    I came across this gorgeous dark blue #mercedes #amg GT on copra salvage auction with what appeared to be front end damage with the airbags deployed which seemed like a very doable repair. But when we went to collect it we very quickly realised this was not the case it was much much worse.
    This #mercedesbenz has damage all over the entire car but also was hiding some secret damage underneath the bonnet which was the last thing I wanted to find...

    You need to find the car that hit Rashfords Rolls Royce and repair that. Guaranteed views plus you get to wind matt up.

    Come on Chris, what you have achieved already in life, this build is a walk in the park. No negativety, full on positiverty. Engine good. Everything else is fixable or replaceable. Beautiful looking cars these. You've got great friends around you to pick you up and support you, like you've done with Mat. Just make sure you don't work long hours. Get plenty of sleep and Yfood when you need it. Maybe you should of done car vertical check lol. Now let's smash this build out of the park. Your fans are all here for you😉😎🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

    That damaged front bar goonzquad are doing a similar build on their channel and they have managed to get hold of that same part from germany so check them out and see if they can put you in contact with the company they got it from
    They said on their channel that you can’t buy it from the Mercedes dealer as it a structural part unless you are certified but there in America so not sure if the same thing applies for uk but good luck with the build man👍🏽

    You got this Chris come on. Felt it when you was shaking there mate, the emotional connection and anxiety I get with you guys doing cars is incredible and the amount of excitement it brings me when all falls in place can’t be described in words. If you were looking for a positive word to go through the week with men, this is it. Love you guys, No Diddy

    • @andrewpemberton7295
      @andrewpemberton7295 Před měsícem

      I was going to say the same thing, that bar is not too bad to replace, it doesn't need a jig if it's just that bar, not the chassis leg👍

    Definitely going to be another good unique build just like the X3M Chris. Keep your spirits up my man. Always remember at least you have the balls to venture projects like this. The rest of us just drool in envy from the side line. Can't wait for more of the X3M, would be a dream car for me and the Merc is on another level too. Looking forward to more videos on it, as it's something completely new and no one else is pulling one to bits.

  • @michaeljamesgoderick5805
    @michaeljamesgoderick5805 Před měsícem

    Hey Chris, just remember to keep the ballast boxes from the back of the headlamps if they are not damaged as you can re-fit them and not re-code the car. You and Ethan are an awesome team and what a great, great machine, and it is blue!!! I have been through all of this with an R172 SLK - rebuilt from the ground-up. I can't wait for the next video :)
    Addendum - I reckon something or something has gone through the screen!

    I always find Mercedes Benz rude, currently have an a45 and the service I’ve had with them has been awful down south. Now I’ve got to the point I think I’ll get rid of my car just so I don’t have to deal with them

  • @martinstone3662
    @martinstone3662 Před měsícem +2

    Mercedes-Benz with Keyless feature, starts either with the key in the slot and you use only the key or the key needs to be out of it's slot and you use the push start button, it doesn't work using both at same time. I recommend that until the build is finished to use the key slot to start it, believe me.

From the initial optimism to the "oh no" moments where you discovered the hidden damage, you had me glued to the screen. Huge congrats on getting the engine started though, that's a massive win and a real turning point!
