I bought a totalled car in the US and fixed it in my driveway because of you! I had numerous "oh shit, what have i done" moments. But to my complete amazement, I successfully repaired the car, and drive it daily now! One of my proudest moments, at 55 years old.
Right... this video hit me pretty hard. I worked hard and saved for over 4 years to fulfil my father's dream. A convertible Mustang in wine red. But unfortunately he didn't survive his heart attack. Half a year longer and I could have fulfilled his dream. Spend time with your parents, it can be over quickly!
@@jamesbarber5410 My dad was only 45, massive heart attack and no warning. Most cars were pretty boring back then and he was supporting three young kids but I know he’d have had some nice cars in later life. Am 69 now and still miss him to this day !
I cried twice watching this rebuild; first when the engine started second when he gave his dad the Ferrari. This really made me miss my dad. Wonderful content!
I watched this whole video from 12 - 5am with all the ads. I felt like I was there fixing the Ferrari with you guys. Such a beautiful car. Congrats to you and your dad. There’s nothing more special than spending such quality time building something special together and at the end gifting it to him. Well deserved. Good on ya mate.
Damn, Mat!!!! 1hr23mins in and I have already learned soooo much from this video. Not least of which is the love and respect you have for your dad, your determination to see an almost impossible job to a successful conclusion, and the friends and fans you have to lend a hand, donate an engine, loan a torque press, share an internal engineering document etc etc. Amazing work. Inspiring! And I don't even drive an ICE! You have a new subscriber. More updates as I watch the rest... 2h09mins you are a true engineer. Despite not having the technical training or manual for the machine, you work from first principles to solve issues and you apply logic, research and testing to confirm a hypothesis and find a solution. 2h26mins NEVER EVER SAY YOU DON'T HAVE TALENT! You lack formal Ferrari training and documentation. Talent? You've got fxxx tons. Your dad and your mates too. Anyone else rebuilt a Ferrari engine, gearbox, and associated dependencies on their first Ferrari? Talent? Pluuuleeeeze. 2h41mins who knew dry ice could be used for degreasing and cleaning? 2h53mins THE END. Superb. Simply superb.
my dad died in January, and i miss him so much. And you making your dad happy like that, will be you with you forever. Even watching this made me cry thinking about mine.
I was in tears when it started on the second kick, and again when the transformation was proven to be in neutral. Your Da's jump for joy was priceless! Congrats on doing a successful project with your Dad, and a Ferrari no less. That was a long time dream of mine to do with mine, before he passed on. But watching you two was a near-best thing, thank you both very much. Forza!
WOW, Dude. Love that you gave that car to your dad...you are the mann. I am literally in tears. My dad died 38 years ago when I was 15. When I bought my first 4x4 pick up truck I cried because I would have loved to take my dad on a drive to the beech. We used to fish a lot together, but couldn't afford a beech vehicle at the time. It's great that you guys work together...from South AFRICA.
Nothing better than working with your Dad. Watching Dads face, when you gave him the Ferrari was the best feeling. I can only imagine what was going through his head. Disbelief, Love for you Mat, Pride for his son and holding back his tears. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You are the epitome of what every father dreams of. You embody strength, compassion, and resilience, making your dad endlessly proud. Every dad on this planet longs for a son as remarkable as you.
I watched every minute of this video twice, and think it's amazing! What better ending than to give your father the car! My father and I had a plan to rebuild an old muscle car, after he retired soon...he had race cars he sold when I was born...he was a diesel mechanic by trade, and grew up in a transmission shop his father owned. I grew up in a garage, helping, learning, and doing routine maintenance, and aftermarket parts once I was driving. My father had a severe stroke, just 6 weeks before retirement, and one a year to the day another stroke, that completely debilitated him. He has dementia now, and is in a rest home. Watching your father in the garage with you through all your videos, reminds me of all the great times I had growing up working on cars, and time we spent together. I just wonder sometimes and especially seeing content like this, what would have decided to build, and the sense of accomplishment at the end...✌️
Mat, your explanations are so clear to follow… for example water getting in the cylinder, which the piston can’t compress, so the con rod bends, as it’s the weakest link. Brilliant stuff 😊
Tavarish giving you that engine was some of the best PR work I think I've ever seen being pulled off! Well Done Tavvy, great PR work. And as regards to Mat Armstrong, well, good luck in all your endeavours, just keep going for it and you won't go far wrong!
I love all of these full build videos from Matt. I thoroughly enjoy watching him and his crew and his dad working together. Some of the best content and the kindest dudes in the automotive world.
