Imagine just sliding in a Jay Leno collaboration just like that 😮💨
My thoughts exactly! You two sure are making your way through all the best car collectors....(Jay Leno, Richard Hammond, James May....) I'm so proud of both of you!
Back to work on the 720 😂
Guaranteed he's doing 20x more in a day than you
Such an epic achievement hanging out with Jay. Can’t wait to see the next one.
The battery. Can only be shipped ground..
@notfiveoyup i used to work in customs clearance here in uk and brokeage regulations are crazy
I love that you didn't advertise that Jay would be in the video and only saved it for those of us who watched till the very end. That was a class act move and it showed Jay that you weren't just using him to get views. You guys are both true McLaren efficionados and it was fun to watch you guys be together. I can't wait to see him drive it when it's finished
I love how much Jay loves talking to these car CZcams guys about cars. He's the most genuine car guy I've ever seen
He gets more love from the car world than he ever got from the comedy world
When he quit the Tonight Show I thought the car thing was just a way to keep himself in front of the public. Turns out he really loves doing the work of restoration even though he has his own crew. Just don't get how he accidentally burned his face. Was he making a mistake or was there sabotage? Some of the Tavarish commenters have suddenly turned on him with this video for meritless reasons.
@Castor Chua Lets be honest, comedy was the means to get to his real love; the automotive world
@J Scott Yeah, he's a car guy at heart for sure... but I thought he was pretty good on the tonight show and he's got real comedian chops. I never thought he deserved the backlash from the Conan stuff. Glad he found his happy place in the end.
Such an incredible video ...
Everybody worked up over you hanging with Jay. I’m happy af to see you showcase the talented guy from electrified garage. Seriously knowledgeable dude and in 5/10 years he’ll be one of the most important forms of mechanic in existence.
haha that is Rich Rebuilds - he is famous on CZcams and was more famous than Tavarish years ago
You don't know rich rebuilds?😅
Damn!
Where has the laughing emoji gone? ……
Found it now to get it on some silly statements instead of a daft thumbs up or down!😂😂😂😂😂
Hard to complete with Jay Leno.
Battery is in good hands.
This is by far the best content on CZcams right now, I hope this channel blows up to 5-6 million subs. Freddy deserves it for having the cahones to attempt something like this. What a freaking savage!
*cojones
the best content on CZcams by far?
you do know people have different interestd don't you? this is a tiny corner of CZcams for car geeks, some guy fixing a car
@Gruunt in that tiny corner hes definetly making the best content rn, atleast in his class IMO
The video you never expected
cool
Szuper
Thumbs up
good
Nice
Rich is brilliance. Such great representation. Keep being amazing sir.
Dude this made me get emotional. Freddy legit started from the bottom, came from nothing & now his $2M P1 that he & his team built from the ground up is going to be on the Jay Leno show. Holy shit. Freddy just leveled up his game. Big Time.
Youre all our hero mi hermano!
Man, Jay is really such a down to earth guy. Wish him more years to come
This endeavour is crazy... Absolutely nothing compares to this... I'm not sure what else to call it if this is not the definition of perseverance. Sir, you deserve everything nice that happens to you.
You got a gift 🎉🎉
Jack is in this special gear for his protection... Cut to everyone standing around Jack in shorts and t-shirts. :)
🤣 I laughed when i saw that lol. Carbon fiber dust in lungs = bad
😂😂😂😂😂😂
OMG!
I take more precautions when working with MDF let alone carbon fibre 😬
@Discophil Develop a case of 'McLaren lungs' -- but yeah, maybe they need to lose the 'oh my gawd this is so valuable' anxiety to actually work on this stuff and not get stuck with indecision.
I would have to imagine Jay, and every P1 owner, being so appreciative to see the inside of that P1 engine. The upgraded rods and replacement parts from the rubbing are a must do! The battery rebuild with Rich is mind blowing. The custom body work is epic. I remember the video with the poll on if you should buy this, and I knew that this project would be an untouchable level of accomplishment and reward for you. I really wish you all the best, it's great watching this journey of a rebuild!
