I admire not only your skill as a mechanic, but your patience and determination. No other channel really compares to yours in that regard. You sir are number one. Seriously.
I recently went thru neck surgery and while at home healing I found your channel. Its like hanging out with an old friend, working on cars, talking shop. I grew up in a Michigan drag racing family and have been in the garage helping my dad since I can remember. Your work reminds me so much of our own approach to fixing things... careful diagnostic and planning to avoid unnecessary work and expense. I continue to do my own work on cars, motorcycles, campers... you name it. And I especially appreciate your light heart and no swearing. God bless you and keep it coming, Derek! If you're ever in Vermont/New Hampshire (I have moved a lot) and need help, I got tools and a pickup truck. Be safe out there.
I figured out why VGG is so watchable! VGG is the fantasy land we all want to live in. Derek never gets mad, never rips the skin off his knuckles, has the tools he needs and things work when he's done. Also, he's always actually working instead of just sitting around watching UA-cam.
That is a fantasy. There's not a mechanic alive that doesn't rip the skin off there knuckles and get mad once in a while especially when things don't work out and you have to tear it apart again.
Thank you for providing countless hours of entertainment. After a long week of work, its so nice to sit back on Friday evenings to relax and watch your fun videos. Keep up the awesome work and warmest regards from Melbourne, Australia.
I had to tell you thank you for this video, my husband is injured right now, and unable to celebrate veterans Day, so watching him, watch you, I just wanted you to know you did put a smile on this vets face. He loves watching you, because he dreams on restoring a car some day. Thanks again.
Derek and Dulcich are, by FAR my two favorite hosts! The episode of Roadworthy Rescue with the two of them was GREAT! If I drank, I'd love to knock back a couple beers with them!
The Independence is how I found VGG. Was scrolling through UA-cam for something to watch and I saw the thumbnail with Derek and Independence and immediately I clicked on and been watching since. I began watching from 1st ever VGG to catch up and been watching since. I really miss seeing her on the channel. Like today even seeing a small piece of her made me happy. Can't wait until she comes back. Love that car. She means a lot to me.
@@jeffrowlette Chinese specials, available on Amazon as well. Eastwood has carefully crafted an image of 'best' when its really just the same chinesium as everybody else. It's good chinesium, but still.
I put a stock 360 out of a Plymouth wagon, in a 1974 Plymouth Duster back in 1987 ,and it kick butt back when you was a young man in school. Later we put a 440 in one had to use fender Well headers, Wish I could help on this build. Check on those ball joints and bushings. they wear out and you will be all over the road,
I absolutely love the Flowmaster Super 10s! This takes me back to the days when Flowmaster used to put sound files of all their mufflers online. Not sure if they still do that, but love this video!
Honestly if your life sux too hard & you're going to start up the Duster in a closed garage sucking on a bottle of rot gut, then you'd wanna go dirt napping to a heavenly growl.
@@ViceGripGarage Question I keep seeing videos with people using diesl oil in there videos. Can somone tell me why besides the cost as well as does anyone recommend using it in newer cars/trucks
Finally bit the bullet and ordered me a Derekisms shirt and a VGG Flag Keychain. Love everything you do Derek and family, keep on keeping the classics alive. Every car or truck has a story, that story deserves to be shared, and that vehicle deserves another chance at life.
Nothing like vice grip garage to soothe the soul and cool down a hot temper at the end of a long hard week. Thankyou and God bless you Derrick. I can only speak for myself here but I think your videos do a lot of good for the mental state and stability of many many of your fans. Never stop doing what you do brother
I put a pair of the Magnaflows on my 64 chevy 2 pro street, they sounded awesome as heck at idle, really a deep nice tone, then at speed they were way more quiet than I prefer. . So I took them off and put my 2 chamber flowmasters (Flowmaster 40's) back on awesome those were.....on my pro street anyway.
Love it! Love it! Love it!! I’m 63 yrs old, so thanks for putting the magna flows on for me👍🏼I don’t want to piss off my bingo partners! Come on girl!! Bring it home to daddy!!!
I might be a little partial because they are made in my back door I'm not far way from their plant plus I love the sound. I had a set on my older Duramax and they sounded good even though it wasn't made for a diesel. They sounded awesome on it. I was also a big Flowmaster fan as well.
I came to the channel because of the 63 lesabre videos. I own one that's glacier blue. I'm so grateful to watch all your content but glad there's a variety of odd ball stuff that most people overlook because they're 4 doors ect.
I can tell you “love” MOPARs. My dad , a lifelong Ford guy, used to call Dusters “Dust bins” which in case you don’t know is an English term for a trash can. P.S. I agree on your muffler choice.
Always been a fan of Magnaflow. It’s controlled and throaty without being raspy. Deep as you said. They just sound tough and mature. They’re the Chad of V8 mufflers.
Xlerator was also nice in a 4 cyl 2.3 turbo engine 3" dp and 2.5" Flowmaster cat (200cell) and end muffler is 2.5" with xlerator. Nice exhaust note i must say. That magnaflow would sound nice also i bet.
I have Magnaflow on my Grand Cherokee with the 5.7. It is just like you said, tough and mature, not obnoxious or annoying on a long highway ride. It also gives a good bark when you jump on it.
Your channel has always been great but it’s better than ever now as you add more cars and trucks, more builds, exhaust tests and Motorsport content. You now have the best channel on UA-cam in my opinion. Just keep doing more of the same great stuff and trust in your intuition as it’s always been spot on.
@@ViceGripGarage you’re welcome Derek. You’ve inspired millions to return to the garage build their dreams on wheels and bring us back to the America we all know and love. No amount of praise or money can equal that. It’s pure gold
Nice to see a working space with bearings, some kind of throttle for a moped?, brake cleaner, a claw hammer, test leads and odd things laying around. Looks like home!
I like the MagnaFlow the best. It's what I'm running on my 69 Camaro SS396. They're not too loud, not too quiet, they're just right. I guess that's the Goldilocks of mufflers.
Love the build and thanks for doing this giveaway. Since your giving this away, you might want to have an option to extend the exhaust out of the body because in some states like Pennsylvania it has to exit the body even a truck bed to be legal. Yes, PA sucks the fun even out of exhausts…
