    I have great respect for you for building the 2014 car yourself. I've been following you on your homepage for a long time. I'm really excited to see what the car will look like on the race track. I have great respect for your work and what you do have reached there. It's nice that there are people like that

    Great work, looking good. I must say though, I've been a F1 fan for 45 years and in my opinion those noses in the early 2010s were a monstrosity but apart from that you've got a lovely car there. Glad to see you're getting there... 🏎️🏁

    Hey, fan of the series and have been following you since you started the restoration project. I was wondering if you'll start recording these in higher resolution? I figure if you're documenting your hard work, it'd be nice if we can see the awesomeness in more detail. 480p is a bit rough nowdays, no intention to insult or anything of course. I'd just love to see the car(s) better is all :)

    What a commitment getting this car back on the road, but also been following this project since the start of it. Got a weak spot for people who are putting their hart and soul (and lots of money) into a project in which they believe, so massive kuddo's too you Kev. As requested here if you can upload in a higher definition that would be much appreciated but your working on that one too so waiting for the next video to air. You also showed you have the old car of Beitske Visser, nice and does she know's you have her old car? Think she would like that and maybe she could help you in the future, you never know. So how much did the engine make on the dyno, or did I miss that?

    New here, found this video randomly on youtube feed but i'm glad. this looks like a think i want to see and two things that i want to say.
    On dyno part I saw a V8 engine, did you swap it or what ever to get more live from it?
    and second thing is the quality, although more than 480p isn't really needed, for pepole that have higher resolution monitors its a bit hard to watch but dosn't really matter

      No it's not. I think it's like an F2 engine. At 08:35 you can see the spacer used to fit it to the chassis.

    I don’t know what the technical term for your fast fades from one short clip to the next is called - but I don’t recall anyone else using it on UA-cam. It makes me feel ill. Please revert to a straight cut from one scene to the next - no blurry fades in quick succession. Makes it hard for the eyes to refocus quickly - verging on nauseous after watching this video. Stop trying to be cute in your editing - longer clips & no distracting blur would be a big improvement. Your project is fun - but not to watch…
