I love your dad! Can't stress this enough! He's like a SUNSHINE in your darkest days! And in this shot, he literally pops out like a sun!!

I think what makes Matt’s content so good is his understanding of *story*. Find me another channel that understands rhythm and pacing like this - every 20 minutes is an absolute breeze to watch, and it’s because he doesn’t waste a second on anything the viewer doesn’t need to see. Along with management of tone (reversals and setbacks), use of music and knowing where to end each vid so the viewer is satisfied but still wants more. Basically you’re a great editor Matt - no idea how you find the time to do it all alongside the rebuilds and the travel!

When your Dad stands by your side when your all grown up, sky's the limit! You can literally make impossible possible!! Love the joy at the end. Best from Toronto Canada

The father / son teamwork and mutual respect is so uplifting. Mat is the talkative front man, but at appropriate times, he defers to his dad. Equally, Mat’s dad is a modest guy and a lot of the time, he’ll discuss with, rather than tell, his son. And both of them laughing like drains when the Vee Twelve lights up properly (definitely sounds like it’s running on all cylinders because it’s so freaking smooth, a malevolent single tone from the exhaust). Other father son petrol head channels are Vice Grip Garage (Derek & his boys) and also Lee Johnson (motorcycle racing) with his lad, Jessie. Enjoy!

The fact that you gave your viewer the honor of trying to start the car you've been working on for so long shows just how much you respect your audience. Incredible work, keep it up!

Awesome Mat, your dad too i was on the edge of my seat.....big smile felt like I was there I love it!!! Well done super Ace!!

I've never been so happy to hear an engine fire. The amount of work, skill and dedication to get it to this point has been phenomenal. Congratulations to everyone who has laid a finger on this, but your Dad is an absolute hero. You're clearly a chip off the old block though!

i can tell matt supressed 90% of how he truly felt when it first fired up, he probablly wanted to jump off the walls😂, proud of you man, such a huge achievment and milestone you've hit, can't wait to see you drive it! ps ngl but i lowkey love seeing freddy in your vids, he's like the fairy car mother that appeared when you needed him most, sucha wholesome dude🔥

You're a genuinely nice bloke, Mat! You gave a fan (someone essentially unknown to you) the chance to first-start the Murcielago. Small suggestion for you though: Please invest in a sandblasting cabinet for the removable metal parts. And use glass beads in it to get that metal shining up ;) It would look AWESOME on the Murcielago motor!

I was into tears after hearing the first crank. I was so closely following this particular project that i felt it was one of my success to hear the engine start. It feels blessed that i found you content. I would love to see the car in real one day.

Thank you as always for sharing your amazing content with us Mat. It's so clear how passionate and dedicated you are to these projects. Awesome video as always!

Seeing you and your dad do this makes me so happy. My dad would help me with things on my cars and he suddenly passed away 2 years ago, I'd give anything to have him back and do things like this with him, and seeing you guys do this together really makes me so, so happy. Please never stop, cherish every moment you can together.

Well done Matt. That moment when the engine fired was exhilarating. I rebuild 80's motorbikes and the feeling you get on the first start after rebuild is the same but on a much smaller (and cheaper) scale. Like you, I have always loved the Mercielago I am so glad you chose to save this one. Really well done.

I watched all 10 episodes and followed the journey for the last months. Love the fire that came out of that engine. Great work Mat. And great content. Thanks. All the best from Sweden.

It's an indescribable moment, I shared the start with you and everyone in that garage. I was very happy when the engine started and you could hear the sound after adding gas. These are the moments when emotions shoot up, you let out a loud breath, your heart starts pounding like church bells and then you feel relieved that you made it.
