How the hell do yall only have 13k subs!? Great work, all the way around, the filming, the wrenching, and for making full posts! So many of these shows make you watch 15 episodes for this much transformation!
Much appreciated! We hope to keep growing and hopefully faster haha!
@@DailyDrivenDeathTraps keep it up like this and surely the sky is the limit! Definitely got my sub!
There growing quick they only had a little over a 1,000 subs about a month ago
14k now buddy
Agree. Just leave the car or truck s alone. I hate when people. Lower pick up truck s
I have a 63.5 ford falcon sprint with a 260 and a 4 speed. My great grandfather bought in new in 63. I went thru and did a complete frame up restoration, keeping everything original. I rebuilt motor, kept it a 2 barrel kept the points and condenser stayed with everything stock. I’m now in the process of switching it 4 barrel and HEI and prob gonna put a cam in it as well. Like I said I went thru a lot to keep it original, got done and looked back and was like. “There is nothing of me in this car”. I even went as far as getting a trunk latch that was made in 63 for a falcon sprint when mine failed instead of just snagging up an aftermarket one. So with all this being said it’s your car do what you want. Make it something that has some “you” in it. Original is just something that rolled off some assembly line somewhere. Keep it up boys! Love these videos.
Sounds sweet and lots of work! Gotta add a lil "you" touch for sure. Appreciate that!
Also that top is probably one of the coolest and neatest things I’ve ever seen hell of job!!!
Larger wires, less resistance, therefore less heat that would kill the battery. Keep the large wires!
Yeah we got roasted in the comments about this haha, we don't work on 6v systems that much. Converting to 12 soon.
Not necessary to convert to 12 volts if wires remain same heavy gauge and all grounds are cleaned with knife or wire brush. May also add a ground cable from engine to body. Make sure battery is good and fully charged. @@DailyDrivenDeathTraps
@@DailyDrivenDeathTraps WHY??
@@jeffryblackmon4846 BECAUSE??
6V or 12V heavier gauge is better. Electric cables are similar to water pipes in that the larger the diameter the better the flow due to less resistance. it looks to me like the owner did a common upgrade to welding cable for the main leads.@@DailyDrivenDeathTraps
I would have loved to have the car when you got it but now scence you wrecked the look of the car I wouldn't take it as a gift.why did you want to destroy such a beautiful version of an unrestored 53 ford? They make a tool to take them clips off the door panel.
Your right idiots messed it up . Its originality made it unique Right on Brother your right
The reason they had super thick battery cables is because at 6 volts you require rougly double the amperage for every 12 volt equivalent circuit. (Yes pedants I know its not that simple but P=IV). On my 51' Chevy it had 4 Gauge battery cables and had a really hard time starting, once I switched to 000 gauges it cranks no problem.
Good info!
Battery cables too thick....what???? Six volt systems carry less voltage but more amperage than 12 volt systems so they have to have thicker cables. I suggest studying electrical theory a bit. SMALLER cables carry less current, that's why overloaded wires melt.
I love the car. I wish it was mine. I’m not into the patina thing. To me I’d do a brick colored primer, but I’d leave the top just like you did it. Then black seat covers, with a Mexican blanket covering the package tray. But hey, to each his own. You did a great job. My Dadz was a light blue green bottom with a dark blue green top. You know there were so many of these 53s in the late 50s that one night leaving the Olympic Auditorium after wrestling. My Dad and I got in our car to go home, but it wouldn’t start. Then my Dad says “Get out of the car!” We were in someone else’s car with the same paint scheme. I’m 70, but will never forget that night in 1957!
I'm glad it brought back memories! Also glad you said to each his own because so many other comments are just downright disgusting and now you know why some people don't build their OWN car. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, hope to see ya comment on the next one!
My father had that car when I was a young child (61 now), but in green. Brought back memories. Glad you didn't paint the bullet.
Glad it brought back some good memories, thanks for watching!
Old Fords are basically bulletproof. The Flathead V8 is also a legendary engine. Glad to see this car get a new chapter in its life
first video ive watched and as soon as i saw that barn yard i knew you had to be in iowa lol sure enough
Haha, that obvious!?
