I got my brother to watch your videos and he enjoyed them immensely. He passed suddenly last week and I was just thinking how he will miss you, Jen and Gus. Thanks for great content!
I’m glad you got to share this channel with your brother it’s something I enjoy sharing with mine as well. We always talk about the videos together and I’m sorry you will not be able to do that anymore. I wish you the best of luck in your healing process
I have been anxiously awaiting this video and was so happy when I saw it pop up! This was my dad’s car! He told me stories about racing in it and how he wanted to take the engine and trans out of it and put it into something else. He used to hand crank it every once in a while to make sure she was still good but life just got busy and he didn’t get around to doing it. I am so glad that parts of her will live on! Thank you for sharing this!!
@@jamesburns2232 I would have loved the opportunity to work with my dad to put the engine and trans in something else but unfortunately life got busy and he passed away before he got the chance to.
Thank you so much for taking the time to upload and add the bore scope video instead of just recording the screen with your camera. It makes a huuuuge difference!
Wow that idea about offering the car for cheap to someone who bought a shirt was an awesome idea and a great way to actually give back to supporters/subscribers. Props for doin that man I hope the guy who bought it keeps it a long time and gets a lot of joy out of it
Just worked on my own truck, completed a repair, took it for a test drive, took the dog to the park, come home, dinner, and theres a new NNKH video…. THATS my kinda friday night!!
Helpful tip, carry a big jug of cheap dish soap to get vehicles to slide on and off your bed. Did this a lot when I was driving a wrecker. Great videos BTW!
I had a Mustang like this. This was a "Special Edition" Mustang. They were having trouble selling the coupes so they made a "Spring Special". They made it to look like the Mach 1. Rubber front bumper, hood with scoops, stripes, colored mirrors, honey comb grill and a special steering wheel. Search for 1971 Mustang Spring Special and it pulls up an ad with a girl lying on top of a red coupe. Nice find!
I had a '73 Grande. Same body, 351C. I put a Ram Air hood on it without the induction guts, and changed the interior from avocado green to black & grey, and the (badly sunburnt) green vinyl top to black. Repainted it Wimbledon White (original color). Loved that car!
I'm glad to see you again NNKH🤗 As always,we have a rusty pile of something beautiful,but usually not working. But these golden hands will make everything work💪👍
Digging that Depsteck borescope thingo cobber. I've been landscaping around this old building for ages and whenever it rains huge spouts of water guizer up from the cracks in the concrete and underneath the ground it sounds like a flooding subway tunnel ... that Depsteck borescope looks like a handy tool bro! Biggest fan in Oz👍 👍
The crustiest restoration I ever did was a 70 Monte Carlo and it wasn’t near as bad as this one. It had a lot of surface rust, but no cancer. I love your mustangs. I hope you can save this one.
What a gem. The 1971 351 Cleveland is one of the best engines. I think 600 bucks for the block and crank alone are a deal in itself. I had a 1971 Mercury Cougar XR-7. Loved that car.
Also the Broken Valves are really no big deal. The Stock ford Cleveland valves were not good Quality. They were known for becoming a two-piece Valve. Any Cleveland rebuild shop would replace them with a single groove Boss valve.
@@mylanmiller9656Or just ditch the 351 head altogether and use a closed chamber 302 Cleveland head with 351 4v exhaust valves. The 302 Cleveland head from Australia will raise compression, the inlet isn't overly big like the 351 4v but it does need the larger exhaust side. Problem was never getting it in, it's getting it out.
@@darianistead2239 Yes if you like to be slow use the small port heads. Maybe if you are looking for a low power low RPM engine the small port would be better. If you want power the big ports make big power,.
@@mylanmiller9656 You've obviously never seen 302c closed chamber head in your life. The point is it has the flow needed without loss of velocity making it an all round better performing engine, not a dud that can't pull the skin off a rice pudding with a 1.5k powerband.
@@darianistead2239 That statement alone proves you don't know shit about how to build or tune a Big port Cleveland. For a low power street engine you may want the small port for making power the Big port will make more power every time.
