Home Built Hot Rod (Full video build)

[Home Built By Jeff]

Well I have been away in the US for the past few weeks, and while I was there I dropped back in to Performance Developments so I could bring home some bits and also give you all an update on what is going on with the engine.

This week I have finally made an attempt to clean up the garage. I also make a DIY 'Ultrasonic'ish' parts cleaner, and I start tackling the oil lines.

This week I spent most of my time trying to remove the brakes. What a headache. The dust cover for the front wheel bearings is a real pig, but I found a great way to get them off.

Hello Jeff my English is not fantastic but I want to say to you that I really to enjoy your videos. I am to commencing my project 8 weeks ago and not really have too much progress but feel more motivated after spending lots of my Saturday evening watching your videos after the discovery on this forum. I like the moments of fun facts with mirses Jeff too.
I keep in mind the tip with U clamps when the time comes to take my wheel bearings dust cover off. Good job sport (it's Australian language yes?), and thank you for sharing your problems and real life solutions.

Thanks guys. Good luck with your project prolo. Another interesting Fun Fact, is that Mrs Jeff lived in France for several years and speaks fluent French.

Magnifique, she is of many talent. I put a special request for a "fun fact" en français next week!

This week I show you one of the worst ways to remove a stuck fitting in a brake caliper, and then I rebuild the brakes.

In this episode I am being reckless around my old Porsche RSR build as usual, and this time it doesn't end well...

Aagggh. Tough week. Two forward one back and all that.

Pi55er.

Might not feel it but you are making great progress. Lots of great stuff there. Keep the faith. This bit's always the worst - feels like it will never end...

Thanks mate. It is all repairable, it just sucks creating all that extra work for myself

We've all been there!

I drilled through a tunnel fuel line mounting a hidden switch. Car was finished, all trimmed. Of course, It had a full tank of fuel didn't it!
