@@beezlebub3955it probably got edited out just like the rest of the normal process. Going from the front seat straight to the power barn without looking in the trunk for engine parts first just isn't right.
hey motor trend. Derek is the best guy you got out of all of your channels. We all want to see more of him! Why did you edit this down so hard? We want to see Derek, Jessica, Bradley, Bentley, and Bailey. Right now! Heck! I think vice grip garage is better than your whole net work :-) Edit: oops, I forgot Motor!!! the shop lion! Sorry Motor ! :-)
When I was growing up, my Dad flew from our home in Upper Michigan down to Texas on a business trip. Instead of flying home, he drove... in a '51 Chevy "hardtop convertible" (which wasn't really a convertible, but had the LOOKS of a convertible) just like the one you have here. He was amazed when he got it home. "That car didn't burn a single drop of oil!" I have really fond memories of being in that car with my Dad. "Son, are you prepared to engage FULL CRUISE MODE?!" "YEAH!" On the command "Engage!" we would furiously roll the windows down, and then make a big show of leaning back in the seats as we slowly rolled down the streets of town. I miss that car. And I miss my Dad.
I know how you feeling...for me it was a 1984 Chevrolet Caprice Classic...and my Dad...i miss him ...Life is good... but it was better when your dad had your back :)...
“I gave up once” hit me directly in the funny bone!😂😂😂Thank you for consistently bringing us such entertaining content. I enjoy your content immensely. Well done!
I love the Long Form Vice Grip Garage content. Not this 20 min type stuff. We know it edits out all the little details that are important and motivational.
Derek , my first car was a 51 Chevy . My dad and I put new floors in the front. With Old metal truck signs he had gotten from where he was working.i drove it to school.bought it from my uncle for $25.00. I love that old car. that was around 1961 or two. Love your videos and rescues.
Same..great looking car, nice lines not toobig or small. Real USA steel in these..imagine being a body guy back then and having to hammer and dolly that thick stuff, yikes!
Derek is the best thing on TH-cam. I think it's easy to see that the GM under floor location for the master cylinder was less than convenient. Even in California were I'm from rust made removal a challenge. The fact that you did not have a hanging break pedal was not worth the complications associated with the geometry.
You have to remember that floor mounted brake pedals are a throwback to the days of mechanical brakes and LONG linkage rods along the frame. When they converted to "juice brakes" they left everything else alone.
Wanted to let Derek know that my first car was a 1950 Chevrolet DeLuxe 4-door sedan. There was more chrome on the inside than the outside. Even had a tube-type radio...it had to warm up before you could hear anything. They are great cars.
This was a fun video to watch. I get so jealous of the amount of "barn finds" for these types of old cars you have in the USA. Keep it up. Real pleasure to watch.
In Australia where I live it sucks cars are worth like 10-15k AUSD or more. And any good cars are 20k plus dirty rigs that’s aren’t very popular are less
I know what I'm watching when I get home. The complete episode! Derek, as always you did your thing. Both my kids think we are related. I don't over think repairs, just get them done!
Nothing beats VGG. Watching this, makes me appreciate the real thing. No offense Derek, buut stick with your channel. Much better. But loved the revival nonetheless.
My grandfather taught me to drive three on a column in the 51 Belair. Drove it when I got my license prior to army draft. Brings back memories. Learned a lot about engines.
I have been watching you since you had like 100 subscribers. This is a special one. 44 years. All new brake system. You must have had a lot of time in that one.
Derek You never cease to amaze me, I enjoy watching all of your videos Thank you sir for your dedication May Gods Blessings and grace shine upon you and your family always
