Alfa Romeo 155 restoration pt3 Paint less Dent removal

[@Matt-go7ss]

You work bloody hard mate and on your own from the looks of things. Love the videos 👍

[@kevgermany]

Nice work. The lift and forklift made the tank removal easy. Swapped mine on my Landrover in my drive. Was not fun. Blue air. Glad to see that subtle work with a lump hammer is still part of the art of fixing modern cars.

[@ItaliaAutos]

It still alive and well with me.

[@rangeg4]

i would love to see the rest of the work on this car

[@stewarthaddon3219]

Another great video Nelly. I bought a dent removal kit and a wing to practice on, well it cant be that hard can it? Sold the kit after 6 months, the wing I was practising on looked like it had been in an I.E.D explosion when I'd done 😂. There's definitely an art to it for sure. Cant fault the new impact gun!

[@ItaliaAutos]

I was also thinking of trying it but decided against it. Got loads of old panels.

[@stewarthaddon3219]

@@ItaliaAutos have a go pal..just don't buy a cheap eBay kit like I did. They're really not up to it.

[@richardjohnson3463]

Great progress Neil. Nice to see it coming along

[@ItaliaAutos]

Yeah won't be much more to do once rear end it done.

​ @Italia Autos I know you're probably a very busy person, but I was wondering if you could help me out on a sort of personal project involving a 156 1.6 that I'm taking on, I bought the car with the only problem being that the speedo wasn't working, turns out when I got home I realised I had been scammed pretty hard and the car actually has quite a few problems, I know you're quite wise on these cars which is why I came to you, I was hoping you could help me figure out the problems and I could even buy some parts from you if it makes sense logistically, I was even planning on doing a few videos showing how I fix the problems, while obviously linking to your channel. Thank you!

[@ItaliaAutos]

book it in and ill take a look. thanks

[@Johnnas]

@@ItaliaAutos I'm actually living in Portugal so that's impossible, is there any way to privately message you?

[@pablonavaridas3302]

As always, such a nice work. Well done Neil!

[@ItaliaAutos]

Thanks

[@enricofumi8072]

never seen so much love put into an alfa 155

[@ItaliaAutos]

thanks for watching.

[@chrisfernando6378]

Great content and very useful for me as I'm just about to do mine I've got red polly bushes for the subframe I'm tempted to go mad and go full coil over but not sure if its worth the expense and I've just started fitting a black leather 155 electric interior that I got off eBay last week looking forward to part 4

[@alancampbell1008]

Would love to see more of the paintless dent removal next time Neil. That's some skill.

[@ItaliaAutos]

Noted!

[@steveoc64]

I'll second that notion. It's one of those miraculous things that I'd love to learn

[@alancampbell1008]

@@steveoc64 you should watch 'Man of Steel PDR' channel on here...mind blowing what he can do.

I love your Ossidazione Milanese make up!

[@philipdean5338]

As always Neil, great video......

[@ItaliaAutos]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@matthewbell1968]

Nice work Neil 👍👍

[@ItaliaAutos]

Thanks

[@marccadec6978]

That rear subframe is exactly the same as my multipla.

[@kevgermany]

I think they share a floor pan, amongst other parts.

[@ItaliaAutos]

Yep.

[@marccadec6978]

Brava also,as it has a box chassis.

[@didisenft]

So satisfying :)

[@ItaliaAutos]

It is

[@The_Dee_Jay]

My what long forks you have 😮

[@Musti1986]

Hej , Do you know where the oil level sensor is located on a alfa 159 2.0 jtdm? It shows low on startup and on the dipstick is the level ok Thx in advance

[@ItaliaAutos]

yes i do.

[@adelkheir]

Neil am I right in assuming that the front and rear suspension and subframe work on the 155 is the same as the Fiat Tempra ? Also is it true that you need to align the front subframe with dowels ?

[@jonesy1589]

My alfa 147 1.9, has problems starting, i mean it starts! But does not start well, takes a good second or 2 to start, the glow plugs are fine, so I'm guessing the starting motor is not good? Is there anything else to check before i buy a new starting motor?

[@ItaliaAutos]

guessing without looking. book it in and ill happily take a look.

[@paullloyd1276]

Quick glimse crusty on ramp did you self lern fork lift driving seem good at it

[@13polidori]

Always a pleasure watching these great videos.Only one problem it has created a lust for an Alfa.If I may pick your most knowledgeable brain where would be a good to purchase from.Scottish borders on the east side.Many thanks.

[@Matt-go7ss]

I'd probably try and buy a car from down south. Scottish alfas tend to rust far more cus of the weather in my experience....

[@johncastrission3986]

Is there pt 4 as yet ?

[@ItaliaAutos]

It's all finished it's going back to its owner today sorry no part 4

[@OdabenMurat-mg1eu]

devamı yok galiba.

[@ItaliaAutos]

im sure it will be back in for an mot/ service next year.

[@iamyourfuture808]

it would be easy to knock rust on near quarter-century-old Alfas with 150k miles. ... but to be fair, that's no worse than my old Audi... if anything probably a bit better. so glad you are having that shot-blasted rather than attempting to do it by hand. Rust removal is a shitty job.

[@ItaliaAutos]

Shot blasted my own 145 resto project. Never again to much mess.

[@gm2543]

Hi the anti roll bar could have been cleand stop rusting more lol

[@ItaliaAutos]

Yep.
