bro I have a 1981 f100 getting a transmission put in it since it hasn't had one in the truck for about 6 years good thing is I got the motor and everything else to work I just need a second gas tank since one of the 2 don't work
When I was 14,, I rode on wiper cowl Ona ""bandit" trans am,, that had the hood stolen,, pouring shots of moonshine in can carb because we ran out of gas about 2 miles from dudes grandpa's house... what a blast that was
This might have been your finest video, great to see so many different generations of friends bonding over a family car and memories. I really hope you all come back to this one soon.
Tom's dad was about to say it's been sittin for 'twenty'-something years. I totally feel him , because we all know that the 80s will always be twenty years ago!
Kevin, Angus, Tom, both Dad's AND JOHN ?! Dayum, you're spoiling us with something extra for the missed episode awhile back while you were helping people after that tornado. Thank You Kevin for being so awesome.
Adding Angus full time was the best decision ever. He is hilarious, y’all are hilarious. Just a great combo and definitely adds to the content in so many ways. Keep on keepin on brother!
Tom's dad is an absolute legend for riding the kart like a chariot to try and get it to fire off! I feel like i could sit for hours hearing all of the stories from Tom and his dad about the things theyve done and built. That thing is hoenstly a piece of history, that was cheap ingenuity back then for a fun little toy. I dont think any backyard-built kart nowadays could compare to what that was back then. Hopefully maybe you return to it someday and can get some life out of it. Great video you guys!
I think I'd like to see this goofy contraption return sooner rather than later. It's ridiculousness is just so much fun to look at. Power Tour should offer a lot of time to come up with some ideas.
It's really fun to see everyone come together like Tom and his dad and Kevin's dad as well.Tom's dad must be a trove of information and very cool to see him tinker on projects
Kevin you are living the dream! Great family and friends in the heartland of this great country as you revive some classic vehicles. And adding Angus as a regular to your channel was a great idea!
Not only did this episode include some of my favorites in the junkyard digs universe but golden rust or bust makes an appearance!! Can't say there has been a video of yours I haven't watched since 2019. I'm so glad when I say you still act like the Kevin from all those years ago 😂 unlike some other automotive UA-camrs who are lovable yet sold out
Another nice resurrection lady & gentlemen. I appreciate the extra detail you provide verbally on the part you are adjusting or working on. Out of necessity, I do about all the work on my vehicles, two being '79 Pontiacs. It helps a lot when you break it down Barney-style for some of us mechanically challenged DIYers.
It’s awesome to see you working with all the old timers, multi generational love for cars,and anything with an engine. The project might not have run, but it was still a success.
I'm not that knowledgeable with working on cars, but your channel has become one of my absolute favorites! I'm learning a lot, and soon, I hope to get to work bringing my 1975 Glasply 19' runabout back to life! It's powered by a Mercruiser 165, which is an inline 6. Also, you all seem like fantastic people! If you're ever in the Phoenix area again, hit me up! I'd love to treat you to a few cold ones!
I always love the videos with the old timers in them. Old timers are a wealth of knowledge, decades worth, and we all need to get as much from them as we can before they pass. I always tried to get stuff out of my grandfather, whether it was writing it down somewhere or just stashing it away in the 'I'll probably never use this but you never know" box in the back of my mind, and damn did I learn a lot from him about everything.
Ever wondered why humans live so long after reproductive age? It's because getting knowledge from old timers used to be a survival strategy. Your whole tribe could live or die on grandma remembering the location of a waterhole she went to when she was a kid, or grandpa knowing how to catch rabbits when the deer season isn't good. IMO we don't value their memories enough these days. Talking to your oldies is good for you and for them.
My father bartered something for a homebuilt project like that. Had a cracked piston when he got it. He brought it back to life. Said his was like a small tractor. Had dual wheel truck rear end & two 3 speed transmissions somehow connected together in line for super low pulling power. I'm guessing the time frame would have been around 1934 or so.
you know it's good when 8 minutes in there is a team of 6 working on a "go kart." Also I think a roll cage, slicks, mags, and a choppy 454 would look pretty slick on this 29.
same thing with my 51 cranbrook, it was knocking ,90 wt gear oil quieted it down, so rod and main bearings were in order. Drained the oil removed the battery and tipped it up on it's side six hours later all new bearing and a new rear main seal. Put the original oil back in and the cranbrook ran for four more years before the body settled over the frame.
Would love to see a colab between you Dalton (pole barn garage) and Tom doing a budget restoration. You do the mechanics on your channel, Dalton does the bodywork and paint on his channel and then you take the car to Tom's for a budget interior. You can do rock paper scissors to decide whose channel the interior work goes on lol.
Love this vid! Nostalgia, multiple generations hanging and working on stuff, rust, engines, rigging parts up! We just need Mook and some sort of animal and you’d have it all! ❤
ok...things I really appreciate about this episode... 1...the ol' Dodge Bros logo on whatever kinda air filter cover thing was on the carb 2...the two man lathe work...with a vintage Black n Decker angle grinder no less...(ok...I'm guessing its a B & D...sue me) 3...the fact there is almost 3 generations of gear heads under one roof (or ruff as you south of the 49th parallel pronounce it) 4...the lip reading Reycon commercial...did they KNOW you did this?? I'm dying here....oh mah gawd 5...Tom's Dad ghost riding an feedin the ol' girl enough ether to fire the Bismark from the ocean floor even... thanks for coming up with what could have been a Fathers Day Special...but wasn't... cheers from Kelowna BC!
So yesterday I was driving up 35 from Des Moines heading for St. Paul when suddenly I noticed the exit for Ames! I started looking for a Booger truck and an Oldsmobile, but settled for a wave in Ames' general direction. Then when I got to my hotel, I had a beer about it. Cheers!
I had the same problem with the distributor disintegrating in my 1928 Dodge. I found that a small cap HEI distributor from an early '80s chevy v6 was almost a bolt in deal with some modification to the spade on the shaft. It was the vacuum advance version distributor, not the computer controlled one. In 1928 dodge used a continental engine, 1929 was dodge's own engine so it might not be apples to apples, but the thing ran way better with that HEI distributor.
If i had to guess, id say that the valves aren't sealing. I grew up with that era of automobiles ( i was a kid in the 80s). Mostly Ford A,T, and Flathead.
I see that 1937 Chevy parking only sign in the vid. I rebuilt one of those with a rumble seat and mohair interior. Had the "push the throttle all the way to the floor" to engage the starter method. Finished it in a nice med deep blue. The interior was deep beige.
You have found a sweet spot, Angus, Tom, Tom's dad, just add Mook, John and Phoenix and one or two more of the boys and you'd get nothing at all done, but it would entertaining to be sure.
I don’t know what it is about this All-star cast but.. watching this multi-generation collaboration.. makes me smile. There’s a lot of knowledge here and I love seeing it.
This episode was hilarious, that slow pan out at the end to reveal the tractor towing the "car" with Tom's Dad straddling the engine was just art in motion!!! Love it guys!!
I love this show. But this sporadic 2 to 3 weeks for an episode sucks. I figured since you hired someone. We would see more episodes. Or at least a scheduled day for an episode. Sorry bout the bitchin. Again, I love the show. An hope for the best for you guys.
Has to be theeeeee BEST ever Raycon advert EVER!! The video was good too! Loved the collaboration and Tom's Dad on the chassis shooting carb cleaner into the carb BRILLIANT! Thank you Guys Fairly cheered me up and a Soggy Sunday here in County Antrim!!
In CB, Iowa, 1950s--heavy metal-teen friend JS bought a 29 Dodge-4 door sedan-ran good, first model to have mechanical brakes- fun at local drive in when we jumped out to crank start the car. Car ran well .

