To think I trusted a tin box like his with my life for years. It was fun though.
ОтветитьAlex would be proud of you .
ОтветитьThat’s a subscription from me. Excellent work! Can’t wait to watch the rest of your videos.
ОтветитьI'm just staring at the start end of welding on a classic (1960) Mini and this terrific video has given me so many insights into how the panels are connected. Huge thanks to you for such an enormously useful video
Ответитьlovely work paul
ОтветитьHi paul i did the same on that floor. I just couldn't leave it as it whas.
Also i had the same with the sidepanels of an original 66 cooper s right side whas 9mm longer in the door position than the left side. I pressed an hammerd it 9 mm out. Whas a big challenge. But it worked out really nice. Now the ( original doors fit really snug with allmost to nice of openings around can't remember how it's called😂)
Keep up the nice work. It's allways nice watching a tallented person at work.
Greets from germany🤙
Absolutely smashing work Paul (again).. I have the popcorn ready for next episode 🙂 How do you find all the periodic details.. ?
Ответитьlove your channel and work Paul but please wear some ear plugs when grinding away in the shop.....last thing we viewers want is finding out later on you can't do your job anymore cause you got tinnitus....i wear ear plugs at concerts so i can keep going to concerts in my later years....keep up the epic workmanship...so easy to watch and understand as you apply the KISS policy :P cheers from Sydney Oz 🤜🤛🍻🍻🍻
ОтветитьPaul , you do outstanding work, this video is a great example of even if you have new body panels there is still a lot of test fitting and shaping and refining that goes in to the job , get the door gaps corrected is a job in it self …
ОтветитьGreat job. Are you going to sprinkle rust dust on it to make it look period. They were awful in their day.🤣🤣🤣🤣
ОтветитьNice work absolutely love seeing these shells come together, also love the attention to detail. Nice work 👍
ОтветитьGreat work and fascinating to watch.. 👍 how many hours work?
ОтветитьExcellent video. Well explained. I’ve subscribed.
ОтветитьProperly done - a pleasure to watch and learn. Thank you
ОтветитьMythbusters proved that hitting one hammer with another simply does zero damage or harm, but we all were told not to. lol.
ОтветитьGreat stuff thanks for sharing.
ОтветитьMore mole grips ! 😉
Great work ..true craftsman 👏🏻👏🏻🇬🇧
Hi mate lovery work mate 😂is
ОтветитьIts the best axe i ever owned .. had 3 new heads and 4 shafts ! 😂
ОтветитьFantastic work and attention to detail Paul.. Looking forward to seeing the finished bodyshell.
ОтветитьVery interesting, I do like your attention to detail, spot on !!
ОтветитьI just love watching you work your magic on fitting and fettling. Also, where in the hell did all those NOS panels come from, looking forward to next episode
ОтветитьAwesome work 👌👌💪💪👍
ОтветитьTop drawer Paul, you make it look too easy, I think anyone of us could do that! 😂 top drawer again pal..
ОтветитьFactory build tolerance for BMC bodyshells was 3/8 " so your bracket measurements are correct. This may help you but I was told at Longbridge 40 years ago when on a course their, Panels that they couldn't fit on the line because they were bad pressings were collected up and sent to parts dispatch for the dealer network ! So some poor panel beater had to make them fit a crash damaged car somehow.
ОтветитьYou really know your mini's Paul . So what floor would you fit ? or would you have to modify another makers floor to suit the year in a similar fashion . Thank Paul .
ОтветитьAn enjoyable channel. The knowledge and skill is a delight. Fascinated by the variation in bracket positioning left vis right. I recall a tuning company mentioned left and right sides varied in length which made body kit manufacturing complicated. 1960 car assembly was approximate. It is very clever how these are accommodated in the new/old built process. Thanks for an insight into your clever work.
ОтветитьYou’ve clearly done this before Paul! 😁👍🇬🇧
ОтветитьExcellent work! Nothing nicer than a brand spanking new mini, or a brand spanking new Mk1 Escort. Had both back in the day, happy memories. 👍🇬🇧

ОтветитьL & R fuel tank brackets? (Are you building a 65 S then?)
Ответитьwowsers
ОтветитьAbsolutely brilliant attention to detail ! 😊
ОтветитьGREAT .....another "fake" mini to hit the market soon !!!... 😏
ОтветитьThere is no substitute for a really good and proper job, from a mini builder, great to see, Regards Doug.
ОтветитьThanks really good job and good music!
ОтветитьIf you make those doors fit it will be better than factory. :)
ОтветитьHey Paul I checked my 1960 Austin and the bonnet hinge mounts are like you described not the same distance from cross member.
ОтветитьCraftsmanship with a big "C"! Beautiful and informative to watch this coming together with skill, precision and intimate product knowledge! Like you, I would have split the decision on the hinge brackets as any misalignment would balance out as equal across the shut line. Obviously not the way the factory saw it
ОтветитьAgain, fantastic attention to little details, a master at his work 👏
ОтветитьAbsolutely fantastic work, I could watch this all day long. I'm not sure about the music though 😊
ОтветитьFantastic work as always
ОтветитьGreat to watch a master a work. Love the videos thanks for producing.
ОтветитьRegarding the bonnet hinge brackets, all I can say is the jig must have been out on the spot welder. I worked on the machine producing the front dash panel and crossmember for the last few years of production. The brackets were slotted into a jig and spot welded. There wasn't much play in the jig.
ОтветитьMind blown
ОтветитьBet you had lots of Airfix kits as a child!!
ОтветитьBrilliant work Paul 😊
ОтветитьJust a new subscriber asking what might be an obvious answer, is the MIG welding more controllable than the electric arc welding of old, i remember doing some work on a Morris minor many years ago and remember it was very easy to blow a hole straight through. Thanks.
ОтветитьReal fussiness that goes to the far end of a fart you’re a man after my own heart ❤❤ 🔧🔧🔧🔧
