Glad to see you back, really looking forward for this project's first start and testing!

I can’t believe I saw this video but didn’t realize it was yours and didn’t watch it. Glad to see you’re back working on the Speedster and creating videos Brake pedal looks great.

Congratulations on your graduation and new job. I would haul the Roadster and parts to Texas so you have the option to keep working on it and enjoy the more favorable weather cruising with the top off all year round and maybe even keep your You Tube family entertained as well. Either way I hope you succeed in anything you desire.

we missed ya man.

The plastic fluid reservoirs do not match the look of the vehicle, but they are an excellent material for the purposes. Great to hear from you again...

I was just thinking about you the other Day! Glad to see you are doing okay :)

Just protect it, you could definitely build something strong enough to hold up that entire car if you had to, it'll be fine. Good to see you again.

Solid no. This brake job was a textbook example of speed blindness. When the skill set and experience grows, designs become more risky. Then eventually something like this happens. Deadly brakes. Even if you shield that setup with frame rail gauge steel, it still has that faulty linkage design. As you said, never trust only welds, always have mechanical bond too. Every bit of that brake pedal linkage is relying solely on welds, and the geometry of the linkage is loading those welds hard.

Nice to have you back on the car, can't wait to see it complete...

Hi. I agree with you that the brake linkage WILL work, but I definitely would NOT have positioned it there. All you need is to go over something with little ground clearance and your brakes could be applied for you! Great build though and some very impressive work. Regards Mark in the UK

YAY! He's back and bashing metal again!

I just checked your channel the other day to see if I missed any videos. Great to see you again.

Great to have you back!

THE MESSIAH IS BACK!

Good to see you back and a nice little project on the brake cylinder. I would definitely put a shield on that linkage because if you do ground it on a speed hump or something it will jam your brakes on. I think incorporating something to keep the road dirt away from the master cylinder would be good also.

Been watching since day 1,. Really like that you are taking your time. Real attention to detail.

Glad your back! Really enjoy your creativity.

Wondered if we would see, the completion of your fantastic roadster.. Nice surprise! Subbed, and always thumbs up!

I’ve been waiting for this forever!!! Thank you for coming back! Don’t wait as long to post another.!

Outstanding! Thank you. Regards Gareth Wiltshire UK. Gratitude. Quality. Respect.

Pleasant surprise to see you and your new video

Those tabs on the bracket are a great idea. I never feel fully comfortable relying on welds alone. At least not my own! Modifying a factory brake pedal like that isn't allowed at all in New Zealand. No cutting, heating, bending,, welding, drilling, etc allowed. What you can do is make you own from mild steel as long as the main actuating part of the pedal is all one piece. So you couldn't even weld a bracket on as you did even if it was all mild steel. I had to remake the brake pedal in my car for this reason. Clutch and throttle they don't car and you can do what you like!

My god, what a good day it is to see you back! I was just thinking about you and the next day you uploaded

Good to see you back! Was missing your videos, can't wait to see it rolling

Glad you are back.

Thanks for sharing, good to see you again!

It's good to see you back at it keep up the great work

Always great to see a new video

happy to see you back

Among the few channels that get a like before the video loads. Always a pleasure to see you show off your skills.

Come back Vincent....We are more than 100k right.....Show us some love...lol

Life must have really got in the way of your channel the last couple of years. I hope you're well & coping with what ever happened. Good to see you back & even if you could manage a video once a month it would be great. Love your work & this project. Billy J.... Queensland, Australia.

Love ya man. Your vids are amazing. And yes you are very confidence inspiring. I wish you the best and cant wait to be back in the shop with you. Thank you for all the effort you put in to share your life and projects with us all.

Nicely Done. Good to see you 🙂.

Happy to see a video again!

Schools at for summer. Welcome back. Instead of band aiding the lower linkage, could you raise the pivot point along with slicing and dicing the upper pedal part to the required lengths and angles?

Welcome back !

Schools out for the summer. I look forward to watching you build. You do a very unique job. Hope you have a great summer.

