@@keiths314 thank you for watching and commenting :)

@@froglover7967 so you can go with a regular headlight polish

The annual registration cost is low (around 350 shekels which is 90$), the insurance is also low, around 1000 shekels (270$~) While on regular cars its 4-5 times the price. Import tax is 117%, very high, and it's calculated on the vehicle price + shipping. The taxes on imported spare parts is also high, around 55%... I rather pay regular annual price and dont pay such high fees on spare parts from time to time.

@@DIY-Mechanic Do they still charge 55% duty on used parts?

@@Marklin15 yes why not?

Didnt knew about another grill in silver, i would check. I replaced mine with a NOS someone actually found for me in Israel. British accent is the worst. Can't under a thing😅

Thanks for the precision

@@laurentherjean9165 i gota bunch of spare parts from someone, and one of the clusters had this odometer. I guess it came off from a newer model but in any case mine doesnt work

@@DIY-Mechanic It must be from a 304 GL. When the 204 was discontinued in 1976, Peugeot introduced an entry-level 304 that was basically a 204 in a 304 body (same seats, same 1.1 engine, same dashboard). I have just found out that they had a 6-digit odometer.

@@laurentherjean9165 it could be, but i dont think it was in israel. Maybe only the odometer mechanism got replaced from 305 or even 205...

Thanks for your comment. It means a lot to me. My dad also had 404 pickup in 73. he is missing it very much. Soon i would make a video with E30 :) so stay tuned

​@@DIY-Mechanic Fantastic !

Glad you liked it!

I hope to share with you more interesting stuff. Thanks for the comment

Yep, those cars are very special and lovable Thanks for the comment

I own the same suv as well and i try to work on it myself as best as i can. I need to change my seals as well very soon...the smell of fuel is way to strong

Thanks!

@@Jeremie-zu1fd yes i will. I just made a video about it in Hebrew and want to make the same one in English. Its a sum of year and a half with this noturious car ;)

Thanks, it is very pleasent to get comments like those. Im doing ok, thank you

Hello there! Thanks!

Which model?

@@DIY-Mechanic 1972, I want to share with you my experience. I am a mechanic and I love classic cars

@@laabidimecano4990 that would be great. How can we make contact?

@@DIY-Mechanic Please check your dm

Thank you for that!

Hi it's 2501.65 the problem is that this is not a 304 or 204 gearbox, it's a 305 gearbox.. I also have a newer model (from the bb6) I would try that one as well.. i think that's the reason it's deformed.

250165 is right for the BB6, but in this case it's a BB8, the cover I showed on the video is probably the right one - 250170\71, but need to adjust right linkage to that. it would not be easy...

Its not from the peugeot. We got here the same rear lights, but somehow this car ended up with a fiat backlights... I invite you to watch some more videos on my channel about this one and the other 204 I restored. (Episode no. 5 has been uploaded right now)

All experience is from dirty hands and wondering mind ;)

זה כשהדלק היה זול יותר...

@@DIY-Mechanic כן ב2021 איך שהדלק עלה ל8 שקל לליטר מכרתי תרכב

Haha he is not mine, but I take care of this old guy

Yes. Check the full video for that matter. It is a 67 and have a 204 chasis number in the engine bay

Haha its actually a firebird... The engine is from a donor, nothing good over there. I want to disassemble the transmission, would upload the full video later in a week or two

Glad you liked it!

Thanks! I just went to the car and did that as you suggested. that was a good idea, I would show what i did on the next video. the BB6 is the right one that goes on the XL5? (I guess this engine is from a 305)

Ah yes it is not the original xl3s but an xl5 engine.. after 75 différent gearbox bb8 but if I am correct only double gearbox linkage for xl5s engine so this looks correct to me

also the xl3 wasn't original here since it's a 204 initially :) I see that the bb8 have a different cover, number 250171. the one on this cab looks from the BB6, which a rod end and not a ball insert (I hope I'm using understandable terms..)

Oh this a one of a kind rebuild! How is the engine mounted on the bottom? The interior is from a 304 but you have a gear lever at the steering wheel and not on the floor which changes the whole mechanism at the gearbox… The Bosch spark plugs are correct for XL5, you can run BP6EFS from NGK as well…

@@tiesto1102 yeah I guess that on the 90s the 305 was very common here in oppose to 204 or 304 cab which were only imported personally by a few people. I havent checked how the engine is mounted yet But the distributor is from a 504/404 which have a different advanced timing... so the spark plugs are not the only issue. For the lever - i think it is just as to replace the cover and put linkage with the correct length.

Thank you too! I just started a new project, you should check it out :)

חפש את @Knufia אם לא הכרת, זה הערוץ הראשי שלי, הוא הרבה יותר גדול...

Thank you! Will do!

Thanks :)

that's so true... the funny thing is that they care about air pollution while this car drive a couple hundreds km in a year, meanwhile there are heavy duty vehicles doing 50-100kkm passing tests everyday :)

<3

You seen nothing yet... full video coming soon... its worse than you think

more from her on the way.. :)

That's what I usually do, but that 993 was spontenous driving so I used what I got

Thanks. it's the hardest parts to find in a 50 years old car, although they were very common... none exist where I'm from :)

Hi. Wow. I see you just posted the comment now. I used liqui moly (antisieze ) copper paste and Parmatex ceramic grease for the caliper guides. For the guides a silicone grease is also suitable. Good luck

@@DIY-Mechanic Thank you!
