Pandemic era Money Pit will always have a special place in my heart. It’s what ignited my passion for cars!
gave me the confidence to start a project. its a mess but hey its a blast.
Cars are pain
Damn must of not been around for the NFSU years.
SAME!
same, that miata series was what got me into cars in the first place
For me it was pre hart attack bumper to bumper
The brotherly bond these guys have is what makes this channel unique
It does really feel like watching a couple of your buddies working on their car
All these kind of channels are like that. How does a comment that isn't at all accurate, get 445 likes? ..Sorry 567 likes, and growing. Brotherly bonds are NOT what makes them unique. It's a couple of their personalities, that have made them unique, and famous. If you're going to compliment them, at least compliment them for being original guys.
Plus they explain things in a way that makes sense they care about what they put out but I agree with you as well
@Detroit Micro Sound Yeah. Imagine people trying to create a channel like this but with no charisma or chemistry.
@@DetroitMicroSound are you on your meriod by any chance?
Bro the line “do whatever you want, fuck resale” holds a special place in my heart. 10:22
I love Keith I think he’s a great addition to the donut crew can’t wait to see more of him!
gagA
LOVE the classic 2019-2020 Money Pit vibes this episode had!!
more of this again!
Jerry’s decent into advertising madness was the character arc we never knew we needed.
descent
who is that "jerry" you're talking about? As mentioned in the episode, the dapper man in tweed is clearly the distinguished Mr. Keith Keeps! So kind of him to stay and help with the car!
I think that was Jer's father, as that was clearly filmed in the 70s... 😬
They make the best sponsored segments on RUclips. Hands down.
he kinda looks like pedro pascal with the cheap stache on.
🤯 The production on that commercial is so incredible!! So many people try the VHS look, and it's totally unrealistic, but you guys nailed it not only from the technical side (I'm convinced that you possibly shot it on tape), but the cinematography of the commercial is perfect too!! 🙇😎👍
they really have top notch production quality
I NEED TO SEE MORE OF THE MIATA!
That felt like a upscaled classic Money Pit episode!
Not only did you have Keith Keeps as a guest on your show, but you've managed to get him to work with you. Donut you are amazing!
Keith Keeps needs to be in more stuff.
THE Keith Keeps? Wow!
I love how Keith Keeps was there for moral support, above and beyond customer service.
Dawg Keith was making clean ass cuts
Please wrap it in Yellow 541 A.K.A. the color cade for the donut media logo🙏🙏
So happy to see the Miata back on the channel. Pandemic Driveway era MoneyPit will always be my favourite part of Donut. Inspired me to get my own project and wrench on it myself 👌🏽Thanks Zach!
The original money pit was a huge reason to why I brought my miata as my first car. Donut has also been such a huge inspiration and I’ve actually started working on it with some friends. If it wasn’t for this channel, I’d probably never have been inspired to pick up wrenches with my buddies and work on cars
Do you still have it?
Me too 😢. It feels so special given money pit did most of the same things mine has.
Donut is the reason I bought my z. They make everything look like so much fun lol
Yeha me too, bought the Nbfl with the big machine in 2020!
“Do whatever you want. F**k resale.”
The wisest words ever spoken by a car guy.
That Ad is perfectly made. Gave me a good laugh😂. Tnx Keith Keeps!
Almost cried finishing this episode it had such an OG donut vibe. Thank you guys.
dude fr
Now it only needs to be on the driveway🔥
I honestly like the original black Miata. Kinda has a lot of history with Money Pit and all but I think if you'll wrap this, maybe some awesome dark shades close to black would be cool.
Maybe a navy blue? It would go good with the rims as blue and silver is a good combo. Definitely agree a dark shade would be nice.
Hot rod red
That would make a great video! Them trying to wrap it!
agreed. deep purple would be dope
@@liqzz Nissan midnight purple for those jdm vibes
We're waiting on the wrap
it takes serious guts to buy brand new fenders and proceed to chop them up for fender flares... respect!
That keeps customer service is next level. They help you keep your hair AND install your fender flares...
Donut Media could only make commercials and they would be the best in the industry. I love their creativity. This is the only channel where I don't skip the sponsored segments ever.
Agreed, when the commercial came on I immediately cracked up just from how Jerry was dressed
agreed i never skip the ads i wanna give them the view time
I love the Miata! Good to see some solid DIY content with Zack again. I still owe Zack a beverage of his choice for helping me with my N54 turbo install - from one of his past lives. 👍
I LIKE these kinda actually-working-on-cars videos, Donut
So cool that Keith Keeps could take the time out of his busy day to hang out with the boys in the garage.
