Fearlessness, backed up by skill, intelligence and the humility to take a step back and learn what you need to get the job done. Great respect and admiration.
This is probably one of the best videos you have produced. The editing and production must have taken a real toll on you, hours of work getting all the clips together. Production quality. well done
I could not agree more with Tom. The editing and production of this video are outstanding. This has to be one of the best videos I have ever seen on UA-cam. It shows you have arrived as a vlogger. Congratulations on a job well done!!
I want to say you've put an "infinite" amount of work into this project, maybe an "overwhelming" amount is better phrasing. Anyway, you have done an incredible job and your knowledge, passion, and sheer talent were all demonstrated in this difficult project. Whoever wins this car will get a gem...something incomparable at this time.
Sarah, The great job you've done here is EPIC! and what truly makes it stand out is you accomplished most of it by yourself, including the camera work... BRAVO ! 👏
Let’s add that during these 3 years you also rebuilt a go-kart, completely re-wired and did major upgrades to Mr. Dos, did a lot of upgrades to Forester Gump, worked on building your Ford Focus rally car, drove your Gram’s Ford Ranger all the way from NH to AZ and started on a major restoration of it’s drivetrain, flew here, there and everywhere to do car reviews, see your friend Liz and fix things on her car and countless other things. You also took time to commune with nature (“talking” to the birds in the abandoned warehouse while you were trying to film car reviews) shooting video of pretty flowers, trees and scenery and recently helping an injured bee and giving a tiny kangaroo field mouse some food and water. For all these things and thousands more, in my book, you have earned the title WONDER WOMAN
I bet you cried editing this video as i did watching it. Thanks for all this content Sarah, we, the people who clean under plastic cover on our cars appreciate you a lot
Tee Ter Tot has traveled a long way. Through blood, sweat and tears, Sarah has transformed Tee Ter Tot into a beautiful and amazing car. May its next journey be a happy one and one that remembers its past, as it cherishes its renewed future.
Whoever wins the TT is getting more than a better than new car. They are getting a part of Sarah, an incredible talent, an incomparable human being, and somebody I would be proud to call a friend. We love you!
There are not many people who could do what you have done with this car, I love the way you have taken it back to factory and then improve it truly well done
I remember you getting ToT. That was a adventure I believe, we all, as car enthusiasts have done at least once. Some like yours worked out a lot better than others but it doesn’t matter, it’s the journey. Well done and congrats. You have a lifetime of memories!
This is not a restoration or rebuild. This is art, passion, emotion, inspiration, perseverance, elevation, and realization. Thank you for letting us witness this journey.
It is kind of crazy that this car is finally done. Congrats on finally finishing it, cant wait to see the next project!! Shout out to the robot assistant and the penguin!
Awesome job Sarah. The lucky winner is not just getting a great car but all the blood, sweat, tears & half a kidney you put into it. Giving away something that has been such a passion project for you & taken so much of your time is beyond generous .
Speechless. What a ride. I watched 👀 this build from beginning to end and it was worth every minute I spent watching it. I tip my hat to you 😉. Hope future build are as memorable as this one. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
My heart started to quiver at the end there. Like saying goodbye to someone you love because you've grown apart and are each on to the next thing in this life :'( the feels are too much...
Amazing time lapse on the “Tot”. 30 hours to put this “Life of the Tot” together, thank you for working SO hard like you always do. You brought the Tot back to life, created awesome content, and did it all by yourself. You are a super hero. Super happy meeting you at SEMA today, have a great show, take some time to have fun, and take care of yourself.
What a journey we all (Teeter Tot, You, Us) went through. That car has received so much love and attention. You went all out and the result speak for itself. And now this video is a beautiful tribute to it all. As sad as I am to see it go, I can't wait to see the next project going under your scalpel!
Awesome montage! I seriously think you are the best mechanic on youtube. I've learned so much from your videos. I actually got a little teary eyed at the end seeing you so happy with your teeter tot that you nursed back to life! Keep up the great work!
I haven't commented that often on your videos or TeeterTot in general. But you have built, in my eyes, the finest 1st gen TT in the whole wide world and you should be so so proud of the work you have put in! You really saved the TT and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that'll find a new loving home.
A three year time lapse video! Starts from working on your back from your home garage to working under a lift at your shop. A video of evolution in more ways than one! Awesome work Sarah!
Whomever wins this car had better call it "Sarah". You truly put your heart, soul and love into it. Huge respect for your skills, knowledge, attention to detail and your work ethic.
Whoever wins the Teeter Tot will have the most amazingly documented piece of Audi resto history to cherish - and Drive!. Your blood, sweat and guts went into this project hugely. Much respect!
