What an awesome car. That Yates engine was almost six figures when new .. Keeping these old cars legacy going on, making more great memories. Great Job brother.
@@micah3697 I have a 70 351c-4v that sat for 15 yrs plus, got it running/idling 5 days ago. Last nigram's! on the dyno, It hit 8k an begged for more rpm's!
Knowing that was the memorial race for your friend, that was a little emotional knowing all those burnouts where to honor him. He was definitely enjoying the show you put on for him.
I have one ! It’s a fusion , d3 Yates engine. Got it from James Hylton. It’s an x Elliot wood brothers car. Have not had time to try and crank it but the log book says it has less than 20 min run time. Now you have motivated me! Thank you
That Yates motor sounds badass, cool keeping the memories of Spencer alive, that`s a whole lot of fun for around 5k. I don`t know how much that motor was raced, but I am anxious to see how long it holds up to your beatings, Yates were the cats ass back in the day.
You got yourself a gem , I am sorry to hear about your friend of the family and I will say a prayer and may God bless you all and I will wish you the best with you and your project. I hope that everything goes well with you and your family and I will be looking forward with excitement to see what kinda adventures your gonna come up with on your new acquisition of your Nascar car! Good morning and great Tuesday to you.
Great tribute to your friend Chris!!! That thing is a beast!! And Yates power under the hood!!! Would love to have the engine in my ole fastback mustang!!!!!👍👍👍
I’ve been into dirt racing, and working on race cars since 2014, but in 2019 I bought a limited modified. To make things short, I’ve learned more in 3 years than I did in 5 years. Some of the most important things that I have learned is to keep in mind of the little things, because not one thing will win a race, a bunch of small advantages over the next guy will make a huge difference. I argue with people all the time whenever I tell them that races are won in a shop, but those same people I argue with has either never drove a car, or if they do race, they run in the back due to the car not being competitive enough.
that starter sounds sooooooooo good, what a damn sickly cool car dude, i love it. big respect for showing respect to the original driver like that too. and well RIP the inboard mic lol
I strongly recommend buying new lexan, there will optical imperfections from the polishing and it will drive you mad and make your head hurt like wearing someone else glasses. Looking forward to see that intake restrictor tossed in the bin, this thing with a tune will be insane!
Rad car, looks like a great time, maybe a hard rev limiter would help prevent your steel foot from over revving that old girl. Also, its got a bit of an uneven gallop upon starting, maybe do a compression test now that shes been running awhile, could be valve seat issues causing a bit of compression loss on one or two holes. ^_^
Spin the motor over with the ignition off until the oil pressure comes up, then turn the ignition on! Just a lil tip I've learned over the year's...from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 🤠
Dude you need to take that to the freedom factory and get cleetus to make a private class around those old school chassis, bet he could make it happen he ownes the race track!!!!!+
I would love to own a old Nascar. I live in Germany, and I am not rich, so they are far out of my reach. 😢 But at least I own a 1972 Ford LTD 4-door sedan. It is not a racing car but a awesome cruiser. I try to make it the last car I ever bought. It is 10 years older than me and I hope it will survive me. 😀 But still, a real Nascar would be awesome. That sound and shape. Build only to be raced. Killer.
have you considered going to cleetus and cars burnout competition i think a person like yourself will do well in this up and coming sport in america you might even give some of us aussies a run for our money in burnouts hope you can make this happen
Your neighbors are either real troopers or they`re troopers that some night, are gonna have you in their sights with a 4x scope. You look like you`re having a lotta fun though.
i honor u chris thank your for doing this it makes me cry and feel great again huggs bro be safe and see yah on here next weekend bro huggs. p.s. love the channel keep the vids coming chris huggs bro
That's one bad motor in that car. Bullet proof, built right, and will turn 9 grand all day without even breakin a sweat. I don't know what you paid for the car. But that Yates motor is one awesome piece.
Boomer here. I'll be Debbie Downer here and say I hate seeing this gem of history will get wasted. There are guys restoring old Cup cars that would LOVE to have this car either to restore or use as a parts car.
@@junkerup That engine has value to someone restoring a car. He could stuff a boneyard LS in that car to do burnouts. But I've never seen much value in burnouts either. As I said...I'm 64. Different set of values. Doesn't make anyone right or wrong, just different perspectives.
@@gailtaylor1636 if u saw the whole video you would see that’s just 1 part of what’s going on with the car. It went drag racing after that and set to go roadracing next
What an awesome car. That Yates engine was almost six figures when new .. Keeping these old cars legacy going on, making more great memories.
Great Job brother.
I was thinking the same thing. I'd be looking after it as it would be huge money to fix if/when something let's go.
Good on you Chris for Honoring your lost friend! I'm sure Spencer was riding shotgun cheering you on!
Wut 🤦♂️
AWESOME Freakin Job Chris for keeping OLD MEMORIES ALIVE!!! I can see it now, He’s looking down on you just Shaking His Head… #Spencer , #23
That RPM sustained like that is incredible.
car sat for 14 years then hit 10k rpm with an afternoon of work, ford small blocks r insane

