- Sorry, some of you have seen the beginning of this video. For some reason it only uploaded half of the video.
Here is the full version! Most of you have seen us drag 6 corvettes out of a garage and bring them to our shop, if not go check out our latest videos. Here are the three that are most complete cars that we try to get running. One is a numbers match 327/365 that still has its original paint! The big block 66 is a numbers match 427/390 horse car. Then there is a custom 63 with fender flairs slot wheels! Some of these cars have been off the road since the late 70s early 80s!

6 Vettes? Can you imagine the number of hours of ‘Will it run?’ videos you guys can make?! You’ll be over a million subs in no time! Haha jus’kiddin’. Helluva score though!
I wish half a million subs was that easy!
great stuff Jordan.. super fun watching the race cars and some old street runners now too... thanks bro
Thanks for sharing this. Awesome story and really enjoying it.
Thank you for making these videos!! I really enjoy watching you wrench on these cool old cars!!!
My dream cars!!
That green one with the black wheels looks perfect like that👍🏼
I'm jealous of you congratulations from Sweden
Always great content on corvette restore. Can’t wait for more FAST RACING❤
We’re racing this weekend hope to make a few good videos of it!
For just a second my heart skipped a beat. I had a 64 with flared fenders, dark blue, that we installed a 69 Z28 302 in. It was like night and day compared to the original 327. Then I saw your car was a 65. Sure wish I knew whatever became of it, this was Northern California 1971
I had a 69 Z28 302 in my 84 Monte SS with a built transmission...It would chirp them in every gear....Man that was a quick little motor!!!
Since the motor and trans is junk in ole six tail lights, I might as well come get her. Perfect spot for the fresh muncie and small block I have laying here.
The extended video to the first one today, still cool and still waiting for more.
I Friend of when he was a teenager use to use old oil in hi hot rod back in the '60s
For the locked motor ever try tranny fluid or Marvel Mystery Oil, it and old farmers trick for seized motors
Not sure what happened earlier but half the video was not uploaded!
The first video i saw didn't show you trying to start the '63
That body style just does it for me!! Wish I could own one.
It's really not that funny, yet it's funny as hell!! LOL 🤣Beautiful car though, I'm jealous!
Thanks for sharing. 👍
No better looking corvette out there! And yes it’s not funny, but it’s funny! Lol!
The 66 BB Coupe engine was so impressive. I usually put KEROSENE in the cylinders for a week each day before I try to pop the clutch. I would hate to break a ring doing it. Great video.
thanks for sharing
I've said it before and I'll say it again, you guys sure know how to have fun. I wanted your 6 tail light 63 to break free sooo bad. Looks like lt was a badass in its day. Please keep the 6 tail lights. I bought mine in 1976 for $3880.00. Good times. You guys continue to have fun and we will laugh and cry right along with you. Great video. Hope you didnt kill an M22.
I’m not sure what trans is in it, whatever it is it can be rebuilt! Glad your enjoying the videos! We’re having fun making them!
Sitting here loving the scenery, and the cars......then you brake 2nd....and now I'm laughing with you.
Lol we’re still laughing about it! I’m constantly breaking stuff, but this is the first time I’ve broke something in a car that doesn’t even run!
Wow, too much fun! I love that 66!
I don’t know,maybe do it systematically and drop all the gas tanks, empty the rear differential,send the radiators out, rebuild the carbs , change all fluids, new plugs…. you know do lt right.❗️🇺🇸
Awesome!
Nice Job, Ty..
That 63 has a killer clutch in it 😆
Derek would've had'em all going. 😂
If I had his subscribers I could do this for a living and get them all going too! Lol
Aren' t you tired of " sparkalators" and giant sausage fingers blocking the screen???
I have many NOS oem gears for muncies. I sell what you need
pretty cool video! if you ever have room you should bring one to races for people to see in the pits!
That would be a good idea!
