- In this video we start to grind back the drivers side arch and sill section to reveal so much filler and rust , even more than the previous side.

I could sit for hours watching these guys work. They make it look so effortless recreating what the rest of us would confine to the history books. Absolutely breathtaking what they achieve. Long May you keep doing what you do.
Top notch work 👍. The main problem with these Mantas is that for many years there was no availability of repair and replacement panels - so bodges like we see here were common place.This was a typical ' Bodyshop' resto from 25 years ago - horrid, but it probably saved the car from death back in the day.
Fantastic job - you can almost hear that old Manta breathing a sigh of relief as you give it a new lease of life!
When I watch this I wonder how much money have the previous repairers spent on filler, not to mention all the time it must have taken to sculpt it in to the shape of a car! Great work as usual.
At least this time the vast majority of the money spent has been on putting metallic structure back into what I consider to be a lovely sculptured shape car.
@@boldford True.
Just have to be thankful that previous owners bodged them through MOTs etc otherwise these cars would have been crushed many moons ago
@@leer798 That makes sense, you forget many years ago these were just cheap cars to run about in and people got them through the test by any means.
I mean, credit where credit is due, absolute work of art with the filler 😂
Great to see such an iconic classic car being taken care of at your place. Very nice work!
A, pleasant to the eye, sculptured shape
Had a fair few motors like this. Top tip is to take a handful of varied-strength magnets with you when viewing - quite amusing to see the look on the vendor's face when you tell them where the filler is, how deep it is, and what the car's really worth because of that bodge. If you want to avoid the dust, a heat gun works well. Once warmed up it's easy to shave off.
Great work as always, guys. There is something very satisfying and relaxing with watching people doing quality workmanship. 💪
Wow! A fair bit of ‘mission creep’ on that arch. Superb job again. 👏
That car must have weighed 2 ton with that much mud on it!! Great work, could watch this all day!
Even though the job was not up to today's standard the work they did back then helped to preserve the car for today until a bodyman with skills came along. We stand on the shoulders of the past
Bondo and Paint makes me the welder I ain't. Finally the Manta is in good hands. Can't wait to see the result. 👍
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Looks like they were going for a wide body with all that bondo... not as bad as the Disaster Dotson though that car was horrible don't know how it didn't crumble on the first road bump. Awesome work Steve 👏 👏
Gonna get a fair few more mpg out of that when it's done, with all the filler work and panels over panels - must be gutting when you have such a nice looking car but also so satisfying to know it 'll be sorted
Always impressed that you can recreate the original inner (and so invisible) parts so well. Particularly when they're not there any more.
Yeah Steve is putting the nice touches where most would have just breaked, cut & slapped in some sheet and called it done.
That's crazy how much body filler was applied to that arch.
I had a Opel Manta B Berlinetta 1.8,,,, Coil spring back end and axle location to die for. What a sweet car to drive, the wife L-O-V-E-D it
My uncle had one, you could literally see the rush forming as it was parked up. Cheap purchase from Germany on the BAOR years. My family came back with a full house of goods as no tax at the time and Army covered the moving costs. Loved the car as a boy, in fact that car is same age as me lol I have to say I’m looking my age and could do with a patch or two 😂😂😂
After the initial shock, I am sure your client is glad he brought his car to you for restoration. When it leaves it will be back to factory standard.
Maybe better!
I could watch this channel forever and a day and still not get tired of it I love ❤️ this channel and you guys Ryan and Steve and the crew are the best..
OMG ‘ a tin of isopon and a daily mirror is all that’s needed here 😂. Cracking work 💯👌
Sacrifice for the algorithm. I''ve learned so much from YCR for my own project. Thank you.
WOW! WOW! WOW!!!!
Fantastic work 👌
The filler is for the flared arch look 😉😂
A pleasure to watch, what a craftsman!
So impressive to see. Someone invested a lot of time applying all that filler, it must be frustrating to see a car that has supposedly been worked on already in such a poor state.
Thank you Richard :)
These guys are artists.
no no no no......don´t let the video end.......
20 minutes are over so quickly again.....just when it got exciting.
