It never ceases to amaze me how far you've come with this car. At times it felt like it would be forever until the 240 was back on the road, but you are truly an inspiration that anything is possible and to never give up. You deserve the world Mike!
this cars story is brilliant and I’m so happy it has been documented for the whole world to see.
Well done, Mike. You are a true living legend in my eyes.
13:30 crazy part about this rebuild is that you did it all at home mostly by yourself that is some serious dedication
I click so fast my thumb goes through my phone 🤳😭😭😭
Lmfao goes to freezer and grabs brand new iphone. ok not so hard this time......
Wish i could had seen it in person, been a long journey but it has been fun to watch thus far. cant wait for more
You calling the car an “undead S13” honestly gave me chills with it sitting behind you fully put together with the multicolor panels. It lives again!
Man was just thinking to myself Mike and Jimmy need to do a collab, then Jimmy just casually in the background while Mike is changing tires! Hell yeah 🤘🏻
It was a long journey but i can proudly say i was here since the very beginning, i cant express how proud i am of you, the fact that you kept going,, great job Mike!
I've never seen this much dedication to a single car. This channel is so underrated
That wall tap was the perfect end to this part of your story.
Seeing you grow throughout the rebuild of your car and then fully send it really made my week.
Keep it real my man, can't wait to see where your journey takes you.
im so glad I got to see the full transformation of this car and learned so much by just watching and following along for this crazy journey
To see the passion you have for your car and not giving up on it is just the staple of what it is to be a true car enthusiast. I teared up watch the montage of clips of you bringing her back from the dead! Man keep doing what youre doing and ill be a subscriber for ever. Me and my 7 year old love your content and wholesome you are! Thanks for being a true car guy and showing my kid what it is to be true to a car that you love!
Why are you up this late 😂. But all in all im glad to see this car doing what it was intended to do again. What a journey man. Glad to be a part of it from the beginning.
no other channel feels like home like this. i've been along for the ride since day one, and this has literally been the most dopamine/seratonin I can possibly farm from car content, or feelgood content in general. ive always told everyone I love that if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything, and you & your story have reinforced that for me now so hard. it is truly amazing how far you have come in just the past year even. i hope you keep being able to build, and grow, and reach awesome heights. i feel like you deserve it. like you seem genuinely good.
cant wait to see what's next! (: 🍒
"If you can shape it in your mind, you will see it in your life" -Prizza Mike
p.s. you are a true inspiration bro. words can't even explain. much love from Los Angeles my friend.
Este canal realmente merece más reconocimiento, es demasiado epico lo que hace Mike
Wall banging first track day back after the build, I definitely call that redemption, you killed it man was so cool seeing this process from what it was to what it is now, you did an amazing job man I'm proud of ya
I still get goosebumps seeing that car when it was smashed. Absolutely amazing Mike, an inspiration to the entire community
Still can't believe it went from a mangled mess to straight and even stronger then before 👌 pure awesomeness
This is insane. Just seeing how far it has come is somewhat emotional and all I have done is watch the videos. I can't imagine the actual feelings. That is one loved s13.
the day is finally here
i've been watching since shortly before the smashed drift event and i can't even put into words how exciting and awesome it is to finally see it drifting again, plus that little recap segment was super cool too
From running on hopes and dreams, to first drift event in a car thats complete again. great milestone🎉
The drone footage + edit of the run with Fran in the car was super dope. Your vids just keep getting better and better man
i'm not gonna lie, that tap HURT me, but it's good to know that this car's immortal!!
showing the real passion we have for cars, you're such a legend man. This was so inspirational. Much love!
you can definitely fix those new dents on the quarter! i truly cannot believe how far this car has come dude. ive been watching every single video since the day that you started fixing this car. i remember i found you on tiktok a few days after you crashed your car and you said you were gonna completely fix it and document the whole thing on youtube and i said “there’s no way” and subscribed immediately. you are a true inspiration to so many people mike and im so grateful that i was able to follow along this journey. hoping one day ill meet you at an event in the future and see your insane work in person. great job as always mike! never gonna stop watching you bro, keep killing it ! 🫶🫡
The story and progress of this car is beautiful! I loved the montage of how it came together. Truly phenomenal.
