    Which job was your favourite this week? Paint on the mini, bootlid repair on the Subaru or Ford tractor door save?

    The sanding tempo syncing with the music at 9:12 was lovely. Great work all round

    I was so impressed with your repair patches for the Scooby boot lid. I would never have stood a chance!

    Brilliant content, superb channel. I struggle to understand the seeming reluctance to click the like button. I mean, for what little effort it would take? incredible.

    I love your work Lewis. You have more skill in your one finger, than I have in my entire body. And so calm. Amazing. Thank you for sharing !!

    Another great showcase for your skill and hard work. I understand that there's a shortage of youngsters coming forward to take up apprenticeships in bodywork/painting/repair etc, contributing to the high rates of insurance write-offs. Perhaps if a few more could see these videos they would appreciate what a rewarding career it could be. Thanks again guys.

    Much enjoyed, a craftsman and an artist at work, and one who takes such pleasure in his skill. Even better you help secure such skills for the future. I have spent the past 15 months working around an engineering company and now better appreciate the skill and understanding you need to sculpture and create with steel. More of these if you can, they such a pleasure to watch.

    Nice work, unsurprisingly.
    It’s unusual to see a Ford Super-Q door in such good condition! They rot like buggery and often warp out of shape.

    • @WhitelandRestorations
      @WhitelandRestorations  8 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Thanks for identifying for door, we don't really know our tractors 😂

      Sadly, tractors are one of the few things I have a little knowledge of. Look, I used to play with Britains farm toys and never grew out of it.
      The cab was used on lots of Ford tractors, not model specific. Have a google of ‘Ford Q-cab’ or ‘Ford Super-Q cab.’ That cab was quite a nice place to spend a long day working, even though with everything being blue it looked like somebody had murdered a Smurf and skinned them for the trim.

    Really enjoyed watching. Unfortunately, i didn't win the full paint restoration raffle so I'm looking forward to the videos on the car for the lucky winner. Is that coming soon?

    Awesome work. I always think that anyone who can do bodywork repairs to that standard has to have some natural talent. The mechanical side of things can be learnt much more easily. Full respect is due. Looking forward to the Yeti video. Ive always been intrigued by those vehicles.

  • @chris-molloy
    @chris-molloy 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Sanding, filler and paint standard routine maintenance for many early Minis and big trouble if needed anywhere near scuttle area. Overall a nice video of three totally different jobs all resulting in a properly executed and professional repair.

    Nice not having a matt finish on the bonnet & roof :)

    Damn fine repair on that superpoo Lewis nice job mate 👍 I’m a bit of a Geek and love everything Bigfoot and rubbish like that I was trying to convince my wife we needed a yeti but its not looking good she’s putting up more than an adequate fight so I guess were keeping the BMW then 😂😂

    A combination of craftmanship and pride in your work is always enjoyable to watch. I have a man up here in Sunderland who does a similar job, but works by himself, as he won't put his name to anything else. Needless to say, you have to book well in advance in order to get any remedial work done.

    Enjoy the vids. My car will be coming to you for paint in 2026. Bad news is it’s another E46! (Good news is it’s an Alpina) Sound went a bit mono in the ‘montage’ music section fyi.

    Is the 142 headlight surround hanging in the background NOS?
