Christmas Special Version 2

- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- Our original Christmas video featured a poster of Gerry Marshall in 1974 surrounded by a bevvy of beauties. RUclips didn't like it.
So here we go with Version 2.
Update on the Offy, the Salmson and Merry Christmas.
Whilst others have put their feet up, Ivan and John have blasted, welded, primed and painted the Kurtis Kraft Offy chassis, done some reconfiguring of the clutch pedal - plus Ivan has done some serious thinking about getting a new crankshaft made for the Hall Scott - and is getting excited about what he might do with his blue Salmson.
Plus a lot of Ivan chat.
Merry Christmas to all our followers. We're looking forward to more adventures in 2025.
Also thanks for your support buying the merchandise - we've raised over £1250 for several charities
I love how the poster of Gerry and "the birds" snuck in there at the end...👏😎😆😆😆
And YT wouldn't allow that? Too sexy? Too sexist? Too pathetic.
youtube is getting more and more sharia compliant
Please remember they're somebody's grandmas now 🧐
A replica of Big Bertha is being built in Ireland now,and Im building a replica of Baby Bertha!
You have to admit....Shed Racing, like Christmas, is now a celebration of all that is good. Thank you all from, i think, all of your fans for fantastic content, filming, trouble shooting, and mind blowing historical events and insights. Just my favourite channel.
John is such a treasure! Suzie is absolute gold! You are blessed Ivan!
What understatements ❤
Merry Christmas to Susie, John, and Ivan plus all of your families! Getting your Race license again is the great thing to have at this part of you life! A Merry Christmas to all of "Shed Racing: fan Club !! We here in Alberta Canada wish all of you a great life! Cheers!
Noticed that a Lancia Aprilia has appeared. First behind the sandblaster then in the actual workshop. Would be good to get some focus on this car as well. Great stuff.
Thank you for the update from the Shed Racing Team! Ivan is spot on regarding his comments about early days racing in the States. There was much more of a grassroots presence represented in the classes. When my grandfather raced in the early days of the Hochkraeusen team, (1920's,- 1930's), there were many unlimited, (later outlaw) classes for the hillclimbs. It was often very difficult to keep spectators off the course, no money, (Great Depression), no crash helmets, an occasional pyrene fire extinguisher, many wrecks, concussions and broken bones. Many of the cars were jetted for methanol and the racers were fueled by ethanol.
I just want to say your projects are amazing and super cool to watch, keep up the great work you do. Thank you sir.
I went and poured myself a glass of wine, settled in to watch Shed Racing and you were gone!! You old scoundrel, still courting controversy. Don't ever change Ivan! Merry Christmas to all of the gang.
Merry Christmas Ivan, Susie & John. We look forward to having you visit us in New Zealand soon. 😊
Have a happy Christmas and a Merry New Year, Ivan, John and Suzy! I look forward to your adventures in 2025.
It wasn't all that long ago I remember the outcry of the censorship boards and were dismantled, or rethought their restrictions and everything was on show. Now it's all back. Thanks for everything put on your channel, It's way better than TV.
Merry Christmas to all at Shed racing and looking forward to seeing more in 2025
Seeing more what?
That's what caused the trouble in the first place.
1.38 Love the three mallards in flight on the wall. When I was a kid in the sixties we all had these. Oh, and a portrait of a green lady. LOL
Watching in Atlanta at 4pm on Dec 28th. Another year of great videos - thanks so much Ivan and Susie!
I grew up in Harrow Weald and used to cycle in the late 50's to Checkered Flag at both Edgware and Chiswick, also Performance Cars on the Great West Road - just to see those amazing sports cars: C- and D- Types, DB3S Astons. Later I worked at Greenford for NCR. Remember that building, Ivan? TonyB, Atlanta, GA
I was also one of the fortunate 300 this morning. I find it odd that pictures I enjoyed as a pubescent teenager in NatGeo are now banned online. lol. I think I'd be grinning too if I were Jerry. ! Thanks again All the best. Cheers
What a Legend John is ! Great work guys Merry Christmas from Australia. Cheers
Seeing the uncensored Shed Racing video puts me in an elite group....Happy Xmas all
Alastair Sim on Christmas Eve, Ivan Dutton on Christmas Day, what a great world we live in! Lovely Christmas episode, great progress on the Midget and congratulations for your upcoming racing license renewal. Wishing you all great sucesses in the New Year filled with Health, Happiness and Prosperity. Cheers, Paul.🤓
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to all at Shed Racing keep up the good work 👍
Best Wishes to you all in the shed. I'm looking forward to your adventures in the New Year.
