vTuned showing us once again that he is man enough to call it when a repair isn't working out instead of forcing it. That is why his repairs are a cut above.

Nice to know you really care about the integrity of your repairs, yes you could have kept going but admitting it was not working as planned is priceless!

Damn Ben, for someone who says he hates doing bodywork, you sure are good at it! Your attention to detail is amazing. I could watch you work all day. (The truth is that I prefer watching *other* people work instead of me doing it.) Anyway, great video - I'm sure that Mustang will turn out as beautiful as all of your projects.

Master at work🤗 love you're work/videos. Glad you and you're wife are better 🙌🙌

Dent pulling is so satisfying to watch. Garage floor was worth that upgrade. Great job.

21:36 that little fur ball... what a beautiful kitten you got right there!!

Hey VTuned! Even though you hate body work so much, you make it look so easy! You do an amazing job fixing cars!! It's a fine art that only a select few are really good at and you are one of them! Thanks for the tips and tricks! Keep the content coming!

Making good progress. Watching from Queensland Australia.

Welcome Back Ben, It's nice to see you working on the Mustang again.

The Champ is here

The amount of integrity you have to be able to throw away a hood you just spent a bunch of time on is amazing. Keep up the great work!! you’re killing it

I have been watching you for years. Constantly amazed by your talent Ben.

Dude, I absolutely love your content! You and Yuri are seriously how every shop should be, honest and not cutting corners!! Look forward to each and every upload!

You may hate bodywork, but IMO your damn good at it.

Ben, I appreciate your commitment to doing quality work. Lots of body shops don't uphold your high standards. Keep up the great work.

I am so fascinated watching you bring these machines back to life. Love it!

That is honesty to himself and professionalism glad you are back .

Just glad you are wearing your PPE gear. You've got many more years of content to entertain us with.

Ben is the Picasso of body repair the master,always great content great job on the video as always,👍👍👍

Nice to see vtune that he is a men off his words doing a good job like always love ur channel

Excellent to see panels being worked on professionally, top work so many people don't give a toss great work

6.27 that roof metal looks so soft to work with! Always enjoyable to watch, thanks!

Awesomely done Ben. Take care.

Hi Ben your cat needs some love dude’s 😂😂

Awesome work Ben…. Love this channel 👊

love your work..happy to watch whenever you can post nothing more important than your health and to support your wife

Definately was waiting for your vid. Stay healthy and produce more content

Ben's artistry is stuff of legends. He is a true sculptor.

Maaan it’s always awesome to see a new vtuned video 🤘🏽

I love watching you take something that looks so bad it can't be fixed and your talent to rework the metal back to its original spot with little filler. Great work!

I was waiting too much for your video ❤

Always impressed with your skill set and honesty. Hood was looking good. But in the end you made the right call. A new hood is the way to go. Great progress on this project for sure.

Impressive work 👍👍

Glad to hear you and your wife are feeling better!

Welcome back vtune you need to make more video keep up the good work

Nice work in this episode, those body lines take a lot of work.

Excelente trabajo, l importante es que se cuidaron, ahora están recuperados, felicidades 🙏🙏🙏

Great Job man!💪🏻👍🏻

Hi Ben, It’s for me always amazing to see how you are able to fix wrecked cars and also this Ford Mustang GT will look absolutely beautiful when you’re finished with the refit. I look forward to your next vlog and send you love from the Netherlands

Love the built. Let’s go B.

Really enjoy your channel Ben you do excellent work great attention to detail

Great work Ben! Even with all of the time, and effort you spent trying to fix that hood, you knew it wasn't going to be up to your standards. You take a lot of pride in your work, and it shows.

This dude is an artist.

Skills upon skills!

Hi Ben, as a follower of your channel I have noticed the obvious skills you have with bodywork, you are a perfectionist. Seems that it runs in your family Yuri, Paul for instance. Keep doing wot you do and stay safe. Watching from the UK 👍 Peace.

Nice work 👍🏻

The car is looking good vtuned good try on the hood and the rest of the body work is on point keep up the great job love watching your videos

Welcome back Tunes

Great stuff thanks

Ben the best, nice body work!

