Hi Johnny. That’s a great job you did on this. Really brings back how good you can get paint finish with the right system. Definitely a credit to your work. Like how the supervisor is back on the job. Nice to see him. Thanks for sharing. Bob.
Handy tip mate skip fall out spray on the body if you are going to clay bar it unless it’s a white car (to take the little spotted rust residues out. Also stick a 5 or 6 inch polishing pad on that mate it will half your time, but again great video. Great job on that focus you should keep it and rent it out to film studios etc can get over 150 a day for doing so
I do use a bigger pad and beefier polisher on larger areas (see roof and bonnet). Interesting idea on the film car rental thing, that’s certainly not something I’ve done before! Thanks for watching 👍
@@JohnnyGetsCash yeah mate saw you using it just after I had commented at the end lol. I still use the bigger one for the bulk and only smaller around door handles / bumper areas too.. car came up nice great job
the most reliable car i ve ever driven, bought one in 2015 for cad$1800 with 100k km, i put 190k so far, engine and trany are still as strong as the first day i got it. original plugs no tranny fluid changed, spent about 1k cad on maintenance for 8 yers, i will miss it when i have to let it go one day, seemsthe only t/hing that can kill it here in east canada is rust
I agree! They’re simply too good and seem to evoke such fond memories for so many people that I can’t see them not becoming a desirable classic in the future 👍
I've found that clay barring during snowfoam stage is a great time saver. Process - wash - fallout - snowfoam- clay bar - wash - dry - machine polish. Ideal on cars at cheaper end of market.
Love the Mk1 Focus' styling. Ford were really on it then. It fitted in well with the Mk6 Fiesta and a Mk3 Mondeo. ST versions of each (150, 170 & 220) in that strong blue would be a great modern classic collection.
Wow ! it gets better and better, just goes to show what hard graft can acheive. You won't have any problems selling that, I don't think I have ever seen one of this age in better nick.
Brilliant work bringing this beautiful car back to its former glory, i used to flip cars myself, too old now lol so i do love these kind of videos, if i can give you one wee tip to finish it off a £10 chrome tip for the exhaust brings that back end out.
Looks great! I wonder how many rough-looking 20 year old cars are still on the road could be made to look like this with just a couple of days of flatting, mopping and polishing? It'll probably increase its value more than it costs to have done, but heck, most people can barely be bothered to even hoover them out! I suggested the battery was too small. I appreciate it may be "in spec," but it's still physically too small for that battery box. From new this would have had a bigger battery and I think I mentioned the fact that on old cars you do really need to exceed minimum capacity (amp hours) and cold cranking amps, as light draws and weak earths are to be expected. This is from experience (I am a mechanic who specialises in old/classic cars) and not an old-wives tale. I regularly fit batteries for people who say "the motor factors/motorist centre said it's the right one" and 2 months later they're asking me for a jump start, a recharge or to get them a bigger battery!
Great video, this focus looks stunning.. only thing I would of done that you missed is polish behind the number plates but that’s me being picky🤪 love your dog also my friend🎂🐕
I'll hold my hands up and say you're totally right. Normally I remove plates prior to a detail of this kind, however in this instance, various distractions and thoughts of what work was yet to do caused me to overlook that step. This isn't how I usually go about things though!
So much work put into this. Compared to none really.. I do however have a small observation. When polishing you could do behind the plates as well. But can't be denied that looks a different car than the one you bought. 😊

Very good transformation Johnny! It's a pleasure to watch the ugly duckling becoming a Swan :) Just a small tip... You can use magic sponge with all purpouse cleaner to get the steering wheel to the original state. (but don't rub for to long ) To hide the burned cigarette hole you can use electric lint remover to collect the fabric from the seats and then use the collected fibres to glue it into the burned hole. It will definately look much better :) Other than that You've done a great job! Can't wait for the next project!
My mum had one of those shame all the ones I see on the road look like they've fallen off a cliff and been driven through bushes so its nice to see someone care for such a popular car
That’s the beauty of the mk1 focus, so many people have fond memories of them, and in my opinion further justify why they are so worth saving! Thanks for watching!
