Hey everyone, thank for watching! I'm trying to keep these episodes coming every single week. This might mean that you'll start to see some of the problems I encounter during these restorations. Remember, I am a completely self-taught amateur. So when things go wrong, I have to learn how to fix them. This can be super time-consuming. So in this one, I left the problems in and will fix both the paint and the zinc plating in the next episode, If my new zinc plating kit arrives in time. So glad to see almost everyone is enjoying this series! Thanks for watching.
No youre doing a great job!!!! as a bmw driver and jeff will fix it all type of guy ( car, house, tube amplifiers, etc.) i can tell! There are just a few people that can do it all!!! engine paint and body work etc etc. so be proud! mistakes will happen, leave them in and we all learn!!! great!! looking forward to the next episode!!!!!
Love your content, Keep it up. Curiosity Stream brings me back to the days of Discovery Networks. Before the Writers Strike and the Horrible Rise of Reality TV.
Your work is mesmerizing. However premium a BMW is, it is a vehicle mass produced with cost reduction in mind. The immense restoration you put on each part, especially the anti-corrosion treatment, is something even the most prestigious, the most expensive car makers wouldn't even dare to do. You sir, are turning the E30 into a billion dollar car. Kudos.
Your attention to detail is epic and appreciated. Must say you seem to have a decently stocked up workshop with useful tools in your garage. Loving these videos.
Hey, Steve! What a great paint booth you have there!! I'm glad you keep the problem areas in--we all have to learn to deal with them and it's educational to see how you adjust or correct the problem areas. It's great that you can now upload more frequently. You do a great job. Take care, my friend.
These restorations are just plain awesome. Your videos have sparked an interest for cars in me. Even tho you acknowledge that you make mistakes, people learn from their mistakes, so do you. Keep up the glorious work!
Its pretty well known about people restoring cars from the ground up. But piece by piece? I think you may be the first person to go to this extent. Well done. This will probably be the cleanest car in existence. Keep up the good work.
Might have been mentioned by others, but an induction heater for stuck nuts and bolts is a lifesaver in the workshop. I work as a bus mechanic, and I don't know how what I would have done without one. You can get fairly cheap portable ones for smaller bolts, it would be perfect for your setup. Just a tip. Otherwise great work, I love to follow this series.
Awsome idea on painting the aluminum parts to keep them from the oxidation. Silver has always been a hard color fir myself also. Looking forward to more in the video series.
I can only applaud your dedication on this chief. I not really a car bloke, but this is so engrossing, little by little getting there for the beemer. I know your eye deep in projects, but if you ever get the chance, do a paint spraying 101 for all us gun noobs. I`m certain it woud go down well with the punters.
At 10:46 you were using the adjustables the wrong way. If you turned them around, the jaws would press together when force on the handle is applied adding more grip. Having the jaws going away from the pull opens them up.
So satisfying to watch. Using a lot of techniques to get the job done. If you start powdercoating you got it all. Keep posting and keep up the good work 💪👍🤙
Keep up the awesome work, most of my stuff is self taught as well best advise is to find people who have a passion for what your learning and offer some of your time to shops for work your even paying for as the learning experience is typically worth it :) Interesting you use a blasting pot with cabinet, i just use a pickup tube (venturi effect) in blasting cabinet or bag attached (small filter) will allow constant cycle (until your air compressor needs a rest) , Other option which in long run will benefit you heaps is vapour blasting cabinet (yours current cabinet can be modified easily and or use a water blaster for large items with pickup nozzle) - plenty of guides all over youtube etc and parts probably easily available :)
Just a little tip. When you are using a tool like that at 10:50 it will try to open the grips. Flip it around and it will try to close the grip when you are turning the bolt or the thing that you are trying to take out. :)
I'd highly suggest upgrading the accessory bracket mounting bolts to grade 9.9 or higher. The alternator bracket bolt that sits behind the crankshaft pulley in particular. Prone to breaking, and requires a lot of disassembly to replace.
I was honestly not convinced when you said you going to paint some aluminium parts, however the silver paint with clear looks amazing! + it will be much easier to maintain. After seeing you shot blasting rest of the parts I am still a bit confused why you haven't done that with rocker cover... I guess you have your own reasons... waiting for the time all will come together.
I wonder how much someone will have to offer you for you to let go of it when you're done. Great work as usual. No, I'm not making an offer, just wondering.
For dry acid it looked pretty wet to me, unless you used powdered acid to make it... but then it still wouldn't be dry. The parts are lookin' great man. Keep up the good work.
Watching your videos for a long time now, never responded so here is one 👌🏻 Fun to watch and I learn a lot from them. I was wondering how you manage to clean your spray painting pistol after use? Also special stuf or any other special trick. Keep up the good work 👌🏻
You can polish the aluminum and then paint it with clear laquer and then it will last polished way longer. I've left polished bolt in water for 3 days and it was like when I put it in
I am fascinated by all your processes (Only a few relate to wok I have tried myself) but I really love the finishing and paintwork. It does seem t be a specific area for you. How is the new air filtration system working. It was quite a big build. What led to your move to your new location? I was deeply impressed by the courage it takes to move to a new country and build something from scratch. I live in England - but this is my third country and second language. So I appreciate some of the issues.
Veryyy nice work . You made curious to know more about zin plating and yellow passivation. Please do you have any other episode where you explain it and who supply it please ?
Most of this video was shot in three stupidly long days, ending just TODAY! I honestly colored and lacquered those parts this morning haha. I must spend hours a week cleaning spray guns. It's a real task.
@@RestoreIt Thank you for sharing what you're doing with us. I don't have the resources to do much of it but enjoy learning in case I'm one day able. I like that you take things further than is necessary.
This is going to be such a nice car when it's done. That will be a proud moment. What do you plan to do with the interior? Is it going to need new upholstery and carpet lining etc?

