Back in the workshop this week, with some help from my friends at Austin Pedal Cars, this is a fun one! www.austinpedalcars.com/

The front axle needs straightening, rust repair and a general strip down and restoration, one piece at a time we will get the austin pedal car restored and driving again!

    Sorry to veer off the pedal car AND the porsche, but your aero engine sent me down a land speed record rabbit hole, to see if liberty aero engines were used in any early land speed record attempts. They were, Babs for one, which is a great link, and one was even used in a real chitty chitty bang bang. Who knew they were even real cars, and that one had a liberty aero engine in. Thanks for all the entertainment.

    The original braze welding was very evident on those steering knuckles after they were stripped… very old school cool 😎

    Thanks Dom, I use the time your video comes out to escape the Texas heat for a bit... PS I'll be near London for a quick vacation in about 9 weeks so I hope to see some of your UK shows that I can't get here. Thanks for your weekly escape for me

    I'm unaware of the history of the Porsche as classic car to be reborn by your goodself but boy do I wish it was Jaguar 😉 but that's just me 🤷‍♀️. I always enjoy the Sunday evening catch with you Dom. Love the videos, keep 'em coming.

  • Hi Dom, another fascinating video… inspired by your videos and Tools book, I spent the weekend refurbing a whole batch of rusty old tools…
  • We look forward to your videos and always enjoy them. Thanks so much.

    Always drill a hole at the end of a crack before welding it up!!

    Great stuff, I really enjoy these videos even though I work in my own workshop all day doing similar projects.
