We really need this show in the US
what is the music in 16:38?
C110 Skyline. Skip to the 10:00 min mark and it appears soon
whats the car on thumbnail to this video ?
I know. I hate American television. Americans are so stupid that they think all this scripted crap (like Pawn Stars, American Pickers, and all the auto restoration shows) are real.
Yeah all the restorer shows here in the US are so full of drama and crap like that. It takes away from the cars and the skill involved with reviving such beauties.
no i want a C10 Skyline even moooooooore i am living in the wrong country XD
lol ? never seen that before XD
i don’t think a 345 rear tire will do anything for handling unless you’re going in a strait line, that’s ridiculous
don’t know if you noticed, this video is avaliable in 144p.
Respect. I got all the time in the world to restore a car, but lacking inventory, knowledge and money xD Oh well, these vids always shed a little inspiration regardless of circumstance. Thanks for uploading.
I feel much the same as Tadshi Andosan. a classic car is just that and should be put back to it’s original configuration. specially the American Muscle cars if you can make them run faster and still keep the original look i don’t really see the harm in it but i still like the original way the cars were built that’s how they should be not modified and raced just put back to factory. Toru Ishikawasan is bad ass! all original all the time. wish more US restoration shops would follow that lead.
another lack of anwser to my arguments??? cmon kido u made it way to easy for me to win
come back to me when u think u found an example of CURENTLY (not in 1960s)made gm engine that is beter than any fords then i school and laugh u agein
and spare me your bullcrap about your neighborhood and how u think u can speak three languages,learn to stay on the point and im teling u that for the 3rd time cuz next time u tell me about your goldfish …stupid
These auto restorers on this video are professionals. It is so nice to see the pride they take in their work, and their great abilities.
I’m in the U.S. and here we just don’t see this much anymore.
and as your claim i am out of facts and know nothing i direct you to my previous comments where you have not been able to give a good return and answer. so until you have you, your vulgar language tiny mind and bad argument can go and be all pissy alone.
Yes you are defiantly at the end of you ability to argue. you have no other facts or arguments and because of that you have resourced to using vulgar language because your tiny mind cant handle being beat. one i am not an american i am a korean living in the US its a great place i have a great life living is a nice neighborhood. i know three languages and can speak them fluently if you are going to argue with someone in english at least spell the damn words…
Wow. I love the Japs. When they do something they do it very, very right.
Wish someone had a Sunbeam Rapier IIIA. Yes, they made rootes cars in Japan and so well that a Rootes engineer on return from a visit in 1958 warned his bosses that Japan were way ahead and that we, the Brits, should copy them.
Sayonara.
“getting to the end of your ability to argue” its u whou is out of facts and bitches about my speling
and btw how can u be that dumb not to check wher im from and be wrong even about that,when its 2 click awey
u rly are an example how stupid americans are,even considering u young and stupid
how wealth got anything to do with your lack of knowlage?
your parents might be rich and if anything u rly poor,unless u get 5$ for lunch…kido
“you can get any amount of power out of a motor when you put a supercharger”-
i dont think any one can has been more wrong than u now
and i love how u jump form engine output vs durability to single unit car and its handling
i caled u a retard cuz u not only wrong about every technical aspect but u cant be bother to check your info or mine for that mather…kido
u live in us so third language u cant rly do without
He said nob, but you said tree letters…There’s a difference between hitting the wrong letter on the keypad vs not knowing how to spell.
Manual work its wood
P.S. you still cant spell for shit, and using the old English isn’t my first language excuse. how hard is it to spell the words you its only tree letters long and using the damn space bar too. and i giggled when you said “fuck off nob” are you calling me a head of someone who’s richer than you? xD oh and context clues here you probably live in England, you use the word petrol and “nob” is english slang from the UK… have fun trying to make a counter argument!
well no crap you can get any amount of power out of a motor when you put a supercharger on it xD wow a 1050 hp version and what it only costs 180k oh no that’s so worth it! an ultima GTR is 110k and its one of the best handling cars ever made. wow you have down graded in class so much calling me a “retard” you must be getting to the end of your ability to argue… so get your head out of your pompous ass and look around! that’s fantastic! its not my first language either, its my third.
15:35 is my new dream car
Let me clarify, Dino was a brand and had no Ferrari badges(or Prancing Horse) it had the Dino badge, named after Enzo’s son. There IS a strong connection to Ferrari.
Engines were built by Fiat, designed by Alfredo “Dino”. Got a Fiat Dino… same engine as a Dino 246. Ironically, Fiat now owns Ferrari.
The first brochure described the Dino as “almost a Ferrari”. Read the Wiki on Dino.
Dino 246GT still are awesome beauties.
