The attached is about half way through fitting an old Ford Popular sedan
onto a Miata chassis to make a track car (Yes, it sounds mad).  Matt, the
guy that is doing this has amazing fabrication skills and all the work is
done a very modest shop in the UK with the most basic of tools.  He is a
great welder.  In the series, which includes fitting the body, making a roll
cage and fabricating suspension pieces he explains what he is doing and how
he makes it work.  For the most part the videos are short, 15 mins or so, so
watching is easy.  As builder and one man video/editing team his channel is
very well done.  This is a young guy that is carrying on a tradition of
handcrafting cars using mostly his skill.  Take a look, learn and enjoy, I
did.
