Film more of the yard, less of you. No one clicked on this video to see you. Thanks for the effort.

1.22 This very morning, I saw an early 90's Mercury Capri convertible drive past me. I haven't seen one of those in ages, and now I see two! That place looks kinda neat, I'll have to check it out sometime.

"You're probably watching because you are just as intreated" Hell yeah.

Thanks for the updates, looking forward to more crazy mods on the Cube!!! I like the videos just the way they are!!

ART ART ART ART also i like the shorter videos, they feel easier to absorb or commit to. But quality is whatever you want it to be.

Subject/content is more interesting. Plus, I think if you're happier actually working on the projects & not editing videos, that's worth more.

I'd say the subject/content of the videos hold more of the appeal versus how seamlessly edited they are. Even with bigger channels with more professional-grade production quality, I'm tuning in because I'm primarily interested in how the projects are coming along.

A 420 code and a funny smell could mean excessive cannabis intake.

Do you add the new oil to the breather? I have a 1955 88 and cannot find no videos on it. Thank you

It's so satisfying to see the car all in one color.

Hey, did you ever figure out how to get the black plastic trim off the lock on the side door? I can't find any info on it anywhere....and it's delaying my reupholster! It can't be too hard right? Scratching my head.

There is or was back in the day a aftermarket thing that look like two pieces of flat metal like paper clip with nob to tighten that sliced in between the van window

@ImprobableGarage Great video! Thank you, doing mine tomorrow. May I ask you, the bypass valve, for rear heating... My '94 conversion didn't utilize it either. All the pipes were installed but no unit in the back. Do you think I'd be okay, bypassing it as well (running the engine hoses directly to the heater core)? There is a vacuum line currently hooked up to that valve and is operational. I understand it has to do with not allowing cold coolant to the core, and thus, the front heating. Hope that makes sense and, by the way, you got a nice G-20 too! Would love to talk to you but no idea if that's possible? Thank you again for any insights on tomorrow's repair! ***Edit: Specifically, in the video beginning, when you were referencing the under-the-hood, heater core/coolant lines valve (located kinda behind and under the A/C dryer canister & firewall), were you referring to the aluminium piping assembly (for the rear coolant flow lines, and located even lower behind the A/C dryer/canister), or the actual black 3-way (might be a 6-way) vacuum controlled valve (located just behind the A/C dryer canister and very close to the heater core connection)? Thanks again! My email is my name with a dot between the first and last at the standard gmail domain:)

How do you get them out??

Primer: I feel your pain. The Pontiac was shot in turd brown primer decades ago and I loath it. I'd rather have a worn, original paint. I plan on sanding it down, doing that job outdoors. But before I can do that I have to get the brakes back on the car so that's what I'm working on over the winter.

thank you, very helpful

What size screws for the dog house screws at the bottoms

It's scary how much I can relate to your desire to buy , enjoy and sell stuff.

I have an '88 G3500 and the tab you drilled a hole into seems weak, like it might bend over time of pulling from there. Did/do you have that concern, or do you think the front/rear washer adds enough strength?

The progress is looking good. 🔥 And, I'm right there with you with the rotator cuff injuries.

Cool Oldsmobile. Good luck with your project. New subscriber.

PREP PREP PREP, AND MORE PREP BUT ITS WORTH IT GOOD LUCK

thank you!! Just had to do this. Also, where did you get the panel surrounding your radio? I'm assuming it has the spring clips that snap into the dash (top bottom on each side)? I bought a g3500 that has the same thing, but they cut it into 2 pieces, left/right to fit a double din but neither piece is wide enough, so you can still see between it and the sides of the radio, I see you have an extra panel round your actual radio, so I'll have to do that too, but I want to start over but can't find the outer piece.

It started! See! She wants to be driven. 😏 Nice work on catching up. Looks good.

Throw some primer on it, put it back together, and sell it.

There's no such thing as a "rust free New England car". They are called "parts cars to fix a nice southern car."

I've been there. I can relate. What I'd do, and have done before is reassemble it as is, make sure it's mechanically sound, throw an Eastwood matte black Rust Encapsulator paint job on it and drive it as is. You'd be surprised at how many heads it would turn, ppl love seeing these old cars on the road regardless of condition.

You’re overwhelmed just a tad. I’m glad I’m not the only person that jumps around doing too many things instead of just focusing on one project at a time. Fix the rust, prime and paint it. Work on everything else in time.

