Mat’s dad's knowledge and time is forever proving to be invaluable. He is truly a legend and I hope he can see how much your fan base loves him
Love him seems like such a genuine guy and a really good dad.
And he acks like a kid and is having a blast. He's one cool guy.
🤦
When you say he;s a Legend where have you seen him before , what Program
You know his name tho? Haha
It's a good day when this guy uploads
Indeed
i agree

In the Netherlands we say: "en anders niks"
🎉 💯
Mat's channel is just pure CZcams gold, and definitely no coincidence that it's already approaching 2M subscribers! A very likeable team, great storytelling while explaining things very well, cool cars, masterful editing and just a boatload of enthusiasm. This is the only channel I sit down for every time there's a new video. Keep it going guys, don't ever change the formula.
Storytelling is certainly a speciality of that team!!! I'm surprised they don't ACT up more for the camera.... wonder which youtuber will end up with that 360 next!
I couldn't agree more, awesome cars and he and his Dad are fearless, Mat's continued upbeat attitude no matter what the challenges are and his video editing skills are second to none on all car channels. Keep up the good work!!
Facts
Best channel for this stuff
Your dad, Tony certainly knows his stuff, I’ve built literally hundreds of car and motorbike engines, but I’ve never built a gearbox, amazing perseverance and patience, congratulations to all of you
Maybe you should start making videos
I don’t think I have smiled so big in my life watching a CZcams video. The energy that Matt and his dad have together is palpable. Nearly brings tears to my eyes to see this.
i already teared on the first start
At least it wasn’t just me that had tears in my eyes😂
Me too
It’s one thing to have extremely entertaining content, but it’s another when you can wrap up unforgettable memories with your Dad. Really great videos
The thing that is special about your videos is the time you get to spend with your dad, both doing something you love. The joy and pride on your dad's face is lovely. Keep up the great work. Cherish these times.
So true!!
2 things
- pull the fuel pump fuse when turning it over to avoid petrol in the cylinders.
- 75w80 offers equal protection to 75w90 but gear changes are much nicer.
Matt, your dad’s a legend! Spending time together doing such exciting projects must be so special.
Truly awesome, i am SO enjoying this series! Thanks
Never thought id see you here lol!
Wish I’d had a father that I could have had a relationship with, like the two of you have! It’s a joy to see!
From what I heard, My father was an A+ mechanic as well.. unfortunately he pass before I was born so i never had the pleasure to meet him.. The time Mat is spending with his dad is priceless.. so I'm living Vicariously through these videos.. fantasizing that could have been us.. Love seeing the Smiles they give each other... and the triumphs they both share.
You bring joy to the internet !!!!!!! I have been where you are , rebuilt things from noting , had the highs & the lows ! Thank you all for your time and hard work to share it with us !!!
Dad to the rescue always amazes us with his enthusiasm we just love him for the father he is
Thanks for the amazing comment , Mats Dad 😂
@@tonyarmstrong2987 you welcome fellow
What an amazing channel you have built in a short amount of time! The cast is quirky, knowledgable, and hilarious. Your explaining the steps you are doing is very educational and helpful. The chemistry between you and your dad is heart-warming, and I think you should make him a grandfather. Thank you for not falling for the trope of endless shots of power tools at work.
Agreed on the grandfather part. Take another wyfood and then.. straight to work. :-)
I don’t think Mat has enough time to also be a father 🤣
Mat would be lost without Hannah in the garage passing him his spanners,and holding bumpers for him 😂
@@M140i23 Think of him teaching his kid all of the things he and his dad know and how tight a family they are.
@@carllamb6711 they are so cute together. Within 4 years the baby could. Sometimes you have to plan ahead.
It’s great to see you and your dad working in harmony, it’s great to see family working together and actually getting along.
The sheer excitement in their faces especially mat's dads face is so heartwarming
The energy in these videos is so incredibly infectious. You guys have something special and I'll be watching every single video. Well done Mat, dad and team!
How many times do I have to say this: that is NOT his dad.