This flat out confirms, once again, that you really do not give up on anything Sarah. A truly outstanding compilation of work, experiences and memories you put together for all of us to commemorate the three-year journey.
It wasn’t that long ago, but when I think how much you’ve grown and how the channel has evolved - it seems you were itty bitty. CONGRATS ON ALL YOUR GROWTH AND SUCCESS!!
I hope whomever is the recipient of your automobile will truly appreciate and care for it, the work and detail to excellence of craftsmanship has been on full display, you entertained us through the journey and taught us many thing's, for that I thank you, I'll look forward to your next project with anticipation, great job, you should be very proud of your accomplishments.
I have followed the TT since the day you two brought it home. Amazing job on the build and you dedication and work ethic shows throughout. I think that it is better than it was off the assembly line many years ago.
People who aren't into cars dont understand. You sacrifice sometimes years of your life to create something special. The "just a car" in the parking lot is a piece of you and it always will be. Congrats on successful lifeforce transfer Sarah you gave this TT another chance to bring smiles. 👍
It’s amazing that no matter how big a problem on the car you had you stayed focused on solving everything to perfection. Can’t wait to see you on the Ranger journey. Keep up the great content.
Who could have guessed it would only take you 13 minutes/35 seconds to restore that TT!! Gotta be a record. I've really enjoyed this build from beginning to end and look forward to your next crazy adventure with great anticipation.
I hope whomever wins this car appreciates it, appreciate the fact that a vanpire was in the sun aand rain and stress to build this, much respect to you sarah
There is so much of you in this car build it is almost heartbreaking thinking about what you are going through to give it away. I personally would love you to keep it forever as a representation of your skill and devotion.
I’ve been with you from the start when you both collected the car. Who would have thought where you’d both end up. From on the floor in your garage, to your own shop with lifts. The same for Teeter Tot, a sad, tired little car to an amazing ride anyone would be proud to own. What you have achieved is reflected in how the channel has grown. Look back with pride. Here’s to a new chapter.
The TT has come a long way in 3 years, and so have you. I love your channel and am glad that you're getting some recognition now for all your hard work.
As this era of “older” cars become more popular to restore and mod, I think you could really make the bank specializing in it. The level of attention to detail you have is something special to be honest.
Your channel was my lockdown binge and Ive been a fan since. Very cool to see the car done but I am hugely sad that its not going to be part of the channel anymore. Hope the new owner looks after it. Phenomenal job, better than new 😁👍
The amount of time effort pride and attention to detail shows in the stunning end result !!. Give yourself a huge pat on the back for doing a truly amazing job
This is a great video showcasing the chapter of life Teeter Tot had in your hands, Sarah. I had the fortune of finding this channel just before this project started and while I originally came for the detailing content and stayed for the Forester and Mr Dos, it has been absolutely amazing to see the level of effort care and thought that you have put in to this project from day one until now. This is clearly a better outcome for this car then could have ever been conceived before it got into your hands.
I cannot believe it's been 3 years. I started watching your channel a few months before this project started around 30k subscribers. Now you're an influencer. Just crossed 400k. Amazing. Congrats on having hard work and persistence pay off.
It has been an honor being part of this journey. It also makes me even more glad that I found your channel and subbed to it! The car journey's you take us on are amazing and I can not wait for join you on many more of them as a fan.
Sarah I hope whoever wins this car truly appreciates the amount of work you have put into it and just doesn't go out and rod the shit out of it. With how low the sales of this car were and the not so long of a production run it is something that needs to be cared for. This car was truly a labor of love. Just your labor alone let alone the cost of all the parts far exceeds what it could be sold for today. I remember when the TT first came out so many years ago and thinking it was the ugliest car ever produced. I now have a new level of respect for what it is. Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us.
So nice to see a thorough rebuild a car that they will never make again and this example of clean rebuild will be quite the show piece to keep that uniqueness of a VW an Audi conglomerate alive. Now I hope I win it. Would be well taken care of for a long time here.
Wow, you really gave life back to this potato. I guess it must feel happy now, and I know whoever wins it will feel the same. You're amazing, loved every second of it.
Fantastic tribute to the TT. How thorough one can be with a bit of OCD. Enjoyed every moment of it. Hope the new owner takes care of it well. Great work Sarah!
Yep, been here since day 1. The pain and lessons learned with this thing. Staggering! 👏🏻🙏🏻 Really hope the winner appreciates all the sweat and tears you sunk into this. 👍🏻
You chose an awesome soundtrack to go with this transformation. The person who gets this vehicle is so lucky. Keep posting and your fans will keep watching!
