Mikes quality of work is on another level. He wants to make everything perfect, and Damon is like "I'de just buy you black head lights". Mikes attention to detail if far better than whatever you can buy.
YES we’ll said I couldn’t agree more he is an awesome fabricator and his attention to detail is spot on he’s very talented and he’s also an awesome driver so when he builds something he does it the right way since on most of his builds it’s his ass on the line as far as it being safe because if it wasn’t he wouldn’t himself climb in any of his cars and if he does something he’s going to do it right!!
Thays why wa uùy they tried this with i found just to be shit from his driving to his imability to work on anythinf but vipers, he couldnt even keep his team togeth⁷r juat totally lacked manGment skill. Mike thought not onlt has the fabrication skills, driving pedigree, a good name in the community but above all else he knows how to run a business and a successful one and understands what it takes and what comes along with it while the last dude couldn't even get a juicecar ready for race weekend.
What do you mean Damon your not a euro type car guy. All you have is European cars in the fleet. Two american and one English all other cars are Italian or German
Picking them up? Mikes doing him the favor lol they use his shop his tools his parts sit there annoying him act like children around him if anything he’s helping them
DDE Stories is a great channel. You feel like you are there with them all. The main channel obviously needs the major editing, excitement and cliffhanging. But stories makes you feel like you are just hanging out at the shop on a Saturday Morning. Love it. Keep it up!
So glad Mark and Mike makes dde so much fun to watch especially when you guys are doing silly things like trying to get your bottle water in the trash.🤣🤣🤣
if y'all haven't heard of it, you should look into vapor honing/blasting some of the cast parts under the hood to make them shiny and match the covers after they've been powder coated. It's a really cool and simple process that has amazing results.
37 minutes of behind the scenes with our favorite exotic car youtubers! Great way to start the week! Keep up the amazing work everyone can't wait to see the new projects, and the current ones completed! Love the content both main and this channel!
Okay. I guess I'm not a normal subscriber to channel. But personally I like the stories channel because you guys are real in that. You're not trying to make a TV show. You guys show your family's, your lives it means a lot. Even though they hate it. Lol
so cool to now see the behind the camera projects you guys have now, since mike joined the videos have been amazing to watch and i find myself watching the video as soon as the notification drops, good stuff guys!!!
Been watching your main channel for over a yr now, and didn't even know about this channel. Its def a lot more mellow than DDE main channel and I love it. Hidden gem right here boys and girls.
a little favor damon, japanese tune the minivan,wide body it, bagged it, 3 piece wheels on it, and put a turbo on it , then have a insane wrap with it, it will just gonna cost you a change oil for the lambo but it would be so cool to do it
Damon you definitely deliver on making the episodes entertaining the whole way thru and I was literally saying to my fam that this feels like a tv show getting those 20-30 min vids are great
Mike is an awesome addition to the channel. 🔥 I also like that Marc is in a lot of the vids , he's a great fit . Ty also to Marc for all of his.hard work. Thumbs up brother 👍
Honestly i think the euro cars normally aren't your scene but... a fully built bmw procar would be a sick addition to watch you guys hoon around a track with.
you definitely should buy mikes car . money will support him as well and to own a car like that is amazing . i know they are not exactly exotics but those cars will suit the channel perfectly
Damon your working the grind. It feels like you haven’t been home in a month. Your family must be missing you. Hopefully you can head home soon to see them. Thanks for all your work.
I have that same set of pick tools Mike. Pick tools do so many different things. But I bought them when I was doing alarm/ remote start installs back in the day.
Mike speaking my language now. I draw in CAD daily and make CNC programs for our HighDef Hypertherm XPR300 plasma. Our table is 7foot wide by 14feet long.We make anything From small 18ga stainless/16ga Aluminum to 1.5inch A36 Carbon Steel parts. Whatever job we are fabricating the shop depends on me to make custom parts. Like today I've laid out and programmed 4 different deflector shields out of 1/8 Stainless. Funny to see Mike teaching Damon what SolidWorks is and how to burn out on the Plasma table. That table looks like small part type with tiny plasma in comparison what our steel fab shop uses. Perfect for small car shop with custom Fabrication. Im Just happy to see this . Another Great Video from DDE and Mike Essa
Damon, Mark, Mike, Eric, Skinny are like you and Dave's brothers from another mother lol😂the content is priceless I'll always be here for the shenanigans 😜...sidebar I want a limited edition 11's SVJ hat like yesterday...so many people watch and know you guys, when I wear my DDE hats people ask what do you know about DDE, then say DDE DDE DDE 👊🏾👊🏾🔥🔥🔥
Mike is a Great guy! He’s very knowledgeable and a great fit for your new shop. So much better than the childish clowns you had before! Love watching and learning a lot as well!
