I wrecked, my 1932 Willey's coup, none the less, on Dead man's curve, on Ute Pass, behind Pikes Peak. Going to work, from Cripple Creek, to Colorado springs. A deer ran out, got stuck in my passenger side wheel, into the river I went. I grew up watching , everyone dragging Nevada Ave, on weekends with every Muscle car, you could race , chase with wheelie bars, and a few chutes. I so appreciate, these Guys, thanks for Sharing, and showing the younger bunch. Rock, Roll & Cage - em !.
I really love the stance of the Gasser. I am 65 years young, in the bottom of my bucket, bucket list has been to own, create, a Gasser. 3 years ago I purchased a really beautiful 1956 Chevrolet (garage find) 210 station wagon with the dream of making a Gasser Wagon. The Wagon is so original looking and I get so many comments and thumbs up driving it to the Doctors Office that now my Dream has been dashed. I have fallen in love with it as is. ( original wide white wall tires and full face BelAir hub caps, three on the tree standard trans ) I will keep my dream and maybe someday find a donor that I can improve making it a Gasser. Before the Sun goes down on my life I would really enjoy meeting the D M C Club members and hang with them.
I watch this video often... takes me to a happy place
Great job from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 love 💓 the great old days of Hot Rods . 🥂🍾
One of the best old car videos I have seen in a while.
Where I'm from, the Gassers on the Street were happening in the late 60's (66- up) I'm from South San Francisco ( South City, home to Gotelli's Speed Shop, Andy and Roy Brizio, Sanderson Headers, and the very first was Champion Speed Shop. Everyone I know was building and driving a Gasser style hot rod. Myself,I had a 56 Chevy 210 straight post 3 door station wagon. 283 ci with dual quads, 30/30 Duntov 3/4 race cam, fender well headers,I didn't have a straight axle but I did have extended spindlesthat Jacked the front end up to the sky! I ran old Crager Magnesium front wheels, and out back were pie crust cheaters on steel wheels painted black and white for that flip flop look, what a Gas! Great time to grow up!!
The best!!
I remember back when many drag racers painted the rear wheels half black and half white!
What a good bunch of guys with some beautiful and a lot of talent.
That was really nice. What a great group of dedicated Jersey fellows! Nice to see their friendship & them enjoying their cars together. So glad you had a chance to visit and share your experience with us.
I don't know how many episodes in I am, but I'm Enjoying the HEAVEN OUTTA myself. Just to see men get together. I'M NOT TRIPPING, but I wish it was more diverse, BUT EVERYTHING CAN'T BE. It's bringin' tears to my eyes with the comradery.
UA-cam knows what I like, great video Dennis
Love that 66 Skylark! My friend had one with a 455 4 spd in it! Ive always wanted one since.
Best of the best. Really neat guys and cars. Hats off.
Awesome, very cool classic hot rods.
Love every second of this video Dennis. You rock!
If I were to grow a moustache; it'd be EXACTLY like Dennis's :-) BTW, is that a MKI Ford Cortina ?
Loved the hour long format!
Great video of a very cool group of gear heads, went to their show at the hotel in Jersey good family atmosphere great collection of cars!
Rich stopped at my shop, he noticed my toys, reroute to the Glen Curtis museum, already had picture of his 55 on shop wall, my 66 dart gasser is coming along nicely
Enroute
Love the 4WD look of the 62 Ford.
You should see my Rod! It is a 1901 Oldsmobile Reproduction and I drove it from California to Missouri round trip and raced it on the Redding, Ca, Drag Strip. I broke all kinds of Records.
I and my family are Lead East loyalists and think that now that he's free of LE responsibilies Terry Cook should run for president in 2024.....
And from a source like me, I enjoyed this video and commend your efforts.
Bit of trivia on the early Novi’s (ref the 1963 at 22 m); the car was a unit body in that it had no frame and the front suspension was just attached to the body at the firewall. This was all Ok until the SB V8 was available as a factory option in 1964, problem was the front of the car was designed using the engine as part of the suspension via the motor mounts which when tied all together made for a “somewhat” sturdy unit.
However when the V8 was offered in 64, the factory had to specify a special block that had additional casting strength at the mounts seats, this to preclude pulling the seats right out of the block.
I converted a 63 Novi wagon to a SB V8 in the mid ‘60s and had to get one of these blocks. The crappy suspension and brakes on these early Novi’s was not safe, I used Malibu brake components all around which helped but front-end alignment was always a problem.
awesome..wish i was there..candy store. thank's Dennis.
Cools stuff. I remember seeing these on the old car magazines Mad. Nice. 🇨🇱👍
So many amazing hot rods!
You gotta put more of these on here!!!! Awesome!!!
So many great cars but I really like that British Ford Cortina! I’ve seen so many road and rally racing Cortinas but never a gasser style drag racing version with a small block V8 in it. Awesome build and a great looking small body and chassis.
