Videos of restoration of P1800 making new panels!
Hi all,
I was altered to these guys working on the restoration of a P1800 in Poland on the 1800 list. Fantastic workmanship and great to watch. All panels appear to be hand made! I particularly like "Making parts for Volvo 2".

He's been a busy chap
I was most amused by the ever changing hair styles through out the project and that arc-eye resistant dog...

I'm pretty new around here but this fellow in Poland has been the latest inspiration for my 1800 project. His work is simply amazing. If you, or anyone else is interested, OTT has recently posted a new Part 6 video on YouTube... VOLVO P1800 Restoration Part 6 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D55moiYQDCU ZT |

There's still a few highly skilled metal shaping guys in England, Geoff Moss of MPH motor panels and David Gardiner of Classic Metal Shaping are in another league to your average car restorer. If you want high end work these are the guys to check out.

I hadn't seen any of either of their videos before but will be checking out more of them. I especially liked watching and listening to Mr. Moss as he reminded me of one of my earliest mentors... including the ever present cigarette... lit or not... as he works! Thanks again for the tip! ZT |
