It's good to see dad not having to do all the assembly.
Landon did good, the next generation is coming along nicely.
Paul is mass breeding little youtubers with engine building skills and we can't thank him enough!!!
The smile on Landon’s face was priceless. Thanks for sharing.
Everyone is getting emotion about father son stuff, rebuilding motors and working on muscle cars, and I'm over here thinking darn we were really poor growing up. I remember fishing with my Dad, but working on cars made him so mad, no shop, middle of winter trying to get his work truck fixed in the driveway circa, early 1990's. Holding the light for him was without a doubt the highest pressure job I have ever had lol.
GB, miss you, still have dreams about you, and when its my time to be called, I will see you again.
Landon is very lucky to have a great father like you to show him the right way and he did the right color for the motor
I wish you would have filmed Paul discovering his new epoxied floor was covered in orange overspray!!! That would have been classic!!!
The epoxy floor was going to get paint on it sooner or later, the main reason to put epoxy down is to make it easy to sweep away the dirt, or at least that’s why I did it.
@@davidbabcock5172that’s why we did it
@@davidbabcock5172if we placed and finished your floor it would shine like a mirror, no need for epoxy.
What a good dad ! ❤️🙏
Landon is very fortunate to have such a great mentor and Father. Great family stuff... this state is great to raise a family.
very true you kids are soooo lucky
I used to work on my own cars as a teen in the late 60s. My Dad did’t work on cars but my brother in law and his brothers were Chevy guys and mentored me. They were the local hot rods and always into racing around. The one that was the worst offender went to work in the State trooper garage at about 30 and retired from there. I used to kid him that they just wanted to keep an eye on him. RIP Johnny Reb.
I don’t know who’s smile is bigger dad‘s or the boy
It’s been such a joy to watch you guys grow all you guys out there in Utah these kids will have the best upbringing anybody can have we need more families like you folks to make this country better again God bless your awesome stay safe 💯👏👍✊🇺🇸
Good to see Dar.
I hope Jace gets a scholarship! That boy deserves it for sure!! Idk if it’s in his goals or not, but I sure hope it is!!
Hard to tell who good he is compared to others in the country, but he seems to be able to hoop it up pretty well.
He seems good against what they have.
Jace is a good basketball player. He's not that good.
The best part about watching channels like yours is that I am reminded that real Americans are the strength of our country. Thank you for the reality check. jim and nena in Texas
That floor in the new shop looks amazing. The whole shop looks amazing but that floor!
Proud Parrents there!! Enjoy while they’re young!! We traveled with our son playing B-ball and everyone was like family. He is now 30 and it goes by fast! When he moved on there was an empty feeling! But were all tight and get together almost weekly! Both my 2 sons!
My Youngest is 22, Mom Practically Paying Him Off Not to Leave now that the Older Two Boy’s Moved on, Expanding The Ole’ Family Tree Procreating. It goes by Way quicker than One thinks. I was fortunate enough to have Worked Both My Older Sons & Both now are Operating/ Foreman’s for Utility Companies Local, Very Proud of them. Thinking the hot summers would deter them from wanting to be in the field, but then the skid loader and wheel loader and much like me first time operating an excavator they knew what they wanted to do the same decision I made 30+ years ago. Best of luck, Keep it Safe Out There
I hear ya, lots of football and basketball trips. We close some chapters in our lives and new ones open. We are in a rural area with some big industry so my two sons have great paying jobs without having to leave. I'm retired so now my job is helping them with projects. I have a repair shop with only two customers. lol One son has the same tech position I had so we can still talk shop.
Should have shown heating rod and pressing pin in. Very important to someone following you and trying to do it. Father /son time awesome
Ole Landen is becoming quite the mechanic these days. Paul, you should be proud!!!!. Apple doesn't fall to far from the tree.
What a treat this is for Landon getting back on the road and adding to his engine build experience is priceless! That smile said it all at the end. Good video.
Reminds me of when I was a young man. My dad and I were rebuilding motors and swapping them on weekends after I blew them up with my heavy right foot. Miss my dad, those were great times, and I learned a lot from him.
Thats awesome, its something that you will never forget but i hope he was making you pay for the parts to rebuild them!! It'll make a kid think twice before red-lining a motor if their minimum wage earnings are having to buy parts. It doesn't hurt kids feelings at all when daddy is forking out the dough.