Sorry, not a small block! A Rover v8!! That’s even cooler man
Here's more - ua-cam.com/video/X4EoCZiAxdQ/v-deo.html
We've partied at the farm with these guys. Wild rides n fun bunch !
55 Chevy to a lowered Woody it's a wonder he doesn't have decompression sickness love the video and the cars wish I lived back east !!!!
The Manx is actually setup in the early 1970's style with the wide 50 series rear tires, personally I think thats the best look for a Manx dune buggy.
Love 💓 you’re videos mate from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺 🥃 big fan .
So damn awesome!
See that! Some cool stuff happens in N.J. too!!
Theses a lot of very beautiful amazing cars there wow beautiful amazing colours
My name is Willie and I like all your cars I have a 1949 ford club coupe
Best car club in America? Could be!

Hi
Good Video, Great group of guys.
Nice work Sir!!!!! Love from India !!!!
By the way Dennis Thank You!
Hey nice to see, Rich was here in Hammondsport, saw some of my cars n stopped and introduced himself, looking forward to seeing some of you guys at the nationals
The Chuck Norris add is awesome! more please! salt/sugar/flour is a deadly mix for humans. ie the bread/pasta etc mix is death.
Dennis and Classic is the best!
What do you mean by "salt/sugar/flour is a deadly mix" ?
I just discovered your page mate . Thanks that is wonderful . 🍷
I want a two door post with a cheer bomb single in two out the back
Sweet rides.
Deadmans Curve video was Great. I Live at Deadman,s Curve, Cornwall, Ontario Canada. Look at my 66 Tiger. I would love to be a member of your club.
I was waiting to see a Mopar in that Corvette with the staggered ram intake! Oh well, to each his own.
That red cortina was giving me a chubby 😳 damn what a fantastic car I love it 🤘👍
Oh cool I would love to see a longer hr format like this all the time (as long as its not just 4-5 more Dustless Blasting Videos.. kidding, haha)
Get Add block for youtube, it blocked 77 add's on this video.
You missed the joke - If you watch this on TV you know what I mean. The show is a half hr and has about 20mins of content and then tons of Dustless Blasting Ads in between. I'm not talking about YT - I'm talking about the actual show when it airs on TV.
Love this channel. I hope to meet Dennis this summer in Gilroy CA
Well, did you get a chance to meet Dennis? I met him years ago at the Iola car show/swap meet in Wisconsin
@@mericavids Unfortunately I did not but maybe some day. So far I’ve met Chip Foose, Dave Kindig and his side kick “Kev dog”, and Gene Winfield. All four autographed my sun visors in my 1934 Ford Vicky.
@@georges4562 that's cool
Cool club
so Danny C. subscribes to my credo..."Its never too late to have a happy childhood"...19:08...
Dennis's comment about the "Corvette guys loving that gasser Vette".......I DO! Very cool! We're not all purists lol. If I had the money to have multiple Vettes, I think I'd build a C1 gasser too.
.loved that 31 four banger
nice job done right in NJ
AWESOME
L-88 much nicer than teardrop.......woodies so hard to do. Good Job! Really great car club with lots of variety. Little Falcons SOOO underrated. I suppose I'll get browbeaten for this but only a few cars actually look good as gassers - ya can't do it to everything and expect it to be a jewel. Take a '57 T-Bird and drop a straight axle under it? That's like taking the best-looking girl and turning her into a street-walker, for Pete's sake!
thats cool
So refreshing to see someone else that knows what a Street Freak is. Or was. I'm building a 49 Chevy coupe in that style right now. To build a Gasser, you have to follow rules and be "period correct". It almost bothers me to hear people call those cars gassers. If you guys like the surfer twang and reverb, check out Los Straightjackets music, they rock like your cars do.
The 215" Nailhead V8 is not the SP 250 engine. The SP 250 was powered by a Daimler 2.5 liter hemi-head V8.
4:40 As the "Tradewinds" would say "New York's a Lonely Town (When You're the Only Surfer Boy Around) " My woodie's outside, covered with snow...
Why the Fuc would you leave a woody outside under the fucing snow???!!!
I didn't pay attention in high school.Because I had a 69 fastback nova.And a 72 nova.They were my first cars.Plural.That means two.Count em'
Why I didn't go to my prom story. lol
Gassers are the best! :) No doubt...
Where can we see more of the Gasser '61 wagon or Green Bubble top Plymouth?
Totally don't get why he didn't feature that one.
ON TV!
COOL
I'll bet they all handle like a ship in a storm !.
Pretty much.
to each his own,totatly insane.
Willys is correctly pronounced Will-iss. Not Willies.
Gasser's Rule, olde school...........
