Still watching from Washington State. The journey starts with the first mile and there will be hills to climb so if you need a push just reach out and we will support you and Esther. Like, share and communicate with other car people. And buy some of their products 👍 Just went on line and purchased a shirt. I’ll be proud to show your colors at my next car show.

Yep, North Alabama will always be here

Despite the severe fire and all the ordeal that follows, you take the time to teach a little boy to do mechanics and to drive a pickup truck. The look on his face when it's time to shift is absolutely priceless. Love this! ❤

Its really great to see you smile again. Taking Ryder out for a blast around the field was priceless. He will always remember that day. You both had some fun.

I agree with what you said 110%

Nice to see Ryder learning to drive on the property. He had a smile a mile wide. Keep it up guys!

Good to see Pablo supervising the cleanup! BTW, the look on Ryder's face when he was about to take the wheel - PRICELESS! Continue to be well - you're an inspiration!

The "hands on culture" is a giving community that understands what makes us who we are. It's not just about what you have but what you can give to others that is missing in this world today. We're all just visiting this place and what time we have here and what we learned from it is our legacy to pass that on to the next generation and it's priceless! 🤠

Great to see you giving your grandson driving lessons. Not many kids get that experience. You and Ester keep up the positive attitude.

Brent it is so good seeing you working on a vehicle again. Just cool To see the cup holders also. Best wishes to you and yours. OMG! Look at the smile on Ryders face.

Well if you guys didn't know you have to know now, Everyone loves you guys and we don't want to lose you guys and your great content. I would love to see another 4 door truck build.

Ryder's smile say's it all. Couple more years I expect to see his KZread channel. Halfass Kustoms Jr.

Watching Ryder wrenching alongside Brent is heartwarming, seeing Ryder learning to drive was AWESOME.

Passing knowledge on to the youngsters,really cool.The world needs more of this.💯

Man - I'm so proud of your family, friends, and fans! I'm proud to be a fan! $90K!

The smile on his face when he dumped the clutch and that old truck took off, every kid should be so lucky. Really anxious to see Austin's Buick too. You 2 are doing great and I'm honored to have you share some of the goodness you bring, its awesome! Thank you for your time. Cheers from Maine

Hello Brent, it's really great to see you working on the things you like. Your truly an inspiration, such a great and positive man. Wishing you and Esther all the very best. 👍👍👍

tools in the buckets, use vinegar. Love the show ,stay positive, keep moving forward, its going to get better !

Once Ryder gets the hang of driving that old Dodge, he will be able to drive anything!

So cool to watch you teaching Ryder the old manual tranny. It brought back memories of me when I was 13 or 14. It was a Plymouth Valliant with three on the tree. BTW, car guys and gals are the best ever fo sho!❤

Brent I see bonding with Ryder gave you the energy to smile and slow down. My dad would come get me many times and the neighbor's to repair bikes and lawn mowers. The driving lesson made me cry, no matter how scared I was his calm actions and laughing with me made my day. He told me many times it made bad things better for him to face and solve. Excellent video Sir.

I'm glad you're working on stuff again I wish you and your family the best

You two have such a great positive mental attitude after all that you’ve been through, keep those great smiles and laughs there, I love seeing them and hearing them ! I haven’t gone anywhere I still look for the new drops and I always will !

Welcome back, you never left us and we won't leave you, Ryder's truck drive was great, we all remember learning the clutch, man that brought back great memories THANKS. Your 1958/59 will be a great build, we all wish we had one!

That was so cool to Ryder's face when got the truck off and rolling.

Driver's Ed.. Always best to learn on something with a challenge.. Once conquered, any others will be "elementary my dear Watson" . Thanks for taking us along for the ride and sharing your reorganization and Summer Rides👍

It was fun watching you and Rider just having fun driving around.. 👊👊👊

The smile on the young man's face when he was driving the truck was priceless 👍👍👍

Brent glad to see you back working on different car/trucks It's what you need to move on !! This was an other GREAT video seeing you teaching the young fellow It's all good seeing the smiles! Enjoy the rest of your May two four week end !!

you dont just build trucks and cars brent. you have built a great community here mate.

Hugs to the wife ! She did a good job of keeping ya built up together

It's so awesome to see a young man learning how to work with his hands. And making those memories with grandpa. Priceless. ❤ oh, and welcome back. 😂

Thank you for taking us on this roller-coaster of a journey . Love , life and eternal happiness to you .

Fun to see the driving lessons, it made me remember my own first attempts way back in antiquity. He'll get the hang of it eventually...

Ryder did well with the clutch, he,s a fast learner, a chip off the old block as they say, its great to see both of you coming out of all this Tragedy and the new little shop taking shape.

