Thanks to everyone commenting about the low tire pressure! I just aired it back up :) But it's been too long since the Fiero has made an appearance here! If you want to see more of it, as well as more of the future projects I teased, feel free to follow me @fingerprintsworkshop over on Instagram 👍

I'll watch whatever you put out because I love the story telling

The problem solving, overcoming obstacles, and ESPECIALLY the story telling are definitely 85% of the reason I keep coming back. The other 15% is because you're working on unique/cool subjects. Keep up the good work, Ron!

I’m not a car guy or a motorcycle guy. I am here for the storytelling! I love watching you go through the process and hearing why you make your decisions. Keep up the good work! I’m looking forward to your house channel!

I jumped off the couch screaming “Yes, finally!” When I saw the 78 Datsun. The restoration of the Fiero was close to my heart watching the series all throughout highschool and hoping to get one of my own. It almost feels nostalgic getting excited for the 280z. I’m so excited to see what you will do and how the videos will turn out. make all of us proud to watch such amazing video quality as well as giving life back to that 280z.

I'm very impressed with your upcoming project choices, well done buddy keep up the good work :)

"It's a lot more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow." Absolutely true. I love wringing out the gears in my 10 year old Civic. I'll be at the top of 2nd and only barely at highway speed on the on-ramps. Besides, I think it's way cooler that you've got the original engine. Everything gets an LS swap these days, but how much cooler it is that there's someone who _willingly keeps_ a Fiero with the Iron Duke, despite having the skills to do the swap.

I miss my Fiero. No matter how many times that car died on me, no matter how many times it gave me headaches, I loved that car. Maybe it was the cool summer nights I spent working on it, maybe it was the how it always became a conversation piece, or maybe it was the memories I had around it. The memories of high school, where I didn't have a care in the world. Having to have the car jumped after school almost every day, with my friends around spraying the starting fluid for me. Taking the top glass off, feeling all 92 horsepower at the pedal driving to my minimum wage job. The brisk winter mornings mixed with the smell of exhaust fumes in the air. Having her in the car with me, her smile now lost in time. The Fiero signified a point in my life where I was simply content in existing, but like the Fiero, that feeling is now just a memory. A part of me is glad I sold it when I did, so that the memories of that car remained with those memories of a more peaceful time. But a part of me can never get over that car.

For me as one who used do all the servicing on his cars in years gone by I have found your vlogs very interesting, cars back then were so easy to service, today's cars don't tempt me to service them. You have made your overhaul really worth the watch. Keep going.

Unlike the apparent motorcycle haters, I am a huge fan of your humor, videography, attention to detail and storytelling. So I will be happily subscribing to your new channel and will continue to watch every single one of your videos as I have done since I discovered you on episode 2 of the Fiero! I'm so excited for your future projects! Thank you for taking us along for the ride!!

You did a great job on restoring the Fiero. The car has it faults from the factory and not the most reliable car but I would definitly drive it when ever I could.

I'm not a fiero fan or a motorcycle fan, but at the same time I'm not anti either of them. What I'm saying is for the exact reasons you were hoping that would come through in your content is why I will forever watch anything you put out. For me personally I'm anything mechanical, the level of detail you show, and the flow of your videos are what have always drawn me in. I am a gear head, so naturally I enjoy that aspect of it as well, so just know your hopes of what you are trying to convey from your channel is absolutely coming through. Also I like the shirt, I want one!

I do think that while the motorcycles are just less popular outright, there was so much love and excitement in the Fiero series that made it such an absolute joy to watch. I think you should do both, for sure, because I love watching it all, and I think you should also do what you really WANT to do, too.

Your videos are entertaining as hell, no matter what you work on. I’m here for you, man. You have one hell of a story telling ability and the synthwave is the icing on the cake.

Holy shit that's a lot of projects. I loved the motorcycle series. It really demystified the mechanics motorcycles for me, and the photogrammetry video that came out of it is an invaluable resource for makers of all kinds.

Tire looked FLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLAT on that wheel shot!

No matter what you work on, I’ll watch. I enjoy your thoroughness and problem solving. The upcoming projects all promise to be great! Keep doing what you do.

I don't care what you work on, it's the process that's interesting. The struggles. the losses and the wins.