Sarah, I'm thinking you are bawling like a baby having to see this culmination of 3 years go bye-bye into someone else's garage. I can't imagine pouring that much love and sweat into something just to see it drive off into the sunset with someone else as its permanent new owner. Air hugs, my dear. AIR HUGS!
Hello, I have been following your renovation steps for quite some time and I admire your serious work, it is a real pleasure to watch your videos. 3 years of work is a lot, I have a 2007 TT MK2, which I maintain carefully and people already take me for a fool, but this is pure perfectionism. respect. Hello from France. Johan.
It occurs to me that I don’t recall the acquisition of the car, so I hadn’t discovered your channel until you were well along in the before-times of working on it. So thanks for editing up the timeline video, it does show just how huge an undertaking it was, and how truly impressive your determination and abilities are.
Sarah, you should invite Small Sarah for the giveaway. Complete the cycle. Just a thought.
Fearlessness, backed up by skill, intelligence and the humility to take a step back and learn what you need to get the job done. Great respect and admiration.
Very well said. Couldn't agree more.
👍👍👍👍👍👍 Agree completely!
Spot on.
This is probably one of the best videos you have produced. The editing and production must have taken a real toll on you, hours of work getting all the clips together. Production quality. well done
I could not agree more with Tom. The editing and production of this video are outstanding. This has to be one of the best videos I have ever seen on UA-cam. It shows you have arrived as a vlogger.
Congratulations on a job well done!!
Exactly!
I couldn’t agree more. A stellar production. Well done.
This feels like a real journey you've been on with Teeter Tot, and I love it.
I'm glad I've been part of this journey. You should be immensely proud of the achievement 🏴🇺🇸🥰
I want to say you've put an "infinite" amount of work into this project, maybe an "overwhelming" amount is better phrasing. Anyway, you have done an incredible job and your knowledge, passion, and sheer talent were all demonstrated in this difficult project. Whoever wins this car will get a gem...something incomparable at this time.
Behold the only TT I'd ever want to own. You did an amazing job.
Sarah, The great job you've done here is EPIC! and what truly makes it stand out is you accomplished most of it by yourself, including the camera work... BRAVO ! 👏
And editing
@@alexkruyer YES ! That too.
Let’s add that during these 3 years you also rebuilt a go-kart, completely re-wired and did major upgrades to Mr. Dos, did a lot of upgrades to Forester Gump, worked on building your Ford Focus rally car, drove your Gram’s Ford Ranger all the way from NH to AZ and started on a major restoration of it’s drivetrain, flew here, there and everywhere to do car reviews, see your friend Liz and fix things on her car and countless other things.
You also took time to commune with nature (“talking” to the birds in the abandoned warehouse while you were trying to film car reviews) shooting video of pretty flowers, trees and scenery and recently helping an injured bee and giving a tiny kangaroo field mouse some food and water.
For all these things and thousands more, in my book, you have earned the title WONDER WOMAN
I bet you cried editing this video as i did watching it. Thanks for all this content Sarah, we, the people who clean under plastic cover on our cars appreciate you a lot
Fantastic build, Sarah!
Whoever wins it is getting a little of you with it.
Time For a Vacation!!!
Respect. An OG in the making. The car GODs are pleased.
Tee Ter Tot has traveled a long way. Through blood, sweat and tears, Sarah has transformed Tee Ter Tot into a beautiful and amazing car. May its next journey be a happy one and one that remembers its past, as it cherishes its renewed future.
Whoever wins the TT is getting more than a better than new car. They are getting a part of Sarah, an incredible talent, an incomparable human being, and somebody I would be proud to call a friend. We love you!
You took a piece of garbage and made it better than new. Very impressive. I’ve really enjoyed watching it!
There are not many people who could do what you have done with this car, I love the way you have taken it back to factory and then improve it truly well done
I remember you getting ToT. That was a adventure I believe, we all, as car enthusiasts have done at least once. Some like yours worked out a lot better than others but it doesn’t matter, it’s the journey. Well done and congrats. You have a lifetime of memories!
That is so true in the years to come, there will be those moments when you'll think back and remember with pride what you've accomplished.
I can't imagine putting that much work into something just to give it away. I hope little Sarah has a chance to ride in it again before it goes away.
It’s not fully hit me yet that it’ll be gone. I did cry editing this a bit, but on to better things!
You should be proud! Such a great transformation. Even if I don’t win it, I am looking forward to the next build!
This is not a restoration or rebuild. This is art, passion, emotion, inspiration, perseverance, elevation, and realization.
Thank you for letting us witness this journey.
