VW Sterling Kit Car. Will it Run? part 2
Переглядів 1,1 тис.3 місяці тому
Part 2 will show the differences in 6v, 12v starters and what a self supporting starter looks like. Also how to static time the motor using a test light. Finally listen to it run. The reason it was turning over so slow was because, I notice that the transmission could possibly be a 6 volt tranny, that had a 12v motor in it, I was right, they clearanced the bellhousing for 12v, but never changed...
VW Sterling Kit Car, Will it run? part 1
Переглядів 9 тис.3 місяці тому
They dropped Sterling off and asked if I could get it running for them. Looks like they installed the motor many, many years ago, and tried to get it running, from what it took me to get it running I believe they were unsuccessful. The ignition timing was way off, spark plug wires crossed, but the real head scratcher was why it turned over so slow, like the batteries were dead, after going thru...

I want this car so bad!!
WOW LISTEN TO THAT BABY PURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR LOVE IT
FYI - VEVOR makes a 12v reversible hydraulic pump that has its own reservoir and is less expensive than the Corvette pump if you don’t mind it not being original. From E-Bay: VEVOR Hydraulic Pump 8 Quart Double Acting Dump Trailer Pump Power Unit DC 12V
I did find a 12v unit on Ebay that used the same motor and was very reasonable.
Do you have the lower rear body section for this car?
Yes, once the motor and wiring is taken care of, we will install it.
Theses were sold in Australia under the Purvis Eureka name.
melbourne manufactories design and made by purvis
That’s cool
I had a Sterling many years ago, was modified with a V8. Would love to have that car back.
Funny
I've lost arm hair grinding out 6volt transmission bell housings when the dust would flash, should have worn long sleeves. We had a sterling come through the shop i was working at in the 80's, probably the pinnacle of kit cars, the only problem was when it was finished, it was a still a kit car.
I was boring out a VW case for bigger cylinders, there must of been some impurities in the case that caused a spark and the filing started on fire.
First of all, mine has a valve inside the car that allows the hydraulic fluid to flow from the top to the bottom of the cylinders so you can simply lift the top off of you if you lose power, the other thing I noticed is you have the original exhaust on your car? That is something I almost never see, hold onto that.
The valve is a good ideal, I'm going to have to add one.
I would remove the canopy. Would not want to get stuck in it. Use it as a cool dune buggy
Is it a Nova?!
When you said Nova, I was thinking Chevy Nova, but I ques because of that they had to name it Sterlin.
Why even bother starting it? You can simply tow it to the scrap yard 😂
Fun. Is that a manx? Where is this?
How does that work?
It's like pulling the rope to start a lawn mower or crank starting a old tractor.
Nice car you got there bucko 😊👏
Good of all of you to get it out before a tree falls on top of it.
Did a good job with the dig...just a little concerned about force opening the doors. I feel it could be a little risky of buckling or tweaking the body especially being a convertible.
We would pull the bumper, 4 bolts and its a straight shot out. I had 5 split windows.
Gotta tell yah...these guys impress me EVERY time 😁👍
GOOD work!!! Thanks for taking us along with you 👍
These racers sure have some skills...and GUTS!!!
where are you at
What a fun ride !
That was really clever! you can tug with all the force necessary without straining the frame of the car, good job!
Herbi super beyka
Lol i think a bucket would be more useful
Nice video with just one thing : please don't move so much when recording
Brilliant video, keep these coming -we appreciate them
Great rescue 😎🤙👍
Kom on boys…..Nice work….iam watching from Amsterdam…

I think a mattock may have helped you break into that tough soil a little better than the square shovel. That is hard work, but worthwhile. An oldie but a goodie.
The world denied a future fossil
Hail!
😳
Why cannot you bring a heavey tow truck or tractor to pull this small car out of the jungle area.
I have noticed that one young man is not helping properly but one old man was who took real trouble and struggle to pull out the car from the hard part of the earth.
To be fair, if you're talking about the young man with the brown and white hat, he was not part of the team. He just stopped by to see what we were up to and did occasionally lend a helping hand. Which I did appreciate.
before digging you must clean the car and cut all side trees and pull out the grasses..And also you should bring 2 or 3 people to assist you in this hard car pulling work
