I have adopted the same principle you described about investing in yourself and doing it yourself but with my house renovation, and starting down the path of more involved car stuff soon.

I love this video. I built cars with my friends as a teenager learning by doing making mistakes and trying again and then got married and had kids and didn’t touch cars for a long time. Then my kids got to the age to drive and into cars and passed on my knowledge to them helping them with their cars. I still don’t have a lot of money to pay someone to build my dream car an LC Torana GTR XU1 in Plumdinger. I can’t afford a 2 door let alone the XU1 but found an LC Torana 4 door. I have spent the last couple of years working on it and get what you were saying about the motivation. I spent 6 months not touching the car when I was struggling with the cutting and welding and didn’t seem to be making any progress making mistakes and re doing it again but the satisfaction you get from those little wins encourages me to keep going. It’s taking me way longer than I expected but it’s my dream car so I keep going saving money buy parts get back in the shed and do the next thing. Your an inspiration to many young people mate so don’t sell yourself short. I know for myself I have learned things watching your videos and I am sure I wouldn’t be the only one. Keep up the great work.

I agree the world has gone to shit, I train auto motive apprentices, and I also train mechanical engineers. It’s hard to get the youth of today to understand that hard work does pay off, and that just because you don’t have a million dollars in the bank doesn’t mean your life is fulfilled. I see myself so lucky to have the opportunity to impart my knowledge of trades to the youth of today, and see them succeed. Love your show, and thank you for speaking out mate.legend

Hey mate love your channel it shows people that you don't need $100,000 to build a car! i have to say though and im not trying to take anything away from you, 80 git then bogging over acrilic paint is not a good thing!, I've been painting in smash shops for 20 years then had my own resto shop for 10 years till I had an condition that put me in a wheelchair, I know that body filler has come along way over the years but all commodores were painted in acrilic up until the vs some were 2k we use to have to do the thinners test, anyway what im saying is acrilic is thermo plastic not a stable base to fill over and to be honest that bog will not last over the acrilic paint, you are best off paint stripping the acrilic off because even 40 grit pad on a buff will just make it melt not sand, please don't bog over acrilic you do such a good job but its such a huge mistake, even bogging over 2k I would bare metal the main low spot then blend the filler, also there is spray polly a spray on bog basically wich is goes on even without applicator highs, keep up the great work but please don't bog over acrilic paint makes me cringe, cheers Adam
