In my opinion, 1969 was the pinnacle of automotive style; certainly for American automakers. For some muscle cars, this was the year they became legends. The Camaro, the Impala, the Cougar, the Mustang, the GTO, the Challenger... the list goes on.
I came upon this video by accident and just had to watch it. My Dad bought a 1969 Mustang Mach 1 brand new and had to sell it in 1984 due to hard times. After his death in 1995, I decided to track it down, and I bought it back. Then, in 2004 I gave it to my son for his 25th birthday. He still has it and he loves and babies that car. It's a real tribute to his grandfather. My Dad's is a 428 Ramjet with the shaker hood in Candy Apple red. A real beauty. I still had the window sticker, build sheet, original sale paperwork and even the leather key case from the dealer that my Dad used. All passed down to my son. I wonder how many of these are still on the road, or possibly even in junkyards.
Patti P good on you. When I am older I am going to get an EH Holden tattooed on my body. My grandpa had one along time ago but sadly she ended up in the scrap yard. Holden is an Australian car is u didn't know just in case
Badjuju It needed some weather-damaged parts but the engine was mostly good, the parts for the fix weren’t insanely expensive or hard to find, the engine didn’t need disassembly
I Couldn’t help smiling for this whole video!! One of my dream cars as well and this was awesome!! Big engine, raw noise, rusty paint, and real American muscle!! YEA BUDDY!
THIS was classic roadkill and the reason we watch these. Back to the roots. Make a shit box go again. But where was the drive home? In reality it's missing the best part. All and all, an excellent video though.
It's official. The Disgustang is now my new favorite Roadkill car. Seriously though, you guys could make a killing if you released an official line of Roadkill diecast cars
My husband and I owned one brand new in 1969, fastback, 351, 4 bbl, 3:50 traction lock rear, hood scoop with turn signal indicators, racing mirrors, 3 speed stick. After the original OEM tires wore out we went with 235/70R- 15" radials on rear and 215/70R 14 on front. We also had the fold down rear seat option. Cost brand new in 69 was right around $2,800
I will go one better. I had 2 69 Mach ones a black with maroon interior the first . The second Acapulco blue 4 speed with much modifications .i paid 400 dollars apiece in 1972 they were wrecked before salvage titles existed after repaired they were gorgeous .wish I had kept them
2:02 It surprises me more than it should when people see a kit car, especially something like the Bradley's or an Aquila, and actually know what it is. They're just so rare and obscure it's sort of surprising to see them referenced.
That car is awesome! Put a sanitary interior in it, and leave the rest alone. It looks good with it's battle scars, and it's a true survivor! I would love to own it!
David and Mike have the best job ever (& I'm extremely jealous!) But they definitely deserve it. Freighburger (or however you spell it) you're my hero! Thanks for all of the real world content that every other "car show
Breaks my heart to see junkyards like this full of mostly rust-free classic iron. I just want to rescue it all, but I don't have a fraction of the resources, time or skill necessary to do so.
Roadkill tip for you. If you run a flat tip air hammer bit on the mach 1 engine mounts while it's running it will clear the rings. It will also move sludge in the valleys. Dumping in seafoam first and waiting an hour also ensures 💯 victory!
So they should only do dodge? Everything else is moot? Surely as a petrol head, anything like this is awesome? And why should being sponsored by them limit them to just dodge? That would be a boring show.
Just purely my opinion and trying to be humorous, but the Mopar/Dodge guys saved the Mustang because Mopars aren't worth saving......yes, I am a Ford guy....
agreed. my favorite cars are classics, and my favorites are the Toyota AE86, The 1970 Dodge Challenger, and the 1964 1/2 through 1970 Mustang. Don't forget the 1968 Mercury Cougar.
I miss RoadKill I remember in one episode they said that they were never gonna sell themself to a company, to be free on youtube. I now know that those days are gone No more RoadKill, no more fun. RipInPeace RoadKill
Are you high? Roadkill wasn’t ‘sold’ to a company, it’s been a product of that company since day one. Alphabet inc. (google) paid TEN (motortrend, hot rod etc) to produce content for UA-cam. Mike and Dave where TEN employees from Hot Rod magazine. Once UA-cam became huge Alphabet stopped paying extra to channels like motortrend. So TEN moved their intellectual property to their own website. Where you can either pay to watch the latest episodes without ads or watch the older ones for free with ads
Wow, I'd given up on the series and I see content either I missed or has recently been made available. I hope they get back to putting everything on line. It was the best show for just having fun with wrenching and, hopefully, still is.
Thats cos you dont understand why all cars shape is similar. New cars are much safer to be even run over by. The bubble rounded curves not sharp edges. All wipers and stuff placed lower so you dont get flesh ripped off. But mostly its for cars hitting each other. Old car bonnet crumples engine pushes into the footwell steering collum through ribs. But the bubble car is all crumple zone. A front impact carries the shock up the wings pillars down the roof all protecting the people so much better. Remember the motorbikes front number plate? How many people got split by those. Hood ornaments impaling people at just 10mph. Cool car DUMB DESIGNS. This is the future stupid deaths gave us.
Our Roadkill, who art on UA-cam Hallowed be thy name Thy junkyard come Thy resto be done On budget, as it's sponsored by Dodge Give us this this day our monthly episode And forgive us our stupid comments And forgive those who complain about paid content And lead us not into sponsorship overkill But deliver us from boring Dirt Every Day episodes. Ahhh...mint.
