    This episode is longer than normal and it goes in to detail as to why we wouldn't normally go to these lengths when making a video. If you have the mental capacity of a squirrels ball-sack, can't take in information or are a dull nonce that has little to offer the world, please skip this video and go watch Phil and Holly.
    The rest of you, Enjoy 😉

    I love how Brits start a sequence of dialog with "Right!". It's as though they are declaring at the start, "what I am about to say is authoritatively true".

    You have got to get it going, I was born in London, but through the 1950's I travelled up and down to Sunderland and back London and saw equipment dumps after the war full of these vehicles . I remember those trucks, thousands of them, all gone now, the survivors must be restored. Do it.

    I was hatched in 1950. As a child and in a previous life I lived close to a timber yard. The owners had 2 of these old gals hauling huge trailer loads of timber every day. The trailers were massive and the tractor units would be using every bit of power pulling those trailers up an incline.
    Great work both. Keep at her.

    Many moons ago a Glastonbury mud year.. I got to play in one of these. it was a monster. It made a fortune pulling rigs on and off site. It had a huge switch like something off the old Frankenstein movie to start it.. Was told not to brake hard or the cab might fall off. Loved it.

    @aveedub7403 Год назад +2

    This was a brilliant thing, to see the old girls "heart" turning over and potentially saving a piece of history was amazing! These trucks have always fascinated me with their looks, the ungainly looking cab etc. The fair that came to my village and still does had a collection of these little beuts as generator trucks and towing vehicles as well! Great stuff Guys!!

  • @adamweston4152
    @adamweston4152 Год назад +3

    I live in South Wales and a man who lived in my village called John Edwards had one of those and he was a wood cutter, after his passing the truck was sold in the nineties, it was something special to look at and became a local landmark.

    @trevorhewett834 Год назад +2

    Many thanks for a great watch again, I wasted a lot of time watching you on the tractor run & thoroughly enjoyed it, THEN you post this one about the Matador, I am 72 now but at the age of 19 I worked as a trailer boy on a Matador & pipe trailer for William Press in Kent & that one had all the window frames polished along with most of the copper pipes. It was amazing where we took it especially off road, one got the trailer loaded with pipes bogged & ours was hooked up to it with the winch & we could not move it, enter an RB 22 crane to pull our Matador plus the stuck one, the RB 22 was pulling itself toward us so it was anchored to a large tree & we managed to pull the trailer out, the tension of the total pull was frightening but the Matadors survived it.I have driven many AEC's over the years & just love them. Again many thanks.

    Good luck with it.

    This randomly appeared in my feed, watched in full with no skipping and loved it, great banter with the English make do and mend mentality. and what a beast that thing is! There use to be a massive scrap yard in Poole, Dorset alongside Ringwood Rd backing onto industrial land, it is long gone now as we use to knock around in it as kids in the late 1980's, it was full of these old birds, many with a turret ring in the roof for a gun mount at guess, I imagine most ended up in the smelting pot, from memory they're were generally pretty solid with good cabs still.
    Anyhow I've subbed to you lads and look forward to more, have a great Christmas.

    • @LordMuck

    The Maltese Cross on the red background was the flash for Malta Command and the red & blue insignia on the other side would indicate a Royal Artillery Unit. If they were both applied at the same time then the vehicle was probably used by an AA unit (possibly during the siege!), as they made up the majority of RA units on Malta during WWII. Great video as always, keep them coming! Love to see the Matadors!

      @randomoldbloke Год назад +1

      Before you go much further I would suggest pulling the sump off . The sludge in the heads reminds me of a 220hp Scania I was working on about 35 years ago . Temperature 30c plus and had to pull the sump to change the oil . First and only time I have changed oil with a shovel . Strange thing is there was still oil pressure before and after . The truck was doing line haul between Sydney and Melbourne doing about 6000k a week or 3 trips It was still going 2 years plus after when I changed jobs still without a problem . Ahhh the life of a diesel mechanic

    • @LordMuck
      @LordMuck  Год назад

    Thanks guys, great stuff! I know it's a lot of work, but just wanted to say it's appreciated!
    On another note, I'm no expert on these things, but my predication is she'll run. And when I say run, I don't mean sit there purring like a kitten at idle, but I think at the very least, she'll try to fire, and kinda run rough, then cough and die again, but I reckon now you've got her free there's probably at least some life there. And hey, if all else fails just dump all the ether down her throat and hope.

      @@LordMuck Indeed. As often happens in war, equipment gets shared officially and "unofficially" as well. You guys made some great equipment! Gardner diesels, Bristol Centaurus, Mosquito, Hurricane, Spit, Lysander, etc.
      I went to my Grandfather's base with him in 2000, and you guys came out with Jeeps, Studebakers, etc. Good stuff on your channel!
