I need to know more about how one procures this stealth bomber paint.
Ed Bolian easy. You have a friend who works at the pentagon
Almost seams perfect for a cannon ball run doesn’t it
I've been wanting radar absorbing paint for years! for umm... reasons.
Big facts
From my knowledge, very dark matte paint does a very good job of absorbing transmitted waves. Although stealth paint on a car probably won't do much if your headlights, windshield, roof rack, etc are glossy/reflective. Along with the smooth contour of majority of cars won't help absorb/deflect radar waves.(hence the sharp angled shape of the stealth planes/ships) just my 2 cents. Try painting a car in "Black 3.0" and you might get somewhere.
"In the middle of nowhere like in Minnesota or something like that"
As a Minnesotan I'm hurt
And this was from someone in El Paso. How ironic.
Don't be
I guess us minnesotant's have all the good stuff!
Nah, middle of nowhere would be Europe.
"...and had a few lemonades with them at one point..."
Tim Otheus hard lemonades?
I still find it funny hearing an English man using American terms for all the parts
Otto-meter
ladndad lol I get fed up trying to explain my self lol
@@Hardupgarage t-shirt idea for the new year English to America conversion? Haha you could have them displayed on the bonnet of the next sema build
Hilarious. 😊
ladndad I think he is a fake. He uses certain words that somebody from England wouldn’t use. I.e. he spams the word buddy in several videos.
That guy is amazing at telling heart warming stories. Glad Europe is starting to get represented at wiki)
Do you know if he has a youtube channel? I would love to watch his videos, although it seems he doesn’t have much time to make them. even a video a month i’d love to watch.
@@spookystudios5772 hard up garage
England isn’t in Europe ;)
@@MakeItWithJim ... geographically it is and will be no matter what happens with the European Union , also Brexit has not happened yet ;)
Just-A-Username But culturally we are more similar to the US, Canada, Australia than are geographic neighbours
This guy seems like he has his mind blown by everything
It's because he has an eye for the details.
It's a big world
The amount of bleeps makes me proud to be British
GrimReaper sIVI as an Irish man I want to be the first one to drop a C bomb on the channel.
I honestly don't understand if he said that he made $20k or lost heaps of cash on the build having only sold it for $20k.
It would be amazing for this bad ass video to be the one video on a Porsche to knock VinWiki over the million subs!!
Proud to be a part of the VinWiki community!! Keep being awesome you legends !!
I was an American Fighter Jet Crew Chief, and I can confirm that the paint used is most definitely not "stealth bomber paint". Cute story, absolutely not correct. Also, our special forces do not fly Apaches.
Last time I was this early, the ride hadn't been re-pimped yet.

Here is a updated listing. This car is for sale 5 minutes down the road from me 😂
The only thing this dude's stories have taught me is that he has no mechanical or fabrication skills, but he's really good at phoning people and asking for free shit...
You all just hit 1 million!!! Congrats fellas , you all make the best content on TH-cam. I could watch these videos 24/7 keep up the hard work!
Busy at my desk selecting O&G crews to deploy overseas while playing VINwiki in the background on my MacBook; liking and commenting - in order to prosper this amazing resource for 2020.
When I win Ed’s I’m Baja-ing it out!
How the US sees UK car guys, upper middle class Sam Fane or working class Sam Hard, absolutely no in between 😂
I've also upset the purists putting underglow on my Porsche Cayman 🤣
If you could turn any interesting car into an off roading monster, what would it be?
A Sesto elemento.
Or maybe a bac mono
Ferrari F40 if money was no issue.
Hmmm honestly any vintage lambo
Deloron
You meet people in life that will change your world, but they're going to be there forever if you treat them right
Take that to 2020 with you 👍
I would love to have something that off the wall. Great build Sam!
Congrats on 1M subs, Ed. A well deserved testament to the excellent stories you and your contributors tell.
Anyone else amused by the clear light reflection on all the shots of the car painted?
One word for anti laser gun speed traps...
#VantaBlack
My only goal is to piss off automotive purists.. Like slapping a 3l blower on a 1 of 3 car 😉
That’s so awesome, I live in El Paso TX. Didn’t know these guys were working on such a cool project.