Ivan and Susie , Thanks for the good wishes and a really interesting year…
Ivan, with all those plans for these future projects, seems like there's no stopping you. Just gives me so much hope for my "old age", (I'm 75 next year), I'm going to start saying, " when I'm old" I'll do so, and so. Great stuff, thanks for such a wonderful Shed Racing, Suzie, Ivan and John, (wizard craftsman).
Haha! I saw the original!
My goodness there are some thin skinned people out there. Okay that it was a bit Benny Hill, but I remember laughing at that back in the day!
I also am somewhat out of our time, but we live and learn. Too many Puritans nowadays!
When I saw version 2 it did not strike me that version 1 would get a ban.
Best wishes from George
I can remember the demise of Big Bertha. Streaming wet day at Silverstone, so wet a Mini was on pole. Only 2 cars in the race at the front, Gerry and Frank Gardner in the Camaro. Frank would lead on the straight, and Gerry would lunge up the inside under braking for Woodcote and throw the Ventora broadside all round the corner. Come the fateful lap when the brake pads departed, the same manoeuvre resulted in Bertha turning left and being wrecked in the scenery. Very pleased to see the big man walk away. Frank, not knowing the cause quipped "I reckon Gerry jumped all 18 stone on the brake pedal at once!" Big shame as Frank against Gerry was one heck of a contest.
Ivan, you area star. I'm not sure if you realise how inspirational you are. Keep on keeping on. Many thanks to Suzie for all her hard work producing the videos. Many thanks to John for all his hard work and for demonstrating all of his skills, or at least some of them.
Brilliant Ivan, have a fabulous 2025.
Ivan, i bought one of those blasters and couldn't get working. Could you do a set up video some please.. Great video as usual Suzzie with help of Ivan.🤣🤣
Merry Xmas from Christchurch NZ to the whole team, thank you so much for my shirt which arrived in time for me to wear on Xmas day. The shirt is great and got lots of comments. I think you will enjoy your trip to NZ. Keep up the great videos too.
Merry Christmas Ivan ,Susie and John .You will be surprised what the Kiwis get up to and for a Small Country has a Rich Motorsport History
🤣Suzie was right, you did get cancelled. I bet Julian will have a laugh. Merry Christmas
Good Afternoon and thank You Ivan Suzie and John, for the many hours of skillful engineering entertainment. I along with many others, look forward to 2025 . Kind regards from WLG - NZL
merry Christmas Ivan Suzy John and all the followers too , Ivan your going to love new Zealand i spent a couple of months there on north island some 11 years ago hope to one day go back and visit south island and visit another great petrol heads museum in the south mr Burt Monroe
Hi Suzi & Ivan this time of year is the best to come to NZ . Heaps of Motor Sport, make sure you bring a good hat for the old fella 😂 .A pity you didn't come this year as it's the last year for Western Springs Speedway after 100 odd years ( sad really) .Hope to see you next year .
As Always great viewing and with so much knowledge being shared with the viewers. I have been ,messing about modifying and building old cars which then evolved to old racing since i was 14 ( 43 Years ago ) but Ivan and his crowd are on another level. Seems nothing is beyond there skills. Its also sad to imagine what car related youtube videos will be out there in 70 years time? Will there be people modifying Tesla's or any of the latest offerings from any car manufacture? I doubt it .We are still living in a golden era where many people still purchase and own older cars because its a passion and something just for fun that can also be worked on in a garage at home .
Ivan on the subject of your 2025 travel abroad we had contact a few years ago. I suggested you bring your Lotus 7 to the Ollon -Villars hill Climb that is near me in Switzerland . Its a great event that I have taken part i since 2010. Last year I entered the Vernasca Silver Flag hill climb in Italy. Also an amazing event with cars that would normally only be seen in a museum being driven flat out on the limit for spectators to enjoy. These are " Fun " events so not officially a championship competition. You have so many lovely old cars that I am sure would be welcomed to these events . It would also be a very enjoyable weekend and make great content for you channel.
