I think people certainly had more imagination back then if nothing else. I think many cars now have the potential but people have lost the art of using their imagination. That's why it's good to see the cars at this show as people are still building these older cars to display.

Definitely. The cars made today seem to of lost this art

Yeah definately. Not so many seen on the road but at shows it great to see them

Ah yeah lovely motor chap. It's great to see so many cars back out. I have one car (corsab) being rebuilt (see other videos) and mine was the Transit with tron lines on the balcony. Be good to catch up next year if your there come say hello.

@@thealchemist638 ah cool! Yeh, defo! I need to mingle more next time and get chatting to people! Transit is cool 😎 I’m getting the Cav back out, in honour of Nicky who built it. He used to show it all the time, then it was off the road for a few years, then he showed it once last year, before I bought it off him in Feb this year. It needs a fair bit or resto work now, as it’s 20 odd years since it was painted! I’ll have a nosy at your other vids. I’ve just uploaded a reveal vid for my Cav as I’ve not revealed it to the channel until now.

@R1CH130 nice, I'll keep my eyes out and hope yo see you at the next one then

Glad you approve

😁 always a pleasure to see everyone again thank you 🤍

It was so good sorry you missed this one hope to see you soon.

@@thealchemist638 cheers Dan,hopefully we catchup soon👊

Nathan has done well to bring the pink Corsa B back from where it was, it was in a bit of a mess stored with windows down so damp had got in etc, only ever did 2 shows back in the day and Modified Nationals was one of them. A shame Xqusite don't produce stuff anymore they were producing some truly epic stuff as you say glad to see a lot more than we think has managed to be saved each year, people dig it back out. The purple Corsa C is owned by a chap called Max and I have to say I really love this build I was always a B man myself so was never a massive C fan but this one is truly done well. Glad you enjoyed.

@@thealchemist638 Thanks for the reply 👍 Yeah I remember only ever seeing it in the flesh at the 1 show then it just vanished, I just figured it had been parted out or stolen or something; was amazed to see it appearing in vids! Fair play to the chap who owns it now for bringing it back to life. Will keep my eye on this channel, best of luck with your own Corsa build (had an arden blue B as my first car so it's always good to see em getting some love). 😎

@BeanieRob so Nath bought it from a couple of brothers from what i understand. They also have a couple of other projects tucked away. He has really done it justice in restoring it to how it was. He has more plans for it just from a convo we had recently so watch out for it. My Corsa will be hopefully out next year there's still much to do on the exterior and we will build the interior once that's finished but it is something I've tried to share as I know people enjoy a good work in progress.

Thanks Ste 😁

👌

Yeah lovely bit of history

That's Gordon's he'll be at The Reunion again.

A good bit of history that

Mine stay on absolutely fine, the solid blue ones I first had in this video and the colour changing set I now have sorry to hear you had issues.

Thanks 👍

No I never had this problem with the static blue coloured DRL units. I now have colour changing ones which allow me to change them so I can pass MOT. My advise here would be to message Autobeam on Facebook and ask if there is a way this can be resolved. Have you tried your standard DRL units back in the vehicle to make sure its not a fault with the vehicle also. Hope you get this sorted.

@@thealchemist638 Tried the standard DRL, it dims when signal and back to full after. Messaged them on their website but nth yet. Thanks for your help. For the color changing one I see review saying the DRL is barely visible in day as the brightness is fairly weak, seems mostly for night use, are urs too?

Yeah the colours and white are faint in the day but it was only the effect at night I'm after to go with underglow. If your standard units do it then there has to be a fault with van itself surely. Nothing to do with AB. Use Facebook to message them they always suggest.

Thanks for subbing chap hope you enjoy the channel

We will have another chance to see all these in July so I'll be sure to make another video this year also.

Do you mean the Angel Eye Headlights?

Good feedback and will be worked on for future videos thank you

Thanks dude yeah I enjoyed it see you soon

👊

Should be able to buy anywhere online. Just search Corsa B Angel Eye Headlights

I'll pass your comments on its a nice car. I've never been well into Jap myself but wouldn't be without them in the scene for sure

@thealchemist638 My daily driver is basically the same car but just stock plus, I have a mix of American and Japanese cars, I pretty much like all cars lol I was growing up what this style was everywhere and it takes me back that's probably what I like the most, and the level of quality.

😅 I'll pass this on

@@thealchemist638 🤣

No sorry not something I'm familiar with

Thank you it will hopefully look really good once done

Should of, could of, but I have this if your not keen you don't have to watch buddy.

@thealchemist638 I really love the kit on it but I'm looking for a old astra I can modify

@truth.hurts... which one are you looking at? Get on Facebook or Instagram on some of the Max Power pages and have a look they seem to be few and far between but people often post up ones for sale, trawl through market place even if you buy a standard one and then build it from there its going to be another saved and loved once more. I've had a soft spot for an Astra D or Astra G for many years and agree lovely cars. Lots of places finding old moulds and remaking the kits now also the scene is very much coming back. It's just knowing where to look.

@@thealchemist638 no one has the one I want I think its the mk3 one in red

@@truth.hurts... buy one and build it, paint it red I guess is the only way

I think you're looking way too far into it 😆. Mate I tell you what we can do a video at the show. If not , before and you can talk me through the whole car and tell me your best bits. You can have your own video.

​@@thealchemist638😂😂 sorry mate just couldn't resist 😅

@phatfiesta1 😁 I plan to do some more videos with people so your top of the list.

​@@thealchemist638😂😂 no probs mate but I'm only joking 😉

@@phatfiesta1 I know

Everyone has their preference and thats why the show caters for everyone it's not all about 1 type of car.

More and more seem to be appearing as well so it's great news.

I know it's a repost from a while back minus the sound. I did mention tbis on the description if you scroll through my older videos the music is there on the previous video but due to copyright I have edited the sound out

Yep well aware of that the DRL units are colour changing so white when driving on the road.

Thanks bud. I did have a completely different design for it but went the simple route in the end and ran out of paint. More arrived yesterday for me to finish it off. Did you just clear coat over once done or leave as was. It's good paint for sure 👌🏻

@@thealchemist638 clear coated the pug the wetsanded the hell out of it to get it how it is,didn't come up to badly to be honest,we gave it 3 coats of lacquer

I'll get back on it t once paint arrives

👋 Hello 👋 ☺️

Gotta break away from the same thing everyone does and do something different and make them fit 💪

Yeah Opel Chevvy. Or If it was in Australia it would be a Holden Barina. Strange they have many names for the different markets really.

Thank you for watching

Not at all just an upgrade

I guess it's up to you really. Where you want to go with the build and what money you'd like to spend. Easy little jobs like, rear lights, stereo, mirrors mayhe?? How do you plan the car to look once finished?

Cheers bud

Cheers for this. And to you too you've got some great builds 💪

Thanks buddy 😊

It's getting there slowly.

Always a nice edition to a build, as with most I see the throttle cable kinda loops over the top of the engine but have found a way it can be changed to hide that if you do it hit me up I'll put you in touch with a man who can explain it.

Yeah it's coming along Not sure what you meant about the wheels though chap.