It is kind of crazy that this car is finally done. Congrats on finally finishing it, cant wait to see the next project!! Shout out to the robot assistant and the penguin!
!!🎉 🐧 🎉 !!
Mega transformation, I didn't realise I'd been watching you for this long, time just flys. Bye bye Teeter Tot you'll be missed.
I miss the abandoned warehouse ( I know its gone) but Tator deserved an old school review. Well done on the restoration!
Awesome job Sarah. The lucky winner is not just getting a great car but all the blood, sweat, tears & half a kidney you put into it. Giving away something that has been such a passion project for you & taken so much of your time is beyond generous .
Speechless. What a ride. I watched 👀 this build from beginning to end and it was worth every minute I spent watching it. I tip my hat to you 😉. Hope future build are as memorable as this one. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great job rebuilding the teeter tot. Congratulations to whomever wins it
Dang I remember when y’all went and got the TT!
I subscribed because of your attention to detail. I stayed because of your sense of humor. Anyone who loves cars is my kind of people.
My heart started to quiver at the end there. Like saying goodbye to someone you love because you've grown apart and are each on to the next thing in this life :'( the feels are too much...
Plenty of blood and sweat went into this build. I presume the tears came while making this video. Amazing job!
Amazing time lapse on the “Tot”. 30 hours to put this “Life of the Tot” together, thank you for working SO hard like you always do. You brought the Tot back to life, created awesome content, and did it all by yourself. You are a super hero. Super happy meeting you at SEMA today, have a great show, take some time to have fun, and take care of yourself.
Whoever wins is going to have an awesome car! You did a great job Sarah!
Sarah & the TT have come a long way, it's been very educational & entertaining
Sarah deserves an award. Best UA-camr of the year.
What a journey we all (Teeter Tot, You, Us) went through. That car has received so much love and attention. You went all out and the result speak for itself. And now this video is a beautiful tribute to it all. As sad as I am to see it go, I can't wait to see the next project going under your scalpel!
Awesome montage! I seriously think you are the best mechanic on youtube. I've learned so much from your videos. I actually got a little teary eyed at the end seeing you so happy with your teeter tot that you nursed back to life! Keep up the great work!

A three year time lapse video! Starts from working on your back from your home garage to working under a lift at your shop. A video of evolution in more ways than one! Awesome work Sarah!
An icon of the channel. There will be more!
Whomever wins this car had better call it "Sarah". You truly put your heart, soul and love into it. Huge respect for your skills, knowledge, attention to detail and your work ethic.
Someone is going to be very happy with the TT. I had no idea how worked it was when you bought it! Great job lady!
Whoever wins the Teeter Tot will have the most amazingly documented piece of Audi resto history to cherish - and Drive!. Your blood, sweat and guts went into this project hugely. Much respect!
I didn't notice before but you pretty replaced everything mechanical on this car! Great work!
This flat out confirms, once again, that you really do not give up on anything Sarah. A truly outstanding compilation of work, experiences and memories you put together for all of us to commemorate the three-year journey.
It wasn’t that long ago, but when I think how much you’ve grown and how the channel has evolved - it seems you were itty bitty. CONGRATS ON ALL YOUR GROWTH AND SUCCESS!!
The only thing that has come further is your confidence and the way you present your self in videos with confidence and humor!!!! your amazing!!!!
Congrats on 400K kiddo!!!😊👍🎉🎉🙏🏻❤️🥂🥡🍾🥃🎂🍣
The nostalgic music made us feel what you probably feel. Not going to be easy to let it go after all that. Respect Sarah. You make us smile
I hope whomever is the recipient of your automobile will truly appreciate and care for it, the work and detail to excellence of craftsmanship has been on full display, you entertained us through the journey and taught us many thing's, for that I thank you, I'll look forward to your next project with anticipation, great job, you should be very proud of your accomplishments.
I feel like I’ve watched you raise a kid over the years working in TT and now it’s time to let them leave the nest. You’re fine a great job.
Dig your channel! You do incredible work and you should be proud of the time you've put into "Teeter Tot"!
My gosh, watching you work before you had a lift was almost painful!
I think we viewers are just as happy about your new shop as you are. :-)
I have followed the TT since the day you two brought it home. Amazing job on the build and you dedication and work ethic shows throughout. I think that it is better than it was off the assembly line many years ago.
No doubt. Audi engineering department should be taking notes.
People who aren't into cars dont understand. You sacrifice sometimes years of your life to create something special. The "just a car" in the parking lot is a piece of you and it always will be. Congrats on successful lifeforce transfer Sarah you gave this TT another chance to bring smiles. 👍
Epic job, I have a TT 225 and it goes like an absolute rocket.. but yours.. the sound when that Turbo kicks in.. insanely nice!
