i need more of Kevin and Angus fucking around in abandoned buildings
Me too
yeah
Kevin - “do you guys want to see us revive
Me - *yelling at the tv before he even finishes his sentence* “oh freaking course we want to see you revive it what kind of question even is that. Revive everything save all the motors!”
Kevin - “a go kart”
Me - “yes even a go kart. Shoot we’d watch a vacuum cleaner revival!!”
My dog * tail wagging in agreeance*
Yeah you pretty much nailed our responce. Lol
I revived my car immediately after this video. It hadn't been running for 24 hours but started up at first try " oh yeah, she wants to run baby"
I saw a riding lawn mower in there too. The only thing better than a revival is a revival that involves spinning blades of death.
This reply pretty much says it for us all
@@PjLoughlin Promise?
"you guys wanna see a go-cart revival?"... hell yea :)
Yes plz
Yes
Cannot wait to see the revival for the go-kart
Yes
Do it yall could build a badass racer outta it
T. H. Jeys founded the school in 1902 under the name Iowa Industrial Academy. For the first year, classes were held for its inaugural class of 35 students in the rented Baldum Hotel in Stuart, Iowa. The following year, it moved to a piece of farmland on the eastern edge of the town. The name later changed to Stuart Academy.
In 1911 the school was renamed Oak Park Academy and moved to Nevada, Iowa, where it remained until its closure in the spring of 1980.
Wow! I've been there 10 yrs and talked to countless former student and didn't know this! Nice!!
"You guys wanna see a go kart revival?" Well, does the Easter bunny shit candy?
🤣🤣
Does a priest shit in the woods?
Angus still has the coveralls and the exhaust pipes dangling off the back end of his truck, I like his style
Fellas you've strayed from your objective, the truck ! Leave the fluff for another episode.
Me too
Someone posted in the red Ford revival video that Angus is the Junkyard Digs James May analog and I have to agree
@@garysprandel1817Mook is clearly their Clarkson 😂
@@jeromebreeding3302010
Yes! We need a Go-Kart Revival!
Also, the way you fix a SortaSpark ignition is to replace it with an MSD box if you're rich, or an HEI if you're poor. Fuck DuraSpark.
Ye. MSD 6AL plugs right in. I'm prolly moving that way with my EEC-IV 300 I6; Duraspark dizzy and MSD box.
I have 2 go carts, new engines in boxes and loads of parts. Looking to sell. If interested hit me up and I'll send picks. Columbus Ohio is my location.
Duraspark’s are decent boxes. Reliable and efficient. That’s it. Not the best for performance.
I’ve never had any trouble with the duraspark
@@TestECull ford didnt use duraspark with their efi engines, that would be tfi
The "bobble-head" exhaust tips on Angus' truck crack me up.
Kevin... you and Angus together is priceless. Have me laughing the whole video! Love these latest revivals man, these Ford pickups are so sweet.
P.S. A go kart revival would be fun!
I'm glad Angus wore the overalls! He should be in more videos. The smoothness of his truck was very obvious when he backed it in at the beginning of the video. I figured it just cleaned itself up then found out about the carb swap. That was good to know because it didn't sound great in the previous videos.
I like how the exhaust pipes on your ford are teetering up and down perfectly balanced, they are just mesmerizing to look at.
Giving angus credit for wearing that he is wearing the coveralls that he found in his pick that they pulled from the same place three weeks ago
Going to town coveralls
And the "revived" coveralls make a return!
Yes we need a 4 wheeler revival
Brett, I was just going to make the same observation.
😂😂😂
Angus looks great in them
79 F100 Flareside with a straight 6 sitting for 6 years. I took an interest in it. Used as a garbage container so the wood bed was toast. Got it running after a couple of days and my daughter and I cleaned out the bed for the last time. Very cool truck. Hoping to see more old F series revivals on your shows. Thank you.
i like how he says dura spark is so terrible. I have a 83 f150 and it had its original dura spark box from 83 up until I had to replace it 2 years ago. And I only replaced it because it wouldn't fire when it was hot. If it was cold the box would work fine.
One trick I have found is since the dura spark box's dont like to be hot, I extended the harness for the box so that I could have box mounted on firewall inside the cab instead of having it in its stock location on the inner fender.
