I enjoy watching the clean up transformation on WD Detailing YouTube videos.

Wheeler Dealers "Elvis" is great by doing things right, most times with common tools and explaining why he's doing the repair and how the component works.

Welcome to my channel, I Do Cars. Its an answer to the awkward question "So what do you do?". On my channel you'll find videos of the dumb and overzealous car projects I take on personally. You'll also find videos of getting cars running that are either wrecked, or have been sitting for a long time. There will be some how-to repair videos as well because showing people how to fix their vehicle themselves is what I love to do. Of course, you'll find engine teardown videos.

I enjoy it when he’s working auctions and he starts listing features, stats, weird facts, etc about whatever is rolling off the block.

He does a great job explaining things on a simple level. The other mechanic was also very good at that.

Trucks! With Stacy David. That show was bad arse. There was one episode where he said he could start any car in any condition and by god he started a deuce and a half with no floor and a flooded engine. Dude was a wizard.

Like watching the real stuff on YouTube. Dave's Auto, who does work for bitchin rides, is one of my favorites. Royalty Auto in another one. They know their shite.

I quit watching wheeler dealers when they let the original mechanic go

I enjoy watching the YouTube channels. Vice Grip Garage, Mortske Repair and Puddin"s Fab Shot are the 3 I have in my rotation.

I like ViceGrip Garage, too.
Also like Junkyard Digs, Thunderhead289, Dylan McCool, Low-Budget Garage.

Is Elvis Mike Brewer's third mechanic? Edd China, and Ant Anstead before him...."I'll 'ave your 'and..."

Vice Grip Garage on YouTube.

He just works on the car. No deadlines, no “OMG we need to find a buyer”, no made up drama. Just a guy fixing machines.

He doesn’t always do what I would do, but he’s worth watching for a couple of hours a week.

I like Wheeler dealers because they mostly deal with cars and builds the average fit can do.
