2005 Honda Civic driver side collision repair and factory sunroof installation time lapse

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มี.ค. 2017
- This Civic was hit in the side by another vehicle. Since the roof was buckled in multiple locations and the skin needed to be replaced to avoid excessive amounts of filler. I used a roof skin with a sunroof, and added the wiring, sunroof assembly, switch, drain tubes and head liner from another car with a sunroof.

It's absolutely amazing what mankind can do! As a welder, I can truly appreciate the sheer craftsmanship of this repair, looks great!
Thanks!
I have never been impressed with the standard body repair tech's, until I saw your work. You are a true craftsman.
Thank you.
I concur...Did you know the direct translation of art is "making things fit well together"?...
My car recently got crashed in a similar fashion, and this gave me endless hope. Absolutely awe inspiring; fantastic job! 💪💯
How much was it? Mine was about the same
How much did your insurance pay was it a total lost?
mine too, but the bodyshop quoted me 5500, LOL.
I recently got into an accident with my 2017 nissan altima and Ive been really stressed out ab it but this gave me a huge amount of reassurance. Thank you.
Nice job on the Civic, no insurance company would have paid to fix the car but you made the car better than new even with donor parts.
Man, that is freakin' Incredible!
I've never seen anyone repair a vehicle with that much damage before. And definitely haven't seen it done correctly like this. To look(and I'm sure drive) like the day it rolled off the assembly line. You have some mad skills! I hope you turn a decent profit on this. You definitely earned it!
Thanks, as good as new is the goal every time. I enjoy the work so it is easy to focus on the quality. Thanks for the support!
@@vehcor can this vehicle handle track use after cutting it up and welding it together again?
A thorough job!. The fact that you took the roof off was very convincing. I am a believer!
Thanks
I must say that you are not only a great technician but also great as a person. It is a real pleasure watching your video as well as comments and replies.
Thanks, I enjoy what I do, so it is not about the money for me. As for the good person, I try to treat everyone how I want to be treated. I wish more people would learn this. Thanks for watching and the support!
Yet another example of your skills and professionalism.. Been wrenching for many years but I am truely jealous of your knowledge.
Thanks, it is all just practice and challenging yourself. Keep on wrenching!
Man I like the way you repair the vehicles. If i ever had another collision, i wish i could have a guy like you fixing my car. Man what you did to the pick-up truck, dissassambeling it, and reassmbeling it, man, it was awesome to watch!😊
Thanks, I always do it the right way or there is not point. Glad you enjoy them. Thanks for watching!
Fantastic. Just great. People who fix (or improve) things now are the new heroes.
Thanks!
Fantastic repair as always Scott 👍🏻🏴
Can't stop watching ur vids man. I do body work for a living. I have learned more from your videos. Than everyone i have ever worked for. Thank you.
Thanks, I'm glad to hear that. It is the support from people like you that keep me making videos! I have always done hard hits so even some bigger/experienced shops don't see jobs like I do. Hopefully, the newer narration videos help to understand what I am doing a little better. Thanks for watching!
SAME!!!
Awesome work . What is a ball park range of how much a repair like this would cost labor wise
I wish we had craftsmen like you where I live. Then I know my car would be fixed properly.
No corners were cut in filming or performing this repair. If the time is going to be taken to rebuild a vehicle like this, and the time should be taken to do it right. Nice job Vehcor.
