    @daveclarke4265 Před rokem +5

    Use that Autoglym Interior cleaner on the steering wheel, it’s perfect for cleaning steering wheels. Spray the steering wheel generously and use a soft nail brush to agitate the dirt. Then gently wipe around it with a damp clean microfibre cloth… once it’s dry it will feel and look like new 👌
    You’ll be shocked how much dirt will come off of it

    Hi Tim. Wheels and tyres looking great 👍 Darren suggested doing the grille blue with white behind, that sounds amazing and would certainly pop. Also blue hubs would look insane. After all blue is your colour Tim. Le thim run with it, adds to the excitement 😃👌

    Wee tip Tim if youre worried about the mid lift rubbing through the wheel cover, stick a thin metal plate on the underside of the cover so when the wheels raised if it catches anything and spins it won't rub through, when I was on timber the boys in tags would do that as it was more of a problem for them with the tags clearance when raised

    Hey Tim, Loving the content in this episode and it was awsome see that V8 in action well sort of...till you get a trailer and do your first drop and that am sure will be an epic episode to see I can't wait. The choice of colours are perfect for this V8 scania.....but since your doing white and blue...what about pearlescent white and blue to give it that hint of blue within the white? Either way am sure you will pull it off 👋 (REALLY NEED A TANG EMOJI 😂)
    Today was my first day out doing my class c+e training 😁 Loving every minute of it, can't do tangs yet otherwise I will get funny looks from my instructor lol. Keep up the awesome work Tim, LETS GOOO

  • @maverickgoose3824

    Just look after it all ,and it will all reward you in the long run . Keep away from the kerbs and get to know all your trucks like the back of your hand . What a journey you are starting . When you put your name on that headboard and do your first paying job with it you will feel what achievement is . Carry on 👌

  • @kieronash5704
    @kieronash5704 Před rokem

  • @Chris-pt8df
    @Chris-pt8df Před rokem

    That Horn rocker switch on the dash used to work up and down to do either tone on the Horn's under the cab, probably only want's a new solenoid valve on it to get it working again, she look's loads better with a set of super singles back on the midlift again now as well

  • @nicksidell4797
    @nicksidell4797 Před rokem

    I’ve just recently come across your channel Tim. I’ve been there done it with the trucks. All the bullshit but do appreciate when I do See a nice truck still as I know how much hard work it is to keep on looking good. but I’m so pleased that you have decided to go white with a little blue, but it would be nice If you done the chassis as well. I know it will be covered but nonetheless it would be done and then just build on things as you go along keep up the good work. 👍

    @SGLastMileFails Před rokem

    Good on you, mate! Loving the new wheels & rubbers. I wonder if the Anti-Splash thing really works though. As soon as you get a chance, ceramic coat the wheels. On the insides as well, that'll help keep them shiny for a good while even in the winter.

    Hi Tim your tractor unit looks awesome with the new drura brights and the new Michelin tyres and with side skirts it's going to look real gem . I think painting it wet white gloss with wet gloss black trim on the front a big set of new high end lights and put a wet black bull bars . But it's your baby so do what you want it will look stunning when finished. Inside speck it everything scania v8 with huge sounds inside and big horns for tones goodluck Tim and just really happy for you as you are a sound guy

  • @dark_one1337
    @dark_one1337 Před rokem

    I would've put anti seize on those new nuts and the wheel hub,
    since they are Aloy on steel and when they start bonding, they stay on the hub even without the nuts.
    BTW. colours: the side skirts, fender and wheel liner in the front, the window trimm and grill Black gloss
    all the Chrome Blue and a Simple wave on the cab in blue and trim lines in the grill and skirt and fenders.
    Also white lightend Scania bagde and embleme.

  • @kevinfox5068
    @kevinfox5068 Před rokem

    I can't fault your enthusiasm, truck looks great, I'm constantly thinking of cost it must be eye watering, this Country is so different from America ,in England you are looked upon as a villain if you run any type of vehicle, they rip you off with fuel prices, insurance and road fund tax and in your situation you have to make a profit, I hope you get some really good contracts. Great video all the very best to you, good luck because I think you'll need it.

    @stevoone342 Před rokem

    Looking good. I would hate to see your expenditure so far and for Planed work though only it hasn’t earned ££££ yet. But it dose make sense to sort it before the o license comes thru. It’s mad the amount of hurdles and extra cost associated with becoming a owner op and the Time it Takes to do Must be a big turn off for some in the uk., compared to the USA all mainly depending on state you need is a truck license insurance own or rent truck and space to keep it and some state taxes you can sort within the day or week.
    All the best though and it would be good if you could do a few vids when established on owner operating to maybe advise or guide and manage expectations of what it’s like Pross cons
