    I forgot something, Car audio. Lol. It doesn't matter what people come out with today. Old school Rockford and the original Alpine equipment... unbelievable quality. Thanks for adding that.✌️

    Damn I wish I had mine!! Back in the early 80's I was one of those guys at the Street races Crenshaw Blvd then on Jefferson Blvd & Houser/ LaBrea it was on!! Way before they made Crenshaw with all these Islands. It was open four lanes. Cars all up and down the Shaw!! At least 2-3miles bumper to bumper each side!! Miss those days. Hard to find one in California now. But they're all over Australia. Smh. Mann this bro is taking me back!! I know all those places where he's talking about!! Wow!!

    I felt like throwing up when his car got hit in that show. You could tell he was struggling and was happy as hell to be racing even just for a bit in that show, and everything got sour real quick. Glad to see him back in the racing game.

    Killer job on a real deal interview. I've been a rotary guy forever. Here in Iowa we never had things available as far as mods. Abel, it was a thrill to hear your story. In the end, life is about the the story. Nice job everyone ✌️🏆

    That’s what’s up. Saw the Netflix series and was hurt when the car got hurt. But thank goodness it’s been repaired with the help of those generous people. God bless you and those that helped bring your ride back to pristine condition.

    I just subscribed thanks! I remember Abel from Rob Dahm’s channel. I live in Goleta California and still own my first car since I was 15 . It’s a 72 RX-2 . I just installed a HP 13B NA engine and a Five speed RX-7 transmission. Not tuned yet. Would you be willing to ask Abel for me what wheels he is running on that and please let me know? My car is also red and those wheels look incredible! Also ask if a stock from and rear hub layout will accommodate those wheels? I appreciate this. I hope to sometime drive my to one of your meets down south. Thanks, Rob
