Fixing up the Magirus Deutz 170D11 - Part 2

[@FAR2G]

Man, i wish a lot more people had this diligent and in depth approach to their work. Simply a joy to watch.

[@Ivc406]

Hi you're work ethic is second to none the logo and truck name top class,with the transformation nobody will recognise this old Maggi keep them coming love this channel regards from Scotland 🚚🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎥

[@garypoulton7311]

Excellent work, never thought that grille would straighten out so well.

[@Oesterreicher77]

Yeah fixing that front grille gives the truck a way cleaner look, well worth it (and driving around in a Magirus has way more style then an Iveco) Also at this point i wanna say i really enjoy the content together with that background music you use, reminds me of the old training VHS back in the days and i love it XD

[@KJOff-Road]

Haha, i hadn't even thought about that. but i see it now :)

[@nicolasfournaise9284]

Thanks for your video as always This Cab was a common development between Saviem (Renault) - Magirus - Volvo and DAF (in us you may even found some Mack (owned by renault) with this cab)

[@NUTTER8291]

Another thought, WHEN it's time to re paint is to use" raptor coat" on things like the bumpers and hard wearing places

[@antonisp6629]

Another excellent video. Put the license plate in the front grill, where the 170D plaque would be.

[@SeanBZA]

Would suggest primer before filler, it makes a big difference in both adhesion of the filler, and also provides protection as well. Inside the wheel arches a coat of rubberiser will make a big difference, as it is thicker and absorbs the chips better.

[@FierceMotorworks]

The body work on the grille turned out great! I love the blue color with black bumpers and fenders

[@albertomenendezsuarez9297]

Te va a quedar precioso ese Iveco/ Magirus. Seguro que cuando lo tengas al 100% ni te vas a acordar del Hunvee. Nos quedamos con muchas ganas de seguir con los avances de este interesante proyecto. Gracias por compartirlo. Un saludo.

[@ROACHRAGE2]

I enjoy watching the way you make seemingly complex tasks doable by someone with basic tools. Good work! I live in the SE USA where rust isn't so much an issue, but your other repairs also seem to be accessible to me, the average joe!

[@rollsandfloats]

Cave man methods! LOL, I love it. Great job and it looks so much better. Can't wait to see it without the box.

[@holger5555]

You made a good job, the Magirus looks good, the grille is perfekt and the logo of Ulmer Münster and first letter M complete it. I think you should use a heat gun to remove the stripes.

[@MyRailsimDoings]

That Enginesound still give me goosebumps. You've done a very nice yob.

[@michaellynskey7124]

Looks far better with the black than the white, 🇬🇧🇮🇪.

[@DBs58]

Absolutely great job fixing that front grill!! I really enjoy watching your videos and also enjoying your channel!! Keep up the great work!!

[@MrMiniac]

That front end is totally transformed!! You did a great job on that grill 💪 the whole look is completely lifted with all those jobs done 👌🤘

[@karlsjov]

Well done and an enjoyable video as always. I’m pretty impressed you managed to straighten the grill. Also, the paint job and the logo look great! Looking forward to the next video 👍

[@tubularap]

Great work on the fender. The Magirus is indeed enormous. That image of the Magirus next to the Unimog shows it well.

[@tubularap]

And then later I saw the work you did on the grill. Great too, and very satisfying to watch.

[@louisbabyCT]

Still my favorite channel, great work bud, I love how you prove that hard work will always give good results.

[@notsohairybiker]

Great repair to the front grille, looking good so far.

[@colinmcmillan2642]

Great work Kasper - The old Maggi is looking much better already. Looking forward to seeing the final product.

[@NUTTER8291]

Its amazing what can be achieved with a grinder and " the big blue glue stick " !! 😅 Nice job there fella 👍

[@taurota1554]

awesome and outstanding content as always.thanks for sharing and taking us along.

[@thelittleredbus]

Really enjoyed that film thanks. Watching you fix that front grill was mesmerising! I think the bumper is bent down at both ends, it looks worse now the grill is straight! 😂 Maybe it’s how it came from the factory? The truck looks great though.

