great work guys, seeing the old repair straight over the rust and you grinding it out and patching it properly is a joy to watch, i'm working just as hard on giving it a garage it deserves........just wish the weather would change
@colinfurze Don't sugarcoat things- the lads fixing your Beemer are cursing behind the scenes!
A parking space next to your Delorian in your underground garage 😁 eppic 😁👍
It seems like today is the first dry day in ages. Maybe not weeks but it feels like it.
Global climate boiling change is as much of a lie as we mere mortals can put up with.
Those previous dodgy patches over rust... Now I'm not defending them completely they are obviously bodge jobs, rust traps, and had to go to long term preserve the car, but they must have meant the car got through another MOT and stayed out of the scrapyard for at least one more year when it otherwise wouldn't have and so without them there would be perhaps nothing to restore properly today!
Just food for thought when we're all swearing at the previous guys bodge jobs while restoring these things.
That mans fabricating skills are an utter joy to watch.
100%!
@@richardharrold9736 Your qualifications?
Amazing!
Go watch Bad Obsession Motorsports Project Binky. We'll wait a few days while you catch up. They make this guy look like he's in preschool.
@@cycoholic il agree that its no where at BOM's level, but the work is still solid, while we are used to see a lot of youtbers just fully stripp the cars and sandblast then before starting preparing what he is doing it not bad or wrong, its just a different aprotch
That métal work is like sculpting. It's art. You have gold in you hands guys.
Thank you :) 👍
This just goes to show that car restoration is an art as much as it is a science
This is just insane. I cannot believe there are people who will brave the noise, the cold (I could see your breath there), the dirt, the smells and then have the patience to fabricate all those intricate parts. It is simply insane. And, by the way, congrats for reaching 100K !!!
It is rather nippy :)
Likewise!
The smells!! That's half the fun 😂
Have you any idea how inadequate you make me feel?
One comment; dust masks.
I worked at Barnsley Hospital in the mid 1990s and watched an autopsy of an ex-miner who died aged 70. He looked like he was in quite good shape and all his internal organs were fine, except his lungs, which were clogged with coal dust. So much so that the pathologist dipped a finger into the soup and was able to paint black lines with it.
She said, "Apart from being dead, this man was in pretty good health."
I would imagine inhaling lots of rust over a lifetime could have a similar effect.
And I'm sure hearing aid ermm.. I mean hearing protection wouldn't hurt unless they've already lost all the hearing. Or like tinnitus.
Good thing they aren’t mining for coal
@@psilver063I'm sure the tons of rust and metal they're inhaling when grinding is just great for their lungs.
Nice repairs, using that air chisel and grinder without ear defenders and using a mig welder without a full welding helmet is crazy, how do you not get arc eye. My dad is 62 years old now with hearing aids from industrial deafness. He wishes someone gave him a hard time about not wearing ear defenders.
Honestly its silly and really does annoy me to see that sorta behaviour. Regardless of "time saved" it's just showing terrible terrible working practises. :( Grinders without any face protection is insane to me.
Respirator or at least a dust mask. 🫁
@@richardharrold9736lets see your welding and repair skills. They have been in business for more than 20 years, so I would think the know a thing or two about their craft.
Cant help but agree mate, I've had tinitus for 6 years now, horrible horrible
thing. COPD etc from the fags and 40 years of building dust fibre glass etc.
Kinda realise how stupid it all is when its too late.
@@PatricioGarcia1973It doesn't matter how good you are safety squints won't save you from arc eye.
That car will get some serious weight with you!! 😂😂 I hope you're still taking all the rust and putting it in the box as you showed in the first vids, it'll be very funny to see how much it is in the end 😅
Be careful , them wire wheels are lethal when they start moulting through use ,definitely wear full goggles 👎
It doesn’t look too bad, closely followed by parts literally dissolving in the hand 😆
Great to watch cars being saved like this 👍🏻
I don't understand how this could possibly be worth fixing with the amount of rust that needs to be fixed.
