And working ain’t no play.
But then I hearz me little bell
What sez me friends iz calling.
I druther watch them Cold War Boyz
Than spend me sweet time balling.

Editor’s note: Well, The Poet is naturally talking thru his little rat bastard ass again. The only balling he ever did victimized a perfectly good and well-ripened watermelon.
That Mini is off the hook. Awesome find.
I was wondering if you or Dean may be able to find a set of side window louvers for a 1978 dodge aspen?
Hey Scott you should check out a channel called Fasterproms they took a engine out of a Acura put it in a Smart car put a turbo on it the thing make over 500HP the thing is nuts
Hey coldwar motors there is a guy on craigslist in Houston selling some trim pieces for a 60 Plymouth..
These CWM Saturday installments really make my week special, the intertwined sagas of real motörheads, Scott’s brilliant metalwork and the enthusiasm for the lost era machines, absolutely wonderful!
This is absolutely the very best "rust to beauty" series on youtube.
by FAR!!
I see more authentic people on this series than I see anywhere.
@@wb6162 Canada IS Authentic!!
Yes! And the best part is that it’s motivated by fun, NOT by profit!
Nice Nissan. Hope Dean is going to be wearing a nice gas-station uniform when the ribbon is cut on the new building.
Oh, yeah. Bow tie.
Think Dean will be sellin greasy flips in the back alley beside the servo
@@dougcoxon5472 fair dinkum!
@@garykuhn1921 Yeah mate for sure.
The transformation of this car has been absolutely amazing. A true labor of love!
Scotts face when the boost spooled in second ..it was glorious🙂
Aye, that shook his tree nicely 😁
"I think its this size" Holds up vise grips... I can't stop laughing
How in *the hell* did they put that stone-shield thingy onto the car as it was moving through the factory on the assembly line? For that matter, how did they put *any* of those crazy trim pieces on while that thing was rolling along on the assembly line?!
And, *WOW* -- that Datsun 510 is *amazing!*
And that Mini?! *Definitely* need to see that again when it's on the road -- that's gonna be a *sweet* ride.
Glad to hear Tom is doing well -- thanks for the update.
the minis deep door pockets were allegedly designed to hold bottles of Gordon’s Gin upright as this was one of Sir Alec Issigonis favourite tipples.
It's a good combination Minis and Gin. In the 1960s the original James Bond drank gin martinis, and my parents did too.
I'd believe that, issigonis was great at designing cars for himself then being forced to tweak them for everyone else lol
Gin over Vodka anyday , Vodka has killed many a Russian
Tha door pocket holds a 12 pack and a bag of ice!
@@martentrudeau6948 And Gordon's is my favorite.
What an incredible Mini. Such a solid car for the age. That is a proper unicorn.
That Mini is definitely one of the oldest in the country. I've seen a '59 at a show. It had been restored to immaculate condition and was probably going to be spending most of its time on a trailer. I have a '61 Countryman, and I'm aware of two or three others of the same vintage in Ontario. Even if Al just gives it a "make it ready for the road" restoration, it'll be a gem!
I have been so grateful for the regularity of footage of the projects during the lockdown it’s helped to keep me sane well almost.
Thanks Scot 👌
That old Datsun is Wicked!
You're scaring Scott! He's used to driving his Frazer.
At around 7:1 compression I think the old fraiser is due for a turbocharger
What a find! That Mini is nearly perfect. Fury looking great!. Loving the gas station building, it needs neon lights as a finishing touch.
I’ve seen Christmas trees with less trim then half the fury . Smiles
Scott sounding like Dean gushing over the Mini
Just about, and with good reason, it's near mint!
Great episode....loved the 510 and would love to see the Mini build done on youtube.
Agent 673 is the encyclopedia of minis. He's got to put that car together 🏁👌
Great start to the day a new CWM episode. Where to start, the Fury is looking great, and gets better each update. The Mini, wow! What a find. Really hope we can see progress. A floor starter model very early and so complete. With content like this no wonder there are loads of programmes on my TV hard drive unwatched.
Another great week ! Now that the big pieces of trim are going on, the Plymouth is looking even more awesome. The extravagance of the era in design is noteworthy. I was actually holding my breath when you put on that rear quarter piece of trim. It looked very tedious. Thanks for the update on the building. Congrats to Al on his mini find. 👍
It still amazes me that these things were built on a moving assembly line! How they ever got all those fiddly bits to align is a miracle.