Great job! I like to see old cars brought back to operation. I hope you can restore this 1951 to "like new" condition. My Dad had a 1952 Chevy from 1952-62. A nice car. Keep up the good work!
I wanted a Corvette so my dad in '61, bought me my very first car, just like this one. He paid $47 and I named it the "Rat" cause it wasn't a Corvette. Had a blast learning about cars and even took the engine out to hone the cylinders, valve job and re-shim the bearings. Did it need it no, but I did it. Found a '55 Chevy Bel Air convertible rolling chassis and sold the Rat to one of my friends. That was a looooong time ago.
I got one of these in the early 70's as a kid. It had sat since the early 60's. It was suprizingly easy to get going. Even converting to 12 volts was easy. It was a very dependable nice riding car. The built them like tanks back then.
Yep, T-bone is watching. Derek, awesome as always. Quick fast and as I always say on Raley's Small Engines (on TH-cam) Too Easy. Keep up the great work Vice Grip Garage.
Love this episode. I had a 52 version that wanted to finish building for my dad before he passed and take a road trip to Route 66 with my two kids but unfortunately I had to sell it before that happened.
My grandpa bought a 51chevy brand new for the kids.He parked it in 65. When i was 11 in 78 i messed around with it got it running agian. Drove it out in the back 40 and back up to the barn. It didnt quite run right but at the time i wasent aware it was probably just bad gas😮
My dad had one of those, I ruin the motor mounts then he went to a 56 Dodge I a got him to order the Sur-grip read end . We had snow and a big hill to go up that was not paved. It worked great. only had to shovel one side. Thanks for this one.
Nice... One of his safest finds yet, Throttle stuck open, No brakes, Rust holes in all the right spots, Good luck Derrick, Please sign here, life insurance
My Dad had a 52 Deluxe 4 door back in the early 1970s. He had all the rust removed and replaced with steel panels done the traditional way. He had it finished in gunmetal grey. I was lucky enough to learn to drive in it. I think it had a Blue flame 6 cylinder with three on the tree.
That was almost as easy as an Australian finding cheap freight prices from America! My 1950 Styleline brakes were pretty easy too. And by that I mean I replaced them after they didn't stop the 350 V8 I put in while idling at stop lights. Even the new brakes aren't great.... perfect! Really awesome to see you have fun just like I did with my Chevrolet!
I had a 52 I sold back in 2013 and I just bought a 50 fleet line I'm about to start building now really enjoyed watching this as I'm about to go thru most of the same headaches but going v8 route
I always loved this year for Chevrolet. They make a real cool rod. Cut the springs, flat black with some baby blue scallops. That would look perfect. And don't forget the mexican blanket for a seat cover.
Mine was a 52 Club C Coupe. Primmered black. No engine or trans. I found a 57 Imperial it was side swiped. Front drives fender all the way back to the rear wheel well. I installed the Gen 1 392 hemi trans and rear. In to the Coupe. Rear springs bolts were a half inch each side too narrow. But being 17 years old,I pulled Thom out and clamped them down. They would not let me weld the drive shaft that I shortened. In Shop Class. It sure was fun to drive around on the old gravel road. The guy I got the car from wouldn't give me the title or didn't have have it to Begin with. There was a similar on in town that was called pins and needles or something close too it. It was a looker in the summer of 68. I don't recall any Major problems with connection up the Chrysler (Imperial) Crown Coupe. So I parked it and the Day after of graduation. I got a job in the steel Mills . Then the draft.
My uncle had a 49 fastback just like that. I used to play drive it when I was 7. Made quite a n impression and is one reason I got a 51 Studebaker to drive for real years later

