Fixin' the Vixen Episode 3: Clutch troubles.
Welcome back to episode 3 of our Vixen series. Today we are working on getting the Vixen moving. After sitting in the scrapyard and not having been driven in who knows how long, the Vixen had multiple issues that would cause it not to stat and move. We already got the engine running in the last episode so today we're working on getting the clutch fully operational.
Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for following along our journey.

I love these long form videos! Honestly I could watch hours of this! Keep it up
Wow your dedication is admirable! Keep doing what you do, cant wait to see more of this alien!
Thanks so much dude! You’ll definitely be seeing a lot more of it in the future!
It was that close to becoming scrap and now she is running and moving. What a great rig. Congrats
I know it’s wild to think this thing might’ve been crushed but with a little work (lot of work) it can possibly be used and enjoyed for years to come!
Great to see this in a longer form Content than on ig! Hope we get a detailing episode one day, that and cool wheels with Angel eyes too!
@@ingediaingedia4368 Ayy thanks for watching the vid 🙏 definitely planning on detailing it up and making it fresh! I wanna get the mechanical down first though cause we’re gonna make it dirty again working on it haha!
great step forward with getting it moving, stopping is overrated... lack of visibility takes some getting used to, I drive 18 wheelers for a living, there is no need for seeing everything.
Thanks! You only need brakes if you plan on stopping haha! Or like my buddy used to say. If you’re big enough, they have to get out of your way!
3:49 "my pocket screwdriver" LMFAO
😂 you should see my pry bar!
this is going to be such an interesting series, a few other people mentioned it but this would be perfect in landscape with less music and more audio from the actual videos you guys take. ive never seen one of these vixens before so i bet this could get a lot of traction on youtube like that !! super rad vehicle
also this thing would be a show stopper at a car show like oblivion or radwood, i absolutely love it
@@kato6463 Ay thanks for the recommendations! Unfortunately when I filmed the first few episodes I didn’t expect people would actually want to see long form vids so I only filmed in portrait. But for the rest of them they’re all landscape! Check back this page in a few hours the next episode is going live and it has a lot of those changes so I hope you’ll like it!
@@kato6463 and definitely planning on bringing it out to lots of shows especially oblivion!
What is the the name of the colour?
I believe its just Schwarz
🎉 when it turned over 🎉 we’re ready for the next episode!
@@BrandonE90M3 it was a party for real! 🙌 next episode coming soon!
Such an interesting car and series to watch! Would love to have it in landscape though (TikTok also allows landscape now I think). Also pleeease: no music over purring engines. Would've loved to hear the sound 🥰
@@MRoth93 thanks for the tip! I know I’m kicking myself for shooting the first 2 episodes only in portrait but the rest of them from now on will be in landscape! And haha this thing sounds like a tractor but I’ll quiet down the music for you next time no worries 🙏🙌
I'm so curious about these cars. I like to see more and longer videos!
@@Kevjann thanks! More videos coming soon!
I’m obsessed with these series !
@@vickys4690 thanks for following along 🙏🙌
really want to follow this build but I think it would gain more of an audience in a more raw/long form content. Either way excited to see what happens.
@@519Dakota hey thanks for the tip! What kind of video would that look like? More like just an hour long straight unedited video working on the car?
@@VulcanMotorWorks I personally would be down to see that. Especially since I can say with certainty that I will never get the opportunity to get under one of these myself and wrench and being an M20 guy seeing M21 stuff is familliar and incredibly odd at the same time.
@@karmatose ah alright good to know I’ll try to get some more stuff like that out then it’s much easier to just point the camera and do minimal editing haha. I’ll try to get a video out soon whenever I get a chance to work on the vixen
@519Dakota @karmatose I'm working on some of this stuff right now. Would you guys rather just the raw video or have some light background music in there too?
@ raw video preferably ✌️
🙌🙌
Thanks! 🙌
Awesome. Followed you over here from IG, can't wait to see the rest of the episodes.
Ayy thanks so much! Working on more episodes every day!
Bro if you dont keep posting on yt i will vandalize the vixen
The amount of effort those shifts take is hilarious.
Just a chill guy fixing really cool cars. Keep it up! Love to see it
Where can I order the seal from?
Should be able to get it from BMW or any parts suppliers that have BMW parts
What did you spray to clean it?
Brake cleaner
First! Doing good deeds there. Swap subs? Already hit yours, Thanks.
Really cool! I like how the mirror got a -1Hp 😂
Haha thanks I only damaged it a little bit 😢😂
This would be an amazing restoration
@@natsofatso1969 thanks that’s the plan!
Lovin these videos can’t wait to see it on the road 😃
Thanks so much! 🙏 shouldn’t be too much longer till we have those vids done 🙌
Have already been keeping up on insta and love to see the progress. Would definitely love more details on it. Keep it up!
Thanks for following along it means so much to us that people actually watch the silly videos we make 🙏 more vids coming soon!
Hell yea brother, lookin forward to pretty much anything you guys do!
Thanks dude! 🙌🙏
Awesome to see something this rare love the content keep it coming
Thanks I appreciate it! 🙌 more content coming soon!
I am tuned in! I have been fixing up an Isuzu camper I imported a few years ago and this is the perfect content to get me motivated to finish my project this coming spring
Ah so cool I’ve always wanted one of those Japanese RVs too! They’re so well built. If I didn’t find this vixen I’m sure I would’ve ended up in one. Good luck with your project 🙌
Great job 👏
Thanks, I appreciate it! 🙏
They had the oil filter off because they did an oil Analysis and it wasn’t good
@@user-gu8wy5er3m so far it’s been ok but I’ll do my own test and see how it goes
Loving the content bro, looking forward to more 🙏🏽
@@bendaga Ay thanks bro I appreciate it! More coming soon! 🙌
looking forward to the rest of the series
@@PieterHansma77 thanks 🙏 more will be posted soon!
Love it 💜

They dont make like these anymore
M System II (throwing stars) M System I (turbines) Both wheel covers are directional to fan air to the brakes for cooling The E34 17"& 18" wheels are staggered for the M cars ✌️
Those vixen are collectable! Worth money
@@Daniel-n5v5s Ay thanks I hope so! I’m sure I’ll put in more than it’s worth but I don’t mind gaha
3/8 inch is smaller than 10mm but larger than 9mm
Exactly!
Nice! Next step the Nurburgring!
