The smile you had when you let the clutch out for the first time was priceless. Great parents build great kids i've followed you since the tank not missed a single video i have no doubt you are destined to do great things
Yeah, it's an amazing family. My parents didn't do anything with me, and I think that's why I'm lacking in so many areas. This kid is going to change the world.
OMG! After all the ups and downs here you are victorious! It’s such a cool project and you should be so proud of yourself. Kudos to Dad for his help and support! 👍🏼
This is one of the most genuine channels on TH-cam. Glad you got it running before you step into the next phase of your life. Best of luck in your carrier.
Not many people of any age can say they built their own car, much less people as young as you! Amazing work all the way through! I hope your new job is as interesting and challenging to you as this build was, because it would be a shame for any company to waste the brains and skills you have! Thanks for bringing us along!
I've followed you since the start of this project. Being of a similar vintage to your father, I can feel the pride , and as you are a similar age to my own son, I can sense the feeling of achievement; I also appreciate the contribution of your mother! As a Morgan driver, it was such a joy to see this work of art drive under its own steam. Good luck with your career, we'll wait with bated breath for further updates. Greetings from a fan in the UK
Your joy and your parents’ seeing you drive your creation for the first time - what a wonderful achievement and a moment we’re all so glad and proud to witness. From thinking we may never see the car completed when you went off to SpaceX , to watching you drive around with that huge grin on your face, just awesome man, CONGRATULATIONS and thank you !!
I’m watching this again. I have had a dream of building my own car from scratch ever since I can remember. You have achieved what I could only dream of. Having the skill and opportunity is no small feat. I felt a certain vicarious thrill watching each and every episode multiple times. Your parents should be immensely proud.
BIG Kudos!!! Life is a Journey, Enjoy the Ride! Thanks for taking us along for the ride on this part of the journey!... Seeing your smile is worth the price of admission to the "Club of Accomplishment"!👍. Can't wait for parts # 61+. 😁 Kudos Young Man, Kudos!!
There’s nobody like dad. I am an older man now but I remember my dad he was also a machinist before the days of computers. He worked for Eagle electric manufacturing company Long Island city New York for 40 years, I think the silver cup movie studios are there now. I was always close with my dad working with him pretty much the way you do ❤️🔥God bless you sir❤️🔥 ✨Good luck always.
You're lucky to have a Dad like that with such a great shop and knowledge. Car looks good, seams in the Boat tail came out nice, proportions are right. Seat to dash looks a little tight. I added 8" to seat area at the bottom of the scuttle and boat tail. Ground clearance can be adjusted by raising the hairpins in the front and steering control. Suspension works! Gives you renewed energy when you take it for a spin! Engine turned dash? Cowhide seat? Knock-offs? Dash mag? Make sure you visit Mullins and the Peterson since you're in California, I did while I was building mine.
Massive respect! This has been a courageous project from day 1 and most of the build would have foxed seasoned professionals let alone a high-school graduate. You've been willing to push the envelope at every stage of the build. It's always a pleasure to watch people travel outside their comfort zone when it comes to skill acquisition and thinking laterally regarding problem solving. I'm sure many on here would join me in wishing you every success in your future endeavours. As someone who began a vintage car restoration at 18 and had to abandon it due to a lack of resources and build-space, I've been watching your project with mounting envy and excitement. Kudos!
What a beauty of a machine. Really worth the journey. I would say I can't wait to see it finished but having even more episodes to watch isn't a punishment ;). Awesome job man.
A great project you started as a boy and are completing as a man, Beautiful craftmanship throughout the build. I hope nothing but the best for you in your career. A big thank you to your parents for there obvious love and support. I would recommend you to get a leather helmet and goggles to complete the look. PS I'm envious your first experience driving a standard was a boat-tail speedster where mine was a 72 Datsun truck.
That smile!! Thank you for sharing al of this with us. Congratulations on a job VERY well done. Perhaps when you get it all finished you can show it off on Jay Leno's Garage. He would no doubt have you on.
Thank You for sharing this occasion whit us viewers! I also share your fondness of old racers, an integral part of my hot rodding values. It's been a pleasure following your build.
I’m not sure what I enjoyed the most your smile or your dads laugh..😂🤣👍🏻.fantastic work I’ll wait another 4/5,6years until you finish it…👍🏻😂🤣🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
You have a gift and have chosen the right vocation. Your new employer is fortunate to have. I am 80 years old and have watched this complete build in awe.
