Love the close up detail camera work on this one Steve! "Keep up the good work Sir" Looking forward, as usual for the next instalment!!
thank you Chaz, ill try include more similar shots :)
If a car is so rusty it needs a lot of effort and patience, skill is a prerequisite. Keep up the good work.
Thank you :)
It certainly puts you off buying a classic car
@@lesbaty8919 it shouldn't as they are not all rusty :) we only get rusty cars as that's what we do or it wouldn't be with us Les :) 👍
Das ist Pfusch und keine Restaurierung
And a very sharp cutting wheel
it is a total pleasure watching you work , your skill is outstanding, thankyou .
Thank you very much! :)
fantastic workmanship - its a joy to watch you - cannot wait for the next one -it will be superb i am sure when it is all finished
Glad you enjoyed it :)
You all are the best I mean you really know what to do and how to do it properly and a lot of people lack in that department but you know how it's constructed and you know exactly how and the right way to fix it..I love your channel and I love you all too you guys are the best I ever seen before I wish I knew the ins and outs of everything like you guys I love to work with metal and I'm fixing to start the work on my jaguar but I'm definitely going to watch you guys a lot longer before I get to indepth with it because it has a lot of really bad structural rust . Thanks for the upload buddy 👍.
Thank you David that is much appreciated :) when you do get on with your jag just go slow and if you get stuck stop, enjoy what you have done and leave it alone and have a think for a while, dosnt matter if it hours days or weeks just don't rush it :)
Great to watch you unpick a rusting classic. Makes me want to start a project of my own. Keep up the good work and the videos 😃
thank you Paul we will :)
We look You from Czech republic..nice job !
Thank you and Hi Marek :)
I did one the easy way….. I picked a 53 willys jeep….. single skin…. An a chassis….. bit like Meccano…….. you have my admiration on this project….. I do love the Porsche targa your doin a crackin job 😎💪🏼
Thank you Colin :)
It takes some serious balls to get that far into the weeds with this thing.... great work!!👍
Iv done a few before so only a few supprises on this one :)
Horrifying and relaxing to watch at the same time 👍
horrifying and relaxing doing it as well :)
Mesmerising, attention to detail outstanding. Really in awe of your skill.
Thank you very much John :)
Evening Steve. I know it was in time lapse but I can really see how much effort you’ve put into that front end 👍🏻 Top guy 😊
thank you Steve, it is a lot of work :)
That looks really good with the new front end,I can't believe how rotten that Porsche was really crusty,you healing it's wounds 👍😂
We are Richard :)
Brilliant video - an absolute education! Also love the E24 content, the other car I'd love to restore
Thank you Simon :)
Totally mesmerising.
Thank you David :)
wow, what a ballache! like your method for spotwelds! certainly beats sitting there with a drill for hours on end!
Yes indeed! :)
Fantastic work. Must be so satisfying getting rid of all that rust. 👍
It really is!
Keep the humor in ;-) Love these vids.
Love your work and the willingness to share how you go about the processes of rust repair and repair panel fabrication. I notice that in all of your posts, you utilise predominantly, the disc grinder, to remove the affected area. Just curious; do you ever use a plasma cutter in your work, as it seems to becoming a prolific industry tool nowadays? Oh and I marvel at how you and the Team, remember where all the wiring hooks up. Electrics are my nemesis!
Hi Brian.
We used to have a plasma cutter but it broke, we are currently saving for a new one :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration Thanks Steve; I enjoy the old school way, as that would be the only way I could afford it, Enjoy and stay safe and well.
Outstanding work and precision!
class one work great to watch a man who knows what he is doing and where he his going
Thank you Chris :)
Hiya Steve outstanding workmanship as always love the channel and what you guys do keep up the amazing work ♥️👍
Thank you Dean , we really do appreciate the support :)
Great job much more rusty than I expected , Porsche 911’s have great parts and body panels availability, dam shame the Datsun hasn’t got the same !
even if the Datsun had the panels we probably wouldn't buy them and we enjoy fabricating, the Porsche is a customers and supplied the panels :)
❤ was waiting for some work on the Porsche.
thank you :)
Fantastic job preserving non rusted panels and spot welds. Well Done!!