It’s not for me I am not into the patina look for my own cars but I can appreciate the work and she looks amazing. Heck of a lot better than seeing it just sit and rust away. Great work and nice video.
Right on! Thanks!
I'm the same. Much rather see it kept stock/original. My'47 Tudor sedan is all stock except for the 12v change done before I purchased the car.
I wouldn't listen to haters. Yall gave this car a completely new life. Patina with the black roof was beautiful then you guys put the lace in! The black wheels with meat and the chrome hubcaps.... Chef's Kiss
We laugh at the hate comments. It's great when people get so upset over something that isn't theirs. Great for views though I guess haha. Appreciate the nice comment!
I have a 54 . Installed a 390 and a 4 spd . Raised the front 2 inches and the back 1 inch . Yes I raised it ! Added power disc brakes and a new front cross member. 22 years later I'm still driving it !
That sounds like a fun car for sure!
Took a ride in the day, 57 Custom 2dr post, 390/tunnel ram/top loader/4.56, set you in the seat right smartly.
Yes... Get these cars off the ground. Sounds like a winner!
Good video new subscriber,my papaw had 53 just like that except yours in alot better shape sweet looking car I like it..
Glad you liked the vid and the car, Merry Christmas!
Large cables are good especially with 6 volt systems. Larger cables have lower resistance which results in less voltage drop between the battery and the starter. 6 volt systems are notoriously hard starting so they need all the help they can get.
Thanks for the info!
I have a lot of 50's trucks and tractors, all 6-volt and they actually start better in bitter cold weather than most of my later 12-volt units. If they are tuned up usually a couple revolutions and they are running. You have done a nice job, I hope you keep, appreciate, and take care of that sweet engine. Be sure to check and or change the fluid in the differential and pack the front hubs. I noticed what looked like a bad rubber brake hose for the rear end.
You guys are "form of forms" GENIUSES!!! Most of the population would have no idea what a 1953 Flathead is. If forced to guess, they would say 'a new app to download'. The nuances you gave it are ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. If I hadn't watched it with my own eyes, I would not have believed it!
I had a 52 Hard Top in 1961 and I loved that car so much. Lots of great memories. You boys are good at what you do even if you don't know it.
Thanks 🙌🏼🙌🏼
My Father had a couple 53 Ford Victoria hardtop's,the customlines all had the rubber floor covering,i think you could check the carpet box as an option,but was standard to the Victoria,239 flathead ,110 horsepower ,what an old workhorse , nice find there guys 👍👍, very solid driver in my opinion, Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
6v systems are supposed to have those thick battery cables.
Good to know!
Bro. I agree with your idea. This thing is rolling art and care. I love this thing
Love the work you did on this sweet ride. What so many jere have failed to realize is that hot rod culture is just this. Taking an original car and making it something unique. The lace top looks incredible, and I appreciate the door card fix idea. Love the channel.
Fantastic work! I personally own a 54 ford customline but I sadly don’t have a V8 😢. You gave the car a nice refresh and I love how the top came out.
Thank you! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
I also have a 54 customline. Nunez is the 239 oh v8
Purdy dash. Dad had a 1953 Ford wagon. I liked it
Seeing too many channels and vids doing 53 Chevys. Love em, but gets tiring. These guys doing a 53 Ford--about damn time! Love these and the Shoeboxes. Seems like YTers don't do enough of these. Thanks much, this rocks.
I would like to see just one of these car channels sell merchandise that is made in the USA. I am sick and tired of these flag-waving channels promoting all of their made in china t-shirts, can cozies, hats and key chains.
We're definitely looking into it!
I'm 64 and this car brings back memory. Back in the early to mid 60's a neighbor of my Grandmother Mrs Hamzy had one just like it only 3 speed 6 cylinder, we would walk about 3 miles to Grandma to visit and Mrs Hamzy would offer to take us home. I was 4 or 5 that back seat seemed so big to a child, I do remember she'd start out in 1st and rev up a bit and jump to 3rd mom would ask about 2nd and Mrs Hamzy would say I use that for hills.
