The smile you had when you let the clutch out for the first time was priceless. Great parents build great kids i've followed you since the tank not missed a single video i have no doubt you are destined to do great things
Yeah, it's an amazing family. My parents didn't do anything with me, and I think that's why I'm lacking in so many areas. This kid is going to change the world.
Thanks to algorithms I landed here, BIG thumbs up. Now I'll work my way to the beginning of this project, Take good care of yourself, by the way you have a seriously nice Fishtail.
This is one of the most genuine channels on UA-cam. Glad you got it running before you step into the next phase of your life. Best of luck in your carrier.
Fantastic! For years I've fantasised about building a sports car around an XK engine. And there, you've gone and done it! The XK is, in my opinion, the best engine in the world, perhaps with the exception of the RR Merlin. Good work lad. Cheers.
OMG! After all the ups and downs here you are victorious! It’s such a cool project and you should be so proud of yourself. Kudos to Dad for his help and support! 👍🏼
The second video..was watching you pre aluminium one... which to was impressive.. Your parents should be really proud of your achievements... I know l would... Well done.. Simon a Brit in Spain 👍
i'm very late to comment, but need to say it. Not sure if you understand the significance of what happens at 6:34, but it's probably the closest thing to the meaning of life. You and your dad both nod in acknowledgement (together) when the engine does exactly what you thought it would. It's confirming, affirming, and because you both share it, endearing. Congrats man; this was such a special moment for a lot of reasons!
I've followed you since the start of this project. Being of a similar vintage to your father, I can feel the pride , and as you are a similar age to my own son, I can sense the feeling of achievement; I also appreciate the contribution of your mother! As a Morgan driver, it was such a joy to see this work of art drive under its own steam. Good luck with your career, we'll wait with bated breath for further updates. Greetings from a fan in the UK
You have a gift and have chosen the right vocation. Your new employer is fortunate to have. I am 80 years old and have watched this complete build in awe.
Not many people of any age can say they built their own car, much less people as young as you! Amazing work all the way through! I hope your new job is as interesting and challenging to you as this build was, because it would be a shame for any company to waste the brains and skills you have! Thanks for bringing us along!
Yes!! Your smile was well deserved! Your mum and dad seemed so proud! My wife asked me why are you grinning like a Cheshire cat? I said I can't help it I feel elated ! I too am proud to see this milestone! Thanks
I can't remember ever being so genuinely excited and happy for people I've never met or will likely ever meet before. When you let the clutch out and drove it made me smile too. Congratulations on so many levels.
The day you'll drive it on the road, don't forget to wear gogles if you want to to drive more than 25mph. Because those Brookland style "windshield" ain't gonna shield from the wind. Talking from experience right here. I'm super happy for you to finally drive it.
You're lucky to have a Dad like that with such a great shop and knowledge. Car looks good, seams in the Boat tail came out nice, proportions are right. Seat to dash looks a little tight. I added 8" to seat area at the bottom of the scuttle and boat tail. Ground clearance can be adjusted by raising the hairpins in the front and steering control. Suspension works! Gives you renewed energy when you take it for a spin! Engine turned dash? Cowhide seat? Knock-offs? Dash mag? Make sure you visit Mullins and the Peterson since you're in California, I did while I was building mine.
As the Brits are want to say: Well Done Laddy Well Done. A shout out to your proud parents as well. You raised a wonderful son and he will carry your love and devotion along his journey! Godspeed
HOT DIGGITY DAMN! Man I tell you what. That smile said it all. Made me drop the phone and do a back flip, more like 180 on my head. HOLY SHLIP. Thats the best feeling in the world. Congratulations. Inspired me to drop the money I have been saving and by my Factory Five Cobra. Ive have been saving and planing it for years. Never a good time just gotta do it. So damn happy for you. Can not wait to feel and that first drive my self now. Been watching this since the day you started up loading for it. Just outstanding. Damn fine work to you and mom and dad.
I have been watching your videos from the start and I must say I am impressed with your skills. I'm a retired Vo-Tech , Autobody teacher from Ocala ,Florida . It usually takes years to master aluminum with the English wheel and the welding ,GREAT JOB! Enjoy your car and be safe. You are a inspiration .Chuck from Florida
Mate , I know there were times during this build that you wanted to smash it to bits , set fire too it and walk away. The fact that you haven't is one of the most impressive things about it. I take my hat off to some serious dedication and a super cool build.
