Full Tour of the VINwiki Studio!

[@dannydillon997]

8:50 in the bikes and beards guy is awesome, he's super good people.

[@TheBrokenLife]

10:40 "The Michelin Man" has a name: Bib, which is short for Bibendum, which comes from a time when Michelin's slogan was "Nunc est bibendum" (roughly: It's a good time to drink!). Bib was often shown with a snifter of screws, nails, and bolts while also frequently smoking a cigar. The idea being to advertise that Michelin tires were more puncture resistant than their competitors, which was quite true at the time. Michelin has since freed Bib of his vices. They also no longer associate drinking with driving (although they do still reimburse for up to 2 drinks with dinner).😂

[@Bliggity]

If you go to the back door of the warehouse the vinwiki sticker is still there.

[@EdBolian]

Amazing. After they tried to jack up my rent due to the "demand!"

[@TheBrokenLife]

@@EdBolian...may they have heard something about a giant man bathing himself in a mop sink? 😂

[@acrvids]

I went there a couple of years ago and saw it. Even though nobody/nothing was there and I couldn't go inside, I was pleased to have the opportunity to drive down that back alleyway.

[@merickstad]

@@EdBoliantypical landlord stuff 🤣

[@VINwiki]

The answers you've been waiting for!

[@stuntchickentv]

hello small creator here, but I put up your other channel on Heartbeat I can not links here, You are on the home page. I want to talk to you? Heartbeat is the next youtube 2.0

[@wisdomSP]

Except, will there be another Car Trek?

[@MaxSpeedMike]

Always thought it was in the actual garage. What a cool set! Thanks for shaing

[@EdBolian]

It was for a long time, how we have air conditioning!

[@CannonballCC]

I assure you if you ever get bored, that Pro Laser 2 is in excellent working condition when I got it from CHP!

[@flyphoenix-250]

been a fan for around 6 years, its great to see all of the changes over the years and the growth you have had! Congrats on the success of vinwiki hitting 2mil and i hope to meet you one day!

[@JonesNate]

I kinda wish y'all had turned up the lights for this; everything is pretty dark. 😅

[@spyingbigfoot1181]

Awesome, thx for the bts

[@EDV8ZR1]

Well this is a nice look on the other side of the camera. 📽🎬 👍👍

[@ImARealHumanPerson]

We need you and both John's to appraise the vinwiki studio 😅

[@chriswear6496]

Ed, Will there be any more Car Trek episodes? Haven't seen one in a long time.

[@EdBolian]

Working on the other two. We'll see.

[@EDV8ZR1]

Please convince Freddy and Tyler. 🏆

[@ashp5406]

It's understandable, Unfortunately Freddie and Tyler both went through person issues lately. Hoping the best for all of you...

[@geoffhurley8103]

I wanted to see this. I wondered if it was a virtual background. Love your videos!

[@MrInfinity418]

I use soft box lighting at my work. Neewer sells wall mounting boom arms. Those with Velcro straps has cleaned up my space and made it much easier to move around

[@Skottink]

Wow you got Brock's cannonball jacket!!! You have officially made it! Seriously how amazing Iv loved Brock since I was a kid in the 80s an he was a very cool man. Take care Ed.

[@zresurrectedwon]

Love the set tour! I would love to see it in person one day 😎

[@MrCarGuy]

I also found one of the Compaq LTE models used for the F1. Was forgotten in a man's basement who recently passed away. Makes a good conversation piece.

[@AusAviation149]

As an Australian, got very excited to see the "Holden" number plate! Love hearing Travis Holden/Chevy SS stories on Vinwiki

[@hemi398]

Thanks

[@rcullan]

This was awesome thank you

[@ksteak27]

And here I always figured your storytellers were talking to you behind the camera!!!

[@TheTommyCraft]

IT is so cool seeing all of the different items and hearing the background to them all. Though I am still curious about the rest of the studio and what all is behind the camera.

[@AutoRevLife]

Seeing Ed have stuff lying around on the floor, in an organized mess, names me feel less bad about doing it with my workspace. 😂

[@ngtflyer]

I love this. I'm not one who asked, but I've always secretly wanted to see the set. Some of the stories behind various car parts are quite entertaining, especially when told in the way only you can tell them!

[@teddyboragina6437]

nice PEI plate, lived there growing up

[@S2NAZ]

I bought one of the Blue Cannonball shirts from you a couple months back cause it was similar to the jacket and of course the logo. Love it ❤

[@thebrassmonkey100]

Thanks for the update, which Lambo is the most "roadworthy" at the moment, at least to "Ed's" standards?

[@EdBolian]

They all have their needs but any of them could drive a long way today.

[@mikeroeder]

I miss seeing the "The Last Open Road" sticker.

[@AZACKAL]

Honestly im shocked its a real place. I figured it was like a green screen with the usual vinkiki studio background put behind people who sent you a recording of them telling theyre story.

[@theorickmann6715]

ive been waiting for this for years

[@jongib6096]

… when can i move in

[@kellyscars]

The one thing you didn't mention was the one thing I wondered about... The Lacoste Alligator neon lamp. What's up with that?!

[@EdBolian]

It was a gift from my grandfather as a kid. Never had much use for it until we were looking for some extra lighting for the background 7 years ago!

[@streather]

who would have thought the Vinwiki set contains so many random parts for the LP640.

[@FVPS904]

The lighting on those early videos was rough, so much better today

[@stephenhunt1662]

So it was John Temerian who blew up your Lambo when you had the rental fleet. I guess he eventually made things right.

[@bigshark1270]

So what about the Crocodile Neon sign?

[@AnomalousOne1401]

Ed, The set is fine like it is. I wouldnt change a thing. Do you ever stop to reflect on the memories of all the people who sat in the Big Chair over the years and the stories they shared? #GodIsLove

[@joeeyman7503]

Ed, make a puzzle of a picture of the VinWiki set. That would be cool . Then label your favorite pieces. 🙏❤️😎🤙🚗💨

[@ZackMuffinMan]

Nice!!

[@tedfort1698]

What about Michelin tires makes a diff explode?

[@EdBolian]

Even though they are numerically the same size, they have very different rolling circumferences.

[@ashp5406]

Hold on to that laptop Ed..

[@CarlosGomez-y9g]

May have some info f1 mclaren for u

[@tripprogers4814]

Ed has negative camber. Negative camber.. good.

[@markroderick3300]

You just changed the set because you are not good at putting things back exactly how and where you picked them up from. case in point the El chapo plate you flipped it over so now the CPJ shows instead of the P440

[@itachi1145]

They have had emulators for those computers at lest since 2017. You don't need that computer to fix a mclaren f1 anymore.

[@JakeSoulFreeTravels]

FYI, don't let a child film you....or maybe, let a child do the camera work because this person doesn't have the skills...🤢

[@hankhank3129]

"OA5599" Where's the fanfare for that car movie?
