    I do find that the most incredible talent that you have (amongst all the rest) is to create a 2D template of a 3D part in cardboard and then cut, shape, weld and create that perfect 3D part for the car. Long time viewer of Binky and the same quality of fabrication is obvious!

    Simply amazing Ryan. I just love some of the comments, people who have never tried to restore an old BMW or source new panels for them. If any of you guys read this, please take note, there are next to no new replacement panels available for these cars, and if there were, they would literally cost thousands of pounds. The car I am working on is a BMW 840Ci, 1998 model. It could really have done with a pair of rear quarter repair panels to fix the rust around the rear arches. A while ago these panels were still available from BMW Germany and were £1000 each! This is why we all make our own panels.

    Marathon job and a super effort, Ryan, Always a pleasure watching you work and resolve rust's innumerable traps and human bodges to add to the effort! Brilliant job and I would have somehow got the reassembly awfully out of sequence and hurled bits of lovingly prepared repair panels, all over the workshop to mix with the superlative swear words!

    It must be soooo satisfying to complete something like this sill reconstruction. There is a famous quote about character;
    “Character is the ability to finish a project once the enthusiasm has worn off”
    You have that in spades!

    brilliant seeing someone with expertise tackle such a complicated job and make it look simple. step by step, piece by piece, you take the car apart and i am gobsmacked at how the car is gone in that section, and then you step by step put it back together again. really brilliant. you seem to think in metal.

My 2 favourite current TH-cam series are this and the Tavarish P1 build. That's how I high regard this build 😲 Amazing stuff & it really looks like its coming along so can't wait for the next video.

  • @mverbaan3381
    @mverbaan3381 ปีที่แล้ว

    Although i am a really big fan of BMW's from that period i really wonder WHY they put multiple sheets of metal over each other. It will have to do with strength and easier production, not imagining /taking into account that these cars would last 3, 4 decades. But, to quote Brittan's Great Philosopher Jeremy Clarckson: what could possibly go wrong?!
    On the other hand: i just have to admire how they did to design such a complicated construction -what bodywork/ a car is- without the use of computers.
    I reckon you are glad that you looked further than the outer panel to discover the rust behind the outer sheetmetal: now you make shure that the bodywork is solid.
    Question: why don't you use some kind of spray-gun to 'plaster' the hard to reach gaps between the bodypanels like on 32:10 ?

    Incredibly impressive work and great skills. Could you explain why you choose this method of fabricating lots of small patches instead of replacing the whole sill or the entire panel? I'm thinking pattern parts are probably still available and, if so, would this not save a lot of time and labour cost involved?
