[@ResidentNetizen]

Love the channel! Very excited to follow this series. One day I'll start on my life's dream car- dad's EXU that was parked in 1966 for a 'brief' motor refresh.

Hey Daniel, Can really relate to your frustration with the welder. I brought my TR3 fenders to a metal fabricator/ body-man, said he could have them ready for paint within 90 days. Over the next couple months I brought him bonnet, trunk lid, spare cover, doors, each time I came to check progress on fenders he had not started yet, he reassured he would have them in paint by Dec. As soon as he was finished with that other car. This went on and on and on. He would do a little repair on something of mine and get my hopes up give another timeline for getting it in the paint booth. The man knew his trade the parts I saw finished where like new. The problem there not my TR pieces!! I allowed my hopes of getting the TR body completed by this man for 2years. -WHY- He continued to reassure me with each visit by doing a little work on my project. HE HAD TO MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE and got burned when the guy he was leasing the shop space from told him to get out.😮 I am learning too, auto restoration are challenging, time consuming and 👁️ opening. It will roll down the road again, with or without a body.❤

It’s a part of the process I guess! Get it on the road! 😁 thanks for the support!

I never miss a video! Thanks a million for the passion! I truly mean it when I say that the videography is getting impressive!🤙😉

Great video,really nice presentation. I love your sarcasm and humor. Working on an assembly line building agriculture tractors for years I find your discovery old school technology of safety wiring critical hardware the best. While most have substituted jam nuts on assembly on critical bolts, they are still required on aviation power plants. Jam nuts are for one time use and that's the beauty of drilled heads, they're field serviceable for reuse. Once again, I really enjoyed your discovery path.

Excellent point, and I don’t mind the safety wire either. Seems solid. Thanks for the support, I appreciate it! Tell your friends and don’t forget to subscribe 😁

Piston ring debacle? Can hardly wait.

[@StudeLark]

80's China vibes lol. In the future the patina paint jobs will look just as silly. Great channel ! look forward to the next one.

If you dont know, Withworth threads has a 55 degree thread profile angle, instead of 60 degrees like SAE or metric. Had me stumped what had "damaged" the threads i was dealing with the first time i came across withworth😂

[@limit55]

Yes indeed! Will have plenty of practice on the TC engine. Make sure to subscribe and tell your friends!

[@waynekaminski5438]

Depends on which part of Canada your source is from. Quebec? questionable Lol

[@bryantsemenza38]

Unfortunately you reside in California where they are outlawing repair, chroming and paint shops…. So all the good ones are leaving or gone and you are left with a “RUDY”!!!