Ingenious!!!! Send vaporized rubber cloud upwards where it cools and congeals, thus sealing the roof leaks.
5:58 “welcome back to the world, let’s get you caught up” quite a wordsmith
This is why I love Kevin man, he doesn’t care the condition of the old Ford trucks he’s going to get it running.
Go for it
It's a Ford...it will always run
We have head lights, turn signals, horn, and radio all the electronics work lol. Damn such a simpler time.
so a little bit about that bumper sticker. we're late and smell like beer is a zydeco band which is basically french/cajun dancing music. the "hey toi" is "hey you". and those are crawfish, not shrimp. to properly eat a crawfish, you squeeze or pinch the tail, pull it separating it from the body/head and that is where the meat is. the head is where all the juices are so that is why you suck the head.
I still love the “will we get it to run?!?!?” Titles knowing damn well kevin can get anything to run with a can of carb cleaner and a couple smacks of a hammer all while saying “she’ll run”
Soooooooo Rebuilding a go-kart aaaaand saying "It'll be fine"
Hrrmmmmmmmmmmmm
She'll run, ahe'll run.
"Hold my beer ..."
noo this is not carsandcamras
They have met and made videos together. So yes, some of the sayings are going to overlap. It's just what happens.
@@rondogwil I hope they overlap into new videos yes but it'll be fine is cars and camras slogan
I’m really enjoying these old Ford truck revivals. My dad was as old diesel mechanic and he loved Ford trucks. Thanks Guys !!!
oh nice, might have to enter the ole 67 impala lol
I’m definitely gonna have to revive a 1968 Catalina I saw for sale
Yes! Revive the Go Kart! Great video guys. Lots of good info on those 351 engines. Wish you'd been around 25 years ago when I had my 78' F-250. Learned a lot of this the hard way!
Teng tools usa needs to make a pack called the junkyard revival kit of basic tools
Millon dollar idea imo
Now I kinda want to see more of this gentleman that lives there. Bettle without the front, Triumph, old Charger, and a lot of random vehicles scattered around.
Ask me anything. I'm one of his buddies. I was actually the one who hacked the front off the bug to get the motor out.
@@dylansnyder7757 ok I'll bite, why would you need to chop the front end of a vw bug off to remove the engine which is in the rear?
@@MegaDysart lmao
@@MegaDysart it's a new beetle.....
@@dylansnyder7757 having replaced a headlight bulb in a new beetle once you damn near want to cut the front end off just to change the bulb. Also, big fan of the mk1-3 vw stuff, I saw a few parts I could use, especially if that silver MK2 has good rain gutters.
You’re a dingo - Yes GO KART REVIVAL!!
Tried to bond with the female ghost and it disappeared 🤣
There's nothing worse than a "poop ass carburetor" 😂
I remember having 2 '78 Broncos and 3 '78, '79 f150s that I took the good parts of and made one f150 4x4 about 15 years ago and my neighbors hated me for a while. Awesome channel, keep saving the old cars and trucks. 👍👍
“Im on the stage!”
*cracks*
“Oop, I’m almost under the stage”
😂😂😂 this was a good episode. Haha
!!edit!! Every episode is a good episode, what am I saying.... jeeez
angus..friend zoned AND "ghosted" at once..poor guy lol
Literally just clicked on an older video of yours and saw the little notification that you had uploaded a new video, what a happy coincidence. Hope y'all are having a great day!
that red F100 is just precious! loved the blue f150 too. that burnout was SICK!!
"Dipstick 👆"
"You don't have to call me names" lolol
Angus is great, glad he is back with coveralls and of course you Kevin always
I see Angus still has the custom Sortof exhaust on his pickup truck.
It's sort of there.
I like how they rock up and down in opposite directions as he drives. Gives the truck character.
Its hi-tech, its bluetooth!
@@lucasceglinski2352 Looks like a couple of floppy, uh....you know.
@@iknklst Yeah. Just say it. Swinging phallus!!
Ya could say that those glasspacks “hanging” at the rear of Angus’s red ford makes it look BALLIN!
I'M OBSESSED WITH THAT REVIVAL RIGS INTERIOR
I'm glad you said that about no carburetor rebuild ever being satisfactory. I rebuilt several carbs in my younger days and never had a great result. I always thought I was just no good at rebuilding carbs.
