- Picking up where part 2 left off trying to bandaid a broken engine. We take off on our trip to tuscon to enter the battle of the beaters challenge at Duct Tape Drags in tuscon. We just hope the car will pass tech and survive the strip
It was really great to finally meet up and have a few beers! We'll get together for that grudge match at some point, the original 400 for Holey Goat is 4 weeks from being out of machine shop hell.
Was good to see both cars there . Love the work both of you guys do
Junkerup and PoleBarn, you guys have the coolest cars!
Just realized, nice shirt at the end!
You & pole barn garage are my favorites I love seeing overlooked classics get a second chance, this charger and pole barns bullet hole GTO are some of my favorite recent “builds”
I have to say that I admire you for being willing to spend the time and money on junk only to make it junk again.
But, Chris has Fun with his junk! That's the whole point! 😋
Nice job with that 71.
Just throwing it out there.... you said that nobody's gonna want to restore that car.
I think it would be cool if you and Mark Worman got together and rebuilt it out of used metal and made it a drivable and restorable car.
An epic adventure for both you, and Graveyard Cars......
Lots of viewers would love it.
Fools gold is slowly becoming a classic,can’t wait for its next adventure,when it should be scrap you’ve managed to put more chapters in it’s history and it looks mean to boot👍
The trick with the tires is exactly what jumped on my mind within 2 seconds. You did exactly what I would have done. Now the tires will surely hold up till the speed of 180 miles per hour.
Thanks but no thanks, I laughed so loud it woke my grandson up from his nap and now have to contend with him !
I totally agree with your closing comments ! Love the channel and this episode series is the kind of hot rodding that makes hot rodding fun.
Thanks Chris, I love the light-hearted aspect of everything you do. It's always a learning and fun watch. Derek just cracks me up. Road Kill guys always represent. Now to more Mopar restorations.
Now that's how to Junkerup! Race that junk.
👍Cool video Chris and I agree there’s cars to restore and cars to enjoy 👍Great philosophy
Thanks 👍
That was awesome Chris and Derek! Fools Gold needs a face. Some sort of custom grille with four eyes from your spare parts.
It needs like a cow catcher.. Mad Max type grill! 💪🤣🤳
That car gave it its all. And still runs. Bravo Chris.
cool points for hauling it with a General Lee lmao...
This might be one of the best youtube series. Looking forward to see it again.
Thankx for the video of this great adventure !!! Keep on rockin' in a free world !!! 🤘
Even your dog watching in the backgr9ounf couldn't believe that much water came out
That tech guy hated pole barn. You had the net and door bars so you more looked like you knew what you were doing. The rock block is classic! Laughed my a** off man. Nice job!
That thing sounds so nasty. What a fun project.
Should have named it golden shower, for all the oil it poured on the track!😂 Love the car Chris!
This car is Nuts! Keep going Chris, well done!
You started the burn out while the guy in front of you was still on the starting line. As an old man that happened to me at OCIR (you will know I am old when you look up the racetrack acronym for OCIR) in my 1970 Buick GS 455. The guy on the starting line light went green and he launched. I laid on the throttle of my torque monster Buick 455. The guy on the starting line in front of me hit the brakes, and put it in reverse to back up and try again, which is huge NO NO! I had to do a sudden move to the right, in order to not slam into the rear of the guy. starting line guy Larry Sutton and Charlie Allen where pissed at both of us, even though I could not see how any of it was my fault.
This is the funnest drag racing video I have ever seen bar none! Awesome job making it happen and you definitely need to bring her back for more fun episodes.
Thanks
Definitely bring her back!
Great episode! Where there is a will, there is a way! Cheers
I don't get it. They let you run this bucket of bolts down the dragstrip, but they failed Pole Barn Garage's Goat...
It was just rules, his had a few that were missing
It's a matter of reading, and meeting the nhra checklist, hell, my local strip won't let me run my stock lowered s10.(studs don't stick through the lug nuts enough, even though several threads are sticking through)
And that strip is known for being super strict about tech.
Yeah I was wondering the same. They knocked back Chris from NNKH as well because of a missing sunroof.
I believe the owner of the strip let Dalton and Chris have a race the day after the event.
So awesome to see all my favourite channels all merge in one place. Very cool.
