I must admit painting models has never been my bag at all, I regard myself as lacking in both the fine dexterity and imagination, but I found watching this to be very relaxing and has given me a new perspective on model painting. Very enjoyable, thank you!

I thought she would be MOT exempt because of her age.
@noexpensespentstudios2 ай бұрын
She is, and I am taking advantage of that currently, but I'd still like an MoT done for peace of mind so I can catch anything that's easier to see on a lift than it is on the drive at home.

Is the gearbox end on the speedo cable, smaller to thread the bulkhead grommet over, With the help of WD40 ?
@noexpensespentstudios2 ай бұрын
There's not much in it really, I think the risk of tearing the bulkhead grommet is pretty high whichever way you go about it.

Why would anyone bother ... Is the rear axle attached 😂
@noexpensespentstudios2 ай бұрын
Why indeed. Axle's still on there, I reckon we're okay.
@stevehill46152 ай бұрын
That speedo cable looks awfully similar to whats fitted to Reliant Robin/Rialto (obviously check the length but the fittings each end are the same) which might be easier to source, from how you were describing the problem could your fault with the foglight be a wire or connector thats broken internally that depending on position makes or breaks the power feed to the switch?
@noexpensespentstudios2 ай бұрын
The Reliant one is much shorter, mainly because the Reliant is very nearly mid-engined and a small car. The foglight issue could be anything, it's not appeared since this video, I'm sure it's just biding its time!

I helped a buddy rewire an old Sprite. We junked the ENTIRE harness from bumper to bumper and installed a new kit.
@noexpensespentstudios2 ай бұрын
That's only about 6" of wiring, Sprites are barely bigger than shoes.

Went through MoT many years without a speedometer even fitted to one of my cars. Not required.
@noexpensespentstudios2 ай бұрын
True. It's nice to know how fast I'm going when there's speed cameras about, all the same, especially since I'm pretty low tech and don't have a phone/satnav in the car at all times.

I assume you’ve noticed the kinked coolant hose, so I won’t point it out … oops, I just did!
@noexpensespentstudios2 ай бұрын
It's just like that. Doesn't seem to cause any problems. Another little item on my (thankfully shrinking) fix-it list.
@emmajacobs55752 ай бұрын
For holding small slippery parts, I’ve found needle nose pliers with bent tips (so the opening stays parallel-ish) with either silicone hose or a little blue-tack for grip works reasonably well.

That's one of those "why didn't I think of that?" moments now you mention it. I'll try and remember for next time.

Well done. Be interested to know what settings you used on the welder and what seam sealer you're using.
@noexpensespentstudios3 ай бұрын
I couldn't tell you what settings I used on the welder, generally I just set it to whatever works best and leave it there. Seam sealer is Grey Stripe brush on, nothing fancy, which has always been fine on whatever I've used it on over the years.

Nice work! I'm a big fan of "functional" welding. Proper honest repairs, nothing to apologies for. Weld it, spray it, seal it and f*** it 👍

Missed you lad. Glad you're back. There has been an incredible uplift in Lanchesters of late, especially through the DLOC, and quite a few requests for spares, so you might have another potentia revenue stream.