I wish there was a use for those old oil can spouts, i bought a few tote boxes from a speed shop after the owner shifted for his last time, and had a bunch inside. maybe weld 'em into lawn art. I can say from experience, those 1969 gas tanks work in 1967 Mustangs, you lose an inch of trunk space but gain capacity.
I have a '67 390 GTA Fastback that i paid $1200 for 30 years ago. I never liked the 69s , bigger heavier, ugly tail end. To each his own and sometimes I wish for AC but roll down the windows and listen to the rumble makes it worth the sweat. Nice to see this one running.
@@Ratfunk02 That's a nice purchase (I have a 1967 convert, interior/exterior decor group, honey gold, original 289 3 speed but someone put in a 351W with headers and a hurst shifted toploader--pretty much 1970's fuel economy technology). I wish Ford had done more with the 390 to compete with Chevy's 396. that rat was the LS1 of its day, easy to get 450 hp out of. Ford did some effort in 1961 to do a tripower 390 with 401 hp. but Ford wanted people to step up and order a 427. The 1969 and older models did get bigger, which gives some room for a big block (I also have a 1986 GT, there's fun with small blocks when the car is light).I will say, AC is nice :) I have a 1968 Olds 442, stripper model (except power steering and the THM400) with black interior and vinyl top and I live on the coast, so if you get air moving it's not a hot blast of dry heat like in say Nevada...but on a long drive the wind noise gets to you (the flipper vent window doesn't do enough). One day that will get AC, a new unit that takes up less weight.
It would be if it was one of the roadkill cars but this wont be it will be friebergers personal car not a roadkill car He said so if youd listened closely
You sir are smart. malls in my part get bad cell service inside. shell call when she notices you left.. and by then you will have successfully finished this episode...
Great car, great show! Its so rewarding just seeing how it looked before, and then how it looked at the end of the video! Amazing how you can make these classic cars run in a matter of hours, even though they've been neglected for decades!
I was thinking as they started digging in, a bleach rinse to keep the fecal dust down...Anybody work in hazmat know what they SHOULD have done? Urgh. Gag. etc.
64 year old paraplegic right leg amputee . 43 years in a wheelchair from motor cross i've wrenched on a lot of stuff over the years love your show had 70 mach1 + 69 mach 1 ; you really need to invest in some boots before you have a fatality on your FEET! cheers !😁Later Richard
I live in Golden colorado and have been to this salvage yard several times. They were very good and treated me well. I loved seeing all the vintage cars here and there.
Yup, I will say. Freiburger and Finnegan both have youtube channels that are well worth the watch. Freiburger especially. He has that good old Roadkill feel!
my 69 oldsmobile toronado is falling apart. i recently got my life back together and am back on my feet. this show is a good influence for me. from seattle Thank you roadkill.
darren reichelt I think they should atleast weld the floor and some other major rust holes, put a proper exhaust on it, rebuild the engine (new gaskets and bearings) and fix all the lights and the power steering and power brakes... I really want to see this car on the road... maybe even for a roadtrip! I think this might be the most worth preserving car in their roadkill collection...
Every now-desirable classic car was once a second hand ordinary car. 37 years ago would have been 1980. This car wouldn't have been so special back then, and probably had some problem that the current owner wasn't willing to pay to fix, so it ended up in the yard.
@@hauldr because it was a 10 year old used car, meaning it was junk. It wasn't a collectors car yet it was the type of car you would see in a demolition derby.
That car would be super happy for his new life. You just save him and bring new journey to travel again in this wonderful world. . thanks guys. . i love it!
These guys are awsume. Extremely entertaining. There's not much more they could do for improvement other than make a episode with restoring a 1974-1979 f150 that would be the topping on the cake for me. Double thumbs up.
Hi guys . I am an Iranian and really extreme in american muscles rebuild and restoring . but spare parts are going to be rare day by day here and this enjoyable job became so hard as due a f...ing dictator and fascist government that just try to fight against all over the world . i have some classics like: 1979 Camaro type LT - 1972 Formula fire bird - 1972 Chrysler imperial De baron - 1978 CJ7 Renegade and 1972 fastback Mustang 302 . I must be careful because when ever i will take one of them out it may be a problem ! probably one of their dogs ask me : is here America ? what is you riding are ? this is so clear that you cant realize us . what ever make someones happy will be forbidden even a beautiful American car but insiders sons are free along last model Porsches - Maseratis - Mercedes's-Aston martins ...by embezzle . Yes friends , V R in mullahs cage as hostages ! God bless you all and America !
It's nice to know that the love for these classics is as strong elsewhere throughout the world, even in countries where the governments are anti American. I wish there was a way to help you with your goals aquiring parts, but I don't know how receiving packages from the U.S. would go for you. I respect your willingness to take risks in fulfilling your passions. I one day hope to find a video of you burning the rubber off some tires in your classics! Best of luck to you, and God bless you as well.
That place is my favorite popcorn place.....lol. That family has helped me more than my own family when we were homeless and sleeping in my Saturn . ... I Love everyone there " Much love & Respect to COLORADO AUTO SALVAGE"
Even in thrashed condition, this is one of the most beautiful cars ever made.
Leave it Ford to offer a two barrel version of their top "high performance" model.

