Me like yourself and the 57 peeps b4 me was sure it was not going to break free and then go and fire off and consume a volitle breath spuuter and finally exhale back to life. Mr. Richard Thomas how could we have even doubted the inevitable outcome?. This man is Top Shelf in All He Does so between Jen and Chris or 'ChrisJen' they are going to raise one heck of a crafty DIYer in their household that may just outpace the both of them once they hit their mid 40's.
That trailer coupler ain't goin' NOWHERE !!! 🤣 You are a genuinely kind person Chris, most folks would've verbally crucified the guy that worked on your trailer, but... you showed his failures and laid the blame on his equipment. Most folks wouldn't have done that. God sees how you treat people, and... He is pleased. 😇
I agree, the guy who did the work, put a lot of effort into fixing it up, redoing the welds was a small task compared to it, so I get why Chris approached it the way he did. I am sure he wants to be able to ask the guy again for similar work.
I've tried watching other channels with similar content, some bigger, some smaller, but I just found Chris's way of narration, humor and editing coupled with his technical expertise very entertaining and refreshing , not to mention Jen's cameos every once and a while.
Yes, I have to agree, as I too enjoy Chris's narration and humour, and wonder with their daughter on the way, if that might slow them down a bit, but still, if the video's continue for years to come, we'll all get to know the little one as well. Jen's a gem, and I enjoy her channel as well.
You gotta love Chris’s commitment to answer the questions we all really want to know. He’s definitely going to make a great dad and teach his child a massive wealth of knowledge!
No doubt. I just love these kind of channels. The channel name says it all. The addition of Jennifer.. Gus.. Turbo.. just makes it perfect. The unplanned pregnancy made it even better. The little one is going to have such great parents. Bless this family 🙏
You know how to create a decent video, Chris. It doesn't matter the subject. For some reason, you keep me glued to it all the way to the end. Keep 'em coming bro.
Agreed. I wanted to say, don't be shy. Comments help the algorithm and it doesn't matter what you type. Just add a Right on! a Cool, or interact with someone else's comment. Every once in awhile I toss in a random comment here or there just whatever was on my mind and it ends up leading to some kind of fun interaction with either the channel host or maybe one of the other subscribers.
Man, for $150 what a deal. You can't go wrong ! The hood is worth more then $150 alone. And the 390 probably a 4 bbl ! The motor alone is worth some money 💰 🤑! ! Great 👍 video Sir.
Dude, that car looked so happy on the trailer as you were going through the town. Imagine believing you were being left to die? Then one day someone shows up with a trailer and digs you out. How awesome is that!
It met its end either way, the buyer sadly used it for parts. That last breath it got from running under its own power was the final hurrah. Too bad he didn't try to toss it in gear, I was curious.
This is my 93 yr old Dad's (still with us!!!) favorite car of all time. I remember as a youngster, we'd see one driving by, he'd point it out and say, "Some day when I get rich, I'll buy one of those!". Of course, life got in the way, him and my Mother, God rest her AWESOME soul, worked bloody hard to raise my four siblings and I, and to make sure we never went without. We were never rich, but we never doubted they loved us. I remember when I was a know-nothing selfish "tweener" and there was a school Halloween carnival that I wanted to go to so bad (cause there'd be girls there!) that my Dad said he'd take us to, well, the time came and went and Dad didn't get home till hours after the carnival was over. I threw a mini-tantrum,slammed a few doors, said some things I wished I could take back, but I got over it. Years later I learned my Dad had taken a second job to make ends meet. Never complained, never made excuses, never shoved it in our faces, just fulfilled his responsibilities as a father to his family. Gets me choked up just to type this, thinking of ALL the sacrifices they made on our behalf. My God, we've been blessed to be raised by such selfless, nurturing parents.
....absolutely awesome video....reminds me of my former years when I rescued a '61 Ford Falcon wagon and a '62 Ford Tbird......not only did you capture the '61 Tbird rescue on video, but you captured awesome nature scenes driving thru the small towns....you are truly a Renaissance man....thanks from a 73 year old gearhead...