Just a small amount of rust then so far, she’s in a bit of a state but I know Colin will give you all the time you need to get it done properly, that’s what I like about Colin, he appreciates all this work because of what he does and he’ll make sure you’re looked after, great work so far and I’m so glad Alex and Colin led me to your channel guys, great content 👌
That man is blacksmithing himself a BMW.
Haha thank you :)
I have a couple questions. 1. Why not get the undercarriage sandblasted before doing the rust repair and 2. Why don't shops in England ever have heat?
I had the same question about sandblasting
Great work! You should consider wearing a mask..
Arrgghh no safety glasses or welding mask. Great work though
Amazing job. There's alot of rust. I love E30's So happy it's getting restored.
If I was Colin. I would definitely remove the wipers for the headlight/highbeam.
They are not just ugly, but basically pointless.
Finallyyyyy some wire wheel action.
All the bitching and moaning and repeatedly stating the obvious ("it's bad") for what feels like the last 3 videos has been tiresome 🙄
you shud look in to getting a dry ice blaster to save you from using the grinder with the wirebrush all the time.
I got OCD and all im looking at is that small circle they drew and never cut out then proceeded to paint over it
Thick glasses does not safety glasses make!!
and it looked so innocent when it first came
I can't imaging the number of hours this repair will take. What patience and skill! Kudo 's to you and your team.
I'd love to see the bill for all this work. My guess is you would be able to buy a pair of well sorted E30s for that tab. Granted, it makes great instructional content. And it's for the Furze. But FFS.
Remember kids: safety equipment is for Marys! 😜
Engage safety squints gentlemen! Honestly wouldn't know where to start with something like this, or where all the parts go back after. Keep half expecting "and here's one I made earlier", "except it's a different colour" moment.
What file belt brand are you using at 22:03?
u guys sure do work a lot. but what i wonder is, why isnt this car being dunked in a chemical bath . so much rust and so many layers of metal . keep up the good work :)
A patch repair, on top of a patch repair, on what looks like a critical bit of box section 🤔 I'm just not sure why you're bothering to restore such a chassis, as it'll probably need aligning after all those years sat under its own weight.
Great Work, But can I ask is there any reason why you have left the Headlights, Grilles and Lower Apron on the Vehicle ?
Also Great Craftmanship and Skill. Love It, Keep em coming. Cheers from George in Adelaide, Australia
Big question is where to begin. Looks like a never ending task. Great job. 😊
Beautiful work and skills. So extremely interesting.
Keep safe.
Thank you :)
Wow, what a rust bucket. Living here in the Great White North 🇨🇦, I gotta say, I’ve scraped vehicles in better shape than that Beemer.
I can't watch/sub anymore due to your willful disregard of basic welding safety.
No probs thanks for your support 👍
Nice work as usual 👌 its shocking how rotten these beemers are ! You would think they were built by Alfasud 😅
Very nice sheet metal work. You're going to have a shit-ton of hours into this car by the time you're done. Thanks for the video.
Missing something?, hole for clips for inter plastisk in front fender?
A drill quickly sorts that.
It’s not getting shoved into the nearby cut then 😂. Good to see it coming together. Bit more ripe than expected from a late E30 but will be nice to see the end results.
why u don't have sandblasting its much easier to remove rust and another crap ?
I was having serious heebie jeebies there watching you with the Wire Wheel Of Death and only your safety squints on.
I wear glasses :)
Haha the wire wheel of death , I laughed at that one , I’ve went through thousands of all the different wire wheels in my lifetime and I hate every single one (especially the crimped wire cups). Would find the wires in washed clothes in my socks bloody everywhere.
Honest question here.... Why not strip the car down to the bare chassis and do a sandblast or something of that kind given the amount of corrosion all over the vehicle?
Because it's about twice as much work and then twice as mch to reassemble then lots will break so more work to repair every nut bolt a screw that will break etc the list goes on.
you need some heat in that workshop.. looks like It is really cold...
Workshops like this can't be heated without serious money but thank you for the though :)
Yeah, this car isn't going to be done until August next year with the amount of rust on it.
