LOL the payment bit was on point 🤣 I'm glad you're not scared to air what had happened!

[@Joshwaa___]

😂😂

[@deansmith6924]

You did a fantastic job on these. The M5 is the icing on the cake, I have the New Years afternoons booked to see what you do next. Wishing all a happy Christmas and a great new year.

[@brimbianco]

you guys know what youre doing! the e34 touring just looks amazing.

[@thomasm6873]

I kept thinking the plate looked familar watching these vids I had a red e36 maybe 13 years ago Reg N548HLU lol.. keep up the good work Josh

[@besenzon1]

Amazing job Josh. Great to see the Touring coming back to life. 😎👍

[@Joshwaa___]

More to come!

[@marcduthie4327]

Great to see the Touring finished. It's looking great. You should be very proud of your achievements in rebuilding this car. Have a great week and a great Christmas. Marc from Australia 🇦🇺

[@cian7776]

Easily one of the best channels on KZbin

[@gazzafitz9]

That payment bit had me rolling, had that happen recently in my shop, someone not wanting to pay for 2 hours labour after spending 5 on their car 😂

[@serious625]

ah ye😎😎yo also ur backing music is dredd bro,good ole hip hop,keep it up!!..merry xmas nd thanks for content bro..

[@davidh4632]

Crazy amount of work on the underside, many congrats on a fantastic end result.😊

[@Joshwaa___]

Thank you! Cheers!!

[@zanebakhas331]

The touring looks good from where it was to this point. The wheels dont do it justice though great work .

[@chrisanslow]

Been a while since I saw an old school mandraulic alignment tool too.

[@Joshwaa___]

proper!

[@habsom1406]

I'm drooling, I want one! 😎

[@antonyread5595]

I’ve not seen a set of momo arrows for years!!! My old man had a set on he’s Vauxhall senator 3.0 24v when I was in my early teens. Nice to see cars being saved.

[@Joshwaa___]

Proper old school haha

[@Matt_Dongray]

Actually going to miss seeing this car on the channel, it's been great to watch the process and it's looking great!

[@rickydub6950]

Pretty amazing that it gets to live on after all those years and it looks so good too 👌 top work 😎

[@Joshwaa___]

It really is!

[@G40daily]

Respect for the number plates with the correct age font! A pet hate of mine 😂

[@Joshwaa___]

It’s a must do thing now!

[@cholleron]

Loving the green! What a car👍🏻

[@chrisanslow]

Welding to cast iron, I detest it with MIG, top job as always and via the magic of KZbin you make it look simple.

[@Joshwaa___]

Haha thankyou! it is tough! i only do it every now and then so it’s hard to practice!

[@whatsnextsmith6411]

Wagatha Christie does KZbin 👏 Just shows some people forget where they came from. FairPlay mate.

[@Joshwaa___]

i have had to google who that is 😂😂

[@blacksgt.philphallus2470]

thx for the heads up gonna put a new suspension in my old merc next week xD

[@Joshwaa___]

they’re very dangerous😂

[@markwalton8644]

The Touring looks great, especially on the Old Skool Momos and the Green really Pops! But Surely it's not the End ? That's going to need lashings of Lanoguard and a Proper Engine. I've been in an E34 518 and it's Proper Slow! Anything less than a V8 is not going to do😊😅

[@nicksatrangequipment]

I was looking at getting a shop press to do my own wheel bearings because I wasn't sure how the specific bearing tool would work. It looks like that tool works great though! Thanks for showing that!

[@cemoto15]

Looks mint as always 😊

[@hotshotfx3502]

Momo arrows awesome.. had them on my MK2 GTi in 1995-6.

[@OwainPreece-ie6bb]

Cool car, the period number plates are a nice touch

[@Joshwaa___]

Retro plates on instagram if you fancy some!

[@swebb302]

I was breaking an E39 individual cos it needs jacking points. Think I'm going to try to get it done. You have been an inspiration 🎉 Fxxk off rust I'm coming 🔨

[@Joshwaa___]

Glad I could help! good luck!

