[@matarmstrongmk2]

Hey all! Sorry if I’ve confused some! This video is all of the Aston Martin build episodes from the main channel put into one huge video. We posted it on the 2nd channel just incase some people like to watch the full thing in just one episode 🙏❤️ back soon with more videos

[@Silver_unicorn]

Watched this full series twice 😂 love everything you have done !

[@imaner76]

+1 for the 3/4 hour history/recap.

Just finished the journey ... Damn, what a way to go back in time... 👌🏼

Prefer this stitched together format for completed builds. Now waiting for the GT3 full video. Great content!!

[@zoemcfadden4004]

[@ArcadeArron]

Honestly, I love this idea, putting all the episodes into one place for one long film. Top job 👏

[@ranmalgamage7067]

Agreed

[@todaysrealquote]

Yeah I like how his fried does the whole build in 1 long video. So this is Awesome!

[@westhamUTDPhilippines]

I'm the other way. Lots of smaller videos, I don't have time to sit for hrs and hrs and never get round to going back to watch a long video 😔

Been in the racing business for years . I honestly can say I know seriously qualified mechanics that would shy away from what you take on. “Hard work beats talent” is evidently occasionally rewarded. I am a huge FAN !!!!

[@kellybishop6451]

I’m an older lady, and I love this car! Even seeing it brought in by flatbed truck didn’t change my mind! My taste in cars hasn’t changed in all my years. Still love fast, and expensive ❤😂 My dream car will always be the “BUG”!! If you know cars you will know what I’m talking about 😊 I’m happy I found your channel because I love it too! Thank you for sharing this with us…

[@thenima]

It really is a beautiful car

[@carllamb6711]

Well, Mat this Has got to be the fastest 3 hours and 40 minutes of my life can’t believe how fast that time went…… and how much hard work has gone into this for us all and the editing the videography absolutely outstanding. I’ve spent all afternoon watching this getting earache off the Mrs…. worth it Mat Honestly you should do more like this. Thank you all

[@brianolley5947]

Although I’ve watched them all before that’s still the best 3hr 40 mins entertainment and feeling the highs and lows of you and the team. To all come down to that ending is enough for any car enthusiast to achieve what’s possible. Hard work and determination brilliant!!! Keep up the good work mate!!

[@BoominGame]

Forget the editing, what he does with those cars is crazy! They strip them back to nuts and bolts and put them back together, never see such a thing. It would probably not even be viable, or indeed too risky, if it wasn't for KZbin.

[@MrBigMalT]

Matt your boundless energy, enthusiasm and perseverance, even when tasks seem impossible, is an inspiration.

[@donshilo2024]

The fact that mat stays humble with his friend in his side is what keeps me watching. Cheers from Wisconsin USA!

[@nickahuho4827]

Matt is full of energy. Encounters and solves problems with a smile. Epic

[@TR_binarytradermada]

Ever since I came across your channel, I've been RELEGIOUSLY watching your videos day and day so please DO NOT END the content lol - I do not like the news, or anything negative - being good is the hardest thing and most hoomans are WEAK resort to being bad - and these videos ARE AWESOME, very motivating, entertaining, positive in its own way and a great pass time for me. from USA

I wish a had half the energy that Mat has. I love the enthousiasm, determination and of course the builds. Cheers Mat, enjoying every minute.

Dude. I’m 45yrs old. Been a “carguy” since maybe age 10 and turned my first wrench by age 14. I’m a nurse by profession but you inspire me so much! I randomly clicked on your video and fell asleep, woke up and saw you were tackling the dash and you’re not even a mechanic? Plus making the video is extremely impressive. Keep it up!! You give us hope 👍🏽

[@joan8mp]

Mat, you have done an absolutely incredible job in rebuilding your Aston Martin Vantage-well done! As a bloke old enough to be your Dad I took so much pleasure in watching this back to back film. You fully deserve to own such a classic car.The guts and determination that you have shown in completing this build are a fine example to the sometimes lost youth of today, in that if you try hard enough you can achieve your dreams. I now look forward to following your journey on future projects. Enjoy your pride and joy lad. JRD.

[@dcraexon]

It’s too bad they don’t paint those dashboard bolts to different color

[@Alex_Phoenix9]

​@@dcraexonDamn! Bloody bolts not painted. 😂

[@poppad1187]

100% agree

[@King_Bob_The_Third]

Your Aston Martin was / Is your best rebuild IMO. Not sure I would have taken the gamble but you pulled it off. And thank you for putting all the episodes together in one video, I REALLY enjoyed watching it. 🙂👍

[@thorzeens]

with all the cars i seen you rebuild i say your better mechanic than most

[@kawasakizx10rr-trackbikeco85]

This is one of the best videos ever. It's incredible what Mat and his team are able to do...the perseverance, patience, out-of-the-box solutions, and what a great attitude. Amazing !!!

Matt your a good person! Iam 68yrs old and my car broke down .I only get 750.00 a month disability . But I live vicariously thru your videos ! I'm an American and I've always loved cars like you. Cherish your loved ones whole you can and thanks for your cool videos❤

[@avt65]

Congratulations Mat and Hannah. You deserve every minute of joy with her.

[@BCyyGaming]

This is by far the most well put together video i’ve ever seen. i’ve sat here for over three hours !! beautiful job. the ending of the video was absolutely fantastic. unbelievable work man. you my friend are the definition of dedication. job well done.

[@ThomasGourley-ww1hk]

I watched the entire video all in one sitting, and was never bored, you are an true genius, thanks a lot Mat

[@alexashford2693]

Love idea of putting all the videos together of builds should definitely do this for all future builds as I cannot imagine coming to the channel as a new viewer not knowing where to start , so this makes it easy

Your channel has provided so many joyful moments, but Ahhh, memories, I have to say, the moment you finally got the Aston started I was nearly in tears. Awesome.