When you play too much need for speed heat
More like The Crew. Since that was the first game that had such conversions like this car.
P33b4Ugo5omwh3r3 I miss that game, nobody plays it anymore and the crew 2 is a steaming piece of crap. I wish there was another game like that.
this is the craziest car story i've ever seen. and I love it.
I saw this car sitting out front of an auto shop in mascot fl I whipped an illegal uturn just to look at it.
I might buy it, they want 33k for a dune buggy, thats cheaper than a top end x3
All I know is if I win that 993. I’m now debating on a Baja Porsche or fun street/track car
What did he find in Juarez? I have a difficult time understanding English.
Where the hell do you guys find such interesting people? I haven’t watched a single bad VINWiki video.
Your content is dope can’t stop watching your videos literally watched almost all of them in 3 days
Hey Ed, just a FYI, but the audio is clipping in this video. Just letting you know in case you missed it so that it isn't a chronic problem. Cheers
Thank you
What wrong with Minnesota 😂
MC3 the cars there get rotted out
Shaun Hensley yeah that most of the mid west.
3:59
so relatable for job interviews or trying to be a shrewd negotiator 'don't you know' XD
Herbie the off-road bug except with a sticker price of a supercar and the style of madmax. What’s not to love?
20 grand?!? Let me know when you build another 😉
Big air cooled 911 fan always wanted a flat black one so this caught my eye 👌
Another addition to a great year of content.
Ridge should make a vin wiki wallet
Congratulations on 1 milli Ed!! 🥳🥳.
Greetings from Uruguay 🇺🇾
I like this guys voice
Congratulations to Vinwiki For hitting 1M I still remember when There was 250K. I Can't wait to see Casey With The 1M AMA
I live in El Paso. I would love to find these people.
That's an awesome safari 911 I wish we could hear more about the car like a build breakdown
That car is for sale in Groveland FL I pass by it every day
For real?
20K to buy that beast. Crying shame. Let’s hope some poor boy got it and is absolutely blasting the dunes with it and having an amazing time.
John-Paul Silke true that
Impressive ride, not very practical for the street but looks like it would be a blast off road
Just subscribed, hope you hit that 1 million soon!
1M subs!!! Congrats Ed and VINWiki!!!👍🏻
Oh boy if Magnus walker saw this he would have given the guy praise for the effort of making an off-road Porsche
Crazy build but it looks beautiful. Still my second favorite "stealth" car next to the Airforce's Vapor.
I want to say that paint is called vantablack.
Almost to a million congrats ED and everyone at VinWiki
It's all about being part of the correct secret society, than u get all the right connections and grate amazing deals.
I fucking LOVE Sam!
He’s just so damn relaxed all the time. Hard not to love this dudes stories.
This car is for sale in Florida for 30k ish
Not to often I hear anyone speak of the paint used on the stealth bomber, it is made locally to me and this is the first time other than at the factory I ever heard any mention of it.
Pyro4 life he is lying
Happy 1million subscribers ✌🏽🥳
I'm buying a 2nd car just like the one in my profile pic Nissan Stagea from Japan and it's going to be my winter car and I'm planning on a custom lift for the car beefer suspension, offroad tires, custom roof rack w/ lightbar, custom bush bumper w/ lights and winch and a few other little things. The car comes as a 10/90 split awd but a button on the dash can lock it to 50/50 its gonna be a fun project to start this summer. I'm a welder/fabricator by trade so I wanna show off what I can create and build.
I believe there was an Audi wagon in the early 2000's that had the same paint. Or maybe it reflected radar or something. I remember it being a big deal back in the day.
This guy turtures classic cars, and can't even make a profit off it. Fucking auctioning them off... Come on..
Maybe I just don't appreciate his style... I guess the follow through and general creativity is impressive regardless
Just saw this car for sale a few days ago. Its currently for sale by Smash Customs in FL, think they’re asking like 30k
mathupanic No Russian and Chinese looking to buy it for the paint?