In my opinion, 1969 was the pinnacle of automotive style; certainly for American automakers. For some muscle cars, this was the year they became legends. The Camaro, the Impala, the Cougar, the Mustang, the GTO, the Challenger... the list goes on.
yes I very much agree such graceful styling it must have been hard building these cars
Yeah. Free hot dogs with every fill up of gas. Clint Eastwood is dirty Harry and Philo Beto. Grizzly Adams did have a beard.. good look in the future.
Yeah they were pretty nice back then
1970 without a doubt. The pinnacle of American muscle body styles
True for me it was the 1969 z/28 as edition
The fact that that car came to life after over 30 years of sitting blows me away and makes me so happy. Good job

Patti P great to hear you continue that legacy of your family
Hey Patti do you have pictures of the Mach 1?
Patti P good on you. When I am older I am going to get an EH Holden tattooed on my body. My grandpa had one along time ago but sadly she ended up in the scrap yard. Holden is an Australian car is u didn't know just in case
Patti P I love you
This is amazing
Is it just me or is anyone else still watching old Roadkill episodes?
We are all watching em my dude
I watch old eps over and over again. Best car show ever.
Yu
du
I want them to return to YT
If a car sits rotting for 37 years and is able to run with only fluid changes that car is the definition of pure quality.
You say that and then here comes episode 73 and the motor seized.
needed a lot more then that... dont know where you got that from.
Well, a leaf in the oil pan blocked the oil circulation. Can't blame the car ;)
Frederik19951995 How’d a leaf get in the oil pan?
Badjuju It needed some weather-damaged parts but the engine was mostly good, the parts for the fix weren’t insanely expensive or hard to find, the engine didn’t need disassembly
Yay! It's back! I missed this episode. Everyone outside of US really got shafted when these were blocked.
yup asking every year, when we get it back. no satisfying answer until now
These were blocked even in the US.
Why was it blocked?
A little bit of my soul died when the forklift driver raised it that little bit more and the car smashed the front
TheHK2127 Ayyyyy I literally groaned as my soul was crushed a little bit more...
TheHK2127 ikr
+TheHK2127 The front was already pretty messed up so that really wasn't going to hurt it much...
TheHK2127 canceled.
TheHK2127 yeah and the hood bent it crushed my heart
When the doughnuts started, I swear i saw that car smiling!!!
Junkyard rescues are hands down the only reason why I like to watch you guys.
Alan Abarca hi how’s it going!?
Michael McHugh Umm... NO, thats NOT how it works at fucking all. You really dont know how roadkill works, do you?
He probably thinks they just make one show with the car and then fuck it... clearly did not watch more than a few episodes...
Fury started nice, then turned lemon car (stripped down), then they junked it lol
Alan Abarca junk yard rescues kinda like your wife
I Couldn’t help smiling for this whole video!! One of my dream cars as well and this was awesome!! Big engine, raw noise, rusty paint, and real American muscle!! YEA BUDDY!
THIS was classic roadkill and the reason we watch these. Back to the roots. Make a shit box go again. But where was the drive home? In reality it's missing the best part. All and all, an excellent video though.
Adam Swanson only part 1 fingers crossed!!!
Adam Swanson thank you! I agree! I used to look forward to these all month. Not so much lately. But this one was good.

