Surprised no-ones mentioned Goonzquad 😁😁 (Can be OTT & a little silly at times but the work they do is quite good,) Also, No Nonsense Know How and Dylan McCool can both be quite watchable, Lastly, there's an Irish chap called Mad4Motors whose channel is quite watchable, Nigel

You say your bootlining isn't pretty, Maybe not but, IMO, it's pretty "period correct" in that they never used hidden fixings etc. back then, its tidied everything up and it looks great, Hope you and Mrs. Crackpot have a speedy full recovery and looking forward to seeing future updates, Nigel

Nice looking car, This, to me, is the era when the best Mercedes were made, I accept they make some nice looking cars now but not to the same standards of quality, Looking forward to seeing future updates and bookmarked, Nigel,

Excellent work as usual, Could you not have put equally spaced pieces in all the rails to give adjustment or would that significantly affect rigidity or strength?? Nigel

I really enjoy the detail in your threads, very informative, Looking at the wipers, they look very similar in operation, to those on a TR6 I rebuilt many years ago where I too found them a PITA to access / refit, Happy memories of a Marina, Nigel

That is a really nice looking car, Seems to be in quite reasonable condition, Have to say though, horrido's "2 door coupe" is beautiful, looks very "Rolls Royce-ish" Looking forward to seeing future updates on this project, Nigel