There’s nobody like dad. I am an older man now but I remember my dad he was also a machinist before the days of computers. He worked for Eagle electric manufacturing company Long Island city New York for 40 years, I think the silver cup movie studios are there now. I was always close with my dad working with him pretty much the way you do ❤️🔥God bless you sir❤️🔥 ✨Good luck always.
You should be rightly proud of what you've achieved here, but I can only imagine how your dad feels - "proud" probably doesn't even scratch the surface. So great to see the car moving under its own power at last!
Your joy and your parents’ seeing you drive your creation for the first time - what a wonderful achievement and a moment we’re all so glad and proud to witness. From thinking we may never see the car completed when you went off to SpaceX , to watching you drive around with that huge grin on your face, just awesome man, CONGRATULATIONS and thank you !!
A great project you started as a boy and are completing as a man, Beautiful craftmanship throughout the build. I hope nothing but the best for you in your career. A big thank you to your parents for there obvious love and support. I would recommend you to get a leather helmet and goggles to complete the look. PS I'm envious your first experience driving a standard was a boat-tail speedster where mine was a 72 Datsun truck.
That smile!! Thank you for sharing al of this with us. Congratulations on a job VERY well done. Perhaps when you get it all finished you can show it off on Jay Leno's Garage. He would no doubt have you on.
I’m watching this again. I have had a dream of building my own car from scratch ever since I can remember. You have achieved what I could only dream of. Having the skill and opportunity is no small feat. I felt a certain vicarious thrill watching each and every episode multiple times. Your parents should be immensely proud.
Congratulation, well done man. I'm just speechless. Was sad to see you going away from your project, But I couldn't hope for a better comeback ! Cheers from France. hope you the best
Ohhh man its great to see your car running and driving i say the following for myself and many of the others who have watched and will watch in the future Were proud of you and what youve accomplished here
Really enjoyed another great installment of the speedster build, you are one talented young man with so many brilliant qualities . Again I will look forward to your next installment
I recon I’ve watched every build you’ve made still say your push workmen ship is above all who are your age congratulations on all your accomplishments you will go very far in life it’s like I watched you grow up on You tube I’d love to see what comes next
Massive respect! This has been a courageous project from day 1 and most of the build would have foxed seasoned professionals let alone a high-school graduate. You've been willing to push the envelope at every stage of the build. It's always a pleasure to watch people travel outside their comfort zone when it comes to skill acquisition and thinking laterally regarding problem solving. I'm sure many on here would join me in wishing you every success in your future endeavours. As someone who began a vintage car restoration at 18 and had to abandon it due to a lack of resources and build-space, I've been watching your project with mounting envy and excitement. Kudos!
That ear to ear grin on your face and your dads proud chuckle when you drove it the first time…that’s what it’s all about. Awesome stuff man, awesome stuff.
BIG Kudos!!! Life is a Journey, Enjoy the Ride! Thanks for taking us along for the ride on this part of the journey!... Seeing your smile is worth the price of admission to the "Club of Accomplishment"!👍. Can't wait for parts # 61+. 😁 Kudos Young Man, Kudos!!
I have been watching this build from the beginning. You should be very proud! I know I have been on the edge of my seat these last few videos, knowing the first drive was coming very soon. That is an exciting time of any build. You never forget the first time you get something running or driving! This is sure a good first time driving a clutch too! About the only thing that would have made this video better is if you would have gunned it, dumped the clutch and done some burnouts in the grass, LOL!! That will come with time, haha! Excellent work, keep it up, even if you are on the other side of the country. Research your next steps, collect parts, figure out plans, etc... so when you get home next the work can continue. I know how the long term/long distance projects go, I'm in that situation, most of my toys (antique tractors) are in WI, and I am in ND. Perseverance is key, and you have no shortage of that! Also remember, life goes fast, don't let this project lie dormant too long. I also know how that goes.... I'll be looking forward to the next installment!
From go-karts to race cars I knew exactly how you felt when you got to drive it for the first time. I was right along with you on your ride. Very well done young man.
AWESOME!!!!! The smile on your face is priceless. WELL DONE!!!!!. Congrats on your college degree. Best wishes in the aviation industry. THANK YOU Mom and Dad!!!!!! What proud parents you must be. Looking forward to postings from your next adventure(s). Cheers and admiration.
What a beauty of a machine. Really worth the journey. I would say I can't wait to see it finished but having even more episodes to watch isn't a punishment ;). Awesome job man.