Great video. You were very smart for not trying to crank over that engine. It would have destroyed a lot of stuff in the cylinders with those broken off valves. Another great video and instead of looking at this as a failure, I think you are a savior for getting that rust bucket out of the dirt and taking off the good pieces and saving them for others who have good bodies to put them on. Thanks Kris.
brother years and years ago pick up a 67. it was a mess. it had been a drag car. he got it back together. and beat on it for a while you will like yours. you feel like your on the ground. thank you for the show sir.
That thang muat have been a BEAST back the day! All kindsa go-fast goodies. Should make some vintage rebuilders very happy. Good to see you wearing an N95 mask in there. Stay well.
Wow, quite the time warp under the hood. Mallory performance coil, dual point distributor. Holley double pumper carb (4776=600cfm 4777≈650cfm etc...) Yellow go-fast wires. Cool stuff. Linkage on the steering column was used on 4 speed cars to work the steering lock. Shame the car is that far gone. Make a great donor car.
Those slide blocks for the trailer, we used to use Del Taco serving trays. I still keep a set now for UTV or Buggies with sheared off wheels, put under suspension and drag away, lol....
Those are the large port Cleveland heads. Really high flowing for back in the day! There’s a 4 on the corner of the casting, from the old 4v designation, if memory serves.
Driving this car since 19. Now 58. Restoring a 429 71 mach 1. So sad to see such great car go away because some spoiled owner let it rot. They are fabulous drivers. Such a shame.
VERY-VERY nicely equipped. If you buy a '71-'73 Coupe, and it has the 351/stick, optional Mach 1 nose, THAT is the one to get. Bonus if it has Console, Power Windows, Gauge Package, and Air.
Between my Dad and I, we have 3 of these Clevelands, and some old dirt track/prostock heads as well. Best ford V8 made right there. It even gives the LS a run for its money power wise, even has the dry deck intake.
I have noticed that nnkh is all about us .he always wants us all to enjoy all of his content.i know it is all over a lot but that's what makes his channel so awesome.he actually works while he is talking.he doesn't just stop and talk for half of the video.but i am a fan for the rest of the channels life

Nothing to be jealous about, he gave it away instead of running it in his 68 Mustang. Would have bolted right up! You can tell he is not a real Ford guy.☹
The 1972 Mustang in forest green with the slamted back window , 351 Cleveland was excellent with the C6 modified tranny, Stock did 104 at 12.8 secs. Not bad for a rwo barrel. Got a 911 now. Life goes on for those Mustangs....
That Cleveland 4 barrel would look real good in your 1967! When you jumped on the throttle you would know you where going for a ride. It even looks like you got a Edelbrock Torquer.
The only problem about getting that Cleveland in that little Mustang is it’s awfully big in comparison to a Windsor series like 302. You can do it but be real tight and other work. But yea a built 351 4V Would devastate the 289
@@pete79602 The 1967 Chassis is the same as the 1969 and 1970, that Came with a 351 Cleveland. 1th 1967 68 also had a 428 that is a lot bigger than Cleveland.
@@mylanmiller9656 If I remember right, the 390-428 67-68's has shallow shock towers to better fit the wider big blocks. The small block mustangs had deeper shock towers. But still, the Cleveland is just a small block with huge port heads and would easily fit between the small block shock towers.
Great video I LOVE IT. Looks like some of my projects, One comes to mine with a 55' Ford Wagon. I worked on it for about 3 hours at the old owner house and drove it home, and same for the 56' F600 with the 2spd reared/ and the 52' Studebaker 3ton truck, 67' Buick with high performance 400 auto. Most all of my projects were sitting in the hot sun for a long time in dry grassy fields, and many that i am sure i forgot about 40yrs ago
I say, pull the drive train, rebuild that engine and stick it all in your 67' Mustang and yes the Cleveland will fit between the shock towers. You can also put 4v Cleveland heads on a 302 with a Boss 302 intake manifold and that sucker will sing! That Toploader 4speed is worth north of $1200 alone and a Hurst shifter will cost you like $300+ used (you can rebuild them). The 9 inch rear axle is worth $1200 and more if it's a limited slip and will drop right into the 67. Holley carb are is chunk of change and you can send them to places like National Carburetor and they'll restore it for less than half the price of new (Holley used to offer restoration services but I don't know if they still do that).