Thank you John :)
Thanks for another great video, so nice to see you not getting down at having to hack off even more metal.
Would love to see you tackle a classic Alfa 105 series and give it the YCR treatment.
Yes we are too :) i have worked on one before but we would love to film one :)
All you needed was some bondo! Lol! You have and make the best restoration videos! Thank you for the lessons you are teaching.
thank you Neal we do appreciate that :)
Great stuff Steve, that front end looked like it at been at the bottom of an ocean for a good few years....Guess the bill for grinding and cutting discs must be a few hundred by now!...😁😁...Love watching you work, and thanks for sharing this with us! 👍👍
Thank you and yes we do go through quite a few :)
Crazy amount of rust and it looked so good before you started, had me fooled. Great work
You and me both :)
Great video, great skill and really enjoyed the video. Best bit of all was that I learned something from you that will save me a load of time and ball ache 👍 Thanks for sharing
Thank you Nick and great you learned something, that is the whole point of our channel :)
What with this Porsche and that Datsun you guys certainly love a challenge. Personally I think that your in competition with each other to who can find the most rust.
It's defo Ryan and the desaster datsun :)
You are a professional
thank you Hussein :)
Another great video amazing skills i love watching them.
Thank you! Carol :)
Love the way you don't use a spotweld drill
I try to preserve the parent metal as much as I can as this is what I'm going to be welding to, it's slower but for me this leaves a better surface to weld to.
It’s mad to think because of the crazy prices these 911’s fetch these days mean even this rusty old thing is worth all this time and effort.
They do demand good money :)
Love watching these vids keep them coming please. Joe
Thank you Joe :)
Glad I found this channel, subscribed
Thank you Khan
Amazing as usual
thank you very much :)
It's great to watch someone who with the experience to do it properly, absolutely master, hats off to you, great job 👍
thank you Tony i do have a lot of pride in my work :)
Excellent work
Thank you Oliver :)
What a HUGE job! Well done. Lots more to go!
Yes lots more :)
I love the channel and admire the work you do but still can’t believe your welding/ grinding with that screen in/ uncovered!
Hi Joe , thank you, as iv said previously the screen is now covered and undamaged , these were filmed before we covered it as work wise we are weeks ahead of what the videos are :)
Nice Steve! 😊
Thank you Mark :)
As always.... Banging nuff said
Thank you Steven :)
Lots of patience there. Experience shows!
Thank you David :)
must have had the same rust protection as my A60 !!!, real quality work there, a driver cars when they are all up together, its all preparation , , the standard of work is amazing
what worries me is when these cars become MOT exempt, how many muffins will smoke around in rust buckets and lose the front end, when it collapses
Excellent job as ever huys - I'm guessing having accurate replacement panels makes thins a Little easier? - but the attention to detail is as ever amazing to watch
It dose make things easier and thank you for the encouragement its appreciated :)
Looking good. Really enjoying this one. The fuel tank support and front suspension pan are nearly always rusted out as they rust from inside unfortunately 😢
The do rust a little :)
Unbelievable , great to watch someone who knows what they’re doing 👍👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it David :)
Great work as always there Steve 👍👍
thank you lee :)
Saved from the scrap heap.
It will be :)
Nice! I was wondering, do you use just 0.8 wire on everything or 0.6 on some bodywork? That 911 reminds me of the countless VW Beetles that I put panels in years ago as I was learning my way! Always nice to see welding restorations on stuff, even if I'll never own that car.
Nice work as usual from you guys😎👍
Thank you for the support :)
Great watching the job done properly. Must be many badly repaired Porsche out there.
There are. Most I come across need extensive repair :)
Do you do media blasting in the UK? Looks like that car would have been a good candidate. Enjoying your work!
Yes we do but most of our customers prefer not to as it can make the job a whole lot bigger and therefore a great deal pricier :) I guess it's all down to money :)
YCR, declared of public utility for all rescues carried out and to come.
haha thank you Leo :D
Lots of grinding and little talking. I like it. Subscribed.
thank you Andre :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration I judged you too lightly before. Apologies.
