Official MCM (Mighty Car Mods) Discussion Thread

I don't know about you guys, but with top gear gone, and season 7 of MCM pretty much underway I feel like we need a thread for discussion.

I know a few members who are fans like I am.

For the uninitiated:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJ...6XFxq9Ga8W2J3A

Most recent episode:


Seeing Gramps get destroyed in Part 11 of the build was shitty, especially after how much work was put into the prep work for the paint.

I haven't watched this show since the "LA" episodes. Always good for a laugh, thanks for reminding me this was a thing!

Ugh i feel for them. At least they have a positive attitude about it and are trying to build another one.

if it weren't for the parentheses in the title, I'm sure some of us thought it was "Man Crush Monday?" followed by "wtf?"

Their episode with the shakotan/bosozoku project car is my favorite. So intriguing all the different types of car modifications the Japanese immerse themselves into

Big big fan of this show, way back since season 3. Particularly liked the cressida build, and the street cred vw golf episode. the Lend me a Ride series was good too.
And who could forget the TRD Lazer!
The Gramps build is my favourite so far, was the main inspiration to turboing my own wagon!

Yeah for anyone who hasn't watched these guys go back and have a look. They've done it all, built a track spec MX5, an S2000, a Drift pig, some crazy low budget stuff, and now this latest build with gramps.

It's a great youtube show, and they you learn some car stuff once in awhile, but it's always entertaining with the Marty & Moog Duo.

Great series and funny guys, really impressed with their dedication to the channel as I heard somewhere they're bank managers (or something of the sort)

Official MCM (Mighty Car Mods) Discussion Thread

Too bad about the situation with Gramps, all that time and effort put in up to that point is almost for nothing now, although I'm glad Marty's still in good spirits about it. Watching the MCMTV2 (their second channel) video of him and Moog taking Gramps for a test drive makes me feel the car should be reborn, and considering Marty's experience in reshelling cars (Blue Turd and RS Turbo) it should be a breeze.

I've loved MCM for years and I always end up watching it when I'm bored and need something to pass the time. Last season seemed a bit less entertaining than others though because the whole Miata/S2K saga seemed out of their comfort zone, maybe a little fabricated. Now that Marty's back with a Subaru I see the genuineness returning, and I'm stoked to see what Moog now has in his garage as well. This season is looking like it'll be good.

Shocked at how much content has been put out from these guys recently and considering the length of the videos, they must not be getting any sleep at all.