Couldn't agree more. This was Roadkill true to it's original concept.
100% agree.
It's official. The Disgustang is now my new favorite Roadkill car. Seriously though, you guys could make a killing if you released an official line of Roadkill diecast cars
Ive messaged greenlight many times telling them to get the license.
Austin Houtz the inner man child in me would buy all of them
Dodge will be definitely jealous on this episode.
They sponsored it don't think they can be jealous in all honesty.
but they could do a dodge engine swap
전희성 that's a good way to degrade a classic mustang
Dodge can go fuck the themselves
전희성 that would be awesome
Finally my favorite episode!
Who else thinks that these guys have the best job in the world?
True
the worlds geatest
I do
I want to be them sssssooooo badly 🚗🚕🚕🏎🏎🛵🚖🛵🚘🚃🚋🚔🚔🚠🚠🚲🛴🚐🚌🚌🚑🚜🚜🚋🚔🚍🚨🛴🚲🚲✈️🚅🚊

@@bertdemeule4802 a buddy I went to school with had a 69 Boss 302, Sweet ride.
I noticed this car didn`t have a posi rear end, only the driver`s side spun.
2:02 It surprises me more than it should when people see a kit car, especially something like the Bradley's or an Aquila, and actually know what it is. They're just so rare and obscure it's sort of surprising to see them referenced.
Because it was scripted ahead so Hardcastle and Mkormick would be advertized by Roadkill.
That car is awesome! Put a sanitary interior in it, and leave the rest alone. It looks good with it's battle scars, and it's a true survivor! I would love to own it!
yeah i hate when people take a badass car and make it nice like just leave it be ha
David and Mike have the best job ever (& I'm extremely jealous!) But they definitely deserve it. Freighburger (or however you spell it) you're my hero! Thanks for all of the real world content that every other "car show

"Aron isnt here" made me lol so hard the wife came asking me what was so funny.
I dont get it. (Probably I am too young :)
That was the most savage remark I have ever heard on Roadkill
ot0m0t0 have you seen fast n loud? Well if you haven't its a famous show and the lead mechanic left.
Mats Karlsson I don't get it. can you explain ?
Now you have to do General mayhem versus the disguststang at the Subaru rally track "dirtfish" head-to-head!!! That would be great

That would be awesome.
This. So much this.
JP fromPville "Rust-Bulitt"
That would be awesome, but they went and put a hellcat engine in it so that ruins it slightly
And Yet Another Great Roadkill Episode.
Roadkill tip for you. If you run a flat tip air hammer bit on the mach 1 engine mounts while it's running it will clear the rings. It will also move sludge in the valleys. Dumping in seafoam first and waiting an hour also ensures 💯 victory!

