Raising Junior - Home built restoration - Classic Alfa Romeo

[@stevewuertz3598]

Simply amazing work that shows what can be done without needing $10K worth of tools. Thank you for the recap-I need to revisit some/most of the clips again. Between you, Fitzee and Greasy Fingers, I've learned a lot. Again thank you

[@raisingjunior6389]

Glad the videos are useful, we enjoy coming up with solutions on a budget as much as sharing them :)

My 1300 Junior has been parked in my warehouse for over 10 years. Your videos have inspired me to finally start the restoration project I had in mind when I bought it. Your methods make restoration look a lot less complicated. I can't wait to see the end result, best of luck.

[@raisingjunior6389]

Thats great, it does look quick in the video but it takes a long time to line up the panels well, taking them on and off before welding them, still take your time, it's satisfying to see it get better with every stage

[@t.g.998]

Wow! 4 years, but the finish line is in sight. Can't wait to see the final product, but also going to miss watching you and your dad work metal magic :)

[@raisingjunior6389]

Thanks, well the finish line for bodywork is in sight but there are many other things to rebuild, it will keep us busy with other jobs (and new videos :)

[@AlfaAddicts]

Just love this recap, wow the work manship that you giys have put in is a credit to you💪👍🏻😎

[@raisingjunior6389]

Thanks, it's the common places were these old Alfas like to rust !

[@restocal63vw82]

A big well done and thumbs up to the wonderful transformation you have done. It is an amazing journey. 👏👏👏👏

[@raisingjunior6389]

Thanks a lot :) I like your User name, my first project as a teen was a Lowered 61 beetle on early fuchs repro wheels :)

Great job! My kind of restoration

[@raisingjunior6389]

Thanks, there are more episodes after this when we started painting the body

[@kevinpantera4429]

@@raisingjunior6389 I'm seriously looking at a 1967 1750 Alpha Veloche. Scarry rust but seen worse. Runs drives stops. Decent shape. On the fence, am pretty decent with a wrench and been long time since I did any body work, but I guess it's like riding a bike! Wanting 16k quite a bit to me. Prices r crazy now but music going to stop. Will keep car if I fix up. And drive it

[@alecjones7299]

This was really great work. How long did it take you overall

[@raisingjunior6389]

This part took about 3 and half to 4 years of Saturdays working on it, prep for paint took us another year of Saturdays!

[@alecjones7299]

Wow, that’s amazing. You are a total inspiration.

[@raisingjunior6389]

@@alecjones7299 thanks I'm still not done but to be honest I only got a couple of months worth of work this past year!

[@modelleg]

Inspiring!

[@alastairwatson3201]

When is your next episode coming out? I’m looking forward to see how you’ve progressed since paint.

[@raisingjunior6389]

Thanks for the interest, it's a bit difficult to say at this point as I haven't had a lot of time to make progress on the car this year. We did move on with sound deadening, wax protection, rear axle refurbishment and just started the wiring...still need enough content for a video

..and my wife always commented: "Wish I was a car!" Ha ha dream on baby.

I'm just here from Facebook

[@raisingjunior6389]

Awesome, Episode 15 wasn't shown in the re cap :)

[@stevejanka361]

Good morning, you certainly have made alot progress in a small work area. In episode 5 you used some type of temporary fastener to hold that sheet metal in place prior to welding. What brand and model are they and where did you get them? I have really enjoyed your series of videos on this project. Thank you and take care. Good luck.

[@raisingjunior6389]

Thanks, they are called 'intergrips' not sure what brand makes them but I found a kit on ebay that consisted of 8 intergrips and 'Cleco' clamps, it's a fastener that looks like a temporary rivet with a spring

Dove posso trovare parti metalliche Mario Palermo

[@raisingjunior6389]

La maggioranza delle lamiere sono state comprate da 'Classic Alfa' In Ingilterra ma ci sono altre compagnie in Europa specializate in ricambi Alfa Classiche come OKP, Del priore, Zucca ricambi etc

Thanks!! this video is a compilation of 5 years of work on weekends, with enough practice and patience most people can do it...it takes time