Glad it brought back some memories for ya!
My mother drove cars like that my grandfather had a 1957 Chevy 210 6cyl and a 1967 AMC American 6 cyl
Nice!
The 1953 to 56 Fords were the best looking of the big three.
Those flat head motors are the coolest lookin motors ever
They look super cool 💪🏻
Back in the 90s i had a 53 Customliner with the flathead V8 and 3 on the tree. Loved that car, had to sell it when i got laid off with a kid on the way. Would love to find another one in drivable shape like that one, brings back memories. ❤
I'm 76, in broke ass youth was saddled w/flat head powered vehicles due to economics. So damn gutless and limited useful rpm due to shit intake limitations, must say the love of that past mystifies me. Got a good friend who's all about flatty's, I just smile and shake my head. My awakening was the first time I put a 283/220hp/4.11 rear gear to the floor. Call it an epiphany of power and beautiful noise, still in my head after all these years.
Glad we brought back good memories!
I don't know where everyone wants to do everything like VGG i would haved done the black and SPAYED the clear coat and not done the lace and I wouldn't done the sanding trying to do the fake patina and wouldn't lowerd it like everyone is doing i would have got it back to factory height but raised the back a little but thats me.
The 6 volt system needs the big cables what you need to do is put an 8 volt battery in it and it will turn over better.that is a good car I hope you guys don't destroy it..
I drove ‘62 Ford in HS and this find brought back many memories. What a fantastic find.
Glad it brought back good memories!
I agree smoothies look good on older cars not so much on later model cars some but just certain cars with the right accessories!
Wait till you get a little older , youll like 4 doors lol
Keep making good content yal are growing quick about a month ago yal where only at I think a little over 1,000 subscribers now ur at 14k. Imagine in about 6 months. lol
Thanks for the support 🙌🏻
Custom cars is what itis about , A lot of folks talk a game but do not have what it takes to do custom work , these young gays are willing to do there home work and encourage yours with these videos.
Love the lace roof, and I to see see your channel going to 1 million sooner than you think. I have only gotten one ❤ from VGG in the over 2 years I've been watching. Another way you can grow your channel is to go on tour. You know the ones VGG, JYD, and Pole Barn go to. If you can get a shout out on any of the big channels, you'll scoop up a bunch of subs. I don't know if you know Kevin at Junkyard Digs but if you find a Honda three wheeler. I'm thinking he would probably be willing to buy it from you. He finds them on Facebook market place and just can't resist himself. He is in Iowa I think. On the merchandise, I totally agree with the usable stuff. With your logo of course. Now with that, you should have stickers and I mean alot of stickers. Not just for sale ether!! Give them to everyone and put them where people can get them. You could also do some live streams, and of course give away some stickers in the live stream. You might even want to give stickers in other orders. I really hope you see this and it helps. You guys rock and I look forward to more videos. Happy new year ❤️🇺🇲💪
Happy new year! We've talked with Kevin before. Would like to do a build off at some point in life. We're mainly focused on growing organically as we can haha. VGG is great. We'll get to the merch part of things soon hopefully! Thanks for the comment. Happy new year!
isw that a anniversary model 1903 t0 1953
Yes it is the 50th anniversary Jubilee
Well now it's a ruined car that was in good shape before they got their hands on it.
This fake aging doesn’t look anything like patina. You’ve probably seen patina on paint, it’s not that easy to replicate. A flathead V8 is a nice mill and a shoe box ford is an excellent automobile. The roof looks sweet.
We'll glad you like some of it, thanks for watching! 👍🏻👍🏻
I have a '53 Customline 4dr that I'm leaving at stock height. Where I live (Kansas), I need the ground clearance. Function over style, guys. If you knew what a blessing it is to have a good grille in one of those, you'd not mess with it.
