These channels fixing crashed cars would be worth watching if they actually had a clue what they were doing. They dont! The way they repair is - bad. This is why I rather watch folks working on an old mini.
@Joey 83 maybe the MG. I dont mind the truck. But it's a truck lol. The MG shall be interesting. But it's all carbon fiber isn't it. God knows what they'll be upto there... I'm sure it'll entertain. But for now I'm happy just watching this evolve lol
Hi, André! Yes, it was a beautiful little Nik/ Richard switcheroo, wasn't it. Especially Richard's long-suffering 'Oh, do shut up!' stare. You can never weld too much irony into a project like this... ;-)
I've spent hours studying famous cars and motorcycles in museums and at shows, because it's really cool to examine up close something you've only known about from afar. But since pretty much everybody in the world (or at least those who would care) knows every little detail of its construction, it's going to be uniquely special in the future to see Binky in the flesh. We'll all elbow the person next to us and say, "I know all about this on'. I was there when it was built, ya know!"
It’s also amusing that here in Oz non-metric is usually referred to as, “Imperial” (often by Al when he’s working on old Holdens). Not sure what our Septic friends would make of that... 😁
@@duckmcf Imperial isn't an uncommon term here(US), the association is lost at this point. There really isn't a universal term among several, SAE, fractional or standard are pretty interchangeable. Probably regional or industry biases for one term or another though.

Nostalgia Matt from Matt Urch's (Urchfab) Mongrel build has Fooked him over big style on the [lack of] paint boys... dont touch that fool with a barge pole! 🤣
@@barrybritcher Hi, Barry! I've got no idea, mate, but Nostalgia Matt sounds like one of those dreary 'heritage' emulsions from a Dulux colour chart. 1940-style turd brown or swamp green, maybe.