I'm going to be honest. I've never sat and watched any rebuild car videos all the way through, but this one. I am so jealous that I watched you and your dad built that Ferrari. I wish I had your experience and did something with my son. Unfortunately, he lives in the UK, and I live in Australia, also i havent seen him since he was 5 and his 17 now. But to have that bond with him like you and your dad would be a blessing. You are blessed to have that bond and love your work.
I’m 34, my dad left when I was 7. Never once did I need him or miss him… until I seen mat and his father’s relationship and that shit is so special I’m sad I missed out on that but I’m happy mat taught me more than my sperm donor ever did. Thanks mat and I hope you truly know how lucky you are to have an old man like you do!
Ya know…. I have had just about the rockiest of dad son relationships. And I used to think that dads are not all they’re cracked up to be . Took me moving away (far away) for us to realize that it was no way for us to be . But now , we’re allll good I’d be lost without the few words I get from him a month. And for that I am sorry to hear there are people out there in your shoes. But I’m super happy to see you’ve made it against all odds
Watching this build come together was amazing in itself. Seeing your dad as was speachless... man, that's priceless. As a guy who misses his dad (9 years later), for me the icing on the cake was watching your dad pulling away. Whose chopping onions.
Hey Matt. I follow you araound for quite a while now. As a car enthusiast I think its more than logical to follow your channels. Usually I do not interact a lot with youtubers, being more of a "quiet" viewer, but let me say you I really appreciate your work and admire how you and your dad tackle all those challenges with all those different cars. YOu guys are doing an awesome Job. Also for the rest of the Team and Hannah, but I really wish you all the best for all projects. Having never had a "real" dad that would ever had encouraged me to work on things like this makes me realize ( with my now 40) years that I might have missed a lot over the years. Not complaining, because I was used to be on my owen since my 16th year of life but still this shows how it should be. I´m sure you guys had your fights and differences as well but you stick together and work on those sometime impossible challenges to make it work. Thank you so much for that content. Maybe we meet one day just to exchange some words maybe not. Still want to say, thank you so much. Much love and appreciation from Germany.
This is an epic video that sets the standard for this type of rebuild. Presenting the car to your dad was incredible...you two have a special bond. You are the best. The only thing missing at the end was dad and son hugging.
You don't know how lucky you are to have a dad like him, and a great relationship like yours! That's great you gave your dad the car, would be an awesome feeling no doubt. Good on you Mat, you're a legend mate! I love watching you succeed! Keep it rolling man.
Freddy giving you the engine is the Pinnacle of American car culture. I have seen two competitors share parts on the weekends at the drag strip. I have seen them put actual sweat equity into their opponents vehicles as well to get them back going and be able to have a good clean competition. Over here if you're a gearhead you're family.
I know next to nothing about cars. Yet I watched this all the way through. How is it that you’re not a mechanic or a filmmaker yet you excel in both disciplines? You’re an inspiration mate.
@@wadeheying7117 I think I saw one of his videos where he said he’d never done stuff like this before and that he wasn’t a mechanic. I think btw not sure
Love this channel, hard work, perseverance , willingness to learn, dreaming big, lots of laughter, surrounded by family…all with a focus on rebuilding exotic cars…not sure it could get any better…keep it up MA and team!!
Your dad makes the channel so wholesome. He really does deserve it. There is nothing better than bonding with your dad. He needs to be in the video for my 👍 like.
Beautiful moment..almost made me cry bruh, wish I had a dad like yours. He's genuinely a great person, we can all feel the energy he radiates wherever we are across the world. So yea, another excellent vid fam and love from Jamaica 🇯🇲 to you and the entire team 👊🏽
The wheels at the end 🔥 Cherish the moments with your dad. My father still helps me at the age of 74. They are built different. The build was fantastic to watch!!
You are really genius ❤ My eyes became full tears when you gave the Ferrari's key to your dad . Nothing bether than making your dad happy in this world.
Its insane that We all watched this when they came out, and we all watch it again! Its a combo of your accent and car content, it feels enough like top gear. Thank you Mat
Loving the editing and footage of actually taking the engine apart,more in depth.This channel just gets better.Keep up the good work you are the best on UA-cam
I’m 60 worked and built cars from a small boy with my brother and late dad we all work or worked on cars petrol heads . I watch every episode of your builds Matt thoroughly enjoy every minute . The bond you have with your dad I have with my only son Kyle it’s great to have them as best mates as well as great sons . These start to finish builds I find addictive a watch every one you’ve done your a star buddy humble fun and patient god bless you all Dave 🙏🏻🇬🇧👏👏👏
I would rather you guys assemble an engine because you care and if not done right it personally could cost you and your dad even though he didn’t know it is car.
