Look who’s talking!…Yes he does actually speak, after all this time in near total silence on Wheeler Dealers, the man who was always around to give me a hand does it again, to help with the de-converting of my record breaking electric ice cream van.

The final part of the diesel Sprinter based electric ice cream van project is putting it back to diesel so I can hand it back to the van body converters as they want it! It is a real shame after all this time and effort but the world’s first ever all-electric ice cream van must be de-commisioned. Thankfully the legacy of the electric conversion kit for the ice cream machine will live on but if I want another pop at the Guinness World Record then I’ll have to build another electric ice cream van… …now there’s an idea!

  1. Saludos desde Zacatecas México I was having a bad time when I drop from college, and trying to get my life in order I was in need on some way of stability and choose to return to school a trade school somewhere i can be more relax and busy. I enrolled in mechanics like a hooby, but I on my way on making it a careeer, I love it. I never though I be turned into cars, in a way it was always close, I like to thinkering around I always trying to figure out how things work, how the world is, I loved Biology I studied Electronics in middle school and Electromechanics in Highschool. I liked cars but I never feel that pasion, When I was young I used to see a lot of car shows on Discovery, Wheeler Dealers was my favorite because of Edd, and I realy think I am a mechanic now because of that, it show me that world, and Wheeler Dealers were more realistic, more focused in mechanics and less fake tv drama. Thank you Edd you are a legend #MilwaukeeChristmas

  2. 38:46 subtitle: "Not surewhat Edd is getting checked at the doctors but he can keep that massive syringe away from our nipples!" hahahah good one XD

  3. You’re a double act made for each other like,Morcombe & wise Lauren & Hardy two Ronnies , China and Paul workshop diaries.

  4. At the risk of asking a really dumb question. How the heck do you not lose nuts & bots, or how do you keep them neat and tidy whilst remembering exactly which and where they were from. If I took an engine out, took months to install it to a EV, then had to put the original engine back the poor thing would never run again

  5. It's my openion.Just like seeing Benhur flim.3 epic for total damage the icecream at last .My favorite cone icecream.

  6. I always cheet a little bit and I use super glu only two little drop and stick the clutch to the flywheel and then you won't need to use the alien ment tool save time money and easy

  7. hi again Edd. i love the background music on your programme. can you please advise who the artistes ( or group) are ? thank you , regards, Mick

  8. The only upside of having fuel in the tank when refitting is the relief when you can let the strap take the weight! 😁

  9. I must be naïve cos I really thought Mike was buying those wheeler dealing cars. And Mike wasn’t even deciding on details like re-sprays and such, he didn’t really do anything.

  10. All the top comments are about Paul, but I just want to add how tragic it is the electric ice cream van van to be dismantled.

    Hope you kept all the gubbins safe.

  11. Great to see Paul again! Last time I've seen him amounts of WD series ago. And of course noone of us is not getting younger, this is a bit sad.

  12. My only regret is that I can only like this once. Edd and Paul… This is going to be great.