[@scroungasworkshop4663]

Great work and it looks so much better. Well done. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺

[@peterjones4497]

The old girl looks a lot better with the wings in black. Really surprised how good the grill looked after you had worked on it.

[@dmindi1773]

Very nice work! Ther grill came out great!

[@ArdieStranger]

Very Nice. The right color is RAL5002. Seems like it originally came from Schwerin (or Schwelm?). If the truck is from Schwerin, it has been elsewhere before. There is a chance that this truck has been in a fire department before.

[@ronaldredman8122]

Nice! Thanks for the consistent up loads.

[@paul3506]

Great job looking forward to the rest of the work on this bud

[@Classicworkingvehicles]

Nice systematic work as always 👍

[@LeonardoChaia]

Amazing work dude, looking forward to the next one!

[@someguy4576]

Love how the front cleaned up, amazing work on that grille. Crazy how you got it to look like that. Speaking of cleaning up, please clean up the lense of the camera a little more often, because I swear, every video there's another little speck on the lense 😅

[@victordanielgomez637]

You are a Master, Regards from Argentina.

[@johnvender]

Truck looks amazing, the logo really makes the the front grille 😀

[@timbrake3404]

Looks so much better. Well done!

[@vod8008]

Wow. Just Wow! Amazing work on the old Maggy!

[@elmarbrinkmoller1386]

You have mail. Brlliant work so far

[@NBMBC40]

Great work looks a whole lot better.

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Dear KJ 👍👌👏 Oh WOW, simply fantastic! Sir, you did extremely well (despite what you've mentioned). Congratulations 🎉 for having all those skills and the patience to do this restoration work. Especially the grille turned out to be great and it's definitely the most recognisable repair. I was happy to see that you gave the old Magirus it's straight face back. By the way: In my memory these trucks had a big trident emblem where the remains of "THW" can be seen. Somehow all that flat metal above the grille looks unfamiliar respectively kinda weird. The Magirus Deutz emblem you put in the grill, sat directly above the grill under the big trident. The way you did it was on the slightly newer trucks than yours is. If you don't want to change it, you could maybe have a 3D printed KJ or KJ OR glued on there!? Anyway: I'm eagerly looking forward to watch the next video. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards, luck and health in particular. Post Scriptum: The only thing I would have done different is, that I always put paint on primer. Even if it's covered by underbody protection respectively stone chip protection. Doing so you have a better rust protection (because primer is always kind of open- pored).

[@KJOff-Road]

Thanks a lot! And yes, you are right, some om the older trucks had the big logo up there on the front. But this really is one of the newer trucks and this one originally had an "Iveco" logo on it's front. But i retro-fitted the logo that it has now, because it's not a "real" iveco truck. So I wanted the Magirus logo. And this was the style of logo they had, just before getting the iveco brands 🙂

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

@KJOff-Road Dear Kasper J. You're welcome, it's my pleasure. Thanks for replying. I always appreciate it. 2) I already know all that because I watched the video (and usually I do that thoroughly). In my comment I wasn't talking about the older and more rounder trucks but about this, your 'flat nose" cabover. I remember a red fire truck with the big trident logo under the windscreen and the Magirus Deutz lettering under the trident. Looks much better than having this big "unused" flat panel. At least in my opinion respectively for my personal kind of taste. But of course you made it already look much better using your skills and the 3D printed trident emblem. By the way: Do you already know what the symbol stands for? It's the rough shape of the Ulmer Münster, a famous German cathedral. 3) So there will be no KJOR lettering? 😁 ;-) For decorating respectively improving this "vast empty space", your prename would even be better. Maybe Kasper is a good name for the truck too!? 😁 ;-) Sincerely yours C. U. Casper

[@KJOff-Road]

Ah yes, now I know what you mean :) and yes, that's right. The firetrucks had the logo moved up there. But the reason for that, is because they had attachments for their water hoses mounted on the front. So the whole grille was modified. So there was no room for the original logo :) As for putting my personal logo on there. That might just be an option 🙂

[@bluedimitri]

What a satisfying episode to watch. Been looking forward to this resto on this truck

[@jjtorley627]

Brilliant video, great vehicle. Thank you!

