Sandro slowly taking over donut. Two years from now Sandro running donut : )

i love that they just let sandro swear and edit over it, rather than telling him not to swear at all. lets sandro be sandro and his personality really shines through

Bruh, whoever thought about closing the video with Sandro actually wrenching deserves a massive raise.

[zanemarciniak]

Sandro probably never expected as a SoCal Mechanic that he would have FANS all over the WORLD all because he’s just a genuine guy who knows his stuff. Love ya Sandro

[AyamHunters]

The practical demo of checking out and prepping the Impulse was a surprise treat. A different format from the previous videos. Great to see Sandro in action, he's legit!

[ldarm]

Sandro is a breath of fresh air, authentic and unapologetically himself, what a dude 💪🏻

Hey guys, great video! Microbiologist here with a suggestion: always wear an N95 or full respirator when cleaning mouse droppings. You can get some truly horrific diseases, including a hemorrhagic fever that can kill even healthy adults! Vacuuming their droppings can also potentially aerosolize viral particles so I would highly recommend doing it outdoors with good ventilation if you need to (with respirators on!).

If Sandro doesn't die of hantavirus from eating rat poop, I'd love to see a full series of you two restoring that car.

This video brought tears to my eyes!!! My first car in 1996 was a 1988 Isuzu Impulse and it was the greatest car I've ever owned!!! After I graduated, my Dad continued to drive it as his work car. The motor lasted for an insane amount of miles with only clutch and transmission work. I over filled it with oil, wrecked the front end trying to do a 360° on wet pavement, got an eluding police, and DUII charge in my Impulse. I have always said, "If I win the lottery, I'm buying a Impulse!!!". I would gladly fly or drive down on my own dime to be able to sit behind that seat again. The instrument cluster is like a jet fighter, and so much fun!!! And the crazy stuff we (I) would do(climb out of the driver's side window and through the sunroof), brings back good times!!! I felt like Marty McFly's white trash cousin!!! Please make this sad man-child's dream come true...I need to take it around a track once, something I was never able to do!!!

Love seeing the mechanics working on the cars. Half reacts, half working on a car is awesome. Give us more!

[MikeLeonard]

Bruh. The way Sandro talks while he's working on that car, explaining things and pointing things out. I could listen to him all day. Justin, that car was a nice find!

[davidmorse]

Sandro is a wonderful addition to Donut! It never ceases to amaze me how Donut continues to evolve with better and better content.

[StompboxBreakdown]

Sandro makes zero attempt to censor himself and I hope he never does. I don't care if it takes an additional two days to do the bleeping, this is the magical balanced blend of entertainment and education.

[ZaWrldo]

I will listen to Sandro and Angelina talk about literally anything

[AdamGreenwell]

Sandro gives a lot of wisdom but watching the guy work while providing sage knowledge is something we need more of.

[rcurtiiss]

Honestly, I love that you found sandro, he's such a chill homie. He's like a core member of this channel for me now. Him and maranda are why I watch these. Both so down to earth

[EAADetailing]

I love watching Sandro actually work on cars. We definitely need more of this!

[toddsherer]

Sandro may be the REALEST mechanic. Dude is great on camera and even better under the hood

[TheDamit]

I'm so in love with watching Sandro workin' in a shop. Dude, he the best!

[chrisfalcone]

Dude. I have a 97 cherokee that's been sitting in my driveway for about 5 years.. this video helped me so much. Thank you Sandro
