Rev I love the relationship you have with your old man. My Dad passed away 2 year ago in July and I miss him everyday. I regret not finding/making the time to do things like this with him when he was here. So I’m living it through you and your old man. Keep the videos coming I really enjoy them and I know my dad would be a subscriber and watching the videos also if he was still here.
Joe, we have a good time with it. I have wanted to get these girls going for a long time. Now he has time and I am forcing the issue.. Im glad to still have the old man around. Thanks for watching brother!
wish my old man was still here..cherish every moment. its rough not having him around. love the vids guys. keep it up
Adrian, I try to remember that I still have the chance and I do not want to take it for granted.. Thanks for watching!
Same here..my Pop passed away 51 yrs ago when I was just 12 :-/
While my dad is still here he never was a "car guy" but if he was we wouldn't be able to do it. He's a double amputee and a stroke survivor. Needless to say hes not in the garage turning wrenches. My granddad was the one who got me into cars and working on them. I do miss him greatly and of my time in the military the only regret I have was the time I missed with him working on the cars. By the time I got out he had sold all the old cars we had and wasn't able to continue due to declining health. Rev, enjoy the "Old Man" as long as you can and forge those memories because while he will not be here forever, they will.
Love to ya brother.
I'm really sorry to hear of your loss. I am 38 now and I'm the youngest of three, but my dad is 72 and still kicking. I know that I'm going to be absolutely inconsolable when he goes, but he's healthy and I feel that he'll be around for a while longer (with the graces of God). I hope you're doing well bud.
I been calling my dad "ol man" for long time. That term means wisdom, leadership and mentor
Exactly... you have to earn that title.
Great seeing you and your dad doing this together. Those 200 inline 6 motors are hard to kill. I have one in my 67 Stang. I love it.
She came back to life pretty well after I got her to spin over! Thanks for watching!
Nothing better sounding then a old Ford running after you worked on it. Us old truck prefer our beach seats to let our girls set next to us. You and your dad make good team.
Richard, my dad has a lot of old car stories.. he really like driving the 65 galaxie because it had a bench seat. Thanks for watching!
I think it's very cool that you have such a good relationship with your Dad, not everyone is blessed with that 😪
Nick, I am lucky. My old man doesn't mind having me around and I don't mind having him around. Thanks for watching!
I can't believe how lucky you are to have all those awesome vehicles to tinker with! And to have your old man do it with you is a huge blessing!
Truly is a blessing. Ive watched most rusting away for years and now we are able to bring em back to life together!
Old man David I love the old Mustangs. My first car was a 1970 Maverick 200 6 cylinder wish i had it now. Can't beat them old Fords
Ive owned a Maverick... I had the 74 302.. She had the big bumpers but still a fun car.
@@RevStoration Had a Caspian Blue 65 hardtop with C code 289 2v V8 in high school. Ran great.😎 Good work on this one!😎
I drove a 65 Fairlane just like that in High School back in the early 90’s
Ride em proud.. thanks for watching!
Luv your vidos n content, would ya wanna may b sell tha fairlane 500? thanks n god bless. Greg
Wow! May of 92 is when I met my wife and been together since! Heavens to mergatriod I need to adopt that car!
Cool, I was 12 when he pulled it into the spot is that we worked on it... Now we have to cut down trees to get it out...
I am really liking the content Rev. I love old Fords and seeing you and your old man get them running again reminds me of the times I worked on cars and trucks with my old man. God Bless!
Chris, we enjoy turning the wrenches, laughing and fussing at the same time. Thanks for watching Man!
You're lucky to have your dad on your team
No doubt... I have had him on my team from before day 1.
And yet another beautiful old car 👌👌👌
We have alot more work to do on this rig..
Your video was great. Father & son videos are my favorite.
Thanks John!
I'm just glad that you and your dad I'm making memories
We are having fun at the same time.. thanks for watching!
Back in the 80's a friend had one with the same motor that he had pieced together from three cars. Lots of fun!
Through these together, get the card right, and they will run like a sewing machine.. thanks for watching!
Man, had a Ford Fairmont that had a 200 6cyl !
My comments from the preview page: My buddy had a red on red 66 with this engine and a 4 speed and what I think were 3:50 gears. This was back in 1971. It was surprisingly quick from 0 to 35 and got a couple of car lengths on you while your tires were spinning off the line. Pretty annoying. Nothing after 40, but was great stop light to stop light on the old cruising strip
Dewey, that bottom end off the line speed.. this motor surprised me how well it sounded.. not a sewing machine yet but a lot of life left. Thanks for watching!
YES the mustang is on here now im so happy
Evan, she was a little show, but we got her going! Thanks for watching!
