We lost our house in the floods , still living in the bike / car shed to this day , good to see you where safe .
Hey Mate sorry to hear about that. It was such a random event. No one seen that one coming to prepare.
onya mate what a milestone!
Shiiiett, such an unfathomable volume of water. Glad to see the project stayed safe and sound on higher ground, hope the rest of the neighbours and community are recovering well.
Congrats on the first drive! Must have given you chills. We're edging ever closer to the same point, first drive in ~13 years. So exciting!
Thanks Mate. Was a great feeling that for sure. Even though it was just drive it out the shed it still felt so good to drive under its own power. Will be looking forward to seeing yours drive
That colour gets me every time! F@cking well done mate, you've nailed the whole build and the attention to detail is super satisfying 👌👌
Thanks Mate. Appreciate it :)
Perfect time to weld up a quick lil rail and practice those K Grinds.
Great stuff Sam, I got goosebumps when you drove her out of the shed mate can’t wait to do the same with mine.
Look forward to the finished product Cobb keep up the awesome work👍🏻🍻🍻🍻
I had to laugh at "auto sparkies", before I retired I was in structural, mechanical and piping design and we referred to the electrical group as sparkies. Cheers from Tomball Texas. You are certified OCD, you are a mate.
Absolutely bloody awesome mate!!! Glad you stayed relatively dry and the tonner is still coming along! 👍👍
Thanks Damo. Whens the next episode of the Tonner?
@@ShenkeGarage haha. Next question. Hahaha. I’m ramping up. 😉
Looking good sam, cant believe ya got jamie to do a cashy lol
Absolutely the best trip from an enthusiast with minimal experience progressing to an accomplished fabricator. But, there is always a "but", the steering is on the wrong side. Cheers from a yank, Tomball Texas. Oh just to gaff you a little bit, dump trucks have sides.
Wicked to see it move around under its own power. Always such a good feeling. Glad ben was able to help you out
Thanks Craig. Ben is the Man
Coming along well, Keen to see it finished 👌
Thanks Mate. Getting close
I'd never get sick of looking at that, I love the colour. man it sounds tough.
Cheers Sam. Your doing that ute justice. Congratulations mate!!
Awsome job man just finished watch the build videos about to start my own hz Tonner just up the road in Hervey Bay you have giving heaps of tips and ideas for my own build, can’t wait to see her finished keep up the good work
Enjoy that beer bud! 🍺 bloody splendidly done
Oh wow that dash cluster looks awesome
sounds killer shenky good job mate
Thanks Mate
Have been watching your vids on and off for a while now and have enjoyed watching. Your Ute looks really good man 🤙🏼 great work. Has changed the way I handle my projects and my attitude towards it.
Thanks a lot mate. Appreciate it
Aww Shenke!
I had a smile on my face the whole time I watched that.
I remember the beginnings bro 😎
Loving your journey man! Love yer work!
Crazy weather there, stay safe! 💪🏼😉
Thanks a lot Mate. It was definitely a cool feeling and a big milestone
Looking great
We’ll done
Thanks for sharing
Great progress 💪
Awesome job mate. Loving the stance. Hope to see it at Joe's diner one day.
Bloody choice as bro... Looked so Mint driving with no windows bonnet tray. Well done,must be real exciting for you.
Great work👍I started my wb same time U started but U advanced at a much faster rate it's fantastic what U have done. Except ford seats.
Haha coping a bit of shit about the ford seats haha. All good. I like them and once they trimmed hopefully wont tell they ford
lets go shenke i love this vid
Looks great so far. Suggestion I would paint the aluminium brackets that hold your electric radiator fans on black too
It moves hell yeah
Awesome to see the Ute moving.
Can’t wait to see it when it comes back from the trimmer.
Same Mate. Im excited too....
Subbed, great project
Thanks for the sub!
Movement under its own power :)>>>. Big step Bruv !!!!!
Great job as always Sam. 👍🏻
Glad you never got flooded out. What suburb are you in?
I really feel for the people effected by the floods. Take care mate.
Finally got to drive the beast, way to go. Coming along nicely. What is going to happen regarding the respray?
was a great feeling. Thanks Mate. I will re paint the outside. Got a couple of plans to do this
The time it takes the PS pump to spool up might have to do with the wiring. My understanding is that the black wire should see 12v on ignition and the blue/white wire should see 12v on start. If they are both wired to see 12v at the same time, it’ll spool slower. Only my understanding as I was researching this pump for a build. Please disregard if I’m totally off base.
Great build
Is there a episode about the dash switch blocks
Nice who sells them
The tonner is looking great. Its getting there.
Thanks Mate :)
Hey mate love how your tonner looks
I’m doing up a HJ tonner and was advised to make a two piece drive shaft do you get any vibration with your one piece
So good Sam 💪 can’t wait to see it back from the Upoholstery shop, and that dash is 👌
Thanks Mate. Yep im excited to see get it back aswell :)
What’s happening with the paint work is it all sorted now? Looks killa mate lov it 👍
Hey Mate. I will be re painting the outside at some stage
Hey bud love your channel..... how did you make your headlight buckets..I've got the same lights going I to HQ premier.. but am stumped.
Awesome vid mate. I like the headlights, don’t recall seeing them in a episode. Where you get this. Ad Boys from 👍
Actually, I remember now 🤦♂️
Another wicked vid mate.
Thanks Mate
Battery set up looks neat, nice work Mate..
