Very nice.

Bro make a bunnker in the tunnel

really cool love these videos

couple of nice old land rovers there. never douted the mighty 200tdi. nice work

Colin furze sent me and I think I'll stay :)

what is the purpose of your bunker

The fact you can get this running again is absurd! Great job!

Reit good video!! Excellent stuff!! Nice 😎💪

I think you should add a pair of cables/chains to the tray of the elevator so the weight is distributed and not concentrated on the hinges that can deform with time.

Cool I don't think the land Rover pursuits would be very happy with you because you put a land rover engine in a vehicle which isn't a land rover but who cares what they think.

Dead engine: is rotting... Dave with wooden block: it's resurrection time!

Mate, you're just a genius. There's no other word for it.

Really enjoyed watching that 👍👍👍👍👍

Nice video, It was good to see how kind of simple that was to fix with the knowledge and how it works with the head off. Most people wouldn’t have a clue including me.

It is too shallow. Nuclear war requires at least a few dozen meters of depth underground, otherwise it will be ineffective.

Is it possible to cry and laugh with admiration? The environment that you are getting this done in is…astounding. So glad you are bringing us along…and like you said…sometimes you just do it because “…it would be funny”.

As an ex-mechanic I have to confess I was doubting you'd get it going again - props to you sir!

When I started watching this video, I had Peter Green's 'Oh Well' playing in my head as background music ;-), could be your theme tune if copywrite allowed it, I do love the Project and I also Peter green's Fleetwood |Mac is one of my favourites, sorry to go off topic but I am in a happy mood, and now to continue watching. D

Nice work Dave 🏆 Keep digging

I find it so fascinating, what it would be like to spend a day in Dave’s brain, all that knowledge and cool/mad ideas flying round.

nice vid Dave... thanks for sharing. :-)

Found that absolutely fascinating such knowledge and skill, brilliant video

Holy cow, there's a ton of water in that thing...

Is there a way to restore the rust and such on the dumper to make it shiny and new looking? I think there's a huge RUclips audience for restoration style videos like that

I dunno about other people but yapping in engineering speak about and engine is kinda boring. I come for diggy hole not technical details. Watching you work with timelapses, maybe a bit of music. An overview of whats going on like the sheet metal stuff is good. Engine no workie, engine rusty, time-lapse, engine not rusty and workie. Move on. Anyway, not trying to complain just what i would personally prefer in case you care.

One of the best “will it start” videos…I’d have bet the house that it wouldn’t have started!

You're no Allen Millyard but it's certainly entertaining watching things get bodged together.

That was brilliant to watch! I'm so impressed with your skills. Thank you for sharing

I liked that pristine engine rebuild more than the bunker 😂. Thanks for not leaving us hanging and actually driving it 👍🏻. I hope there will be more sandpaper engine revisions from the yard in the future! 🔥😆.

It's ALIIIIVE!!!! Absolutely spot on!

very impressed

Sounds better with no exhaust just have the smoke out the manifolds like a Spitfire, maybe even do v8 conversion that would sound good v8 dumper!

Coming from someone with zero mechanical skills, this was like witnessing an actual resurrection. Incredible. 😂I bet that sludge smelled great when you dumped it though...🤢

Nice job getting the old engine firing again. Love seeing people putting the effort in to getting old gear working. This is another reason for following your exploits on here. Great work mate.

Good morning, Dave, I love how nature has taken over the dumpy with Alge and moss. Here in Oz, you would have found a couple of very large snakes living under the bonnet, along with large amounts of snake poo. I must admit, you will be very handy to have around for End of DayZ or the Zombie apocalypse. Cheers PS, I would love a dumpy, but down here they are like rocking horse poo.

Fuck me, that’s brutal! 😂😂

Brilliant, top notch bodging, we had a seized bodgeford with a 2 pot lister, 2 of us hanging off an 8ft scaffold pole on a socket bent the pole but it did free it in the end, my mate made some wizzard penetrating oil mixing ATF & Acetone, shoulda marketed that stuff proper alchemy better than anything I've ever used from a can lol

This man Really Is a 'jack of all trades' !

Looks like an old Thwaites dumper, brilliant company for parts is David Cornwallis
