Still trying to get the hand of editing. The parts where we drop the voice due to speeding up the video always feel empty without music. Would you feel it better to add music during this part and nothing else? Or no music at all? Thank you for the feedback.

Wow awesome project. Do you have any idea how much the engine rebuild will cost you from start to finish?
@Renault5Rebuild
@Renault5Rebuild 20 дней назад
I really don’t. It will depend on how many of the components need replacing rather than reconditioning. It a good idea though so might keep a counter going. 👍

Milwaukee FTW! Believe it or not, disassembling is the easy part 😂Next time I would start at the top though, hoses, cables and acillary stuff, easier to clear things up and makes it lighter to later remove engine from subframe.

Haynes? The first engine I took out (1975 so memory might be problematic) I thought I just followed Mr Haynes pictures in the book.
@Renault5Rebuild
@Renault5Rebuild 25 дней назад
Indeed we are following the trustee Haynes however this motor has a few surprises! We are also having to learn what each step actually means!

Don't forget to sort out the dodgy clutch cable routing
@Renault5Rebuild
@Renault5Rebuild 26 дней назад
Is the clutch cable a common issue then?
@Vampin88
@Vampin88 26 дней назад
You are kinda right in regards to the side repeaters missing but you will find they are most likely Renault super 5 wings that never had them to begin with! As far as the color goes I’d paint it back in the stock color it came with 👍🏽
@Renault5Rebuild
@Renault5Rebuild 26 дней назад
Wow! Thanks for the information, I didn’t know they had different wings.

The 5 is a few shades of red, the interior and engine bay I think is the original red however I always wondered what shade the exterior was! Thanks for the information!!
