REDLINE REBUILDS - bit.ly/3bNdVmN
We spend hundreds of hours tearing apart old engines, machining and obsessively cleaning the parts, and reassembling it all. We exhaustively chronicle every step along the way with thousands of photos, then boil it down to a fast-paced but incredibly detailed time-lapse video. Share the satisfaction of the finish and the first fire-up!
BARN FIND HUNTER - bit.ly/2WgjGTg
Tom Cotter literally wrote the book(s) on barn finds, starting with The Cobra in the Barn. Tom travels North America in his 1939 Ford Woodie Wagon, searching for forgotten classics in barns, backyards, dusty garages, and scrapyards and meeting the fascinating characters who open the barn doors for him and tell him their stories.
WHY I DRIVE - bit.ly/2WhLPtv
Deep dive profiles of owners of interesting cars. Owners narrate, sharing their particular passion, with evocative on-the-road footage. We take you to their homes and garages, showing you firsthand the turn of the key, the first high-rpm upshift, and their favorite roads and destinations, whether it’s the local racetrack, ice cream parlor, or canyon road.

We need to see a hour of this somebody needs to do a documentary on Mike Nichols

I hope he has someone to pass his knowledge on down to as this art needs to be preserved and continued for generations to come.

Woodwork and auto resto...what a life talent. That’s art!

Tom Cotter this is another great story about a great man, Mike Nickels. When I see this man and his work a proverb comes to mind. Proverbs 22:29 Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men. Thank you Tom and Mike.

Good to see that art of building woody's is still around. I bet that man forgot more about cars then most people know. Long live the workmens craft of building.

Mike Nickels is a mighty nice guy. This interview must have been a pleasure.

White Ash wood. I wonder what will eventually be rarer, the wood or the cars.
