      That's why it was so great lol. The Car throttle guys do those quotes all the time. So his rendition (fitting in so close to his natural accent) made me do a double take. But it was definitely intentional.

      That side panel that came off cleanly was because I took that one off and replaced it when I owned it. It didn’t come off that easily, the other panel is more along the lines of what it’s really like.

      With all the parts they took off & won't be using again, like wings, bumpers, interior etc & could of sold them, you suggest polishing & selling the headlights, parts they actually are keeping on the car

    • @DelsinLabonte
      @DelsinLabonte 2 роки тому +42

      Nah, he’s right. There’s tons of money in those parts. They bought it for dirt cheap, literally no money in USD, and those parts in the US are worth tons. You could sell off each individual piece, and have enough money to buy a drivable MR2. Of course this is going to be an off-road car, but the facts still remain.

    As a 2zz turbo modified Spyder owner in Australia, this was heartbreaking to watch you tearing off panels. I know the MOT and salt roads are harsh on cars over in the UK, but these cars unmodified fetch equal to around 7000 pounds here. God it looks fun Alex but it hurts to watch lol

Though I feel jacks anxiety while Alex rips panels off like a pissed off chimp in a safari park lol. Keep up the great work doing what you do. P.s if you going off road I would suggest now you have got the extra room in the Frunk to move the radiator further inwards and maybe at a angle to give your new radiator protection and to increase your approach angle.
