Really nice to hear a garage owner praising their younger mechanics. Here's hoping that Iain's knowledge and enthusiasm trickles down to future generations.
All this nonsense about such and such generation being slackers etc and we got a couple of new people in their early 20s and they have been great! Took them both aside and told them how pleased I have been with their work ethic and performance over the last 3 months. Told the bosses too so they can be looked after monetarily as well.
Iain I'm sure I can speak for many. The Road Tests are just the cherry on the top of your amazing knowledge and history with your Elves on the cars that enter your workshop.
It's actually a nice change to have a channel that simply lifts the curtain on this world rather than going for big flashy moments. I think a lot of us would love to hang out in this shop, learn from masters, and help turn a wrench.
Another brilliant video, Iain the road tests are awesome but for me, an old school mechanic I truly love the engine strips and interior reworks. The chats with the guys actually doing the strip downs is fantastic, keep them coming.
As part of my engineering degree, I had to spend a couple of months working in industry and the fun part of my experience was in the Engine Repair Shop at Rolls Royce (Crewe) in the late 1960s. This was the shed where they built reconditioned engines. I remember that the fitter I was assigned to said something like "The new engines are only really good for 200,000 miles. We expect our engines to last for a million miles." He took a lot of pride in his work and perfection was just a stage on the way to good enough.
One of the points I liked most about this video was the age of your engine builder he looked very young and enthusiastic so it’s good to see the next generation taking an interest in classic cars for which many thanks. He has of course one of the best mentors so he’s very fortunate 🤗
I love to see the proof of how a well looked after car internals are with an engine strip down, the dino was obviously loved. Also as an ex Torrington inspector i cracked a little smile at the transfer bearing mention, stunning cars all round.
@@Toby_the_Glen Obviously loved, but basically never driven. A thousand miles a year or less? It damn well should be in excellent condition. You probably walk more than that! I do wish more classic car owners would use the things instead of treating them as an artwork.
@@neilbarnes3557 an engine warmed up properly can be driven hard, but a cold engine will suffer horrific eng wear, but seeing an engine thats stood in poor conditions will damage bores and most moving parts too, so to conclude that stripping an engine that has stood the time with negligible issues over such time is almost unheard of and detriment to the owner who obviously knew how to make a worthy car last.
The thing for me is these are exotic cars which you wouldn’t normally see, hear or learn about but put across by Ian in an easy non condescending way that’s informative and interesting. Add his stories, his humour and the staff interviews and this is a must see for me…. Thanks Ian …you deserve it
It's said that comparisons are odious but I wish they were as understated and educational over here in the States. Your use of the word hyperbole was not lost on this viewer. There are many who could take a leaf out of your book. Thank you for your consistent, high quality and informative approach to automotive engineering. Keep up the great work! PS. I just started up my car after winter storage, this afternoon and it fired up immediately... But I'm very much looking forward to your instructional episode on starting and warming up an engine after a lay off. Perhaps you could include tips on winter storage, like adding extra tyre pressure and preservative to the fuel?
I love your channel, Ian. Thank you for your enthusiasm on all things vintage cars. I’ll probably never have the wallet for a Dino but I do own and fly what some might consider a vintage aircraft. She’s a ‘72 Bellanca Super Viking. Her dash (called the ‘panel’ in aviation speak) was covered in that exact flocked black fabric from the factory. I recovered the original faded panel fabric a couple years ago. So perhaps, in theory, I do have a piece of the Dino with me airborne!
Ian, it is from here in Texas, to Australia, to Canada...ALL A ROSS the globe sir!!! We all SALUTE your knowledge, YOUR KINDNESS, the way you PRAISE AND APPRECIATE those younger craftsmen...there is NO HOBBY without future experts, THANK YOU. from all of us watching !!!
This channel is the best advertising possible. The feeling of trustworthiness, is in my opinion, the most important factor in choosing where to have a loved car taken car of. My guess would be that the amount of business gained long term will dwarf the time spent on the channel.
Well, we have to thank you of course for the merits from your side. The high views are well deserved Iain as this is exclusively the highest content about supercars and all their niggling details. It’s never been shown and clarified to this elaborate and high standard. What has bewildered me a bit is how feebly some of them are put together such as the Dino. Thank you for all of you efforts.