There’s a LOT more then “rules” going on, that old guy was there to rain on as many parades as he could because “this wouldn’t even happen if it was up to me” these same types infested my area to where not only did they get ALL our tracks shut down except one one that’s impossible to race on unless they like you but we all gave up going to tracks long ago, even better a couple are cops with raging wood to find & shut us down, haven’t run a car in a decade over this bs
@@roadrunnervsgodzilla2048what cracks me up is having no sunroof Fails But he had no doors and passes,Go figure?🧐
That was one of the most fun things I've watched lately. Love the car and the races! Cheers!
Great video as always, you don't disappoint. Looking forward to next year with Fool's Gold.
Hey Chris thank you for the video but she sure did run good while she was alive 👍
You are crazy chris. But I have to say it sure does look like fun. Awesome 71 foolsgold. I love it dude.
Too bad they didn't let the holey goat run. I want to see you and Dalton run.😁
The most fun You Tube is junkerup.
I laughed so hard we he brought out the grinder for the tire.
The most fun on UA-cam is junkerup
That event was a blast… really cool to see my photos at 53:46 👍
Great pics
Chris is 100% the best channel on UA-cam!!!
This was a blast! CHRIS: Heres my idea for a Junkerup T-shirt. Picture the back half of a tow truck, big hook holding up a grimacing Charger and the back wheels are spinning flames! It would sell BIG!
Great video- that's another thing you're good at. More of the same, please. The throttle response from that beater engine is impressive.
"That's NOT Good" is exactly what was going through my head just before you said it, lol
K-Seal, blue flat lookn bottle like a mini gallon coolant bottle with redish orange label..Amazing stuff is all I can say..I never liked any kind of cooling system sealants until I got introduced to that stuff. It's 20 bucks or more for a bottle but it's amazing how quick it works...
Birdsong, I've never seen someone destroy a driveshaft on a Ford Cougar or anything else quite like you did twice to the same car. I just wanted to let you know how much fun I had watching those episodes.
cougar.. driveshaft.. hmm..🤔
This with like a street stock cage, Blower, Charger grill and mad max zoomies 🤩
Final words so true. Looks comes last. First lots of HP engine, trans, chassie. And,,,,,,, Have FUN. Yes, I have to become a bydy guy now, it`s gonna take time.
Hey man,i recently found your Channel through pole barn garage and i love It already.I just would like to Tell you to at least yank the driver side quartel panel back(not repair It) just make It kinda straight If It can be done,I love your vídeos and If can't be done it's fine
Chris that is the most craziest car I’ve seen down a drag strip. Lots of fun. Nice to see you enjoying yourself. Not like the top fuel cars were everything is so expensive and serious. Great channel. 👍
I think this car is here to stay all of your subscribers love it!
Hello,one of the top5 UA-camrs. Always a interesting video. TY. Lmao with the front tires.
Those looked like new space saver 50 mph spare tires.. 😂 right? 😂
Hey, thanks!
The RT is total Madd Maxx rig !! 👍👌🤗❤️
Little did " LEONARD " know, LMAO.
CLASSIC ! great fun
Great job Chris!
Chris you did an awesome job it was fun watching the video Bud Keep On Keepin On
Thanks
i'd straighten out the rear quarter (to somewhat resemble the other side), slap some doors and a front end, and it'll be a cool looking beater Charger
I love the look on Derrick's face when Chris is pouring the mortar mix into the block, I am sure he was thinking you aren't really going to do that are you ?
Awesome video 👍👍🇺🇸
Great work saving this charger and bringing it back to life as a fun machine! That engine did sound sweet! It was on the brink of destruction though. LOL Keep up the great work!
Thanks
You gotta love Dulcich for his wisdom😂
awesome..i really enjoyed this video....thanks Chris
I'm getting some mad max vibes from this car.
Awsome Chris keep it coming
Taking a beat up car and build it for drag racing priceless towing it there with your general lee gold
dang it gave you basically everything that 361 had, and you had a blast which does remind me I Really really should replace the plastic oil press gauge on my car soonish too fun to watch these vids and glad it's getting a proper 383 for next time
6:13 NEVER!!!!! In my life would I have thought I would ever see something like this done lol putting floor grout in your engine lol. I mean if it works it's a great idea right? Shit is crazy. What's funny is this is the first real video I seen of this guy, lol welcome sir I'm gonna put grout in my engine
If you think about it, there's that Mark guy restoring rare million dollar cars that nobody can afford, and you showing us it can be done. With junk and on a small budget.
