Longer is always better! And prayers to you for making that kids day! You could see it in his eyes!
Yes, sirree, and he made sure everybody saw it. Most people do things like that in a very low profile way for the personal experience of gifting, someone less fortunate, but that’s not how Craig rolls.
Your an amazing guy Craig thanks for taking the time to talk to the young man. He won’t ever forget it. Your a great guy!!!!
Heck yeah!!
No issues with longer as long as things are moving along and it’s not full of recaps or repetitive comments. You sure made that young man’s day! Good on ya!
i agree with @TheBBodyBuilder something like 30-45min for something special I'm good with keep it up craig
Yea, as long as it's a special car like this one.
Hopefully I'm speaking of everybody. I don't want a 45 minute video about a Tahoe.
I would even take a 45 min video about a Tahoe as long as it would be packed with useful information, which they always are. Keep it up Craig!
Thanks for being a good human. Your stock just went up a little today.
Don’t misunderstand, it was all for show, it was all four likes, and it was all to generate more money on RUclips, because that’s the only thing Craig cares about, the almighty, dollar.
@@paulh1745 wow must be hard being that miserable all the time. Seek help life can be better when you let go of the hatred of others who are doing better than you
Very cynical Paul. This is coming from a very cynical person myself.
@@neilgunns8391 I have watched this channel since he had about 135 subscribers. I know who he is. I know how he thinks. I know how disingenuous he is. I know how money hungry he is.
Paul what a wicked thing to say
Longer or shorter, it doesn't matter. The videos are almost always great to watch. I always find it interesting to watch the how-to videos. something like restoring the headlight with sandpaper ad then the two different solutions was really insightful. I remember when this channel only had like 30k subscribers. It's amazing how fast it grew.
Thank you for being that stellar young man’s hero for the day! He looked at home in that Hummer.
Love the how-to videos, inspiring me to detail my wife’s car.
Bro, that was so awesome what you did for that kid!! Mad props from NYC!
awesome car but the true person you are came out with the young man that stopped by . Thank you for being a great man.
I appreciate that
Gen 1 Vipers (no disrespect Craig) are somewhat museum pieces. They are so raw you really do need to know what you are doing or else death is a real possibility. They are absolute, pure raw power with no nannys to look after you. Maintenance and repair costs if you want to drive it are absolutely insane. Comfort was never a consideration when Dodge designed and built the original Gen 1 Viper. A later Viper is a far nicer car (IMO) and it actually has side windows .... imagine that? 😂
Craig... just spent $100 bucks on macaroons because of this video... heart warming to see how you treat the fans... keep up the good work!
I love the unusual color vipers. I have a gray 2000 with the Connolly leather. As for the headlights it's quicker, easier and lasts longer to sand with 400-600 grit then clearcoat
Thank you! Your content is so interesting, presented in a superb, conversational format, to combine automotive history, with insights on a business model worthy of study by students of the most acclained business schools, but shared with all
I enjoy longer videos as long as the content is cool. Love the color on that 95 Viper!! Sadly, it was "shared" across the platforms at Chrysler back then....almost bought a 1997 Chrysler Sebring Convertible in that color back in 1998...but the car had too many issues, and bought a different one on the lot.
Very cool your son is getting into cars too....of course, wants to be like his Dad.
Yes, that’s very unfortunate.
Long or short don't matter to me, the vids are good. Really cool what you did for that kid 👍🏽
man i love your channel. you are so down to earth. i never miss an eposide either
My car body company redid my headlights and looks like the clear coated them and so far they still look good 5 years later
My Grandson has non verbal Autism so thank you for taking time with the young lad it was emotional...
Would’ve definitely loved it as one video, either way nice find man!! Great content.
Great video, interesting watching the light work with the sandpaper... I prefer 15 to 20 min videos... then another part 2 of same length... this means I can watch them on a break etc.... Thanks for the content!
I don’t mind longer videos and on a side note I love your videos!! I am not an old subscriber but so far I love all of your content and I really can’t wait until the next video thank you sir for your channel!!!!
Craig, great video. I am so proud of you. I think Ian was very happy to be included and he did a great job. Ian you made me smile, love your sense of humor and Craig did get your “good side”. Great content and great people. Love you, Dad
I think the 20 minute mark is good. I’m gonna be honest, I tend to get bored on longer videos and go trigger happy with the skip 30 seconds ahead!! That viper is looking way better already!!