Best part was You handing the key over to your Dad....How nice of You & How Cool & Blessed you are to have his support & love......I have non of that with my Dad
I actually learned more about engineering from watching this video alone than I ever have doing anything related to it. Authenticity and passion is your superpower folks.
Watching Hanna help push a Ferrari off the lift? The single best moment of the day.(wow! I wish I could be more complementary & charming.) Mat, you are doing quite well too!
Hope you guys make more of these full build episodes videos, really good to sit and watch for a couple of hours, really enjoyed watching the rebuild again 👍
I watched this series on and off as it was released, but was great to watch it all again from start to finish. The ending when your dad got the car and tore off down the road was just perfect. Love following your car journey everything seems so real and genuine 🙂
Watched the full video in fact pretty much watch all your videos. Just want to say you truly are inspirational Mat what a hard worker you are. You just refuse to be beaten. You truly deserve all the success coming your way. 👍
Fantastic build lads. To finish it off by giving it to your Dad after all his help on your other builds shows the true great character of you Mat. Well done Lad. Quality.
Hadn't joined the channel to see the beginning of this build but caught the end when you gave it to your dad, which was awesome AF! Didn't know Tavarish gave you the engine. The man! GG Freddy
The ending gets me every time. Knew it was coming but still... Your Dad is the best, Your crew are the best, the editing is top notch, I feel like I known all you for years. By far my fav content creator on YT. Long may it continue.
Don't sell yourself short young man. You have a bucket load of talent and an understanding of the overall system you are dealing with.your going to do even better then you already have! I'm a fan for sure!
Hi Mat, I have watched you fix a number of cars, and I thought I was subscribed. I subscribe to everything I watch. I have watched you fix at least 6 or 7 cars. I watched you put together your garage. Maybe I should have said I watched you expand it. I opened up my phone, and it said subscribe. I just looked at my TV, and of course, if my phone said subscribe. Well you get what i'm saying. I know that when you are the man fixing the car that it's going to get fixed regardless of how bad things are. I have watched you take something that looks absolutely unfixable. But you never get deterred, you never get discouraged. You always come up with a solution. So as I watched you going through the Ferrari F430 that you're fixing right now. In my mind in my heart it felt like every single disaster you looked at inside that car. I said to myself he just touched another piece of gold. This is a cakewalk for Mat.
Almost made me cry at the end such a beautiful thing that not everyone understands how you can take such an abused car that not many people would see much in did you guys just make it look like a completely different vehicle. your dad is a great man
I've always "worked" on cars (limited stuff, brakes, oil, coolant stuff etc.) but this video is such an amazing visual teaching aid as to how the engine and it's parts actually work. Learning from every video! Love this and Mat's main channel. Love from Canada!
I bought a totalled car in the US and fixed it in my driveway because of you! I had numerous "oh shit, what have i done" moments. But to my complete amazement, I successfully repaired the car, and drive it daily now! One of my proudest moments, at 55 years old.
Proud of you mate
55 and still doing what you love good job🎉
That’s awesome. Persistence pays off
What car was it?
congrats mate
It was awesome to see you give your dad this Ferrari, he's such an amazing person ❤
To those who still have dad's in their lives, cherish them.
So true, my dad passed away when I was 12 !
Right... this video hit me pretty hard.
I worked hard and saved for over 4 years to fulfil my father's dream.
A convertible Mustang in wine red.
But unfortunately he didn't survive his heart attack.
Half a year longer and I could have fulfilled his dream.
Spend time with your parents, it can be over quickly!
😅😅
Mine passed this last weekend at 62 from lung cancer and when they’re gone they are gone.

Again...beginning to end I totally wasted another day listening to you laugh and seeing Tony cry.
I actually cried a tear of happiness when you gave it to your dad.well done that was very sweet and thoughtful and generous of you.
Gee thanks for just totally spoiling the video trying to come in here and see if anyone gave him torque specs .. .. smh .. ..
oi beht his fahva is weal prhouhd
@@DavidDiaz-zp4hu Truer words could not have been said.
Good on you Mat - like your style sir. Respect to your dad.
Tavarish giving you that engine what a act of kindness,
And to be honest if Tavarish didn't gave that engine to Mat this project wouldn't be economically viable. Only for sake of content.
@@delijasasevera2212 sounds like you've never had a true friend before, shame
Well that’s not the first time Tavarish has came thru with such a generous act
Matt gave him almost a brand new Porsche GT3 for nothing, so this is the least he could do.
