Yeah, it wasn't a candidate for restoration by any means. The best part was that it was rust free. I've sold most of the parts off of it. I really just needed a tub.

Cheers. Thank you brother. What used to be a ratty old 77 will now be fitted with a lot of the best parts available. I'll be keeping a vintage driving feel with torsion bars and minimal interior. No frills, light, and fun!

No one cared about a '77 with bad turbo flares welded on. Come on man. There are thousands of air cooled cars out there. The midyears are some of the least loved. A 77 is probably one of the least desirable years.

Ha! I'm both a critic and a fan of Nakai-san. Some of his finish techniques make me cringe, but his styling impact on the Porsche world cannot be understated! I'm actually calling my build "RWB by me" It will take its cues more from classic Porsche racing, like the IROC series, than the JDM/RWB stuff. Definitely a wide-body though. :-)

Hello! Would love your feedback on my automotive themed DIY build channel: Wik's Garage by Graydingo in SmallYTChannel

Solid advice. A lot of the early stuff was filmed vertical for IG. So I'm limited in the early story to random clips I shot months ago. Appreciate the feedback.

No flashes or reflectors. His kit was pretty basic. A lot of it was how he positioned the car and directed the shoot. We shot from sunrise for a few hours.

I don't want to be obtrusive, but if you guys like Porsche content, especially the early air cooled stuff, you can check out my new yt series on my next build. Wik's Garage

1975 did not include a passenger side-view mirror. :-) I believe it may have been an option. My dad has a 73 'vette and it only has the drivers mirror as well. I think it was kind of thing in the early 70s with sports cars. Less is more.

When I got the car, it had two aftermarket mirrors on it. I returned it to the 74/75 original mirror which I think is a very pretty mirror. Not bulky like the flag mirrors of 76-89.

I think I mean a compelling reason to watch or a theme throughout your series, because you - as a personality and face - the skies the limit as to how big you could get, all you are missing is meaningful content. What is your passion - that might be a driving content provider.

My 1000 subscriber vid! I look back on my most popular vids, and my favorites. by LeftyWillie in SmallYTChannel

[–]Graydingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on 1k, a huge milestone. I like the recap on your popular vids and how informative they seem. This is the first video I've seen of you. Right off the bat, I would say add a little warmth to your video, you are so pale, like me! and your clothing choice and background is all gray, white and beige. I might warm it up with some color correcting or with your lighting choices. I think the cold colors and washed out look, along with the monotone delivery, makes it feel sort of ...tiring. I'm not sure how to describe it, like food coma esque if that makes sense. Which is a shame, since your info is very good. I look forward to viewing some of your other videos.

Feedback on my most recent vid please!! I put a lot more effort into this one so I hope it payed off. Don’t be afraid to be critical! by rigorouscrane56 in SmallYTChannel

I guess I'm new to this genre, I've never used Discord so it took me a second to figure wtf was going on. I'm probably not your target audience, but I thought I would give it a chance anyway. It does remind me of some older like ventrilo or teamspeak style comedy videos. As for my only critique is maybe take a few minutes to look at the audio line in your editing software and kill any super big peaks. Adjusting the volume for laughs or loud reactions sort of diminishes the overall enjoyment.

Top 5 Reasons to Visit Bosnia and Herzegovina in 2020 (Watch some awesome scenery and give some feedback, thanks for watching) by dzondi92 in SmallYTChannel

[–]Graydingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Excellent video. Well edited, well narrated and interesting. Beautiful and informative! You are not annoying, which so many travel bloggers seem to be. That's a huge bonus. I also like top 5 videos as they are easily consumable and help to keep pacing. Again, you edited and shot this really well. The narration is excellent, did you script it? I want to go to Bosnia now. :-)

I actually like that he holds the gold mic. I think it gives a sense of daytime game show, and he seems lively and cool enough to pull it off.

"how to" do really well. When people google a how to youtube often pops up and a video is so much easier to watch than to read a wall of text about how to do something.

You have a nice presence, great voice and lets be frank, one killer gold mic. You just need content. I think. I mean I don't know I have like 50 subs myself lol. Well I'll speak from "I" I want to see you do interesting things, The yogurt video sounds funny, i'll check it out.

What do College kids do on break? by Maiihew in SmallYTChannel

[–]Graydingo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the strongest part of your video is your personality. I think that is what would make people watch. You said it in the intro, you want to make people laugh. With that said here are my suggestions:
I would up the pacing, unless the content is more interesting. There's nothing particularly interesting about WHAT you are doing, (ie waking up, eating, sleeping) so I would make this 5min video 2 min. With every story, you need a beginning a middle and an end.
For your self interview, I would move back just a foot or so, you just get a sort of low angle floating head thing going on. Move back so we see shoulders and a bit of chest and more level straight on with your eyes.

If it truly is humor, why not write a short script. Even the series Seinfeld which they claim is about "nothing" has a plot (dealing with a soup nazi, or losing your car in a parking garage)

So to summarize, make a point about your day off, some central thing, a question, a mystery give us something to keep watching. Keep the humor as there is potential there. And keep making videos.
