top job boys love that car good show thank you cheers

You mention modifying Zenith Carburettors for Bugattis, I wish you’d do a video about that. I have had 36mm Zeniths on my type 30 and they gave me a lot of problems, as the needle valve wears they run leaner and leaner and the float height is difficult to adjust. I’m using 30mm barrel throttle Solexes now but they choke the engine so I struggle to get above 2700 RPM. I assume you remove the “mechanism” above the float, but what do you do to replace the needle valve?

I suspect original coating was celluloid (nitrocellulose), possibly dipped while slowly rotating, then removed from dip and kept rotating until hardened (rotated to avoid runs)

Magic keep it coming I just love seeing old race cars and especially when they are getting repaired and going again 👍

Vraiment intéressant! Bravo à ce Monsieur Grand Technicien Passionné !

Is that a fire pump engine?

Love all of Ivan’s videos. In this one, his description of how the driveshaft was trying to come through the shaft tunnel at Brands Hatch brought back memories of when just before Christmas many years ago, my 72 Capri 2600 rear shaft coupling was on its way out and I was hoping I could make it home before it let loose. Well I 😂didn’t, and there I was about 3 miles from home, and it was snowing to boot. Called AAA for a tow service and had it flatbedded home. As we pulled into the neighborhood with the wrecker, the streets were all lit up for Luminaria like an airport runway with cables burning in paper bags about every 6 feet, and everyone out Christmas Caroling in the streets to welcome us back in. Wish I had a video of it.

£800!

Loved the thrash in the country on board of the seven

Shame there are no more vids i hope you are ok and doing well

👍sure hope you live to finish all your projects

Is LBJ 274 out there?

Ooh never leave chuck key in chuck, first rule machine shop training FODENS they had fantastic machine shops all gone

Fab

Thanks again team

Just brilliant to see this sort of ingenuity, reuse and refurb...Thanks team

Is this part of the content stolen From Ivan by a feckless relative ?

Yet again very informative and enjoyable thanks

absolutely brilliant video, Thankyou!

For Buick engines you need to pack the external oil pump with Vasoline in order to get it to prime with oil. Would have worked perfectly for you too.

Sir, we would love to see you in a track with your Seven. Please do.

The fore-and-aft location of the DeDion tube is via 4 trailing links. What is the lateral location? From the shape of the tube, I suspect it is a Watt's linkage.

Did I spy a Sprite with a Speedwell Bonnet? I met the late John Sprinzel in Cokato Minnesota. The late Paul Weidner was there with his modified Sprite, bearing what Paul understood to be a Speedwell fiberglass bonnet. Paul asked John to sign the inside of the bonnet, and John happily complied. I later asked John if Paul's bonnet was a genuine Speedwell. "I have no idea. We made early ones in aluminium and I can tell if one of those is genuine, but with the GRP ones, I can't be sure." I never told Paul. Paul was taken far too soon. I hope to live as long as John.

Wow. On the opening montage, I saw the inboard disk brakes. That didn't look early-Seven to me! Nice to see where he got that setup. Wonderful. I have a Caterham with the DeDion rear, but the disk brakes are outboard.

Absolutely brilliant, an inspiration for me to get even more adventurous in my workshop!

What the fuck is that noise? It can't be misfiring that badly surely??

Just marvellous , being an old guy with my own small shed this is the real world, NOT managed reality.

Yet again, brilliant stuff

Watching that reminded me of my Bond three wheeler with a Villiers 198 engine. Just speeded up 100%.

Sounds like a mini on 2 cylinders 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Gees what a lovely old man..all the skills and knowledge just pour out of him. Charming and that lovely accent, maybe from a bygone age.

Lovely 1959 Morris Mini MInor

What a treat to POV that ride in that fantastic machine. Many thanks. 63 in the US.

Ivan is like the Fred Dibner of vintage racing 😊

Hi ivan you are a legend but wondering why the steering is on the pi55

I’ve had two Caterham 7s, but I’d love an original

The audio is my new ringtone. Thank you for the post.

Why

Superb, absolutely superb.

Well, I certainly enjoyed that!

Beautiful! Wishing you all the best.

Thank you!

"But it´s a Prototype" "Screw that, we live only once, let´s give her the beans!" LOVELY! 99% the times stuff like that is put in cotton balls- here it´s ran balls out. I can imagine both engines put into cars and be driven.

Lovely '59 Mini ,did not see the floor starter Ivan! i used to drive a Morris 10/6 and it had a floor starter and immobiliser!Ivans mini go very well ,they like being driven!

Hey, are we getting more Ivan videos? I could watch him qll day. Loved stumbling 9ver his/your content. Ivr binged the lot. Hope hes okay and i hope we get more of him. Im subbed to shed racing too. Thank you for getting his stories out there. I love it ❤

👍👏😎

I love my Fiat Twinair. Purrs like a kitten. Amazing what can be done with a small engine. If only mini went with this.

❤️👍

Are we gonna see the Austin Seven one day?

This was the thing that I was most curious how they deal that starter oil filter dilemma. Neat solution, I have relogated several startermotor and thinkin I´m pro with that busines but these guyis werent helples either.
