Man I can’t believe it’s been this long. I really miss the Germany days of the channel. The crazy barn with the awful floor, the amazing house, the junkyard, everything. Even Steve the bird.

[@adiriko]

@@snaswedey yeah we havent seen here for a while, shes a keeper for sure and also brings good vibes to Chris channel. Love both of them. Miss the Germany days too but you know, life goes on😉

[@teamphashash]

My wife and I were just talking about that. The content from Germany was fire. Especially the junkyard finds.

[@nikolatadic9296]

Man i can't believe how far you have come since like 2 years ago and how much you've done and accomplished, especially with the Savoy. While watching your videos, i feel proud because there are still people that take care of old VWs. Keep rocking man!

[@indycollie6424]

This was both amazing, and .. idk, I don't want to say sad, but soulful. I know this had to be difficult in a way. We are hear for you. Anytime. You have given so much. I appreciate you.

[@livviolet]

It was awesome watching you build this gorgeous car in real time, but so cool to see the process fast-forwarded. You put in serious work on this build!

[@MikeyV2]

Watching all these builds over the years, watching you grow with your cars and the passion you put into them, has been awesome to watch man. Following your journey and the amount of things I’ve learned from you and the impact you’ve made on the community is just incredible. This is only the beginning, and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for you and the next chapter ahead.

[@RickGTI2019]

Nice time capsule of the Savoy. You out did yourself this time. Thanks again, RickGTI….. 🌴

[@teamphashash]

Ended that video with that backflip. Havent seen that in a minute! All the best for 2023 and hope you can now get to drive and enjoy the fruits of your labour.Salut!

[@timmaxwell82]

[@noecoenen2849]

I enjoy your video's Chris. I've been following your channel for 2 years now. I have learned many things and tricks that help me build my own mk3. 😍

[@TutanchAmumu]

Munching Haribo while working on a Volkswagen is a vibe!

[@Whatshouldicallit660]

What a banger of a Video! Thanks for putting in that work Christian! It was fun, but also a little sad to watch, since you’re not here in Germany anymore! Miss these days ❤️

[@brianzwuup6875]

[@gerobrandes2206]

[@rcflyer2000]

Thanks for making this video of the Savoy from the beginning to its appearance at Helen 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I didn't make to Helen that year, but I'm looking forward to seeing you and this Mk3 at Euro Tripper in the near future 🛣️

[@CorollaMAD97]

[@craZy_y0]

Awesome man, you should definitely do more of these soon because it's really cool seeing the whole product in a video (as well as progressively completing the project day by day with new videos and stuff). Also do you still have that song on you from the spray painting the VR5 video??

You dont need more than that. Thats a perfect car right there. Nice build!

[@ToxxicRemedy]

I love it when a plan comes together. Glad I was able to see it that year at Helen. Honestly was looking at the car for a few seconds before I realized... then I was like wtf.??? I hadn't been following the recent videos leading up to that. But quickly realized it was a surprise anyways. Good shit though man!

[@BLENDIVERSE-]

[@eddiemichael4333]

I just admire you,the "demon" car and your mk lV Jetta I love them.

[@camisetaroxa8919]

Very good work💯💯👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@loutenant9480]

[@juliomarques149]

Nice job and nice mk3 😍👌👌👌

[@VWPassat_3BG]

Germany was the best days for you and for the channel Christian 🤙🏻 I miss those video's. Not sure what happened when you moved back from Germany to North Dakota and then to Florida in a sudden. Cool video tho bro 👍

[@xyience1337]

Spectacular!

[@miki30d43]

nice job bro ✌😁

[@izzyvw7510]

Nice video.

[@dubtechworld8460]

13:19 that starter noise

[@eurodriven9456]

I'm still in disbelief on how well the point on the body held up over 20+ years. The chances you find a junkyard car with the paint on the body in that condition just blows my mind haha. And idk man, personally I think I'd choose this color over the Pink Floyd 😉🤷🏼‍♂️

[@frankpetters1149]

Top gemacht.

[@ciaciociacio1912]

Awesome build. Want to do the same with 1.9 TDI before 2035 :D

[@gregorioserranosaucedo2948]

Me gustó mucho felicidades hermano muy bonito golf 😍 que rines son esos?

[@BMSmouthers]

Mannn I really miss the Germany days! This video absolutely blew up dude!!

[@MichaelHartl-qo3uz]

Cooles Auto....👍👍👍, Super Arbeit....

[@JP-mj8ih]

Damn, I’ve been looking for the rear matching floor mats to those ones up front you revealed early in the video.

[@waylandsmith3981]

Uncle Christian I love this but, I’d love to see how she’s doing now 😭🫶🏽

[@mrvento_za]

I saw her in a Jimmy Oakes video. Hopefully she'll come out of hiding in the not too distant future.🙂

[@moshex99]

[@beaugendrewilliam3914]

Excellent super taf mec VW powaaa

[@Gyzaone]

Очень круто, спасибо за видео

[@imperialtekk9443]

I got a strong love for vw. Wish I still had mine. I've had both 99 jetta 1.8t and 03 gli vr6. The gli rode so smooth but was dog shit slow. I want another one.

[@Castigo-jg4di]
