agreed, it may be my absolute favourite thing he's done. incredibly nostalgic and respectful of the original owner.

"carchaeology". excellent.

Love his content.

If you haven't seen his Lord of Ford videos they are well worth a look.

Interesting thing about the internet. Due to prettty much limitless channels of content he dont half drag every topic out even though it can be threadbare of content. Harrys garage do it too.
On normal TV they were like motormouths to squeeze multiple topics into a limited slot.
Ok if you have the time as its all gentle no shocks or jumps entertainment.

That thing is gorgeous !

I have to admit, I never really liked Johnny on his tv stuff, but I look forward to every episode of the LB show. Not sure if it's the content or what, but I'm really into them.

I prefer it to be honest. OK, I'm not a massive fan of car reviews in general, I prefer his projecs/Idol Chat stuff. Lets people get into the sort of detail you'd lose if you're limited to a 5 minute "segment".

Enjoy Jonny’s vids - they’re much more entertaining than the awful, gushing ones of top-end cars by soapy bloggers that litter YT

Isn’t this the chap who’s dropping a V6 into a sleeper Allegro still in its original meconium brown/yellow 70s BL paint?

If so, he’s a breath of fresh air, although the series is no Project Binky in terms of detail.

There is a channel with some guy in the USA putting a lawnmower motor into a small honda car. Was quite amusing.
A bit of an excuse to show his fabricating skills. I bet the whole plot weighed more than the old honda engine by the end.

Now I've learnt to live with the constant sucking in air through their teeth which they both do on the S&S podcast, I do quite enjoy it.
Worth listening to recent S&S just to hear them talking about what cars Sade has in particular her adding two stroke oil to her Rx8.

I have just spent the pleasure of half an hour in Johnny's company, such a great video to chill out to.
