    What is Ecrew? When I had to uproot and move to Indiana, there was a car community called Bcrew (B for Bloomington, Indiana). These guys became my family. Instead of partying on the weekends, I was working on cars- and I loved it. Since starting youtube, I have started what I call Ecrew. It's a community where you get to take 10min out of your day and be involved in a build, but more importantly it's a family.

    Just over a year ago you responded to my comments about mental health as my girlfriend was in the ICU for a suicide attempt. Good news! After last rites, three code blues, three and a half weeks in ICU, a month and a half total in the hospital, a ton of personal changes, and a new tattoo to commemorate it she is not only surviving, but thriving. The only long term effect was her voice from the tracheostomy. She speaks in whispers, but she's here to speak so that's definitely a win! Thank you for doing The Lord's work with mental health awareness. You are appreciated more than you know.

    Amelia, having a work in an auto body shop and watching thousands of cars being painted and watching the color mixing process I can tell you without a doubt the reason you’re saying the green in the yellow paint colors is because green is part of the mix to get the color right. So you are absolutely right! Good eye!!

    I haven't seen anybody talk about this, maybe I noticed as I just binged all the GT40 videos but that Dean guy really knows his stuff! He said if you got it running "You could sell it all day everyday to someone for $140K-$150K" and your first appraisal was $145K! I wasn't sure if I trusted him at first when you were making the trade but now I see why you trust him and take his word! I'd fully trust him too now!

    I in my humble opinion believe you should build another Daytona, however probably because I'm naturally a smart-ass! I would install an LS7 427 so you could still say it's a Daytona 427, but you not only have more potential than the original, but it's the best, an LS!

    Knowing your a Subaru fan, my opinion for a cool build would be a Subaru SVX. I had a 97 SVX and it has always been one of my favorite cars. Sadly the transmission went out at a time when I was pretty broke and ended up having to sell it. Would love to see you buy and build with that unique E Crew touch an SVX.

    Getting an F40 (IMO) is the absolute pinnacle of a supercar. Yes, there's faster cars out there now but the F40 is a work of art with it's own beautiful soundtrack and an absolute visceral experience when you're driving it. Someday I hope to drive one. I did at least get to sit in one but he wouldn't give the keys up 😂

    I have a 1986 jaguar xj6 that was sitting in a garage for over 20 years. I got it running again but I am having financial and parts problems getting it back on the road. It only has 50,000 miles and was a project for my wife. I have done so much work to it to get it up and running and driving. We planned on fixing it up and showing it at car shows, then ultimately selling it. This car is the last of the Sir William Lyons cars that he built.

We really need to find someone that will be more help with cars and what we will need. And I believe that the car is able to run we ended up loosing the keys but we have been told it starts. This car is supposed to be a first car for my brother we just are really trying to get this car back up and running.

    Since you like bringing cars back to life, buy my 02 mustang Gt. It’s not in too bad shape. Needs a clutch, needs a head gasket and timing chain guide(which just about all of them do) , or you could just swap the engine. Could also use a new drivers seat of course.

    if I could change one thing about your channel it would be that you make some playlists for all your builds so it'd be easier to go back and re-watch some of the ones I like the most.

    Lemon yellow is a cool yellow which means it's is on the green side of the color wheel. So yellows can either be warm or cool. Warm is toward the red side of the color wheel and cool is toward the green side.

    Well, I know this isn’t any kind of high-end sports car, but I do have a 1973 MG midget convertible with 32,000 original miles. It belonged to my grandmother, and she didn’t drive a whole lot. It needs a lot of TLC because when she got a little bit older and wanted to drive an automatic instead, she just parked it in her garage without doing anything to it. It sat in her garage for many years. I’m disabled, so I haven’t been able to do anything with it. My dream is to restore it to its former glory and eventually pass it on to my grandson. He just turned one, so I have lots of time 🙂

    I have a 1984 Corvette. Yes I know. First year of the C4 body. I also know, not many people like this car. I have been working on her for 10 years now. She use to be my daily driver. Back in the day. I love this car. All stock. Recently, she actually tried to kill me. I think she is pissed at me for taking so long to fix her, and put her back on the road. I was working on her in my garage. She started overheating. So I shut her down. Then I tried to release a little pressure, from the radiator. The cap blew, and sprayed 270 degree coolant all over my back and neck. Needless to say, I had 3rd degree burns and I got sick from the coolant running through my bloodstream. It took me 8 months to recover. All the while. Still having to show up at work. That's when I stopped working on her. That was last year, 2022. What she does have. Well still sitting in boxes. New interior. I already had paint and body work done. I took all the rubber side body molding off and filled them. So it does not have side molding any more. It totally change the look. I have replaced, Mostly All sensors and a lot more. She runs and drives. But. She will overheat. Then try to kill you LOL. AND Yes! I call her Christeen now. I want you to know. When you talk about Mental Health. I can tell you. When I am feeling down. I watch one of your videos. after that. I always feel better about what is going on. Thank you for the great videos.

First project is a 1929 roadster with a built racing Flathead V8 that runs, but I spun a main bearing at TROG vintage drags; 2nd is a 70’s stingray vette with an LT4/6spd swap that my son and I are building together; 3rd is a 1935 Ford coupe with a BB Hemi that I’m building for my wife. We do all of these out of my garage at my house in San Clemente. Tons of fun.

    Offer of proof. Captain Kirk's original shirt was green. It showed up gold due to the nature of film processing back in the day. Later in the series, they came up with the re-tailored shirt in a corrected green. Most episodes of _Star_ _Trek,_ however, were filmed with William Shatner in the original gold-appearing shirt.
