    This video and the work on this vehicle show that there are still very high standards in the motor trade. No short cuts, incredibly accurate work, and all done to exacting standards. I no longer drive due to my health issues, but if I did, I would have no worries or concerns whatsoever buying a vehicle from these two gentlemen knowing the work to have been maticulously carried out. If RUclips offered awards for the best motor channel for car repairs, this would be top of the list.
    Cheers, Bob

    My years doing jig work on the blackhawk and car-o-liner jig systems this new jig idea is amazing.
    Same principle as the old systems the amount of knowledge needed for even attempting to do what Chris is doing is far above the average bodyshop man.
    Takes a special few people to actually take jobs like this on.
    A lot to do with it is measuring up the marker points and being confident that it's correct.
    So when people who can do body repair work to that level a simple dent in a rear quarter doesn't real come close to the capability of the bloke.
    Hats off to Chris it's not easy work it's more of a art than actual work.
    But the hours involved in doing this job is madness hence why the vehicle is written off.
    Keep up the teaching people what is really behind the scenes in the motor trade 👏 👌 👍
