Dont worry my friends, The restoration part of the series may be over but there is still plenty more Scooby content to come covering its journey from regular restored Impreza to a fire spitting monster ;) Plus lots more of that iconic Scooby rumble and scenic shots in the Scottish countryside ( hopefully without the rain this time ). Oh and while i have you here do any of you know any pro or amateur videographers/editors based in Scotland that specialize in shooting cars id like to get a pro involved for getting the best footage possible for a few of the videos i have planned for this car.
Awesome! Awesome! Awesome! I love it! First timer and myself into restoring cars and I must say that at last I found a person that understands and does what I like to do and do it properly!! Seriously impressed!!
What a beautiful restoration seriously, for people like you existing this beautiful car gets to drive on for the next few decades. You gave it another chance and literally nothing beats that. Especially as we get closer and closer to these all new fully electric vehicles that seem to have lost soul in what truly makes driving fun it just makes it all the more special. A little piece of history saved❤️
I agree with you 100% on that one, its old, crude, full of road noise and the build quality may not be as good as a modern car but no modern car will ever make you feel as connected to the driving and as feel as special as these old cars, new cars just feel too mass produced and like a throw away item i think anyway.
I really injoyed every second of watching all your videos about your Subaru Impresa. You are a really professional about eveything about cars. You have a wonderful sense of humor and a love your Scottish accent. Very nice, entertaining and educational videos. Thank you so much.
General tip, coming from the food industry, you wash from the top down. That makes life so much easier for you in the end. :) I love your content and keep making people happy.
A proper class restoration. Claying always amazes customers even on brand new cars. They are shocked when you show them embedded contamination. The Subaru looks amazing. The Bilt Hamber rust removal and protection is the best in the World.
My dad bought the first Subaru when it came to the states. And after that I fell in love with them. And this restoration is how I would build my Subaru. Love your editing. Thank you for the videos
Pure satisfaction wish it wasn’t over. You’ve left us with serious amount of content to follow. True subie lovers should follow in your foot steps. I’ll be using some of your techniques on my build this year. Thank you for inspiration!!!!
You are truly a talented guy, I've watched almost every single one of your videos when I'm not with a patient. Fantastic work my friend I wish the best for you and good health.
Glad to see you back in the car! I have to admire how much you do out of your own pocket, for the entertainment of us strangers. Keep up the narrations!
Truly a masterpiece… I’ve been watching since the beginning of this build. I come back here and watch your videos when I feel down or unmotivated. Every time your videos make me feel better and fill my soul with hope that I can do this one day. Thank you once again
I've watched every video in this resto series! This is impressive work! I will be following some of the methods you use in regards to cleaning the paint and treating it. Thank you for this!
Love this channel. The Subaru turned out fantastic. Being a retired mechanic I can't decide which you are better at. Mechanics or bodywork. You are one hell of a talented bloke. In mechanics terms you sir are an artist👍
The process of processing the various processes is being processed by all of us minions & the process of processing what has been shared is going to be an arduous process in itself. Thank you for sharing this lovely transformation of your Subaru.
I was wondering when you were going to put up the next video and here it is. First off, the video format was excellent, after so many videos relating to any one project, no need to drag it on and see every little detail. You've already established your credentials with all subscribers.., we all know how particular you are when it comes to repair, clean and detail. 👍👍 Having said that, many will agree...,this is probably one of the best restorations we've seen in a long time, very professional indeed, no short cuts.👏👏👏👏 A ramp is a necessity for all automotive work, here's hoping that you'll get one in the near future. Crack on lad, always looking forward to the next project. Cheers and Best regards from across the pond.... By the way.. I thought I'd mention.., you're driving on the wrong side of the road...🤣
As soon as I seen this pop up on my feed I stopped what I was doing to watch. I’m sat smiling like a Cheshire Cat so chuffed you finished the Subaru, just as good as the Ducati series. Well done and keep the videos coming 👍👍🍻🍻