I’ve been watching you since you built the tank and have always admired your abilities especially at such a young age. Your skill and craftsmanship is second to none. This was a great episode and I’ve been anticipating it for years now. I don’t know you personally but proud of you for accomplishing driving it and it looks amazing. Not many people can take nothing a build something like a car from it. When you first smiled driving it reminded me of my youth with my father first driving and wrenching with him. Awesome video and congratulations all around.
That ear to ear grin on your face and your dads proud chuckle when you drove it the first time…that’s what it’s all about. Awesome stuff man, awesome stuff.
Mate , I know there were times during this build that you wanted to smash it to bits , set fire too it and walk away. The fact that you haven't is one of the most impressive things about it. I take my hat off to some serious dedication and a super cool build.
As the Brits are want to say: Well Done Laddy Well Done. A shout out to your proud parents as well. You raised a wonderful son and he will carry your love and devotion along his journey! Godspeed
Yes!! Your smile was well deserved! Your mum and dad seemed so proud! My wife asked me why are you grinning like a Cheshire cat? I said I can't help it I feel elated ! I too am proud to see this milestone! Thanks
What a sense of accomplishment, all the memories made, and the dream realized. Looking forward to future videos and where this journey leads. You are blessed with the support of your Dad and Mom. Congratulations!
Wooooooooow!!! I am at a loss for words right now! The smile on all of y’all’s faces says it all💪🏼❤️🙏🏻👏🏼🎉🎉🎉🤣 Congratulations to all of your amazing family support and accomplishments,Sir! I have watched your build from the beginning and all I can say is WOW!!!
I can't believe it has been 4 years from the very start of the project. It has been amazing to see you build the car from the ground up. Looking forward to the forth coming videos and the finished car when ever that will be.
This was an epic moment, watched ya from your beginnings, incredible skills , dad, mom 👍🏼 , can’t wait to see it completed if you still have time , I’m a really old coot a word of advise , don’t ever get rid of it ! When I look back at a lot of special projects I’d done I want to kick myself in the back side when I got rid of them down the road , it’s a part of your life enjoy it till the end ! Good job young man!
Wow... what an accomplishment. I couldn't help but feel incredible joy when you first started it up and made that huge smile. Genuinely impressed and happy to have been following along with the build.
Fantastic! For years I've fantasised about building a sports car around an XK engine. And there, you've gone and done it! The XK is, in my opinion, the best engine in the world, perhaps with the exception of the RR Merlin. Good work lad. Cheers.
Really incredible to see this milestone achieved. I found your channel when you were reversing spring eyes and it inspired me to start my own channel. I feel like I’ve watched you grow up, in a way, and have always been completely blown away by your talent and humble nature. Your parents must be immensely proud of you. Now go do amazing things in your new career. And throw us all a “howdy” when it suits you; I know we’ll all be eager to know what you’re up to, even if it’s not automotive related.
That car is beautiful. The lines are so graceful and fast. Kudos to your mom for stepping up. I’m not surprised. You are obviously a product of sound parenting. Congrats on getting that beauty rolling!
From go-karts to race cars I knew exactly how you felt when you got to drive it for the first time. I was right along with you on your ride. Very well done young man.
I remember when you made that four wheel motorcycle with the valve cover gas tank. You've come a long way. I like the car. Not my style but it keeps getting prettier the longer i look at it. Good fortune to you, continued success and thanks for sharing!😃
I’ve been watching from the start of this project and went back to see your other work. The smile on your face when you first let out the clutch and started driving was clearly one of great accomplishment! Great job!
The day you'll drive it on the road, don't forget to wear gogles if you want to to drive more than 25mph. Because those Brookland style "windshield" ain't gonna shield from the wind. Talking from experience right here. I'm super happy for you to finally drive it.
Thanks to algorithms I landed here, BIG thumbs up. Now I'll work my way to the beginning of this project, Take good care of yourself, by the way you have a seriously nice Fishtail.
You should be rightly proud of what you've achieved here, but I can only imagine how your dad feels - "proud" probably doesn't even scratch the surface. So great to see the car moving under its own power at last!
