Nothing will top the CF smoke out 🤣🤣
Instant fog out😂 hilarious scene with Al choking his guts out the window 😂😂
I guess even crappy modern fuel won't block the jets in that carb - they've probably got a 3mm bore! Another great episode guys!
Good job guy`s, now for the alternator🤣
Nice motor one of my poster cars on my wall when I was a kid I would be using that every day when fudgie was blowing the pipe with the stale fuel the smell was definitely stale fuel and not one of fudgie farts 💩
Another great Sunday video has al and fudgie so funny best laugh ever👍
I'm in love ❤️ 😍 with the Corvette and the Orange 🍊 😍
Me too, I was like a kid at a sweet shop when she came in 😊 looks even better in the flesh 👍
@@stevelodge6506 Wow 👌, in the flesh 😍 😳 👏, Ha ha ha 😂
'Blood Stick', Derek would be proud of you both!
Only you could think it was "far too easy" AFTER setting fire to it, absolutely superb comment from a great double act!
As if it was in any doubt of starting under the guidance of you and Fudgey. I like how you tried to make the alternator “Flame Red” with some help using a drop of fire. Swiftly extinguished and she runs. Hopefully you be able to sort the stopping in part 2.
Great video lads,what a nice car hope there is more recordage on this one
10 years!! Wat school did u go to!!!!???or were u like me rather be getting on the spanners than sat behind a desk!!!!hope U an fudgester aint yank converts???!!! Gunna cost you to keep them thirsty v8,s going but who doesn't love the v8 burnkeGood vid as always nice one boys good luck with your projects 😊
Nice corvette Al, back in the early 90s are next door neighbors owned a white corvette and also they owned a copy of the A Team van. I have photos of them somewhere. The engine sounds very healthy. Good video lads.
Beautiful!
Top quality will it startidge for a Sunday great work as always look forward to the next one 👍
Always loved the C3. I enjoyed that one. Not that I don’t enjoy the other videos 😉
Don't worry, Fudgey, I have a smaller one that's a bit rubbish, too
That's the highlight of the week end over bigger only 7 days to next installment cant wait,
Excellent stuff, well done gents.
My Sunday complete now. Have a great day all who see this 👍👊🏻
Great video thanks Pat
C3 , early ones stingray were the best looking cars , just love um , great vid 👍
Buddy crikey that was orange it ran sweet though apart from the obvious BBQ grill on the alternator awsome buddy
Great work boys ...that sounds sweet
Great video really enjoyed it fellas 👍
Nothing wrong with orange. Thanks for another great video.
Great video guys
I've often thought OLe Fudgey was a yes man, but at least he dosnt come out with many original thoughts, to steal your highly H/S improvised solutions...
Makes my Sundays the 5D saga's...Many thanks...
I'm really not though 😂 welding,fabrication and restoration work is where my skills kick in fella 😊
What a fabulous new project, I like it. Clearly authentic, as you could not have plotted the alternator fire better as a counterpoint to the success of the engine firing first go! Looking forward to part 2. Cheers & keep up the good work.
Top quality episode.
What an awesome noise. Another good 'un .
Ps Give Ed China a ring he likes things 🍊
Another excellent video guys 👍👍👍
Cheers fella 👍
Chuck glitter in the biege.....go all in.and have 1970 underwear patterns as seat covers lol
Good to see it all go to plan for once , except for the dodgey alternator, thanks for that fellas, enjoyed every minute of it. The frustraition of fitting the battery was comical to, why do the Americans put batteries indoors? I'd hate to contemplate how much those tyres cost per corner. Still its a beautiful machine and orange doesnt make it any less exciting.
Rockford files golden brown.
Love to see a road test of this fine outombile
There's one thing you can bet money on, is the reliability of a chevrolet small block engine.
*Fookin elll it’s the Dukes of 6D’s and Cooters Garage c’monnnn Y’all*
🥷🏿🇬🇧
Chukkle Brothers ride again from me to you to you to me no me to you Thing of beauty
My fist pickup truck here in the states had a chevy 350 brilliant and very reliable,but you need a part time job to
Pay for petrol 😅
A different area of the workshop...the "Yanky" end?
Looks, clean, organised, dry and well lit....am I on the wrong channel?
Ha ha don’t worry it’s the same shed!! Even the same spot as normal it just pissing it down so we shut the doors 😂😂😂
Only you guys can catch an alternator in fire 🔥
The future is bright the future is orange 🇬🇧👍🏻
Lots of hp there 😀
Buy the way as a heating engineer the environment people should get very excited buy the oil tanks, that maybe leaking hydrocarbons into the ground 😜
Great car 🤣🤣
You got a brake light out at the back and you'll find it needs bleeding and check for leaks on the breaking system obviously a new alternator and you have a huge cleaning job and a window mec to replace and you have the sexy beast of a car sir
That's beaut
Can we leave the russet brown Allegro out of it please😂 they get enough stick as it is😂😂
👍👍👍
Its got a wi-fi fuel pumpage unit...
Theyre not hazard lights...They are 4 ways...
BMC russet brown universally known as DSB.
Got be the mintest thing use have had in a while
Always loved the Matchbox version of the Corvette Caper Cart back in the 70's but when you see the big boy version, it's a bit of a letdown.
"13:33" one of those noises was car alarm 🚨 having said that, don't know whats up with the windscreen washer motor ?😮
Years ago, it may have been "Mongoose", these days I don't bother fitting alarms to my cars.
I update them quite often having several cars, vans and wagons ( 4x4's ) all at once.🤔👍
See ralphies corvette on sleeperdude go back seach first start
My Sunday complet eth
Spanners: ACROSS FLATS. not American Fine. Spanner. ;)
Yer getting very fond on them yankee petrol yokes. More diesel vids😅 haynes comic ,fag in hand over carb , very funny,
Wats with the yank stuff lately al and fudge im sure there is other vehicles with nice big engines in wats not American you could get running?? Still enjoyed watching it.But not no where near as funny when you taken a few years off your life with that smokey old Bedford cf still makes me laugh thinking of it 😂🤣 now mate
All depends on what we find fella, you never know what coming in the door in this place lol , I’m sure we’ll have some old smoked big diesel stuff soon 👍
@@6DDIESELSDorset I do understand that it's wat ever jobs come in you can't turn it down mate it's wat ever makes you money I enjoy watching wat ever you do can't wait for the dirty diesels stuff again can't wait to see fudges Capri to be finished as my family and me in the past had fords got one Capri V6 to get done but still not finished it yet having the time keep up the good work you two 🇬🇧👍
GM once tried turning one of their famed V8 engines into a diesel, apparently it was awful and very unreliable so they poopooed the idea of using diesel engines at all, cos they were bad at making them, instead of, y'know, employing anyone who knew how to build them... :P
That was the olds 350 you refer to. It was a bad idea. They also made a different 6.2/6.5 used in Chevy trucks,Hummers and military. Don't forget their old Detroit Diesel division who made diesels for a zillion years put in GMC's,semi's and busses.
Its ok but……….It’s not as pretty as your Capri
