i believe its complete and he is most likely selling i think from memory

@trevorsmith9251 thank you for your comment and I really hope you are able to get back on the tools and to your passion 💪, best of luck! 🍻

@peterkennett9375 hey mate! Yeah I tried some copper coat type of stuff one time, but not proper weld through primer yet, does super cheap auto sell it??

@peterkennett9375 hey Peter, thanks for that 🍻. For what kind of purpose would I use it on? Maybe for dash repairs and plastic parts like bumpers? That would be handy

@@TwistedMetalCustoms yer it can be used on any plastic i have used it on tractor gyards, dashes,mudguards even used it on a radiator repair short term. It's a two pack mix and takes about 5 to 10 minutes to go off you can use it on air boxes and heater box

@peterkennett9375 oh yeah nice I'll have to get some!

@vcval yeah mate pretty much hit the nail on the head there! Thanks for watching and understanding, and I appreciate your opinion. I agree 100%, what about my 25 cars sitting out to "rot"? 🍻 👏 haha

@TwistedMetalCustoms i just had a quick look online for sheds . Pricing is a national secret ... if you have the space, sacrificing a couple to pay for basic rural shed no frills might be the go ? Opinions are like a$$holes. everyone has one

@vcval yeah I think he is only keeping 6 if them in total, so once he gets the property and shed built they all can fit in the shed hopefully 👍, sheds are expensive... just ask me! Hahaha

@TwistedMetalCustoms just seen on Facebook looks great , I hope to have a house and shed started this year so I can start restoring the VG mexicana wannabe

@peterkennett9375 exactly mate, most of the negative stuff doesn't even make sense, or if they watched it it would explain it all. End of the day, HE is the one that bought the cars, he can do what he like. To sad for them, they can have all the hissie fits they want, won't change the fact that he owns them and not them

@4TheMotorist depends, if there is a massive load of ridiculous comments made by people judging without understanding the story the yeah. I can do that, because it's my channel 👌

@@TwistedMetalCustoms Yep. You can throw all the tantrums you like. Your product was glaringly riddled with faults. They were pointed out by enthusiasts who took the time to educate you. Instead of learning properly, you erased ALL the sound advice along with the rubbish & then tried to hide the stupidest of your mistakes. Try to make sense in the first place. TH-cam isn't just for fools, but I'm sure you can fix that.

@johnbrooks9523 lol, it sounds like you are the one throwing a tantrum pal, what "product" was riddled with flaws? There was only 2 mistakes made with information which we corrected in the last video. What "sound" advice would you be referring to? Happy for you to move on to another channel mate, I won't miss you here 👋

@@TwistedMetalCustoms They were not ridiculous comments, it was constructive criticism. Just remember, "you're the one who put it out there"!! If you dont like it, dont post video's. Another commenter has pointed the obvious out to you saying that your other video had other car enthusiasts pointing out their opinions and what not and just because you don't like that, you turn it off. Simple simple. I have experience in building Falcons so i believe that gives me the right to comment on such a cause. And i mean with no disrespect to either of you, You do what you want, what ever helps you sleep at night.

@4TheMotorist but that's the thing, none of them were constructive at all, saying they never will get done, or that he is wasting the cars etc etc isn't constructive at all.. there is a big difference between putting a man down and calling him all sorts of names because he hasn't got a full restored car collection compared to constructive criticism on how he can get them done, or suggestions on the easiest way to get the part fixed for eg.. so yeah I turned them off because they weren't useful. YES there were some comments that were ok and more on the supportive side, but over 100 of them were not. mainly that there was no reason for why they were in the condition (my fault) hence why we explained in the 2nd video. I guess everyone that was negative will just have to wait and see, maybe I'll do a follow up video in a year and see what has/or hasnt been done on them. I guess we will have to wait and see

Thanks heaps mate, glad you are enjoying the video! I love the sound of the 302 too! Cheers 🍻

@rhettcorbett3346 there was only 2 cars that this happened to, #1 & #2, this is the 2nd one that they sent for testing, no one knows where #1 is or what happened to it. Mouse could tell you more, I am pretty sure xbs weren't producing yet that's why they used a XA, the September date on the plate is a giveaway

So it still has the XA Compliance Plate on it ? Even though it was rebadged as a XB GT. Any updates on the build process of the XA / XB GT ? I reckon it should be built back to a XA GT Hardtop as it is only a pretend XB.

@@rhettcorbett3346 The first xbgt was built in July 73 , it was the yellow car that was used in the advertisement broucher driving through the creek. Mine which is the 2nd xbgt, was used as a test car. Both of these cars were originally XAGT’s that both went down the production line as XAGT’s, then were shipped over to Ford Special Vehicles (3999) . They were then changed to xbgt spec., panels ect.. I’m unsure about the 1st xbgt ( yellow car) as nobody knows where it is. I have been personally trying to find it since 1998. My car was built in sep ‘73 and has xbgt on the compliance plate. It was originally wild violet xagt, change to red pepper xbgt. The red was painted directly over the wild violet. I’m guessing that the reason for this is that wild violet was not optioned on xb’s. Hope this helps, mouse

Something I just remembered … is that when you look at the photos back in the day, the yellow car and of mine, the ‘gt351’ sticker on the front guard was placed higher than the final position, also they had the xagt ‘351 GT’ badge on the rear.

