Hi Phil, I have just watched Château life, then see you working on Billys rustbucket! I can’t believe how talented you are and your tenacity in view of what you have to do at the Château. Do take care of yourself you haven’t been well, and it seems as if you really never stop working. Thank you so much for the Vlogs I enjoy watching both of your channels. 👌🏻❤️❤️❤️💝🇦🇺

I admire your optimism in the face of such rust-riddled adversity

Big word Adversity, had to look it up. Good word, I like it.

This vehicle is going to be pristine when you get done with it. You are a good man with epic work ethics. I do enjoy watching both of your channels equally.

Of course we watch chateau life 🎉❤ You are a busy guy Great to see you Phil Hope you feel better 😊

Holy smokes you’ve got a to do list at the shop 😮.

Lots of projects Phill. You're doing very well in my opinion for what it's worth. Keep on keepin' on.

you are quite literally rebuilding that car inch by inch

It will be beautiful when your done. Hope you feel better soon.

I'm hoping that the van engine is still ok for you... You are doing a grand job... Your car looks great after a good tidy and clean. Van doesn't look too horrible either... but the rover... oi... loads of work there... don't envy you but I know you can do it. Hopefully the mower and the chipper are easy fixes... good luck Phil!

Fingers crossed the engine isn’t ruined Phil! You need a good piece of luck to happen finally.

It is all going to be fine in the end. Once you get the forest Range Rover completed things will look and feel better. You are a great mechanic Phil and you can do whatever you set your mind to. Have a great day

You are definitely going to have to charge Billy for your time and labor on fixing the rust bucket.👍

Wow! No wonder it’s taken a while with Billy’s Range Rover you basically have to replace most parts. You’re doing a terrific job by the way. I enjoy watching, Thanks for the video

A true rebuild…You can do anything you set your mind to do. Quite a challenge for a talented man!

The work and $$$ signs are clicking up!!

Hi Phil, you are a glutton for punishment, I admire your tenacity, I did suggest you could let a small part of the workshop out, for company and takes the risk out of being alone there Love watching both of your channels regards P

Phil, I love and watch both your channels. Hope you feel better soon. Cheers

I am looking forward to the day Billy gives this to Ernest.

​@@danielulz1640And, seeing Phil's work; it will be an awesome 1st Car for Ernest.

It never rains but it pours! Your plate is definitely full but I am confident that you will conquer…one job at a time. Keep on keeping on! 🙏❤️

So much work so little time, love the chateau videos as well, thank you for sharing 😊 you are a clever man of all trades😅

You are just incredible, Phil 🎉. I always wished I had been able to do everything myself . Keep up the momentum, matey ❤

wish you could clean my car--it looks great!

You are doing great! Some people take years to do a restoration on a car! I am glad that you are replacing body panels! I was thinking to weld them would be hard. Fun getting everything apart! Hope that you feel better soon. Having a lift sure helps!

Feel better soon 🌞💐

Me and my mates schedule a "Garage Day" when things get where you need "help". Buy a sixer and get your chums in there to help!

Ugggh. My worst nightmare would be a rusted wheel well in the front. First, I couldn't get a new panel on this side of the pond. Second it would be a huge job for me.

This car will owe Phil its new life 3x over...

Well done,Phil, on cleaning the car. Good luck with the other two cars.❤

I agree that what is old should be made new again, and not just throwing out.

Your 21 year old vehicle she still looks good and drives still.❤️

Great work! Car is looking pretty and well loved!😊❤

Good morning. Good to see you again.😊👍

That RR looks like it spent time in Nova Scotia. A lot of salt is used on the roads here during our long winters.

I admire your dedication and patience Phil. You are going above and beyond the call of duty, friendship. I hope you check in with someone to make sure you are alive and ok at the end of the day. I worry about that. Thank you may you please take care and stay safe. Louisa. 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩🤩

I would work on getting the wood chipper done,then the lawn mower, and then the VW van and worry about the Land Rover later!!!👍

Hi Phil, how about organising a working bee at your home..put on a bar-b-que as a reward for helping you. They could also help you in the workshop…you deserve some from those you willingly helped. Take care, get some rest. Cheers Trish NZ🙏🙋‍♀️🍻🫶

That is a nice riding lawnmower ☺️

I want to see where the sink goes. I needed to change a thermostat and everyone said it will only take 10 minutes. After the bolt snapped off it only took 3 days the fix. Your dedication is amazing.