@@GardenGuy1943 Tony is his dad
@@thesollys9540 Mat is 41 years old, his dad looks late 40s. That is NOT his dad.
@@GardenGuy1943 Bro he is his dad. What are you on about??
@@GardenGuy1943Mat's 30, let's say for the sake of argument his dad had him at 20, that'd put him at 50, which is just about spot on...
That must be such an amazing feeling when you spent all that time building it up and then for it to start first time like that! Well done to you and your Dad!
There is NO WAY you got this engine started with a mix match of two engines, two gearboxes and a bunch of random wiring tries, Mat, you and your dad must be the best mechanic/rebuilders I've ever seen, loving it
Can't help but be impressed with your hard work and enthusiasm. You are a true inspiration for the younger generation..Hats off to you.
19:54 Been following for months now and love the rebuilds. I lost my dad at 23 but give your dad a big old hug and keep hugging. Life is shite. Keep the vids coming mate
One of the many things that I love about your channel is how much you seem to genuinely enjoy one another’s company. Your dad is a treasure man!!! Keep doing what you are doing lady and gentlemen!!!
17:32 - The take home lesson from this experience is that when you rebuild an engine, it's a good idea to get hold of an oil gallery priming cylinder that you fill with oil and use compressed air to force into the oil galleries. Generally that it connected where the oil pressure sender is attached. You may have to fill the cylinder a number of times to get the oil through all of the oil galleries. When you then crank the engine the first time, you should have oil pressure pretty quickly. The good decision on your part was to crank it without the plugs in so that there was no load on the big end journals.
"Mat, you've got my utmost respect! 🙌 Your videos have us all eagerly waiting for the next one. They keep us hooked, and we can't help but wonder what's next. Let's keep the Mat Armstrong family growing strong! 🤩❤ Sending love from India! 🇮🇳"
You’re killing it Mat. Keep on rocking man!
I can’t describe in words how lucky you are to have a dad like this. I really hope I can be for my children what your dad is to you! Also, amazing content as always 🔥
Normally you would have to build initial pressure with external pump...but we all do it with a starter and its fine...a tip to pull the fuel pump fuse next time so you dont sump unburnt fuel into cylinders next time. Its normal for engine to rattle like that when dry
Best day of the week when new content arrives! I'm hooked, I need to see the next episode... does the gearbox work... don't leave me hanging. Complete respect Matt to you and everyone involved in this channel and the nicest bit is you seem like a really nice genuine guy, not arrogant at all, so much respect for what you've achieved. Keep the content coming!!!
Congratulations, Mat and everyone involved on the first crank start-up!!! This was so entertaining my face hurts from smiling. Way to go Mat.!!
I love this channel and you guys. Your no frills, realistic approach to the rebuild feels genuine and inline with typical garage guys just trying to live the dream! Keep it up gents!
Watching the joy on your dads face when the ferrari started up was a thing of beauty and a real moment to cherish. Love watching your channel and I think this episode epitomises the whole channel. Love it keep the content coming
The look on Mat's Dad's face when it first started is absolutely priceless! Well done gentlemen
That is not Mat’s dad. Mat is 41, his “dad” looks in his mid to late 40s. How can you not see this?
@@GardenGuy1943 he's 31
I love seeing you and your dad working on these projects. Reminds me of when my dad and I worked on cars together. Good memories.
Congratulations, hope gearbox and diff are ok. It helps the hydraulic valve lifters if you submerse in a container with engine oil overnight before fitting them. This usually primes them.
The father's reaction to it firing up is priceless. The pride and feeling of achievement all through his body posture and reaction.
Im becoming a real fan of this channel, feels like something I would like to do with my family. Props to all the team!
Always great to see the invaluable experience of Dad in each video. He's a great pillar much love❤🎉🎉🎉
You build tension beautifully in a down-to-earth, honest fashion! I find it compelling watching. Well done!
Its so nice to watch a video were theres progress on the build in every video unlike some channels that are attempting to make build videos but are so tedious to watch because hardly anything gets done. You've got the right formula Mat and also the best taste in cars and mods!