Really enjoyed another great installment of the speedster build, you are one talented young man with so many brilliant qualities . Again I will look forward to your next installment
AWESOME!!!!! The smile on your face is priceless. WELL DONE!!!!!. Congrats on your college degree. Best wishes in the aviation industry. THANK YOU Mom and Dad!!!!!! What proud parents you must be. Looking forward to postings from your next adventure(s). Cheers and admiration.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Great job young fella!! That smile on your face is well worth the blood sweat and tears that go into a build like this!! And congratulations also to Dad and Mum for inspiring and helping you with the whole thing!
Thank you for your ongoing gift to all makers, all lovers of things internal combustion, those who appreciate the curvaceousness of cars between the world wars, all kids, and anyone who likes the feel of a tool in her or his hand and the puzzlement of anything mechanical. We all appreciate you beyond measure.
i'm very late to comment, but need to say it. Not sure if you understand the significance of what happens at 6:34, but it's probably the closest thing to the meaning of life. You and your dad both nod in acknowledgement (together) when the engine does exactly what you thought it would. It's confirming, affirming, and because you both share it, endearing. Congrats man; this was such a special moment for a lot of reasons!
I showed my wife the clip of when you first drove the car. Her comment was "His face is pure joy." It's been a fun journey watching you get this far and I look forward to future videos when life gives you a chance to do so.
All I can say is amazing. Congratulations on all your hard work. Been watching for years now before this even started. So great to see it moving. Love the big smile.
I was excited to see you with a great smile on your face , I smiled along with you too. It has been an exciting build and SHOUT out to your Parents who must be so proud. I hope you are into Engineering as a career.
Bravo et félicitations. Moi aussi depuis quatre ans j'attends ce moment. Lorsque le moteur démarre, vos regards entre vous montrent le bonheur, la fierté et la complicité d'être ensemble. Je suis un vieille homme amoureux de l'automobile. Encore d'immenses bravos depuis Paris.
"My dad built this little bracket ... which also holds our gastank" - Well done, TH-cam just saw enpassantly where part of the practical ingenuity leading to Your very nice speedster originally came from - Also well done how You added Your own perseverance and didn't just put it aside when college called .... It's hard to decide who of You two is more proud of that first round on the lawn, and for all the different reasons 😁Thanks for sharing, and have fun going places, Young man! It was a lovely, often surprising ride to that first run, which I never not enjoyed all those years.
Hammer 👍😍 in dem Alter überhaupt so etwas zu bauen und dann noch zu fahren, ist eine sehr bemerkenswerte Leistung die ihresgleichen sucht. Größten Respekt 👍
I can't remember ever being so genuinely excited and happy for people I've never met or will likely ever meet before. When you let the clutch out and drove it made me smile too. Congratulations on so many levels.
HOT DIGGITY DAMN! Man I tell you what. That smile said it all. Made me drop the phone and do a back flip, more like 180 on my head. HOLY SHLIP. Thats the best feeling in the world. Congratulations. Inspired me to drop the money I have been saving and by my Factory Five Cobra. Ive have been saving and planing it for years. Never a good time just gotta do it. So damn happy for you. Can not wait to feel and that first drive my self now. Been watching this since the day you started up loading for it. Just outstanding. Damn fine work to you and mom and dad.
Well done. Loved the smile. What a great job you have done on this car. The car looks fantastic driving around the yard. I stumbled across your channel when you were building the tank. Great work 👏 👍
Love it, love the clip when the engine fires and your dad's look and laugh! Want to see it driving on the road or a track, to see it going thru the gears!
It's been an absolute pleasure watching the progression of this build, and what a great moment, seeing you drive it with that smile on your face, hearing how proud your dad was. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us all!
Congratulations!! I’ve been watching as I worked my last years before retirement and the first 2 years of retirement. You have done what very few people have been able to do and have done it with skill and ingenuity. You should be very proud of your accomplishments and thankful for the gift of supportive parents. Best wishes for your future endeavors.
The smile you had when you let the clutch out for the first time was priceless. Great parents build great kids i've followed you since the tank not missed a single video i have no doubt you are destined to do great things
Yeah, it's an amazing family. My parents didn't do anything with me, and I think that's why I'm lacking in so many areas. This kid is going to change the world.
@@andoletube mine were absent as well
Totally agree - that big cheesy grin said it all. Nice work, all concerned!
