@@matarmstrongmk2Once again you bought another car with the steering wheel on the wrong side. I learned to drive a manual transmission many years ago, I’m far too old to learn how to drive on the wrong side of the road.
Same I'm at the part where he says "NOT HOW I THOUGHT ID BUY A merciélago BUT I BROUGHT ONE" and I'm bouta watch this whole thing just like how u did so WE IN HERE GANG SHIT NO LAME SHIT FEEL ME
5 hours of pure entertainment, never have I ever watched anything over 1 hour, but your builds,, from start to finish, are well worth the watch, the dedication and attention to details.. KEEP making these build videos, and well done to everyone involved.
Ok.....I am 62 years old and found myself with a lump in my throat and tears streaming down my face when that V12 finally fired up at the 3 hour mark of this video!!!!! Mat? What an INCREDIBLE VIDEO! You, your father, Hannah & the rest of the crew are truly blessed individuals! I'm about to watch the rest of the video after a quick run up to the local market for my wife and hopefully I will get a 'grip' on my emotions here! Huge HUGE SALUTES again from balmy Las Vegas, Nevada USA! PS: The video also made me realize just how much I miss my father.......Rest In Peace Dad.
Over double the playtime of „Die Hard“ , over double the amount of emotions as in „Titanic“… this needs an award. Actually the best TH-cam „movie“, I’ve seen so far! Best regards from Germany ❤
I watched this over the course of two days. Hands down Mat, this is one of the best car videos I have ever seen. You captured everything that is exotic car ownership. The emotions, the tensions, the joy. Giving your dad the Rolex brought tears to my eyes because I watch these videos through a nostalgic lens of working on cars with my dad when I was a kid. Thank you for such an amazingly shot, scripted, and edited video.
Had to be crazy to get Hammond to congratulate you. It's moments when the people you watch on TV act genuine and kind in person that truly make those experiences worthwhile. Awesome build!
My wife asked “are you seriously going to sit there and watch this for 5 hours?” I said it’s not 5 hours it’s 5 hours 30 minutes 😂and by the way I did watch it in one sitting
Im sure you do a lot and I mean a lot of things you dont want to do because of her so if thats something yiu want to do i say do it cause women like to make you feel like shit for doing something that makes tou happy so hats off to you mate
I can relate to that 😂 on other videos if they’re 2 or more hours long, I’m like, ‘oh, I can’t be bothered to sit here that long’ but with Mat’s if it’s less than an hour I’m disappointed. I think he was just born to do this… takes a different kind of person to just keep smiling when he’s hit with problem after problem, great inspiration for us all..Best channel on TH-cam for me..100%
Never thought I’d be sitting through a 5 and a half hour TH-cam video, but this was a journey! Love the relationship between you and your dad. He’s always so positive and the matching watches was a really nice touch.
I'm in my late 50's. I envy the relationship the father and son have in working together for their passion. I wish I did that with my dad and had the same joy working together with my son. Cudo!!!!
You gottta love Matt's energy. Even when things go wrong, he's all smiles. I'm not a car guy. I've never even done my own oil change and I'm not even sure why I clicked on this video. However, I really enjoyed every second. What an amazing team and an amazing dad. This was also shot and edited so well. I felt like I was watching an actual show on television. Great work.
Matt, me and my girlfriend watched the ENTIRE video, and were BOTH overwhelmed with tears of joy seeing how happy your dad was and the experience you guys shared with each other. Priceless man. Cheers and great job. Congrats to you and the whole team! Salute!
The dedication to watch a 5 hour video from where the car started to the end product is very rewarding for us viewers just as much as it is for Matt himself taking a year of his life to rebuild his dream car. Truly amazing to see his journey through thick and thin.
