I actually still have one of those. Many older people will remember seeing them being used by the prisoners in the old chain gangs cleaning the sides of roads (thankfully, I never got put into one of those. My family would have killed me!)
Hi Richard.... You and your dear wife are awesome 😊 Richard your a fantastic mechanic I'm so impressed of the thing's you do. And all so your wife. Love you guy's. I use to do detailing long time a go. I still do my own car. It does give you a great feeling to clean a old car like this! Love your vidio's be safe Thank You both🎉❤
The silver pipe looks like a motorcycle exhaust/muffler. And the tool is a sling blade/weed whacker. You swing it from side to side and cut tall weeds with it. Wow! That car was really filthy. Good job getting her cleaned up guys! 👍😎
Richard and Christina’s videos are always so interesting. You never know how they’ll face the next challenge. Thank you both. Can’t wait to see the next one.
You are both an amazing what a find and the treasures in that car wow it was Like a pandora box lots of hard work cleaning that car I always injoy your videos very exciting lots of great item found in that car 👍
Jonathan and I are really enjoying you two discover treasures in the Chevy Shed! My favorite is when you found weapons! ⛏️ Jonathan likes when the film is sped up. Could you add The Benny Hill theme for that? 🤣🤣 I was worried that something would pop out and smack you in the face !😳 You two are so brave!
Enjoy watching your videos, you two are the best! Christina, I know we’re all anxious to see the interior renovation you got planned. All the best to you both!
Watching you both having fun together and clean up your ride is awesome and scary all at the same time. Never know what you can find good or bad. Great video both of you 👍.
Its 5am . I'm up going to a savage yard to pull a front differential out of a jeep for a friend. He's going with so he can get muddy and greasy also lol . Great videos . Keep up the good work. Nothing like getting a old car running that's been left for dead. It's a skill. That is for sure.
Good morning! Those rusty tools and hubcaps can be submerged in white vinegar for a few hours or maybe even a few days. It’s amazing to see all the rust that comes off and floats to the top.
That came out of A 1972 Chevy nove the back runner board panel. That covers the speakers up with. That garden tool is called A sling sickle for corn fields.& Bean feilds.&etc. Like cutting down sawblade grass with to.
That’s a bit & brace hand drill,you can still get the bits for it;It is used for precision wood works.The Chevy cleaned up,looking forward to the “WILL IT RUN”Thank You Richard, and Christina for another great video! Take Care, Your Oregon Friend ☮️
That tool that you had your hand to use that through the woods making paths or anything like that because weeds stuff like that down it works real good really really does he swing it sideways
I love them old Chevys I got a 1950 four-door that I fixed up years ago still got it still driving it. I put a 283 V8 in it and a 4-speed put a different rear end under it that car is a lot of fun.
Watching this cleanup video brings back memories when I was a kid. Dad would drive his old cars till they would not go anymore and park them out back. They would become a storage area for miscellaneous trash and also his tools that he could not remember were he stored them. We went thru the same process cleaning them out to sell when passed away. Christina quite a trooper getting right in there not afraid getting dirty. I am so happy I found you guys and look forward to your weekly shows being retired to pass time. Thank you and excited to see what you will do on 400.00 budgeted interior!
hi you'al that small hammer is called a ballpinn hammer, primarily for mechanic and metal working and the d looking thing with the handle is a weed wacker. enyoy your show and watching you guy's in action.I,m Michael from Smithville Tennessee!
Wow the car was full of stuff I bet the suspension raised a few inches. The dash came up so well, I can imagine getting in the car brand new and seeing the chrome reflections.
Right, it must have looked amazing when new. It wasn't too many years later that such a large amount of chrome disappeared from dashboards, It is a shame. Chromed plastic just isn't the same.
When you finally powerwash that back window. There is something beautiful anout that. Great video. Great content. I think Richard was praying for a rare coin or jewellery under the seats 😊
Looks like the car was treated as a 4 wheel storage shed! Lots of good stuff in there. I like to take a tape measure and go from the road to bottom of bumper. After I removed all of the junk,I take another measurement! Hope that you can get the car running.
The Saginaw 4 speed great find. I've had them. But for the quarter mile Saginaw 3 speed behind a small block work best for me. Definitely a market for that 4 speed. Glad the two of you are enjoying the videos
Those other tools are called shers.&loppers for 🎄 tree trimming.& Hedge trimming with to. Those all three are name brand hand yard & gardening tools.& Tree trimming.& Bush& hedge trimming tools.
I see an old Arvin heater(?) just under the dash. Arvin was one of two fortune 500 companies founded and based in the small town of Columbus Indiana. The other is Cummins Diesel Engine Company. Arvin was bought by Meritor and left Columbus for the most part. They made the first catalytic converter and a little of everything else. I love your videos.
Could not believe she did not put up her hair digging in all that crud! Funny they spent time polishing the chrome and you can fall through the floors! Surprised the body does not separate from the frame with little flooring to hold it.
Great filming you two ! Can't wait for the interior episode, often the case , always looks worse than it is , I would just repair it and run it , thanks for sharing, great fun !
I had no doubt you were a warrior Christina. Your just lovely and Richard ( I’m sure he knows ) is a lucky fella to have a gal that isn’t afraid to dig into his ( and her ) passion. 👍🇨🇦
If you drop the door handle out of the door, there is a four digit code on the plunger with which you can easily have another key cut....if the car is still original, the key will also be correct for the ignition, glove box and trunk. The "odd" hammer is called a ball-peen.
Thanks for the info on the door lock. I will do that. the hammer is not a usual ball peen. IT has a very odd design that must have been purpose built for something.
Wow...that car was full of junk...great job in cleaning it up. Good thing you had a positive attitude as it could be depressing in sorting out that stuff. 🙂
It's A outboard motor block off plate for A Evinrude outboard boat motor. For the top points plate cover.& Coil area. That looks to be A junkyard Chevy.,or Dodge pickup truck manual transmission for A 318 engine.
It's a sling blade,it was used to cut grass and bushes like on side of the road or yard
Some calls it a kaiser blade
I actually still have one of those. Many older people will remember seeing them being used by the prisoners in the old chain gangs cleaning the sides of roads (thankfully, I never got put into one of those. My family would have killed me!)
Grass whip
yep grass whip / weed cutter , weed cutter, I have one
Now I feel silly for not knowing what that is! I am used to using a sickle for that type of work.
It's a blessing to have a wife that is helpful as yours never take for granted what God has bless you with
So true Wayne. I am thankful each day.
Love to see Christina digging in. Het enthousiasme is great. Nice video of the contence of the car. Lovin it
Great video, nice seeing both of you in front of the camera working on this project together.❤
Thanks John! We both enjoy doing it.

