- This is our 64 dodge dart station wagon that we purchased in an older video. It has a 170 slant six inline engine and a push button automatic transmission. This car was sitting outside in a driveway for over 25 years. Can we get it running again? Stay tuned for future videos of this car and our many other project cars.

He talks to his son like a colleague. His kid's knowledge is minimal compared to dad, but he will get there very quickly. His son is eager, fast learner, and doesn't complain. I love every minute of these videos. thanks!!!
Thank you 😊
I was thinking that while I was watching this “he’s raisin that boy right “ lol
Want respect show respect! Well done Sir, that boy is gonna be just fine.
Imho, this whole family speaks to me of traditional old American Family values. The way both Ralphie and his sisters are prepared to all “ much in” is incredible!
Did ya ck for spark 1st? Maybe so new plugs
I think its great that your wife and kids are working along side of you on your projects. I am loving this Dart wagon. Its got tons of potential and the slant six will live forever. Great job
Thank you

Slant six is an awesome engine
@@terryrodway1607
No
@@Sleeperdude Fantastic! Gotta love that good old gear reduction Chrysler starter. And good old reliable slant 6!
This car was made in Australia as well as the Chrysler Valiant. They built them at the Chrysler factory in Adelaide South Australia. Great to see this video, really interesting and great to see the fun you and your family have making these videos. 👍🏻
That’s cool thank you
@@SleeperdudeWhat'd you do to that Falcon convertible? I hope you reinforced the frame
An absolute time capsule, not to mention the simplicity of working on these ole vehicles , very nice. You know it’s a Chrysler when hearing that starter cranking over lol. Teaching your son while he’s young is awesome, I learned what I know from my father as well.
Thank you, yeah those starters sound awefull
@@Sleeperdude oh yeah, they sure do! The 67 Plymouth valiant I had sounded the exact same lol.
After 38 yrs. as a Cadillac line tech I enjoy my diagnosis along with yours. Retired now and don't miss it much really. Looks like the Metalmites have claimed another one. Great vid. Five *****
Thank you I think your right
The Billygoat factor is positively priceless!
Had my dads parents 66 Dart 270 in high school. Great engine. My dad always proud of me working on it. I treated it like it was a new car… he helped a lot too !!!! Thanks for all the great memories. Great family you got there too.
Thank you really appreciate it
Not only are you knowledgeable about the car.
But about people too.
Getting your wife and son involved in the project is a really "good " thing sir.
(Anytime family is united is a good thing.)
I was well pleased to hear that motor turn over again.
Brings back memories.
Wow.
And the slant six is a workhorse.
Well done sir.
I really enjoyed this.
Thank you so much
Those Slant six motors were virtually indestructable! I loved the goat !
Back in the 1970's my wife and I bought several 500,00 cars. Back then you got a car with a perfect body and interior. In the rust belt north. And you could drive it with no problems for years. Miss those days. My first car was a 1965 Mercury Comet four door sedan that my dad bought for me for 75.00 dollars. Transmission was shot, so I went to a local salvage yard and bought a good used transmission for 35.00 dollars. My brother and I installed the good transmission. Drove it for two years before giving it to my sister and she drove it for six years before trading it in on a 1968 Ford Fairlane.
This car looks to be in better shape than some of your finds. The back inside looks remarkable. No rust! Good deal on this 🚗
Thank you
Another amazing video
I'm a Retired Master Certified Technician, from 1966 to 2010 and I've seen a lot of rare cars and even worked on some but that is the FIRST DART station wagon EVER
A lot of people are telling me that
hello Jeffrey how are you doing 😊
@@allysonhanks9159 not interested
@@JHC4949 sorry for bothering you
My parents had a 77 Dodge Aspen Wagon and I was surprised how little the slant 6 had changed since the early 60's ...good memories
Yeah that’s true I had a 78 volare wagon slant 6
Ralphie is a great helper.Rocky eats almost anything.Great start-----Sleepy!
my mother got her first station wagon in 1966 my dad bought a new Plymouth Belvedere II 3 seat model - it was Mom’s first car with power steering and brakes and factory Airtemp air conditioning - she thought she’d died and gone to heaven it had a 318 in it and electric back window
Watching you work on the wagon, with your son, reminds me of working with my dad on car's, thank you
Your welcome glad you liked it
hello Dennis how are you doing 😊
I always love hearing those old cars run again!