Should have given the remote kid the car
why would you sell the car the paint job alone was worth more than 20k
Vinwiki. Nice channel. Good entertaining content. It would be cool to hear this as a pod cast. So we could listen from spotify.
Happy 1 million!!!! 11:47pm ET 12/30/2019
Cool car and story.
What's with the censor bleeps? We can all handle the words, even 5yr olds use them these days. Just leave the story as is, not bleeps.
Stealth paint and how to win the next cannonball....
Rabbit is right, i love Sam's voice... what a legend :)
ElectronicMarine you legend you
Wasn't that one muscle car that one dude used as a rescue vehicle with nitros painted in stealth paint of sorts?
It’s actually for sale in Orlando now. Pretty cool
About the 'paint debate'.
As a part of my career (in brief) I asses 'micro expressions' in testimonies, now I'm not challenging any knowledge or facts with this statement but I will state that in my expert opinion he believes and did in fact probably experience the series of events he stated, in the context that he stated it!
Their are I imagine many years worth of 'outdated' classified material out there, their are certainly more then one stealth plane and some of them are very old! I personally wouldn't be so quick to question the validity of his story, their could be a few ways that I can hypothesise off that his story could be valid! I believe most of you want it to be untrue so much you are not considering the ways in which it might be true! In my opinion he experienced that event in that way, read Into that as you will, but remember, if you knew everything you would be all knowing, and you wouldn't be commenting here.....
He was amazed when they put Autometer gauges in? He seems easily amazed
Kevin Higgins always !!! My dad said don’t expect any thing then your always surprised
Michael who? He is telling us to check him out but I can't figure out what his last name is.
3:30
@@smoothcat1556 Yeah I know. WTH is he saying? "Airborne"? "Edborn"?
Lightbourn
@@Hardupgarage Awww...thank you! We'll check him out.
Y’all have to get Matt on here with his Porsche and all his crazy cars!!!👍🏼👍🏼
Three people are first.............. honesty 101
I just love listening to Sam tell stories. Top 5 storyteller on here for sure.
I used to live in El Paso, I wish I saw this here
It's now for sale in Florida by smash customs for a good heap of change! Search sema Porsche on Facebook Marketplace!😂
This car is in Mascotte Florida. I’ve driven passed it but always forget to stop and check it out
I like this very much because Porsche people get pissed. Lol.
Nah this one is ok I appreciate the engineering and work he put into it. Take notes Matt Farah wrench everyday
The system of the "stealth" paint is, that it's not smooth.
It is kinda like sandpaper, it throws the light in all different directions.
It can't NOT reflect, so it just does not reflect straight back.
I don't know why people put those light bars on the light of them altho very bright doesn't travel very far, which means they are not very good for driving. If you want proper lights go for cibie Oscars LED spot lights they are very bright and the light travels the furthest of all the lights we tested when biuld my rally car
Sometime in the future people will think he was batshit crazy? Hell, I think that right now! Very likeable guy.
New Cannonball record, required with stealth bomber paint... 🤔
bruh Christmas presents after christmas
What is going to happen to the Selma Ford F-150 concept
This thing's for sale on Facebook
I've seen this car for sale in Florida!
Link?

Less than 1k to a million, 1 day left till 2020. Come on!! 1mil before 2020.
Yesss we did it! Congrats guys!
"And I just look at it and it's in a million pieces,"
Isn't that pretty much all his stories? Don't get me wrong, I love it, but it's funny.
This car is up for sale in mascotte fl at smash customs, crazy how I pass the car all the time and never knew the history
This is like a cooler safari porsche sure its weored to see but that dosent take away from it
It's for sale near me.
Congrats on 1 mil 🎈
Wish I had this much pull in the industry none of my cars would ever be broken down 😭🤣
Apparently it's not ok to say @$$ on Vinwiki. I guess that shows some class.
One of the cooler Vinwiki cars for sure. I wanna drive it!
That's for the ad$! Can't have youtube labelling them dirty!
@@J.Millhouse Gotchya!
Amazing story and 911
Circa 2:37 explains how the paint doesn't reflect... then shows a pic 8 seconds later with powerful reflections 🤷♂️
1 million subs!! Congrats!
