I'd love to see that Renault Dauphine get some air time in the future.
You prolly dont give a shit but does someone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly lost my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me!
@Leo Antonio instablaster ;)
need to see the Dauphine get restored to that rally spec, wow it looked awesome!
An MG Midget challenge would be excellent, go for it
Junkyard digs challenges are pretty sweet....
Do it!!
Thanks for the tour. The Renault restoration would be interesting to see. Don’t see many of those.
That Renault Dauphine, my family had one way before my time, same color, back in the early 60s. They lived just East of Watkins Glen and dad decided it would be a great race car, so he gutted it, put a roll cage in it, and put the seats back in and would drive it to the track for race days. Mom wasn't too happy about that. She was less happy when he broke an axle shaft and had to have it cobbled together to get home from the track. It must have been not long after the race track was built. I think it was more of a "bird in the hand" situation, he couldn't afford to build a dedicated race car at that point in his life, so the family grocery getter fit the bill.
The Dauphine is pretty cool but I'd love to see that Sunbeam Tiger brought back to life 😎
Dauphine for sure! My friend had one in High School. Three-bolt wheels were an oddity on an odd car (at the time).
Some old Hillmans had the same quirky feature, but with a more conventional looking pattern circle size.
My Uncle used to take me to my High School in his early 60’s 3sp Renolt Dolphene. I remember how tiny it was and how noisy too. But it was cool seeing my friends look at me crawling out of it at school 😎
Renault Renault Renault Renault ...👍👍👍🤞
like a hotwheels collection but with real cars!
very cool, i like the way you store your "projects," you set them on shelves instead of leaving them in an area open to nature and allow them to rot
You gotta challenge junkyard digs but also I would enjoy seeing how you engineered that chevy motor into that Nissan
Scarab developed and marketed a kit for that swap for the earlier Z cars, but I’m not sure about the later generation.
A very detailed series of A sunbeam tiger would be amazing.
One of the greatest collections of incomplete projects I've ever seen. As fellow ADD collector truly understands, that what happens when somethings happens and then we wonder what didn't happen, then at the same time what we thought was about to happen, was replaced by something that happened to be happening when at the same time some another thing was beginning to happen.
The most interesting cars appear to be the DKW and the Dauphine.
The Dauphine needs a video!!!
Obsession, plain and simple Sir, but we love you for it. I do not believe you can turn an old British car away that is threatened with crushing. Thanks for all your hard work.
The renault would make great viewing , please do it .
Your collection is immense but even more impressive are your epic road-train transportation pics from picking up the cars 😂
The Tiger is such a cool car,
I still remember in the 70’s
i was a teenager and a guy had a tiger close to my parents house. the sound of that V8.
Every time I heard it, i’d go out to see it going down the street...
I'm pretty sure you'll need two lives to complete all these projects and make youtube series out of them! If you and Kevin really consider a Roadkill style challenge, please, please go ahead and do it. I bet it'll be great!
When did you win the lottery?
The DKW would be my favorite car to see being rebuild but as another person commented, finding spare parts would probably be both time consuming and expensive. The Renault Dauphine looks like in great shape and a project to transform it like a Gordini would be very attractive (by the way, congrats on how you pronounced Renault Dauphine, faultless!). Spare parts would be easier to provide too.
Steve, ...how do you afford so many projects? Most guys save for years for just one such beauty! Clearly you are highly talented!!
Projects? These are just scrap metal on shelves.
I love full restoration of the old cars, mainly the English ones of course , having owned and driven them.
Steve...You give me the inspiration to keep working on my cars which is every day! I have just a few compared to you! I'm at 38. I'm into MB, Jaguar, Range Rover, Rolls Royce & Bentley. There is ALWAYS something going wrong! Love your channel..
The Renault would be my choice as it's something you haven't covered before and there aren't too many around these days. I would just keep it original.
Junkyard digs showdown, sounds terrific
Steve, Steve, Steve, you're going to have to live to 350 years to get all that stuff done. Or employ about 20 other enthusiasts!! Thanks for showing us your passion.
Your shop is HUGE. I can't imagine the rent alone !
Or he just bought it....😉
12:55 Most (if not all) folks are trying to cleanup shelves from junk to put parts on them. Steve, clear out parts from shelves to put cars on them!!!
Brilliant video....love them all Steve.
"Of course I want it" Got to love it Steve. Thanks for the tour.