I think you forgot to make a hole in the first panel on the right side.. i saw you sprayed over the mark where the hole was supposed to be 😅 anyways good job as always 👍
It's easy to drill it when it's on the car :)
I used to be a fabricator /welder and know how mutch time it takes to get it just right ,really nice work it kinda takes me back to my workshop days it seemed like a jigsaw puzzle that you are makeing the peices for im following this resto and great work 👍
Get colin to build you a laser cleaner,,it will save you hours of time and better finish
We would love a lazer cleaner but they are 10k for a good one :)
I definitely wouldn't call this repairable! 😂😂😂
You make it look oh so easy Steve. She's pretty crusty underneath. Looked a good car until you stripped it down and got it on the rotisserie. No doubt she will be on a steady diet of weight gaining welding for a while. As always, warm regards from Ireland.
This is a prequel to that video about watching paint dry! Except this isn't boring
Excellent work guys keep it up, what's the expected restoration cost going to be ? with the amount of corrosion that you're finding brings me back to my classic mini oversills and lots of tin worm.Took me 6 years a lot of money and expletives 🤬😡
It's going to be more of a YMW than a BMW when it's finished. Loving this series, amazing what's being done to bring the car back to life
Do you keep track of the hours you put into your projects? I don't really care about how much it will cost in the end (more interesting in that area would be how much you thought it will cost and the final bill), but I am really interested into hot lonw this takes. This video for example: I have no clue. A good morning? A whole day? Two days? A whole week? Nope, no idea.
this video at least a whole day. if you seen project Binky, some of their brakets took like 3-4 hours to make
Krásná a pečlivá práce.Gratuluji
i'd love to see how much you lot spend on Abrasive's & consumables
A lot 😂
What a mess! Did he park that in seawater for a year??
This is like a class on Black Smiting and welding. Wish there were people this good in the states. Spending thousands on my Camaro only to have the body shop weld over the rust and call it done with out telling me is what turned my poor car in to scrap after a few years. Nice to see it done well and right.
First of all, great job again.
What always amazes me, is that you completely grind away all the weld seams.
Will there be enough strength left?
Yes lots as long as there is proper penitration :)
That’s what she said…
@@necroscoped 😁
@@richardharrold9736 you leave a lot of comments about their workmanship and poor welds, would be very kind if you could share your knowledge about the correct way plz
@@richardharrold9736 so what is the best way to achieve this, what's he doing wrong. genuinely interested .
I did a lot of needle gunning in the Navy what a messy and loud tool to use but they are very effective at getting rust off.
Yes goto tool for removing crud :)
Is that orange BMW E9 the one from @TheLateBrakeShow in the background?
I am confused, why wouldn’t you strip the whole car, bead blast everything and start a fresh?
I absolutely LOVE watching a genuine master practicing his craft. Your metalworking is addictive to witness. Thank you for sharing!
Did i spot the barn find BMW 2800csi from the Late Brake Show behind Colins E30?
It would be interesting to know how long you actually spend on one of these repairs it looks like a very long time so your dedication is so impressive
Colin gives you a rusty boat anchor, huge boxes of rust coming his way after this transformation. So sketchy, one loud fart and the thing would fall apart
And that folks is why quality rust repairs are so expensive. It needs skill and lot of time. Using one grinder would send me mental having to constantly change the wheels. I have 3 grinders hanging above my bench, one with a cutting disk, another with a flap disk and the third with a grinding disk. It saves so much time and frustration it’s definitely worth the cost.
Absolutely amazing work!
I see you use the classic CAD*, just like SOUP Classic Motoring, for shaping the replacement steel for where the rust was removed!
* _Cardboard Aided Design._
Proper job!. Nice one!. Reckon it was only the paint holding that car together!. 🤣
Q why did you not strip the chassis and acid dip it?
Agree, makes no sense .
The needle gun brings back fond memories of standing inside Darrell Lea chocolate tanks grinding and chipping rust. 😂
Wow. WOw. WOW!!! I used to think the worst country for rust must be Canada where I live but I've been watching the stuff in the UK and WINNER!! This car is INSANELY bad! I would have said NOPE. It's just too far gone!