Come on, man, make a new video.
I love it when Tom and his dad make an appearance.
And Junkyard Digs SR. as well.
You mean Junkyard Dad?
100%
Only in Iowa could you find two people in half a car, being pulled by a tractor, while a third person is feeding the carb! XD Kudos gentlemen!
Not really, @Sleeperdude is in Tennessee and he is doing it with Ford model T ...
@@NenadTrajkovic fair
When I was 14,, I rode on wiper cowl Ona ""bandit" trans am,, that had the hood stolen,, pouring shots of moonshine in can carb because we ran out of gas about 2 miles from dudes grandpa's house... what a blast that was
@@timhouston2408 that sounds like a mad time, very good.
We do it in Europe aswell 😂😂❤
Tom's dad would not give up, hanging on the side of the engine! What a legend 👏
For the longest time I was thinking, why isn't someone riding that frame rail? 😂
Ed is something else!
Was thinking the same thing. Legend!
If he's doing stuff like that at his current age imagine the stuff he did in his teens and 20's. Ed's a gem
This might have been your finest video, great to see so many different generations of friends bonding over a family car and memories. I really hope you all come back to this one soon.
Tom is a legend😂. I’m glad y’all are including him in more videos
Actually he's annoying.
Glad to see Tom making more appearances, Kevin. Seems like a very likeable guy. Hoping to see him more!
So many Generations and friends working/macguyvering together on an old car, having fun and having a beer about it. So awesome :D
When people ask "what do you do for fun in the country?" I'm sending them this video. This is exactly what fun looks like 🤘
Tom's dad was about to say it's been sittin for 'twenty'-something years. I totally feel him , because we all know that the 80s will always be twenty years ago!