OMG! After all the ups and downs here you are victorious! It’s such a cool project and you should be so proud of yourself. Kudos to Dad for his help and support! 👍🏼
Oh, and thanks Mom!

Could you have a wider smile on your face as you were driving? 😊 What a monumental step to this wonderful journey! Can’t wait to see what’s next! ❤❤
It's good to see a video with the man behind the young genius, Dad
A great project you started as a boy and are completing as a man, Beautiful craftmanship throughout the build. I hope nothing but the best for you in your career.

Your old man has got to be proud! That is one of the coolest builds I have seen.
It was great hearing your dad being so proud of you
Great to see congratulations! Inspiring! Your dad is so proud, we can hear it in his voice!
Not too sure which was the best moment; seeing you drive it or hearing your dad laugh. Priceless!
You have a gift and have chosen the right vocation. Your new employer is fortunate to have. I am 80 years old and have watched this complete build in awe.
1;30 am on the other side of the world……but I clicked , couldn’t wait 😊
Superb! The look of this car is perfect. I watched all episodes from the start and I am genuinely impressed! Respect!
Waaaaaaaay cool. Those have got to be some proud parents. Thanks for sharing this build.
That smile on your face bro! And the pride in pops voice. Well done engineer!
I’ve been watching you since you built the tank and have always admired your abilities especially at such a young age. Your skill and craftsmanship is second to none.

The look on your face says it all. You clearly have very loving and supportive parents too. Can't wait for the next video.
Yes!! Your smile was well deserved! Your mum and dad seemed so proud! My wife asked me why are you grinning like a Cheshire cat? I said I can't help it I feel elated ! I too am proud to see this milestone! Thanks
Tears of joy on my face, laying here in a hospital bed cheering you on as you make your rounds in the yard.
What a sense of accomplishment, all the memories made, and the dream realized. Looking forward to future videos and where this journey leads. You are blessed with the support of your Dad and Mom. Congratulations!
Wooooooooow!!! I am at a loss for words right now! The smile on all of y’all’s faces says it all💪🏼❤️🙏🏻👏🏼🎉🎉🎉🤣
Congratulations to all of your amazing family support and accomplishments,Sir!
I have watched your build from the beginning and all I can say is WOW!!!
4 years watching this build it is so awesome to see it make it this far. Don't give up please it is so awesome to watch this labor love🥰
I can't believe it has been 4 years from the very start of the project. It has been amazing to see you build the car from the ground up. Looking forward to the forth coming videos and the finished car when ever that will be.
That smile and the giggles say it all. I'm so glad I discovered your channel. You're such an inspiration for even a 69 year old man like me.
I am very happy to see you moving these wheels after years of working on them . My greetings from Egypt
FANTASTIC , I have done this over 30 years ago and still drive mine every weekend, enjoy , you deserve it.
Congrats.
This was an epic moment, watched ya from your beginnings, incredible skills , dad, mom 👍🏼 , can’t wait to see it completed if you still have time , I’m a really old coot a word of advise , don’t ever get rid of it !

The look on your face tells it all four years I've been watching you build this car amazing work you're a great inspiration thank you very much
Fantastic! For years I've fantasised about building a sports car around an XK engine. And there, you've gone and done it! The XK is, in my opinion, the best engine in the world, perhaps with the exception of the RR Merlin. Good work lad. Cheers.
Really incredible to see this milestone achieved. I found your channel when you were reversing spring eyes and it inspired me to start my own channel.

Well done dude! I can't wait to see this beauty completed. Proud family behind the cameras there!
We here in Finland have been following you since the tank. By petrolheads who graduated in the early 90's. Good job!
I’ve been watching from the start of this project and went back to see your other work. The smile on your face when you first let out the clutch and started driving was clearly one of great accomplishment! Great job!
The day you'll drive it on the road, don't forget to wear gogles if you want to to drive more than 25mph. Because those Brookland style "windshield" ain't gonna shield from the wind. Talking from experience right here. I'm super happy for you to finally drive it.
Thanks to algorithms I landed here, BIG thumbs up.
Now I'll work my way to the beginning of this project,
Take good care of yourself,
by the way
you have a seriously nice Fishtail.
You should be rightly proud of what you've achieved here, but I can only imagine how your dad feels - "proud" probably doesn't even scratch the surface. So great to see the car moving under its own power at last!
