Youtube moments

London chod spotting. Anyone know what the (presumably Post Office) van is at 0:46?

I tried various reg combos  as it's unclear - KJ?213P or is it MJ?213P

Because a surprising number of people have a room-temperature IQ, and the medium of Youtube allows them to project their idiocy onto your computer screen.

339k views. Channel exposure to get more subs. All increases revenue etc.

It's just an advertising cost. It SHOULD pay for itself quickly then have continued benefits later.

$0.18 x 339000 is $61k, don't know how much that car was but you get the idea. 

I personally don't like it but it is what it is,

While getting dewy eyed over bits of Jackanory I came across this bit of telly I'd not seen at the time. Not only is it quite funny in a Happy Shopper Python sort of a way there is no shortage of chod to spot.

Today's Brum may contain scenes of a sensitive nature.

If you haven't seen it (very unlikely) watch Mayall reading George's Marvellous Medicine. Perhaps the greatest bit of kid's telly ever.

I've been watching a lot of this guy lately. He restored a total basket case SD1 police car a few years ago on retro ride and is restoring various things including rover 200 with a t series and an SD1 diesel.

Its very raw but he's got skills using the same basic tools as you or i but it reminds me of the good old days* of rolling around under sd1's

Has anyone seen "matt's offroad recovery" channel? It's compulsive viewing and just how an american autoshiter would do vehicle recovery.

The chap is an inspiration. I watched a lot of his videos before I bit the bullet with welding my Lada.

How is that gong? I (and your other fan)  would like to see an update on your thread please.

Ha! I have more fans than friends now!

It's alright to be honest, shaky start with welding which I will go in to on the video (if I remember). I've welded a hole, and I've got to weld the chassis arm thingy bob on top of it. I want to do that tomorrow evening if the wife permits me, as I'm also sound proofing the house and sorting out our fireplace she made me rip out a few months ago.

He's also a good singer too. The video before this one he's driving his Muira in Italy and is singing Days Like These.