DailydrivenExotics Stories Great Video I think Mike's Plasma Table is pretty cool and I can't wait to see the Caravan GT build and I think it's awesome that Damon made that trick shot
Yo please put BRONZE vinyl outlines on the vents for the ENGINE COVER OMG….. reminiscent of the SESTO ELEMENTO!!!!!! I’ve always dreamed of a Twin Turbo Sesto Elemento if u look at it, it’s exactly what Damon needs as a Halo Car, the end all be all
You guys are doing great love the builds going on and I think building the van to make something no one has seen before would be amazing keep up the great work guys
By the way we love you too Damon and all the DDE family! Mike is such an awesome addition to the team! Always enjoy shenanigans with Mark! Thanks guy’s
make a laid back channel that follows the builds more in depth. kinda like b is for build. i guarantee you it’ll be just as popular as the stories channel. i saw someone in the comments say to call it dde lab and i liked that.
The lambo collection is getting pretty nasty. Technically 3 race cars or race car inspired lambos in one garage. The supercharged huracan with the st kit is probably my favorite in the stable out of all the cars now. It just looks absolutely mean af. And with the new tube you’re getting, it’s gotta be nasty fast with that instant torque. VF always comes with the heat. I’ve drooled over their sto bud since you first test drove it.
GTC01RR on the Ferrari would be cleaaaannnn. The RS905RRs powder coated would be good too though if you kept those on Or Volk G25(or some variation of them)
Yo please do an im depth tutorial for the NOS kit for the CGT.!!!😂 I have the same engine, remember u responded to me when I said I would smoke the real CGT in it😂😂😂 goat comment
As somebody that makes headlights for a living for Ford I suggest heating up to about 100 degrees to soften the glue that actually not silicone its glue we use food warmers you seeing a restaurant for our tear downs
It's all fun and games but my programmers/designers aren't allowed to say Solidworks on the job cause I consider it a curse word; we use Creo (Pro/Engineer) which is the big, expensive, much more powerful brother to solidworks. But it's super fun stuff if you're into that sort of thing!!
You were definitely right Damon. You could’ve made that piece with a drill and grinder in 10 minutes and it would’ve worked just fine and looked just as good.
DASH IDEA put a small camera on the right rear of the car and a screen into where the airbag would have been so you can see the furthest corner of the car outside to help gauge distance from walls when sideways !! Will look awesome !
As a guy that spends 40-50 hrs a week drawing 3D parts/assemblies. Happy to see people appreciate the skill it takes to create this stuff.
Same here brotha!
You have an Instagram or social on the work you do? I'd like to add a follow and see the art you produce.
I did the same for a while and it definitely take a ton of attention to detail. Mike definitely is a boss.
I got you on that one man shits a gratifying pain in the ass some days
Mikes quality of work is on another level. He wants to make everything perfect, and Damon is like "I'de just buy you black head lights". Mikes attention to detail if far better than whatever you can buy.

The whining my god, your name makes sense 🤣🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Thays why wa uùy they tried this with i found just to be shit from his driving to his imability to work on anythinf but vipers, he couldnt even keep his team togeth⁷r juat totally lacked manGment skill.

Quality car guy for sure
@@masturone8257 what in the failed spelling class are you trying to say?
Amount of quality that Mike brings in is unreal
Might be worth it to spin out a dedicated channel for him
Mike Esea dde fab. Coming in hot 🔥. Please
Well said one of the best colabs
Spoke my mind most boring ass vlog I have ever seen
@@pigmanvideosaudits6808 Call it DDE Lab or Doc Mike
What do you mean Damon your not a euro type car guy. All you have is European cars in the fleet. Two american and one English all other cars are Italian or German
Damon and Dave. Big hats off to you guys for picking up Mike and his team. One of the best moves you've ever made.
