This must be the best series of videos regarding the restoration of a modern prestige car I have yet seen on TH-cam. Great stuff. Regards from England.
You’re a man after my own heart.... not afraid to tackle most any project and see it through, low budget ooohh yeah, no other way. It goes to show that with some persistence, the right knowledge, and patience you can produce a high quality product. I’m impressed with your trouble shooting of the Bentley electrical system.... awesome!
You did a perfect job on repairing the front bumper. I didn’t know all the stages and mixing the products.Then there is your time. You know what you’re doing. You can’t rush jobs like that. I would pay you $. X 3 Well worth it. Can’t wait for you to install it.
piano piece is so delightful pair with the paint job. that is some real good body work. I hope your hard work will pay off in a big way. good work James.
Little tip, I've done a ton of soldering gun bumper welding, removing the paint around the cracks helped a lot! It doesn't blend well when melted into the bumper.. and tends to crack easily. Good luck next time
Love you videos. Understatement of the year, "Looks Better the it did before" HAHAHAH Please post the music you are playing in the description as well :)
It was very nice viewing all your videos regarding the repair of a Bentley. You keep the job and filming nice and simple. Great job - I hope the car serves you well now. Greetings from Slovenia 🇸🇮.
Lol I love this guy, working on a Quintessential British car in the USA on a limited budget, awesome mechanical knowledge, I’d love to buy him a beer some day!!!
Your videos inspire me with my '15 S63 AMG :) My income changed drastically, so now I need to work on my Mercedes for cheap. I need a similar repair to this from rebar in a parking block tearing into my front piece.
The paintwork looks amazing. The Bentley is a beautiful car, fortunately there’s not too much Volkswagen D.N.A. in this model compared to the new ones, where there’s a lot of dipping in the parts bin.
Bentleys looking great , you are very methodical and it shows ..painting is all in the prep and you certainly prep well..looking foward to the install .take care 👍
The bumper looks good! I didn't see any waves in it or anything when you panned the camera across it. Good job! I still have to catch up on the earlier vids to see how you finally got rid of the fuel and suspension issues.
Now that you got the name you got to get the game son so you need to get yourself a Breitling Bentley Edition wristwatch to show everyone you truly are a HIGH ROLLER!
0:25 We did "see" you playing the violin, however the music we heard was a recording of violin and piano played by two other people. You can't fool us, 4 Lane, unless you plan to run for Governor, in which case we would expect you to tell us you secretly play all the instruments in the orchestra, while being a super hero as you drive your Bentleymobile around to rescue helpless damsels in distress.
I expect Bentley Motors would not allow any of its cars to leave its factory in Goodwood with any mismatch in paint colour on the body. Plasticiser in the base or clear coats. That would be unthinkable for what is effectively a bespoke car manufacturer.
trying to email you back but the computer is stupid. Start with the 80s and 90s model Rolls Royces and Bentleys. CHEAP and GM parts. Aside from that they are everywhere. craigslist too. The phantom and ghost are hard to get. Spurs spirits and Corniches are not so bad.
Instead of using black spray to highlight the imperfections why not use a very bright light when it's dusk from the side that will highlight any even the tiniest imperfections save you messing around with black paint
The guide coat is the way to go. It shows you everything. You could do the light method but you stand a chance of missing something. Plus the guide coat lets you know when to stop sanding so you dont sand thru the primer.
I only use it for primer. They are great for that. You have to take them apart, clean them, and reseal them for them to work good. I spray paint with a DeVillbiss gfg670.
There ya go. I use an old MAC (same as an Astro) for primer which is not much better (if at all) which I managed to get so the fan is even. I use a SATA NR-95 or an Iwata W-101 for base and a W-400 or a the SATA NR-95 for clear.

