i kinda feel like this guy deserves it tho, he was there when the blue Mc blew up, so it's fitting for him to see the ultimate Mc build coming together

Subbed

Yeah this was the classiest way to do this

Subbed, spread the love for that glorious candy carbon!

And giving him the Shout out on Shmees video

I was out of breath at that part, I knew about the color, but I didn't imagine that it would be so good on carbon, Kandy Man is an artist.

@@1337venezolano *I'll be honest, I had my doubts when Tavarish was talking about painting over the carbon with a clear that has color and flake in it.* *It takes a highly skilled painter who knows what they are doing to accomplish an effect like that and make it look that daaaaaayyyyyuuumn good!* *Tavarish is taking every aspect of this P1 build to the next level and I am loving every minute of it*

Dude is fearless, you need truck-sized balls to take on a project like this, flood damaged P1 that's a word combination you don't want to hear.

To the people who, right at first, said "Tavarish is nuts for attempting this", ...who's laughing now?! Its the best decision he ever made! His channel has exploded since he bought the P1! ...and he's crushing it far beyond what I could have thought.

From buying the pimp my ride van to this. Bespoke builder

I am looking forward to the completion , colour looks 👌.

@@kidwave1because they know he couldn’t rebuild it stock.

It’s nowhere near finished

@@teddystevens6624these people are myopic sycophantic fan boi clowns. It’s ridiculous. Tavarish is a m0r0n. He’s never even finished a car. He has no idea what he’s doing.

@@teddystevens6624no shit

Oh I can only imagine Manny's reaction to this when it's done.

Nobody doubted it. They said you can’t rebuild it and make money. Which is 100% right. He will lose a ton of money on this car.

@@executiveinvestmentshe won’t remember what he makes out of his videos

New to KZfaq?@@executiveinvestments

@@elihere1242 huh? There is no profit in this car. That’s a fact. He paid triple what it was worth. Don’t care about his video. I’m talking about buying a salvage car to make a profit.

Pro tip: Try canned air to unstick your CapsLk key!!

*McVarish* 🤣 love it!

Smashed my expectations many folds

Totally agree

@@harshpandey5228 literally perfect amount of color

Classic color with that interior is perfect for hypercar

I was worried when he CO2 blasted the trans just to get it in the car for SEMA. glad he didnt try to get it running for the show, perfection takes whatever time it takes

Agre3d!

Inspiring how? He claimed he would have this project done for SEMA and he just owned up to the fact he is nowhere near done. For all anyone knows at present this will just be added to the list of all the other projects he never finishes.

@@EarlofBaltimore Oh, bother... you're the kind of person I'd give a nearly full glass of water to, and you'd ask why the rest of it wasn't also filled. Can you be any more pessimistic? Freddy's going to finish this project, especially given all the time and money he has into it. He finished the 675LT, so there's no reason he can't finish this one either, especially because he has nearly all of the necessary parts lined up and waiting to be installed. Is there still a lot of work to be done? Of course, but that's what you'd come to expect with a car like this.

@@CaseyCollier There's a difference between pessimism and realism. Have you followed his channel for long? I'm not going to say he's never finished anything. Let's just consider the ratio of finished to unfinished projects he has undertaken. His shop is full of unfinished projects. He had several projects in the works and then went for quite a period of time producing very little content. Then he's back all the sudden with this flooded P1 he's going to "restore" and have ready for SEMA. That's not what has happened, and all the other projects have apparently been abandoned.

@@EarlofBaltimorewhat a load of bull, straight up hating on a man’s success.

@@EarlofBaltimore I understand what you're saying, to some degree, but I think you're failing to account for the fact that he finished the 675LT, which was the largest and most ambitious project he had undertaken at the time. It's also the most recent project he's done, so it's not like it was all that long ago that he finished a project he started. You might not personally believe that he'll finish this P1, but most of everyone else does because he completed the 675LT and did a fantastic job in the end.

