[@raymonddargie6594]

As a 73 year old guy who has been washing and waxing cars and trucks since I was 13 or so,it is with great pleasure that I watch your videos. You enjoy what your doing and it shows. As far as i'm concerned, you guys rock. Absolutely the best detailing channel on KZbin,hands down. Your attention to detail and your attitude make it a complete.package.Thank you for putting a smile on my face.

[@AlexanderRothschild-n7o]

Thank you for helping build this great country we live in Sir 🙏🇺🇸 Love this show

[@charliejenmiller7225]

You guys are so awesome at your craft. Reviving neglected cars and making them look new is no easy task. It's a labor of love. Additionally, the generosity you share with your staff team shows that you value their talent. Keep up the great content.

[@BluemanArthur]

I love your videos. As a retired touring drummer, my body is destroyed and I can’t do things like this anymore. Really enjoy watching. ❤

[@robertfabra3016]

Are they drying out weed next to the cherry picker?😂 it sure looks like it hanging from the ceiling

[@matttafakt]

Yup..1st thing i noticed 😁

[@juvantejohnson]

Are we like the only ones?

[@totogames64]

I was looking if someone else saw it

[@DespaceMan]

Slush funds for next years crop 😁😁

[@darrensaltiel440]

because you had to be high af to own a wrx .... and a little gay

[@deshawngillette7269]

Subarus I swear, I’m military currently deployed I have a 2018 STI that’s been sitting since last June. Long story short bought it 15k miles engine oil light was on at 17k 😂 got a new engine for it from IAG. Can’t wait to tackle that after deployment. Sadly from June to January of 2024 it was parked mold got to the interior. So gotta find a way to sort that out also. I love you guy’s video thought bringing back these Subarus. 😂

[@anberlinblase7255]

im a big Subaru guy i have a 2011 wrx sedan and i absolutely love it and the compliments i get on it and watching this video was awesome and so happy he got the car i hope you guys will give us updates on it

[@JasonThibodeau-l6f]

I love your videos. As a retired touring drummer, my body is destroyed and I can’t do things like this anymore. Really enjoy watching.

[@Hoboelmo23]

You guys are amazing. Not only do you do top notch detailing work, you also show how big your ❤ is by giving a best friend his dream car. May many blessings go your way.

[@mattpipes5106]

You guys really went above and beyond with this one! Glad the Scoobie has a new lease on life, great video!

[@lilguilty]

Pull the plugs and crank it. I’m guessing a head gasket failed and while it was sitting one of the cylinders probably filled with coolant or most likely oil since the oil was so low.

[@takumikid]

mate headgaskets dont fail while sitting also fun fact: the headgasket is a meme or a joke 😮 wow soo cool

[@JoezGarage]

When you voiced over RJ talking about pulling out the dent I spit my coffe laughing 😂 all the little details you add to the video on top of the already amazing footage and work you guys do makes such a difference. ❤❤ love it brother well done

[@Yardoun]

5:43 not sure why he said this, it is much easier to patch/plug a tire when it is full of air. I've been doing tires for 8 years now.

[@justinhatch5245]

Ya I'm still scratching my head at that comment too lol

[@lurleanhunt9335]

Need a video when he gets this one back on the road!

[@skylinevspec000]

Ive got the STI version of this model and its so great seeing them being cared for.

[@britishcarfan9601]

Hey I really enjoy watching ya’lls videos. I’m also a car detailer and I do it for a living. I also work at a full-service car wash as well and it’s a lot of fun doing these crazy transformations. I mainly focus on classic show cars since I’m apart of a British and Porsche car club. I have a suggestion for you guys, could you detail a classic british car like an old Jaguar, Triumph, MG, Austin Healey, or even some classic luxury cars like a Cadillac Fleetwood, Oldsmobile 98, Lincoln Towncar, Ford LTD, Ford Fairmont, Pontiac Bonneville, etc. Anything from the 1930s-1970s would really make my day. Keep up the good work guys. I own a 2004 Mazda RX8 6-speed top of the line and I got it last year it sat for 3 years and detailed it and it’s in wonderful shape.

