    Now, I'm no Magnus Walker...

    But that doesn't mean I can't have a video about me and my (one) car.

    My video is -- appropriately -- shorter than his. And let's face it, Magnus is much cooler than I am. But I'm thrilled that a website (called Petrolicious) decided to do a little profile piece on my car and my garage. So if you've got nine minutes open, click on the image below to watch it.

    And let me know what you think.

    I think you did a great job.. I liked it better than the MW one personally. Perhaps some details of your build?

    The video was VERY enjoyable to watch. Love your garage. And I like your car very much. You have put a lot of thought into your evolving project. That is something I can very much relate to.
    All the best, Chris Pomares

    I liked this better than the MW one. Not to mention, you have more humility and better hair. cool to see you working on some bits beyond little leather straps. fantastic vid, nice car, and of course....sweet garage. thank you for sharing

    Nice job Jack. I guess you wanting to develop your car is analogous to Porsche developing their car - just a lot more personal.*Really nice piece and great atmosphere.
