Good old Edd, he made Wheeler Dealers

[@garragol1]

Just the best!!!

[@larryhullinger8103]

Not taking anything away from Ant but i like Ed better Love the show just the same

[@richardwoolley7854]

Here here!!

[@MrSteve280]

Edd is the man. Mechanical skills, teaching skills, credibility and personality second to none. One of the most iconic "jump-the-shark" moments on TV when he left the show. Threw out the baby, kept the dirty bathwater.

[@wrightharris4365]

Edd you are undoubtedly the most talented man in the business! When you left the WD show my wife and I stoped watching. YOU were the reason to watch. You continually amazed with your skills in all phases of repair. We wish you nothing but the best and just know that you are sorely missed.🥺

[@sunilphalakdhari3869]

Yes me as well. Edd is absolutely amazing. And explains each step. WD definitely was a success because of Edd. Without him, it's just like any other restoration video

[@monsterkxf]

Ed was the show!! 🤘🤘

[@tony5oos]

Edds ability to deliver information on any aspect of vehicle engineering is a true skill he encapsulates British engineering and what we would expect from a master mechanic. These are the traits that have inspired the dreams of the apprentice to the skilled inventor and in the past made British engineering truly the best

[@daverome8855]

That welding repair on the hole really is a top job! Love how much time and effort Ed put into getting it perfect

[@bava67]

But how did the welds disappear after he sprayed primer over it?

[@MagicAyrtonforever]

@@bava67 He ground them smooth, I'd be more concerned about beneath the repair.. Needs coating from below too

[@troythegardener]

@@bava67 illuminati confirmed

[@tospicy4ya]

I’m wanting to paint the front end of my vw bus any how to videos on this? Have a look on Instagram. Henrietta_vw

[@kencarse3677]

Rough welding after grinding then after magical primer it’s all smooth. He didn’t think of cleaning the general area first?

[@LAP1050]

When Ed and Mike parted ways WD went down the tube. I also believe moving the show to the US is the beginning of the end for WD. Ed and the UK based show was more entertaining. My ten cents...

[@izoyt]

this is what happens, when bbc is bought by amazon..

[@mattivirta]

ed has BEST and mike only shit motor mouth what speak lot only shit.

[@dtcov]

I don’t agree WD better now without Ed ( d.i.yer at best ) my opinion

[@sparky4878]

David Tompkins too many people hate on Ant, simply because he’s not Edd, without knowing Ant’s background and just how well respected he is in the classic car world.

[@dosvidanyagaming4123]

@@sparky4878 we don't hate him but rather hate how he's the most obvious clue to the Americanisation of our beloved, very British, motor show

[@Nog311]

Should make a show with Edd and the Fuzz from Car SOS.

[@matthewbanta3240]

The Karmann Ghia is pretty, and it is cool that the body is all one piece without seems between panels. But if I had one I would be paranoid about denting the body panel and not being able to fix it by just replacing a section.I guess I would prefer a bus or a standard beetle if I were to go air cool VW.

[@johnhender]

I can watch Edd all day long !

[@hughnelmes864]

Edd's terrific. His tips and money saving ideas are the best no b/s.

[@giancarlofoglia8145]

Fantastic job great work Edd.

[@5150mxVW]

Nice work Edd, sweet KG !

[@sunnynahal1198]

he was and is a legend!

[@markiep5]

No edd no wheeler dealers simple. Not even wanted to watch a new one without him. Just keep watching the old ones classics.

[@mattivirta]

WD has big shit whitout ED, mike have only motor mouth what speak shit. no have good newer. i no looking any serie were mike have, but if have ED i looking and like lot.

[@zfloz9895]

Even if I wanted, I can't, it is to fake now.

[@andyhello23]

Same here

[@joevald3]

Ed deserves a show of his own.................

[@robertpryor7225]

Wheeler dealer, drop the s, no copyright infringement

[@sparky4878]

He tried a show that’s on KZbin but I don’t think it beyond the pilot.