Someday this to will be fixed an looking like a brand new transporter😂😂😂

Good morning Phil

You are doing an amazing job on the Range Rover, I’m sad that someone just left it in a forest to rot. I can’t wait to see it back on the road 👍

I am sure you will figure out what needs to be done 1st and fixed just worry about Billy rust bucket for another time!!! 👍

Be safe and careful.☺️👍🙏

And just where in the Rover is that kitchen sink going?? ;-))

Well…you shouldn’t be at a loss for something to do for quite a long while 😊

I really enjoy your videos! You are doing a great job.

Your shop looks like my yard 😂 so many things to do to vehicles I need the motivation to even go out to look ☹️ and we are going into winter 🥶

Do Range Rovers begin rusting whilst still on the assembly line? 🤔 😂 Good luck with the VW van. I hope that it is not too bad.

asking a question can you treat the new pieces against rust b4 reattaching them to the frame of the classic? if so prolong their life there. got to know abt engine mower set for another season your wheels to go here & there put pieces in places where you work on the auto then clean up. if its a deisel its kranky but if its gas its done move on to new engine. loved working on cars engines w/ my dad! it always brings back good mrmories! Crack on !

I think you need some help. Could you hire an intern that would love to work and learn from a master? You would be such an excellent teacher and your projects would move along quicker. Just a thought.

👍👍👍 Hi Phil, gosh Billie’s ‘forest car’ is so time consuming for you, fix one thing and another problem appears … is it imperative that you complete the restoration right away? For you to put on your summer events at the chateau the grounds need to be in order. Maybe the mower and chipper could be overhauled first, then out of the garage and back at the chateau. You really are a brute for punishment 😃…. back to England to pick up two more vehicles?? Take care of yourself, stay safe and happy. Give Lightening a big hug he’s lovely. Judy

Glad you know what your doin Phil, your the specialist. One should never call some one an expert, eX is and unknown quantity, and spert is a drip under pressure Doin well m8, stay vertical.

Hi Phil, been watching this series for a long time, some advice on the RRC front end, take the scuttle panel off (the bit between the bonnet and windscreen) and have a look at the top of the bulkhead, it can hide loads of nasties!

It will be done eventually as we all know it's a part-time hobby sure Billy is in no hurry. I am amazed what you have managed so far. My only query is if you can't get the part say it's not being produced I suppose you would have to manufacture something yourself. Always interesting to catchup on what you are doing so don't worry about slacking off as you have plenty of other things to get on with. Your health is very important than any hobby or work. It would have been interesting if you had a student volunteer someone who wanted to lean how to do this themselves to give you a hand.

Ever wish you hadn't started a job lol

Does Billy know you are installing a bar sink in the rover?

Yes do something for yourself you deserve it.😊👍

I really hope Billy is paying you what you’re worth for this sieve 😂. Can’t believe your Range Rover is that old, it looks very nice. Take care lovely. K🇬🇧❤️

You're good. No worriez--- 🌊

finish your things all of them then work on Billy's one vehicle

Yes I know twill figure it out and cut all the old off and weld in new parts 😁

That thing is built like crap no wonder they rust all the small panels stitched together and no seam sealer. Why not just replace the whole front clip?

Did you Sell your Share in The Pub/ Bar in France for the Garage??

That rust is really really bad.👍

Would it be cheaper to just buy all new parts and build a whole new car? Just keep the drive train.😊😊😊

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Where do you put the kitchen sink...inside Billy's rust mobile?

👋👍💗

I don't understand why the English keep driving right hand wheel cars. They must be cheaper in UK than second hand ones in France. Downside you cannot sell these ones in France either. Get rid of the junk as it cost too much money and it is time-consuming. You have better stuff to do. Get a nice diesel pick up for the industrial stuff en use the land-rover for the dinner drives and travels to UK.

Where does the sink go?

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😮

Never ever takes this on again. The hobby of Billy is not the same as your hobby. I have seen this twice in my family's garage. Customers thought as it was THEIR hobby it would not cost as much as normal daily car repairs for normal customers....wrong! I even had to collect the money for 1 job from this hobby customer as he thought it was for free.

Why is this worth saving? Something i am missing?