You got a gift 🎉🎉
Great progress! I really love what Jay said, "at least you possess it even if you're not driving it." I have cars in my collection I have not got to yet and they don't run but I still enjoy owning them immensely. It's amazing that he can still have that perspective from where he's sitting. What a great guy!
Yes, agreed. Jay really does come across as so very very genuine, with down to earth feelings and understanding. Money does NOT appear to have had it's evil way with him, at least!
Love that the window moved! Such a good thing. Hope the best! Love to see Mr. Leno rolling with you!
This series is absolutely incredible.Having a front row seat to bringing THIS car back to life is honestly one of the most incredible things I've ever watched.
Poor Jay is worried about sandy wheel bearings going 250 😂 good on Jay for looking out!!
Love to see Tavarish and Jay just talking. When Jay mentioned he enjoys watching the series, I even was taken back, couldn't imagine the feeling Freddy had at that moment!
it was insane.
It reminded me of the moment he had when he first bought the Aston and was just sitting in the car in disbelief. So stoked for you Freddy!
What.thee.heck ~ Why didn't you drive Jay's P1? ..is coming up?
"When Jay mentioned he enjoys watching the series, I even was taken back,"
-Everyone likes watching a train wreck🤣
@Tavarish Man i told you the same since the FIRST episode. DITCH the electric motors. They are useless and are very heavy. Also i would make it natural aspirated and manual, a real F1 succesor. Props to the electrician.
This build just keep giving more and more gems....Rich and then Jay in a single episode!!!! When you level up...Freddy sure Levels UP!!! Top stuff by all involved!
Cool series. I've never seen your channel before but what an awesome first impression and journey. Thanks for the inspiration.
Just when you think he’s done tearing down the car there is more. This car has so much tech I didn’t even realize. So cool seeing rich rebuilds and Jay cameos.
Totally awesome content! I’ve been following your channel for some time as a car person myself who works on my own vehicles you show it can be done. I Absolutely can’t believe the dedication and effort you and your team puts into these projects or builds. Continue the great work.
You got a gift 🎉🎉
Massive props to Jay Leno for his humility and encouragement, but also concern for Freddy. Good guy 👏
It’s what make Leno so adored by petrol heads. Plenty of rich people have a massive collection of dream cars, but Leno is just a petrol head; he loves cars and wants to talk with other people about his love of cars, like Freddie, he is “one of us”, not some uppity rich dude.
💯
He did a cameo with donut too - absolute hero
@deaks25 right. he owns 200+ cars simply because he friggin LOVES cars. and he gets them out and drives them. thats the point behind his garage, people he has to keep all those cars going. for me, that's win win. he gets to enjoy all those cool machines, and his team gets paid to mess with some of the coolest cars on the planet
Leno is repenting for all the shitty things he did during his television career.
I'm so glad to see all the progress. Looks good so far. Very few people would be willing to even take on a expensive P1 project. I was surprised and delited to see Rich from Rich Rebuilds. Please keep up the good work. Thank you.
I been watching this from the beginning, and hell yeah on the progress! This motivates me further to complete my Alfa Romeo restomod builds! Best of luck on all of your projects; Also very excited to see what's next for the 996 turbo🙂
it was so good seeing Jay Leno, Rich and a Mighty Car Mods shirt all in one episode epic
This was great! Everything from working with the carbonfibre clamshell to learning about the composition of the battery and then to top it off with a visit to Jay's garage. Fantastic! Thanks again.
Seeing Jay talking about how much an inspiration Freddie is was absolutely amazing to see
When a legend speaks highly about you. That makes you legendary!!!
Love this series
Awesome
The hard part about this is that now he cant screw up 😮
It's great to see jay out and about more with the next generation of car enthusiasts. He's been a meeting with a lot of youtubers lately.
No kidding holy cow.
I absolutely love how many people you are getting involved in this build. It really is fasinating to see lots of different talented people showing their skillz!