They probably loved everyone who ordered a cheap trim level
Never stop impressing me. The fury is just inching along nicely. I know zero about Mini's, so that was very educational, thank you. Building is gonna be awesome. Gotta get that done before snow flies again.
I see you have Iowa geese (formally know as Canadian geese). We're going to need those back to complete our 8.4 million piece set...
A Canadian corrected me once those are Canada geese. Who know.
That's a nice collection of rusticles under the Dodge pickup there, Scott...
I bet the guys in Detroit who had the job of putting that rear lower trim on those Furies in the factory needed a good few beers after finishing their shifts...
gosportjamie -Can you imagine? That part of the assembly line(exterior trim install) had to have like 10-15 guys! Wonder how many were inside the car for the washers/nuts alone.
Back then they were painted by human painters not wearing masks in the body shop. The trim might have been installed before it went back on the line. I would love to see a video of this car on the assembly line.
Do you think they scheduled the Furies like every third car on the line so they had more time to get the special trim on?
The Fury has come a long way!
No jokes today the Fury is becoming a true piece of Art .
I can hear the plant supervisor now. HURRY UP BOY , GET THAT TRIM ON, WE GOT TO SHIP THESE CARS TODAY!!!
Great work on the truck Scott! I almost thought for sure you might clean it first-that would be terrible without Dean for the detail work. Miss all your buddies, Tom n'all. Glad to see the pooch having so much fun!
Stay well all!
Rich
A nice set of whitewalls would look real nice on your Fury
Love the Datsun.So great to see a solid one,and it runs so strong too. Can't believe the 'field find' Austin.Can't find one in a barn that solid.Yet he found all but the rear axle.Just Wow.Good to hear everyone's doing well too.Keep safe guys.
That Mini... oh Lord! First car i ever drove was a 61 Countryman. Excellent work chaps 👍 stay safe and stay sane
Every time I look at that Fury I’m amazed. It’s looking good 👍🍻
Neat 510 wagon - my first car was a 510 wagon, hopped up, lowered, BRE front spoiler, and ET slot mags! :-) Good work on the Fury too. Wonder how long it took the guys on the assembly line to put that stainless on? When you do several hundred cars a day, you probably get pretty quick at it.........................
Great mini find ,back in the UK that's a 10grand car (British pounds)
Finally! It is Saturday now! That first piece of trim looks like a trophy or an award to compete for. This one was fun from start to finish. That Datsun is insane.
👍👍☮️
To see the trim going On the rocker you so painstakingly built is just awesome.From that pigsty to such beauty.You can 'polish a turd'.
That’s a nice little Datsun! I love the idea that when you put your foot down you can leave Mustangs behind! It being a estate only adds to the effect.
Good to see some Mini love in Canada. A Mini was my first car; they always feel fast! That’s a very clean body shell especially for its age! Minis rust for fun!
Good to hear Tom is keeping well.
Love it when you shut the hood an parts fall off, takes the guessing out of what needs fixed next
Amazing how excited we get over a new old car. Example the old Mini.
I was born in '60, that Mini is in better shape than I am.
The Fury (when finished) really deserves a guest appearance on "Jay Leno's Garage". A long one, filled with a dialogue of 2 honest car guys & decent humans beings, speaking about old cars, life & everything.
And yep, the channel deserves 144k subscribers, not 44k. Keep bringing them, videos, good man.
The "Titanic" reference was spot on.
What a fine piece of shaped stainless, with the screw fixings directly in line with spray from the wheels, I hope
the Fury only sees dry days on the road, after all your hard work of re-creating such an impressive car!
I have binge watched this entire series (and lots more of your videos). I want that Fury. I will settle for finally doing what I should have done a couple of weeks ago. 👍 and subscribed.
Man, this is a top episode. That Mini is so sweet, that sort of stuff just doesn't exist in the UK anymore, everything is either completely rotten or full of 40 years of patchwork welding... That's a proper once in a lifetime find these days! That Datsun looks like a beast as well, all the better for being a wagon.
Fury is starting to look dangerously complete...
I remember my grandads Austin 7. God I loved that car. I miss him so much.
