Also, say hello to my little friend, from Fortune Laser! Thanks for following my journey and stay tuned... 2024 is going to be a great year!

  • Congrats dude! I found you through the Toyota videos , but I'm staying here for your entertaining style. I actually like watching you peel back the skins on the pickup and repair the rust, YT algorithm be damned.

    • Thanks! This machine will speed up the 1980 resto, so I can get my next project in the garage soon - rusty 1985 4runner!

    • It was a great vehicle until the water pump gasket failed on the highway, mixing coolant with oil and sending metal shavings throughout the engine :(

  • Hey man I'm so happy you're doing great. I know you from the Civic EG forum, you were one of the very few that actually answered my questions and honestly some of your tutorials and write-ups in there really inspired me and helped me build some confidence working on cars. Much love and greetings from Eastern Europe!!!

    • Awesome, thank you! The forum is still around, although pretty much a ghost town these days, as most forums are. I've considered closing it down for good many times, but I just can't bring it to myself to delete so much history and quality information from the internet.

  • Congratulations on 100,000 subs!🎉 Brian you earned it! Took the leap and now all the hard work will turn exponential ! To bad that laser showed up after the frame job😅 thats life though. Your in for a great year, just an idea for your channel? You need a second individual in your video's or a work mate to help entertain and team on stuff, the big guys all have a possy.

    • Thanks 👍 yeah, I really miss working with somebody. On the other hand, I do probably get more done without someone to drink beers with! I'll have to get Mikey back out here when I can use a hand putting the ohio cab & engine back onto your southern frame. Thanks again btw - LMK when you're ready to set up your YT channel!

    • I hear ya... I never bothered with growing a channel on FB because a few years ago, I wasn't sure how much longer it would be around... but somehow it's still going. I might as well get some use out of it right? I'll be figuring out the laser next week, the 220 adapter plug in on the way!
