Subbed when he said I am not sure what this is called but here is how you take it out. That's how I fix things.
One of the best video's I have seen in ages. I can't believe that a couple of guys who couldn't change a brake pad 2 years ago are TH-cam content hero's. They remind me of the early episodes of Wheeler Dealer. It's no surprise to me that monster channels like DDE are now pivoting to your content format.
30:09 Using the bonnet as a whiteboard, amazing idea :D
It's great you show the whole rebuild in one vid. Yes it's as long as a feature film but you leave it and come back to it. Not that I did. Too often folks put up one phase of the job then promise another soon. And then you miss it.
I always wanted to do something like you are doing but never had the the time, the place or the bollocks to do it. In my 70's now so watching a dream.
My absolute dream spec ... the yellow touches make the car for sure !! Stunning colour & a great rebuild !!
Great work Chris.
I am a tradesman spray painter over here in South Australia and have been repairing crash damaged cars in my spare time and have managed to make money on every car I’ve rebuilt because I do most of the work myself.
I really like seeing what you’re doing and I hope you keep making these videos for us to watch. I also appreciate you adding it all up and showing just how much it is really costing you.
Keep up the good work. 👍
The combo i thought straight away yellow seatbelts and callipers so glad you did it
With the light looms you can get off scrap yards from other vehicles, ford's, its a Bosch maf too. You did great but you could of cut costs other ways.. if you even need wiring diagrams give us a shout.
Loving the whole start to finish Lord of Rings version of the Jaaaaaag. So much work gone into this car. Killer.
Love the part when you looking for parts, hope to see more of that. Keep up the work and good luck to you.
What I like the most about your video and why I subscribed was that you showed it start to finish and I didn't have to suffer through watching a 6 month build and I watched it from start to finish great job but I knew you were going to be way over on such a limited model and a newer car and jaguar is notorious for there depreciation 😢.
😅😅😅😅
It’s fantastic to see how you’ve evolved since this project. Up there in the Premier League with the best. 👏👏👏
definitely the yellow seatbelts are winning. nicely done and look forward to further content
I see Matt A is doing Full Build videos now… must have seen how good yours are, I love the full builds! Nice one👏
I think you'll find that Matt has actually been doing the Full Crash/Rebuilds alot longer than Chris......the 2 of them are actually working on a Cat S McLaren that they were having trouble with as the Carbon Shell was damaged and McLaren Wouldnt Even Touch It at all
Wow watching the jag get painted what a beautiful shark blue colour! Looks mint!
The painting process is just satisfying af 🔥
I like the start to finish format as well. Lots of good builds on thr internet but you rarely can find them let alone in order
Go pro on the spray gun was pure genius 👏👏👏👍
This channel deserves more subscribers.
Have loved Jag since XJ Vanden plas in the 80s 90s before the founder died and it became ford. I love anything super wide and super low... Like 60s inpalas.
Reminds me of when me and a mate were stripping an E46 to make a track car so dash out for roll cage - it was my car and he broke the windscreen removing the A pillar airbag. Swiftly followed by me doing exactly the same thing on the other side. These things happen!!
Hi Chris and team ...*cheddar 44:51*
Episode 25 ...wow 😳😳! That's flown mate. I've enjoyed one for different reasons and from day one up until now it's just improving and improving. The switch between preferred joinery etc ...makes each episode fresh and different and I'll never get bored of watching craftsmen making hard jobs look far easier than they are....
Totally agree with payment terms. You agree to the cost ... payment terms and you pay ... they'd never expect a meal without paying for it 😊
James Landscapes....seems a decent lad and rocking the guns, tats and sandals😮 ...I see loads of lads in crocs , sliders and shorts for work....wtf 😂😂😂
Comfy but not safe 😮
Well done to the Gilet winners ...well done boys and generous of you Chris 🙏
We've had a lovely week of weather....let's hope it continues a little longer 🙏🙏🙏 🐝 safe, 🐝happy

Love to see the full build in one go
Think u have done an amazing job mate, non crashed sell for about 60k! Even with urs having been crashed, I think u cud make a tidy profit.
What a shame I have only just seen this video.. I worked on the preproduction F-types at browns lane plant and also as a rectifier as Castle Bromwich Plant. Can probably change "Topper Pad" in less than 2 hours.. Shame I would have loved to have come and done if for free..
What a nice gesture! I'd love a SVR. I owned a V6S for a few years and fell in love with the F-type; what a sound track that car has.
Fun fact the f types engine noise has been omitted into the British motor Museum as the last v8 petrol 😢

Thx Chris, I enjoy the complete builds . Fantastic result on the build considering its only your 3rd 🎉
Absolute brilliant video thanks for speaking about all that you were doing . I'm a fitter 40 years and I have to say you did an amazing job you should be very very happy because doing what your doing is very good for people like me who never worked on this type of car so cheers lad brilliant 👏. Hope to travel your way one day would love to drop in and say hello. For me I'm going to build a car from scratch.