It's a win either way you consider it.
I would love to see a you tuber compition with cars like yours,pole barns gto,maybe vice grip garage could resurrect the independence chevelle,scotts speed shop has to have something he could throw together,dillon McCool has a charger that a tree fell on that he got running.
Can’t wait for the next time it hits duct tape drags!!!
You won the entire event in my eyes.
A great watch/ adventure from start to finish.
Freaking hysterical!!!
You know how to build em bro...
Mr Chris you should take that junk block and turn it into a coffee table somebody out there will buy it.
The old girl deserves a rear quarter and a patina resto!
That would take away it’s best feature
You are crazy,but funny 😂😂
Love watching u race, looks like so much fun fantastic job.
steve was just kidding about the grout, he wanted to see if you would actually do it
😂😂😂😂
Great video and sweet build Chris! I’m on a mission to get some revenge for the bus length you pulled on my Dart lol. Next time 🤘🏻
Deal!
I had a set of 383 heads ported once an they had taken out just a little to much in one of the ports for the exhaust an it ran fine till I tightened the radiator cap an it popped a pin hole threw the casting into the exhaust port so it cleaned it out an jb welded the surface of the port an slicked it down an fixed it it lasted for ever it was still running like that the last time I saw it but it ran great but it had like 11.5 to one compression so you had to run some good race fuel in it it was build pretty good dome pistons had the heads an block shaved the top of the pistons stuck out of the block an shims for head gaskets it was a 68 Plymouth sport fury no hesitation what so ever 900 cfm holly with a eddle Brock 6 inch tunnel ram you could duels quads on it with a plate I had but I just ran a single holly loved it factory Dana with high way gears .
Can’t wait to see what you have planned for this car!!!
I have an idea for this turd bucket. Wasteland Weekend.
Add spikes, bumper bars front, back, and sides, supercharger, offroad grooved hoosiers, body sanded down to metal and polished to chrome, ditch the trunk and add a platfrom the stand on.
A Mad Max build for a Mad Max themed festival.
If you want to bite look into the wasteland weekend first cause they do have some serious reqs.
Not my thing
Seems like everyone is is allowed to bring there stuff to SEMA these days. How about “ Daisy “ next year ??👍👌🤗❤️
U should have gone to a U-Pull it and get crown vic spare's tire they are aluminum 5x4.5 and skinny's and not much $.You could also get a complete positive battery cable from a Cobalt or G5 and use it to put battery in Trunk as they are, and do that cheap also u pull it. Chris, I didn't realize u were as tall as Dulcich. I thought u were 5'8 5'10 couldn't tell without comparison LOL
I learned years ago not to use that plastic line . COPPER
Yeah, I just watched a Mortske first start in 50 yrs vid. He had picked up a 36 Ford P.U. old hot rod with a GM 283 V8. Said he hated plastic oil pressure lines too & changed it to copper. 👍
blew the the plastic line on my 68 Buick Skylark . learned my lesson @@BillyJoeJimBob28
Might've been easier to write a "1" in front of the 50 mph printed on the sidewall. Just thinking outside the (burnout) box
Really hurts watching you pour this in the engine! 😢. Hope it works😊
Shaddup Derek!
It beginning to look like racecar oh hell ya. LOL
Way to go, absolutely love it
That car did absolutely amazing considering what a pile of crap it is 😂 first time watching one of your videos and I'm going to subscribe. Very cool dude ✌️🇺🇲
Thanks man
That thing is so hard to look at My God
🦅🇺🇸💪😎👍🍻 great times with good people
Now the rod and crank bearings are all washed up,was that detergent oil.😮should be nice and clean no sludge😊
Wow that was fun.
Next time youngotna cracked water jacket go to the pharmacy and buy a quart of water glass.... old farmers trick itll seal up cracks like that
Dont try to church it up son!
I blew up one plastic OP tube. After that EVERY OP line has been copper with a coil at each end.....
Loved it!!
put a right side door and finder on it and polish the side like new LOL
Hell, Cleetus broke into the 7’s dry.

No water in the cooling system.
