This is so true. All of it. As I have told many people who feel overwhelmed. Rome wasn't built in a day. In this context, the project car isn't either. Break it down into steps. Handle things in small increments. Do you have 10 minutes. Do the car thing. Loosen a few of the bolts. Get a few more done tomorrow when you have those few minutes to spare. Before you know it, that one part is off. Then another. And another. You have to rebuild them, right? Same bit. Take it a few steps at a time. Before you know it, the repair will be done. Having a project car and working on it is a labor of love. That's why you bought it. That's why you are working on it. When this phase is done, it'll be great, and I think you know that too. When it comes to money, you have to save it in the same manner. Few of us can spend a few grand on taking something like this to a shop to have them work on it. There's no problem taking something to a professional. If you are like me, body work, wheel bearings, and drum brakes can be handled by a pro. I'll pass, thank you.

Subbed for the car, plz make more vids abt it

I ordered the parts yesterday, wish me luck xD

This is an awesome video. It shed some light at the end of the tunnel especially the end!! Talking about maybe letting someone eles do a little bit of the work(knowing your limits) I’m gonna run with that! Havin a hell of time with my project car and that ending part really hit home!!

I needed that, thank you. I'll be working at my project car tomorrow because of this video

pick at it and trust the process. its not how long it takes. its thinking its impossible. taking breaks from it is ok. just keep thinking it will be done one day. go to a car show see some gems talk to some people come home inspired.

Good advise. I worked on my car as I walked in and out of my garage on my way to work or somewhere else. I was able to tackle the smallest of details in the short time.

Finish it for me, the car I was working on restoring was taken from me by a crackhead, it saved my life but I never got to finish restoring it, do what I lost the chance to.

me with my 1995 Celica GT. Gas leak (small crack I'm hoping ) , Oil gasket failure. Rear brakes not yet finished, need to replace rear rotor, drum brakes, caliper bracket bolts are stripped, windshield is cracked, engine has low idle. I'm taking a break, I feel overwhelmed, I just changed the starters and the work looks endless to me at the moment, since when I start a job it takes multiple days to finish it.

I am doing the same thing for a Car Mod project for a game, it really helps to do at least one thing per day. Thanks for increasing my motivation. 😊

Old Toyota parts are so pricey. Paid $140 for a throttle cable.

Damn this vid is well done. And from Finland also? NICE!

my project car has been sitting for a year now for the lack of money

😅that's odd...*post pic of my e36 shit load of parts on jacks in the feels bro loved it 😂*

Ow man, i just sprayed a lot of rust inhibiter in those front beams. Knowing my welding, opening it up would probably maje stuff worse..

Nah Bro😭 my Car sitting there because no Money and not Motivation😂

I bought all the restoration parts

I'm going to get my car next week.If it's not done cause they told me that it was almost ready.And I'll do the rest of the work myself.Every stored several cars before and they're just feed me b.S

I've been working on my car for 2 years.Why do I work?I get myself old mechanical.How do I add The Body Shop for 8 months now?And there's still driving in their feet.What's up with that

now i really wanna get my LS400 put together well it is but i want to make it something special

Merci mec. Je veux dire sérieusement, ça m'a aidé. J'ai acheté avec mon père pour un projet commun en mars 2021 une Mazda 6 MPS (Mazdaspeed6 aux USA)... Puis le moteur a complètement explosé 7 mois plus tard, juste après que la voiture ait atteint 200 000 km. A rod a pris sa grande indépendance. Presque 3 ans après cela, un nouveau moteur entièrement forgé et préparé est sur un stand en attente depuis... un an. La voiture est sur les chandelles. Mais dans le passé (quelques mois après l'explosion du moteur), j'ai acheté un projet non commun, mon projet : Skyline R33. Après 2 ans à profiter de la voiture de mes rêves, le moteur a décidé de dire : non. Le joint de culasse a explosé il y a 3 semaines mais peu importe, j'ai acquis de l'expérience et des compétences depuis ce moment où le moteur de la mazdaspeed6 a été tué. Je sais que ça va être long mais je vais la reconstruire avec motivation, R33 d'abord car c'est la voiture de mes rêves mais il faudra aussi que je finisse mon projet commun avec mon père dans le futur. Merci encore !

