- Here we showcase Ivan's 10 litre 1914 Indy 500 Peugeot race car special. Take some time to learn a little about the car, and watch it be prepared for the Chateau Impney Hill Climb.
This is better than the mainstream TV car programmes!
Way better!
And no fake click-bait drama.
Not a car buff by any means, but it's a sheer delight to watch a self-deprecating, drole, creative master at work. In a small way takes me back to watching my dad do car repairs in the 50's and 60's. Brilliant stuff, keep 'em coming!
Ivan I am 70 years old and after watching your video I've decided that I want to grow up to be just like you. Growing up on a farm taught me early on how to make common sense repairs like the ones you have shown. Very entertaining and informative. Thank you for taking the time to do this my friend and I hope to see many more videos from "Ivan's Shed".
Thanks for the feedback everyone. We will be making more videos in the near future! take care everybody
Great news! This 1st one's an excellent presentation; very well executed, thankyou 💖both!
Hi everybody at the shed mick from oldham love the video please keep em coming
I have enjoyed every episode and look forward to new ones. I live about 150 miles south of Indianapolis. Grew up listening to the 500 on the radio as it was not on television. My beater is a 1955 Chevrolet 210 four door. It has the original 235 six cylinder with the Powerglide transmission. I am presently replacing a broken timing gear -- a friend is bringing over an engine hoist tomorrow.
Finally restoration videos done by someone who knows what he's talking about. Keep them coming. Cheers
Ivan, you are a treasure, I've been around long enough to appreciate your skills at making old stuff continue to work.
What a nice video from a gentleman who has been able to enjoy a lifetime with his cars. Thank you!
Thanks very much for looking, new video coming soon..
That shifting rod bushing is sloppier than a saddle on a sow, I’m “82”years young really enjoyed your videos 👍
What a wonderful machine...I once sat in Ray Harroun’s 1911 Indy winner, a Marmon, and I mentioned to the curator that the steering box was very worn...a couple of inches of play on center.....he told me that this was normal and within specifications.....can’t imagine the courage it must have taken to drive these things at 80 or 90 mph at the Brickyard on tires you wouldn’t put on a bicycle today.
PLEASE keep making videos. Your stories and your experience are priceless. Thank you from far across the Pond!
Wonderful Ivan. Something tells me you are going to become as much of a legend as your cars.
I don't know if anyone has suggested this yet, but it seems like the distributor caps could be 3D printed without too much difficulty. You'd still have to fit the conductors into them, but the plastic would be there.
Just recently found your channel Ivan, I'm hooked! I found it via the two cylinder mini engine video.
Please do include some 'life story' bits, I'm sure there's a few cracking tales in that bonce of yours!
These guys film the stuff you don't often see on these old cars. Loved the footage of the car on the track! Imagine racing on those skinny tires back in the day! Keep up the fine work gents.. 🙂
finally someone teaches us pre-war vehicle restoration techniques that know what they do, how could it be otherwise English restorers, keep it up, thanks for teaching us how to work correctly, good job.👏💪👍🧑🔧
Ivan I came here from the 2 cylinder mini engine. What a treat, thankyou.
OMG! all the eye candy in the background. LOVE IT!
Magic keep it coming I just love seeing old race cars and especially when they are getting repaired and going again 👍
Why does this channel not have hundreds of thousands of subscribers, please keep this content coming, pure gold
Copy and paste the video url to your own facebook page. We'll soon get his subs up 👍
That's good stuff Ivan and very useful. Nice to hear someone talking about the issues we all face with keeping cars running and some neat ideas how to solve them.
Excellent Ivan, only problem is that I've wasted a morning watching your stuff instead of working on mine!
Great channel , recommended to me by my 15yr old son, so you are definitely reaching the younger generation.
Absolutely great ! Watching the movie by having a cup of tea I smiled at the point when teatime came.
Ivan, thank you so much! I love cars, real cars, not the dehumanisation that is the 'modern' car. We have a 2CV, she's amazing, designed by humans and built by hand. Like the car in this video, she is mechanical, analog, not digital and sheer magic to drive. The whole car can be dismantled to the last nut and bolt. Todays cars have achieved what the car was originally meant to be, reliable forms of personal transport, but sadly, they lost so much in the process. Please post more videos!
Best channel on RUclips, bar none
Thanks Ivan, absolutely love this era of race cars.
You are a Treasure, Ivan. An Obviously Handy sort of Bloke. There used to be a gentleman in Massachusetts USA named N B Pease who had All the Best, rare and vintage parts. He helped me out a couple of times. Thanks again for your video's!!