@RonaldFinger This is so reassuring to see after all this time. I remember when your Fiero series was just starting, and I had just gotten my 1981 DeLorean. We're looking for a house to move into the next few years and hopefully your videos will be inspiration for me to really tear my car apart and rebuild it from the ground up. I'd love to pick your brain more when I come into my own, and I hope you'll be willing to help a noob like me! Take care Ron!

I dreamed about this car the first year it came out I got my license.... Nice nostalgia.

Hard to believe someone could watch a GPZ episode and not be absolutely thrilled. Then to go and complain lol. Your story telling, videography, editing, music, and actual quality of work is phenomenal. I watch channels by people I like and don't care what they work on as I just enjoy watching them do what they want. Keep doing what you want! Definitely here for Datsun and VF500 content!!

The reason I watch these videos is because you have such a great editing style, the storytelling is beautiful and the project is the nice cherry on top that keeps you coming back!

Have you considered maybe restoring an MR2? As long as you already have one 80’s mid engined 2 seat roadster, you might as well do the other. People are absolutely insane about that car and it’d probably get tons and tons of views.

This all sounds a lot like my restoration journey of my 1986 Fiat X1/9, especially the way people react at shows. Many people walk by, but if they stop, they tell me about when they owned one in their youth or had a parent own one when they were young. Some people get down right emotional. Also, I kept the original hardware too. I polished every nut and bolt on a wire wheel, but nothing held up a year later. I should have used stainless. Thanks very much for the video series!!

The motorcycle series was great, it'a a lot more accessible for most people to restore a bike rather than a car (especially old bikes) and as you pointed out even if you're not that much into motorcycles originally it's all about the work, learning how an engine goes together and can be refurbished, doing a carbs rebuild etc are transferrable skills and a bike doesn't take a whole lot of space in a garage plus you can take everything apart by hand not needing a lot of contraptions to lift a frame or an engine etc. Reallly excited about what's coming down the pipe Datsun Fairlady Z are amazing little machines ! Please keep mixing it up with bike restorations and even other shit as long as the prodution stays the same quality as it has been until now it will be enjoyed by many even if it makes a bit less views Love ot see the house renovation too please do make videos about that as well ! For the Datsuns, you might already be aware of this but a couple of guys opened a shop dedicated to restoration of 240-260 and 280z in Georgia called Resurrected Classics, Tom Scott filmed an episode of Barn Find Hunters there and as it's a fairly new business and they are just out of college they probably would be up for a collaboration or something, at the very least they manufacture parts Good luck with everything, keep up the good work

I came for the Fiero content not long after your first upload on it, but I definitely liked the GPZ videos (I like motorcycles too). While I like the vehicle side of things, I love seeing the process you go through the most. You don't just toss stuff away and replace with new (though sometimes it's necessary/nope, not even gonna bother), but actually try to repair them. This is my favorite channel on YT for sure!

Don't know anything about cars, not really a car person, but the fiero series completely captivated me. What a journey it was. looking forward to the new projects.

It has to feel awesome knowing you pulled apart a junked-out car and restored it to it looking basically new. It is a big deal.

Happy to have run into your channel around the start of your Fiero series, your cinematography skills are unmatched when it comes to revival videos!

Your restoration series will never stop amusing me, because there's a local car wash that still has a sign with two words on it, and nothing else; "NO FIEROS". You're single handedly keeping that gas station car wash's paranoia alive.

I have watched all of the videos in the series. As a teenager I WANTED a Fiero. Came super close to buying one. So fun to drive, like a go kart. It could turn on a dime.

Cars , motorbikes or home/garage renovations... bring it on Ronald 👍💪🇬🇧

Definitely looking forward to the new projects! Congrats on the new home! I'll be honest, I'm probably one of the few who actually WOULD watch home project videos. As a fairly new homeowner myself, watching videos about that would definitely inspire me to tackle some more of my own home projects. My wife and I have a lot of ideas, but time, money, and lack of planning how we would actually approach them are the biggest constraints. I definitely came to your channel for the car content after seeing the first episode on the Fiero; I'm not a huge bike guy (although I have a huge soft spot for old Japanese bikes) but the motorcycle content has been nothing short of enjoyable. Keep up the great work!

