Looks like another new show. I saw a five min promo for it on YouTube and it looked promising.

The pilot episode is on his Youtube channel. It enjoyed it.
First episode is up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWbgdQaOVSQ They're restoring a Jaguar E type series 1 1//2. Edd is not the host, though.
****
Built By Many is a collaborative and real time restoration show on YouTube hosted by me, Al Cox and launched with the help of my buddy and all round megastar Edd China. The first ‘project car’ is a barn fresh Series 1.5 E-Type Coupe and the goal is to deliver a monthly restoration show with all the 'how to' videos and backstory we all love to watch.
Before this project I was a Googler and developed and ran the Google Creative Academy at the Googleplex in California. Now I’m following my lifelong passion for classic cars and bringing that together with my professional experience to develop a unique platform and practical resource for all car restoration enthusiasts.
The series is being funded through audience and business patrons so please visit the project page on patreon.com/builtbymany and check out the goals for the series, what it’s going to take to pull them off - and how YOU can be involved.
Thanks again to Edd for helping me to get this show on the road and see you soon!
Am I the only one who immediately loses interest when I see Patreon?
With so much content available for free paying for videos (no matter how good) is a turn off. I know YT pays crap but really good vloggers get sponsorship. I'd rather sit through an ad or two and not have to open my wallet.
I'm currently watching videos by an Australian named Peter Anderson. Truly grassroots restoration of bikes and cars and the occasional vintage lawn mower. I've learned a lot of neat tricks from the guy (who I believe is a high school shop teacher).
Well done, I really enjoyed it.

I can't get past how absurd this sentence sounds.

I've been watching Peter Anderson as well. I enjoy his videos, but I have to turn the sound way up because he mumbles so much. 
I was a little disappointed that Edd wasn't the host of the Built By Many show but it sounds like he will appear from time to time. The Jaguar they're going to restore is pretty rough so it's going to be quite a project.
