That mini dozer was a kit sold in the late 50’s early 60’s. My friend Neighbor has one and they are worth a lot on money.
I just bought one a few days ago picked it up for $500 and runs awesome
I just wanted to say, I truly enjoy your videos. You always make laugh even on bad days, so thank you. Keep up the good work.
Cool video Jimmy. I enjoyed watching you two struggle to get this old 4 cylinder engine to run. Thanks for sharing.
For the first million or so prop throws were you running into basically a vapor lock with the squeeze bottle? I didn't see a vent hole to allow the fuel to flow freely from it.
A vent hole would definitely be needed
2 Jimmy videos in one day sweeeeeeeeet, Clear Prop & throw it.
Jimmy, the VW starter bolted to the bellhousing thar in turn bolted to the transaxle....My brother used to build VW motors and he would use a cutaway VW bellhousing to stand test engines...looks like you have room in there to add a starter and clear the mag. If position is wrong ...depending on application the starter could clock at a different position according to bellhousing application. Also, it looks like you have room for an alternator stand under the shroud. The cooling fan delete shouldn't be a problem as it does nothing to support the alternator. It's just a drive through the alternator to drive the fan.
Also old VWs that have sat awhile can have some sticky valves as well as valve face/seat rust. These normally clear up after start up.. but it doesn't hurt to pop the covers, lube the valves, then give then a few light hammer taps prior to start up. This is also the time to check valve lash
Why are you NOT thee #1🥇🏆 aviation channel on RUclips™️ Jimmy!??🤷🏻♂️…You should be breaking the internet or at the very least,RUclips with your videos!! OMG I thought my bladder was gonna have a catastrophic failure or choke to death when you said,”This is TOTALLY safe”….LOLOLOLOL🤣🤣🤣…..Keep the AWESOME content coming and please keep us posted on the Elvis Memorabilia! Not sure if your going to be accepting preorders but if you do,please mark me down for a piece of ELVIS(and Jimmy) history!! Obviously,the sky is NOT your limit Jimmy!!🫶🙏✌️😎
Thanks so much! Elvis memorabilia update coming next Friday :)
Struck mini-dozer! So cool. I wanted one of those really-really bad as a kid. I remember having them send me their catalog, (60's I think),. They're a bit of a collector thing nowadays. I think that airplane might need a re-cover. Just a guess, 😁
Jimmy I accidently stumbled across your channel and let me say that I enjoy it so much I just had to take a moment to let you know. Thank you so much for allowing this old man to have something to enjoy. Better than any TV show I have seen. Jimmy you are something else.
Well said
Can I get a clear prop!
@@loishope6605 CleeeeAAaaarR PrRoooooop
Jesse is a great addition to the Jimmy nation!
As long as those are mosquito bites and not fresh track marks on his arms. I was a bit concerned.
@@OverthePantsClayHJlast video there were some on his neck so I’m gonna say mosquito bites.
Wow Col. Louis George Mason If this is the owner, he lived an interesting life he was special forces. He was both a military and FAA certified parachute rigger and instructor he was appointed to the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) He was a collector of model trains, building a large train room in his retirement home for his “O Scale” trains Lou was a lifetime member the Special Forces Association (“Decader”), a life member of the Army War College Foundation and a member of the Army Navy Country Club in Arlington, Va. In addition, he belonged to the Special Forces Regiment, designated as an “ARSOF Icon” (Army Special Operations Forces), a DARPA Alumni, Distinguished Member of the Quartermaster Corps, and a Quartermaster Corps Hall of Fame recipient. I just love the history behind that airplane it is so fascinating the man, the myth, a legend
Why is it that every video I see on restarting old engines, nobody thinks to change the oil and filter as a first step? At least these guys didn't use the 12 year old gas. Bill
Mini Dozer would make a great tow tug. I agree with it being another start up video. P.S. love the WW1 clone. Wish I had a place to put it...🤓
More mini-dozer content!
what is its real name even?
@Typical Sharky
I believe that it is manufactured by Struck.
That little dozer looks like one you could buy yrs ago. They were usually for sale in the back of magazines. You should buy that and use it to tow your small aircraft.
Jimmy needs that little dozer!
They still make them today. Even have versions with a front loader and backhoe. Also make ones that are a little bigger.