What a great job, it was really great to "accompany" your project over the years. I wish you a lot of fun with your great Subaru. Greetings from Germany
This is incredible, the amount of work in this is truly unbelievable. I've never seen that clay trick done before. I've learned a lot from your channel. You're very organized and a bit of a perfectionist, which I enjoy. Phenomenal job buddy, as I'm new to your channel I have a lot of catching up to do and have binge watched like 10 episodes since yesterday hahha. Great channel bud. You deserve more views and subs. The restoration video is how I found ya. So I'd put more of those out to get more people in. Take care bud, from North Carolina USA
beautiful restoration throughout the entire project, its great to see such love and enthusiasm for cleaning up such a great car and the end result is amazing. perfect job man
Really enjoyed watching the restoration, and, in fact every other restoration you have ever posted online. Your attention to detail is exceptional. If I do a job half as well as you I consider it to be a job well done. Thanks !
Finally finished, and it’s a beauty! Great work restoring this wonderful vehicle! Watching your work from start to finish has been a joy, but I can’t wait for the next project!
Great workmanship, that car and its restoration is a work of art. I echo what someone else said as well, production of this vid is well up there as one of the best on YT. Well done that man
Oh my, I have soooo much want for a version V or VI STI. I have since the late 90's and this has not helped one bit. Stunning car and outstanding work/effort to get it to where it is!
Absolutely love that you edited this and realised you said "process" way to many times and decided to highlight it. 😁❤👍 As always, cheers and looking forward to the next one. 🍻
Finally! Been waiting a very long time to see her clean. I must admit, I have never seen that iron deposit cleaning/removal. I would think I would have heard of this in some form during my travels but I haven’t. Is it because of all the work around it as it sat or Scotland’s weather or? Again, that is one beautiful GC! If ya want to trade for a GD Bugeye running E85 and that is built for the track AND it wears a 2001 Monte Carlo livery, just let me know. We can work something out. Lol Thanks for the Subie content as always. My heart just sank as I need to clay my WRX. Been a few years and she needs a good detail on the outside. Thanks for all the process videos and sharing Subie passion.
I am amazed at the results you are able to achieve - and with quite modest tools and workshop. Awesome work and really inspiring. Really hope you are able to get your own lift one day. 100% earned and well deserved 👍🏻
Heya mate I've loved seeing this restored, so good to see her on the road finally, ive been restoring my 2004 blobeye for a year and finally got her on the road! They bring us so much joy! If I'm ever up in Scotland would love to pop by for a chat 😁
El impreza quedo especracular, como no podia ser de otra manera. Un gran auto para un gran restaurador!!! Voy a estar esperando la restauracion del ATC!!! Saludos RRC!!!
I loved it! Been looking forward to seeing it get completed. I am starting my restoration soon on my 04 wrx and you gave me so much confidence, help, and excitement to do mine. Love your videos and I think they are amazing. Always will be a fan! (I'd love to buy some merch when you have some one day if you already don't)
Nice to see you, It really does drive like a new Scooby but still feels like my car if that makes sense? :) Oh dont worry the restoration may be over but there are still more videos to come on its journey ;)
I’d drive/own that car over any super car or any modern day hot hatch etc. There’s no better sound and I know how much fun they are to drive. Great series.
It’s so satisfying when a masterpiece is completed!!! And the icing on the cake is nothing blew up!!!🤣 Awesome job as always and can’t wait for the ATC!
Haha love it, thats always the fear driving a fresh rebuild lol, its running a pretty safe map at the moment, we'll have to see how she handles more boost once ran in.
Congratulations for getting her finished. Beautiful car, it's an addictive sounding engine. Great product afor removing the iron on the bodywork, I'm sure my car and bikes would look something similar as I use a grinder now and again
Nice job , car looks great, and the filming/editing quality is, as usual , equally great. Now we have the pleasure of you turning your efforts back to the 3-wheeled death machine! Sorry can't Patreon....If I could I would.
Thank you so much and im really glad you enjoyed it. Im really keen to get the ATC finished now as its dragged on long enough, its been a logistical nightmare getting everything here to rebuild it but should be a cool wee trike when done. Dont worry about Patreon, commenting and liking is great support too so thank you :)