This is what we all been waiting for, new content 😁 thank you Mat 🙏🏽
Fantastic to see your dad working with you my dad never done 1 single thing with me we are like total strangers I've tried many things over the years to try to do things together but nothing worked you really don't know how lucky you are
Mat as a father with sons your age, I absolutely love to see the honest interaction between you two. You can see through these videos how much you guys truly love each other. What a dream to work together and do what you love! Bless you both mate
Tony’s laugh is just so contagious, what a guy. 😂
I'm seriously more excited about your uploads than my own 😅
I am so happy for you Mat, you and your team (Dad) are awesome 👌
Just having had a similar experience of building sth with my dad yesterday. I can tell you the joy is immense and the moment is priceless, time is no longer a limit and fatigue won't dare to bother. Mat is among the luckiest in the world, having shared this experience many times with his fantastic dad. Keep up the good work and that big smile on your dad's face, Mat.
PS: I'm no longer living in my country, which made it even more special to do such a thing with my father as we don't see each other that often anymore.
his smile and excitment is trully heartwarming
This is the best channel on CZcams. Total respect to you your dad for such great content ✌️
20:02 The HAPPINESS in your eyes made me happy as well.
I was so excited waiting for this part to be released for couple of days and I got so happy when I first saw the episode is out.
Great video as usual and great chemistry between you and your dad.
Love your content and the people in your videos. Don't stop uploading your videos please. Much respect to your the Mat Family 🙏🙏
As a father, I can tell you how proudly your dad looks at you and enjoys doing this with you. This is a father son dream 100%. Fair to the both of you these series are epic!
My Dad passed 2 yrs. ago , I wish I'd had more time with him . I'm so happy when I see you working with your Dad. I get very emotional seeing you guys all working together. Thank you!
I know bugger all about mechanics. But you have an excellent presentation and production style that is TV quality. Wouldn’t be interested otherwise. Its a real skill. Congrats 🎉
What a pleasure it is to join you on your little discovery journeys as you go through a build. Your families attitude is infectious. Makes my day. Thanks so much.
You are heroes, guys! I love your optimistic and determined way of presenting all that masterpiece work in all 4 parts to us! You are amazing !
dont know how Matt stays so calm and happy. he's a pleasure to watch.. Long may he continue !!
The expressions on Hannah's face are priceless, she's living every moment.
My mood just went from 0 to a 100, I'm always happy when this man uploads💯
These videos have it all - mystery, drama, family, puzzles... and all so well put together. I hate to say it, but I even enjoy the ads. Well done!
So .... Mat has become an Icon already 🎉. Mat, can u recall back in the days where i told you that you are on your way to become famous and rich? I was wrong, you are already there ...Thank you for making us smile and cry from happiness ❤️
This channel will be imcomplete without dad banter and laughter . Really enjoying the content recently with the help from your dad .keep the high spirits rolling ❤
We need 2 hours long videos mat, exceptional as always, keep up the good work!
The shear enthusiasm and camaraderie between you and your dad is amazing. I was just as pleased when it started up .
The way you and your dad smile is contagious! ❤ much love from the states! I’m happy to see cool Dad’s like yours are out there!
The engine sound literally is so addictive well done mat and dad and team behind the car cant wait to see it on the road 😁
Stop making wait this long to get updates Matt our lives are miserable without your videos 😔
@@whatdidusay99ginger mat
MATT you will forever look back on the times with your dad and the fun you had together building cars together. Not many people get to bond together like this. Keep cracking on mate.
What an amazing ending to the video, matt looked truly emotional when it kicked into life. Working with your dad most be amazing.
Stoked to see how this whole thing comes together! 🤙
I have followed you from the start, and I love the relationship you and your dad have, you can see it’s genuine and his experience really shows, keep them coming, we’ll done guys.
Just 100% good vibes on this channel since day 1. I've tried other car channels but this is the only one I watch now.
