This could be an interesting build series,

This car was last seen on Nugget Garage and was known as Kevin the Savage with a Turbo ecotec motor in it.

I remember the Hoff saying it was sold and we'd see it again. Kevin the Savage did well even when they were taking the piss, good ol' Wendy gave it a thrashing!

Unfortunately Nugget garage has gone backwards a bit.

It used to be one of my favourite channels after Skid Factory.

Unfortunately after Chris and Scott parted ways that was the end of it. It's a lot like top gear, it was the chemistry and the banter that really made their videos what they were.

Also now Scott is doing just tuning and no fab work and builds, it's going to be hard for him to put out entertaining content. Now all his videos are just "This is what I tuned this week".

I think I'll link in all the old Kevo videos from Nugget Garage later so we can reminisce!

It would require a **** tone of sponsorship for Kevin to ever get over to the US. I was under the impression the plan was to use it at drag and drive style events in Aussie, not sure I heard them say they wanted to head state side with Kevin. It would be nice to see though.
