In this episode of Restore It, I remove a lot of trim from the touring in preparation for the pain preparation. I also remove the rust from the upper body panels and the front and rear bumpers and sand the old paint with SP600 sanding pads.

Coming from a low budget guy. I would definitely restore the front valance. You have the skills already. Yes it's more work, but that just means more content. Content that I would watcj

@nathanwright8598 12 дней назад

I agree. It’s not that bad. He has restored far worse. The valance wouldn’t take that long.

One of the reasons i love your vids, is that you show things how they really are! It feels like, for a lot of youtubers, everything just sort of works or goes well for them. However whenever i try and do a job on my car it's full of rusted bolts, stuck fittings, snapped pieces etc.... etc... and yours are some of the only vids when it feels like you're actually working on a real car and not some show room fresh car that's been made to look a little old.

Steven you’re making great progress so don’t worry about the many issues, they’re inevitable with projects of this scope!! Just remember what your work was like before that powerful air compressor and higher quality equipment!!! 😂 I’d definitely just replace that front bumper assembly. The time it would’ve taken to repair it could be better used elsewhere on the car, IMO

@RestoreIt 12 дней назад

Thanks, Michael! And don't remind me! Its tough enough with the new equipment, I don't know how I use to cope! I'm leaning on the side of replacing it, I think you're right.

@bobfrankish8883 12 дней назад

Hi Steve, great to see you back at it again. Listen, I'm sure I'm not going to be able to tell you that much, but I'm on my 3rd old BMW restoration and have definitely learnt the hard way. That car is way off being ready for paint yet. The bits of rust you refer to as surface where the panels overlap at the bottom of the B pillar and sills aren't, the rust is coming from underneath the overlap. Unless you un-stitch everything, which is obviously major work, rust will be back again quite quickly. The valance is repairable but not easy because of the curves involved, I assume a replacement would be aftermarket to be affordable. If so, there will undoubtedly be fitment issues to get over. Watching Yorkshire Car Restoration YT channel would be a good bet for you, you will see exactly what you are up against for the sill, floor and jacking point repairs. Other than that, we are all busting to see your journey on this project, who doesn't like an E30?!

@RestoreIt 12 дней назад

Hey Bob, thanks for the feedback. Don't worry, I have no intentions of painting the car now, or any time soon. There is a huge list of things to do before I get to that, I just wanted to take a break from the mass of welding that is required, and after speaking with the painter, it was another job to do. My plan is to "finish" the topside of the car and everything inside before I start work on the bottom of the car, which includes the sills. There is a possibility that the front valance will come from a company similar to E30 Garage Norway, and therefore fitment shouldn't be so much of an issue. Thanks again for a great comment!

The thin parished rubber strips on the sills are to superimpose the plastic sill covers, so they wouldn't rub on / through the paint on driving vibrations. So def. recommended to replace them again... 👍🏻

@MrBlaadieblaa 12 дней назад

The black rubbery strip along yhe sills used to be double sided tape that is originally used to hold the skirts (besides the clips) close to the body. The caulk at the left rear vent behind the bumper was added by someone at some stage to stop water from leaking in. I suggest you place the vents back with proper nautical caulk as these vents often leak and cause rust in the side pockets.

@michaelskinner896 12 дней назад

@TerrybleGamer День назад

18:57 - If you meant the air vent, this is here so it can release air pressure when you close the trunk lid. I don't know why there is some type of gasket there tho.

@Dennis-eh2vx 12 дней назад

I think the rubber strips are on your sills to protect them against the hard, possibly scratching action of your side skirts, which could otherwise damage the paint and cause rust underneath them and on the sills

One issue that is always a pain is keeping track of all the fastenings, nuts & bolts or small parts that you have to strip. I seem to remember that you were very methodical about this in Spain. How are you dealing with it here?

@RestoreIt 12 дней назад

True, its ticky. I'm using 500ml clear plastic tubs with lids and labels. This seems to work well for most small parts like that.

@jeffk7017 12 дней назад

Steve, I’m been following along and I really enjoy the videos. One question I have is about prepping for paint when you still have a fair amount of rust, trim, and windows to be dealt with. I don’t do this kind of work so it’s all new to me but I’m curious why you wouldn’t completely strip the car down and address the rust first before doing paint prep?

@RestoreIt 12 дней назад

Hey Jeff, thanks for the comment, I've done it, just to tick if off the list. I wanted to take a break from the welding and this was just one of the jobs I could have done. Cheers!

@jeffhammond8969 13 дней назад

Are you going to remove all the glass? With so much other effort being put into it, it would be a shame to not do a glass out repaint.

@RestoreIt 12 дней назад

What is that strange radiator shroud in front of the radiator, I've never seen this type before on any e30?

@Filippulya 9 дней назад

17:44 Use Super Lock (SL) socket head - it's better and safer for hexagonal bolts. And please DO NOT use a ratchet wrench to remove rusty fasteners, they are not designed for such loads and can easily break. Instead use Drive Breaker\ Power Bar and then ratchet wrench. I wouldn't want your tools to break.

@RestoreIt 12 дней назад

I used 5 discs in total, but I think I could have gotten away with 3 or 4. Thats the first time I've DA'd a car like that so I was unsure how long to use a single disc for. I might have been able to do it with one, I'm not sure.

Hey Dominik, thank you for the honest feedback. I totally get where you're coming from. As a content creator, I rely on sponsorships to support my channel. However, I get that promoting online casinos, even free to play ones like Jackpot World can be a sensitive topic. In this case I didn't have any other option but to accept the offer from the brand. The eye injury and the tooth surgery resulted in me falling behind, when I was already nowhere near where I wanted to be in terms of putting out content. As the bills never stop, as well as the needing to cover the costs of making the episodes and running the channel. I had to take the sponsor. It's not ideal, but my short term plan is move away from brand deals and fund the channel through other means, like Raffall and Patreon. I hope you can understand, Cheers.