I am not one to comment Craig, but shout out to having the fan on the ep. Class act
Nice job already this car is going to be sweet when you are done 👍🏻
The Viper is incredible. Simple and mean. However, the "top" looks Iike I made it out of some old vinyl I found in the dumpster with my Mom's sewing machine. You're a good man, Craig, you truly made that kid's day!
Hey Craig, cool video...I like that Viper, it came out really good so far. I also noticed that Thunderbird you had in your yard, 1997??... my dad had one that he absolutely loved when I was young. He let me take it to my prom. What are your plans for it??
Also, I like your longer videos.
Great episode Craig. Ian was hilarious and looked like he had a great time on the show.
This may be my favorite video you have made, very informative
That would be cool if your son does a series flipping bikes or whatever he can find to his first car.
Longer ones are amazing. Maybe the entire one about cleaning and paint correcting, and the next about any mechanical repairs and the roof.
No issue with longer videos 30-35 minutes. Not a fan of Dodge vehicles, I enjoyed watching the transformation of this car. Can't wait to see more from this car.
Is it possible that Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 has the right sizes? 275/40-17 and 335/35-17 show as OE size for the 95 RT/10 and not cheap, but available.
This full video that shows the whole process is awesome!!!
One thing with restoring headlights... When you sand and polish them, you're removing the old oxidized protective coating. You need to spray them with clear coat and then wet sand and polish. If you don't, the UV with bake the unprotected plastic and it'll be cloudy again in less than a year. If the goal is to make it good enough to sell, I guess clearing isn't necessary. If you want to do it the right way, and make the headlights last, clear coat them.
100% correct.
I enjoy the format, and a half hour or so flies by, so definitely no complaints from me.
I still find it incredible that a major manufacturer brought the original Viper to the market. No nothings, just all car and the driver! How they got it past the corporate lawyers. There's a story!
you make them as long as you want, great stuff thanks nice score on the viper
No problem with longer video's :) and Kudo's for being a true and wonderfull human being.
Definitely prefer the long videos Craig ,love seeing these on the road
Let's go much longer videos and part 2 the Suspense awaits
thanks for the videos.
Oh yeah what's the updates on all your audis with german we are all waiting for thoses updates and much more as well to.
Long videos are best. You're the best Craig. I don't get the early Vipers they were crude. Big ups on this vid bud ..
Killer find. Fantastic spec. I just never understood the soft-top, side curtains and door knob delete.
Perfect length. It makes you want to come back for more - Part 2
I also did my subaru headlights. But as far as I heard and did you need to add a new uv shielding layer on the headlight. In my case I used a 2 component clear coat to make it uv resistant. The car is always parked outside those headlights look great for two years now. If you do not spray this layer I believe they will start to yellow again very fast.
That's is absolutely awesome...You just made that kids years !!!❤
Craig I have to say ( I know you know much better then me but) I used a Mcguire's headlight restoration kit on my wife's Lincoln and I have to say they came out Awesome and lasted about a year or so give or take...it took me about a hour if I remember correctly and everything I needed came right in the kit...just throwing it out there if you haven't tried....
Lookin forward to the finished product!
Dude I literally bought a 93 RT10 Viper (see profile pic) from a little old lady from Texas that had 1,600 miles on it...! What a car...! Good find...!
Your videos are so good the longer the better. Thanks
This viper is cool. Great video!
Love the RT10 Nice video!
Use a leave blower to dry the car the brush hurts the paint
Hey Craig,
Love your cars and yes long videos are good.
Ian (?) Is a Hoot! Good kid! So I'm halfway through the vid, and the Viper looks damn good. Don't know what you paid, but I know you're in it right.😊
Yes please longer videos!! Stay blessed!!
I like when the videos are around 25 minutes or so. If I'm pressed for time i'll check you out on TikTok to see what's coming up, and if I have time like I do today I just watch two or three videos. Awesome car, and great work so far! My dream car is the blue/white pinstripe 96' Viper GTS. I got to drive one once, and would LOVE to own that car. The Vipers you have stress me out with the whole reaching inside to open the doors....
