Hey bro first time to your channel am from Jamaica i have a 190e also want to fully car it but all so legal to drive the street i have a lot to learn from you i love this platform
Project is coming along amazing, when I seen the first video I always wanted to do this, but don’t have the skills set you have. Well done!! Had a suggestion about all the front end components A/C stuff, radiator, fans, water cooler.. and so on. Just a thought!! Maybe extend the front fenders and hood would be a lot easier then relocating all that stuff?!? Just the front part of the fenders, naturally you would have to add more material to the wheel arch of bumpers to fit better.. ?? To me that seams a lot easier then relocating all that stuff that was designed that way.
had to go back to 1st vid to understand what you're doing, fuck im sold. KEEP GOING BOSS. you got me inspired to put a miata shell onto a ford 3500 chasis.
i love this project, and your skill set! i hope your not rushing some of the jobs for a quick result, im already waiting for the bell to ring for the next video
These videos have been fascinating to watch. Amazing work you are doing. Too bad the videos are not longer with more content to see all the detail work you had to do. Looking forward to seeing its completion.
Eugen, thanks for watching! Apologies about the audio, I'm mostly through filming Episode 5, and after that I'll start using an external mic. It's tough doing it all the work and filming by myself, but I need to make it happen!
For the front arches could you use the originals and then trim the a1 kit arches and fibreglass them on to the original?. You could then make molds to do fibreglass? Tofu garage has good tutorial on that
hahah one thing leads to another but its all good progress. Are you going to install the radiator at the back? it's pretty crammed up upfront. I love it that you're figuring things out as you go. I wonder how it would look like with the fenders lengthened by like 10 centimeters. Can't wait for what you come up with next
Thanks Joel! I'm going to make everything fit up front no matter what! Well, that's a bit of a stretch, but I'd like to keep the exterior looking stock....
They kept it stock, just moved a bunch of things around, the intercooler even ended up under Meath the car in the rear! Hope I can make it all fit within the stock confines
I can't wait for the sequel... Go on
Thanks! Hope to get to work on the widebody asap!
I stumbled on this looking for a Mercedes 38 pin scanner for a 500e. This is awesome! I'm surprised the videos don't have more views.
Inspiring series that's really well produced. Excellent work.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks for update. Great to see she is a roller. Great to show the problem solving. We have a 500E w124 and a 190. Would love to make a 500 v8 190e
That would be badass, do it!
really starting to come together!

Glad you’re enjoying the build! That Miata/3500 mashup would be a trip! Check out Body Swaps: Unibody and body chassis swaps page on FB

Thanks! Next up is the widebody, I’m excited to see the results, but need to take my time and do it right
Good to see another video! Keep it up

Eliant, thanks for watching! I'm just finishing up the next episode, and it's significantly longer with more, detail, hope you enjoy it!
Nice project. Like it😊
That's coming mate well done 👏 it's going to be a beast.
I've got my own body swap I'm going to do in next year or so. Can't wait.
Thanks for watching! What’s your project?
fd up project, however, i salute ja! will be epic once done. perhaps a small bump in power, cause one can??? loll
Amazing stuff, really nice project. I've watched through the series so far, but quick tip - try to get your audio sorted, my ears are bleading 😅
Eugen, thanks for watching! Apologies about the audio, I'm mostly through filming Episode 5, and after that I'll start using an external mic. It's tough doing it all the work and filming by myself, but I need to make it happen!
You are really crazy but I like it 😅

I don't know if you want the car with AC or not, but at this time would BE easyer to do the project without AC, and then, if you want try to add it
Virginia summers suck! AC will be a must-have, it will be well worth the work involved to keep it!
AC is even essential in England for the 2 weeks we have sun, so I imagine in a more commonly hot area it would be painful without.

I didn’t know Ben Stiller was into BMW’s..
Hah! I get that all the time. Thanks for watching
Why didn’t you make the front a bit longer like they did to the c55 amg aswell?
They kept it stock, just moved a bunch of things around, the intercooler even ended up under Meath the car in the rear! Hope I can make it all fit within the stock confines
