Sweet as!! I had a HJ ute 3 sp 202 with Sandman wheels ( same as yours ) and manifolds off a 186s. Small 2 bbl and split exhaust headers. Had a nice but still quiet note. Other than that, totally stock. I still kick myself today for selling it ( about 20 years ago ). Dont let yours go!!

Best wish...

That's sweet!! Compressed air start?

GOLLY GOSH !!!

I think i can...nope. I think i can, i think i can...nah. Go away 'n leave me alone!! Ohh allright then, lets do this thing. Seriously, what a strong, confident sound! Best soundtrack for anything really. That's proper music. Best wishes

That's great photography, oh, and the train's are great too. Dont the V12 Alcos sound good under a load like that!!!

RIP and total respect to the crew. Being a pilot, and having been involved in a light plane incident as a passenger, to see that just knots your stomach. Again RIP.

That brings back so many good memories of times past. Sort of reminicent of 'Penny Arcade' style music. Agree with the positive lyrics thing, so different to a lot of "music" today. If the religious thing does it for you, then great. Me?, I just love the upbeat melody and maybe that ever so sligh...

Beautiful sound. My first car was a 72' HQ sedan, resplendent in San Remo Gold with white roof ( SRG was better known as 'Telecom Orange' ). It was an old farm car and by the time i'd finished it had a set of original 'Sandman wheels', headers and a single 2" exhaust, springs and gas shocks. If y...

Beautiful old bird!! 0-470's or i0-470's ? There's one of these sitting in ( of all places ) an auto dismantlers yard 30 or so miles from where i live. Its minus engines, avionics, interior etc.etc. Just rotting away and looks so sad. Good to see one in the condition yours is in though. Mid or la...

I can remember as a lad my parents old EJ. It used to do everything. Run to the shops, trips, pull a caravan ( allbeit slowly ). Some old school mechs. really knew how to get them humming, although their biggest weakness was probably the 4 main bearing crank. Great to hear one run again. Oh.... 1...

Lovely Duchess!! Do i hear a sticky starter bendix on the LH Lycoming?? Also agree with other comment. Gives that 100wt. oil time to circulate. Textbook startup!! Cheers.

@kissmyarse1541 . In actual use, the light output is very close to cold white light ( about 5000 k ) with only a very slight leaning towards blue. The uploaders video would appear to accentuate the blue tint excessively. The light renders reds quite well. Cheers.

Excellent torch. I bought mine from Ledtorchshop a couple of months ago. Powerful, small size, nice weight and tough. 250-300 metres pose no problems for this torch (Tri R5 Cree version), and spill light is still pretty good.

Thankyou for a great overview of a legendary aircraft. I had the honor of having a neighbour who was a pilot of the Lanc. and flew with 12 Sqd. Wickenby in WW2. Like most all of those incredible heroes, he was somewhat reluctant to speak of his time in service. I was very lucky because he would r...

Try removing the starter and lubeing the bendix with a light machine oil ( thats the spiral splines that the starter drive mounts on ). Had the same problem with a Forrester with a dry bendix. Once lubed, it never played up again. Worth a try?! Good luck.
