    Such a great sled. Pretty impressive for your first rear engine rebuild. That thing was destined for lawn art but you brought it back to life. been fun chatting about it as you went along. Great job.

    Dang. That's beautiful! Lots of problem solving, but after a lot of hard work the results are amazing. Let it snow!

    Fantastic Build ! I hope you're still going to make more videos ? Maybe start doing some live streams, Reels or make some videos with limited or no editing involved would make it easier. I really don't understand why you do not have more views on you videos. Great Job

      I dunno… it’s weird when people start really recognizing you from your videos. It’s soooooooo much work, and then you gotta film all these stages and edit for hours and hours. I’m hoping to maybe switch platforms at some point and try a different angle to all of this. Thanks for the nice comment

    So…I grew up riding backseat passenger on a 74 Kynx II a 440 and my mother had a Lynx I witha 292. In 79 my dad brought home a Kitty Kat that I thought was a 72 so year matching. Turns out 30+ yrs later it was a 71 but who cares. After being used by a ton of my cousins I restored it for my X gf’s grand kids. I got it back and it’s with a good friends kids

    Where did you say you got the vinyl fabric for the track? Need some for my sno traveller

    • @Letsfixsomething26
      @Letsfixsomething26  Рік тому +1

      Place called Tarpsnow.COM Search 40oz PVC vinyl by the yard. This stuff is insane strong. Melt holes with soldering iron. Good luck this year on the channel!!!

    very impressive job. are you planning to ever paint the chassis? seems like kind of a gamble leaving it rusty.

    • @Letsfixsomething26
      @Letsfixsomething26  Рік тому +1

      No way!! Chicks dig patina! There are some plans in my head to make a new cab but for now… it’s gonna stay “original”. It’s well oiled.

      @@Letsfixsomething26 okay then. to me, it would feel like a job unfinished, but to each their own. either way, it's an impressive restoration job you did. nice stuff!

    Great job! I’m sure the video process is a bitch. But we all enjoyed the build.

    • @Letsfixsomething26

      Yep, quite a bit of extra work to the end of the build but wanted to record it for sure. Not much out there for 60’s sled rebuilds or repairs. Hope it inspires at least a couple people. Thanks Steve