Vcs são os maldito partido das treva bando urubus

Seems like your torn between Unburden yourself or Enjoy the project. It's OK to let go. You will miss it, you will be sad because you feel like you accepted a defeat. But I would see it as something I was into once, and had fun with, but no longer need. If you were still excited about building it you would be making a completely different video. I'm in the camp of see what you can assemble and see if that spark comes back. And if you find the project is more of a burden than a pleasure then that should be the answer.

In the "parts car" scenario, what about transforming the Olds into a pickup instead of transferring Olds parts onto one? I have a Ranger stepside box you could use if you went that direction. Making the rear quarters and doors into bed cladding might be easier than doing another set of the inner quarter reconstruction.

Thanks for sharing your video. I have the same job coming up on my old 1986 Chevy van. Your video helped me out a lot and I appreciate it. Thanks again for sharing. Take care and God Bless.

Any update on the seatbelt arrangement?

I think that headliner shell will come out with the front seats removed. That splayed apart rear suspension was quite a thing to behold. Instead of double-wishbone it was more of a double-femur-triple-tibia-sacrum setup.

Ferrari beige metallic, awesome!

You can never have too much beige

Great video. I have a 95 Chevy G20 and wanted to put a Grant Steering Wheel on it. What type of adapter did you use and how did you go about installing it?

I had the same issue. The service center told me a module had to be replaced, but that component turned out to be unavailable. Fast forward about 6 months and I came across this video. I followed your instructions and lo and behold: it worked! Thanks!

Thanks for the honest review!!!!

Perfect video no one else shows how to do it step by step man thank you

If you didnt over heat the prius, there's no reason to have it machined and remove material, potentially changing the compression ratio. We do those in 6 hours, if you are DIY handy, its a weekend job. Use updated OEM headgasket and head bolts, clean EGR system and you will be good for another 200k

At least it happened in the driveway to start with and not on the road. You persevered and got it done. I was similarly fortunate after I collected all new brake parts for my '95 G20 to completely rebuild the system (after noticing both wheel cylinders and the driver caliper slightly leaking). I was idling for 10 minutes while reading on my phone. I turned the lights on to get ready to leave and noticed the temp gauge was at the halfway mark. I drove it in a circle and needle went back down to 195°. I popped the hood and got out to look for any leaks and touched the radiator cap.....not even warm. I went ahead and removed the cap....and chocolate milkshake came out. The coolant was bright green when I last checked it three weeks before and always maintained 195° temp. Engine oil was thankfully clean. Failed oil cooler in the radiator. I flushed the system with water multiple times, replaced the radiator, thermostat, water pump, radiator hoses and heater hoses. I twisted the now discontinued aluminum upper oil cooler line and got extremely lucky at a salvage yard that had a new arrival '93 G30 that had the original oil cooler lines intact. This was one day after the same yard *cut* the oil cooler lines on another Gvan minutes after I noticed they were intact and in good shape. I walked away for 10 minutes to see about parts for a friend's car. I was extremely frustrated because there were no other known Gvans at any local yards. But the new arrival '93 saved the day and kept me from having to brainstorm custom lines. So now with the cooling system new I flushed the heater core with a transfer pump, pulled the block drain plugs and flushed the block through the upper heater hose. After 5 cooling system flushes with a mixture of distilled water and trisodium phosphate I'm still getting chocolate water out of the radiator. Going to keep flushing until it's clean.......then finally get back to brake job that's been old hold during this debacle!

Well done and glad you made the discovery in the driveway! Inspired some trepidation, though, brakes seem fine but crossmember was fully packed with dirt and they were sitting inside, unions also definitely crustier than yours. Maybe a summer project, thanks for the good documentation.

I just had to replace a cylinder in my right rear drum brake on my 95 G20! Now i am dealing with the shift Solenoid in the transmission. As well as changing the trans filter and gasket and the output shaft seal. Been a week lol. You are a beast tho. Your channel definitely has been inspiring!

Dude you are a stud! Incredible Brake Line Replacement job. I admire your work. And I feel your frustration with Amazon. Im currently working on my 89 G20. The Amazon fuel pump is giving me issues so now I gotta drop the tank again and see why it's not pumping.

What size T bit did you use

A nice fix for a pain in the butt problem!!

Following on my other comment, funnily enough my other winter project is replacing side mirrors with cameras on a Miata. 3D printing housings for that. Trying a rearview motor with integrated screen and a video switcher intended for buses or something. Look forward to following this build as well.

I've been watching these very closely, doing the exact same project on a '90 G20. Thanks for documenting so thoroughly!