That’s a serrated weed cutter, and grass cutter very handy! Great Video,Your Oregon Friend☮️
That yard tool you just found is a antique for cleaning the grass out of the dirt something like a rake
Hahaha haha, the cleanout was like storage bid wars tv show
The silver pipe looks like a motorcycle exhaust/muffler. And the tool is a sling blade/weed whacker. You swing it from side to side and cut tall weeds with it. Wow! That car was really filthy. Good job getting her cleaned up guys! 👍😎

What did I win, your 59 Ford, lol. I had one when I was in my twenties. Awesome truck.

Me too. It is always an interesting treasure hunt.
I love the clean up part😊when I get a used car I look forward to cleaning
Lots of treasures to be found in these old cars.

Yes, more positive than me!
Enjoy watching your videos, you two are the best! Christina, I know we’re all anxious to see the interior renovation you got planned. All the best to you both!
Thanks Rich. I am interested to see the interior myself.
I really like your videos, especially the 70 Chevelle.. thanks for the great entertainment! Chris

Thanks for the support!
@@whattherust our pleasure brother we both watch you both and have a good time lol
I had a typewriter like that in College. Used it to type up Court Papers as well. Wow, memories.
Its 5am . I'm up going to a savage yard to pull a front differential out of a jeep for a friend. He's going with so he can get muddy and greasy also lol . Great videos . Keep up the good work. Nothing like getting a old car running that's been left for dead. It's a skill. That is for sure.
Hey Patrick. Not man things I would get up at 5 AM for, but going to a salvage yard is one of them!
Good morning! Those rusty tools and hubcaps can be submerged in white vinegar for a few hours or maybe even a few days. It’s amazing to see all the rust that comes off and floats to the top.
Hey David! I'll try the vinegar.
Great looking car!
Back when I was a kid we used that to cut high brush, I don't know how to spell it but we called it a Livaled.
Wow absolutely amazing looking forward to the 400 Makeover for sure!
Thanks! I am as well!
YAY! I always get excited for a new film from you guys 😊.
I really appreciate that comment. More to come!
One more cool old car. I was born in 1954. That’s my dream car. Thanks from. Sc
Thanks Allen. We still have this car and were working on it today. It will be in another video soon.
That is a weed whacker. It is used when you have a lot of weeds in your backyard or front yard or even ditches. I have a collection of them
That came out of A 1972 Chevy nove the back runner board panel. That covers the speakers up with. That garden tool is called A sling sickle for corn fields.& Bean feilds.&etc. Like cutting down sawblade grass with to.
It sounds like what a sickle would be used for. Thanks for the info!
That's an old grass chopper, from when we used to mow the lawn with more primitive machines.
It is a sling blade used before string trimmer or weed eater came out. Caused lots of blisters on your hands..
That’s a bit & brace hand drill,you can still get the bits for it;It is used for precision wood works.The Chevy cleaned up,looking forward to the “WILL IT RUN”Thank You Richard, and Christina for another great video! Take Care, Your Oregon Friend ☮️