I'm in New Zealand, and the Mini vans took me back to when i learnt to drive in an 'Estate', then bought a Panel Van with an 1100 mtr, then bought a 67 Mini car-Glutton for Punishment- good fun, but a complete bastard to work on. Keep up the good work- MG's Minis etc are as scarce as hens teeth here now.
True, NZ used to be the land of old British cars.
Thank you Steve! I enjoyed that! The Renault Dauphine will have the same (or very similar) engines to the Renault Floride, Caravelle, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10, so a 1300 in that Dauphine will make it fly! :-)
of what you showed ...midget battle with kevin, and the renault dauphine for me ........ plus any update on the blue jag power loss issue i spotted it as you were goin around
Life goals right there!
I'd like to see more on the Renault and the DKW
I had a 65 Renault Caravelle HT/Conv back in the day. Sadly, Iowa weather got the best of it. Nice to see Renault represented! Glad I found your channel and to see another fellow Iowan on YT.
Finish the Z and run it at the Freedom Factory.
Love to see the renoue build!
Great projects! Love to see you start working on those! I'd love to see the challenge with Junkyard digs!!
loved seeing those minis.. especially in van/traveller format. due to weather and salt on roads are super rare even for uk.
great video ..... lovely cars
Glad someone is saving these cars, I have the same illness, you can't save them all but the 'you never know' level is high, the one day I'll do it is also high, but do your own thing, you like these cars as much as I do, I like the Midget project...looks like screaming for your help... I can imagine the smell of the cars and how these cars make you feel better... Keep saving them even the too far or partscars find a home, over here the pleasure is over, the outside cars are found, the inside too expensive....pitty...I'm a very big fan, top!
Glad I watch junk yard digs because thats where I found your channel , really enjoy your content , would love to see all the cars you pointed out for possible restoration , RESTORED !! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK !!
Excellent job saving those cars Steve. The Sunbeams look incredible! I would definitely put some effort into those.
Thank you for rescuing all those great vehicles from the crusher! A lot of your viewers would do the same if they had the space (and a willing spouse!).
Steve: Great video, as always! I would love to see you do something with your Renault Dalphine. When I was very young, in the early 1960s, my Dad had one in black, with a black and white interior. In those days, it seems that many people who lived in New York and commuted to NYC had a "regular car" that they drove on weekends, and a "commuter car" for commuting to the city. My Dad's commuter car was a Renault Dalphine. He only drove it for a couple of years, then sold it when we moved to AZ, where we only needed his "regular car" which was a 1959 Oldsmobile Super 88. I recall that the Dalphine got great mileage, but suffered from many quality issues such as the tail lights filling with water when it rained. -- it is amazing how picky people have gotten recently. Keep up the good work!
Awesome collection! Love the channel
Wow I haven't saw that British motors van for years remember that setting down town by his shop very cool!!!
It amazes me to watch your videos on all these old British cars. Your MG collection is wonderful. MG RESTO
Steve - you are a lucky guy.
Good on you mate👍
Great tour - answered a number of questions about the vehicles that see see usually in the background. Personally I would like to see a similar introduction to your utility vehicles; the ones that you use in your restoration work as well as the ones that you are standing beside at the end of this video.
Thanks for this video , been looking forward to something like this since the early days of your channel .
Yes, we want to see all of your videos
Thank you.
Alpine Tiger build. Love those.
I had 1969 Renault R10 for a minute years ago. It wasn't the best design, but rear engine & 4 wheel IS made it fun to drive. Your collection are a lot sportier looking, for sure!
Thank you for the tour. Love the Mk 1 AH Frogeye Sprite. Too bad is just sits there waiting. Maybe someday you will consider selling it. My immediate car "bucket list" includes an Iris Blue Frogeye. Someday soon maybe...
amazing collection
Definitely, you need to restore the Dauphine and give it the Gordini rally treatment!
Thanks for sharing. I have been eyeing that Simca for a while. Thought it was a Renault 10 from a distance. I'd love to see that and the Dauphine! It would also be great to see a more in-depth long term project. Maybe rust repair. I'm digging into my first rust repair ever right now, and it's a little intimidating!
Love the South Amana Jeep, my grandpa has lived in South Amana his entire life, I go there often - that thing is amazing! If you know the area well, he weaves rugs and sells them out of his little shop in South. I know a guy who has a (50's?) postal Jeep in rough shape who lives outside of South as well, think he got it from the Society if I remember correctly. Would be awesome to see your Jeep back on the road, maybe put it in the Octoberfest parade? I am sure a lot of older Amana residents would recognize it and love to see it running again! If you ever decide to get rid of it for cheap, it might be a fun project!