For me nothing quite handles like a Jaaaaag. Very underrated drivers car.
Oh Jaguar, you made the E-type, now the F-type, don't you just have to love these cars !? So damn gorgeous.
And it might have taken a bit to find it, but it sure is a nice rack...
That's a beautiful car. wish I had some extra cash. I only have a 2007 mazda 3 4 door sedan with 2.0L 5spd. I'd love to turbo charge it, put a full sport exhaust on it, a sport suspension, 18" wheels and a nice body kit. I had a.Newr engine, New clutch, newr transmission installed and stock struts and springs. It's all Stock, but I'd love to give it some more horsepower with a turbo and maybe a chip in the ecu
and throw in a 6spd transmission on top of it. It's not a Jaguar, but I love that little car. Even with the stock suspension and new tires, the car is small and low to the ground, so it handles really good around and of the windy roads where I live, but its just not fast enough. I wish I had the money to build it.
80k congrats chis
Build was a massive gamble. You are very brave taking it on and compared to what you bought ot looks good.
The fit on the drivers door looks bad which would explain the wind noise but you can't have ot all with a high date car.
Top job👍🏻
My man..
Nothing is never enough until you try...
As you know one of the scriptures says...."So do not fear, for I am with you"
Much blessings 🙌 and success.
Would have been nice to see a valuation from the dealership. Brave man to take on such a repair job and a really nice end result!
velocity blue before the clear looks amazing like a (velocity blue satin )
Metallic gold would sit nice with the blue for the caliper. 👍
Brilliant and honest video, great narration for two hours plus I'm in the trade loved every minute.
Lads are good crack especially the windscreen!!!! This happens on jobs the daft unforeseen things usually when operatives are tired....
I forgot to say earlier, I'm guessing that yourself and Mat Armstrong are mates as your content is so similar.
It's great that you both are able to do something that you clearly have a passion for and make a living at doing so. And also sharing the entire journey from start to finish (warts and all) through TH-cam.
Great build (my nephew has the same model of Jaguar) and the very best to you for all your future builds.
I have a '17 Ftype SVR - yeah she's a beast
Loving your pick of the contrast colour -YELLOW love it -Lots Well ďoneon your Channel
This is a great car - nice change to see a full build video! Must of taken ages to upload!
...................................,......,,, ,.,
Hell of a job Chris! You and your crew did one HELL OF A JOB! I love the fact that your enthusiasm is equally matched by your talent! A HUGE SALUTE from balmy Las Vegas, Nevada USA!
This was a great watch
Personally I would of kept the gray wheels and had yellow calls, now that would pop 😍 love the way you commentated through the whole thing and explained everything 👍 you have a new subscriber for sure 🥰👍
This is one of the better car restoration videos I've seen in a while great job and great presenting really explaining the full process of the work and and ordering parts from various sources. And bringing the car to Jaguar to give it their stamp of approval was a nice touch. Keep up the great great and I just subscribed to your channel 👍
its a rebuild not a resto,, knowing the difference is quite important if your paying,, resto's are stupid expensive
When you were rmoving the dashboard, I was asking myself, shouldn't these guys remove the windshield? I mean I've watched tons of videos on auto restorations and most if not all, remove the windshield when removing the dashboard. Anyway, as amazing the job you've done here so is your happy demeanor throughout. Well done, mate. New sub 🙂
Absolutely amazing really enjoyed the video
Love the F-type, The SVR is a dream car of mine, thus colour 😍 👌 amazing job mate!
You are so skilful,really enjoy the videos,really like the journey including mistakes,really superb thank you
Well done on getting the dash out
Loving your videos mate. You’ve come a long way! I’m a detailer too and love doing this sorta stuff too! Keep up the good work!
This is THE MOST UNDERSUBSCRIBED channel on youtube!.. Love your work Chris, you da man!.. Keep it up brother. You and @matt_armstrong are my favourite dudes :)
Hi Chris, LR tech here thought you should know 13:54 the number you’re looking at is an engineering number here and not a part number you’ll have more trouble searching via a engineering number as this will be exact to your vehicle however the part number would probably cross between certain vehicles for example an I pace hope this helps in the future !
Dan
Love your presentation, Very honest and forthright. Well done.
Great project great car. Well done on effort for sure Chris
Well done dean 👍 you done so much I would leave the bonnet blue 👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊👊
Congrats for this great build 😊❤
I think that’s a win 👍well done
Found you through Mat Armstrong channel. I like how you want to do everything just right with the wiring for the steering wheel airbag. When you took the dash out the 2nd time did you find out where the 2 extra bolts when? Amazing rebuild!!! It would be nice if you would put the year in the description.