There is nothing like the feeling you get when driving the vehicle you built out of disassociated parts, most of us have never taken it as far as you did starting from the ground up with a whole new car. Congratulations for doing something so few have done.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Great job young fella!! That smile on your face is well worth the blood sweat and tears that go into a build like this!! And congratulations also to Dad and Mum for inspiring and helping you with the whole thing!
That's what dads are for! You can tell he's proud of you. Looks like you're over the last hurdle with the checkered flag in sight, congrats lad on a job well done and sticking with it and seeing it to the end.
I’ve been watching from the start of this project and went back to see your other work. The smile on your face when you first let out the clutch and started driving was clearly one of great accomplishment! Great job!
Hey Buddy boy. I think that most of your fans of this project feel as if we just Graduated College with you. This video might well serve As our collective Graduation ceremony. Extremely grateful for all the hours of enjoyment and inspiration you have provided. I have mentioned Earlier that I am pretty much copying your build. I am just now starting to make my aluminum body. Thanks for that. I agree that your folks are huge supporters, sponsors and grantors of invaluable help. Must be pretty darn great people. Best of luck in California. Regards, Dennis, Olympia, Wa.
That car is beautiful. The lines are so graceful and fast. Kudos to your mom for stepping up. I’m not surprised. You are obviously a product of sound parenting. Congrats on getting that beauty rolling!
I remember when you made that four wheel motorcycle with the valve cover gas tank. You've come a long way. I like the car. Not my style but it keeps getting prettier the longer i look at it. Good fortune to you, continued success and thanks for sharing!😃
"My dad built this little bracket ... which also holds our gastank" - Well done, UA-cam just saw enpassantly where part of the practical ingenuity leading to Your very nice speedster originally came from - Also well done how You added Your own perseverance and didn't just put it aside when college called .... It's hard to decide who of You two is more proud of that first round on the lawn, and for all the different reasons 😁Thanks for sharing, and have fun going places, Young man! It was a lovely, often surprising ride to that first run, which I never not enjoyed all those years.
Well done. It was especially rewarding to hear you acknowledge your parents in the process. Clearly your imagination pulled it together, but without a sincere support network things such as this would be nearly impossible. I wish all kids had similar opportunities. Great Job!!!
I’ve been watching you since you built the tank and have always admired your abilities especially at such a young age. Your skill and craftsmanship is second to none. This was a great episode and I’ve been anticipating it for years now. I don’t know you personally but proud of you for accomplishing driving it and it looks amazing. Not many people can take nothing a build something like a car from it. When you first smiled driving it reminded me of my youth with my father first driving and wrenching with him. Awesome video and congratulations all around.
What a great day! That first ride will be one of many! It has really been fun to go along on this journey with you. Thank you so much for sharing! It’s awesome the support you are getting from your parents! Thanks to them as well!
Well done young man!!!! 👍👍Your parents can be VERY VERY PROUD of you!!!! What you have achieved is really quite amazing you learned a lot of skills ANY MACHINE shop anywhere in the world be proud to have you on their staff pay role, you will be an ASSET to ANY company you work for!!!!!!!!! We look forward to seeing the completed car driving and road legal, your creation is TRULY one of a kind!!!!!!!!!!! Well done young man!!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍
Vince , I am comfortable saying you are a Prodigy doing so many things so well and starting so young .. Today was no different you are the first person in the history of the automobile to NOT stall the car out the first time you released the clutch ???? that was amazing .... Stay well Pete
Amazing accomplishment! Its a beautiful car! Be following since the beginning. Truly one of my favorite channels. Thank you for the years of great content.
The smile you had when you let the clutch out for the first time was priceless. Great parents build great kids i've followed you since the tank not missed a single video i have no doubt you are destined to do great things
Yeah, it's an amazing family. My parents didn't do anything with me, and I think that's why I'm lacking in so many areas. This kid is going to change the world.
@@andoletube mine were absent as well
Totally agree - that big cheesy grin said it all. Nice work, all concerned!
The Smiles and Proud Dad and Mom are worth their weight in gold !!!!! Glad I am still here and will always be here !
Mike Fifer
It's good to see a video with the man behind the young genius, Dad
Thanks to algorithms I landed here, BIG thumbs up.
Now I'll work my way to the beginning of this project,
Take good care of yourself,
by the way
you have a seriously nice Fishtail.