That car sounds fantastic. I like four doors with 4 speeds a lot. They are unique. Send me a picture if you can.
I love your place! I like lots of trees. It’s much nicer to work on stuff in the shade.😊
Thank you. It sure is.
Rust is not bad at all that can be fixed easy. Love to have that car.
awesome video guys you got some good bits she is a beauty cannot wait to hear it roar into life
Thanks Paul as always!

Thanks for the support Lynn. Glad we were able to bring back some good memories.
The chrome is so oxidized, but the elbow grease really made it shine and the actual cleaning compound really brought it up!
Weed whacker/lively Ladd weed cutter.

Thanks Michael. You are not so far away, so perhaps we will meet at a show!
Great job I love classic cars I actually have a bel air 57 now good luck guys very nice 52 Chevy and nice patina
Thanks for the comment Eladio. I need to figure out how to preserve that patina.
@@whattherust I saw here in Miami that they use fine sand paper and then they apply some layers of clear coat, to preserve the patina. Take care guys.

The crome tube is a motorcycle muffler,and that hammer is a ball peen hammer
When you finally powerwash that back window. There is something beautiful anout that. Great video. Great content. I think Richard was praying for a rare coin or jewellery under the seats 😊
Thanks Gavin. Yes, I was hoping for some treasure to be found, but no luck! The 4 speed transmission is not bad though.
Lovely lid
Looks like the car was treated as a 4 wheel storage shed! Lots of good stuff in there. I like to take a tape measure and go from the road to bottom of bumper. After I removed all of the junk,I take another measurement! Hope that you can get the car running.
Thanks Randy. I think the rear raised at least 2 inches.
Excellent video Christine :) & Richard :) also that old car Christine bought going look nice and would get pretty up too all can too!
The Saginaw 4 speed great find. I've had them. But for the quarter mile Saginaw 3 speed behind a small block work best for me. Definitely a market for that 4 speed. Glad the two of you are enjoying the videos

Wow incredible hope to see that car going down the road soon good job cleaning you needed a dumpster
Thanks Robert!
Hello Richard,
Very cool video on the old Chevy. Great stuff.
Be well
Thank you Kevin!
That transmission is a Saginaw 4 Speed Transmission.. I am very familiar because I was born and still live in Saginaw, MI. + I Googled the numbers.
Another great video enjoyed it and of course I'd love to 51 and 52 Chevys
Thanks very much.
Christine - No matter how rusty the tool, it's still a good find! :)
That was a big clean up it something what you will find when clean out a old car I tell you I found some stuff as well.
It is fun what can be found in these old cars.
Everything but a ouja board! Love your show!
Right Greg. It would be creepy to find a ouja board, but also cool! Thansk for the support!
silver pipe is a Harley exhaust--one side off of some Evolution powered big twin bagger.
Liked your videos so much I subscribed. Haven’t been disappointed yet. Kind of like cleaning out old cars myself. You two are the best.
Thanks Steve! Appreciate the kind comment 🙏
The front seat is from a 1977 or 1978 Cadillac DeVille... with the d'Elegance interior.
Wow, that is impressive knowledge of those Cadillacs! Thanks for the info!
Hey Richard and Christina great job cleaning up the old girl! I see you have a inspector cat like I have, my keeps me straight all the time.😄
I have one of those Tortoiseshell inspector cats as well. She is quite the character.
Yes, she is great. Always curious and investigating1
Its a garden tool called a sickle used for chopping down weeds
good video I always check old cars that are used as storage. I find vintage stuff from them. good for resale
It is always fun searching through these 4 wheeled sheds. I have found some really good stuff inside them, especially tools.
Thanks for the tip on the turbo wipes. Just ordered some. You guys should get a sponsorship from them.❤
Right, we should! You will like them for sure.
That bug light probably just needs new bulbs. They sell them at Lowe's or Home Depot.