Welcome back bro , long time 😊

14:30 what da cat doin ?

Respect to you for calling it Quits Bro.. some shops would have just let it slide by.

I wish people that do bodywork care as much as you do Ben. You value your integrity and quality of work. That is why we watch you. keep it up and the Shop Cat is adorable.

Happy days. Hope feel better now. 👍🏻🇬🇧

Ben can I suggest that you need to use a shop vac when blocking the bondo and glaze this will keep your shop much cleaner and eventually keep The paintwork cleaner to beep up the great work.

It was one thing to even tackle repairing the lid, it was impressive as to how close you came and even more impressive that you didn't think it good enough and cut your loses; most people having got so far and so close would have settled for it being "close enough".

That’s the name of the game. Need to know when to quit. Respect! Didn’t take the easy way out and kick the problem down the road!

Glad to see you are willing to do the right thing with that hood instead of rushing it. I'm sure many shops would have been fine with using it the way it was.

Bro is so clean with his work mashallah!

Keep it up , and pist video more often Ben.God bless

nice one v good work shame about the bonnet .

@14:37 that’s why instead of putting straight bondo on first I’ve either used ankle hair fiberglass or duraglass than bondo, it’s sturdier.. but I commend you in showing us that your man enough to call it quits when the repair isn’t working to your expectations…awesome work .

The cat is a nice touch to the vids

My man VTuned hooking us up with a new vid as the Goonz have gone AWOL

Nice work

Your video production skills are getting really good 👍

According to the cat scan everything looks ok! Thanks Ben

good job ! but be careful you are getting bigger and bigger dude

Respect Ben, replacing the hood 👍 would've been so easy to "hide" the cracks. Quality job by a quality guy.

This is what I love about your channel, vTuned. If your repairs aren't perfect, you tell us why and then replace the parts. You are a true professional. Thanks and we'll see you next time.

Glad you'r not acting like Mat Armstrong, love your honesty. Wish you the best luck.

Vinnie you have “the eye” that sees where the compression epicentre actually is. That is your gift…

Nice job

Doing that metal repair takes skill and patience. Two things I don't have. Nice job.

tnx for the vidio

I wondered what happened. Glad both you and your wifey are better. Same happened to us 😅

new cat is sleeping on flooth

You need a dust/air filtration/extraction system. Both for your health and to keep the workshop clean. There is a reason most body shops aren't painted black, they show dust!

Ben...telling us about future "cracks" in the hood..kitty..licking her "crack"..lol. at least your honest with your repairs unlike some other shops out there...keep up the honesty and the vids!!

At least you tried to repair that hood excellent effort, I would have completely spazed out and jumped on it.

I like your Videos

Awesome

Yeah! Just in time for the mustang's birthday 🎉🎂🐎

I believe in spraying an epoxy-primer on the bare metal before adding the body filler.

The color on the parts is called Vapor Blue. Looking good, I've got a 2024 GT in the same color, atlas blue and it's awesome.

Just clean that hood and hang it on the wall . That would look sweet hanging on the wall with your BMW sign. Keep up the great work and God Bless.

KZfaq top car

sitting here watching you wearing my vtuned Mustang tee shirt. Love your work my man. Glad you and your wife are over the crud and are feeling better. Curious on what are your thoughts on going with an aftermarket hood like a Cervanis vs the OEM, is that something you'd consider?

Hello Ben vtuned Garage body work 2024 ford mustang gt very good job on car and Ben and wife get well hope better soon fan be happy back on KZfaq channel make video for fans watching on KZfaq channel I love like support and number one ☝️

Thx Ben glad you and the wife are ok great work as usual thx again.

You may want to invest in a festool system for sanding.

take care

Use fiberglass with epoxy on the hood crack might help

Am taking my Genesis Coupe to you're shop.

Tuned, I've learned so much from watching you work. What happened to the shop kitty, I miss seeing it.

Would have loved to see the aluminum welding as you did it. Even if its not perfect this is one thing I want to learn.

Happiness of a cheap repair ends when it comes back to BITE YOU! Good call. You can sleep well knowing this one is done right!

I feel bad for that ol mustang in the back just rotting away in the parking lot

Nice