While going over a list of parts for dad's 48 Chevy 3800 1 ton that we're freshening up after 32 yrs in the cow pasture I introduced him to Cold War Motors and now he's hooked. He's 69 yrs old and loves this stuff as much as I do.
I can not imagine how many design engineers it took, working without computers, to design the fabrication of just the trim pieces for cars back in the day when the Fury was new, not even considering the assembly time needed on the line.
You and that 510 wagon. I would almost trade my 40 ft motorhome for that 510. I am a Datsun nut and still looking for a 69 240 Fairlady.
Another hour's fun with CWM. I owned a 1960 Morris Mini Minor in 1968 - a rusting heap with no 1st gear, vanishing subframe and battery tray and leaky weatherproofing. It also stopped and refused to restart in moderate to heavy rain. All common Mini faults. Once assembled, Al's Mini will be in much better condition than mine was then. In the UK, the Austin Seven label was dropped in 1962 in favour of just Austin Mini.
Hi Scott! I have been watching your videos for well over a year now and can't wait for a new post every week. It is truly exciting and fascinating to see a true mechanic at work which I certainly think that you are. There is no doubt that you were taught and learned well. What I also truly enjoy is the commentary between you and your friends. The way that you all truly respect each others abilities and accomplishments is a pleasure to see real friendship. And Al's mini is a real gem awesome and the Datsun whoa so cool.
I LOVE the vinegar trick.....
"It's like the Titanic under here." I wish I didn't understand the reference so well! Would like to see the installation of the tiles: I'm seriously jealous of those.
Scared in the Datsun-too funny! That was worth the price of admission-the '60 is looking awesome-Cheers!
When my parents my sister and I would take us to vacation in Victoria, BC in the early 1960's these things were all over the place.
that little datsun is a beast.....the fury looks like its getting close...i hope it get center stage in your new building
I love the 1950 Dodge, I hope you'll look into it more, I'm excited to see it drive! Also, stunning job again on the Fury, I absolutely love all the content on this channel! Its turned into a routine for me to order pizza each Sunday, sit down and relax while watching another long episode from you, keep up the good work!
"What size is that"? "this size" haha lmao. I have often resorted to the universal wrench method on old crusty jewels like that dodge.
Nice to see the progress of the new structure as well as the Plymouth as always! Going crazy not seeing tire dressing and original hubcaps on it. Poor Dodge must have been put on the sidelines way back when because of transmission problems, but it was loved too much to get rid of. That Datsun wagon would sure be a great sleeper with stock wheels, hubcaps on it. Nobody would suspect a thing with it. The early Mini Al grabbed deserves as much attention as that gorgeous Citroen you are perfecting, especially being the factory red one it is.
@15:02 Lovin' that mid-centruy modern vaulted-ceiling/ roof/ front overhang thing you got goin' there.
That lower quarter trim piece is the largest salt repository in Canada. It looks great.
Sweeeet early Mini! I knew them from the time time when they were nearly brand new. I never seen any unrestored Mini from that period that was not a rusted out piece of junk!
I learned so many informative things about the early models within a few minutes. Your channel is extremely educational in so many ways: I am in shock to see that you still do not have masses of suscribers . Maybe this channel is quite simply to good for the average goofies!
Impressive Datsun as well!
Can't wait to see this Mini and the Fury fixed an running! Thank you so much for this great update!
There's more shiny in one quarter than there is in today's vehicles by a mile !🇨🇦
That reflective glass for the new garage extension is perfect. You kidding me? What better way to be constantly reminded of all the junkyard clutter. And that Austin. Omg, what a find. Only the English would design a car with rain gutters. Fantastic episode. Looking forward to more DS grossièreté.
That Mini has to go together ! Oh yeah !
It's springtime in Alberta!! Yeah!!!
I like what you did with the brake line on the truck. I did the same thing with a Willy's Jeep that I brought back from the dead. Amazing skill and patience on the Fury. You should have a Fury T-shirt because it is an awesome car. Go Canada👍👍👍
I love that your buds find stuff out in a field and bring it over for assessment. Great to have people who share your passions. (Frankers was also clearly enthused at the Mini.)
