Zhongshan Classic Car Museum in China
I finally got the chance to pop around to the city of Zhongshan, China to check out the only classic car museum in the Guangdong province. Well worth the trip.

Strange things about driving in China (Vol. 1)
Переглядів 6838 місяців тому
Coming from a kiwi perspective, here are a few things I was able to capture on my action camera taped to my hat that I thought were quite strange while driving in rush hour traffic this evening in Huizhou, China. Most of these actions would otherwise be totally unacceptable in New Zealand, possibly result in violent encounters but however totally acceptable or no ones cares here in China. More ...

Flee market + motor coach fail! (China EP.11)

Visiting Jiangmen to see my Maternal Grandparents, but I chose the worst time possible. The day before Mid-Autumn festival and the days leading up to national day. Where everyone is going on holiday and the traffic on the roads are the worst in the whole year. (Legit around the clock). Went to see a flee market in Jiangmen city, very cool stuff there. Very neat. Went to some other bits and bobs...
Huizhou CBD + Photography Fail (China EP.10)

Wandering around Huizhou CBD on a photography trip however the weather is unbearably hot. The trip was cut short. I decided to wander to some other places in Huizhou before ending the video with some leftover footage that was for another video which never came to be. On the way I share a bit of info.
Being VERY nosy in car showrooms... (China EP.9)
Переглядів 32810 місяців тому
This wasn't supposed to be a video, but nothing exciting has been happening lately. So I pieced together random footage I had of myself and Dad visiting various car showrooms in Huizhou, China. We were just being nosy and wanted to see what cars were for sale here.
My Morris Minor Story
Переглядів 1,5 тис.10 місяців тому
Since I'm in China right now, not in New Zealand. I can't actually make any Morris Minor videos, I'd figure I'd collate together a video, and kind of tell my story behind my Morris Minor and a few adventures I've been on with it. Although I've only owned it for 2 and a half years or so. A Morris Minor appreciation video if you will?
Wandering Around in Huidong (China EP 8)
Переглядів 3710 місяців тому
Aunty's last day at work before retirement so I thought I would come along to her workplace (which is also the place where I was born), had a look around the town and killed some time. Not much to see but I thought I'd film a few bits.
Junked "Jialing" motorcycle repair attempt. (China EP.7)
Переглядів 22510 місяців тому
Being the stubborn fool I am, I went back to that second hand motorcycle dealer I encountered out in the outskirts of town seen in the last video. I asked if I could attempt to repair that write off ancient "Jialing" 70cc motorcycle. It's a cool looking bike but not very good quality or reliable anymore. Had an unexpected event happen, was fun either way!
Second Hand Motorcycle Dealer in China! (China EP.6)
Переглядів 8810 місяців тому
I asked to ride the worst motorcycle they had at this second hand motorcycle dealer I found on the outskirts of town in Huizhou. I was curious and bored. Turns out, their $100 motorcycle which they offered to sell to me wasn't very good! But it was fun, almost a proper classic. They were very nice people, we had a decent chat!
Pinghai Village - a trip down memory lane. (China EP.5)

Travelling to Pinghai Village and the port of Pinghai with Dad for a trip down memory lane, not only for him but me too. That place holds a lot of family significance to us. I briefly go over it in the video. Dad shares a bit of info. I may make another video about it soon, we ran out of time and fuel. Also a bit of footage travelling on a Chinese motorway with my 2 cents.

Stowing Morris Minor Away + Packing Up (Old Footage)

Strange Air Conditioner Installs In China (China EP.3)
Переглядів 25311 місяців тому
It seems the standards for installing air conditioning units here in China are fairly distant (not in a good way) from the standards overseas which I'm used to seeing. Most of them are installed in a rather ugly fashion and can be quite funny, others pose a bit of a safety risk. Overall, a lot of them are done to a poor standard which can be made fun of.

Getting lost in various places, having general language issues etc. I narrate and give my 2 cents on what I've found here, after temporarily staying in Guangzhou for a week. There is too much to cover, the city is massive and far beyond me.

      Hi there, I ended up replacing it with a modern solid state diaphragm pump - a direct replacement for the original SU pump. It was $100 well spent. Someone had put the wrong type of pump in my morris before me, the fuel pressure was too high for the carb and would overflow in traffic. Cheers

    The easiest way to put the centrifugal weights is ,put the weights on the distributor cam , then turn distributor upside down and place cam onto spindle . That’s how I taught hundreds of students in my Technical College motor vehicle classes , City & Guilds courses. It saves trying to get the pegs on the cam to line up with the holes in the weights. Give it a try ,hope it helps.

    I'm not sure "In fourth by 35mph" is what I'd call really pushing it. Hell, in third by then would be barely nudging it. Brake judder could be ovalled drums, wheel shudder might be tyres need balancing.

      By no means was I pushing it, it had more to give but I didn't have the balls! I've since replaced all the bushes in the suspension and the juddering has stopped but thank you for the info. Cheers! :-)

    Looks like you did a really good job , well done . Im restoring an old ish Triumph Dolomite and intend to paint it myself when the welding is all finished. At the moment I plan to use small rollers to paint most of it. And see how it goes. If it looks rubbish i may end up spraying it later on.

    • @KingTriangleCat
      @KingTriangleCat 7 місяців тому

      I don't recommend using rollers as it causes more trouble and headache later if you wanna strip it all off to spray it. Spraying gives significantly consistent and cleaner results, not the mention it's far easier. Best of luck with your restoration! Cheers!