Chris, love the effort you put into your car you make me want to do the same to mine. You’re the best keep up the great hard work
Great presentation skill and really enjoyed the build what a result it looks awesome believe it's a great car to drive comfort wise
Youve Got to change the Red to To Yellow or even a Orange (coachline,calipers etc) it will make the SVR pop and Stand Out just that bit more than the rest
Lovely car love the wheels, great video
Great video mate!! just watched it all the way through
Much appreciated!
After watching the entire build, I was pleased to see that you went with yellow callipers, which was what I chose (or white).
So, as the saying goes, 'Great minds think alike'. 😅😅
great video really good indepth look at what can be done what i would like to see apart from the full cost of the rebuild is that you factor in the man hours ?
Well done mate a good watch , sound lad 👍🏻
The ones I worked on the glove box work with electrical lock
You did a great Job Chris
That is an absolutely stunning looking and sounding car. Quality content 👍🏼
Love your videos bro 👊🏽
Iv binged watched this channel all weekend
Love this build, you did an awesome job on this build. Look forward to more of your future projects!
Great build 👏. Beautifull car. I watched the whole video in 1 go it was so interesting. I wouldnt even watch a movie if its as long as this video is but I guess that goes to show how engaging this was. Good luck with the re-sale.
i think that is a good way to go. chris slix good luuk.from owen d shand in jamaica
Real enjoyed this. Car looks incredible!
Class video again ❤
I have a XJR X350 4.2 SC and if the battery voltage drops even by 1 or 2 volts it throws up all sorts of spurious dashboard faults. So I would put the battery on charge and see if that cures the faults.
Those are interesting ceiling lighting - do you have more information on them?
Chris just watched this start to finish in one sitting and it was brilliant! Loved all 2 hours and 40 minutes of it! You should be very proud of what you did, she's beautiful! Well done matey!!
Appreciate it! Thanks so much
This was seriously interesting and enjoyable video to watch 😎(learnt so much-brilliant)
Very enjoyable to watch. Keep posting great content like this 👍.
Yes 👍🏼 maté another full build episode ❤❤ keep up the good content mate 🎉
Maté?
Agree with Jason Clark3057. Really enjoyed watching you. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 you are very very good. I specifically picked up on the point you made that even though fixing some of the larger jobs looked daunting, once you got stuck in it wasn’t so bad. But that is a sign of your passion and dedication! It’s great to see this. You’ve inspired me to do what I used to do in my teens (I’m 64 now teach Physics and love cars) I’ve noted all you’ve done and we’ve a Mercedes SLK sport and I think we’ll do a tribute to someone and make a video too. Only you and Mat have inspired me and my wife to do it! Thanks keep going live your content. Just watched the full 2hrs as I’m laid off work with a damaged back and today hasn’t been so painful watching you take the jag from disaster to showroom condition. I watched your trip to Monaco did you sell the car yet?
Fantastic channel very entertaining and informative thanks Nate 😎👍
Thanks! Glad you are enjoying 😊
Wheels look mint on the car. Wasn't sold at first 🤣
Just getting into your videos mate.. Seen you with mat on his channel so I knew your content would be good.. 😊
Great job pro thanks for this long video
Took afew bit to get thru but it was a good build nice work , coulda swore you said " is the dogs dangles"' lol i agree it definitely is.
Great job mate, just subscribed and this is my first watch. Love it.
Great video particularly liked the screen puns. Keep making the videos, from another leicester car fan 😂
BEAUTIFUL CAR!!!
How about a Jaaaag x150 XKR or XKR-S rebuild? Congratz on a wonderful project man!
Great work Chris and team
A live in York just near that dealership acomb.
Good work Chris
amazing vid! Thanks for sharing.
Hello Hello From Canada!!! I love this car and I'm new to your channel so I'll be looking at lots of past episodes to catch up on. Totally mad respect to you for installing the whole new steering wheel clockspring instead of hacking in sketchy wiring for the airbag replacement. I don't subscribe to all the new channels I watch, but I did subscribe, because the clockspring replacement shows how much you care about the "next owner" and future driver safety of the car. I'm concerned and a little confused why you didn't do any of the mods on the front inner fenders that you said you planned. The heavy duty front calipers will need all of the added air flow that the vents you didn't cut out before installing the inner wheel wells. Were you really that stuck and short for time to neglect installing the vents? The thing I am also dying to know is if the dealership gave you a current market value if you resell the car??? Keep up the awesome content and I can't wait to see what you jump into next. 🤘😁👍
not sponsered, just found this channel seeing his follower count makes me actually dust of the keyboard and making me comment on a video. i don't do this often. but he, lets all click that follower button. NOW. also as he just became a full on youtuber it would help alot for getting his videos more pushed out broadly (i think) love the video's keepo it up dude!
