Pretty epic see you and the Alferrari on the big stage! Massive congrats mate. I cannot wait to see and hear you ringing its neck on the road/track soon!
Hey Jeff, maybe you should print out a few pictures of the "before" stage and put it on your windshield when you go to this kind of meetings. Because no words can describe what you went through. Cheers
I've built a couple of my race cars myself, but this is a Master Class level of construction. Unbelievably ambitious and unique. All I can say is wow, just wow.
@@993mike I don't know anything about him, but I would assume he's a fabricator. My father is a welder/fabricator, and he has a machine shop in the garage. Ironically he's also an electrician. He would build cars for people in his shop, and even wire them in many cases. Typically you're building a custom chassis for your engine, trans, and rear anyways. And then you're welding the body of whichever car. It's a lot of measuring up front, and even then you'll run into things but you adapt as you go.
dude is his own car manufacturer. From design to engineering to fabrication. Given enough investment dude can probably form his own restomod company, and do it better than most of em. Fuck if he does I'd apply lol..
So I just watched him build the car, and yeah you're right. I don't know many people who are fabricators, mechanics, and can cut/stitch their own leather. He's a wild one.
The guy who built it is a wizard, he also just jammed an Audi v8 into a boxster. Well done Jeff. And it’s cool you painted it yellow, which was the original colour for a Ferrari
For those of us who have followed Jeff and the Alfarrari . . . Let's just say, there have been many "Ups & Downs" especially the roof. This has been a serious journey, with an incredible end result. It is brilliant. Jeff is a master-artist-engineer-sculpture.
Jeff is an artist and an engineer. I myself would want an ultra leggera version with the DOHC 2.0 and a finely tuned SPICA. There's a lot of specialized parts here, but if Jeff is doing it for himself, kudos. I have a few homebuilt things I built to never sell. But nothing nice like this.
I actually think Enzo would fully appreciate all of Jeffs tremendous work in creating this beauty. My brother had one of these back in the 80's so they'll always have place in my heart... fantastic work Jeff - Good luck with the Truck
Normally I like cars restored to factory spec but this guy is incredible and his range of talents from upholstery to paintwork is simply amazing. Truly talented guy and a beautiful homage to Alfa Romeo
Jeff and Mrs Jeff has a great channel. I have religiously followed this build since day 1. His skills are crazy and he often had to re-do stuff because if it’s worth doing twice.❤ 🇦🇺
Jeff is the best automotive TH-camr you’ve never heard of. I’ve been following him from the early days. He’s a (humble) master craftsman who can do it all.
Never heard of Jeff before or his YT channel but this is why I love your videos Larry, always featuring such unique people and builds. Jeff sounds like a great guy, super humble and proud as he should be, this is an incredible build and the fact he did everything himself is a huge achievement.
Same, I'm Aussie and ashamedly never heard of his channel. Have read about his build on FB, but no one mentioned a YT channel. Love his passion, and you just know he's a brain's trust on any task he endeavours upon
I watched this build from day one, Jeff is an absolute maniac. Such a great build and so much attention to detail went into this. It may not be perfect but it's perfectly awesome. This and BOM's project Binky have been staples for me for ages now.
A true labor of love!!!!! I LOVE that Era of Alfalfas I was almost sure I would never see a beautiful car like yours. When they were made I was 1 year old...Drive it safe! Drive it happy and I hope when ever you are behind the wheel. You know you are a lucky hard working manyou are. And what some dedication can do
13:20 - BUILT NOT BOUGHT. can't wait to hear it run, iirc the 3.6 in the Modena and the 4.5 in the Italia were the last of the NA Flatplane V8's. to Ferrari's credit though the current generation turbocharged V8's don't sound too bad. they're not terrible and that's the best compliment i can give.
Been following Jeff since he started his 911 project. He forgot to mention that he also did a "quick" Beetle restore on his channel too! The man has many talents and is definitely an inspiration.
This guy possess a level of motivation and accomplishment that is purely alien to me... I could only dream of creating something so unique and completely awesome. He should be absolutely proud of his result. It is a beautifully built machine that showcases the passion involved in it's creation. WOW.
Wow, that is the coolest, most beautiful swap I’ve ever seen, I mean no question no.1, talk about stuffing a v8 engine in a small chassis. This is so clean and sexy, it makes a perfect 454 Nova look like a rusted half-ton truck. 👍👍👊🏻
Jeff has done 4 cars in total. He left out the VW beetle. He also dips in and out of his Porsche Boxster race car (with an Audi engine swap). It’s an on going project.
6:57 "Let's talk about the body itself. So did you change the body at all?", then camera cuts to those incredible houndstooth pants! "I spent a lot of time as you can see". Why yes, yes I _can_ see that. But seriously, this car is way beyond brilliant and I'd love to see a feature on the build from start to finish. Insane levels of craftsmanship on every millimeter. I can't believe it ONLY took him 4 years.
So cool you get to see our Aussie gems Larry.. so sad I couldn’t get to Sydney to meet you , hopefully you will be back!, then I could bore you with my quirky car collection 😅😂
I’ve loved following this build, and what a legend, the conversation you’re having with him, is exactly what I look for at car show. He’s done so much, and can tell you so much about the car it’s not possible to, you have to ask so he can answer. He’s done so much he wouldn’t know where to start. Such passion, such unbelievable blood sweat and tears. Nothing but respect for the man, one of the TH-cam legends up there with turbo yoda and the likes
2:11 its like that meme "The Italian doesn't want you to know this but you can get F360 engines for free (ok not free). I have 12 of them myself!" Man I need to check out this car wrecker just for eye candy.