Totally make a video on it please!
@@MrFreakman2000 I have one of my steeda race car that I rebuilt
That big rolling burnout...!
I felt like it was me in Gran Turismo when i get bored!! 🤣

Love the shot of the dog pissing on the trailer tire in the background at a little past 43 min. 🤣

That’s one bad ass sounding small block 👀💯💪👍
Excellent Burnout Tribute to your late buddy Spencer, just what he would have done ❤ ✌
Your smile is a mile wide, glad you are having fun as I eat my heart out !
This was absolutely awesome to watch! Amazed at how much abuse that car took and it still rips!!
Great tribute to your friend Chris!!! That thing is a beast!! And Yates power under the hood!!! Would love to have the engine in my ole fastback mustang!!!!!👍👍👍
750 hp of FORD small block goodness. Your friend had taste for the good things in life
A GOOD AND LOYAL FRIEND TO THE END!! 🏁 ✌️
Awesome tribute to your pal! Respect!
"Nascar Daytona." That's all I needed to hear to get a great big smile on my face, Chris.

Runs for 45 seconds after years of sitting. Straight to 9 grand lol. Peg from zip ties would approve. Hellyeah!!!!
I was like wow
Kid brain.... Luv it. Fun guy
that starter sounds sooooooooo good, what a damn sickly cool car dude, i love it. big respect for showing respect to the original driver like that too.
and well RIP the inboard mic lol
your neighbours must love you! Dont get many of those in the UK. Not jealous at all. Honest. Damn.

26:59 I lost it one of the best moments in your channel’s history that was perfect hahahahaha 😂👍
Most Gooder !😀
He paid for the whole tach and dammit, he's gonna use it!
Freaking awesome Mr. Chris!! 😎👍
Man you got the most awesome life man living every real car guys dream 100 keep it up
Your intro is one that I never skip
Remember if you bought the master cylinder years back you saved 20% or so due to inflation
Probably one of the best videos to date ❤
Brings back excitement from days along time ago when I bought a 68 Gts 383 4speed factory dart that was ran on the drag strip..have fun Chris
Dang I miss Arizona. Beauty that can't be matched.
Oh wow, I remember the story of his accident, so sad but glad to see you keeping one of his dreams alive.
Hey Chris thank you for the video and good luck with the racing car
I’m sure the neighbors are super excited to have you around !!! LOL but the car is badass no doubt about it !!!!
He'll yea when that pressure picked up that bad Boy was buzzing lol 👍
Daisy just still sets there waiting. When I started watching your channel you worked on her often.
Better than any show on TV.....
That damn zip tie by the oil tank makes me virtually get cut. Awesome video.
Great project best wishes! Your neighbours must love you! 🤪
I love that the dog chooses to water the trailer tire while you record your clip…is he a Ford hater too?
Street legal stock cars are my favorite! 🤙 I just put over 2400 street miles on mine 🏎💨
Chris your am Animal! Lol
Keep ripping buddy!
`Gee Chris it sure is a good thing that you have a garage. Especially when you've got a special project and it's raining LOL.
Chevelle is looking good, love the Motion valve covers. Can’t wait to ride in it and enjoy that AC.
Thats ont tough motor! Robert Yates is one of the Best on Small block Fords. That is a 351Windsor based engine
Ok you are very good at your restorations BUT you are epic as a race car driver. It’s your destiny as your father’s was too
What a tribute to your friend, lap of smoke. Good man.
you got a new subscriber from this video, may Al Gore's Rhythm and Blues band bless you