Bravery for wasting a ton of money on a flood car and then hiring out the build to others while he blandly talks? Sure.

@@corail53 I guess you’re not a fan then lol..

You know he is a millionaire himself right.

@@corail53 Sure he is....but he looks like he worked for it! Or was he a trust-fund baby? I am sure he's more the face of the company now as with many KZfaqrs. But I prefer his way of becoming a millionaire to selling us 'bad' pharmaceuticals they say we MUST have or everyone will die! The world of super and hypercars is obviously quite obscene when you think how that money could help a village or families. But I'm one of the people that helps that I know. One day I'll grow up I hope!

I think we all were. Even Hoovie, Ed, and Jay Leno were... but we were ALL rooting for Tavarish! This is the success we all want for him. ❤️

Did he ever explain why he changed the engine instead of rebuilding the original?

Let's be honest here. This car was never going to be worth $2 million again, regardless of what he did. It's a salvage title P1 that's been completely submerged in a flood for at least 24 hours. Nothing he could do would really bring the value of the car back. Even if he had bought all OEM parts from McLaren, it still wouldn't have made much of a difference.

How can a guy who no longer wrenches on his cars be an inspiration to wrench everyday? The goonsquad boys are putting in more work on their rebuilds than freddy does these days.

lmao it's now a 12C with a body kit, been done to death dozens of times more than 10 years ago 🤣

@@richardtodorov My man... it's still a P1, whether you want to admit it or not. Parts of the body, all of the frame, the whole carbon tub, and nearly all of the components besides the engine are from the P1. The only reason he couldn't get the engine from the P1 rebuilt is because it was ruined in the flood and wasn't going to run (same with the hybrid drive system). At the end of the day, it's a rebuilt P1 that would never have seen the road again without Freddy and his team's work. That's what makes it special, and not just a "12C with a body kit."

@@CaseyCollier it’s Monocell 1, guarantee you have no idea what the actual cell is, a different engine, and a different aftermarket body … yea modified 12C is being kind, but the YT dorks will believe anything.

@@richardtodorov "it’s Monocell 1, guarantee you have no idea what the actual cell is" I don't care what type of monocell it is. The fact of the matter is that it was used in the original construction of the P1 and came off of an actual production car, after it had been salvaged. It's the same with the front and rear frames, as well as some of the body parts he has used. Just because you personally don't care about that fact doesn't then mean that this car is now a 12C or 720S. That's ridiculous. You're not the arbiter of what does or doesn't constitute a P1. "a different engine" As I already said, the engine was toast. He wasn't going to get it running again, especially with all the seawater corrosion in it. What would you expect him to do, exactly? Find another P1 engine? Where is he supposed to find that when they simply don't exist on the open market? If you're going to criticize him this much, then I at least expect some kind of solution, instead simply making complaints. "and a different aftermarket body" Again, what was he supposed to do, exactly? Most of the body was unsalvageable because it had been damaged in the flood. Official McLaren parts are too expensive as well, so what's the realistic solution that you'd propose? I'm here to read it. What is it that you'd have him do?

@@CaseyCollier lmao the question that should be asked is why are you so committed to commenting book chapters on here like your life depended on it 😂🤡 kid get a life and grow a pair, that’s your solution, this guys solution is to keep BSing and doing what it takes to keep ignorant little dorks engaged in a P.5 Wish

Well it is

The Battery🔋alone is $200k and Only makes about 176hp. Also it weighs about 400lb/181kg… Does it take part out of the P1 Souls? Yes but it will be cool to see something different with a Legendary car like the P1🚗

@@Donnie_21 I totally agree and WOW would I love to see someone like Ben Colins set some lap times in this when done for sure! My point is, if someone had a McLaren F1 with a blown engine and pulled the LS swap, would you still call it an F1 regardless of how good it was? Will be cool too see it when actually finished for sure.

I wish it was completely done and beside Stradmans wide body exposed carbon Lamborghini hands down the hottest cars on the property at SEMA,