Me too
Yes!! So satisfying...
Really great job on this. Sounded like it had no compression when you were cranking and it wasn't starting. Sounds really good though and hardly any smoke. This is going to make a great little family wagon! Rocky is such a hoot!
Yep, thank you
I never seen so a cool Man !! Cool to his Family and Rocky the little Ibex !!! God bless You Sir, and Your Family and by the Way...a Man how loves Animals,he loves Mankind too!!♥ What a great Video for showing, how interressting Young Peoples for old Cars!!!
Thank you I appreciate it
You guys remind me so much of my son and I my son is 14 and he looks a lot like your kid and we watch your videos every night. It’s not unfortunate we do it on purpose because you love your Contant we love Wawa Ralphie, your wife and you please keep up the good videos. We’re gonna order some merch soon sleeper dude rocks.
This is the car that deserves a restoration! It just oozes 1960’s family wagon. That’s a keeper !
Thank you
I love the fact that your son stuck it out and helped you the entire time . My son was the same way and went on to graduate college with his bachelors in psychology but still works on his own car
That’s great
You're right about saving station wagons, especially small, relatively fuel efficient ones!
Yes for sure
My dad had a '63 Dart sedan. Sea foam green. I love the wagon. What a great find!
After many hours and even days of work, suddenly your old engine start running, in this moment your heart is full of joy and your face send it to the world through a big smile......
Yes it was an amazing feeling
I was afraid it didn’t have enough compression to start at first but she fired up and ran like a champ. Looking forward to seeing the next video. I enjoyed the whole family being involved.
I was the same, thanks for watching
Once it got some oil in the bore and friction on those rings it was bound to pop off. You can't kill those slant sixes.
hello how are you doing 😊
Very similar to the Australian AP5/6 Chrysler Valiants. Gotta love that leaning tower of power too!
Yes for sure
We used to say Mopar or no car !!
Omg... I loved when it just started! How freaking awesome!! You really know what you are doing sir, congrats!
And it is amazing that you have your whole family supporting you. Keep up the great work you guys!
Slant six , awesome motor, Newer Upgrades will scare you , Enjoy The Build ...
Had a '65 Belvedere... love that Plymouth starter "whine"
Exactly
Awesome video, she runs! What a sight removing the carpet from the rear. Super clean for 58 years old!
Thank you
Hi;
The reason for the slant is its Chrysler ' s early attempt at ram induction. The long intake runners rammed the mixture into the cylinder giving it 15% more hp than a regular 6 cyl. The engine came in two versions. 170 cubic inches and a 225 inch versio
Michael Rzewuski
Ok thanks
hello how are you doing 😊
I was born in 63 and I can remember my mom and dad having a white car just like the station wagon
I love the kid as an assistant!
Awesome video sir! This really brings back memories... I had a '64 dart wagon like this one in high school. But... It had a 340 4 speed with an 8 3/4 sure grip rear end from a Barracuda Formula S Installed in it, Cragar SS's , wide tires, hurst shifter etc. That little wagon would absolutely haul tail! lol. Good job getting this classic running again!
Thank you so much …
The oil issue on plugs is from the inner seal insert around the plugs . Depends on year some are removable and have gaskets and o rings
Ok I thought so
The spark plug drool tubes take the same o ring as the 426 hemi! Same part number. The tubes are different though. Don't damage them because they are impossible to find.
I love everything about this channel. Great cars, beautiful family, wonderful family values being taught. The way you interact with all your kids really shows how much you value their individual gifts. God Bless and thank you. 🙏 PS. I’m secretly rooting for the RC Cola volcano! Lol.
Thank you I really appreciate it. She thought she had us with the RC
Well said! Great channel!
Hello from London
Loved watching you & family working on those old cars
Lots of love
❤❤❤
I teach wood shop at a high school in rural America. You teaching your kids a useful skill is a priceless gift. The sound of a ratchet reminds me of my time with my Dad in the garage. By the way, your patience you show to your family is wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, great find! My dad and I rescued an abandoned '62 Lancer wagon in 1977. The engine had been run dry, which caused the abandonment. He found a '62 Valiant sedan wrecked with a good engine. That was an aluminum 225 S6, which dropped right in. I drove the resulting "new" car as my very own, first "daily driver" transportation until 1987. By then it was taking too much time to keep it roadworthy (brake slave cylinders froze-up). Sold it to a guy who collected this particular model family for $1200.