Love my pacific green mk1 2000 1.8 owned it for 8 yrs now and never let me down. Regular oil and filter changes a must and inner rear arches and rear inner sill's need a good clean and fresh coat of underseal to keep the rust demon's away lol. Proper drivers car and spare parts still pretty easy to obtain.Had the chance about 4 yrs ago to buy a 1 owner 2000 millenium model but partner became pregnant so that purchase went out the window, which was a real shame because value must be climbing now on limited edition models for sure. Great work saving this one by the way 👍👍👍
16:10 Thats indeed the Oem right battery.. But you can put a larger battery in it where the battery housing becomes completely useful. The OEM battery with the standard amps is good enough if you don't often use air conditioning or other electronics, but if you do, it's better to install a larger battery so that the car doesn't lose power or that the car doesn't run too low idle.
Yep you smash that out the park. Back to a wonderful shine. I wonder if the guy you bought it from would like the chance to buy it back, he probably wouldn’t recognise it.
You do know you could punch a small amount of material from under. the headrest to fix those cigarette burns - way more important than accessory outlets or number plate scre covers IMO. You can also use shoe dye for the worn areas on the leather steering wheel [or. the whole thing] Keep up the good work saving cars!
The head rests are a different colour / design to the centres where the damage is so it’s not the at straight forward. I’m on the hunt for a suitable replacement seat however this is proving very difficult for a 20 year old car (as mentioned a few episodes back), but I’ll keep trying! Thanks for watching
Thanks for the video, was great to see a MK1 get a new lease of life. What detailing stuff did you use for the black door rubbers? I owned a 1999 V plated metallic green MK1 ford focus 2litre Ghia with 57k on the clock which I bought in 2007 for £1k (it was an ex ford direct car). Did about another 100k in it before I sadly had to let it go in 2014. No reliability problems during that time and was a fantastic car to drive.
absolutely amazing detailing job. I really love seeing new life being put back into these perfectly useable, but slightly older cars. I have a 2004 Rover 25 that I can't seem to let go of. I used to own a 2002 1.8 TDCi and it was a great car, but the injectors went so I had to sell it on. Just out of curiosity, has the front bumper been replaced? The colour looks slightly different?
I love watching your videos. Both informative and calming. I’d happily buy a car you’d prepared. Keep up the good work. PS Love seeing the German Shepherd too!
New on this Channel and i like what I see !!! Car is looking amazing again ! I subscribe this Channel to see more off these great clean up ! Greets from The Netherlands !
Thanks! Yes the wheel is a tad worn (it was hidden by layers of grease and grime when I got the car 🤮). At this stage I could still go all out and change the wheel and the damaged seats but it’s looking likely that I’ll sell onto someone who wants to do the last bits to make it perfect 👍
Just bought my first polisher, and have been looking around TH-cam for information. Some sites are really full on, you must do this, you must do that. Really like your more laid back approach on getting a car looking good without spending tones of cash on expensive products.
Cars looking mint, but what about paint protection? Have you/are you going to give it a good wax? Or a ceramic coating? Would be worth it after how much work you’ve done on it already mate!
Exactly this! I gave it a final polish after the cut. I really rate Turtle wax for this type of application (post-compound). It just seems to take so well! Thanks for watching, guys!
It was so much fun to watch the pimping of the old Focus and it really does look almost brand new now. But one thing seems to be wrong, the steering wheel is on the wrong side! Hehe, just kidding 😁
When you go abroad, cars like this are the norm. This would actually be classified relatively new. In the UK, it seems cars 3-5 years old are past it and replacement is needed.
I’d love to keep it wrapped for a few years and reap the benefits in a few years, but alas, it has to go soon to make room for another candidate so someone else will benefit from the inevitable price hikes in a few years!
The screen wash will get refreshed ahead of MOT (happening in an episode soon). Re the power steering, I hadn’t even considered that but it’s a worthy point, thank you!
Good job but I think you need to invest in a better compound, it's very dusty! Alot better options out there. I'd look at zvizzer personally. Also the final polishing stage, you mean waxing or a sealant
I could certainly invest some time trying to find replacement seats and a mint condition steering wheel. Initially I said I wouldn’t do that but this thing has come up so well, I’d be lying if said I wasn’t tempted!
