Win your dream car with 15% off all tickets for this weekend only! - bit.ly/Win-A-Modern-Classic

@danielyoung6954 2 года назад

The thing is it’s not 15% off tho because they will just up the amount of tickets available so they still make there money wich means the odds become worse for the consumer

@martinsmusic2223 2 года назад

@@danielyoung6954 Exactly, so why enter the competition this weekend when entry levels may be signiificantly higher than usual if advertised on a 41K viewed video? I can see the logic in advertising it here though as Rob and Chris get to buy the salvage from the muppets who tank their prizes within weeks of getting behind the wheel. It all make sense now.

Most people would have just given the filler a quick rub down, not Chris " I want to see what's going on behind it Rob" he make the cars as good as if he was keeping it for him self, he is one in a million!! Love the wheels Rob. 👍😁😍

@TheGrimSleeper7 2 года назад

Watching and listening to Chris with his little bits of narration is like watching an Open University programme. Great stuff all round 👏👏👏

Rob and Chris we will always support you guys channel, you are the biggest channel in the UK as far as I'm concerned, I heap plenty of praise on you in Ireland 🇮🇪 and a few of my friends watch your shows every week, and I hope someday we do business together because I would trust you more than an official dealer 👍👍

Chris is an artist - I love watching him work

@organiccold 2 года назад

The RS is turning into a gem. Those wheels look great, as always Rob you're very good sourcing parts and mechanic stuff like that and Chris is good with the body work. Chris,i had grow up in a body repair shop so i can say with all certain its good to see someone doing things right and be proud in the jobe they doing. Keep the good work guys.

@darthgardner 2 года назад

Chris really knows his stuff he knocks out any dent..fills panels which are not always just flat and can make any sows ear bodywork look like a silkpurse. btw the first part of the video was quite shocking on audio and seemed a bit out of wack,but then when you got onto the main video it was ok maybe that phone update was the issue there which you explained later on👍

@steveegginton535 2 года назад

Chris's skills at fixing bodywork are so impressive - nothing left to chance and a great job as always. Really getting there with this one now - looing forward to the "will it run" video

@trevorjarvis3021 2 года назад

Absolutely brilliant video Rob - the RS looks simply stunning. Watching Chris work his magic on that back quarter was fantastic, it’s all in the preparation - the paint shop must be well pleased receiving a car from you because they know it been so properly done! Lovely to see the flames in the old wood burner crackling away in the background. Excellent. 😊👍

@Jim_M_75 2 года назад

Only watched you two for a couple of months now but must say I love this channel. Honestly respect the level of workmanship that goes into repairing the cars, RU-vid is full of people bodging crap together but you try to do every repair to a top level.

@skodakatie7341 2 года назад

@thefloorkiller 2 года назад

Loving this Escort, Chris worked his magic with that rear quarter, the wheels look fantastic, it's worth getting this car mint, hope you can find or repair the roof lining it looked quite ripply when you were sat in the car, because it's worth it that interior is scrubbing up nicely

@Martinnc30 2 года назад

First car i drove after passing my test in 2008 at 19 was my brothers K Reg convertible in red with a RS2000 engine swap had recaro seats big wing type , it went like stink but didn't stop still had the 1.4 1.6 original brakes.... Keep up the great work guys even a shout out to the painter ,Thanks for everything you do, saving cars one at a time !

Rob, Chris, so glad you are building this RS up. It is stunning, you could have just flipped it but man are we glad you didn't.

@DogsInFremont 2 года назад

I am amazed by Chris’ skills in the bodywork. I believe you mentioned that he used to do that as a day job, but regardless I appreciate workmanship and that looked like a thing of beauty to me. Keep them videos coming. I always look forward to them.

Loved watching Chris work his magic on the rear quarter and even thought about the fuel filler and the ring as well most body shops would have left that. The sound was perfect on the video Rob I think you have cured the problem. When are we getting the R/R back on the screen Rob can’t wait to see it finished. Stay lucky Rob & Chris thank you both for the video. Tom 😃. Hartlepool

@andywakefield9826 2 года назад

Turning out really well that. I don't think you can lose even having more paint done. Was also good seeing Chris doing a bit more and getting a bit more comfortable with this side of things. I'm also going to say the st is the one in for paint. And the one Chris was busy with was possibly the Merc

@stephenricketts7764 2 года назад

Very good so far. They have done a good job in the wheels. In the last video on this I was about to suggest you knock back the filler so you can see what it's like underneath. I stopped myself because I knew Chris being a professional would do it without me telling him. I am pleased that it all looked OK and now with most of the paint done it is coming on nicely. Some way to go yet but thanks again Rob and Chris for a great video. Have a good weekend Gents. Oh and do be careful in the storm! 👍👍

@trainmanbob 2 года назад

Superb work guys. An absolute pleasure to watch and learn. Chris's ability with a piece of wet and dry after his filler work is some of the best work I think I have ever seen. One thing disturbs me though Rob...you are recognised as the King of Waffle so what is this new phrase...rambling on? 😀🤔 Thanks again for the great entertainment. Cheers, Bob

@bryanneighbour6978 2 года назад

Loving watching the work you're putting into this one boys. Blokes like myself who grew up driving Ford's will always have a sort spot for them so to see you take so much pride in your work is great to see. Especially with this one. What a find.

@georgedaville4662 2 года назад

I remember when the Mk5 RS2000 came out, they were a rare car and very expensive new. Interior is set off by the Recaros. The engine is the I4 unit which Ford put in the Sierra and Scorpio of the time. The RS unit was tweaked by the guys at Ford Motorsport though. This is shaping up to be another beauty, can’t wait to hear it running.😎🇬🇧👍

@robsrcjourney970 2 года назад

Love the work your both doing. You need too stop explaining what your doing Rob against what Chris is doing mate. Your both grafters and we can all see that... Love watching Chris do his magic on bodywork and his quick explanation on what's happening. Either way, your both a great team and I'm sure all your watches would agree that you both work hard and give us great videos too watch. 👍👍👍

@tomtodhunter1776 2 года назад

I really expected there to be no arch under that filler. I remember it was the place a lot of 90s cars loved to rot out. The wheels are stunning I'd love to see a video on them being refurbished. Love the paint job. It looks good without the rubbing strips.