MCC guys....would you consider...........doubling the amount of posts you put up by posting here what ends of on the "cutting room floor" on top of the regular weekly Dennis Gage MCC posts. I think it would be wildly popular. What do you think?
Dennis--I would gladly PAY$$$ for more content like this! Do it man! Sign me up. Where do I send the dough? Bet I'm not the only one.
The Manx is still a available through the original company in SoCal
I have never seen so many beautiful old cars, that have been totally ruined by their owners.
You do realize many of these cars have been modified three or four decades ago?
rushforth quit using your mouth to break wind!!!
Didn’t show the 41 willys
I have a steering wheel column and steering box like that. Banjo wheel
I always thought Dead Mans Curve was on Sunset Blvd. in So.California
I always thought it was the name of a turn on eastbound I-70, west of Denver. I guess a lot of places and groups are named Dead Man's Curve.
@@specialopsdave johnny mack brown -- I believe most places in this Country have one, or call a curve that. I had an Engineer explain to me that curves in most roads have an even radius but when a curve starts out at one radius and changes part way around, it confuses the driver who doesn’t expect it. After he told me that the next time I was on it I saw that it did, about half way around it the turn got tighter. That, ‘’Dead Man’s Curve’’ was near the Eastern most part of MA near a Graveyard that may well have been 200 years old. Explains the reason for the odd curve, if you follow? Cheers!!! Love this video...
MisterAMuck
That curve you mention, wouldn't be in Sandwich, MA on Cape Cod would it ?
@@keithlane4343 No but you're getting warmer. Approximately 26 miles S and 6 miles W of there. The town of West Tisbury to be exact. Stunningly beautiful area. What gave it away, the 200 year old Graveyard? There are many in this part of the Country actually, as you know. Take Care...
Hi MisterAMuck
Oh, ok, you're talking about one on the Vineyard.
The one I had in mind is on the big curve before entering Heritage Plantation Automobile Museum and Gardens.
It's a tough curve with frost heaves and patches.
Two kids I went to High School with in the 1970's died on that curve, and it has a very old cemetery on the inside of the curve.
Both motorcycle accidents. One was the brother of my friend I graduated with in 1979, the other happened a few years before to a guy that was in my sister's class.
There have been quite a few accidents on that curve before and since then.
It used to be dangerous to ride motorcycles, now it's dangerous just to go to the grocery store.
Take care. Drive safe
How does a four banger sound do you have a cherry bomb single in total out back I bet it sounds rad dood I live in jacksonville florida zip is 32205 I would like two build one with 64 falcon with the 13 inch wheels and a single in dibble out the back god two all of you all
Cobra
Bee
No finer ride than a gasser want one
once a lowrider always a lowrider for life our lifestyle worldwide
Absolutely impossible to drive in Australia or NZ
If anyone is reading this, can you please respond or make a comment with a timestamp of each car showed please?
Go straight to 37:22 for shits and giggles
and then 58:48
Ok...what does the word "Gasser" mean. Thanx.
It was a modified class of race cars that ran on gasoline ...Back in the day as they say...
ok thanx.
@@vernonslone8627 And Altereds had their engines set back farther. Gassers could be any car with any engine.
@@davidvoinier6008 Gassers were allowed 10% setback altereds were allowed 25% setback...
I like the old ,as is Rats, not the pretty cars so much
the thing I hate the most is when people take a ford and put freakin chevy running gear in .IF YOU BUILD A CAR YOU KEEP A FORD A FORD AND A CHEVY A CHEVY DO NOT MIX THE TWO.
To each their own. It’s all good.
He said 26-27 model A well ModelAs were made from 1928- 1931.
Hey Jim
I'm pretty sure he said "on a Model A frame" I was thinking the same thing at first.
Cheers
Gasser isn't my favorite genre of car. Finding nice survivor cars and doing this to them? Oh! The humanity! The humanity!
Wow 69
corvette motor 1975 low hp. so why would want buy 10 ,my 327 motor from 1967 would have smoked that 350 fact ,
wheres your 327? lets see it in action !!
wray the only thing smoked is your brain. fucking fact!
I've repeatedly hear the term "Gasser". So WHAT "MAKES" a car a "Gasser"?
Style from the 50s to 60s motor runs on gas not race fuel.

Let's see, $10 x 2,000 views = $20K..... just saying.
$10 a view. I dont think so
Bryan Keith If you got 10 bucks a view I’d make UA-cam videos and watch my own videos all day, I’d be rich.
Woody ha ha
If I drove a gasser, I'd need a gorilla mask so nobody recognized me. Can always drop one of those nice bodies on a Roadster Shop, Fat Man or Art Morrison chassis.
WHY? they want a gasser. drop your body on one of them there chassis. in the mean time do everyone a favor and STUT THE FUCK UP !
SHUT THE FUCK UP !!!
Loved the hour long format!
