    That little Spitfire is literally “A Triumph”, in every sense. What a stunner it turned out to be. Great job, Ben, she’s a beauty, you should be VERY proud.

      Thanks Kevin, I love it.

      Sometimes you as rough as a bears arse the way you do things but it works.
      Got to say that motor is stunning, really nice paint job. You should be really proud what you've achieved Ben, very nice, I look forward to the next one.

  • @MrMarksdaniels
    @MrMarksdaniels Před 18 dny +19

    The best compliment I can give, is to say that it looks like someone bought the triumph name and produced a modern version of the classic spitfire. Nice one Ben.

    @danvonranger Před 18 dny +6

    The timing on this could not be better. I just looked out of the window intending to go for a walk, and as per usual in the UK it's raining. Checked YT to see if anyone had added an upload and found part 3, and it's a decent length too. Thanks for making my afternoon, you sir are a star.

      To Andy B
      Yes, the change of colour - and the fact thatbit is metallic - has TRANSFORMED it!

    Spent a day or two catching up on this series, what a remarkable tranformation on this jumble of a project. Love the colour, love the roof, doubt a single one left the factory looking as good as this absolute stunner. Hats off to you Ben!

    I'm always keen to keep my classic car standard, but I have to say the Spitfire looks a little gem. It's a gorgeous colour which suits it well with the new soft top. Loved this series.

    My hands and back hurts, just by watching this series 🫣 great job, Ben! So many good decisions🎉 She's gorgeous! (I loved the pub outro with Rob. Maybe, you could do a little reaction video for the patreons with Dickie or your mum❤)

  • @stevepearce1913
    @stevepearce1913 Před 18 dny +3

    By far and away your best ever car! The colour almost de-ages the Spitfire and makes it look brand new. Can't wait for an engine refurb and dress up and I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up a keeper!

    @roberthocking9138 Před 18 dny +10

    You may have invented a new thing, “ wet polishing” great job 😁. I hope all the money and work you have put in gives a small profit when you sell it. It looks amazing. Painting metallic, in a shed with basic tools, is an amazing feat.

    Hats off to you Ben, really enjoyed this series of videos. Great to see a restoration in the real world, mistakes and all. The car looks fantastic, you should be really proud of yourself. I think you should do the engine detail video as well. Well done👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

  • @nigelchapman6211
    @nigelchapman6211 Před 18 dny +2

    Used to have a red spitfire mk3. (Or rather my wife did). Loved it, but baby forced reluctant sale back in 1984. 40 years on and I doubt I would be able to get out of a spitfire without crawling out on hands and knees. What an awesome watch. Absolutely right about the colour choice, it’s just amazing, a real head turning car. I love it!

  • @marktoby8113

    VERY nice job! - but it still drifts round corners just like a Spitfire. 😊 (I used to have one!). A cream interior would really make it look awesome.

  • @dreammaker730
    @dreammaker730 Před 17 dny

    Surely one of the nicest spitfires ive seen .

  • @TR4zest
    @TR4zest Před 18 dny

    I have been told, in my limited spray paint collection of works, a 'run' is a single drip that runs down a surface. What you are tackling first is a 'curtain', where a wide area of paint falls over a surface, and it looks a bit like the bottom of a curtain. What a result! The Spittie looks beautiful.

      To supplementkingbrand.
      ACTUALLY, having seen the glorious cream hood, later in the video, I think that's enough.
      The hood contrasts with the nice colour of the paint. BUT the black upholstery looks nice anyway, with those smart new black carpets!