The hurst shifter is a stock ford Hurst Shifter Worth a lot more than 300 dollars they are imposable to replace if you are restoring a car. I can tell it is a stock ford Hurst because it has the Slide ends on the linkage rods. Hurst rods are threaded.
Around -82 a college (while i was working as Sheetmetal press slave @ Volvo Torslanda), had a Mustang like that, green metallic, like brand new. He was doing streetracing, to afford it he worked double shifts at Volvo. On the remaining hours he worked with the Mustang. He was thin as a line... I once visited him in his garage, when he was installing a brand new 9-inch rearend he had bought from Ford. It was that standard, hence the double shifts. Fabolous cars in that condition.. I have noticed that these cars look a bit big on photos, but his just low & sleek, elegant.... He raced it in cosmetically 100% original conditon, incl wheels, etc.
I absolutely love the videos where you talk about trying to profit off of projects. A lot of UA-cam car channels have motivated me to get into making a side hustle of my vehicle hobby.
I’m watching the Mach 1 Mustang video, I’ve owned a couple. 1st thing I noticed on the Cleveland engine has that number 4 on them which means they are the large port heads, you’ll be amazed how big the ports are. Also the Cleveland’s have the same bell housing as the small block Fords. So lots of good stuff there. Enjoy watching your channel.👍
Hi Chris Great score! Cleveland 4V with closed chamber heads Hugely sought after here in Australia… These things go real hard !!! Put it in your mustang !!!
Wow, nice find! that thing is one of the best Ford parts cars I have ever seen. lots of good stuff. probably built in the early-mid 80's and was damn fast. those looked like the vintage TRW forged domed pistons which would give about 12:1 compression with those close chambered heads. Don't blame yourself for those exhaust valves, the ports were full of water for a long time working on the metal. still heads worth some money for a rebuild core. great work!
That 1971 Mustang may be a quite rare car. Those stipes look to be factory and the only way you could get a coupe with factory stripes and color matched front bumper was if it was a "Spring Special". I believe they only made them in 1971, if it is an M Code (351 4V) 4 speed car then it would be quite rare. I just saw the #4 on the head, so those are 4 valve heads. You may have struck gold on this one. 1971 4 V heads are closed chamber heads, and those head by themselves are easily worth over $1000 as cores.
I saw one of those spring special cars at a car show. It was a 1971 model in red with black stripes and interior. Does have the Mach 1 front end with the hood.
4 BARREL heads, not four valve. Four barrel heads were large ports, compared to the normal 2-barrel ports. For a non-stock (and 50+ year old car) depending on the head casting numbers, could be either closed or open chamber four-barrel heads. My first car back in '76 was a '72 Cougar, and I've had 71-73 Cougars ever since (Same as Mustnags under the skin) I still have two '73 Q-code 351C-4V Cougars, and the Wife still has has her 22k- all-original M-code '70 Mach 1 351C-4V that she bought in 1983...
I'm betting that 351C not only has 4 barrel heads, but they are the closed chamber 4 barrel heads. Open chamber 351C-4V heads were introduced for the 1972 model year and can usually be spotted from the outside by a large, raised dot cast next to the "4". I agree, this could actually be a rare variant of the Mustang, but only if it is original. Given the modifications to the engine, it might be just a hotrod. 4 bolt block were originally just for the 351 Boss and 351 HO engines. 4 bolt mains were common with the 1972-74 production 351-CJ, which was the open chamber 4V head engine.