Hi Ronald. It's not about what you repair, it's how you approach new challenges and how you teach your self, and us, new things along the way. I love how honest and inspiring your episodes are because they not only show the good results, but also your mistakes and frustrations. It would not be any less interesting to watch you refurbish an old paint can, than a classic car. Thank you and keep up the good work. Looking forward to the 280z and all other future projects.

I'd love to see your renovation videos on this channel or any channel. If people don't like it, tough, do what you wanna do.

I sure enjoyed the restoration process. I was pretty impressed by the whole process. I had a 1984 & 1985 Fiero

Finger - you're content rocks be it motorcycle or car and you are right it is about the care you take, the challenges you face, and the successes you have in a relatively makeshift workshop. While I did not relate to the Fiero, the 280Z is way cool and can't wait for the video series. Also, the Honda Interceptor content will be awesome as well. Those bikes had some style and go too. Don't worry about clicks, just keep up the great content.

Great to see it is still rolling around! From my experience, I think you've made the right call about not engine swapping the Fiero or making big changes. It is running and driving well, so just enjoy it! Something I've heard about R12 conversions is that R134a, being a much smaller molecule, will often seep through old hoses designed for R12. That was my experience with the 1991 Firebird when I messed with the AC system. Will a new replacement hose for a vehicle that came with R12 from the factory leak R134a or are modern materials good enough to not have that problem? No idea. Can't wait to see what you have coming out in the future, your work and presentation is always top-notch! PS - I've found that putting a RockAuto magnet under the collar of a t-shirt when clipping on a Rode Wireless Go makes it more stable and comfortable

A detailed 3.8 awap would be amazing, but whatever you choose to do will be incredible.

My very first car was a twenty year old 1974 Datsun 260 Z so that's going to be a really enjoyable series for me. Looking forward to it!

Gotta love it when the HVAC fan decides to become an abstract street music performer... I love this car man, it's awesome you were able to fix it up. I enjoyed the series on the GPZ too!

I look forward to each one of your videos. Love the content and your tongue-in-cheek creative flourishes. Keep it up.

You guys did a terrific job on this car man. Well done. I wish I can do the same to my Kia Rio 2003 model. God bless you man.👍👍👍

Wow time flies... "A year and a half ago I wrapped up.." Feels like it was not that long ago.

"Pile of poo to pile of oooh" lmao, Ronny never change, man.

Not going to lie..not a huge fan of the bike stuff but your presentation and storytelling is amazing. That's why I've watched every episode. Lovethe videos and thanks for sharing the trips. Can't wait to see what you bring to the other channel.

I really miss mine I had when I was 17 to 21. I loved that car. Same as yours but mine was grey inside. Loved you’re video series! Thanks for sharing!

Ahhh, good to see the old girl again, glad she's (mostly) doing well. Congrats on the house, you'll find that's a neverending project. Looking forward to the 280Z... fuck yeah, Z-car!

As a viewer of UKposts channels such as yours, I have to say how much I appreciate the amount of work you put into each and everyone of these videos. I don’t think we appreciate the a mount of production, creativity and not to mention all the detailed work that goes into these restorations. Thank you for dedication to providing contentment that’s not only entertaining but also very educational. Please keep them coming!

Hey man, watched both the Fiero series and the GPZ series. Loved em both. Like you said, it's the editing, story telling, and the work put in that kept me watching. Sure there's a lot of people who do the same and don't go out of their way to tell ya. Keep up the good work, legitimately interested in the home building vids as well.

I enjoy your personality and humor, I'll watch whatever you post. Looking forward to all the upcoming projects, and congrats on the house!

I don't particularly like cars or motorcycles, and yet I have not missed a video because I enjoy your video style. Really would've liked to see some home/workshop improvement videos! How about a bicycle restoration?

Dude! Is that a Sangheili energy sword tatoo? If it is, you are even more awesome than I thought. 👊

Looking forward to all of it man. Your story telling is top notch. Congrats on the success!

Saw a guy at a local car show he put a 3.8L supercharged motor in it and a 6 speed really well done looked completely stock too !

I went back to the first fiero episode to show my friend the series. I recently bought a fiero after being inspired by this series. I noticed while rewatching the first episode a few things. Red 85 fiero. U-Haul trailer. Tied to a tree to pull it off. By chance the fiero I got is an. 85. It's red. I got it with a U-Haul trailer. And my jeep was broken down so we tied it off and pulled the trailer out from under it🤣. I didn't remember you had done any of it till my friend pointed it out. Our cars also had the same tires..