You can always tell how heavy something is by how many steps they take
Kudos to you for giving by a motoring legend. Be passionate about your skills, your passion, and your drive to accomplish the unthinkable. Congratulations to you. True McLaren aficionados and enjoyed seeing you together.
That man tells it how it is, the amount of wisdom in what he is telling you is nearly incomprehensible at our age. Pretty damn cool to get to collaborate with him!
Jay and Tavarish just casually chatting in front of an F1, Epic. Love this series!
P1. F1 costs like 10x as much
@Cole McCleery there's an F1 in the background...
@Cole McCleery39:25 Freddie literally points out the F1
I know right! Would have like to have seen the F1 to be honest😢
Glad to see Leno doing well!! Grew up watching him. Can't wait til this P1 is on the road!!
I can’t believe that Rich said remove the hybrid system!…. But I completely agree! It would be awesome to see how fast it would be with a built motor and all the extra weight gone!👍👍
Watched all the series so far in the past few days after seeing your (very entertaining) chat with Jonny Smith. Great work so far, best of luck with this Freddy (and your helpers)!
OMG, I can't believe Brian is helping you with this build! Could not have chose a better dude for the job! Really looking forward to what you guys manage to do!
Best car rebuilt on the internet! Especially since you aren’t cutting corners and plan to make it even better!
Speaking of which do you plan to rebuild the battery or even get the upgraded one from the company you visited in a previous video?
After hearing Jay's joke about his P1 being salt free, you definitely need a custom license plate that says "Low Sodium" in some variation haha!
NA CL
I agree with this comment
SLTLYF1
NaCl aren 😂
@Rafael C.NacLaren for the win! We need the T-shirts Freddy
Brian is the reason why I decided to learn paint/ body work & made the jump to paint my 75 911s. So happy to see him pop up on here.
❤ty!
I love this channel so much. Seriously. Damn fine entertainment gentlemen.
Next level every episode! Jay Leno and the goal to beat the Speedtail's top speed - we are with you for the ride!
There's absolutely nothing wrong with being a neophyte and a pioneer at the same time. Good luck Freddie I know you can do it.
Love this series Freddie! You should take all the left over unusable pieces and cut them down to put in merch bundles to get some of the losses back.
jay is such a gem! glad he's recovered from his harrowing year, we really dont need to be losing this guy any time soon!
I'll be devastated when he leaves us. He's such a nice dude and a genuine petrol head.
@boundish1nice? lol no, but a petrol head? yes
@savantHow is it, exactly, that Jay isn't nice?
I agree, I been watching Jay for the better part of 15 years or so and I enjoy every bit of car related content he brings out. You can tell he's passionate about it and that's what counts. Ofcourse, we're all a bit jealous of his collection he got going on but we're certainly not more jaelous then happy for the man
i'm from Australia and it's so cool to see Jack wearing a Mighty Car Mods shirt. hope you can all come over some day and do a colab with them. plus some meet and greets hopefully? lol. BTW didn't you go and see a battery specialist earlier in the build?
Amazing video... to get to meet someone so admired by the whole petrolhead community, with such a huge following, and vast collection of incredibly interesting cars to match... Jay Leno was SO lucky to meet Tavarish!
I enjoy seeing Tavarish and Jay converse. I was astounded when Jay remarked how much he likes the show; I couldn't even begin to understand how Freddy must have felt.
Love this content !! The collaborations he's using to rebuild this P1 is second to none !!
seeing rich and Tavarish together makes me laugh so much.
My favorite youtube channel, hands down. Very excited to see this bad boy finished. Getting Jay to drive it is insane!!! Very happy for you and your trusty crew, Freddy. You're definitely an inspiration. Keep going!
Can confirm that Ricardo made the BMS for the P1 battery. I've worked on the later hardware revisions of it when preparing it for a 1500 Vdc nominal traction system.
As a side note, the difference between the P1 and P1 GTR battery was entirely software. The hardware of them was identical.