Random thought and I don't know if it is plausible or not, BUT you "daily drove" the Hummer. Now do it with the green Viper. I've been watching long enough to know you would never do it with your red, but do it with the green for like a week.
LOVE the channel.
Both Michelin and pirelli make a tire that fits.
Thanks for making that guys day. Made me happy :) so I’m sure it made him absolutely buzzing :)
Nice video Craig, love Dodge vipers. That’s why I own the poor man’s version
I would deff change the top. It looks rough. Do they make a hard top? That would look really cool.
Man, you're a good dude. Glad you got Ian's good side :D
I worked at a bodyshop in colleyville Texas in 2001-2002 and we worked on a viper just like this one same color. We had to put a hood on it among other things and I think the hood was like eight grand from Dodge.
Looking forward to part 2!
I’m actually looking for one, but a little newer…. And definitely not green. 😆
Love the color.... long videos are okay by me!
Hey man, I have an 01 GTS. Years ago I threw on some high flow cats and the temps dropped immensely. You can run it for hours and put your hand on it and it’s warm but not burning hot.
Looks great can’t wait for part 2
DOT dates on tires are 4 digits. It would be on the other side of the one you saw. The first 2 digits are the week of manufacturing (so 01-52), the last 2 digits are the year.
Awesome. I was ready for some turd polishing !.. You wet sanded without taping the headlight off ,then taped off to compound/polish
I'd totally hydro dip that dash! There's some dip vids on Vipers specifically with same dash. It'd look Bad Ace.
Would love a longer format sometimes Craig.Great video as always
Cool to see this thing come back to life!
longer videos i watch these during my breakfast so 20 mins and up are perfect
The visit from the Fan was awesome!
Nice find on the 95 Viper
Will love longer videoes :-) Greetings from Norway
I can pause a long video to meet my needs. Waiting for you to post the next episode can be a little saddening. 👍 Just don’t stop for our sake.
Transitions are fluid so longer isn't a problem... Thx
Good for you mate, kindness rocks
The thing about long videos: you can play them at 1.25 speed OR fast forward over boring parts or pause and go back. Personally I hate when some youtubers stretch a video "theme" over 10 videos over 10 weeks with a whole bunch of fill to make each video longer.
You should open a car detailing shop. You know what you’re doing. A good side business. Everyone loves a clean ride.
😅 needs to practice more on the detailing skills I detail I know but you’re right
Best way to preserve paint on your favorite car is not let anything touch it that isn’t absolutely necessary. Blow dry that red Viper with a purpose built car dryer or a shop vac with a reduction nozzle. Get water out of all nooks and crannies, side mirror housings, grille, etc. A good detail spray as a drying agent and a plush microfiber (not Costco yellows) will clean up any stray droplets. Silicone squeegees are okay for lot cars but not something you really care about..
Made that young man’s day. Way to go
Can't wait to see it finished
no rod knock, good on you craigy!!!
The gen1 viper is my dream car. Has been since I had a blue/white hotwheels
Craig a true gent made that kids day and a memory for life imagine when he see this video 👍
I don’t mind the videos getting split up. It just gives you more videos to publish.
7:48 I watched this 50 times. The kid is awesome ❤
Craig, the pilar piece can be saved. Find a 3D printer, a lot of them are around these days, anyone who owns one would probably help you out if you give them a plug on your webcast.
Wow, what an incredible find!
Ian is a legend, my little brother's name is Ian. Crushing 👊👊
These are the videos we loyal viewers enjoy seeing
Buy fix clean sell
I’m in favour of long videos.
Great show. Great fan I think its spelled Ian HI. Longer shows . Ask him.
I love the EXT because I can still get in and out of the SUV 6 speed wow
As long as it’s going somewhere like this one and it’s interesting like this is. Would have loved seeing it all in one video.
Great vid! I would’ve preferred a little longer video to see the finished product as I feel like I’ve been left hanging. However, it’s a great teaser for the next video.
That’s how he gets you to come back which means more RUclips revenue.
Hi Ian! Great appearance!
Discount tire/Walmart carries 335/35/17 for first gen vipers.
Hi Ian! Great idea to pop up!
Lol 😂 It's cool that the voice of Elmo is a fan of yours
