This 12-litre Amilcar's V8 engine once battled the Red Baron 

*crash hat*

Juist Mills. In the Netherlands we have got a good name for People like you. STAKKER

@@HarryMollyNut theres africans born into privilege too. people of all races and cultures that are privileged. white privilege isnt a thing.

​@@HarryMollyNut🤨

If I had just an acre, with a garage, build an apartment on top. That's about all I'd need. Keep your massive houses. :D

I have a 3 x 3m shed with a workbench and my moped i work on. I hsve JUST enough space to work and can barelly turn my ass to do something but when i enter that shed all my problems are gone.

Kristian Jonsson , truer words, my friend, truer words! Cheers

@@HarryMollyNut And there you would fail mate, because among the wealthy, are bloody knuckled workers that are scraping by. I am one of them

well, some men live in the big city where a shed is hard to come by!

@@HarryMollyNut ~ You may or may not be surprised, but I couldn't agree with you more. I make the remarks that I do, regarding these old cars because I have been a gear-head just about my entire life. I love physics, etc., so different ways of mechanical motivation have always been interesting to me. I don't have two nickels to rub together myself, so its not like I'm one of those rich pigs. I just like their toys.

@@therainforest4314 yawn.

@@email4664 ~ Better stop reading what bores you then, you cretin.

@@HarryMollyNut : Yes, this is the sad imbalance and injustice of the world we live in. Hard to understand and even harder to fight.

@@HarryMollyNut I've got a suitable name for you, but RU-vid policies don't allow me to post it i think.

@@HarryMollyNut I know the word- It is Shitbird troll

@@HarryMollyNut : Mr.Marx & Co tried to eliminate that mistake in the human condition with the help of a system called communism. As a result, you have a Chinese totalitarian system with a rich "nomen clatura" and less rich millions of tightly controlled poor folks. The North Korean system is even worse. Does this help the sub-Saharan Africans? Humanity seems to be unable to eliminate that problem of birthrights. So we invented that beautiful fairytale called "from rags to riches." And in many cases you forget about the rags and start off with the riches!!!

Yes, but then they get dirty hands.....

Don't worry we are stil here

Not all of us. Been working on old cars for years now. Built my 54 Mercury from a mechanical wreck up to a decently driving car. The big downside is just the price of the cars these days. I cannot afford most of the cars I like

We're still here, my mate is 20, a massive steam fanatic and owns a traction engine. He's a wonderful metal worker and fabricator. I'm also 20, just bought my first car, a Triumph Herald, so starting out in the world of classic cars. And it's something I'm learning from and learning about. And most importantly, I'm learning from and asking people like Tom Walker (the chap in this video) for help and advice. There are still young vintage and classic enthusiasts.

The Oliver Pickard mine is the packard bentley, but i like de fiat s76 as well

the brutus is quite similar as well

Extremely easy cars to fix or make parts for

Do you know which airplane/s used this engine? He doesn't say in the vid.

Hispano-Suiza 8 12-liter V8 300hp from 1915.just wiki it ,there is a huge piece on it.

27 litres of V-12 aero engine would be a bit much for this tiny Amilcar chassis. At 845lb dry weight, the Liberty engine probably weighs damn near as much as this whole car...

The spad xiii used an Hispano Suiza engine, Spanish, not American.

Btw the Spad wasn’t the fastest fighter of WW1.

Absolutely. The tops of the mags must need a coat of wd40 at every stop if it's raining.
