Whilst cleaning up the engine in the background I have started clearing out the engine bay ready for rust repairs and paint.
These tools from Supercheap Auto came in really handy in this video:

As a recent subscriber I'm enjoying your films, and all the schemes of work. It's all interesting to see success as well as failure. As a bloke just turned 65 I've had my fair share of skinned knuckles, and crawling around on the floor. Good on you mate.👍

@Badgertronix 4 года назад

Thanks and welcome

@theoracle6005 3 года назад

Like your videos. I am doing up my 1953 split screen in Black. Been thru all what your doing and still at it. Doing up all the electrics from scratch. The Devilbiss GT Pro/Sata is an excellent gun for spray painting.

Oh mate that battery tray was a pain 😬😊, I like the ideia of the grey colour ... Like you said it’s quite a big effort restoring a classic car but you are definitely doing the right way mate, it’s going to look awesome 🙌🙌👍👍👍

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

Cheers mate. The battery tray was an effort but it came out pretty tidily. Lots of learning on this one and hopefully I can do a good job

@rhkips 5 лет назад

You don't know how tempted I'd be to sound-deaden every hidden surface with it all pulled apart like that... ;)

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

Funny you should say that 😀 I do have a few rolls of the stuff to go in

@mully89 4 года назад

spot welds are always fun. I have used the tools like that but buy the kits with a dozen tips in (they blunt easily) I drill a small pilot hole to hold the tip steady. If I repair / reuse the panel the plug weld will fill the pilot hole. If I use a new panel the pilot hole will be hidden (or if really fussy plug it with the mig n flap disc over it). Makes it so much easier.

The Morris is starting to look really good now that you’ve got the engine bay stripped and cleaned up. You’ve come a long ways with it Jonathan. Keep up the good work. 😀👍

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

Thanks Terry. Even little cars are a lot of work to strip down and restore. Cheers!

This is an excellent series Mr B (Jonathan ?). Really nostalgic for an old geezer like me, think I said this before but you started with a decent car, in MUCH better condition than my 1970 Traveller when I bought her over 30 years ago and I'm now hoping, at long last, to finish a long -running restoration. Thanks for sharing

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

Thanks for watching and thanks for the support. This series is definitely bringing back memories for a lot of people. Good luck with getting yours finished! Jonathan

@garyphillips7993 5 лет назад

Looking forward to seeing it on the rotisserie and getting to grips with any bodywork issues. Well done on the battery box removal, definitely not the easiest thing!

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

I'm looking forward to the bodywork even though I don't really know what I'm doing. Cheers!

@dazt103 5 лет назад

Really enjoy watching this restoration. Inspiring stuff 🙂. You make it look straight forward.. but I'm sure it isn't by any means.. It must be hard enough without filming it all aswell 👍

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

Thanks for watching. There hasn't been anything too tricky so far but it is all quite time consuming. Filming and editing definitely slow things down!

@cogidubnus1953 5 лет назад

@EnriqueLopez-hb5jn 4 года назад

Is this car getting a full restoration, it will look awesome, the one thing I have thought is insulation or sound dander for that car, also some paint to protect the floorpans, & major points where it could get rust, that would make it an awesome car/ restoration.

@lucythemoggy1970 5 лет назад

keep up the good work! i am restoring mine at the moment. i find doing bits in stages helps me a lot, so its not too overwhelming. can't wait to see ur next vid!

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

Awesome, thanks for watching. A staged approach is definitely the way to go. Cheers!

@Tommy_Poole 5 лет назад

Working on tidying up a Morris Minor engine bay. Exactly as annoying as I remember it. Good luck with it anyway. You’re doing a great job.

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

It seems never ending! Keep thinking you're almost done and the hours keep rolling with the last few bits. Cheers

@TheCowgirlNiamh 5 лет назад

Great job Jonathan! That's a full time job 😳 I don't think I'd have persisted as long as you with that tool lol I would have reached for a drill of hammer and chisel 🙈😂😂

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

Thanks Niamh. That tool was rubbish! There was plenty of hammer and chisel but left a lot of that out of the edit.

@paulmayou370 5 лет назад

She's gunna be sweet Johno...Don't lose any of those 5/16 UNF nuts and bolts mate...All the people I know who use spot weld drills buy dozens at a time...

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

It will take a while but should end up looking nice. I've bagged and tagged all the bolts. That particular spot weld drill was garbage. At 20 bucks a pop I'm not going to stock up

Stripping & Drilling. Is this a repair vid or a bedtime dream? lol

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

That does sound like a good bedtime dream. Sadly the video is about cars 🤣

more patients than me mate that useless spot drill would have been launched and ended up in next week hate it if it dosnt do what they say it does

@zoidberg444 5 лет назад

Binky eat your heart out. Can't believe someone sprayed that god awful green colour on that car. The original gray looks quite smart.

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

The grey is definitely much better. There's a Ford grey I'm thinking of going for that would suit it really well. Cheers mate

@RecordCouncil 5 лет назад

Putting that master cylinder in the frame rail was Issigonis taking the piss surely.

@Badgertronix 5 лет назад

It's a bit fiddly to get to but at least there's not much else in the way.

@RecordCouncil 5 лет назад

Admittedly it's only really painful when you have to get it out, the bolts come out on the torsion bar side and it has to be pulled out of the way or taken off to allow them to be removed.

Smoke grey, if it’s got a very light bluish tinge to it, Clarendon grey if it’s darker

Smoke grey looks closest to the original. I'm thinking of Ford Stealth Grey

@@Badgertronix It does look quite a bit greenish in daylight! Confused the heck out of me in the first few videos, especially because the interior and exterior paint don't match!