My microcar still Loks good but mechanically it's a nightmare, I'm now only remove rust and give it some fresh paint because to fix the problems it costs a lot, you have to take stuff apart without instructions and install them without, first take it apart to look what is the correct part, the oem parts running out so you take copies then you wait mostly 2 Months for the parts, then installing them and after 2 years they are broken or worn down. Example: the belt for the transmission started ripping apart and the part came after 3 weeks but solong I hat to drive with the damaged one in the city, because it was partly ripped it was like I was start driving in 2. or 3. gear which ate the plain bearing of the transmission but I got 10k km more out of them, installed the copie ones because the oem ones aren't available anymore that are now done after 10k km. More defects: The injectors getting stuck because the fuel we got here. Driver side the speakers don't work anymore, the kabels need replacement fore which you have to strip the driver and passenger dor where the doorpannes only can removed if you take the doors of the hinges and for that you have to remove the carpet on the flore which is also hold on from the center console and to get to the connector of the cabels you have to take take the dashboard apart... A asshole has hit the rear left wheel probably by turning in the street and has left (no security cameras there) which bend a bit the entire frame, but the hole Axel where are not much is to adjust it... Now I just keep it running til I got my higher driving license done and then I will sell it

I dont have a car on jack stands 😕

Show this video to your painter he has a cool volvo wich needs attention!

I was hoping for an alternative to jack stands. Those things make me nervous.

I get mostly sabotaged by others... actually ONLY by others... Parts Vendors, Shipping Companys.... bad Products.... etc.

My girlfriend and I watch this video to get ourselves horny. My wife hates the video.

Bro, do you rent a garage a warehouse or do you own it

My e30 convertible has been in this disassembled waiting condition for over a decade...

Make a list of everything and check shit off

Hey thanks man my e30 has been sitting for a bit too

Fix everything little by little next thing you know the car is almost finished

3,1/2 years but we’re almost ready for paint

My current project car is manual Honda jazz that I bought for my partner and she wasn't enthusiastic about it being manual so I'm trying to make it something she falls in love with and wants to learn to drive

Loove this I definitely have a good testimony about the last project I did man was it long but it is completed. It is ok to take a step back from your projects to reassess and re analyze them and sometimes you have to hit up the ol' forums to get an ah ha moment :)

Just started ordering parts again after a few years break, desperately want my car off the jack stands at my parents house and moved to my garage at my house so I can continue

what country is that?

I am at the Point where i just have to get it on the Trailer, get it to the dealership and they have to check it for road legality because i fear something is comming up again since i already had it at the dealership for 3 times. I litterally did everything myself, every single thing, i took it apart to the last bolt, made anything and if you find out something is not quite right at the end you are bummed out it rather would want to sell it than keep going, i agree with you that you dont have to do everything yourself. I postponed this now since a while but i bring it to the dealership tomorrow. Its a Mercedes Unimog 404 and thanks for your motivational words !

My projects sitting just coz Ibecause im poor 😅

I'm 2 years in on my 6 month project 😁

I hope my E34 will be done this year!

As a long time car guy and a cereal procrastinator, I agree with the statements in this video!

Thank you)

My car has been sitting in the garage and I work on it from time to time. The weather is TOO HOT AND HUMID, no amount of airflow from a swamp cooler can help with this heat so I wait for slightly cooler and less humid days to continue work. slowly but surely installing the parts I ordered!

I like your Volvo!

No problems with motivation, just the lack of time. My garage is an hour away, beeing an active dad with three kids and I'm seriously considering changing projects for a fully fitted car needing just a few tweeks.

great vid man. One of the best things that hepls me a lot is set timer for 60min on the day that i got some free time and say now iam going to work only on this one and nothing else. But the progres is like crazy in one week it is to much that it pumps me up to work more than one hour on it.

my poor skyline is sat on my massively sloped driveway needing paint, wish i had somewhere to work on it 😔

Thanks mate!