Picking them up? Mikes doing him the favor lol they use his shop his tools his parts sit there annoying him act like children around him if anything he’s helping them
DDE Stories is a great channel. You feel like you are there with them all. The main channel obviously needs the major editing, excitement and cliffhanging. But stories makes you feel like you are just hanging out at the shop on a Saturday Morning. Love it. Keep it up!
So glad Mark and Mike makes dde so much fun to watch especially when you guys are doing silly things like trying to get your bottle water in the trash.🤣🤣🤣
You really enjoy watching them try an land a water bottle in the trash you must be a little kid
if y'all haven't heard of it, you should look into vapor honing/blasting some of the cast parts under the hood to make them shiny and match the covers after they've been powder coated. It's a really cool and simple process that has amazing results.

I could literally watch mike if it was just him for 45 minutes.
He’s such a Phenomonal addition to the team.
Okay. I guess I'm not a normal subscriber to channel. But personally I like the stories channel because you guys are real in that. You're not trying to make a TV show. You guys show your family's, your lives it means a lot. Even though they hate it. Lol
so cool to now see the behind the camera projects you guys have now, since mike joined the videos have been amazing to watch and i find myself watching the video as soon as the notification drops, good stuff guys!!!
Mikes the man. Y’all better be paying the guy a bag for his dedication and hard work.
I wish Mike's drift cars were more on brand, or we'd just inherit them. Anyways, here's the plans for beefing up our minivan. 🤣
Been watching your main channel for over a yr now, and didn't even know about this channel. Its def a lot more mellow than DDE main channel and I love it. Hidden gem right here boys and girls.
Mike fits in so well and great he can focus on building cars and not get side tracked with other thingz
Hats off to whoever did the body work and paint on that ferrari. That black is beautiful.
a little favor damon, japanese tune the minivan,wide body it, bagged it, 3 piece wheels on it, and put a turbo on it , then have a insane wrap with it, it will just gonna cost you a change oil for the lambo but it would be so cool to do it
Damon you definitely deliver on making the episodes entertaining the whole way thru and I was literally saying to my fam that this feels like a tv show getting those 20-30 min vids are great
Shoutout DDE FAM ❤️🙌 Mike , Tim and Eric too . hoping to have a DDE x ESSA collab merch 🥺
Mike is an awesome addition to the channel. 🔥 I also like that Marc is in a lot of the vids , he's a great fit . Ty also to Marc for all of his.hard work. Thumbs up brother 👍
The 550 build has just come out so beautiful. Mike is truly a master mechanic and builder. This channel is constantly upping the game, just loving it.
Honestly i think the euro cars normally aren't your scene but... a fully built bmw procar would be a sick addition to watch you guys hoon around a track with.
Love Mikes addition to the DDE Fam. This build regardless of everything is my favourite build. Nothing but love fellas. 👍🍺🇦🇺
That black paint loos SO CLEAN! LOVE IT!
We need more og night driving!!!!! And spirited drives with super cars like the Beverly Hills days
I don't think you could find a better guy than Mike to join the DDE team!
Eric is priceless for this channel for other reasons than Mike has become Priceless for DDE.
As a previous construction drawing designer and 3D modeler I appreciate this content.
This in depth car building videos are absolutely awesome!!!!!
I had a rental dodge minivan for about a week, and that thing was so much fun. They are shockingly quick for what they are.
you definitely should buy mikes car . money will support him as well and to own a car like that is amazing . i know they are not exactly exotics but those cars will suit the channel perfectly
Damon your working the grind. It feels like you haven’t been home in a month. Your family must be missing you. Hopefully you can head home soon to see them. Thanks for all your work.
I have that same set of pick tools Mike. Pick tools do so many different things. But I bought them when I was doing alarm/ remote start installs back in the day.
mike is such a gift to you guys. great team you have going over there. don't burn him out! lol
Hell yeah! We were invested! Thank you boys! 37:09
Damon that black excursion at mikes shop would make a great tow rig for you guys
Friggin love the CGT episodes. You guys hooning the minivan is hilarious!
The work quality that Mike has done is amazing
Today's a good day when the DDE notification goes off 👌🏻👌🏻
Man this car looks so good. I can’t say it enough so glad you all have Mike on board now.