Good tour Steve...Brad
I owned a ‘67 Triumph Spitfire and a ‘62 TR3b. Both I drove while living in Italy. The Spitfire had zero problems but the TR3b was constantly overheating (In the early 70’s they didn’t have electric fans which would’ve fixed the overheating problem.). It finally blew a head gasket.🥵😡
Would love to see you complete the white Bugeye, get the other Bugeye converted to a street legal racer, and that sunbeam tiger, bring it off the rack and start it as a project as well. Oh, more of those Bugeye barn finds PLEASE!!! Thanks Steve!
Steve - dude - that is an Amazing collection of cars! I need to come visit for a week...
Definitely go for the Gordini Renault Dauphine conversion, that would be fantastic. Brilliant channel by the way.
Very nice......dauphine rally, z/v8, green mg.....
Hi Steve. Thanks for this . I think you know most of the "B"s are breakers apart from the pull handle roadster and the GT. Dauphine ....great idea ! All the Sunbeams are worth saving (to save Tigers ) The mini's would sell well over here ($3 to 4 k for the pair ) You'll never break a 'frogeye"!! 😂 And just a huge pat on the back for saving these classics. Well done Steve !
That green MGB GT would be an awesome restoration project! I would love to have that car in my garage to keep my roadster company.
Thank you for saying “Innocenti” the right way ❤️
That Dauphine is NICE!
Those British cars are a shout out to my youth in England when I started my mechanical apprenticeship.
Would love to see the Renault Dauphine restored
Think you should go at an Alpine or two. Use a 1725cc engine and go Holbay spec on it.
Love those MGB GTs!
I'd love to see a midget battle with JYD. His "restore" of that car introduced me to your channel.
I had a Simca like that one, my first car. If it was a windy day and you were travelling on the highway, it would be blown around by the wind. I traded it for a '68 Dodge Dart 318 ci V8 with a Hurst 4 speed transmission. It was a great car.
SPECTACULAR!
I think an MG Midget rebuild/restoration would be awesome.
as a renault fanatic, i love how all the comments here are about the dauphine. please do this car in the future
awesome! I have a '67 Series 2a!
The Renault done like that blue one would be super
Brilliant video. I'd love to see that Dauphine running again. Also let's see a further video on the mgtd engine rebuild!
thanks for saving these cars from the scrapyard in the sky, I've got a 67 Triumph,glad it survived.
Thanks for the walk around. Please do the Dauphine. Leave it stock please.
I would also love to see the dauphine. Also electrifying the simca would be a cool project.
Apart from some weird and wonderful historic cars, the thing I liked most about this tour is your realistic attitude. Too many guys accumulate rare cars in terrible condition and hoard them, often outside, for decades. Most, if not all of them, will never be back on the road.
You finish projects; we see that, but you realise that you can't save them all and you seem to be picking through your collection, using the cars for the best final outcome. 👍👌😁
No-one lives long enough to restore a collection of that size but you accept that and I enjoy watching you restore/save the ones that make the cut.👍
Reading through the comments, it looks very much like the Dauphine should be first to get the Steve treatment, along with the DKW and some sort of challenge with Kevin from JYD. I'll happily watch any, or all, of these. T.W.W.C. is so much better than the mainstream motoring cr@p that infests my tv.
Cheers for now,
Dougie.
The Simca would move well with a two cylinder Harbor Freight engine. Seen them move heavier cars surprisingly well.
The Renault has a great look. Would like to see you do that one!
I’d love that old 124 fiat spider lol
Sweet Willys MD Steve, we're restoring one of them in our channel as we speak.
Great video again man you have alot of really cool cars
I would love to see you work on the Renault Dauphine! I helped resurrect a Dauphine when i was a teenager.
The Gordini and the Inocenti would be great to restore
I love the old Renaults, my mother had an r8 or r10 when I was about 6. She keeps saying she'd love another one but any that are left are way too expensive 🇦🇺🦘🙃🦘🇦🇺
Amazing it can bare the weight of those cars!! My driveway can barely handle two :)
The Renault should be the next project to show for sure
Great video Steve... a Midget challenge would be fun to see, also an MGB restoration would be popular due to the affordability of these cars.