[@tostyjoost]

16:13 love the aggressive throw

[@tomsloger4073]

The WRX really came out nice,great job as always ! Is the "oil starvation a common thing on the Subaru WRX? No oil Is always a bad sign.

[@Kwharton66]

Flushing the cooling system change thermostat and radiator

[@tyrekknowles8249]

Yep

[@goldtutch]

This is actually my dream car, low bar i know but they are good allrounders if you know a bit about them and look after them properly, its an attainable dream! I had the non turbo one and it was slow real slow but handled good especially on gravel, the cambelt is expensive i paid 1700 buks nz for the whole kit with water pump n that and 2.5l versions blow the gasket easy but once all that stuff is done they are reliable little cars, if you thrash them hardout youll hit trouble

[@der_kluger_gunther8391]

really cool looking car, i honestly would not mind to have it. awesome job on the dent btw, i love how it came out in the end.

[@Ben-in6qh]

What an owner, no oil, no coolant, 'just stopped' on him

[@pwf6981]

Awesome job guys! It's unfortunate about the engine, but great that it went to someone who can give it new life.

[@johnteniteni8423]

Good morning Everyone from New Zealand 🇳🇿

[@Wesley_C]

Your work is so awesome, now you going to survive to clean more cars, very well and look at this Subie, this car is riding muddy and dirty, wow, this car is a treasure.

[@robsimoneau1327]

You should follow and show his build of this car, I would love to see this!

[@Gordo101978]

It came out really nice and what a nice gesture. Unfortunately, it doesn't run, but now the new owner has kind of a blank canvas as to what to do for a power plant, thank God it's not yellow 😏

[@tmaree5411]

You guys will get it going for sure 🇦🇺❤️

[@seanblockley7059]

Seized engine aside, that’s a sweet ride. I’d be excited too. You guys get “BROS OF THE YEAR”. I’m liking a subscribing…

[@molebogengbutanasomo3894]

Awesome you guys a truly great guys, for buying him the car very kind of you, well done and congrats to the new owner of the Subaru 🎉

[@anonanon6947]

I dont think pressure washing dirt/dust into the paint is smart.. That's just me, i'm little OCD. Would of used lighter pressure first to get most of the debris off, then the pressure washer.

[@bbqguy777]

Im a long time subscriber, can I have the next WRX you find? LOL, love your vids, y’all do a wonderful job!

[@sttm1283]

thats a really nice gesture for your buddy.... if i was in his shoes id be thrilled someone bought me a car....

[@FreedomRock44]

I want the car Behind Brad!!!!!!!! I see my dream car. I was just talking with my lifelong buds and in the 80's we all LOVED THAT CAR!!!!!!!!!!

[@FreedomRock44]

Congrats Brad that is Awesome!!!!!! You should be able to find an engine pretty easy.

[@okiegrad2007]

Great transformation! Always love your videos and the care you take on these cars. RJ not only has an awesome F-Me booty, his dent repair skills are A+

[@NickGiannotti0226]

Oh man I am loving that Starion/Conquest there!!

[@Yellowbasterd]

Might be head gasket. Not just radiator but timing belt water pump and head gasket need replace every 100K

[@gazevans251]

The missed bit inside the bonnet scoop at the start gave me the heebie jeebies! Fab job tho 😅

[@debijeffries43]

It is so satisfying to me to see the dirt washed away. A very good video on a great car. I had a Subaru VTX and loved it. Keep up the great work. Fun from Colorado.

[@Webaus]

Is that weed in the barn 😮

[@saracaswell8004]

That's what I'm wondering 😅

[@NAYR-kd7lo]

Last years crop! Remember farmers adapt, can’t afford it. Grow it!

[@mach1john]

Old school: Marvel Mystery Oil in the spark plug holes. Let it sit and bump the starter.

[@richardturk7162]

Been watching your videos a lot lately and after 4 years of git and dirt I decided to hand wash my Jeep JK. Might as well give it a detail while I am at it. That cap has been chewed on my mice or rats they love the taste of brake fluid I suppose.