My first car was a 53 Ford Victoria with a blown up engine . It was originally owned by an elderly lady that drove it very easy and she sold it to her 16 year old neighbor that blew the engine the first day he owned it . I bought it and bought a fresh built Mercury engine and installed the engine . The Vicky had clear seat covers that needed to be removed . The car ran and drove great . The transmissions and rearends are weak and I tore up a few of both of them , the car would pull the left front tire when I really launched it when I was racing another vehicle . Years later I was with my best buddy that I told about the Vicky pulling the left front tire ( he told I full of poop ) and we ran into a buddy I went to school with and the first thing he started talking about was my Vicky that would lift the tire . Finally I had a witness to my story . That old Flathead Vicky was a really good car that I beat the hell out of and wasted . My first car was destroyed by me and I still tell people today to never buy a good vehicle for a kids first car . Bought that Vicky in 1966 and I'm 75 years old and about to buy a 1950 Ford 2-door sedan and put a flathead in it and just cruise around like y'all are and lower it and copy y'all's theme of your 53 and have fun . Got my 60 year class reunion in 2027 and that's what I'll be driving to the reunion hopefully in a Leisure Suit . Rock and Roll . Hell Yeah .
Dang, you got a damn good taste in cars.
Haha, thanks!
all the work to make it look old not to me repaint it same color and clear it . the body is so straight
In my carshow, this old girl is a star😍
Thanks!
The patina is so good, good call
The "slots" in the brake drums are for final brake shoe adjusting with a feeler gauge stuck in the slot between the drum and shoe.
Wpw y'all really fucked that 53 ford up. it already had cool patina paint, all you had to do was buff it.
Glad you love it so much, thank you thank you! We love making your builds the way YOU want them!
I'm 73 years old worked on lots of these ford's if you need to know something just ask me I been archaic for 50 years you need an 8 volt battery and it won't hurt the lights or guages
Looks great! I picked up my ‘46 Chevy truck and the outside looked like crap. Mismatched panels and lots of mismatched paint. I went to town on it over the Summer. Sanded all the bad spots down, scuffed the rest. Next, laid a nice brown primer over the whole thing. Then, pained the fenders black and the body gray. Finally, went over all the fenders and high spots which I thought would take a beating from the sun and wet sanded through the paint to reveal the primer in those spots. Turned out really nice and I get compliments on the patina all the time. Best part is I spent less than $250 on all the paint and supplies and did it myself in the garage. Probably the best $250 I’ve ever spent.
Sickkk!🤠
Needs a 2x2 intake for an 8ba, aluminum heads and a cam, will pep her up a ton
Sweet, we'll look into that!
Really hate what you did to an original classic car ! Getting it running and back on the road was great and all that was needed!
Well at least it's on the road, but our car and our budget build vid! Thanks for watching!
Nice job, guys! I was one of the guys who gave you sh!t about the drum/rotor thing, and I don't regret it one bit! Haha! Ya gotta have fun, and sometimes make fun, ya know? This 53 CustomLine was one awesome transformation. The lowering and wheels/tires really put it in a whole new category. The patina.....meh, not a big fan, as it's REALLY hard to create patina that looks like the honest-to-God real deal. Really not bad, though. That lace top really came out great, and the door panels and package tray look awesome! Overall, a great purchase and a great transformation! I really hope it does inspire younger folks to get into hot rodding the classics. That is a dying art form that needs to be revived and continued for sure!
It turned out great not just okay
Glad you liked it!
nice little sled good job
Thanks 👍
Ive been wanting to do a lace paint job on my 65 falcon
This is your sign to do it 💪🏻🙌🏻
Look good flat black. With torque thrust wheels but those smoothies look awesome too
2 door or 4 door, it's still cool!
Nice, But I would have updated the electric , brakes ,exhaust, Interior and left the rest alone. YES ! A daily driver.
Electric will be updated here soon at least
New to the channel and I like what I saw so I've subscribed. I think your channel has the potential to really grow. Keep up the good work. I like what you did with the car. That car is just a little older than me so it's nice to see the younger generation getting interested in old iron.
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching!
Don't care for how low it is , the fake patina is getting old everyone lowers their vehicle. I do like the interior. 1:15:30
Glad you like them interior at least!
Thats a nice old car...u are a lucky man. ..
Thanks 👍
im a young boomer , i would drive the wheels off of that.😎
As a boomer, and a grandpa, you boys keep playing, would soon see this than excising your thumbs on video game,
I really don't like fake patina, but yours came out nice. I think a matte clear would have been nicer.