[@Yosemite_Sam]

Great job as always

[@andrepattin7360]

EDD super mécano bonnes explications , il explique aussi toujours pour la sécurité , et surtout la bonne camaraderie entre eux

[@joevald3]

Ed was an interesting guy . A mechanic you all would like to know

[@kavanghia6908]

Working on my 69 ghia that I saved from the crusher. Have a lot of work ahead of me. Hope to see you on the road!

[@mastersteel1079]

Edd the king of engineering😉😉😉😉🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@robertpryor7225]

If engineering is a monarchy

[@gustavopadilla9176]

Good work buddy

[@danaugustlolliaugustllolli4728]

Sou Brasileiro e grande admirador do seu trabalho

[@dinaestrela8636]

Também admiro o trabalho dele

[@branon6565]

I wish they were able to find a VW Notchback during Edd's time on the show...🤷🏻‍♂️ but oh well....with this Ghia, they maybe should've or could've installed a front disc brake conversion kit, lowered the entire car 2 or more inches, used chromed 914 wheels at every corner, and mated a pumped up, dual port heads, dual carbs 1776 or 1835 "pancake" motor to a Rino 5spd trans....leave the interior completely stock, super clean and bone stock....

[@nickforsyth2153]

Unbelievable work on that weld job. Looks perfect. Just wished he sprayed the rest instead of having a new gleaming paint job to a small part of the bay

[@bettyshallcross4547]

He said he was going to have the paint shop pretty it up.

[@MelanieJENSEN]

Oh man, My favorite Babe ❤️

[@tims8603]

Edd said that the reason he quit was because he didn't like the changes the producers made but I think it was because he, or maybe his wife, didn't want to move to America. I miss Edd. Ant is good at what he does but Edd brought a certain quirkiness to the show.

[@groermaik]

Go Edd, go...no...come back. Bring Edd back to WD.

[@zfloz9895]

Yeaaaa !!!

[@alext9067]

Great looking car and totally seamless front fender unit. How did they do that? Very slick. $10,450 doesn't seem bad for a classic that Edd worked on. Been in a showroom lately?

[@bettyshallcross4547]

Old school coach building. Welded up in one unit, with seams leaded in.

[@benignorios2069]

.

[@MWSRD]

ok no one saying it WHY, WHY NOW? he's gone this feels like click bait because rating will be down? love Edd and mike has grown on me over the years as well

[@TheJuip]

we want Ed back

[@johnsaikaly]

I have a 1969 Carmen Ghia, but it’s an automatic have you seen those before?

[@robertpryor7225]

Ed is a giant among normal height men!

[@johnsaikaly]

I have a 1969 Karma Ghia automatic I hear that they are not very common. What do you think?

[@2steelshells]

Ed is best.

[@tommallon4052]

If the battery tray is still there, then the rest of the car should be solid.

[@tranluong7488]

Đúng rồi đầu lá cánh tì sát khung lồng nên lực cản ảnh hưởng gần như = 0 nên không cần mài vuốt giúp giữ được kết cấu.

[@zfloz9895]

Edd, Edd, Edd, come back Edd !!!

[@tonybrito507]

Hi saludos desde México Ojalá tus videos se puedan traducir al Español Entiendo poco inglés Y son de mucho interés Restaure con herramientas muy básicas mi caribe 85 blanca A un vecino le gustó y sin lograr terminarla por completo me la compro ... Así he hecho un poco de dinero en la Restauración de autos viejitos o antiguos ... Gracias...

[@jfk64kennedy95]

patching that hole, I would have seen if a junk yard would provide the sheet metal from that area and then cut the patch out of that, depending on cost of course

[@lecinquiemeroimage]

Subtitles, please. Thanks a lot.

[@robertpryor7225]

And translation to American English

[@mathewhyland8452]

I really miss Ed China

[@simonlloyd7557]

the one thing i love about Mike is that he is so easy to hate.

