Hi Mike, SE6a's did not use wheel spacers from the factory.
Thanks very much for that, honestly. Something that I’ve been thinking about for the last ten years! The wheels must be so narrow normally!
@@Tyresome 6J x 14 as standard.
@ChorltonTim indeed. I’ve got the stock steel wheels (they’re supposed to have the fiberglass hub caps)
Yes!! Scimi evil points have been turned up to 11 😎
Still nowhere near as cool as your Capri!
Hope you didn’t get paint on your good jorts! 😋
Regrettably those shorts are now in the bin 🥹
Fucking hell Mike why didn't you just pay 15k for a proper paint job!!! Car looks shite!!! (love the car)
😂😂😂
Imagine someone in the future restoring the scimitar, and sanding back through all the textured finishes 😂😂 I’m surprised at how far your cans go and how sh** that bed liner is! Rescued by upol. Concentrate your efforts on welding up the supra during the summer months and getting some paint on the bare metal before the winter 🥶 Excellent video as ever!
Definitely! Tim and I shall be cracking on with that! We’re printing the patches as we go 😁
Looks great mate, although I do miss the pink.
Lmao! I did try! Shame they sent me blue!
Looking Good Buddy
Thanks very much! :)
I had an old school daimlier at 19 in champagne gold , love my jaguars as did my old man
Lovely stuff! Can't go wrong with them. Especially at the low prices these are at nowadays!
@@Tyresome and you deffinitly cant beat a dirty v8 , i would have straight piped it
@@Tyresome low ish lol
Nice fix mate, no reverse lights though, not making the switch?
No idea mate! It wasn't until watching this back I realised they were dead! xD
Drop A 3 Litre V8 In The Old Girl 🍠
If the engine stops working for whatever reason something like that will be on the cards for sure!
Congratulations on the free fix, the best kind 👌 the clutch works but the reversing lights don’t 😬😂
The brake lights don’t either 😂 I only found this out when I looked at this footage! 😂
@@Tyresome 😂😂
Love it 👌😂😂 In my old j reg townace, I once shouted at a bloke that tried to drive round me while I’m waiting for oncoming traffic… can’t you see my effing brake lights!!! The answer was No! Whoops🫣 No brake lights 😬🤦♂️😂😂
@MrMiniac lmao! When I was driving my dad’s Riley I had exactly the same issue with the indicators! 😂 Even with these issues i would change the cars for the world.
Turned the evil up to 11 💪
Yeah man! More to come too! 😁
Bilge blower fans work well for heater motors. They just about fit in situ and will work ok off the existing wiring (switch speed doesn't work that well, kinda on or off). They're about 30 quid for a pair. Seaflo brand I used 130cfm 12v ones , might be good to use bigger ones if they'll fit but 130cfm are ok.
Oohh thanks for that! Good tip! Shall have to check them out 😁
You’ve finally made it into my algorithm Michael 🎉
That’s lovely! 😍
I didn’t know your Dad was Bill Oddy?
Bill Oddy is famously a fan of cars and combustion engines in general 😆
Look forward to seeing all the black shiny bits going on. Shame about the camera
Yeah man! Gonna look killer! These things happen! Shall be fixing it myself too, time to learn how to do that too!
Eek.
Can see the potential mate, look forward to the next episode 👍
Thanks man! Onwards and upwards!
What a beautiful thing 🥳🥳
Getting there!
Still like the olive green more 😂 #generaladams
Lmao. Maybe next year!
I see you went for some black paint streaks on the shorts to offset the purple streaks.
They call me the black streak
@@Tyresome nice to meet you black streak, it’s is I, Brown streak.
The train from San Andreas!?
That is 100% a colour choice you have made! :p Nah, looks good man :)
Thanks boyo!
Should look nice when finished
Thanks man! You'll find out today!...Ish
I actually hate prep, watching you do it makes me happy its not me doing it 🤣 Bye bye purple!
It’s the worst! 😭
Fix the arch! The bed liner will cover any sins
I know!!!! Maybe next year xD
Less of that! It will take a nights work. Plus you get an extra video.
@@scottb926 It’s VERY low on the list of things the scimitar needs 😂
@@Tyresome GIVE THE FANS WHAT THEY WANT!
@scottb926 Hush yourself small child
Curdles - like Baileys and peach schnapps 😂
Ye olde slippery nipple
@@Tyresome over in NI the slippery nipple was tequila rose and baileys.
@scottb926 tbh I don’t even know what goes into a slippery nipple. Aesthetically it’s gotta be similar though!
this pain(t)s me XD
Very clever! xD Thanks for watching Fun!
I got mine started the other day :)
Oohh nice! Did it put up much of a fight!?
@@Tyresome had to strip out the old alarm from 1980's which was a F&%KER. then it was tracing the important stuff to get her started, it fired up good and sounded silky smooth but there was a vibration at 1500rpm+ and kinda struggled to stay running, i adjusted this & that but finger crossed she'll be good soon.
@Soulvex lovely stuff! Are you thinking fuel or ignition?
@@Tyresome fuel/setup i reckon m8. when it's "ticking over" If i put my hand over the carb and restrict it a bit it revs up a few hundred rpm and smoothens out. once I can get it stable it can have an italian tune up lol
@Soulvex I do love an Italian tune up! 😁
I hate sanding bodywork! Getting the new paint on is going to be so satisfying though - good job on the prep work 👍
Yeah man. The sanding and prep is SO tough. Glad its out of the way now though!
