Biggest mistake of my life was selling my HQ after spending 2years of my life building it. Brings back really fond memories watching your build.

*Sam Eyles has uploaded* Yes *built not bought* Yes! *hq first drive* YES!

Oh wow your brother sounds just like you in the opening sequence 😂

Hey Sam, Just something I did t my Tonner that was quite easy, you guys were talking drop tanks, but if your looking for an easy way to get more fuel capacity, a second OEM tank will fit on the opposite side with just a filler neck entry change, the rest bolts in & you have doubled your fuel capacity. Just thought I'd pass that one on. Love your channel, keep up the good work!! Cheers Steve Northern Rivers NSW

11.54, the look of hell yeah I just built this shit. Love your work boys, brings back memories of my first resto when i was 18.

In my late 20s I restored a HQ sedan. It was so cool. I loved it. Lovely to see such a gorgeous build.

I’ve always liked 1 tonners but I think I’m gonna start saving and get one and build it to become a beast

Yesssss matee omg I love it when you really give it to it that’s gonna sound absolutely amazing

My dad had a HQ back in his mullet days and it was good to see what they are actually like. Keep it up 👍

Nice Build good to see a young fella resurrecting a HQ love it

Advanced Drive Shafts, Ray and the boys there are absolte champs. Get alot of work done there. Good Stuff!

God I love a clean HQ! 👌

It sounds tuff! and the stance looks perfect

Another awesome clip Sam. Keep it up. I'm learning tips off you in every video. Cheers mate

Awesome Sam, nice build, Zach must be stoked.

Like. She's a beast. Well done guys

Top job . Always great viewing.

Please keep these videos coming dude

congrats to your brother mate would be an awesome feeling

In my opinion the best Looking Holden is a HG and HQ. HQ being the best looking Holden ever made. As much as i love style side Utes can never go wrong with a HQ One tonner

Sounds good and looking sweet

Consider the time your engine runs whilst vehicle stationary before this bedding the rings under load. The rings are going to bed during cam run in, more in a moment. The hone is not supposed to cut the ring, consider cast iron rings as opposed to moly etc, still going to cut? hmmm. All engines wear in mating componentry, that's why you do an early oil change to remove microscopic particulates or other contaminant ingress from assemnly. Mating will wear down high surface contact until median reached whereby lubrication then enables minimal wear over extended period i.e. years. This equates to fractions of a micron, if it's thousands then Huston you got a problem. On initial start up motor should immediately be run up to 3000 rpm for 20 mins to harden the lobes on the cam hence not grinding lobe off from binding on lifter. Good to see you checked ring gap but the oil ring carrier backing ring goes on piston a given direction. That secret is old school & you wont find it in a book. Good job though lads, nice to see these older utes back on the road where they should be. Cheers

First run drives end up in failing brakes almost everytime in my experience .. 😅

what engine is in her

How much does your patrol weigh

For a naturally aspirated engine, you gonna want a 2.5 inch exhaust, it creates the best performance. Any bigger and the exhaust back pressure is too low and you lose torque. Though 3 inch'll sound better

Who’s Ute is it

Hey Sam i'd love to see you and Jeff "Home Built By Jeff" do a collaboration or at least a visit.

you can use the it in floods the

Sounds like my land rover

That's a wicked build. Did he build the centre console himself or is that custom made by someone? Keep up the great work and hope to see more on this.