[@mpglass8560]

Hey it looks very good and impressive cast welding cheers Steve

[@Joshwaa___]

Glad you like it Steve!

[@SG-w9j]

Smashing out these videos Josh, top content 👌

[@Joshwaa___]

Glad you like them! thank you!

[@sandwichbar8226]

Ooooh Cheeky oversized rear number plate 😮👍

[@habsom1406]

Has the period correct font too!

[@Joshwaa___]

The little touches isn’t it!

[@ryandennehy2400]

Looks mint! Lewis is lucky to know you for all that work (heavily discounted of course) 😂😂

[@Joshwaa___]

lewis is so bloody lucky !!!

[@ModernClassics81]

Thanks Josh, just saved £10 on a full set of brake lines for my RS turbo👍 keep up the good work mate!

[@WayneDownie-y7b]

Another great episode love the banter with your mates top notch lads lads chat. Have a very merry Christmas josh and all the best for 2025 oh and get that M5 finished haha looking forward to some more episodes on it 👍

[@RichardPalmer-o2t]

Paid for a top job and customer/friend was smiling 😂😂 great seeing it slammed top job josh

[@Joshwaa___]

That’s how it works! haha

[@alanparkinson5724]

Looks Great josh love the estates good job

[@Joshwaa___]

Glad you like them!

[@habsom1406]

Superb narration Josh! On point, smooth flowing and seamless, a bit like your welding, ha! Next career - Professional voice over artist or DJ. Underside looks amazing btw, great work dude. 👍

[@Joshwaa___]

Haha thankyou! this video was literally rushed together friday morning, so this one wasn’t my best effort!! thanks though! glad you you enjoy !

[@andrewhobday3863]

You will be able to Tig definitely. The trick with welding is knowing what shit welding looks like and just not doing that.

[@Joshwaa___]

😂😂 i try

[@nedkelly4999]

That looks dope 👌🏻👊🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@Joshwaa___]

🙏🙏

[@Andreweg1981]

Mr e34 seems fair keep up the great content 👏 😊

[@Joshwaa___]

mr e34 i am!

[@habsom1406]

@@Joshwaa___ Dr. e34 I'd say! 🧐

[@sp4nkz0r]

Great. Now I need an e34 again 😂

[@Joshwaa___]

get one 😂

[@mpglass8560]

You building a good following worth putting the E24 project in the mix especially as one is on Netflix black doves !!! got to be worth a try cheers steve

[@antonyread5595]

That e24 is an early e12 based car too. Nice to see

[@Joshwaa___]

I have seen that! it’s looking good!

[@daf55t]

It seems tempting to me to get all the goodies from the rotten M5 in this beauty, out with the four, in with the inline six!

[@Joshwaa___]

Nahh can’t do that!

[@BerwhaleTheAvenger-b5s]

I used to deal with Milcars Ruislip. "We don't sell run of the Milcars". 😆

[@Joshwaa___]

hahaha that’s good

[@honda4185]

Next up is getting your mates help you with the M5 so it's gets done to next autum👍 Well done and great video!

[@Joshwaa___]

that would be nice! thanks!

[@ZakKol69]

What colour gravitex is this underneath dude? Looks bloody ace. Got an Alfa 75 in the shop that needs similar and want it to look this good 👍

[@swebb302]

Respect

[@Joshwaa___]

😎

[@andersn4707]

came out Nice 👍 a bit underpowered tho those 518 a nice challange would be to get an e34 saloon and put an m54b30 in it then do some tuning, turbo or kompressor

[@AlexGSi2000]

Perfection. Where do you find these cars man? I need one!

[@Joshwaa___]

they always, and i mean always, find me 🤣

[@pierrebalansa5363]

I love the gathering with the car near the garage door with the mates as you would say.. I really admire you and your work, a passion turned into a business, dream of many! I couldn't help but see a MK2 Golf on one of the takes, is that for future content? Kind regards, love the videos and you seem like a really nice guy (bloke, right?), cheers

[@Joshwaa___]

Thankyou!! i am a nice bloke 😂 the Mk2 wasn’t a main priority to film! but maybe i might! who knows!

