Hey! I figured we should update the Frazer project after a year of driving in all types of conditions. Repairs were required, but considering she is such an old, unrestored car, I think we got away really lucky. The total cost of running the car for a year was essentially gas and oil, a bit of antifreeze, and insurance.

I used the Frazer a lot; probably more than any of my other cars. I ran errands with it, went to some events, took friends out in it, drove it in the rain, drove it to get groceries; it didn't get used any differently than a modern car.

Of course, special care is required if you are going to use a car this old in modern traffic. No seat belts means driving extra carefully, and 6volt headlights meant keeping the night driving in the city to a minimum. Out here in the country they are fine, though.

Anyway, over the summer I filmed a couple of the repairs and as usual, we had a few laughs keeping this thing on the road. I enjoy using the car, and the appearance of it means I never worry about leaving it parked anywhere, or fretting if someone puts a drink on the fender, or whatever. The dogs like it too; lots of room and windows that go all the way down!

FAQ: Are you going to paint it? Never. I have so many cars that are better candidates for painting that this one will never get done. It would mean having to find a better grille, the missing trim, etc.

What's the gas mileage? I don't know... Probably 16 20 mpg depending on use.

Are you going to rebuild the engine? I am going to put another engine together and have it sitting on a stand if this one fails. Right now it is going well, and a few drips of oil every couple of days is not a concern. The clutch is holding up well, and so is the overdrive. The brakes are really doing well, and the car stops straight and properly, as long as you drive within the car's modest limits. Leave lots of room, etc, but I've only ever owned old cars, so there isn't much for me to get used to.

Anyway, I wanted to say thanks again to everyone who watches this stuff, and especially to everyone who subscribed and for all of your "likes" and comments.

I'll be wrapping up this year's Ambassador project here soon, and then we're on to something a little less basic than the Frazer, haha!

All the very best from us here; please subscribe if you haven't already! Shirts and stuff soon, I swear! Getting the site set up.

Cheers from me and Stella and Francine and the rest of the guys that make this little YT channel possible.
