Copart 2013 Fiat 500 sport Quarter panel replacement PT 5

[@jamesward5721]

For drillin them welds, Rob, I've found using a 3mm bit through the center first, do 'em all - then get a cone bit & just go deep enough in the same hole to release the weld - it works great & better than all the "proper" spot weld bits. Cone bit is far easier/faster & lasts ages. An air-chisel is your best Pal for then releasing the panel.. Agree 100% on the battery ratchet - they're a gift of a tool. I use mine all day every day.

[@malekid24]

Boron steel is also abbreviated to UHSS - Ultra High Strength Steel. We use a lot of in the framework of our cars at Volvo! Loving these vids Rob. Keep them coming 👍

[@timfenton5153]

I think alot of us would be a bit lost without these videos, sitting here nowhere to go. Well done Rob and Chris for keeping us entertained. Thanks

[@trevorjarvis3021]

Another brilliant, fascinating video Rob, you certainly come across as a man who knows what he is doing! Time consuming job but so satisfying and the end result will be superb. First class work.

[@abuhamza1970]

Absolutely beautiful job, I knew absolutely nothing about replacing rear 3/4 panels but now feel like an expert. Thanks for the amazing knowledge sharing. Love you guys. You guys are the best thing about lockdown and keeping us sane in these strange times. Stay safe and healthy chaps 😃

[@bleepbooster]

What with the current apocalypse, the beautiful sunshine, a Frankenstein Fiat and a yard in lockdown, could be an outtake from Mad Max! Great work Rob.

[@patreynolds7717]

Hi Rob you’re defiantly not afraid of hard work. I know I guy and he uses the mini belly sander on those hardened spot welds works a treat. Try it you’ll be surprised. Thank you for entertaining the troops while we are on lockdown. Not easy going from 72 hours a week to zero my dog starts crying every time I look in his direction in case I take him out walking again. Super work I really enjoy your videos kindest regards too you and Chris

[@billwilson6096]

Being a Fiat 500 Sport owner I found this video really interesting. Thanks and greetings from Canada 🇨🇦

[@whatcouldgowrong8323]

Looking a lot better Governor. Welding is a dark art that eludes me. Well done.

[@rogerblackwood8815]

You won't believe this, but I was 4 minutes in and thinking of asking you what drill bits you use. I have tried loads, Bosch, Torx, B and D, etc etc, they all lose it after not very long! Then you go and say your drill bit was blunt!! That was a coincidence? I repair old planes, and they always have screws that need drilling out, they are also in the American sizes which is fun! I bought a box of Bosch drill bits and accessories and some were ok others not? Hope you are coping with the lockdown and keep em coming mate. This is great for me as it is the side of the garage I don't usually go in. Re building engines and stuff yea, body work no! Cheers 🥂

[@vwcoco]

Rear quarter panel renewed completely changed the look of the car , nice work !!

[@flipperth1]

You’ve got a proper vision with this project Rob. It’s looking cracking already and you’re working like a trooper! It’s going to be amazing when it’s finished. Thanks for the video and the content. Looking forward to the Truck video tomorrow.

[@stevezimmerman5644]

Love to see you doing the spot welds etc Rob. Its more about seeing the detail of how you do it and what can be achieved. You can fix rear quarter damage fairly easy, most people get scared off at the mention of the rear quarters. I'm not so experienced with the bodywork and watching your videos like this are helping me have the confidence to get involved doing the body work on my pulsar myself, I'm more a mechanics guy (although I don't claim to be a mechanic). 90's import Nissan arches rust up a treat after a few British winters.

[@skodakatie7341]

The Fiat 500 is really coming together now, well done, can’t wait to see it finished, it will look like brand new!!.

[@colh5910]

Bang bang bang - warning! Cracks me up Rob. Your videos are so entertaining. Keep them coming. We do appreciate it. Regards Col.

[@johngoodall7097]

Another look at the innards of the Fiat 500 which we wouldn`t normally ever get to see, so a good insight into construction, and also it just show the expertise which you and Chris have, and why it is better to put the car back on the road instead of adding more cars. I did notice the drivers door mirror has damage but I expect you have one from your parts car.

[@taximan7551]

Amazing repair job. Can’t believe all the work and jobs your doing on this little car, and know because it’s you doing the work it will be a safe car when finished and look like new.

[@stevenjones19-m8i]

Hi Rob,it's looking good,with the new panel on its all one again,can't wait til it's painted.great video.

[@johneverett6751]

Hi Rob..Great to see all the work being done whilst I am here in Australia enduring lockdown..Love to see more of Chris do the dolly work as I never seem to hit that metal in the right spot..Cheers mate..🍻

[@garrywhitehurst5764]

Excellent progress Rob, very educational, top class.

[@carguyuk7525]

Your enthusiasm for cars is brilliant. comes across in every video. Love the detail.

[@cowsarsc]

Don't understand the dislikes. Good video lots of hard work and explained clearly. What's not to like ?

[@billsheehy1660]

That is the cheapest that you will buy that ratchet kit, I got mine at the NEC car show. They had it on offer , show special for £105, I showed him the amazon ad and he did it for £85. Brilliant bit of kit, you will never go back.

