As a time served manual machinist myself, I'm jealous of your workshop and appreciate your machine skills. Thank you two for these past 3 years since I discovered you while nearly buying a disco 3 or 4. I look forward to seeing you every Sunday so I can disappear from this world for a while. You are a brilliant couple with an amazing sense of humour .💜💜💜

@Vera_and_Christian Vera and Christian, you really don't know what you've done for me . Thank you. I'm Scottish, but was born in Wegberg as an R.A.F brat. I believe you're ex military judging by places you have lived. My UK driving licence says born in West Germany. Thank you, and I feel proud of your sons. I love mountain biking, but I have done minor bmx riding and as part of my work I have done welding fabrication and, to an extent, blacksmithing. Much respect to all of you, especially Vera the obvious glue to your lovely family and organisation.

In conversation with my father in law this afternoon! And his neighbour victor had (pre text) the v6 jag and while climbing a steep hill in Yorkshire under 2000 rpm snapped the crank shaft!The car had 50k ish miles, just out of warranty they offered a really small kind gesture to put towards repair! The car had a replacement crank shaft in a back street garage with shit all over place and a box of bits in the boot!! 😮 On a happy note I've officially entered my mud life crisis and fit a new GOLD chain to my mtb! Radical!🤙❤👊

Your policy of clean, photograph and clearly bag work every time, we had a customer turn up with a tracked WW2 vehicle he had dismantled years before , nothing photographed, nothing labelled or bagged properly, mountains of stuff in old shopping bags, broken boxes , it made the restoration challenging to say the least

My favorite KZfaq couple! Note on the winch cable binding, the “official way” is to insure that the front of the winches vehicle is exactly 90 degrees to the direction of pull, then you can use a shovel handle to push the cable during the pull left or right, as you lean on it like American “Cal Trans workers”, while you watch others do the work. It takes practice, but you can wind the cable on, to perfection. A synthetic cable will also bind if crossed on itself and crush itself if real force is used.

I love the snapping and popping noises as you lift the body, it always sounds worse than it is. It looks like such a fun process, and when its done you have so much access everything seems to be easier. Reminds me of the first time I worked on an E-type jaguar, sitting on a front wheel with a biscuit and a cup of tea as I measured the valve clearances. Happy days... Thank you, I'm always entertained, even when swinging between envy and the relief that it's not my problem. Happy Easter, sorry about your weather.

It's strange that on my 2016 LR4, the viscous coupling fan is right handed thread. Anyway, a good friend once told me: You just need to check the fan fins direction, knowing they need to pull air toward the back and that will tell you the direction the fan turns. Since we also know the fan motion is tightening the bolt, you can easily deduce the thread direction for any cars. Great episode, can't wait to watch this new series! Cheers!

I went to work wearing different shoes thirty years ago. Nobody noticed until we had a meeting just before lunch where we were sitting around in a circle and my boss said, 'Are you wearing different shoes?'. I spent my lunch hour driving home and back to change. I'd like to say I can laugh about it now, but I absolutely can't.
