Good Old Holden 1 Tonner.
They Never seem to die.
Good to see a Love Affair still alive for these now rare cars.
Everyone seems to love a One Tonner
I like, Had a yellow one long time back. I shall keep watching thank you and stay safe.
Thanks, will do!
Sam, absolutely one of the best builds currently on UA-cam 👍🏻
Thanks a lot Mate. It kinda got a bit out of control but will be worth it.
Sounds awesome Sam, as you say, its not over the top. Another great episode👍👍
Thanks Mate Appreciate it
You are a dead set inspiration Sam! I am going to dust off my 12 year old HQ tonner project and hook in. I look forward to seeing yours on the road. Have a good one.
Thanks Mate. Glad to give you some inspo to get yours done. Good luck with it Mate

Bloody magic mate!! Sounds awesome.

How quick did that turn over 💪 Coming along nicely. Bet you're getting antsy to get it on the road! Also sounds tuff 💪💪 Like you said it's not obnoxiously loud, but sounds really serious 👍👍. Great job and even better channel.
Thanks heaps Mate. Glad you enjoy the channel. I cant wait to take it for a drive.

Thanks Sime. On the home stretch
Awesome work mate
Thank you! Cheers!
Just beautiful cant wait to see it sideways in second 👍
Thanks Mate. I think I will cruise it for a bit and get used to it. Im going to be too afraid to crash it after all this work.
Looks excellent mate, can’t wait to see it finished
Thanks Mate. Super excited to get it finished to take it for a drive
Awesome job mate.
You have inspired me to finally do 1.
Looking forward to getting a shirt ✌🏽
Also sounds great 👍
Glad to give you some inspo. You looking at doing a Tonner? If so Tonners are just the ultimate tough Holden if done right in my opinion.
Hi.mate.
I had the greatest laugh, lol, at your reaction to how eastbound car started. It was so in expected for you, you like had a little fright jump, lol, awesome.
Mate it sound awesome all though better in real.life, for sure.
Hint, if your worried about hardened seal, valve stem etc the oil additive with a chemical to re swell the seals does not hurt at all.
Your doing well.and all's looking and coming together well.
Keep it up
Sorry how easy your car started
Hahah yeah it fired up so easy I was really not expecting it thats for sure. I thought it was going to need to crank for a while. Anyway was happy with that result. Def sounds better in real life. Thanks also for the comments :)
Sounds awesome mate, love the vids you’ve inspired me to start my tonner keep up the good work shanke👍🏻🍻🍻
Glad the videos giving you some inspo. Good luck with the Tonner
Nice one Sam. I will have a similar combo in my HJ Sandman ute :) watching your build is driving me nuts and making me want mine sooo much faster haha. I can't wait to see the bodywork start going back on ;)
Ok great Mate. You built a 355 aswell? The bodywork will start to go back on soon. Still need to pick a color.
@@ShenkeGarage Funny story that one.
I wasn't going to but I managed to pick up a set of plates with 355 in it so I guess I "have" too haha but I'm going supercharged as well now :)
After seeing soooooo many reverse cowl scoops I am going to stick with a clean stock bonnet :)
Sounds mint bro, keep up the good work!
Thanks Matey.
Good job Sam, things are moving forward mate 👍🏻 Exhaust sounds good mate 👍🏻
Thanks there Big Al. Home stretch
LALA engine service’s 😂😂👌🏻🏁
Haha yep. Onto it :)
Sounds Great
Thanks Mate
Getting there mate.
On the home stretch I feel.
i am very interested on the colour of the cab. cant wait to find out
I am still deciding this. It has to be the perfect colour. Might do a vote
Hello hello from Newcastle
Hello there!
Sweet noise mate
Thanks 👍
Very nice build. Cannot beat a Holden 355. I love my 308 Sandman HQ ute with the sound of side pipes. Really impressed with the level of detail, engineering and paint. Few questions; what brake system do you have, what rear suspension has replaced the leafs, did you source a IFS from Castlemaine including rack & pinion steer? I am just getting mine ready for a Holley Sniper setup which I think would go well on yours. Mine doesn't have VN heads but big valve Red Heads with Edelbrock dual plane that I milled the divider. I believe you have a brilliant Torque Power airgap Manifold. And after 11 years wow.
Thanks Mate.
The Brake system is a Wilwood 320 kit on the front and Wilwood kit on the rear. The kits are from Castlemaine rod shop.
The suspension on the rear is a 4 link kit from Mcdonalds brothers racing
The rack and pinion was from Mcdonalds Brothers racing
The tubular control arms are from Castlemaine rod shop.
Both good company's and good products
Maybe in the future I may look at the Holley sniper setup but I will just enjoy it with the carby for the time being.
Yes I have the TP air gap manifold. I bought this 12 years ago. Its a nice manifold and complements the combo.
The whole build is on my channel from very start to where it is now and all the videos are in depth on fitting 4 link, brakes, paint, rust repairs etc.
Awesome video today thanks.👌
No problem 👍
Love it yewwww
Thanks Haha
Sounds mint. Building a 355 to go in my hz
Thankyou and good luck with your build. What power you chasing?
@@ShenkeGarage not quite familiar with how much you can get out of it. Like to keep it out school.
You can keep it old school and get as much power from an injected system. Carby is just not as efficient. Mine made approx 450 HP which was purposely built for a nice reliable street/strip engine.
hope its a roller camshaft not flat tappet
😮
Sounds great mate.
Many thanks!
Just a quick question, why are you using 20w60 in this and not something like 15w40? Just curious
That is what the Engine builder recommended to use as oil
@@ShenkeGarage ah, fair enough
What plugs you using on this..? I’ve got a new 355 build that’s about to fire up.
Hey Mate. Not too sure sorry. Engine was built like 10 years ago
I’m building a 318 stroke out of my 253 out of my tonner for my p plates
Nice mate. What heads you going with?
Vid doesn't do the sound justice mate. I've just fresh started a 253 in my early 70s patrol. Go the mighty thong!
You are right mate. Sounds a lot better in real life for sure.
sounds awsome. what are those rear muffler?
Hey Mate those are from Reaper Engineering
@@ShenkeGarage thanks heaps. i will look into those.
Hi mate,
Your tonner sounds great, Do you have the specs of the exhaust. I am in the process of putting an exhaust on line ATM.
Hey Mate it's a twin 2.5 inch system with x pipe. Demon flow muffler and resonators and all parts supplied by reaper engineering. Was custom made so lengths were cut on the fly.
@@ShenkeGarage thanks mate appreciate it
What extractors do you have
Hey Mate. They are di fillipo 4 into 1 to suit VN heads
@@ShenkeGarage Okay mate thank you been watching the build and progress very informative coming along quite nicely
I could feel your nerves bro rivetting shyte.....!!!!!!¡!!¡?!¡!!
Ha yeah I was nervous after it sitting around for so long. It done good.
Solid cam?
Hydraulic actually 236/236
@@ShenkeGarage like a H304, nothing crazy.
@@ShenkeGarage blower friendly? Harrop are now making a FDFI Supercharger for Holden efi motors.
Check out The Skid Factory.on UA-cam.
No its not anything super crazy but a good combo for street and cruising.
Ok will have a look. Not sure if I would go blower on this thing. Im thinking my next build will be something with a blown or turbo engine.