Keep up the great work!

well done 👍 There is no place for a hotrod in my garage, so I built one for my living room in scale 2:3 with a Jukebox functionality 😅

SO THANKFUL to have you back!!!! I bought a 23 Ford T chassis kit this week and your videos are great help. THANKS!!!!!!!

I was watching you cut the master cylinder bracket thinking "hmm, that's a long piece, will that fit all the way into the saw?" then you cut the shot before it was done, I'm guessing because you figured out it wouldn't fit in the saw and had to decide what to do haha

Great to see you back! Your work is impeccable as always.

Love your channel! Great work!

Love your work 👍

Nice job. Was concerned about having off axis force on master cylinder push rod but that seems to be corrected by the link in the push rod.

So happy to see more of your work on that great little car. I'm having a similar brake problem on my 37 HUDSON. I like your solution

good stuff man, I like your style ..down to earth ...use. what you have...wish I could do that type of thing...limited resources in Trinidad and Tobago everything very expensive here....keep up the good work bro. (my name is Marlon George)☝️

Welcome back, happy to see progress in the car project.

I was saying to myself that it is summer vacation. We should be getting a video from micro machines soon.

As always, awesome to see a new video! Speedster is gonna be amazing when its done!

Welkom back long time no see

Nice to see a video from you! For your brake reservoirs, why not pick up four stainless freeze plugs and a piece of sheet to make a couple of matching barrels? It would be a little bit of a pain in the ass, but it might look cool if you rolled a few beads and used the same proportions as a 55 gallon oil drum. And I know you have sort of a monochromatic theme, but it's such a small detail and so tucked away, I think if you made the skeleton for the reservoirs out of brass, it would be a very very sharp look. I love that, when the nicest details are very easily missed. Like maybe you have noticed an unusually heavy door knob, how much more satisfying it is in the hand?

Great work

Perfect for the summer.

nice work

nice progress... though I'm a bit surprised how exposed you placed the master cylinder, sticking out under the car...

Excellent.

Glad to see you back. How did your school project go?

Up until now I have been impressed. I would have to completely re think this. Sorry

Hey Sir. So good to see ya once again. Great work as always. Will you be making videos this summer? And by my calculations you have about 2 years of school left, is that about right? I might come to see you graduate, well I sure would like to anyways. You take care, will look for the next video.

Like you said except for hanging low it looks good, if you could change the pivot to be higher that might be able to mount the cylinder higher

I don't think you explained why you can't have the MC in the traditional spot on the other side of the firewall. Or maybe that was in a previous vid? Is it just because you wanted the linkage at the pivot point?

👍👍👍😎😎😎

You will have problems bleeding the master being mounted sideways, the bleeder nipple port might be at the side of master cylinder bore

Hi great you are back on the car. I'm interested in the master cylinder your using, what is the bore diameter? I'm also using Lincoln brakes, on my A coupe. Keep up the good work. Byron Bassett Tasmania Australia

Have you decided what to do about the exhaust? Jaguar XK-120 mufflers give a nice refined growl.

Merci

Make sure there is no side loading on that master cylinder. I have the same from wilwood with 1 inch bore. My 1st pedal attempt had a touch too much side loading and over 3 months it wore out one side of the bore. Has a small leak even after replacing the seal kit and replacing my pedal for a wilwood pedal and mount. Anyways still holds a pedaal and the leak is minor. What pedal radio do you have now. I didnt hear you mention it. Wilwood recomends 7:1 for manual brakes.

And he lives....

If you hit a bump with that linkage, at least it will „auto-break“

It's nice to see a new video. I was beginning to wonder what had happened to you. The brakes are clearly hydraulic, which is practical, albeit somewhat anachronistic. What's going to be at the wheels? Drums salvaged from some '50s sedan? (Finned would look cool.)

Like always you addressed the same concerns I saw, gusset for the master tab and some type of "protection" for the brake linkage. Was that a sneak peak at :15 of the actual reservoirs? :)

👍🏽👍🏻🙂

From an Old race car builder, Do NOT mount your master cylinder below frame rails. Find a new way, I know you are capable of finding a way.

Have you got a link for the master cylinder you used?

I love you work, but at this rate, gasoline cars will not be allowed on the road by the time you finish.

Welcome back!
