Hi lads . Just discovered your channel. You make it look easy, the sign of a good craftsman/craftsperson. Had a Mazda 323 with 43 k miles on. Failed Mot for rust. After having a wee chat with the tester i was invited to look under thee car. Never seen anything like this before. Drove it straight round to the scrappie. Cost of possible repair was waaaaay in excess of value of car. Mazdas for some reason don't last any time .Expensive lesson .?? Later🤐
thank you William :)
Love your technique! As Henry Ford used to say. "Take a big job, break it up to lots of little jobs"!
Yes as a good restorer should :)
You are a true metal artist. I am amazed with the talent you have keep the great contact coming !!!
Thank you for your continued support 👍
Sir…you’re a wizard with metals! Superb craftsman.
Great work again, I know it isn't easy but you make it look so easy. Look forward to seeing the new place develop, you have earned your success, very brave and hope it all goes from strength to strength. Joe
Thank you Joe :)
NICE WORK
thank you :)
Great work! The more I see what you guys do, to repair and recover rusted panels and structural corrosion, the more I like and enjoy, what you do and the right way to do it properly.
Thabk you Brian :)
What is the grey fluid you are brushing onto the backside of the panel before you weld it in?
The more I watch your videos the more I learn 👍👍👍
Thank you :)
Great work amazing how rusty the mx5 is
I'm just finishing up a 2002 Primera - repaired the rust, fresh steel, rustproofed every milimeter - or so I thought.. the boot area looked totally mint so I left it alone - I went to surface treat the drip-upstand..which looked immaculate till I pulled off the seal.. rust.. - I delved right TF into the boot area, took off everything, every cover, lights, inserts, blah blah - the "Mint" boot area was sound, but there were small outbreaks hiding in every dark corner.. Rust never sleeps and you've seldom "got it all" even when you think you have. I think I've got it all now, but I bet there's stuff hiding.. there always is. :-)
BTW- see the likes of that MX, If it's a common vehicle I'm repairing and a common fail area, I make a template off the repair section when it's the perfect fit & file it away for the future - next time I have one to do, I grab the template, cut that shape out of steel & bang - no mucking about re-inventing a repair shape. At this stage now I have templates for all sorts & man do they save a lot of time mucking about.
We do make templates but I find it easier to just use my eyeometer 😁
@@yorkshirecarrestoration No - I mean for "repeat repairs" - example being I do a lot of mid 2000's Pajeros so I keep templates of the common fail areas, same as for merc sprinters, blah blah - that way you don't need the eyeometer. :-)
........Perfect !thank,s watching !
👍
As always Steve just Magic tin bashing and welding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thabk you Eddie :) and for your continued support :)
You two make it look for easy
Thank you :) 👍
It's amazing how much these mazdas rust! Tidy job though.
Thank you Steve :)
As an Mx-5 owner I've always been aware that these rust well, but never expected to see the Mk3's in such poor condition, I wouldn't consider 57 plate as being that old or bad but thanks for being the 'boys that can'....other than that they are great little cars, and guess the owners happy to pay to have them live a bit longer!...keep up the good work!
I have an 09 plate NC and watching these videos has become a form of slow torture as I sit here imagining what's happening to my car!
@@colinritchie1757 Yes...kinda scary isn't it, as the car they are fixing really doesn't look that bad on the outside!
@@colinritchie1757 get wax oiling because I had an 05 and it went in exactly the same places and that was three years ago, so about the same age as yours today. Wished I'd have known to do it earlier.
Yes we always advise Waxoiling it saves a lot of cars, but dose need topping up on a yearly basis :)
5 years ago I wanted to buy an MX 5 NC, but in the end it became a Porsche Boxster with more than 200 km (I'm from the Netherlands). It's not cheap to have a Boxster if you need parts, but there is no rust, even after 22 years. So that saves a lot of money on the other end.
I have a Honda Jazz that is nearly 8 yrs old and it doesn't have a mark on it anywhere, I was considering trading it in for an MX5 as I have always fancied one but I think after watching your videos that I will stick with my little Honda.
We get all the rusty mx5's so they aren't as bad as they seem, there are ml ons of good ones :)
you boys are the dogs bollocks keep on lads
As always fantastic job Steve work of art keep up the great work 👍👍
Thank you Lee :) 👍
Excellent work às always guy's love the channel and what you do ♥️👍👍👍
Thank you Dean :)
Looking freezing cold, Nice job inte rustbucket👍👍👍
It was rather chilly :)
Nice work. Rust is always 10x worse than it looks on initial inspection.
Great job and good welding just what needed for my Lancia 2000HF coupe. I will be in touch with contact details so we can talk. Many Thanks Bob
Thank you Bob, :)
love watching these videos! What thickness of sheet metal do you use for these types of body repairs??
Hi. Amazing work. What thickness of sheet is for those repairs?
Still impressed again and again 👍Thank you and take care. 🥵😂
Thank you Emmanuel :)
hi great job what gauge do you use for your repairs you make it look so easy.keep it up.
Did you use to work at a Mazda dealership? it's just you look very familiar as if I remember you from courses or new model training hahah. Great to see hand crafted panels ect in your videos, nice work.... All the best Joseph.
