  • In episode 36 of Project Binky we carry on where we left off at the cliffhanger ending of episode 35. There's a lot more stuff to put on the car before we can attempt to start it, but will it go?

    I didn't have a child or own my home when this series started... I just dropped my daughter off for her first day of 1st grade, and I'm sitting at my desk in my garage in my home. What an amazing ride, and we're not even done yet. I can't wait until my daughter tells me about the first test drive when I'm in a rocking chair at an old folks home.

    After almost exactly 8 years since Episode 1 (only 3 days off) we finally see it running, and I couldn't be more excited. I have learnt so much from watching this series that I have applied to my own car builds. Absolutely love everything about this build. The car itself, your way of doing things along with your fucking deadpan humor and the production quality of the videos are all 10/10.
    Can't wait to see it move under it's own power, and then later see you continue on your other projects.

      Few people know that Project Binky was originally started by Abraham Lincoln, who wanted to swap the horses in his carriage and perhaps add a few brackets. Sadly, he had to pass on the project to others, on account of being murdered. After some rethinking and overengineering (with a cup of tea, obvs), it's 2021 and Binky is nearly finished.

      Nope, the low down is that Project Binky originated as a covert op during Queen Victoria’s reign.
      It was intended to ensure that British gentlemen had a sufficient quantity of bracketry secreted about their person at all times to secure the empire, hence the original project code name ‘Prince Albert’. Where better to hide a small piece of ironmongery or two, after all?
      Following reports of growing resistance amongst the gentry to having brackets, or ‘Prince Alberts’, surreptitiously fitted to their private areas, the decision was taken to provide for future British bracket requirements by developing a mobile and more gender neutral alternative that could proceed at speed to wherever a shortfall of brackets might threaten Britain’s global security and wider interests.
      This revised approach to the problems presented by the ‘Prince Albert’ scheme was dubbed ‘Project Binky’ and it is the glorious culmination of that effort that we hear today.
      It has all come a long way, from that first quiet clang issuing forth from an unnamed hero’s nether regions, to the out there triumphant roar and unapologetic turbo whistle that heralds a new age in global dominance for this fine nation, all well underpinned by readily accessible brackets in enough quantity to secure the most dire of situations, of course.
      God Save The Queen! 🇬🇧🫖

      I'm guessing that he keyed the standoff piece at a bigger OD and then tapped the the threads on a lathe. That way he could tap one end, then spin it around and be 180 degrees off +/- degree at the correct length. Then he could have used the lathe to cut the OD and remove the key slot. Since he has O-rings to hold the pressure, and the mating fittings hold the angle... He doesn't need to stretch the threads to hold pressure, the ID of the standoff piece will compress the O-rings and do that for him.

    I know my comment will probably get lost in all the excitement but hopefully someone sees it. The E154F transmission has both synchros and hypoid gears and you can't use regular GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil. Toyota has a special fluid called GL-5 Super they used for these transmissions. I didn't see what was poured in there. The closest alternative is Redline 75w90NS + 1 quart of synthetic synchromesh + 1 quart Redline Heavy Shockproof. Its very similar to subaru transmissions and that's what I've been running for a few years in my Celica GT4.

GL-5 is great for synchros, but terrible for hypoid gears (basically an offset ring and pinion). It doesn't have enough cushioning to it. GL-4 does, but it's corrosive to yellow metals, as in synchros. So you have to find the gear oil that's not too slippy, or synchros don't work right, the right viscosity for the VC center diff, and has enough cushion to protect the hypoid gears from extreme pressures and wear.

      "And then we put it in a ditch."
      In true kitcar style they should use the old Mini running gear on the MG...
      I was trying to decide what I felt about the end being nigh, becuase I do wonder if they'll manage another project before they're too old to hold spanners. Here's boping though.

    What a fantastic episode; well engineered solutions to problems, quality fabrication, schoolboy humour and innuendo, good music, and excellent production and narration.
    All around great entertainment. Like so many posters on here, I have enjoyed every minute of every episode, waited with anticipation for the next, learned a lot, and laughed a lot.
    I huge achievement by you both, and a big thanks to your patrons and sponsors.
    I’m sure you are justifiably prod with yourselves and each other.
    Thanks.

      Don't stress Johannes, it's got to be a build-up to an incredibly long wait for the next one! Consistency is key.
