Enjoy seeing Chris’s confidence in front of the camera now ! 👍
He's a knowledgeable chap, liked hearing some of that stuff about police work and his views on increased regulation in the salvage industry 👍
I just came here to say, "I remember when Chris was camera shy," and your comment was the very first !
Fantastic work chaps.
@@D2REA. he’s a very talented man, !
Was thinking the same. Back earlier in the life of this channel Chris was the man that never spoke. Thriving now. Great indepth explanations.👌
Calm clear precise explanations of what he's done and doing been watching from the start chris has come along way on camera simply brilliant at his craft 👏
How Comfortable is Chris now in front of the camera...soooo different from the early days...Chris and Rob you fella"s are the Bee"s Knees and bring serious amounts of Joy every video.
Hearing drilling with pink or brown ..where have I heard that before 😂😂…
😂😂😂😂
It's only waffle when people are talking crap or talking for the sake of it but when it is informative and interesting its well worth listening to. Chris is a mind field of interesting stuff and really knows what he is on about. You make a great team and are a pleasure to watch and I think I can safely say we all look forward to your video's. Great work guy's keep them coming 👍👍
Serious about salvage... now that bloke can waffle about nothing! More talk than fixing anything
Seriously, with his superlative skills, and his ability to communicate, Chris should consider taking on an apprentice. Passing on that knowledge and talent would be enormously satisfying.
It's great to see Chris so confident on camera and sharing his years of experience. Top work guys.
Always a privilege and a pleasure to see a craftsman at work
There should be an Alter at the door of the Workshop.
So any visitors can kneel down and worship and give praise to the Car Body God of all Gods,AKA Chris.
Hallelujah !
I absolutely love this channel 👍 even more, so when chris goes in depth i could listen to the waffle all day 😊 keep up the great work guys
It might be waffle but it's quality waffle 😁
It sure is 👍
Bloody hell Chris is such a bright guy, he’s just a master of metal.
Chris is a genius 👍 top bloke 😁
I remember the early days of the channel when Chris was too scared to show his face or speak on camera, now it seems as though Rob cant get a word in. 🤣🤣🤣
As always Chris makes it look easy, but many years of trial and error and experience mixed up in that, great job for a days work :-)
No waffling at all chaps, really enjoyed that half an hour in your company.
Well done guys, once again watching Chris work shows that there’s nothing like experience and attention to detail ,
Great video. I particularly enjoy Chris’s ‘waffle’ so keep it going. He’s a talented chap!
Aside from your trade skills you both are top notch storytellers. Thanks so much for sharing Gentlemen love the car too
Chris is a Metal Magician.... simple as.
Absolutely loved this series
I would happily spend a day watching Chris do this. I would also happily follow Rob for a day as he orders and collects parts and stuff for all the different builds all going on at the same time
That dozer is a handy bit of kit.👍🏻
When Chris spoke about vehicle inspections I think it would be better for everyone if salvage rebuilt cars were inspected. It would help decent shops build reputation and get all the cowboy garages black listed.
Chris seems to be in his happy place whenever there is some panel work to do.
You guys work to a really high standard, it’s so satisfying to watch!
Week off work and forgot it was Wednesday till this just popped up haha, let’s get stuck in
Top wafflin' chaps, well done 🤩
I love the way Chris works. Nothing is ever "that'll do", everything is always perfect when he has straightened it all back out again. Top man!
Chris the class act. That's what you call a good days graft. Well done and as usual guys thank you.
Hope Chris enjoyed his trip to Paris: he could have easily bumped into my brother and his family and never known it - they had a week in Euro Disney last week and were on one of the last direct trains home. The grandchildren loved it, apparently.
Cannot understand how the insurance just condemns the car for such dmg...no wonder insurance is expensive. Great work by chris there on the back and looking forward to further videos on this nice merc.
Great car ! Great job 👏🏾 Bring more of this to the channel
Another great job done today guys 👍🤓☘️🚗🚘
And yet another rear end repaired to Chris's exacting standards. It's not just the work but the speed he does it at. Lovely to watch. Cheers, Bob
Less is more! Fantastic technique. Nothing like an experienced eye. Great video!
