    Nice work, i cut my teeth on the MK 1 escorts as a kid never thought they would become so sort after . I remember having too paint a particular colour that had micro-blisters from being stored in primer outside when FORD went on strike backin the 70s .

  • @MJPilote

    Not a small feat fixing it like that, should be awesome again. But for my old mentor, that would have been his specialty repair, he would have cut it from the gas cap down after pulling the rear panel out. Specially if there is no original quarter available, it was like magic what the old man did.
    Front wing cut in the middle and just changed the front half, you never knew it was done like that when he was finished.
    I owe him plenty for what he showed and teached and have not seen a better body guy after his passing.

  • @duggy788

    seems a shame to cut off those original rust free panels they looked like they could have been easily repaired but i suppose what the customer wants he gets.

      @marcushayesford 2 года назад +1

      @@andyplage6590 It defo COULD have been repaired but it would have taken ALOT of work as one of the creases was very sharp! Also I want to be able to look inside the boot and see a perfectly straight rear quarter (I dont have the original tank fitted) AND ultimately the rear quarter would have needed plenty of filler and I dont see why I should have that when the accident wasn't my fault. Also now the quarter panel is out of the way all the inside bits will be painted (where Ford didn't bother) 👍

      @@marcushayesford I can see your point I'm sure experts would be able to reshape to perfection without using filler the rear qauter even if it mean cutting off rear panel to gain access to that nasty Crease

      @LOTPOR0402 2 года назад +3

      Yes probably more filler going into the joins than the repairing the original panels ,especially the C piller and the sill is always awkward to weld neatly and you do not disturb the flanges .Panel bond works well with a spot welder where you can get one in .Stops the rust and is way stronger

    I love seeing these old cars being restored/repaired Gavin, it's great to see the level of detail you put into your repairs as well you are all true experts at your job. I didn't know you could still get new panels for the MK1 Escorts mate that's amazing. Do you ever restore any MK3 Cortina's mate? I had quite a few of them back in the 80's and they are still my favourite car 👍
    I follow a person on here called PeteC Cortina City I have chatted to him quite a lot and followed him restoring his MK3 Cortina's, he does a great job on his cars and he names each one he does, not sure if you know him Gavin. Look forward to your next upload 👌👍

    Lovely work, well done. Wondering why cut off the entire panels when with your skill set id have thought a perfect and near filler free minor replacement would have been possible. I’ve never done it so genuine curious question, I’m sure there’s a reason.

    • @Gavinpinkpaintshop
      @Gavinpinkpaintshop  2 года назад

      To be perfectly honest I think by the time we replaced just a section of the panel and repaired it it's just as quick to fit the whole quarter panel this is obviously just the way I like to do it everyone's a little different
