OH MY GOD! I KNOW THIS CAR! It was owned by my grandparents back in '78 when they moved to Queensland. They bought it off a good friend who bought it new. I know it's the same one because of that exact tach, I helped install it. In '97, my grandfather passed, and my grandmother sold the car to one of the people she went to church with and moved back home with us. It's great to see it again after all these years, even in its current state. EDIT: Thank you for all the likes and replies. I don't know anything that happened to the car after it was sold, and my grandmother passed a few years after that, so I can't ask her about it. We no longer live in Australia as we moved to Canada back in '03. I can't give any more details as it wasn't my car and my grandparents aren't here to answer any questions.
Do you know if the engine has been replaced? These engines were made like legos and zillions were made. It's fairly easy to swap. They're also indestructible so it's entirely possible the 50+ year old engine is still in there.
R10s sold here in good numbers. This looks like a R10S ...also available new in Australia. So was R8, R8 Gordini, Dauphine and Gordini version...before that R4 Renault assembled Citroen's like DS here also
i mean its not like he never swore he swore many times he just cuts it off before it but you can put it toghether and rilze it aldo he swore in one of hes videos 4 years ago
He said "shit" in one of his iPod videos a few years ago. I think it was the battery test one where an iPod was saying it was higher percentage on battery than it actually was. He said "It's full of shit" at some point about that one
Dubious Australian car! In the mid-1960s, Renault Australia was set up in Melbourne. The company produced and assembled models including the R8, R10, R12, R16, sporty R15, R17 coupes, R18, and R20.

The crank start “I’d love to break my wrist” comment is no joke. There’s a pretty infamous story in my family about my grandfather breaking his arm trying to start his car in the 1930’s and then going to work anyway because he didn’t want to risk loosing his job during the Great Depression. He ended up getting the bone set during his lunch break. It’s crazy how dangerous cars were back in the day!
And this week on Nugget Gear: Wade brings an old nugget in for restoration, James attempts to drift an old Holden Monaro, and the 1st annual Cashies Crap Can Championship.
Having weird unexplainable sh*t on your French car: tradition as old as time itself. Wouldn't be an issue if the cars were still build to the same standard as this old girl and not absolute dogs*t since the 1990s
nah... onetime hospital worker. I've seen worse. That's just the morning after a humongous bender where your body has, for some reason, decided it's still going to try and filter stuff out of your blood even though there's no water left.
The greatest nugget rescue of MY life was recently our newest cat. We found him hanging out outside, and named him Nugget, after the many nuggets you have showcased!
Funny enough my grandpa was talking with a lady in town as he picked some up. She didn't think it was a real name and he joked that she was right and it was called "Start ya Bunny" but he ended up showing her the can and she was shocked.
As a French guy, I have to say that I loved the "Antuane" name, and the fact that you got a 10! Even here in France it's practically impossible to find. If you need some parts to be shipped to Australia, you can hit me up!
They sold a fair few of these in Australia, they came in as knock-down kits to the Heidelberg factory in Victoria and I think might have been assembled alongside the Peugeot 404 and 504's- I think they also had another assembly plant in central Sydney NSW as well but can't remember exactly. My uncle had a Renault 8 which was quite a sporty little car once you tuned them up but these are getting VERY scarce in Australia now.
The only reason I (Canadian) had ever heard of Renault was my mechanic Dad’s book of emergency car repairs that he insisted I own. The heading for “sharing out wheel nuts” (if you lose them at night while changing a tire, for example) mentioned that Renaults and other small European cars often have only three so they couldn’t safely share. 😂 …The book itself was printed in the 80’s, so even though my Dad never owned anything newer than 1992 (his car when he passed in 2017 was built in 1981 and it was an absolute nugget!) it’s lonnnnng out of date. I remember finally getting a car made in this millenium as an adult and going “What?!?!? FUEL INJECTION?!? AIR BAGS?!? THIS IS LUXURY!!!” 😂😂😂
@@petersteen4014 "3-stud lug nuts. It makes a wheel change very simple" Yep because the extra 2 nuts on most cars wheels turns a wheel change into a super complicated process. 🤣🤣
the good part is that, because it's kinda modified, you have no obligation to keep it stock so you have free reign to modify it further with more random parts
If there's one car where there's obligation to make it mint and reasonable, stock or not, it's this one. Sadly, seeing the state other cars are in it's going to be a long journey.