[@SluSharkND]

I love this channel. What a huge difference that made!

[@perrygauthier1174]

Nice work! Cheers from Canada

[@paulbateman3654]

Looks like a dakar race truck without all the fiberglass arches.

[@metricstormtrooper]

WOW, just WOW.👍

[@chrisrawle2967]

Great work. Looking really good

[@phoenixsmith6026]

[@darylelder1352]

Nice job 👍 That worked out well. Thanks, KJ

[@KJOff-Road]

Thank you very much, Daryl

[@overlandme-com]

Great work. Bravo

[@coop_coop007]

Nice work.

[@oskarbud525]

Well done.

[@richardjulien8745]

Hi Kasper,it is really relaxing earring you,re voice ,you,re explanations are very clear,you,re knowledge are amazing .that Magirus must be very happy that someone like you take care of him.A big smile at the end QUESTION FOR YOU,on what type of bus are you enjoying working on?MAN,SCANIA MERCEDES,OR KASSBORHER?Keep the good work from Richard in Canada.

[@KJOff-Road]

Thanks a lot. And i have worked on many different brands. But these days i work mostly on Volvo, Scania, MAN and Mercedes. and i would have to say that i prefer working on Scania

[@douggilroy1188]

Definitely some improvement.

[@BuckleyJonathan-nr1wu]

Another great video. Thanks.

[@RalphIvanDelaTonga]

Oh hell yeah

[@chrisrhodes5464]

Trying to leave a message for you and it won't let me so I doing this in a reply I think the work on the uni mog gave you plenty of experience doing rust repair

[@FoxBodyDale]

Nice update!!

[@rods6405]

Nice work! Great Truck

[@mawe42]

Good job!

[@wolfgangramackers3593]

Super Job!!

[@alexandrostheocharis8439]

bravo !!! love this truck !

[@pinzgauernorcal]

sweet

[@Antillen44]

I am taught; first primer, than the filler. Sinds the filler can hold moisture.

[@dieselkraft]

Awesome work! But... The PTO, the PTO... - does the winch work?

[@KJOff-Road]

That remains to be seen :)

[@12trudger60]

Nice

[@noodlesswe5687]

its not far of with the biltema blue but its a blue with a hint of red in it

[@ZaphodBeeblebrox-ry5zs]

👍

[@scott_aero3915]

Lovely work, especially on the front cover! How much is a set of tyres for one of these? Will you have to replace them or have a winter set?

[@clauslarsen9912]

Rust tager bare tid 👍💪 du kunne evt. sætte dit logo på der hvor der skulle være det med hk. KJ OFF-ROAD👍

[@01thomasss]

Hi Good work! But at 39 minutes one can easily see that the camera lens needs to be cleaned a bit.

[@KJOff-Road]

Thank you! And unfortunately, it's not just dirt. the lens was hit by some sparks. so the camera is damaged.

[@ELBigYuyo]

Nizeeeeeee

[@GrubeChannel]

Please don’t apply the filler directly on the bare metal. Even if it is allowed it’s not good because the filler is hygroscopic. Imagine you have a the tiniest hole from welding, filler is soaking and falls off. Please keep going, you are doing a way better job than most of the workshop!!!!!

[@KJOff-Road]

Makes sense. Thanks :)

[@stefankaufmann8257]

​@@KJOff-Roadprotect all the overlapping sheets and hollow spaces with Fluid Film or Mike Sander. Drill some holes to apply it to the hollow spaces.

[@Jörgensmaskiner]

Volvo f407-408 Renault iveco och magirus hade samma hytter på några modeller och dom rostar utav helvete…

[@LogitechXibanga]

you fitted the piece not the peice

[@KJOff-Road]

Haha yeah. i see it now. I always end up misspelling somthing. It's like an easter-egg at this point. :)

[@LogitechXibanga]

@@KJOff-Road Something* 😂 its alright i do the same i often misspell " teh, somoen, soem" and many more. Also i did not like the bumper painted black makes it look weird idk.