@@andremarais2706 no problem Andre we appreciate your support :)
I take it it's having new glass with not bothering to cover it whilst grinding
thank you, if you read the comments, iv said previously the screen is now covered and undamaged , these were filmed before we covered it as work wise we are weeks ahead of what the videos are. than you for your comments :)
I was thinking the same + I didn’t see any cover over the dash in the last video🤷🏻♂️
@@steveclark3457 thank you for your input.
Was also wondering given the amount of rot in the nsf inner wing why the whole panel wasn’t replaced.
@@steveclark3457 because replacements aren't available and the customer wanted it repaired. :)
Wow takes some minerals cutting front end of that up great work 👏 👍
Watch the next project thats in , way more minerals needed for that one :D
Nice
Thank you :)
Hi Steve, Thank you for showing off your great work in such detail. Is that a flap disc you are using at 10:06 to zip through those spot welds?
hi Ian , yes it is, it will be a 80 grit one.
I’d have been tempted to ask you guys to fit entirely new inner wings instead of just the front pieces, that’s so crusty around the filler neck!
Just think how much quicker those MX5s would be if only there was a market for replacement parts - but then we wouldn’t see your skills at fabricating all those strange shaped pieces - well done Steve - and keep telling Ryan they don’t make replacement panels for Datsun.
Hi David Thank you , some of the panels are available but yes the whole idea of YCR on youtube is showing people how to fabricate panels :)
Cant wait to get started on your car :)
It would be so helpfull if you would number the vedios to mah=ke it esy to watch in the sequencee theywere made , but realy enjoying them
The joy of well made repair panels
Makes the job easier :)
Its interesting to see how they made these cars.
Yes they are all different :)
You're a wizard with that grinder 😁
He uses that grinder same as a surgeon uses a scapel.
thank you :)
haha thank you Neal :)
very skilful, I wish you were nearer to Worcester! I have a Mk 2 Jag needing your workmanship
Hi Rob :) It's a while since Iv done a mk2 jaguar :) we have cars shipped from both ends of the country to us so Worcester isn't too far :)
Ok so i need to give you a call next week to discuss😊
@@cafecars-uk I'd be interested to make a series out of a mk2 jaguar :)
@@cafecars-uk we can be contacted via email on steve@yorkshire-car-restoration.co.uk
Awesome work! Where are the ST body panels and front end panels from?
I'll find out for you :)
is it worth repairing? Just need a new body indeed. Patching is not so great no?
clean body shells aren't available, and when they are they are extortionate amounts of money so this is usually the only way to keep them on the road when done correctly :)
Again great work guys.
thank you Robert :)
you need to change that soundtrack. It's doing my head in
Thanks, its the rear part of inner wing id like to see and refit, are the parts pattern or factory
It's coming up :)
Love your chanel but please cover the windscreen with something
Thank you yes it's covered now :)
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
:D
That looks like a three-year-old Honda in Maine
haha
When this first rolled in I thought it looked great- what on earth do they need to do to it........WRONG. I didn't realise Posches could rust like this, though this one looks to have been neglected somewhat. Loving the videos. Thank you.
Even the later 993 with galvanized panels has rust traps😮
thank you Steve :) yes it did initially look nice :)
at minute 14:20 i see a white car in the background. Can't wrap my head around it. What is it? Looks like someone went "creative" on an early Porsche :D Also i am just learning bodywork on my Porsche 912 and learning from your videos. Thanks and keep up the good work ;)
Thank you :) it's our next series :) an Aston Martin DB6 :)
When are we going to see the resr cut off and refitted, all I get is fitting flared arches on finished car
Vid out tonight :)
Love your work , I wish you were close to Liverpool so I could have you weld my old Mercedes though it only needs a few patches it would be nice to get it done properly
Hi Jason, thank you :) we have just had a car delivered back to Liverpool that we have just finished :)
The new panels look really good and seem to fit well. I hope that's true.
they do seem to be good :)
I was wondering why you couldn’t just lop off the front clip from the gas tank forward and start with all new metal? May improve integrity and strength of the front end ? I’m not a body guy, just wondering from a layman.
