Chad, PLEASE PLEASE dont chop this to pieces!! The world has quite enough chopped up old Ford body hot rods! You will get WAY more respect if you restore this one.
He says he only wants to put Chevy headlights on it and take the louvers out of the hood, and chop the windshield but give him a week or two... He just absolutely doesn't get it that the originality of this 90 year old car that has never been owned by a bloke of Chad limited mentality is why it has the perceived value that it does. He doesn't get that any of his usual antics will only detract from it's current value. Wanna do something positive? Find a new guy that has some mechanical knowledge and get it running and operational without updating or changing every thing you touch. 90 years of preservation out the window! Apologies to the previous care takers of the amazing piece of history.
I vote to restore this bad boy. Looks like it doesn't need much. Get engine running good, new paint job and clean up the inside. Thats all i would do to it.
Yes!!!! It is almost there!! Putting a chevy engine in this is a sacrilege! This is not the base for some custom hot rod. You can maintain an era in history. This car can easily revive a bygone era. Certainly a good investment. Better than a gold bar. What can I say? Do you care??
@Davey-Drums if it was your car you can make that comment, plain and simply he can do whatever he likes with it and it will be every bit as special to him. and good for him.
Chad....PLEASE, PLEASE do not chop this up,! The world has enough old Ford hot rods but this car you've just bought is old and RARE. TAKE CARE OF THIS VEHICLE!
Oddly enough, in this instance, I believe it could be cheaper to restore this one than to customise it. Maybe change the engine and electrics and find a nice set of wheels, but stop at that point
Restore It! She’s a bute! What a gorgeous peace of nostalgia. My friend Wayne who was a carriage maker retired the exact same car and colour, Wayne passed away after a very long battle with Cancer. His wife Sharon asked me to buy the car that Wayne would be smiling knowing beauty was in good care with me. My regret even today is that I did not do it!! I had no where to eke it at the time and my own projects on the go! Wayne did an amazing restoration she was bute. Be a great next care giver to this beautiful relic. NMJ Fort Erie ON.
Chat, Iron Trap Garage in PA has one of these under reconstruction. They also have many spare parts for the Cabralay and they might be someone to establish a relationship with. Iron Trap Garage is an early 1900s machine shop that is on UA-cam. Matt is the gentleman's name. I watch them on Sunday mornings and during the week when they have new content to share. Good luck my friend on making this garage find a success for you and Jolene.
Guy asked him if he had someone to help him get the car running mechanically and Chad hesitated and didn’t know how to answer. Makes me wonder if Nate is no longer working with him?
Greetings from America! (Columbus, Ohio)...Beautiful car!.....90 year old car looks great as is. This 70 year old man, is thrilled to see that old gal. Original paint is appealing. I 2nd the vote to keep her original. Best regards.
I would love to see Chad restore this one but I am not the one spending money or doing the work. Absolutely beautiful car, such history and you working your ass off gives you the opportunity to get it.
@@garylivingston9052you make a very good point, it's also the loss of people who know how to service them and maintain an original. most people today don't lift the hood unless it won't start.
As far as early Fords go, the 34, especially is one of the car classic works of art...there's not a lot left like this one.I'd strongly suggest ,Chad, don't mess with this one except to a decent level of restoration Think of driving around your area, top down on many beautiful future summers.Something tells me good ol Ron is hoping you respect this car!
That's a very cool car, Chad. Congrats on the purchase. For what it's worth, though, I also vote "no" on the SBC conversion. I personally believe it would be a nice change for you to revive the car to as original as possible. If it has a '36 flathead in it, no big deal...maybe even dual carbs or whatever to get it up to 100hp to make the car more practical...but a SBC?? You become like a million other car people when you do that. No offense intended, just my opinion. Whatever you decide to do...congrats again on the cool old Ford.
Hey Chad & Jolene- What an awesome find. I'm a kustomizer for sure, but I hope the only cutting that happens on this Cabriolet is patch panel rust repair. Motorboat the stance, slap on skirts and Appletons and drive it. Please reconsider the sbc. It's got a fresh flatmotor in it, Getcha some flattie speed equipment for it and it's a perfectly period-correct early hotrod. Super-legit.
those wheel dollies are slick. I would've jacked one wheel up @ at a time; slid the Dollie underneath the tire, then dropped the jack. About a 30 minute effort, @73 yrs old. I nominate a Street Rod version. Something that would be proud entrant to display @ BTT50s or National Street Rod Association. Dropped front axel
I hope this car wibe restored to its original beauty. Some cars need to be preserved as an original for forthcoming generations to admire its appeal. These are rare cars, don't chop it, you will ruin it. Not everything needs to be chopped. I hope you see sense in the many comments posted. Don't give that line it's my car, my way etc. You are a better man than that.
Why is everyone screaming restore it?? Do you not watch this channel and know what Chad is famous for? He does not spend the money it takes to restore vehicles nor is he interested. He buys to customize them like he likes for as cheap and fast as he can.
He’s famous for ruining them lol. That old man was warned to basically stay away from Chad when he spoke of selling the car, other builders know that car is doomed now.
if you put a bit of oil on your ratchet straps Chad they will work much better. and i see your licences plate is bending from being to low, the best place for the plate is on your trailor fender with a light over it.
That flathead engine has a lot of racing parts available: high compression finned aluminum heads, 3 duece stromberg intake manifold, hotter spark coils, thicker radiator for cooling, get it rebalanced for higher rpm.
48:26 Keep it stock nice car, just clean it up, try polishing, if it shines up, get spots where paint needs fixing and match up. Your a great metel worker but this one needs to stay stock, just a opinion, every one has one. Looks like a keeper.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THIS MAGNIFICENT PURCHASE CHAD WHAT A BEAUT I'M STILL LOOKING FOR A 32 MYSELF BUT GOOD FOR YOU BROTHER YEAH KEEP IT ORIGINAL PLEASE 😢
I was at a foster home when I was about three the son of the foster home had a 30s ford couple hot rod and was told not to give us a ride in well my brother and I talked him into giving us a ride we were just getting out and my older brother was coming home and rated us out the son taught us how to catch foot ball after that I was 3 my brother 4 it stung a bit but was worth all the pain I still remember the rumble of that flat head he had done some work to it a distinct sound.
Its his car. If it were mine, I'd get the flathead running, update the brakes, exhaust and go over the wiring. It took 90 years to look like that. I would do as little as possible. Fix rust holes, color match and blend the Large missing paint areas. Polish the car and drive it.
I'd remove the plugs and squirt some Seafoam in each cylinder and leave it set overnight! Then slowly work it loose! We did that to a 350 Chevy motor and freed it up totally!
I agree with everyone else do not chop it up keep it all original the value will be so much more. Not to mention you will be preserving a piece of history.
Derek called Paul Sheiin to get his flathead going. Derek is NOT a flathead guy. Steve from Iron Trap Garage could get that flathead running in no time. Of course none of them would waste time helping Chad. They have lots to do already.
The v8 will probably start and run I would be willing to bet. I think fender well wheel covers will look very classy. Come on people Chad will do it justuce I have complete faith in him. There are quite a lot of these restored to original. I think Chad will do a great job. Lots of people do put chevy 350s in them but I think the original ford v8 is pretty hot roding cool. Iron Trap garage puts blowers and make Ardins out them too. A guy could spot that paint in. Tires still look perfect. Yep that guys truck is very cute.
Please leave the flathead V8. It’s a wonderful motor. Plus the condition of that body is amazing and look a that radiator grill. It beautiful. Chad, please restore it.
Chad, PLEASE PLEASE dont chop this to pieces!! The world has quite enough chopped up old Ford body hot rods! You will get WAY more respect if you restore this one.

