Episode 05 TVR 2500M Bonnet Update
Some work has been done on the TVR hood. The steel frame has been removed. The lights and electrical are out. The awful chicken wire grill/screen is ground out. This video is an evaluation of the work still needed to be done. The next video will be the repair of the latching mechanism.

Yes, a nothing video I know, but it technically is my first TVR upgrade. I promise future videos to have more DIY content. Please stick with me. Those center caps are off and make the stickers look off on video but, not bad in person.

Competed in my 15th heavy games at the 2024 San Diego Highland Games. My competition was 5 other great guys in the 50-59 Masters Category. I had three PRs for the day. Took 4th overall. I had great support from my brother out from FL, Asako down from Orange County, and Nancy & Dad up from Santee. All out, braving the heat to watch me throw heavy shit! Thank you!
TVR 2500M Arrives Orange County California
Переглядів 365Місяць тому
This video is an overview of my new 1974 TVR 2500M project car. I bought the car sight unseen from Michigan. This video shows the first arrival with a quick driving test and a walkaround. My intention is to keep the car drivable as much as possible as I tackle bite size projects to restore the vehicle. Pre 80's TVRs, or any TVRs are pretty rare on the west coast. I am hoping to take it to car s...

2015 Ford Transit High Roof This video documents the creation of a plug using foam core sheet and autobody supplies. From the plug a fiberglass female mold was made. Then finally a fiberglass trim piece was formed and then installed after covering with headliner material. The project took approximately 30 hours to complete and required about $300 dollars in materials.
Class C RV Cab Leak
Переглядів 2113 місяці тому
This video documents a Class C RV leak repair between the factory Ford cab and the RV conversion upper bunk. I used a custom designed reinforcement plate to help straighten the buckled raw edge of the Ford cab sheet metal. It also helped distribute the load from something like three times the number of attachment screws. The backing plate was designed using SolidWorks with the dxf. file sent to...

I have watched several videos showing how to replace RV Fabric. They all said that it was a two, or three person job. My video shows how I did it all by myself.

Good day with friends. No break downs requiring towing. Cooling issues not solved but better. Climbed some hills, up is good, down oil moves to the front of the oil pan and loss of oil pressure exists. Guess I need to redesign the modified oil pan and add some additional volume and baffles. Damn I hate to have to pull the engine again. Over all good day and had some fun.

Thank you Erick.
You are doing great! Nice clean up.
Thank you David. I am very excited with how the first repair is going. I think that video may be coming out on the 9th. Trying to complete the work. I used a 3D printed mold to help with the complex fiberglass shape.
It already looks way better!!! Nice!
Thanks Jas.
Nice tip on applying the sticker. Thanks.
Looks challenging. However, strength, determination and persistent rule the day...easy job for you!
@@JohnCEMCO Thanks John. 😉
Nice work amigo!

Brilliant 👏 congratulations, beautiful motor. I've got a 3000M with similar issues! For the horns, highly recommended rewiring with a relay in the system then the horn push on the steering wheel can be to switch the negative/earth. Just done mine this last weekend.
Thank you Pete. The wiring of the horn is a bit on hold. I just placed an order with Advance Auto-Wire for an updated modern wiring upgraded harness (6 relays) based on a 1973-1976 TR6. I can't wait to start ripping out and replacing. As far as the wiring goes, I have managed to get the fuel gauge working (replaced sending unit) and will soon be converting the Tach from RVI to RVC using a Spiyda Conversion. I will probably do a video on that. Thanks for the compliment and comment. Good luck with the 3000M
@@DEMOGarage I really need to replace the entire harness for mine and most of the wires are suffering serious green cancer (copper corrosion) but a new harness is out of my price range at the moment. Are you on the 3000M &2500M Facebook group?
@@The_Cotswold_Cyclist Yes I am. I am also on the Classic TVR (Pre-1980s) group.👍
@@DEMOGarageso am I, both very useful pages with very helpful followers.
You break Asako, we break you...
I wouldn’t dream of it. I’ll be on my best behavior. 😉
That looks kinda scarey to me not really having too much fiberglass experience…it definitely needs to be done though! I believe I need an Asako in my life to assist me as well 😉
@@cheftush Thanks David and thank you Asako. She makes everything better. youtube.com/@asakostudio?si=1hxtZvq5ugI82nxG youtube.com/@asakoscaliforniadream3226?si=HARdCCqRMcKVuRTF
Great work!!! This will give me an idea of my cab over cab ever leaks.
Awesome. I made the video to try and give back to community. I know I benefit a lot from UA-cam. Every time I don't know how to do something that is where I go first. Good Luck!
Great car, who did you use for vehicle transport? I can barely make it out on the rear window, is it RAMCARCO? Thanks, I'm having a TVR 2500M shipped to SoCal from Michigan as well and I need a transport company.
Thanks EPRSPLIT. I dealt with J&S Transportation who farmed it out to the company that did the work. The driver was nice, though didn't speak a lick of English. He brought it to me FAST, just a few days. I was surprised. I'll check my still photos and additional video clips but I'm not sure I have the info your looking for. I'll get back to you if I have it. Good luck with the 2500M!
@@EPRSPLIT Looks like BAMCARCO but as I said in my earlier reply I didn’t contract with them. Good Luck. I would like to hear about your car.
It’s the little things that can make a big difference
LOL. Kind of you to comment.
Impressive!
Thank you Jennn 😊.

At first I thought the gas tank was the exhaust….i thought it looked a little large 😉
@@cheftush I will have to measure it and figure out how many gallons it holds. I don’t know if you can tell but I try to use your video shooting style. In the upcoming videos where I am working on it, it might seem more familiar. After watching 300+ of your vids I see the benefit in the ease of editing. I just watched your latest, those Webers sound awesome!
Fantastic. It should be absolutely fun to drive. A mention: I finally see someone driving barefoot: these historic cars really need to "be felt" in the true sense of the word. So barefoot you get a perfect feel for the car.
LOL I didn’t realize my bare feet were visible. Most of my shoes are too big for the tightness of the pedals. Thanks for the comment.
Awesome! I love it. What a great project. I think it would look great in its original colour. Shame about the sunroof! I’m looking forward to regular updates.
Thank you David. Very kind of you to leave a comment. I think it might be my first. 😊
Thanks Brien. I didn't know that anyone even looked at these few videos I've posted.
very nice . love the theme music .
