It is not a channel but I like Mark Evans videos, a car is born, a car is reborn, MG is born, bike is born etc.

VIRGIN AUSTRALIA V8 SUPERCARS on motortrend channel....great racing lots of vroom vroom noises v8's 6 speeds irs stock bodies, curb jumping and hard racing, but good mates off the course
Fully Charged with Robert Lllewllyn, aka Kryton in Red Dwarf, cos he is really committed to zero pollution cars (and cos he can out-cuss anyone, present company included).
Weirdly similar in a absolute and completely different way. :D www.youtube.com/watch

I would not even have attempted this "1984 Toyota Celica Turbo Restoration". :) www.youtube.com/watch

I may have at one time or another indicated that the Binky project is dragging on a bit (IMHO) but it has flashed by in an instant. This Audi Quattro project took 10 years and was much simpler. Taking a car apart, repairing some small bits and putting it back together again. How hard can it be? www.youtube.com/watch
Looking forward to many years of high quality Binky production. :)

I was wondering how to fibre glass panels for my project, and I came across WJP004. An old Aussie chap with little disregard for health, safety or his own health. But he's doing a fantastic series on making a race car out of a Civic. He doesn't know how to balance audio so sometimes his voice will be quiet, but he's got oodles of knowledge and you'd learn alot about fibre glass.
Others include Hub Nut (which I found after I found BOM), and Built By Many. He's doing a Jaguar E-Type restoration, think he's getting a lot of flack for not having Edd China on there but to be honest the pepole he has had on there have been fantastic.
Finally, there's SOUP. Good channel and very well put together. It's keeping me going while I wait for Episode 21 of Binky...

How could I forget my own channel? (Parknest) Please help me get to 1000 subscribers. I've found that the car stuff seems to be more popular. That's why I bought the Polo (everybody loves some VW content) and the Bimmer.
I'd recommend SOUP as well. HubNut is another (none other than Ian Seabrook who edits the Classic Jaguar and Retro Jap mags). Vantage Point Video is a bloke from Cork who restores Opel Kadett Ds (MK1 Astra). I've started subscribing to the channels that I've mentioned previously. Did anybody see that 240Z on B is for Build? It had BMW E60 M5 running gear (including the entire wring loom and the dashboard). That was Project Binky on steroids.
most fun with clothes on "Skid Factory" Aussies with a faster turn-around and Turbo-Yoda...Al is a Genius like Nic but hilariously Grumpy, and he loves his "Lemon Squash" the Bedford with a Barra is a wonder of engineering "
Sarah -n- Tuned (a young lady from Tuscon, Arizona who has an Audi TT and a MK2 Toyota MR2) Tavarish Hoovie's Garage (a bloke from Kansas who buys broken cars left right and centre and then dumps $$$ into fixing them) The Wizard (Hoovie's mechanic who has his own channel) Bluudy's Garage (a local guy who has a Supra and has some project cars) bodgitt and leggit garage (an ex-pat in Ireland who demonstrates car repairs) Diagnose Dan
I won't mention the non-car channels as it would take this thread off-topic.

I think you mean Project Binky on meth. Chris has the drive and daring, but his pace seems at times to be too subjective to the impatience of his viewer base.
I do get that he does this full time now and needs the exposure to keep going, but like when he drops money on expensive parts but stitches together stuff with his Hazard Freight FCAW welder
because his miller GMAW mig setup has and empty bottle, i kinda gotta shake my head. Cutting corners like that wouldn't even remotely pass muster with Project Binky.
Half of his cars wouldn't pass the UK MoT. The 240Z would need an IVA because it has been heavily modified. It certainly wouldn't be classed as a Historic vehicle due to the E60 M5 DNA. With the points system it would probably have to carry the M5 identity for it to be registered over here. Do they have any sort of vehicle inspection in Oregon?
I forgot about Pete C who is a serial MK3 Cortina restorer.
DIY Gang - a bloke in Connecticut who is currently restoring a 2016 Dodge Hellcat that was burnt out.
Classic Britain - a couple of blokes from Cornwall and their trials and tribulations with a Rover P6
Aging Wheels - an American version of HubNut (I'm not inclined to agree with that comparison).
WatchJRGo (a bloke from Witchita, Kansas who buys crap cars and fixes them. Like Hoovie but more hands-on with the spanners)
Andy Mechanic (UK ex-pat in NZ featuring some nice tool girls)
Furious Driving
Ali Mack- Mechanical (a driveway mechaic in Inverness)
3d prop studios (a bloke from Grimsby who is building a replica Batmobile in his garage)
1969 Ford Capri - Kate (a bloke from West Bromwich whis is restoring a MK1 Capri withe the helps of some friends)
bodgit and leggit garage (UK ex-pat in Ireland who has his own car repair business)
DiagnoseDan - a Dutch mechanic (the Dutch equivalent of South Main Auto)
Mercedessource - A bloke from Washington (the state in NW USA, not the US capital) who is a Mercedes Benz specialist.
Shrodingers Box (an American bloke who takes a methodical approach to car repairs)
The Skid Factory, Rob Dahm, Benny's Custom Works and AVE are all favs and well worthy of the mentions that they have already received in this thread. Another one that I have been following of late is The Lab
Laconic Kiwi bloke working from a home workshop. He has a ridiculously small Nissan March powered by a ridiculously large Nissan turbo V6 which is often piloted by Paul Radisich (ex BTCC/ V8 Supercars) as well as doing interesting transplants into various other vehicles. Budget builds professionally done along with plenty of brackets to keep BOM fans satisfied.