We never cut corners on this channel. It is about doing the job and doing it properly. I'm glad you appreciate the effort, a lot of people think it was a waste to repair something this old and cheap but I did have fun and that is what it is about for me. Thanks for the support!
That Civic looks great! It may be over 10 years old, but it looks brand new and I'm sure whoever owns it next will enjoy that sunroof for decades to come. keep up the awesome work!
Your Welcome, thanks for whatching😅😅😅
The fact that is was from down south and not all rusted out like the ones up here is what made it sell really fast. I'll keep them coming!
Amazing the amount of skill & labor involved this video make you appreciate this kind of talent.
Just recently found your channel, time lapse is awesome
Car o Liner tech for fifteen years here man have to say excellent work, very high skill level, one does not learn these skills over night. great work
Thanks, I have used it for years and is my favorite of all the brands I have used. I wish the shop had a newer one but this thing just keeps working! Thanks for watching!
Love the accompanying tunes and damn that was a quick repair
The power of science in the world now a days, mechanics man they’re awesome 👏🏻
New subscriber from Trinidad & Tobago in the southern Caribbean. watched your videos for quite a while and would say that your commitment to quality workmanship on your repairs are truly remarkable. Keep up the great work you are doing and look forward to all your videos.
Glad to have you here! Thanks for your support!
A pristine by the book professional repair. First Class.👍
Thanks, a lot of people do not understand there is a right and wrong way to fix a car. Thanks for watching.
vehcor Your repairs and re builds are always worth watching because firstly you always do it correctly and secondly when I watch in detail how you do the repair (ie. pause the frames) it's as if you are repairing every car for your wife and kids to travel in safely.....leaving no stone un turned. That's what I love about your work sir. I live across the pond in Ireland. We could do with ppl like you over here!!
Actually, my family does end up in some of these and I drive them all, not that it makes a difference, I repair them all to the best of my ability. I don't just do this work to make money, I really do like it. I could certainly make more money by cutting corners and not worry about making things so perfect but then I don't see the point of doing the job. Some of the people out there doing incorrect repairs are not doing it intentionally, they just lack the training that would teach them the proper methods. Thanks for your support, best wishes from the US.
Once again. Perfect job sir!!
Thank you!
Damn vehcor! You’re a wizard!
Thanks, years of practice!
Wow that turned into a lot bigger job than i though at first glance! But wow the end result was amazing!
It was easier than it looked. Thanks for watching.
The repair it self is over the top, but add in the sunroof addition,I'm guessing there are very few people in this industry who can pull this off,Nice work once again.
I have done a few factory sunroof installs. When you know what is needed, it is not too bad. People do not realize the amount of work, it is not like the aftermarket, cut a hole and connect some wires. A lot of that work overlapped with repairing the collision damage on this one. Thanks for watching.
Very nice, where most see trash, your skill shows treasure, common folk would never know this vehicle had sustained such an impact
Thanks, the goal is to make it like new again!
This just gave me hope because so far two guys told me my car is most likely totaled because it looks like the frame is bent. I can’t wait to get it inspected tomorrow. If you were close by I would definitely bring my car to you for inspection and repair of my front door and bumper. A car ran into m on the freeway yesterday on wet ground.
Excellent job
Thanks!
Impressive work.
Thank you.
You are professional by doing this job 👍
Thanks

