I need to think on this.

    I love watching MartyT fix abandoned tractors in the NZ wilderness. You got any recommendations for similar slop?

      I actually found him recently, super cool guy to watch. My favorites in no real order are Andrew Camarata(closest to Marty T, but with a upstate/catskills accent which is comforting), who makes videos of him doing various earth-moving jobs and his expert skills at repairing the machines he uses. Then Mustie1 is a big aircooled VW guy who can get just about any aircooled vw running, but he'll also fix old dirtbikes he finds for cheap. He's also a lovely guy who is a pleasure to listen to go over his methods. Vice Grip garage used to be more fun but he's really made it his full time job so it feels sorta canned, similar to VGG is junk yard digs, I always found them a bit awkward but they started reviving old farm equipment for a challenge type thing and it feels like they hit their stride. Deboss garage is fun to watch. I don't really like big diesel rigs but he makes them interesting. other peripheral folks are cars and cameras, who ironically very rarely work on cars and mostly do small things like go-karts and minibikes. Mortske repair is also a pretty good rescue channel, he's just not as charismatic as others.
