Wasn’t sure where to put this, so figured here will do. I run a small YouTube channel and have decided to take on making my first proper series of videos and as it’s all about working on my kit car I figured you guys might be interested. The first video of the series is below. Hope you all enjoy it, if you do please give it a like and consider subscribing to the channel.

Well done - looking forward to the bodywork vids as I am going to be helping a friend to make his sevens bodywork soon!
Subscribed as well

Thank you someone has pointed out to me that the speech was a bit quiet compared to the music so will make sure that’s corrected in the next video.

The bodywork should be good fun, never done anything quite like it before though so could go horribly wrong!

Cool, looking good, will have to pop down to see how it's going ... if u get stuck for material for your video you can always come over and do a bit of mine with me :-)

You’re always welcome Andy. How are you getting on with yours?

Kids and work got in the way Next job is to get the Pinto cleaned up and in, hopefully just needs a cleanup, new gasket set ... got new std cam for it and Ally sump to go on it.

Chassis is all rolling and steering, brakes mostly in, electrics partially wired

Just need to generate some free time to dedicate to it....need some motivation ... your vids may just give me that, would be good to come and take a look at how it's going for some inspiration

I’m working from home these days so just give me a shout when you are free and you are welcome to come take a nosey.

Part two now on youtube

Part 3 just uploaded

Not going to get much time to work on the kit this weekend, so this weeks video is here a little earlier

Short one this week but part 6 is here

Making fibreglass parts in the kitchen while your wife is out at her works Christmas do isn’t the genius idea that it sounds...

a lack of the right parts turning up at the right time meant I didnt achieve a whole lot this week.

This is also the last video for the year, but will back from 7th January!

Oops, I'm a day late! FINALLY got round to sorting the rear dampers and was shocked by what I found

New video time!

This week, I reveal whats in the box, and whats inside whats in the box 😂 I also start work on the rear arches and start on a quick release hinged bonnet setup.

An episode full excuses about why I haven’t made much progress

Later than planned but part 14 is here

Who knew lock wire was so sharp?! Wont make that mistake again!

The bodywork has been a bit neglected recently, time I sorted that out!

It's time for Plan B

whats your plan for fixing the cossie 4 pots on ?

they aren't a strait fit on anything except the special 2wd cossie uprights (threads are in the cossie hubs and its M12 not M10) and the 283mm discs have different offsets too...

Expletives. Wish I’d known that before I bought them! Presumed they’d bolt straight on. Will have to have a look and see what’s what.

finally some visible progress! Project cars are never finished part Twenty

I really do hate wiring, buts going to be worth it

IM ALIVE! Not only am I alive, but so is the car! Latest video is on YouTube now!

We're finally starting to tune the turbo pinto! We have really only rescaled the map that was on the old setup at the moment, but she is running sweet and really surprising us with the way it is making power. Here is a sneak peek from the weekend, full video soon

Well, its been a while.... Finally back with some progress and updates!

FINALLY, we've done some proper tuning on the turbo pinto!  There is more to come, but this isn't a bad start ​​​​​​​

Duck did you once own a Rotrex fed Honda Blackbird ?

Can’t say i did. kit car wise always been this car in its various pinto powered guises, and never owned a motorbike

I have a Rotrex Blackbird engine, and I once got chatting with a bike owner who said he had the only Rotrex engine in the UK. He called himself the duck.

Wondered if the duck had moved onto the cars.....

Ah ok, no not me

Well, this wasn't the job I intended to be working on today, but progress is progress.

I really want 4 pots...

Last picture I took before the chassis was taken away, was a bitter sweet moment




I have one final video to come, a kind of celebration of the kit, which will be out Christmas Eve. For now though, here is a teaser for the next project.




If people want me to, I will start a new thread and continue posting the videos on here.
