Still impressed at the details that thought ahead about some of them 6 years ago when they started. I hope they put out a Howie Did it on the A/C line build.

Yeah, all the little details they added during the build that are just now being used many years later is crazy. The foresight they had on this entire build is absolutely crazy.

I would love to see there preplanning notebooks and sketches, you know they had to be filled with all kinds of ideas that weren't even used. In the engine building video Richard alludes to the fact he had done the head work several years before

OK, I watched the first and last video. These guys probably eat something like Grape Nuts for breakfast. ;)

Tomorrow a new video. It's good. They deal with unexpected issues. Who isn't familiar with that?

A video came out a while back from somebody else that showed them at a show with the car, and its lack of the ability to start.

From what I read they had agreed to be there so they did a fast slap it together so they could keep their promise, afterwards they had to go back to the shop and take it apart to fix the problems

I didn't see the other video but it's kind of jerky to post up a video of Binky before the guys finish it. I realize it was out in public and therefore fair game but a little respect to the builders would have been nice.

This one where they are just sitting at idle there is another where they try to drive around the parking lot and have all kinds of issues

All eight episodes? THere's like 32 or so.

When my credit card number was fraudulently used they send me a new car with a new number. I didn't bother to update my Patron account. Between them having zero customer support when I was trying to reset my password and pretty much zero content from the guys in months I just couldn't justify sending them more money each month than a streaming account costs on some platforms.

It was a copy bot. It copied a post from page one and reposted it. It did it to about ten different threads. It’s gone now.

Oh, I noticed that userid had posted a lot but their responses 'seemed' kinda normal? Bots get smarter. Not sure the purpose of doing it but whatever. Thanks for taking care of it.

They do it to make themselves look like a regular user with post history. Then they will go to the for sale area and try to get money out of people. Its... annoying.