Great work 👍
Thanks, I try!
Well the video is awesome and the music fits right along in with it
gave it thumbs up
I can assure you that the music fitting is just a coincidence.lol That was my number one complaint so now I narrate the newer videos. Thanks for watching, hopefully you like the narration as well.
Awesome job lots of skill
Thanks!
Per usual fantastic work sir
doczarco check out my channel of my rebuild :)
Thanks! I dismantled the whole car and NO candy! :(
vehcor how much would it cost on 2003 model Mk4 Golf Gt Tdi to repair B pillar damage to driver side from collision?
Respect. Nice job!
Thanks!
Jamming to the music while watching the repair process 😁
It is just music from the youtube provided selection, something is better than watching in silence, I guess.
Great job
Thank you
Great job 🙋♂️👍👍👍👍👍👍
I did 4 rear clips one year (replace the back half of the car). I got them all to the paint shop in 40hrs or less!! The PITA part was the all interior, exhaust, plumbing and wiring. The metalwork was easy and no measuring/pulling because the damaged stuff just got lopped off.
Wow!! True body repair magic !!!
Thanks!
Espectacular!! Saludos de argentina
Gracias, mis mejores deseos de los Estados Unidos.
vehcor en esas mismas condiciones se encuentra mi auto, y es tambien un civic 2003
you are a master of your trade
Thanks, lots of practice!
I could feel my brain growing just watching this dude go at it...
This was a big job but actually pretty simple. I like the older cars that were made to be repaired.
@@vehcor Indeed, however wouldn't that car be more worth for the parts than being repaired and sold as salvage? No question your work was great, just wanted to learn the economics.
Amazing!
I just got rear ended the other day man, but maybe my truck does have the chance to live after watching you work your magic. hopefully this local body shop is as good...
Thanks, I hope your truck turns out perfect!
Auto Body Repair done the right way no Mickey Mouse and no cutting corners or using cheap parts just to save money not this guy 100% honest hard to find these days !
Awesome 👏🏼
Wow man you're amazing!
Thanks, I've had a lot of practice!
Well damn. He makes it look so easy!
Always questioned those rebuilds. Those who do it right….
And I’m sure there’s people that take short cuts
Well done
Thank you
I need this repairman in my life now lol !!
I give you kudos.you have learned an artform.i wish i could just watch you work in real life and take notes.i shouldnt have gone into auto repair..
Thanks, I have been doing it a long time and really enjoy what I do. That was not always the case though, I did work at a shop that made me hate my job and the work. Sometimes, the people around you make the difference, not the industry. I wish I had my own shop, I would be glad to teach what I know. People eager to learn end up making the best employees regardless of skill level.
Man. You're good.
Thanks, years of practice and training.
Good work,
Thank you
Great job.
Thanks
Well done keep it up
Thanks and yes sir, Mr. Bond!
Many thanks extremely beneficial. Will certainly share content with my good friends.
Thank you! Thanks for watching.
Hi Matt. I have a friend in Brazil who recovered a Kia Sportage that overturned. You may like this. Please search for Paulão Funileiro Sportage. A 10 video detailed series with subtitles in English. Greetings from Brazil.
Good job!
Thanks
Excelente trabajo
Thanks
Very good videos. Subscribed to your channel!
Thanks, glad to have you here!
I enjoy watching your videos, really interesting stuff. I am a service technician at an Infiniti dealership and strictly work on mechanical repairs...No body shop at the dealer. I would love to venture off into the paint and body world. Plus it's an excuse to buy more tools and get a bigger garage. Thanks for the cideos
I'm a mechanic by day also. I grew up in a bodyshop doing their mechanical work so I learned everything. The bodyshop is a different world. Mechanical work is like science class, bodywork is kind of like art class. You may want to start small, you may find it interesting but tedious and annoying. That is why I have guys do all the prep, paint and filler. I can do it all if I have too but I hate every second of it! You can never have too many tools or a big enough garage!

