    I absolutely love the fact that you know what you’re talking about when doing the car. But it is also very nice to hear ‘ I have No Idea’ too. Watching your channel has been very very enjoyable and I hope that other people find your channel too. Looking forward to seeing more of your content and Stress Factors 😜😜😜

    What a nice car,
    You really do them well,
    I’m 65 and used to do crash damaged cars in my time.
    The Porsche is awesome,
    How lucky you are being paid to do you tube without relying upon selling them to make a living.
    I like your content and mat Armstrong too.
    Shame you’re not in his 2 million plus,
    But keep going my friend.

    What an incredible two hour watch. Your tenacity and patience in sorting out the problems that crop up when working on cars is great to see and amazes me as a person that can`t even put a screw in straight! Is there anything that you can`t do on cars? Your knowledge seems limitless.

    Well done Dean - the work you've put into getting this wonderful looking car back into A1 condition is to be applauded. I forgot about all the effort and time that went into this, nice to see the videos combined. Well done, brilliant job, I wish I had some of your talent and knowledge. Big round of applause. ✌

    Spot welding is otherwise called resistance welding. You repaired it using MIG/MAG welding plus riveting aluminium parts. MIG/MAG welding is stronger than resistance spot welding. Therefore the structural strength of the welded spots has increased which may have an adverse effect in an accident. Body shell parts and joints are designed to absorb the impact force rather then crack or break. Thanks