The power and strenght of the mind can make our dreams come true. You are the living proof of that. Can't wait for the next one. 🙏⚡
The ending montage of the rebuild from start to finish gave me goosebumps! ^^
The best car project series in youtube. And Mike, you're the person who made me love the mechanical work on cars. I want to get a project car and work on it like you. I'm waiting for the new junkyard videos too.
Thats it, that is the peak of all that work, the wall ride, the recap all those hours of work youve put in restoring your car, I wanna do the same and start a project car myself
Ride on dude! 🤙 stay sideways ❤
You literally remade the car from the start, I hadn't realised how much work and love you put in the s13, I've got a new level of respect for you my dude...
its guys like you we need in the Whole of the Automotive scene!
Setbacks.. Adapt overcome. and drive again! thank yuo brother (y)
What a fucking journey I feel lucky to have been able to watch this s13 come back to life you’re an inspiration man I used to have a s14 years ago and now I’m itching to get back in one again
This channel proves that nothing is impossible. I love the channel, and can't wait the new videos. Greeting from Hungary. ❤
Hope people wake up soon.
Y’all are sleeping if you aren’t subscribed 🔥
Glad I could see the journey from start to end.
So satisfying seeing the whole car completed.
Just wanna say I've kept tabs on you and your car since the crash. You've done gods work and im sure you have motivated alot of people out there including myself to not give up on our cars. Awesome work hope you are proud of yourself g
So proud of you man. I’ve been here for the whole journey, and I’m so happy for you.
hell yea feels so good to be back in the passenger seat while you’re drifting the 240! been missing this for sure!! & that drone footage was so sick!
also seeing the recap of the whole process to fix the 240 was so crazy. i forget sometimes how much work you put in all by yourself to accomplish this. super proud of you & looking forward to the next event! 😊
You ROCK!
I had to copy you and make a 'to do list' on my figure 8 car.
man, every time I watch a video, it impresses me more that you took this car down to almost nothing and brought it back to life. SO cool!! 👊
Love how happy franzy looks while she's in the car sliding with you
Cant believe the transformation. This car and mike are what determination looks like
It's so cool being able to watch the amazing progress you have made on this car. I've watched every video from when you got in the wreak all the way up to this video. It's so cool how you were able to bring this car back to life.
Smile on the face says everything. Well done, and ofcourse keep up the great work 🤙
This is truly a comeback story for the history textbooks
I worked on salvage cars for years, I have to say you are smart for working out drilling out spot welds. In the uk when u stick a car incorrectly together it’s called a cut an shut. You did it right imo. I own jigs within the family business and can say you built that car brilliantly
I'm going to miss the videos seeing the car come together piece by piece... so glad you didn't reshell the car, wouldn't have created the same story 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I was a new subscriber just before the accident and have been here for the hole rebuild, I feel like this car has a soul its more than metal, its a icon and I'm so glad you didn't reshell it, much love as always Mike.. positive vibes 🤘🤟
So surreal to see this thing sliding finally! You’re a huge inspiration to me and other car enthusiasts around the world. I hope to slide with you one day in the future man congrats again keep kicking ass!
I have tears in my eyes, so proud of you man 🙏
Been here since the frame pull, and wow have you come a long with your car and channel. You’ve built a very positive community and inspired all of us to tackle the jobs we doubt we can accomplish. Keep it up and can’t wait for the next video!
I was so pleased to see your hard work and spirit is paying off,I did feel oddly emotional watching you and your machine flying around the track it was amazing, thank you so much yet again for the awesome content.
Watching you reread the checklist really shows how a project is never done even if from the viewer perspective it looks perfect. This build has been so fun to watch and learn new things every video since the start. This build is insane and I can't wait to (hopefully) see it in person at an upcoming event. Definitely my favorite build on CZcams. Love you Mike!!
