      Has nick blackhurst performed his first bodge job!!!! Panel bond to fill an aerial hole???? Couldn’t have just welded it up, ground it back and tack welded the mounting bracket for the interior light bracket? I know metal has a tendency to warp when welding but surely a man of his caliber knows the best ways to minimise this???!

    British electronics tend to work really well in the "off" position, it's the "on" position that usually gives one trouble.

    • @EvilGTV
      @EvilGTV 5 ปีที่แล้ว +33

      Absolute nonsense. I can confirm, as the operator of both fine Italian and British machinery, any perceived trouble with electrics is down to operator error. You see, the wiring systems in these vehicles is entirely powered by random number generators, ergo expecting any given thing to occur upon operation of a switch is a complete folly. Sure, the RNG does appear to be biased towards spectacular pyrotechnics and/or crushing disappointment, but that's the nature of random events.
      PS. If upon operation of the headlight switch, the headlights both come on AND sufficiently illuminate your passage, don't bother buying a Lotto ticket - you've used all of your luck virus.

    With binky tantalisingly close to completion I decided to recap the whole build, seeing so much of the work I overlooked and realising some things, like the flip front and the radiator were do-overs that I wasn’t ever aware of
    Last night I treated myself to a BOM hoodie but I feel that’s little reward to you guys for the hard work and the entertainment your provide

Little did I know that the build was still on going. Keep up the great work gents. This is gonna be one bad ass mini once you're done.

But oh, we have a spoiler, a notification that brought i big smile to the face, as opposed to the latest flatulence from Trump, “Project Binky”. Thanks guys, what a great start to the day, I especially enjoyed the “one hand tan” funk. This has inspired me to get out the tig and finish the aluminium tank for my cafe racer. Happy days.