That old refrigerator will probably still work! Unlike the ones you buy today where the compressor goes out in 2 to 3 years
Today’s outlets would burn up trying to feed 40 amps to start the compressor lol
A modern fridge will last ten years plus, easily.
@@johnnunn8688 I believe he was being funny
it is all those silicon diodes
@@gavinkeller183 if so, he failed; miserably.
Keep up the good work Jimmy where is your son There is no better history than right there
Most kids are in school around this time of year.
Jesse you have the right stuff. Glad you're on the team. Jimmy needs all the help he can get.
A plus for maximum effort on this one Jimmy!😮
One thing I learned long ago, that first start is always the hardest.
Jimmy & Jesse's world ftw
Where did you find Jesse?? He seems like such a cool guy!
A garage sale???
man i love seening these old planes makes me want to get back in to ultralights
What could possibly go wrong 🤷♂ You wont find me flying in it, but once its been sorted its going to make someone a nice flying machine 👍👍
Volkswagon motors are commonly used in light aircraft. they can be dependable if fully gone over. My neighbor built a plane and put a VW motor in it and flew it off the cow pasture field across the street from our suburban homes in Wichita. It worked he flew it around and brought it back and landed it. Homemade airplane he welded together in his basement. Experimental. Worked. this was early seventies when I was a child.
You needed to have your fuel bottle vented, a closed bottle system would create reverse Suction to the carb not allowing fuel to flow, hence the reason it would run when you manually squeeze the bottle forcing fuel pressure into the carb. She would of started within 10 blades with proper fuel I'd say, great video tho!
My thoughts too!
I'm down to see the Struck Mini Dozer run. Had one years ago and it was handy.
2 jimmys world one friday? I wonder where my reignigted desire to fly something besides a fancy kite is coming from!!!
Mini dozer, “can I get a … ‘clear track!’”
LMAO!!! I will use that line 5 times today!! "I can see the runningness from here."
I keep thinking I need to hitch up my 30' flatbed trailer and come down there and start taking the wings off and loading them up to haul to Florida for you. That old SE5 would fit in real well here on our field T7SO. Grass strip 25 miles north of Fort Worth..... My friend and neighbor restores old airplanes for a living, and I built this trailer to haul his airplane finds here on it. We've got warbirds, biplanes and a bunch of those guys who pretend they are in ALaska that do all that STOL stuff! up here on the field.
Don’t think, ACT!
❤ I love Jimmy's videos and I really dig his humor. He always entertaining and fun to watch, great stories and interesting aviation content! I'm subscribed and I'm big follower of Jimmy's and his latest videos with Jessy are amazing!! Thank you so much Jimmy and Jessy for providing me with so much fun watching your show's.❤❤❤❤❤❤
Morning coffee and a new video from Jimmy's World.....only way to start the day..!
By "clear prop" do you mean standing 2 feet behind it? :D
Jesse is sitting on that thing like he's riding a 4 wheeler. He's making sure none of those spiders climb up on him lol. Jimmy if Jesse rides in this thing you better put a parachute on him because if one of those spiders climb up on him he's bailing out
Cool on How You changed the Lyrics from Gilligan's Island. IT RUNS!! Wow!
Jimmy ..can I send ya another rc plane to play with ? Maybe some side video fun ? Lol
Hey Jimmy if you are interested I have friend who has a Bowers Flybaby Biplane done up a WW1 German fighter to complement you WW1 AC that he would be willing to sell over near Marshall, Tx. It is powered by a real aircraft engine, a Lycoming 125 hp engine. He also has a Smith Mini Biplane that needs a lot of love too.
a biplane Flybaby resembles a S.E5. better than some of the replicas because the bi plane version has sweep in both the top and bottom wings like a S.E.5.
The answer to that question is, 'It's because they're much simpler and they don't as many components as a newer aircraft.' This means that there's less to go wrong. Jimmy, I watch other people's RUclips videos. Most of them clean out the carburetors of the engines they're on. So many of them are quite dirty, with their passages clogged with dried fuel. A few of them put them in parts washers to rid them of that dried fuel. Sleeper Dude has one of those cleaners. I didn't see you once you cleaned a single carburetor. I believe that those difficult to start engines would start sooner in the event you clean those carburetors instead of needing to spin a prop at the front of those aircrafts. You know how sore your arm will be the morning after you spun them a few hundred times, as you and Jesse did with that Volkswagen engine in that replica.
