Great vid bud always nice to see a fellow P38 content creator 😊

Looks fantastic Adam. Your video are great thank you. Regards your hvac, I've just replaced my passenger side blend motor, you can get to it if you remove the glovebox and airbag.

IMO one of the best looking cars ever made inside and out. I miss mine 😐

Looks great Adam. I need to do the same on mine. Been fixing slow eas leak on mine. I’ve had the dash out but I’ve still got the hevac warning book. I need to take the whole dash out again and sort the blend motors. Good job.

Please film it haha. I need dash help

I would recommend you use a lambs wool pad and cutting compound 1st up, than switch to foam polishing pads and polishing compound, but regardless it come up good

Very smart; congratulations on your stamina! I'm about to do something very similar on a P38, but the drivetrain and a lot of under-bonnet mechanicals/electricals have to be on worked on by someone who knows that part of the machine better than I do. I spent a few years doing the same process on a boat, finally owning a shiny and very lovely Fisher25. This P38 is going to take a very long time, but I've nothing much else to do! I don't have anything like the indoor space that you do, so the weather will be a factor.

I actually give mine a quick wash and blow dry after detailing to remove any residue before waxing,

Great job. Keep the videos of this and farming coming - really enjoyable to watch work being done to a high standard.

I recently did a polish on my p38 and it made it look better, need to replace the vac blend doors..... and the shocks but she's in really good shape,,, oh and somehow I need to get a new key made

Trying to get anybody to cut me a new key has been the hardest job yet for me.

the comet wheels you have now are pretty desirable I wish I could take those and replace my hurricanes

I’m a car detailer. You did amazing! Keen to see these new wheels… Mondials or tripple sport is my guess

I always thought it was a black truck, also you should out the badges back after detailing it will be satisfying

wow great job that must of taken ages , love it when black cars look like a mirror

He’s a very clever lad and a hard worker.

looks terrific for an old P38 damn nice job Adam! One small question , the rear muffler boxes look to be hanging very low..... are they original? they may ground out if you go up a steep incline. I had a 2001 4.6 HSE P38 20 years ago and I only saw the small rear tips of the pipes at the back not the entire mufflers.... are these rear mufflers aftermarket ?

They have been replaced at some point, but they’ are still factory spec mufflers

@marksoutherton8888

Definitely not factory spec, they are just a cheap aftermarket make. I’ve seen a lot of these on P38s for sale, the tail boxes should not hang anywhere near this low to the ground.

Nearside probably worse for scratches because of hitting hedges on country lanes. Didn’t you say you got it from someone local?

Good answer, yes they were roughly 1 hour away from me.
