Ok whats up with this. Anyone notice that the older people only work at Dealership parts counters and everyone else they do business with is about their same age. The V tuned guy has amazing skills to be so young and pulling frames and welding in qtr panels so perfectly and then when they took the car to get aligned and the wheels swapped it was like teens running that shop too but wait. Another 20 something dude showed up to install their garage doors!. WTH!.

They explained both were done after hours. Simple really, the young guys are their friends helping them out once the shops at which they work are closed to the public. It is refreshing to see skill trades aren't dying out and being passed on. They mentioned their construction background, which shows in the shop build, have one friend who does framework, another who's family has a tire shop.

I noticed the same thing. I think its great. It means that not all young folks are sitting at home playing xbox while they wine about life not being fair.

This is the reason why their builds come together so smoothly. They seem to have connections in all the right places. Could you imagine the average person buying a salvaged car and trying to organize all the work that needs to be done, all while filming, editing, and uploading videos? Their channel is really refreshing.

You have to remember that the car is generating income for them from youtube. So regardless of what they paid for it, it's paying for itself and then some most likely.