[@krisshutler]

Love to see you guys wash up and detail a proper mudded up tractor.

[@sethtriggs]

I would imagine with a radiator you could fix this and make it run, will see what happens at the end. Also just want to say I love the RJ's PDR jingle and I hope you do it more! Great video.

[@omokejames4395]

i love what you do guys, you guys are awesome, keep up. and i like those camera gears, that is a whole studio wish i gat that, it is a hustle for me

[@JaycobGTR]

You guys are awesome tbh ! Y’all really appreciate the camera man which shows a lot about you guys 💪🏻 god bless y’all !

[@jongib6096]

Why don’t you guys start with the roof and work your way down??

[@Chicofuran]

They start on the sides bc if they start on the top the water would run down the sides killing those awesome video shots.

[@craigpierre2765]

Another great transformation. Love watching your videos and it gives me motivation to get in the garage and spiffy up one of our rigs. Still building up my equipment and chemicals but some of your ideas like magic erasers for cleaning are awesome. Keep em coming!!

[@keyziekilla2475]

Love to see more of this wrx on the channel

[@JKMEGALIFE]

i love your work guys it is great keep up, and i wish i got those camera gears it is a whole studio,that is a hustle for me,

[@corneliusochom4529]

Wow...nice to watch WRX comeback to life on the outside, though she dead on the inside. We await to watch the engine swap, so we get to know exactly what killed the original engine, and if anything could have been done to save her. Bigups to Brad!

[@justinpasko3387]

recently started going down the rabbit hole of car detailing. Curious as to why you didn't cover the alternator? Most channels/blogs recommend....it kind of makes snese, but also doesn't if it only gets sprayed like you did.

[@wilsongriffin8852]

Thanks again guys for responding to my email! You guys are the best. What a great story with the WRX and it looks amazing. Another great find and great episode!

[@alexphillips6245]

i like 2004 wrx sti and 1994 honda civic si eg6 hatchback k24 swapped pro supercharged

[@dalegereaux1863]

Very nice gesture to buy it for your friend ! 👍

[@EdgarRuiz]

Another awesome vid! We should all surround ourselves with friends like these. Keep up the great work 👏👏👏👏

[@joebennefield3368]

It was so nice for y'all to give the guy that car sweet job

[@davidt3563]

Love ya guys!

[@Backinthedaypics]

*Looks like that fender is in need of RJs PDR* ~With juice toast and milk, it becomes part of a complete and balanced breakfast.

[@Metalodeath]

You guys should invest In a glue puller my body shop recently got one and works pretty well! Mabye even a few suction cups?

[@davidbarnsley8486]

I’m sure it will be very easy for Brad to get a used engine and fix it It’s a really nice car and will be great when it’s all sorted 👍👍👍🇦🇺

[@thiagoemorge]

Saturday wash fever😂 is a really nice job, greetings from Brazil ❤

[@bluerazor7049]

Great video! I'm curious, do you plan on detailing the GMC Cherry picker and the International Loadstar?

[@nick011182]

Head gasket issues? Come do mine next! It's not that dirty but the paint needs love.

[@jdmfl0w]

I had a 2014 wrx :) I sure do miss it sometimes ...stage 2

[@Jakepf]

God I love that year of Subaru. I want one so badly. It's gonna be a nightmare finding one for myself someday

[@drw4338]

Please give us an update on the WRX after Brad gets it running 😁🤙

[@48statenomad]

Whatcha got hanging in the back there.....lol

[@skks7674]

Thank you for the entertainment. Enjoy your videos. Question, is there a reason why you don't foam the car before the first power wash spray down?

[@andrewode889]

A new Car 🤙

[@hypotenuse314]

Fantastic Video! Had me laughing though when y'all were like "oh there's no oil!?" It's a Subaru with mechanical issues. . . oil should be the first thing you check 😅. Great work nevertheless. So clean and fresh.

