Good point but...I ve seen plenty of shyte resto jobs at shows here............let he who is without sin etc etc............;)
Maybe the guy couldnt afford 20k to have some "expert" do it for him....;)
I'm no mechanic or car restorer, just have a great interest in old cars because I'm old enough to remember the cars of the 60's.
Got my first car in 74.
But if I was brave enough to do a restore I would'nt put it up on youtube until I had it nct'd.0 -

Yeah..i know what you mean, it just irks me when i hear another "enthusiast" havin a go at someone elses pride and joy...The guy has done trojan work on the car ,its not perfect but doesnt warrant the "worst resto ever" award....;)

It's pretty poor to be fair! this guy has done a couple of "restos" and I can't really see why he would put the videos up unless it's for us to have a little chuckle. I'm not having a go at him by any means I think fair play to anybody who tries to restore a car but I also know to my cost the difference between a good job and a bad job so why can't we call it what it is and say it's a bad job?Yeah..i know what you mean, it just irks me when i hear another "enthusiast" havin a go at someone elses pride and joy...The guy has done trojan work on the car ,its not perfect but doesnt warrant the "worst resto ever" award....;)
But very funny:D0 -

sorry bud , but i have watched nearly all his videos and trust me , its not a dig at his work , i even said in my OP that not knocking him for trying
but it is dangerous at the extreme , nothing to do with having a 10,000 resto job done , its having basic and i mean BASIC knowledge of what you are doing
did you not see/hear the bit about FILLING the petrol tank , or see the massive holes in the floor pan that he just sprayed over ?
and in fairness , read the title - i was asking the question , is it the worst ? not making the statement that it is
but if i have to call a spade a spade - yes it ranks as poss one of the most haphazard dangerous welding/resto jobs i have ever seen
Trojan work ?? so filling a rust bucket with filler and pigeon **** welding is Trojan work ???
its a piece of scrap now just as much as it was before he started0 -

ouch........;)
Lets see your "resto" pictures and let us judge your effort........i think its quite clear in my posts....:rolleyes:
nothing to prove to some random troller - dont like the thread i started - then stop posting on it - simple
we are talking about this guys bodge job -not mine. you can better? then you start a thread with your resto on it - other wise - cop on and go away
because you really must not have watched his videos from no:29 to 32 , have a watch,and then try convince us all that he is " doing trojan work "
he clearly states many many times he thinks he is doing a sports car resto , but in fact he is filling a ROTTEN car with filler - you do understand by definition that is not a restoration dont you ?
as for my two restorations - dont you worry sonny - they are just peachy 0 -

WOW !!!!! he really doesnt have a clue... mind you... not sure if he is any better than a lad who started a job on a BGT here who charged the earth moon and stars and has cost the same to put right..
That poor engine and gearbox will have some weight to pull around !! 0