It should be close to 300whp with that F23 turbo now, it’s such a huge improvement from where I started.
You have put years of labor, blood, sweat, and tears into this project. What a very fine mess that you have turned into a very fine car.
Be very proud of yourself Sarah, you done a fantastic job. What's next?
Excellent recap!
Nice retrospective on the potato. Quite an accomplishment...well done. 👍
Amazing transformation from where Teeter Tot started to where it is now. Looks almost brand new.
Aww...Small Sarah is such a cutie pie! Thanks for the vid, Sarah. I know it took you time, effort, and emotion to compile it. We appreciate you. 💝💝💝
It’s amazing that no matter how big a problem on the car you had you stayed focused on solving everything to perfection. Can’t wait to see you on the Ranger journey. Keep up the great content.
What a great rebuild bio vid of the TT. So many memorable moments. Thanks Sarah. 👍
Who could have guessed it would only take you 13 minutes/35 seconds to restore that TT!! Gotta be a record. I've really enjoyed this build from beginning to end and look forward to your next crazy adventure with great anticipation.
😢 I'm sad to see TeeTer ToT leave, but it was a fun ride. ☺ Thanks for the memories! 🤗
I forgot it had been 3 years.
You turned it from a rotting potato into a sexy beast with some class and moves it never had before.
Great montage
You should do either a garage/shop tour with all of your tools you use, or just a tool box tour.
Love the content!
high five from the PNW!
Dear Sarah...you did an AMAZING job on the TT! Your grit and unrelenting drive to FINISH this car are a wonderful example for others. ☺️
I hope whomever wins this car appreciates it, appreciate the fact that a vanpire was in the sun aand rain and stress to build this, much respect to you sarah
Each platform showcases talents I would call "continous learning". You are a power, humble and smart, classy. I'm all in...
There is so much of you in this car build it is almost heartbreaking thinking about what you are going through to give it away. I personally would love you to keep it forever as a representation of your skill and devotion.

Well that was more emotional than I expected! Was fun watching this project 👍🏼
crazy that you drove that home. But so cool too
Watching this step back in time I realized I miss the days when you worked in your home garage, Butters, and the funny intros.
The amount of time effort pride and attention to detail shows in the stunning end result !!. Give yourself a huge pat on the back for doing a truly amazing job

Loved watching you do this. I am so impressed with you, I've been working on cars 55 years and wouldn't tackle some of the stuff you do.
I have nothing to add to "Merlinpop" except to say, "Me, too." Impressive work, Sarah. Congratulations.
Were there many tears during the editing of this lovely narrative cataloging the rebirth of this tasty potato snack?
Yes.
@@SarahnTuned 🥲
It's amazing to see how much the TT changed and you changed in the time you worked on it. Maybe you were the TT project.
You sure have put some major hours into this machine!!! Impressive!!!
Ya. Probably $125k in parts and labour.
Wow, you really gave life back to this potato. I guess it must feel happy now, and I know whoever wins it will feel the same.
You're amazing, loved every second of it.
Fantastic tribute to the TT. How thorough one can be with a bit of OCD. Enjoyed every moment of it. Hope the new owner takes care of it well. Great work Sarah!
I truly believe this car is what helped you grow. Amazing work ethic Sarah. So proud of you.
Yep, been here since day 1. The pain and lessons learned with this thing. Staggering! 👏🏻🙏🏻
Really hope the winner appreciates all the sweat and tears you sunk into this. 👍🏻
You chose an awesome soundtrack to go with this transformation. The person who gets this vehicle is so lucky. Keep posting and your fans will keep watching!
Ah how far we've all came during this journey with you. Can't wait for the give away now.
Sarah, I'm thinking you are bawling like a baby having to see this culmination of 3 years go bye-bye into someone else's garage. I can't imagine pouring that much love and sweat into something just to see it drive off into the sunset with someone else as its permanent new owner. Air hugs, my dear. AIR HUGS!
Hello, I have been following your renovation steps for quite some time and I admire your serious work, it is a real pleasure to watch your videos. 3 years of work is a lot, I have a 2007 TT MK2, which I maintain carefully and people already take me for a fool, but this is pure perfectionism. respect. Hello from France. Johan.
It occurs to me that I don’t recall the acquisition of the car, so I hadn’t discovered your channel until you were well along in the before-times of working on it. So thanks for editing up the timeline video, it does show just how huge an undertaking it was, and how truly impressive your determination and abilities are.
