I've been running a 50Ah lithium for a year, and if you're not running a big inverter or camping in one spot for a week, it's all most people really need. I can run a fridge (A Kings fridge, at that, so not that efficient) and a basic 12v camp setup for 2-3 days off it, and the battery will be fully charged in 2 hours driving. If I wanted to stay stationary for longer, can easily add in a solar blanket to keep it topped up.
LOL 17:08 "We're entering the 20th century with the cruiser" Congrats. Be sure to let us know when you catch up to the rest of us in the 21st century.🤪😁
Don't apologise maaaate, stoked to see anything you lads put out on the tube. Always a laugh! Frothin your 12V setup, keen to do something similar in the rear of my Luxxy. Keep sending!
79's coming together very nice. We just got all the sony ES 5 channel amp,ES 3 way speakers and new floating head unit in our new troopy from AAV on the goldy here and it sounds friggen good.
From a 4th year apprentice sparky who does everyone 12 volt systems in there 4wd, vans, utes, trucks it’s good seeing another sparky do the exact same thing as I do for my cashy work, best to put a fire extinguisher in the car just incase shit turns downhill, there is a company that makes a bracket for under the seat and touch wood haven’t used it yet on my car but have used it on a skid pig once and saved the car 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Hope you’re feeling better soon mak. Sorry but I lold a bit to hard at you on the beach with that guy walking his dog. This 12 volt system is out of this world. 👍🏽
hey gents, regardless of the hiccups (getting sick), the video turned out great. Its awesome to see the progress of the toy-yoda. Brilliant video this week
Quality set up fellas, done properly. Hope that man flu comes right, no wonder we live up the other end of the coast, trying to keep away from that lurgy 🙏✌️✌️✌️
4 inch dash speakers suck especially in an old 80 like mine, they dont look like they've changed at all in 23 years 😂. I added 6 inch speakers in the doors but kept the drivers side 4 inch one in and connected it to the UHF speaker output for that bit of extra volume or when your passenger has the mic (meaning also the speaker with the hideaway XRS units)
Gday, mate you looked as crook as shit and I’m surprised at how much you got done, top effort there, definitely going to be a different cruiser soon, cheers
When you mentioned that you run the wiring through the car and then the firewall, did you run the wiring along the door footwells? Or through the roof and then down the pillars?
Mac, keep a spray bottle with soap and water on hand. Not only does it help getting those wires through those little grommets, it will kill wasps and hornets and bees. Label it tho.🧐
I have a question, I was always told to use a heat gun on heat shrink, not a naked flame. Being the gun sparky you are, can you shed life any light on why?
Na she’s gravy mate I’ve never heard that one before! I probably wouldn’t go slamming the flame on there and melting it haha but na flame is gone end of the day heat is heat!
You can’t not watch these videos with a smile on your face, such a clean setup!
Thanks mate !
Yep, having a shitty day and this episode made me smile. !
Nice seeing someone go fit for purpose on the 12v. Such a tidy set up guys
Thanks mate !
Best way to do a 12v install. Nice and stealthy. Really turning into dream spec cruiser
Quickly become my favourite channel guys, absolutely love your stuff. The attention to detail is second to none!
Thanks mate!
Magical moments with the ol gear stick haha

Our thoughts exactly! But we will see how it performs soon 😎

Awesome vid boys so keen to do my cruiser interior now Macca haha
I wasn’t a big fan on interior but now I’ve jazzed it up I’m mega stoked I did it!
Neat 12v setup Macca. Done properly 👌
Most hacked up drift cars have more modern comfort then 79s hahaha. Its gonna be sick! cant wait to see the finished product.
Thanks mate yeah coming together for sure !
Hahaha ur not wrong either 😂
Looking forward to the next one!

