Youtube hearted comments of Andy Saunders (@andysaunders3708).

  1. I had a problem with epoxy, and found that when mixing it on cardboard packaging, it dragged some sort of wax coating off the surface, and the damn glue wouldn't stick properly. Mixing it on a bit of clean scrap sheetmetal stopped that happening. For what it's worth.

  2. Please lose the flashing Skills Panda logo - it's bloody distracting.

  3. Weird. Over the years, I've had nothing but trouble from Mercurys. Your excellent video has made me realise how innovative they were, and I'll take another look at them.

  4. I dunno. I personally like them, but NZ Fire and Emergency say they, (and the trucks), are seriously troublesome. Could be that they want a pay rise, and are going on strike as a result. Maybe their trucks are under -specced? Dunno. I still think they are mighty nice machines.

  5. Nice job, and a very instructive clip.

  6. With that level of radiation, how the hell do you service or repair any part of the truck outside the capsule?

  7. Best keep it as your daily. See if you can double the mileage.

  8. Man, you look happy and RELAXED. You earned that.

  10. That looks suspiciously like a Mazda 121, or it's Ford stablemate. Shit, you just pointed that out. "Tied up in bed together". Kinky. Must be the cataclysmic perverter. Tiny cars are fun! I have an old Mazda Demio - bloody great, goes like the clappers, (VVTI), and SO easy to park. Neat.

  11. No more Beemers, my man.

  12. That must be the GL version - It has a tach!!!

  15. Actually, aren't Kia and Hyundai now one entity?

  16. The Chrysler 383 was the baby of the available engines, but it was very, very fast, by 1969 standards.

  17. I saw heaps of these in NZ as a kid, but they were all A50s., and of course he slightly longer-tailed A55. Never an A40...

  18. 270 bhp with Carter 2 BBL carb. Still mental once it got moving. 80 to 100 mph in seconds. Used less fuel than my 6 cyl. Holden Torana. Go figure.

  19. Looks like a Morris Oxford heater control...

  20. We had A60 panel vans and pickups here too, based on the original shape of that thing, with a different grille, and the 1622cc engine. They rusted like bastards, so If they existed in the UK, I bet you couldn't find one...

  21. Forgot to say, I think that the early Hillman Avengers could be a challenger for tiniest, most basic instrument cluster.

  22. I've had a few WJ/WG Grand Cherokee Overlands, with the High-Output 4.7 V8. I also had a ZJ/ZG Orvis Edition with the 4.0 six. They have some problems of their own, those engines. I put 3 replacements in. Last one had done 75000 miles, with FSh. Died in 3 month. They'll just lock up solid, no matter how kind you are to them with servicing. Yes, the 4.7 V8 was a flawed engine, randomly dropping valve seats, but the 265 bhp WJ Overland had a bodyshell designed by Porsche, and was the last of the live axles. Articulate? Articulate!!!! The 4 litre used more fuel than the 4.7 V8. 4.0 is not the best. Jeep is not the best. Chrysler is not the best.

  23. Sounds like it has at least 1 dodgy CV?