My buddies grandfather, George Clark raced in and finished the 1913 Indy 500. These were real men.
8:24 he wasn't kidding about the handling. Great turn in, no understeer. Amazing
What a wonderful man! I could listen to him for hours and hours and never tire of it
Awesome Ivan. I love your cheerful & playful banter; and "make it go right lucky ingenuity" !!!. "Time for a Row" I can see it on a sign. Workshop motto. Hahaha
Ivan, you are one inspirational man, yes yes yes, more videos please 👴🏻👍
Great Video’s Ivan. Love to hear your stories. Also love the old ladies, great technology! Thanks!!
Fascinating stuff Ivan. Thanks very much for making it. More please!
I don't know how this popped up in my feed, but I'm so glad it did.
This is an amazing channel.
I'm coming up on 73 in a few days and I wish my dad was still alive to share your channel with .. He did his apprenticeship at Vulcan Foundries in the UK and we always had cars in the yard in various stages of repair.

My late father's oldest employee at his manufacturing firm, he used a Hall-Scott engine in a hydrofoil lake racer back in the early 1950s.
Absolutely fabulous i could listen all day to such historic racing stories with a man who knows exactly what's he talking about what a wealth of racing you have please keep the stories coming your a one off Sir D.
OMG I love Ivan! I also love that Miura in the background.....
Hello from Australia, I have recently discovered this gem and spent time over Easter watching your videos, awesome content and of course British humour, please keep the videos coming.
It's taken me 2 and a half years to discover you and subscribe and I'm so glad I did as the work you do is mesmerising to me. In lockdown you can enjoy a cathartic release from your videos and I wonder now how long it will be to see cars such as your cars thundering down the tarmac again and to get a whiff of the exhaust and tyre smoke? I can't understand why you don't have many more subscribers.
Really enjoyed this video. Good honest content from an obvious innovative expert.
keep the vids coming, good SIR! Just inspiring. Love vintage racers and the resourcefulness of enthusiasts.each special is made so unique
Thank you for introducing us to these fantastic cars! Their history and especially the interior working of their engines and various bits and pieces, which in a lot of cases we would never get to see!
Well done Ivan. It's beautiful. Good on you for restoring this old girl.
I tripped over your channel earlier in the week and have now seen all of your videos, the first one being the last! With out question you are an exceptional gentleman in many many respects and still have the joie de vivre of an irresponsible young man. Your videos are a fascinating insight into a different age and the techniques you show are remarkable, welding a mini crank for the 2 cylinder. Alan Milliard is another gentleman who seemingly achieves the impossible in a shed. Keep it up your posts are hugely appreciated
Outstanding video. I was just reading about Barney Oldfield earlier today. He drove a Delage against the Puegeots in 1916.
Fabulous video. I'm rapidly getting through all the videos you've made. It's interesting to see your first one.
Keep them coming please! Thanks very much.
Don't know if you were there or not but about 10 years ago I went to Oulton Park where they had a vintage racing day, racing vehicles just like this and I thought it was bonkers people were still racing these old machines (I mean giving them the beans, driving them like they stole them) and you could go in to the pits and see these machines up close. I was extremely impressed and have a lot of respect for you guys keeping this up.
Thanks for the Tickover heads up. I’ve got a 72 GT Capri that’s been in the family since new car warranty. She needs some love and attention....
Pick up Mary to make the tea! “Obviously” 👏👏👏😂😂 love you’re videos. You remind me of a good friend now passed called Sid Pettit who was a Bentley Boy since the age of nine. Keep them coming. Regards Simon. 👍
Love what you do. I've just sent a link to my dad too. It's been a few years since we ripped out and swapped 3litre engines andvthe like and then solved all the niggling problems that no one else ever seemed to get . There's nothing like a fifteen minute job that keeps you thinking for a few days.
Cheers.
Just stumbled on your Videos Ivan, great content, particularly enthralling, really interesting and great engineering expertise 🇦🇺
Just going through from the beginning having discovered the Mini Engine project. Absolutely excellent.
Funny jab at the car programs "must have a row and storm out" lol
That mans a legend racing that car round there
The forefather of the Miller/Offenhauser/Meyer-Drake. Spectacular, thanks.
Can't wait for more
Great that Ivan embraces knowledge from any of about 10 decades. I like the Capri spring bit. Presumably Ivan is still involved with classic Fords. I got some 9" drum brake bits from Tickover a couple of years ago. Helpful people in Dartford.
Good on you Ivan, I've just sold my 1930 Sunbeam because at 80 yrs old I didn't think I would ever finish it - you are an inspiration, keep up the good work, love your 'shed'
I've watched lots of your videos now. All interesting stuff and love your stories.
