Longer is always better! And prayers to you for making that kids day! You could see it in his eyes!

[@paulh1745]

Yes, sirree, and he made sure everybody saw it. Most people do things like that in a very low profile way for the personal experience of gifting, someone less fortunate, but that’s not how Craig rolls.

[@renrut1613]

Your an amazing guy Craig thanks for taking the time to talk to the young man. He won’t ever forget it. Your a great guy!!!!

[@burtmcgurt3584]

Heck yeah!!

[@superczech69]

Thanks for being a good human. Your stock just went up a little today.

[@paulh1745]

Don’t misunderstand, it was all for show, it was all four likes, and it was all to generate more money on KZbin, because that’s the only thing Craig cares about, the almighty, dollar.

[@Bigdog78901]

@@paulh1745 wow must be hard being that miserable all the time. Seek help life can be better when you let go of the hatred of others who are doing better than you

[@neilgunns8391]

Very cynical Paul. This is coming from a very cynical person myself.

[@paulh1745]

@@neilgunns8391 I have watched this channel since he had about 135 subscribers. I know who he is. I know how he thinks. I know how disingenuous he is. I know how money hungry he is.

[@Joelcameronbrown]

Paul what a wicked thing to say

[@TheBBodyBuilder]

No issues with longer as long as things are moving along and it’s not full of recaps or repetitive comments. You sure made that young man’s day! Good on ya!

[@Blakeyblake06]

i agree with @TheBBodyBuilder something like 30-45min for something special I'm good with keep it up craig

[@davidgraf01]

Yea, as long as it's a special car like this one. Hopefully I'm speaking of everybody. I don't want a 45 minute video about a Tahoe.

[@davebarbieri1380]

I would even take a 45 min video about a Tahoe as long as it would be packed with useful information, which they always are. Keep it up Craig!

[@jdub264]

Thank you for being that stellar young man’s hero for the day! He looked at home in that Hummer. Love the how-to videos, inspiring me to detail my wife’s car.

[@robertbell387]

Longer or shorter, it doesn't matter. The videos are almost always great to watch. I always find it interesting to watch the how-to videos. something like restoring the headlight with sandpaper ad then the two different solutions was really insightful. I remember when this channel only had like 30k subscribers. It's amazing how fast it grew.

[@alansoler2653]

Bro, that was so awesome what you did for that kid!! Mad props from NYC!

[@inspirationalphotography2656]

awesome car but the true person you are came out with the young man that stopped by . Thank you for being a great man.

[@FlyingWheels]

I appreciate that

[@goleafsgo8496]

Gen 1 Vipers (no disrespect Craig) are somewhat museum pieces. They are so raw you really do need to know what you are doing or else death is a real possibility. They are absolute, pure raw power with no nannys to look after you. Maintenance and repair costs if you want to drive it are absolutely insane. Comfort was never a consideration when Dodge designed and built the original Gen 1 Viper. A later Viper is a far nicer car (IMO) and it actually has side windows .... imagine that? 😂

[@AREA_RC-51]

Craig... just spent $100 bucks on macaroons because of this video... heart warming to see how you treat the fans... keep up the good work!

[@shilokominarek1884]

My car body company redid my headlights and looks like the clear coated them and so far they still look good 5 years later

[@AndrewImmordino]

I am not one to comment Craig, but shout out to having the fan on the ep. Class act

[@48Boxer]

I love the unusual color vipers. I have a gray 2000 with the Connolly leather. As for the headlights it's quicker, easier and lasts longer to sand with 400-600 grit then clearcoat

[@disposabledad]

wow that's crazy you have one 👌👍

[@ramza78]

I think the 20 minute mark is good. I’m gonna be honest, I tend to get bored on longer videos and go trigger happy with the skip 30 seconds ahead!! That viper is looking way better already!!

[@darwinbennett1783]

man i love your channel. you are so down to earth. i never miss an eposide either

[@GT-fy1mr]

Long or short don't matter to me, the vids are good. Really cool what you did for that kid 👍🏽

[@rodmarquez66]

No issue with longer videos 30-35 minutes. Not a fan of Dodge vehicles, I enjoyed watching the transformation of this car. Can't wait to see more from this car.

[@itsnotme07]

I enjoy longer videos as long as the content is cool. Love the color on that 95 Viper!! Sadly, it was "shared" across the platforms at Chrysler back then....almost bought a 1997 Chrysler Sebring Convertible in that color back in 1998...but the car had too many issues, and bought a different one on the lot. Very cool your son is getting into cars too....of course, wants to be like his Dad.