Thnx. You learn something every day. Never knew 1st XB GT was a XA as well. Did it have Engine/ Trans etc changed got XB Specs as well ? Was that the OG colour of the 1st Yellow XA/XB ? To bad ya can't rebuild it back 1/2 XA 1/2 XB. Has the rebuild started ?

Thanks heaps mate, appreciate the support! 🍻

@apsallpartsolutions7312 haha yes thank you, I realized after I added the thumbnail, then I was like stuff it 😄, but thanks you are the first to point it out , I'm sure others have spotted it 😓

@@TwistedMetalCustoms i just let it glide as it didn't really matter, we got the gist of what you meant.

Thanks heaps mate! 🍻

@@ecolift5919 🤣🤣😉

@sneekerflogger so it seems in fact Mouse story of owning Craig Williams car isn't bullshit like you called out? It just so happened that your mate and Mouse owned the same car? Except perhaps as you said he is the 4th owner not the 3rd

@@TwistedMetalCustoms……..didn’t say it was bullshit…….but some of the details of that car are a bit far fetched !……..and maybe Mr Moussie may have been passed some questionable history on the car ………..some story’s from some car people in Albury can be bigger then they really are……I know Craig ver well ………happy to put you on to my friend who can give some real details as been the last owner 😉

@sneekerflogger sorry, you said what a load of rubbish, anyway.. yeah it could be some mis information passed on but he can only tell us what he has been told or knows so 🤷, yeah I'm not claiming I know the back story of everything but I've seen the cars, plates and parts so I can only go off what I've seen too, but still a cool fact that it was the same car

I was the soldier who brought it in ‘93 , from your mate ( his missus was there) for $3300. The car has zero rust though. The car was stripped for restoration, has 63,000 miles on the clock. I spoke to Craig at great length, coincidentally spoke to him on spac😊book only a month ago. The car has a lot of ph4 parts on it, ran 13.8 back in the day. When I was posted there at Boneagilla, doing my motor mechanics course.

@@ChrisArmstrong-ir3fg …….sounds about right 🙏🏻😉👍…….we use to talk about that car from time to time and wondered what happened to it ……..and my friend believed it was “ wrote off “ after he owned …….and it’s actually good to know it still exists as it was a tough car when Craig owned it but believed some parts were removed by the time my friend owned it……..and the Norris cam from engine is one I remember

@@donkeys762 brilliantly said 🍻

@zalired8925 yeah and look, I wish I thought about that when we filmed it, but glad you watched this video to clarify

I would really be the pot calling the kettle black because I'm probably one of the furthest from perfect. Also I respect anyone who gives their commitment to our country. I was accepted myself into the NSW Transport Corps as a driver but I fractured my lower back one day before Kapunda which almost destroyed me. Cheers for the clarification.​@@TwistedMetalCustoms

Did you miss the part about spending up to half a year in hospital for 8 years and then going through a divorce? He also didn’t say his dad was too slow then he said his gotta buy a property and build a shed and his dads getting older and not so fast… luckily his 3 kids are young tho 🤷‍♂️

@nathanmacready872 I agree he should do a YT channel too! I'd watch it

what are you talking about

If you cared to watch it instead of trying to be a hero you will see it says pt2, and it's a different video

@@TwistedMetalCustoms This silliness never ends. You've gone back & trimmed sections of absolute delusion out of the previous vid to hide the evidence. Droves of the comments on the first vid were bang on point. We're getting more lies in this one... The appalling wreck described as an XC Cobra has clearly sat outside long enough to rust right through & sink at least 4 inches into the ground. Even the engine is rotten. Your pal is such a guru, he doesn't know magnesium isn't actually a metal. It was only an additive element blended with aluminium to create a lightweight aluminium alloy. Any metal with magnesium in it IS AN ALLOY. Even steel is an alloy, but that's all too complicated for garden variety clods with no clue. If you don't want appropriate feedback on posts showing cars that are clearly brutalized, ruined & neglected & left outside to rot, don't post them. Don't make it worse by running a commentary admitting the cars were ALL bought AND driven by the same owner who ruined them. Pulling one car to bits & cruelling it is bad enough. You show a production line of it. You deleted honest fair dinkum comments painstakingly typed up by caring considerate people to hide gross negligence & magnificent stupidity, some his, some yours. But trimming out the ridiculous lies about the Quad Carb Set Up really is precious. Congratulations on impressing the deluded. Twisted much?

@chasinjunktrashhunter225 I'm definitely keen to give him a hand if he moved closer, but I like your thought process! Maybe we can bring one to my shop one day and have a big BBQ and restoration day haha cheers 🍻

@IanMicheal yeah I wish I had the time and thought about how it would look as we filmed the first one, I am glad the context makes more sense now. Cheers Ian 🍻

Spot on Jay 🍻🍻

yeah good point, hopefully they can come and lend a hand to put the shade cover over them, or get them into the shipping containers coming. Cheers mate (good idea with the shade cover=ventilation = me likey) 🍻

@PatinaGarage1 thanks mate, yeah it was disappointing to be honest. Glad Mouse is a trooper though and was happy to do the 2nd video. Nice work on your recent video, the Monaro is a sweet car you have!

@ He has probably forgotten more than I know. Haha. Cheers for watching it mate mate. So keen to keep moving along with it.

Absolutely couldn't have said it better myself, thanks heaps champion for your clear vision and comment! ( yeah I'm ultra jealous too!) but happy for him 🍻🍻