You have to remember that the Dino was the entry level car for Ferrari. To Enzo, only a twelve cylinder engine was acceptable in one of his car. Period. That's why it never wore a Ferrari badge. 🙄
The condition of that engine is a testament to the previous owner, and to the chap employed to care for it. Deepest respect for their sense of mechanical sympathy. As Jay Leno says, there's just something fantastic about an original, unrestored car. Even though this one is being restored, it's really just being rejuvenated, not repaired.
Here in North America. Back in the 90's we had Speedvision. What a great channel that was. Tyrrell's Classic Workshop reminds me to some of the shows of back then. Just full of information and passion. Keep it up. I'm sure there are many more over here (Ontario, Canada) that are watching.
I remember my dad showing me the ‘art’ of starting my 1968 Escort MkII. 3/4 choke, 2 dabs on the throttle, a firm turn of the key, when she fires up get on that choke quickly to shut her off as soon as you possible can to keep the engine running and then drive off gently and normally. Those were the days 😀. I had that vision of fuel washing the cylinder walls embedded in my head! Good old dad bless him.
This is one of about 3 workshop based channels i subscribe to. I really enjoy the no BS drama; it feels like we're part of crew looking over the shoulder of the mechanics. We don't need music or drama, just more of what you're currently doing. It is enjoyable, keep up the great work Iain and team.
Preaching to the converted about preventative/routine maintenance. It's recommended in owners manuals for a good reason. Beautiful Dino, really looking forward to the progress reports.
Iain listening to you talk about the restoration process on these Ferraris and Lamborghinis is such a pleasure. Thank you so much for taking the time to go into detail and shed light on the mysteries of these marvelous machines. The test drives are wonderful but hardly necessary to reap enjoyment from your channel. Yes please do the video on warming up our classic cars. Go in depth. Thank you again.
I remember Lampredi himself, speaking about cam wear on both the Ferrari V12 and Dino V6 engines, as there was narrower oil capacity in the camshaft area , than in the excellent Fiat 4 cylinder twin cam which had separate cam boxes with “baths” of oil around them by comparison , hence the need to check and adjust the valve clearances at far more regular intervals on the Ferrari engines, than on the Fiat which was also capable of high revolutions. Congratulations on the success of your video channel , well deserved.
And back to you, thanks for making interesting videos. As a former mechanic and classic car lover you’re pushing all the buttons. Your videos are well balanced with test drives, technical and historical information about cars I want to hear and see. All this and no chick bait and no lengthy banter to lengthen your videos. 10/10
no , thank you Iain ( partially for taking Harry's suggestion , but mainly for your wealth of knowledge & willingness to share it ) .. oh and the nice cars being driven is a bonus
Lovely videos! I’ve been an avid TH-cam user for over 15 years now and your quality and knowledge is one of the by far the best on this platform. I’m rather excited every time a new video comes out. On any subject for that matter. Thank you for providing good quality, classy content which seems impossible to find in this day and age. Cheers!
That was a very good comment on the expected mileage on a 1970, petrol engine.To do a hundred thousand was a miracle.Oils have changed so much and tolerances are finer now that a well serviced petrol engine is expected to last 100000 and beyond well beyond.This was the reason that so many high mileage cars were clocked back at point of resale in those days.The chevette engine he mentioned was knackered at 50000 if not alot less.
Went on the peasants Ferrari tour round Maranello around 8 years ago, and Ferrari still stored bodies outside around the factory! Albeit painted and wrapped in plastic bags. After having done the Aston factory tour, and had the spiel on how even just a finger print on the bare metal bodies can cause major paint problems, seeing Ferraris in plastic bags was a real eye opener! Love the videos. 👍
My favorite channel dealing with classic cars. Your knowledge and experience as well as your very cultivated form of expressing yourself is music to my ears. Best wishes from Dominican Republic.
Great to see Apprenticeships being supported. Brings back happy memories of doing my City & Guilds in Motor Vehicle Studies which ultimately led to a career going full circle and becoming a teacher of mechanics. City & Guilds is still going strong if anybody is interested in learning mechanics or Apprenticeships, speak to your local College or training provider.
Im an old school ex SAAB master technician, and i still follow a warm up procedure to this day on my 1997 9000 Aero 2.3T. The B2x4 series engines originate in design from 1977 so technically an old design. Ive ditched my company car and now im doing 800 miles a week in my old 9000 Aero. Its glorious, fast, comfortable, and does 40mpg everywhere. Full engine service every 10 weeks roughly. Following the warm up procedure during my day i may hit the limiter 3 or 4 times a day every day. Despite this it has no engine wear at all. Treat cars right and they will go on forever...
