Best video in ages! Nicely done. It looked much less damaged than it could have been

Hi Phil whenever you pull a metal use a hammer while under tention to destress the metal. Grate job

Nice motor , good point about a wee bit of PPE for your own longevity mate . Look forward to seeing the beauty progressing . 👌

Pulled that out lovely Phil. Amazing what can be achieved with the dozer . Great job!

Finished the grinding and I've got two lungs like breeze blocks 😱

Hi mate,it's better if u feather out the grinded areas before filler.also,rubbing down filler isn't easy with a da.it can be done,but takes many years of practice.i advise using a small block and guide coats until u feel confident to repair without.you will get there eventually.it gets to a stage where u can almost see a repair is right without feeling it.also,3 good coats of 2k high build primer with a gun is always better.hope this helps.

Enjoyed this Phil, coming along nicely, looking forward to the paint job 👍

Great to see some body panel work. Looking forward to seeing this completed 😀

Great work Phil, I really enjoyed watching this, it was interesting to see the dozer at work😊.

Interesting content Phil looking forward to an update on this project

Your best video for a long while,really enjoyed it 👍

Loving this new bodywork and painting content 👌👌

Nice job Phil like the longer videos looking forward to seeing the next one

Great video…good camera location for the pull 👍

Well done Phil you've done a great job of pulling that out 👍👍

cracking job for a novice .Well do Phil .I enjoy watching your videos .

Nice surgery Dr. Phil!! Good job, a couple more pulls and you will become great!!

Get some decent primer Phil lad. Not home bargain crap 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Runs to the comments to see what all the ‘arm chair panel beaters’ have to say 😂

Nice job Phil 👍👍

Well done Phil. Got that looking great pal. As a side note for your own health and well being, ppe is a good thing 👍

Hi Phil - really nice job pulling out that door shut area. I was a bit concerned that you didn't wear a mask when doing the sanding.

excellent job and the secret is patience

Excellent pulling skills 10 out of 10.

Another great video 👍👍

really good job phil

I think the service history is all stored on the key and/or the car itself, they don't use books any more. Also, disconnect / reconnect the battery to reset the fuel gauge - mine stopped working and it just needed reset like that.

Great job phil, pity you could not find another mini with total body damage then you could have the engine for your shop ornament in the corner lol good to see you on form back to yourself. Thanks for the video phil take care. Tom

That was a pretty intense crease to the door sill for someone new to doing jig work. You should be pleased of the results Phil and yourself. Best way too learn just get on the tools mate 👍

Brilliant job Phil. Please wear a proper mask when sanding. Lucky friend having you sort out his career 👍

Like the longer videos.

Looks good mate,,,,, not sure if you have seen some other body techs take like a profile guage and use it opposite to help them get it right,,,,, deffo the hardest body repair you have got into, besides the R32 learning curve. 10 out of 10

Great job happy days.

Just put colour on the bottom of the panel and then clear all the panel will blend in far better you need to sand well out over the grinder marks and get yourself some final glaze it will fill in all the wee imperfections fair play to you for trying it's the only way you will learn can't wait to see the finished job good luck

Great video Phil its coming along nicely

Hi Phil, modern minis and BM’s have the service history stored in the on board computer rather than a paper book. Might be worth a look.

Phil, When you unclipped the cover I thought... "Not as bad as first thought" and then you said pretty much the same. Not a fan of "elephant minis" as I call these but I could go for one of those. good work... Bob (Weston super Mare).... Now I will finish watching....

Very cool I own the same model jcw

Thanks Phil for the JCW mini i hope this brings you closer to finish the white Mini?😎💚👨‍🔧

The dents are from the stacker in the front look at the width its stacker loaders .theyve scooped it up at the front .it discused me how they dont care .

Arthur tusick is the best in EUROPE He blows my mind .A mercedes AMG C63 that rolled 8 times it looked the size of this mini then he put it back on the road in 4 weeks .

I worked in a car restoration place in Canada and they would mig weld everything but they never protected the windscreen all the sparks embedded in the glass

well done the car is getting their so are you going to starting your mini

Well Phil, For somone who says he does not know what he is doing ..... you seem to have gotten there Bob (Weston)

Assuming no mods have been done, the difference between a JCW and Cooper S is the JCW doesn’t have front fog lights as it has air vents instead, those cup wheels are arched out further to allow for the JCW brakes to fit, the speedo has JCW branding and the outer center display ring has speedo markings. You can spec a Cooper S with the aero kit so those lower side skirts are a legit OEM option for any model.

Good work Phil but to my eye the rear quarter panel needed a pull downward a millimetre or two which may have pulled the dent out.

Yes will be swapped over 👍

Looking like a very successful repair (but listen to all the Brian Coat health & safety advice)

Done well on that Phil love the colour.

Service history is digital if it was serviced at main dealer but if done at other garage it won`t be stored thats on my 2017 Mini will look stunning when finished

Lovely you make me laugh by saying double trouble

Good to see you extend your skill set Phil but u need a mask when sanding that dust will destroy your lungs mate 👍 👍

Hi Phil. Check all the electrics in the door and mirror work. I put a 2019 door on a 2016 mini and the loom was slightly different. Extra sensor on the door handle. Had to swop the harness over. 👍

Either, you’re thick as it pretty obvious the l👀ms are different you don’t gave to be Sherlock 🕵️‍♂️ to work that out👂🏾👈🏾🎓

Hi, Phil who do you use for the seat repair?

hi when are you going to finish the white mini?

Phil have you got a slide hammer

Well impressed with that pull, respectfully I would not mix filler on cardboard, I believe it saps chemicals from your filler mix. I always finish with Dolphin Glaze, a U{Pol product. You really do get on with any task in hand. Thank You

what is your cooper waiting for??

You need to sand the primer then get some glazing to use as a final coat of fillers that should help with pin holes good luck when pulling might be best practice to use a panel betting hammer on the high spots.

Thought I was your friend Phil 🤔 you didn’t buy me a car , not even a normal Mini let alone a Cooper one , may have to rethink our friendship 😂.

For somebody that doesn't know what they are doing you are doing an amazing job. It's already looking a million times better than when it came in.

You got to fever you edges edges . DA your edges with 180 so you have no step in your paint over wise you will do all this work and it wills show when itS all painted

How much did you buy it for

Treat yourself to Bilt Hamber High Build primer, it fills the pin holes Ive just dome a morris minor wing

Great to see a bit of pulling and filling phil. Good stuff

A thought it was the front once side's repaired never tell

Hello mate

I think I'd of got another shell, or even used the white one. But I'd give you something for having a go Phil, it's patience patience and again more patience to get it looking good.

Get some one it's got a jig too put it onit if ye.ve not got one just take it too them then do rest yerself

I'll buy the alloys off you ;)

Check out Grants bodywork channel you KZread Phil, lots of good content that I’m sure would help you.

You should use a proper mask when you're doing that kind of work, like painting, sanding, etc. Your lungs will thank you in the future.

Previous comments have said it for me, but speaking as a bloke who has worked on cars and buildings with scant regard for personal protection for 45 years, I can assure you that, the hearing protection, is the one thing I wish I had used. That ringing sound you get, after using the angle grinder, is a bitch when it never goes away! Do it now and don't regret it when you're older. Nice work though.

good vidio nice job.

you should invest in a jig

Can you please use your mobile mic rather than having the mic close to your mouth, because your lip smacking and sooking noises are extremely obnoxious, it’s constant

What a useless can of primer!

Bit homophobic that title mate. I know they are a bit of a girly car but calling it bent is a bit out of order.

what''s with all the lip smacking sounds? i enjoy your vids otherwise.
