Bro you need a hair cut badly 😂
Please rebuild the engine! 🙏
Looks like your kind of man handling the body parts. But I guess you have to.
I'm as excited for P1 rebuilding content as I am for Robs 4 rotor content.
You guys should drive it stripped down before putting the body panels back on
Glad to help! Let us know what else you may need to get this epic build done.
So great of you guys to help Freddie out!
you folks are the definition of kindness!
You guys are going to be the saviors for this project...kudos to awesome recyclers like you!
I am glad that I have purchased parts from yall in the past and will continue to do so, yall are great.
do you have a not water damaged P1 that you can give him? :)
Love watching the progression of the "what percentage of this McLaren is sand" question.
honestly every video his mclaren gets so much cleaner just to drop 3 pounds of sand from a nether region in the next video hahaha
Don't you mean "What percentage of this Sand is McLaren"
67.8876%
Then the question of how many seconds till the dash crushes freddys nads 😂
I’m starting to wish they’d swept up and saved all the sand to show the total at the end
These V-Engineering guys are a godsend! This guys was so chill and was giving such good advice. Really hope we see them more in the future!
They they got some great advice for the P1.
Is it legal 😂
It's good to know Tav will have as much help as he needs moving forward. Those UK guys look like they know the car inside out and want to help.
And he’s so right. Drive your car and it will usually be much happier than a garage queen / museum piece.
@@marketingjames2718 That's a good question regarding warranty and such too. Custom LFP with high voltage output and oil cooling by a relatively unknown company, what could go wrong?
Mclaren is kinda known for being cool with the custom parts people, but something regarding safety? You'd think they would sue, or at least insurance might have something to say..............
The further you get the more insane this project looks. Those wires... Oh my god. I'd have nightmares about plugging them in for weeks 😂
Good thing you can find those modules because I was wondering how you would source them without losing your arms and legs to McLaren.
AZ Cycle Parts to the rescue! Glad to help!
Hey guys, here's how to replace a hybrid battery in a mclaren p1 using common hand tools
No limbs, he only sold half his soul to the devil and the other half to McLaren
@Chrisfix you know, if you started something like this, you’d have a lot of people who would follow that. I’ve been following since before you started drifting and the addition of that got me wayyy more engaged with the vids
CHRIS! you should see if you can get in a guest star/cameo in the series.
Tavarish's optimism is great
Inside he's crying lol.
It’s still early
Pulling stuff out really is the easy part.
Putting it back together will be... interesting to watch 👍
it is also, unrealistic!
It really is his super power. Most people would never even have bought the car, let alone continue working on it after taking it apart.
That dude you spoke with at V-engineering seems like the real deal. Extremely knowledgeable and not just a sales manager, so excited for the collaborations you will have with them in the future!!
Mad respect to the Tavarish team. I can't believe how much work has gone into disassembly alone - and removing the sand, fluid, gunk, corrosion, etc. I gotta watch this thru to completion now XD
ok
Anyone remember when we all thought he was crazy for rebuilding the turbo Lambo? Well, that was absolutely normal. THIS is insane. And this is why we love him.
That lambo never work imo
Beep bop... I'm the Philosophy Bot. Here, have a quote:
"We sometimes encounter people, even perfect strangers, who begin to interest us at first sight, somehow suddenly, all at once, before a word has been spoken"
~ Dostoevsky
I would love to see a reaction video of McLaren factory techs watching Tavarish wrestle that dashboard
I couldn't believe my eyes, the moment Tavarish tried to remove the dashboard.... it was painfull to watch but at the same time hilarious. Mixed feelings :D
I don't know if that was a joke about the 70k$ clamshell lying on the rubbish pile, but I think you can totally fix it ! I would recommend doing a negative mould from an intact clamshell (Hardest part since you need another P1 and an owner who is willing to do so). Once you have the negative mold you can insert your clamshell and repair the broken parts of it 👌🏻
Let me know if you need more informations on how to do it.
I don't think he really is worried about fixing it. He is getting part for free his sponsors paying for it
As Jeremy Clarkson once said " "Handmade in England" just means the door is going to fall off."
Jeremy has such horrible green teeth. Oh yeah, his british.
I read that in Jeremy's voice. Wonderful! :)
Wonder if Jeremy saw those shims before he said “plumb dead straight westminister abbey”. 😂😂
@@CrackerSmith SAME LMAOOOO
@@CrackerSmithpretty sure we all did 😅
Tavarish’s P1 is even more rarer than he thought. His headlights contain the mythical headlight fluid that many people have been searching for. 😂
Blinker fluid... its as rare as unobtainium.
