Precision Transmission in Amarillo. Guy can tear down an automatic transmission in 30 minutes, explaining everything that's wrong with it https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYAAY7V9ifGS7Q8S35EFVnw

Squatch253, guy in Minnesota rural area who rebuilds old tractors and crawlers and actually uses them https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv_zjUQJ98JgBHcch2PP7Vw

Awesome. I can just imagine the howls of outrage from the tifosi that someone would dare to defile a Ferrari with a lowly Honda engine (ignoring the fact that Honda is arguably Ferrari's equal when it comes to engineering).

Along opposite lines, Ryan Tuerck swapped a Ferrari 458 engine into a Toyota FRS/GT86, creating a potent combo that you don't see every day tailor-made for drifting:

I see a lot of transmissions come apart, but i haven't seen one go back together... heh

There's the old standbys, Vice Grip Garage, Uncle Tony's Garage (for the Mopar or No Car crowd), letsdig18 for those who like watching excavators work, Post10, Coldwarmotors, JonathanW for old cars and machinery, the boat the internet built SV Seeker, sreetips the gold and silver recycler, and all the watchmakers because you have to appreciate the workmanship of the old school watches.

And, what happens when a car carrier rolls over and sinks in the St Simon Sound? You send a machine out to cut it into sections. The Minorcan Mullet Report does daily updates on the progress.

Richard at Precision has done one build video that I know of. The builds take 4 to 9 hours, which means more editing, and tying someone up holding the camera instead of working.

The car carrier videos are pretty good.

I'm hooked on "Watch JR Go" and "100% Jake", which is kind of strange, since I'm not all that interested in cars but they make auto repair look interesting. 
Also, "Regular Cars", where a variety of random, regular used cars are road-tested; the reviews feature over-the-top descriptions which are often quite funny.
"America's Test Kitchen", because it's food, and they taught me how to sous-vide soft cooked eggs properly. 
zefrank1, who amusingly describes the attributes and habits of animals in a sort of pseudo-scholarly tone of voice ("This is how the trap jaw ant do.")
Bob Fowler, because i like vintage sewing machines. I don't sew, but I like the machines.
Among others.