Derek, i just took my wife to a shania twain concert and it was phenomenal. She is 58, but doesnt look or sound 58. The 90s baby in me came out and i loved it. So definitely go to a 90s country concert if you can!
Good choice on the mufflers. Really digging this build. The black steel wheels and raised white letter tires, that, to me, is the correct look for that car.
I have magnaflow on my 3.6 Malibu sounds amazing and they are 12 years old. Also had them on my 06 charger. I absolutely love the low tones they produce. I don't like a obnoxious tones... Always be my favorite and they are known to add hp over others. They flow very nice.
Derek--I send a package arriving tomorrow addressed to Jessica--you always comment you should be dipped--I think Jessica is the best for that job!! Enjoy!
Magnaflow one of the better brands in terms of quality- excellent welds, a lot of pride in their internal baffling/packing etc. as a wholesaler usually the only time we saw returns on then was if it had a dent in transport! stainless is also so important when you consider the issues of condensation/heat/rust- a big cause of blowouts in mild steel mufflers!
I have a magnaflow catback exhaust that was installed on my 2003 vehicle in 2007 and it has seen at least 10 salt belt winters, still looks/sounds fantastic.
Yes you choose the right mufflers. Magma flow is always the right choice. They sound awesome let the engine breath while adding a nice deep note. The last forever.
Just saw you met up with fabrats and merlin. So cool. Those guys are from my neck of the woods. Paul lives 20 minutes from me. Made me smile ear to ear
Always a good time to sit down and watch the VGG channel. Great work Derek and Volunteer muffler. I also noticed a beautiful two-wheeled scooter under your shop shirt! Big fan of the Indian Chieftain!
Derek, that Duster sounds awesome. A guy is doing a great job putting this thing together and I'm looking forward to seeing this car finished. If I won it I wouldn't do a thing to it.
They all sound good. I put schoenfeld on mine with dumps. Probably to loud. Lol. Gotta get a better video with sound up on mine. Thanks for the video. Good job
When you finally decided on the muffler and those turn downs were on, you should have seen the smile on my face when you fired it up and it went to idle. No matter what brand of auto you may prefer, when something is just cammed out the a$$, it is magical.
I feel like even if the cameras weren't rolling, Derek would still be having the same conversations with himself underneath the hood... fussing, griping, figuring, making song, etc... 🤣
I do that on all my projects. Usually not out loud but talk it out in my head till I come up with the answer I'm looking for. Sometimes it's even right.
I was 50/50 on the magnaflow or the flowmaster FX, both had the nice deep tone from what I could hear with a bit of throat on the throttle up. I think you picked the best ones IMO
This was an epic episode, really love all the in depth of the knick knacks. You always see bolting the engine in, and next thing you know its running. The power steering just magically happens. That said, those lines are bastids... even the correct line for the exact application often fights ya 😅
Like a brand new line from O'Reilly with the wrong thread pitch I tried to put on.....dang metric crap looking similar and whatnot. After trying to thread it into a pump for 30 minutes I finally held it next to the other one and had a little breakdown, and then got a ride to get the correct hose.....
Had a Magnaflow in my Trailblazer SS LS2. The engine and the rest of the exhaust was stock, OE short short headers, 2-into-1, 3” all the way back. Super smooth deep mild mannered rumble, but she’d wake up the neighbors in the morning if I romped on it. Sounded so good, I’d smile every morning when I cranked her up.
My '96 Ram had a 318 with 40s on it, and it was nice and loud. You could hear it from a mile and a half away. My kids knew I was home before I even got into the neighborhood. It was the best-sounding exhaust I ever had.
I had the super 10s on my 318 van, and they were awesome. Really loud, but awesome. Someone stole one of them thinking it was a cat..... I have since changed to the Cherry Bomb Vortex mufflers snd absolutely love them. They are quiet enough to sneak around the old folks home, but get nasty when you push on the go pedal.
I got a couple entries for the give away 😊😊 And currently have a customers 1973 duster at work that is a 440 swapped with a 4 speed swapped car was a slant six car originally and had to do some fine tuning on the carb and make the headers fit since they were in to the steering and would lock the front wheels from turning. Maybe the 73 duster at work is my sign I could possibly be winning the VGG give away 73 duster lol. No no my luck is terrible lol. 😅😂
I have 8 projects vehicles in my yard because of watching Derek and I’m not mad about it, I got to catch myself sometimes I start sounding like him working on them lol
Y'know I was gonna put a borla on my truck, as I have done to every car I own....but they were out of stock, so I decided to give magnaflow a chance. I was impressed, and can say that after 5 years of faithful service....and burning out the packing...I'm glad the borlas were out of stock :)
Watching you go through the ignition wiring reminded me of my 69 super bee. Got a diagram somewhere to do the ammeter delete. The bulkhead connector was all burnt out too, because, mopar. Speed it for a70 fb 🤷♂️🤦♂️ Get a1970 mustang they said, be easier they said 🤦♂️
I am always amazed how much this man knows about cars, engines, the undercarriage, every piece of every vehicle. The history behind everything and can explain every issue and every fix that’s possible for every problem in detail. When your done watching you feel like you just learned something instead of just watching someone fix something. I’ve watched every episode multiple times. I watch at least one episode every single day
I was taking a look at your intro again, and I have to say I never told you how I like the new modern way that you found to plow fields! You kill to birds with one stone! You even replace the snow plow!
Ed here. When I was a young feller. My old friend Roger had a gold Duster. It looked identical to this one. We had lots of fun traveling around Maine and New Hampshire in it.
Should I do a video just on mufflers? We could get a dozen more brands?
Mozzle
Well if a guy dropped his lapel mic behind the car I’d have a better guess but all I can hear is tick tick tick(my vote is yes)😂
that be cool👍
Do they still sell the old school Cherry Bomb brand?
Well I reckon so
I admire not only your skill as a mechanic, but your patience and determination. No other channel really compares to yours in that regard. You sir are number one. Seriously.
And he’s a guitar man 👍