Iain, there is absolutely no need to thank us--- the pleasure is all ours. Thank you for making these videos available. You have the best channel on youtube!
I am sure all of us viewers also thank you Iain for the quality of the channel - without you presenting such interesting vehicles and with such knowledge - the channel would not be such a success. Thanks Iain. Have a safe and nice day all. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA.
Iain and the team's incredible knowledge, paired with a healthy helping of his lovingly snide remarks (14:09 for example), make for a lovely viewing! This has to be some of the best content out there for those with a mechanical inclination, or an interest in classic cars. No wonder there have been so many viewers in the past month.
Yes, great encouragement for your young team members...clearly remembering your experiences at Sargeant's in the past, passing on the advice and enthusiasm. Well done Iain. I always waited for the oil temperature to reach operating level, rather than water temperature with my Dino's in the late 70's, and used to skip 2nd gear when cold too. Never had any problems with either of them.
Good evening lain . Another dose of Tyrrells Classic Workshop .....yummy scrummy ! The Dino registration indicated it was registered in South Devon and it really is in remarkable condition bodily and mechanically . Have you seen the Quadrivalve Countach that Dennis Colins bought recently ? Fabulous car ! And the Silver Ferrari's owner either sells or loves cigars !!! And it is us, the viewers , who should thankyou for allowing us into your inner sanctum ! Thankyou Iain.
Sunday afternoon and I always hope for a bit of Tyrrell’s Classic Workshop. When the notification arrives it’s a great moment. The road tests are great but the workshop activity is the real joy. Couple this with a second dose via Harry’s Garage and the weekend is complete. Great stuff.
What a testament to the engineering and fabricating skills of those Ferrari engineers and factory workers. The fact that all of those engine components look virtually brand new and can be used again it’s just amazing
is it just me or is Leon a young facsimile? wonderful to see the knowledge being passed on to the younger generation... apprenticeship is thankfully still alive and well.. congrats on the channels success, very deserved
What a little bit of care can do over the years! That combined with a proper engine warm up will provide smiles for many thousands of miles to come! I wonder if newer petrol types have any influence on wear of these older engines, or should be considered in the deciding to re-use or replace pistons….
Iain, your videos are always a welcome sight and this one was no different. Seeing the inner workings of these revered engines gives us novice mechanics / enthusiasts a taste of the exotic which I've come to appreciate. I'm looking forward to the video about proper engine warm up with hopes you'll be able to detail the changes occurring over the years with what you work on in your daily life (vintage engines) versus the newer engines and how modern engines differ with respect to tolerances, oils now available and how that may correlate to wear at start up. Your knowledge is valued and certainly admired. Much thanks.
Such great content. Very definitely a working shop. It shows and that's the interesting part. Your encyclopaedic knowledge of the cars is a treat. Skip the drama, wouldn't want to 'drop a rod' to get a few more "likes". I appreciate the matter of fact presentation. Final road tests are a bonus. Congratulations and carry on.
I confess that I have never built a Dino engine, and at first I was thinking how surprisingly unexotic it was inside, particularly the combustion chambers. But then I saw the gorgeous nitrided crank and the stubby little conn. rods indicating a very short stroke and that rather changed my mind. I wonder how it would have gone if a Cosworth type 4-valve combustion chamber had been used instead. Regarding the bearings, I have only ever once reused a set on a rebuild and this was a 105,000 mile 16-valve Golf engine that was being heavily uprated - totally against my principles to do this, but they were literally perfect and in the end we decided that they had bedded in so well to the crankshaft (which also had no measurable wear) that they were less risk to use than fitting a new set. This was almost certainly down to plentiful counterweighting on the crankshaft and a very fastidious owner, you certainly couldn't ever do the same on a Ford Crossflow or even a BDA. Anyway, it ran perfectly for many years so I kind of felt some justification.
Fantastic video, enjoy the education. Looking forward to the video about ‘cold starting for maximum engine life and enjoyment’ for those that haven’t grown up with a choke, it will be enlightening.
Thank you Iain for sharing this wonderful Dino and your close and long history with it. I am all choked up on your behalf ! And, love seeing the benefits from being attentive to the cars' welfare over years of loving care. Thanks again!! ~ Roger
That was video that went straight to heart , many years ago 1978 I bought a LHD 1970 246 GT I was told it was on the crossover from a 206 to the 246 what was really nice it had knock on wheels , I used the car as a daily driver . I moved to Canada shipped the car there drove it for a few years then sold the car to a collector in the USA, properly the worst mistake I ever made seeing what they are worth now :) I have to say it has to be one of the most fun cars I have owned over the years. Great video thanks.
