  • In this video I do all of the front end fibreglass body repairs to my Vauxhall VX220 Turbo. this includes grinding out all the cracks, bonding it all back together with fibreglass matting and giving it a fresh coat of paint.
    If you can do these jobs to your own car you can save a huge amount of cash, as fibreglass bodywork and paintwork can be horrendously expensive.
    Huge thanks to MMG Performance for supplying the front end and loads of parts for this build! www.instagram....

    Mate, I’m in awe of your skill set, this is a major job and you don’t seemed phased.. I’m also impressed what you’ve achieved with rattle cans! Respect!

      Thank you! I really appreciate it!! I was a little bit overwhelmed with the amount of fibreglass repair work but just doing little bits at a time and waiting for everything to set each time It came out okay. Thank you 😊

    Awesome effort mate. Been here since your first 306 video. Tackling a car like this in the state it was in, isn't for the faint hearted.

    You have done a brilliant job sorting the car out so far. Bet you can't wait to take it for a proper run out. Looking forward to seeing the next video.

    will there be a video covering costs - I'm interested what you paid for a pair of headlights for example

    • @cashmachinecars
      @cashmachinecars  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes I will do a full costs breakdown in the next video! Got the headlights for £800 for the pair which I thought was a cracking deal!