Frieburger the type of guy to wear flip flops to a black tie event.
You must have us all confused with someone who cares what Frieburger wears....Quite frankly...why would anyone care?
you notice he was wearing shoes to clean poo out of the car tho right.

He has standards you know. ;)
he got that from gray baskerville....R.I.P....

MY FAVOURITE EPISODE IS BACK. YES MOTORTREND
POWERED BY DODGE
Ok guys today we’re gonna repair a 1969 Ford Mustang
@taxid3rmy i mean idk im diehard when it comes to loving everything dodge but that old mustang has some charm to it the body style looks superb
So they should only do dodge? Everything else is moot? Surely as a petrol head, anything like this is awesome? And why should being sponsored by them limit them to just dodge? That would be a boring show.
Nice you know how to copy other comments
Just purely my opinion and trying to be humorous, but the Mopar/Dodge guys saved the Mustang because Mopars aren't worth saving......yes, I am a Ford guy....
After watching this video, I wanted a Mustang from junkyard
Huntley everyone does
i live in poland. where you can find on junkyards shitcars for less than 100$
Huntley im 11 i have 67 inline 6 with drag slicks on it
agreed. my favorite cars are classics, and my favorites are the Toyota AE86, The 1970 Dodge Challenger, and the 1964 1/2 through 1970 Mustang. Don't forget the 1968 Mercury Cougar.
Huntley is cool
had 69 [not a Mach] in HS 1978 and sold it in 84 ....man it was sweet to see them breath some life back in that!! Ha haha loved the oil can spout LoL
I miss RoadKill
I remember in one episode they said that they were never gonna sell themself to a company, to be free on youtube.
I now know that those days are gone
No more RoadKill, no more fun.
RipInPeace RoadKill

I'm extremely excited to see what you guys do with this car,

Well you probably want to see it fully restored perfectly but they'll probably crush it for fun...
10:50 killed me haha "Aarons not here"

It's a reverse convertible.

Anyone else mad that cars aren’t built like this anymore? Everything just looks like a Toyota Corolla and it’s upsetting me
Ur right
Modern cars are rounded to try to counter drag.
100% agree. Don’t even get me started on Prius’s or daily drivers like Honda pilots. Uhhhh why can’t they make cars like they used too anymore????

its not a GT500 thou....

I guess if you squint your ears.
It would be if it was one of the roadkill cars but this wont be it will be friebergers personal car not a roadkill car He said so if youd listened closely

I love it when a plan comes together or is it just you two when you get together…. Wish I had some of your talents you guys are awesome