Love watching you boys favourite part of my day 😂
Alot of those door panel parts look like theyd fit my 92 pickup! Ive been needing cupholders and speaker pods 🧐
Max was here 2023 😂 Sick video guys! Killing it as always 👌
Only 2 speakers wow. I was surprised when I picked up my Pajero to find from factory it comes with a subwoofer in the back
I’m surprised that fisherman on the beach didn’t bash you!! Hilarious
Congratulations new bmc (bmcruiser)
Haha 😂
Another awesome video, cheers fellas!
Need some seats for the 79
Yeh one day for sure!
Do you have a video of how you set up the roof top tent?
Hook those crappy standard speakers to ur uhf. Works a awesome
Ahhh true sic idea
sweet upload, and some awsome looking gear.
Paddles on the wheel next?
Cheers
Jim
Thanks Jim
Dunno if that’s possible 🤔 maybe !
Macca and TJ are rad! ..and sent me here ;-)
That kinchrome stool thing is a dirt bike stand 10:59
Would love to see you fully blackout the interior
Now that’s a big effort haha maybe one day!
Did I see some coil overs in the corner of the shed next to the vacuum cleaner🧐
K-truck 😊
Might be able to keep the old shifter in the bedside table 👀🥵😏
Clean! Although Mac’s turned the Cruiser into an Ineos Grenadier with that shifter. Not sure how I feel about that 😅
Hahahaha well nice to drive at least hopefully 😂
Killer shades TJ!! 🤣 legend 🤟
Shame the PVS team dont make anything for mazda bt50's :( This gear looked nice!
Awesome vid guys!
Great episode. Yeoman's effort under trying conditions. Keep wondering WTH else can be done to the 79????
Hi Guys, I was wondering how the shed floor paint is holding up? Im about to do my own shed...
So far so good we spilt a fair bit of oil and brake fluid on it 😅
Gday, mate you looked as crook as shit and I’m surprised at how much you got done, top effort there, definitely going to be a different cruiser soon, cheers
Thanks mate defs was a tough week! Had some late nights to try catch up and get an episode for yas!!
1,2,3,4 I went to Kinchrome and declared a thumb war 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Haha my man!
Well done Macca! Nice Job!
When you mentioned that you run the wiring through the car and then the firewall, did you run the wiring along the door footwells? Or through the roof and then down the pillars?
Along the floor mate ! 😎
Lookin’ schmick Macca! 🤌🏽
love the content.. Man flu is a thing hahaha... why did you swap shifters? asking for a mate
Nailed it!
Best channel 🙌🏽
Mac, keep a spray bottle with soap and water on hand. Not only does it help getting those wires through those little grommets, it will kill wasps and hornets and bees. Label it tho.🧐
Its not about how big it is but where you put it...
Indeed 😂
Kleeeeeeeeeen love it man I love that rig another mad epp guys cheers take care and enjoy #shukkas #garrett #Hazzadventureslovestjandmac❤
Looks awesome 👌 Are you running the main power for the compressor off the start battery and triggering off tvms?
is there a link to where you got the bracket for to mount in the back ?
Hey mate can’t find which head unit you used model etc cheers
2 fridges off 60amph might be pushin it brother especially with roof top power. Does it check out on paper?
We will see soon I guess ! Haha 😂
I have a question, I was always told to use a heat gun on heat shrink, not a naked flame. Being the gun sparky you are, can you shed life any light on why?
I use a blow torch 😂
Would be quick 🤣 just didn’t know if it damages the integrity or something 🤷♂️
Na she’s gravy mate I’ve never heard that one before! I probably wouldn’t go slamming the flame on there and melting it haha but na flame is gone end of the day heat is heat!
Whats the best weekend 12v system? And what does it consist of?
If u only use it for a weekend and not often probably a go block or something similar!
Hey Macca, how do you go with dust ingress in the tub?
Confused about where you got the door speaker mounts from?
PVS have them on the website apparently 😎
As much as it will pain you... switch to PAL compatible frame rates. You lose 120 but you'll get rid of that flicker when you're inside.
Na we film outside more often so can’t bring myself to do it 😅 hate pal
Funny fuckers, love all the content, keep em coming.👍
Soo does the steering wheel have cruise control?
So did you finish it. How’s it look? How’s it working… episode kind of just fell off a cliff
Yeah still going
Sorry bout that 😅 tried to explain at the end
mad whens next luxy vid
We r working on getting it out next but one problem after another ☹️
How do you mount to your auto transmission on 8 speed
Love ya work Mac proper meat install 👌
Invest in some pinch weld mate.
Even my trailer has a bigger battery, geeez
Ur trailer doesn’t even have a floor 😂
All that gears probably worth more than my kidney.
And mine 😅 , Tj
Bro fishing proper like wtffff
Ahh yes, that first year when the kids start going to childcare...never have been so continuously sick. Little munchkins
Bless em! 😂