Glad I watched until the very end. Lets go!
this channel is doing super well. i like it more than the main channel.
Eric is so goofy 😂😂😂😂
The big color reveal!....wait for it...Black...who would have guessed that spectacular color, wow.
Dude, recording in HDR brings the channel to a whole new level.
DailydrivenExotics Stories Great Video I think Mike's Plasma Table is pretty cool and I can't wait to see the Caravan GT build and I think it's awesome that Damon made that trick shot
Mike was such a great addition to the DDE Team!!
lol Damon I can tell you're fascinated with the program Mike's using for fab work
I love this channel so much, you get a whole new respective on the DDE life.
Nice shot at the end with the bottle
I'm glad to finally hear that you are going to upgrade to VAN.
And the Ferrari looks stunning...good luck DDE
28:41 This reminds me about roof scoops!
First! DDE fam from the Philippines! LETS GO DDE!🇵🇭💥🔥
Mike is a CAD wizard! I love SOLIDWORKS 😍
Damon might be onto something with those metal rulers 📏
Good morning DDE fam and DDE, it's always a good day when you guys post a video!
Yo please put BRONZE vinyl outlines on the vents for the ENGINE COVER OMG….. reminiscent of the SESTO ELEMENTO!!!!!! I’ve always dreamed of a Twin Turbo Sesto Elemento if u look at it, it’s exactly what Damon needs as a Halo Car, the end all be all
One of the BMWs would be a great practice car. You don’t have to film it, but I would be down to see it sliding around at some track days
Safe to say this Mark LOVEs his job ❤
Out of all the great things on this video. I think I enjoyed the last few minutes the best 🤣
Love y’all so much thank you for making my day better everyday DDE DDE DDE
Was just about to say a set of Ray's Engineering Te37s would look crazy
about time you guys got your own tyre fitting machine in the shop
GOOD MORNING DDE FAM! 🦄🖤🦄🖤🦄
Good morning
Good morning
Thanks again🐆🐆🐆
Good morning 🙏
Good morning
Iverson shirt is fire - Mark stepping up that swag way up 😅 Good Job
TEs On The Van Would Go Hard That Was A Good Idea Mark
Daily uploads >>>
I like both channels but enjoy the behind the scenes the most
Is it just me or are you and Dave starting to look more alike every day 😂
Wrap the van green and make it look like your CGT lol
Love these long vlogs
You guys are doing great love the builds going on and I think building the van to make something no one has seen before would be amazing keep up the great work guys
Honestly, i wish the Caravant GT would get the exotic treatment, carbon everything, kickass wheels and bucket seats :D
By the way we love you too Damon and all the DDE family! Mike is such an awesome addition to the team! Always enjoy shenanigans with Mark!
Thanks guy’s
make a laid back channel that follows the builds more in depth. kinda like b is for build. i guarantee you it’ll be just as popular as the stories channel. i saw someone in the comments say to call it dde lab and i liked that.
Eric is so funny 😂
Love the watch Dave
Love to add one day in my collection

Or Volk G25(or some variation of them)
This channel is absolutely amazing
Love me some cad. Solid works...works haha remember when it was MVparts autocad
Yo please do an im depth tutorial for the NOS kit for the CGT.!!!😂 I have the same engine, remember u responded to me when I said I would smoke the real CGT in it😂😂😂 goat comment
Mike was made for this stories channel. For more of the nuts and bolts of the projects
those enkei wheels is THE BEST option :D VERYYYY NIIICE
DDE love you guys
That excursion in the background is clean
As somebody that makes headlights for a living for Ford I suggest heating up to about 100 degrees to soften the glue that actually not silicone its glue we use food warmers you seeing a restaurant for our tear downs

The DDE crew you guys are awesome!👏👍.
You were definitely right Damon. You could’ve made that piece with a drill and grinder in 10 minutes and it would’ve worked just fine and looked just as good.
Yes!!!!! show us what a caravan one-off should look like!!!! This will be better than the rumored R/T Caravan!!!
DASH IDEA
put a small camera on the right rear of the car and a screen into where the airbag would have been so you can see the furthest corner of the car outside to help gauge distance from walls when sideways !!
Will look awesome !