He'll later regret pouring out that small amount of essential fluid.
The First Gen Dodge Viper actually had "Blinker Fluid" as it came with a small bubble level in the headlights to help with installation
it was blinkers fluid, and it should be replaces as it lost its color
It can only be installed with a left-handed screwdriver
Thank you and your team for allowing the public to be a part of this adventure. Its an amazing journey & I cant express how exciting it is to see the progress!
ok
Allowing ? Lol . The public funds this.
I love how we can almost guarantee that the engineers and mechanics at McLaren love seeing Tavarish and Co. tackle this project head on.
It would be sweet if they could sponsor him.
The fact your working on a 2million dollar car in a project binky T-shirt has now elevated you to legend in my book 👏
@Michael Jones
Yes I agree 👍🏻 and I liked that shirt too
It’s a subtle hint that this project may take a while 😂😂😂
@@GuestInMyOwnCountry because they already know its got water inside of the oil, its told them then need to do a full engine rebuild, which is why they're likely saving that till last.
@@JRs-Garage I was a randy teenager when Binky was started. I am now retired 😂😂
That T-shirt was handed down from his grandfather 🤣
@@GuestInMyOwnCountry so for oil to get down into the oil, in a normal engine, the water would either go up the exhaust or in the intake, and seep past the valves and into the cylinder, from there it would then seep past the piston rings and into the sump. Now the McLaren isn't a normal engine in that it doesnt just have one big sump, it has multiple, so water to have gotten into all of the sumps, it's not a good outlook on the engine being unaffected by rust
This might just as well be the best Milwaukee advisement I've ever seen 😂😂
I’m 1000% hooked on this. I’m so appreciative you’re sharing this with us. Given what you know at the moment how long do you predict this project will take?
This guy is taking us through such a niche and hidden market, so few of these cars were produced that I bet no one knew these things about McLaren P1s, and Freddie is showing us a new world, this is purely magic and I never thought I'd be so invested in a (definitely 1st in the world) journey like this. You're truly a pioneer.
Makes me appreciate the P1 even more, so intricate.
Perhaps if Mclaren would support this project, at least with all technical documentation, it would be a game changer.
Same when recoding of all modules is needed..
Yeah, we now know how much water and sand a P1 can hold/ hide and it seems like there's even more hiding in the next vid
Tavarish is sure giving Tyler a run for the "dumbest channel on all of UA-cam" 😂 This is real masochism I can't stop watching!
Good to see the V Engineering bloke acknowledge the cars' Machine Spirit.
Probably said this last time - but this is the most entertaining show ever - it's partly the audacity, partly the people - and finally the split second editing: we get humour and drama - and it makes for a winning combination. Thank you, chaps!
This whole project is completely outrageous... the perfect content. One of the best series in existence right now.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???
THANKS,
DEAN
@@GardenGuy1943 why are u signing your comment
The entire "car" should have been bought for 50p. Almost everything that is metal is corroded or rusty, everything that is electronic would have been shorted thanks to sea water.
@Dean and why are you yelling
I love how while trying to remove the dashboard, he starts by pulling at a fairly modest amount of pulling and jostling and as the clip goes on he begins to get frustrated and pulls, jiggles and jostles harder and faster until it finally comes off. Classic Tavarish. Reminds me of a quote from from Issac Arthur: “The number one rule in the army, ‘If brute force doesn’t work, you’re not using enough of it’”!😂😂😂
Brute force wasn’t enough tho lol it was bolted
@@deyd.8659with enough brute force it could be unbolted
@@GuestUser18 technically it would still be bolted but no longer together.
@@deyd.8659 you’re right, but I have to also agree with the second comment; with enough brute force, those bolts wouldn’t have stood a chance!
Plus I really just love Issac Arthur’s “The first rule of combat is…” quotes. I’m pretty sure on one occasion he actually started three sentences in one paragraph with “The first rule of combat is…” and they were all separate rules!
Man, you literally got me in stitches when tried to remove the dash, I was crying!
What a top team effort, you beat the whole youtube.
His comment about the wiring harness being hooked up and then hoping it works totally reminded me about Clark Griswold in Christmas Vacation and the Christmas lights scene!
