You’ve proved a REME instructor wrong lads!!! The course that I was on (one or two years ago) the instructor the made a statement that no one could get a chieftain running after been filled with concrete. Well done Mr Hewes 👏👏👏👏🥇🥇🥇
@@eraldorhThe Russians were noted for just parking working tanks as gate guards. Friendly young souls would come in the middle of the night and drive them off to play with. The Britts decided that it might be better if gate guards stayed in place. One way to do this was to make them hard to drive.
When I saw 40 mins, I had to make sure I had a fresh brew, a comfy seat and no interruptions. Thank you for a wonderfully long and detailed video, I really enjoyed both it and the journey, long live Concrete Chieftain!
Glad to see Ted's true status has been acknowledged at last and a good job by you all. Your abilities continue to impress. Looking forward to the next one.
That was the best 40 mins I've had on a Sunday morning for years. Having seen her from the state she was in, to the things she did this morning - unbelievable. I originally thought you guys were "mucking around" with toys. No longer, You are true engineers to have achieved what you have. Hats off to the crew who can! Bloody well done for the result you have arrived at so far. How much further can you take her? Time will tell. Thank you lads.
Talk about gripping viewing. I was nervous. Tea and bacon butty went cold ages ago. Then the bobble hat and high vis jacket appeared and that helped calmed my nerves. Good things happen when those appear. With a defiant bellow she moved. I cheered. Forget breakfast. I’m watching this again. Chuffing awesome. Top team. Top effort. Ted stays chilled.
Guys, that was impressive. To think that a rusting hulk, filled with Concrete is now back running again. It's hard to imagine that that was once in front line service, probably with the BAOR. Once it's complete, all we need is Teds Paw of approval on it's commissioning papers and it's ready to go 👍👍🐾🐾
Gotta say seeing the transformation and improvement of your garage/workshop and tool storage from your vids a year ago to now is oddly satisfying, glad to see you and the crew doing well. Also the Chieftain has got to be one of the most Tank looking tanks to ever tank, you ask a child to draw a tank and it'll either look like a M4 or a Chieftain.
Proper tank fixing of the highest order. Concrete out, engine and gearbox in. I know you ‘mess around,’ but that is impressive mechanics. Ted for president.
jesus! so many flashbacks - Ted was in the position of the Vehicle Mechanic Sgt overseeing everything - all that was missing was 'special coffee' (baileys) and egg banjos :)
To all those still not understanding why the army fills them with concrete when they become gate guardians, obviously it’s to stop them blowing away in the wind🤷♂️
Sir, I actually applauded in front of my screen when the tank moved forward, and then again when it went backwards. Well done, all of you, thoroughly enjoyed watching that.
You Gents are a truly "The Saviors of Armor". Here in the States we used to take Old WWII Armor or anything obsolete, dismantle armament, Engines, and yes fill with concrete and plop them in front of Armories or VFW Posts like a Statue. Congratulations on a job well done! Keep em Running!!
Over the moon to see the old girl running again, knew that old chieftain, she used to sit next to a SAM guided missile, on the (what we called the rocket gate) at Arborfield Garrison, I knew her for 14 years of service guarding the old camp. It was a REME Garrison, now a massive housing estate. The other camp across the road Rowcroft had two AVRE Centurions which were also concrete filled. Thanks for the memories, climbed over her a few times, also have some photo's of my old military working dog in front of it. Only realised where it was when you put up the photo's and I recognised B company block straight away. Put a big smile on my face, grew up with them in the 70's as my old man was 1st Royal Tank Regiment.
Grew up in Winnersh a few miles from Arborfield remember they had supurb firework night parties. But always avoided St Crispins School in Wokingham were all the Army kids went!!!!!
I'm not particularly interested in tanks or mehanical engineering but I do have utmost respect for anyone with such passion and knowledge and that is why I watch.
As a 37 year veteran (disabled now) and preparing to retire from military civil service. I watched this and was so enthralled. Your team deserves HUGE kudos. From your allies across the pond, Brilliant!!!!
An old dead tank filled with concrete is the definition of never moving - and you take it for a drive! You have redefined the word impossible... very impressive, congrats!