I think it was agent Dave that found the mini and it is right up there with let's go to sema, well "sema Canada" where it can set next to a nash bathtub or a Keizer .... a long nose gm "buick" and who doesn't love a waterfall pontiac!! A shining linseed oil finish. Just too sexy for her clothes. Again the Fury has raised her feathers and said; no one will take that away from her. I really like that Fury and the chance of quality run or as I hear you say "Let's go for a rip"! All get out of the fifty model and make the best for this cars interior and start getting into a small back seat on the Fury and then all into the mini and out of the start up mode all together... no doing more damage as your a quick learn on doing it right. A great video by anyone's viewpoint. Real classic entertainment. THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH. Those dreaded sap bugs ternametly. keep moving at doing bug shit for lunch!!! I am at a loss for a word description
Hi Scott,
Loving the content, the fury’s really getting there- patience is a must with the trim fittings, amazing how quick the modern small capacity turbo engines can be - really makes you speechless, Al’s Mini is sooo rare and here in the UK if on sale would be frighteningly expensive compared to what they cost when sold New, -so many early parts, the newer drivers door/alloy kick panel is wrong for the earlier car, get Al to check the inside of the wheels see if there welded or Riveted- the earlier ones we’re riveted, Engine has four blade - Export fan fitted, is the gear lever straight or bowed, earlier ones would be straight- really an extra special find would love to see this restored n driven
Thanks again - stay safe 👍
Great update as usual!
Watching the huge trim piece getting installed gives me nightmares.
I am working on one of my old Pontiacs. For ages I have been collecting trim pieces and I was trying to find fitting and intact molding clips. The few originals I had did not hold on the body anymore, broke in half or crumbled to pieces. I had to make my own clips, using modern days plastic "pinetree" clips that I put on steel plates I made from scratch. Then I had to drill holes in the body in the right spots Some jerk threw all the original moldings away and welded some of the original holes close and covered the rest with bondo.
When I finally installed the longest trim, an original clip slid out. I had to pull the molding a bit to replace it with a self made one. now the trim does not sit as it did at first.
3 days of work and more than half of the moldings are not yet in place as they should. (The problem are always the clips that are not reachable from the inside and cannot be screwed in place).
I had to have a one week break from my molding disaster. It takes a lot of nerves and patience to work on things like that.
thats a nice little mk1 Mini, hard to get! He is also lucky to have those vans too, they are VERY expencive and hard to get in New Zealand!
Good see the Austin ......they were good little cars ........my 1st car was a A40 Devon Countryman 1951.....Thanks
Still own mine................and it is still running good..............
Slick trick using vinegar to remove rust! I'm taking notes. The "gas station" garage has good styling, the pointed gable roof, wide fascia and the vintage enameled steel panels is all good design and a bit retro! I've never seen Datsun 510 wagon like that before, the ultimate sleeper! What a great find and great car that Mini is, it's a valuable car.
This episode brought to you by: The Canadian Ministry of Science & Physics; The Canuckistan chapter of British Automotive History; & the Tories Club of Appreciation for historic Japanese restomods. ...seriously, great episode! Thanks for all you put into it to entertain some of your brethren all over the globe.
Got that Phillips 66 look going for you....love it.. Great location for CORNER GAS the return...
Funny how 90% of your episodes I watch while hungover lol
Just used vinegar to wash the bathroom floor, should not be surprised that it removes rust too. Gotta get the back wheels for the Super 510, that's is a wild ride !
looking at the care and attention required to fit all those mouldings I can only imagine how crushed that the line workers felt every time Virgil Exner drew the next years model (not more bloody trim) these cars are the most beautiful cars of their time cant wait to see it finished awesome
You’re an amazing craftsman.