I thank the higher automotive beings above everyday for Donut. Guys really pulled me out of a funk and made me wanna start turning a wrench again. Nolan, Jobe, Uncle Jerry, James, Justin, thank you for doing what you do. Also, the Miata needs to be a dark green
Fully agree with the dark green
Racing green and gold rims
@@JRoadz I play guitar and I put one together out of left over parts a couple years ago. Sherwood green body with gold hardware looks sharp. Can never go wrong with green and gold
First time I sat through a whole don't episode in like a year. Keep the OG style videos coming :)
1:44 me in my girls ear
Jerry and Jobe's friendship arc is the best thing to happen on this channel. I fucking love it, so fun.
They're the glue of this channel now
I can't tell if they're best friends or if zach hates jerry lol
@@palmtree476 those are the same things.
Good to see a Money Pit episode (even if it wasn't officially). Really rad!
Zach has been tasked with all the videos that first made Donut special, carrying the channel right now
Big time. The guy not only does all the hard work videos, but has the personality to effortlessly carry as host as well. Sometimes feels like he gets stuck with all the hard shit and isn't too happy about it, but probably reading too much into it.
What a dumb and toxic comment by a fake 'fan'
The donut team are beyond incredible. They even make their adverts so entertaining you end up watching the whole thing 😂
the miata money pit was probably my favourite series so far, nice to see it back in the limelight
Miata looks so concerned at 3:19
(also, I vote blue for the wrap)
0:28 "I'm Zach, this is Donut" -Jeremiah
I’ve always been too afraid to cut into the body on any of my projects! Nice job Zach Jobe!
Pusseh alhuuurt wheeewhooo
@@MrDino-hp7fy lol
Believeeeee in yourself lol
My face @6:10 when he's just casually drilling towards the intercooler piping 😧
Jeremiah showin up to punch fenders in his tweed professor get-up is a vibe lmao. Miata Doctor's in the house 😂
Also, with these flares that extend onto the front bumper, I would very much recommend that you cut the flares at the seam where the bumper and fender meet and make it two pieces (look at how Dodge did it for their widebody). Two reasons for this: one, it means less steps when removing the front bumper. Secondly and more importantly: if the bumper ever gets ripped off for whatever reason, you don't have to worry about it murdering your flares and the fenders.
You can easily secure the smaller piece on the bumper with the single bolt along with body adhesive
The ad bits are getting better lols keep up the great content
Colour Idea: Jet Black with hints of red
Black and Red always look good together
Glad to see Keith Keeps remembers where he came from. Putting in the hard work with luxurious locks.
the pink mx5 at 1:32 those with a keen eye will know thats shot at eastern creek raceway in Australia
Did the Miata ever get a wrap? Lol
Still waiting on that wrap bro 😂
$350 for four pieces of plastic!? That's insane!
Injection molding isn't cheap.
Yes it is
The miata is now riced
Fun fact, the cheapest injection mold cost is 9000+ for a small part. With low production numbers your parts just cost more unfortunately
Welcome to the world of modding cars my friend
I think I have a problem with widebody miatas because I recognized every single one you guys showed as examples! Glad to see Tofu and Robbie getting some recognition they well deserve!
"Just like Game of Thrones?'
"Yes Jimmy, Just like your Game of Thrones"
At 13:00 we actually did get that front lip in the states, its actually called the r package lip but was also on other trims as well. Without researching anything though I can guarantee it was on the na6
It was nice to see Eddie back on screen it’s been a while
The Miata is back! That little bugger has easily been some of my very favorite content from you guys since the early Moneypit Covid days. Keep it coming!
Once you cut there's no going back? In the immortal words of Jeff Spicoli, "My dad is a TV repairmen and has a righteous set of tools. We can fix it!"...... and then in typical,Donut fashion, this video ensues.
Bro, the ad brought back so many 80s commercial memories, lol.
It’s nice to see Keith Keeps getting his hands dirty helping out the Donut crew in the shop.
A red-orange pearlescent wrap would be dope on this
I came here to comment donut yellow or the green of the money pit snake but this gets my vote instead
@@Lysdexis consider moneypit snake blue-green pearlescent
Dude, same. I saw the wrap that Christian from VV put on his F30 335, and I thought "That colour would look sick on the Miata.
Jeremiah looking like he just finished his CEO shift and was forced to work on his friend's car 🤣😂
+1 to the og style content. I miss these episodes
I love Jeremiah, gotta be one of my favorite goofy goobers
I love that Jer is a method actor who stays in character while he's working in the shop 😂
6:57, Jobe makes a farting joke
Jerry: So immature.