[@frankiewalnuts]

Need to do some rust repair to the lower drivers door, luckly theres a trim split so you can get away with just respraying the bottom part. Need to get those roof bars off and get the shot blasted and sprayed black

[@Joshwaa___]

It’s pretty bad, so just gonna get another door shouldn’t be an issue!

[@frankiewalnuts]

@@Joshwaa___ it's not like you dont have spares lol

[@mattus1gig]

Seeing these old BMW’s makes me miss my old G reg 318i ☹️

[@Joshwaa___]

get another!

[@mattus1gig]

@ scrapped it because I had a company car. It didn’t have a bit of rust and the oil was still gold coloured, it was just sitting there so off it went. Couldn’t afford one and the same condition.

[@adamsyaseen2334]

Wow beautiful 🤩

[@Joshwaa___]

Thanks 🤗

[@arminkierylak9620]

Jak dla mnie jeśli e34 to tylko w turinngu🤩 Dlaczego go umyliście z tym mchem i zielonym lakierem wyglądał nietuzinkowo, brakowało tylko choinki z lampkami na dachu i można robić za Mikołaja🎄😁

[@lonoreturns]

Did they change the colour name? My e36 touring is the same but called Boston green.

[@Joshwaa___]

different shade mate!

[@lonoreturns]

@Joshwaa___ ok. Looks exactly the same on screen. Is oxford darker or lighter?

[@Joshwaa___]

@ darker ! i believe!

[@Darkknight21789]

Hey Josh - are you selling these cars on?

[@Joshwaa___]

i am not mate! the green touring isn’t mine! a few cars on this channel are not mine, and just customer work!

[@Darkknight21789]

@ oh I see, these are you a video of your day to day work on customers cars! I like / prefer e28s to e34 I must admit. Lovely cars though. Good work mate

[@mattjeal1812]

Hi mate where did you get the bearing puller from that looked easy 😂

[@Joshwaa___]

amazon 😂 £73 i think!

[@mario54vro]

Should i get a e34 after owning a golf 4 as my first car ?

[@andyluckman9238]

Hope you did him good price 🙃

[@Joshwaa___]

i certainly did!

[@swebb302]

34 was my race number at my scalextric club in the 90s 😅 just saying 😂

[@Joshwaa___]

nice haha

[@AndrewMalley-y6h]

Chagig the subject would u ever do a scooby engine STI conversion on a Subaru Brat

[@Joshwaa___]

i wouldn’t mate!

[@jpeg3933]

the wheels on the wagon are momo arrow wheels. Just an FYI

[@Joshwaa___]

i know ! we had about 18 of them haha

[@KrisArcher-nw5yq]

I almost bought the skyline in the background 4 door.

[@Joshwaa___]

ahh!!

[@d4ve587]

Momo arrows 😂alloys rare like the beemer

[@Joshwaa___]

17x9 too!

[@scorcha100]

Everyone likes mates rates which is all good but that heavily discounted rate still needs to be paid as time is money and bills and overheads need to be paid. What is so hard to understand about this ? A certain person seems to think that cos a bit of fame has got to his head that someone else’s hard graft should be done for him completely free. Glad you stuck to your guns mate and have shed light on said person their true colours were beginning to show 👍🏾

[@Joshwaa___]

The truth will come out eventually, everyone just speak to in person about it. has had bad dealings, or knows a guy that has, It’ll all come out, i won’t be worried to air the bad dealings if i have to 😎

[@bartomiejpapiernia2583]

21:00 is Lewis drinking beer from Poland?

[@Joshwaa___]

yes haha

[@TheOldskool97]

I absolutely am 🫡

[@frankiewalnuts]

I hate putting minging used parts back on a freshly undersealed car

[@Joshwaa___]

Sometimes it just happens, taking the front subframe out is a bit of a pain

[@ToCoKe-g5s]

M5 touring

[@Joshwaa___]

noooo

[@DanRoper-ex2vy]

Love it if u want poilshing I will do it for ya

[@Joshwaa___]

i recon he will need it!