Thank you steve 👌👌
Complimenti per il lavoro,da maestro!.bella opel
So viel Erfahrung und liebe für das Detail
Top job as usual
Didn’t see that one coming Steve, enjoying watching your method of workmanship.
Shocking to see how much filler was laying under that paint. When this original repair was made I would hope there were guys and girls out there that could work to your standards. But unfortunately filler was the quickest way to finish the job.
BTW whoever does your camera digital/ music work, does an amazing job 👍🏻👏🏻.
We do our camera work and music ourselves. For example in this video, all the filming, the actual work, the editing and choosing the music, creating the thumbnail, uploading the video, and editing the description and title was all me (Steve) all Ryan's videos are all done by Ryan :)
@@yorkshirecarrestoration now….you’re just showing off 🤪👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
We also do it in our spare time as we both have full time Jobs as well.
Those filler bodgers... aarrhhh!!! Great metalwork Steve and on a car I hold dear to my heart!! Keep up the great channel
Thought you were trying to recreate the white cliffs of Dover on the arch for a second......shocking repair
Amazing work once again.
Very nice work, well done!!!
When cake icers take up body filling you get that arch work...
Wow, body filler arch extension, you dont see them very often that thick 😂
That is an audacious amount of Bondo🤘
Shocking amount of filler. 👀.. Well done !.. Coming from a family of welders and fabricators I'm super impressed with your work.. Respect from Somerset UK 👍👍🇬🇧❤️
Absolutely brilliant
All that work😊
Well you have to give that bodywork guy credit for the shaping of these massiv layers of filler xD
A car carved out of filler, bloody hell, i remember years ago a neighbour using newspaper and a sponge to fill a hole and filler over 😯
My dad actually paid someone to fix rot holes, only to discover he'd used corrugated cardboard and filler. Not even that long ago, 2012.
@@Ragnar8504 Bloody hell
@@ronnierobinson1502 Spotted it because the cardboard started to peel apart after a few days of rain about a month after the "repairs" were done. The chap actually tried to get out of the hole he'd dug for himself by claiming he'd done a temp bodge to see what the MOT tester had to say about the whole situation and in case the van had a chance of passing he'd have fixed the holes properly. Yeah, right.
@@Ragnar8504 i find its less work to do job right ....imagine wet cardboard n paper
@@ronnierobinson1502 Sounds horrible, doesn't it? No idea why he thought that might be a good idea.
Filler is for the weaks !
Steel is for real car workers 😂 🦾
Bravo!👏
I love all the old bodgery you uncover. Proper Frankenstein's monster job that! 😂 Nice fabrication there putting it right - no messing around. Plate's made and welded right in. Proper craftsmanship, no wasted motion.
You seam to always fetch „the right sort“ of cars😀!
Great Job again Steve... Always liked the Berlinetta SR, and that's a lovely looking car, and colour.... thankfully it's in the best hands for repair!
Unlike the previous bodge job! 👍👍
I was just wondering if you could fix my partner rusty starfish and replace it with a new bit . You guys do incredible work.
Nice ,great stuff from you guys😎👍
Ooh, I see it, not much better.. But skillful repairs,super!!!😊
Pure artwork ,and on your hands and knees
Thanks for making these they're so useful and much appreciated.
Master.
I'd really like to bring you my 1968 Alfa Romeo spider
Your quite welcome to :)
Great video pal 😊you’re work is outstanding very therapeutic, cheers 👍
Another brilliant, educational and very satisying video. Thanks so much for sharing!
Addicted.
Superb video, I really admire you and your work, skill, perfection!
Boa noite parabéns meu amigo que belo trabalho e assim que agente faz muito bom que Deus abençoe sempre
The car will be lighter after getting rid of all that filler. 😮👍
Not all heroes wear capes 👍
Lovely work there :) was wild how much filler was in that back quarter.
this car is going to weigh at least 100lbs less by the times you're done! Fabrication skills are crazy good.😁
Great video 👍 Classic car =classic repairs 😅, lovely job in the discovery stage you and the workshop turns filler white with a tint of orange keep up the great work 😊
With so much filler, you have something to collect all the dust and not letting it go into the air.
wow that small rusthole in the beginning, really escalated quickly
It did :) it's now a huge one :)
What year is this manta made in? It's interesting how well it is preserved compared to the circumstances.