Great to see a bit more of Ted taking a hands on role with his project management skills. Great work by Joe and the lads getting the Chieftain running and moving.
I love watching these, I work with smaller 4 wheeled stuff for a living. I must admit that I'm very envious and in awe of these righteous things, whether it's the projects or those venerable Fodens. A great collection of mates doing great things. Thankyou for sharing your experiences, especially ones that properly test patience and nerves like this old girl has, top work yet again gents👌
My first video of yours i saw you starting on the concrete filled tank. I thought you were wasting your time. You proved me wrong, for ever doubting you! Back in 1981i lived in Ohio. It took me three trips to NAPA, for them to get me the correct water pump for a 1968 Chevy Nova straight six.
“It’s not the cataclysmic failure, it’s the monumental recovery” Well done lads… Been a pleasure watching all the builds and the fun that goes with it… Keep em coming… 😂
Sergeant Thomas Highway USMC taught me the motto “Improvise, adapt, overcome”. That’s what you guys do breathing life back into some pretty sorry states, managed of course by irreplaceable Ted. He doesn’t say much, but you can see decades of knowledge and experience in his eyes. Love the videos - they take me back to my youth, “maintaining” and driving Her Majesty’s big green and black vehicles in BAOR. Great stuff!! 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
I know the two things are massively far apart in scale (and mud), but the reason I fix up and bring 70s and 80s computers back to life is for the same reason - the sense of achievement. While my stuff isn't usually filled with concrete, it may have been cannibalised for parts, have bits broken off or just be plain trashed. I'm constantly learning as I go, and sometimes don't have the right tools, but when that thing comes alive again, oh yes. Nice to see it scaled up :D
An absolute triumph 🤩. That was without doubt the greatest achievement for the team - well done Ted. All done whilst still having a great laugh - awesome 🫡
Well I bet the MOD didn’t expect a group of daft sods to stick another engine in it and get her running again🤣. Well done guys, that’s rather impressive 👌👍
Superb to watch. The lesson obviously is that if you want anything in the British army to work, fill it with concrete for 25 years. I’m stunned how much functions! Ha!
The expression on your face at the end of that video Joe says it all, I know how great it feels to bring a machine back to life that has been on deaths door.... addictive isnt it ! keep the videos going mate, we love em!
you guys remind me of our tank mechanics when I first came into the military over 25 years ago. They were just like you....fiddling and fixing things as they went along.
So, are you going to paint a Blue Circle on it, or a Rugby Ball? My guess would be a Rugby Ball in your part of the country. Seriously well-done Lads, for a small bunch of Farm Lads, with next to no equipment, and no, or next to no, training or experience to call on, you really do achieve miracles. As the saying goes, "The impossible can be done almost at once, Miracles take a little longer".
Kids are fed, so it's time to watch Joe pull off another miracle. It's become so every day of a feat that it often feels like it's nothing that special. However, that would be a disservice to Joe and Adam's skills. 😊❤❤❤😊
Yes, I do agree my friend, nothing is impossible, I have been in some bleak situations, looked utterly lost, came back in a few days, after having given much thought, and it all came together, and once again, resurrected a totally hopeless situation, we never know what we are capable of until called upon to do, what seems to most, to be impossible
When based in Fallingbostel in the late 1970s, on one Active Edge (Cold War call out) 17 out of 20 Chieftains conked out with one mile of the barracks gate. It a great pity REME did not have the skills of Mr Hewes and his Team - they are true professionals and second to none.
I love watching restoration of combat vehicles. Superb work guys!! Keep the videos coming as well as we all learn something by watching. Thank you again❤❤❤
Guys I take my hat off to you. You have achieved the near impossible. Most people would have given up ages ago . From Concrete Bob’s Tank to a running example. Great to see the super experienced engineer Ted overseeing the operation. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Home run, Goal, Touchdown, Ace, no matter what you call it.....everyone's efforts made it happen.......FANTASTIC friggin job !!!!!!!!!! You've made a silk purse out of a sows ear. IMPRESSIVE doesn't adequately describe this accomplishment....
joe when fitting the air cleaner make up a couple of short strops for it, we always used two of our belts done up at each end, allows both two stand comfortably when dropping it in against the Blower.