Wait I thought the GTR battery was lighter
@_𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪__𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪𒐪_ according to some of the team from the project when they were still around they turned the current and temperature limits up further, rated the battery for fewer cycles and reduced the warranty.
Hopefully it would be less than $150k.
@Jason Majere oh, no, that's about what they would should probably cost. The development, testing, certification and production NRE was, I reckon, 10x that figure. Everyone's got to make profit, the component cost of the batteries isn't small and you're only making a few hundred of them. Then when you're talking replacements, if it has to be built to order, it'll always cost more for a single unit. It kinda /has/ to be expensive to balance the books.
@Hooskworks I understand that, but the economics of having it made should of been worked out into the original production run. Any more made is extra. It’s like that was the original cost but we are still going to charge that because we can.
Thank you Tavarish! I stumbled on this project and remember you from the Car Trek series. I'm learning so much. Interested to see where you land on the battery...UK or Rich's rebuild. Love how Rich breaks the complex into simple terms: power, logic, and the tip to get the communication protocols/info from another P1...maybe Jay Leno? Can't wait...thanks again
Great episode. It’s amazing what you are doing to this car. Can’t wait to see the car finished
Great update! What a surreal moment (as you described it) when Jay says he likes watching your channel. I remember when I started following you with your Gallardo project. Seeing you here is surreal for me! It also inspires me to keep working on my channel too! 👍
right now, I hope this channel blows up to 5-6 million subs. Freddy deserves it for having the cahones to attempt something like this. What a freaking savage!
This project is insane... Nothing, nothing comes close to this... If this is not the definition of perseverance, I don't know what is... Sir you deserve all teh good that comes your way, you are truly an inspiration...
You got a gift 🎁
Freddie is the only person on CZcams that drops Jay Leno 37 minutes into the video and doesn’t put it in the title, love your work man!
This P1 series is interesting, but the shenanigans of yall doing this is gold😂
From watching you on car trek to doing this like Jay Leno said it gives us technicians hope we can do more than we give ourselves credit when it comes to these high end manufacturers
was never into the late night thing but when leno's talking about cars or stories about cars etc, he's a fascinating dude
This video was interesting, entertaining and fun. Loved the appreciation from Jay and the reaction of Eddi.
Not only is Jay very humble/kind, but he is brilliant AND a realist! Refreshing!
It’s good to see that Tavarish wore the right shoes to move a battery.
I was clenching my toes for him 🥲
Safety flops loaded
Rule #1 about flip flops ya can't walk backwards in them, but hey Im sure his were steel capped?
Surprised Rich didn't join him.
Rich and Jay in the same episode? This build simply keeps dishing out more and more jewels! Freddy definitely advances as you level up! A+ work from everyone involved!
Great channel, loving the content keep it coming👍cut whats left up into little cubes, hold a little competition and x amount of winners will get a tiny bit of a P1😉
I can’t wait to see the finish product on this and I know this car is probably already getting put together.
Do not underestimate the praise given to you by a motoring legend. He spoke from the heart about your skill, your passion, and your drive to accomplish the unimaginable... and in turn inspire others to do the same. I know you've had some stumbles, but this REALLY is a huge moment for you. Congrats Tavarish.
Ok, possibly your best video ever! Thank you for charging ahead (pun intended) and can’t wait to see her when she is done.
From the days writing for Jalopnik to now having Jay Leno talking cars together. Definitely have come a long way.
The car battery man gives me chills with how knowledgeable he is .
That guy battery-ies
Batteries*
Hes got a channel - richrebuilds
Edit: he has similar content to tavarish
If only he would have mentioned his channel, we would know so much more. Thank you humble car battery man!
He was also on JRE podcast, he was famous for rebuilding a Tesla. Crazy story.
Love that you brought in rich rebuilds!!
Great episode! In the age of CZcams shorts only Freddy can have you glued your seat for 43 mins.
This is still the most amazing build ever on CZcams. Love it!