This is why I support right to repair. All manufacturers should be forced to provide schematics and ALL spare parts upon request.

Ive been working on cars since I was old enough to drive and fixing my own was a must.Ive done most everything that you can imagine,but that dash is absolutly beyond my capabillities .You are a very talented young man and my hats off to you.Rick.

[@timross6793]

You deserve far more than a youtube channel, you should have a proper tv series. Your editing, content and your presenting have full potential for an amazing future!

[@FasterThanJesus666]

100% but if he went on tv it would be the end as he would be forced to make everything overdramatic with nonsensical deadlines like needing to have a car fixed in 24 hours and crap like that

[@MulhollandIE]

Goes to show you're an older gentlemen. A tv series is awful in comparison to a youtube channel. You're asking him to basically give up over half of his revenue to the TV station... His KZbin video is way more proper and way more beneficial than a TV series would ever be.

[@imaner76]

If Mat was announced as the next Top Gear presenter... Even those who don't know of him would approve.

[@timross6793]

​@@MulhollandIEyou're spot on there to be honest mate. Keeping this on KZbin allows Matt to keep control of his content too. Ignore me, Matt! Keep this as it is, it's perfect!

[@Mr.Fedora007]

Agree. But reality is that Mat Armstrong is a TV series. Keeping it this way means MA is in control. Look what happened to Gas Monkey… the TV company made it impossible for the characters t work as they pulled the shots and then it was tv. MA just enjoys cars and he’s brilliant behind the camera and altogether a lovely young man. I’m a Physics teacher and I’ve incorporated some of his stuff into my lectures especially his passion and drive to solve issues and think outside the box! Keep going MA. There is one programme I th I he could work in and not interfere too much and that’s Top Gear if he had some angle that they had never thought of. But quite frankly he’s best on his own and also the network of other KZbinrs working together will put traditional tv shows out of the limelight.

[@stream34]

Just went on that 3.5 hour journey with you. Your dedication, ingenuity, savvy yet safe cost cutting choices, relentlessness and unwillingness to give up, was as inspirational as it was uplifting. The joy, pride and satisfaction that came from AMs seal of approval had me in my feels. And the road trip was the cherry on top. I was scared when I saw the red wrap roll but your instincts were spot on. As a bit of entertainment, this was better 95% of anything on the tele. Full disclosure. I did watch at 1.5x speed. 😂. Thanks for stitching it all up I into one stream and for pushing yourself to your limits. Anyone catch the initial purchase price of the wrecked car. I somehow missed mussed it.

[@no-worries-its-okay]

I found this in a Google search... Armstrong parted with £54,000 or around $62,000. Not bad when, according to Classic, an aggregator of used car prices, finds that the average third-generation Vantage sells for just over $174,000.

[@sarahlee5358]

seems like he didn't even say it cause i went back to check

[@JonA-qe2su]

I watched every second of it at 1x - no mention of the original purchase price

[@brandondejong8080]

Out of all your rebuilds I like this one the most, the red absolutely makes that car, such an amazing color for such an amazing car, you are an artist despite what you think about yourself, amazing work

[@7quidstudio]

Never been less begrudging of an Aston Martin owner in my life. Mat you've earned every smile with this car, absolutely loved watching your journey and you fully deserve this car. Sounds fabulous ❤

Huge West Coast of California (Half Moon Bay) fan here! Your videos are sensational. I can't compliment you enough except to say "I'M ADDICTED", bro'. At 77 years old, and somewhat of a car guy myself, I'm enjoying every single one of them, one video at a time. You are truly "a personality" that can capture an audience. Also, your crew, including your dad, are great. If you keep making these, I'll keep watching. Thanks for all you're doing.

[@jean-jacquesloesch6367]

Hi, Mat ... I am blown away. First you managed to keep me hooked for 3 hours watching this amazing video, which leaves me speechless. I'm humbled by your self taught mechanic skills. But where I think you are truly exceptional is how you managed to shoot the road trip video. IT IS AS GOOD AS TOP GEAR. Your personality but also the quality of the realization, quality of the images, the back story... And all this with 1/100 of Top Gear's budget. Damn the BBC shall hire you right away. You are very very talented....

[@cainejingtrakool8205]

Hi mat and the gang , i've just finished watching your video . absolutely loved it . The whole tale from start to finish , The buying of the knackered Aston , the pain staking job of taking it apart and then putting it together again , the fun and games involved in this is just amazing . Taking the cars apart ,sourcing the parts .learning as you go to correct the faults and make the cars good again .WOW ! What makes your video so good is that most people are so cash strapped these days , they'll never ever have a hope in hells chance of ever owning any of the cars that you have shown in your videos . You have given so many people a glimmer of hope that anything is possible if you put your mind to it and take a risk . You also have something that a lot of people don't , the ability to be naturally you ,humble and sincere . this video had such a feel good factor about it , you and your mates being so foot loose and fancy free and going on a road trip to the south of France .It reminded probably so many of us of similar experiences that we've all had at one time or another in our lives and we just never wanted it to stop. God bless , take care and stay safe .

[@Flame19judgement]

I'm going back through your old rebuilds as I only discovered you recently. Amazing job. The dash is just bonkers. Coming from newer videos however I'm very happy with the changes. Mainly the help. Your dad is so integral to your builds I was shocked to not see him anywhere. I'm sure he helped you along the way though. Your friends are also vital in the latest builds. A couple cameo moments here and there in this video for people like Chris but the newer videos are so much more fun with more involvement from others. Also very VERY glad you moved away from wrapping cars as a good paintjob is a million miles better. Love everything you have done more recently, and I hope you get a new GT3