Watched straight through, in one sitting. Loved that you did this with your dad, and the father/son relationship, and obvious bond, really made this special. Fantastic stuff, and probably only possible due to your ability to laugh at your own misfortunes and always see the glass half-full! My hat is off to you, cheers!
this had truly an old school top gear challenge to it and i have loved watching every moment, the fact matt has done this project with his father makes it extra special and something i am sure matt will treasure in years to come.
French here 🇨🇵 ive seen all entire 5h videi what a awesome family work, father son moment that go over the top Its a courageous choice car. Clearly helped with fair amount of money that none could assume, it's not a cheap restoration but at final a dream car is better if you work on it that just have it nzw with a simple turn key and go. You definitely appreciate it more now. I just regret the 4wd loss as this car is unbeatable on some Surfaces where its the only one that vould be floored, even some audi quattro look envious Have fun ! Thank you for th past 5 hours seeing this ! ❤️
he does to them 30 mins for ten weeks on his main chanel it’s only after he’s finished it all he puts them all together into a 5 hour one on this channel
absolutely obsessed with your channel. It’s so fun to watch and you always have the best attitude no matter what. It’s a great way to live. Makes anyone wanna be around it.
Honestly after watching this build and the Aston Martin build, Im now convinced I'm only dropping in to watch your channel literally 40% you and 60% your father lol but 100% to see your guys awesome relationship. I am 30 years old and I'm not afraid to say I absolutely adore your relationship you guys share, i actually admire it seriously. Its definitely a type of relationship I strive for to have and share with my son honestly. Thanks for sharing it with us it's a genuinely amazing thing to be able to see and enjoy!
Honestly i never have really cared that much that i never had a father in my life until i watched this video. Thanks Matt! Lol, for real though those are some awesome memories you made here, im sure youll cherish them for the rest of your life!
Hi Mat i would like to inform you that i am now one of your ardent followers, you are now part of the furniture in my sitting room. Your skills and those of your team are outstanding, you capture your audience with humour, dedication and information. Your ability to engage and connect with us is nothing short of incredible, undoutbly due to your genuineness, humility and passion for what you do. You and your team have broken the mystic surrounding super cars, providing us with superb information and knowledge of their workings, and i guess support for those who want to venture into a similar pastime. You seem to be a well grounded person, who is inspiring and courageous, you demonstrate very well the human spirit at its very best. I personally love the way you take something which is broken and fix it, in my mind each car that you have fixed is given a soul, and then become unique. Keep them coming you have my support. Stu
Everyone should have a Dad like yours, living the experience of a lifetime you and millions of your followers can live with you. Thanks for all the videos and being able to live life through you, your dad and friends !
@@matarmstrongmk2I must say that your Lamborghini Murcielago is one beautiful car. But why would anyone want a car painted the same color as as the phlegm that I coughed up, the last time I had bronchitis? YUCK!
Every time I watch one of your episodes I’m always so impressed with your happiness, it’s natural and not an act and that means your mama and pops made one heckuva little baby boy. And look how that little happy baby boy turned out all these years later, a real genuine good man with obviously light/LOVE in your heart. People can’t hide that or fake it when it’s real and that is what makes watching your episodes most excellent. I have 4 of my grown kids, 2 handsome grown guys and 2 beautiful grown women that I am very proud of, so as a father myself I can’t help but feel very happy/proud of you as you’re their ages. And also, for me I so much love how you have your pops with you and you actually love having him there and you’re like best friends. That’s extremely special. I fully fully