Hats off to you fella ,it was a real pleasure watching a master panel beater at work it's pure artistry

[@slgclassiccars4098]

Thanks a lot

Excellent craftsmanship and to start lots would say it’s too far gone. Proof with right skills nothing is beyond saving.

[@craigpennington1251]

You got much more skill than I will ever have plus the pockets ($) to do this stuff. Most guys look at this and say CRUSHER. Wish this video had sound. This car isn't just restore. It's re manufactured by hand. Outstanding craftsmanship.

[@slgclassiccars4098]

I don't have the pockets to get this job done... my client does 😄

[@craigpennington1251]

Quite understandable and glad that he does.

As the owner of an E Type OTS for the last 35+ years....well done & quality work for sure.

[@slgclassiccars4098]

Thank you very much

[@mikeg5877]

I think I saw a piece there with no rust... seriously though, you have tremendous skill. I watched this several times, and slowed the feed so I could absorb your approach and technique. Outstanding work Sir!

[@slgclassiccars4098]

thanks a lot!

Ce chantier est impressionnant. J'ai eu la chance de voir cette E Type chez vous en cours de restauration. Bravo !

Veramente Ravi. Restauro fatto a regola d’arte con vera maestria lattoniera e con pochissimo stucco come solo dei veri professionisti sanno fare. Potreste lavorare tranquillamente per grandi desiner come Giugiaro, Pininfarina, Bertone ecc. congratulazioni da un vecchio restauratore in pensione, ma che non riesce ad abbandonare questa meravigliosa passione..!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

The factory applied chip guard to the bottom of the tub before paint, and left all the spot welds visible.

[@psv1600]

Vous êtes impressionnants...

[@tomthompson7400]

Stunning. but the left front edge of the bonnet looks a bit wavy in the overhead light reflections at times , but given the starting point its a huge step forwards , looks like a lot of man hours though.

[@slgclassiccars4098]

If you're talking about the last pictures, it reflects some trees, it's probably the reason why it seems "wavy"... believe me: it's not :-)

[@stephanelouvet1113]

From 51% of new parts installed, it's not a restore anymore but a remake. 😆 Awesome craftsmanship. What a talent. I'm speechless. 🏅🏅🏅 Edit : Mais vous êtes en Belgique ! 😃 Vous faites une journée portes ouvertes ?

Четко, в натуре класс)

[@piopierrew2800]

Super , quel a été le coût de cette restauration?

[@slgclassiccars4098]

Ce genre de projet dépasse largement les 500heures de travail (carrosserie+ peinture). Nous travaillons à 65€/h. Si vous avez une question plus précise n'hésitez pas à me téléphoner ou m'envoyer un mail.

[@Breadbandit1]

How much would a job like this cost?

[@slgclassiccars4098]

About 40k€

[@anthonykinrade8642]

Where was the windshield?

[@johnnystog2281]

Brilliant overview ! How did you create the part shown in 3:25 ? Was that split into several pieces?

[@slgclassiccars4098]

No this part is in one piece. I have no video about the making of it... a bit of shrink here, a bit of stretch there, I can't remember exactly😀

[@johnnystog2281]

@@slgclassiccars4098 Nice job there, tried making an inner wheelarch myself w/approx THE same contour to 3:25. Not easy..

What wire you are using when gas welding? Normal mig wire? 🤔

[@andreasmeerkamp8627]

Great job, but some explanations would have been helpful

[@slgclassiccars4098]

Wathever I show on social networks, there's always someone to tell me it's either too long or too short, that I should do it this way or that way instead. It makes me tired. It's better than nothing, isn't it? My job is restoring classic cars, not creating content on youtube.

[@flemmingmadsen5313]

No wonder a restaurant E-Type costs money.
