You have rebuilt the Argo in the way it should have been done from the start. Very nice work. Thanks for sharing 👍.

👍💪 it needed 2 more bolts 🔩 than I've got laying around the garage! Would've had to make another trip to the hardware store! 🤬

Loved your editing trick on three minutes fifty seconds. Thanks for letting me being a part of your workshop life.

Estonian man can fix/fabricate anything from a hunk of rusty metal and sweat. Foiled by headlight and rubber grommet/gasket. LOL j/k You do amazing work! Keep it up!

Поспешай не торопясь..)) С наилучшими пожеланиями..!))

There is a special place in hell for the people who decided to have the headlights fit like that!

I really enjoy your content my friend. Please keep it up.

Приятель Donn DIY, я тобой горжусь! Я с удовольствием смотрю твои видео! Мне, как технически образованному человеку, очень приятно видеть грамотно организованную работу и исходящий результат! Желаю удачи в техническом творчестве!

Donn I hope in 40 years I can still watch you create, build, and restore stuff. Really enjoy it, thanks for sharing.

I have waited so long to hear you say it again and you did not disappoint! Thankyou for sharing with us. 😁

Good ol M6, never fails brother. Keep fighting.

126 bolts , always enjoy your videos 👍

1:27 I would recommend putting a metal strip behind, which runs over the full length of the plastic piece, so the load can spread better to the plastic - and if you put pressure on the plastic railing, the metal can support it.

Thank you for sharing always a pleasure watch your video 👍👍👍👍

74 bolts Donn Great video mate really enjoying the whole process Cheers from Aus

Great videos, as always, really enjoyed this series! I say 82 bolts around the edge

Awesome work, I love watching your videos. I have one suggestion - because you left the negative cable so long, it can short to positive side of the battery when someone will unscrew the negative terminal

That's true.

" Hammer Persuasion ".........we call THAT fine adjustment !

Just a heads up. Since the haul is made out of fiberglass, if any of the through bolts/nut holes are suspect bad, you can always use polyester resin and fiberglass mat (CSM and/or 1708 or such) to build up any enlarged hole. And even reinforce the holes to make them more solid and hold perfectly. Just an idea... Thumbs Up!

You can clean up the rusty stains inside that Battery box with Watered-down Acid meant to clean a swimming pool, or Full-Strength Vinegar, or tub and Tile Cleaner for a bathroom - it will take all the gross orange rusty stains right off the black Plastic or Gelcoat Fiberglass

On that railing repair; It seems another piece of tubing, even pvc, inside the faring, instead of washers, would have increased the strength and rigidity, especially if it ran full length of the affected area. Thx for sharing the project

Amazing effort and great quality video. That must be around 98 nuts and bolts on the shell flange

Grommet installation of lights can be a pain in the butt also the back

Hello Donn looking good well done

Those. New threaded inserts are a big improvement.

It's coming along nicely, good job 👍

Its coming along very nicely !! Very nice work !!👍👍

Great job my friend

You certainly have patience, I might have (definitely would have) thrown those lights across the workshop 😂😂 Another great video, as always thanks for sharing

awesome work.

78 bolts, great work!!

Got it going your way now Donn, looking really good and waiting to see it at work and play soon. Stay safe and keep up the fun too. Fred.

great work as always 96 bolts

Cant wait for the final part! When i counted correct there should be ~95 bolts holding this monstrosity shut

The ignition switch looks like from a tractor mower Could be cheaper to find Pretty good videos as always

Well done my friend!

Always interesting! My husband and I guess 132 bolts. Keep up your great work 😉

Very enjoyable as per usual.

Great job. Love the series. My guess is 108 nuts and bolts.

Great video

Great video DONN 👍👍 my guess is 150 nuts and bolts.

I could imagine, before you fixed everything, it being "Hard Starting" but that key is ridiculous!! 🔑🗝🙈😦

Excelente trabajo y gran vídeo!, muchas gracias por compartirlo!.

the time ive invested in watching has been well worth it, looking forward to the finale 👍 also my bolt guess 110

Great work as usual. I always look forward to your posts. My guess is 120 bolts.

Love it keep it up as always 💘

Those holes might have been for a canvas top. To answer you question it is about 109 anchors to join the upper body and lower body.

Realy nice work love your videos

Like a Glove! 200 screws.