Says the guy that recorded the Farting Car Alarm.
love the og donut vibes shit was fun to watch
It’s nice to see the Donut boys carrying some quality knives.
Jerry being like "I'm Zach & this is Donut" has me dead 😂
Keith is a great addition to the team!
The Donut crew have been just killing it this year. Can't wait to see "the future" videos.
We love the miata content!! Keep killin it bois ❤
Money Pit gang 🤙🏽
I wish you guys had a separate channel where you uploaded the actual how to, even if it’s not to the style of these videos. Job and Jeremiah both have a way to make it sound do-able. Just a thought in my brain tho
Another channel recently launched
I love that Jerry’s working in the 80’s blazer jacket lol
I always wanted to do a Lego wrap. Making my car look like it was assembled with random Lego pieces. I can't afford it, so maybe you'll think it's cool enough to try. Can't wait to see whatever you choose.
While it would be fun to see this little Miata get a paint job, it'll be interesting to see what color you all go for in wrapping it. Maybe a British Racing Green, or something out there like a deep/midnight purple.
Looking forward to seeing that little Miata once again!
Everytime I see eddy now all I can think of is when he asked Nolan if he was ok on season 1 of Hilo and Nolan was like “no eddy what the f$&@ do you think??” 😂
So glad to see this type of video back
Zach and Jeremiah, what a combo
I am so happy you're back to making videos more of what we loved Donut for!
I've been on the fence about cutting up my MR2 for years. I LOVE the look of flares but... cutting... car... so torn. Thanks for the video!!
You only live once man, You either do it great and find something new to work on and be proud of, or fail and get it fixed. Either way, practice would do you good. As a subaru bugeye owner, modifying the car always seemed so scary, because its a subi, but in the end it turned out great, and I'm in love with it, its like using needles, at first its really scary, then you realize you really over exaggerated the pain
SW20?
Same thing here man. Already have the flares lying around for my Miata, just need to install them...
@@Ashenhope I really like the analogy you used because I can identify with it. I used to be scared of needles and now I inject heroin regularly. It seems scary but people really exaggerate the crippling dependency 😊
@Timmy Turner I was refering to blood tests and such but, heroin works fine
Jimmy says the front lip is an 'R speed' lip and that we never got them in the states. It's actually called an 'R-Package' front lip, and we did get them in the states, but only on the R-Package models. Sauce: I have an 94 R-Package
"Do what you want fuck resale" best thing I heard Zack say
When these two started working together they were so tense and awkward I genuinely thought they didn't like each other
Now they are like the perfect comedy duo - love it
You guys should do a satin purple wrap, looks clean but fits the cute but aggresive style as you guys said lol. Anyway love the content, been watching for about 4 or 5 years and you all never fail to make my day better thank you all
I’m still wondering where James has been after all this time
He’s been absent from past gas too
Probably just taking some time off
Silica breathe that came on the R34 GT-R, give it a nice subtle classy look
I'd wrap it black, but have huge underlay DONUT logos on the sides sort at an angle so that you can see the shape of the logo
5:00 play this next to your parents
😂
If the Miata is staying a solid color, it should stay black. If a livery was an option, maybe something kinda retro but gloss black on matte black for some flare? Good stuff happy the Miata’s back :)
Those flares make this miata look so damn cool. It should all be either a dark ivy green, ONE shade of black or a dark navy blue.
Weld thru primer is a crucial step
Keep’s sponsorship is straight 🔥 🔥 🤣
This is the content we enjoyed please bring back this and up to speed guys 😅
so happy to see stuff like this again
Yo! Thanks so much for throwing my build up in the video ! Means a lot to see you showing her to your crowd ! @donutmedia ❤
Someone give Jimmy his own show
Jerry chasing Jobe using a high pitch voice made me laugh more than I thought 😂
14:57 Wrap the Miata in Gun Metal Gray with a Carbon Fiber wrapped hood and slap on a set of Volks TE37’s ✨😮💨👌🏾
Ayo we need a video on that sim rig in the background 🤣
I fell in love with donut with the money pit series. But loving everything y’all do
So cool seeing eddie! he needs his own show one day!
“Do whatever you want fuck resale” 🔥🔥🔥
Avery ColorFlow “Rushing Riptide” or a light blue chrome wrap would imo be wild
I've always loved British Racing Green with bronze wheels on a miata so that's my suggestion for the wrap
That Keith Keeps guy sure is a well learned man. Expert in hair AND miatas ! :D
Paint it the blackest-black, VANTABLACK! No reflections, no gloss. Light can't escape.