That is a fantasy. There's not a mechanic alive that doesn't rip the skin off there knuckles and get mad once in a while especially when things don't work out and you have to tear it apart again.
I also appreciate that he works clean. I hate watching videos while my family is around and the presenter is dropping f bombs everywhere.
Rumor has it the independence is getting a telsa motor😂
Did you somehow miss him completely tearing up his hand trying to get an engine to spin a few months ago?
This has by FAR been the most motivating channel for me to get out there and find a project. Thanks Derek and gang!!
you're very welcome, thanks for watching
I find em all the time, we're just too broke to get one 😂 one day one day!
It causes me to consider adding one more project beyond way too many...perfect.
Yes indeed!VGG made me find a 78 Chevy Silverado big 10. Thank you VGG 😊. So much fun working on it.
the best channel!!!

Sounds like your husband is a veteran, if so, I thank him for his service. Hopefully, he will get to restore a car one day soon 👍🇺🇸
Great choice of muffler. I personally love the Magnaflow exhaust sound and quality
A lot of time and effort on this rig! She’s going to make someone very happy! Thank You Derek, you’ve outdone yourself, again!
You bet!
One of the best parts of your channel is when you honestly show some of the problems you're having and how you work through it. Very interesting.
Derek and Dulcich are, by FAR my two favorite hosts!
The episode of Roadworthy Rescue with the two of them was GREAT!
If I drank, I'd love to knock back a couple beers with them!