I always had a spare motor for my 77 super beetle and then my 75 high boy I had several 460 Ford motors in the shed just because my dad and me needed something to do with ourselves when it was snowing outside we would spend the weekend building a motor I only had to use one of those big blocks I wound up seeing the rest of them
right on Kids have to feel reality in their back side eithe wallet or paddle, Im sure these kids felt it both ways.@@hustlinghard8081
I always got yelled at and told to figure it, so I did and rebuilt several of my engines(302 and 351W, 305's, 350's, a couple of 318'sand 360's). Transmissions,even 40 years later, are still voodoo magic, tried to rebuild 2 of them and neither workedz🤷
Landon is certainly becoming quite the mechanic
Fantastic 👍👍🇦🇺
First job in the new shop and its Lads and Dads! Nice
His smile when it fired up was priceless as a dad I know that made all the work worth it awesome job guys 👍
Love watching Jace play ball he's got some serious talent
Great job. Love seeing a Father and Son working together. Plus, you don't see any young men wanting to work or learn anything these days.
That smile on Landon’s face tells it all😂❤
Nice quick install on Landon's truck. That smile on Landon's face was definitely a Kodak moment. I see you guys got yourself a redheaded Michael Jordan lol😂😂 does any of your other kids play sports? Last but not least Paul you are a great dad 👍🙏💯🇺🇲
A trick I have found for priming LS engines is to throw some assembly lube into the oil pump intake. Helps generate the suction needed to pickup oil
Can't go wrong with a square body. Best looking truck in your family.
Land you are one blessed kid to have your grandpa and your dad building you a engine for your truck while you go chase girls
lol 😂
High school kids don't know how good they got it
Paul seriously needs to do a tee shirt with the rat petting half a 🫏 those who know what is happening in most videos will love it! Keep up the good work and thanks for the videos!
Landon, ya did good. It would have been easy to let dad put the motor in, but now you know more about your truck then 90% of people on the road today.
What an incredible athlete . Probably best shooter on the team. Please teach him how to do a lay up without it being a jump shot though. That will take him to the next level. Definitely college potential.
wow, Jace is a good ballplayer, good court awareness, nice range, and aggressive.
Thanks Paul for letting Robby do your body work!
Congrats to the first of many videos in the New side of the shop, guys have fun lance has a great mentor
greetings from Ireland its great to see ye working in the new shop .....
Nothing better than a first start up of a Chevy!
Landon is one lucky kid having his pop do most of the engine rebuild.
The only thing my pop would have done was assist in pulling the engine out of the car/truck. It would have been 100% on me to figure out the How, Why, Where, and When of parts.
No internet, auto hoists... many trips to the library
Work in the new shop! Nice! Good work toning down your voices for how much it echoes in there.
Jace is a great ball player very impressive!
Chasing girls is where the grandkids come from. Interesting. I don't know much about the newer engines. We did those old Buick V6, 327, and 350. I was a kid learning then. Set me up with a lifetime of rebuilding all kinds of stuff. We did a lot of Jeep mods. I got my hot-rod friends interested in off-road and they never went back to street. Love those old Chevy trucks though. I had a 1976 GMC C20 LB 350. Can't remember the rear end, but it was high. It's weird looking back and wishing I still had all that stuff, but remembering why I sold it. I keep trucks for 20 years.
5:00 My Father had a1 960 something Chevy Pickup just like that :) .. with REAL chains and steel hooks for the tailgate, 100 miles after you bought it the area around the chains was all patina and rust and nobody cared! :)
Back then in my area, EVERY truck HAD to be registered as a Commercial Vehicle, and according to law, either a registered company name, or the owner's first and last name had to be painted on each side door.. :)
Jase is a Baller, I love it!
PPPSSSHHH! That's the nicest looking back yard I've ever seen. It is true that you will find a back yard honing tool in Hill Billy's toolbox but you're in a full on mechanic's dream garage. HAHA
I must say I don't know diddly about LS Engines, but the front side of a small block chevy #3 rod is different from the front side of a #4 rod, as they have a little "shelf that drings oil up from the pan to lube the sides of crank and rod, so placing a 3 rod in 4's position puts the chamfer and the "shelf" against the other rod not against the side throw of the crank and so on. Did I make my self clear, it's hard to explain, but easier to show someone. I only write this because your engines that you work on don't last much longer than your transmissions.
Well, way to jinx it!
With as often as Landen blows up engines that front clip is going to need quick releases
lmao!!! so true
Not hard to make it tilt!
And a very good idea it seems.
It was nice of you to build a new shop for your boys to work out of.
Hope Jace don't forget ole Mom and Dad when he goes Pro. Wow he is good.
That is a sweet looking square body. Now it sounds as good as it looks.
I’m looking forward to the maiden run.
Every startup I was involved in whether an engine or a big wood chipper, I'd tap on the closest piece of metal at a fast pace for the eye popping reaction of the guy starting it.
Yes, they usually called me very graphic dirty names...
Jayce is a STUD ball player! Young man should be seeing some nice scholarships coming his way!👍
Nice seeing that shorty truck coming back together.
Cool to see you getiing some time to hang out with Dar, just building a motor.
Hello Fab Rats community!! Enjoy your day! Time for another coffee and sit back and watch.
Paul you and your son Landon are great team.