When that 390 finally broke loose it sounded like Chewbacca taking a dump! I honestly thought the engine was not going to move. I admire your perseverance!
You are correct sir, you’ve got a problem! However it’s an entertaining one! I’m an old car guy working down my collection, only around 40 more to go and over have run so I’m good. That 61 reminded me of my old 62 that I sold about 5 years ago. I still have 10 t birds plus a 55 factory go cart. Too many toys and not enough $$$$ or birthdays left to finish em all, but keeps me occupied
When I come up behind a car that has that headliner flapping in the breeze 40:26 I'm giving them all the road and my sympathies. Chris, you have superpowers when it comes to these neglected and abandoned heaps. Respect!
I would have been the same way. I would have wanted to get it running once I knew the engine was unseized and the valvetrain was not broken. Good ole valve persuasion via hammer!
@@HighSierra1500I feel certain there are other men of his similar age who have his skill-sets but they might not all have his charm at presentation because he sure makes it interesting...
HEY CHRIS ,, THESE OLD THUNDER CHICKENS ARE GREAT OLD CARS, BUT I THINK IT A PARTS CARS, GREAT WORK GETTING IT OUT .. AND SHOWING US THE OLD ENGINE THATS RUNNGING NOW ,, GOT IT SOLD , GREAT JUNK YARD . THX.
Man, that is too funny, you were only 10 minutes from where I live! I am in UBE, in PA right across from Milford NJ. You were driving on a lot of the roads I like to cruise around on with my Foxbody. Too bad I didn't see you on the road, that would have been awesome! 29 is one of my favorite roads to cruise with the beautiful scenery.
UA-cam is a mystery sometimes as far as what comes up in the right hand side menu "suggestions". I've never seen this channel. I do watch Derek of ViceGrip fame who first may have coined "Will It Run?". You take this question to a whole new level! It helps that you do your work where you have your workshop, whereas ol' Derek does it on-site. Two different ways, both cool. Note: I'd never have believed, after looking at those cylinders that that engine would ever have run without a complete overhaul. Any way you're an excellent example of how to make money by work and knowledge and persistence. Money IS work. Lots of folks forget that. 🙄
The rusty car at 42:17 is a Triumph Mayflower built in the UK from 49-53. Alloy head on a cast iron block. They would seize on - almost impossible to remove due to corrosion. I just love the Thunderbird. All the late 50s to early 60s cars were so cool. Shame it's rotted out.
Lol, yeah I kind of feel the same way honestly. I didn't want to say that though. Definitely really neat concept and pretty cool that he made a lot of money doing it so clearly there are people into that look.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I suppose those kit cars would likely be cheaper than buying a genuine 57 Chevy or a 40 Ford. My Dad had a 40 when he made me, 64 years ago(lol).
Mega skilled and with loads of stubborn determination to reach your goals + a video camera documenting your journeys make this a new favorite channel for me. I just stumbled upon this channel last night and I am so glad that I did...Getting that 390 to run again was truly remarkable. Now I have a lot of your videos to catch up on. Keep them coming.
man seeing how far gone that was and hearing how smooth it ran afterwards is mind blowing. Im glad your fk it i wanna hear it any ways mindset twisted your arm to keep going with it. Also a couple washers behind the spare will help
Hey Chris I believe they make tuning kits for the vacuum secondaries. They come with weaker and stronger springs. You may be able to just put a weaker spring in and they will open under load.
Chris Hi Friend I appreciate what you do in these videos ,you and your wife !! And the dog and cat is awesome to !! Plus Pa here as well and i also love the classic cars and trucks !! So keep up the great work 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😃😃💪💪👍👍👍
Great video, I always learn something while watching your videos. We are from Ohio and just stayed in Riegelsville Pa. for 8 days and visited many small towns up and down the Delaware River, including Frenchtown and New Hope. We loved every minute of it, beautiful area full of history.