Juicebox is based in Ireland, but I’m sure the lads would love to help you out.
Beautiful work buddy
Fantastic outcome 👌🏼
Always looking forward to more!
Great job my man. Loved this series from start to finish x
Top notch !
If you're ever invested in Switzerland, I am looking for someone doing proper work on my 2011 WRX.
Glad to see that George is getting a run in the restored car. And wearing his seatbelt, too. Hope he enjoyed it.
Yup its only fair he gets to ride along since he helped with the restoration lol
You forced me to clean my computer screen, I thought "he's missed a bit on that bonnet" and then realised that my computer is filthy..

Great work! The GC8 is a heck of a car and its awesome to see it back on the road.
Couldn't agree more!, Glad you enjoyed it :)
I wont lie... I'll miss this series, fantastic work my man a credit to ya
Dont worry, the restoration may be over but the Subaru content is far from done ;)
As well as the car, I was also impressed with the road surface, not a pot hole in sight. Excellent job thanks for sharing. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it :)
This is the best Editing and Restoration video on UA-cam 🤩🥳, i love it😍
Thank you so much 🤗
Agreed
definitely !
General tip, coming from the food industry, you wash from the top down. That makes life so much easier for you in the end. :) I love your content and keep making people happy.
Beautiful restoration work brother! As an ex-pat Scot, living in Australia. I love your work and your accent!
Holy crap dude I had no idea how good that would come out after all that cleaning!! Stunning results!

very glad you did a full detail rather than just giving it a rinse
Excellent work on a lovely classic (showing my age now calling a Subaru a classic).
Haha dont worry about it i call them classics aswell as its definitely true well at least in my eyes.
Pure satisfaction wish it wasn’t over. You’ve left us with serious amount of content to follow. True subie lovers should follow in your foot steps. I’ll be using some of your techniques on my build this year. Thank you for inspiration!!!!
Thank you so much for your kind comment, There will be more Scooby content coming soon ;)
I bought a new 99/00 model of this shape ... nice to see people are restoring them now ! :D
You are truly a talented guy, I've watched almost every single one of your videos when I'm not with a patient. Fantastic work my friend I wish the best for you and good health.
Yes!!!! Amazing, as a classic Impreza owner myself this makes me so happy
Always nice to hear from a fellow GC8 owner :)
Glad to see you back in the car! I have to admire how much you do out of your own pocket, for the entertainment of us strangers. Keep up the narrations!
Thank you, im so glad to be able to drive it again it still brings a massive smile to my face! :)

After watching all the episodes...Man I need all his skills and tools to clean my ride..👍
This is by far the best impreza restoration/build series on all of youtube. Marvelous work, friend!
Thank you so much :)
The is the best transformation ever and the cleanest underside restoration i have ever seen. Great work man. waiting for the mods to come.

You're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Great seeing it back out in the wild! Amazing job!
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Awesome job! It now looks a million dollars and I suspect drives that way too. I hope we may get to see it on track at some point in the future.
Nice to see you, It really does drive like a new Scooby but still feels like my car if that makes sense? :) Oh dont worry the restoration may be over but there are still more videos to come on its journey ;)
brilliant work thanks for the quality workmanship
Man love to see it riding. The stainless exhaust sounds also really nice.
And also.. Fusso is a super good wax👌
Couldn't agree more! :)
First time watching this channel. You do some great work! I'm subscribed!
I’d drive/own that car over any super car or any modern day hot hatch etc. There’s no better sound and I know how much fun they are to drive. Great series.
Awesome job as always! Nicely done dude!!
Thank you! Cheers! :)
It’s so satisfying when a masterpiece is completed!!! And the icing on the cake is nothing blew up!!!🤣 Awesome job as always and can’t wait for the ATC!
Haha love it, thats always the fear driving a fresh rebuild lol, its running a pretty safe map at the moment, we'll have to see how she handles more boost once ran in.
Congratulations for getting her finished. Beautiful car, it's an addictive sounding engine. Great product afor removing the iron on the bodywork, I'm sure my car and bikes would look something similar as I use a grinder now and again
Thank you, Glad you enjoyed the project :). I could listen to the engine all day long such a unique noise.
@@RRCRestoration well worth the work. It'll be good for another 20 years to come with all the protection you have under. Enjoy it👍
The amount of work put in the details is admirable. ;)
Thank you :)
reaaly good restoration, congraturation, 2 years ago I had a sti GC8.
What a beautiful restoration, big thumbs up for your hard work 😉 your WRX is new!
