Came here to say the same. Micky seems a top fella.

[@martinsherred8302]

Mickey looks like a key to unlocking even more quality on your channel top bloke by the looks of it.👌👍

[@hands197]

Very impressive Chris. Mickey's a great teacher by the looks of it. He deserves the 1st drive! Top work 👍👍

[@beermanuk]

We need more Mickey on the channel. Guy is a legend

[@Evergreensands]

Good job, keep Micky on payroll. He brings experience, which I think is missing on your team IMO.

[@wsg9249]

100% agree

[@barryp2519]

I love the longer and more technical aspects I’m seeing here - compared to other KZbinrs. Love it.

[@DaleSteel]

That repair guy is a top man. Knows his job for sure.

[@Dmaaaain]

He didn't know shit😂

[@BrieBrowne]

Gee Chris ya getting the car repaired quick. Look out Matt and the crew hahaha Chris is coming

[@jeanfrancoismenard705]

Guys instead to use nut and bolt on hole beside when riveting use aerospace cleco, wingnut, or wedgelock. It come with a gun or a plier and have different size. This is the way to work with a lot of riveting closing the gap btw two parts. Like on an aircraft. But the result is incredible. Very well done. I hope everything is straight and will be easy to make wheel alignment !!!! Now what... Upgrade engine ! More powah baby !¡!

[@AI-Records24]

Yep exactly what we use, top tools

[@mw5076]

great suggestion

[@urbanjungle9600]

Mickey is such a great help to have on this project and i hope he becomes an integral part of future videos. Seems like a solid top bloke who knows his stuff and is fun to have around. Great work and fabulous progress Chris.

[@jaredkruger4563]

How glad I am that there’s another video so soon❤ this shit is like that final spin of the juice that quenches your thirst. Literally keeps me going, fills that missing spot… when you’re on the verge of cracking and this just helps keep you going. Mahn Chris you have no idea how comforting these videos are. Thanks G, from 🇿🇦

[@kitcarconversions]

Micky is the man keep him on ya channel he defo knows he’s stuff what a guy

[@mickeychapman6143]

Think Mickey needs a job offer clearly an asset to your channel Chris absolute legend 😅

[@allmarque]

Be careful skipping the seam sealer as some is put in weird places due to moisture, dont want her rusting prematurely

[@JuanchoSalazar-u7e]

kzbin.infoM8YIacn0-_I?feature=share

[@aquacruisedb]

Very good point, woulnd't have considered that. Although I imagine painting & clear coating everywhere that porsche didn't do would help seal up most of it?

[@user-tu1ee6dc5f]

No. You want some of those places with heavy weather sealer esp under the sub frame into the wheel tubs to protect from the rain. Its also a sound deadener plus the bonding.

[@user-tu1ee6dc5f]

seam sealer then weather sealer. my bad but if this is a true track car.

[@hamz9804]

Great jobs, lads. You all work so well together. Positives vibes all around and really do enjoy watching your content. Keep up the hard work and hats off to you all.

[@djstangerdude]

Chris, Mat , Dean, and Ryan from Yorkshire all have my favorite channels and do awesome work. One day a collab with all of them would be monumental! I am a California muscle car guy but the Brit Boys put out the best videos! This was fun watching the front end going on and I am confident Chris can paint the outside beautifully! Keep up the great videos. I will be waiting!

[@hansbig7550]

Use earprotection Chris otherwise you will end up like me, suffering from tinnitus.

Same. But kids won’t listen.

[@kieranbrain3733]

Totally agree. Just stick a pair of cans on.

[@user-kevh]

Mickey has mad skills 👍🏻

[@paulbillson1922]

I would have definitely tried to get the rivets in quicker. I was having anxiety about the panel bond going off, just watching 😂 Great job though 👍

[@metz_86]

Surprised you didn't need some sort of jig for that entire front end to line up. Great work non the less, look forward to seeing how the rest of this build comes together.

[@kennygreaves12]

I wouldn’t be driving after that’s for sure that’s flexing like a pig around food

[@paulchapman1699]

Same, wouldn't take much to be a millimetre or two out. Lining up some pop rivet holes, and a couple of wonky tape measurements seems a bit sketchy, but maybe there's only one way it can go with that many holes to line up.

[@jakerade1]

normally you would put the subframe on.

[@jakerade1]

@@paulchapman1699 those are not normal pop rivets - they are like £2 each and are a complete bstard to remove. Probably stronger than the originals

[@cobaltkidd71]

Thats a bold undertaking on an beautiful car sir, i look forward to seeing a head to head between matt and yourself. Your attention to details really pay off.

[@blood_upon_the_rose]

"Bob's always stiff" should be on a t-shirt Also mickey is a legend !

[@CARLISONIT]

Lets Go! 💯

[@diamondsink2000]

Some weld through primer would have been good

[@jakerade1]

the bonded sections are meant to be wiped with Henkel Bonderite 1455-w primer wipes as well

[@SAVING_ICONIC_MACHINES]

Bro you are creating outstanding content and your your work is on a level of its own!! Keep up the amazing work bro 😎

[@Damo530D]

Mickey and his team are wicked mate and someone who you should deffo look after when it comes to him doing your work, very enjoyable to watch and deffo more enjoyable since you didnt mess around immaturely to much, well done Chris

[@DougSlmon]

The guy that’s helping you doing the work he’s one smart hell of a guy that is awesome. What he’s doing looks very, very, very good. Awesome.