Absolutely amazing :) Quick one, What is that detailer you used with the small head? Looked at the links and not sure what one it is haha Looking forward to the next video :)
In fairness it’s so original underneath it’d be a shame to cover it. I’d rather sell it uncovered so the buyer can see how good , original and genuine it is and then if they chose to cover it with extra protection they can 👍
This is something I could make however I’ll be the first to admit I’m by no means a professional detailer, just a trader with an obsessive eye for the small details!
Thank you, thats a real compliment! All of my music is sourced from 'EpidemicSound'- i'm not sure if it is available elsewhere like Amazon music though!
Well, as addressed in previous episodes, I hadn’t planned to change any major components (as this is a cheapie), but now that the car has come up so well I’m now somewhat tempted to change these items for immaculate pieces and complete the puzzle properly 👍
Great effort on keeping this old car on the road for a few more years. If only more people would do this, it would benefit the planet I'd say. Well done mate. But Johnny, for the love of God, please do something about the cringe-inducing 'music' (if you can even call it that)...
It’s a really tough one with music as it’s literally impossible to please everyone! I try to choose the most mass-appeal stuff I can but obviously it’s not going to hit the mark for everyone! The majority of the footage in my videos is Timelapse stuff (with no audio track) due to the nature of the lengthy processes being undertaken, so I need to add something over the top. I will continue to try and improve this aspect of my videos though 👍
@@JohnnyGetsCash No worries. You put a lot of effort in making these videos and it's only meant as a positive criticism. Maybe I'm too old and grumpy, but I hope you'll choose something for old dudes next time. Cheers.
How much will it be for sale at? Right now I’m not totally sure. I have a few more things to do to make this ready for sale (I’m a bit of a perfectionist), but I will be releasing a video soon covering everything right before it is offered to the market 👍
Your attention to detail is incredible! Love watching these
Thank you!
Great little car mate,good job.
Your attention to detail with things like the number plate screw covers and 12V socket plug’s make me happy 😃
Yes number plates caps cost pennies but look so much better when replaced 💎
I love seeing your supervisor Jake and his helpful toy 🐶
Hi Johnny. That’s a great job you did on this. Really brings back how good you can get paint finish with the right system. Definitely a credit to your work. Like how the supervisor is back on the job. Nice to see him. Thanks for sharing. Bob.
It wouldn’t be the same without him! Thanks for watching!
Your welcome. See you on the next one.
Handy tip mate skip fall out spray on the body if you are going to clay bar it unless it’s a white car (to take the little spotted rust residues out.
Also stick a 5 or 6 inch polishing pad on that mate it will half your time, but again great video.
Great job on that focus you should keep it and rent it out to film studios etc can get over 150 a day for doing so
I do use a bigger pad and beefier polisher on larger areas (see roof and bonnet).
Interesting idea on the film car rental thing, that’s certainly not something I’ve done before! Thanks for watching 👍
@@JohnnyGetsCash yeah mate saw you using it just after I had commented at the end lol. I still use the bigger one for the bulk and only smaller around door handles / bumper areas too.. car came up nice great job

Well done that focus has waited 20 odd years to be pampered and you have done it justice it looks very good
I love an underdog!
Looks amazing. Love the attention to detail. Well done again 👍
Thank you!

Great stuff. I would also remove the number plates and polish behind them, and then fit plain new ones with double-sided tape.
This is generally something I do, however in this case I neglected to do it!
You are a perfectionist. That Focus looks like brand new. Fantastic video.
Thank you!
This car is defenitely a future classic, great work with preserving it!
I agree! They’re simply too good and seem to evoke such fond memories for so many people that I can’t see them not becoming a desirable classic in the future 👍
When they say you cannot polish a turd. That doesn't apply to you. What a transformation well done your hard work and effort will pay off.😁❤

It’ll be for sale soon, stay tuned for a future video covering the finished product 👍
This is what happens when a person actually gives a sh*t about what they’re doing.
Admirable.
Thats a clean focus. Well done

So good to save it, many cars like this are wasted these days
Great job, love cleaning my car, with all the same straps ( twice a year) clean monthly in between. You just reminded me about my rear number plate.
awesome job! can't wait till the next project!
Thank you!

@@JohnnyGetsCashlet me know what price you’re looking to achieve. Where are you based?
Good to see your partner in crime German Shepherd back helping you along.
He's is the reason standards are high after all!
