Crashing a Car Show with the 8.8 Litre V8 Powered Fire Engine!

[@Dhira108]

Jupes gate-crashing a classic car show sounds like a perfect day to me 😊

[@HeavyTanker-vx4oq]

Love the Optimus Prime shirt.

[@CONCORDE444]

Its wonderful to see Jupes out and about, However it would be wonderful in the future to see Redruth running with her, I know that will be years away, but i still looking forward to seeing that.

Good evening Laurie!! What a lovely classic vehicle show at a gorgeous heritage railway!!

[@lewisbloom]

Best ice cream trip vehicle for sure.

Hi Lawrie. glad to see Jupes out again. It was great to see your pals at GETS last Sunday. Caroline.

[@TK42138]

A classic fire engine, ice-cream, heritage railway, a classic car show and English countryside. Perfect.

Nice video. In the early 80s, when I was a full time fireman, those Dennis's were new. In Kent our's were all automatic.

[@Searchingforinfo]

Every drive in car show needs a restored fire engine🌹

[@RG-Models86]

A day out in a fire engine to a heritage railway + ice cream 🍦 Seems like the ideal day out to me 👍😁👍. Great video, Lawrie 👍

[@Mrdoctile]

Hey..Hey..Hey.... What about the Ice Cream.... Show it next time Buster.... ;)

[@lordsjaak]

really, i was hoping as good joke. you all forgot the ice cream to buy on the end of this video. just like in british comedy

[@tiddles4x4]

I need that T-Shirt. Love the original and best Optimus Prime 😍

[@ptonpc]

Best thing to do with a classic, have good adventures.

[@Hoggles94]

Time to get Redruth going I think 😂 can’t be having all this reliability 😂

[@daveyorkvh]

What is happening with the other fire engine you have? Could you maybe do an update video like when you did whats broke now?

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

great vid on the channel of a show thanks lee

[@richardbrobeck2384]

Lawrie Yes I too like the 944 I have a friend who owns one .

[@hujiproductions8457]

Lovely video, was so nice to Jupiter at Rustival

[@adamcrane6306]

Hello Lawrie's Mechanical Marvels

[@NZHazard]

have you considered contacting one of the fire stations that it served, and see if the older fire crews or retired crews tell you some of the stories. I'm sure even having the new crews would like to try out jupes, though I'm sure you could haggle to let you drive their truck for comparison purposes.

[@MostlyInteresting]

I have had 2 944s so I agree

[@MostlyInteresting]

Time for that rear seat upgrade

[@octopus680]

We Didnt get to listen to that V8 Perkins much -listen the one in my Bmc recovery and Ford Tipper 😉

[@SeaKing61]

All that and we didn't even get to see the ice cream!

[@Taggart00]

@SeaKing61 or the hash browns they had for breakfast

[@SeaKing61]

@@Taggart00 what else are they hiding from us?

[@petejones9755]

I remember when all fire engines were called Dennis 😆

[@jimbarchuk]

Highlight reel: 7:08 with a great still at 7:19.

[@bungle6668]

What happening with Redruth then?? Ive likely missed any updates, but it seems AGES since we have seen anything of her!

[@bentullett6068]

Next year you should take Jupes to Snetterton for the truck racing and see if you can put her on display?

[@lmm]

That would be fun! I'll look into it

[@bethjongee1546]

Where do you by a vintage vehicle like this?

[@thomosevans]

Ebay or Facebook

[@bentullett6068]

​@thomosevans also specialist sales or auctions. Usually the M.O.D sales have fire engines, old trucks, plant equipment and armoured vehicles for sale.

[@Taggart00]

Were was the ice cream?

[@garyhardwick8489]

Think I'll buy an old fire engine and go for an ice cream!

[@lmm]

Highly recommend it

[@garyhardwick8489]

@@lmm I'd prefer a bus though!

[@bethjongee1546]

You sure James Bond wasn’t parked by that Citroën DS 23

[@johnthomson789]

When do you think that you will be bringing the other fire engine back to it work life because you have own drive it once and then left it to rest in peace and forget it 🎉

I realize that what we see here on the channel is a very carefully-filtered subset of the actual IRL, and that in particular, a lot of the 'production' stuff that goes into crafting that appearance and making the filtration happen, is hidden away -- but I can't help but be a little envious. As much as we all might want to think, "there but for the grace of God" (or whomever) -- the fact is, it's not that simple. There's a lot more to starting a channel like this than simply having a couple of chaps around to hold a camera whilst one rattles gums or wrenches engines. Remember, please, that while self-deprecation keeps one's humility in place, it's really not the best choice for that -- I'm guilty of that myself, as well as overindulging in such remarks, whilst forgetting to lift myself up, later, elsewhere, which is almost even easier to be guilty of. Moments like the one in this video should be cherished, and while I know you say you did -- I hope you took a moment to genuinely be proud of yourself and to recognize just what it took to get here. As much as you present this as, just a simple day's out to get an ice cream, it really is so much more than that. I know I'm proud of you. I wish I could do the same stuff you do -- I can't. Right now I'm having so much trouble just getting doctors to do their jobs that I couldn't stand up long enough to get an ice cream if I was there with you. So, hey, enjoy the show -- but feel good about yourself as well, for being able to share the smile of it with us via LMM. It's quite the accomplishment. Oh, and have a second scoop for me, if you can :3