Quite the sense of satisfaction to fill a tank with engine and gearbox versus concrete! Well done, mate! You make me realize how much easier it is to put an engine in my truck which ISN'T filled with concrete!
Just surfing on YT tonight.. and saw the word TANK..! I was an M60A1 tanker in the US Army back in '81. I was a gunner\loader\driver. It's great to see you bring this one back to life. WOW.. 30 year nap. Good job to all who worked on this.
Great job, living the dream. Just remember to savour these times. Years pass by so fast, and before you know it you get woken by the need for another pee. Or by the pain in your body !!. 👍
This Guy is impressive .I bet he puts the Reme workshops to shame . I bet he would make a good living teaching the REME staff how to fix . Much Respect
Your content and presentation is exellent and I find it just as entertaining as many other channels that receive alot more attention. I have done what I can and clicked all the buttons. Keep at it, I hope your channel keeps growing.
Just goes to show Joe and team, never under estimate your abillities. This is a perfect example of how good you and your teams skill set is in being able to give life to something that many thought would never happen again. So well done lads. 😊👍
To see the of chiefy run again brings a tear to me old eyes. And to hear the engine fire up brings back so many memories that gladding's my heart. Well done i say!!!
![Felix "Unfair" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Oswujxm2Ag0/mqdefault.jpg)
When people ask me why I do what I do. It’s for moments like these.
The sense of achievement is far greater than any amount of money.
Also, congratulations on eating ‘Skips’ the correct way Mr Hewes. I did notice 😁👍
… although you opened the bag upside down 🤨
We all felt it, too! Chuffing amazing. We watch because it matters to you. Bloody love your channel 👍
Sorry to disagree. With you guys it’s not achievement it’s ACHIEVEMENT. And, what’s more you share it with us lesser mortals.
Carry on pal,it’s really appreciated 😁
Know what you mean. The satisfaction of a achievement like this is priceless 👍
You’ve proved a REME instructor wrong lads!!! The course that I was on (one or two years ago) the instructor the made a statement that no one could get a chieftain running after been filled with concrete.
Well done Mr Hewes 👏👏👏👏🥇🥇🥇
Why was it filled with concrete?
@andrewwww7684 it was a gate guard.
@@th3l33t1Still doesnt make sense to fill it with concrete.
@@eraldorhThe Russians were noted for just parking working tanks as gate guards. Friendly young souls would come in the middle of the night and drive them off to play with. The Britts decided that it might be better if gate guards stayed in place. One way to do this was to make them hard to drive.
What he meant to say was "Nobody would be insane enough to try and get it running after if had been filled with concrete"
Perfect Sunday... been for a walk, get back, first brew of the day and there's a new Mr Hewes. And Ted.
Have a good Sunday
if only we could hear Ted Talk 😂
Any chance of getting the vehicle reg please
Who is this Mr Hewes bloke? Hello, Ted.
Indeed a perfect Sunday and what a fantastic job Ted has done to motivate his crew ........
When I saw 40 mins, I had to make sure I had a fresh brew, a comfy seat and no interruptions. Thank you for a wonderfully long and detailed video, I really enjoyed both it and the journey, long live Concrete Chieftain!
You blokes are pretty good for bodging things up & making it work, probably the best I've ever seen.
#FarmLife 💪💪
What do you mean bodging? He took a tank filled with concrete ,cleared it, made it live again .
@@kiwi1205 Generally speaking, you gronk.
You seriously need some magnetic parts trays. Losing a gear shift pin would be disastrous.
You and the guys should be justifiably proud of what you have accomplished. Major work and excellent to see it running and driving again. Well done.
We are all buzzing
Corporal Jones! You were told to fill that tank with concrete. Do I have to do everything myself?
Glad to see Ted's true status has been acknowledged at last and a good job by you all. Your abilities continue to impress. Looking forward to the next one.

Glad to see Jack's mum is doing well!
Talk about gripping viewing. I was nervous. Tea and bacon butty went cold ages ago. Then the bobble hat and high vis jacket appeared and that helped calmed my nerves. Good things happen when those appear. With a defiant bellow she moved. I cheered. Forget breakfast. I’m watching this again. Chuffing awesome. Top team. Top effort. Ted stays chilled.
