This is everything I wanted wheeler dealers to be. Working honestly, in detail with explanations. None of this nonsense where the car makes a profit even though you can see there’s a tonne of undocumented work. Really liking this channel, Edd. It’s great to see you on screen again. The blend of mechanical knowledge and production quality is brilliant. Here’s a top tip and a cheeky nudge at new Wheeler Dealers: when you’re putting wheels on a Renault 5, make sure they’re on straight before you rattle gun the nuts on and spin a wobbly wheel!

I found a top tip purely by chance. I married a beautiful Thai girl, and as a bonus she has very small hands. She can easily reach into those really difficult tight areas around the car that I struggle with.

Really enjoying having Paul play a more active part in the show. He's an encyclopaedia of car knowledge!

Paul should have his own youtube channel where he just sits, reads practical classics and eats biscuits.

Edd great video,and very nice to see and hear from Paul. Another very knowledgeable and interesting individual.

Paul works so much harder than you - all that magazine reading. No doubt he is paid ten times more than you😊 Very minor top tip:- when removing lengths of tubing, wiring or whatever, consider attaching a strong piece of string to the remote end of the part. As you withdraw the part it will pull the string through so you can ensure the replacement follows exactly the same path - you might even be able to use the string to help pull it through.

So happy to see you and Paul back together again Edd. What green gloves no orange. This is much more technically interesting than wheeler dealers was.

That Mustang looks better every time I see it, beautiful.

I've never seen a linear power steering valve before.... I love the way its function was slowly exposed as you dissembled it... actually easier to understand than the rotational ones that came later....

Great having Paul back in the shop!!

Such patience and dexterity from such a big man! I'd have lost it after ten minutes!!!

Great to see Paul on with you again edd,would be great to have more of the team again.👏

Paul's a little gem, isnt he?!

Nice to see Paul again!

Hi Ed,It is so good to have you back on our Tv again its been to long and even better you have your own show. I was watching the latest show on my iMac and noticed the picture was soft I had naturally thought my computer would show it in the highest resolution when I checked the KZread settings it was in default 720P! I have moved it to 4K and the quality is amazing. Worth mentioning as other people may have the same problem. Can we please have some sporty Fords especially Cosworths and Cortina's It would also be fantastic to convert a old Ford to electric as that is what many of us will be doing. Top man . Thanks. Martin.

Watching Edd work is like automotive Zen. 👍

You could at least get Paul a cup and ball to play with. Your chats together with Paul are brilliant!

Top tip: To avoid cross threading bolts/nuts or screws: start by reversing the bolt or nuts until you feel it “seat” and then tighten. It basically finds its own threads for you.

Hello i love your show. He renovates my cars himself . I'm from Poland, now I'm finishing assembling Honda Crx 1990. I also have a Datsun 280 zx 1979, the car hasn't been used since 1995. I've already started it, but I still have a lot of work to do, greetings from Poznań

Answers to viewers' questions in a duet with Paul. This is it!

It’s great to see Paul again He was so undersold on WD

You are actually repairing things rather that remove and replace....impressed!!

Edward you've brought back some ancient history for me. As a young lad I was in the employ of the US Army at Ft. Knox,KY. I had a 64 Comet, which shares the same crude set up as the Mouse-stang. Not only did mine leak, the previous owner had it part and got the reassembly wrong. I left a large stain out behind the barracks, but after two or three assembly's, she was fit for duty.

The Comet and the Mustang were both based off the Falcon. Also the 67 Mercury Cougar was based off the 67 Mustang's upsized platform.

Spoiler! The message @18:14 reads: "Far be it for us to pass judgement but while it is clearly important to keep abreast of the cut and thrust of cutting rust out of old classics, it is surely more than a little ironic that Paul is practically doing nothing while perusing one of Edd's old classic issues of PRACTICAL Classics magazine! Speaking of which; old Edd has written some classic words on Workshop Diaries for the December edition of Practical Classics and Paul is bound to love catching up on everything that has been going on in the workshop while he has been busy reading an old magazine!"

Thanks, i couldn't quite stop it with my tablet to read it as it flashed on the screen.

I seriously can't believe you gave Paul such a challenging job to do, Edd. Poor guy must be absolutely shagged out after all that hard work he did.