This is one of the most genuine channels on UA-cam. Glad you got it running before you step into the next phase of your life. Best of luck in your carrier.

That's awesome! Good luck!
Proud mom and dad moments there! Excellent work and so happy to see it mobile under its own power! Well done!
The smile on your face and the pride in your Dad's voice says it all.
Nice work!
That smile is why we do what we do. There is no finer feeling than making something with your hand.
Tears of joy on my face, laying here in a hospital bed cheering you on as you make your rounds in the yard.
We here in Finland have been following you since the tank. By petrolheads who graduated in the early 90's. Good job!
Love your work and your attitude!!! Amazing craftmanship!! And that is one proud dad!!!
Brought a tear to my eye
Well done see that big smile as soon as you realised it moves all worthwhile well done great work I know it won’t be your last

That smile and the giggles say it all. I'm so glad I discovered your channel. You're such an inspiration for even a 69 year old man like me.
Your joy and your parents’ seeing you drive your creation for the first time - what a wonderful achievement and a moment we’re all so glad and proud to witness. From thinking we may never see the car completed when you went off to SpaceX , to watching you drive around with that huge grin on your face, just awesome man, CONGRATULATIONS and thank you !!
You are so talented. I've been around these style cars for almost 30 years. Congratulations! I hope you will continue.
your Pop is beaming with pride , heck this made me cry
A great project you started as a boy and are completing as a man, Beautiful craftmanship throughout the build. I hope nothing but the best for you in your career. A big thank you to your parents for there obvious love and support. I would recommend you to get a leather helmet and goggles to complete the look. PS I'm envious your first experience driving a standard was a boat-tail speedster where mine was a 72 Datsun truck.
WOW, WOW, WOW, WOW, so great to see how far this has come, never met you, not related to you, but very proud of you! Freakin awesome!
well done! I've been watching since the beginning. vids were great too. sped up where they needed to be. modest monologues. very entertaining.
That smile!! Thank you for sharing al of this with us. Congratulations on a job VERY well done. Perhaps when you get it all finished you can show it off on Jay Leno's Garage. He would no doubt have you on.
I have been watching this build since day one and I have been waiting for this day for so long now. I am so happy to see you driving it
One of the best things on UA-cam. Watched you make this from start to finish. The smile on your face at the end says everything
@8:20
That smile says it all. Well done Vince.
Best of luck for your future.
I’m watching this again. I have had a dream of building my own car from scratch ever since I can remember. You have achieved what I could only dream of. Having the skill and opportunity is no small feat. I felt a certain vicarious thrill watching each and every episode multiple times. Your parents should be immensely proud.
Congratulation, well done man.
I'm just speechless.
Was sad to see you going away from your project, But I couldn't hope for a better comeback !
Cheers from France. hope you the best
I think my smile was about as big as yours. Been here for the whole shebang. Congrats!!
Ohhh man its great to see your car running and driving i say the following for myself and many of the others who have watched and will watch in the future
Were proud of you and what youve accomplished here
Waaaaaaaay cool. Those have got to be some proud parents. Thanks for sharing this build.
This brought tears to my eyes watching the smile on your face for the first drive . Congratulations !
Really enjoyed another great installment of the speedster build, you are one talented young man with so many brilliant qualities .
Again I will look forward to your next installment
Very Kool. That smile is worth a million LIKES! Well done, very well done. Cheers!
I recon I’ve watched every build you’ve made still say your push workmen ship is above all who are your age congratulations on all your accomplishments you will go very far in life it’s like I watched you grow up on You tube I’d love to see what comes next
Massive respect! This has been a courageous project from day 1 and most of the build would have foxed seasoned professionals let alone a high-school graduate.
You've been willing to push the envelope at every stage of the build. It's always a pleasure to watch people travel outside their comfort zone when it comes to skill acquisition and thinking laterally regarding problem solving. I'm sure many on here would join me in wishing you every success in your future endeavours.
As someone who began a vintage car restoration at 18 and had to abandon it due to a lack of resources and build-space, I've been watching your project with mounting envy and excitement. Kudos!
That ear to ear grin on your face and your dads proud chuckle when you drove it the first time…that’s what it’s all about. Awesome stuff man, awesome stuff.
BIG Kudos!!! Life is a Journey, Enjoy the Ride!
Thanks for taking us along for the ride on this part of the journey!... Seeing your smile is worth the price of admission to the "Club of Accomplishment"!👍.