[@paulh1745]

Yes, that’s very unfortunate.

[@fordtorino594]

Craig, great video. I am so proud of you. I think Ian was very happy to be included and he did a great job. Ian you made me smile, love your sense of humor and Craig did get your “good side”. Great content and great people. Love you, Dad

[@ExplorerBen7]

That would be cool if your son does a series flipping bikes or whatever he can find to his first car.

[@user-hg4rf3nd1w]

Thank you! Your content is so interesting, presented in a superb, conversational format, to combine automotive history, with insights on a business model worthy of study by students of the most acclained business schools, but shared with all

[@srtmetal7647]

Both Michelin and pirelli make a tire that fits.

[@kneedeepinit]

This may be my favorite video you have made, very informative

[@MrMlbfan6]

Use a leave blower to dry the car the brush hurts the paint

[@JohnnyBfromPeoria]

Is it possible that Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 has the right sizes? 275/40-17 and 335/35-17 show as OE size for the 95 RT/10 and not cheap, but available.

[@605dronephotography]

Love the RT10 Nice video!

[@jackswift9009]

This full video that shows the whole process is awesome!!!

[@dustinwalker9468]

Would’ve definitely loved it as one video, either way nice find man!! Great content.

[@PenguinSlide47]

Looks great can’t wait for part 2

[@verboten911]

Perfect length. It makes you want to come back for more - Part 2

[@disposabledad]

Hey Craig I just want to let you know I love your videos I love your enthusiasm and I love your positive energy. In a difficult world that we live in right now it's a breath of fresh air to find people like yourself to watch and cheer for the old capitalist way of doing things. ❤

[@LatersOnTheMenjay.]

Great episode Craig. Ian was hilarious and looked like he had a great time on the show.

[@shadowlord5574]

Can't wait to see it finished

[@aaronbritt2025]

One thing with restoring headlights... When you sand and polish them, you're removing the old oxidized protective coating. You need to spray them with clear coat and then wet sand and polish. If you don't, the UV with bake the unprotected plastic and it'll be cloudy again in less than a year. If the goal is to make it good enough to sell, I guess clearing isn't necessary. If you want to do it the right way, and make the headlights last, clear coat them.

[@bebin73]

100% correct.

[@ssom7291ify]

Your videos are so good the longer the better. Thanks

[@VanisleNSX]

Looking forward to part 2!

[@bladesofglorylawnmaintenan6354]

Yes please longer videos!! Stay blessed!!

[@downundertruckerusa4733]

Good for you mate, kindness rocks

Lookin forward to the finished product!

I don’t mind longer videos and on a side note I love your videos!! I am not an old subscriber but so far I love all of your content and I really can’t wait until the next video thank you sir for your channel!!!!

Definitely prefer the long videos Craig ,love seeing these on the road

[@neilgunns8391]

I’m actually looking for one, but a little newer…. And definitely not green. 😆

[@bc8683]

Made that young man’s day. Way to go

[@hamishcruden7623]

Great video, interesting watching the light work with the sandpaper... I prefer 15 to 20 min videos... then another part 2 of same length... this means I can watch them on a break etc.... Thanks for the content!

[@peterstoop4718]

No problem with longer video's :) and Kudo's for being a true and wonderfull human being.

Hi Ian! Great appearance!

[@rc70ys]

These are the videos we loyal viewers enjoy seeing Buy fix clean sell I’m in favour of long videos.

[@scottbellisle5581]

Hey Craig, Love your cars and yes long videos are good.

[@GroundedFlyboy737]

The Viper is incredible. Simple and mean. However, the "top" looks Iike I made it out of some old vinyl I found in the dumpster with my Mom's sewing machine. You're a good man, Craig, you truly made that kid's day!

[@brrt1982]

Hi Ian! Great idea to pop up!

[@fagerlivegen9]

Will love longer videoes :-) Greetings from Norway

[@marksantos2276]

Longer ones are amazing. Maybe the entire one about cleaning and paint correcting, and the next about any mechanical repairs and the roof.

[@sonnyserrano5522]

Love the long videos

[@DmDetails]

Cool to see this thing come back to life!

[@darrenohairtneide1494]

Thanks for making that guys day. Made me happy :) so I’m sure it made him absolutely buzzing :)

[@micah8355]

Man, you're a good dude. Glad you got Ian's good side :D

[@MarathonGsar]

I enjoy the format, and a half hour or so flies by, so definitely no complaints from me. I still find it incredible that a major manufacturer brought the original Viper to the market. No nothings, just all car and the driver! How they got it past the corporate lawyers. There's a story!

