I Showed My Flooded $2,000,000 McLaren P1 To The Only Other Person Dumb Enough To Try To Rebuild It

[@MatArmstrongbmx]

This year is going to be crazy for the P1! I need to build something fast enough to keep up 😅

[@RyanTheproblemchild]

Are you keeping the Lakers hat in Freddie's storage when you fly back or are you just amazing at remembering to bring it along?

[@neubianx]

Your hair is safe.

[@al69i-a4]

Try to build a Bugatti😂😂😂

[@trumpstinyhands]

Mat I’ve got a 2008 Volvo v50d , 190k but full new clutch . Not sure exactly how fast it is but i blew the doors off my daughters 1.2 ford ka. I may be open to offers 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jonathankubiak5496]

Would be fantastic to see you two guys do a build together as Freddy suggested. Monday ooooh baby😮

Amber Red is beautiful I love seeing Matt Armstrong hanging out with you. You're doing a great job on the P1 Freddy.

Maan watching him geek out like that with Matt, its just amazing, I love how you can see and hear his appreciation of being able to present his work to a peer who actually understands

[@MaDMaXGroW]

Best two car restore youtubers around. Big love to you both. Wish you all the luck and success.

[@KyleJWest-vn9kn]

I’ve commented this on other videos but it’s worth repeating, the work being done on that wiring harness is enough to stop 99% of people from finishing this project. If you are able to get this thing wired up and working correctly it will be a minor miracle.

[@MrArchie800]

I think you’re underestimating that number, I’d say 99.99999%

[@lincolnmarklt]

Matt is by far the best car KZbinr now. Most consistent. Best attitude. Just a really good guy. Easy to tell.

[@Dadeets]

Admired and revered so much by you, you can’t be arsed getting his name right (as Mat👈🏻 spells it himself 🤦‍♂️)

[@goodrobot1]

He does seem like a genuinely great guy. It's refreshing on KZbin. They don't always stand out here.

[@MavidG]

@@DadeetsWho cares, he sucks anyways.

[@tetreaulthank4068]

Exactly ! This the beauty of Matt, Matt is just a great person and one who comes across as a normal “Bloke” not someone who’s not approachable nor is he stuck up. Plus as a huge bonus 👍🏻👍🏻 Matt even has one of the greatest fathers in the world and on uTube

[@TotallyNotTurf]

My father always said the most beautiful quality in a person is his humbleness... These two guys are the embodiment of what being humble is supposed to be

[@demonentertainmentairsoft4198]

I would love to see a joint project between these guys.

[@trumpstinyhands]

I asked mat about this on his page when he took his rs4 to Freddies garage. I got a like and a “watch this space “ kind of reply I can’t remember the exact words but it was a big hint

[@lincolnmarklt]

They've done a ton of work together but Freddy is too lazy to film anything

[@maniackyjr]

Put up the money for the Zonda

[@JBlades88WV]

They did with the gt3

[@itisjustacomment]

They did the gt3rs together of sorts.

[@herrmp5sd]

You and Mat are a match made in heaven...❤

[@deancwhmackinnon6547]

Well said Mat. Opinions are like bum holes..........everyone has one! Some are just sh@t...............others are gold. The thing is this, Freddie and you Mat are doing things that 99% of us cannot do, and we have great enjoyment from all your productions.

[@GhostTrader37]

I agree. But if you're going to post online you're going to have to accept not everyone is the same. Also if they don't like opinions they are posting in the wrong place lol

[@PWNricky]

Anyone with comprehensive understanding of the ability to build this P1 will realize it’s literally trash and the easy way out, you can buy a r8!from sheepy for 300k faster this this pos it’s hilarious lol

[@GhostTrader37]

@PWNricky can you explain to me what is easy about rebuilding this car? You do realise nobody has done this before? You do realise the engine internals are now uprated? Oh and yes iam an ex race mechanic. There is nothing simple about building this car. People get lost with pinouts on connectors etc. That is the easiest part lol

[@PedigreeMongrel]

He could keep all the hybrid busy bodies happy just stick a nice big Nos kit on it and rig that hybrid boost button to it problem solved with extra torque it would be rude not too😂

[@TheOmegaRiddler]

What you said discredits the work that they have done because Mat Armstrong's channel shows that anyone can do this if they put in the time and hard work. He started doing this in the car park of the restaurant he worked at and then in the driveway at his home. 99% of us can't rebuild a P1 McLaren because we can't afford it. But it doesn't mean we can't rebuild a car on our free time. It doesn't have to be an exotic car, it just has to be one we want.

[@desertsandfly2277]

Yes please! Please let Misha drive your McLaren P1 Evo across the nurburgring once it's done. It would be so awesome to see how this car would perform on track and around corners. Not to mention that we could finally get actual footage of a McLaren P1 driving through the nurburgring.

[@canyonaro]

He should try to get Lars Kern (Porsche factory driver) to do it.

[@davereeves1967]

Not that I wouldn't trust Mischa, but I'd legit be terrified to the point I'd probably have a heart attack AND a stronk at the same damn time the moment he left my eyesight knowing he's full-sending my hand-built salvage bespoke P1.

[@sickjohnson]

Freddy said it...and he is not the kind of guy to not follow through! It's gonna be frigging awesome.

[@tarmac1697]

@@davereeves1967Yes mate a big stronk is a terrible thing, and can take years to recover from

[@IamDude2]

It’ll be slower on track than a standard real P1

[@braddersbradbeer6923]

Freddy this project is your best yet on a technical side. If you get the car over to the UK then if Ben Collins is to drive it would bloody massive if the car could be driven on the Top gear track with the Stig 🤯🤯🤯

[@interstateboss5921]

If Mat is the same person off the camera he's gotta be one of the best kind of friends to have around you. That energy is everything.

