That was a fantastic episode Barnesy, some great info for everyone else. Loved the KBS sound deadener and how it looked easy to fit. Great of them to support you. Also loved that you told us about what your next plans are. Looking fantastic, not far now!

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Thanks mate 👍

[@jughtful]

nice work Barneys you will have a big smile driving this around mate !!!

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Definitely looking forward to that first drive out of town

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Barnsey, one thing you do and is appreciated is let viewers know the cost of what bits cost, this is in no way a cheap hobby but the end result is well worth it, it’s great to see kbs is supporting the build, awesome job mate, cheers

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Thanks mate, I try and keep it realistic and as you know it requires a lot of financial sacrifice plus a huge amount of spare time to restore a car.

[@cobyfield9237]

Most likely $30-35k + tools that he started with barely any of. Engine + Auto would be the bulk of it.

[@duncantaylor6183]

Been watching from the start. Your doing a fkn awesome job with this mate. It will be a superb example of an Aussie classic. Well done cant wait to see you finish it. Amazing effort.

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Thanks mate, appreciate that feedback, gearing up for the final run home to bring it all together. Cheers for watching from the beginning as well!👍

[@ryanadams3858]

Was throwing the stone down the hole at the start a visual metaphor of a money pit 😂 I know restoring anything can sometimes feel like throwing cash in a money pit. One day when your old you may want to take on a small restoration job, maybe you could restore the ceiling fan with an old car you had laying around 😂 happy Easter, keep em coming 👍

[@BarnesysBuilds]

It was a bit random I know😂 basically I include snippets of what I've been doing, I found an old mine shaft that was just an open trap for someone to fall in. Extremely dangerous so I was testing how deep it was. Maybe that fan will get it's fix one day but will live on forever in my Ute!

[@adelaideinvigilation5230]

we also added sound deadener to the inside walls of tub, both sides, not all of it but just bits and pieces just to quieten the door close noise as well as drum. The gauge I miss out of all of my cars is the vacuum gauge that my skyline had, could always tell the state of tune of the engine and fuel usage, no turbo fitted, but it was so handy.

[@BarnesysBuilds]

That's not a bad idea, I was going to do the doors but had not thought about the inside of the quarter panels. Love the old skyline as well!

[@shanedavies9564]

Nice one barnsy , cheers , shaneo, nelson, nz, 👍

[@craig7343]

Looking forward to seeing the motor going in. I'm sure the dash will come out brilliant. Doing a great job Barnesy. 👍👍👌

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Thanks mate, looking forward to the engine, seems to be taking forever but will get there

[@craig7343]

Just stay positive at least you know it's done properly. You will get there man 👍

[@ShadowtheGermanShepard5036]

Looking good mate getting there 🎉🎉🎉

Awesome as always mate 👍 can’t wait for the next one 😬

Nice work man !

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Thanks mate

[@petertulloch6510]

G'day Barnsey. Loving the build and the series. Great to see the Aussie content. I would be really keen to get hold of one of the rubber "spare wheel winch hole covers" that you showed in the video for my own HJ Ute resto. Can you share where you got it from ? Great idea. Always looking forward to the next install. Cheers, Pete.

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Hey Peter, thanks 👍 I am looking at getting some more produced so will hopefully get them done in the next few weeks. I plan on producing a few unicorn parts with some new small run manufacturing methods as I feel there's a lot of those floating around at the moment. I will post in the next couple of episodes as to when these will eventuate.

[@craigpearson4622]

Great job 👍every step involves real work - utes are a “work horse”…even before they’re finished ⌛️

[@BarnesysBuilds]

This one certainly has been that's for sure!

[@marty_34]

Hey man I have a question which video do you have where you removed the fuel tank cause I am trying to remove mine and it still has the body on the chassis and it’s not coming out and I don’t wanna stick my head under there until i know what I am looking for to prevent getting bitten by a red back

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Have a look at the installing fuel tank sender video as I go into the mounting system in that. I didn't film removing it originally.