124.5 , use silicone spray from Lidli, helps always.. 👀

Fantastic work 👍👍 My guess is 109 bolt for the marrige off the body 😊

Thanks! 👍💪✌

I guess you used 110 bolts, great job!!!

Probably 84 to 90 bolts around the outside, 14 to 15 bolts each end & 28 to 30 bolts each side it appeared to be at a guess.

Super! Danke! 😍🤗

thank you ...

Have fun with your new vehicle there donn dyi

Near as I could count from here it looked like 126 bolts! 😁👍🏻

Hello, fantastic job restoring this baby ;] My number is 109 Cheers Donn!

Awesome job as always Donn and I’ll say 65 of the stainless bolts. Lol

if i had to guess as to how many bolts that sand with it together ,,,it would be about 96-98 bolts in total ,,,but its my guess. im planning on getting one for my trapline . iv admired your videos for quite a time now Don . keep up the great work

My guess for 10:30 would be 80 in total, all the way around the edge.

125 is my guess awesome video as usual

99 is a nice round number

My guess is 100 bolts ! Nice work !

I could walk out to my 2008 argo and count how many bolts for that edge there is but that seems like cheating so im not gonna. I work on them all the time.

The key looks fine to me 😂

Nice progress! That's an impressive key you have there. Someone really must have wanted to get it started. My guess is 92 bolts. (If I'm right - which I doubt - let someone else have the plans, I'm just guessing for fun).

My guess would be 89 bolts 😊 Nice job!

142 - great job

All of them!

15:11 Кто-то очень сильно хотел его завести, но он не заводился😂😂😂

94screws Always good content from you

My guess would be all of them

She’s looking great as far as how many bolts I’m gunna say 94

Nice work! My guess is 84 bolts

As a Non-Ambassador for the Canadian people...... I apologize for the headlight design 😂🇨🇦

It'll Be Fine! 🤣 I had a 1973 Skiroule. The coils "broke down" and I didn't figure it out until after I sold it. When it was cold, it ran like a Polar Bear and had awesome traction. Best sled for early 70's. Sachs 440. Plowed right through deep snow, uphill.

Love your work. Thanks for the great content! I never knew I wanted an Argo until I saw your channel. Lol! That Argo strip sealant looks to be identical to 3M butyl strip caulk. Also, why not new fuel line?? 😮 I guess 86 bolts.

@DonnDIY

I didn't have a proper new fuel line at hand. The used one looked still okay-ish. I hope I don't burn it down.😀

It seems like the idea for the device was not bad, and more often than not engineers worked on the development rather than managers, but they still produced it as cheaply as possible...

About 80-85 fasteners to hold the two pieces together.

105 bolts to seal top and bottom together

145 bolts and nuts around perimeter

I'll say it took 81 bolts to clamp the two halves together :)

I suggest a motorcycle ignition switch. One off a Harley or similar that doesn’t lock the steering. Or possibly a ride on mower as a car switch won’t live long.

147 bolts to join the two tubs together.

Love the Series! Im going to guess there are approximately 104 bolts.

I hope you don't forget the bottom clamp on the filler neck. 106 bolts

327? I have enjoyed this build. Would love to get one.

LIKE A GLOVE

82 Rivets for the Body ;)

I like to watch all of your projects and like the rest I've enjoyed this one too. Especially when they get you to go to silent mode. Does that mean you are using words that are shouldn't be heard? My guess for the nuts and bolts used is 144! Nice going you're doing well rebuilding the Argo.

I'd venture to say that there are approx 125 bolts in that upper/lower body mating surface.

Wow 84 bolts seems like alot.

My guess on surrounding body bolts is 75, I guessed 8' long X 4'-6" wide, multiplied xyz and came up with 300"devide by bolts every 4", only took me an hour. But if this Argo is in metric my math might be slightly off and require some recalculating, trouble is I dont understand metric math..... So when screwing around with that headlight for 2 hr, ever wonder how they installed it at the factory in 2 min, well maybe new parts go together easier, but form I'd end up using a hammer, then new parts............. PS, You left a deep scar on hand rail at the bend, pant always multiplies imperfections, I just hope I dont loose sleep about that...........

Beautiful build with almost 114 bolts 😅

avanzando

@ 15:12 That's what happens when de bloody thing doesn't start 😀

156 of nuts bolts and on, double that if you used 2 rings .. so 156 or 312. 🙂

112 screws around the perimeter