[@obsanity]

I started my journey into learning about cars this year on KZbin. I now know more in two months than I knew my entire life before, by watching Freddy's builds first and then I discovered Mat's channel as well. Finding out both of you are good friends and help one another out just makes my day! I feel very inspired to try my hand at rebuilding a dream car of mine some day in the future thanks to both of you, and your crews.

[@gersonguimaraes9860]

Check out Chris fix as well with very comprehensive and easy to follow tutorials. Not to mention he mostly only uses common hand tools and works on his driveway

[@Trystan46]

Both extremely hard working individuals, for them to get where they are today it’s nice to see them supporting each other!!! Well done guys ! And to your team as well 👍❤

[@WilliamBurdine]

Love how Matt's dad just sneaks in the background and walks like he is Sasquatch wondering if he is being filmed and in focus. LOL

[@stevengunter3457]

you 2 are so fun to watch together. it fun to see matt just hanging out and u taking a small break.

[@willforster]

This was a great video. Two people who clearly know their stuff, sharing their experiences and learning from each other. Thanks for sharing.

​@mrguss96467 he makes more on these P1 videos than you do in a year bro, sit down 😂 not to mention I'm sure he's got investments, he definitely sells the hell out of merchandise too.

[@larryhartleben8369]

This was like a great meal with the perfect wine. I was praying Freddie and Mat would hook us up with a video while he was slumming in the US, If either of you guys wants to make it to Oregon, you can use my M3 for a runaround. Cheers and Thanks

[@jamesbarber5410]

I’m not going to lie. I don’t even care what car you two are working on. You are my two favorite cartubers and the fact that you’re friends and work together as much as you do is amazing. You guys give me inspiration when I start thinking about my own projects.

[@daveryandirect]

I absolutely love Freddie! Him and Mat are probably the most relatable people on KZbin. Fred though has such a generous attitude. I’d love to go for a beer and chat nonsense about cars. I’m so sad he’s had a shite year. I’m sorry this has happened to such a nice chap. But I see great things in the future for him. 👍🏻

[@jordanjayd]

How has he had a shit year?

[@ElvisEg2]

Hey Freddy, Don't feel stressed to deliver content just as frequently as you did before. This project is on a whole different level than any other build out there and i feel that people have to high expectations of content every week, being spoiled before. You are doing a great job, nice seeing you and Mat in the same vid, both of you are VIPs of this car genre of youtube!

[@CeltSfodster]

I’m excited to see more collabs and the new content from Matt when he finally pulls the plug and moves out to the US.

[@svenngunnarrustgard1228]

Doubt he would leave his family and friends behind

[@treeless62]

As a retired heavy equipment mechanic, from mining, we would sometimes have to completely rewire a motor grader or excavator etc, we had schematics and we used Deutsch connector kit. You could even use Tyko toy manufacturer wiring connector kits. Superior to anything on a McClaren or otherwise. Just a suggestion

[@HotelBravoWhiskey]

Like here for the Zonda project!

[@Tomberculosis-q1i]

Im guessing wiring hasnt gone anywhere near as well as they wanted. Would explain why it took so long to get an update. I do wish he was a bit more transparent about it tho.

You let him use your UNIT for his project? And they you showed him your P1???? .

Episodes in which you rebuild cars with such grace and experience, in which you have so brilliantly perfected, are better and better with each episode. I eagerly await each new episode, what will it bring, what course of action will you choose, what new obstacle will arise, it's simply like watching a detective story with a happy ending. Both of you are great at your job and you have admirers all over the world. Just don't stop doing what you enjoy, or we, the viewers, would lose one of the few things we love. ​

You think you won't build something this crazy ever again? Dude, you are hooked, and all the bad times will be forgotten once you finished it up and been driving it for a while. Besides that, it would be a bummer to see it end there, you are such a chad with these projects, doing everything right, and it have inspired me greatly.

[@Northman85]

I think a challenge or joint build be cool for you both, so like either both pick same car wrecks and restore them then race/compare at the end to see who done it best for fun of course. Or a joint buld would be cool on something. Both of you do solid/great content keep it up 👏👏

[@NEEEBODY]

I remember re-making the wiring loom on my 1977 MK1 Granda (UK Granada, not the boxy US one 😅) That was a challenge in itself, and that must have been no more than about 50 wires in total!! Had 2 left hand drive looms and a damaged RHD one and it sat on the garage floor for 2 weeks.... Mind you, when it was complete and back in the car, everything worked 1st time. Mat would have lost his hair on that one!! ^ years later and it's all still running perfectly!

I like the direction of the P1. People that complain about the removal of the EVO unit dont understand racing. You fight three things to achieve high speed. Power, Weight , Aerodynamics. If you can replace the battery with more engine power and remove weight in the process you will certainly be faster than the original car. You're doing great. Keep the videos coming.

[@dalecomber7225]

You two are brilliant together. I love @2varish in the USA been an early follower to the channel. Same with Matt. Keep it going chaps. For me this wipes out every single channel on you tube. You 2 combined will conquer the world on KZbin salvage builds. 🎉🎉🎉

15 minute mark, Mat and Fredy are discussing the accumuler system for the suspension, etc. CAT Haul Trucks, again mining, have been using accumulaters for decades now. It is for the steering in a piece of equipment that weighs 256 tons empty and yet you can drive it with one finger.

[@tetreaulthank4068]

Don’t know nor do I care what anyone out there who feels they should criticize what decisions Freddy or Matt are making with any of their builds, they are all taking huge financial risks with them and not only that just imagine the learning curve involved in each vehicle alone.