that father, son "what is that?" @7:01 lol
Idk dad left before I was born lol
"What is that?" In unison, haha. perfect.
Loving Tom in almost every new episode and Tom's dad is cooler than the other side of the pillow
Jesus Christ I love when Angus and you are doing the Raycon segment. I’m literally in tears!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The plumb bob demands sacrifice each January whether the left nipple gets hard or not.

I think I'd like to see this goofy contraption return sooner rather than later. It's ridiculousness is just so much fun to look at. Power Tour should offer a lot of time to come up with some ideas.
Watching Tom's dad riding the chassis feeding ether into the carb was priceless!
My wife was watching Tom's dad ride on that frame juicing the engine and said "This is why men die first."
It's really fun to see everyone come together like Tom and his dad and Kevin's dad as well.Tom's dad must be a trove of information and very cool to see him tinker on projects
This channel should be so much bigger by far my favorite UA-camr
❤love this channel as well
Kevin you are living the dream! Great family and friends in the heartland of this great country as you revive some classic vehicles. And adding Angus as a regular to your channel was a great idea!
Man, this was seriously impressive. Loved seeing the Dad’s get involved.
It makes me so happy to see you getting to do all of these things with all of your seniors, the stories, the skills… amazing

JOHN’s BACK!
Love it when John is around
Hey ! I am John. And my back is fucked up. I know whattcha mean.
Hey, I heard John got the job as police finally. Is that true?
Hey thanks for all the likes and the comments happy y’all missed me 😊
@@goldenrustorbust John, the mullet/ mustache combo is superb, my good sir!
Be grateful your dads are still around, cherish them because they don't last forever, god bless and keep the rubber side down fellas!!
R.I.P pops.

What an old thing! Glad you made a video on a car from below the 40s. Cars were truly beautiful back then. In my opinion.
Hoping that you, Mook, Angus, Tom, John and Luke make it to Iowa speedway this coming weekend. Have a great week.

Had dual wheel truck rear end & two 3 speed transmissions somehow connected together in line for super low pulling power. I'm guessing the time frame would have been around 1934 or so.
It’s a trip to get older and revisit toys. Time is crazy. Things that are in the minds eye “new”. It’s fun to be able to hold on to everything!
you know it's good when 8 minutes in there is a team of 6 working on a "go kart." Also I think a roll cage, slicks, mags, and a choppy 454 would look pretty slick on this 29.
15:20 Tom and your dad are freakin awesome together in a video. Most of the JYD greats in a video, we were SPOILT this week, thank you Kevin!
Tom is a great addition to the channel, but we need more Mook and burnt Nova!
finally a video where the all crew's back together! It's always good to see the old timers teaching the new kids some tricks. Well done Kevin.
… I miss my dad and wish we would have come together like this as a bigger family / team. Looks so fun
Love that we’ve been seeing a lot of Tom. He’s such a great fit with the jyd fam.
John's got the most idaho hot-boy hairstyle I've ever seen. I'm guessing he's drowning in it...
John always seems to show up when only the craziest of country contraptions are being worked on, love it!
Nice to have John on a JYD video!
So much knowledge in that garage. I love & miss old school wrenching.
I love Tom's enthusiasm " This will never work" 🤣
Perfect Father's Day video. Awesome seeing you guys working together.
"you didn't fall through the seat, you were just heavier than Angus" what a closing line

On another note, how about the three beautifully restored cars lingering in the background?? 💯👌👍🏻
when Dad is involved in the case, it feels like I'm watching JunkyardDigs with Jack Nicholson! It's amazing!)) you are really uplifting! thanks
A Dad and Son fun day. Love to see it. How about alittle more of these.😂😊
Yessssssss, wooohooooo the mullet is back !

36:09 now that's what memories are made of.
I love these older revivals also what happened to the toasty toad and limo turbo.
11:59 that looks like a cool recovery video waiting to happen!
Oldest thing on the channel.
And it’s a Mopar 🤘🏼
👍
What an EPIC automotive comedy team!
Can we get a "I'll give ya 3 haircuts for it" t-shirt with a line art picture of the car please? Pretty please with proper spark and timing on top?

Beautiful everything in this video. From the community to the Raycon add. Gold stuff