Pls do keep em coming i really enjoy your vids, very pleasing and inspirational. Cheers
You are doing a might great job sir. So keep it coming :)
You never fail to surprise me bro keep going!
quartz paints should really sponsor him
I said this in the last episode, great marketing for them.
It could be
They really should. But why would they if he already promotes the brand and it costs them nothing?
Why can't I buy the paint in Germany... It's made in Germany :(
Agree

Big thank you, Lee. I'd defo sell it for a bill. Just saying!
Cars that cost Millions aren't made of steel, they don't rust
Your attention to detail is epic and appreciated.
Must say you seem to have a decently stocked up workshop with useful tools in your garage.
Loving these videos.
Thank you, Motheo!
Your attention to detail is incredible! And also inspiring - thank you for passively increasing the quality of my own e30 restoration!
Thanks for watching and commenting, dude. Good luck with the resto!
Exactly what i needed this friday. Just replaced a turbo. Bought snacks. Sushi. Going home to watch this =)
Sounds like an epic day Pascal, glad to be of service to you!
Keep it up. =) 🥰
The thing I love best about your video's is your honesty
Cheers, Richard!

Sand blasting looks like the most fun.
These restorations are just plain awesome. Your videos have sparked an interest for cars in me. Even tho you acknowledge that you make mistakes, people learn from their mistakes, so do you. Keep up the glorious work!
Thank you SpaceRouge!
Great video! So glad you plan to upload them weekly!
I'm going to try, it's hard work but will keep me going at a good pace. Thanks, Alan!

Really satisfying to see the restoration mate, looking forward to the next episode
Cheers Schnappi!
This takes me back to my numerous e30s 325 I’ve had. Great machines!
This is attention to detail at its finest.
I can only applaud your dedication on this chief. I not really a car bloke, but this is so engrossing, little by little getting there for the beemer.

Such attention to detail. This one will really stand out by the end of the build!
love the sandblaster. so satisfying..
So much Detail love like him, has no other gar guy. Love it.
Another great work Bro
Your attention to detail is too high. It's OVER 9000!! I enjoyed every second of it, keep it up!
I find this such a satisfying channel.
At 10:46 you were using the adjustables the wrong way. If you turned them around, the jaws would press together when force on the handle is applied adding more grip. Having the jaws going away from the pull opens them up.
Pipe wrench are similar and yeah you are right
Yeah, was about to comment that and this guy could have just tried to remove it with two nuts locked against each other
Hi, I'm from Brazil and I'm following your work
Great work
peace
Thanks, Matheus!
So satisfying to watch. Using a lot of techniques to get the job done. If you start powdercoating you got it all. Keep posting and keep up the good work 💪👍🤙
I was waiting for this 😀, thank you keep the restoration series going
Thanks for watching Ewal :)
Can't wait to see it all being put together again!
This is highly inspiring mate, great work!
What a perfectionist. A pleasure to watch.
Was litterally catching up on the series before work and then you upload this!!!??? Yessssss
Perfect timing :D Glad you're enjoying it.
Love how you care about the details~nice videos.
Really nice job man. That car is going to be a real beauty!!!
Saw the new video have been uploaded, tapped on play and liked it within the first second playing :-D
Thank you, dude.
Excellent restoration 👍 I like it
Again superb work, looking forward to you putting it back together,this will look awesome.
Keep up the good work.

