    Today on The Skid Factory, AL and Woody continue work on Ted Bullpitt with some help from Budget Thor. The Body mounts are replaced with some new items supplied by Resto Country along with fitting the wiring loom so that we can hit the key to test the starter motor and get some oil circulating throughout the engine!
    Don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell for Weekly episodes.
    Huge thanks to all of the Companies that have supplied parts for this build!

    Wanted to say thanks to you guys, been working on an old jag I bought that hadn't been driven in 20 years that after 18 months of work, on and off, I got to drive for the first time today. I wanted to say thanks because watching your videos helped me stay motivated when the road running seemed a little too long. Best part I went to register it today and the office was on Gold Coast road. Cheers from the states!

      Hello Mike,
      I too have a Jaguar that I intend to restore and it’s fantastic you’ve got hours on the road and are using it. Well done. Not made much progress on my car as other projects and maintenance of them has got in the way. It will be happening though. I bought the car in 2000... have done less than 4000 miles in it since then. That wasn’t the intention. Will be YouTubing the work I do to the car.

    4:00 I used to use them as dog food bowls. I once had about 50 different hubcaps from different cars, ranging from ones from an FX, old Ford dome-type hub caps, some from the EH era, Dodge, Cadillac etc. I'd buy them from the wreckers for about 50 cents up to 2 dollars back in the early 90s. Kawana Wreckers up in Rockhampton had pallet bins full of them. I polished a lot of them and had them hanging around my bar under the house.