well done Jeff, what a weapon . except enzo would have wanted the motor in the boot 😅
Not every part Jeff…. The diff was sent out. 😉
The fact that you are reviewing a homebuiltbyjeff car is great..... Been following him for years and years
This is an incredible build

Anything worth doing is worth doing twice!
And "that" timing belt scare!
Jeff's builds are always incredible. 👌 Can't wait to see what he does with his car transporter build!
Jeff deserves more recognition and credit. I started watching him on the 240z project and from there I haven't missed a episode of his builds.
I have been watching this build for a while. I am so glad you had a chance to interview him and see it, Larry.
The greatest gift that Jeff gives us is his willingness to give something a go. It gives me a lot of confidence to do the same.
Homebuilt is such a great channel, he's very good at video detailing his work!
Took me a bit to realise I wasnt watching one of Geoff's vids., ooking forward to his Truck build.
I’ve been following this build from day one. Jeff’s fabrication skills in every area are amazing.
Nice!!! Been following this project for a while, great to see Larry covering this car, and talking to Jeff...
One man army. Love his channel. He has so much love for his Alfa build.
Congratulations Jeff. So happy Larry got to feature it.

Ferrai is red because of Alfa, Enzo admire Alfa, he also drove for Alfa team.
Jeff did an amazing job, it's been 4 years of videos, on all parts, really great and clean work.
Those wheels on that car are amazing! Bella!
Normally I like cars restored to factory spec but this guy is incredible and his range of talents from upholstery to paintwork is simply amazing.
Truly talented guy and a beautiful homage to Alfa Romeo
So impressive. He did amazing work. Looks beautiful

A Ferrari modified Alpha Romeo is a nice nod to the history of the two manufacturers.

wish we could hear that beauty runnin...
Absolutely beautiful. The engine looks like it was made to be there. Love how old Alfa's sit.

