Either his ‘57 Chevy Bel air that he street raced or his Kharman Ghia. We can forget about the ‘76 DeVille.

Love this channel. Been a subscriber for about 6 months now. So cathartic and enjoyable at the same time.

This is a great way to show how an Indian company can bring back a dying brand. With the recent purchase of Norton by an India-based company, I can’t wait to see what they do and I REALLY REALLY hope they’re successful, like RE has been coming back to the market here in the US.

May your future bring you many more servants and personal submarines.

Not a car but a motorcycle. 1970 Ducati 750 Supersport. I’m not a big cafe racer fan but the lines are just so pretty.

The more you know...

I didn’t know it was a mid-century modern chair. Furniture is not an interest of mine.

I had no idea those kind of chairs were popular decades ago.

Not sure if it makes sense, but what about setting up beds in schools that are closed? Obviously they’d need to be disinfected prior to resuming school but those are lots of buildings currently closed with lots of space inside for beds.

18Hp? I think my daughter’s Little Tikes foot-powered car can outpace that. Pretty cool bit of history though!

4th: Bring on the failure of ethanol! That stuff sucks to use in all my small engines all the way up to my motorcycles. Going out of my way to the station that sells ethanol-free is a real PITA.

Fewer fires but the gremlins do love their British wiring harnesses and components.

I’ll bring the jar of Magic Smoke

He needs a thorough introduction to Mr. Lucas.

Indeed. In the 70's, positive ground was common for British cars and motorcycles. Having clear understanding of which you are working with meant avoiding potential fires and headaches.

I’m restoring a 1972 British motorcycle that has positive ground. The tricky part  is that a lot of people swap these over to negative ground so I have to be clear with EVERY electrical component which version I’m buying and installing to avoid losing that magic smoke.

That front mudguard is pretty short. Do you find the engine getting hit with a lot of road debris?

Where was this? Triangle?

From your ride, what would be the maximum speed limit roads you’d feel comfortable riding on? What speed traffic do you think would make it feel TOO small?

Not entirely sure as those regulations have been around for a looooong time. My guess is they were enacted when they cared more about the leg space than the upper living space.