I can’t wait until this gets all done. And the only good I see is the outbuildings getting sorted. Great job Brent. Cheers.

Teaching Rider how to use the clutch brings back really good memories.

Shipping containers are a cheap solution for storage so I’m told . If you could find a couple of them to put along side your new old work shop that might be a good temporary solution .

Was great seeing you two drive around the yard, brought back all kinds of memories 👍 good to see ypu laughing again Brent

Nice to see Ryder out there helping you with things Brent. He seems like a great kid..

Ryder, good to see you more helping your grandpa. Grandpa has great teaching abilities, and you will learn much, not just about cars and trucks but about important things like his patience, kindness, and joy his for life. Hope to see more of you working with your grandpa.

Brent and Esther... take some time to yourselves and just enjoy each other 😊 Hope you've been having a very blessed weekend!!!

Really cool to see you doing what you love again and smiling and having a laugh , thank you for letting me be apart of this wonderful community

I really enjoyed this episode! It had a little bit of everything. Some cleaning, some rearranging, some planning, some tinkering, and the most fun, some driving lessons! The smile on his face was priceless when you hopped out and he slid into the driver's seat. Just awesome!

Glad the shop is up and running. Super awesome Ryder wants to learn kids now days to busy with other things to want to learn how to turn wrenchs. Think its really cool your showing him the ropes, sure looks like he wants to learn. Keep up the great content.

Great to see rider, jumping in, he watches to learn on first time. then he tries to do the job, seams to be able to get right in and do what needs to be done. Be very proud of this young man.

It's so cool to see you teaching your grandson how to do all this stuff and teaching him how to drive those old trucks and heavy equipment. Very cool 👌

Great to see you bouncing around with the patience of a saint Brent. Letting Ryder have a bit of a rip in the old truck is priceless. I must admit I still shed a tear when Esther snuck in to help you end the vid. Bless you both.

It's nice to see you smiling and laughing again Freddie boy.

Spending time with grandchildren is priceless cherish every moment, memories are made. Never know when you may loose them.

Yahoooo ! Back in business (kind of) So good to see you working on projects again. Love seeing you help Ryder that's the stuff that makes kids turn into great adults. Looks to me like you will end up better than before. As I said before when one door closes another one always opens

So cool to teach Ryder how to drive a clutch. These days there aren't many young people who can. Much fun watching you working on trucks again.

Great seeing you over come and conquer 💪 And still getting work done and spending time with grandkids👍your a friggn stallion 🐎

That smile on ryders face was just priceless.. thanks again Brent. And family wishing you folks all the best👍👍.

Am I the only one who wants to see all of the treasures in the barn?

Your grandson's are lucky little guys to see the smile on ryders face is awesome. I'm a huge fan of your channel and to see you continue with out missing a beat. You guy deserve everything life has to offer. Family is the most important. Thank you for all the great content brings back so many memories of my dad and I working together when I was a kid

The expression on that Young Un's face while driving the truck was total excitement! A future Gearhead!

Ryder is making memories that will live a lifetime. Without mentioning my age I can still remember the first old car that I wrenched on and how much learned from it. Still smile thinking about it. Thanks for being a mentor to him and for bringing in another future hotrodder. Love your blog!

Looking forward to seeing the OG shop up and running Brent. Nothing holds you up 😉

Oh man my guts hurt every time I watch you guys cleaning up after that terrible fire.

Wow!...it's starting to feel normal again. So happy you are back to doing what you guys do best. Very happy for all of you. Thanks for all your hard effort and continuing the great entertainment.

You have a great team Brent, glade your able to smile again -spring is a new begining peace and take care!

Great stuff Brent!!! Thank you so much for sharing your journey (life) !!! I am following your every step!!! God bless you and Esther!!!!! You all are an inspiration to many!!!! Eddy

Wow! Just can’t believe how great it is to see you right back at it! Unbelievable how quickly you got that shop up and running! And both of you have such an amazing, positive attitude about the whole deal. Your steadfast resilience, all with a smile and a calmness that makes even us viewing feel. You are giving us all hope, especially the way the world is going right now, that we can “endeavor to perceive”, no matter how much things can suck at times. So good to see this! Very motivating! We look forward to watching you “drive on with your bad self!” Thank you!

Brent you are one of the best automotive youtube channels that works on classic cars. Of course everyone is willing to help. We want to get you up and running again so you can keep us busy watching and learning. I can't wait to see the new shop being built, and what you change, and what tools you fix or replace. I don't care what you do as long as you are making videos I'm watching man. Take care, and see you on the next one. Later.

