    I was worried when you were done with washing you wouldn't have any car left - most of the car's already rusted away...
    But seriously I love what you're trying to do, I would love to one day do the same. ❤🖤

    Well done for taking it on and saving it that's just how mine was it will be worth it in the end

    Its amazing what that mini has probably been through. Teenagers first time driving it, then it sat for many years, the original owner probably died, and then here you come along to make it your dream car!

    Just went to my first mini show yesterday , there was about 450-470 mini's at it in Portrush , Northern Ireland . 95% of all mini's there were restoration jobs like your Adam . How you have the patience to restore a mini from scratch is beyond me , but fair play to you and those helping you . Great video Adam , looking forward to part 2

    From my experience I will never rust convert ever again. Next time I’ll wire wheel it back to bare metal and if it makes a hole I’ll weld a new piece in. Thinking about rust keeps me up at night!

    • @writerNB
      @writerNB 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In principle, I agree... in this case, wire wheeling to bare metal would whittle the body shell down to no body shell :) ... I've restored 3 minis... And have an engineering background: Never seen one this badly damaged by rust. I got to watch part 2 (if they uploaded it)... Did they really get this thing back on the road?

    I think I'd want something a little better as a basis for racing, than that rust bucket. When I built my racing mini. I bought a MOT'd car on the road, no real welding needed.

    Hi Adam, im from Chile and im close to get a clásico mini and i would like to know what is that white liquid you put over the oxide areas

    • @AdamWhite
      @AdamWhite  8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi Francisco, we call it Kurust. It basically chemically changes rust into a hard stable material. I used it on the roof for example because although it was rusty its a none critical area with no holes. This will soon be sanded back and then primed in a video coming soon. Its one of the best inventions ever created for classic car restoration!

    • @frenchpete8537
      @frenchpete8537 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      KURUST is pants guys, scratch some off and you will see rust under it, it doesn't work. Use DEOX GEL from BILT HAMBER, it REMOVES rust.

      It looks like a hammerite rust killer

    • @AIHurrell
      @AIHurrell 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Im very late to reply to this, but its Hammerite Rust Converter, it converts rust to a stable metal. It's actually white to being with, turns blue when in contact with iron oxide. I'd recommend something like Bilt Hamber POR15 instead though.

    • @mancaveproductions00
      @mancaveproductions00 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That stuff is useless, it only treats a thin surface of the rust.if you dig under the treated area there's always rust..media blast or cut it out..

      Adam White Thanks. I always forget to look there. Are you going to change the front drum brakes to discs? If so, I would like to see a video of it being done. I want to do it to my '69 mini, but I'm not sure on how to go about it and I can't find anyone on TH-cam who has done it. Good luck with it.

    • @AdamWhite

      A new new one can cost between 4 and 6 thousand pounds and a completely rusted one maybe 400

    • @AdamWhite
      @AdamWhite  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yep that sounds about right! A shell on their own without subframes etc are very cheap but difficult to transport.