Good to see you're doing well. While not really a fan of motorcycle rebuilds, I am watching your current bike build. I am looking forward to the 280 and the Tiburon builds. Congrats on the new home and workshop.

Never clicked on a video this damn fast! Project has inspired me to get a Datsun 100a I wish to restore (largely inspired by My Summer Car). Your videos gave me the push I needed to get started. Great Content man!

The reason why I like this UKpostsr is we have the same year of stuff, I had a 1988 Ford Crown Vic in high school that gave out on me, now I have a 1985 Ford Crown Vic

Ronald, anything you feel comfortable sharing with us would be greatly appreciated. The Fierro build as well as the bike was always over way too soon. Thank you for all the amazing content. A Fan in South Africa.

Congratulations on your new home. So glad to hear about your future projects, you will always have people who never will appreciate the effort that goes into each episode. You have made an English man very happy that we can continue to watch you. Take care.

You did with that Fiero exactly like I did with a little cabin cruiser (boat). I kept walking by it at the marina where I kept my sailboat. I like the lines, but the boat was pretty totaled with a tree growing out of its deck. I finally tracked down its owner, bought it for a song, and spent months rebuilding it from top to bottom including its wrecked trailer. It turned out perfect and I enjoyed it for a number of years. So I understand exactly how you felt when you did the same to your car.

I am a motorcycle guy (never owned car in my life), so I was pleased that you did a bike. But you first hooked me with the Fiero build, despite having zero-interest in four-wheelers, for exactly the reasons you said: the problem solving, the mechanical stuff, and the great commentary.

I honestly think the fiero series is the highest my quality restoration series on UKposts, it’s a beautiful car man

Congratulations on the house purchase. Love all of the videos. Variety in the content is great. Watching the thought process and fits of rage are what makes it even more watchable and relatable.

Who are you kidding? You did a GREAT job for a 1st time restorer! So cool you're planning on bringing the Fiero to the 40th anniversary show next year! Look forward to the next video! Congrats on the new place!! Oh yeah, LOVED the Bike series too!

Make whatever videos you want my friend. I enjoyed the whole Journey of this car. I've been away for awhile and didn't realize you had bike restoration going. I'll definitely check them out too. I have an old 1986 Yamaha Seeka that I would like to pick at. Your a great creator. An inspirational builder. I'll watch it all man.

I love the story telling so wherever you put it I will watch it !!!

It's really cool seeing the Fiero come back to life. Huge shout out from Dallas, TX 🇺🇸

I agree with your comment about what you're working on vs. the work that goes into it: I don't care as much about what you're working on, but the attention to detail, any shortcomings or bloopers (i.e. when you panel fell while painting), your accomplishments, etc. Your videos are great. Keep up the exceptional content!

Man, I discovered your videos after buying an 87 2M4 for $1500 a year and some change ago running and driving. Everything you said describes exactly how I feel about it. At gas stations having people come up to me and tell me about their Fiero they had in high school is so cool to me. Unfortunately, I'm at gas stations a lot, because the fuel tank is tiny and my fuel gauge is sketchy.

for me personally car bike house could be you watching paint dry you have a really great sense of Humor very positive outlook on things

The Z and Interceptor look like great projects. Can't wait to see more on them!

I can't believe people went out of their way to comment on how they don't like the bike videos. I for one am not a bike guy at all. But the way you put it was spot on. It's about the problem solving, the story telling, the progress, etc. I loved the bike videos and can't wait to see the first Datsun episode! Keep up the awesome work man and congrats on the new house!

Loved the Fiero series, not a motorcycle fan or rider, but I sure as hell still watched the rebuild. Hell I watch rebuilds of farm equipment, squarebody chevy tanks and other machinery rebuilds.

I for one like seeing how people setup their garage, so my vote would be this channel.

I love all your projects- can’t wait to see the garage remodel.

Yeah, I watched the Fiero series as they came out, and it was a helluva ride to go through with you. And I've been enjoying the GPZ series as well, not because I'm particularly attracted to one over the other, but because you're the one doing them. Super stoked for the upcoming 280z and Tiburon content, and would love to see what you do with the house and the garage. And congratulations on your own place! Keep it up man!