understand this as my boys are same with me but none of my other friends sons or kids at all hang out with them since moving away and my wife and I always get comments how lucky we are that our kids actually hang out with mom and dad often. Obviously your pops (and mama) is a very good man and is fantastic and very loving as your pops. I love it! Your channel is truly a pleasure to watch and young man, you’re helping an old dog to learn new tricks🤩🙌😂. Your channel and these episodes are excellent positive good clean healthy and fun to watch, not to mention very inspiring for young kids/adults. I’m getting up there in age and I’m becoming an old softy lately, I see things so differently today than even 5 years ago and so I try not to allow much deserved comments/compliments that I’m thinking to pass me by without actually saying something to whomever, you. Looking forward to a fantastic 2024 🤩🙌🙌😁
I don't often comment and I know this probably wont be seen. But I just wanted to thank you for taking me, and all of us, on this journey. When the engine finally started at the 3hour mark... that was magical. This video is one of the best content I've seen on TH-cam. Truly beautiful to watch
Wow this is so heartwarming, especially working with your dad. The fact that everything is approached with laughter even if things are not working out, is superpower.
Hi Mat, as im disabled i spend a lot of time watching mechanic videos on youtube and ive just found your youtube site and ive got to say there bang on for the viewers mate i love watching your builds. Keep up the great work mate. Thanks for keeping me entertained.
Absolutely epic video mate, can't believe I actually watched the entire thing. What a journey, you're a legend, sheer determination, passion and perseverance, well done Matt 👍🏽😊
I'm also get excited watching Mat and his father rebuilding the newly bought used lambo. There's always the right place to drive crazy speed, drive safe.
I love that your dad helps and you do these projects together. My dad passed away 2006, he was super smart. Would loved to have done projects together with him. Seeing you and your dad puts a smile on my face. Great channel. 😊
Mat, you are my new favorite channel!! In a time of all kinds of depressing things going on in the world, you are able to take me away from all of that and put a smile on my face. Keep up the great work!
Great video. The Lamborghini looks beautiful. Great job and you get to do it all with your father. Everyone should wish to have a Father as good and supporting as yours is. No matter what goes wrong he is always making jokes and laughing to lighten the mood. It’s nice to see you 2 working and spending so much time with eachother
how do you talk about something I'm not really interested in but still make it so entertaining for me to sit and watch for FIVE HOURS?! you're a fantastic story teller and very pleasant to listen to.
I found this channel and video by sheer accident and tbh i'm in no way complaining, It's been both really good to have playing on in the background as well as turn away from my main pc to watch while i work on Unity/Blender work. I'd love to see more of these Omnibus's of your build videos they are absolutely fantastic
it'd be nice to get a final look video on the Merci, with the total build cost (and if you got any discount from the place you bought it from consodering their botch job of fixing it) and know what your future plans are for it..
I’m been following this project from the start. It turned out amazing! And Mat, you made it and you earned everything for your hard work! Looking forward to next project! Peace ☮️
Incredible build Mat,what a transformation u Chris Slix and Tony made to the merci, brought it back to life! Ure very inspiring ,keep grinding brother!👌👍🦾🦾🏈🇿🇦
You and your dad are so inspirational and full of energy. Your smile never goes away no matter how tough it goes. I have no idea how you do all that math !
Matt great stuff! You are one of those people that even when things are going badly you can see a way forward. Your positivity is an example to us all. Also I am not sure if anyone has said this before but you are very intelligent and your problem solving skills are excellent. I am a flying doctor for a manufacturer and I am really impressed.
