It's been so long since I last posted I can't find when it was, but I wanted to let you know about my series on classic cars. It's been over a year in planning but I knew I couldn't restore my RR without recording the project for posterity. Things kind of snowballed. A second Range Rover got in the way and about 6 months ago I dropped everything to concentrate fully on the project. These are the links to the first two episodes:

Episode 01. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ta7Yk8cW-TA)

Episode 02. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1cUHpJXbHo)

I hope you like it and that I'm posting in an appropriate place.

best wishes, happy trails,

George

PS: my D2 auto in a few shots is originally Aussie, has LRA tanks, OME +2 HD suspension and red dust under the carpets if that rings a bell for anyone?

You have that certain sickness that is in all of us! Actually there are a few kinds of sickness: Landy addiction and Project addiction!! Lol

I've never seen time lapse removal of parts like that before.... Very interesting. To keep it interesting like this, people don't see the sheer countless hours and frustrations as you screen abuse at it :) ...

After watching those videos, it is plainly obvious to me .... You also need to add a Citroen DS to your collection ... Your workshop floors just look wrong without hydraulic fluid leaked all over them!

Weird coincidence you should say that Shane. I've been following a crowd called Fokker Citroen Specialist on Instagram and they find the most artful photographs of the DS. Over the months they have really made me long for one. I have a pal has been a long time DS owner and at one point he had a donor car. I've been meaning to contact him to see whether I couldn't try and rescue it, if it still exists.

Love the concept and the show! Also liked and subscribed.

I can relate too - having a few projects on the go of varying makes/models. My partners old man has a Series 2 Kombi Camper that he is slowly restoring.. Hopefully one day I'll get my hands on it [biggrin]

It's been a while! Just wanted to say I think I'v finally broken the back of the project on the RRC and it's a great feeling! Sixteen episodes now and all the best content is RR related of course. Hope it's of help to someone here.

PS: Dan, did you pinch your dad's camper yet?

Been watching every episode! Great that you have the rear crossmemeber back in the Rangie!

The fibreglass Tuit was great too, looking forward to part 2 of that. 👍

For those that haven’t seen this yet, go check it out - it’s the best car show I’ve seen in a long time and it should have more viewers! George does a great job and the stop motion, editing and production is outstanding!
