REBUILDING A SMASHED AUDI R8 THAT I WON AT AUCTION

[@revioli493]

for a second I thought this was going to be a "12 days of Christmas" parody when you started with the one broken knuckle, two bent wheels, no brake fluid and a no start when you turn the key lol

[@EdgasketGarage]

good content idea lol

[@Dylankeenan]

I love the seats and gated shifter dude, looks like it's going to be an awesome build

[@EdgasketGarage]

Yeah I need a good seamstress for the driver seat.

[@ericbittner2667]

Found this channel a few months ago, love it Ed. Also just realized you must be in Bucks County too, see a lot of familiar places in the background! Keep it up!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Yes, Bucks is beautiful!

[@Phil99six]

Wasn’t sure about this one until I saw the gated manual. Looking forward to watching this series 😎

[@EdgasketGarage]

A Manual can make ANY car interesting

[@eddewald4601]

Can't wait to sit in the driver's seat and do some cruisin. Also, loved the twist on "solution".

[@EdgasketGarage]

A few kinks to work out first 😂

[@htownblue11]

Gotta say I admire you for taking on this challenge Ed. This will be your biggest rebuild so far, but I enjoy watching you learn and work your way through these builds. I do the same with my project vehicles.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you TJ eager to see this thing roll again!

[@eddewald4601]

Looking forward to the next video and more Good News. Haven't heard Sam Cooke singing forever!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Hope his lawyers don't mind the remix

[@kfbr3928]

That unloading process was hilarious! Looking forward to this build.

[@EdgasketGarage]

It's always an interesting 1-2 hours when the delivery truck shows up.

[@BigDaddyTech]

Great video!! Excited to see some Good parts fix this thing up.

[@EdgasketGarage]

many parts on the way!

[@sophiadewald]

Keeps getting better and better - can’t wait to see this car come back to life !!

[@EdgasketGarage]

You know where I'll be 🤪

[@gabrieladamasceno4449]

Best video yet!!! Can’t wait to see how this build turns out!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you Gab. My favorite yet too. (I say that about every new car)

[@BiteClubEren]

Ed... good luck haha!! I'll be closely following this build.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you! More to come!

[@thekb]

Great video as always! Love your channel and projects!!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you for watching 🤜🏼

[@danproctor8905]

Great new car Ed. Looking forward to this build.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you, Dan!

[@kevinkoehl2852]

Love Audi R8’s, love your videos, perfect combination. Keep up the awesome content!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Ah thank you Kevin

[@lioneleason]

You’re unreal Eddie!! What a sweet rig, can’t wait to see her out on the road!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you Leo. These are great cars, this one needs a little more loving than usual.

[@jaswingrove]

with wheel / suspension impacts it’s worth checking (which i’m sure you have done and are aware of)for any front suspension mount cracking where the struts meet the frame. one of those internet BS not really a problem problems, but can appear with cars with significant wheel impacts is all. not sure what year yours is but don’t think they started reinforcing the frames there until a little later

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you. I fully expected this car to have a cracked strut mount. Shocked to find it intact.

[@jaswingrove]

@@EdgasketGarage excellent news considering whatever mayhem that car has seen and further reinforces the fact this ‘issue’ is largely internet bollocks. had mine checked pre sale too and was perfect

[@ValeriyKaminskyy]

just so good and easy to watch

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you for taking the time to offer feedback.

[@SomeJuanPlay]

Another great video!! Sweet stash by the way!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you!

[@ThrottleAddiction]

A couple of _'notes to self'_ in that one :)

[@EdgasketGarage]

A long list 😂

[@scraplifedalt]

Very jealous of the gated 6 speed!

[@EdgasketGarage]

It's good to be back!

[@mcomet]

Oh no. You almost damaged the bumper! 😂 looking forward to this rebuild.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Unfortunately I did do some extra damage to the wheel liner but it'll work out lol

[@petrpesek-rc4yn]

hi what is the brand of aluminum wheels? size and et front and back thanks

[@EdgasketGarage]

BBS Fi-r 20" front and rear. 235-30-20 front, 305-25-20 rear

[@rikblythe145]

Hi I’m also in the process of putting a v10 r8 back on the road. Mines a spider and the roof doesnt work. It’s driving me mad.

[@EdgasketGarage]

I try and keep clear of any salvage convertibles because the top can be a nightmare!

[@ethandenson7182]

Gosh i love these vids

[@EdgasketGarage]

Love makin em!

[@petrpesek-rc4yn]

good day, could you tell me the width of the front and rear BBS discs and the front and rear, thank you.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Sorry mine are all bent up!

[@Tpass432]

Good luck Edward.

[@EdgasketGarage]

I need it on this one!

[@petrpesek-rc4yn]

what are the wheels on the Audi r8, size and et? front and rear wheels. Thank you

[@EdgasketGarage]

I did not buy these wheels so I don't know the offset.

[@bettegreen1062]

If anyone can get done its you. I look forward to seeing it speeding around the 'hood.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Thank you!

[@RichFowler579]

Looks like Bo and Luke Duke tried to get away from Cletus in that thing.

[@EdgasketGarage]

From the sounds of it a motorcycle hit the rear end. Still researching the history.

[@JC7119]

I can't wait for you to get a join button lmfao

[@EdgasketGarage]

lol I still gotta figure out how that works.

[@bug5041]

Gated, worth it!

[@EdgasketGarage]

Agree

[@jeffgordon2199]

Eddie how did you learn so much about cars. Would enjoy seeing you after all of these years. Jason Gordon’s dad

[@EdgasketGarage]

Hi Jeff! I worked as a motorcycle mechanic at a local shop during high school years. Otherwise I have the internet to thank! Thank you for following along. Catch you on street road! 😂

[@Mr.LobosNYC]

I'm new to the channel; is 13+ days between vids the norm? Or is this due to the holiday season? Not complaining, just trying to figure out the release schedule

[@EdgasketGarage]

1-3 weeks is my normal. Thank you for watching!

[@petrpesek-rc4yn]

thank you, I watch your videos and the size of those wheels is 20 inches and et should be discarded on the inside of the wheel, I am interested, I also want to buy one, thank you if you look at the rear and front wheels and write down how they are there et.

[@EdgasketGarage]

You want to buy the two good wheels?

[@sciflyer67]

Gated Nice!

[@EdgasketGarage]

What a treat

[@patrickdan34]

Is that top end gonna need a little love that I'm hearing?

[@EdgasketGarage]

I have to dig a little deeper. Hopefully just the sound of an engine that hasn't ran in 9 months. These motors are notorious for carbon build up in the intake.

[@NeoAndersonReloaded]

Im debating on R8 or a gt3. R8 huge savings!

[@EdgasketGarage]

I was bidding on a Gt3 before I won this car. Turbo S or GT3 will be on this channel 🤪. Nothing beats Porsche.

[@christianludwig1074]

When the engine started I was as stoked as I have been from a KZbin video in a long time. That is, until we went on that little good news/bad news emotional roller coaster. Thanks nonetheless.

[@EdgasketGarage]

I am sorry for the emotional ride, but just know its worse for me 😂

[@Spartan375X]

I wonder if the previous owner thought this car was a plane.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Forgot to put the landing gear down

[@ethandenson7182]

Let’s gooooo

[@EdgasketGarage]

Stay tuned!

[@vanlacio4396]

Refabricate the whole back of the car.

[@EdgasketGarage]

Words of wisdom

[@skookumbuilds3282]

it's basically mint

[@EdgasketGarage]

Long story short