Merry Christmas to Susie, John, and Ivan!!! 😀
Merry Christmas Susie Ivan John
Ps I've still got mine and my father's petrol coupons.☺
Best wishes from Washington state to Ivan, Susie and John, merry Christmas, and happy new year. Y’all are the best👏
WHEN YOU GET BACK FROM NEW ZEALAND GET A NEW SHOP CAT. ANY COLOR.
Thank you so much team, from your fans over here in the colonies, Nova Scotia. Brent Minshull
Merry Christmas to Susie, John, and Ivan happy new-year to you all,,
All the best team shed racing, thank you for all your hard work in 2024 and looking forward to more adventures in 2025 👍
Missed v1 🤬. Never mind still one of my absolutely favourite channels. Thanks for all the entertainment and knowledge freely given. Some merch to buy in the new year then. Have a great and prosperous 2025, all of you.
Merry Christmas Ivan,Susie, John, Tim, Jane and everyone else.
Fabulous channel, met Ivan and Suzie at Prescott a few months ago, just absolutely great people.
I bought a tee shirt and now back at work in the BVI and wear it with pride 🌴
Merry Christmas to all, keep up the great projects and passion
You are a national treasure! I so look forward to your videos every week! You and Suzy (Sp?) keep up the good work!
Wishing Ivan,John,and Suzie all the very best for 2025,
It's a good day when Shed Racing puts out a new video.😁😁😁😁
Merry Christmas and thanks for all the videos you have made. May 2025 be another great year for Shed Racing
Merry Christmas, Happy Boxing Day to all! Great work on the frame will be looking into the primer.
(The poster was fantastic, all that was sent btw)
I was one of the "lucky three hundred" This morning. Love all the projects, and so many more to come!! One of the best channels on RUclips, and if you do T shirts again next year, I will definitely have one. Merry Christmas Ivan, Susie and John.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all, cheers from Australia 🇦🇺 👍 😀
Very interesting video for projects of the future. Merry Christmas to all of you. I wish I could come visit you. It is a very long distance. Susie -- your videos and questions are outstanding. You have raised the quality of the videos so much.
Merry Christmas Suzie, Ivan and John. You've made 2024 a much better year being able to follow
all your hard work and dedication. Passion, perseverance and persistence are the keys to success and you all show these attributes in spades. What a great team to keep us all on the crest of the wave for 2025 and beyond. Hopefully you may consider visiting Australia when you are on your NZ trip. p.s. Suzie, I'll be sending that merchandise order to you in the New Year.
Thanks once again for your inspiration,
Stephen
Brilliant video , love listening to the anecdotes that your long history keeps bringing up, tremendous 👍
Merry Christmas from old New Orleans 😇
You would love New Zealand, there's a very cool car culture here, although I can't talk about the really old stuff as havn't had a lot to do with them, and the weather would be a great improvement on the UK. Hope we see the pair of you one of these days.
Happy Christmas, Ivan, John and Suzie and thanks for all the superb videos in 2024. Here's to 2025
Ivan and Sussie.....Seasons greetings and very best wishes for new year....videos are best on u tube and u are an inspiration and make me laugh so much! Also delighted u like Bondaprimer... best stuff available
Merry Christmas Ivan, Suzie, John and Tim. Let's hope you have a great time with Suzie in New Zealand!
Ivan your a national treasure, and should be treated as such.
Top shelf as always. Great appreciation for having us.
Peace, purpose, and pleasure to you & yours.
All the best 🎉🎉 Merry Christmas happy new year
That English wheel machine looks like the Ranalah that Dominic Chinea, who you met at Beaulieu if I remember right, is making now.
Perfectly adequate.
Should be on a T shirt!.
I had to laugh when I saw there was a "version 2" as I knew exactly what happened! I saw the original version and I'm not complaining! Merry Christmas to Ivan, Susie, and John. Thanks for all the entertaining videos this year. I'm looking forward to many more.
Happy Christmas, thanks for all the great videos. Looking forward to watching your exploits in 2025.
Another option to make a counterbalanced crankshaft is to weld weights to the existing steel crank. Used to be common with high performance air cooled VW stuff, as the stock crank is not counterbalanced and the engine will rapidly pound out the center main and it's seat in the case when spun faster than 5000 or so. That said I suspect you're right that today's steel castings can probably give something plenty good enough.
Thank you Shed Racing, Suzy, John and Ivan for a wonderful year of videos.
