Thanks to Jesse for making the intro and graphic for us to enjoy!!

Stuff we do every day. You fix cars. I sell parts. Together, we can get this van back on the road for this family in a way they can depend on it to safely tote around their wee ones. If it feels right, it is right.
I know I am seeing this a year later Ray but God Bless you for helping this family.
Heartwarming
Awesome Ray that brings tears to my eye's kudos to Eric as well .
Outstanding Idea 💡
This is how I found your channel. I saw Eric's video about the engine he was building and why so I figured if Ray was also doing his part I would subscribe to his channel. I'm glad I did.
This is fantastic.
Fantastic Idea 💡
Ray, I have been following you since long before you opened your own shop. You’ve actually inspired my 52 year old self to go to school and get a degree in automotive technology. Watching the intro to this video actually brought tears to my eyes, because this is the exact type of thing I want to do, post grad. I’m going to open a shop for those that risk driving with their families, because lately auto repair has become prohibitively expensive. I would rather not have such a fat bank account, at the expense of others safety. Thanks for being awesome, and inspiring. You have a follower in me as long as you’re around. 🔧🚘
You are an amazing person Ray
Nice van
God bless you
This is why I watch you and I_do_cars. You guys are amazing. You have a viewer for life
I recently found your channel Ray and find myself watching video after video, though I’m not a mechanic, I find what you do interesting. I’ve even gone to find, at your direction, Eric’s channel and have been splitting time between you guys. I think what you guys are doing for this customer, is awesome and just wanted to commend you both for your generosity and compassion. These values are harder and harder to find in people in today’s world and it’s great to see that there is still some humanity left in this world. So thank you for what you guys are doing, all the best to you both!
12:43 I love this .your an amazing person for doing this
Your the best Ray
Hey there ray, I just wanted to say that I really like watching your videos they are very detailed and informative. Also I think what you are doing for that family with fixing there van is absolutely amazing and we need more people like you and your business to help out the less fortunate that just can’t do it especially with the cost of living today. Anyways have a great day and keep up the great work sincerely yours Jim M from Lake Panasoffkee Fl.
you guys are awesome!!!
Hi, Ray! I just came from your engine unboxing video (I'm worn out from watching you remove all those screws), and I just want to say that you, along with Eric, have elevated your status in my eyes from 'up there' to WAY up there! I've watched you for years, and I know you are honest and an excellent mechanic already. To fix and donate this van back to the family in need is very heartwarming! Thank you!
Outstanding! God Bless you!
Is there an update video?
Can you consider that Somewhere in all this That the Lord Jesus Christ had a hand in you and Eric working together to help this family out. I am a Christian myself and do know that God works in mysterious ways to help people that need help and believe me Because you are helping these people God is going to prosper both your businesses In ways youve never dreamed possible because you have done this thing NOT EXPECTING anything in return. Let me know how this comes out for you guys, Gods Blessings on you
Man this is incredible! I love Eric’s channel and now I subscribe to you.
You guys are the best!
You guys rock. Let me help a little bit.
Thanks!
I commend you and all who help in this project. With the amount of greed in this world it’s nice to see. Thank you to all that work on this project
erfect Solutio
Absolutely wonderful people to do such an act of kindness in this day and age where people seem to always have their hand out. Well done!
God bless y’all. Thank you so much!!
Was there an update to this video? Is the job done?
This is amazing!â¤
i must say, you and Eric absolutely Rock for doing this. the world needs more people like the two of you, and those supporting both in terms of positive vibes, and financially. you are all amazing 🙂
I came here from Eric's channel. Nice thing you two do. Eric put it well: *We'll fix this because we can' Respect.
I do cars is a lot of fun to watch. Eric is awesome. In fact, I think you're both saints. What a great thing to do, guys. Thanks for being awesome!
Well done Ray and Eric what a pair of champions paying it forward good video keep up the great work 😊😊
U are a star well dun
How can a 150K car be in such bad shape?!?! They appear to take it into the shop often for work… but the question is, why is there so much work to be constantly needed? I had a 2006 Honda Accord for over 15 years, and the only things that failed was the cruise control button on the steering wheel failed in year 8 or 9, a the rear trunk lift support shock spring strut failed, and I think one of the turn signal bulbs.
Thanks!
You guys are Rock Stars!!
Having lost my father to cancer in 2022 i can understand the situation the folks are in as i have been in that position myself, thank you ray i discovered your channel after my father passed away and it has put me in a better place.
The banter and the entertainment from your video including the informative advice and guidance on car repairs really has me taking my mind off the negatives in my life.
This iis really kind . Should get together and see if you can keep it up that would be good to follow. Good for you guys well done.
Great! Love it. Rather than giving them (all of) the extra money – save it to do another future giveaway project. It’s a great way to give to your community.
God bless you and Eric, helping people in need, well done Ray! I may not agree on your repair technique (sloppyness), but I've always known you were a good unit…
Thank you for giving to someone that needs it and isn't looking for it! We need more of THIS!!!
You're a legend Ray; such a kind thing to do. Best wishes from across the pond
Why am i not surprised. Ray you are a legend.
Just a side note. If a government did this it would be regarded as socialist and Ray would be a liberal. Americans are full of labelling to the degree that nothing gets done. Just an observation from a bewildered Australian.
Love you Ray
Just saw this video today. Here's my part to help. The van is in great shape body wise, it's got years left in it with the rebuilt engine that's going in it. With all the gloom in the world, there are beacons of light poking through that gloom, thanks for being one of them. This is going to be a fun series to watch.