Love seeing Angus' truck that was pulled out of the grave pulling another classic Ford out of her grave.
I love that Angus is still wearing the coveralls from the last episode!
You can’t just gloss over your bullnose, a turbo and a gear vendors overdrive! That thing is freaking sweet!! More of that truck!
I second that!
100% Any idea how rare a factory tach cluster is on those Bull nose Fords, let alone a diesel!?
Just found D germ cleaner in north Carolina. After seeing how it works for you, I had to try it myself. That stuff is amazing. Cleaned upholstery like it was new!! Definitely going to stock up!!!!
Your channel, is very refreshing. It's nice to see a young person with such passion, knowledge and just all around fun with vehicles. Deffiently gained another sub. Keep up the good work.
Love the video with Foord F150, I actually own a 77' F150 Ranger w/ a 300 six cylinder, love my truck.
I vote yes to the go-kart revive. To much fun I never laughed so hard.
🤣🤣🤣 Angus with the running the ghost off with a desire of commitment was hilarious, poor Angus, someone find that man a girlfriend, he out here trying to get some ghost booty!! 😅😅
Angus looks cool AF in the coveralls ! He is so the man.
That is one of the most cinematic burnouts I’ve seen, whew that’s how it’s done.
Oh hey a protogen
nice pfp
hello protogen, i see you have good taste in cars.
Watching this again, there's a story behind that Cleveland being in that truck. Back in the day Ford would actually take parts that were sitting on the shelf and use them. Such as my father had a Ford Torino (can't remember the year, pretty sure it was mid to late 70's) that had a numbers matching Cleveland motor in it. They would do things such as take engines and transmissions that were sitting on the shelf and instead of letting them sit they would put them in vehicles.
I am surprised that Mook is still speaking to you since you went ghost hunting without her.
She was the ghost, and she was hunting them.
Heckin' eh!
"I've always wanted to die..." *walks into oblivion* epic movie scene
The pipes on the red truck just kind of dangling like testicles!😂😂😂
The land of race car ya-ya's
So it’s funny. Took my ‘79 out for a cruise last night and it kept dying on me and eventually it would start again. However. The duraspark box was not to blame. Because the coil would fire every time but it didn’t want to start. Pulled the cap off and the reluctor wheel was a little crusty so I scraped it off a bit and jiggled the magnetic pickup and it’s been running goodish, since. Never would have thought to check it out had it not been for this video. Thanks Kevin!
Those old Fords are damn near invincible. Nice to see Angus still driving the F100
Go kart revival, actually revive everything. Love all the vids, I've watched almost every one. 👍🤙🤘
Duraspark seems to be like the Mopar ballast resistor. I carry one with me in my Dodge just in case.
Exactly like!
@@mikec9112 I'm not sure what the failure modes of the duraspark are. Some are reliable, and some not. Got a feeling it's down to wiring... The voltage regulator is definitely a carry a spare item though, I agree.
You've got to love Angus' exhaust system on his pick up! Not really sure what's going on there but it's probably going on in his head as well.
Bluetooth...
@@sykwookiee possible that it was a proto for the bobble heads. Those chrome tips are some kind of antenna in disguise.
My grandpa has the same truck, color-wise and stock Ford topper except his was a 460 ci and extended cab. When he sold it on the late 90s the seatbelts were still wrapped in the factory plastic.
0:46 Those dangling, wobbly tailpipes crack me up every time! Too funny!
I love the Bluetooth exhaust tail pipes and how they just dangle like that, you shouldn't change it, just put some mufflers to silence it
Them coveralls are IMPORTANT. Also, go go-kart go!!!
Want to see more of that idi ❤️. That cackle never ever ever gets old . I've gonna an 89 7.3
I had a '72 with the exact same topper. I sold it in '91 to a guy who completely restored it. Great truck!
Love the white squarebody in the background at 6:14.
I concur. Square bodies are far more interesting .
Wow that'd be a cool place to have a party in at night if I was 40 years younger listening to Maiden
I love those bullnose and brick nose fords with the idi diesels!!!