Good luck with this project. The stares and comments from people who see it will be worth the effort.
That’s awesome thanks
Cool wagon. Haven't seen one in a long time. My Pa had a two door stick shift that he used as a shop loaner and I drove it a few times. Reliable and good on gas.
That’s cool
At first when I saw it I.thought it was a old.dart
Looking.closer it's a American.car in.the u.s.a yheynever had dodge dart thet.had a SIGNET WHICHLOOKSA LOT DIFFERANT
THAN OUR MODELS FOR A NOTHER EXAMPLE WE HAVE G T,O.OVER IN THE USA THERES IS CALLED A TEMPEST COOL CARS BACK THEN
Back.thenif.yiu.had a station wagon.yougot a better car always ..wagons are heavier and last way longer
A little mopar history in case you didnt know on yhe slant six mopars..they did come in 3diferant sizes
engines 170..198..and 225 I.personaly.prefer the 170 engine we gad online a1967baracu
da it was smaller.in.cid.bbut higher compresion it pulled a lot.more
Same pricable applys 273.vrs 318 273 way faster higher compression again way better moter
Excellent video, bringing back history to life. I know two differences between a 63 and 64 are the grills and the tail lights. They are interchangeable though. The tail lights are unique to the wagons and having been looking for some, are pretty rare.
Ok thank you
Really love the look of this wagon. Defiantly do not see them around often, glad to see it getting the attention it deserves.
Thank you
Really enjoyed this video. Had to hit the like button the moment Rocky stood on your back.
I had a self modified 1965. 225, milled head 0.090, 318 two barrel, 3.91, 8 3/4 positrac axel, factory heavy duty finned drum brakes front, 8 3/4 10" rear drums, 14" wheels, 2 1/2 exhaust w/turbo muffler (reasonably quiet vs glass pack). It would pull trailers or whatever with little effort.
Drag anything thru the intersection.
The low end grunt torque of the 225 was amazing. Longer stroke than a 440.
We had these in Australia, best cars ever made. My Dad had a 66 wagon with a 273 , he bought from my uncle after he drove it from Katherine in the northern territory to Melbourne with no oil . He got it rebuilt and some work done , used to beat 351s easy. My mate has just rebuilt a 65 AP5 sedan with the slant 6. Great old beast. The later ones in Australia had our Hemi 6 and they would make 300 Hp easy. The early 70 model VG valiant was a very good car with the 245 Hemi. The ones after had 265s and they went so hard and lasted forever. I've always had a 77 regal se 318, did 750,000 klms with a stock 318 fireball , we didn't have much polution crap until 78 so cars were very fast if you pur a 4bbl on. Now it's got a nice 360 ,Edelbrock heads and all the good gear. 450hp . Wife found a 67 impala factory rh drive Holden had sent over here back then. They are a beast of a thing, 327 should hammer. Used Edelbrock heads and roller rockers with a Lunati voodoo cam and lifters. The 327 revs like 318 except the heads suck on 318s. The young bloke there is going to be a genius with cars . Good man keep him learning.
Thank you. Yes I hope he continues to enjoy the car stuff
When checking the transmission fluid level on a '64, you're supposed to run it through all the gears first. You mentioned hydraulic lifters earlier in the video. I'm pretty sure it has solid lifters. Yeah, I've owned two '64s in my life. Love that pushbutton transmission.
Ok thank you
Love that car. She's gonna be beautiful going down the road. Love to see kids like Ralfie getting involved. I was like that myself. Keep it up young man.
Thank you
Gotta love when your goat helps out around the shop
It's surprisingly clean and barely rusted...
Haha, Rocky is getting more and more nuts with every video. I love how he casually jumps on your back while you keep on working :)
You can watch him and see what he’s thinking. He’s hilarious
@@Sleeperdude Goat Yoga?
Heck's was a department store chain from West Virginia. They had over 150 stores throughout several states, mostly Mid-Atlantic, a little of the Midwest, Virginia, NC, and Maryland. They started going broke in the mid-'80's.
The filter is "Private" label for them, mostly likely made by Purolator under contract.
I remember Heck's. And Hill's.
Ok thank you I had never heard of them before
@@Sleeperdude funny thing? I'm a military brat, grew up overseas most of those years. But did have to live in Dayton, Ohio and remember them- never went In the stores, 😆
I think you beat me to it about Hecks, lol. Yes, that filter was likely a re branded Purolator. Are you from that area @olikat8?
