- Part 2 on Richards L10A, making the front lower quarter, inner floorpan structures and adding more shape and detail to the floorpan I made previously so it accurately replicates the original. Unpicking all the rusty layers piece by piece and remaking them until it is all mock fitted, ready to remove, sandblast, epoxy and then I can start fitting the panels permanently layer by layer.

Thank you for bothering with all the filming and editing! The metal work itself would be more than enough for most of us! This series is way beyond the regular TH-cam 5min hack. I hope you recognize how much we, your viewers appreciate all your work.
Cheers from a Norwegian Mazda enthusiast
Thanks mate, that's the aim, give newcomer's the things I wish I knew when I started out to make the journey much easier with less frustration and guesswork when self learning. Hopefully you gain some tips/tricks
I think I am not the only one waiting eagerly for a new video of you!
I been a bit absent from the cosmos lately, been doing a few other cars in here haha.
@@notevn I just feared you were breaking up your reports on your amazing work!
I really am in awe of your patience, fabrication skill and technical knowledge of a car's engineering. I dabble myself, but as much as I try my panels are no where as near factory as yours. I can see you are satisfying your own set of standards , believe me no one can criticise any aspect of your workmanship or your work ethics. Greeting from the UK.
Thanks Tony, I'm never happy with my own work and forever striving for better, is why I will point out all flaws, leave in all mistakes,problems etc,as no doubt others will come across the same issues and wonder how to solve them.
The best structural floor repair I have ever seen .Thank you so much for sharing and explàining how you plan and make these panels.
Thanks for watching.
Props to you for resurrecting such a rare car
My head hurts thinking about the endless amount of hours you have poured it this
Awesome work and cant wait to see it driving some day
Thanks mate, one day, maybe 2050😅
Just one word, incredible. Some of the best fabrication skill you will ever see in my opinion.
Thanks mate, but I'm far from where I want to be, only getting started on my journey
I guess I will be saying this every video lol but as a aspiring fabricator myself your videos are sooo insane!! Your skill is ridicilously good!!! Im in awe of how many folds just the one floor panel has, how many drain holes, matching the bead design and getting it to fit spit on. I really wanna start using my bead roller more with the tipping wheel. Thanks for the inspiration bro!!
Thanks mate , the floor is quite intricate and a real PITA to replicate by hand being a pressed unit factory, that's it, rip in, the more hours spent the more familiar you'll be.
My dad had a saying, the devil takes a cold smith every day.
Watching your videos has made me realize what he really meant, you'd have to be mad to take on projects like theese.
The sheer scale of work is absolutely insane.. Props too ya, keep on being badass.
Haha I've never heard that saying before. Yep sure takes a big idiot to do this for a living 🤣
You Sir are an artist! Not everyone has the gift nor the tenacity to achieve this!😮
Thanks mate
Wow, no wonder they rusted so bad, with all the folds, seams,and layers. Thats a ton of work. Looks really good. Keep at it,,,,Izzy Strong,,,,
Thanks mate yeah big jobs to replicate pressed multi layer items
You Sir are a bloody wizard!
Cheers mate
Was watching Alex Steele try and make a lamp out of sheet metal. You make this stuff look a lot easier than what he was doing.
Sheet metal work is next level.
Sheet work is surprisingly complex and it's always the panels you think will be easy that smash you, and the ones you think will be hard that somehow you do easily.
Some very clever thinking and a lot of natural skill. Respect
Thanks mate, a strategical nightmare😅
incredible work as always
Cheers mate
Having a look at these three cars there sure looks to be a few build faults when it comes to water damage, if ever i am fortunate to buy 1 of these I will be paying incredibly close attention to the condition, even the best looking cars must be hiding build issues. Thanks for explaining the problem areas.😊
Terrible design, unfortunately car makers didn't know the problems it would create and that's why some cars rot out super fast compared to others.
Amazing stuff as always, I admire your commitment.
I think you're making incredible progress for the time frame so far.
Thanks mate in it for the long haul 😅and yeah the roughing panels out is the fast part, unpicking neatly, prepping, sealing/painting and then fitting is the time consuming part.
Just came across your channel. Such an awesome build. 👌
First time watching your video unreel technique your work is excellent so talented
Thanks mate, only just getting started and have a long long way to go
that is a massive undertaking,
Yeah just 1 would be big...3 is insanity 🤣
Well done youngster, this is just amazing, loved the video , it’s very refreshing to see your skills , everyday it gets better n better
Keep it up
Thanks mate, yep forever wanting to improve
Bloody incredible mate. Great work.
Thank you! Cheers!
unbelievable skills, makes my Barracuda on rottisserie looks very agricultural, best up my skills!
so inspiring
Thanks mate, aslong as it's being repaired that's all that matters, you'll be driving and enjoying it before these even have all their parts to complete them 😅
Smashed it as usual!
Cheers man
So grateful for these videos bro I actually have a 75' Cosmo that is pretty much rust free but my 77' RX-3 not so much haha- Great to see the whole thought process in detail-Cheers
Rust free 75 Cosmo? Did you hop in time machine and pluck it straight off production line? I had a 76 in 96, and it was rough.
Rust free like it comes with the rust for free? Like all the other rust free mazdas 😅 unheard of
Fantastic as always!
Thanks!
Brilliant work mate......
Thanks mate
nice work
Wow bro, your skill set is next level
Far from where I want to be mate.