While he's letting him use his shop and tools!!! Where can I get a friend like him
my dad died in January, and i miss him so much. And you making your dad happy like that, will be you with you forever. Even watching this made me cry thinking about mine.
I know how you feel, my dad left us on the 31 Jan 2024, we miss him so much. Great to watch this with his dad.
Sorry for ur lost I hope u enjoy ur day
I lost my Bio dad I never met in 2015 and my Father that raised me since I was like 2 months old this past November. It sucks.
@@Marine2111usmc same my dad passed away in 2019 its been 5 years now but man i miss him 😪
Yep me too. A month ago now.😢 hold your dads tight, you never know when you won’t be able to anymore.
Shout out to all the dudes out there missing their dads watching this 🙌
Thanks mate, that was a really beautiful moment
I was in tears when it started on the second kick, and again when the transformation was proven to be in neutral. Your Da's jump for joy was priceless!
Congrats on doing a successful project with your Dad, and a Ferrari no less. That was a long time dream of mine to do with mine, before he passed on. But watching you two was a near-best thing, thank you both very much. Forza!
Took me 2hrs 32 mins to realize I've watched this build already. This is quality content Mat
Same 😂
I already watches it to but I still watched it again
Lmao, took me 7 mins, but feel similar
Lol
I only realised when they had to put it in first gear by hand lol
WOW, Dude. Love that you gave that car to your dad...you are the mann. I am literally in tears. My dad died 38 years ago when I was 15. When I bought my first 4x4 pick up truck I cried because I would have loved to take my dad on a drive to the beech. We used to fish a lot together, but couldn't afford a beech vehicle at the time.

He knows he'll be getting it back soon as mans got one toe on the bucket ..
@@DavidDiaz-zp4hubro, what a way to look at the world
Your Dad is always smiling, such a joy just to watch you two together. Great job!
So glad you got you father working for you. You had great videos before but with him in them. They are so much better.
Brings tears to my eyes, I'm not a mechanic but I love machines. Thanks for saving this majestic horse, the design is so timeless! ❤
Nothing better than working with your Dad.
Watching Dads face, when you gave him the Ferrari was the best feeling.
I can only imagine what was going through his head.

Only thing better than working with your dad, is working with your son. Well, it's a close tie. God is good, all the time, all the time, God is good.
You are the epitome of what every father dreams of. You embody strength, compassion, and resilience, making your dad endlessly proud. Every dad on this planet longs for a son as remarkable as you.
This comment made me feel like I have failed my father as a son
I watched every minute of this video twice, and think it's amazing! What better ending than to give your father the car!
My father and I had a plan to rebuild an old muscle car, after he retired soon...he had race cars he sold when I was born...he was a diesel mechanic by trade, and grew up in a transmission shop his father owned. I grew up in a garage, helping, learning, and doing routine maintenance, and aftermarket parts once I was driving. My father had a severe stroke, just 6 weeks before retirement, and one a year to the day another stroke, that completely debilitated him. He has dementia now, and is in a rest home. Watching your father in the garage with you through all your videos, reminds me of all the great times I had growing up working on cars, and time we spent together. I just wonder sometimes and especially seeing content like this, what would have decided to build, and the sense of accomplishment at the end...✌️
Mat, your explanations are so clear to follow… for example water getting in the cylinder, which the piston can’t compress, so the con rod bends, as it’s the weakest link. Brilliant stuff 😊
I really enjoy having your Dad in the videos...!!! He's got a great sense of humor..!!! 😊
Your dad is such a rare dad you’re so lucky to have him in your life Matt. I look up to your relationship with him ❤
Tavarish giving you that engine was some of the best PR work I think I've ever seen being pulled off! Well Done Tavvy, great PR work. And as regards to Mat Armstrong, well, good luck in all your endeavours, just keep going for it and you won't go far wrong!
Tavvy? WTH? 😂😂😂

Your Dad is hilarious. You’re a great guy for giving him the car you two shared time restoring. Time and money well spent. Keep it up.
The ending made my cry. Such a wonderful thing giving the car to your father.
Pure engineering marvel of a masterpiece. I have never loved watching a UA-cam video more than this. Simply breathtaking work from Matt and his dad.

I have no dad
I like that you show plenty of work vs 80% talk and 20% work!
This was hands down the best revive and drive video I’ve ever seen in my 45 years on this planet.
Thank you.