Where the hell you been buddy? I’ve been watching this guy for years. He’s one of my favorites and he definitely has some new nonsense know how……… and a pretty wife and a cute dog and a Chevelle that I’d like to buy…
@@John3_16Q no doubt! I dream of one day being able to look for old cars and get them going again but until then, I’ll just live vicariously through Chris
Thats sad. I may not be a Ford guy, but I am an old car guy. This engine was in damned near mint condition. Goes to show what not taking preventative measures to seal up an engine can do. That engine would have ran forever if it was covered and sealed.
only guy i know that can open a car with a FOREST growing inside of it and still get absolutely psyched over the gear shifter talk about Mr. Bright Side
Too bad about the pile of rust body. i have a love of 351C engines and really hoped you would keep it all together with the heads/carb/intake/clutch/etc. I would have bought the complete longblock with all peripheral accessories including the carb. Really hated seeing it being parted out instead of (Ideally) having 2 or 3 junk Mach 1's and making one decent car out of them even if the final car still needed floor pans/trunk pan/quarters, etc. it's still worth it to some of us early 70's mach 1 enthusiasts. But, i get it, u did what you had to do and at least saved the best parts instead of leaving the car to rust to oblivion in it's former grave. Good job and great UA-cam channel by the way!
Don't worry about the slow progress on the 67. It takes time to build the car you want the way you want it. Meanwhile it's good to see a new video. I'm hoping things with Jen and the new baby are going as expected.
Chris (and Jen and Gusman) , I commented on one of the first vids of yours that I watched - and you responded, politely corrected me..and I've been a fan ever since! Even got a NNKH cap down here in Australia, love your 'no frills' approach!
I never understand how a car (let alone a Mustang) ends up sitting in a back yard for so many years! You'd think people would sell something with the value of a car, instead of letting it sit and rot.
Dude my step dad has mustangs, an old GTO, a monte Carlo, an old rag top Cadillac, an old gmc delux pickup, a corvette all sitting in an old garage and his mentally is he'd rather let them rot before he sells them and they haven't seen the light of day in YEAR'S and never been driven as long as I've known him. Some people just hoard stuff. It's crazy to me too
The Mustang Grande was a more luxurious trim level, sold from 1969-1973. It was only available on hardtop models, and it offered a contrast to the sportier Mach 1 at the time. In the earliest model years of the Mustang,
If its the orignal 4 speed radiator with no connections for transmission lines. Rad could be worth some money. RAD could be same part number for a 1971 BOSS 351.
I'm not a mechanic but in my opinion, if the valves broke that easy, they must have been pretty soft and wouldn't have lasted anyway. Don't feel guilty we all would have done the same. But hopefully you got a few things out of it for your mustang, and thanks for another great video
My guess, based on what we saw was that the previous owner tried to fix the problem ( years ago ) and broke off that one old valve. Then let it sit for years as it was too much trouble to take everything apart and rebuild it.
@@AdamJ09303I thoroughly enjoy when Chris shows anything and everything around him and what he's doing. That's a part of what sets this channel apart from the rest.

@@pete79602 The 1967 Chassis is the same as the 1969 and 1970, that Came with a 351 Cleveland. 1th 1967 68 also had a 428 that is a lot bigger than Cleveland.
@@mylanmiller9656 If I remember right, the 390-428 67-68's has shallow shock towers to better fit the wider big blocks. The small block mustangs had deeper shock towers. But still, the Cleveland is just a small block with huge port heads and would easily fit between the small block shock towers.
@@mylanmiller9656 it much heavier than a 289 right so stronger springs ?
@@pete79602 the 1967 is 55 years old it should have new springs any way So to replace then with a heavy set is no big deal.
Great video I LOVE IT. Looks like some of my projects, One comes to mine with a 55' Ford Wagon. I worked on it for about 3 hours at the old owner house and drove it home, and same for the 56' F600 with the 2spd reared/ and the 52' Studebaker 3ton truck, 67' Buick with high performance 400 auto. Most all of my projects were sitting in the hot sun for a long time in dry grassy fields, and many that i am sure i forgot about 40yrs ago
I say, pull the drive train, rebuild that engine and stick it all in your 67' Mustang and yes the Cleveland will fit between the shock towers. You can also put 4v Cleveland heads on a 302 with a Boss 302 intake manifold and that sucker will sing!
