In this video, I will rebuild a cart that has been in the family for 70 years. I use only reclaimed and scrap wood I have laying around. I bought only screws and glue for this project! It was abandoned for 20 years? Will it run. around the yard like it used to?

Our exhaust has been rattling on startup and shut down. It turns out that my homemade exhaust hanger worked itself apart. Today I'll make a replacement!

Southern Roads will soon be hitting the water for boating season 2024! First, we will need to get our '19 Chaparral bow rider polished and waxed. I use Starkey Yacht Technologies polishes to bring out a deep shine, and then follow up with marine wax. I used a Porter Cable DA polisher on most of the hull, and a Harbor Freight SA polisher on the non-skid.

Improve your boating experience with Chap Stick!
Переглядів 587 місяців тому
Chap Stick is a boater's best friend. It is a superb dry lubricant that both lubricates and waterproofs fittings, zippers, and snaps. It won't leave an oily residue and doesn't attract dirt and grime like conventional oil. These are just a few of its many maritime uses...

Our MGB has no stopping power! Watch as I struggle to get it back on the road, then work on some other maintenance items.
Great job on the video! Beautiful cars!
Thank You!
Hope to see you in Fairhope this weekend
We can't make it this year. We'll hit Fairhope next year!
My 1977 MG Midget’s U-Joints would not tap out. The book said to tap them to one side and pull the cap off with your hand. I seriously doubt that was possible when it was new, but there was no way to do it with mine. It was the first time I had that kind of problem. I ended up taking the new U-Joints and the drive shaft to the local drive shaft specialty shop (Cutrite Machine Northlake Driveline). They pressed it to one side, then pressed just the U-Joint back to the other side without the cap. Then they wedged something into the cap that was partially out and pressed it again to that side. It took them just under 2 hours to actually change the two U-Joints.
It took me about five hours of hammering, vice gripping, heat, and kroil to work those caps off
What a fantastic event…. Thanks for including us.
Great video and wonderful cause.
Nice video, pal. Greetings from French settlement.
Thank You! My Grandmother was a Mathern from French Settlement. We are close by off 931.

@@johnnygascon3991 Sounds like a nice boat! I hope to see you out there captain!
How ofter should you change the belt? Did the old belt show any signs of cracking or being worn?
Yamaha Recommends 7 years/300 hours. The belt was in good shape but the outboard was nearly 10 years old.
Explanations are very clear and video quality as well. Thanks a lot!
I'm so glad this helped! Thank You!
Great Job! Wonderful showcase for the BMCNO British Motoring Festival in downtown Covington. Thanks!!!
Thank You!
Great video of BMCNO show with words from entrants on their cars and motorcycles.
Thank You Milton! I had so much fun learning about the cars.. and the bikes!
Excellent as always.
Thank You! It was a pleasure to be a part of the show!
Thorough and informative
Thank you Milton!
Wonder how many wreckers were traveling with them this time?
Luckily, nobody had to call the wrecker. We do have a gag prize for anyone who breaks down on a club trip though. All part of the British car charm, eh?
Had to like at 7:50.
Sweet adventure , our British club here in East central Ohio gets together for similar rides.we always find a destination that challenges our cars and our bodies. Longest trip 375 miles in one day.
Thank you! Our longest ride was from our home near Baton Rouge to the Brits on the Bay show in Pensacola, Florida. We did scenic roads that totaled up to about 325 miles one way. A great time though, to be sure. Had a few guys from Ohio show up in their MGC's, too!
Good Video, covers the proper way to do a rebuild. I would add inspect the entire length of the brake lines, a MGA has steel lines which will pit replace them with Copper Nickel. I do not know about a MGB.
I regret that I could not reuse the original master... I keep all the parts I replace, though.
Thanks, ALways a great ride.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Glad I found your channel Chris. . Because of vision problems I do not get to drive my MG very much. Thanks and looking forward to seeing more.
Thank You! You are welcome to ride with me or Michele anytime!
Loved it Chris, keep up the good work.
Thank you!