Love your vids! Reminds me of my pops and I when I was a kid; Tinkering around with cars, cuttin up, bustin our knuckles and having a blast! Super awesome you and your dad are still doing this together!
That is awesome, we enjoy working together and laughing at out amazing failures..
3 for 3 in getting the old girls started. Impressive to watch. Looking forward to more videos.
Tim, surprisingly this one came right along. I was amazed that it wasn't locked up after sitting for so long. Thanks for watching!
I'm an Australian 'old man' here, I just love your way of caressing these old Fords and getting their hearts beating!
Got a '66 Pony car myself, with 302 Cubes. "Praise the Ford "
Sweet ride with some go
just found your channel that was great thanks for not swearing i like to watch these shows with my 8 year old grandson videos get turned off at the first f bomb at my house God bless keep safe ,this is for the old man ( old guys rule ) lol
I agree. We use words that all can use and understand. I appreciate the last part.. old men do rule. Thanks for watching!
I like the old stuff because you can easily work on it.👍
Lean over the fender and get to work.. no plastic to remove!
Very well done. Keep up the good work. God bless brother 👍
Thank you so very much for watching.. honored to have you comment. We had a good time getting her going again! God Bless!
nice that made think back some year. I had a 67 fastback I miss that car today Stay Safe God Bless
Wow! Old Cars always have good memories and great stories. Thanks for watching, Ray!
Us old men know more about cars 👍😁🇨🇦
Hey Rev! Good to see the Old Man back in the spotlight. Excellent video with the mustang. I can’t believe it started after such a long rest. My dad was a Ford man, he loved them. Great to see you and your dad slinging the wrenches and pouring the fire maker on the old cars. Love you both. Big Al.
Thanks Big Al! We experience true joy hearing them run and knowing we did it together.. We love you too brother!
Love it oh the joy God bless stay safe my friend
Thanks again!
Watching you two work on those cars makes me miss my Pop, I do so enjoy seeing you both doing these though. Thank you.
Marvel mystery oil was the mainstay Pop always had around. I do believe that would be what saved his 1937 Cord in running order even after sitting for years.
It is amazing what lubricating a cylinder can do for a restart.or even a stuck engine.. thanks for watching friend!
hey love you guys!!! appreciate the nostalgia,,,,, which is what I grew up with on muscle care nostaslgia with my brother and myslef! which we worked on togeher!!!! believe it or not he is a physician who loves muscle car nostalgia as much as medicine!
Awesome Grant. Thanks for watching and I would appreciate a doctor that loves muscle cars.. tell him I said Hello!
I am subbed and have been for a while...thanks for taking us with you and the old man...2 old men...you old guys...
The storyies are as fun as the revivals! Keep it up Guys!
We are full of stories.. and if we don't have a good one, we can make on up! Thanks for watching and you should be crushing 5k before long!
Definitely keep it a 6 cylinder. They're becoming quite rare, since everybody seems to swap in a V8.
That's the plan! We will do a little work to her and she what she had left.
It's great working on cars with your dad. Some of my best memories as a kid was working in the garage with my dad. I call him old man all the time. He says you got to be smart enough to become an old man. Lot of Truth to that.
We have a good time together.. It is truly that the older generation still have a thing or ten to teach us.
Rev you are so blessed to still have your Dad. I am sure you know that, but it never hurts know what other people think. Enjoyed the video and that old 200 sounds pretty healthy. God Bless you both.
I am blessed and thankful for my "Ole Man." He is my earthly hero.
This just popped up in my feed..It’s been 2 years already!!
Love that you and your dad are doing this!
Shawn, we have a great time turning wrenches and telling stories. Thanks for watching!
Great videos keep those old cars alive!
Trying to give them life again... fun old girls.
Pastor I had that 200 six in a 73 Maverick. My dad's old car. I wanted the 67 fastback XL. But he sold it and got the.Maverick He decided to keep the. Maverick and got me a 73 Gremlin X with the 232 CI straight 6. Into the straight 6 is the finest engine ever produced. Personally I love them. Most 18 wheelers run straight 6. Talk to you soon. Your friend Ken.
Ken, you are so right. I have owned many inline sixes and when tuned right they run like a sewing machine. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this Video! Hope to see later this Car restoration,Upgrade...Best Wishes,Greetings from Germany!
Thanks Georg
That's cool you and your dad can work on cars together fixing of y'all's work love your message and y'all do a great job you having your car for sale
Aight then, you got me hooked. We wanna see this mustang move up out of this spot. Good job fellas. 👏🏻
Brandon, we had the chainsaws ready.. The next episode with this old girl will be unsticking the brakes, digging out the wheels, fuel pump, and seeing if she will climb from her grave!
