Flat flush fasteners fitted to a red lorry or a yellow lorry, I couldn't say that on camera 👍 Great episode chaps, it's a massive complex build, if you've still not done the drive shafts check out a old video of mine having to shorten 02M shafts, same principle. If doing it again I'd cut in the middle, easier to insert a machined interference part and weld (I actually feel I should make a spare set up!😂)

Are you sure about using wood for the underside of the car? Even resin-bonded and coated woods...? Easy to replace, sure, but... weather does horrible, horrible things to wood - even well protected wood. I wouldn't recommend it. Could you not use some kind of plastic sheet instead, like ABS, or even polyamide nylon? I suggest plastic only because it's cheap, weather-resistant, easy to work with, lighter than wood, and just as strong, but you won't have to replace it every springtime.

The big pads on the firewall degrade and end up trapping moisture. This then causes the bulkhead to rot out. The fact that yours has gone is no bad thing.

@cabe_bedlam Ай бұрын
My understanding is the grooves go forward to assist in deglazing, and the rotors are usually marked left/right. Unless they are vented disks, then the internal vanes need to point "backwards" to ensure dust is expelled outward regardless of groove/drill direction.

On second watch, I'm remembering how much of this is 75-100+mph with all the wet and corners. It seems less violent with the camera soaking up the track's rather aggressive changes in camber/condition/altitude like nothing.

At the end, where you sit there with the coffee mug, that corner of the car will be OK with the IVA? That corner is not to pointy? Also, those panel will stay in there just by friction? I'm having a hard time figuring out how to cover the shifter area. I'm only an old school card board designer.
@ChrisDRimmer 2 ай бұрын
Yeah, I can’t remember the specific numbers but the IVA dictates minimum radii for those bits, and they’re surprisingly small so we’re well above them. It’s more rounded than it looks on camera :)

There are machines which recycle the plastic and turn it into filament but they’re quite expensive and at our scale, the economics don’t work out. I think PLA is plant-derived and degrades quite well though so the ecological impact is limited.

I have a '65 Thunderbird that I have been working on for over a year.... I have replaced my fuel tank, it was not that bad really but needed professional cleaning and sealing. The price quoted me was $430 a new take was only $20 more so I installed the new tank with a new sending unit. Since then I have replaced all the seals in rebuilding the steering gear box. then I had the power break booster rebuilt, then installed a new master cylinder... now I'm broke. Well I also found two fried wires in the wiring harness and I have peeled all the tape covering the wiring harness. So much fun. I used to have a '64 Thunderbird that I drove in the UK when I was stationed there at RAF Upper Heyford. I sold it back in '92 I hope it is still running around England some where.
