      I could not agree more with Tom. The editing and production of this video are outstanding. This has to be one of the best videos I have ever seen on RUclips. It shows you have arrived as a vlogger.

Whoever wins this car will get a gem...something incomparable at this time.

      Let’s add that during these 3 years you also rebuilt a go-kart, completely re-wired and did major upgrades to Mr. Dos, did a lot of upgrades to Forester Gump, worked on building your Ford Focus rally car, drove your Gram’s Ford Ranger all the way from NH to AZ and started on a major restoration of it’s drivetrain, flew here, there and everywhere to do car reviews, see your friend Liz and fix things on her car and countless other things.
      You also took time to commune with nature (“talking” to the birds in the abandoned warehouse while you were trying to film car reviews) shooting video of pretty flowers, trees and scenery and recently helping an injured bee and giving a tiny kangaroo field mouse some food and water.
      For all these things and thousands more, in my book, you have earned the title WONDER WOMAN

    This is a great video showcasing the chapter of life Teeter Tot had in your hands, Sarah. I had the fortune of finding this channel just before this project started and while I originally came for the detailing content and stayed for the Forester and Mr Dos, it has been absolutely amazing to see the level of effort care and thought that you have put in to this project from day one until now. This is clearly a better outcome for this car then could have ever been conceived before it got into your hands.
