Nicely done! Great metal working. No wonder you're pleased! I love the pic of your old hood.

The KZfaq algorithm hasn’t helped you yet. I’ve done my part. Subscribed !

Hats of to you sir and whoever raised you.

No underestimating the chore that getting that black nasty insulation out is. Lots of hard work, but with judicious editing, you made it look easy! GREAT job, beautiful metal work. I love those hand fabbed pieces.

Fantastic work! I have a US model 1976 20002 so it was especially interesting to see the disassembly. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing job, congratulations!

awesome content man! You inspired me to start my own channel after I watched your E9 roundtrip video. Now I own a bmw 2002 and planning to take it to road trips :)

Wow pretty impressive metal fab work. I always enjoy watching metal work done right. Excellent job keep it up.

You are super talented. Well done!

I love it, hope you get way more following, you definitely deserve it! I like your welding, looks very tidy.

just found you channel and Iam impressed how good the videos are :O excellent !

Wow, I am a professional Boatbuilder and also did some welding, but this kind of metall work was unknown to me. Looks awesome!

Beautiful work!

Great editing . Very inspiring work.

Wow David!! Excellent work! I’m looking forward to more work on this 02!

Extremely well done! This bimmer deserved it! My experience with sunroofs: once I had a 1986 e30 with sunroof.... BTW it had water trapped somewhere into the chassis. Every time I had to park uphill or downhill I could hear water flushing. Not nice. I made sure not to buy another sunroof car since. Fun fact is, usually sellers take extra pride and charge extra money for a sunroof LOL! For someone it can be a nice extra, but in the long run not worth the hassle, if you ask me.

Nice work David.. Just about to tackle similar rust issue on my 2002.. Super helpful / informative episode. Keep them coming!

Great work, I enjoyed watching your expertise! Good day sense of humor too!

Great job! Every video of you is very fun to watch. Can't wait for the next one.

very nicely done!!

Nice work!

Beautiful work. I have a '73 that is going to need some of this surgery and am watching your videos closely for tips...

Thank you for the video..keep up the amazing work

Impressed that’s for sure

Simply "WOW!"

Just discovered your channel. Amazing videos and amazing welding skills. (y)

Great vid, just found your channel. I'm doing a full resto on a 74" myself.

Thank you for sharing!

Exelente, saludos desde Uruguay.

Looks great dude! I'm "looking forward" to doing the same on mine...plus a few dozen other patches. It was nice to get an x-ray preview of what lays ahead. I also like the way you shot and edited this. I may have to borrow some of those techniques for my channel.

Nice dude

Hell of a fabricator!

Dave nicely executed. It would be interesting to see how you worked the compound bend patches as well. As for the body Shultz, I think Wurtz is the best and most factory, but you probably know that. Good job.

This channel, this repair and this channel should have way more views than what it has! You did amazing work on this! Keep up the good work!! Let's go #youtube promote this guy more he's doing awesome work! Keep it up

Awesome

Awesome job mate, whens the next video on the 2002?

Brilliant work. Very well done👍. The result is impressive. Would there be a way to route the drain hose differently in order to prevent the corners from rusting, even in if takes 45 years 😉?

You have a great way to explain your work. I was hoping to find out how you separate the fender from the welded part at the nose of the car. Do you just cut it off?

David I am super impressed at your skills. I have 76 2002 also, that's how I found your channel. How long have you been doing metal work? Also that Taiga is the best color.

Epic! Please do a video on how you go about shaping the metal. Also what was that copper looking spray you used?

This Swedish person does awesome work! So inspiring!

Show us how you created the pieces ( molding/ shaping) please, I am looking to repair some of the rusts myself on my 2002.

Great work David. Do you this kind of work for a living?

I’m keen to know which tools you used for shaping the sheet metal? PS I’m about to purchase a 2002 touring project car in need of full restoration Satisfying video to watch 😎👍

What sorts of tools do you use to shape the metal? I saw you have a sort of round-topped tool that you use for some of the shaping. I'm curious most about the rounded bends especially. I'm guessing some kind of pneumatic stamping tool?

Great work, I’m starting to dive into the rust on my ‘76. What did you use to get the factory colored undercoating?

Very nice work. I am curious though. Is it easy to find a new window seal since you cut the old one?

What you using for undercoating? Looks alot like roofing tar

Nice work David! I'm wondering why you needed to remove the dash for this repair? Was it just to give you more room to work?

What is the thickness of the sheet metal panel you use?

do you take on work from other people?

please use plenty of cavity wax, in the cavities
