Probably one of the best car channels i've seen, for what it counts! 😎👍
It sure does count!
Might want that R8 box to have Dodson parts (inc 2nd gear) in with that sort of power. Ricky at REPerformance is your man.
Brilliant build looking forward to this. Only just found you lads! Bloody great stuff I enjoyed
Cool as hell can't wait to see the progress on this
It's going to be a fun one! Make sure you're subscribed to see our next videos!
Yes. Only thing I'll point out is that rear design. When you open it up and add the wing to it, there will be a metric ton of drag and turbulence. To make the car handle at speed, a solution has to be created. If you build a 1000 hp pick-up but lose 500 hp to bad aero the bed creates, the original hot hatch would've been faster.
You 2 building it and Guy driving it, this is going to be a great project.
We'd have to agree! Stay tuned for the next one, it might look more like a car!
This looks amazing. My new favourite channel 👍
Cant wate to see more of this build. Guna be a weapon.
Can't believe you have so few subscribers. Sure this channel will take off with guy martins name associated with this biuld and the clear skill and knowledge you two have.
We've just 1,000 Subs after only two videos! We're super pleased with how it's going! BUT WATCH THIS SPACE AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Me been from Wakefield, this makes me happy. Guy Martin is a legend. Well done and good luck
You said how good it was having a jig to mount the chassis on, yes, in anything you do, having the right tool works so much more..👍🏻👌
Someones doing the speed.... That thing will be brutal.
No bullshit kind of guys which is fresh and another channel to subscribe to and look forward to their updates 👍
Thanks for the kind words Gary! We're just getting started!
Escort cosworth owner , p100 fan …. I’m definitely following this build 👍🏻👍🏻
Welcome aboard!
New subscriber and new follower on titok love the working man's couch
Guy Martin, Pikes Peak and Time Attack, Wow!!!
A pickup Cosworth!
This is gunna be interesting!
Interesting is one word.
Gonna be rad
Reminds me of a modern day rs200 build! Gonna be a weapon for sure.
A weapon is one word for it.
Please keep uploading regular updates on this build. Sounds amazing so far, and the quality looks spot on. Really looking forward to see how this all goes.
Thanks, will do!
Well im subscribed boys.....cant wait for this build and the rest you show👍🏴
Plenty more to come!
Really really hard to reconcile AASA for WTAC, blue book for UK TA and SFI for Pikes Peak, I don’t think it’s possible to have a cage that is both FIA and Pikes Peak at the moment tho we tried to do the same but in end went with Blue Book when in doubt.
Should be a great build guys,
I bout imagine I'd let the person I'm paying to do something tell me no on a cosmetic decision. No saftey issues or legal shit a pure cosmetic hell no. Then build your own car I'll find some one else.
That mallard green escort Cosworth was a car built by someone called mark at Mk motorsport
He was a bike guy who done lots of cnc work and made loads of bits for super bikes and stuff
Then got a escort cosworth and started to make it into a pickup,
But that must of been 16 years ago now 👍🏻
16 Years ago!?! She's been around aye
@@Co-LabCustomStudios maybe a bit less but around that time give or take a couple of years
Can you not use r8 wishbones and hubs? seen a few others use them now on space frame builds.
We'll take a look that! Thanks for your suggestion.
You could of used a mk3 orion, the front can be made to look like a cossie, its a 5dr, and you could use the rear lights as they are the same as an escos. And then space framed it.
Wow this looks to be an awesome project for an absolutely Super Star, looking forward to the next update. It would be great to see Guy involved in the build as well. Keep up the great work and all the very best for your new business going forward. 😎👍
We don't doubt Guy will be nipping down the shop very soon ;)
@@Co-LabCustomStudiosFantastic, look forward to that as he always makes great content. 😎👍
@@Co-LabCustomStudioshe’s heading to turkey at the minute on his pedal bike. We saw him on the Rotterdam ferry last week 😂
After 1 minute I already love these gentlemen very deeply.
Plenty more to come
Really looking forward to following this build.
Stay tuned Neil!

Welcome aboard!
Great to hear where your going with the project. Need to pop by and get some prices for my subaru welding. Would love to see this once on its wheels
Come on down!
Too much blah, not enough Ca... 😂😂😂
Plenty of more 'car' related stuff coming, we want to show all sides of these builds, and let people in our decision making, and how these builds come about.
Yea, it's a common youtube mistake. Some people think car guys would rather see people talking about cars than actually showing us the amazing work they have done(are doing) ....
Two people making comments like they’re experts, but where’s their UA-cam channel? Shut up and just watch the videos! Ben’s a top, top dude so listen, you might learn something.
People too use to watching the BS "reality" show builds full of drama and cut corners. Good to actually hear about what's going on for a change. Hope the uploads continue. Proper Job!
top lads top work
Is this part one ?
Sure is!
Can you number the episodes/updates so we can watch it in the right order 👍
This is number one, sure will!
Building a car for Guy Martin…… no pressure
We can handle it.
Proper 👌🏻

Looks incredible, proper trick bit of kit that.
It's going to be a weapon!
When you go to America with those accents you will be asked what language do you speak .
Loving the sound of this build guys..
Just you wait!
Why on earth use a 350z engine!?
Guys request ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Can’t wait for this!!!
Plenty more to come!

No comment.

Dyou need any Bos Mawr to help things along ? 😉😜
Regards James.
When you go to America with those accents you will be asked what language do you speak .
Hahaha, quite possible!
Turned it off after the 2nd F.
Shame, you might have enjoyed it.
Can you speak English please, and I’m Australian
The accents the accent we're afraid haha.
Subtitles exist though ;)
You first
Would potentially like to have a build done by you guys. Struggling to find a reputable company that has what it takes. Be interested to see if you could build my vision.