That Toploader 4speed is worth north of $1200 alone and a Hurst shifter will cost you like $300+ used (you can rebuild them). The 9 inch rear axle is worth $1200 and more if it's a limited slip and will drop right into the 67. Holley carb are is chunk of change and you can send them to places like National Carburetor and they'll restore it for less than half the price of new (Holley used to offer restoration services but I don't know if they still do that).
The hurst shifter is a stock ford Hurst Shifter Worth a lot more than 300 dollars they are imposable to replace if you are restoring a car.
I can tell it is a stock ford Hurst because it has the Slide ends on the linkage rods. Hurst rods are threaded.
@@mylanmiller9656 Great catch! That car must have awesome!
Very cool, I'm still working on the 69 mustang, 77 corvette and 65 galaxie. Love bringing classics back to life
Around -82 a college (while i was working as Sheetmetal press slave @ Volvo Torslanda), had a Mustang like that, green metallic, like brand new. He was doing streetracing, to afford it he worked double shifts at Volvo. On the remaining hours he worked with the Mustang. He was thin as a line...
I once visited him in his garage, when he was installing a brand new 9-inch rearend he had bought from Ford. It was that standard, hence the double shifts.
Fabolous cars in that condition.. I have noticed that these cars look a bit big on photos, but his just low & sleek, elegant.... He raced it in cosmetically 100% original conditon, incl wheels, etc.
I absolutely love the videos where you talk about trying to profit off of projects. A lot of UA-cam car channels have motivated me to get into making a side hustle of my vehicle hobby.
And not in a grease ball way either. I always try to be fair and completely open/honest with whoever I deal with.
First time watching your channel. I had a 73 coupe with a 351c, so this video, to me, is killer! It's a sub for me and I ain't lyin'!
My favorite mustang, aside from the 69... I passed up so many long ago for cheap. WHAT WAS I THINKING!
I’m watching the Mach 1 Mustang video, I’ve owned a couple. 1st thing I noticed on the Cleveland engine has that number 4 on them which means they are the large port heads, you’ll be amazed how big the ports are. Also the Cleveland’s have the same bell housing as the small block Fords. So lots of good stuff there. Enjoy watching your channel.👍
Good to see y'all agen..Best wishes to Jen, all the very best for the future...
Good video on the 71 Mustang it was in rough shape.
Glad to see you putting the 289 in the 67 could be a neat daily driver.
Penn. loves their GREEN classics; I had an original Green '66 Fairlane from PA. Keep up the great work
Hi Chris
Great score!
Cleveland 4V with closed chamber heads
Hugely sought after here in Australia…
These things go real hard !!!
Put it in your mustang !!!
All that block needed was some dished pistons and one cylinder sleeve and he could of had a daily driver screamer.😔
Wow, nice find! that thing is one of the best Ford parts cars I have ever seen. lots of good stuff. probably built in the early-mid 80's and was damn fast. those looked like the vintage TRW forged domed pistons which would give about 12:1 compression with those close chambered heads.
Don't blame yourself for those exhaust valves, the ports were full of water for a long time working on the metal. still heads worth some money for a rebuild core.
great work!
That 1971 Mustang may be a quite rare car. Those stipes look to be factory and the only way you could get a coupe with factory stripes and color matched front bumper was if it was a "Spring Special". I believe they only made them in 1971, if it is an M Code (351 4V) 4 speed car then it would be quite rare. I just saw the #4 on the head, so those are 4 valve heads. You may have struck gold on this one. 1971 4 V heads are closed chamber heads, and those head by themselves are easily worth over $1000 as cores.
I saw one of those spring special cars at a car show. It was a 1971 model in red with black stripes and interior. Does have the Mach 1 front end with the hood.
4 BARREL heads, not four valve. Four barrel heads were large ports, compared to the normal 2-barrel ports. For a non-stock (and 50+ year old car) depending on the head casting numbers, could be either closed or open chamber four-barrel heads. My first car back in '76 was a '72 Cougar, and I've had 71-73 Cougars ever since (Same as Mustnags under the skin) I still have two '73 Q-code 351C-4V Cougars, and the Wife still has has her 22k- all-original M-code '70 Mach 1 351C-4V that she bought in 1983...
