Fixing Everything Wrong with my Cheap Nissan Truck 

William Chow that’s what I thought too.But he got a good deal with the moulded liner!

@@CRN8091 The added benefit would be to cover up all the bare metal and rust after it is cleaned

@@williamchow1624 you'd have do deal with the rust first

c1d2e this is what I wanted to ask. There was clearly enuf bolt there if he could try that other thing that looked like a drill head

More than a tack, a big snot of mig weld would do it.

its on the plans for this truck

true on both being common

ha ha, yes, "Navarra-virus" will be the next Panic-demic.

LOL it wouldn't surprise me

Cheers Kurt, much appreciated

I'm in the same situation, after painting the house, staining the deck and polishing the cars I'll be pulling my hair out trying to find things to kill time.

Im trying to keep the content flowing for you guys

I really like this truck and project, its a lot of fun working on it

i enjoy working on the navara more than the Ferrari's

honestly I hadn't been too one since the 90s myself .... i was like a pig in SH@T

Ratarossa haha I bet. The good old days

ill check that stuff out

Cheers Thomas

agreed .... I really enjoy fixing up something that has been neglected and transforming it

Mr Bagins they only buy them back if they snap, if they just have holes in the chassis they get sent to Spain to get a new rear section stitch welded on! I work at a Nissan dealer and did the recall on them! Also if the chassis is ok it should get treated!

yes well aware of this, mine all looks good, i will be putting a scope down the rails for full inspection but also treating them and welding some strengthening plates onto that bad area that commonly fails

Tim, I honestly enjoyed working on this more than the ferrari stuff, its so much easier and not to mention much cheaper so I will certainly be doing so others like this in future

good tip, ill be doing that

@@Ratarossa Welcome sir! I was thinking I might offer you a shelve system if you hit Ratatouille with a few coats of lacquer. There's some new guys painting on the YT that just started but do a bang up job. Alfa loving Neil at italia auto does a beautiful job. I found his channel because I love the Alfa Busso V6!!! I want to do a radical 156 GTA with more torque on the turbine Busso 3.0 10k rpm and a haldex/saab cross drive awd out of a 9-3X. 700hp with aforementioned turbine to smoke Giulia. I'll be a quadrifoglio as well. Dreams....... Alfa 155 v6 ti take a listen to a Busso v6 at 12,000 rpm! Short short stroke and huge pistons. Only in F1 now, undersquare with baby pistons is more efficient. I think the AMG 6.3 was the last big bore space motor ever squeaked past the bean counters. In a 4.8 liter configuration and pile of "good" custom or dlc coated parts it could spin up to 11k 😍

yes I remember, lovely car. I used to have an electric blue Renault 5 Turbo and it made me think of that enjoyable era. Lets hope we get another redwood uk soon.

cheers Robert

Cheers ....great idea

Ratarossa Do it - would be brilliant viewing to have a running total of profit, and days it takes you... Hunting the bargains, cheap cars, prestige, classics and Ferrari’s - how much money can you make? Would love to watch that...! ☺️😉👍💪

lol

love it

im looking for a cheap roll top for it ...no rust will wait for a second hand one to appear

Its on the to do list .... have been waiting for the weather to change

4 or the 6 were snapped in the bolt shaft and access to them was terrible ....plus they were seized solid as were the truck bed ones ....cheap bolts

friday afternoon car, thats what i call them. I had a 355 like that once, everything went wrong in it

i did that the other day, it was pretty caked up

Ratarossa have a look at the pro vent catch cans.will help with keeping the EGR clean.

I did my research on the lack of power and it all pointed to the actuator (slightly different between the euro 4 and euro 5 engine) as one of the high possibilities. the easiest test was to squeeze pipe and rev the car, if its working correct it will pressuize the pipe and force your hand apart ....it didn't, which indicates the actuator is faulty. The mounting issue with the bolts was most were snapped either flat or inside the bolt shaft which would have been impossible to weld a bolt onto, especially given the limited access. They were also cheap bolt that had seized solid.

love these cheap fix hacks

Its always fun fixing stuff up and getting cheap bits ...shame these was no Ferrari's kicking around there

@@Ratarossa When I was younger I was into Corvettes(19), Pantera, 328 & 348 Ferrari and now putter around in my '99 SL500 and have to pay to get things fixed, in the shop at this moment.

no mate its all off in the day

@@Ratarossa Smashing,top man ! Love the videos by the way. Thanks for replying. Regards Q.

LOL

do you have the brand 'Brabantia' in the US ? I just ebay searched 'Brabantia latch'

thanks Malcolm

@@Ratarossa adding that would be good another interior wash for everything that remain :)

LOL, i might have filmed that at college

3000 pounds .

bren70sss s Wow, good deal, also jealous of the car collection. Cool you make videos about Ferrari maintenace, a big help for owners I think. So they don’t have to spend gigantic amounts on normal maintenace on their car.

LOL

I looked into those, was going to buy one. Then figured out my solution is free

@@Ratarossa Free is best!

Think he said it was at college?

No charge, i'm at college night school learning to weld, so used the truck step as a class project ...... cheap workaround

Missed that. Good luck with the studies

yes thats the plan, i will be treating it and reinforcing it .... just a little tricky at the the moment with everything on lockdown here

@@Ratarossa Yeah, Ok. Thank you for your reply. Regards and stay stafe!

it was disgusting ....had been there a while

It definitely is!

it is A1

Ratarossa how I haven’t seen your Ferrari’s around I have no clue. Binge watching your videos your like 5 minutes from me aha.

It's the oil change reminder light. It's usually reset at oil changes by the dealer or stealer and you can Google how to reset it...

its A1 breakers in Wokingham

Heid Gandreiter the rat looked more dead than red I’d say!😂