[@beauchamp1763]

Lookin good mate, a b&m shift would go with the whole build as a performance package. Not far now!!!

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Yes I tend to agree on that one, cheers mate👍

[@stevo184]

Looking great 👍

[@thewatsonian8111]

Enjoying the build. I’ve just spent the last week catching up. Have you ever noticed your music is significantly louder than your talking?

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Cheers, yeah KZbin music is loud by default, one tool I am going to use that uses AI is a sound level pass at the end. Mixes all the sound to a level format so you don't blow your speakers off when it kicks in.

[@shinemine6135]

When you want to fix broken plastic on the tail lights....use super glue and bicarb soda....works a treat.

[@BarnesysBuilds]

As in mix them together? What's the theory there?

[@mc4nathan336]

Bicarb soda makes the superglue set stight away so you can layer it and build it up

[@matthewazzopardi4105]

Hey mate, love the build been following since day 1, great to see the progress you make each time learning yourself each time. just a heads up as well that shifter you have is out of a TE gemini, would still work but not the original WB ute shifter! also wondering where the 'Hell yeah" hat is from keep up the great work Mate

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Thanks Matt, someone did mention about the shifter, the Ute was certainly put together in an interesting way! Maybe those shifters were better than the stock WB ones. Not sure. The whole drive train came out of a WB statesman I'm pretty sure but they must've swapped out the shifter. The hat is from FYXO cycling, came in a showbag and is just a great hat.

[@Clemohunt]

You can buy the console mounting bracket kit. I got one a few months back.

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Mounting kit for the bang shifter?

[@Clemohunt]

@@BarnesysBuilds no the reso country console

[@581pantah]

A complete wb statesman interior is the way to go. done a ute many years ago ,with a donor wrecked statesman .morone cloth interior,dash and all,probably a bit harder to find these days

[@BarnesysBuilds]

They aren't cheap your right, and one in good condition is very hard to find so it would be a refurb on top of that. I think it's easier and cheaper to buy a carpet interior kit and just fit it out now I have the seats.

[@chriselop9121]

How about printing up the tail light bracket (maybe not as your first project) 😊

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Would love to have a go at those, would be a great challenge.

[@chriselop9121]

@@BarnesysBuilds first step is to get yourself a laser scanner to capture the existing shape

[@lukedionysius7609]

Hey Barnsey Great job with the build! Just letting you know your discount code has expired!

[@BarnesysBuilds]

@@lukedionysius7609 thanks mate, yeah the discount was done by KBS so only for a limited time after the vid.

[@EricCavanagh-td3pz]

How much of the KBS Matt did you need for the ute?

[@BarnesysBuilds]

A couple of boxes from memory, I think I mention it on the video somewhere.

[@barktacusbarker4369]

how many cartons did you use for the ute mate . ute looks great

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Just over one actually, still have plenty left for doors as well.

[@jasonfreiberg7138]

Barnsey how many cartons did you use?

[@BarnesysBuilds]

I ended up using just over 1 carton but haven't done the doors yet so 2 cartons would do the whole lot on a ute I reckon.

@@Jimmyy32 I will let KBS know they need to step up their excel game!

[@GeeenJ]

just checked the kbs site $177 for 1 carton thats expensive barnsey

[@BarnesysBuilds]

Have a look at dynamat prices as well which are more than KBS. They are both premium products so yes you will pay more than eBay stuff however you also get what you pay for with quality.

[@shanemclachlan421]

Hello that not a WB shifter it’s a TE Gemini

[@BarnesysBuilds]

How do you know that? I was pretty sure the whole drive train came out of a WB statesman

Yeah that shifter is definitely not a H series holden shifter You shouldn't have to much trouble getting hold of a shifter to suit the Turbo box.shouldn't be that hard to find Turbo shifters linkages are on the opposite side to Trimatic shifter.
