Thanks for the update, Peppy! I have been missing these guys.

Finally !! ....a practical use for all those old crack knife blades I've got hanging around. (23:22)

Anyone want to guess how many hours it took for the exhaust?

This series is awesome.

sand_man 07-29-2016 06:18 AM

SHEEEESH! That fuel tank!!! WOW! An engineering/fabrication marvel!

bkreigsr 07-29-2016 07:02 AM

Forget about the fuel tank....what tool/s did he use for his haircut?????
Sounded like a cross between an angle grinder and a sawzall.

How many hours did he spend making that wheel fabricator jig? - no wonder the episodes are so long in coming.

If you folks like that car, maybe someone will be interested in what I stumbled over today on the Internet.

I still need to see episode 12, i'm glad E 13 is out, i'll have to tell my dad who absolutely loves the intricate craftsmanship of this series.

pavulon 07-29-2016 09:10 AM

Can't imagine a voluntary retirement will happen for these guys. They seem too good at and too absorbed in what they are doing.

911boost 07-29-2016 10:23 AM

Make the noise!

dan79brooklyn 07-30-2016 12:41 AM

Brilliant execution. Not only because of the car, but how they produce the show.

Episode 14 is out.

Genius. Wish they had a new episode every week.

I just watched the first episode, these guys are great. The fabricator is a brilliant guy. I love the subtle humor too.

Brando 12-01-2016 06:51 PM

It's these little nuggets of gold that really make this series so fun to watch :D

Another snowy Saturday for watching episode 15.

sc_rufctr 03-17-2017 10:07 PM

Great episode but are we OK with flexible brake lines?

I would have gone with hard lines on the body.

Episode 16 is out Friday...

billybek 10-11-2017 03:40 PM

That will teach me for binge watching the first 15 episodes!
Been waiting a while for this.

ckelly78z 10-12-2017 05:10 AM

My Dad was just asking me the other day about when the next episode would be....I didn't know.

Make sure you watch the sweeper cleaning up at the end...

It was stamped into the lower cross brace after he said he was finished with it.

That's a hellavellotta obstacles they are going to have get through just to change the oil and trans fluid.

It's good to see he found gainful employment again !

sc_rufctr 10-13-2017 08:21 PM

Once again a brilliant installment & I really liked the aircon/heating box. That little car should be brilliant when finished.

porsche4life 10-13-2017 09:20 PM

Would love to see the time clock on that HVAC setup. Some serious fab work going on there.

astrochex 10-14-2017 05:27 AM

Loved catching up on this. The bracket fab timing was brilliant. I dont get how impatient people can be to wait for new episodes. Perhaps people will be more patient now they have seen how much time it really takes.

billybek 10-14-2017 05:55 AM

All in the details.
That's where the time goes.
Can't wait for episode 17....

I too enjoyed episode 16 and seeing him at the end was icing on the cake.

I was so pissed when I ripped my “Make the Noise!” T-shirt I ordered from them working in my garage.

Did you make the noise when you ripped it?
Sounds like Truck.

911boost 10-14-2017 07:54 AM

I did as it cut me too.....

pavulon 10-14-2017 08:07 AM

I'm gonna wait until this swap comes out in a kit.

sand_man 10-31-2017 07:24 AM

Finally got around to #16!!! That was awesome! Loved the cameo from Edd China! Sheeesh, crazy to think about making that heater core/box from scratch!
