    The ranger is rapidly becoming a real favorite to me. The fact that it was your Grandma's is one of the things I love about it. As is the case with all the work you do, it's going to be better than new. Thanks Sarah.

    "Mind your p's and q's comes from the printing trade. Typesetters had a large tray of cast lead type to set up printing, and the lead is reversed from the image it will print. So p and q are easily confused, especially if an apprentice had mixed up sorting the type. If you've never seen an original Linotype type casting machine, or seen hot lead type cast, you'd find it fascinating. Especially the pots of molten lead, which look dangerously like pots of clear cool water.

      As a 17 year old I worked for the Wall Street Journal Midwest Edition office in Chicago. Most fascinating watching the typesetters operating that Line-O-Type machine with that big ingot of lead hanging and being melted into the machine. Good times. I love that Ranger already. Subscribed

      I was under the impression it came from somewhere different. I was told that it meant mind your Pints and Quarts (in a pub setting) meaning to behave while drinking.

    • @liquidrepublic
      @liquidrepublic 2 роки тому +11

      Also, mind your P's and Q's was use aboard ships in reference to a sailor's allotment (pints and quarts) of ale.

      Your p’s and q’s explanation is correct to the best of my knowledge. There were contrary ideas advanced on this but I’ve been around both Linotype machines and metal type. FYI Linotype metal is a lead alloy that’s somewhat harder than lead. 👍🏽

    I was taught mind your p’s and q’s was an old Navy term, barkeeps would mark a p or q for pints or quarts while the ship was in port and the Sailors would have to square up before leaving.

    The Ranger Things pun was very funny, cleverly referring to the fantastic show, "Stranger Things". It becomes even funnier when you realize that Sarah spent some of the time of this video "Upside Down", checking part and bolt placement on the Ranger. As they said on "Jurassic Park", "clever girl". Well done, Sarah!

    I was a car handler at Jim Clicks back when those Rangers were new. That color seemed to stand out on those and the similarly colored Mustangs. The inside of yours is a total time warp.

    The Izuzu Impulse was available in Canada. I loved them when I was younger. Forgot all about them even having existed. Glad to see all the progress on the Ranger. Hope you can get the shock situation sorted easily.

    • @herbkilohertz
      @herbkilohertz 2 роки тому

      The 2nd generation Isuzu Impulse was sold in the states, as well. The first-gen Impulse was a way better-looking car, with bodywork by Giugiaro (coincidentally, also the stylist for Sarah's '83 Audi) as a second-gen VW Scirocco design proposal, though it was mostly Chevette, underneath. If you can find a good example of either generation, you have a great shot at a RADwood trophy.

    I got a bone to pick with you. I just remembered that you have an Amazon store link I used it months ago and completely forgot since. Sorry, I won't say how much I have ordered during that period of time.. To the point... I just created a link on my bookmarks bar to your store and who pops up with a link to a new episode? Letting you know how much some have you living in their heads rent free.
    The reason I saw your notice is do to an Amazon email to inform me that the remainder of my last order had just landed on my front porch. The bone is... occasionally, every once in a while, from time to time, every so often, just remind folks that your Amazon stor has a link in the discription so stroke victims like me won't forget.
    Amazing video production as ever... can't say that enough. That assembly content is pure ASMR gold.

    This has been another great video, Sarah. Well done, and the Ranger frame looks great and the truck is going to look super nice when you get done . Your grandmother will be up there looking down smiling and saying that's my Sarah, go girl . I have to say it again, your an amazing woman, Sarah . I love how that you put so much detail into every thing that you work on and I have to say that I am a lot like that myself . If it's worth doing, then it's worth doing right and to the best of my ability . So I will see you later and always enjoy doing, doing what your doing, just being Sarah . Best wishes with the Ranger, till you get truck rebuild finished, and you can stand back, look at it and smile and be proud of what that you have just accomplished and dedicate it to your grandmother .
    As always, Jeffrey !!!
