  • Sixth instalment in restoring my 1970 Morris Minor. Installing the upper sill and boxing panel - and finding out I've made a mistake...

    I am really enjoying your video's you have the perfect balance between commentary, time lapse and the real nitty gritty. Part 6 is now showing nice progress as new panels are fitted. The rust you uncovered during the earlier episodes would have destroyed me! I look forward to seeing further progress.

      Thanks! It's tricky to decide what to cut out, or speed up. I'd rather err on the side of caution - I used to hate car restoration shows on TV which would show them taking off a few bolts, then a few shots later 3 months of interesting work had passed and it's done!
      One good thing about TH-cam is you can see the nitty gritty hours of stuff actually goes into projects like this. It's not for everyone, but it doesn't have to be.

    Jigsaws must be a doddle for you!
    Your patience and spatial thinking is amazing.

      Probably less than 10mm out if I did a jigsaw... should have done more dry-fits before welding it!

    Well done a very high standard for a beginner. Don’t worry about the mistakes we all do it - whilst welding I once set fire to myself!
    You learn from it, I like you PPE keep it up - don’t remove guards learn to work around it!
    a tip for removing spot welds that are invisible use a grinder - the welds spots glow red.
    Use a DA sander with a 36 grit discs to rough up prior to paint - and use phosphoric acid to neutralise rust in older panels - I make my own!
    Keep on and keep battling- you are doing very well indeed.

    TEK screws are cheap and really useful for holding multiple panels in place to check panel fit before doing any substantive welding. Keep up the good work 😊

      Yes! I've had them recommend to be before and seen them used - I really should get some. So far, I've managed okay dry fitting with lots of clamps - I just didn't do enough of it!

    I’ve always thought a minor traveller would look great with aluminium instead of wood at the back. Every part that would be wood being made out of aluminium, it would be better structurally and easily polished. It wouldn’t rot.
