and not sure what is good or not. Can you help?
Look through the early days 3d scanning episodes I think it was a peel 3d or so ? Utah rear „bumperettes“ used it though not sure if that was still with a rented service.
I work in the film industry on VFX and we use Faro LiDAR scanners, they also have a handheld scanner and in my experience their scanners are reliable and great to work with.
Bamboo labs I believe.
What is happening with Nat’s grass track project??
I may be the only one but I do think Carbon wings on the Allegros are dreadful, they seen too wide for the overall length of the vehicle.
But I may be wrong when they are finished.
It would appear to me that these cars are only original in their appearance because you use parts ect from all sorts of different other brands. Would I be right in thinking that the cost of the rebuild was greater than the original model built.
Obviously!
Still cant believe it was only £100..
It's not CE so most places don't want it in a modern workplace
I'm going to be a bitch here and I'm sorry but that rear sub frame that holds the diff looks like it's badly pitted. Despite zinc and powder coating is it wise to re use it?
I have to assume they know what they're doing, but I'm also curious about the thought process on that.
It's just the "cover" the strong bits are inside.
Surely Matt’s wasted on scraping underseal?…
Whilst I admire & respect your attention to detail on all your builds, I am surprised to see that jaguar rear axle carrier what looks to be just blasted & powder coated as it looks like all the heavy rust putting is still noticeable in the light.
I'd have addressed that pitting, treated it, primed it & used a good hard top coating.
Of course I could be wrong on what I see but it looks quite bad & I wouldn't be happy with that.
You do SECOND TO NONE work usually.
Cal seems bored with this work
Guys. !!
Tell me that's not a rainbow on your RUclips channel thumbnail..
You're not identifying as fuckin woke. ?
Tell me it isn't so. !!!
I can't speak for the my employer (nor do I claim to), but some of us at Retropower have been proudly 'woke' for years now. Simmer down and deal with it. Jamie
A channel that builds cars changes their logo to four distinctive colours of their previous builds.
The Millington Alfa,
The Greasham Imp
The supercharged Stratos
And MX5 Morris,
And you got scared of the gays coming after you, are you OK?
@richardirving4189 Sounds like you're pushing an agenda there.. Nothing to be ashamed of, admit you're gay. I can see you on a Sunday night, tucked up on the sofa with your blankie and a box of Kleenex getting very excited watching the boys working with their rough calloused hands..
Bet you drive a Calibra.
Nat will be wearing a pink wig from now on .. not sure wat pronoun will be used tho