I'm betting that 351C not only has 4 barrel heads, but they are the closed chamber 4 barrel heads. Open chamber 351C-4V heads were introduced for the 1972 model year and can usually be spotted from the outside by a large, raised dot cast next to the "4". I agree, this could actually be a rare variant of the Mustang, but only if it is original. Given the modifications to the engine, it might be just a hotrod.
4 bolt block were originally just for the 351 Boss and 351 HO engines. 4 bolt mains were common with the 1972-74 production 351-CJ, which was the open chamber 4V head engine.
Those Mallory Unilite ignition systems are pretty good !
Yessssiiirrrrr!!!! Just finished binge watching like 3 years of your channel and couldn’t wait for the next video to come out 🫡
worst part of finding a new channel is binge watching everything...and thats it. wheres the next one!? :P
I've watched them so many times over and over and they never get boring !
NNKH is the best
Where the hell you been buddy? I’ve been watching this guy for years. He’s one of my favorites and he definitely has some new nonsense know how……… and a pretty wife and a cute dog and a Chevelle that I’d like to buy…
@@John3_16Q no doubt! I dream of one day being able to look for old cars and get them going again but until then, I’ll just live vicariously through Chris
CLR Cleaner. Removes a lot of those problems! Full strength of course will eat up all those problems in the motor sir.🧸🧸
Thats sad. I may not be a Ford guy, but I am an old car guy. This engine was in damned near mint condition. Goes to show what not taking preventative measures to seal up an engine can do. That engine would have ran forever if it was covered and sealed.
i like that you got everything to work with
only guy i know that can open a car with a FOREST growing inside of it and still get absolutely psyched over the gear shifter
talk about Mr. Bright Side
10:20 4 barrel heads. Score! Nice large ports you can put your fit into. (Number 4 seen on the corner of the driver side head, just below the coil.)
in 79 and 80 I had a 1971 mach 1 351Cleveland doul point Mallory. 4 barl. did 150 mph in Death Valley.
Too bad about the pile of rust body. i have a love of 351C engines and really hoped you would keep it all together with the heads/carb/intake/clutch/etc. I would have bought the complete longblock with all peripheral accessories including the carb. Really hated seeing it being parted out instead of (Ideally) having 2 or 3 junk Mach 1's and making one decent car out of them even if the final car still needed floor pans/trunk pan/quarters, etc. it's still worth it to some of us early 70's mach 1 enthusiasts. But, i get it, u did what you had to do and at least saved the best parts instead of leaving the car to rust to oblivion in it's former grave. Good job and great UA-cam channel by the way!
Don't worry about the slow progress on the 67. It takes time to build the car you want the way you want it. Meanwhile it's good to see a new video. I'm hoping things with Jen and the new baby are going as expected.
An old man relative of mine has the same car, brown. It still has its original paint. It's a magnificent model.
Wow! Just finished this episode. Amazing work chris, we truly appreciate all you do to provide quality content! Keep up the great work
Chris (and Jen and Gusman) , I commented on one of the first vids of yours that I watched - and you responded, politely corrected me..and I've been a fan ever since! Even got a NNKH cap down here in Australia, love your 'no frills' approach!
I never understand how a car (let alone a Mustang) ends up sitting in a back yard for so many years! You'd think people would sell something with the value of a car, instead of letting it sit and rot.
Dude my step dad has mustangs, an old GTO, a monte Carlo, an old rag top Cadillac, an old gmc delux pickup, a corvette all sitting in an old garage and his mentally is he'd rather let them rot before he sells them and they haven't seen the light of day in YEAR'S and never been driven as long as I've known him. Some people just hoard stuff. It's crazy to me too
@@michaelriley8002 yeah. I don't get that mentality either, such a waste.
@@chrisloesch1870 I agree
The Mustang Grande was a more luxurious trim level, sold from 1969-1973. It was only available on hardtop models, and it offered a contrast to the sportier Mach 1 at the time. In the earliest model years of the Mustang,
My man, thank you Chris, you're a rockstar.
I was sad to see the valves broken off, because I knew it wasn't going to run. It's a shame too, as someone spent a lot of money to build it.