Thanks for another episode. I watched the removal of the engine over on Harry`s Garage of his Lamborghini, fantastic, you deserve all your success every episode a gem.
And the crankshaft is made of! Your knowledge Iain is out of this world. I can honestly say this channel is one of a very select few that I can watch each episode more than once. Thank you to you and your team for great content.
Congratulations on popping over the 1M views 😎😎😎 There is no substitute for regular maintenance & oil changes. I've got 92,000 km's on my motorbike & changed the oil every 5000km or less when doing track days. Oil still comes out super clean these days & valve clearances were all within spec about 5000km ago.
Thanks for another fantastic video, and as much as I enjoy the "road tests" my favourite part is actually seeing the "work around the shop" and hearing You and Your employees sharing Your wealth of knowledge and passion for these cars. Best regards.
Really nice to hear a garage owner praising their younger mechanics. Here's hoping that Iain's knowledge and enthusiasm trickles down to future generations.
The all stick, no carrot, bully the apprentice work culture that’s so ingrained in the U.K. really needs to change to be honest.
Absolutely, it’s peoples passion for what they do that ignites the fire inside the younger generation.
@@Jonathan_Doe_ Oh, I dunno, Iain should send him out for a tin of "Tartan paint" or a "Long Stand" lol.
Well this is a example of someone whom respects themselves. Thus they generally respect others.
All this nonsense about such and such generation being slackers etc and we got a couple of new people in their early 20s and they have been great! Took them both aside and told them how pleased I have been with their work ethic and performance over the last 3 months. Told the bosses too so they can be looked after monetarily as well.
No, thank you Ian, the channel's popularity is a reflection of how great it is.
Perfectly put! 👍
Agreed 100%
Definitely hit the nail on the head there. Refreshing to not be bombarded by fakery and clickbait titles.
Absolutely.
Well said
Iain I'm sure I can speak for many. The Road Tests are just the cherry on the top of your amazing knowledge and history with your Elves on the cars that enter your workshop.
Yes it's the knowledge, how to and unique stories that sets the high level.
Well said!
@@sharg0 It's all that plus, what makes this an "author" channel is the fantastic way Ian tells stories and explains the mechanics of a car
I'm so glad this channel is going great guns. Quality will out!
It's actually a nice change to have a channel that simply lifts the curtain on this world rather than going for big flashy moments. I think a lot of us would love to hang out in this shop, learn from masters, and help turn a wrench.
Quite happy here with my green tea and hobnobs feet up
I’d happily make tea and drift about there, I must admit.
Another brilliant video, Iain the road tests are awesome but for me, an old school mechanic I truly love the engine strips and interior reworks. The chats with the guys actually doing the strip downs is fantastic, keep them coming.
Hi William how are you doing 😊
Hearing the countach start up,was just pure 70,s heaven ❤️
As part of my engineering degree, I had to spend a couple of months working in industry and the fun part of my experience was in the Engine Repair Shop at Rolls Royce (Crewe) in the late 1960s. This was the shed where they built reconditioned engines. I remember that the fitter I was assigned to said something like "The new engines are only really good for 200,000 miles. We expect our engines to last for a million miles." He took a lot of pride in his work and perfection was just a stage on the way to good enough.
This channel is all wisdom with zero social media BS. Thank you.
One of the points I liked most about this video was the age of your engine builder he looked very young and enthusiastic so it’s good to see the next generation taking an interest in classic cars for which many thanks. He has of course one of the best mentors so he’s very fortunate 🤗
Happy to (also) see younger people doing work and thus keeping the knowledge alive.
This guy seems a lovely gentleman to work for. I wish I met people like him.
I love to see the proof of how a well looked after car internals are with an engine strip down, the dino was obviously loved.
Also as an ex Torrington inspector i cracked a little smile at the transfer bearing mention, stunning cars all round.
To be fair, I doubt the dino had to endure the life of a chevette!
@@Toby_the_Glen Obviously loved, but basically never driven. A thousand miles a year or less? It damn well should be in excellent condition. You probably walk more than that!
I do wish more classic car owners would use the things instead of treating them as an artwork.
@@neilbarnes3557 an engine warmed up properly can be driven hard, but a cold engine will suffer horrific eng wear, but seeing an engine thats stood in poor conditions will damage bores and most moving parts too, so to conclude that stripping an engine that has stood the time with negligible issues over such time is almost unheard of and detriment to the owner who obviously knew how to make a worthy car last.
