[@peterdennehy4659]

Great videos.them bottom steps looked the job but bad design.shes looking massive.fair play to ye.

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Got to agree with you they look great but design is terrible they have been a pain in the behind to get right, appreciate you watch thanks.

[@jamesashton5820]

That’s a really nice Red 👌🏻

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Thanks James, it ended up fully Red by accident, Someone ordered to much paint 🤷🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♂️😂

[@aidanmyles6120]

Lovely truck thanks for sharing, your videos have greatly improved lately keep up the great content really enjoying the channel.

[@daleharrison7679]

Just finished watching the series, brilliant effort well done.

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Much appreciated, we are not professionals at all just took it on as a project that’s now turned into a KZbin Channel. See how it goes I suppose.

[@daleharrison7679]

Well you should be proud of your achievements and looking forward to seeing the little tractor getting finished👍

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Hopefully get back at it next weekend to fit new brake shoes, that should be fun 🤦🏻‍♂️.

[@daleharrison7679]

Look forward to it 👌🏻

Over from tiktok haha Just watched the whole series its looking great , hopefully see it out and about soon only up the road as well nice to see the local lads on here. The little jobs make all the difference, needing jobs done is one thing but the little annoying bits always annoy much more. Awesome truck, Only just passed my class c and on the job hunt before getting the c+e booked in so probably never get to drive a working one, but would love to had a go at a project like this, not quite sure how the neigbours would feel about a truck parked in the carpark outside but I guess there is only one way to find out !

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Thanks for coming over to the channel. Aye it started as bit of a joke but I’ve stuck with it and folk seem to be enjoying the content, well done passing your class 2 and I’m sure I could arrange a drive in my scania some time for you 👍🏻

[@SquireDAF]

@@RedShedProjectsScotland Its great to watch its not somebody that is trying to make a "good" video its just working on interesting stuff. Thank you very much, took some time but got there, and that is an incredibly generous offer would love to take you up on that sometime Thank you!

[@jasong4388]

Great build series...Currently working on a 164/580..cant believe how difficult its been for parts. 30 mins is great.

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

It’s a labour of love eh Jason, took me roughly year to get it to this point, are you posting any videos of your build ? Be great to see it.

[@jasong4388]

@@RedShedProjectsScotland Ive got a few vids & pics so might throw something together. Nearly a year for me. Mines nearly back together now. Picked up new Durabrights for her this morning. Interior is next thing cause mine is hanging...

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

We have a Facebook group same name as our KZbin channel if you want to Chuck up a few photos that would be great 👌🏻

[@jasong4388]

@@RedShedProjectsScotland Ok will have a look pal..

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Thanks for taking the time to watch this video, I have a question for you the viewers. Do you prefer Shorter videos around 10-15 minutes or longer videos 30mins plus? really new to this recording what I’m up to with all these projects and any feedback on this one would be appreciated. Also how do you find the content on the channel? Is it interesting/entertaining?. Don’t forget to forget to like the video and Subscribe to the channel if you do.

[@jch2211]

Personally for me around 30 minutes however your the chap with the tools & toys so it's up to you! Keep up the good work, she looks well 👍

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

@@jch2211 thanks for that. I prefer videos myself around the 20-30 minutes. Difficult squeezing a full job into 15. Doesn’t look to bad for being painted in an old shed.

[@iainwilson4483]

Video's of around 20-30 mins would be spot on. Great to see a 4 Series being loved keep up the hard work.

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Thanks for the feedback Ian. 👍🏻

[@vikahramcova1952]

the longer videos are much better 🤟

[@2uhairi]

oooo... thats how footstep work.. never seen one like that in my country 😂

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

They are quite cool 😎

[@2uhairi]

@@RedShedProjectsScotland of course it did 💯 nice done mate

[@danielsarstav7672]

Really good job! Really like the older scanias, how much hours do you think it has taken to get it to this point?

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Hi Daniel thanks for watching the videos, alway been fond of the old 4 series myself. Not quite sure how many hours (100's) but it was most weekends for a year and a few holiday weeks off work to see it through. I am sure professionals could finish one in a week or so depending on it condition We had no previous experience! only took it on as a project, the truck came from the company i work for.

[@Halloumiwaffle85]

Aye breaker spied ye northbound other morning there at Laurencekirk when I was leavin ma hoose 🤙🏻. Im oan a blue an silver next gen from up our wayish was pulling a half pipe bulker this week kerting up to abdn 😉

Fair project tho dude had some brilliant times back years ago when I was oan for mgs had the 4 series best truck I ever drove tbh, an she is still going yet lol ye see her now an then out doing local work in abdn.

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

@@Halloumiwaffle85 Turn out to be a much bigger project than we imagined but once your committed with the sand blaster there is no going back, credit to all those that chipped in to help could not have done it on my own. Aye Mgs have had great service from that old 4 series id say its paid for itself a few times over.

[@Halloumiwaffle85]

@@RedShedProjectsScotland aye that’s the thing like dude once ye start tae strip a motor it’s ether all or nothing lol be good tae see once she’s finished tho brkr 🤙🏻. Haha ye obviously know my old motor then! Aye she was some machine like was chipped tae 750horse at the wheels lol proper lorry my man!

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

I have heard that thing could boogie! wouldn’t mind a burst in it to see how many horses are still living, I’d say most are.

[@malcookie]

My steps are exactly the same. This has saved me head some scratchin 😂. Did you ever get the top bit to sit in flush?

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

We ended up having to bend it up slightly using the forklift, rough but it definitely helped so be gentle following my advice 😂👍🏻.

[@malcookie]

@@RedShedProjectsScotland 😂🤣👍

[@marknewell7355]

A nice white LED flood light would look mint tucked up under there for when you open door

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Few lads have a scania light that shines on the ground once opened, quite a nice touch 👌🏻

[@ianinnes8063]

Hi great vid . Who had this motor before it came to bb . Is that ene bein sold off . I did think it was maybe the ex john lawrie motor . Shed mak somebody a gd local motor for caain timber etc . Somebody who wid tak care of the old dear .

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Your correct in your thinking Ian it is indeed an ex John Lawrie. I bought it last year and restored it with my brother. If you look back at our videos you will see most it being done.

[@davie2606]

Is that an Ex JC Innes Huntly motor?

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

No David it’s an ex John Lawrie then BB Christoffersens, then I bought it last year.

[@jimrichards3916]

DAF battery on a Scania?

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Not the best look I admit Jim😂 it’s needing two new batteries but it’s not doing much so il wait till after winter and fit new ones before it’s tested.

[@TMGUKLTD]

I have one to restore did you have the chassis sandblasted ?

[@RedShedProjectsScotland]

Thanks for subscribing to the channel, yes we blasted it ourselves in house and replaced rear cross members as they were in poor shape.