Manta B 1975
I've seen a spot welder in action over at Dom Chinea's channel. Compared to the method of punching a hole in one panel and welding it to another - are both methods "equal" in terms of strength!? Or are there panels which must be spot welded for structural integrity?
equal" in terms of strength yes
This is sooooo satisfying to watch 👍👍👍
The chrome arch trims definitely create serious rust issues 😮 . It must be frightening for the owner to see such bodging .
best way remove lot of filler burnt it and peels off
great cutting skills ACE
Een echte Plamanta, zo zijn ze allemaal, hard gemaakt met plamuur.😂
Thank you for your support :)
Sorting out a proper bodge job 👏
It's truly a pleasure to watch these guys applying their craft effortlessly 😊😊.
But on a negative note that intro. showing the underside and corner repairs has to go, you can only watch that a few times before it becomes off putting 😢😢😢
Fantastic work
Is that wire wheel recommended to strip an entire car
Another great video! Steve, when is a car considered “to far gone” to save? 🤔
When you haven’t got the money to have bespoke parts ‘made’ for it I suppose.
Some people say when the cost of hiring someone for the repairs exceeds the sales price of comparable cars in good shape. Others say when the cost of parts exceeds the price of a decent car. If you DIY all the metal the limit might be not being able to finish the car within a lifetime. All a matter of definition. If someone else's parts car is in better shape than the one you're trying to fix it might be worth doing the parts car instead. If a vintage car is unique or extremely rare, the sky is the limit.
The last bloke that fixed that car was a painter decorator. When you take the headlining off you’ll probably find an artex ceiling 😂😂😂
Wonderful as ever!
Just my type of horror movie 🍿
That’s some filler in there and I bet you’ve still seen worse than this, great work Steve
How much pudding ! ALL OF IT
I've picked up the pieces of a repair arch welded over the top of the old quater plenty of times over the years, but holy crap that was a lot of bodge.
Some people know just enough to steal someones money.
This side looks as bad or worse than the other side. But we know it will look beautiful when you are done Steve. Thanks for the video.
16:20 so hard to grind a straight line like that even when it's marked out... and it's being done with a cutting disk 🙂Master's touch
As Marlon Brando once said: "The Horror...."
Whoever put that filler on must have had a really long run up. Nice of them to let Stevie Wonder tack the arch on first though.
This old repair looks like american style with a lot of bondo. This car remember me to the car of my father his Ascona B with more rust then this car but the same color and the same roof.
How thick is the filler/primer layer looks like 5mm or more
More like 10-15 mm in some spots. Absolutely mental!
Formally worked on by a cake decorator going by all that icing
It's all been said, so this one's just for the algorithm.
Sometimes I can just see your thought process when tackling these jobs, for example when you stopped using rubber patch behind the fork to get the trim off, that's when I knew you deemed the rust to be worse than first anticipated.
At least the semi-tack welded/hack'n pack job you uncovered was sealed up pretty good, I'm guessing the last guy didn't get paid to do it 100% but he definitely did what he could for the customer, very rare, could have been far worse.
Another lesson in how to do it. The person that did the original repair should be taken to task for the complete botch done to thr car. Mantas were of their generation and the big bucks were spent on the engine. Nobody around that time cared to much about the rust side of things. How do i know about these things "coz i was there." I have a 2003 Honda Civic with the came issues. The repairer must have been on Speed when he gave me the estimate to repair. 👍 😂
You can literally buy entire books of Manta driver jokes in Germany! Quite a few of them revolve around lowering something.
Man has Talent .............................................................Fort Worth,tx.....................................United States
Last guy who worked on this should be a plasterer
Price of filler could have got a parts car
How thick metal sheet are you using? We gone start sand blast ouer manta cc.
There’s more filler than car in that body😮
Must be very difficult quoting a price for the jobs you guys undertake when you have no idea what you are going to find underneath all the filler and bodges !!
Unless they quote a job like that on a strictly T & M basis they could easily become busy fools.
@@boldford Looking at some of the problems they find it’s easy to see how a car can become a massive money pit very quickly.
