FixItNick Ford vans have been here forever. Mechanically a great van however the down side to them especially the Transit version is they rust within 5 or 6 years around the chassis and sills. As we live in a wet damp climate and freezing temps in winter this causes problems. Ford never put copious amounts of undersealer on their van chassis. Here in winter roads are treated with grit and salt mixed and this attacks the metal. VW, Nissan, Renault, Opel etc are well treated underside however.
FixItNick the transit was designed by ford UK and ford Germany. Number one selling van in the UK and Europe is the ford transit custom. In general ford vans are the most sold. Sprinter copied the mk3 transit. We have all sorts of vans in UK. VW transporters. Mercedes. Vauxhall vivaro. Renault. Nissan. Citroen. All sorts 👍
nice work! really impressed with what you did! £25,000+ van in the uk especially with the ac set up! my mk 6 transit hi top needs some dents sorted but not that severe!!
Panel beaters are often underrated. Frustratingly, despite the many hours straightening or replacing chassis sections, spot welding, plug welding, mag welding etc. It’s always the painter who gets the credit for making the job ‘shine’ 😐
yes sir, but this van has not been sprayed yet, just with a rattle can for the time being so it doesnt rust around the door jamb welds, the rest of it is factory white

Impressive, but here in Italy a repair like that would be illegal...if the van takes another crash on the same place it will be a lot worse and dangerous.
FixItNick Has nothing to do wih availability of parts, just that after a car had a crash like that the VIN number will have a red cross in the central system and will not be able to get back onto the road without a firm technical check goverment related company.
Zanzi97 here in uk the van would be categorised and this damge is repairable so legally can go back om the road.love to have the v6 petrol auto here but even though we are an oil producing country(scotland) the 80% tax on fuel kills that idea.robbing goverment here.
Nick you can’t take all the praise for fixing wife’s transit when you can clearly see the young lad doing his bit on it Lol 😂 😆 And you are very very good at what you do// I m really impressed with your work// The kid will have all your knowledge of fixing damage repairable motors !! That’s one stunning transit van the wife will love it !! God bless you and your family nick ,,
FixItNick I am a dealer. Meaning I buy and sell cars legally from a small shop out of a commercially zoned shop (dealership) and we buy cars from a dealer ONLY auction. Some cars are AS IS (Red light) no warranty. You get what you buy, some cars are (yellow light) some warranty if it doesn’t work you could take them back and get your money but they were maybe frame damage and repaired, and some cars are (green light) meaning Off - lease cars with warranty and low miles. Ready to flip. Anything wrong with the green light cars take them back to the auction for a full refund.
I'm not afraid to take on a task like this, I used to change out the entire wiring harnesses in Abrams Tanks! But, I lack the sufficient knowledge to know if a frame is tweaked and at what point is it not worth repair? I genuinely believe a lot of insurance companies do heavier than normal write offs and just move on, which is great for someone like yourself with the knowledge/experience to see frame damage. Is there any advice you can give to an amateur that wants to tackle a very similar job? I am on SCA's auction site every single day looking for that perfect Ford Transit to rebuild, but I always hesitate because I lack that knowledge. Hence, why I came here to your video today! LOL

I work in the body shop “Metal Finisher” that this Ford Transit are Assembly at. I’ve worked on some messed up ones. But nothing like that. Great video. By the way, what’s wrong with the other Transit. The one without the AC unit on the roof.
Thanks man, other one was rolled over, but front was all good, I bought it as donor for the AC van build. The rolled over one I put back together and it's running and driving will put back on auction because don't need it now

I didn't notice it was a refrigerator van until the final shots. Now I understand why you rebuilt it.
Good job.
Yes good reefers are hard to find on auction, lots of cargo vans, this one was worth the headaches because tall roof and extra long
NOONE IN THE WHOLE WORLD WOULD HAVE BEEN SO KIND TO SAVE LITTLE VANS LIFE!

A fine repair. Well done. First time i have seen a Ford Transit in the states.
Thx mate, I see them all over, where you from?
FixItNick I'm from Ireland. They are one of the main commercial vans here and in europe.
Got it, I thought ford copied sprinter and started making them in US to compete, didn't know they were around before
FixItNick Ford vans have been here forever. Mechanically a great van however the down side to them especially the Transit version is they rust within 5 or 6 years around the chassis and sills.
As we live in a wet damp climate and freezing temps in winter this causes problems. Ford never put copious amounts of undersealer on their van chassis. Here in winter roads are treated with grit and salt mixed and this attacks the metal.
VW, Nissan, Renault, Opel etc are well treated underside however.
well good thing its from CA and i live in CA lol
It took me an hour to realise my washer pump was gone after going through all my fuses...and you go and do this 🤯
Hahaha, washer pump was gone from windshield fluid canister??
@@FixItNick yep..its in garage now..I dont have the right tools.
That's my excuse n I'm sticking to it 😅
Backbone of Britain the ford transit. Enjoyed this video
Thx sir, didn't know transits were there thought only sprinters
FixItNick the transit was designed by ford UK and ford Germany. Number one selling van in the UK and Europe is the ford transit custom. In general ford vans are the most sold. Sprinter copied the mk3 transit. We have all sorts of vans in UK. VW transporters. Mercedes. Vauxhall vivaro. Renault. Nissan. Citroen. All sorts 👍
thats pretty cool didnt know that
Mate, the only back bone of Britain is Corsas, KAs and A classes. 😂
The U.S. Transit is a different animal from the one in Europe, though. For one thing, it's rear wheel drive.
Ford transit never dies
Lol yup
This one does in the next crash.
Nice work sir! Not sure I’d fix something that bad,but you made it look easy!
Lol thx ya me neither, I had no choice, we needed freezer van for flowers and this was the only one available at the auctions at the time,
Man was born to build.
thx lol
This men couldn't repair this van without Kid! 😹👍👍👍👍
Great job man👍🏻
Thx bro
The dissection of the front end and dash was quite educational .. I own one of these and had no idea.
Thx, ir was scary honestly lol
I'm a Ford Fan, and you are so nice, good job daddy ;)! Have a nice day!
thanks bro, you are the best ! lol

nice work! really impressed with what you did!
£25,000+ van in the uk especially with the ac set up!
my mk 6 transit hi top needs some dents sorted but not that severe!!
here in US these run about $45-$50k for tall roof longest version with the freezer.

In some countries yes, but in US since we have access to all the parts anything can be fixed if done right

Good job they are not in Italy!
legally can go back on the road as categorised as repairable.
Zanzi97 here in uk the van would be categorised and this damge is repairable so legally can go back om the road.love to have the v6 petrol auto here but even though we are an oil producing country(scotland) the 80% tax on fuel kills that idea.robbing goverment here.
