    Battery cars aren't the answer to the world's problems, they are the worst environmental product, defenders on the other hand are the most environmentally friendly vehicle ever produced because over 85% are still around and not thrown away after 9 years like modern cars. Keep saving the planet guys.

      couldn't agree more!! the funny thing with all that is if they actually wanted to go green as they say.... Henry ford engineered the model T to RUN on alcohol not gasoline you could run it on methanol /alcohol . and Rudolf diesel who invented the diesel engine it was engineered to run on peanut oil! not diesel so honestly if they really wanted to they could but we all know this whole Electric car business is all a bunch of B.S.!! they have zero intention of going green they just want to act like they are and TAX the hell out of us. and has anyone seen the Corbit mines lol Jesus the same people who are telling us we are bad for using gas vehicles are the hypocrites that are feeding the slave corbit mines the same people who need coal power plants to charge there electric cars at night. and they usually are vegetarian's who are eating there avocado's imported from all the way from chilli or South America on a diesel boat in the winter lolol oky I am done Ranting... the ostrich brigade is real.

      Hello Sir unfortunately that’s not something we make but from memory the mounts only need Togo back 30-40mm it would be a custom one off job estimate £2000 for a fully bolt in kit thanks Dave.

  • @pauligysin
    @pauligysin 11 місяців тому

    I think it's such a pity, now you have a fully galvanized chassis, grind around on it until the zinc is gone and then you weld in black unprotected metal sheets and that's where it will rust immediately, especially between the metal sheets !!! If you still want to prevent rusting, you can only treat the inside of the chassis with Mike Sanders cavity protection, because it gets into the smallest cracks and thus protects 100% against corrosion !!!

    • @wearemahker
      @wearemahker  11 місяців тому

      Unfortunately paul my customer changed his decision on what engine he wanted. So we had to modify. This is not our usual method but some times you do what the customer wants 😎

    • @pauligysin
      @pauligysin 11 місяців тому

      @@wearemahker Ok, ok but then please with the maximum of rust protection so sandblasted all sheet metal and sprayed with 2K zinc primer and of course the cavity protection with Mike Sanders because of the zinc that was burned from welding.
      Nevertheless, I would like to emphasize: this is an excellent and very precise work, the only problem is the anti-corrosion protection !!
