  • Hello! Welcome to Mart's Garage. I have decided to run my 33 coupe at this year's VHRA Hot Rod Races at Pendine. I have ran it before in it's current configuration, so I wanted to see what a difference a dual carb setup would make.
    So Join me and Geoff, Rusty and Trev on the trip down to Pendine, South West Wales. This Video covers the drive down and the first part of Saturday. I show most of the cars and my first run down the beach. I do see an improvement over my previous outing so the twin carbs appear to be doing the trick! Make sure you look out for part 2!
    The engine in the coupe is the crusty flatty. The one I featured in a video series a few years ago. Check it out the playlist if you want to see an engine that in reality should have been scrapped.
    I Hope you enjoy this offering. Don't forget: Keep it real! Keep it cheap!
    Thanks for joining me once again in Mart's Garage.

    Great video Mart, super first run, that second carb has certainly made a big difference, never raced on sand before plenty of gravel and tarmac but never sand, I guess it brings its own challenges, not least a propensity to rot a car out in seconds , given the amount of salt water you had to drive through on route to the paddock. Look forward to part 2. 👍

    Wonderful drive down! Some very beautiful countryside! The 33 pulled good all the way through. Winter job take the fenders off to get the salt out! Take care

    I just love that Zephyr #Six..Spent a few holidays as a passenger in my uncles example back in the 1950`s.My Dad only had a #Ford Y Type.
    He did have a 100E van later and a 100e Popular in that same colour though s Jeff`s Zephyr..
    I have forgotten the colour Blue though.

    I agree about running an old tired engine flat out, it does get a bit trepidatious! Nice chatting with you and Jeff, glad the carbs worked well.

      Yeah, Bernard, it feels like an eternity with the pedal mashed waiting for something to go bang.

    Good to see you on Saturday, I think you needed that extra knot in the bungee strap as you can see in the video the hood was lifting a bit on the way there... 🧐

    Supercharger next time and wider tyres, I would drive that everywhere I could, the sound of the engine is delicious.
