@0.43, it's recommended not to jack on the sills, use the rear axle or front suspension

Then why is there a jacking point...on the sills...
@nickb53917 ай бұрын
@@williamwilliamsa30 because the factory fitted it on nearly 70 years ago, you do not know what the internal support is like inside
@williamwilliamsa307 ай бұрын
Fair point. As it happens, I replaced both the inner and the outer sills with thick gauge steel when I fully restored the car, I also added box section and bracing internally so they are far stronger than factory issue
@nickb53917 ай бұрын
@@williamwilliamsa30 That's fair comment, it is commonly known & suggested in the owners club not to use the original jacking points & to use something much stronger but if you have heavily strenthened yours up that's fair enough

The instrument cluster is different to most other A30s and 35s I've seen. Was that a feature of the very early A30s? What year is the car? Thanks.

Disappointing drive, you got it muddy so why not hit the road?
@williamwilliamsa308 ай бұрын
Can't help but feel you have rather missed the point...also failed to read the description for the video, allow me to enlighten you! I couldn't 'hit the road ' as at present the car has no insurance. Also, when you fully restore a car as I have done, you seldom turn the key and drive off into the sun set... Wether it be two feet or twenty meters, a first drive is a victory. Don't play down someone else's achievements and effort because it doesn't look exciting to you...to me, just seeing that car outside and running was the best thing in the world. Thanks for playing.

When connecting the battery, always fit the earth strap last, that way you won't get an accidental short.
@williamwilliamsa309 ай бұрын
I am aware, as there is literally nothing that draws power with the ignition off and I have fitted electronic ignition it's highly unlikely to cause any shorts but thank you for your input.

The reason for earth first (when removing) and last (when refitting), is incase you touch something metal with the spanner when tightening. I think lead acid batteries give of hydrogen gas, which is explosive. Probably the reason why they tell you to connect the last jump lead 18 inch away from battery.

Yes exactly remove the earth first when removing and last when re fitting isolating the body is always top priority 😊😊

This is beautiful. I sang this song to my husband at our wedding and now my little sister is getting married and asked my daughter to play this on her harp at her wedding. Could you tell me what sheet music you are using? Thank you!

Pretty! :) I'm in love with your Paloma... With regards to 'The Water is Wide' - I play a variation on an arrangement by Laurie Riley (from her book 'Celtic Music for Folk Harp') and I highly recommend it! I'll try to do a basic recording of it sometime soon (I'm quite embarrassed posting youtubes of me playing as I don't do it so well...) for reference.

Perhaps you HEAR the tune louder than your recording apparatus reproduces it? That means that we miss out rather on the tune, the accompaniment being relatively dominant and unchanging, until the nice rallantando at the end, Can you adjust the balance on the recorder or amplifier?.