That also looks like the British Green that you would see on a lot of 68 vettes....the most common color that year
Looking good👌
That valve cover is supposed to be on the driver's side flipped the other way i believe...They were dented like that so they didn't hit the master cylinder but I think those were more toward the corner ?? that's my best guess
I like to fill the fuel bowls through the vent tubes when I’m starting a new motor or an old motor that hasn’t had fuel in it for a long time.
Great video, you guys really know your stuff so why dont you just fill the float bowls when trying to start the cars instead of drowning the carbs?
some vice grip garage you will watch.
They could use a lesson or two from Derek for sure
Put Seafoam in the fuel and oil to break things up
Dented valve used from 12_65 to Jan 66, whether or not the car had ac, very rare
Good to know! Thanks!
I cant believe trying to unstick a motor by pulling a corvette that valuable and tear out second gear.Alot better way to unstick a motor than that way fiill cylinders with marvel oil ley sit and manualy crank over.Then pull engine then rebuild than damage it more still love your channel guys.
Good to see you fixed the upload.
It was actually your comment that made me realize it! Thank you!
@@HorsepowerDepot 👍
Should be half-ass garage.
I would absolutely love to own that 66! Absolutely a fantastic car! I think it should be a giveaway car! 🤣Thanks for sharing.
Lol my following is great, but it’s not big enough to give away a corvette! Maybe one day though!
@@HorsepowerDepot I bet you would be amazed at how many people you would pick up from that. I'm sure it would more than cover the cost. 🤣😂
Cool vid thanks for your time.
@@rpturbo Try getting a job and paying for one?

The pictures do have a date, the registration on the car. Can you make it out?
you already have drivers, why not start full restorations on each of the cars?
We don’t have the time for full restorations right now.
@@HorsepowerDepot Yup, gonna get around to it, just like all the other hoarders driving up the prices fro the guys who only want and need one.
I guess the 65 SBC high horse would be the car I’d be most interested in seeing done. Second would be the 66 coupe painted silver again. Green does nothing for me. Of the BBC’s the 390 horse is a better driver. Although I have both mid years coupe and hardtop/convertible Corvettes the coupe is my favorite body style. The 63 looks like a mix of year and custom parts. 63 as a street rod candidate and as for engine and tranny rebuild if lucky.
👍
✌
how soon will you sell these cars ?
They won’t be for sale.
I was watching you guys do this clutch popping towing stupidity and right when you broke 2nd gear I was thinking “those stupid guys are gonna break some gears teeth off” And there ya go and do it. Wtf man???
You’d be surprised to know how many locked up engines we’ve gotten loose by doing that. All of them still running good to this day!
@@HorsepowerDepot yea? And how much damage did you cause to those transmissions, clutches, drivelines, differentials, axles? It appears you're about the quick and easy down and dirty instead of let’s pull the heads and look at the cyls first. This is cave man style wrenching, not my thing
The trans probably needed to be rebuilt anyways
@@S2NAZ Calm down Grandpa, it's just a gear that can easily be replaced.
@@S2NAZ I'm with you brother, I've watched Derek Berri do it correctly on Vice Grip garage too many times, so I was cringing at this BS. Venom Boy down below can give you all the Grandpa shit he wants, he's just another hacker too.
nothing against these guys but i swear i will never understand these outrageous prices for any old car pre 84 as a old school car guy born in 65 who has owned every thing from k5 4x4 to muscle cars growing up a car guy could buy one ( good running ) for around 2000k to 4500k now the same cars nearly 40 years later cost 40k to 300k even a piece of crap 1984 4 door ford ltd no one wanted back in the day will cost 8500 a rusted out chassis will cost 8k why ? and a bank with good interest rates will not even think about a loan for one so the average gear head is out of luck why ? so mister money bags think they look cool SITTING IN THEIR COLLECTION and then there is people with classics just sitting outside or in a old building not touched in 30 years it makes me sick
Man quit using starting fluid,I see alot of people doing that on an engine that hasn't been started in a long time.
are the fast series allow you to play some trick like flip filter cover
Should be half-ass garage.
I like 1/4 ass garage better.