The trim, glass, door handles, and insignia badges… etc are all easily worth $150. People don’t think of how much value there is in all the small, nearly impossible to find parts.
@46:30 I would bet that the secondaries are not opening because they are hitting that plate the adapter plate. Check that when you go to put it back on sit down and run a flathead screwdriver down inside and open the butterflies up and see if they get that plate first.
I rebuilt a 1967 mustang in 1987... rebuilt the Trans in autoshop... put in a shift kit.. put in new brakes.. rebuilt the front and rear suspension.. worked like a dog... to buy all the parts... it had the hi performance 289.. that's why I like your channel... you rescue.. cars no one wants... you use what you have.. every time I watch your videos.. I am thinking of what you should do next.. and you think the same thing... Thanks chris.. if I lived in that part of the country.. we would be great buddies..
"Will it run? Yes! Why? 'Cause I got problems!". I loved that response. Chris, you truly are a master technician and I envy your automotive abilities. Hats off to you and a definite two thumbs up to you, buddy.
he did thank him. Besides, man didn't wanna sit there for a while with his foot on the gas, and just wanted to get the damn thing home. Can't say I blame him, especially if he was there for a while.
I admire your ability to see things through. You got it to run!!!!By the way if you want something done right, you must do it yourself. Nice job on the welds.
Good on you for cleaning your trailer before hitting the road. I see so many people with rocks and debris on trailers. Dangerous for everyone else. Thanks for your consideration 👍
I can never get over the way people leave a car for "storage", bad enough they leave it outside in the open but they really screw up by not making sure the windows are up and the air cleaner is in place.
Reminds me of the old story about a guy whose car breaks down a block from a service station, he pushes the car there, tells the mechanic what happened, the mechanic pulls out a stethoscope, takes a listen, gets his ball peen hammer and carefully takes a whack at a specific spot. The mechanic tells the guy that that will cost him $50.00. The guy is shocked, and says, "I could have done that with my hammer". The mechanic replies, "I don't think so! I knew where to hit!" You, sir, are Mr. Determination, Mr. KnowHowToDoIt. Nice job.
I'll say it again, such an interesting place you live, Chris. HISTORY! Speaking of which, my Grandparents had a '65 T-bird. I was only 3 years alive at that point, but I still vividly recall sitting in the drivers seat and being fascinated by the switches in the center console, all the stainless steel around me, and how different it was from our no options '53 Chrysler.

Neither of those "bath Fitter" kits made the cars look like anything but a poorly designed body kit. lol
As far as welding goes..... learn the heat ranges know when high heat is needed.the trailer needed to be hotter.. great score dude
I can never get over the way people leave a car for "storage", bad enough they leave it outside in the open but they really screw up by not making sure the windows are up and the air cleaner is in place.
People are dumb...
Way to get the old ford’s motor running. Always a joy to see Gus and Turbo. Thanks Chris.
Reminds me of the old story about a guy whose car breaks down a block from a service station, he pushes the car there, tells the mechanic what happened, the mechanic pulls out a stethoscope, takes a listen, gets his ball peen hammer and carefully takes a whack at a specific spot. The mechanic tells the guy that that will cost him $50.00. The guy is shocked, and says, "I could have done that with my hammer". The mechanic replies, "I don't think so! I knew where to hit!" You, sir, are Mr. Determination, Mr. KnowHowToDoIt. Nice job.
Never watched a video with so many commercials. But great content. 👍
Dog looks at him to say " are you f,***Ng serious ," 😂😂
i’m a resident of frenchtown area, glad you came through my town :)
I'll say it again, such an interesting place you live, Chris. HISTORY! Speaking of which, my Grandparents had a '65 T-bird. I was only 3 years alive at that point, but I still vividly recall sitting in the drivers seat and being fascinated by the switches in the center console, all the stainless steel around me, and how different it was from our no options '53 Chrysler.
Camaro convertible in the background looks like a fun video. also the welds look like he did it with a car battery.
