Was great you could swing by! You’re welcome at the shop anytime Alex! -Strong’s Garage

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

Thanks guys!

[@Stephen_A.]

Great video Matt and Jim ! 💙

[@rjt67]

Do the guys with the garage want some history on the Fralick on Bayfield St. in Barrie Ontario? I was born in Barrie, and grew up about 25 minutes west in the village of Brentwood. That garage was just up from the bay/waterfront on the west side of the street. Fralick is a common name in town. Let me know and I can check it out. I now live in Sussex New Brunswick but still have lots of friends and ties to Barrie. Let me know.

[@Cate7451]

@@rjt67 I think that would be interesting

[@pomskylifenova7344]

For sure

[@CreatorInTrng]

Thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks for taking us along and thanks to Strongs Garage for taking the time. BTW, nice to see your former fixtures being integrated and utilized.

[@TXMEDRGR]

I love that they are preserving local history.

[@bethcorey6022]

Nostalgia love it

[@SwirlingSoul]

That little old car!... it huffed and it puffed but started just fine. Love it!

[@Kimella777]

It was nice to see where all your cabinetry went. It all ended up in a nice home 😊

[@lisacraze1]

You know I don’t care about cars or racing at all but those two guys are so charming they make it sound delightful. Thank you for introducing us.

[@jenaemarieAZ]

[@donnatouchet2326]

Good morning Hope all is well and Family God Bless you ❤️ all 😀

[@vickilewis6730]

I automatically smiled so big when they got the car started. Just thinking about seeing and hearing the same things as the people who owned it back in time. Thanks for sharing - I didn't know how much I needed to connect with this.

[@rkeller8141]

The car starting part, I thought of my Dad who heard the same sound i heard just now, but probably drove it. Thanks

[@gayle.hampson]

Thank you, thoroughly enjoyed this, I remember watching my father rebirth so many cars and trucks, he was a master like you Alex

[@bethcorey6022]

I gotta friend with a 1930 Modal A beautiful, rumble seat and all.❤

[@NitrousDiecast]

Strongs garage is such a neat place!

[@crinkle2649]

They have some really cool cars there. That old icebox on the balcony is super cool.

[@SnowPink90]

It’s amazing what people find in old sheds and barns. The vintage/antiques in some are incredible!! I love the colour green!!💚💚

[@davidbarnsley8486]

What an amazing building and set up they have 👍👍👍

[@emilyferrante4589]

Ahhh yeah I remember these dudes! Wow they're shop looks great!

[@kaybergstrom7517]

I saw a citrine on Midsomer Murders on PBS last night. Same red color and even had the metal trim under the doors. Thought of you and it gave me a little thrill since I'd watched you bring your car back from the dead.

[@paulabarnes3351]

I have smiled through this whole video. The knowledge, good cheer and excitement is pure Joy.

[@dianac5764]

That is such a cute shop. It could become a museum.

[@keithbriere]

Good morning Alexander. Happy to join you today. 🙂

[@talfacprez]

I can't wait to see Jim's old Continental Mark II when he gets it done.

[@kermitwardell3345]

I actually worked in a Ford garage in 1967 , being inside the full garage like this just made me remember. The garage was built for Modal A's.

[@sylviahoffman9440]

That was awesome. I LOVE the old pre-1950s cars. Thanks for asking them to start up the Rumbler! That was so cool to hear it going. Glad your car battery didn't give you any more issues.

[@magickmoi1261]

Wonderful that your shelves live again. He did a great job !

[@roywills5387]

Ya'll are living the fantasy!! Thank you for sharing!

[@Katiedid1975]

I loved this video and these fellas. Drop in on them every now and then.

[@caroljohnson3698]

Great Video. Thank you Alexander and Strongs Garage.

[@gweniawilliams6815]

That car loves you for taking care of it

[@laurieedeburn2449]

[@dangoodall-williams4200]

You need to see Jim's Lincoln Continental that Scott fabricated an entire quarter panel. Great bunch of guys.

[@jeanadamsick9854]

SO COOL & AMAZING THE, 1931 CHEVEY, BARN FIND, CRANKED UP SO QUICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do take care. Fl., U.S.A.

