Project Discovery // Part 4 - Boot Floor Completion 

Thank you Geoff for motivating me to start eating healthier, exercising, and cutting back on the booze, so that I hopefully live long enough to see the end of this daily driver project

That sassy fan tail is hilarious lol

Love to see more work on the not-a-project!

better than factory job on the boot floor, i'm really enjoying this series about a vehicle thats not a project :)

Those pumps do go AWOL if left standing, check it is pumping, before going down other rabbit holes. Great videos, and if this is not a project... You have gone down the classic route of all major rebuilds.

Great stuff. Turns out I have the same model creeper! They’re made by ikea. And Panasonic, and Target, and Hoover, and Westinghouse. Oh, Coopers also make a compact version…

Yet more proof as if it were needed that Mr Crocker is a comedy genius, the unexpected Fantail comment caused a genuine belly laugh.

What concerns me most is how many other brilliant RU-vid channels are there like this one that I know absolutely nothing about? I believe you said your last video was your longest? Please don't let long videos get in the way of frequency. Post stuff like taking out the garbage, meal prep for Sunday dinner, driving to the dentist, etc. I'll watch it all. I promise.

Love the videos. Just to say this is a proper Landrover restoration, it is done in the rain, just as the motherland intended….. 😅

I seem to remember that the boot floor on a discovery is a consumable 😊

The one video channel I never fast forward through. Outstanding job on this. Loving this series

See that's a true friend right there, finding comedy in your mates physical misfortune haha

You had me at "good luck when you get some on your foot & walk through the house."

We should all chip on and buy this guy a proper creeper. Like, triple layer cardboard with some nice flame stickers and a crayon drawing of Trogdor.

best non driving stand alone boot floor repair in NZ 🤣👌

When you started this car, I thought today would never happen. Well done, I am seriously impressed.

Love a CROKER restoration video. Very satisfying work done at the rear there, make sure the rear door and seal are good so they don’t undo all your hard work!

Such a small thing. But something that makes your videos just a huge step above the others. Is your audio. Just having your voice so clear and easy to understand while you work about, makes such a difference!

I love how you verbalise everyone’s internal dialogue when performing the same activities

You've done a good job of the rear floor

That underseal, I've made a mistake of not wearing something on my head (long hair) when spraying that stuff... love the videos!

Never watched your car stuff much, but Jesus its good, flown through both series. Fingers crossed for the next one mate.

Just discovered this recently and it's the perfect not-a-project to watch while waiting for Soup Classic Motoring and Project Binky to update. The humour and narration reminds me of Nigel Billingsley our of Jumanji haha. I have always wanted one of these Discoverys but after watching your findings so far, scares me off. I love the choice of background music that keeps sounding like it's leading up to some major scare but suddenly stops, perfect comedy timing! Subscribed so I don't miss the upcoming year(s) of fun!

Great job on this project.... @ 8:00 "I'm trying not to let this quick repair get out of hand...." Heh heh heh! Ohhh Geoffrey.... Oh my. It's already way out of hand... WAY out of hand.... But, that's why we love you. That's why we're here.... And, the angry face you throw on the screen sometimes.... but mostly, it's because when you do a thing, you have a real knack to over-do the thing....

Love your videos, always a good day to see a new one drop! For your fuel problem, you don't need to crank the engine to get fuel pumping. When the key is turned to 2, the fuel pump runs for 2 seconds to pressurize the system. You should hear the fuel pump whirl away if you kneel back by it. Alternatively, you can pull the fuel pump relay and make a jumper wire to hot wire the pump till fuel is flowing. Can't wait for the next video!

Excellent work on the boot floor. The disco has the same light switch stalk as an Austin Metro, brought back memories of learning to drive.

The fantail stole the show 😂

Good job Sir, looking really good. Geoffrey: note to self, next house has a big flat driveway...lol Thanks for the share!

Just did some fuel line replacement on my pontiac, hot water softens the rubber lines..😉

Loved the video, keep them coming. - I fractured my tail bone recently incredible pain. incredible pain relief from the doctors. Hope your bruising heals quick.

I've been waiting on the edge of my seat for a month! Thanks! Hands down the best D1 Recovery Video on youtube; an inspiration to all of us. I just hope you finish this before you get a major TV Network deal.

I'm sorry, but this is turning into a project! And, OMG, you used your kids kindergarten art projects as a garage creeper, in the rain! 😱

Started with a boot floor better than most UK discoverys, ended with a boot floor better than land rover ever made

It’s a Rover V8, of course it’s a different problem…. Lovely work on the boot floor!

Boot floor and mudflaps: 👌💯😍 Rest of the car: Not so much.

we need weekly updates your videos are always interesting informative and light hearted

Hope all is well after the storm.

Priming the fuel system before turning it over is always helpful. ;0) Boot floor looks awesome, good skills.