I didn't know I needed to see an extremely enthusiastic Australian fellow get excited about every detail of a Renault 10... But I did. And I also know that whenever I find myself with a car like this I do exactly the same thing... and get excited about glass jars, lack of rust, and the story of where the car must've come from. The thrill of the hunt, but also of discovery and sadness, and happiness.
@@Chrixz1 They do like their vinaigrette though. Also my actual plastic washer bottle seems to have got yeast in it because any fluid i put in keeps turning into vinegar, at least by how it smells coming out of the nozzles vs when i put it in.
It’s so funny how the car basically started screaming for life as soon as it started to get the attention. The nugget was basically begging to live again
My dad's first car was a Dacia 1100, which was a Renault 8 licensed copy, made from original parts but assembled in Romania. It was the same style, almost the same shape, almost all the curves are there. Engine at the back, trunk at the front. The engine was bulletproof and only had one issue. The radiator was at the back and cooling on it was subpar. Also, one major drawback was the cars tank was under the back seat and it was leaky as hell. I remember one time my pants got really wet from it. Almost fainted from the gasoline smell. Boy, this brings back memories.
I don’t have much interest in old cars as my own hobby, but I love nothing more than hearing someone get really excited about a new project. One of my new favorite videos from ya! The excitement and joy was contagious.
That engine was used here in Brazil in a model by Renault called "Gordini", which is the successor of the Dauphine. Also, we have readily available parts for this engine, but it would be probably easier for you to import parts needed from France
That's a really cool fact, didn't know that. All I knew is that the successor to these, the Renault 12 was produced later as the Dacia 1300 when it was made in Romania.
The fact that newer cars Wade has dabbled with had MORE problems than this is actually insane. A little fiddle with wires, rinsing a fuel pump and BAM it works. No weird coughing to start, no plumes of smoke from the exhaust. Man, at some point, this was taken care of (and also absolutely thrashed and tinkered with). Defninitely a worthy addition to Wade's nugget army. ALL HAIL FRENCH TONY
Man thats even cheaper than the 84 subaru gl 4wd 4spd wagon I just picked up. But to be fair it was $1000 and came with an entire complete parts car, parts transmission, and parts engine.
If you go far enough back in time most vehicles were like that. If you didn't move your arm out of the way in time the crank would turn over with the engine and break your arm
No, It has ramps to keep the crank from "keying" to the pulley and pulling your arm with it once running. you can see it in the video. It's very hard to hurt yourself with most crank starters, only the oldest were slotted.
I think I know the reason why there were pieces of woods inside the car. My grandpa had a Renault R4, and those cars had no way to secure lock their windows, so he used a piece of wood on each window to lock them from the inside whenever it was parked, otherwise, anyone can slide the windows from outside the car. Given that the R4 was released after the Renault 10, I think this car has the same gimmick, and it's safe to say that the previous owner used the same method to lock the windows.
Man, one cannot simply not love Wade, he's just an absolute unit of a loveable lad. It is great to watch him be excited for something others viewed as garbage. 2:50
You know whats insane someone else cared enough about this car at some point to source a replacement door and its cleaner on the inside then outside that never happens
My new favorite nug. This screams " some ones dads project car he cherished that they inherited and sent it to the bin because it didn't mean anything to them" what a majestic find.fix it!
You probably won't ever find this out, as you'll never drive it at night, but those headlamps are proper Cibies, and were one of the best headlamps of their day on a production car. As far as I recall the 10 didn't use the H4 base, but the P45, and you can get P45 halogens to fit. 99% of them were fitted with the crappy tungsten filament bulbs, never upgraded to halogens, and the owners never realised what they had. When fitted with a halogen bulb, these headlamps really deliver, provided the reflector is still in good condition.
I bet what happened was this was someone's grandpa's project car, he passed away, and the car was hauled off to upullit because the person who inherited it thought it was an old piece of junk
This display of French soft power warms my French heart. People always say that Citroën did things wierdly, but Renault did them wierdly and made money of it!
I love how not only is it nuggety from its new parts but even some of its original parts just give off strong nugget auras, like strapping *glass jars* to the inside to store things like coolant. Nugget by birth and by modification.
