Rebuilding A Wrecked Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 8 | Part 1

Thanks for watching I have a lot of new videos and I’m working on more right now! I’ll be posting them every Sunday at 1pm EST!

I realize I'm late to this series (but extremely happy I came across it!), but a lot of these issues seem like they would have been so easy to just do the right way the first time.

This is good stuff.
Found this because if your relationship with freddie.
You two are both interesting to watch, thanks for the content, hope it is rewarding for you.😊

Great to finally start watching your build. One silly question: why in the world are converting metric measurements on a Japanese car to inches for your listeners?

Shouldn't you be the guy in front of the camera?

So glad you made a channel, you and Freddy are great together. The rust isn't like up here in the salt belt, this is will not fight you coming apart from all the rust falling in your face. G-d bless.

You guys need to go northwest so yall know what's rust in in a car.

I like this style a lot. Mechanic-first approach. It’s great you’re not afraid of nerding out on the details. Great video! Thanks!

Such a great build man!! I can’t wait to get caught up!

if u want to see rust look at a jap car after 20 years on the shitty wet salty roads of the uk ,, then u no what rot is lol

A star is born!!!!

That’s not a stock IAT sensor… I’m curious what kind of tune you’re running…

Go Jack, gonna be a good series

New Marvel Hero:
Jack Lazer Eyes

Love seeing people get their dream cars and super happy about it. I felt the same when I got my Evo. Amazing cars.

I had the same misfire sound on my Evo. It was the coil pack. I assume if the previous owner upgraded the battery location, BOV, intake and intercooler that he/she probably had an aftermarket coil pack kit. The OEM ones arent very good for higher power which this one may have been tuned for.

Just kept watching the video and yep just what I said haha

I see lots of spot weld cutting in your future. also it's nice to actually see some one use a tram gage lmao

Hopefully you kept every tiny small scrap. The hood mesh looks fine, they are spendy.

Jack, I know this is an older video, but you did a great job narrating the process, telling us what you are looking for each step of the way. It's too bad Co Part does so much damage to cars as they move them around. Great video. Best wishes.

If this was a northeast car he would know what rust was.

You can fix that car easy you gotta use to kill the rosters you use roster killer acid or vinegar or what and will remove the rusted 👍

Buying a car from copart is existing at first get ready you'll be terrified when u pick it up 😮‍💨

Just subbed love to see someone who can really do old school bodywork repair i've the same dream car the EVO cant wait to see the end result all the best from Sheffield UK

Your storytelling is amazing. I am very excited to see the rest of this build!

Fancy seeing Freddy here. Lot of work ahead but saving an evo is worth it!

"So do my McLaren" 😅

It's amazing how much an evo Shell and subaru shell look a like when stripped, I wonder who copied who 😂😂.

Don't use wd40 for bolts. Use Gibbs Penetrant on it. Great stuff just kinda expensive.

We share a dream car! I've wanted one of these ever since I first saw one.

Other than the crash damage and the Copart damage that is one of the cleanest Evo's I've seen rust wise. Also having it still be square top and bottom after that kind of damage is incredible.

hey florida man, thats f all rust, with love from the British Isles 🤣

Hey jack do you need a roof liner i have 1 brand new

Jack, this is absolutely amazing.

I’m so glad jack got his own channel. I’m a body shop owner and love watching you work.

tnx for the video

Is Freddy on your payroll on this build? 😂

Awsome, part 1🔥👌😍

Why is this idiot so surprised to find damage on a car that was wrecked

Very happy for you! The emotion and passion you showed when you started it and drove it around is what made me subscribe!

Cool

Hi Jack. I ❤ this re-build. There's alot of work to be done on this car. The best of luck with it. Nice Haircut Jack 😅😅. Chat soon bro.

Hey, Jack. The adjuster just sent back the approved supplement. He says just straighten the condenser and all Tong Yang parts. Lol.

My Eclipse has a Megan exhaust....

I live on the seafront and trust me, thats pristine condition compared to the rust i see on my car

I now want to see a shirt saying duuuude😅

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Dont waste time, just go to junkyard. ✌️💖

Looking forward to this build Jack, good luck and see you at SEMA.

Amazing man, bless you sir