I have an 81 Dodge D 150, It's a stepside (Utiline in Dodge talk) and I replaced every brake line on it from the junction block to the wheels and the rear wheel cylinders because I was doing the shoes and they were under $10.00 for the pair at the time! I like this truck because I lowered it way down out of necessity, The right front spring broke on the end so I cut the left to match, cut the bump stops off and put shorter ones on! In the rear the spring mounts rusted of of the frame so I cut them down to good metal and welded them back on to the frame about 8 inches lower than original! Can't wait to see the addition done! I love the Datsun wagon, I hated them when they were new because I live in Ohio and they rotted so bad in the snow belt that Datsun bought them back after I had laid under countless ones welding the uni rails back in and building strut mounts! I have respect for any old car from the 70's and older that has survived no matter what it is Especially when it's fast enough to scare you!! The Fury is looking absolutely beautiful! I got a kick out of the camera mans comment about you taking the lower rear quarter mouldings off and there was nothing under them and you answered that it was the hardest part to build and you made it perfect just to cover it up with chrome! That's what separates the craftsmen from the hacks! My former business partner and I both happened to have the same cars and when he built some patches in his quarters he overlapped the metal and left his rough as a sack full of door knobs because the chrome covered it, When I did mine which was twice as bad I was working it like there was no chrome to cover it and he got mad at me but I couldn't leave it rough! He kept carrying on that it was stupid to make it smooth and cover it with chrome! I told him that if he couldn't run with the big dogs to stay on the porch! Then I told him the real answer, I didn't care if nobody could see it I would know it was there! For some reason even I couldn't explain it had to be perfect even if it was covered! I could see how happy you were for your Mini me buddy that he found such a cool car but I saw the disappointment when he said he wasn't going to paint it! We are from the same era when a good car got a perfect paint job! You have blown my mind on the Plymouth though with the panel shaping and the stainless repairs! You are getting close to a concourse restoration on this car! Sorry to ramble on but I'm old and that's what us old men do! I have 40 some cars to play with and I see yours and want to come and make them run and fix the brakes so they can be driven, The floors and rockers are easy if you can find old garage door tracks to use for the rockers then old roofs and other body panels to patch the floors! Then while you are at the junkyard get rocker mouldings from the cars that are there to cut and make fit to hide the garage door track! I have two modes Perfectionist and make do! Nothing in between!
By gum that Mini is an amazing find, the condition of the tinwork, the seams etc, wow. I'd not realised that the plan with the building was to replicate an old service station, can't wait to see it.
Nice work on the brake line. I had a 1996 Chevy 1500 WT and the line went. Had to use the parking brake for the next 2 days... mostly country. I didn't even bother bending the line similar to resemble the old line. In places where it was going to rub, I just wrapped it with fuel line for protection. The hill-billy approach. My frame was nearly as rusty as yours, if not the same. Layers of metal were just peeling off. Dad said not to worry, it was over built.
From rusty car in a field whith cow's sinking in mud to Beautiful Cold War Motors is Awesome Ps love Frankers 😁😁
In hindsight seeing Scots reaction to the Turbo Datsun - being a biker too he is used to acceleration - however he could someday retort with a Blown Straight Eight or simply glide along in the Fury - Ultra Cool as the vision is surreal. Takes a Lot to make the vision a reality. Big Respect and thanks for the extra videos that really brightened the weeks by. Intereting Austin 850 too,
That green '50 Dodge has been hanging around the Cold War Motors yard for quite a long time. I remember seeing it in the '69 Fairlane video
One of these days you should drop a cold start old start video and see what cars will still fire up in the yard that have been dormant for a while
If you ever want to get rid of those stone guards--be careful and don't throw them! You'll have a boomerang effect on your hands. G'day mate and throw some backbacon on the barbie!
Love the blue car trim it will look great when your done
Sleeper Datsun wagon, way cool !
The Fury is looking awesome. I'd love to see that old Dodge move under its own power. Those late 40s/early 50s cars are really growing on me.
Almost as much chrome on that Fury as there is on a '58 Buick Roadmaster!
That Plymouth is looking mighty fine, it's coming right along!
Fury is looking fantastic your new out building is coming along nice I wish I could be there to help and drool over you hoard of rusted gold ..Thanks again keep the vids rolling!!!!
Holy shit, that was tense stuff when you were putting that rear trim on 😳
That little 510 is a peach with a jalapeño heart. Great to see more trim shenanigans ✌
The Mini would be worth a fortune here in the UK.. there are a few other unique features that show its a very early car. The front and rear screen surrounds are flush, i.e. no joggle for the screen rubber. the front wing A panels have no joins, they were pressed out as a complete side panel with the rear quarters and the door catches where unique.. Ask al if he has the horn button as these are made of unabtainium, similar to the Morris Minor but a smaller size. love the show Scott...
It did still have the unobtanium horn button!
The amount of patience you show putting on that trim.....Jesus... I'd have lost my mind.. LOL.. You're a better man than I..
The Mini looked awesome.. I hope there is a follow on that build...
I'm sure we'll see a transmission transfer SOON!!
Stay safe! Peace and love my friend!!!
That Mark one mini is worth a lot money you can get all new parts for that in England it would look nice resprayed 😀👍