Haven't watched yet, but I can already tell this is gonna be good.
+aMondia It's good but at 37 minutes it's too short of a show.Decent find though.
I need a crowbar or a driveshaft this guy is the best
left my girl at the mall this better be worth the backlash
sillywun76 what ur girl doing at a mall so early...😂😂7 am Eastern time ....4 am pacific....😂😂😂OK OK just a joke
Yeah what this guy said ^ dumbass why do you read everything except where he said "just a joke" and get salty on the other shit only
You sir are smart. malls in my part get bad cell service inside. shell call when she notices you left.. and by then you will have successfully finished this episode...
don't worry she is fine
Great car, great show! Its so rewarding just seeing how it looked before, and then how it looked at the end of the video! Amazing how you can make these classic cars run in a matter of hours, even though they've been neglected for decades!
the Piston plane truck also came out in Jay's garage
Who wants to have one too?
Marlon Rauscher you have noooo fucking idea🤤 1969 Mustang fastback with a 302 engine🤤🤤😭😭😭😭🤤🤤
THAT IS MY DREAM CAR
SotoPlays ikr... 25k later....🤣😂
I want it.
MegaJohnmcclain 7:10 oh cute! What's that little orange car over there?
Why not just start every build by making a dam of oil dry around the entire car?
bludmakesgrassgrow because it's not a roadkill move
bludmakesgrassgrow cause that would make sense and we all know in roadkill common sense is nonexistent
I was thinking as they started digging in, a bleach rinse to keep the fecal dust down...Anybody work in hazmat know what they SHOULD have done? Urgh. Gag. etc.
Love the wheels you put on it! I had 68 , Buddy had the 69 Back in the day. 302 in both. I enjoyed watching this and shared it with him...
64 year old paraplegic right leg amputee . 43 years in a wheelchair from motor cross i've wrenched on a lot of stuff over the years love your show had 70 mach1 + 69 mach 1 ; you really need to invest in some boots before you have a fatality on your FEET! cheers !😁Later Richard
(36yrs) I twisted my back in my sleep and have barely been able to walk for 8 days since, they don't build us like they used to, you're awesome.
Aaron's not here
Freaking Legends.
Roadkill>GMG
He busy revving up the powerful Mach 1 !!
its 'mach none'
Starkid 1236 not that powerful the70 boss came the 429 with semi hemisferical heads
Appreciate the “Speed Racer” Reference
I live in Golden colorado and have been to this salvage yard several times. They were very good and treated me well. I loved seeing all the vintage cars here and there.
I want y'all to keep saving cars it's really cool saving cars specialty very old models
You guys didn't start with the check list written on cardboard.
They did mention they were spoiled in this episode 😂
Who is here in 2024 and miss the old roadkill
Yup, I will say. Freiburger and Finnegan both have youtube channels that are well worth the watch. Freiburger especially. He has that good old Roadkill feel!
my 69 oldsmobile toronado is falling apart. i recently got my life back together and am back on my feet. this show is a good influence for me. from seattle Thank you roadkill.
"this family is so awesome" one second later "I can't wait to drive away from here".
YUS!!! My life is complete. he said Canadia!!! xD
If only networks in America and the BBC made shows even half this good.
If cars had feelings, this Mustang would be like a dog reunited with their owner after 8 years.
Ellenor Malik how do you know they don't?
Mizuki, it's because I know how cars work.
Mizuki Shiba because it's a fucking machine and it's impossible for machines to have feelings
Adam Nasir For the Brotherhood?
The dog is dead, remember?
this is the first time i'll ever say this but please Restore this car! like if you agree
darren reichelt I think they should atleast weld the floor and some other major rust holes, put a proper exhaust on it, rebuild the engine (new gaskets and bearings) and fix all the lights and the power steering and power brakes... I really want to see this car on the road... maybe even for a roadtrip! I think this might be the most worth preserving car in their roadkill collection...
darren reichelt I'd like to see a General Mayhem rival. Looks battered and broken, but runs like hell!
BLASPHEMY
Build it it up/fix it
Nah that'd be unnecessary. It'd take a lot of money to restore it, they made it good cheaply.
Why do cars like this go to the scrap pile??????
I dont understand how it was overlooked for 30 years. Seeing that Mach1 badge is like striking gold
Every now-desirable classic car was once a second hand ordinary car. 37 years ago would have been 1980. This car wouldn't have been so special back then, and probably had some problem that the current owner wasn't willing to pay to fix, so it ended up in the yard.
Jeffrey Ellis AHH HYBRID PREACHER!
BEGONE THOT!
for real why was it there to begin with it had no actual defects we could see that would have been bad enough to junk it when it was in its prime
@@hauldr because it was a 10 year old used car, meaning it was junk. It wasn't a collectors car yet it was the type of car you would see in a demolition derby.
This is the first episode of roadkill I watched and you guys are crazy for sure . Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!
All that work to get the hood on and you know at some point they're going to tie it to the roof anyway.
or not... 1300 miles later
I keep pushing air out my nose when something Dusty happens like I'm trying to keep it out my nose🙊🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽😊
Rip dog

