I saw the car yesterday and it looks ready, at least from the outside. I met him at Champion Porsche, the mechanics were working on the car (alignment, etc). I asked him and said it will be ready soon.

Hes been flying back and forth from the UK to US, I wonder how much longer these content creators from abroad are able to generate revenue in the US with content and not pay income taxes here at all, or even require work visas since he did just jump on a plane after winning an auction to work in the US for months now.

Seriously, love his content and how much he is teaching us about what is possible and what are the ins and outs of GT3 construction and repair. Just his last video with the steering loom pdk vs. manual and so much more.
He is also humble and if you follow his path, this has been a dream come true for him.
The reason he flies back and forth I believe is that he was not allowed to buy some structural parts here in the US via the dealer so had to get them from UK which doesn't have that limitation.
His dad and girlfriend/wife are cool and he's doing a great job. Can't wait for his next installment.
The Aurum/gold wheels, he himself asked for feedback as he wasn't completely sure if it was working and was an improvement or not. Let's lighten up and enjoy the content, it's just taking a long time to finish, but that shows how complicated and frustrating the process is.
Even just the issue with overheating after coolant flush and how he had to burp the system is educational and useful.
Big fan, keep is coming!

I like his content, the people in here that bitch about it…would never even try to bring back a car like this. YouTube probably pays him money in the UK, so I doubt he has to report it to our IRS as income even though the car is here. I don’t think he will be able to take it back to the UK, they really don’t like gray market foreign cars being brought in. Im guessing he just sells it here. As for the open the reservoir cap coolant burp to purge the air while it’s running, I posted he do that two videos ago. Hmmm maybe I’ll make a claim.

I'd like to see the tally on the parts costs and labor hours involved. It would be interesting to see so that we could all make an individual assessment of "was it worth it"

I agree with others, these videos are very entertaining and informative.