Now Ted has been given his correct job title, he needs his own High vis jacket with the company Logo, great video.
And a clipboard.
Guys, that was impressive. To think that a rusting hulk, filled with Concrete is now back running again. It's hard to imagine that that was once in front line service, probably with the BAOR. Once it's complete, all we need is Teds Paw of approval on it's commissioning papers and it's ready to go 👍👍🐾🐾

Shoot it’s 23:42 on 30 May 2024, 30 minutes east of BATUS, and you had to bring up egg banjos!!. Got to go have a couple now💂♂️🪖⛑️🏴🇨🇦
Feeling much better at 00:19 31 May 2024, same location, life enriched with two egg banjos and a coffee, ready for bed.💂♂️🪖⛑️🏴🇨🇦
I didn't know I liked tanks until just now. Minis, Landcruisers then tanks... the natural progression of mechanical obsession.
As an old friend of mine always said, "There is nothing like a good win." Nice job!!!
😊3😊😊
To all those still not understanding why the army fills them with concrete when they become gate guardians, obviously it’s to stop them blowing away in the wind🤷♂️
back in the war, all the warehouses got destroyed,
and so they had to store all their concrete in tanks.
Sir, I actually applauded in front of my screen when the tank moved forward, and then again when it went backwards. Well done, all of you, thoroughly enjoyed watching that.

I like the distinct lack of whooping and shouting that you see on some other channels, just people with tools methodically fixing machinery. 👌🏻
And no stupid hats on backwards, or bandannas, big beards and bald heads!
Awesome great work and your mascot did the truck😎😎👍🏻🦅🇺🇸🇬🇧
Not many youtube channels make me happy to see a 40 minute video . Great stuff keep up the good work chaps 👍
An old dead tank filled with concrete is the definition of never moving - and you take it for a drive! You have redefined the word impossible... very impressive, congrats!
Great to see a bit more of Ted taking a hands on role with his project management skills. Great work by Joe and the lads getting the Chieftain running and moving.
Sat on the top eating those skips, the first thing that came into my mind was ”Oddball”. Top effort lads
Mr Hewes and team, making England great again ❤ excellent job guys

Cool video as always , that's one lucky tank . Most people wouldn't have bothered , but you lot brought it back to life . Nice one .
Looks like a Chieftain Mark X. That turret's added armor is giving me that vibe.

Outstanding... just seeing how chuffed you and the lads are getting her started and moving just shows how passionate you are 👍🏻😁
That was one of your best yet. When that concrete was poured I bet no one thought it would ever move let alone run again
An absolute triumph 🤩. That was without doubt the greatest achievement for the team - well done Ted. All done whilst still having a great laugh - awesome 🫡
Best video yet...awesome effort bringing it back to life. Supervisor Ted deserves a raise, or an extra chewy for his work.
Well I bet the MOD didn’t expect a group of daft sods to stick another engine in it and get her running again🤣. Well done guys, that’s rather impressive 👌👍
Hello mate. 🙂
@@FarmerP 😆 evening mate! What are you doing on a cool and trendy channel 🤪
It’s a huge surprise the MOD hadn’t used a thermic lance to remove original engine. They usually go totally OTT when anything is decommissioned.
Superb to watch. The lesson obviously is that if you want anything in the British army to work, fill it with concrete for 25 years. I’m stunned how much functions! Ha!
Absolutely stonking effort you chaps. Jolly good show!
The expression on your face at the end of that video Joe says it all, I know how great it feels to bring a machine back to life that has been on deaths door.... addictive isnt it ! keep the videos going mate, we love em!
Produce a calendar. Twelve iconic pics of just the tanks and Ted in a foreman's high vis vest and hard hat. It would sell like hotcakes.
Ted reminds me of the Dog I grew up with. Same coloring, same wanting to be where ever I was. He crossed over at 16 years. Was a great dog.
Is there any way your work area could be filthier?
