  • I bought a stolen, recovered, salvage title, auction corvette. It's a 1998 Corvette Convertible. That's seems fine. Nope. Will it run? Probably not. If it does, we'll feed'r the onions!

      All the talent and delivery of an outstanding comedic genius, with down home country appeal.
      And after listening to Derek discuss long-blocking that 454 with a cam change, re-ringing, and the whole 9 (totally worth watching if you've not yet), there's no question he's a top-notch wrench turner too.
      Best channel on TH-cam just because of his obvious family values and being a genuine decent guy.
      Need several million more like him to shine and bring our once-great country back from the brink of destruction we're teetering on...

      "Bots"! Seriously. There are bottom feeder's that develop software that do nothing but give thumbs down on everything. If you see a video that has been up, maybe 10 minutes, watch to see a thumbs down within minutes. Of course, they're not all bots but there is a significant amount that are.