[@mikeomalley5407]

Great reset guys! Since the owner of the car was a smoker, did you clean the headliner and replace cabin filters as well? Congrats Brad!

[@tim_g3478]

You need a side video of him pulling the engine and rebuilding it. Have him call Davin @Hagerty. He pulled an engine out of a rotted out Subaru and rebuilt it. There was a learning curve to it.

[@ashrafbanser]

He was already doing things to the car in his mind just by looking at it while you were talking.😂😂

[@goodwitchharley]

You all are amazing! ❤ One day I’d like to take a day trip to have you detail my vehicle. (if I can afford it)

[@dalegereaux1863]

Great detail job ! 👍

[@hamishcruden7623]

Great job guys... How long will the tire plug last? Cheers.

[@francoisbouchard602]

Good.job Nice car good show 😄👍👍👏👏👏

[@-Primer-]

I want that Chrysler Conquest you got tucked away.

[@lanzar111]

Great review man! But i had the same question you didn't answer😅! Which one is better the bmw5 or this?

[@MrWill73]

Best of luck fixing her up👍👍👍

[@hyenaman007]

What a beautiful car , man

[@PatrickHRoss]

Wow! Great stuff!!

[@kevinsharkey7402]

Amazing work!! I’m from Toronto if ever near Ohio could I pop in to say hello. ?

[@johnlloydracelis2481]

One of my dream car and brand 😍😍

[@tynguyen7000]

I love the wrx so much even the new one

[@kevinmoffatt4373]

AWESOME

[@esjay808]

"don't mind the 18 pounds of herb hanging behind me" lol

[@Tazytots]

It can be tough knowing the extent of damage done to a modded EJ25 motor. If you ever come across one and it was modded pre-owned, a lot of the times you may as well just leave it in the barn. If it has any signs of being modded, you can guarentee that the owner beat the shit out of it. Sometimes that repair cost is half the cost of the cash value of the car depending on what the previous owner treated it like. People who mod these WRXs often do it improperly, cheap out on parts, cheap out on the tune, then drive them like the devil until they inevitably blow up, causing numerous different internal damages. I guarentee you that that owner drove the car offroad, but never bothered installing a baffled oil pan and that's why his engine got starved. Untouched EJ25's? Probably one of the more reliable engines on the market and have been for 20 years, but they do have their temperaments. You need to take care of it. Basic oil care is fundamental to every gas car on the planet. I don't know why people ignore it.

[@LayzeeGiant]

When y’all gonna roll up some of that bud behind the red dump truck?

[@waaromleefik2]

2:30. Your friend looks like Sreten from M539 restorations :D

[@dalegereaux1863]

Some clips in your regular shows along the way as the Subaru gets repaired would be nice to see.

[@FreedomRock44]

Since you said you were giving it to your cameraman........You get it to run!!!!!!!! hahahahaha.

[@Kwharton66]

They should change the cabin filter

[@MrOiram46]

Dang, I’m more interested in those trucks behind the WRX too 🤩

[@breezy5909]

Every-time you guys clean the engine of these cars I get freaked out. I have always thought that those are very delicate and water sensitive parts.

[@yonathanzavala3205]

wow dude... congrats Brad...

[@davidm6256]

I’m just getting back into detailing cars and I have a question, I’m kinda timid about doing the engine area, I don’t want to f it up by power washing it, can you give me some tips and tricks on how to? Thanks

[@nautospavn]

Great video, and great advice

[@DespaceMan]

I never like seeing people using high pressure washer in the engine bay, my old man said you're pushing water into areas were it's not spose to be always use a house to rinse is off the town water pressure is sufficient. We came across many customers with car electric problems & we asked the owner if they knew how their engine bay was cleaned? Yep you guested it high pressure water cleaner resulting in lots of corrosion found most between electrical connectors, one was so bad we had to replace the whole fuse box include the wire harness & connectors. If you using a pressure cleaner just wash without pump on avoid blasting, sure it's quicker & looks nice but problems usually come afterwards $$$$

[@heroinwithease]

ive pressed washed the shit out of my ford focus engine bay never had a problem