PS - interesting comments on the history of car salvage industry re the checks and balances
I think I’ve been watching these two men for about five years, and Chris is allowing some of the real Chris to come out now. Great work boys.
Geez it's nice to see Chris on camera a bit more. The bloke is an encyclopaedia on mechanics.
I wouldn't say that it was waffle - more like you both were explaining things are done now and in the past. I was also say that it was interesting to hear.
Good work lads, keep them coming.
Not too much waffle at all, this is fantastic content!
Brilliant video and love the insight from Chris - particularly on the repair industry, if he ever wants to semi-retire he should be a consultant to the industry and regulatory bodies on how to improve the repairability of modern vehicles so that more can be put back on the road, rather than recycled and energy requirement to do so - top work!
Never get bored of watching Chris using the dozer, & the pair of you are always adding little useful tips & snippets 👍👍👍
Brilliant work on the A class Rob and Chris, love you and your work guys! :D
I find what you call waffle, interesting. If school taught subjects the way Chris explains what’s going on I’d of had a different career path. Keep the waffle and videos coming lads 👍
Waffle is good. Nice repair. A nice end to the day sat in the garden before I go off to work. Thanks fellas👍
Good evening Rob and Chris, thank you for taking the time to upload another video. As others have said, Chris is so much more confident now, he is a pleasure to listen to as, of course , your are. Ged.
Chris is a gene-arse!! So talented! I would imagine he’s very popular with his friends lol, especially if they need their cars repaired. Great episode Rob mate. Love the format and vocal explanations of the work carried out. Very much enjoyed this 👍🏼👍🏼
I think Chris need that holiday that’s the happiest I have seen him in a long time and lots of information given it this video like they used to be keep up the good work 👍
Chris. Is a master..... and explains how so well..... Great video
Nice to see an expert at work, with years of experience under his belt underselling his skill level or just modest but nice to watch.
Love how Chris just talks the job and takes it with a pinch of salt 🧂😂
The man's an artist 👏🏻👏🏻
It’s so nice to see a real master at work, he makes it look so easy but it’s not! Experience is the key.
proper real panel skills there ! not to many people like chris left and another cracking little car saved .
Chris (the most talented man I have ever had the pleasure of watching work) found his voice in Paris it seems...Big up to you too Rob... fantastic channel 💯👌
A pleasure to watch. Master craftsmen at work. Brilliant.
Nothing Chris ever says is waffle! It's all really useful info and insight!
Always superb but that was an exceptional video guys👏👏
love the way chris accepts all the new rules coming in.....its because he can do it and do it right......this man is so good words fail me
I found the explanation of the work involved very interesting, even though I'll never be doing anything like that myself!
Thats the way to do it Proper Job the wizard rides again nice one boys Crack on
I love watching Chris do bodywork, he's so methodical and laid back, but it always comes together.
Chris has a home time ! He's always working.
Nothing better than a good tugging by the dozer 😂 in all seriousness, you guys make this look easy and that's a credit to you both and your experience. What a cracking motor this will turn out to be 👌🏻
I could listen to Chris for hours. Great video, lads ✌️👍
The dozer isn't the machine! Chris is! It's so nice getting his explanation on stuff. No disrespect rob obviously. Love how this channel has evolved. Same as that car. Only as strong as the sum of its parts. Cheers boys.
Such informative content. Thank you guys 😊
Hi Rob. Chris 's explanation of the repair process is impeccable . With 53 years experience this would be "ad verbatum" how l would explain the repair process . I couldn't actually see the grips as the film was on fast foward but l think they are probably "fish tail " mole grips . Regarding the V. I. C check l'm proud to say that when l took my repair to be scrutinized . The inspector came out and said " There's only one person who could have repaired this and that's John Davey !". I had no idea who he was and he had no idea who l was in person but it was a super feeling ! Chris would comfortably fill my boots ! Thanks Guys
Not to many people around with Chris & Robs experience. Great video lads 👍👍👍
Nice to have another informative lecture from Professor Chris. :) Love the hands on stuff but love the school stuff too. Fantastic. :)
Great video guys Chris is the master of panel work with out a doubt and Rob love your voice overs
Makes you aware why car insurance is so high. Great job again by Chris to get this Merc on the road to being repaired.