One of the best things on TH-cam. Watched you make this from start to finish. The smile on your face at the end says everything
Really enjoyed another great installment of the speedster build, you are one talented young man with so many brilliant qualities .
Again I will look forward to your next installment
This brought tears to my eyes watching the smile on your face for the first drive . Congratulations !
AWESOME!!!!! The smile on your face is priceless. WELL DONE!!!!!. Congrats on your college degree. Best wishes in the aviation industry. THANK YOU Mom and Dad!!!!!! What proud parents you must be. Looking forward to postings from your next adventure(s). Cheers and admiration.
Bravo, you are a inspiration for today's youth. Everyone was so proud and happy 👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great job young fella!!
That smile on your face is well worth the blood sweat and tears that go into a build like this!! And congratulations also to Dad and Mum for inspiring and helping you with the whole thing!
Huge build, huge progress. Congratulations. You can literally enjoy this for the rest of your life and hand it down to your kids someday.
Thank you for your ongoing gift to all makers, all lovers of things internal combustion, those who appreciate the curvaceousness of cars between the world wars, all kids, and anyone who likes the feel of a tool in her or his hand and the puzzlement of anything mechanical. We all appreciate you beyond measure.
The smile on your face the whole time tells the whole story.
Awesome work. Can't wait to see this thing complete.
i'm very late to comment, but need to say it. Not sure if you understand the significance of what happens at 6:34, but it's probably the closest thing to the meaning of life. You and your dad both nod in acknowledgement (together) when the engine does exactly what you thought it would. It's confirming, affirming, and because you both share it, endearing. Congrats man; this was such a special moment for a lot of reasons!
Congratulations on your hard work finally paying off. Before I went off to school myself this project was a huge inspiration for my own.
I have been watching this build since day one and I have been waiting for this day for so long now. I am so happy to see you driving it
I showed my wife the clip of when you first drove the car. Her comment was "His face is pure joy." It's been a fun journey watching you get this far and I look forward to future videos when life gives you a chance to do so.
All I can say is amazing. Congratulations on all your hard work. Been watching for years now before this even started. So great to see it moving. Love the big smile.
I was excited to see you with a great smile on your face , I smiled along with you too. It has been an exciting build and SHOUT out to your Parents who must be so proud. I hope you are into Engineering as a career.
Outstanding accomplishment. I'm 6+ yrs in mine and I'm retired now! Great job. Very impressed.
Bravo et félicitations. Moi aussi depuis quatre ans j'attends ce moment. Lorsque le moteur démarre, vos regards entre vous montrent le bonheur, la fierté et la complicité d'être ensemble. Je suis un vieille homme amoureux de l'automobile. Encore d'immenses bravos depuis Paris.

Best wishes ! Wherever you land, I'm sure you'll excell,. Cheers !

Great job you have built a highly desirable roadster. You craftsmanship is second to none congratulations on your success
Feeling the pride your Dad convey in his laugh and comments. Not quite the culmination of this project but an amazing achievement so far.
You put a smile on my face too mate when it started to move .Well done.
HOT DIGGITY DAMN! Man I tell you what. That smile said it all. Made me drop the phone and do a back flip, more like 180 on my head. HOLY SHLIP. Thats the best feeling in the world. Congratulations. Inspired me to drop the money I have been saving and by my Factory Five Cobra. Ive have been saving and planing it for years. Never a good time just gotta do it. So damn happy for you. Can not wait to feel and that first drive my self now. Been watching this since the day you started up loading for it. Just outstanding.
Damn fine work to you and mom and dad.
That's awesome! Good luck!
Well done. Loved the smile. What a great job you have done on this car. The car looks fantastic driving around the yard. I stumbled across your channel when you were building the tank. Great work 👏 👍
Love it, love the clip when the engine fires and your dad's look and laugh! Want to see it driving on the road or a track, to see it going thru the gears!
Woohoo! She's alive! Congratulations on all of your hard work finally paying off. A well deserved ear-to-ear grin.
It's been an absolute pleasure watching the progression of this build, and what a great moment, seeing you drive it with that smile on your face, hearing how proud your dad was. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us all!
Congratulations!! I’ve been watching as I worked my last years before retirement and the first 2 years of retirement. You have done what very few people have been able to do and have done it with skill and ingenuity. You should be very proud of your accomplishments and thankful for the gift of supportive parents. Best wishes for your future endeavors.