I used undercoat procedure from Dinitrol that was painted on with compressed air. First was a base layer of oily "cavitywax" more like cavity oil, and topcoat of rock protection. Endresult was awesome and has been held well for few years now. before i used some cheap stuff that you painted on, and every year i had to apply more as the old stuff started cracking. Only mistake i did was the fact that it really does get everywhere.. should have covered the whole exthauspipe and outside of the car.. cant figure how the undercoat got to the roof and sides and glass if i was painting from the underside lol. spend more time washing the paint and glass as the end result

This is a great non-project. 👍👍

Fantastic fix on the bout floor 😊She will start buddy 👍🏻 Rain 🌧️ just like Manchester England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 lol 😆 Looking forward to seeing the next episode 🤩

You legend!!!! What a great way to start a Sunday ❤

Loved the episode. Looking forward to the next one!

Ok wow that floor looks amazing. Also, the rage making an-almost comeback a few times there just had me rolling. Love your humor! And holy crap you were able to get the tank installed by yourself!!!

Always a joy to watch

Best sealing up with Sikaflex 221 or Tiger seal, tape up like you did, the brush can be dipped in thinner or panel wipe if a smoother look is required. Looks really tidy now. 👍

Good work Geoffrey! "Get a Toyota"... Stupid bird.

“I’m about 10% ibuprofen” I felt that lol

Very much enjoying this “not restoration” series! 😊

I'd never go near a project like this... But I enjoying see you knocking it out of the park.

Geoff the fan tail made me crease up with laughter, I would love to come round and give you a hand but I live in Dorset England. But we do have crappy cars and rain in common, keep up the good work this is the best channel on the tube! ps dont be so tight and buy yourself a car creeper!

It's a subtle detail, but the sound design in these videos is really excellent

WOW that Fantail has a great sense of humor.......

One of my favourite non-projects on youtube!

Great job! I share your pain with doing everything by yourself when a second set of hands just to hold something in place or hand you something would make all the difference in the world. Even the most colorful of choice words don't help in those situations. I wonder when you'll get back to the Defender... 🤔😂

Boot floor looks amazing!

Good work on the “definitely not a project, honest” disco.

another great video geoffery, i remember those fantails when i was in NZ in the early 2010's keep up the great work mate

Every time you post a video, I feel like I stumbled upon a Christmas gift my wife bought, hid, and forgot!

Memories of me doing this (reinstalling a fuel tank) to my sigma ... many, many laps around the sun ago.

Great video as always!!!

Great episode!

Great stuff.

Brilliant stuff, as always.

I remember being able to roll around on the ground under vehicles. Just watching you do it now makes my body hurt all over.

Another great video.

Really enjoying this work! Keep it up.

These are lovely and all, but I miss the Series III project! You're so close!! I need to watch you make progress so I can continue avoiding making progress on my own!

Love your videos, Geoffrey! Thank you so much!

Another awesome video thank you

The fan tell made me audibly laugh out loud. Bar none, this is my favorite channel. Thanks for this content.

Been a while. Happy new year. Good to see you back on the job.

16:00 Rage Guy is back again 😅 Love your content man 🥰

Legendary as always!!

I really look forward to your videos. Keep up the great work.

That fantail is a genius 🤣

That part with the fantail had me roaring. That was hilarious

Didn't Ford own Land Rover (Jaguar Rover) around the time that fuel connector was put on?

Mate you deserve more subscribers lmao your editing is great

Great update 👍

Love the random commentary/talking to yourself! Great video!

Bravo young Man. It's dry here in Wellington.................nah

Great vid!

Nice progress, well done! I really like your videos. Cheers from Poland!

YaY! handtoolrescue recommended you and ive seen yr entire library on both yr channels about 3weeks ago and been hoping you would bless us with new content :) what splendid way to relax and watch yr new video. Thank you!

amazing video - thank you!

Ah yes, that daily driver will be perfectly restored to factory condition in no time!

Nice work! I feel your pain doing a million plug welds. I replaced the floor pans and trunk pan in my project. I use an end mill bit in my drill to remove the paint in the plug weld hole before welding. These bits have a flat end and easily remove the primer/paint that's in the hole. I use epoxy primer instead of weld-through primer. Amazon has the bits for pretty cheap. Just match the bit diameter with the hole diameter.

Respect your skills.

Love your vids!! Super inspirational! Such high level of quality finish.. Ive got the same combo going on with my 96 disco1 and a 77 series3 88inch up here in Auckland. Youve shown how it can be done right. Cheers.

Love it!

Look fantastic good job 👍

I'm loving watching this project that isn't a project 😉

Awesome work, I don't know how you could improve on what you've done there fantastic. And once again a very entertaining watch

Nice work and as allways nice style of video!!

I caught myself holding my breath while you tried starting the Land Rover. Then I realized, one always does it when trying to start a Land Rover, well I do.

loved the fan tail

Really enjoy your videos, glad I live in an area where we don't seen to get that much rust.

Love these videos

As a guy that owns a p38 Rover I am really looking forward to seeing the interior freshened up! Great video, soon your son will be old enough to help you sling parts back into cars!