I for one love home reno videos

You should definitely do the garage setup video. Would love to see how the new Fingerprints Workshop came to life! 🙏🏼

I love everything you had been doing with your channel. Even though I discoverd your channel with the Fierro's series, I become a little bit of a fan of your contents. Im addicted to your restoration video, besides Im a guy who loves DIY proyects, so the subscription to the second possible house renovation channel was a no brainer. Keep doing what you love man!

Dude. The Fiero is just beatyful. You did great job refurbishing it from rotting garbage to the present glory. You did a great project and filmed it for us to enjoy and that is something that few can do.

I want everything on this one channel. Not a bike guy, but I did love the bike series - for anyone else wondering you should give it a watch. Looking forward to everything else mentioned, including the bikes. That 2 stroke sounds super interesting.

This is an older video but Ronald, your story telling and way of explaining things is a true gift!

Man takes me back. Your series got me through my knee surgery when I was not able to get around. Hands down the best most satisfying project and I never got my hands dirty. Thanks for the follow up looking forward to your next projects

oh man I was literally thinking to myself that its hard to find a good datsun rebuild series on youtube so I'm incredibly excited for watching one done by you! Been watching since the early days of the fiero and your videos do not disappoint!

I love how one can take all of the body panels off this car, put them back on and it looks perfect! The lines/gaps are so good and uniform. Very nice time capsule that I personally would leave exactly as is. You made the perfect statement.....it's more fun to drive a slow car fast than it is to drive a fast car slow! Very impressive!

Keep the car how you have it. You did a great job. Enjoy it.

I like all your videos man! You're a great storyteller. I know how much problem solving goes into your projects because I rehab cars & bikes as well. I've renovated a couple houses too. Congrats on the new place. I'd love to see your house and garage remodel projects.

Clicked so fast! I'm so happy that there's a bright future for the channel, thank you for such great content! I drove a tiburon for years and loved it, I am psyched to see its on the list.

I love your fun little editing tricks, they've always set your videos apart.

You did a great job at bring this car back from the dead. Now I think it's time to take it up to one big notch by putting in a supercharged 3.8 V-6 from the Pontiac Grand Prix GTX. They were also in the Pontiac Bonneville.

Congrats on the house, I think I speak for a lot of car lovers when I say WE LOVE GARAGE RENOVATIONS!! I love watching everything you put out and thank you for putting it out in the first place!

This channel is a fantastic example of quality over quantity! Anything you’ve put out has been an absolute blast to watch. As a big fan I’d love to see you post more but I’m willing to wait for that quality. At this point it doesn’t matter what kind of content you’re making because I know it will be top tier and I’ll be watching. I appreciate all your hard work and can’t wait for the new series!

I’ll be honest and say that I haven’t been watching the motorcycle restoration series, but that’s mostly because I have not received notifications! UKposts is messed up; but now I have a new series to watch! 😊 Also, I try to send traffic to this channel all the time for your Fiero series. Such a well done project. And now people get to watch the whole project in one or two sittings, vs the original wait (I would STILL wait to watch). Anyway, again great job, I’ll keep watching, and already subbed to the house channel! ❤

And I got a 1976 Cosworth Vega, 2446 at the same time from the same guy. They both handle quite nice. Enjoy driving them both.

Just wanted to say that I don't care for either the fiero or the motorcycle but I've watched every episode of both series and patiently waited months and months and months between episodes because of how good you are at not only rebuilding vehicles but how thorough, entertaining and inclusive you are in your videos. I also really like how your constantly battling and killing alter egos of yourself and chuckled pretty hard when HE started walking into frame during the lightning round. Kudos inreally enjoy your editing camera skills and most importantly the wrenching. Keep at it man

Great to see a general update on the channel and nice to see an old friend back and hear how it's been getting on. Even better though, to hear that you two got your own place. Well done guys, really pleased for you! I reckon a garage build would fit in perfectly on this channel tbh - it's literally the fingerprints workshop, after all!!! 😁 The new builds look excellent, really interesting and intriguing... As does whatever you've been getting up to with the house!

I don't care what your working on, I'm just here for your hilarious commentary! and dry af witty one liners!

Considering the eternal fame Jafromobile got after his G4CP/4G63 Lantra, I think your Hyundai series will be a masterpiece!! Yaaay!