I never watched a clip on TH-cam for more than 30mins. I enjoyed every minute of this. The part from your early days to who you are now has an emotional touch. Congratulations mate, keep the vibe going!
Thanks Mat, for an amazing documentary, i watched the original instalments but seeing it all together really brings home the fantastic achievement of you and your team, especially Tony. What a star! Five hours well spent. Cheers!
HI mat, very inspiring what you accomplished with the lambo, these are moments to remember forever, it seems like a privilege to be able to work with your father friends and your girlfriend. I just finished my 1st project a damage bmw 1 series, which i built for my girlfriend
1:44:49 just a little heads up, if that’s sealant, you have to go around the full perimeter.. and not leave gaps like that! that’s going to eventually leak
Absolutely incredible job, Mat. Once i finished the whole video I realised it is that long. To me it felt like 15mins. You are inspiration for mostly of the people watching here. Keep the positive going on ! Thumbs up!
I can honestly tell you marathon watching this video has been a complete pleasure! I have enjoyed watching you and your Father working to build your dream car together! It is something you will always be ever so grateful for doing and carry with you a lifetime of good memories! Well done!
Matt I really enjoyed this one .REBUILDIING AN ABANDONED LAMBORGHINI MURCIELAGO.I was jumping and dancing when your dodgy connections on the clock and center console worked . my wife thought i was crazy .awesome stuff best 5 hours ever. ps..I AM FROM SOUTH AFRICA
i think the gull-wing doors make this lamborghini so distinctive. it shouts " supercar ." Mat has brought me into the fold as these supercars as - really works of art - like a famous statue by a master.
I have no clue why, but I watched this from start to finish. Crazy build. Your video has the early mighty car mods channel vibe. Good luck to you on the next one.
Before watching this, i watched the one about the Porsche GT3 that is about +3hrs. All this is very impressive considering where you are coming from and everything that you have acomplised so far, but to me, the most remarkable thing about all your videos and journeys throuought your re-builds is that your loved ones support you from begining to the end and to have your girl and your Dad supporting, loving and helping you is the outmost remarkable things to see on your videos. You are a very lucky man to have that people around you. Cheers mate!
Hy Mat love your videos i'm 64 yr old disable ex lorry driver you crease me you never appear to get down your always lol how dose Hanna cope and your dad is a star keep up the good videos and work keeps me sane lol ty my friend
Ive watched most if not all of the full build videos I think 🤔. But one thing I've noticed is the amount of time it's just Matt and his dad which is fantastic to see . Great father and son time . Especially for his dad being able to pass on his skills and knowledge and seeing his son grow and Matt getting precious time and building fantastic memories with his dad . Sappy I know but great videos and can't wait for more
This is so good! No movie or TV show has me so interested in every second of it, looking at the bolts, at the connectors, the schematics. Thank you so much. Continue with this. But take care of yourself, there's so many big projects!!!
Fantastic video sir. Really enjoying learning with you. Your attention to detail this project is fantastic! Great work and especially on double checking EVERYTHING.
The flap inside the intake manifold essentially opens and closes to change the effective length of the intake. Different length intakes are more efficient at various RPMs so being able to adjust the intake length allows for more power across a wider RPM range.
Great video Mat - Love to see you are never affraid to strip anything apart to see if it is salvable. You save lot of money on putting in some hard work. Hope this car will give you much joy in the future
The ring footage was mental. All of your flogged your cars proper. Tracking can be scary when so many $$$$ and your body are on the line. Well done lads!
That’s 5 hours in the bath then..

