This is part 14 of the series looking at the complete restoration of a classic Unimog 421 (U52) dating from 1971. In this episode we look at installing the Unimog's life support circuitry - electrical, air and hydraulic systems...

Sorry about the typos in a couple of the the captions! Oh, and that's not a clutch slave cylinder of course at 35:54, it's a master cylinder. It had been a long hot day - that's my excuse anyway!