Merry Christmas and a very healthy New Year.
Cheers 🥂
A must do for you in New Zealand is to visit Southwards Motor Museum , with is just north of Wellington
Bloody brilliant👌
All the Best to You and Your families in The New Year. The three of you make such a good team. I am looking forward to seeing all your projects in the coming year. Cheers!
Wishing you ALL a very happy Christmas and a great 2025 live forever Ivan John and Susie
Thanks Ivan and Susan, merry cristmas!!
I'm a great believer in Bonda Primer too. I get mine from the local Brewers Paint centre. I guess any of their shops can supply.
Well done Ivan,Suzie & John,keep up the good work in 2025! .Perhaps you will get to Stoney Classic again next Wed?
Happy Christmas and new year to and Suzy, Ivan. Loving all the content and of course loving new “ Shed Racing” T shirt. Best wishes🌲❤️👍🏻
Merry Christmas Suzie, Merry Christmas Ivan, Merry Christmas John.
I think Dutton Grey would be a good t shirt colour, maybe other merchandise too! Seasons greetings from Melbourne Aus./
Merry Christmas and a very happy new year to the Shed Racing team, looking forward to another year of great videos and more of Ivan’s very interesting stories, Cheers 👍
All the best from the mainland part of New Zealand and have a great new year

Merry Christmas to all, you are a legend, bless you all 🎉🎉
Haere Mai, Nau Mai. Welcome to Aotearoa/New Zealand Ivan and crew. Justsaying
Susie. Aren't you just living the dream??😀😀
absolutely - I love being Ivan's 'responsible adult'
Ivan (and Susie), love your videos, They are always interesting. So glad to hear you are coming over to New Zealand. Do hope you are visiting Christchurch (the classic car capital of NZ and foundation place of the Vintage Car Club of new Zealand} Auto Restorations here in Christchurch is a world renown company well worth a visit. Two speedways and a really good racing circuit too right on the edge of the city. All this and a variety of fantastic drivers roads all relatively unpopulated........
yes we've had an email exchange with George at Auto Restorations - aware he will be over in Paris for Retromobile early Feb
Seeing the opening scene with ivan in the chair and a cosy fireplace... i thought he would pick up a book and start reading a Christmas story 🤣🤣....
About a orphan mechanic who is sad on lonely on Christmas Day.... and is forced by his evil boss to work on Christmas eve in a cold and miserable garage...😢
🤣🤣....
Nice camera work Susie.
New Zealand, great I'm in whangarei, there's a great Packard museum close by , Graham Craw ( spelling ?)had one of the largest collections of mechanical stuff in the world, everything from antique canons to V12 merlin engines, cars , tin plate toys ,railway, huge machines , I bought an Austin A90 Atlantic from him as he had Chrysler Airflow & Desoto Airflow cars .his interest was wildly eclectic.
His son now cares for a small selection compared.
Plus our local stationary engine & vintage car clubs are all 5 minutes from my house .
Hope to see you here .
When are you coming?
Marcus
Merry Christmas !!!!!
Merry Christmas and a Happy new Year to All of your fabulous crew stay safe and well. I never miss a vlog love it all. Eddy Smith 40 S of Vegas . i was known as EDDY 70 at Newton Abbot race track in the the late Sixties and early Seventies
Ivan funny you talk about Gerry Marshall and the funny things he used to do . My oldest brother who was a very well known race engineer in the UK & F1 . Told me a story about Gerry & Tom Wheatcroft flashing each other in the Castrel motor home to see who had got the bigger balls . With Wheatcroft declaring him self the winner as he had taken more risks in life 😂
Happy Christmas to you all.
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you all. Looking healthier, chirpier and more lucid than I've ever seen you Ivan. Being sick must have done you some good.
Hope your xmas was great, and wishing you all a happy new year from Queensland.
Merry Christmas to one of my favorite RUclipsr shows. Cheers from across the pond in Texas.
Yet again brilliant, thanks team, Happy New year:)
hi to all happy Christmas thank you for 2024 on youtube and all the best for 2025 see you soon for more fun in the shed and out and about cheers
Ivan, I would suggest going to East Coast Castings Ltd and have them cast the new crank in steel. They often do parts for Bugatti and Aston Martin engines so they have experience with automotive castings.
I saw the first video cheers ivan