Thanks Mate
Like you enthusiasm and your ideas but I’m an resto mod guy….only my opinion …..but the original gts dash is one of the best dash’s in Australian automotive history…the one in your car wouldn’t have been my choice but we are all different I spose
.My sons hx one Tonner has all the fruit and is finished with class without getting too far from the brand ….although it has a fuel injected 304 with a 4l60 but his tray is framed in stainless steel with wood and stands out ….worth considering?
There’s a few short videos under my name on CZcams
At the rear it has a stainless drop down bracket on each side that mounts flush with the frame end crossmember and mounts the 3 led strip tail lights …tasteful without being Gordy …..I’ve seen some shockers of taillights on one Tonner
Good luck with your build but I think traction and brake balance might be a issue when you get it on the road .
Looking great mate
Thank you! Cheers!
I would love to know the total cost of this build as you haven’t missed a trick. You have done well from start to go. That colour still amazes me. Great job bro
He did an episode a while back where he added it all up minus labour. I think he came to a figure of around $170k..? Sam will correct me if I’m wrong there.
go back a few vids dude
@@paullang1961 must have missed that one, cheers
Hey Mate yeah I done a video around end of last year to finish up the year. Parts came to roughly 75K I think from memory. By the time its finished I would say parts would be 100K
Hey Mate I done a cost breakdown in an episode at end of last year. Its called wrapping up the year and Q&A. All the details in that :)
Beaute job mate, what tray top you gonna go woodgrain or alloy?
Thanks Mate. I will make the frame out of steel and put alloy on the top and blend it all in and paint it same colour as the car
I’ve enjoyed watching the build It’s turning out a treat, I’ve done a couple HQ’s full ground resto’s my self but I’ve never done welding though other than arc I reckon you should do a clip on welding for beginners
Hey Mate thanks heaps aye. I am not a qualified welder but I could do a video on how I do my welding. Will see
@@ShenkeGarage I guess just a basic run through for beginners
Hi have you hidden your brake booster, or are you not using one, keep up the great work.
Hey Mate. Deleted the booster and running a wilwood master cylinder
Is the engine and trans a g.m. combo?. Looks like a Pontiac .? What is the cab, etc? Aussie vehicles are different than American vehicles.
I noticed your rear accelerator pump arm on your carby is not in the right position. Cool Build
Hey Mate. Thanks for the heads up. I will check this out. Are you able to give a bit more info?
@@ShenkeGarage At 10:44 you can see the arm on the secondary accelerator pump is not under your adjuster spring. Look at your front bowl and you will see what I mean and compare it to your rear one.
Coming along nicely Sam, hope your doing well and the family mate floods are so bad, stay safe take care cheers KC Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝🇦🇺🇦🇺😎🙂✌👍🏁🥇🏆
Thanks Buddy. Doing well and thankful I was not impacted except for power outage
@@ShenkeGarage ok cool great news cheers 🍻🍺🇦🇺🤝🇦🇺👍😎
Its going to be one sic tonner love your work whats next for shenke garage after the tonner is finished will there be another build ?
Thanks Buddy. That is a good question. I have a few ideas but nothing is clear at this stage. Im going to need more room for another build
Nice 🤙🏻
Thanks! 😁
Good to see your back at it looks Orson
Fill for the por buggers that got flooded I'm not looking forward to wiring up my hj
Yeah Mate unfortunately there was a lot of people got flooded :(
Any chance you could share a link of your wiring harness. Have seen a couple of "Easy Harness" , it's like to be pretty decent
www.enginemaster.com.au/ez-wiring-21-circuit-wiring-harness-ez21-with-stan
This is the one I used Mate. No complaints
@@ShenkeGarage thanks mate. Keep up the great work.
How good does that feel
I know how you must of felt from my own experiences in my younger days 😃😃
Felt so good. Just wish I could drive it further
@@ShenkeGarage it will love to show you a photo I have of how we drove an xy gt we where building in the mid 70
20 lite thinner drum for seat
But felt great just hunning down our street to keep us motivated 👍
Looks fucken mint mate
Hey Cheers Man
🏆Enough said🏆
I don't see any benefit in having a separate switch for the fuel pump. Why not just wire it all through the start button? Same for the ancillaries. Surely better to have the the lights ? wipers on stalks?
Yeah it probably would be better but this ute was not built with practicality in mind. The fuel pump you can also leave the button on so when you ignition on it will start pumping. The ability to turn it off can assist with diagnosing etc as you can turn the engine over without it starting.
On the final stretch mate ,she's looking mint . Are they the wheels that are going to be on it ?
Thanks Mate. I was going to run those wheels but I think they need updating to keep with the rest of the build. Im thinking something black and chrome....
Is that a non boosted master cylinder
Look at getting something like that for my son XT if it is
And what do think about it
Cheers
Frank
Yes Mate booster delete. Seems to work ok but really need to take it for a decent drive to see how it performs
@@ShenkeGarage
Thanks mate
@@ShenkeGarage I've got the same setup on my hz sedan, you'll love the brakes, you will use a little more pedal effort if your using the standard clevis pin point, but you'll be able to stomp on them with confidence they work a treat
@@holdenkingswood
Can you suggest a suppler 👍
@@frankbartolo5223 castlemaine rod shop mate, they get a great deal direct from wilwood, so it's cheaper to go through them then it is to buy direct from wilwood with shipping
Better late then never