You'll love all his builds on homebuilt by jeff. Enjoy, mate.
Check out his channel I found it a few years ago when he was doing a his 911.
Same, I'm Aussie and ashamedly never heard of his channel. Have read about his build on FB, but no one mentioned a YT channel. Love his passion, and you just know he's a brain's trust on any task he endeavours upon
He has been making videos for a while now and it is really cool to see his skills grow over that time. He is great
One of my favorite videos so far, so many small details

There's not a single body/engine I'd rather have than this one. Purely amazing.
I've only seen a couple of Insta posts on this build before, but love the idea of it. The fact he did it all himself is actually amazing.
Your car is a doll.Great work with good taste.I had the Lancia Fulvia coupe once...........
We need to follow the progress of this car
Jeff is a living legend 😎 just remember this car is all hand built by himself in a shed, not many car restorers do that.
J avais adoré le coupe alfa.1750.
Son esthétique. La c est un coup de MAITRE. ( congratulations.)
.
Mad props to this guy. Hella humble and talented
Amazing guys, amazing result. Period.
Larry Chen, your way of story telling and story sharing is such a unique and endearing gift to this world. Thank you Mr Chen

Such a cool build
Good bloke this guy, can tell he loves his car
Its absolutely beautiful.
Followed Jeffs journey for the past 4 years. I don't know how he does it! Would be easier to ask "What didn't you do?" lol
Great interview, Larry. I've watched many of Jeff's videos about this car, and you've captured spirit and the nature of the build perfectly.
Such a cool car, deserves any success he gets. All done by him is a huge flex on most people
Dude is a hero! I'm the same way. I wanna do everything on my car. And if I can't buy it, I make it.
So good, and it is so much further already. Best build on TH-cam.
His video is great, an incredible amount of work and craftsmanship
Wow 😮 he did everything! What a guy! The car is Awesome 😎
Glad to see Jeff get some attention. He has tons of detailed content on his builds. I'm a fan. Say hello to Mrs. Jeff!
The most lustworthy car on the planet right now! Jeff is a cool guy.
This Guy is a Complete and total badass.
The ingenuity and determination of this man is truly mind blowing and admirable!
Big props for the screaming yellow valve covers.
This man is So humble , I watched the Gruelling Build on TH-cam and it was amazing. I’m so happy for him that’s it’s on road Finally.
Absolutely incredible 1 man complete build.
LOVE this car and GTVs...timeless
I watched this guy build this car, he did a ridiculous job. It's an amazing car.
This is the crazy stuff Ive build in forza, it’s wild someone has created something this awesome!!! I love it
Been following Jeff since he started his 911 project. He forgot to mention that he also did a "quick" Beetle restore on his channel too! The man has many talents and is definitely an inspiration.
OUTSTANDING BUILD MAN... SHE'S GORGEOUS !!!
I admire guys like this.
It's beautiful, man.
Who’d have imagined when Jeff started working on his Datsun that one day Larry Chen would be filming his work. Fantastic story! 👏👏👏
Super awesome build. I'm a little sad you didn't get a ride in this.
This guy possess a level of motivation and accomplishment that is purely alien to me... I could only dream of creating something so unique and completely awesome. He should be absolutely proud of his result. It is a beautifully built machine that showcases the passion involved in it's creation. WOW.
Worlds colliding! G'day Jeff!
Wow, that is the coolest, most beautiful swap I’ve ever seen, I mean no question no.1, talk about stuffing a v8 engine in a small chassis. This is so clean and sexy, it makes a perfect 454 Nova look like a rusted half-ton truck. 👍👍👊🏻
Jeff is the GOAT. Undisputed. Next build is looking too be a really great one too.
This was the project that started me watching Jeff.
Jeff, i take my hat to you. I followed the build in your channel and im still amazed.
golden hands..chapeau..!!

This Alfa is the coolest of cool as restomods go, the Alfa body style is beautiful and the engine looks right at home. Ultra Cool 😎
So glad Jeff is getting the recognition he deserves ❤
Larry always asking thoughtful questions. Interesting discussion on the 360 V8 being the first, "modern" Ferrari engine.
What an amazing build. The attention to detail is nuts 🤯