Seeing that entire dashboard come out, the front come off, the internal guts of the P1.... this has got to be the most wild episode so far. It's like being in an operating room watching surgery being done. Also, those guys at V Engineering were really cool, hope we see them again later on in the series
More like an autopsy than a surgery
Great meet you Freddy and hope this helped with future colours and ideas for the P1 and meeting Paul and the team at VE Engineering - Looking at the videos probably rather you than me with getting this P1 back to its best. After meeting you I am sure this will be an outstanding Mclaren P1 in the end. Richard
your car was outstanding!
That purple color is amazing.
Rebuilding this car is simply insane!! That’s why we are here. Let’s gooo you got this!!
KUDOS to Tavarish & co. for taking on this epic McLaren P1 project with full transparency (never seen so much sand in an exotic). Surely it's going to make it in the history books when completed... McLaren P1 comes to LIFE after a swim!
I cant believe McLaren have not invited you to their HQ... You are so good for their brand....and what you are trying to do is quite inspiring...
Aren't they having severe financial difficulties or something?
@@smithjones1906they nearly went bankrupt but I think they’re recovering
Because they don't want everyone who own McLaren to fix their own car themselves. BUT to send it to them to fix it instead. Because it's a business. :D
Hes denying them 750k in parts and the same again in labour...
They want him to send the car to them to fix to make money from it, not him fixing the car and sourcing the parts through means other than them.
This is unreal...i honestly thought you were gonna hit insane road block on this project with the batteries and module but you seem to be smashing them with great help from the community
I mean considering the guy he may get a battery from didn’t say anything about pricing, and that isn’t even released yet I wouldn’t say the battery bridge is crossed yet. But it is encouraging to see that there is a potential solution that’s not the price of a house.
@Lifeonmars HOWEVER, they did talk about the place that actually built and now rebuilds the batteries. So, sounds like he can possibly get his fixed or maybe used as a core for one they have much cheaper than mclaren.
I agree man, this is quiet insane he managed to get together with people across the world to help him with this. Reminds me of when he did his 675LT with Jared. The build was just different with no collabs for the most part. He's doing a hell of a job!
@@marcusofranz1102 If they can put their new battery in the famous infamous flooded P1 and make it work, it would be a huge for their brand name and proof for customers
@@Tortuguita117 there’s only 375 p1s….
Love hearing from engineers. Soft spoken geniuses who look to solve problems vs. massage their own egos.
Excellent segment
Tavarish yanking that steering wheel and dash up and down was one of the funniest things I've ever seen 😂
Looking for this comment. Shit had me rolling for real LMAO😂😂😂
What makes Tavarish so successful isn't mainly just his mechanical knowledge, but more importantly his knowledge on how to network effectively for each one of his builds. Truly genius work...
How are you
ok
I love how precise and measured Freddie was when removing the dash ...... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He looked like he was having a seizure but otherwise really calm.
Nothing like a dashboard to send you over the edge
You three alone, no matter what you work on are the best. You guys really brighten my day. It helps you guys have the sense of humour as me 🎉 keep up the good work. If anyone can pull this job off is you three. ❤ Australia 🇦🇺
Loving this series, I`d love to do the wiring harness, that would be my favourite part. Getting all the systems powered and running correctly.
It's so good to see Freddie laughing and joking around again.
@@kingsrevenge9234 Hell yeah brother, the dude I knew who dropped out at 17 for gospel SoundCloud rap is bigger than Jay-Z right now.
Watching you shake the dashboard made me think....I doubt anyone in the entire world has ever done that in a more expensive car, or a car even close to the cost of the P1 😂😂 superb content as always, cant wait for the next instalment!
Wildest moment of the video so far
yeah I was like “bro, that is Observably still connected to something!” 😅
Cringed hard
Good thing you noticed the leak in that headlight. Just need to order a couple quarts of McLaren headlight fluid. Loving the journey so far.
I just binge watched parts 1 through 5 in one sitting... this rebuild is beyond epic!🤘good luck with the wiring harness..
You're taking so much punishment from this car and you just keep brushing it off, I commend you for your persistence man! Keep up the good work!
This project is so complex it gives me anxiety just looking at you take it apart. God bless you and your team!
ok
I feel the same way like I'm putting it back together 😭
Incredible work guys. Thats a brave project to take on, but you have overcome so many of the obstacles already! 👏👏
Ever since I seen your famous P1 on the News being washed around in the ocean I've been so intrigued. When it's finally finished I hope you enter the P1 into some car shows for the public to see it.