[@maddieadams75]

Thanks for the adventures with Matt and Jim always fun ❤

[@vzeimen]

I was hoping we'd get to see this old garage again. I love this place.

[@thefox7073]

You can't kill those old cars. Amazing how they fire right up!

[@marystrenke3050]

Another Alex Archbold Adventure!!! 😊

[@plunkervillerr1529]

GOD BLESS , and keep on plunking .

[@The_Smith]

Love Matt's Merc! I learned to drive a 3 on a tree in a 1965 Merc . Always love a visit to Strong's Garage, thanks for taking us along. Glad your charging system sorted it's self out.

[@kellycal124]

Very cool! 😎

[@philipdecatanzaro1822]

I wouldn't have thought a few years ago - now Alex is part of my favorite car scene in Edmonton. I've been following Scott for years and now Matt and Jim. Nice to know.

[@jwall6006]

That was an awesome shop to tour. It reminded me of the shop that my dad worked at in the early 60s. It had been open since the early 30s. My dad’s bay was always spotless as were his tools. He would get so upset if someone would borrow a tool and put it back greasy or not return it. He passed the take care of your tools on.

[@darlenemcintyre9998]

That Coop reminds me of the car "John Boy" drove on the "Walton's". 💗

[@MoonRaven777]

That shop looks gorgeous with your shelves!😍Omg…I adore all those old cars!!🥰

[@BobOgden1]

What a great sound and from a car that sat so long

[@simquicky3448]

Yesss…I love a good barn find start video. Absolutely loving all the car content again lately! Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

[@GSXR750ization]

Really like this episode. Matt and Jim seems really great. Love the old school style. Subscribed to them aswell. Really cool.

[@_JanetLouise]

Great tour & interview. cool place. cool guys. mahalo

[@pallecla]

True car geeks. Love it.

[@ivydickson7596]

Wow! Awesome that the car started. What a cool car.

[@ivydickson7596]

Watching from New Zealand. Saturday morning here.

[@gracewashburn8276]

Wow what a find that was nice

[@andrewkiwi1]

That was great Ah it's Jim! Its a small world. I know Jim as Scots friend from Cold War Motors. And here I am in NZ watching .LOL

[@outlookesp]

The little guy is a real character!

[@magickmoi1261]

😮 it runs! That headlight is amazing!

[@katwitanruna]

What fun!

[@franswey2]

Thank you for sharing. I really enjoyed visiting with the guy’s again. Apparently, they have a magic touch, like you, when it comes to starting old cars, as if by magic!

[@johnanchovie2b]

Wonderful to nose around a 1920s era WORKING garage. Thanks for taking us along, Alex.

[@bncytiggs]

Love listening to that engine!!!!!! Thanks Strongs!

[@darrenbrisson4336]

Oh cool you had Jim from cold war motors on the vlog love watching Canadian KZbin channels Alex you have a good channel

[@wnharms]

Lol. As a 30 year old female, I had to explain to my friends this past week why I have a bunch of car restoration videos in my history. Apparently females my age don't typically watch these types of videos lol. But I find them fascinating!

[@judithfairchild8620]

Yeah male chauvinists are still around. When I was in high school 60 plus years ago I wanted to take shop. I was sternly told "Shop is not for girls" I was so mad but that was the way it was.

[@nancycornett9949]

Thank you Alex

[@frankiecarrel9794]

That was cool seeing your old child's getting fgetting put to good use and seeing the oak cars

[@pattiripley7599]

Love their shop and the old cars. Would love to have one but not in my options. I can enjoy through you and not have to pay for gas and upkeep. The smell and ambiance is missing though.

[@TheTubeTube2]

Matt and Jim’s Strong’s Garage is a wonder! They are always such fun so thank’s for the visit I really enjoyed it!

[@Catmoore60]

My grandpa had a new ‘boat’ every two years when I was a kid in the 60-70s…he kept them immaculate, and I always wondered what happened to them. So cool to see one again in nearly the same color and condition!!

[@sandranokes7443]

Two guys living their dream. What a great shop.

[@daveco1270]

Cool stuff. Lots of green cars. I'm guessing that's his favorite color.