Amen to that I truly love to see him and his dad getting along so well

It's quite astonishing that the Murcielago build is complete. I remember when it was just parts and a body.... well done, Mat.

Pretty much the same with me.
She must have known you were going to do it anyways, otherwise she wouldn't be your wife. The question was rhetorical.

Imagine how proud you are as a father seeing your son managing to rebuilt a whole Lamborghini Murcielago from almost scratch!
Big W to you two!! 💯🔥
Never thought I’d be sitting through a 5 and a half hour TH-cam video, but this was a journey! Love the relationship between you and your dad. He’s always so positive and the matching watches was a really nice touch.

I'm 62 and don't usually watch car build videos... 4.5 hours in and I'm still watching... pausing it when I leave the room! Excellent build! Or Resto!
Your dad is always happy and he always lights up the mood and I like how positive you always are
i can see where he gets his cheerfulness and positivity from, great dad and great son
Hands up if you didn’t skip and are still watching. 1 hour to go! Loving it. ❤🎉
Yes 🎉🎉🎉
Never skip through any of his videos, if you’re a true fan you wouldn’t would you.

Me too
Im still watching😂

Haha same here😂
So lucky you get to work with your dad like this. Treasure these times!

Absolutely cried when she fired up for the first time. Love binge-watching these long form videos, thank you for entertaining and informing us.
FIVE and one half hour miniseries. BUT!!!!!! The way it's done HOLDS MY INTEREST. I am watching it straight through.
absolutely obsessed with your channel. It’s so fun to watch and you always have the best attitude no matter what. It’s a great way to live. Makes anyone wanna be around it.
Popcorn ✔️ foot rest ✔️ drink ✔️ phone charger ✔️ Ready to give 5 hours of my life LETS DO THIS! 😅
it’s awesome how you get to spend so much time with your dad rebuilding these cars. Enjoy it brother! Love this rebuild
Honestly after watching this build and the Aston Martin build, Im now convinced I'm only dropping in to watch your channel literally 40% you and 60% your father lol but 100% to see your guys awesome relationship. I am 30 years old and I'm not afraid to say I absolutely adore your relationship you guys share, i actually admire it seriously. Its definitely a type of relationship I strive for to have and share with my son honestly. Thanks for sharing it with us it's a genuinely amazing thing to be able to see and enjoy!
The most entertaining 5 1/2 hours I’ve ever sat down and watched. You are one of the most entertaining and interesting people on TH-cam.
Best 5hrs spent watching the leg mat and Tony at work just shows how much hard work and skill went into the absolute beautiful murci 👊
Honestly i never have really cared that much that i never had a father in my life until i watched this video. Thanks Matt! Lol, for real though those are some awesome memories you made here, im sure youll cherish them for the rest of your life!
Good to be able to see the whole build from start to finish in one episode. Hope Mat keeps going with this format.

I actually prefer watching these full build videos compared to following each video piece by piece. Why isnt this a Top Gear Episode???
Everyone should have a Dad like yours, living the experience of a lifetime you and millions of your followers can live with you. Thanks for all the videos and being able to live life through you, your dad and friends !
The ending that shows your journey is amazing Mat! I'm very happy to see you never gave up on your dream!
So cool for Richard to stop and speak with so much interest really shows how cool of a guy he is
Absolutely love your videos! Talk about a man that has found his natural element! Great job and best of luck on your future endeavours 👊👊

That is very cool giving your dad his flowers while he is alive, the car is tight, all your cars look tight. Congrats