Can we acknowledge the supreme production quality of Mr. Tyrrell's videos? After a stressful day I find his presentations very calming.
Iains knowledge and passion for cars of old is incredible. This channel is so enjoyable to watch and to see a new upload. Thank you😊
What a perfect end to a weekend watching another amazing offering from Iain and his team.
When I see you drop a video I know it's a wonderful Sunday 😊
A perfect example of the benefits of quality over quantity. One of the best car channels on the tube. Thanks for allowing us into your workshop Iain.
The thing for me is these are exotic cars which you wouldn’t normally see, hear or learn about but put across by Ian in an easy non condescending way that’s informative and interesting. Add his stories, his humour and the staff interviews and this is a must see for me…. Thanks Ian …you deserve it
It's said that comparisons are odious but I wish they were as understated and educational over here in the States. Your use of the word hyperbole was not lost on this viewer. There are many who could take a leaf out of your book.
Thank you for your consistent, high quality and informative approach to automotive engineering.
Keep up the great work!
PS. I just started up my car after winter storage, this afternoon and it fired up immediately... But I'm very much looking forward to your instructional episode on starting and warming up an engine after a lay off.
Perhaps you could include tips on winter storage, like adding extra tyre pressure and preservative to the fuel?
I love your channel, Ian. Thank you for your enthusiasm on all things vintage cars. I’ll probably never have the wallet for a Dino but I do own and fly what some might consider a vintage aircraft. She’s a ‘72 Bellanca Super Viking. Her dash (called the ‘panel’ in aviation speak) was covered in that exact flocked black fabric from the factory. I recovered the original faded panel fabric a couple years ago. So perhaps, in theory, I do have a piece of the Dino with me airborne!
Nice to see a young lad like Leon learning his craft from the master
Ian, it is from here in Texas, to Australia, to Canada...ALL A ROSS the globe sir!!! We all SALUTE your knowledge, YOUR KINDNESS, the way you PRAISE AND APPRECIATE those younger craftsmen...there is NO HOBBY without future experts, THANK YOU. from all of us watching !!!
This channel is the best advertising possible. The feeling of trustworthiness, is in my opinion, the most important factor in choosing where to have a loved car taken car of.
My guess would be that the amount of business gained long term will dwarf the time spent on the channel.
Well, we have to thank you of course for the merits from your side. The high views are well deserved Iain as this is exclusively the highest content about supercars and all their niggling details. It’s never been shown and clarified to this elaborate and high standard. What has bewildered me a bit is how feebly some of them are put together such as the Dino. Thank you for all of you efforts.

Just woke up and to my suprise Another Tyrrell's Workshop is available to watch. Great start to the day.😁😁
Hmmm....a Dino and a Countach in the same episode - WOW!! And, congratulations on reaching a million views last month; well deserved.
Lain, you sir are a Master of auto restoration. I am very pleased to watch the progress of Classic cars restored back to their former glory...
Iain and the team's incredible knowledge, paired with a healthy helping of his lovingly snide remarks (14:09 for example), make for a lovely viewing! This has to be some of the best content out there for those with a mechanical inclination, or an interest in classic cars. No wonder there have been so many viewers in the past month.
This is insanely interesting and entertaining.
Anyone that grew up with cars in the seventies and eighties will love this wonderful channel.
As usual, very engaging topic - thanks to Iain and the lads.
Fastest 18:21 vid in the world.
Looking forward to seeing the 246 restored
Yes, great encouragement for your young team members...clearly remembering your experiences at Sargeant's in the past, passing on the advice and enthusiasm. Well done Iain.
I always waited for the oil temperature to reach operating level, rather than water temperature with my Dino's in the late 70's, and used to skip 2nd gear when cold too.
Never had any problems with either of them.
Awesome you have an apprentice!!!Dude you are so lucky!!!! Best job ever. Take my word.
Great video as usual!! PLEASE do the cold warm up video :)
I love the sound of the countache engine and the beautiful/ridiculous rear of the car.. Just made me smile. Thanks.

is it just me or is Leon a young facsimile? wonderful to see the knowledge being passed on to the younger generation... apprenticeship is thankfully still alive and well.. congrats on the channels success, very deserved
Hi how are you doing 😊
Wonderful, the history, your vast knowledge.THANK YOU for letting us all in on your workday. Enjoy every minute
What a little bit of care can do over the years! That combined with a proper engine warm up will provide smiles for many thousands of miles to come!