[@GoWstingray]

Coming together now well done guys, the paint is a difficult choice, id of gone with factory coverage my self for originality but each to their own. Also its mad Porche sell those rivets when the factory ones are like single pieces of metal compressed into the panels under massive pressure.

[@chrisrayen]

Mickey seems like a sound lad. I like him.

[@kings3803]

Here we go. I do love a chris slix video and chill. Keep them up chris.

[@doostar6875]

that Mickey guy is an absolute legend. A true hardworking honest geyser and a good guy

[@xboxozzy]

Micky is the Tony of the Slix channel! A well needed asset 👏

[@karkacesub]

How do you manage to come up with such good ideas? Never stop!

[@martinbeaumont1135]

What a great opportunity to learn from the pros on your own project. Doing these jobs yourself in future will really allow you to expand the ranges of projects you take on!

[@streetmetl1]

Always use weldable primer on all bare surfaces under the two panels, or else the metel will rust from the inside out.

[@andywhitehill8958]

I was shouting "prime it" for half the video!!

[@user-tu1ee6dc5f]

They didnt etch prime it? 🤦🏻‍♂️ 10 min in

[@afaccrocazz]

Micky needs his own channel. Legend.

[@nikovanderauwera2854]

There are special drills for that job, they have a fine point and a larger base. Putting that front on without a flat table, I,would never do that.

[@SWT63]

Micky has done a sterling job of cutting that front end away, everything lines up perfectly. Micky and his pal are top boys! 🔥🔥

[@alexmacdonald4270]

Wow that was relatively quick, , it’s coming along nicely 🏆Nearly time for the wings and doors and wiring and interior. Can’t believe that glue was £360 . Love it keep up the good work. ❤

[@barryhills7830]

You needed some Avdel Skin Pins to put in the rivet holes to hold it all tight prior to riveting, they use them when riveting aircraft panels.

[@billwilson6725]

love the tunes while painting!! The finish looks good.

Bloody loved this. Extreme rebuild and you certainly are putting yourself way out of your comfort zone. Looking forward to seeing this bomb round a track.

[@MadHatter300zx]

What an amazing achievement !!! honestly I was a little sceptical when you sliced off the front ! Much love from British Columbia Canada 😎

[@kevinwright3141]

Well done Chris - watched your journey on YT with interest. Your videos are getting better, your voice over is less repetitive (you used to voice over a repeat of what you were saying in the action sequences), your confidence is growing and you are learning the art of delegation. Nice to see your progression!

[@derekcrowe2886]

Doing a grand job! Class effort from the welder!,👏👏

[@ACE_888]

You need to get that rivet guy on the channel more often. He seems like a proper character! ❤

[@kenmcintosh3705]

This is what I need to see, you getting stuck in to rebuilding just like MA...👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽.

[@79blustone]

You could do with some cavity wax on some of those areas to keep out condensation and water in and around the tub. Bilt Hamber Dynax SC50 is a perfect product for the area's you cant see and use Bilt Hamber Dynax UC for the areas you might be able to see as its a clear wax unlike SC50 which is caramel coloured. Its great stuff even if you're car is mint, a great idea to keep out the dreaded rust worm and road salts over winter. Way better then Lanogaurd junk, in my opinion. 😊

[@superflyguy4488]

Keeping it about the cars, not the people or the houses.🤙

[@Webbster77]

Mate I can’t tell you just how well a cutting liquid for drilling out the spot welds would work.. it saves the drill bits soooooo well it’s untrue.

Little heads up for future builds you can buy drill bits that are a 3mm pilot stright to a 10mm drill bit they are amazing for spot welds

[@oscarmorales5411]

Great job Mike. These are the videos that everybody starts with and then they’re on do really nothing great video my opinion what I like to see this is when you create a real car back to life.

[@kaisersoze6993]

that is one hell of a repair. good luck to you mate, keep the content coming!!

[@jamest5149]

Its too late now but next time rent some time on a frame jig for the final fit and fix… it only takes a little bit off to effect everything badly… suspension misalignment, panel gap problems etc.

[@autodallee4527]

Definitely, especially as the left footwell is still buckled and whacking the new front end back to align with what could possibly not be in the right place. You have to look closely as the camera passes across the footwell area quickly. Not applying seam sealant in the correct places and the tin of sealer being used evaporates down to nothing is also not OEM repair procedure. Then the fully painting of the front end. The list is endless

[@johnbergen9663]

These modern cars with the panel bond and rivets are mind blowing.

[@Chris_Slix]

Crazy right, i think it was lotus that pioneered the panel bond and rivet method (i may be wrong) but as wild as it seems apparently it is much stronger!

[@stellifyascended9830]

Wow 👌You certainly have leveled up your game ..not be long before you're on the same subs as MA and the rest.. congratulations man and keep smashing it...30 minutes of content is what most of us want each week if you can do it 👊🤞👏✌️💪

[@SIMONHOLFORD]

With the clear coat for the first coat do a very light coat. This then acts as a "tack coat" making the surface tacky. Which means you can go heavy on the next coat with less chance of runs.
