    I've never been in such great awe of a YouTube project as I am here. Flying a helicopter inside, putting an Audi A7 in rice, manual swapping a 599 in a day, driving a new Ford GT throughout America. Hell, even collapsing a building with a Toyota pickup on top of it. You beat Top Gear! Freddy, good luck.
  • @car_pal
    It feels good when Tavarish puts out 2 videos in 2 days
  • I know that this has not been an easy time. I am glad to see Tavarish diving back into something large. Not that he needs to constantly top himself. Just that I enjoy his problem solving process, and I learn a lot form what I see here. My hat's off to you, sir.
  • @johncook9392
    As much as I LOVE the idea of having a P1, due to my work in the insurance claims industry I can tell you that you would want to avoid a flooded vehicle just about 100% of the time!!!
  • @Shmee150
    Not many people in the world would stomach taking on something this big! You're crazy, in a wonderful way, congrats Freddy. Can't wait to see it running again!
  • @mightycarmods
    Wow! We also just bought a yellow car but cost $570,000 less than yours. Good luck with the build!
  • @CRedfearn1983
    Hey, new subscriber here. I hope you know that the reason you have so many fans has about 10% to do with the cars and what you’re doing. The other 90% is because you’re such a great guy. Great content, thank you!
  • We're so excited for this Tavarish! I'm looking forward to sticking on to the channel for this project. Congratulations on owning a P1.
  • @chrisfix
    This video was so good dude! I’m still finishing up but I’m excited to see you rebuild this. I know we talked about the risks but if anyone can do this, it’s you. With such an crazy story, this car is going to be amazing!
  • @Ratarossa
    Massive respect for taking this on dude.... you have balls of steel !

    Been Buying Salvage and Rebuilding in Linden NJ for 25 years ... I got one from 2012 Hurricane Sandy Flood Car from Long Island IAA. My inside guy at Brooklyn MB Dealer's Shop told me this almost new 2011 w 1,820 m E350 4Matic Sport was left on lowered lift inside shop, so no rust under seat rings, yet was X'd Out as a Total Mid-Door Flood Loss. A $70K Car New, my 2011 E350 4Matic Sport with Auction Fees,Tow with a total cost $14,800.00 that includes OEM accelerator pedal assembly, carpets and floor pans rinsed and cleaned and started right up. One year later had to replace lower mounted alternator, other then that, today I still own this Silver Gray Benz (was a BDay Gift for wife's 40th). She's a non smoker with no kids, 74k on a 12 year old car and still looks great. I was very lucky with this Flood Car but many other Rebuilders here in Jersey were not so lucky, so we only bought flood cars for parts ever since Sandy. I will soon sell it very very cheap to a friend for good continued Karma

    inspirational. this has never been done anywhere on the internet ever. really looking forward to this restoration!
  • Absolutely amazing dude. You got this. Can’t wait to see the finished product but even more excited to watch the progress
  • You're an absolute mad man, I am so excited to watch this build
  • @brianbishop4753
    I just got around to watching my first Tavarish video and chose this one because of the VinWiki and Hoovie episodes. 5min in and I’m impressed with the quality and the best transition into and out of a “commercial” I have ever seen.
  • @anthonyg4671
    Don't skip the ads people, Freddie needs all the help he can get on this one 😀
  • @zacetoch401
    Back to back days of Tavarish Videos? What did i do to deserve this!
  • What a amazing project. Followed you after Mat Armstrong started his project in your garage. Can't wait to watch as you fix this car
  • @Challz2012
    COOL!!! Gutsy move to buy it!! Cant wait for u to fix this and get it on the road. Much love and good wishes from Nairobi, Kenya!
  • @arconcritter
    I have a feeling this restoration project will become the most watched auto series in YouTube history. Good luck and I can’t wait to follow the journey to first drive. Congratulations!!