15.40 Tony the Ferrari whisperer. Well done guys this is amzing all the progress done so far! mega kudos to you Mat
You‘re doing big steps. I still remember the Murci Videos were it looked a lot more complicated. Keep up the good work, you (and your dad!) are an inspiration for a whole generation - but do it more frequently. I‘m dying to see your next videos.
Sorry if you get bored of being told how much we all love you but you're an absolute legend, as is your dad, as is Hannah and anyone else who helps out. Highlight of my week watching you 🎉
This channel is not about cars. It is about a father and son. The real value is that when the father is dead and gone, history, memories are forever on this channel.
I started watching Matt Armstrong thinking what a cockend.. But every video I watch, shows the total opposite, you and your team keep producing awesome jobs. I love that you talk about what's going on in a way that everyone can understand, the way you pass technical knowledge on without being boring, seriously. Well done. Subscribed. 👍
Thanks mate 🙌
@@MatArmstrongbmxcome to the lake district sometime 👍
You guys are great. Your dad is really skilled and it's nice to see you guys happy and building cars together
All the hard work is paying off and Matt’s dad, Tony, is now known as blame monkey! Great achievement and love seeing your dad helping you out! 😊
Well done Matt and Matts Dad,Tony but you really should unplug the fuel pump when cranking an engine without sparkplugs installed as the correct air to fuel mixture for a decent explosion is being pumped into your workshop. And there is potential sparks that could ignite that fuel air mix all around an engine and workshop. A petrol explosion is very very dangerous within a workshop.
Yes, it's here, pt4 can't wait to hear it starts 🎉
Mat I just wanna say that I enjoy watching your channel so much. Been watching for absolute ages, and your channel just gets better every time. I love how informative, well edited and enjoyable it is to watch. It's great to have your dad on everytime too. 🥳
The smile on Mat's dad's face when the engine ran first time was pure gold. Great job!
You just rebuilt a ferrari!!! No wonder Tony is grinning ear to ear because no matter how long you have been working on cars it does surely not get much better than that! how many people can honestly say they rebuilt a Ferrari engine and gear box from a box of used parts and it started first time! I don’t even think ferrari could say that haha. Proud father and son moment right there! Best channel on CZcams and actually no better car show on tv either, your energy and enthusiasm matt is awesome!
Happy for you mate. I know that anxiety after a fresh rebuild! Also your dad is awesome. 😁 👍
You two are absolutely amazing, the chemistry between you and the way you figure things out astounds me. I can't wait for the next episode on the Ferrari, plus I've got many of your clips to still view 👍⭐
Seeing you dad's face when the engine started just made my whole day, such good vibes from you guys, love it
Wish I’d had a father that I could have had a relationship with, like the two of you have! It’s a joy to see!
Yes, weekly MA fix 😁! Always a good day!
Mat take a look at your fuel pumps, seems you have the older ones where the housing cracks and causes fire 🔥
Tal about coming a ways from rebuilding a TT on the driveway! AWESOME!
Your dad’s reaction when the car started up was priceless!!!
Epic entertainment, you and the entire team are truly amazing. Love watching your relationship with your dad. Great video, keep em coming. John
Absolutely awesome, loving your series . Keep up the hard work Mat
that conversation with your dad is awasome :) i think everone loves you dad keep up the good work and thank you for awasome videos
The genuine joy is the best bit. It's what makes working on cars worth while. But the projects you take on are next level!!
I wish i could do this kind of projects with my dad!
Killing it man. Keep up the great work and great videos
I loved working on cars with my dad. After he passed I haven’t really found that person that can bring me the same joy of working with. You guys are great.
Aaaah.. that just made me happy cry 20:10 .. engine start ❤❤❤
i love these series, only started watching at the audi recently but its so cool to see how these cars go together and the work you put in, all packaged up in some epic videography that quite calming to watch. You and dad are slaying it ! Hope there many more to come (i will be going back and watching previous builds :P)
I am so hyped to watch this video Mat! Thanks for bringing us awesome content. Keep it up man your killing it❤