Absolutely loved this one Matt. Giving it to your Dad at the end was just the icing on the cake ❤
Dear Matt thank you for sharing this with those of us who never had a chance like this with our Dad's we are grateful 🙏 .❤
Actually brought a tear to my eye. Your dad's a legend.

Authenticity and passion is your superpower folks.
That was REALLY Great of you to give it to your dad! I wish I had that kind of time with my dad. Cherish every moment. Great Build!!
Ive watched the last part a couple of times and tear up everytime. Miss my dad you are blessed to have such a awesome dad.
Watching Hanna help push a Ferrari off the lift? The single best moment of the day.(wow! I wish I could be more complementary & charming.) Mat, you are doing quite well too!
Hope you guys make more of these full build episodes videos, really good to sit and watch for a couple of hours, really enjoyed watching the rebuild again 👍
I watched this series on and off as it was released, but was great to watch it all again from start to finish. The ending when your dad got the car and tore off down the road was just perfect. Love following your car journey everything seems so real and genuine 🙂
You're Dad is a gem. His launch when you fuck up is gold... All fun, but his expertise
This is by far my favorite build. I'm not the biggest fan of Ferrari mind you, but doing this for your old man, that just takes the cup.
Absolutely LOVED this! Matt needs his own TV show!
Watched the full video in fact pretty much watch all your videos. Just want to say you truly are inspirational Mat what a hard worker you are. You just refuse to be beaten. You truly deserve all the success coming your way. 👍
Fantastic build lads. To finish it off by giving it to your Dad after all his help on your other builds shows the true great character of you Mat. Well done Lad. Quality.
Most impressed by you putting that gearbox back together and having it work with no documentation. great job!!!
Hadn't joined the channel to see the beginning of this build but caught the end when you gave it to your dad, which was awesome AF!
Didn't know Tavarish gave you the engine. The man! GG Freddy
It's 1am and I have an interview tomorrow. Fuck it.
GL!
Good luck with the interview
Says a lot about the channel 💪🏼😂Good luck pal. Let us know how it went?
Throw a spoon in the fridge and press it your eyes tmr morning, reduces the puffiness
All the best tomorrow. Enjoy the video too! 😂
The ending gets me every time. Knew it was coming but still...
Your Dad is the best, Your crew are the best, the editing is top notch, I feel like I known all you for years.
By far my fav content creator on YT. Long may it continue.
Freddy giving you the spare engine shows how important of a friend you are to each other. Damn amazing
Freddy is the reason why I use all my spare time on waching car rebuilding videos. been following you since the audi, and got hooked after the s5
One of those UA-camrs where you like the video before you even watch it
I think this one of the best episode between matt and his dad...awesome
Don't sell yourself short young man. You have a bucket load of talent and an understanding of the overall system you are dealing with.your going to do even better then you already have! I'm a fan for sure!
Hi Mat, I have watched you fix a number of cars, and I thought I was subscribed. I subscribe to everything I watch. I have watched you fix at least 6 or 7 cars. I watched you put together your garage. Maybe I should have said I watched you expand it. I opened up my phone, and it said subscribe. I just looked at my TV, and of course, if my phone said subscribe. Well you get what i'm saying. I know that when you are the man fixing the car that it's going to get fixed regardless of how bad things are. I have watched you take something that looks absolutely unfixable. But you never get deterred, you never get discouraged. You always come up with a solution. So as I watched you going through the Ferrari F430 that you're fixing right now. In my mind in my heart it felt like every single disaster you looked at inside that car. I said to myself he just touched another piece of gold. This is a cakewalk for Mat.
I came for the project, stayed for your dad!
Keep these videos coming Mat 🇿🇦
Saffa love it bruuuu !👌💪🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🤝
You hear the Amapiano at 26:00
When Matt gave the key to his dad I must admit. I got a little choked up.. Nice job guys...
Almost made me cry at the end such a beautiful thing that not everyone understands how you can take such an abused car that not many people would see much in did you guys just make it look like a completely different vehicle. your dad is a great man
i was like "3 hours, there's no way I'm watching it all!" and her I am watching your dad receive his Ferrari!
sick video guys
Stop making me sleep late
Mats dads laugh is contagious!!! I love seeing him on the channel!! He also seems like such a humble man!!!
I've always "worked" on cars (limited stuff, brakes, oil, coolant stuff etc.) but this video is such an amazing visual teaching aid as to how the engine and it's parts actually work. Learning from every video! Love this and Mat's main channel. Love from Canada!
“he told me to shut up!?” 😂😂
to think you spent 60% of my yearly wage in one shopping trip depresses me 😂
You are not alone.🤣
