Amazing. The part 2 video shows what a great craftsman this guy is, and that you can bring pretty much anything back to life!

Perfect candidate for a new Kilmartin chassis frame . It just doesn't make sense to repair the original one like he has , its just too compromised by rust. A lot of nice work otherwise. He will regret that decision down the road.

That's pretty incredible. I'm not sure many would have the inclination and skills to bring one back that seems that far gone.

:iagree: Lots of talent there-:applause:

Yes, that guy deserved a lot of credit. Compared to what he started with, mine almost looks easy (Famous last words...) I also have to credit his drive. I'm not sure that I have that much ambition, and I don't know how he has not just burned out!

Kinda remonds me of my 62 Tri-Carb project except the frame on mine was worse and definately wasnt slavagable .
He is a true craftsman and what he is doing is true restoration in my opinion .

Something about his breezy before-and-after presentation on everything from frame rail repair to distributor rebuild makes it so quick and easy. "Hey, check out a couple photos I took during the few days the car was in my shop."