I think guy's your videos should be used in Trade schools. They would help the student's visualise the repairs, Helping the teacher's so much. Again, great video. Thumb's up.
Good idea
I’m so impressed with Chris and his knowledge in these repairs , really top class stuff . I just had someone reverse their transit van into the front of my 68 plate Nissan leaf , it was a Big Crunch sound but not much damage to see but the local Nissan repair centre just quoted 4k to put it right . Thankfully they admitted full liability so it’s covered by their insurance.
Great to see people enjoying what they done 👍👍👍
Another great video, lads. And many thanks for the clear explanations, especially from Chris. This channel just gets better and better - roll on the 300k subscribers!👍
It was an educational waffle so we'll let you off. Seriously though excellent video great insight into the work Chris does and has done.👏👏👏
Liking the ‘Talk Through’ in the videos Rob… You do it well 👍🏻 Nice to see another A Class, I’m currently after an A200 AMG Line myself with premium pack.
Another super video form the "2 minutes past 10 workshop". Chris and his magic. Thanks guys. 😉
Chris has some talent,great job guys 👍
Well, in from work Chicken Tikka, Pilau rice, onion bhajee, 440ml can of Stella, and half an hour of Rob and Chris 😂 Living the dream 😊, seriously though, great entertainment chaps 👍
chris hasnt half got better at explaining eveything to us amateurs, you have definetly gone from car guys to computer guys well and truly now lads, great content!👍👍👍
Got home early, boom the boys have another video 👌👌👊
Knowledgeable people like Chris are a dying breed 😊
Loving the talk over the time lapse parts , videos were always great this just makes them much better . The Knowledge that Chris has is unreal . Well done lads looking forward to next video .
When I watch you two at work and the care that goes into your repairs it makes me realise just how much I am getting messed about by the garage that doesn't seem to want to repair my car - after seven weeks. I'm keeping the comment very polite, trust me!!
makes a hard job look easy , would have no hesitation buying from them
Absolutely love the voice over on the time lapse smashing video as always 👍
Superb work Guys. Chris is the man, once again!
Top work as always guys 💪 Chris is deffo getting used to the camera you can tell he loves what he does
Love the attention to detail..you guys do it right!👍🇬🇧
Interesting to watch the whole thing come back into shape and the test bolts slot straight in, very nice.The spot weld drilling is the most tedious bit for the person doing it but well worth the effort. Thanks Rob and Chris for another video. 👍👍
Chris is literally a wealth of knowledge
Don’t cut the chattering Rob, that was a mighty good video - a Chris master class.
Just a little bit of background to modern adhesives. The Space Shuttle exterior insulating tiles were held on with bathroom sealant! Imagine the budget NASA had to find the right glue and given the critical nature of the tiles speaks volumes about modern adhesives imho 😉
Top job chaps. Way better than T.V.
Love the knowledge and experience that Chris has. He explains every detail of the process in such a way that an idiot like me can understand it.🥴
Well done lads 👍
Cracking video as usual and your expertise makes it look so easy! 👍👍👍
Never to much waffle, still missing the Monday waffle, the legend knocks it out of the park again. Great video, could listen to your stories for hours.
That was a great video Lads, well done, very informative,the buzz watching you pull the back panel,and the quarter panel going back into shape was a great bit of camera work,it's going to be a nice little Merc when done,keep them coming, thanks 👍🇮🇪
Highlight of my YT week✊Greetings from Johannesburg.
Love the Chris comment “when you’re drilling you can go into the pink or go a bit further maybe hit the brown……” 😮😮
LOL
Maybe he was watching snooker 😂😂
😂😂😂
Well done gentlemen. Always great to watch, and a great way to unwind at the end of the day.
cracking video - thankyou both