21:09 you funny dude😂😂😂 i felt that
have you considered going to cleetus and cars burnout competition i think a person like yourself will do well in this up and coming sport in america you might even give some of us aussies a run for our money in burnouts hope you can make this happen
If your neighbors aren't car people I bet they just LOVE you lol. I can't blame you though, I would have had to rev it out too!
That sound of a powerhouse small block hitting the rev limiter just music to my ears wow.
It at least needs a pistol grip shifter!!!
this is really wild, that 1970 Charger 500 looks just like my old one,, only one's I've seen with black vineyl top and luggage rack
Jesus Christ that sounds fucking beautiful 😮😮
I can’t wait to see it go down the track!
Dude I would totally street legal that thing and cruise it everywhere trust ;)
I bet his neighbors are thrilled 😆 😄
The car guy math though.
"I already had it so it saves money.....wait... No. Sorta?"
Such is the life of car guys/gals!
You werent washing that car in California were ya? Rolling black blues! Man that’s an awesome engine good clean funny!
HAHAHAHA. Part of me gleefully awaits sn interview with any of your neighbors. lol *** For Sale signs line a 3 block radius 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Suddenly Chargers seem quiet 😂
The stickers had me weak😂😂
Vintage racing series has no expiration date!
yo im not even American but that last part of the video dam hit me in the feels
Bro your channel is underrated asf ÿour really good. Your funny but smart on these cars.
Good grief man that is freaking cool man what I would give to have some fun like that glad you're having a blast brother
Favorite video so far. Killer burnout too.
Your neighbors gotta hate the hell out of you... Lol that motor is bad ass and I'm not a Ford Guy, but I'm all about horse power... That's awesome man
Your neighbors are either real troopers or they`re troopers that some night, are gonna have you in their sights with a 4x scope. You look like you`re having a lotta fun though.
We carry around here. But we still avoid car washes after dark ))
Can you imagine the people in this neighborhood when they see him pulling a nascar in lmao
Hell yeah! Sounds badass!
i honor u chris thank your for doing this it makes me cry and feel great again huggs bro be safe and see yah on here next weekend bro huggs. p.s. love the channel keep the vids coming chris huggs bro
I'd say new valves as well would be a good idea.
That's one bad motor in that car. Bullet proof, built right, and will turn 9 grand all day without even breakin a sweat. I don't know what you paid for the car. But that Yates motor is one awesome piece.
Good job u make me laugh with the hubcaps
super late model chassis with that motor would be nice on a smaller track.... just saying.. would love to see more dirt content
That's so bad a** awesome. Hope it's all there. I would get Nascar drivers to sign the inside
I bet your neighbors just adore you. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's effin insane! Sounds sooo effin good!
@ 26.50, let the smiles begin.
Nice, real nice.
You made some badass tips this weekend at Tucson! If it had a power glide you’d run 10’s!
Amazing video, thanks for sharing
Dude LOVE this bad bitch… but your chargers are killing me … subbed bro
Noway ,,,that would be perfect in the driveway
I am a Dodge man through and through but I am happy it's not a Chevy engine under that hood
I am no ford man but that thing is so responsive , hurry and get the Daytona body on it
Ok then location of said valve lash cap....is a potential hazard..
Boomer here. I'll be Debbie Downer here and say I hate seeing this gem of history will get wasted. There are guys restoring old Cup cars that would LOVE to have this car either to restore or use as a parts car.
U speak of wasted but then say parts car? Lol…if someone is enjoying it it’s hardly being wasted.

That engines is going to give that tack needle whiplash😳😳
Bald eagles screaming out of the exhaust!
Gotta love the Nascar boom tube exhaust system
your neighbors must love you haha
oh hey! i happen to hate ford tauruses as well. lol!