Excellent job thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching
Impressive work.
Thanks
Always a treat to watch a NOTEVN cosmo episode. Since u mention the time spend on panels made, do you have a estimate of total time spent so far?
I do have them all written down in a book but dont recall off the top of my head of them individually 😅 I'll have to add it up.
your a smart lad for a young guy, I'm into fords but do like old Mazdas, what is something like the cosmo worth once restored. it's obviously worth fixing withal the work going into it.
I'm not too sure on their value, I haven't seen many series 1s (343 made) sell but I see the series 2 (1400 made) sell for over 100k all the time.
@notevn yea I thought they must be up around that price since a decent rx3 is up there
Do you have your own eta to get done by ? Or are working to a finish line ? Keep up the content , loving it 👌🏻
Hey mate , nah no rush on these things, corners are cut when a time frame is involved, at a guess the black one only has like a month on it, the green one is 3x the work and then my own personal one will take the longest as you don't get paid working on your own cars unfortunately 🤣
super
you know I thought I was dealing with ALOT of rust in my Triumph TR 3. Cars here in Alaska just rust away in no time but holy cow where did you find these cars the bottom of the ocean.
Haha yeah the green one and my one are easily the rustiest cars I've ever seen.
Beautiful work as usual. Have the pommies reached out to you for tips yet😅
I've been leaving comments on their videos about this guy working on 3 at once everytime they drop a video on theirs, LoL,
Typical Aussies stiring the pot 🤣, I've reached out to them and let them know I've made a tonne of tooling so if they get stuck and need something I can make it no fuss.
suoer arbeit
Saludos mí nombre es Marcelo, buen trabajo
Thanks Marcelo 👍
Fantastic work, are you gone to use a spot welder when you put it all together ?
Thanks mate, yep spot weld like factory where possible and plug weld where spots have already been drilled out.
The rust will never happen again, because the classic cars that we restore will (unfortunately?) never be driven like they were the first time!
Haha yeah that is true , on the other side of the coin I drive my cars harder than ever before once restored because they are meant to be enjoyed not a museum piece😅
I recon you will replace 80% of the outside panels when done.
I think so too. 2 of 3 will be completely remade externally.
Amazing. How long have you been doing this and how did you start? It looks daunting taking on such a big project?
A few years now, started at home and taught myself , this black car isn't even bad compared to things I've restored in the past (before posting to YT) the other cosmo is probably one of the rustiest cars I've ever seen, but it's only metal, all repairable with time.
What causes all the rust? I have never seen it to the extent on these 3 cars.
Just bad design, lots of multi layer overlapping metal and gaurd vents that let all the water enter and create a little swimming pool, that combined with salted roads/snow and you've got a timebomb.
Question:
If certain panels aren’t going to be seen why replicate exactly?
That's just how I am, if I'm going to replace something I like it being identical, it's too easy and no challenge to just make something close enough and fudge it to fit.
@@notevn - I love the work. The replication is epic and I enjoy the hard work and effort that you put in. I just had a thought that if there was a chance to make something stronger or less complex you could or may take that opportunity. However, there is art in the replication.
Oh yeah absolutely will not be remaking things the same way as factory for the other two, they will both be improved and they run a different floorpan so are already miles ahead in design to not contain water etc. But this car is complete and dead standard so it's only fair it gets the effort to remain looking factory.
F%*k you do nice work 👍
Thanks mate.
And people wonder why this stuff costs so much your work is amazing , I had a full time job which I worked 6 till 2 then went to my mate place and did a couple of hours there , I did a MG Midget for a lad it started out as a back panel at my mates place the car had 12 month MOT when he bought it , when I started fitting the rear panel I noticed loads of rot in the car obviously the seller had got a dodgy MOT on it , we worked out a deal I will not rip him off I will do one side front to back the see then work out a price but even then it's not going to be cheap , I did right side we sat down worked out how many hours got a rock bottom price of £800 for welding , mind you this was not you standard but did it to my best ability with tools in hand , no fancy benders no english wheel just a vice and normal panel beater tools , I got him to by lip sections it 3 5 and 7 inch to cover for no bender , I made the inner sill with them the floor and parts of the chassis , he hunted out good doors wings and various bolt on bits , patch panel quarters and repro outer sills and A posts .
He came in and nearly had a heart attack at the price this was the early 2000's , I said what is you hourly rate at work because this works out a £3 an hour which he OK but I refused to do any filler work on the car so my mate got his painter to do it (sorry Pat LOL) .
I must admit I loved lip section as it saves a lot of hassle I used it loads of time it's handy making door bottom both inner and outer 5 or 7 for outer and 3 inner .
I did a MG Midget for my mate the garage owner he took me to see it about 40 miles away it was a ex track car , I was hilarious we drove it home his wife took us down we drove back I the last 15 what a laugh they are , we got it back started pulling it to bit then realised it was a pig in a poke Oops my fault , I came in one day and he said come with me , we ended up at the salvage yard looking at a fully restored Midget right off front end smash , yep that's the one we can use all the bolt on parts think we only needed one wing and patch panel quarters and a few lip section plus the same as the other one , If had not done his I'm doubtful I would have done the other one .
I had a Mitsubishi Delica Japanese import I bought as a right off lite front end damage that thing was not undersealed from the factory I dont think they did that back then but a lot better now .