Hey great video as always man
I am a total night owl and it drives my neighbors nuts because I am banging around in the garage at 2 am lol. Great video thx
Your doing a fantastic job . Keep up the good work
Impressive and meticulous as always.
Thanks for sharing.
Vans should sponsor your next video, those old skools have been through hell
Haha, I wouldn't say no.
Excellent work mate. Keep it up.
Man, that is some HUGE work you put in this car. Good luck and greetings from Ukraine!
Thanks for the great video. Congratulations on the new job. Amazing how you can make this work. Mitar
Dude I love your videos so much, great job.
Just a little tip. When you are using a tool like that at 10:50 it will try to open the grips. Flip it around and it will try to close the grip when you are turning the bolt or the thing that you are trying to take out. :)
Note to self: Time to get to work . . .NO WAIT! New video from Restore it! Work will have to wait😃
Haha sorry, TrapShooter!
All respect for your hands.
.
Waiting for you 👍👍
I'd highly suggest upgrading the accessory bracket mounting bolts to grade 9.9 or higher.
The alternator bracket bolt that sits behind the crankshaft pulley in particular.
Prone to breaking, and requires a lot of disassembly to replace.
Looking good!
I honestly don't know how you find any motivation to wet sand all the prime painted stuff, that would grind me to a halt!
I was honestly not convinced when you said you going to paint some aluminium parts, however the silver paint with clear looks amazing! + it will be much easier to maintain. After seeing you shot blasting rest of the parts I am still a bit confused why you haven't done that with rocker cover...

Very Nice!! glad to see the notification

Great job bro, looking good.
Qué maravilla!! Habéis hecho mi sueño realidad en uno de mis coches y motores preferidos!! Sois unos cracks! Enhorabuena!!
Yayayayaya got myself some mac n cheese, time to sit back and enjoy :3
TY FOR UPLOADING
Thank you for watching Frog!
For dry acid it looked pretty wet to me, unless you used powdered acid to make it... but then it still wouldn't be dry. The parts are lookin' great man. Keep up the good work.
Damn your attention to detail is breathtaking. I'd just buy all parts new.
I bet you that even this guy couldn’t restore your relationship
Haha! I definitely couldn't.
Awesome awesome totally freaking AWESOME!
Nice work!!
Thanks, Emanuel!
Restore It if you ever need something about BMW im a BMW Technician
Amazing job! I really love this content and will wait for a next episode. Greetings from Russia
¡¡Congratulations great Jobs !!! ¡Un abrazo desde Argentina !!!
I was literally just changing my cooleant on my motorcycle right now at 10:30PM and i know ow you feel
Firm handshakes my friend.
Thank you, dude.
Very Nice!
Watching your videos for a long time now, never responded so here is one 👌🏻
Fun to watch and I learn a lot from them.
I was wondering how you manage to clean your spray painting pistol after use? Also special stuf or any other special trick.
Keep up the good work 👌🏻
Well done, great job. Cheers man
Thanks, Sony!
@@RestoreIt good luck 🍀 to you

Nice work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video!
Great job, you really can't sell the car when it's done. Put in too much work! Very interested in Curiosity Stream too.
I know right. if someone offered me enough I probably would take it. Stupid not to. But yes, they actually have a really good service there.
Fantastic work!!!!
I am fascinated by all your processes (Only a few relate to wok I have tried myself) but I really love the finishing and paintwork. It does seem t be a specific area for you. How is the new air filtration system working. It was quite a big build.

The pipe wrench is meant to be used in the oposite direction, so as you turn it grabs the stud more and more tight, instead of the other way around!
This guy re-defines the term "full rebuild"
Save yourself a step, just dip the tap in the cutting fluid. Great work
You need to partner with vapor honing technologies and get one of their vapor cabinets!
Excelente trabajo, saludos de Argentina
My favorite movie from Will Fix is "I am legend" xD
Wow. Done with lots of patience. Your ventilation ducts not working?? I saw lots of fog like thing built-up in room.
Представляю как у тебя ремни на шкивах свестеть будут по краске)
Вроде как начинает попахивать маразмом! Особенно шпаклёвка и покраска алюминиевых деталей :)
Fine video sir 👌
Love this video
Have you considered investing in powder coat? That would be a better option especially on high wear parts like the pulleys.
Veryyy nice work . You made curious to know more about zin plating and yellow passivation. Please do you have any other episode where you explain it and who supply it please ?
I have a full how-to episode right here - th-cam.com/video/ZPpL-TLo9Go/w-d-xo.html
Great job. You seem to have come to this with a paintshop background. Did you ever think of powder coating instead of painting the metalwork?
Bravo pour toi super ton travaille et la vidéo bravo
Why do you fill all this stuff? Isnt it falling of or getting loose with the massive engine vibrations?
It's epoxy. It wouldn't come off any more than paint would.
@@F0XD1E Interesting, remembering this, thanks!
Wow man you're making this build better than factory! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for sharing 👌👌👌
I'm guessing that a twenty minute video is days in the making but for every time I see you spray, how long do you spend cleaning the gun?
Most of this video was shot in three stupidly long days, ending just TODAY! I honestly colored and lacquered those parts this morning haha. I must spend hours a week cleaning spray guns. It's a real task.
@@RestoreIt Thank you for sharing what you're doing with us. I don't have the resources to do much of it but enjoy learning in case I'm one day able. I like that you take things further than is necessary.

Santa paciencia!! Cuantas veces has limpiado la pistola de pintar durante del restauración? Trabajo fantástico!!!
i could Watch you sandblast ALL DAY ❤️
Perfect!