That's a lot of good information in a fun way. Old guys! -- I'm excited about moving my 19+64 Ford step van now. -- Thanks for some enthusiasm, these days.
Thanks for watching and good luck on getting on it..
As a pony fan, please get that old girl back on the road! I always wanted one but no luck yet.
Joshua, we are going to work on her until she can rolling up and down the road again. It may be a long time coming but we will get here there.
@@RevStorationi enjoy your videos with you and your old man. Lol. Keep up the good work!
Thanks
Preacher and dad jokes. Gotta' love it. My brother is a preacher.
William, I am full of sermons, stories, and jokes... I can share them all at a drop of a hat.
I did the exact same thing as your dad did. When my wife and I were dating, back in the early 70's, I had a 66 Ford Torino with buckets. I too built a wood box with padding to put between the seats for her to sit on.
Whatever it takes to make enough room to have the lady sitting close to ya... Thanks for watching!
Must have been a 66 Fairlane. 68 was the first year for Torino.
@@markreisen7038 My mistake. It was a 68. It's been a long time. It was almost new when I got it. Our family owned a Ford dealership and I got a car someone traded it because they didn't like it. But I loved it.
My first car was a 69 Ford fairlane. Was a Royal Maroon with a black top black interior, gold pin stripes, 302 2bbl c4 trans that I paid $50.00 for and had a lot of fun with. Put a set of Magnum 500 wheels with Mohawk g70x14 white leter tires. Man I wish I still had that car.
@@markreisen7038 Love those old Fords. But my first car was a '58 Opel. What a piece of junk. But it wasn't long that my dad let me take a 62 Fairlane off our used lot. I loved that car.
I lost count of how many cars I had after that. Being as we had three car lots. Yeah, I was a spoiled brat. Now I'm rollin' in a 2019 F150 Crewcab 4x4. Still spoiled to those Fords.
Thanks for the video great as always
Thanks a bunch for watching!
I'm an old ford guy myself. I got my 1940 9 N running this weekend.
Wow! Sweet year.. Id love to own a 40 ford coupe..
I wish I could send you a picture of her
I refer to myself as old man. My 28 year old son and his wife recently had their first child... I now call him old man. So we have fun with it too.
I mean no disrespect but some people must not embrace it... Love allows alot of flexibility of the things we say.. he knows when I say Old Man it is with the upmost respect.. thanks for watching!
Nice job , need to see it move on it's own. Subbed !!. Stay safe and healthy 🇬🇧
Hopefully, in a video or two she will be moving out of her grave!
Great stuff guys love this ole channel. Love to hear the old man hes a legend
HE is a legend without a doubt.
Great job and video you guys I watch Vice Grip Garage, Derick is good people, well you guys have a good one and God Bless! He is one of my favorites!
If you love cars you should love Derek! He is a one of a kind guy! Thanks for watching and commenting!
That's some pretty good theft protection there letting the trees grow up around the car.
Yep couldn't even puck it up with a helicopter! Chainsaw will be put use in next episode!
I was three months old lol I did a CL Charger first start in 27 years dad parked it up because the roads were bad and he wanted to save the car.
Wow, the stories that come along with these old rides. Fun, Fun, Fun. Thanks for watching!
I am a new subscriber and I am glad to have found your channel! You two remind me of me and my father. We collect and restore classic fords as a hobby. That 51 shoebox you see in my profile pic is our latest project we just finished. I love seeing revivals of classic cars.....especially fords....lol.
The great relationship you share with your dad is very obvious and it clearly shows on camera. You guys are great entertainment and teachers as well. I wish you guys continued success and can't wait too see what y'all come up with next.
By the way....I am a mustang enthusiast and I currently have a 65 fastback I am starting a restoration on. It started it's life with a 6 banger but I am converting it to a period correct 289. I didn't want the 6 banger although they are almost bullet proof engines, but I at least wanted it to be close to original.
Rick that is awesome. I hope the mustang turns out awesome for you. We enjoy what we do and sharing it.on here has been amazing. Surprised but happy people watch!
I love this old cars starting up after a year and also you sound like cowboys this one is a good find
Thanks for watching Mac!
wonderful!!!! I am glad that I found your channel!
Darwin, I am honored that anyone watches. We truly appreciate it.
Would love to have it...
We are going keep turning wrenches on this old girl.. Hopefully, it will come along well!
Love them Wheeler boys! Good job y’all
Thank you Chuck.. this one wrestled us a little but she came back to life!
Marvel mystery oil. Compression in a bottle
And how nice is it to do a starter from topside
Yep and yep... it would have been dangerous for ones health to get under this rig... bit no problem.. 3 bolts 2 wires and she was off and up.. thanks for watching!
good job on the old mustang nice to see it back on the road..big shout out from the highlands of scotland 👍
John Lad, thanks for watching and commenting!