Teds knowledge of tanks and Chieftains in particular is second to none , the talk in the tea room he is on retainer for the Tank museum
Whilst concrete in your tank is no good.......some aroud your workshops and adjacent driveways might be a good thing....irony lol 😂
😂😂😂
You certainly proved with this challenge, what is possible and yes, achievement over money any day. Great job guys.
I hope Jacks mum doesn’t watch😂
Your videos make me feel like im there. I really enjoy that
Perseverance and you guy's personal 'grit' saved the 'Concrete Chieftain'.
Good job of it!!!
👍🇺🇸🇬🇧😎
Being serious for a moment! Unbelievable that you got that running and driving. Congratulations
Brilliant job lads,made my week seeing the old girl brought back to life.Your sense of achievement is justified to the max.
Fantastic achievement well done all! Things like this cement friendships hehe.
Great to see people getting grubby and muddy and enjoying themselves doing work outside. It is a great achievement well done to you all !!
you guys remind me of our tank mechanics when I first came into the military over 25 years ago. They were just like you....fiddling and fixing things as they went along.
Bloody well done. What a result. For someone who's self taught your ingenuity and abilities are amazing. You pride in the end result are well visible.
So, are you going to paint a Blue Circle on it, or a Rugby Ball? My guess would be a Rugby Ball in your part of the country.

Great Job. Good thing Ted was there to supervise .
Excellent excellent job boys! Who would’ve ever given a cent, that thing ever would’ve run and move again, awesome absolutely awesome😊
Wow, it started right up - that thing is built like a tank!
Well done lads. Another one rescued and given a new life. A great achievement.
Home run, Goal, Touchdown, Ace, no matter what you call it.....everyone's efforts made it happen.......FANTASTIC friggin job !!!!!!!!!! You've made a silk purse out of a sows ear. IMPRESSIVE doesn't adequately describe this accomplishment....

Just surfing on YT tonight.. and saw the word TANK..! I was an M60A1 tanker in the US Army back in '81. I was a gunner\loader\driver. It's great to see you bring this one back to life. WOW.. 30 year nap. Good job to all who worked on this.
Love how your being extra cautious and conferring with your supervisor Ted constantly.
Great job, living the dream. Just remember to savour these times. Years pass by so fast, and before you know it you get woken by the need for another pee. Or by the pain in your body !!. 👍
Superb job lads, you should be really proud of yourselves.
I bet the people that filled it with concrete thought it would never run again WRONG!
This Guy is impressive .I bet he puts the Reme workshops to shame . I bet he would make a good living teaching the REME staff how to fix . Much Respect
Amazing job I bet that's the first time that's ever been achieved. Pretty unbelievable what you've managed to do
Love seeing these old tanks getting restored to working order. Job well done again lads, love the videos 😊
So happy you guys save history like this. Well done boys
Your content and presentation is exellent and I find it just as entertaining as many other channels that receive alot more attention. I have done what I can and clicked all the buttons. Keep at it, I hope your channel keeps growing.
Thank you kindly
Excellent Ted, leading from the front as always 👏🏼
IT'S ALIVE! I took 2 goes at watching this - didnt know you got it going till near the end.. Fabulous work.
Just goes to show Joe and team, never under estimate your abillities. This is a perfect example of how good you and your teams skill set is in being able to give life to something that many thought would never happen again. So well done lads. 😊👍
Great shades of the fitter section - eating snacks with - very - oily hands! That's the way to do it!!!
Great stuff. Lining up the engine and gearbox on newly fabricated mounts was really something. Well done.
To see the of chiefy run again brings a tear to me old eyes. And to hear the engine fire up brings back so many memories that gladding's my heart. Well done i say!!!
Absolutely amazing to see guys doing this as a hobby. 😊
It’s Alive, It’s Alive!!! Proof, “nothing is impossible”.
I love watching you guys working on the tanks, bringing them back to life again, ye are all great Cràic
To see this and what you've all achieved in getting it actually driving from how you got it is awesome! Well done everyone!
I take my hat off to you blokes, brilliant and bloody well done!
What a great save , we'll done chaps , so happy to see this old girl up & running after all the effort the Ted team has put in , smashing🎉😂🎉😂🎉😂🎉