Good work ,although using a 3inch pad does make your job so much harder over the course of the car.i get it for tight spots though
I do use a bigger head on a more robust polisher for larger areas (see the roof and bonnet footage) 👍
Lovely looking Dog. I got replace my MK1 aerial too

Looking fresh! Is there a way to update the steering wheel? It looks a bit chewed up, and thats where the new owner will be looking at a lot.
Thanks! Yes the wheel is a tad worn (it was hidden by layers of grease and grime when I got the car 🤮). At this stage I could still go all out and change the wheel and the damaged seats but it’s looking likely that I’ll sell onto someone who wants to do the last bits to make it perfect 👍

@@stevenginnever5343 Cheers Steven, I’m glad my content has been helpful!
Surely a bigger mop would speed up the process? Your dog is cool 😎
Watch it again, I use the bigger mop for the bonnet & roof 👍
would you consider putting it into a classic car auction, I know its not that old, but its in good condition.
Agreed, it's already a rare model.
This isn’t something I’d considered to be honest, but if a suitable sale was happening soon I could certainly be tempted!
What a great job.
Lovely dog btw
Thank you!
Great video brother keep up the good content
Thanks for watching!
Very nice job and very well done.
Thank you!
Looks beautiful.. u done a fantastic job
Thank you!
be nice at traffic lights next to a mouldy one,and put the window down and say hey! yours could look like this with a lot of graft😆
Cars looking mint, but what about paint protection? Have you/are you going to give it a good wax? Or a ceramic coating? Would be worth it after how much work you’ve done on it already mate!
Not an expert but i believe ceramic coating lasts way longer so that's probably the way to go
He waxed the car after the Buff, look at 6th stage - Polish, He used a turtle wax to protect the paint :)
Exactly this! I gave it a final polish after the cut. I really rate Turtle wax for this type of application (post-compound). It just seems to take so well! Thanks for watching, guys!
T cut final glaze or meguires ceramic brilliant
It was so much fun to watch the pimping of the old Focus and it really does look almost brand new now.
But one thing seems to be wrong, the steering wheel is on the wrong side! Hehe, just kidding 😁
When you go abroad, cars like this are the norm. This would actually be classified relatively new. In the UK, it seems cars 3-5 years old are past it and replacement is needed.
Hi John looking smart after the detail. How long have you had the new paint hardening before you started the polishing proces?
The clear had probably 8 or 9 days to harden prior to this stage
Great, thank you. You hear so many different things about the hardening time. But who better to ask than the man who sprays and polishes
It's looking good
Pre sale detail is what i do takes time but can sell a car on the first viewing if done correctly of course like yourself 💎
An FM-Transmitter would be nice :)
Thats some work great little car
Gorgeous Shepherd
Thank you! He’s an absolute gem, isn’t he!😍
That is a good car to take to classic car meets,it will be collectible in a few years,look at the price of escorts.
I’d love to keep it wrapped for a few years and reap the benefits in a few years, but alas, it has to go soon to make room for another candidate so someone else will benefit from the inevitable price hikes in a few years!
@@JohnnyGetsCash Its a shame we can't keep all the ones we like or are worth keeping. This will be the second one that were keepers.
My consolation is that someone will be getting a genuinely lovely example that will [hopefully] show them a solid return on investment!
Not that it matters but power steering could of done of a top up. Also fresh screen wash is a must 😊
The screen wash will get refreshed ahead of MOT (happening in an episode soon). Re the power steering, I hadn’t even considered that but it’s a worthy point, thank you!
Good job but I think you need to invest in a better compound, it's very dusty! Alot better options out there. I'd look at zvizzer personally.
Also the final polishing stage, you mean waxing or a sealant
Looks great
I'm sure a invisible repair man can get that seat sorted for not a lot and maybe a new steering wheel then it would be spot on
It looks fantastic, actually. Can you find new seats at a breakers yard?
I could certainly invest some time trying to find replacement seats and a mint condition steering wheel. Initially I said I wouldn’t do that but this thing has come up so well, I’d be lying if said I wasn’t tempted!
Absolutely amazing :)
Quick one, What is that detailer you used with the small head? Looked at the links and not sure what one it is haha
Looking forward to the next video :)
This is the one: amzn.to/3KYOemT
It’s an absolutely fantastic tool to have!