Did I hear a very lightly veiled nod to the boys down under at The Skid Factory? The lemon squash reference was easily picked up if you are a fan of the chaps down under!
@@Pugjamin Is Alan the Koala bear then? I saw a bad Obsession Tea Mug on one of their recent videos so that's how I knew there was a link there. Think they have a way to go to come up to Nik's bracketry skills though! I often wonder about the daily personal transport of car builders …. wonder if they all drive something from the VW/Audi group where they expect very little problems from day to day running.....
In the US it's not _that_ bad to insure something like this. Your local DMV or Police will certify that it's road legal, you'll need justifying documentation if you're wanting full/comprehensive coverage, and it'll be very expensive. But on the whole, not hard.
Re-watching the whole darn show while waiting for episode 38 to be released. Can't imagine how many time you checked over the car to make sure there wasn't another one last thing before paint.
i started watching this when i was in high school. I have since graduated, married, had kids, and am now debating on whether I should start a retirement fund or buy a mini cooper.
Buy a car you love, and that your kids might love too. Start a retirement fund. Work on the car AND retire, if you can. Saving money for big emergencies and rainy days is always a good idea, and retirement funds can get you through many future emergencies, so you don't have to sell the car.
"sometimes I think you deliberatly make things more complicated than then need to be !!" This sentence should we written on the front of your workshop !! So satisfying to see a new bracket episode !!! Please continue as you are, I watching your channel from so long! I am so looking forward to seeing Binky finished!
I see we are on another haircut! I would like to express my appreciation. This series caused me to buy a welder and start learning myself. Thank you again!
Just a friendly heads up lad that there a guy going by the name of nostalgia Matt who offer to do a “free” top notch paint job to Matt itch’s mongrel project, 4 months after taking the car Matt urch has had to recover it from the yard with barely a drop of work done to it, watch urchfab latest episode for a breakdown of the detail, reason I mention it is the guys has allegedly been banding the Bonny name about so may try and get publicity for his channel via working with yours, this was the terms of the urchfab deal that’s ended in tears
Damn. I wanted to upvote just for the badger comment only to find I’d already upvoted for something else. People underestimate the risks associated with having a stray badger in the car. I always find it hard to heel and toe properly with a badger chewing my ankle.
A notification comes up on the Land Rover Series 2 website each time there is a new Project Binky episode... its no longer considered “off topic”. The engineering in this project is utterly immense. I live in Switzerland where vehicle modification is extremely limited up to the point where a non original stereo has seen vehicles fail the MOT equivalent. Keep up the brilliant work.
It’s not often that I comment on YT films, but guys, your channel is the only one where I get that old ‘comic lands on the mat’ feeling when I see a new episode...fan-tstic. I’ve been watching for some time now and am inspired by what you do for my own builds. Keep up the good work and keep ‘making the noise’...
I'm pretty confident we're all nuts here for having watched this for so long. We're kind of committed to seeing this through to the end. I hope for a better ending than GoT Season 8...
I don't know how the two of you have enough time in your life to work on 2 projects at the same time and film, and edit, and upload. You must not sleep, like ever.
The world will know you and ur skill after the car will be finished really I am very happy for you. I think I am also the part of this project ....... love ur work guys perfect and excellent
Tarzan eat your heart out. This is what makes this channel so good. Two mates mucking about with an original project - and not being too serious with themselves. UK Humour at its best. The actual engineering on Binky though - thats some of the best I have seen bar none. Going to be at a loss what to watch once Binky is complete. Only another 5 years to go 😉
I love how Binky has become a TH-cam-wide project that car mod, machining, music, racing and other channels have started following and vice versa. Catching references in BOM vids to lots of channels I watch is great but now all those same channels are slipping in little BOM and Binky references too. Too cool.
I started binge watching Binky yesterday and just like that a new one appeared! Love this series so much, it's amazing what the British will do in order to avoid accidentally taking over the world.
I was like you once. I came in at episode 15 thinking "HA all these suckers had to wait and I just get to binge watch up til the end. I'm awesome." My hair is grey now and the nurse is coming to give me a sponge bath at 4.
Awesome, can I add just a small precautionary tip regarding those PTFE fuel lines. When tightening them up Tighten the outside nut and not the fitting that goes inside the PTFE piping, as once it starts to grip the pipe it can twist the PTFE and cause a flow restriction. And yes I have made hundreds of them. 20+ years in pipe manufacture for both car and commercial vehicles. Loving the series though. Excellent!
I laughed so much guys, thanks a lot this brightened my day. Once again a stellar job, absolutely amazing work you guys are pulling off. Thank you for making videos!
You might need to put some hood vents on that mini to expel some of the heat from that Celica GT-Four engine. If they plan to drive this thing hard at any point, also smart to do before paint.
I love your videos - please don't get involved with Nostalgia regarding paint primer or buffing - just learned he cheated Matt from Ursfab -- just a warning so we all will see Binky done someday
I heard via another channel (Urchfab) that you were thinking of getting Binky painted by Matt from "Nostalgia Matt" channel. I would seriously reconsider that thought after listening to how Matt totally screwed the painting of the Mongrel built by Urchfab. Any other viewers from Urchfab here, please give this a like to bring it to the attention of Nick and Richard.
Never thought I'd ever see the day that you guys would say "time to tear her down so we can send it to paint" I almost don't want this amazing journey to end... This is by far the most under rated automotive channel in you tube.
These videos truly are superlative, sir. With just two minor flaws. One, some people have downvoted. And two, some people have downvoted. Now I realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but I thought that it was such a big one that it was worth mentioning twice.
I have a 1958 Lambretta that is set to take as long as this fab job, i have been watching this since i moved to costa rica, for three years, and now returned to the states three years!
Plenty of milling machine envy here! And general skills envy - taking out the tea and staring, it's takes me 10x to do anything...inspiring stuff! Stay warm in there.
They did whatever they were referring to with a nose and cone bearing more likely...... Nos = We Facit = from the verb facio meaning to create, make, bring forth Per = via, by way of Nasum = Nose Et = and Petasum = from Patatis for a wide brimmed hat, or crucially, something cone shaped / conical. Quod erat demonstrandum, they did whatever it was with a nose and cone.... ??
I love it. I can’t wait to see it painted! Imagine seeing all the brackets hung up for paint. You’ll probably have more time into painting them and all the interior panels than you will the chassis 😂. Keep up the good work guys!
It really took this episode to let the insanity of that whole undertaking sink in (and I've been watching it from the beginning). Hats off to you fine gentleman!
That was great and what made it even better was it was totally unexpected as no long since the previous. Watching from my hospital bed at the moment so a great pick me up. Thanks guys.
Hi Lads. The next time you want to cut a cable you could add some solder to the cable, it will prevent the cable from fraying if you cut it with the angle grinder. something to think about. I have enjoyed watching these videos since almost the beginning. Classic Minis have always been one of my favorite cars. So when I found your channel almost 5 years ago I was very happy. You do something almost no channels do, you show all of the work. Its not one of those bollocks, "This car was stripped, engine totally rebuilt and painted inside and out in five episodes in less than three months! See how Easy it is!" This represents a totally unreal picture of building a project car. Your channel shows what two guys can do working weekends, and taking the time to film it. Five years plus is what it takes, unless you have unlimited financial resources, and can pay to have the work done. if you can find a good shop who doesn't have a waiting list, to have the work done. Even painting a car takes time. The job is only as good as the preparation. Preparation is ninety percent of the job. Sanding takes time, unless you you want a bollocks job. After painting comes color sanding, and polishing of the clear coat. Then polishing, and swirl removing. After that, Ceramic coat, and if you care about your paint, PPF. Paint protection film protects from bug splatter, rock chips, etc, and is ussualy applied to the entire front end and the mirrors.In between, there is time for the primer to dry, the paint to dry the clear coat to harden. The point is this all takes time., yours is one of the only channels that shows that in a realistic light. I thought this was going to be a daily driver for Mick, after all that custom fabrication rallying this could completely destroy all that hard work. If there is a possibility of ending up on its roof in a ditch, you should fit a six point roll cage before you even think about rallying this mini, and before you paint the interior, unless you want to ruin the interior paint. You should sand blast the running gear, the suspension components, and paint them with epoxy primer and paint , so when the Mini comes back from paint you can assemble it into a fished car. The bottom of the car will have to be painted on a rotisserie and should be done first. Assuming you are going to paint the interior the same color as the exterior the interior, the boot, and the door sills should be painted first, and clear coated. After they are dry, then you do the exterior. Have you had any luck getting someone to let you scan parts from the MG Rover project? Crack on Lads! Love this channel!

