Classic Hoovy Facepalm - buys a 450SEL 6.9

[gerryvz]

As the former owner of a 6.9 myself, which had around 65K miles on it, I am embarrassed that Hoovy now has one.

The guys over at DC Motorwerks have a soft spot for the 6.9. Check out their Cannonball project, very impressive stuff.

I think this is his second one. I remember him having a Euro 76 from the forums (before he was on TV). He sold it to a fellow in Houston who also bought a 76 parts car from me

This one appears to be a US car with Euro bumpers (which explains the lack of rust)

Some of the info in this video seems unfamiliar.

Hoovy is still a thing? How about that!

People still click on his stuff? Maybe he puts his new hot wife on all the screencaps.

I've watched a lot of his - and other similar youtubers - content, but somehow lose interest as soon as they stat dealing with x amount of supercars and hypercars - anyone can buy whichever car and do whatever is needed to it when budget is no longer an issue, and such approaches are just one big yawn to watch in my opinion. One of the last of his videos that I did see mentioned "going back to his roots" though, so we are probably not the only ones who lost interest.

And yes, him showing off his new wife in all of his videos is neither enough to get back to what made his earlier videos more interesting.

I haven't watched a video of his in so long, that I didn't even know he was married. Yikes!

Twice... something happened with wife #1 (Quynh Anh, they married in Vietnam) and he traded up to a fancier model (literally, she's a model/actress), April Rose.

Exactly this. I watched his channel in the early days when he had much less money and they were enjoyable. Then the money and "dumbest" channel dancing around started and I had to unsub it got so bad so quick.

He must be doing something right...

Still a bit of a weirdo imo but maybe that's because I'm an Englishman and his American zaniness goes over my head...

He did a channel for her as well...

I did watch when he did a financial history of the things he did, that the thing I'm interested in

 

[gerryvz]

April Rose.

That sounds to me like a porn starlet's "stage name." Could be wrong on that, though.

You seem to be correct, mate.....

 

[alabbasi]

Yeah he's been on peach parts for as.long as I have (around 2004) and was a teenager at the time he joined. That's when the forum was called Mercedes shop.
He also attended one of the Centerville gathering in the white R107 Euro 500 that his grandmother gifted him.

@gerryvz it might have been one of the ones you attended.