That is beyond a shadow of a doubt, the best flairing tool I've ever seen. 😳

VERY high quality and works perfectly every time. Around $150 IIRC
I have one I bought from Brake and Equipment in Minneapolis. Works awesome.

You provide us with knowledge and entertainment.
Bought some merch in support.
Thank you!
appreciate ya!
And humor.

What can I say but VGG DELIVERS THE GOODS once again! Thankyou sir for the finest content on all of YouChoob.
also, please bring back the musical interlude. it was cool seeing you play on that one episode long time back.

My friend 71/2 swinger with the 318, sure was fun during my high school years.
I liked the flowmaster fx. The magnaflows do sound good. It would sound better with a full length exhaust
I put a pair of the Magnaflows on my 64 chevy 2 pro street, they sounded awesome as heck at idle, really a deep nice tone, then at speed they were way more quiet than I prefer. . So I took them off and put my 2 chamber flowmasters (Flowmaster 40's) back on awesome those were.....on my pro street anyway.

I've always been a big fan of the Borla mufflers good tone and not annoying
I might be a little partial because they are made in my back door I'm not far way from their plant plus I love the sound. I had a set on my older Duramax and they sounded good even though it wasn't made for a diesel. They sounded awesome on it. I was also a big Flowmaster fan as well.
My wife and I had our first date in the back seat of a Duster like this. We have been married 46 yrs.
Am i the only one that felt old as soon as he mentioned captain planet lol? Epic work as usual Derek! thanks for everything you do!
Great muffler choice. Thanks for the laugh at 46:05 too. :) I dig this Duster! I'd love to have 'er!
Another great Friday night episode...thanks Derek & Jessica!
Uncle Tony's Garage is in the Nashville area too. He's a Mopar guy. He might have been good to consult with on this one.
its nice to see a man and his family happy ! Derek shows you not to worry about making everything perfect. THANK YOU
That's gonna be a sweet ride. Sounds like it's raining on that metal roof. Love that sound as much as the magna flo
I've been watching everything on TV for awhile first time I saw your show on my phone
That tubing flaring tool is da bomb, very quality, handy, precise, useful and easy to use.

Flowmaster FX would be my pick based on how it sounded on my end. But the Magnaflow is a very good tone as well!
The Duster sounds great!
Hey vgg love the shows and knowledge.keep up the great work.
thanks
I’ve prayed hard to be fortunate enough to win your Duster ! Thanks to you and your family. God bless you guys!
They all sound good. I put schoenfeld on mine with dumps. Probably to loud. Lol. Gotta get a better video with sound up on mine. Thanks for the video. Good job
Love love love this build! As always a feller is just making hard stuff so simple... You are the best sire!

Y'know I was gonna put a borla on my truck, as I have done to every car I own....but they were out of stock, so I decided to give magnaflow a chance.
I was impressed, and can say that after 5 years of faithful service....and burning out the packing...I'm glad the borlas were out of stock :)
Derek, I love your channel. The way you work around issues is refreshing! Also, the way you talk, reminds me of my grandparents & also myself!!!
That one muffler reminds me of Spring Break 1984. Way Cool !
I like the sound of the intro to the show when you hear the guitar riff then the rev up of the engine, thats what I like.
Watching you go through the ignition wiring reminded me of my 69 super bee. Got a diagram somewhere to do the ammeter delete. The bulkhead connector was all burnt out too, because, mopar. Speed it for a70 fb 🤷♂️🤦♂️ Get a1970 mustang they said, be easier they said 🤦♂️
I am always amazed how much this man knows about cars, engines, the undercarriage, every piece of every vehicle. The history behind everything and can explain every issue and every fix that’s possible for every problem in detail. When your done watching you feel like you just learned something
instead of just watching someone fix something. I’ve watched every episode multiple times. I watch at least one episode every single day
I was taking a look at your intro again, and I have to say I never told you how I like the new modern way that you found to plow fields! You kill to birds with one stone! You even replace the snow plow!
Loved the sound of the Magnaflow as well!
So damm kool. Red Winstead from the dirty south Mississippi. I love the car I wish it was mine so kool 🐶☠️☠️☠️☠️👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😎😎
I really like fun loving attitude and your sense of humor, we enjoy the content with out foul language and temper tantrums. Your a great roll model!
Ed here. When I was a young feller. My old friend Roger had a gold Duster. It looked identical to this one. We had lots of fun traveling around Maine and New Hampshire in it.
Derek,
You remind me of me and my brother 15 years ago. I wish I was your neighbor, I’d be helping you every day. Love the father / son truck video.
Man you just won the first half of lemullets 2023 in cleeterville. Congrats.
Super 10 sounds awesome!