Some hard work done in this vid. Got a feeling your going to be happy with your end result as the sanding back will boost the chance of a better finish as you know so well done and fingers crossed hey 😊
Thanks for the positive vibes and for watching! 😁
seven months is no where near cured for oil based paint, needs to come off or apply compatible paint over top , been following since first handpainted it !
Lmao! Next week you’ll get to see how wrong I am! 😂 Thanks for watching 😁
@@Tyresome Oh no!, Ok back in the day, when cool pasteI shades were the trend I painted a vw beetle in vinyl emulsion paint, it actually looked quite good ,with a matte/ semi matte finish it hid a lot of faults, lasted a lot better than imagined it would and that was on a metal bodies car, beauty of it is if you do it over a guide of primer it can be removed ok without contaminating the primer also rollers really nice or could spray it nowadays with electric sprayer. Sorry for long mesage!
I won't miss that pink 😂. I quite like it as is, Definitely better.
Lmao. It’s not done YET
Never mention the sub count, it's the golden rule :p
It’s true! 😂
Nice job gentlemen! Tim knows what he’s doing with the welder and fabrication… keep him topped up with bacon sammies 👍 Happy to donate to the Supra build 😎 I’ve sprayed a Nissan Figaro bonnet with rattle cans in my garden before. Buy yourself a cheap gazebo that has side panels and you’ve got an instant spray booth. Mine worked brilliantly but i did get a tad light headed 😂 Good weather should be around the corner 😎
You were right! The good weather has arrived! Unfortunately no gazebo for my spray painting though! 😂
Well this was very satisfying! I've been checking daily for a new Tyresome video, and I know there's reasons and I wouldn't expect... But I have been eager and I enjoy watching you make progress on your Tim, I mean, watching Tim make progress on you... Depends which way the innuendo is flying that day! More Timota Supra? He's wonderful, and I know how much more productive and fun a car day can be with a friend. It's fantastic to see the progress, but also to see your joy in doing all this. You sounded even happier than usual. I love that. I also love that you can be happy even if something isn't perfect, because you have tolerance and you know it's gonna be fun regardless. I wish you could bottle your enthusiasm and positivity, I'd take a truckload. Absolutely love your videos and your genuine, honest, lovely personality. Thanks so much for this one!
Awww thanks Aaron! Making progress feels so good! It’ll be on the road in no time!
Polishing your aperture in public.... FILTH.
Surely you can kit out Tim! Do some advertising g for the new SWAG!
You’re not wrong! He’s more on camera than I am!
Those inside patches are the best to practice on! Pull the finger out 😁 You have a wonderful voice for narrating 😂
@scottb926 I mean that’s basically all I do in these videos! That and desperately find bits to do on my own 😂 I just love watching Tim work!
Sure the neighbours love the public spray booth.
They adore it ❤️
Paint some penis and the council may send out the cleaners. One way to get rid of oil stains 😅
Fairly sure that's a triffid mate, be careful, it will eat you 😲. Nice to see the holes getting filled in.
Okay. I’ve been thinking about this for hours and I don’t know what you’re referencing 😂
@Tyresome your probably a tad young mate, triffids were an evil killer plant, was an 80's bbc series. 🤣
@@davidretrogamesplayedbadly3533 I did a Google and found that out but I didn’t understand how it tied up with this episode! 😂
@@Tyresome the plant growing under the glass trim 🤣
@davidretrogamesplayedbadly3533 ahhhh I seeeeee
Good Timing.
Why thankyou
Could you provide the link of the type of fuel pump used and where you got it from? Thanks!
It was the one from PNM Lotus www.pnmparts.co.uk/lotus-elan-m100-fuel-pump-A100L6047S
That's terrible 😢
It is. Testament to Panasonic though. The camera actually worked for the rest of the shoot AND all this evening too!
Ouch! Thank goodness for the contents insurance to ensure you can make more content!
Bit of a testament to the camera….it still works! I managed to carry on recording and it was all good! Just didn’t have the screen! And my pride was destroyed a little 😂
Bloody hell, that's not great. 😢
It’s not too fabulous 😅
Covered under home insurance? 😅
I hope so! I think we’ve got contents insurance up to 20k including accidental stuff so hopefully that’ll sort it! Not that I’ve ever had to claim on insurance before!
@@Tyresome you’ll be covered then. Doubt your renewal will be effected if you hardly use it. Your pay for it. That’s what it’s there for.
Just found out! They’ll cover it but there’s a £350 excess. Still better than thousands though!
@@Tyresome can’t be bad to that. Wouldn’t be covered under warranty? Remove the video and claim it came damaged? 😅
@scottb926 lmao! I’ll do it by the book I reckon! 😂
Silly sausage
The silliest!
having owned a Elan for the last 5 years i love it and been great so far and done 52k miles in them 5 years and trouble free motoring
Lovely stuff! Super reliable really. They did so much stuff right with the M100
@@Tyresome yep i picked it up as a project car 5 years ago after it had a blown head gasket and just needed bits of body work doing but for 2k i was not going to say no as not any other way i would get to own a lotus but been a great car and taken it to Nurburgring 2 times over them 5 years as well
@@mrchilled85 so good! Lots of boot space for camping gear too!
Where did you purchase your Tim: The Ultimate Cutting Machine?
He’s like the terminator but for body panels!
The Elise looks like a great laugh 😁
Was a ruddy goodun my bey!
Looks like a good day out 😎
It was indeed!