I'm sitting here at 8:40 listening to them talk about how surprisingly good everything is and I'm just getting flashbacks to the free car and the $20,000 nugget waiting for something to be horribly wrong
1967- Summer of 1971, since that's actually the facelift model. They came with a 4 speed manual, and either a 1.3 or a 1.1 engine. Made about 50hp. In the UK, There's 1 left. 1! Also 2 years ago in Aus, these went for about 12k when clean. In Australia these seem to have a small but loyal following
Nice save! Only situation which I think makes sense is if the owner past away, and whoever inherited it didn't want to deal with the old car sitting in the yard or something. Either way, really looking forward to whatever you do with it. Really wish we had some of the weird nuggets you guys seem to have in Australia, here in the USA.
This reminds me of back in '91 I was given a 1970 SAAB 99, the car came with an additional engine, the original Triumph/Ricardo slant 4, 1750cc with a D-tronic Bosh fuel injection, in the trunk and backseat. The PO had shoehorned a 1973 EMS 2.0 liter into that lump. The most amazing thing was that car was absolutely straight and rust free, a 4 door with the powder blue factory paint. Not a hint of corrosion. I fixed it up with a head milling and new head gasket/ new shims for the bucket and shim lash adjusters. It was a jalopy in Cartalk speak, but a ripper of a dead stock looking sleeper with the EMS's hot cam and D-tronic injection. It was supposedly 110 h.p. out of a SOHC 8 valve, which for it's time made it much faster than any of the Volvo 144 series cars it was competing with. Loved that car. My wife and I drove it 2 weeks after getting going and tagged, to California in July in the heat of the San Joaquin valley for a couple weeks. Did not overheat or miss a beat, and embarrassed a group of young guys in an early Turbo Volvo wagon on the Siskiyou pass coming back.
Splendid! Absolutely amazing! Kind of feels like someone's old project car that couldn't be worked on due to lack of time, no one wanted to buy it, so it had to be scraped. Well done on rescuing it! Enjoy the french nugg, from my experience they are the crispiest of them all :)
Kay, deadass, I think your penchant for rescuing old cars and your fleet of oddballs pleased some kind of ancient deity. Cause that car is damn near mint. Someone loved that car. And now you get to love it too. That is so sweet, actually.
The moment I saw the 3 wheel lugs I knew it was French. Even up until the early Smart cars (designed by ze Germans but made in France) they were still doing 3 lug wheels. I've owned a few old Citroens that did the same.
Renault Kwid stills uses 3 lugs wheel nowdays. In the past, some cars from Ford (based on ancient Renault models) use this style of wheels. Search for Ford Corcel I and II, Belina, Del Rey, Pampa
Greetings from Canada! My dad had a 1970 Renault 10. It was a great little car, even in the winter. With the engine over the rear wheels it had good traction.
I love this channel so much. The infectious, giddy energy and excitement you guys have for these nuggets, rescuing one from the salvage yard. Reminds me why I love cars.
Likewise. Shock and surprise, but of a joyous kind. And it's like karma for all the work put in to saving the other nuggets that probably 90% of anyone else would have, albeit still sadly, had to consign to scrap.
Cant wait to see its rebirth on the channel. These are amazing vehicles. A good friend of mine imported on to the USA under the 25 year law. Restored it and is now just having a blast. Finding the parts is a strange experience 100%
the fact that this old busted nugget has a far better front trunk that every singly Thundercock SUV "truck" is both peak comedy & a depressing reminder of enshitification
@@md_vandenberg I'm not making a joke, i'm sating a fact & funny enough it does apply to both as Gas SUVs also have pathetic cargo space compared to older real Pick ups
@@Artista_Frustrado I fucking LOVE cars that have STUPID amounts of clever storage while still being small. From our 206 Estate, to our C-Max to our B-Max (which proper wins, it's ridiculous. In the B-Max every single seat folds flat. Even the drivers seat. And that's not even useful! With the 3 seats folded down it's literally a van, an extra tall ford fiesta that turns into a van. _And has sliding doors and no B-Pillars_
This unironically almost made me cry,like imagine being on your last dime just waiting for the day to end forever and someone pulls you up and hands you a million dollar case
Breaks my heart when I think about how often this happens. You are a dead set legend my friend. Renault’s from the 60’s and 70’s are brilliant. You made my day!