14:43 crazy glue and baking soda. As an aside, Ivan, I sent your link to Jay Leno"s Garage. I would love to see the two of you collaborate!
Wonderful. Lovely to watch and see how others approach an engineering challenge. Retired now I was a machinist, center lathes ,milling etc in a busy quarry based workshop for over 20 years. Had to be multi skilled in many disciplines, welding , heavy and light plant, static plant, vehicle repairs etc and design and build from scratch one off projects. Sadly many of these skills and incredible knowledge only gained from experience have been lost to in time to British Industry.
Loving this series guys so glad I found you.
What a wonderful "old school" channel, a delight to watch and learn from. Please make more videos. Thank you.
Ivan....thanks for giving me a ride at the weekend on the beast.
The video is good, but the real thing is even better!
Carry on the good work...
Ivan, you're a star. Excellent.
What we miss in our daily computer jobs. Finding a mechanical problem and solving it.
Just found your show on RUclips, WOW!!!!! what I find... absolutely brilliant, what with Tyrell’s Classic workshop, Project Binky(when they can bothered to post a video) and now Ivan’s Shed I’ve found a state of automotive nirvana..... can’t thank you enough Ivan, cheers.
Great video Ivan after you told me loads about the build Saturday afternoon at Bicester scramble.
I really enjoyed the half hour or so with you (&3 other guys)- I had a Aussie slouch hat on - you may remember!!
Thanks Ivan.
Excellent stuff, I've got a big grin after watching that.
So I can start at the beginning.. and know I've got a lot of entertainment coming my way. 🙂
Love it Ivan,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thank you Sir
Thankyou for standing in front of the 'Figaro' so we didn't have to look at it! Good video.
Just found this channel it’s mega and binge watching, we defo need more videos 👍.
I do hope others have been trained in your ways so that these cars can continue to stay in use. I'm now subscribed to your channel.
Just found your channel Ivan, I like the era so enjoyed very much it so far, I'm just finishing my 1928 Chevy single seat racer which has been fun.
Happened upon your channel just recently. Really enjoy your videos and learning some history. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and wit😊
Having just watched all the Shed Racing videos I'm starting all over. You can't get too much Ivan. (He's 30 years older than me, but I'm the 'old man'. Bugger)...
Fantastic! Keep them coming. Great presentation style. Made me start fixing up my old motorbikes. 1980's so not old by your standard.
Amazing channel. Thank you very much.
Obviously I enjoyed it immensely!
Take us touring through the countryside in an old RR or Bentley!
JIM
I discovered your channel the other day, and subscribed immediately. I have a real affection for vintage automobiles, and each episode I’ve seen so far has been fascinating. Very best wishes from Missouri, USA!
First time I've seen this. it was great, I'll be looking for some more now. Thanks.
GREAT JOB!!
Great video Ivan, Glad you’re still doing mad stuff , just like you did in the old days of Long Drive, Greenford.
Just need a "Row" in each episode and then Discovery or maybe Amazon, will pick it up. Wonderful content.
Thank you.
Delightful! I‘ve watched every one of your videos and anxiously await the next one.
Happy I found your channel. A delight!
Very interesting video so yes please to you making more of them ☺
Wonderful video! Wonderful.
Very interesting old stuff - thank you for this Video!
Ivan you are a diamond of a man
Just discovered this channel, it’s so good. Keep it up!
Hello Ivan , could you not find someone there in the UK to 3D print you some new distributor caps ?
You are a inspiration.
A brilliant first video, I look forward to more.
its men like this and his father that put the GREAT in Great Britain ,
Loved it. Hope to see many more. My only claim to vintage cars is my first car which was a 1933 MG J2 reg MG2021 which would have been great this year. Never thought I would live long enough to see this year. Think reg is on a merc now.
Very interesting subject, good sound & camera work, I m subscribed!
This is the first of your vids i,ve watched&very enjoyable it is.Thumbs up,i can already see you,ve made some more.(shed lol)
Thanks.
A breath of fresh air as regards your wonderful vlogs.Very entertaining and informative .I look forward to many more and the best of luck for the future WELL DONE SIR.
Great Video as per usual. I am pleased to see that like this Tinkering fool ( as in me.)
Ivan doesn't throw spare or leftover parts away. As you never know when you may have a need for that One item..!
It Drives my partner Nuts but it will save a Quid at some point down the Road..!
Real Mechanical Tinkering at it's best..! Eg. Done by Ivan, not me..!!
Cheers from Downunder. 😎
I want to know everything! Just enthralling.