The subtle back and forth between Binky and the Skid Factory is awesome.

Al will be proud! :D
I didn't know they had them (lemon squashes) in the UK, maybe Al and Woody keep them in supply.
Funnier because the latest Skid Factory video had a BOM mug and a reference to brackets. Nice cross promotion :)
I really hope for the internets sake, they test fit, and film some lemon squashs being tucked in that nook🤣

These videos truly are superlative, sir. With just two minor flaws. One, some people have downvoted. And two, some people have downvoted.
Now I realise that technically speaking that's only one flaw but I thought that it was such a big one that it was worth mentioning twice.
11:20 - the writing on the ring says: one ring to cut them all, one ring to strip them all and with TIG welder bind them.
"Septic measurement" was fantastic!

I have a 1958 Lambretta that is set to take as long as this fab job, i have been watching this since i moved to costa rica, for three years, and now returned to the states three years!
"The bracket needs a bracket."
...of course it does.
Gee whiz!
I was having a good day until I saw this pop up, now it is a great day.

I was hoping to see a picture of you two
Plenty of milling machine envy here! And general skills envy - taking out the tea and staring, it's takes me 10x to do anything...inspiring stuff! Stay warm in there.
"we did a nose and a hat".
Thank f*** for that.
haha, was wondering about that one too :D
I translated before I read the comments
Fecit can also mean made, still awaiting a proper translation from my niece
Yes we do need some clarity on this..
They did whatever they were referring to with a nose and cone bearing more likely......
Nos = We
Facit = from the verb facio meaning to create, make, bring forth
Per = via, by way of
Nasum = Nose
Et = and
Petasum = from Patatis for a wide brimmed hat, or crucially, something cone shaped / conical.
Quod erat demonstrandum, they did whatever it was with a nose and cone.... ??
I love it. I can’t wait to see it painted! Imagine seeing all the brackets hung up for paint. You’ll probably have more time into painting them and all the interior panels than you will the chassis 😂. Keep up the good work guys!
I'm just here for the funk
I'm here for a place to hide the badgers.
It really took this episode to let the insanity of that whole undertaking sink in (and I've been watching it from the beginning). Hats off to you fine gentleman!
Loved it. As always! :) Looking forward to see it in its final colors.
Traditional racing green I hope, yeah?

That was great and what made it even better was it was totally unexpected as no long since the previous. Watching from my hospital bed at the moment so a great pick me up. Thanks guys.
Don’t let Nostalgia Matt anywhere near this car.

What happened?

Hi Lads. The next time you want to cut a cable you could add some solder to the cable, it will prevent the cable from fraying if you cut it with the angle grinder. something to think about. I have enjoyed watching these videos since almost the beginning. Classic Minis have always been one of my favorite cars. So when I found your channel almost 5 years ago I was very happy. You do something almost no channels do, you show all of the work. Its not one of those bollocks, "This car was stripped, engine totally rebuilt and painted inside and out in five episodes in less than three months! See how Easy it is!" This represents a totally unreal picture of building a project car. Your channel shows what two guys can do working weekends, and taking the time to film it. Five years plus is what it takes, unless you have unlimited financial resources, and can pay to have the work done. if you can find a good shop who doesn't have a waiting list, to have the work done. Even painting a car takes time. The job is only as good as the preparation. Preparation is ninety percent of the job. Sanding takes time, unless you you want a bollocks job. After painting comes color sanding, and polishing of the clear coat. Then polishing, and swirl removing. After that, Ceramic coat, and if you care about your paint, PPF. Paint protection film protects from bug splatter, rock chips, etc, and is ussualy applied to the entire front end and the mirrors.In between, there is time for the primer to dry, the paint to dry the clear coat to harden. The point is this all takes time., yours is one of the only channels that shows that in a realistic light. I thought this was going to be a daily driver for Mick, after all that custom fabrication rallying this could completely destroy all that hard work. If there is a possibility of ending up on its roof in a ditch, you should fit a six point roll cage before you even think about rallying this mini, and before you paint the interior, unless you want to ruin the interior paint. You should sand blast the running gear, the suspension components, and paint them with epoxy primer and paint , so when the Mini comes back from paint you can assemble it into a fished car. The bottom of the car will have to be painted on a rotisserie and should be done first. Assuming you are going to paint the interior the same color as the exterior the interior, the boot, and the door sills should be painted first, and clear coated. After they are dry, then you do the exterior. Have you had any luck getting someone to let you scan parts from the MG Rover project? Crack on Lads! Love this channel!

I understood that reference
I didn't get it
