Hiya and welcome to the Stalwart Pond swim.
This is the Mk1 Stalwart which i bought around 5 years ago? and put and engine in and then restored the swim gear and hull so that it would actually float.

Everything went reasonable well until i totally misjudged how steep the bank into the water was and i didnt think going slow i would need to shut the roof hatches... this turned out to be a fairly stupid idea. Luckily as the water started to pour in i nailed the throttle and the vehicle jumped forward and soon the cab was once again back afloat although rather a lot of water seemed to have come in on my gear.
Also that pond is fed by a natural spring so the water is freezing, hence the funny noises i made straight after.
If you enjoyed this one you can check out some of my other videos, i have a whole playlist of military vehicle restorations you make like.

Cheers and see you on the next one.