Find a new guy that has some mechanical knowledge and get it running and operational without updating or changing every thing you touch.
90 years of preservation out the window!

Chad will tell you he doesn’t restore vehicles. He buys them to customize like he likes.
@@ericbarlow5508 please Chad not this one
I agree.
@@ericbarlow5508 What about the Porsche 911? and the Corvette? he has some cars to keep its beauty
@@Alex-ku2ff Both of those cars belong to Jolene and she bought them for her personal collection. Chad has nothing to do with or say in those cars.
For the love of car gods, restore it.
Yes!!!! It is almost there!! Putting a chevy engine in this is a sacrilege!
This is not the base for some custom hot rod. You can maintain an era in history. This car can easily revive a bygone era. Certainly a good investment. Better than a gold bar.

@@philpinkney9238 Chad was asking what he should do with the car, so everybody can write his opinion without getting a lesson
I havent seen anything finished since chadillac. Ii saw it in his shop? Ithought it was for a dealership?
Restore to Original, that's where you will widen the purchase audience
Totally agree.
Chad....PLEASE, PLEASE do not chop this up,! The world has enough old Ford hot rods but this car you've just bought is old and RARE. TAKE CARE OF THIS VEHICLE!
Yes,yes!! Artwork!!
How do you chop a fabric top?!?!😜🤷🏿♂️
I hope and Pray that Chad will not Chop this Awesome Ford 1934. This is sweet looking
If you can't respect the original beauty of this Ford, you are not a "car guy".
Please respect the craftsmen that created this beauty. You're lucky to have gotten it
Congrats!
RESTORE IT!
He doesn't have the talent
@@DavidSmith-zv7oq How do you know that?
Oddly enough, in this instance, I believe it could be cheaper to restore this one than to customise it. Maybe change the engine and electrics and find a nice set of wheels, but stop at that point
@joh5643 Have you ever seen him restore only thing, all he does is chop stuff up and not mechanically incine.
Not talented enough to restore..his talents lie in custom
Such a beautiful car the way it is. My suggestion would be to restore it.