@@possibly8180 Indestructible things. Love that that engine was still used 30+ years later when the first Twingo rolled out with that very same engine lol
Oh my god. This is exactly like my nugget. Like greatness, she was thrust upon me. Completely free. A completely running, Totally straight 1986 Volvo 240. I call her The Blue Swede. and the resemblance is uncanny, down to the patina and the mismatched door, and no door trim. I saved it from the scrapyard because of this channel. I was ridiculed by family and friends alike for keeping it in the driveway. Now this feels like vindication.
I had one of those. They're absolute tanks. I got mine for $400, never had any work done, still had the original oil filter. Ran like a champ, especially in Vermont winters. When I checked its history, it was apparently once got hit by a train. RIP train 😢
My parents has a 240, and that thing was a beast. My Mum accidentally rear ended a Ford with it. The Ford was a write off as it's frame twisted. The Volvo? We just put the front grille back on, as it had popped out of its spring loaded mounting clips.
@peterclarke7240 @chriswareham 240 gang rise up. Mine probably has upwards of 450,000 miles on her. (Idk the odo broke at 270,000 miles 10 odd years ago, so I was told) and she runs better than my friends brand new ford. All I've done to her is run a bottle of Lucas and dump a cup of tranny fluid in with the oil. Starts on the first turn. The Swedish really knew what they were doing.
Yeah the old volvos are some good things out there. Never the most impressive, but hoo boy they're gonna work for you. Treat them right and they'll always bring you home.
Love it. There's some French cars I really like, but I'm not familiar with the Renault 10 so I never knew it was rear engined. My grandfather travelled by ship from UK to Perth and then bought a Renault 4 to drive to Sydney - even before the nullabor was paved (just follow the railway line). The ram flo foam air filter is something we always did back in the 1990s when changing the stock carb to a weber. E: looks like a weber dgv 32/36
I need to see Antuane fully restored. I would love to see him painted too, as much as patina is beautiful, imagine seeing him in his full color glory? Racing colors, white wall tires, full callback to the 60s or whenever he's from.
thats absolutely wild. here in the US once a car's passed the wrecking yard gates it's parts only, no wholesale. some yards have whole cars they sell, but mostly it's parts only.
Wish they’d bring back being able to be “got it at the junkyard to rebuild it”. That’s how my Dad got most of his cars, including his sleeper drag car! (He was so attached to it that when he could no longer afford to keep it, he HAD IT CRUSHED rather than see someone else driving it. Everyone else thought he was absolutely nuts but he said it would be like selling his actual children.)
That’s usually the policies of the larger “chain” yards. I’ve been able to buy several whole vehicles from smaller independent owned yards as long as I tell them it’s being used for parts. A bill of sale with some luck and some states will let you register the car if it is old enough.
@@FrankTimms-cs5hlI know that the Pull-A-Part near me actually has a used car area for the cars that they get in that run and drive and are too nice for the yard.
Dude, i am not even a car guy, and i loved this video! Just your pure glee and energy from finding and bringing this old nugget back from the dead fills me with joy!
This is actually really beautiful, it's like a lost pet being in the shelter and at the last minute before it's put down, its owner rushes in to claim them. Even jf it takes "French Tony" awhile to get up to snuff, it's in good hands with you and James 😊. Protect your little nugget child.
Prime example of one man's trash is another man's treasure. Cannot believe somebody threw that away for how it fought to live. Which makes me wonder why the hell they threw it away.
@@woobgamer5210 Yea I think that's the most likely scenario too. The person doing all the aftermarket stuff wasn't the one to dump it that's for damn sure.
Just a reminder, if you are doing timing stuff, french being french, the cylinder n1 is the closest to the water pump, not the flywheel! i dont know this chassis, but some renaults needed the refrigerant jar hanged up while burping the system due to it being lower than other hoses or parts. i would read the shop manual just to get aware of some bizarre things and procedures these cars have. Where im at, those engines ares still being used and rebiult, valve timing is so conservative, even if you start it below freezing, on cng even, it will start as in the video, one crank rotation and away you go! Fun fact, you can rebuild the engine without taking it out, it has removable "floating" skirts that seal in the block with a thin oring that seems scary skinny, yet they hold up even after overheating the engine, no water, low oil... Grandma had one when i was a child, 78 renault 12, uncle had a 94 r19 that still held that engine, a friend had a 95(? twingo, still that engine, but 1.2 and monopoint injection as last life resource Renault definitely amortized that engine, it was in all renaults since the 60s to past 00s If you happen to need a somewhat unobtainable part for this baguette, parts and bushings are still being sold today for a penny where i live, hit me up!