Hecks.an hells.
Love this vid! Those old MOPAR slant sixes were great cars. I like the flat inner fender wells; they are a great place to set tools. And getting the young folks interested in a family project is commendable. Love it when the young fellow said, "Maybe it's not getting gas." How many young people know anything outside the world of video games? I did get a bit nervous when you injected gasoline into the carb. I would have tried ether first. Glad you still have your eyebrows. Anyway, thanks for posting. (Many years ago my buddy and I swapped a four speed into a three speed Valiant. No mods needed. He said three speeds weren't enough; a "bridge was needed between second and high. I've got a lot of MOPAR stories.)
Thank you so much
Miss the days you could sit on fenders swing your feet & change the plugs.(exaggerating....a little🤣)
@@roberttyrrell2250 You're not exaggerating much, my friend!
That Rocky ,I tell ya, he's such a Hard Worker, and Inspector 🤣😂😂🤣
I am a new subscriber Jan 2024 going back and watching all your old videos and have watched you say this comment several times. I don't know if anyone has mentioned it, but if you pull around a snatch block pulley to reverse the direction of the pull, it does not double the power of your winch. The tension in the cable is exactly the same as if you were straight pulling (assuming a theoretically frictionless pulley). Pulley friction can increase the tension, but that's probably negligible.
Only by pulling from the winch, to a pulley, and then back to the same point as the winch would you double the pulling power of your winch because then two lines are pulling in the same direction splitting the tension between the two. Also you have to pull twice as much line in this scenario to move the object the same distance.
Love the work, the content, and the vibe of your channel for sure. Keep up the great work and it's awesome you've been able to turn this in to your full time gig.
Ok thanks for watching
Man I love that wagon!! Can't beat those slant 6 engines!!! Love what y'all do brother!!! Old cars have always brought families together. One way or another.
Thank you
The leaning tower of power! That’s a cool find! I’m a big fan of the wagons and that one looks awesome, rocky is one heck of a detail man lol gonna have her spit shined in no time
Thank you I love wagons too
Josh and Tosh, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful family with us! I absolutely enjoy every video you guys put out! Keep up the good work!
Very good that he is showing his son mechanic we work
The goat just climbing everywhere was so funny.
Glad you enjoyed it thank you
That is the old Slant Six motor, that is one to the best engines that Chrysler ever made as long as it has not been hot. That engine does not like to be run hot at all
Ok thanks
Great video. Awesome to see you get her running again. Sounds good for as long as she had been sitting. Glad to see how much fun thst was to watch!
Thank you I appreciate it
Great job getting the car running and yep once the compression built up she turned right over. Keep up the great work.
Thank you
WOW! It sounded smooth when that thing finally cranked up! Blew a bunch of junk (and roaches) out of the exhaust! Great sound!! Just need a muffler and you are on your way! I love the sound of a straight six, the car manufacturers went way off course when they stopped building the straight 6! Of course, you just might want to loosen up those front wheel bearings a bit! That kid will never get sick. Eating off the floor with a goat and popping a soda from the bottom of a dirty shoe! Priceless!
Thank you I appreciate it
Hi
I agree. Was born and raised on a farm. Had many times ate lunch without access to water to wash the hands. Don't want to get into more detail don't want to gross people out on here.😂
I'm so delighted man.Inwanna see the full video after restoration.Mucj love from Uganda
Just stumbled upon your channel and man I dig it. Love how engaged the family is.
Thank you I appreciate it, I am blessed
Love the 64 darts! I've owned mine since '74.
Yes the accelerator plunger is a leather cup, not always so, but it's fairly common on many cars of that vintage. I usually soak the leather cups in oil, before I install them.
Also, don't scrimp on the hydraulic brake parts. That is a single reservoir master cylinder. You lose pressure at any point in the system, you've got nothing but your e-brake. When my wife was driving my 63 dart, the left front flexible brake line blew and she had no brakes coming down a steep hill in Seattle. Somehow she survived the big hill, and continued driving home REALLY slowly, using the auto trans park pawl when she HAD to stop.
Oh wow that’s a crazy story, thanks for the info
i had a 1965 AP6 regal safari wagon - white blue interior 273 v8 a904 auto and a good diff ! - disc brake front and extractors .