"That was a fear fart" 😂😂😂
With the right reamer and bronze bushing kit you can fix leaky throttle shafts in 10 mins......and the white corrosion in the bottom of the bodies that carb dip wont touch? Thats zinc oxide (many bodies are pot metal- zinc).....pour a little naval jelly (phosphoric acid) into it, give it a few mins, and rinse.....looks like brand new 😉👍
I rebushed a 4bbl holly 600 once and it worked beautiful,, it is difficult to get the bushing centered correctly because the throttle shaft usually wears into one side of the shaft hole,, I rebushed mine using a lathe,, :-)
lol at the end It looked like a 'Whats it got Stuntmaaaaaan" moment!
Please don't do a "No Mercy Revercy"
70's Ford truck, an afternoon's worth of tinkering = driving around, plus smoke show. 2000's VW Beetle, dead parts.
The joys of having a huge variety of car interests! LoL 😂
I revive my 2010 Chevy Malibu every morning, and am usually pleasantly surprised when it runs...
Haha!! I say the same thing every time I go to start my 2007 Patriot!! My wife’s 2000 Sunfire and my 1993 Ranger: not so much. They fire up no questions asked in whatever weather.
My first car was a 2009 Chevy Malibu and I couldn't kill that thing if I tried; which I did, multiple times
@@lucasceglinski2352 a sunfire running? What sort of witchcraft are you conducting over there
23:13 Angus is doing his Mook impression of her cute "Mrooom!" speeding-engine sounds when she playfully whizzes past the camera or out of frame :D
I learned to drive in the same truck with a 460 and would love to find and rebuild one now. Looks so good once cleaned up in my mind.
It's hilarious that Angus is still wearing those overalls!
Ghosts In The Basement: “We hear someone is coming that brings things back to life!”
Kevin: “Oh look a go-cart!”
Ghosts: “Dammit.”
I know a guy that bought an old gymnasium, had it mapped and photographed, then disassembled and moved to his property and reassembled. He had a super cool man cave in it..
THE BURN OUT AT THE END WAS RIGHTEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME!!!
Thank you for really trying to pass on your wealth of knowledge to everyone, especially the younger generation, (for those of us into these older vehicles anyway) gotta save on these old cars ya know, once they’re gone feller they’re gone.
Go kart: offcourse! But also that 72 Dodge outside!!
Hell yes you definitely need to go down there where cleetus McFarland is at haha an show them how Ford's do burnouts 😂💪
Loved the ending! I can't remember when I laughed so damn hard!
Hell yes too the go-kart revival and that was one of the best burnouts I've ever seen!
Appreciate the audio balance on the intro/outro; helps me watch with a sleeping baby in my arms! 👍
I have that exact same gocart! Bring er back!
Ha angus I’d still wearing the jumpsuit that came with the truck😂
Lol I thought those Geese were the one's that fly over by me and I looked up in the sky from the back porch 😂
that what I call good looking interior, love the actual design work and style in the older vehicles
Exactly. Style and just good looking. Not in the new stuff
For ghost hunting I recommend the Nebo Tools Redline 6K flashlight, featuring a rechargeable dual 26650 li-ion battery and 6000 ghost blinding lumens, in a turbo mode (6000), strobe (6000), medium (1200) and low (60)
Seriously, pointing this thing at my wall brightens my room up more than the sun does, and the wall itself is almost too bright to look at, i love this flashlight, its also a powerbank, is waterproof, and the power button and top glows after you shut it off
“The magic smoke” that’s what me engineering teacher says 😂😂
Less than a minute since the video posted and I'm in the top 10 comments. Sweet!!! Now if you'll excuse me I have a video to watch.👍
2 minutes for me!
11:13 "This is going to be easy!"
Have you learned nothing over the last 4 years?
Hell yes to the go cart revival! Keep up the good work, guys!
Holy crap! That '86 looks and sounds EXACTLY like my dad's old '86 turbo diesel. Right down to the "Main" and "Aux" tank switch even
"Submit your car revivals!"
**laughs in motorcycle**
27:51 that dodge looks like it would make a decent revival truck someone go get Dylan McCool
And the Challenger
That interior is like new
If I recall correctly, the topper on the '79 is a Ford dealer-accessory add.
Yup, it's the factory topper
@@dylansnyder7757 very cool.
That burnout at the end!! Awesome!! All that smoke reminds me of Silent Hill. Creepy...