Nom de Dieu, a Renault 10, in Australia of all places 😮 even here, in France, we don’t see them anymore. It was a rushed job to bridge the gap between the more affordable Renault 8 (on which the 10 is heavily based, but also gave us the glorious Gordini variant) and the higher-end Renault 16 (quite a groundbreaking car at the time, although not as much as its main rival, the Citroën DS), and inevitably suffered from a serious lack of image, most of them died out of corrosion - sadly, a common fate for 1960-70’s cars, but yours is well-preserved; or people dumped them via various « cash for clunkers » programs in the 1990’s and onwards (« prime à la conversion », for Frenchies). In fact, I don’t remember seeing one of these in real life. As you might already know, finding parts will be a challenge - in fact, it’s already a struggle here in Baguette-land. Engine parts may be easier to get hold of - looks (and sounds) like a variant of the Sierra/Cléon-Fonte engine, used in a slew of Renaults, but I don’t know about the Australian lineup of that era, so… good luck!
Corrosion problems are usually less serious in Australia, it doesn't normally get cold enough for the roads to become icy so there is no need to apply salt. Also the weather is usually pretty dry further south, though in Brisbane where I am the constant high humidity means any unprotected steel quickly develops surface rust. Renault and Citroen were never the most popular cars here, but were popular enough you still see the old ones around from time to time, and the modern ones still sell ok. There is a very well preserved DS that I often see out on weekend drives where I live. Surprisingly our local oil manufacturers still make the special oil needed for old Peugeot rear axles!
Renault 10s were actually assembled here in Australia. Along with 12, 16 and 18 from 1966 to 1981 when Renault closed the facility and went to fully importing. Funnily enough Renault even assembled some cars for Peugoet here too. The 504 im guessing.
Oh this makes me soo soo happy. that car must have been loved at one point recently! wonder if an owner passed away or had to move out of state or something and just couldnt keep it. Love old quirky french cars! i know it isnt easy to get cars back on the road in Australia but im excited to see French Tony back on the streets!

You know its PEAK nugget when you only have THREE lug nuts per tire instead of 4 or 5
The only reason I (Canadian) had ever heard of Renault was my mechanic Dad’s book of emergency car repairs that he insisted I own. The heading for “sharing out wheel nuts” (if you lose them at night while changing a tire, for example) mentioned that Renaults and other small European cars often have only three so they couldn’t safely share. 😂
…The book itself was printed in the 80’s, so even though my Dad never owned anything newer than 1992 (his car when he passed in 2017 was built in 1981 and it was an absolute nugget!) it’s lonnnnng out of date. I remember finally getting a car made in this millenium as an adult and going “What?!?!? FUEL INJECTION?!? AIR BAGS?!? THIS IS LUXURY!!!” 😂😂😂
Most Renaults of this era- R4, R8, R10, R12, R16 - had 3-stud lug nuts. It makes a wheel change very simple. I never had problems with my four 16TS'
The radial rim was invented by the french, first introduced on the 2CV.
@@petersteen4014 "3-stud lug nuts. It makes a wheel change very simple" Yep because the extra 2 nuts on most cars wheels turns a wheel change into a super complicated process. 🤣🤣
@@uhtred7860 well, it speeds up that part of the process by about 40%, and you don't have to bother about getting the tightening order correct...
the good part is that, because it's kinda modified, you have no obligation to keep it stock so you have free reign to modify it further with more random parts
If there's one car where there's obligation to make it mint and reasonable, stock or not, it's this one. Sadly, seeing the state other cars are in it's going to be a long journey.

Dude I'm actually tearing up, that car is so amazing. You can't tell me cars don't have souls when that nugget runs that easily
I didn't know I needed to see an extremely enthusiastic Australian fellow get excited about every detail of a Renault 10... But I did. And I also know that whenever I find myself with a car like this I do exactly the same thing... and get excited about glass jars, lack of rust, and the story of where the car must've come from. The thrill of the hunt, but also of discovery and sadness, and happiness.
"It's got a factory Glass Jar!" is by far the funniest thing I have ever heard a mechanic say
Perfect for making pickles.