Man... so good seeing you tinkering again, just messing with the cars. Brought a huge smile to my face. Looking forward to the new shop but loving what you're doing and what you've achieved so far.

I admire your tenacity to move on and do what has to be done. Hope all goes well!

That was an awesome video! Reminded me of learning stick, many, many, years ago. Watching you make the cup holders was like breaking the ice after much heartache. I like Esther’s style that she wants to drive the Dodge Truck. Never saw that one.

Brent , After everything you have going on now , you are still doing vids and teaching your grandson how to drive and so much more . You and Ester desurve all the love your getting . I know you'll both be fine ....

Love to see the younger generation wanting to work on Old vehicles.. it's great you're showing him how to drive and work on all vehicles!!

It is so good to see you in the new (temp) shop , With projects in the air and things coming together . Your smile is back on high beam and the computer in your head has things on the front burner. Thank you for having us along to share these moments . God Bless you and yours , you are the man , till next time , Stuart in ontario .................

Great to see pablo in the new old shop 😊

Having Ryder work alongside of you is priceless. I can assure you that you’ll be looking back on these moments knowing that family is everything. Even with all the recent loss, you are a lucky man!

"We're back" that brought tears of joy to my heart. Happy to see the recovery of such a wonderful family. Thank you and I am especially happy and proud of your KZread community.. They've been extraordinary. You have a great community and well deserved.

keep on keeping on Brent we all are pulling for ya

Seeing Ryder learning to drive a stick shift was the best. He's got a heck of a teacher !

It ain't a half ass vlog without some magic Ryder action

That is a weird way it rusted out. Never seen one like that. Jack. Ya'll are very welcome. You make it very easy to be liked. We need more people in this world like Ya'll. Thank you.

Brent, I understand 1000%. You want to get back on track, to building / repairing rides. Distraction is a GOOD thing!! It's something POSITIVE !!!!!!! (I know, I've always been a negative gloomy guss most of my life.) Gotta strive for the POSITIVE parts of life.

Love the restoration videos of the tools and the shop coming together. Please keep sharing the progress. We are all invested with you in the rebuild, by our time watching you! Thank you and keep the videos coming!

Nothing better than turning a negative into a positive situation 👍 Awesome job teaching drivers education 😀

Becoming a big fan of Ryder in your videos. Someone is doing a great job raising him!

Brent Great to see you have some fun with Rider teaching 😀 him to Drive 🚗 a 4 Speed. Glad to see you work on a few Vehicles again.

Hands down my favorite channel on the utubes. Watching Ryder learn how to drive a rattly old truck, seeing how you all just jumped right back into the swing of things, and your overall positive attitudes... I'm in tears. Some of sadness but mostly of joy. Thank you for being you and I know I speak for everyone when I say God bless you, and keep on truckin!

Love watching your channel I’m glad to see someone teaching the younger generations how to do stuff and how to drive standards

Watching ryder learn to drive is bringing back memories of my brother teaching me in my dads f100 and almost wrecking. Great memories

Driving with Ryder, I think my smile was as wide as the boys... legends are made of this

We're gonna watch if it's just cleaning tools and playing in the yard, it's great to see the old shop back in action and maybe it'll be a good place for doing small projects in the future, I like the idea of having a place for the Nasty work separated from the place where you create

The smile on Ryders face is priceless!

Bret, I just wanted to say I don't shed to many tears but boy it hurt seeing that your shop burned down. I love your videos and you and your family are absolutely an inspiration! Being a retired U.S. Vet living in Okinawa, Japan you are my link to the hobby I used to enjoy when I was a young man. I had to sell my 56 Chevy 210 Sedan that I restored from the ground up before I moved back to Okinawa with my wife after I retired. I miss the hobby very much and it is channels like yours that keep it alive for me. Lord knows if I were close enough to your location I would gladly pitch in to help you with your recovery! Keep those videos coming and may the good Lord shine a light on you and your family and even greater things are going to happen in the future! God Bless, take care and stay safe!

Great to see you doing again what you love. Ryder is very lucky to have you to pass on your knowledge too. He'll grow to be a champ in your footsteps

With everything YOU both have done to please, enlighten and sometimes make us shake our heads in disbelief at, over the years, it's only right that we viewers and friends do something for YOU in return. Take your time. 👍

The boy is loving driving he will never forget you

It's a World full of Suck right now i know, but i am here to be Benny Bright Side. Seems like many areas & storage needed cleaning & this is something that was needed. Sucks the fire prompted this, yet, i truly believe you will be back & better than ever. For your yard will be much more organised & the friendships & fellowship will also be stronger than ever. Ty for taking us along

You are back!!!lLovely seeing all of you smile.Special times with Ryder…..memories last for ever.😀😀😀