I've always admired Freddy's commitment. Whether it's in "Topgear" or rebuilding, he'll eventually make it.
Car Trek ?
Divorce causes weight gain. Fact.
@@warren.effting ofc
He and Mat Armstrong would be great as TopGear hosts. Sack those muppets, Freddie and Paddy, worst TopGear hosts ever.
Nice ❤ ❤
This has to be the most ambitious build on UA-cam right now!! I freakin love it
*Ever
Tavarish on that dash is me on every part...So much respect to the team with the time and dedication that went into bringing this masterpiece back to life.
Guys I sincerely envy your good mood and predisposition to work on a 2 MIL car like that... I would be crying my ass off to be honest. Kudos to your incredible work!
Seeing that wiring harness gave me anxiety 😂 what an incredible undertaking. Respect
weon frfr
Man, you are really writing history here. When the mclaren is build, this one is the most unique one
so far he hasnt even gotten the motor out yet, and you are calling this "writing history". ok.
Watched all 5 parts thus far. Excellent work guys. Keeping my fingers crossed for you guys - if anyone can get that done, it's you guys! 💪👏🙏
You've got a great team, love the energy, and the comedy along the way! Keep up the great work
Having the money to do it in the first place, is one thing. Having the knowledge and commitment to see it through, is another. To have the balls to do it, that's something else!
Well done Freddy (and Jack, plus crew). Keep at it, exciting to see the progress and how you are tackling it all.
How are you doing Mr.Chris
I love watching content I can really relate to. Nothing like watching you rip apart this $2M P1 with the same level of care I used when ripping apart the Power Wheels Jeep I found for my kids by a trash can on the side of the road. Hammers, drills, pry bars… it really hits home.
It's crazy! I can't imagine. Would take me days to remove a piece out of an abundance of care.
He’s useless hard to watch to be honest he’s got no business working on anything decent
Engaging and awesome, as always!
Watching you guys struggle through many of the same issues I did 35 years ago, but on a '75 VW Rabbit- without a lift or garage😅
it confirms my learned behavior that epic cussing was always appropriate while mechanic-ing.
See , this is why exploring is good , we wouldn't have seen or know about all this amazing people trying so much to improve all this cars
Man i felt like i waited weeks for this episode, it did not disappoint, it was a great you travelling to the UK and visiting V Engineering, a great find and i am hopeful we see more of them in the coming episodes. These are videos are becoming unmissable, along with Matty Armstrong you two are the best UA-camrs out here..
I second that. I discover matt this year and it led me to this channel.
Same here. UA-cam legends
That scene where you're trying to "massage" the dash out, I thought you were having a hissy fit but realized that that was some real mechanic stuff right there because you kept your cool and didn't break it. Mad respect
I was dying cuz I also thought he was just going monster mode on it
I decided in that scene that Tavarish reached "Mclaren Master Tech" status.
He was a little more aggressive after every jumpcut. I thought the next jumpcut would reveal him just punching the shit out of the dash and cussing it LMAO.
I actually think seeing him working like makes it apparent that no one ever should drive this death trap if it ever gets finished
The second that sequence started I was like “oh yeah he definitely missed some hidden screws”
The dashboard part: EPIC
I don't think I've ever seen anyone manhandling an hypercar like that...
Can’t wait to see you get going with the rebuild. Love your excitement too Tav 👍
HIGHLIGHT OF MY WEEK LETS GOOO
gay
That’s just depressing
That wiring harness was a huge grab. One of the most important parts to get
Tavarish, that's going to be one hell of a project assembling it all back together.
Good luck
Greetings from Sydney Australia
Freddy, your new tagline should be: "Nobody's ever done this before, but this could be possible". Having SO MUCH FUN following this insane journey!
17:24 to 17:44 Quite possibly the funniest part of this series so far! I can only imagine how frustrating that must have been to have seen so much movement but nothing giving! 🤣
@@kingsrevenge9234 NO‼🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣
Rarely do I watch a video on UA-cam and wish it was as long as a feature film of 2 hours or more. Those minutes went by in the blink of an eye.
There is no rebuild on UA-cam better than this one. Absolutely mesmerizing and so entertaining to watch.
That last part reminded me of Tavarish’s timeless quote in the first episode “ yeah, she’s a squirter” 😂😂😂
Love what you’re doing Tvarish so entertaining V Engineering great to see you’re getting help 🇬🇧🇺🇸👍🏻
Be sure to always wear a mask when cutting carbon. Love this series!