[@noelmcgarry456]

Great to see you with the guys from Strongs Garage love there work

[@amadeo_serrano]

The charge light coming on in traffic and going off on the highway could indicate an alternator or the regulating circuit getting weak.

[@matthewfocke5360]

It's a Canadian Antique car brotherhood...Go Edmondton! Thanks for sharing.

[@JohnMoore-rv4zm]

As a devotee of Curiosity Inc since before we learned who Mary was, this was a joy to see and a whole new Canadian friend following the dream. It's a gift that keeps on giving, Alex. I remember watching you buy some of the artifacts in the Edmonton Hot Rod Museum, the shelves they were on, and Josh install/rebuilding them. Feels good to see you get those pieces in just the right hands. I'm figuring your Citroen got you home in high style.❤

[@CuriosityIncorporated]

Thanks John!

[@Rom3_29]

Joys of owning a special rare classic…

[@terryschuh6596]

It’s funny that these 2 guys talk over each other constantly…lol

[@marystrenke3050]

I LOVE that garage! So cool 😎 Great seeing your shelves there☺️

[@allyjohnston3151]

My dad's birthday was January 10, 1926.....and now I know it was on a Sunday :)

[@crinkle2649]

I'm glad to see the shelves are being used in a great way.

[@49walker44]

Wonderful shop, living the dream. Look up the wreck between a 59 Impala and a new one, outcome is surprising. To be young again with a setup like that to develop, so fun.

[@LJ-qk8ui]

Awesome video!

[@lindapeterson2684]

I really enjoyed this video….So satisfying to see like minded auto pursuits collaborating together for our enjoyment…

[@paolasignorelli1051]

It was a really lovely place, lots of smart cars, how wonderful to see more of history 's great cars. Lots for children to see as well , the guys where very nice and had a lot of knowledge great 👍😀

[@proudvirginian]

I'm always looking forward to my Edmonton or Brüderheim KZbinr videos. I watch Matt and Jim to get ideas on my own garbage(which houses a '31 Model A).

[@AndyGeesGarage]

Bought a few bits n pieces for my 50s style T hot rod from Matt and will probably buy a few more before I’m done. I definitely need to make a trip out to the shop before the snow flies.

[@johnhere6058]

I sold Matt a 36 Ford 5 window about 12 years ago - I had pulled it out of a shed on a farm where the car had been all its life

[@deborahkimball-billups6405]

Thanks for sharing another great video

[@marcellashirk8676]

Love your hard work making us great videos much appreciated.

[@paulasmith3590]

Love the seat. Miss the ones like this.

[@entropyfan5714]

Very nice of Alex to shout these guys out.

[@lanitaorjeraldlewisdillorl2258]

Great video! 😍👍

[@deanbrunner261]

I like this circle of friends that you all run in. curiosity --strongs garage ---coldwarmotors---all good friends. hard to come by in these times.keep on keeping on

[@HUSTLERS1]

Good classic car's

[@b.neallee7042]

That citron is a keeper. Hope you do. You are an old soul like me. I like your content.

[@lesleybennet4804]

Loved watching your video today with those really old cars couldn’t believe they got one started ❤😊

[@l.m.o.8948]

So enjoyable to hang out with you guys as I do my slow stitching and enjoy my morning coffee. I could have totally enjoyed a visit there with Alex. It was how we spent out dating nights in the 70’s , hanging out while someone was fixing their car. You could fix them yourself then. 🇨🇦

[@judithfairchild8620]

Such a delight to see stuff older than me running good. When I was very young a friend of the family had the car similar to one of the older cars not as old as the one you started. He drove that car for about 30 years and had no problems with it.

[@TheLoonlady]

Oh, my gosh.....wish I wasn't nearly 80 yrs old....that Chev. makes me want to get my hands dirty & join a car club !..... No tools any more, either but Wow...that looks like fun ! (money pit ?)

[@petat13]

What a cool garage! Thanks for taking us there Alex.

[@teresapaskell5459]

These guys are fascinating

[@patstevens1913]

Great video I love the old cars and trucks

[@DetroitMicroSound]