Great work lad but time consuming. Do ye ever get the sandblasted or dipped before ye start fabrication work.
Is it better to do rust repairs before sandblasting? Could sandblasting it hide weakened spots or something?
Hmm, maybe only slightly less rust than the disaster Datsun. Noticed a nice E9 in the background
Well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 what discs are you using to grind off the weld?? Cheers
You guys HAVE to replace that puny horn with a massive ship's horn and not tell Colin. DO IT!!!! (May want to put crap proof seat covers on too.)
Serious question : is that chassis worth saving?
Yes :)
Why are u spending so much time grinding and cleaning manually, indstead of having it send off for blasting or chemical dip?
I love watching these videos. its always interesting seeing how people approach and fix things.
Guys, it isn't the 1950s anymore. Wear a dust filter mask while you're grinding as all that crap is going straight into your lungs.
OMG. What is it with these BMW cars . All the rust and rot.
Work your magic guys.
A joy to watch as many others have said. Great work and congratulations on 100k, well deserved!
this explains why proper repairs cost a lot of money, and an "MOT Patch" costs £50.
Ya got your hands full boys. You sure make it look like you an handle it. Merry Christmas from Florida
I don't know if I would ever want a BMW if they rust and decay this bad. Didn't Colin have this in a garage for several years?
you: The good news is that the car looks repairable
me: which magic wand will you be using, then?
seriously, amazing work gents.
What a load of scrap ferric oxide - and the disassembly took weeks - compare how a Tesla Model Y is built from scratch in less than 10 hours... LOL
We’ve got 100 yr old shipwrecks with less rust😂
Steve you are the best in the business I'm happy Ryan is working with you now
making damaged pieces from scratch, hats off to you sir, true master at work
Why is everyone quipping about the rust? The rust isn't the problem. The problem is the lack of solid metal (due to it turning into rust)...
I'm just amazed at what they can do! To me as a complete novice this looks like a lost cause!
As a company, how many angle grinder wire wheels and cutting blades do you go thru in a typical month? I'm guessing a metric butt-ton!
I'm surprised you guys don't have a sandblasting booth. You know, the fellas at BlastOne could fabricate one for your garage. If you give them a shout tell them Alex F. referred you. It'd be a good addition to your shop 👍
Shop sounds trump mediocre music 8 days a week. (Yes, I realize this is an old man comment.)
How much would this cost? I have an e34 in very much the same condition and looking for a full restore.
It is crazy to think that all of the videos before now were just preparation for this...
Hi guys, great work. I just wanted to ask, does doing all the metal work in the cold affect the welds etc in the warmer months?, given that cold metal shrinks and hot metal would expand.
Thanks in advance for taking time to answer my question :)
i'm not sure whether BMW chassis were treated when manufactured, i have a 25 year old Audi S3 which i am stripping and cleaning up for respray (changing from black to light blue), and i have to say i am amazed at how good it is condition wise, barely any rust, even the undersides of the doors are not that bad, only the drivers door needs a little welding attention, you'd think as normal the passenger side (in the UK) would suffer worst
the only thing that concerned me the most, was when i finally get the new paint job, all the trim and everything will look a little on the tatty side, all the plastics looking their age, faded a dirty dusty grey and i hate to use silicon products as they don't last
but i have found soaking everything in soapy water, a good clean up with gun wash, and then found an amazing product that brings back all that black trim back to looking almost new, can't say what it is as i am still developing it
Are you going to investigate underneath the rubber firewall matt?
I am glad I came across this channel. I've found some rust around windscreen in my 99 Civic which after cutting out the windscreen looks pretty bad, so will require some fabrication. I am not panel beater or body shop technician so anything what you're doing giving me rough idea how I need to repair my car. I would like to see episode where you can recommend some products for finishing job after welding like epoxy primers, panel bonds and adhesives. I really struggle to find products which don't break the bank and are still good for amature repairs.