It’s so funny how the car basically started screaming for life as soon as it started to get the attention. The nugget was basically begging to live again
Reminds me of the starting of Herbie Fully Loaded lol
This nugget is an industry plant.
My dad's first car was a Dacia 1100, which was a Renault 8 licensed copy, made from original parts but assembled in Romania.
It was the same style, almost the same shape, almost all the curves are there. Engine at the back, trunk at the front.
The engine was bulletproof and only had one issue. The radiator was at the back and cooling on it was subpar.
Also, one major drawback was the cars tank was under the back seat and it was leaky as hell. I remember one time my pants got really wet from it. Almost fainted from the gasoline smell.
Boy, this brings back memories.
The blue car had an organ donor card, gave its door to this nugget for a chance at a new life. RIP unknown blue renault

That engine was used here in Brazil in a model by Renault called "Gordini", which is the successor of the Dauphine. Also, we have readily available parts for this engine, but it would be probably easier for you to import parts needed from France

The Renault 10 was also made in Bulgaria, in the town of Plovdiv. It was called Bulgarrenault and was made from 1966 till 1971.
That's a really cool fact, didn't know that. All I knew is that the successor to these, the Renault 12 was produced later as the Dacia 1300 when it was made in Romania.
I'll be honest, the "you've been rescued, little man" at the end is really wholesome :3
The fact that newer cars Wade has dabbled with had MORE problems than this is actually insane. A little fiddle with wires, rinsing a fuel pump and BAM it works. No weird coughing to start, no plumes of smoke from the exhaust. Man, at some point, this was taken care of (and also absolutely thrashed and tinkered with).

Imagine being somewhere in Australia and a guy just pulls out a crank to start his car, that'd be awesome to witness
Honestly it's pretty handy when your alternator/starter goes bad
If you go far enough back in time most vehicles were like that. If you didn't move your arm out of the way in time the crank would turn over with the engine and break your arm
@@spookisghostly4619does that happen a lot?
@@thomasphillips885 They probably have freehubs for thoose now so it can't happen or an option to modify them with one
No, It has ramps to keep the crank from "keying" to the pulley and pulling your arm with it once running. you can see it in the video. It's very hard to hurt yourself with most crank starters, only the oldest were slotted.
I think I know the reason why there were pieces of woods inside the car. My grandpa had a Renault R4, and those cars had no way to secure lock their windows, so he used a piece of wood on each window to lock them from the inside whenever it was parked, otherwise, anyone can slide the windows from outside the car. Given that the R4 was released after the Renault 10, I think this car has the same gimmick, and it's safe to say that the previous owner used the same method to lock the windows.
you can tell James already loves the nugget. He sounds so exited
Man, one cannot simply not love Wade, he's just an absolute unit of a loveable lad. It is great to watch him be excited for something others viewed as garbage. 2:50
You know whats insane someone else cared enough about this car at some point to source a replacement door and its cleaner on the inside then outside that never happens
My new favorite nug. This screams " some ones dads project car he cherished that they inherited and sent it to the bin because it didn't mean anything to them" what a majestic find.fix it!
I'm glad you saved French Tony, these are rare as hen's teeth.
You probably won't ever find this out, as you'll never drive it at night, but those headlamps are proper Cibies, and were one of the best headlamps of their day on a production car. As far as I recall the 10 didn't use the H4 base, but the P45, and you can get P45 halogens to fit.
99% of them were fitted with the crappy tungsten filament bulbs, never upgraded to halogens, and the owners never realised what they had.
When fitted with a halogen bulb, these headlamps really deliver, provided the reflector is still in good condition.
I bet what happened was this was someone's grandpa's project car, he passed away, and the car was hauled off to upullit because the person who inherited it thought it was an old piece of junk
Im actually a bit teary after seeing Antoune being carried into the light. Such a glorious little car
This display of French soft power warms my French heart. People always say that Citroën did things wierdly, but Renault did them wierdly and made money of it!
I really love how that can of starting fluid literally says "start ya bastard" on it 🤣🤣
"It's reeking of CARE and LOVE!!" lmfaoo
I love how not only is it nuggety from its new parts but even some of its original parts just give off strong nugget auras, like strapping *glass jars* to the inside to store things like coolant. Nugget by birth and by modification.