good work
Thanks!
Amazing work! Why can’t people appreciate this work for the art and mastery that it is? I’ve noticed that anything automotive related is fraught with negative comments. I think it’s to compensate for inadequacies. Keep posting more like these, and fuck the trolls.
Well said! Some people are just lazy and only motivated by money. They have a hard time understanding how a person could possibly like to work and not be concerned with "how much am I getting for this". I do enjoy the trolls. I have never been the type to care what anyone thinks. I do what I want, if you like it great, I appreciate the support. If you don't like it and chose to troll, I give them the attention they so desire at the same time making them look foolish. Most are not smart enough to catch it but the other viewers find humor in it. Thanks for the support, I'll keep posting!
@@vehcor curious how much the cost for doing this repair? For a Toyota 2015?
good job man
Thanks!
Keep it up.Good luck
Will do, thanks!
Awesome
Thank you!
Mad talent
Nice job man.. I'd been following Arthur Tussik channel when yours popped up in my recommendation list..
Thanks! I always wonder how people find me, thanks for the info! This is one of my older videos, check out my newer ones for a different style without the lame music, just my lame narration. LOL

This video shows the proper repair.
Yes, I always do it the correct way. No corners are cut on this channel, even on the cheap cars. Thanks for watching!
Good work mate,not an easy job.
Thanks, it was not too bad. I was able to put every piece in without sectioning, with the exception of the uniside, which made it a lot simpler.
Wow grate restore car I am so happy .👌👌👌👌👌
Thanks, I try.
wow........you are just awesome......I call that real skill@@!!!!
Thanks!
Excelente.
Thank you!
I love your channel. How are you not getting millions of views when that crazy Chris fix does. He’s so annoying. . I could watch your stuff all day.
This guy is good
Thanks, years of practice!
I love the work you do, I think it's amazing to see. Just sayin'!!!
Wow holy shit great job
Thanks!
Excellent! Now do mine.
gravy job with bisquit wheels !!!
Most people would not call this a gravy job.
some of the fine work i have seen...hope india had fine workers like you...
Thanks, there are good techs everywhere. The trick is to find them.
thank you for the comment. i hope people stay positive.
2003-2005 civics are the best civics imo
Sooo nice video
Thanks

Muito bom from Brasil
Obrigado e saudações dos EUA
👍🏻💪🏻Honda civic es
This was 6 years ago I'm in Awe! If my insurance cannot fix mine, which a fraction of what has happened to this Honda then I will send them this video! I mean WOW!!
Been refinishing all my life and mate, all I can say is FUCKYDOOYEAH! I can't see how the repair would have made economic sense, but done it you have. Well done!!!
Thanks, I had all the parts and scored the car cheap so it was a good deal. It looked like a lot of work but really wasn't too bad. Thanks for watching!
I'm shocked.. accident repair cars are a deal breaker for me. but I would feel confident buying that civic from you
If the repair is done correctly, it should not be a deal breaker. Most cars on the road today have been in some sort of accident and most people never know. I have seen some horrific repairs that constitute being a deal breaker and these are the ones car manufactures exploit and spend millions in advertising to convince buyers that new cars are better! Thanks for watching!

I think that's pretty rad you gave them a sunroof. Life gave them lemons and you made lemonade. Pretty cool.
Good
Thank you.
Apart from the "music" that was fantastic. I have to go back and watch it again to guesstimate the hours actually spent in the vehicle.
Q. What's the difference between a brand new vehicle and one Scott has repaired?
A. Scott's vehicle is the better of the two. 👍
Good work. I'm curious though, maybe anyone can offer insight, but would a repair job like this in a professional body shop normally take 2 and a half months or was this a project on the side?
I guess my question is if I was replacing a door myself and lets say much lighter crash to only one rear door how hard would it be to repair myself my main concern was getting a new door bracket but now I see how easily the alignment can be off for the door to even fit properly
IT happen to me in a Nissan laurel 2.4 end up hitting a lamp post coming back on a bank holiday but main damage was the drivers side door driver-side passenger and I should of kept it and get it repaired but I didn't
excellent trabajo . Quiero ver un trabajo en una cherokee parte trasera
Thanks, If a Cherokee comes along, I'll be sure to make a video.
#awsm!!!!!
Looks absolutely brilliant is the car structurally the same as it left the factory would it handle another side impact
Thanks, yes, it will take the next crash the exact same way as the first. All the pieces were put in in the factory locations with the exception of the outer panel which is not structural and can be sectioned in, just about anywhere. If it were all just straightened and painted, the answer would be "no, it will not be the same". That is the difference between a proper repair and improper repair. Thanks for watching.
Hi!!! Please repair my Civic! Hahaha u're amazing!
Thanks! I'm a little backed up with work right now! lol
I recently had an accident in my 2009 Corolla the right fender,hood and the front glass shield shattered,where are you located if you don't mine , or how can I contact you? Thanks for the video 👌excellent job 🎩s off to you Sir.