Matte always does look great. Next build.
Think of the three on the tree shifter as an "H" pattern. From neutral pull in and down for first gear then Pull straight up for reverse. Then from neutral push in and up for second gear and from neutral push in and down for third gear . That is how my dad explained it to me when I was ten years old. Very simple .
I did the same thing with my 55 Ford back in 1971 when I was 16
Nice!
For the three on the tree stuff, the trans is most likely a sideloader borg warner. Whatever it may be, its easy to convert to a floor shifter. If you felt like it!
Not sure what we'll end up doing next!
Whatever you do, im sure itll be great
Noooo dont cut hole in floor. Leave on tree. Ruins s value.
This the third time I've seen that wipe-on stuff look like crap. Sorry you wasted your time on it. That being said, the patina looks like shit. Like the lace though.
Glad we can agree on the lace
Get you a cheap harbor freight spray gun lays the paint through a spray gun so much better. I think there only like 20 bucks. They have cheap air compressors too.That hood the way you have it sanded looks awesome!don’t pay no mind to negative comments buddy y’all did great for what you have.
Thank you!
Treat her like your grandmother with respect and honor
Don't butcher it, it deserves to be restored like a true icon of its time
Ope you're about to be mad.
Looks great. Love the fact you younger guys are keeping hot rodding alive
Thanks! Surprising how many hate comments we get but ones like these keep us going!
you do nice work ,but to old timer like me you ruined a perfectly good car
We can at least sorta agree on one thing haha. Thanks for watching!
I know leave original classics original I hate how people modernise and screw with all original classics get rusted out junk to do all that crap with!!!
@@amandastyles-uh6zx would you rather us keep it on the road or it rot and get sent to the crusher? All these negative comments make us want to do a video of us literally destroying it in a fun way. If you were at a car show and you saw us and this would you say anything or just type behind your keyboard?
@@DailyDrivenDeathTraps hey I didn't say I didnt like it you guys did a good job 😁👍
@@DailyDrivenDeathTrapsim just a little sad to see it loose it's all original look
In 1965 I had a very classy 52 Olds Rocket 88 2dr Hardtop. I guess they're quite an item now, having been famous for racing against the Hudson Hornets back in the day. Anyway, my friend's older brother had a 53 Ford 2dr Mainline in perfect condition, in Black and White with a new pleated B&W interior. He bored out that 239, installed a Crane Cam, Special pistons, Offenhauser Hi Compression Heads and Twin Carburetors. With the original 3 speed Overdrive it would do almost 135 MPH. I took it out for a drive one night and almost killed myself. My Olds couldn't come close to it. Nice Car you guys prepped for the road. I'm glad to see there's still some around. Best regards from your northern neighbors. God Bless America. RS, Maj Ret. Alberta, Canada.
Great memories it seems, thanks for watching and commenting!
@@DailyDrivenDeathTraps Thank you for your kind comments too guys. I just subscribed to see more of your Death Trap Adventures when they come up. Keep up the good work! Bob Steele, Canada.
;Back in those days we used 20 weight oil in winter and 30 weight in summer. I think I saw the heater core bypassed so the core may be leaking. I don't know about now but in those days you could take the heater core to a shop and also the radiator to be rebuilt. None of the plastic crap of today.
wow that is one nice car love it
Glad you like it!
You need to put oil in that car that has zinc in it
Another old guy here. That is a very nice find, especially in Iowa. One thing you may not know about your Flathead is that in mid-1951 Ford stopped using hardened valve seats. Of course we don’t know if that is the original block, or if someone had hardened seats added at some point in its life. Maybe the former owner will know. Anyway, if it doesn’t have hardened seats, unleaded fuel will cause some issues pretty quick. Look for the stamped engine number on the top of the engine, kinda between the intake manifold and the head, near cylinder #3. Decode it…. If it’s an 8BA or 0BA , you’re OK. If it’s a 1BA you might not be Ok.
Appreciate the info!