This has been yours and James' best episode so far
1967- Summer of 1971, since that's actually the facelift model. They came with a 4 speed manual, and either a 1.3 or a 1.1 engine. Made about 50hp. In the UK, There's 1 left. 1! Also 2 years ago in Aus, these went for about 12k when clean. In Australia these seem to have a small but loyal following
The owner of that car commented ahaha
Nice save!
Only situation which I think makes sense is if the owner past away, and whoever inherited it didn't want to deal with the old car sitting in the yard or something. Either way, really looking forward to whatever you do with it. Really wish we had some of the weird nuggets you guys seem to have in Australia, here in the USA.
They exist. Sunbeams and other UK cats sneak about. As well as several odd 1950s us models.
That's what i was thinking,cause as Wade pointed out the car was clearly love and cared for
that's what my mom thought of it as well
They exist. Try looking at Robot Cantina, he has one of these too
This reminds me of back in '91 I was given a 1970 SAAB 99, the car came with an additional engine, the original Triumph/Ricardo slant 4, 1750cc with a D-tronic Bosh fuel injection, in the trunk and backseat.
The PO had shoehorned a 1973 EMS 2.0 liter into that lump. The most amazing thing was that car was absolutely straight and rust free, a 4 door with the powder blue factory paint. Not a hint of corrosion.
I fixed it up with a head milling and new head gasket/ new shims for the bucket and shim lash adjusters. It was a jalopy in Cartalk speak, but a ripper of a dead stock looking sleeper with the EMS's hot cam and D-tronic injection. It was supposedly 110 h.p. out of a SOHC 8 valve, which for it's time made it much faster than any of the Volvo 144 series cars it was competing with.
Loved that car. My wife and I drove it 2 weeks after getting going and tagged, to California in July in the heat of the San Joaquin valley for a couple weeks. Did not overheat or miss a beat, and embarrassed a group of young guys in an early Turbo Volvo wagon on the Siskiyou pass coming back.
Splendid! Absolutely amazing! Kind of feels like someone's old project car that couldn't be worked on due to lack of time, no one wanted to buy it, so it had to be scraped.
Well done on rescuing it!
Enjoy the french nugg, from my experience they are the crispiest of them all :)
Kay, deadass, I think your penchant for rescuing old cars and your fleet of oddballs pleased some kind of ancient deity. Cause that car is damn near mint. Someone loved that car. And now you get to love it too. That is so sweet, actually.

3 entire wheel lugs. What chunk!
The moment I saw the 3 wheel lugs I knew it was French. Even up until the early Smart cars (designed by ze Germans but made in France) they were still doing 3 lug wheels. I've owned a few old Citroens that did the same.
So French, so chique
Renault Kwid stills uses 3 lugs wheel nowdays.
In the past, some cars from Ford (based on ancient Renault models) use this style of wheels.

Oh my god. This is exactly like my nugget. Like greatness, she was thrust upon me. Completely free. A completely running, Totally straight 1986 Volvo 240. I call her The Blue Swede. and the resemblance is uncanny, down to the patina and the mismatched door, and no door trim. I saved it from the scrapyard because of this channel. I was ridiculed by family and friends alike for keeping it in the driveway. Now this feels like vindication.
I had one of those. They're absolute tanks. I got mine for $400, never had any work done, still had the original oil filter. Ran like a champ, especially in Vermont winters.
When I checked its history, it was apparently once got hit by a train.
RIP train 😢
My parents has a 240, and that thing was a beast. My Mum accidentally rear ended a Ford with it. The Ford was a write off as it's frame twisted. The Volvo? We just put the front grille back on, as it had popped out of its spring loaded mounting clips.
@peterclarke7240 @chriswareham 240 gang rise up. Mine probably has upwards of 450,000 miles on her. (Idk the odo broke at 270,000 miles 10 odd years ago, so I was told) and she runs better than my friends brand new ford. All I've done to her is run a bottle of Lucas and dump a cup of tranny fluid in with the oil. Starts on the first turn. The Swedish really knew what they were doing.
Yeah the old volvos are some good things out there. Never the most impressive, but hoo boy they're gonna work for you. Treat them right and they'll always bring you home.
Love it. There's some French cars I really like, but I'm not familiar with the Renault 10 so I never knew it was rear engined. My grandfather travelled by ship from UK to Perth and then bought a Renault 4 to drive to Sydney - even before the nullabor was paved (just follow the railway line). The ram flo foam air filter is something we always did back in the 1990s when changing the stock carb to a weber. E: looks like a weber dgv 32/36
The way James' footage comes around to the nugg like that gives the vibe that the nugg is the main character.