Well for one it would cost a fortune. Two can't find second hand good ones as they are still on the shell as there is no need to cut a clean shell up and three if that was the process we would need the floors (as you will see in later videos), sills rear inner arch 1/4 etc so basicly almost all the car so why not just shell it, but by the time you factor into it replacing and transferring all the parts and doing the modifications to it. You may has well gone out and purchased a genuine clean ST, this way is much much cheaper and much more fun for us and our viewers like yourself :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration Not sure you actually can find many ST's to buy. I'd wager they are a bit like rocking horse droppings ?
My main question is: Whst happened with this car? Was it in the water for a longer time? Isn’t Porsche galvanized? Wouldn’t it have been better to replace the hole front?
Still, great work 👍
This is typical for this year car :) yes it would be better to get a whole front end but a good front end is rare and very exspensive as it would be attached to a good back end and if it's got a good backend it would be dismantled for parts it would be a good car as this is the main reason they are scrapped :)
It must be beyond economical repair with this much work needed? The time you guys will put in to this will be immense.
If its done at home it’s just materials costs, but paying Someone is another question.
It's not an uneconomical repair. We aren't exspensive :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration well that’s good to know, keep up the good work fella’s.
I have a pair of blacksmith horse hoof cutters, used them for years for grabbing those strips. Get a start and just rip the spot welds...
Good tip but iv used that method before and if the metal is a little weak underneath it tears holes but again defo a good tip thank you :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration As a trained toolmaker for a good while I re-trained as a panel beater so grinding spot weld drills was easy so I would drill the Sweld then they would ping off. My friends wife bought a horse box with out any of us looking at it...rocky horror show. Patch or cab and no cabs about. ua-cam.com/video/hpcn7MQdz-Q/v-deo.html
Is the car not at the stage where it needs stripping and dipping. so you know where you are?? especially as you are modifying it.
Thats not what the customer wants and has been said it's also a lot more money and a lot more work
I restored a Volvo PV654 from 1933; this car had very less rust than this german "quality car"...
All depends on how the previous keepses treated it :)
I had been drilling the spot welds. Your method is 10,000 times faster.
so why not use spot weld drill bits and panel splitter?
Spot weld drill bi s take off too much of the metal that is to be left to weld to for my liking, it's just the way I work :) for me this way preserves the remaining metal :)
Porsche getting the ultimate face lift
it is thank you :)
I love the 911 and Datsuns/RX-7, so it’s really cool watching you guys do these REALLY BAD cars some justice.
thank you we really appreciated the support :)
I assume that the bucket under the car no longer has any petrol in it what with all of those sparks flying about?
You are assuming correctly as that would be stupidity.
True art there my friend:)
Thank you we appreciate it :)
Just curious as to how you pick your cars and how do you manage to make a profit as I can see the work you put in to do a proper job. The vids are really useful and much appreciated.
We dont pick our cars, the customers bring them to us for repair so whatever they bring we mend :)
We make a profit from charging for our work but we are cheaper than anywhere else and thank you for your support :)
The videos must be a faff but great to be able to show the punters just what was involved . Enjoy the w/e.!
Good work…
thank you :)
Was the owner of porsche aware of the rust under the poor bodywork?
Wish I'd brought my porsche to you for its restoration
Thank you Nigel :)
You have got some cojones. Bravo.
Iv spent 30 year chopping cars like this up :)
What a job 😲. Maybe you can use screws to put the new panels on...easier for the next guy😂🤣
that would be worst than it came in haha :)
Crazy to think that the most plausible reason for the start of the rust problems many years back is the piss poor condition of the British roads, couple bare spots through the sealer in the arches with the mix of road salt. Every car i've owned with rust was due to either damage to the sealer or previous owners never cleaning the muck behind the Arch lips. To think people spending thousands on brand new cars just to get ruined
the UK dose use a lot of salt on the roads :)
