I can't believe you didn't check all this before you bought it.

Really enjoyed this video, even though I'm well informed about everything you spoke about, it was really well explained

You have some impressive skills. Thoroughly enjoyed your video.

That is a tremendous sound for a RoverV8, just singing!

Love them ❤

I love it, but the steering is on the wrong side.

It takes a very special kind of mechanic to sort all these things. Most older cars and modified cars have many things wrong with them.

Thanks for the video Steve, your work is always inspiring, you clearly are very skilful. Much to be admired.

Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe 👍👍🚘🚘🍾🥂🤗🤗

You can't beat a mini nice video 🎉

Absolutely brilliant 😊

excellent video . i now understand how the 38/38 carb works

Very well done video. But, I'm curious as to why you wouldn't check the play in the diff first so you wouldn't have to remove and reassemble it all up on the bench? If no play there then you could move on to check the half shafts or am I missing something? Thanks!

Wish I could find sone one like you but with a m z3 tho alot of it is the same process

Cars are actually made with 0.5-0.6mm steel, and I'd say it's fine for backing composite panels. Also, epoxy isn't strong on its own. It only holds two layers together. The thinner the epoxy the better.

What's the reasoning behind not allowing a full roll cage for street use? Anything to make the car safer can't be wrong.

Beautiful well considered work as always. I often think where do you find the time whilst working full time.

Amazing video with very good explanations..! Just, what are « euro 2-3..etc.. »..?Depending of years of our car..?Thanks..

Both the effort you put into the Mini and the craftsmanship in making this video are absolutely amazing. Incredible work! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Great video! 👍 Keep making them please

I used to race against an MGC with a 4.4L Leyland P76 engine. All the good gear plus a Ford Falcon GT 9-inch diff with discs. The difference I've found between split urethane bushes and normal bushes is the urethane bushes rotate on the steel bushes instead of deflecting and wear out a lot faster. They might still look good on the outside, but the ID is worn.

Another great video! So had you gone with a Weber, would you have used a IDA or a DCOE? Decades ago, at a race track in SoCal, it seems like I saw a bunch of Minis fitted with 40 DCOEs.

Love all your videos plus your accent , are you in Holland ?

Lovely mini! I've never seen that way of spacing the (front) wheels out, it would seem weaker than either bolt on spacers or a spacer and longer wheel studs. Is there a reason you chose this method? (Even these methods are illegal here, due to the strength lost). Longer wheel studs would be readily available as they are used for the spacer drums. Ideally a negative offset wheel would be the best solution.

My first 2 cars were Mini's a 1970 850cc then a 1973 Australian 1275cc twin SU carb's and oil cooler both purchased new they were great fun to drive.

Hi Steve, what’s happening with old crusty?

You have amassed quite a library of very good work! Thanks for the many, many hours you invested in it!

Hi 👋🏻 Steve. Being English 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 it’s great seeing one of our classic Minis being lovely looked after by the master of restoration 👍🏻

Brilliant photograph 👌

When Enzo Ferrari drove into the hills around Modena, he sometimes took his Mini Cooper. The small car had an engine tuning by Downton. 😀

I see why you love your Mini..you know each part and function and are able to diagnose and fix..but to the average public driver taking it to a shop and have parts and repairs can bite the happiness figure..but damn yours is such a great car that can move on down the track/road..thx Steve for another great video..

Hi Steve, you built the Mini with great attention to detail😊👍🏻. This was a great project. The video is perfect🎥

Beautiful machine Steve🙂

Who hates a mini???? I have an early 1960 that I drive all the time.

I used to have a Mini 1981 and and it was 1969.

You love anything that's yellow and black :) Seriously mate.. where do you get all your time from? Do you have someone(s) behind the scenes to help with production, mechanics etc? Your output is impressive.

i have watched so many of your videos. and love the Mini ones you have done. great looking car.

Very nice car and great work as always Steve

Really enjoying these "summary" videos. Nice work. 🤓👍

What a fine machine!! Luckily a competent mechanic ( yourself)got the car. Great job!!!

When burning, start a width at the bottom and work your way up. The rising heat preheats the wall and roots and they will combust quicker and more thoroughly.

This has become one of my favorite cars of yours. I really like the design and the nature of it, even though I don't know a whole lot aboout TVRs. This recap made me really want to revisit the series. Great work as always!

👍👍👍

The rear end perspective of the car looks the best on this TVR. Steve, your depth and breadth of skills and knowledge are impressive, as well as your esthetics sensibility of arts and music.

Currently restoring my MG without a garage, one day i aspire to work as meticulously as you, great vid again.

How is the balance of the car with that big v8 in front?

Very nice! Brings back memories...I owned a 1973 MGB for 18 years as my daily driver. The only modifications I did to it was putting on a Weber DGV 32/36, headers, tube shock conversion, and electronic ignition. Often thought about doing a V8 engine swap...I think the typical engine would have been a Buick aluminum 218 c.i. or something like that. Its been almost 30 years gone now.

Video bellissimo,spiegazione completa e semplice da capire! Le faccio i miei complimenti e la ringrazio dall’Italia!

Very nice treatment of this subject, just the right amount of info graphic too. Thanks.