I need to see Antuane fully restored. I would love to see him painted too, as much as patina is beautiful, imagine seeing him in his full color glory? Racing colors, white wall tires, full callback to the 60s or whenever he's from.
Gordini clones exist for these things surprisingly enough lol
thats absolutely wild. here in the US once a car's passed the wrecking yard gates it's parts only, no wholesale. some yards have whole cars they sell, but mostly it's parts only.
Same here in the Netherlands. Once the VIN number has the "scrapped" tag in the governments database its bye bye car.
Wish they’d bring back being able to be “got it at the junkyard to rebuild it”. That’s how my Dad got most of his cars, including his sleeper drag car! (He was so attached to it that when he could no longer afford to keep it, he HAD IT CRUSHED rather than see someone else driving it. Everyone else thought he was absolutely nuts but he said it would be like selling his actual children.)
In the U.S. a car with a "salvage" title can be driven again. I guess there might be states where this isn't true.
That’s usually the policies of the larger “chain” yards.
I’ve been able to buy several whole vehicles from smaller independent owned yards as long as I tell them it’s being used for parts.

Just a reminder, if you are doing timing stuff, french being french, the cylinder n1 is the closest to the water pump, not the flywheel!
i dont know this chassis, but some renaults needed the refrigerant jar hanged up while burping the system due to it being lower than other hoses or parts. i would read the shop manual just to get aware of some bizarre things and procedures these cars have.
Where im at, those engines ares still being used and rebiult, valve timing is so conservative, even if you start it below freezing, on cng even, it will start as in the video, one crank rotation and away you go!
Fun fact, you can rebuild the engine without taking it out, it has removable "floating" skirts that seal in the block with a thin oring that seems scary skinny, yet they hold up even after overheating the engine, no water, low oil...
Grandma had one when i was a child, 78 renault 12, uncle had a 94 r19 that still held that engine, a friend had a 95(? twingo, still that engine, but 1.2 and monopoint injection as last life resource
Renault definitely amortized that engine, it was in all renaults since the 60s to past 00s

I can only imagine the heartbreaking story of how this ended up at U-Pull-It.
Nom de Dieu, a Renault 10, in Australia of all places 😮 even here, in France, we don’t see them anymore. It was a rushed job to bridge the gap between the more affordable Renault 8 (on which the 10 is heavily based, but also gave us the glorious Gordini variant) and the higher-end Renault 16 (quite a groundbreaking car at the time, although not as much as its main rival, the Citroën DS), and inevitably suffered from a serious lack of image, most of them died out of corrosion - sadly, a common fate for 1960-70’s cars, but yours is well-preserved; or people dumped them via various « cash for clunkers » programs in the 1990’s and onwards (« prime à la conversion », for Frenchies). In fact, I don’t remember seeing one of these in real life. As you might already know, finding parts will be a challenge - in fact, it’s already a struggle here in Baguette-land. Engine parts may be easier to get hold of - looks (and sounds) like a variant of the Sierra/Cléon-Fonte engine, used in a slew of Renaults, but I don’t know about the Australian lineup of that era, so… good luck!
Corrosion problems are usually less serious in Australia, it doesn't normally get cold enough for the roads to become icy so there is no need to apply salt. Also the weather is usually pretty dry further south, though in Brisbane where I am the constant high humidity means any unprotected steel quickly develops surface rust.
Renault and Citroen were never the most popular cars here, but were popular enough you still see the old ones around from time to time, and the modern ones still sell ok. There is a very well preserved DS that I often see out on weekend drives where I live. Surprisingly our local oil manufacturers still make the special oil needed for old Peugeot rear axles!
Renault 10s were actually assembled here in Australia. Along with 12, 16 and 18 from 1966 to 1981 when Renault closed the facility and went to fully importing. Funnily enough Renault even assembled some cars for Peugoet here too. The 504 im guessing.
Oh this makes me soo soo happy. that car must have been loved at one point recently! wonder if an owner passed away or had to move out of state or something and just couldnt keep it. Love old quirky french cars! i know it isnt easy to get cars back on the road in Australia but im excited to see French Tony back on the streets!