Nice on Ian. You and the team are doing a great job.
As a passionate admirer of classic cars, I really love this channel.
Ian and the crew make me regret I didn't become a classic cars mechanic myself.
Superb simplistic presentation as always. Thankyou!

Seeing the inner workings of these revered engines gives us novice mechanics / enthusiasts a taste of the exotic which I've come to appreciate. I'm looking forward to the video about proper engine warm up with hopes you'll be able to detail the changes occurring over the years with what you work on in your daily life (vintage engines) versus the newer engines and how modern engines differ with respect to tolerances, oils now available and how that may correlate to wear at start up. Your knowledge is valued and certainly admired. Much thanks.
Thank you Ian, these videos are such a treat. Absolutely fascinating!
Many thanks, really a pleasure
Such great content. Very definitely a working shop. It shows and that's the interesting part. Your encyclopaedic knowledge of the cars is a treat. Skip the drama, wouldn't want to 'drop a rod' to get a few more "likes". I appreciate the matter of fact presentation. Final road tests are a bonus. Congratulations and carry on.
I am proud to say I have seen every episode. Always a treat to see a new movie notification.
Thanks fpr the catch up. That Dino will be spectacular.
If there is one channel that never disappoints, this is it.
Great video Iain. Tons of knowledge and patience to restore those mechanical beauties. Congratulations.
Brilliant work Mr. Tyrrell!
The video discription alone is a work of art!
I confess that I have never built a Dino engine, and at first I was thinking how surprisingly unexotic it was inside, particularly the combustion chambers. But then I saw the gorgeous nitrided crank and the stubby little conn. rods indicating a very short stroke and that rather changed my mind. I wonder how it would have gone if a Cosworth type 4-valve combustion chamber had been used instead. Regarding the bearings, I have only ever once reused a set on a rebuild and this was a 105,000 mile 16-valve Golf engine that was being heavily uprated - totally against my principles to do this, but they were literally perfect and in the end we decided that they had bedded in so well to the crankshaft (which also had no measurable wear) that they were less risk to use than fitting a new set. This was almost certainly down to plentiful counterweighting on the crankshaft and a very fastidious owner, you certainly couldn't ever do the same on a Ford Crossflow or even a BDA. Anyway, it ran perfectly for many years so I kind of felt some justification.
Fantastic video, enjoy the education. Looking forward to the video about ‘cold starting for maximum engine life and enjoyment’ for those that haven’t grown up with a choke, it will be enlightening.
Absolutely the best channel on TH-cam.
Thank you Iain for sharing this wonderful Dino and your close and long history with it. I am all choked up on your behalf ! And, love seeing the benefits from being attentive to the cars' welfare over years of loving care. Thanks again!! ~ Roger
That was video that went straight to heart , many years ago 1978 I bought a LHD 1970 246 GT I was told it was on the crossover from a 206 to the 246 what was really nice it had knock on wheels , I used the car as a daily driver . I moved to Canada shipped the car there drove it for a few years then sold the car to a collector in the USA, properly the worst mistake I ever made seeing what they are worth now :) I have to say it has to be one of the most fun cars I have owned over the years. Great video thanks.
I really enjoy these videos.
Thank you all for sharing your knowledge to the world. :)
I don’t know half of what you are talking about, but I am mesmerised. Love the videos 😎👍
God these videos are good. The way in which you speak to everyone working at the workshop is so kind and conversational, a real role model
Thanks for another episode. I watched the removal of the engine over on Harry`s Garage of his Lamborghini, fantastic,
you deserve all your success every episode a gem.
And the crankshaft is made of! Your knowledge Iain is out of this world. I can honestly say this channel is one of a very select few that I can watch each episode more than once. Thank you to you and your team for great content.
Congratulations on popping over the 1M views 😎😎😎
There is no substitute for regular maintenance & oil changes. I've got 92,000 km's on my motorbike & changed the oil every 5000km or less when doing track days. Oil still comes out super clean these days & valve clearances were all within spec about 5000km ago.
First race of the 2022 F1 season, a great bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon open and a Tyrrel's Classic Workshop video? Perfect!
Thanks for another fantastic video, and as much as I enjoy the "road tests" my favourite part is actually seeing the "work around the shop" and hearing You and Your employees sharing Your wealth of knowledge and passion for these cars.
Best regards.
Seeing all the guts and internals of old cars is great, with no fake drama and loud mouth hosts, like we know who.