Arvin was bought by Meritor and left Columbus for the most part. They made the first catalytic converter and a little of everything else. I love your videos.
That is great info! Yes, it is an Arvin. I have not tried it yet, but it might work. It isn't leaking. Thank you for the support!
Could not believe she did not put up her hair digging in all that crud!
Funny they spent time polishing the chrome and you can fall through the floors! Surprised the body does not separate from the frame with little flooring to hold it.
Really enjoyed the video! Crazy what gets stuffed into old cars!
Glad you liked it!
Awesome video it was a amazing first clean up I can’t wait to see what you do to the interior
Thanks! It was fun discovering everything in there.
Great filming you two ! Can't wait for the interior episode, often the case , always looks worse than it is , I would just repair it and run it , thanks for sharing, great fun !
That is it exactly Steve. We will make it roadworthy, use it a bit, and sell it to someone who will do more with it. Thanks for the support.
Looking forward to seeing what she can do on that interior. 😀
Thanks Jeff! I think you'll be surprised!
I had no doubt you were a warrior Christina. Your just lovely and Richard ( I’m sure he knows ) is a lucky fella to have a gal that isn’t afraid to dig into his ( and her ) passion. 👍🇨🇦
Thanks Dan! I am a lucky man.
Great cleanup and a fun watch - thanks for sharing
You're welcome Lance. Glad you liked it.
Some folks call it a Kaiser blade, some call it a Sling blade. I call it a sling blade, MmHmm.
The "drain holes" found in footwells & trunk pans are actually to locate them on jigs/dies when the shells are being built.
I did not know that. That is interesting! Thanks for sharing the info.
The unknown yard tool is a grass sickle.
you need that sling blade to cut grass around some of the cars you show
Great video guys your one of my favourites along with puddin fab shop and coldwar motors cheers from the UK 🇬🇧
Thanks for the support John!
did that 50 amp car battery charger work? It looks pretty nice
Another great video! You should get a kickback from Tub O' Towels...I just went and bought some! Thanks!
Thank you for watching! I hope you like them as much as I do!
Electric sander with 80 grit too clean up the body then grey primer will make it look good.
Good work :) dirty work. Nice effort 👍
If you drop the door handle out of the door, there is a four digit code on the plunger with which you can easily have another key cut....if the car is still original, the key will also be correct for the ignition, glove box and trunk. The "odd" hammer is called a ball-peen.
Thanks for the info on the door lock. I will do that. the hammer is not a usual ball peen. IT has a very odd design that must have been purpose built for something.
The first tool you pulled out, after the type writer, was a sling-blade
watching here Philippines
Great job on the cleanup. Some of that stuff looked nasty. Really makes me miss my 52
Thanks Paul. It was nasty, but it was way better than the Chevelle in Illinois. Now that one was horrible inside.
I like it back when in the way it’s divided up
treasure hunting , always exciting 🙂👍
Hi you 2 really enjoying these set of videos so glad it ran and can't wait to see the £400 interior. Cheers 🥂
I want to see that too! I am sure it will be awesome.
These Chevys from all the years
I like these early 50s Chevys much better than the 55-57s.
Those toe nail clippers will be handy & you want to do some research the type writer could've been William Shakespeare's or Mark Twain's or something.
That lawn mower blade is what Carl used to cut heads off
Great video guys 👍🇺🇸
Thanks Hubert!
Wow...that car was full of junk...great job in cleaning it up. Good thing you had a positive attitude as it could be depressing in sorting out that stuff. 🙂
So true! It is going to take me hours to sort through it all and decide what to keep.
If I’m not mistaken but I think the wires for the 8-track player hook into the radio and played through the radio
I think you are correct.
Awesome video can’t wait to see more on this car.
Thanks! Coming soon!
It's A outboard motor block off plate for A Evinrude outboard boat motor. For the top points plate cover.& Coil area. That looks to be A junkyard Chevy.,or Dodge pickup truck manual transmission for A 318 engine.
Great, thanks for the tip. I would have never guessed what that plate was for.
holy crap lets have a garage sale
