    These people are real Americans. Genuine. You know their word is good and a handshake agreement is as good as anything can be. Quite an inspiration really. I think a lot Of people watch this channel who maybe don’t even own a vehicle (certainly aren’t fabricators/off roaders), but they lack in their own life the sincerity and richness in human exchange that is so prevalent in both this and Matt’s channel; they watch the channel because it makes them feel good. Everybody in these videos genuinely loves those around them, everybody is being helpful, happy and it’s quite heart warming. Watching this channel has inspired me to buy a welder so I can build a Jeep WJ, and fiddle with my 70 Camaro. I have enough mechanical sympathy to figure out out as I go, fixed a garden rake last night for practice! Looks like I fixed it with boiled metal bubble gum lol, but everything is a learning process! Thank you to everyone who is involved in making these videos, from the cameraman to the editor, and of course the “stars”. You’ve cheered me up and lit a fire under my ass. Keep it up, that’s a direct order.

    15:00 If an air compressor is noisy: In addition to setting it outside, connect the compressor suction to a piece of pipe, run the pipe to just under the edge of the roof overhang, then install the air filter of choice. You will be surprised how quiet it is.

    I love Micelle's humour. She sees the funny side of every situation, and keeps the team having positive attitudes. I'm sure I am not alone in wanting to know Paul's background. He has serious skills in so many aspects of vehicle building, and he surely had to have some sort of formal training to learn some of that stuff. At Ford (UK) Product Development where I worked for 40 years, the transmission bay was manned by wizards who rebuilt transmissions using secret spells and black arts, and they would be horrified to see Paul giving up their secrets.

It's wonderful to know that qualified craftsman like Paul, Rudi and Matt are still out there as I know I'm never, ever, never going inside another automatic transmission... did I mention ever?