Congrats man! This seems like the peak, but I'm sure you have your eyes on higher heights! Keep it going and never stop sharing your positivity!
Congrats on the rebuild, it's been amazing to see it come back to life, can't wait to see all the progress on the other builds
Yo cuz, I am beyond happy for you getting this car back from the dead. Your commitment, drive and dedication have been fun to watch over the last year. Keep getting after it!!
Absolutely love the little recap. Made me proud to have seen the whole build. This is the coolest thing ever ❤️
The edit from before and after is insane so happy for you ❤
They way she looked at you after the first ride along after ages was so cute, even before you first finished your run, stunning job on the car ma broski 👏
BRO!!!! You have come sooooooooo far. That was the awesomest vid EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEER. You have done well. We have followed you throughout your journey and it was awesome.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Crazy to think I've watched this series from basically beginning to end, from Elmarks to the first event back. Good Stuff Mike!!
so glad i found this channel during this build, super stoked to see the finished car! such a huge accomplishment congrats mike!
What a great Video. The "timelaps" from rebuilding the car was so cool to see
Man such a crazy journey to watch, props bro. Lots of respect for you and the build!
the car content is great but the sound tracks are what keep me coming back really nail the vibes
I guess this is the whole rebuild done? Been watching the build playlist at every chance I had for a couple of weeks now. Turned out amazing! I guess it's time for me to go back and watch the initial build now. Very curious about the work truck Tegs too as well as the 300ZX and of course the continued adventures of this thing. I guess Franzys 240 is documented as well? These aren't even my favorite kinds of cars but you are my favorite kind of content creator and car culture shouldn't have "camps" separating us!
What a boss! I've been playing with and working on cars my whole life and I'm almost twice your age. I wouldn't have been able to do what you've done. Some of the donor shells were arguably in better condition than yours was after the crash and re-shelling it definitely would've been the route I'd have taken here. Or just get another car. Huge props man! This is a once in a lifetime achievement for most car guys.
First saw the crash photos on Instagram, then a while later saw the first repair videos on CZcams...been following and to see it running again is impressive and has motivated me to attempt a build. Might not be to the same scale but I am motivated still.
Shout out from Zambia 🇿🇲
Gotta protect her an sick drifting dude an that turbo sweeet tho the car was wrecked her heart an soul was still good an strong im so happy for how it turned out 😍
Just shows how well to bulit that car back together you sent it on the dirft and it held up so well congratulations brother hard work pays off
Badass Castrol livery supra: "yeah it's got some parts" Lego car: "YOOOOO LEGO CAR, LEGO ON THE CAR"
After 1-2 years of blood, sweat, & tears for rebuilding of your beloved 240sx, finally! You’ve made it. Congrats, she’s back in action. This series motivates us, as the subscribers & audiences. Also, your quote in one of the video that is part of the 240sx rebuild series + one Facebook post (?) was nice. It applies most of the lives, including myself.
Also2x, I’m looking forward of the “240zx’s” progress. It’s interesting to see a 300zx z32 was powered by a KA engine that results a much bigger space on its engine bay.
Once again, congrats and keep the story alive. 😃👏👏👏🎆
I'm so glad to see you have your pride and joy back, you've come really far man keep it up!
This is my favourite build on CZcams something about this resonates with me then seeing a high HP supra or lambo build tbh this is true car guy story
This is seriously a new chapter now. I've never been so excited to see a car be worked on. Keep kicking ass
it feels like an ending to some epic anime plot. li8ke a whole series was done. waiting on season 2!
Dude I've been watching pretty much since the beginning and I didn't even remember how mangled the car was. This was a hell of a ride and I really enjoyed being a part of it thanks to your CZcams channel. Keep it coming dude.
I’ve been with u since the very start. Btw make more content with franzy never give up and u finally drove the 300zx
I just hit a milestone on my drifting achievements and I'm too emotional right now, but man... When you ended the drift event part of the video and started showing the footage back when the 240 was crashed, I'm not gonna lie, I cried a lot...