[@Darkwell0071]

I could buy a car from Edd but never from mike

[@zfloz9895]

That mike, is so annoying. :(

[@juancarlospalavecino7316]

Mo puedo verlos está en ingles habló sólo español

[@Nog311]

Is Ed back now?

[@robertpryor7225]

Yes, in our dreams

[@nikiforospetrakis2260]

Hi in the total repair cost you never add the cost of working hours of the mechanic.Why?

[@Colin-Fenix]

“It always alarms me when people paint black over body colour” he says, after he paints the engine compartment black instead of red.

[@mattivirta]

like but no have text cripts i no understand anythink, shit. before i looking ALL wheeler dealers and programs were edd have. best guy.

[@russellmancillas4464]

Never paint the engine compartment any color than the original, people will assume there is rust

[@GarageItYourself]

Yea, this would probably cost more like £2000 these days to make the engine bay look pretty. Oh how prices have gone through the roof in recent years 😳

[@mitchd949]

Ed makes a nice metal patch in the front storage area, but then doesn't take 30 seconds to mask off or cover the washer tube?! He also mentions having the car going to the paint shop for the red-touch ups but uses rattle can satin black in the engine compartment? Penny wise and pound foolish would seem to be the appropriate description of such work.

[@kasamago]

American Garage

[@mattivirta]

has shit, wheeler dealer has lot lot better tv program because has ed, whitout ed no have good anythink.

[@bettyshallcross4547]

Probably a 67. The taillights and turn signals changed after that.

[@DavidMadeira29]

"I never liked it, quite a smashed version of the Porsche 928, but I can't say that I never heard of it... Little red Corvette, anyone?!" 🗨😉🍊

[@bettyshallcross4547]

Much earlier idea than the 928. Styling actually came from a Chrysler concept car.

I just think he should comb his damn hair

Good job ruining one of the best shows around. We miss you Edd.

I like the end click here to subscribe to the new show without Ed ya real tasteful.

[@cbrondi]

This man is a mechanical artist, since his departure I no longer watch the show. Quan Ed wanted to leave the show for a very specific reason, his partner Mike did not support him. Disappointing, if he would have supported and well we would always have Ed ...This man is a mechanical artist, since his departure I no longer watch the show.

[@alexhuevera939]

unrealistic numbers.

[@anandarochisha]

Mike (all about the $), is here selling Ed ..because He failed as a Human and now can't sell himself.

[@dontpanicblink]

i hate the way mike drove the cars he rams the brakes on and turns the ignition off at the same time , he showed no consideration for the cars when he drives them to the garage even slams the doors most of the time

[@GoNutsButch]

No, I'm not subscribing WITHOUT Ed . . . sadly I don't watch your show anymore Mike. The new guy is nothing but an actor and very corny

[@zfloz9895]

Clearly !

[@3DPeter]

Why do people don't understand that WD is a tv show where mike is buying the cars and parts and Ed fixes the cars? It's not reality tv, so Mike is not a garage owner and Ed isn't his employee! It's a tv show and the format is buying, fixing and sell on cars, that's it! And i like Ed but he got more grumpier every episode, because in the beginning Ed was always excited when Mike brought a new car to fix, but later Ed was always grumpy and a bit pissed off, so he got cocky alright. And then the producers of the show desided that they didn't want to go into the details that much, because it takes a large crew of cameramen and so on, so alot of cost and they just wanted to cut the cost so ED got payed the same but less airtime. Well, when i would be Ed, then i wouldn't give a damn as long they keep on paying me the same money, but that wasn't good enough for good old Ed, so he thought that he could better and thought that he would get his own show. Well, that turned out not as expected, so here he is, the next youtuber that makes a few bucks from youtube, but no more tv work for Ed, so he sure made a big mistake by thinking that he's a big star that could get a job everywhere!