[@minimeee04]

My Grandson has non verbal Autism so thank you for taking time with the young lad it was emotional...

[@WayApp]

Wow, what an incredible find!

The gen1 viper is my dream car. Has been since I had a blue/white hotwheels

This was a good video, not too long.

Craig a true gent made that kids day and a memory for life imagine when he see this video 👍

[@docock1149]

longer videos i watch these during my breakfast so 20 mins and up are perfect

[@luclucas135]

Was in for more !

[@RT10Viperman]

Dude I literally bought a 93 RT10 Viper (see profile pic) from a little old lady from Texas that had 1,600 miles on it...! What a car...! Good find...!

[@gilbertrodriguez3276]

Let's go much longer videos and part 2 the Suspense awaits thanks for the videos. Oh yeah what's the updates on all your audis with german we are all waiting for thoses updates and much more as well to.

[@joshuagardner908]

Ian is the man!!

[@bikeman1x11]

you need to spray those headlights with a 4k clearcoat or they will cloud up real quick!

[@muskokamike127]

The thing about long videos: you can play them at 1.25 speed OR fast forward over boring parts or pause and go back. Personally I hate when some youtubers stretch a video "theme" over 10 videos over 10 weeks with a whole bunch of fill to make each video longer.

[@garyquartley1084]

Would love a longer format sometimes Craig.Great video as always

[@dextersxxxxlab]

I also did my subaru headlights. But as far as I heard and did you need to add a new uv shielding layer on the headlight. In my case I used a 2 component clear coat to make it uv resistant. The car is always parked outside those headlights look great for two years now. If you do not spray this layer I believe they will start to yellow again very fast.

[@richardmorris6365]

Long videos are best. You're the best Craig. I don't get the early Vipers they were crude. Big ups on this vid bud ..

[@plascenxia21]

long videos is always best good job Sr.

[@ThaddeusCrump]

I like when the videos are around 25 minutes or so. If I'm pressed for time i'll check you out on TikTok to see what's coming up, and if I have time like I do today I just watch two or three videos. Awesome car, and great work so far! My dream car is the blue/white pinstripe 96' Viper GTS. I got to drive one once, and would LOVE to own that car. The Vipers you have stress me out with the whole reaching inside to open the doors.... Random thought and I don't know if it is plausible or not, BUT you "daily drove" the Hummer. Now do it with the green Viper. I've been watching long enough to know you would never do it with your red, but do it with the green for like a week. LOVE the channel.

[@petergraansma466]

7:48 I watched this 50 times. The kid is awesome ❤

[@jovanensslin6019]

Longer or Shorter, just keep up the good Content 👍

[@chrisgallagher3703]

Craig I have to say ( I know you know much better then me but) I used a Mcguire's headlight restoration kit on my wife's Lincoln and I have to say they came out Awesome and lasted about a year or so give or take...it took me about a hour if I remember correctly and everything I needed came right in the kit...just throwing it out there if you haven't tried....

[@danmiedzionoski6766]

Hey Craig, cool video...I like that Viper, it came out really good so far. I also noticed that Thunderbird you had in your yard, 1997??... my dad had one that he absolutely loved when I was young. He let me take it to my prom. What are your plans for it?? Also, I like your longer videos.

[@windronner1]

Killer find. Fantastic spec. I just never understood the soft-top, side curtains and door knob delete.

[@jaggsta]

Discount tire/Walmart carries 335/35/17 for first gen vipers.

[@muskokamike127]

no rod knock, good on you craigy!!!

[@TimFenton-dx4xe]

Nice colour 🎉🎉

[@Mutato-]

Longer, Hate when they are cut up and I might miss the part 2,

Second KZbinr I have seen buy one of these in as many days. Prices are gonna go up again.

[@canimaStyle]

[@rwright3395]

Nice car pretty color

[@antonczerwinske5910]

I love the colour of that viper

[@David-nx2vm]

Best way to preserve paint on your favorite car is not let anything touch it that isn’t absolutely necessary. Blow dry that red Viper with a purpose built car dryer or a shop vac with a reduction nozzle. Get water out of all nooks and crannies, side mirror housings, grille, etc. A good detail spray as a drying agent and a plush microfiber (not Costco yellows) will clean up any stray droplets. Silicone squeegees are okay for lot cars but not something you really care about..

[@DoYouLikeToastToo]

DOT dates on tires are 4 digits. It would be on the other side of the one you saw. The first 2 digits are the week of manufacturing (so 01-52), the last 2 digits are the year.

[@JJj-xratedgt]

Transitions are fluid so longer isn't a problem... Thx