it'd be nice to get a final look video on the Merci, with the total build cost (and if you got any discount from the place you bought it from consodering their botch job of fixing it) and know what your future plans are for it..
Love it when your dad laughs, he’s awesome! It’s great seeing you work together. 👍👌👊
I’m been following this project from the start. It turned out amazing! And Mat, you made it and you earned everything for your hard work! Looking forward to next project! Peace ☮️
I loved every single minute of this video from the purchase, to the build, to the road trip! Absolutely awesome
Incredible build Mat,what a transformation u Chris Slix and Tony made to the merci, brought it back to life!
Ure very inspiring ,keep grinding brother!👌👍🦾🦾🏈🇿🇦
You and your dad are so inspirational and full of energy. Your smile never goes away no matter how tough it goes. I have no idea how you do all that math !
Matt great stuff! You are one of those people that even when things are going badly you can see a way forward. Your positivity is an example to us all. Also I am not sure if anyone has said this before but you are very intelligent and your problem solving skills are excellent. I am a flying doctor for a manufacturer and I am really impressed.
I never watched a clip on TH-cam for more than 30mins. I enjoyed every minute of this. The part from your early days to who you are now has an emotional touch. Congratulations mate, keep the vibe going!
So true, excellent comment. 😁
Cannot believe the instrument cluster was so bloody expensive. It hardly seems that complicated.
Thanks Mat, for an amazing documentary, i watched the original instalments but seeing it all together really brings home the fantastic achievement of you and your team, especially Tony. What a star!
Five hours well spent. Cheers!
😂I live for this channel ❤
So lucky that you are doing this with your dad!!!
HI mat, very inspiring what you accomplished with the lambo,
these are moments to remember forever,
it seems like a privilege to be able to work with your father friends and your girlfriend.
I just finished my 1st project a damage bmw 1 series, which i built for my girlfriend
You are one of the few who really deserve that car. Let him serve, I wish him very much.
Surprised the guy that built that engine at every man isn’t in prison for stealing a wage while working there! Lol
That was brilliant to watch it all uninterupted. Great build
1:44:49 just a little heads up, if that’s sealant, you have to go around the full perimeter.. and not leave gaps like that! that’s going to eventually leak
You and your Dad’s energy is amazing. I find myself smiling while watching your channel. Keep up the great work!
Absolutely incredible job, Mat. Once i finished the whole video I realised it is that long. To me it felt like 15mins. You are inspiration for mostly of the people watching here. Keep the positive going on ! Thumbs up!
A proper Armstrong and Son build! ♥ Love the relationship you have with your dad, Mat.
I can honestly tell you marathon watching this video has been a complete pleasure! I have enjoyed watching you and your Father working to build your dream car together! It is something you will always be ever so grateful for doing and carry with you a lifetime of good memories! Well done!
As an older parent, I absolutely love the relationship you have with your Dad. It's something I'm extremely envious about.
Loved watching the full video. I love learning and watching family have fun while rebuilding dream cars. Great job! LOVE IT!
Matt I really enjoyed this one .REBUILDIING AN ABANDONED LAMBORGHINI MURCIELAGO.I was jumping and dancing when your dodgy connections on the clock and center console worked . my wife thought i was crazy .awesome stuff best 5 hours ever. ps..I AM FROM SOUTH AFRICA
i think the gull-wing doors make this lamborghini so distinctive. it shouts " supercar ." Mat has brought me into the fold as these supercars as - really works of art - like a famous statue by a master.
I have no clue why, but I watched this from start to finish. Crazy build. Your video has the early mighty car mods channel vibe. Good luck to you on the next one.
Before watching this, i watched the one about the Porsche GT3 that is about +3hrs. All this is very impressive considering where you are coming from and everything that you have acomplised so far, but to me, the most remarkable thing about all your videos and journeys throuought your re-builds is that your loved ones support you from begining to the end and to have your girl and your Dad supporting, loving and helping you is the outmost remarkable things to see on your videos. You are a very lucky man to have that people around you. Cheers mate!
I'm new to this channel, and I'm loving it. Especially this full build crashed/abandoned car series.
Hy Mat love your videos i'm 64 yr old disable ex lorry driver you crease me you never appear to get down your always lol how dose Hanna cope and your dad is a star keep up the good videos and work keeps me sane lol ty my friend
Ive watched most if not all of the full build videos I think 🤔. But one thing I've noticed is the amount of time it's just Matt and his dad which is fantastic to see . Great father and son time . Especially for his dad being able to pass on his skills and knowledge and seeing his son grow and Matt getting precious time and building fantastic memories with his dad . Sappy I know but great videos and can't wait for more
This is so good! No movie or TV show has me so interested in every second of it, looking at the bolts, at the connectors, the schematics. Thank you so much. Continue with this. But take care of yourself, there's so many big projects!!!
Fantastic video sir. Really enjoying learning with you. Your attention to detail this project is fantastic! Great work and especially on double checking EVERYTHING.
The flap inside the intake manifold essentially opens and closes to change the effective length of the intake. Different length intakes are more efficient at various RPMs so being able to adjust the intake length allows for more power across a wider RPM range.
Great episode lads, 5hrs 😅 I was reluctant to watch but I felt I was there with you guys cheering you on.
Great video Mat - Love to see you are never affraid to strip anything apart to see if it is salvable. You save lot of money on putting in some hard work. Hope this car will give you much joy in the future
The ring footage was mental. All of your flogged your cars proper. Tracking can be scary when so many $$$$ and your body are on the line. Well done lads!