Ran when parked. Lol. Was in mint condition when parked too. Lol
Thank you for your hard work and a good technical review of the repair.
A friend thanks to your videos helps me a lot in restoring cars
If its the orignal 4 speed radiator with no connections for transmission lines. Rad could be worth some money. RAD could be same part number for a 1971 BOSS 351.
Such a beautiful car. Shameful that someone abandoned it like that
I'm not a mechanic but in my opinion, if the valves broke that easy, they must have been pretty soft and wouldn't have lasted anyway. Don't feel guilty we all would have done the same. But hopefully you got a few things out of it for your mustang, and thanks for another great video
My guess, based on what we saw was that the previous owner tried to fix the problem ( years ago ) and broke off that one old valve. Then let it sit for years as it was too much trouble to take everything apart and rebuild it.
Enjoyed watching this one chris, the walk around, tear down on the motor, very interesting.
Better see a Gus appearance in this episode. He makes my heart melt ❤🐶 0:01
This isn't a dog show channel
@@AdamJ09303I thoroughly enjoy when Chris shows anything and everything around him and what he's doing. That's a part of what sets this channel apart from the rest.
@@AdamJ09303 yes heaven forbid he shows Gus run around in the yard for 60 seconds. That would totally ruin this will it run video.🙄
…… idiot
Thank you for sharing your extensive knowledge. I love watching your videos.
Chris's recording and editing skills are top notch! I feel spoiled watching your videos man, it's a night and day difference compared to most. Click the video, make it full screen, enjoy, and beg for more when it's over. On a side note, I'm loving what Jack @anythinggoesgarage5943 is doing with your Chevelle. That car is going to be way too nice for you 😂!
*I juust finished watching Anything Goes Garage, the red chevelle is coming apart* !
Chris,
I know it's lots of pressure on you... but I can't wait to see a new episode every week.
We love your channel.
If you ever come to Houston, Texas, hit me up... I got a car lift, air tools, engine lift... you name it, I got it!
This was an amazing video. I watched all 44mins. But I just came here to say, your wife is a smoke show. 😍
this guy is a great mechanic!
Glad to see a new video on the main channel, they're getting rarer and rarer, I hope everything's ok in your life Chris, you must be pretty everywhere with your daughter arriving so soon, a pregnant wife and the Gus-man, Turbo, the chicken, the bees...
Take care buddy. Love your channel, it's my favourite on Ytb.
Hey man, yeah I've been striving to stick to the two weeks schedule but things have been a little hectic lately. All is well though. I appreciate you very much for tuning in and I hope all is going good for you and your family as well!
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Take it easy buddy, don't burn yourself out, your life should always come first, and so should your family, and dude am I thrilled there's gonna be a new addition to the NNKH family soon... I suppose you're also eyeing new houses and properties judging by the clean up of your fleet lately, and I wish you good luck for that too, next video will come out when it comes out! You're a good man, but life ain't easy when you're in charge, we know it... Take care buddy!
Wow, I'm going to pick up a 1966 Mustang that ran when parked too! I think the last tags on it are 1974 but it's in much better condition this one.
Probably couldn't have been saved, but damn does it hurt to see it in that condition.
That's a three fifty one windsor NOT 351 Cleveland. Heads on a Cleveland have a stamp.In the upper corner front either a 2 or a 4 for Four barrel heads
I'm guessing you didn't watch the video. It's a Cleveland as shown in the video. 351-4v
Chris that Bell housing looks like a Lakewood scatter shield used to have one on my old 64 nova on my Muncie
That shield should fit all small block fords.
Thanks
My little furry friend passed today but this video helped put a smile on my face!
Sorry to hear that!
💔
Sorry for your loss 💜
My daughter lost her hamster too. Tough day.
@@karlos543 indeed
Only the one back mag is missing. Other than that it's a dam cool ride
Epic content as per usual - watching from Cornwall in the UK
Had a '72 ford stepside with a 351 Windsor. . Damn that thing was hot. My father and I could both be under the hood or dash at the same time. It would burn rubber as long as I held the pedal down.