HELLO FROM ROCKFORD, IL. THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
Hey Dan, thanks for watching..
My dad had a 64 with a 289, Great car 3 in the tree with overdrive, thruway inspectors car. You have a gem there.
James, I am sure that it was a sweet ride. The manual trans gives it real authority. Thanks for watching!
Sweet sound from an old lady
Love your videos take care my friends God Bless PS l am subscribed every come on in water is fine
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Guerreiros! Parabens pelo belo trabalho
Thanks for watching.
Amazing!
I was shocked too... these old engines only need a few things to run... I thank God a computer is not one of them!
The 200 inch six is almost legendary, as with the 300 inch six. Both have seven main bearings, and tend to run "forever". Also have considerable torque at low RPM. Careful with putting plus back in after introducing marvel oil into the cylinders, as it is a good formula for hydrolock. Better leave the plugs out for the first couple of revs. I bent a rod once with that method! Good thing I used only a little oil on the other seven, and flooded the one which had the lowest compression!
I love the straight six engines.. they do run forever. We turned the engine over numerous times with the plugs in.. then we reinstalled the plugs.. thanks for watching!
Glad i stumbled upon your channel!
Thanks for watching, Wayne!
I work on small engines a buddy brought me a wood chipper that had no compression at all put that marvel mystery oil in it let it sit overnight pulled it over a few times to shoot it out put the plug in and a shot of starter fluid in carb started up like new still runs great six months later love that stuff
The Marvel Mystery Oil has alot of great qualities. It has worked a few miracles for me over the years as well. Thanks for sharing your story and watching mine!
Wow soy un nuevo suspcritor y los veo desde Puerto Rico y me impresiona este canal because you dont need a lot of tools to make it work. And is wondefull that you are toguether doing that. Forgive my english soy boricua. GOD BLESS YOU
Juan, thank you for commenting and watching.. God Bless!
That old girl still has life in her ! Restore her she will be sweet !!
The old man has parts glore for the Mustang... More coming for sure.

Thanks
My dad drove a 77 Pontiac Grand Prix home on the emergency brake when I was a kid
Robert my dad owned one two.. his was burgundy and it seemed to be 30 feet long.. thanks for watching!
Hello 👋🏼 I just subscribed to your channel. Great father and son team. I get emotional 😭 thinking 🤔 about how me and my dad used to do plenty of things and projects together 👍🙏🏼, God bless you both.
Amen, I am honored to still have mine around to work on his rigs and hear his stories. Thanks for subscribing and watching!
Nice, perfect car for me. I wish I were back in Canada to hunt for a car like this. March I return , then i hunt for one.
Hope you find one! Thanks for watching!
I sure would like to have that ford galaxy sitting over there I could really do something with that just never got to where I could afford one like that,thank for the videos I really enjoy watching you guys work on them
We are going to try to honor her by getting her on the road again... Keep watching and hopefully it will happen.

You got me on the mustang lol. I guy jus had to hit the red button
Thank you very much.. Hopefully, we will have at least a few more video getting this old stang going again!
@@RevStoration I would love to see it. Had a 66 fastback for years and years and tore it apart to get painted and the guy flaked on a guy. Sold it 8 years later. Worst mistake a guy made
I wish I could do something like this with my kids. But live in a apartment with no where to work.
Andrew, it is fun to get these going again!
I did my oil change in the parking lot of my apartment.
@@RevStorationby be by to by to by by

Enjoyed
I was surprised but it worked.. Thanks for watching our craziness!

Thank you so very much. We have had a fun time getting this old girl running again!
That fan clutch is shot!
A lot of things are shot for sure..
Wow only driven to that spot and the trees grew up around it? Well I'm 70 yrs old and Had Fords I loved my 1970 Ford Torino with its 351 V8 but you guys have that inline six and if it runs strong enough is enough to get that small car going. I live by Marvel Mystery oil been using it in my vehicles for 54 yrs. I just subscribed to your channel as well . Keep up the good work.
The MMO is really good stuff. It has blessed me more than once.
Happy 59th birthday, Mustang! 4/17/2023.
Very worth restoring.
Hope so!
Lol, your dad reminds me of my favorite country singer, John conlee
I can see what you are saying but I can't hear it.. I think the music bone missed his generation! Thanks for watching!
@@RevStoration I'm meaning he looks a little like John conlee
I understand.. I was just saying he can't sing like him, no rose colored glasses here. We love John Conlee music too!
Been there, done that. It wasn't as fun as you might think.
I'm sure.. thanks for watching!
