    Simply amazing work that shows what can be done without needing $10K worth of tools. Thank you for the recap-I need to revisit some/most of the clips again. Between you, Fitzee and Greasy Fingers, I've learned a lot. Again thank you

      Glad the videos are useful, we enjoy coming up with solutions on a budget as much as sharing them :)

    My 1300 Junior has been parked in my warehouse for over 10 years. Your videos have inspired me to finally start the restoration project I had in mind when I bought it. Your methods make restoration look a lot less complicated. I can't wait to see the end result, best of luck.

      Thats great, it does look quick in the video but it takes a long time to line up the panels well, taking them on and off before welding them, still take your time, it's satisfying to see it get better with every stage

      This part took about 3 and half to 4 years of Saturdays working on it, prep for paint took us another year of Saturdays!

    Wow! 4 years, but the finish line is in sight. Can't wait to see the final product, but also going to miss watching you and your dad work metal magic :)

      @@raisingjunior6389 I'm seriously looking at a 1967 1750 Alpha Veloche. Scarry rust but seen worse. Runs drives stops. Decent shape. On the fence, am pretty decent with a wrench and been long time since I did any body work, but I guess it's like riding a bike! Wanting 16k quite a bit to me. Prices r crazy now but music going to stop. Will keep car if I fix up. And drive it

      Thanks for the interest, it's a bit difficult to say at this point as I haven't had a lot of time to make progress on the car this year. We did move on with sound deadening, wax protection, rear axle refurbishment and just started the wiring...still need enough content for a video

    Good morning, you certainly have made alot progress in a small work area. In episode 5 you used some type of temporary fastener to hold that sheet metal in place prior to welding. What brand and model are they and where did you get them? I have really enjoyed your series of videos on this project. Thank you and take care. Good luck.

    • @raisingjunior6389
      @raisingjunior6389  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks, they are called 'intergrips' not sure what brand makes them but I found a kit on ebay that consisted of 8 intergrips and 'Cleco' clamps, it's a fastener that looks like a temporary rivet with a spring
