    What a lovely little Corsa! You did a fantastic job! This was my first car. Mine was a 1998, deep blue, two door. It was a surprisingly agile car for the city. Sadly, Czech Republic is a "salt-friendly" country and the car completely rotted away in 2012 and had to be scrapped. Its last journey was with me, my wife and our newborn daughter from the hospital. I will never forget.

      @@carlgarrett5142 >The term "Rust Belt" is a dysphemism to describe industry that has "rusted out", usually referring to the impact of deindustrialization, economic decline, population loss, and urban decay on these regions attributable to the shrinking industrial sector especially including steelmaking, automobile manufacturing, and coal mining. The term gained popularity in the U.S. beginning in the 1980s[5] when it was commonly contrasted with the Sun Belt, which was surging. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rust_Belt

      90's cars were the most economic ever produced. With a little effort one can make those cars run for 30-40 years. I have a garage, set of tools and a second-hand old Miller welding machine. My 90's cars won't go away soon. Sadly, people don't like their cars anymore, they just like to drive them. So we are wasting massive amounts of natural resources these days to produce new cars that won't last 10 years on the road.

    Massive 'like' on this one.
    I have been detailing many years, but watching TH-cam videos of professional detailers flexing about their 'skills' while cleaning already clean cars, and basically just using their videos for sponsored product placements, is getting B O R I N G.
    This was genuinely brilliant, and I say that absolutely genuinely.
    Thank you so much, it is really interesting to see real skills, transforming a tired and faded older 'normal' car, into something which looks ready for a forecourt. You did a great job with this.

    That was my wife's first car, same faded colour and everything (though badged as a Vauxhall). Nobody would buy it, they all said it needed a respray and wanted to offer almost nothing for it. I bought some rubbing compound and cut it back by hand to the original colour and I then made it shine (plus made the black bits black again). The next person to view it bought it. Good work!

    Few spray can tips:
    - buy spray can adapter that allows you to hold the can as paint gun, its cheap, it more ergonomic and your finger don't get tired 😅;
    - buy nozzles with wider spread, it will save quite a lot of time when doing larger parts like wings or doors.
    This two things from my experience was so helpful when I was painting front wings on a car I was really amazed how speedy whole process was.

    Ich bereite hobbymäßig auch Autos auf und freue mich über jedes alte Auto, was ich aufbereiten darf.
    Denn Dorte sieht man erst mal ein richtiges Ergebnis. Den Besitzern der Autos fallen dann teilweise die Augen aus dem Kopf, wenn sie sehen, was man aus so einem alten Auto noch rausholen kann.
    Sehr sehr gute Arbeit, die du da geleistet hast. Weiter so!

    "Cheap" cars need love too. Everyone repairs rare and expensive cars but a Standard Corsa? Rare. And honestly, these cars are still part of automotive history and culture as well. The masses get around in the "cheaper" cars not the expensive ones. And that needs to be preserved. In 20 Years, not many of those cars will be left at all I think.

    Please put a lot of fluid wax in the doors, trunk lid, the rear quarters, sills, lower radiator support and chassis legs as they are prone to rust on these cars. It will really help for the next years. Have done this to my Corsa A and it is still going strong after 38 years.

    This car aged in dignity, and you preserved that: well done. (whoever ripped this little car a new one deserves the very same)

    Good honest restoration, giving this car a new lease of life, so satisfying knowing this car hasn't been crushed. Top work.

    This is one of my favourite restoration jobs on TH-cam so far! So much love for what is, ultimately, a pretty insignificant vehicle. The only problem is that I now wish that I could go to a doctor or a spa and have as thorough a restoration job 😅 Looking forward to the interior part! Aaand... subscribed!

    Astonishing how good it looks afterwards! Had a three door Corsa B as my first car from 1999 to 2006, memories :-) 45 horsepowers but never let me down :-) I guess it was the first drive for a lot of people. It's good to see someone taking care of these cars before they totally vanish from our streets.

    That's the first video I saw from you.
    You made it look easy and fun.
    Now I want to repair a car myself, and that is the most important thing in that type of videos.
    Keep it up! You have potencial

    Mate, I randomly came across your channel when you just started this car and I've been hooked!! You've done such a great job on it, the difference from where you started to what it looks like now is night and day. Keep up the great work mate!! Big fan here from Sydney, Australia!!

    Man this video just straight up slaps, the editing, the tunes. And the fact that you get to see the kind of car that I myself have seen so many times on blocket for pretty much nothing and have thought: Man wouldnt it be fun to fix something like this up and have as a little fun summer car. Well this video is just exactly that and then some. Great work, cant wait to see the interior next time and the finished product.

    I love watching videos like this. I myself would like to restore an older car like this, about 20-25 years old. But I don't have enough knowledge. I already do the usual service, oil and filter change. But I would like to learn how to change at least the brake fluid and discs and pads. I would probably change the spark plugs and the coolant myself. But I have a 4-year-old car, and after the first year of use, I had the chassis and hollow parts of the body protected by a company that deals with this. They recommend renewal of protection every 2 years. The problem is that I don't have an elevator and it's disgusting to crawl down there. But every year I try at least enough to spray at least the more exposed parts around the ruts with the same product, this time in a spray (Krown).