[@allanrolfe6173]

Nice one Rob, all coming together proper job. Great video of a very busy and constructive day for all except the mouse. Cheers.

[@alancraigie7951]

Rob, this is another level. Can’t wait to see this getting welded in to place then paint. The content as always is top notch. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@timdavies3162]

[@awgroom]

Great stuff Rob, can forget about the situation and learn for 17 minutes, thank you

[@786carrera]

Chris sounds like Ed China, master of everything! 👍

[@richardnorth5994]

Your suntan and the Little Fiat are moving on in leaps and bounds . We are all learning from you Rob , The scrapers will be overrun with people wanting to buy donor cars and projects soon . A hot stapler or plastic welder could aid repairs on future vehicles. Looking forward to more quality footage from you both . I've watched from the early days of the channel, also recommended as well 😊

[@richardmounfield7822]

Back wing has lined up great. I like the look of them clips for holding panel on

[@chrisbates2165]

Keep up the good work Rob and Chris. Looked hard work on those spot welds. More content please. Looking forward to seeing work on the old Morris commercial too. Cheers.

[@timjones825]

Hi rob hope all is well with you and Chris. You both do a fab job and I like all your videos. And the fiat 500 is looking very good now hope you make a lot of bounce on it when it’s done thanks for the video today I loved it

[@bear1245]

Great job on the f500 can’t wait to see it finished

[@Tooma1979]

Poor mickey lost his home in these hard times lol

[@bendude6748]

[@richardhawkins6960]

Love seeing these cars come back to life Rob you guys make it look so easy lol👍

[@stevetindal7917]

Nice one rob, it great to see the repair process

[@phantorizer]

Great work, more than normally shown but great to see it, Greetings from Limerick, Ireland A1 content

[@harleysmith8341]

Hi Rob seen the boys in the states take off the spot welds with a narrow gauge belt air sander 36 grit belts work a treat cheaper and quicker. Great quality workmanship. Regards Harley

[@ianadams6637]

Brilliant vlog as they always are! I would have preferred to see you aligning the replacement rear quarter more so than the drilling of the spots on the old. Just my preference and thanks for brightening up my Easter Weekend. Keep safe!

[@mattwalker4034]

Great video as always. Thanks for keeping us entertained during lockdown

[@nzilantemo]

Wow you've made short work of that Rob. Lesson learnt today was the boron steele.

[@jgvgjv2980]

Keep releasing the videos please, look forward to them very much indeed!

[@duffduff4948]

Thanks for keeping the excellent content coming in these strange times :) keep safe.

[@vampireechidna]

Excellent job done. It's such a good transformation. Thank you for explaining the thickness of the skins. Would love to see the welding and what welder is used.

[@XXdestiny]

some guy read ended me and this video really comes in handy for replacing it many thanks

[@johnjoe105]

It would be great if you could do a copart for beginners guide, covering different cat ratings, floor damages, pros, cons, what to look out for. Pitfalls, people selling through copart and why. When you wouldnt buy. Many thanks, great videos keep up the good work

[@enriquelopez9124]

You sure have done an awesome job on the Fiat 500.

[@SunshineMix101]

'Looks like bodywork lines up brilliantly. Well done.

[@haylandbroadley9166]

Excellent vid. What a transformation already. Going to a cracking lil motor when done.😎

[@essex__rider]

That’s a proper days graft there mate! Great work! 💪

[@manuwebmb]

Love this little car vids, thanks

[@UberSynth]

Is the upper portion of that rear quarter panel above the side glass you removed part of the structure? If you had a couple of dents in that upper panel would it be a cat S write off?

[@michaelingoe5812]

Nice one rob this little fiat is coming along a treat.

[@bowycolt2132]

Keep them coming lads 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@Richard-ps7ht]

Car is coming along well. Im pretty sure you can only mig braze or spot welt in boron steel. No plug welding with a mig welder.

[@offbeatwarble]

Yep correct, if you weld it in the traditional manner you reduce its strength

[@Richard-ps7ht]

@@offbeatwarble when you mig braze it has to be an oval hole. Ww had a tool for doing it when i worked in a body shop.

[@darrencottrell5541]

Educational stuff, excellent as well as interesting. 😊

[@steveashton9156]

Hi Rob. Are there any further videos on this 500. Would like to see the final out come.. When its all sprayed and finished.. Cant seem to find it..

[@stu82pendous]

Cracking project this fiat 500 Rob defo more like these .. The more challenging the better the vids

[@stephenr6427]

That little car is looking great cheers rob

[@mammothmotouk]

Cracking video. Love the work and learning at the same time. Looking forward to the next video.

[@rossturnbull8632]

Impressive work there...👏👏👏

[@davidedangelosante6963]

Rob before the car goes to the paintshop you have to remember that the 500s has some holes in the quarter panel for the little plastic screws of the sie skirt. The donor car is a non-s 500 so it doesn't have the holes. Btw, awesome job as usual :)

[@sruk]

Davide D'Angelosante yes we have the old part to put over the top to cut them out 👍

[@andyspencer1010]

Great vid can't wait for tomorrow for the Morris stay safe guys 👌👌👌

[@azza655]

This is the stuff I signed up for. Love the work! 👍