This episode right here, I believe is the reason he left wheeler dealers. The inner gubbins of a power steering system are quite interesting to see it being rebuilt. It's a fiddly job but still something an owner can do at home. I never knew it was even possible. Thanks Edd.

I love seeing the older cars being kept up because they certainly don’t build them like they used too😁😁👍👍

Great Work. Bless you Guys for keeping the OLD Classic motoring along. TOP TIP: after catching a glimpse of Paul putting in the fluid, the old Fords take Ford 'Type F' Auto trans fluid in the power steering system. Something about the properties in the Type F fluid help keep things proper.

Absolutely brilliant having Paul back! You two make a great team together

My old mustang was a 69. With the 302, v8 and had 4 barrel on it. It was a nice car. But the power steering control valve. Was infamous for leaking fluid. I had to replace seals 3 times over. In the years I had the car.

The talking with Paul is absolutely brilliant.. i hope it's going to be a permanent addition to the show.

Brilliant that after all these years that we finally really hear from Paul ,fantastic

Sterling work from Paul. Hope he wasn’t too exhausted 😀

Finally, a voice to the man. In WD we would only see Paul help in the background

So strange to hear Paul talking.

This show has a nice balance between professional production value, educational builds and the casualness of blokes hanging in the shop. While it's not as spur-of-the-moment and 'live-action' as some of the other channels, it still feels more relaxed and relatable than a full blown TV program. Should have more subscribers!

I noticed some simple ways to disassemble and to reasembale parts by using tools that hold an item in place that otherwise would be a pain to hold in place. Also to remove a hose from a connection by using an socket extension rod is something I've never thought of. Simple but does the job so easialy and spares scraped knuckles. As alaways I love seeing someone doing what they can to make a car component work again. Keep these videos coming Edd and company..

This is my weekly treat and without fail.you deliver Edd and now Paul. Please keep.doing what you do.

@32:25 Ah, the days before planned obsolescence when you could actually grease all the front end parts I had a 1990 D250 Dodge pickup with 210,000 miles on it. I had the front end religiously greased every 3,000 miles and never had to replace any front end parts or have a front end alignment done because of uneven tire wear. I had one set of tires last 72,000 miles. I miss that truck.

"How many ways can my Mustang power steering leak?" My guess would be a few more than the number bends in those two 20cm hard-lines. ..someone certainly had a BIT some fun designing that :D

Such a entertainer and good mech I like the way he goes the extra mile to describe how he strips down and rebuild the item good show Keep calm and carry on

Workshop Diaries make a great start to the weekend! Production values have reached a sweet spot - great close ups of detailed sequences and background music at a minimum (which makes the other WD nearly unwatchable for me). Keep up the great work!

Your loft-lounge area is looking great now, luxurious! You know where to find Paul when he has "a few things to do".......

Just great to see them together again and at least this time Paul speaks a lot more .keep it up lads

I honestly enjoy watching your channel.Reminds me of a time when something leaked or was broken.Id getting shop manuals to learn how to rebuild certain power pumps such as power steering and other major car and 4by4 jeeps.Because that was the way at least I learned how to work on my cars and trucks year's ago.Seems we live in a throw away world now a day's.Growing up getting a shop manuals was the way we learned how to fix our vehicles.Thats what I love about the 60s and rely 70s vehicles no computer's were needed unlike today.

Unfortunately, manufacturers make parts nowadays that aren't repairable. When I had my RV business, I rebuilt 12v power converters. There were parts available and even a manual that you could get from the manufacturer on how to troubleshoot it. Then in the 1990's, 12v power converters were all electronic with circuit boards. You had to be an electrical design engineer in order to fix them and on top of that, they encased the circuitry in resin that is impossible to remove. Supposedly in the name of protecting the converters from moisture...right! Anyway, it was just another step towards being a parts replacer rather than being a mechanic.

Would Paul be interested in writing a book ? Or even a podcast about his time on these TV shows.i bet there's a few stories and behind the scenes information that would interest a lot of us.

Proper imperial spanners this week!

I had an Avanti II with the same steering valve. One warning, be careful when you hook up the hoses between the valve and ram. If you cross them and reach through the steering wheel to start the car, the steering wheel will smash your arm as the wheel slams from one side to the other. I was warned and it saved my arm. I really enjoy your show, keep up the good work.

I look forward to this show every week!