24:03 hell yeah. Get this thing hammered! Love it boys
I love it ! Such a cool car !
Glad you like the video and the car! It was a fun process 🙌🏻
Get ahold of Matt at Iron trap garage, he has the hop up knowledge and probably have all the old flathead profromance parts you'll need ,he has a UA-cam channel by the same name
We'll definitely look into that, thanks!
I was about to say the same thing
If they iron trap garbage they would be asking what the hell did they do to that car
@@janetc2092 judging by his cover photo and some thumbnails I'm not sure what you're referring to. He doesn't seem or look much a purist like your comment.
The flatheads are the best sounding engines ever with straight pipes not obnoxiously loud at all.
Yeah they sound super good
I'm 70, and remember our 1952 Ford Customline very well. Three on the tree, flathead V8, very similar to your '53. We had it until 1962. I remember every detail. Keep up the good work. Us boomers would prefer originality, but looks like we are quite literally a dying breed. 🤷
Appreciate that and this comment, thanks for watching and keeping an open mind about our ways!🙌🏻
A for effort on this one. The patina looks really faked. Faking patina to look good is near impossible and not something to attempt without a lot of experience. The lace top turned out nicely. If you make the dash black it would look cool to also lace that just to have some continuity in design. Can't wait to see how you guys evolve as you go.
Your ford has 110 horse power and it looks like shit after you lowered it ..that propane heater will kill you
Awesom man ! My family had one back in the early 50's. I was 7 and would ride in the back footwell with my 3 sisters on the seat. My mom would drive it too. A step up from the 46 LOL
Right on!
A great project restoration. I owned a 1953 Ford Customline two door in the late 1960's. Be king and gentle with her, she dersrves your TLC. Onward!
Thanks! 🙌🏻
Another awesome video guys 👏 keep it up
Alot of people are gonna complain about the paint but it's your car and it's cool to see something different
Thank you! Yeah people are gonna complain but that's the Internet haha, hopefully most will like it or at least find if entertaining!
I agree with your coyote swap suggestion
The metal work on that car couldve been done in 3-4 days...idk if you guys can weld or not, im new to the channel but it wouldve been very doable to do it right...hindsight being 20/20
It is much worse than the Camara shows.
Flatheads are nice motors , I would leave it as it is.
We most likely will
I'm a boomer. I watched the Javenlin video. Then I watched this one. Y'all are sketch AF.
I love it! The Ford kicks much ass!
Subscribed.
After reading through the other comments, I have a little bit more to say.
Ignore these bitter, angry old men who are telling you how you fucked up this rig.
You are young and you are learning, yes...but it is YOUR car, and you can do with it as you see fit. That is the beauty of this country...freedom and private property rights.
Don't let these curmudgeonly old fools deter you from your dreams and goals.
Go after it all.
Good luck.
Hey! We appreciate that very much! We don't really listen to them it's just fun to reply sometimes. Crazy how many think that way tho, wish they were all like you! 💪🏻
You don't see those cars very much anymore
Lowered cars suck! Why didn't you put stinkin bags on it? You better have your AAA card with you when you have a rear flat tire.
Why would we need aaa when we're dddt
It's not so much an age thing as it is a purist/traditionalist vs those of us that like to experiment and make a car unique and our own. I'm old (was a high school automotive teacher) and i like what you've done. Ignore the purists. They like to complain. I'm glad you're showing young guys that they can afford to have a cool old car.
Thank you! We appreciate comments like these!

Well done from australia. Iv.e got a 53 sedan, giving an old man ideas.
Glad you liked it! So cool we have viewers from Australia!
Using Derek's stuff on your vehicle turns any dirt and dust into an almost unwashable goo. Just ask low buck garage.
I'd rather have a shiny unwashable goo than dull stuff haha, hopefully we can even this stuff out with a buff tho
1953 if it's original the fuel needs lead additive .
Not needed for this. All Ford flathead V8s have hardened valve seats
That is one SWEET RIDE!!!
Appreciate it!👍🏻
I like the color of this car. I'd lea e orginal. Put on some trim rings. (Wheels) seen lots of these when was a kid. Cool body style.