That sounds fun
Of course it runs, the Chrysler slant six was as reliable as the tide and taxes! I love the starting sound of slant sixes with gear reduction starter. I've had many, brings back lots of good memories. Can you show a close up of your flip flop beer opener and how it works?
Memories yes! We had a 62 dart slant we used to race around in the woods when I was a teen, fun! 😁
Yes they are good reliable engines. The flip flops are made by reef
Had my doubts for it to run. Sounded like no copression, but perserverance saved the day. The ignition switch is easily removed. Take it to a locksmith, he'll cut a key by code. Good luck on the wagon, they just don't make them anymore.
@@jeromebreeding3302 while the designed compression is higher it will frequently run with much lower compression, often below 85 psi.
@@Sleeperdude Don't cotton to flip-flops around a mechanics shop To easy to drop something and lose your toes. Even stubbing a toe, would be very painfully.
Had a 65 Valiant wagon. Starter solenoid went out. Started it with a screwdriver, drove to the parts store, disconnected the battery, leaned over the drivers fender took out the starter got another and replaced it like I took it out. I’d love to own your Dart!
That’s awesome it may be for sale at some point
Awesome!!! Gotta love that Rocky guy!!!
Instead of gravity feeding the carburetor, try gravity feeding the fuel pump to prime it, then tap on the valves to try to free them up just like the float valve.
Ok thanks
@@Sleeperdudehi
The old leaning tower of power runs pretty darn good! Great show guys! 👍
Thank you
GREAT series! LOVE the fact you include your family!! Show us more on this wagon!
Glad you enjoyed it thank you
Nice! My 66' Plymouth Valiant fired off right away after sitting for 6 years, with a new battery. Those old slant 6's are awesome. It's the 225, and it was my daily driver for the past 5 years. Decided to restore her last year.
That’s great
I bet this cute little wagon was gorgeous when it rolled off the assembly line - that is a factory roof rack - which were fairly rare - is this a 2 or 3 seat model - I’m guessing a 2 seat model since 3 seat models came with a standard power rear window - one of my mother’s first cars was the 4 door sedan version of this wagon - no air conditioning or power steering or brakes but it did have the push button Chrysler Corp Torque Flite transmission - it had those same Dart badges on each front fender
So cool
You guys seem to be a very lovely family, great to involve everyone.
I wish I would have such knowledge on cars, its super interesting.
Thank you
Remember to always spray the starting fluid at the same time your turning the car over . And from what I remember when I had my 64 . I had to put the pedal to pump it and then put the pedal to the floor. To start it when cold .
Ok thank you
Love the way you and your son and beautiful wife have a great fun time bringing old cars back to life
I am blessed thank you
Accidentally found this channel and fell in love with the goat❤️and the Dart!
Grandpa had a 63 Dart 270 with the 225 slant 6!
Best engine ever he’d boast💯
That’s awesome thanks for watching
We call that engine the SLANT 6, because of the way it is built.
Awesome
Saw this video because of UA-cam algorithm.
Love this,the whole family (and goat) works on this project..
Yes thank you ..
Probably one of my favorite videos so far. From the “r u n n o f t” joke and Ralphie’s “whuuuut” response, to Rocky climbing up your back to get on the roof it was epic. It was funny when Ralphie tried to scare you when you hooked up that battery. You know darn well you would have done the same if he had been the one hooking it up. Then to finish things off your wife tried to give you a shower of RC Cola lol. Seems like humor is lost on so many folks these days, it’s nice to see you guys having so much fun.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it. Yes Ralphie is a true prankster he is always after his mom with something.
Rocky was definitely the star of this episode 😂😂 Of course you can’t get germs from eating viennas. They’re germ killers!!😂😂
Exactly
Come on
I've been working at a body shop for a bit now and extra tips I learned was if you're painting the door, it's better to take off the mirror and belt molding (the trim at the bottom of the window) for a better paint job in the end. The mirror can get in the way, and if you're unlucky, the clear coat could stick in that gap between the door and the belt molding
Old moter sounds good put some new plugs in it and change to oil and its ready fir a burnout lol. Good job I like the way your training your son and the goat
Thank you I appreciate it
Gotta big smile on my face my dad had a 4 door dodge same year it was tan with red interior. When I was five there’s pices of me helping him change the tire on the car. Those adds really brought a lot of memory’s back to me thanks.😊
Awesome!!