Great thanks, added to my list to buy later when I can :)
Hello from México
Hello!
Fantastic job you did on this Focus. Will you finish it off with an underseal protection below?
There’s a limit to how much you can spend on a car as low value as this, and make a profit
In fairness it’s so original underneath it’d be a shame to cover it. I’d rather sell it uncovered so the buyer can see how good , original and genuine it is and then if they chose to cover it with extra protection they can 👍
Give the steering wheel a brushing of boot polish and buff it off… it looks leather anyways so if it is it’ll sort it.
Very nice
Fantastic job, Subscribed, great car, shame it would cost me £12.50 a day to drive it inside the M25😢
It’s ULEZ compliant so no fee to pay! Thanks for watching
Hi mate. Love the channel. Can you tell me which mini polisher you use/ recommend. Cheers, Chris.
Hi Chris, thanks for watching! The mini polisher is from SPTA - amzn.to/3PgzuAY 👍
@@JohnnyGetsCash Nice one. Thanks for the quick reply & keep up the good work mate 👍
New owner mist by happy. I hope engine and breaks are okay
😂
Engines had a full service including new timing belt and water pump. Breaks are perfect with recent new discs and pads up front 👍
Great video are you doing anything to the steering wheel?
I hadn’t planned to sort the wheel or the seat burn but based on the reaction of the viewers I’m starting to think I’m going to have to!
Honestly i would like to see a how to guide! Detailing what are you doing ( 5minute fix type of video you did)
This is something I could make however I’ll be the first to admit I’m by no means a professional detailer, just a trader with an obsessive eye for the small details!
@@JohnnyGetsCash Pretty sure even if you do make mistakes someone in the comments will mention it and we can all learn from it.
Where do you get your music from? Would love it if you posted the playlist so I can cue them up on Amazon music whilst driving!
Thank you, thats a real compliment! All of my music is sourced from 'EpidemicSound'- i'm not sure if it is available elsewhere like Amazon music though!
Where do you get the slip-on work boots?
When my son is 17 I'm buying a car from you for his first car!
I’m surprised your worried about number plate caps , when the steering wheel is in terrible shape and 2 huge burns in drivers seat 😮
Well, as addressed in previous episodes, I hadn’t planned to change any major components (as this is a cheapie), but now that the car has come up so well I’m now somewhat tempted to change these items for immaculate pieces and complete the puzzle properly 👍
Sensational job but a shame the lower drivers seat lets it down from a driver burning the seat.
I’m staring to think that I may have to address that based on the audience reaction! So much for my quick cheapie flip 😂
I don’t think u have enough coolant in that tank buddy 😂
Hey, what s the little machine polisher that you use?
That’s a detail polisher - great for edges near plastics & trims or smaller areas such as door frames and bumper tops 👍
@@JohnnyGetsCash sorry, i meant the brand 😶
Oh sure, it’s a SPTA unit: amzn.to/44swCqj
@@JohnnyGetsCash thanks a lot, you're the best!
Great effort on keeping this old car on the road for a few more years. If only more people would do this, it would benefit the planet I'd say.
Well done mate. But Johnny, for the love of God, please do something about the cringe-inducing 'music' (if you can even call it that)...
It’s a really tough one with music as it’s literally impossible to please everyone! I try to choose the most mass-appeal stuff I can but obviously it’s not going to hit the mark for everyone! The majority of the footage in my videos is Timelapse stuff (with no audio track) due to the nature of the lengthy processes being undertaken, so I need to add something over the top. I will continue to try and improve this aspect of my videos though 👍
@@JohnnyGetsCash No worries. You put a lot of effort in making these videos and it's only meant as a positive criticism.
Maybe I'm too old and grumpy, but I hope you'll choose something for old dudes next time. Cheers.
I appreciate the constructive comments, thanks for watching!
Where you get a focus so cheap?let me have one
Can you share what dog toy that is you offered to your dog in the beginning?
Sure, it’s one of these super tough toys for bigger dogs: amzn.to/3qSfNr9
And it's ULEZ compliant...
Great video, how much?
How much will it be for sale at? Right now I’m not totally sure. I have a few more things to do to make this ready for sale (I’m a bit of a perfectionist), but I will be releasing a video soon covering everything right before it is offered to the market 👍
What would that cost to do that work