I like how ya aim the plane directly at the rental car.
he has the extra insurance
Jimmy, you two Dudes need some serious "Mental" evaluation! But, ya al' have "Gitter Dun" tenacity! Thanks, Enjoy all your videos, keep em' comin'! Be safe!
Jimmy, those whole ...let's say - fleet of crooked birds , reminds me just two worlds: Dastardly & Muttley
I want that little dozer, it would be great for drinkin beer and pushing small amounts of dirt.
Thanks for the audio improvements - sounds much better, headphone users appreciate the levels not getting low then spiking. GRACIAS!
Jimmy be careful when you hand prop it I saw you grab the prop with your fingers just he careful
Hey Jimmy. Take it from someone who has done a LOT of hand propping, do NOT curl your fingertips over the prop unless you are willing to losse them. All it takes is one backfire. 😮
Would love to see you get it flying and take it up! Love the videos! My dad was a private pilot growing up so I have a lot of hours up with him lol. It takes me back instantly every flight cockpit video. He unfortunately passed several years ago so I greatly appreciate your videos! Keepem comin! 😊
You guys fry me like a sliced potato! That little dozer might have a Kohler engine with compression release. Yinz get an A for persistence.
Jimmy, I was always taught to never stand to the side of a spinning prop, even with rc model planes. Those are old machines and if there was a defect on a prop that you hadn't seen and it lost a blade when rotating fast it might go right through you and that's the end of Jimmy's World😢
Be careful where you stand buddy!
love to see a restore with the fabric...its not something common and todays glue etc would be interesting to see...Then if it flies ... the value might go up... wcpgw...?
The value would go up! Heck, could probably recoup 30% of the cost of materials to recover the plane. Labor would have to be free.
If the fabric is still within strength limits why waste money recovering it? The fabric appears to have no UV barrier so it needs to be stored out of the sun, which it was but otherwise, polyester fabric has a very long lifespan.
Your making news, the Elvis plane is featured in articles outside of utube
Anybody else shouting "PIVOT!"?
My grandpa and I watch your videos a lot! And if you’re ever in SD that would be awesome to say hello to ya jimmy
So cool. Some day I’ll find my own dusty old biplane. I’ll live vicariously through yours.
We have a saying in Australia. Jimmy got it going, but Jesse loosened her up for him.
that thing is like flying in a 55 gallon drum.....or maybe one of those kiddy trains at the pumpkin patch someone strapped an engine and wings too
Hopefully someday I'll be saving planes and flying just like Jimmy
It will start and run to the crash site at the end of the runway….where, on taxi it just folds up to a pile of misc. random parts.
Hey guys, just wanted to say have a good day
Edit: Didn't he already do this plane? I thought he did it last week.
Last one was Rotax powered
How is that jury-rigged bottle of fuel, supposed to feed?
Do you think that if you are little fuel bottle was vented it would have kept running?
Heroic. The VW engine in it is hilarious! Be fun to taxi around if the rudder works, and you have a working kill switch :).
Awesome. A British biplane? I love your videos man.
Britain built more Biplanes that most other countries... Sopwith Camel and SE5a being the most famous :)
It’s a kit aircraft, built in Texas.
With a German engine
Would love to buy one of your projects......love the WW1 SE5
Why are random words flashing on the screen in the beginning??
❤❤❤those vintage double decker aircrafts are nice, good find there Jimmy!😊❤
Love the Airspeed tops out at "80".....VNE = 81
Your bottle tank had no vent, to let air in so that’s why the fuel wouldn’t flow?
That’s a Struck mini dozer!! I had one! They can pull like crazy but not so much on pushing! Fun little machine though!
You can spin that prop till your arm falls off but it won't start until you put some gas in it.
Jesse seems to be ready to run JIMMY'S NUT HOUSE. HE has his own personality and works his own magic to get some of the "old gem" Texas Brush hopper P.O.S. PLANES
Running àgain. Trump would be proud
If you use some starter fluid is would lite up real quick and draw fuel into the engine in a hurry but knowing you guys 25-30 pulls. VW engines are really reliable so maybe 10 for germany engineering. Your fuel tank doesn't have a vent line on it so might create a suction and keep fuel from entering engine too.