Love how the McClaren is turning out. Would be dope if you could paint the car whatever color you want then when it rains outside or when you wash the car, it exposes the carbon fiber on the P1.
absolutely love to see so many of my favorite creators come together for one project!!
Can we just point out how SURGICAL Jack is with a freaking sawzall? That's insane!
I know rite!
You should make little key chains out of the old buddy. I would totally buy a piece. Your making history keep it up
What a great person Rich is. Really nice to listen to.
Good for you Freddy actually made me think about I think the first vid I personally saw was the cheapest twin turbo lambo a long time ago so warmed my heart to see u now standing next to jay Leno talking about your p1s 👏🏽
It's like an All-Star game every time you upload. Always surrounded by knowledgeable and passionate automotive enthusiasts from all walks willing to help you on this journey.
What an insane undertaking, much respect to you for not having given up already.
I'm glad to see Tavarish is wearing his safety sandals 😂
With extra toe protection!
What we need now is Rose Anvil cutting and testing those sandals!
Dammint I was about to write that!
Freddy, you channel is my favourite on youtube. Thank you for making a great show, i did hear near the end of the vid you talked about a divorce. I hope things are all okay for you buddy. You bring a lot of happiness and entertainment to a lot of people on youtube. What goes around comes around. Thank you.
YO! Thanks for making another video. Have been ready for it. Keep working hard Tavarish!
Great Video. Hopefully you will sort out the battery issue soon. Await the next part with interest.😄👍
How cool is it to know that Jay Leno can be counted as one of your subscribers? Extremely cool. That will be a cool episode to see when the P1 goes to Jay Leno’s garage. Looking forward to it.
Good to see you in much better spirits. Best wishes!
Absolutely love it. I’ve loved watching your channel for the past few years and you never disappoint. Then you bring out Jay Leno my mind was blown. Keep it going and God Bless.
The reaction on Freddy’s face when Leno said he watches his channel regarding the P1 was priceless. Touching moment for Freddy. Good for you, dude.
I noticed the same. Really happy for this guy.
Paint society is great at what he dose and glad to be seeing this man on this project am a big fan of this man learn alot from this man
Top notch content! Can’t wait for the next episode!
Dude. You are inspirational more than you know. Keep it up.
Great video, loved seeing Jay also, such a great guy and amazing garage, just the background shot where you were filming he has so many cool cars.
Project seems to be coming along nicely, that 160k battery pack had me laughing hope there is someone out there that can build a replacement, those lithium phosphate cells iirc don't explode like normal lithium ions which is why the pack is somewhat still together. Also tend to last a long time would be interesting to try charging them in a safe environment to see if any can still work.
Not that you should use them again but would be curious to see how durable they really are.
The way Tavarish gets emotional on 37:10 is just amazing to see. Great project!
Watching the battery tear down was like witnessing an alien dissection. Love it! Keep it coming, Freddy!
way toooo much time wasted on that !
@rudi knapenHow is it time being wasted? It’s literally one of the most important parts on the car. It runs all the electronics, powers the hybrid system to add more power, improves shifting and more. If you aren’t interested in the battery tech portion of the car well good news theirs still plenty of other things that need some TLC and to be built so you’ll have plenty more videos you’ll enjoy. So instead of complaining about something that didn’t interest you, how about instead be supportive of this build because this is a once in a lifetime thing. You are never going to see a P1 getting rebuilt and improved like this ever again.
I kept waiting for it to blow up in Rich's face even though I knew there was basically zero chance of that since it had already exploded.
Tavarish always has the bangers , been following you since the gallardo, I think you need to bring that baby back to life
Looking forward to more progress and the next car trek
Ive watched all 9 episodes in two days after finding the Pimp my Ride episode. I have to say your entire chanel is a complete gem!!❤😂
I saw your face a couple of times, complete amazement and disbelief that you were being watched by Jay Leno, and to any car guy he is a hero of cars for his passion and really driving them! Man what a feeling that must have been. We are blessed to see these parts of your life and make them enter ours. Thank you for sharing! 🎉
