    There is nothing that this man will not turn his hand to. Car designer and constructor, musician, camel wrangler he does the lot, all seamlessly edited together. And at the end he will have a car that's "built not bought" . Inspiring!

    I really like what you're doing with "The Leaf." I've got a 1930 Ford Model A with a rumble seat. For some strange reason people love that darned rumble seat. Loved the bluegrass version of the Wabash Cannonball.

    Hello from the States, caught you're channel thanks to Halfass Customs, love your content man. IMO the videos are just the right length, infused with offbeat music which I love. Most RUclips car building/restoration/customizing videos are so text book and show little imagination or creativity. I think you're approach is more inline with how hot rodding/ customizing gto started, which is building what you like with what's available.