He was using ether spraying it directly into the intake.
I love old sheds and the stuff they hold
Stunning content. As a content creator who happens to fly, I’ve always tried to be different by being genuine. So many of your comments ring true, from the keyboard warriors, who forget the video was edited, to the regulators in my case, the CAA, who always seem to be casting their beady eyes over everything we do. (it is nice to know that they’re watching). And nice to know that we have similar thoughts - keep it up!!!
I would seriously love to buy this SE5. Are you guys selling it? Let me know how to get a hold of you.
Love that old plane. I’m betting a good carb cleaning and fresh fuel and shed run good. Definitely like to have it
You have to realize that probably one of the most prolific motors available at the time. This would have come out of the VW beetle one of the later years, it being a dual port head it would be over 60hp. Some of them had fuel injection.
As always, great job. How I would love to be able to help you with these beautiful aircraft. No morphine needed today thank you 👍🏻🇦🇺🇦🇺
Love the work....
Put a hole/vent in the fuel bottle...
solved many mystery file issues..
"I can't believe you have one of those frigde from Edward Hallstrom. You are in an historic place Jimmy. This refrigerator that Jessy displayed was one of the first household refrigerators that run with common kerosene fuel. Your in the 1920's Jimmy. "The Roaring 20's."
I Love the Aircraft Jimmy. I like when everything was simple. I know the gas tank was a bit rusty, but? You only need to replace it with a vinyl tank. I am amazed you also have the gas bottle technique, i thought I was the only one that knew about it. However? When ever you use this bottle or any other please include a vent to assure easy fuel flow and top up cap of gas jet or jets at the carburetor fuel bay. The German's were masters at Engine Construction. This Engine was only suppose to start at one, or a half crank."
~I feel we suppose to be friends Jimmy; Because? You like what I like.~ 👍
Awesome plane there Jimmy. Stay safe my friend.
Great video on how to strengthen your arms and shoulders😂. Lots of reps. A little cleaning, replace some fabric and she will be good to go. I really want to see the dozer going. Jimmy, you could take it to your reserve weekend as a heavy equipment operator and impress your buddies.
Clear Prop!
Is that a Glastar kit in the background? That would be worth building!
A Martin Hollman designed Stallion. Kinda like a Cessna 210 with its cantilever wing and Retractable Gear
If you find it ironic to have a German engine in this replica WW1 British aircraft....... get this, for a good while, there was no-one in the UK that could overhaul warbird props, for a long while every WW2 era bird in the UK (and I'm not talking replicas, I'm talking the genuine article, including those operated by the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight) were getting their props overhauled by a German company. How's that for a sad irony. A company has since popped up in the UK that can do it, and I believe they're now the company of choice for warbirds over here, so that weird, ironic situation is no longer the case, but that's how things were for a great many years.
I know what's wrong with it , it got no gas in it😅
Have you come up what a small piece of elvis jetwill cost? Like post card size. Take the wing fuel tanks and make the fenders for the rear wheels. Use part of the fuel tanks for to store fuel
Geez, I think this plane would make a great DRONE
Your like the vice grip garage of aircraft an I love it
Be Cautious of spinning propellers
My eldest brother, who is now deceased, would have loved this. He was a private pilot and a bit of a daredevil, so he would have patched up the wing and tried to fly this oldie.
I've been looking for one of those dozers for years lol, drop it off in the panhandle with a chute😊
The slime bottles are a genius idea 💡
Jimmy I noticed you are getting more white hair 👨🦳I wonder if it was the Elvis
So far Jimmy got lucky with those vintage flyers and far as the start up count, usually after Jessy and Jimmy doing their peaking and twerking usually they start on the 3rd or on the 4th full revolution, therefore my quote is it will start on the 4th!😊❤🎉
I think you lost. :)
@@amcconnell6730 I suppose you're right!
Nothing better than getting something running that's been sitting
If you ever need a hand around the Daytona area give me a ring.
Great, awesome job and video. Keep on keeping on top of the clouds 💪
Looks like a Struck Corp dozer. They were in the back of every popular mechanics magazine in the 70s.
the biplane how much?
Great video mate, it sounds great!!!
I want to see you fly this plane.