I've been here since the t-bone video, watching every video as soon as it comes out, watching your struggles and challenges, watching how you overcome everything to keep the dream alive!
As a drifter myself who also built/modified my own car, I see alot of my struggles in your videos, and thanks to you, I figured that I can make stuff work out if I keep focused, one step at a time and keep progressing no matter what! I had to let some other things pass, didn't saw my friends much in the last few years but just like you, now having conquered a milestone, it feels truly magical and it did worth it!
Thanks for sharing all your experiences, for being this humble and positive person, you did changed a big part of my life for the better Mike and I can't thank you enough!!! Keep it up bro, you f*cking got this!!!
I’m so proud of how far you’ve came man and I’m so glad I can see how far your dreams go keep it up man!
I must say it has been a journey, seeing the car now and how it was back then it feels like it has been reborn
mike, i watch your channel everyday with my morning coffee. i love that you preach a positive message of keeping these cars on the road regardless of how much work it is to do that. steel is forgiving as you allow it to be. man this car has been through the ringer and is still clean as fuck and competing harder than ever. your fan base is now huge, your content is the shit. keep them coming bro we are all hear supporting you every step of the way!!!!!
Love this story i can just imagine all the sleepless nights figuring out how to move on forward to disassemble and reassemble.. great job awesome learing curve and determination
Been watching the rebuild since day 1. So awesome to see the progress! Definitely feel you should save that quarter and repair it since it's the last one left, oh and you should totally go with that blue color like you mentioned before, havving the dark blue would be a great offset to the chrome wheels. Keep up the awesome work!
That wall tap got me jazzed
Much love from Romania! Saw all your videos since 30k subs and inspired me to rebuild my Miata chassis and engine by myself. Peace and good ride ! ❤
I have been following the build from the start and enjoyed it every time a new post is on about the s13
It's wild seeing the footage from the frame rack again. You're running and beautiful 240 is a testament to your attitude, commitment, and skill dude. So happy for you
All that hard work finally paying off! Congrats on bringing it back to life!
Man this is so hype! Been with you on your journey since day one and to see it now is incredible. Truly an inspiration man 🤙🏽
Awesome Mike you should be so proud, as I've said before you've inspired me to rebuild a favorite bike I've wanted for yrs, and now building a chop so thank you n keep up the cooooool posts
This whole series was better than anything on Netflix, it's insane how far you've come with this car when 99% of people would have given up
man you're so awesome and inspiring as well I really enjoy watching your contents cant wait to see you repaint the car.. man its like adding sprinkles to a desert haha but for real your videos make me forget that im tired from work im excited for another junkyard videos much love idol Ill support you 'till you reach your dream🤙
I’ve never been more happy to see somebody rebuild a car this was an amazing series and good luck on the rest of them prizza fam forever we all happy for you❤🤘🏾
Amazing my friend. All that effort and belief in you was so motivating and satisfying to watch. One of my fav channels ever, period. Cheers and kisses from Greece.... Keep it real!
Congrats Mike! I'm happy for ya man and I'm glad that I was able to watch your journey for your car!!
🎉🎉🎉great job Mike,awesome to see u driving and pushing her limits 👏👏👏👏
The little montage was such a nice touch. Can't believe how far this car has come.

Hey, little tear of joy in my eyes.
Well done Michael, well done.
Proud of you for pushing through and never giving up.
If your ever in Sydney hit me up. I have a 500kw sequential 180sx that I’d be more then happy to let you have a play in.
And now it’s bed time, finally we can both rest.
One thing you forgot to add to the list is to never end adding to the list.
Many years of joy and memories to come.
Congratulations on your hard work, thank you for your enthusiasm and effort.
Some of us have been with you since day one and we believed in you and knew you would accomplish what you had set out to accomplish.
Great achievement my man👏👏👏👏👏👏
Defently
My favorite too! its like a Hero story.