The music is relaxing. The Bentley is going to look great when your done.
That Nevada plate is just perfect. Literally perfect. Dig it.
Really enjoying this project. The music is refreshing and ‘adult’. A real point of difference. Us Aussies love classical music
Glad you enjoyed it

The masking tape on the paint can for pouring without dripping. Now that's the best tip I've seen this year.
Now I'll definitely subscribe 😉
Great job! Having the equipment & place to do all of this makes all the difference.
Classical music, rat-rods and a Bentley.... _very talented_ ... new sub!
Love you videos. Understatement of the year, "Looks Better the it did before" HAHAHAH Please post the music you are playing in the description as well :)
You sir are a class act. I painted cars for years and can vouch for the fact that you know what you are doing. Love the music too.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Love the piano music. Great painting too.
Absolutely wonderful music to go with the work progress! I found watching this so very relaxing and enjoyable. Thank you!
I am total idiot in car restoration. But watching several TH-cam channels. This guy I like.
It was very nice viewing all your videos regarding the repair of a Bentley. You keep the job and filming nice and simple. Great job - I hope the car serves you well now. Greetings from Slovenia 🇸🇮.

Dude, you're a gravel genius! Semper fi
Good job, shows you don't need million dollar tools to get a good finish. Thanks

Thanks for posting it. Always enjoy the plethora of knowledge I acquire just from simply tagging along.
Man I wish that I was working with you. I just love you craftsmanship and the hard work you put into all the work you do . Peace
Have been following the progress of your Bentley. Great work so far. Will be great to see bumper fitted.
Good job! 3M makes a kit with everything needed to do professional repairs on a plastic bumper cover. There also videos showing each step.
Nice work sir!! Great outcome!! You know your stuff!!!
What a guy taking on a none running Bentley ! 🤪
10 out of 10 let's have some more of this 👍
Thanks for posting this video! I've been wondering how this was progressing. You are truly a credit to the #RightToRepair cause.
Really impressive work..slow and easy.
looking great sir pro job i used to work in a body shop dust coat a must for high spots dont forget to wear mask rubbing down
The paintwork looks amazing. The Bentley is a beautiful car, fortunately there’s not too much Volkswagen D.N.A. in this model compared to the new ones, where there’s a lot of dipping in the parts bin.
Amazing work. You are a true master. I kinda want to ship my 1998 Range Rover to you from the UK for a full restoration!
Bentleys looking great , you are very methodical and it shows ..painting is all in the prep and you certainly prep well..looking foward to the install .take care 👍
This is awesome, a "simple" man fixing a flying spur himself to drive
The bumper looks good! I didn't see any waves in it or anything when you panned the camera across it. Good job! I still have to catch up on the earlier vids to see how you finally got rid of the fuel and suspension issues.
Thank you. Check them out to see were it has came from.

I was playing the violin. I was playing on top of the track
Impressive work!
Thank you
That's a fine job - this car is really coming out nice. Will it be ready for the Cruise In?
Thank you. I could have it ready but there is a 90% chance of rain so I probably wont make the drive.
Nice work

Yes I still have it. I have a new video coming soon.
Dude, excellent work !!!
Thank you
Very nice work!
Thank you
Good job Sir.
Thank you
Did you ever manage to repair where the bodywork had deep scratches I imagine getting the correct colour is a challenge
Yes, take a look at my videos. I did a full video on the repair.
great videos ,Stu ere in the UK
You do great work on the car and the violin, you are very talented.....
Nice work👍
Good content subscribed
I expect Bentley Motors would not allow any of its cars to leave its factory in Goodwood with any mismatch in paint colour on the body. Plasticiser in the base or clear coats. That would be unthinkable for what is effectively a bespoke car manufacturer.
Ok you have convinced me ,how little will you charge to fix up my old work van......
Good music suits Bentleys.
Glad you liked the music
great job man
Thank you
Mixing paint looks a bit like, modern day alcyhmy. 😊🙋🏻♂️🇩🇰
What was the winning bid on the car at auction?
You'll have to wait and see
$12.,200
Did you do the headliner??
That piano music was off the hook, please list the recording!!!!!! Thanks.
All the music is free from TH-cam Audio Library.

Bentley painter would turn over in his grave watching a shade tree mechanic painting his car. LMAO
Good
I keep watching this series to cringe at a yank destroying a Bentley
Those cheap Hazard Fraught guns aint worth a damn uness you take em apart and de-burr the innards so ya need to get yourself a better gun.
