    You are an artist sir. I especially enjoy watching you transform flat sheet metal into art. I almost wish I had a rusted out whatever so I could become your customer, but since I live in sunny Indonesia and ride motorcycles.......that will not happen. Watching your work is simply, sheet metal therapy for the mind and soul. Wish you all the best, in this crazy world, you are the real deal.

    Great repair as always. Just wondering, would you guys ever consider getting one of these laser machine, it’s crazy how fast they can remove rust

    • @ToreDL87
      @ToreDL87 Рік тому

      That laser video Edd made kinda spoiled us, didn't it?
      Issue is YCR already talked about not actually charging all that much for their work, all said'n done a laser costs 25-50k so would be outright impossible given their income.
      The lasers don't fully remove the rust too, and do leave pitted areas with sorta semi-deactivated rust, they also don't give a sense for how thin the metal actually is.
      A neat little 5 gallon pot pressurized Sandblaster wouldn't be a bad investment though, if not a bit messy (nothing a bit of masking work won't fix), because it doesn't leave untreated pits, and flexes the panel a bit for a good ballpark idea of strength.
      Laser or blaster, at the end of the day they just need to get the rust outta there instead of contaminating fresh steel with rust picked up by grinding disc.
      The repairs themselves are fine though! 😁

    One huge takeaway and lesson learned here is to never overlay sheet metal over original sheet metal. When you make repairs, to make sure you aren't sealing up drain and vent holes. They are there for a reason folks!
    Steve, even that heat exchange pipe needs replacing. It's rotted too!
    This gives new meaning to pealing back the onion. There is so much work to be done just in this sill area. Some of the new sheet metal parts don't even look the same as what you are cutting out. Major boddgery has been done. Are you trying to compete with Ryan on who has the worst disaster restoration? Lol.

      @dra911 Рік тому +1

      It's a "G-Bodied" car, so could be late 70's to end of the 80's. Probably around 40 years old. All 911's have been fully galvanised since 1976, but the real issue is the dirt/grime accumulates under the wheel arches and kidney bowls - I spent many hours cleaning up mine. Fender liners would have helped, but were only added starting with the 964 (1989.)

    Misery misery misery, i'm now unfortunately having to redo my half arse job i did 3 years ago. I can't be to hard on myself though as i done it outside in all types of weather the with no cover, poor lighting, not the amount of tools i have now along with a real bad flux core welder. What's really bothered me is that i cleaned every where on the underside rear then applied waxoil that used to work but i did a scrap test and patched of rust where forming under it, the etch primer may have did something odd.
    Also what rust converter do you use? I've tried Vactan that was useless, didn't penetrate the rust pores just did the surface and left a film. Used 30% Phosphoric Acid, did okay but a pain to neutralise/clean also attacks the good metal slightly also to thin. Currently using using Fertan, best so far as it seem to penetrate the pores but the metal does rust again in a dusty way.

    • @bobfrankish8883
      @bobfrankish8883 Рік тому

      Just thought I'd throw this in. I have tried all the rust converters over the years and was recommended Fertan by a friend of mine who has been a pro restorer for 20 years. It is the best I have come across without doubt, BUT.. there is only one real remedy which is to cut out the rusted steel and weld in new. Trouble is, the welded steel now rusts way quicker and easier than the original, so lots of attention and effort has to be given, particularly to the back or blind side. Fertan reckon that after treatment you can safely leave the project for a long time, but I find this not to be the case. The art with Fertan is to keep it wet for as long as possible, at least 24 hours, this gives a better penetration into the rust pits. Also thorough degreasing pays off massively. If you have a section that it is simply impractical to cut out and replace, then degrease to death, treat with Fertan, wash off any excess, dry thoroughly and encapsulate with Rustbuster Epoxy Mastic (www.rust.co.uk), treat the back with a good cavity wax, I prefer Dinitrol but I'm sure there are loads of good ones, and hope for the best!

    At what point does this car get put in the bin? You have basically replaced everything on the car. Is this car something special? Love your work though.

    I took a welcome break from fixing rust on cars, erm, to fix rust on an Iveco motorhome instead today. Iveco was, in fairness, such a doddle compared to the curves & swerves on cars. That Porch-ster will be a lot faster once ye are done, what with the weight-reduction gains from all the filler being on the floor. :-) Bet yer glad you cleaned up
    that door-shut so well before cutting it off & binning it... I do love when I do that.. :-)