I have worked at mazda dealerships in the past :)
Been watching you guys for a few months and I'm really impressed with your outfit and quality of work...... If you get bored of the mx5 there's always my bongos rear arches that need doing 🤣. I may brave them myself. Have you ever done one?. Great channel guys
Thank you Darren. Yes Iv done a few bongos before as they do tend to rust a little :)
Hi Steve can you recommend anything as a temporary until I can fully restore the car, what’s the best wheels or sanding to take back the rusted areas and what also to spray or paint on afterwards just to stop it getting worse, thanks .
Hi, In my opinion your best off taking any surface rust off then a neautaliser like hammerite kurust and after that dries use a 2k primer :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration thanks Steve 👍
Hi Steve, fabulous skills make such a good watch. Have to ask another question, I am starting a project involving a brand new shell (find of the century for me anyway!) and am still trying to determine the best way of finishing the underside etc. Resisting the temptation of shutzing as it's a pretty one way journey and doesn't always last what would you suggest? I see you use gravitex, one idea is to better the factory seam sealing and use gravitex which can be over painted, typically i would use high solids 2 pack, sound about right, what do you think?
Hi Patrick. If you have a new shell I'd deffo use something like upol gladiator as the protection is second to none. :)
Some great work there, could watch rust being cut out for hours! Sorry if this has been asked before, but what brush able grey/ Zinc primer are you using? Cheers
Hi Dean. It's just a generic 2k a proxy primer :)
Keep up the good work - can we have more commentary please? I see what you're doing but I don't always know how or why.
Yes we are trying Neil :) these videos take a lot of our spare time as we both have full time Jobs as well but we do intend to explain more about what we are doing and why :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration wow I thought that was your job. In that case a double well done and even more impressive
@@cluelessmgmidgetrestoratio6990 it is but most of what we film is after we have finished working on customers cars :) as the videos take a lot of time to film and edit :)
Good job there Steve, ur gettin better at it now lol lol Haa haaa
Thank you Simon. Iv had a bit of practice now :)
I've got arc-eye now. Thanks a lot YCR. I could tell it was cold in there.... brrrrrr.
It was cold :) we weld so.m ch to keep warm :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration Keep up the fine work chaps.
When welding in patches like these, is there ever a situation in which you would choose a butt weld over a lap weld?
Lovely video as always, keep them coming!
Hi yes we do butt weld but only on our restorations, these are mot repairs to keep the car on the road for a good long while yet :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration Cool, thanks! :)
What’s the primer you use mate? Is it just 2K mixed for a HVLP but put on with a brush
Hi Jason. Yes it's 2k. Can be applied by spray gun or brushed on :)
Hi have you worked on a mg midget if so any videos. Great videos BTW
Yes Iv done a few mg's including two midgets over the years but a few years ago now and we didn't used to film then :)
Is there any actual metal left on that? 😜
Sterling effort lads 👍
Thank you Basil. :)
whats the grey brush paint, galvafroid ?
At 9.00 I think that's a tool we've not seen before. Hole punch?
Hi Thomas, yes it's a hole punch, very cheap off ebay for about £15 :)
Does the delete of the holes that were there from factory nothing for the car? Why are they there?
We have never has an issue with not reinstating those holes but we always advise drilling some need holes on the bottom of the new sill. After drilling protect them :)
Looking around your workshop, it seems you have a lifetime of work welding up these rusty old pigs 😂😂😂😂
That's not even half the cars we have in atm :)
Can you tell me what grey primer you use in the video?
The primer 2k epoxy. :)
Buzzweld?
Is it reasonable to buy a second hand Miata? If from YCR, yes!
Hi Leo. Yes there are a lot of good solid Miata / MX5's out there but seen as we do rust repaires almost all of the cars that come to us are rusty so it looks like they are all rusty, but they're are way more good cars than rusty cars :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration Thank you for the information. But i think i cannot buy such a small car, being 6'5"even if i owned an old Fiat 500. hehehe
is this car particulary rusty , or is this a design flaw in the mazda NC ?
Hi Karen. It is a design problem and doubled by mazda not protecting them properly, combine this with owners not looking after the underneath makes for a rusty car. There are a lot more good ones out there as these cars were sold in the millions and we get all the rusty ones as nobody else wants to repair them haha
This car is so warped by all the weld shinkage ;)
It would be if I put to much heat through it :)
Them cars certainly do rust ,😲😲😲
They do if not looked after :)
Sill end panels always rust on Mk3's. Most people don't know to look here.
Yep :)
Great effort but I do prefer the videos where you talk and discuss what you're doing and why.
We are trying to find the time to talk as well but we are a little limited on time to make vids. :)
noys 😉
Thank you :)
👍👊
👍
If I had a dollar for every time I went to do one thing and found rust in the way I could buy a Ferrari
Haha I want to restor a ferrari :)
Love watching the video`s but can you PLEASE stop that stupid arm wave at the start.
Thank you :)
inside? you do nothing? rust
If you read the captions and watch me point you will see that it says "after the repair we Waxoil inside via these access holes"
I'm starting to think you CAN believe it and the titles are hype, purely to get views
It helps us get views and hopefully people enjoy the content :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration 👍❤🚗
The pumping music ruins the video I'm afraid.
Why bother.scrap it ffs
The car will last many years if the welding is done and the underside protection is repaired where required, it should not be scrapped
Thank you for your positive input.
What product do you paint behind the panel on that you brushed on ?
Hi John. 2k brush on primer.