Two decades ago doin a top end rebuild of my first car, a Monte Carlo, with my dad when I was 16 years young is some of the best memories I have with my old man. He’s since passed to cancer a decade ago and while I forget a lot about him I still remember that vividly and it’s something I will cherish forever ❤
Never a shortage of excitement and things going bump in the night....! (or in the day)
Paul , I don’t care what the internet says 😉. You are one of the coolest dads in the county ! 😎💪
I agree, we visited Moab last Sept from TN ( go vols) had a blast. We have the same problems here at Royal Blue. Folks gotta work together, or things will get shutdown. Love watching you, Matt and Fab Rats
6:38 if you loose track of the rod orientation or pick up where someone left off, the rod usually has a chamfered side of the journal (faces tords the counter weight of the crank) and a flat side( faces the other rod back to back)
Man I looks like thing go much easyer in the New Shop with that NICE CLEAN FLOOR !
TAK CARE and HAPPY DRIVING !!!!!!!!!!! TILL ?
Man, Jace is killin' it on the basketball court! And that smile from Landon when the rebuilt motor starts is priceless. 👍🏼
Hopefully Landon can keep this one together for awhile😃
Howdy. Its nice to your son getting his hands dirty. Im sure he can learn alot from his dad (and shawn ect.). Even if he only learns on what NOT to do, that is a skill that even us older folks need. Thanks for your time and sharing the adventurers with us all .
Thats my kind of mechanic-en, shade tree, backyard, gravel driveway, carport!👍👍
Personally, I think you should put quick disconnect pins in that front clip as much as you’ve had it on and off😂😂😂😂😂
The smile on Landon's face was worth the wait. Great video.
I see Michelle’s project is moving right along 😁
It’s great seeing those kids work. Skills that will be with them a lifetime!
Did I see new wheels and tires on the FJ?
I’ve always been a one man band, gets hard on the body, didn’t make enough allowances for it…
Nice to see you usually having a team…❤❤❤
Hey Paul! A nice yellow recker arm boom jib crane in the new shop would really fit your theme. 😎😎👍👍My boss and I build a nice red one for his tractor trailer repair shop 4 yrs ago. It reaches any part of the shop.
Glad to see Papa Dar!
Landon has got a badass truck.
Definitely my favorite on Fab rats.
Paul, what a cool, calm collective dad you are.
Kids growing up with other intrest, you don't bat an eye and just dig-in to responsibility, no whine, whimper or cry, just a true man!
Great to seeDar back in the shop. Would be good to see him wheeling with you guys again.
I think Landon was pretty darn proud that it fired right up and runs just great.
Good to see papa Dar again.
I like watching this and watching how much of the work Landon did. Nice job! sounds great.
Awesome and outstanding as always.Priceless memories.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
This was a great video. I just admire your family. You all are so awesome. God Bless and be safe.
Wow, I'm surprised you actually tore down the motor to rebuild it, instead of just going out to the yard and pulling another one out of the weeds and sticking it in.
I guess I’m a bit more picky about cleanliness when working on engines…….clean clean clean! 🤷🏻♂️ the machinist that did all the engine work for me was a freak about keeping everything clean!
I think those old body styles trucks are much better than today’s truck they had more character
Wow!!! Floor looks awesome!!! I'm jealous!
That smile is worth it all ✓ next sand rails
Smart man, Chevy orange on the block like the old days 👍👍👍
Back with the living again ! Thanks for sharing !
It's cool to see you in the new shop.
Have an '07 GMC with a vortec max. Love it. Have had the "o" ring issue twice. Caught it before major damage. Has 260,000 miles.
hello how are you all miss you all
ok, this was an awesome video! Great job guys, the smile on Landons face in the end was the best part! Building memories between father and son(s) is always a great thing, great job Paul!
He seemed to gloss over the importance of correct cam bearing oil
hole alignment. If the bearing journal has an oil groove in the diameter, the holes should be offset as follows:
With block upright facing the front
#1 1 o'clock and 4 o'clock
#2 4 oclock
#3 4 oclock
#4 4 oclock
#5 1 oclock
Several You Tube videos are availble.
Nice job there all of you. It sounds good, I hope it lasts him for awhile. Thanks for this video.
Great job landon.....you will appreciate that engine more by building it yourself....
The rebuilt engine sounds great, very healthy.
He’s happy good for Landon.
Short end of the stick? he has the BEST mom and dad in the world, that help teach him how to succeed ! only one step back but many steps forward Great parents!
You guys are such good parents
Landon is learning stuff he’ll remember and can use the rest of his life. Invaluable stuff. Love that orange btw!
Love the basketball clips and all the interactions with your children. Priceless time spent with children is great for our entire society. We need more parents like yourselves.
Jace is a stud!!! Running the court like crazy💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I would love to see more of this truck
Your Patience is always appreciated, you did a Awesome job with the the Motor, by the way the shop looks great 👍
