    This video unfortunately took much longer to make than planned. I had a few huge setbacks and lost a bunch of time. The work you see in this video took around 6 weeks.
    If you would like to support my work more, you can join my Patreon at patreon.com/mymechanics
    To give you something back, I'm uploading daily vlogs out of the workshop along with longer, more detailled versions of the TH-cam videos.

    There are dozens, if not hundreds, of “restoration” channels on TH-cam. People who will lightly sand and repaint something, clean up and polish, or just expel as little effort as possible to make something less shitty.
    I have followed your channel for over half a decade now, I can say nobody does work as thoroughly and wonderfully as you. Your attention to detail, the amount of thought and care you put into your work, and the talent you possess result in the highest quality product that could’ve been made from the getgo, and it makes me yearn for a world where everything WAS that good to begin with.

    • @Waccoon
      @Waccoon 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +34

      Honestly, I think metallic brown is a seriously underrated color and wish some luxury cars still offered it. One of my cousins had a boat painted in brown flake, and he named it "Brown Sugar". I loved that thing. It didn't try to hide the fact it was a product of the 70's. 8)
      But, hey, as long as the Z isn't painted boring silver, I'll be happy with anything.

    I am blown away every time by your videos. I knew from the moment you announced the restoration of an entire car that it was destined to turn out flawless. You would not settle for less, and nothing made that more clear than re-cutting the painted threads and bluing the bolt studs.
    I hope people realize that they are only seeing the tip of the iceberg of the incredible amount of work you (and a few pros) put in. You see the primer going on, but don't see the setup and positioning, the masking, the suit-up and PPE, the moving the cameras around, the cleanup of the spray guns... all just to set up for paint. This thing will be museum-grade perfect when it is done.
    Take all the time you need to make it your way. It'll be perfect, and worth every second of wait.

    Absolutely incredible craftsmanship. There is no assessing how much this restoration would cost. It’s a masterpiece of love. I had a ‘72 Datsun 240z, that spent way too many winters in the rust belt of upstate NY. Finally when the engine and front suspension pulled away from the front sheet metal frame rails I decided to restore it. I disassembled the car down to the unibody, just as in this video. Then I started by cutting away the obvious really bad rust areas, and sand blasted the rest of the car to bare metal. After hours of sandblasting, there was nothing left of the car to self to.. . It made for easy disposal, as all I had to do was sweep up all the dust and throw it in the trash.. I parted out the salvageable stuff. The only thing good that came out of it was, I was doing all the work in my garage in Webster, NY in the winter…where even with a space heater, the garage was barely above freezing. And amazingly our first daughter was born 9 months after I started the restoration.
    Even living now in Southern California I thoroughly examine any used car I consider purchasing for rust. I’ve seen older Zs that spent their entire life in Southern California that had rust in the usual body spots. But, typically the unibody frame was not rotted. They were great cars, but an early example of a complete unibody that was made of inferior steel, and had no surface treatment in any of the hidden areas.
    This all partially explains my recent purchase of an all aluminum Jaguar XKR. Even that I had put up on a lift, and I checked all of the metal over thoroughly. I
    I’m looking forward to future episodes.

    Exceptional restoration work and the search for perfection down to the smallest detail is impressive.
    Congratulations, I rarely have work with this level of quality.
    More than restoration, it's art 🤩
    Really hats off to you, you've amazed us, keep it up, for us, the informed spectators.
    Thanks again for these videos that get to the point without frills and without blah blah

    The way he felt removing wrapping was like watching a kid on Christmas. It's also how I felt watching the video.

    You realise you could monetise a video of you sandblasting that car for 11hrs right?

      Yes. There is raindrops sound video for sleep, we need a sandblasting video.

    The level of attention to detail is superhuman. To take the time to apply primer and blue bolts in areas that will never see the light again speaks highly of your work ethic. Bravo!

      It's all for the rust protection.