Can't wait for parts # 61+. 😁
Kudos Young Man, Kudos!!
I have been watching this build from the beginning. You should be very proud! I know I have been on the edge of my seat these last few videos, knowing the first drive was coming very soon. That is an exciting time of any build. You never forget the first time you get something running or driving! This is sure a good first time driving a clutch too! About the only thing that would have made this video better is if you would have gunned it, dumped the clutch and done some burnouts in the grass, LOL!! That will come with time, haha! Excellent work, keep it up, even if you are on the other side of the country. Research your next steps, collect parts, figure out plans, etc... so when you get home next the work can continue. I know how the long term/long distance projects go, I'm in that situation, most of my toys (antique tractors) are in WI, and I am in ND. Perseverance is key, and you have no shortage of that! Also remember, life goes fast, don't let this project lie dormant too long. I also know how that goes.... I'll be looking forward to the next installment!
From one engineer to another, you brought a smile to my face, as old memories were revisited. Congrats!
P.s. I'm a retired engineer, as exciting as my career has been, I expect yours will be an order of magnitude more.
The smile on your face the whole time tells the whole story.
Awesome work. Can't wait to see this thing complete.
You are the proof of an example of a human being can do whatever he/she is passionate for. Very well done. Go for what ever you want....
From go-karts to race cars I knew exactly how you felt when you got to drive it for the first time. I was right along with you on your ride. Very well done young man.
Great to see congratulations! Inspiring! Your dad is so proud, we can hear it in his voice!
AWESOME!!!!! The smile on your face is priceless. WELL DONE!!!!!. Congrats on your college degree. Best wishes in the aviation industry. THANK YOU Mom and Dad!!!!!! What proud parents you must be. Looking forward to postings from your next adventure(s). Cheers and admiration.
Huge build, huge progress. Congratulations. You can literally enjoy this for the rest of your life and hand it down to your kids someday.
What a beauty of a machine. Really worth the journey. I would say I can't wait to see it finished but having even more episodes to watch isn't a punishment ;). Awesome job man.
Truly, congratulations sir! I couldn’t be happier for you!!!!!
There is nothing like the feeling you get when driving the vehicle you built out of disassociated parts, most of us have never taken it as far as you did starting from the ground up with a whole new car.
Congratulations for doing something so few have done.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great job young fella!!
That smile on your face is well worth the blood sweat and tears that go into a build like this!! And congratulations also to Dad and Mum for inspiring and helping you with the whole thing!

Hey Buddy boy. I think that most of your fans of this project feel as if we just Graduated College with you. This video might well serve
As our collective Graduation ceremony. Extremely grateful for all the hours of enjoyment and inspiration you have provided. I have mentioned
Earlier that I am pretty much copying your build. I am just now starting to make my aluminum body. Thanks for that.
I agree that your folks are huge supporters, sponsors and grantors of invaluable help. Must be pretty darn great people.
Best of luck in California. Regards, Dennis, Olympia, Wa.
That car is beautiful. The lines are so graceful and fast. Kudos to your mom for stepping up. I’m not surprised. You are obviously a product of sound parenting. Congrats on getting that beauty rolling!

The look on your face tells it all four years I've been watching you build this car amazing work you're a great inspiration thank you very much
This put a huge smile on my face! Fantastic achievement for years of hard work. Thanks for sharing this moment with us all!
That car is gorgeous. Fantastic work!!
Feeling the pride your Dad convey in his laugh and comments. Not quite the culmination of this project but an amazing achievement so far.
"My dad built this little bracket ... which also holds our gastank" - Well done, UA-cam just saw enpassantly where part of the practical ingenuity leading to Your very nice speedster originally came from - Also well done how You added Your own perseverance and didn't just put it aside when college called .... It's hard to decide who of You two is more proud of that first round on the lawn, and for all the different reasons 😁Thanks for sharing, and have fun going places, Young man! It was a lovely, often surprising ride to that first run, which I never not enjoyed all those years.
One of the best series on UA-cam. I never miss an episode. Congratulations on the first drive!
Not too sure which was the best moment; seeing you drive it or hearing your dad laugh. Priceless!
Your old man has got to be proud! That is one of the coolest builds I have seen.
Well done. It was especially rewarding to hear you acknowledge your parents in the process. Clearly your imagination pulled it together, but without a sincere support network things such as this would be nearly impossible. I wish all kids had similar opportunities. Great Job!!!
