I personally love his personality but it's divisive for sure if you don't like the bluntness (and dad humour). He's just proud of his work and genius garage and his friends I think

[@ScottsSynthStuff]

With the tube and wire frame to the point where you have it now, the overall form of the car is emerging, and you can really get a sense of what it's going to be. It's beautiful, Casey! I love it!

[@evil_me]

god i'm loving this car so far! next build should be a 917 ;)

[@mmonkeyman1403]

A truly lethal car if there ever was one.

[@dB_944]

I made a model of a 917 once upon a time. Flat-twelve power!

[@EarrGasmm]

God the 917 is my favourite fucking car man. So deadly. Flat 12, gorgeous, with a gas filled chassis and an oh shit gauge instead of making it heavier/stronger.

Just so it's been said: Thanks for your HUGE amount of content, exceptional level of content and ambition, and yes, most of us realise that you're kind of a modern day saint (patron saint of petrol heads?!), and we are all very grateful that you do this along side all of your other saintly efforts, I mean, a monster truck and a hot wife,Genius Garage, racing career,and amazing world class car builds and you still have the discipline to not scream Yehaaa! And charge off into the sunset with monster truck and wife!! We are honoured indeed!!!!!! You may need your head examined by a professional!! BUT You are entitled to a holiday or a few days off from time to time, so go play, enjoy yourself, and ignore the haters! The Zero is making huge progress in short time, looks like it's gonna be a stunner in terms of looks and performance, a car built from scratch by the King of KZbin!

This is the point in the project where someone usually tells me "You need to hire a professional." (Which is nearly never the correct approach.) Keep up the good work. It's really coming together.

When I saw you first start the king zero build I was thinking awesome in a few years I'll see a cool car. I had no concept of how fast you could get work done. I'm blown away seeing that you can do so much in so little time. I aspire to do as much with my life as you have.

[@jacklougheed4561]

You should set up a GoPro on a tri pod and record a time lapse as you go. Record some interesting rod bits as you see fit and move it once an hour. Doesn’t get around the editing problem, but it lets you record alone, cover massive ground, and not do a lot of filming

[@aserta]

Time lapses get around the editing problem just fine. I for one, if it's not that big of a hassle for him to get one, would be perfectly ok with Casey chucking a gopro on the bench in front of the supercar and just let'er rip.

In your opening speech, I can clearly see quite a bit of progress on what I'll call the structure/skeleton of the body. I've never built a car, but I restored a 67 Shelby that was crashed, and it's a lot of work and figuring out the proper steps to get the job done right the first time. You're doing an amazing job, and I'll listen and watch the update.

[@pwschuh]

You’ve made a lot of progress. Congrats!

[@keithmason9342]

Great work on King Zero. You have so many irons in the fire, I would be surprised if you didn't occasionally miss a week on something. It's not math class, so I understand not showing all your work. Your videos are always fun, informative, and I love that you don't take yourself too seriously. I always learn something from every video and I love your cars. Thanks again.

[@hilanddoug]

Don't feed the trolls! Just ignore them. That said- WOW! There's a LOT done since we last saw the Zero! Some people may forget, if they ever knew, this is a "scratch" build. No diagram, no instructions, no parts on the shelf. We're all looking forward to seeing whatever progress you make when ever it's made and the majority of us understand it won't happen over night. GREAT update, and nice to see Aaron (Aron? Erin?) working on the Lykan while you were making the video.

[@shelbykingnfs7216]

This car is already gorgeous! Loving your work and this project!

[@mrkevinjmiller]

Recently discovered your channel. Love all the practical engineering you're teaching the young folks. Have been binge watching through your King Zero build. I think this structural build out is very well thought out and done. One minor thing I did notice was the front braces that run from the center out to the front ends of the frame rails. I see it makes sense to do them that way to tie into and strengthen the front end of the frame rails, but they also could channel the car into a vertical object that might be hit roughly front-on (through no fault of the driver of course). If they went the other way, from the wheel well areas in to the front center they would tend to deflect the car away from such an object rather than into it. Probably not worth cutting them out and redoing them, given you've got a lot of strength in the front tubing, but you could add in "X" braces to get roughly the same effect. Keep up the good work.

[@Born_Stellar]

[@Logan-pc1lm]

I really enjoyed the commentary about comments and your thinking about why and what with the build. I'm eager to plan out a budget hot rod build too!

[@pittsguy7]

Something that could help the forward impact would be to use a rohacell foam in the space between the sheet metal nose and the steel tube frame. The foam has been used on aircraft belly skids for load alleviation during a gear up landing. We did some crash dynamic analysis for gear up landing protection of fuel tanks. Basically, something crushable that lets the deceleration occur over a longer distance really helps reduce the loads. Just a thought.

[@captainzoll3303]

"Err, Casey! i don't like your welds! they're not unpenetrated spooge like a real 1970s italian supercar!"

[@leecline5759]

I've been a fan for a while but it's been fun watching this project progress, it's also been fun to watch you. Your mannerisms come off to me as someone with high functioning autism, and it's interesting to watch see features I've been told I have reflected in someone who is successful by their own personal standards. It's really great to see and kind of makes me sad I don't have something similar to genius garage in my neck of the woods. On another hand, I've also been watching this project called Project Binky by Bad Obsession Motorsport, a UK racecar building duo. It's a personal project for them, putting a Celina GT4 engine, turbo, and AWD system into a Mini Cooper, and there are so many running gags about them making it harder on themselves and taking way more time than necessary just to satisfy their desire for quality. It's an interesting contrast to the sort of hectic "if it works it works" of this build and I can honestly say I enjoy both.

Thank you Casey for the hours of free entertainment and inspiration. And remember that most of the complainers think they can do a better job, but never do anything but criticize those who create something inspirational and unique like you are doing. If all the naysayers could actually do a better job we would have hundreds of thousands of custom coachbuildt cars on the roads.

[@bradklingensmith]

This car is just going to be spectacularly awesome. The process is simply incredible. I definitely think you have to take it out for a video ride before you put the body on

[@juscozcustoms]

would you consider putting a washer on the bolts on the rear McPherson strut mounts and welding it to the body to reinforce where the slot is (It's quick and dirty) or are you going to slot the lower hole so you can adjust the camber?

[@johnforeman6620]

Casey, what an exciting project! I have a safety suggestion. If you make the pivots for the screen easily removable from inside, they could be taken out in the event of a front impact. It would not take a lot of a shunt to stop the screen opening and with lower leg injuries getting out of the sides may be impossible. I can almost hear the line forming of people ready to say they told you so. Believe your dream!

[@bottomfr4gye3t8]

Also this build is giving me ideas for my car... although I’ve designed it with a monocoque and then subframes connected to it. Engine is a stressed member, and it’s a twin turbo V8 ;) Though seeing you actually do the work and build something gives me hope and ideas to make my design just that much better!

[@dominicancheif117]

It's coming along great Casey! What color will it be? Hopefully a light one so we can see all of those curves and lines

[@aserta]

Brilliant idea on the rod-end as a hinge. That thing will outlast the car. I've actually used them in the past for a load bearing type door that a client wanted to have open parallel to the facade (rather than pivot). And it's been 5 years now, and there's only 6 cheapo Ford brand rod-ends that hold about 48~50 kg of door.

[@carlsagan2371]

I'm thinking about accidental opening of the windshield at +40mph and acting as a giant air brake and the risk of that ripping the 'door' clean off or at least wrenching it and warping the frame (along with getting a face full of air buffeting to the chops). Should there be some kind of secondary latch to prevent accidentally opening at high speed such as some kind of looped leather strap that you need to undo to release the door if you want to get out.