Iron Trap is awesome. I don't think this car needs parts, but Steve would have this flathead running in no time.
Paul Sheiin is a flathead guru.
look in ashtray for keys
Why won’t you mention your buddy’s names anymore? Never turn back on longtime buds man. It’ll bite ya..
This car just needs a restoration back to original. Then take it out for a Sunday drivewith the top down and just enjoy the ride.
I vote you restore it to original specs. It's your car though, so it's up to you, obviously.
Guy asked him if he had someone to help him get the car running mechanically and Chad hesitated and didn’t know how to answer. Makes me wonder if Nate is no longer working with him?
Pretty sure he can find a mechanic if Nate's unavailable.
@@howquickHis history keeping people are bad look back to where he started, even his own kid couldn't deal with him.
I noticed the same thing ! Looks like Nate may be history.
Was thinking the same thing.
@@DavidSmith-zv7oq Yes so true your right his own son wants nothing to do with Chad doesn't that sort of tell you something about Chad's character?
Nice buy , don’t f with it.
He will

Maybe you can make it look like a Volvo?
Nnnnooooo !!!!! Leeeave it alllloooone!!!!!😂
Please don't ruin this one.
it will be bare metal and shorter by the weekend... watch n see.
Lol
He will
Destined to be destroyed, shame.
He doesn't ruin anything, you just have a really sad mind.
Please respect the car, dont touch it sell it to an enthusiast, we have enough Chad cars in the world.
Great buy 👌 enjoy it guys
I’m thinking Nate his history also.. Too bad he’s a hell of a wrenches..
I would love to see Chad restore this one but I am not the one spending money or doing the work. Absolutely beautiful car, such history and you working your ass off gives you the opportunity to get it.
The love and respect that Chad always displays towards Jolene, and vice versa, makes me envious of such a relationship!!
Called acting
Restore it, I have seen them go for a hundred thousand restored and custom only about forty thousand and less
What I'd do personally is byild a custom chassis for it and put a more modern engine and just make a killer enjoyable car
The market is fairly soft for these stock cars nowadays. The generation of people who love them are fading fast.
@@garylivingston9052you make a very good point, it's also the loss of people who know how to service them and maintain an original. most people today don't lift the hood unless it won't start.
What a nice find.

Sell it to someone who wont destroy it.
Beautiful car👍🏾
Do a bad Chad custom on it! Weld the doors shut and get rid of the windshield wipers and heater. Definitely put wacky suspension under it. Can't wait.
What a nice find. I'd love to have it.
Good vid
What an absolutely beautiful car
Really cool find and buy
Restore only!! If you don't restore it, sell it to someone who will! How often would you find one of these that complete??

I would put some vintage speed gear for flathead V8 on it. Get the brakes working good and roll with it. Beautiful car man.

It took 90 years to look like that. I would do as little as possible. Fix rust holes, color match and blend the Large missing paint areas. Polish the car and drive it.
Price pleas
Check the ash box
that car is a gem
There's a picture on the internet of a 34 Ford Cabriolet with the same color and red wheels etc. It's restored and looks very nice!!!
Very nice Car
Wonder how much it cost?
Fina is a great supervisor ❤
Keep up the good work bad Chad love watching your videos
Has anyone ever seen Chad RESTORE anything back to its ORIGINAL condition?? Unfortunately he thinks everything is better after he messes with it!! 😢
Not always! Did you look how beautiful this is?
Get it on the trailer as fast as you can before a relative shows up and says no!!😂
It’s so nice to see Chad this excited. Brother, you deserve this car for all the work you do every single day. So happy for you. ✌🏼😎🍻🍻🥇🥇
Congrats. Such a nice survivor car.
Wow what a great piece of automotive history.
The question of whether or not Chad had someone to help get the motor running was
A bit close to home. Lol
Man. That is a beautiful car .. lines on it are nuts.
THIS is a Museum piece.....treasure it. WOW.
Please donate this one to a museum
Looks good , Don't forget the jump seat guys.
Restore it..from Florida..it’s a beautiful vehicle..much love Chad & Jolene..

Please restore this beauty, not many was left of original cars out there.
I agree with everyone else do not chop it up keep it all original the value will be so much more. Not to mention you will be preserving a piece of history.
Have vicegrip garage come there and free the engine up. And have it running in No time, no reason to change motors
Derek called Paul Sheiin to get his flathead going. Derek is NOT a flathead guy.
Steve from Iron Trap Garage could get that flathead running in no time.
Of course none of them would waste time helping Chad. They have lots to do already.