I've had over a thousand but cool that you're excited bout 6 likes
So you're happy that you got 6 likes there is one more
That car would be super happy for his new life. You just save him and bring new journey to travel again in this wonderful world. . thanks guys. . i love it!
Thats what i was thinking. I love watching car restoration shows where they see a car and give it a second chance at a great life.
Is it a coincidence that the episode is 37 minutes long and you are rescuing a Mach 1 Mustang that has been sitting for 37 years?
Why do people leave cars like that behind?
Right!!!...
because the owner dies?
because they were not valuable at the time they were normal cars one day we will look back at a 2017 mustang and say the same thing
So people like us have something to appreciate.
strate gies autism
sometimes when a decent car shows up it kills me that it's not fixed up the right way
APP 125 True , I've seen cars in good shape just rotting away. And they look amazing for being in a junkyard. sad
Better that its running and driving at all instead of being left to rot
Man I love the sound of that engine !!!!! Brings a smile to my face.
It sounds so bad that my tv's subtitles read whenever the car was Idling as tractor idling
DUKE BOY xD I'm dead
DUKE BOY it does sound like a tractor, so it's not wrong
DUKE BOY sounds great dude
Dukenqaurters Athens first time they started the car it sounded like right before my lawn mower engine blew up. It was a 23 year old lawn mower
Starting the car with a couple drip pans under the car would've helped lol
I think you should have got some help from chrisfix
Every Thing Channel omg yes. He would have been stoked to help on the build
Every Thing Channel coulda woulda shuda
Every Thing Channel 😂😂
He lives in the UK though would've been cool aswell
Heeeeey guys...
These guys are awsume. Extremely entertaining. There's not much more they could do for improvement other than make a episode with restoring a 1974-1979 f150 that would be the topping on the cake for me. Double thumbs up.
Hi guys .
I am an Iranian and really extreme in american muscles rebuild and restoring . but spare parts are going to be rare day by day here and this enjoyable job became so hard as due a f...ing dictator and fascist government that just try to fight against all over the world . i have some classics like: 1979 Camaro type LT - 1972 Formula fire bird - 1972 Chrysler imperial De baron - 1978 CJ7 Renegade and 1972 fastback Mustang 302 . I must be careful because when ever i will take one of them out it may be a problem ! probably one of their dogs ask me : is here America ? what is you riding are ?
this is so clear that you cant realize us . what ever make someones happy will be forbidden even a beautiful American car but insiders sons are free along last model Porsches - Maseratis - Mercedes's-Aston martins ...by embezzle . Yes friends , V R in mullahs cage as hostages !
God bless you all and America !
I have a 1971 fastback 302 but I’m not done yet paint is chipping interior isn’t in top condition yet either but cool builds bro
Really American muscle car fan. Nice to know the admiration for these beautiful machines knows no bounds.
It's nice to know that the love for these classics is as strong elsewhere throughout the world, even in countries where the governments are anti American. I wish there was a way to help you with your goals aquiring parts, but I don't know how receiving packages from the U.S. would go for you. I respect your willingness to take risks in fulfilling your passions. I one day hope to find a video of you burning the rubber off some tires in your classics! Best of luck to you, and God bless you as well.
You really like muscle cars from the 70s
I’m here in 2024
My grandpa owns a 1969 Mach 1 in mint condition signed by Carol Shelby
Logan Rice does he smoke cigs in it
Logan Rice where does he live? 🔫
Joe Cooper nope
THE FLASH haha funny (look at the license plates in their videos)
good for you
That really is about the pinnacle of Mustang badassness. I don't think there was ever a better body design.
The best part. “The wheels are spinning” 😂😂
A very big Thanks to the owner's of the Shop/Yard ... I know these two made a heck of a mess and took way to long ;)
I am amazed that it started and idled!
That place is my favorite popcorn place.....lol. That family has helped me more than my own family when we were homeless and sleeping in my Saturn . ... I Love everyone there " Much love & Respect to COLORADO AUTO SALVAGE"
Imagine if ford gave them the gt350 engine to swap into it.
It will rip that rust bucket in half
Death666wish Probably
Weight reduction bro!