Personal “carbon capture”..
Yep, carbon flakes and powder have the same dynamics as asbestos in your body.
@@Anankin12 perhaps some legislation is required globally to warn workers of this issue. When I was working in industry I went to numerous HSE sponsored Asbestos risk lectures, but I’m not aware of similar safety training for carbon fibre users.
@@Anankin12No they don't. Carbon can be broken and extracted by the body. But Asbestos is a silicate mineral and cannot be readily extracted by the body as it does not react with almost anything.
As someone who has built a few computers before, that wiring harness gave me both chills and ptsd in the form of anxiety. Needless to say, I can't wait for the next episode.
when he showed that harness i thought to myself how much fibre optic is in that thing. i know your anxiety about car wiring. I can't even imagine trying to adapt a cluster from a different car. i think he needs someone to print him out a wiring diagram and hang it on the wall for reference because i have the feeling he will be referencing it a lot
The amount of work this car requires is insane. But I still love it and can’t wait for each new episode! Wishing you the best of luck and you get more help from experts on McLaren.
Dude, you're definitely one of the nicest guy on UA-cam, BUT how many time you must have thought "Am I crazy?" You're postive mindset is just great!
You and Mat Armstrong are a huge inspiration. Sweeing you tackle this project makes it seem that anything is possible and encourages me to work on my own car
The finest amount of precision and the amount care put into taking that dashboard out is truly amazing. Lol love the series so far.
bro gave it the cave man treatment lmao
This series is insane. Incredible work Freddy
I get that taking on this project is good for the channel. It definitely drives traffic to it. But I can honestly tell that you're also taking this on because of your love for wrenching.
I love how you guys are just banging away like it's an old Camry. I mean, sure, it's just a car right? Epic series so far, really admiring the courage you have to take on a project this big. Very well done so far.
This has been one of the most anxiety inducing things i have ever seen, I don’t know how you plucked up the courage to bring a drill anywhere that car, i felt every clip snap in my skeleton the palpitations were unreal great series cant wait to see the end product
Hey Tavarish!! Long time no see... i used to watch your channel a long time ago...but I left you tube... your videos got me thru a dull bleak time in my life... I'm glad to see you're still going.
Man I still remember watching your videos on the White lambo.. And today its a P1. We are proud of you bro ✨
as much fun as i have watching you take this apart, my mind is boggled when i think about you putting it all back together without the manual
Well it is all video documented anyways
This is what he does. Somehow he gets it done. Even if he needs our help, I helped him on his first build with something electrical because that is what I do for a living.
Tavarish will definitely bring back this flooded P1 to life. I love the progress being made here❤
Wow, some monumental progress being made with the P1, Love it.
They haven't even finished stripping it down...
If there was ever anyone I'd be willing to jump off a cliff of self doubt into the unknown with, it's this man and his team.
I haven't been this excited over a UA-cam series in years. Greetings from Germany, I love your content!👍🏻🔥
Dieser Kommentar gehört weiter nach oben...
Great video Freddie! And major kudos to the guys at V Engineering. What a great service they’re going to be offering and you can just see the passion they have for these cars even with their British understatement. This is such a great project.
This is one of the best rebuild projects on UA-cam.
Tackling a project like this would give me a constant anxiety attack. I really wish I was more like you and Mat Armstrong, able to tackle any problem with a smile. I really admire that about yall!
Tavarish, thank you for how meticulous you are in the production of your videos. They’re always worthwhile and joyful to watch. Best of luck on all your builds. Looking forward to the next season of cartrek.
What an episode! Humor was on point, educational, subject matter experts, it had everything!
And OMG that wiring harness!!
Longgggg day! Just rolling my first joint it’s 1:28am in london. Iv opened UA-cam and this the first video I see! Been waiting for Part 5 lol! Timing couldn’t be more perfect! 😊
He's a very smart guy, clearly research compatible parts between McLarens before embarking on the project
Can’t wait for this entire series to be trending on UA-cam… literally elite quality content 👌😊
Compelling viewing I love seeing the progress each episode.
This is the most exciting video series about people applying skills I will never possess, to a car I couldn’t possibly own, ever! I’m hyped as f*ck to see the progression that is being made, awesome!
Binky!!! - Watch, watch, watch! - Followed the entire journey over many years. Best of British!
This is next level awesome - hats off for for doing it!