You have a great family & love watching your adventures! It's awesome how you find these great & cars
and get them going. I know how hard you work at real jobs, the cars and youtube. Thanks for all you do!!
Thank you I appreciate it it’s a lot of work
At least he is getting properly compensation for what he dies and knows. I have rarely got that.
I love that old dart I can't wait to see you guys clean it up and get it completely on the road.
Thank you
I’ll say , from the thumbnail , this model year clearly shows how innovative the Plymouth was . The body lines clearly show how the rear window , sail panel , deck lid and trunk and rear clip was remodeled to make a station wagon body without too much change .
That was as clever as it was ingenious . Rocky was great help . In addition to absolutely cracking me up , rocky will take care of ridding the valiant of its unneeded excess body scaling . This start up was nail biting . It had me wondering if pulling the valve cover to free up the valves was necessary . Carbon build up on the valves was taken care of with the rev up time up 👍. If I were there , I would have been kneeling and praying to the almighty tower of power ! After all the hibernation , it roared to life and doesn’t sound too bad at all !
Yeah , the brake drums will have a future episode of making use of t-your drum puller . Well , the expense of the tool will help you get your moneys worth . In that respect , pay for itself ? Once again , another successful carb rebuild / refresh . I should remember the carter Yf parts since I’ve been through a few but I rely on rebuild sheets and call it good , sorry . It’s been since my junkyard days since I’ve seen a push button drive auto trans . This is a blast from the past . Accelerator pump cups , yeah , I don’t either know what material they’re made from .
I’m calling this car a survivor . Looking forward to a drive too . Since you , Ralphie , rocky and the girls are on the job , I got my faith 🇺🇸
The start up was nail biting for sure. I didn’t think it was gonna start. Rocky is always a good helper and loves all the crustiness of the cars. Thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed it
Nicely made with Your Son .....
Much Love to Y'all.....🤠❤❤
Thank you

The goat is the star of the show.
For sure

Thank you
Just happen to run across this video I like how you picked a good odd looking station wagon that needs a little help I respect how you have your son working on the cars Right next to you I can’t wait for another video on the wagon oh and the goat was killing me too
Thank you
I'm from Mexicali, Mexico, I had one just like it, it belonged to my brother-in-law and he later sold it to me, it was a great vehicle, we had changed the original engine for a 318, and it flew on the highway, back in the 80s, my girlfriend and I we enjoyed traveling in it, it was very good on the road, and very comfortable, too bad I had to sell it due to money problems, it was in the 90s, even today I regret having sold it, I have never seen one like it again and with this video I feel nostalgic, thanks for sharing.

That’s a great story I wish mine had a v8
Omg this is a find of a life time. 😍 I've never been so in love with one of these styled cars!
It is cool
It's easily worth over $300K as it sits
@@wileecoyote5749 how so?
@@wileecoyote5749 I suspect you been smokin some wacky weed... 64 Darts in immaculate condition on Hemmings are rarely changing hands for more than $3500 to $6500 and something with the hott 273 4barrel 4speed and a convertible might fetch 10k to 14k depending on it's survivor status.....
But $300k?,,,, only if you bought one that came with a FREE HEMI Cuda to boot.
Wow, what a find and it has all the glass intact?
My parents had a 65 station wagon with the 170 slant six and three on the tree. It was a tank until my brother rolled it.
Yes thank you
This wagon has been an easy revival so far, and on 25 or more year old spark plugs. You might not need a big envelope to get this one going and sold. it must be nice to have a bit of an easy win so far. I know it isn't finish, but I hope it is a sign of things to come.. Great find. It was funny seeing you all trying to push the car into the workshop. It was even more funny seeing the way your wife was rocking the car as you were pulling it up the trailer. Her style was something else 🤣🤣🤣🤣. It must be great having her hands on support.
Thank you. Yes it’s always good to get one going . She is great and always is helping
Love it. My dad always said that a slant 6 will run forever
👍
Score! We had a 63 Lancer when I was a kid, wish I had it now! I just scored a 66 Rambler American wagon straight 6 auto 33000 miles, just got her running, looking for front brake drums, mine hasnt run since 93. My kid now regrets not spending time out with my tinkering on all the old junk i seek out. Great video.
Nice thanks for watching
That was so cool to hear it start for the first time in a long time . Sounded great.
Thank you
