  • I had a TON of responses to my last video where I gave away my heavy shop equipment. If you missed that video, it’s linked below. Now that that stuff is gone, I have a few items left I’d like to sell and give away. If you are interested in any of these items please contact me at Eric@EricTheCarGuy.com.
    *All items have been spoken for. Thank you for your interest.*
    Also if you’re interested in helping me move please contact me at that same email address and we can sort out the details.
    Thank you for all of your support over the years. I wouldn’t be here without you!

      Only those items he purchased himself. As he explained, things like his lift were sent to him to be used, he didn't buy it. I think that's one of the reasons he's giving some of this away.

    • @terryzak1742

      So disappointed. Is this a scam? Sent $133 for shipping on something Eric didn't need. After PayPal payment, then get a text to send another $200 for an "Import Fee". What's going on here Eric? Did someone hijack your thread??

      @@terryzak1742 Yes, these are VERY well known scambots. Anytime there is a mention of "giveaway", "contest" or even "for sale" items, they hit and hit hard. It gets worse for some, as many have been hit by messages coming from "WhatsApp" stating the creators name, and saying "YOU WON, but we mis-calculated and need $50 or $100 in added freight costs"...this is really true in some of the PC Give-aways. One would think that YT would be able to EASILY filter this, but they just refuse, which screams "we get a cut".

      ​@@ericthecarguy You taught me to replace a Ford Focus clutch. It was my first real car job. I did it on a 2004 Ford Focus Station Wagon, with the 1.6 liter petrol. It took me 2 months in my parents driveway. It became my first car and I sold it with a slight profit after half a year.
      You gave me the confidence to never think it's impossible to do my own mechanics work. If I can do a clutch, I can replace anything - I basically had the entire engine out for that! Thanks for that.

    For anyone interested in that pallet rack, you can lift up the bottom shelf and use it above a workbench, and with some mods and a light weight hoist to lift heavier objects up off your bench. I'm nowhere near, but they are super handy and sturdy.

    Get some & enjoy.

    Hello Eric. It may be a bit out of your way but have you considered looking in the north Kentucky area for shop space? I am in Erlanger and there are quite a lot of places with spaces for rent.
