    I'm going on 80 years old and have worked on so many different vehicles, from bugs to 45' charter coaches, but now physically unable to do almost all of this that I loved doing. I absolutely enjoy your podcasts. I really enjoy watching watching the miracles you perform. I will follow you in all of your upcoming adventures .

    I'm hearing more and more people say they are quitting their jobs to do UA-cam full time. It is a mazing the transformation of the entertainment industry within the last 5 years. Personally, I have quit watching traditional television. (with the exception of the local news) Now I spend the majority of my spare time watching exactly the things I want to on UA-cam. Not what someone else wants me to watch, but what I choose. It has become more and more apparent that the things we have been force fed for many years has been tainted with bias. So ya'll keep it up and I will keep watching. I appreciate your time and effort.

    I'm in the middle of a multiweek get-it-on-the-road revival of a 1949 Ford F-6. Got the ole flathead running with fresh ignition system, fresh fuel system, headlights and taillights, somewhat finished 12v conversion and am now doing the brake system. I wish my wheel cylinders were 10 bucks, the fronts were 35 and the rears 44 each. Someone put the rear shoes on reversed and it had brand new front shoes. I'm kinda glad the rear cylinders both blew out as it forced me to find a multitude of issues with the brakes all around. It is shows like this that keep me motivated to push on. Keep up the good work :)

    • @MaxGiganteum
      @MaxGiganteum 11 місяців тому

      Even more pro tip: use clear vinyl tubing instead... it's easier to see what's going on when you can see what's going on. The last time I checked, you can buy it by the foot from home improvement stores such as Lowes or HD. Best wishes!

    Michael, love those old cars. I thought that metal knocking was the TQ converter bolts as I have seen that a few times in my old career. Noises can be misleading but it actually drove you to other potential problems to address. You saved another fine vehicle. Congrads to DAD! I am 72 now and still like to tinker when I can. What is going on with the Falcon? Any future love for it?

  • @Hugmiff1

    I just found this series while I was looking for something else and I'm so glad that I did! My Grandparents had a 62 Fairlane 500 2 door, white with red/white sport interior. I had a basic 62 Fairlane 4 door - they had a better budget than I had in high school. Anyhow, that little 221 cu in V8 was the butt of a lot of jokes - it was so tiny back then. Today that displacement in liters is every maker's mainstay. 3.6 liter. This has been a walk down memory lane and I thank you!!

    The first car I drove was my dad's 63 fairlane 260 3 on the tree. In the first summer I burnt the rear tires bald. That little car would fly. I wish I could find another one. My first car was a 66 Galaxie 352 auto and it was faster yet, but not as cool as the 63 fairlane. Awesome job. It's good to see these old cars back on the road.

    How cool to get dad working with you. My dad and i had no relationship so im very happy for you. It was very good going into the motor and finding that bearing issue which also saved an even bigger bigger issue the timing chain. I'm wondering if the flywheel was loose but im sure you checked and you had to use it to turn to each converter bolt. You need to get a couple G-men suits to drive around the neighborhood in that beauty. 😂✌️.

    Well done. This really brought back memories of my first car, a 1962 Ford Fairlane (white with red leather bucket seats and a 3 speed manual) It had all of the same problems that your car had (and I bought it in 1967) Beautiful car but nothing but trouble. It was mercifully totaled when someone rear ended me in 1968. Great memories, though, as it was the car I drove when I first dated my wife of 51 years.