My Dad bought a brand new 1951 Chevrolet Deluxe in a stunning battleship gray color. We had it for about 2 weeks. Went to the movie house one night. Came out after the movie and were interested to see a bare spot where we left the Chevy. Authorities found it next day upside down in a ditch right where the joyriders left it. Short but sweet history with the totalled 2 door sedan.

The master cylinder on most chevrolet car and trucks are terrible. I have a 1946 chevrolet truck and it took a can of wd40, heat and a lot of cussing.
The time to worry is if Derek ever says he has a plan.
You can’t do a real VGG revival in 16min…
GIVE ME THE 2 HOUR VERSION!!
lol - don't worry but derek posts 1+ hour long episodes all the time over at VGG's youtube chanel - lol
@@fennec13 I have watched his entire library.
Ooof-da!
Yes, every video
it’s a whole 7 bucks a month 😂
@@Nichole-440HP nah. Not happening. I’ll stick with the endless TH-cam content
@@Nichole-440HP 7 bucks what a rip off.
When Derek says "that was waay too much" us VGG fans gotta say "perfect!" It's involuntary!
This is true, I do that.

This is just a "quick glance" so people pay for MotorTrend to watch the rest, if you want to see more of this, you have to pay.
This!
@@j.d.8593 Why! when I can see him on his own channel for free and uncontrolled by penny pinchers
They have a full version. You just got to pay for it. That's why they do what they do.
so you will subscribe to their yearly subscription and see the full episode.

Derek makes everything better!
Brings back High School days in 67. Had a 51 convertible. Yours is in slightly better shape. Thanks for the memories.
The play on words make this so much better great personality
Great video. Had a 52 back in the old days. Loved it. Thank you for the memories.
Loved it. I love the old cars. Really love the old 3 on the tree. Thanks Derek.
Sparkalators and ignition sticks, it's a joy to watch someone who knows what they are doing! Oh yeah he MADE it run and drive. Great job again!!!

Need to do more shows with Derek from vice script garage.
He is hilarious and makes the show entertaining.
Wanted to let Derek know that my first car was a 1950 Chevrolet DeLuxe 4-door sedan. There was more chrome on the inside than the outside. Even had a tube-type radio...it had to warm up before you could hear anything. They are great cars.
What an incredible car !
3 speed powerglide baby wooooohooooooo!
I was born in 1951, so that car is 72 years old. Cheers from eastern TN
Talk about patience! This guy has way more than most, not to mention knowledge & skill. You're a pleasure to watch.

Congratulations on all of your Success Derek. You deserve it. Your a "Movie Star" now 👍👍👍
No one deserves it more. He’s patriotic and seems to really care about his family, and enjoys his work. We need more of these guys!!!

The simplicity both mechanically and aesthetically are what make this car so gorgeous. I want a 54.
I've got a '50 that ran when parked about 40 years ago...
Thank you for sharing and your APPRECIATION to your subscribers Derek
My grandfather taught me to drive three on a column in the 51 Belair. Drove it when I got my license prior to army draft. Brings back memories. Learned a lot about engines.
That's a car I would love to have. Well done on being so patient with the brakes. A thankless job everytime.
I love the Chevy six cylinder engines! They are so durable and dependable. As always, a great video from Derek of VGG!
Yep,the 216 and 235 were nearly indestructible!
The best channel ever for car content
Thank you!
The very best and only channel on the ol youtube with regards to anything with an engine is VGG.
I have been watching you since you had like 100 subscribers.
This is a special one. 44 years.
All new brake system. You must have had a lot of time in that one.

You never cease to amaze me, I enjoy watching all of your videos

May Gods Blessings and grace shine upon you and your family always
Great job! I like to see old cars brought back to operation. I hope you can restore this 1951 to "like new" condition. My Dad had a 1952 Chevy from 1952-62. A nice car. Keep up the good work!

It's a good feeling getting something driving after someone else has given up on it... even better when it's been sitting for years!
Fun Fun Fun.....
........ for us, that is!
Thanks Derrick, and thanks MotorTrend!❤👍🇺🇲
This is one of my favorite rum runners great revival
Yep, T-bone is watching. Derek, awesome as always. Quick fast and as I always say on Raley's Small Engines (on TH-cam) Too Easy. Keep up the great work Vice Grip Garage.
You can't beat them 52 Chevy's and Derek fixed it up and drove it!
What a beauty of a car , the poverty caps are my favourite piece with these ol’ gems . Cheers 🇨🇦
I love seeing an old car get back on the road. Especially one as old as me.
Derek is the absolute best!!! Great job sir. VGG rules!!!

Derek best people video regarding cars.
I had a half dozen of those 50-54 Chevys when I was a kid. Always started and ran forever.
Nice...
One of his safest finds yet,
Throttle stuck open,
No brakes,
Rust holes in all the right spots,
Good luck Derrick,

Derek is DA MAN! Brilliant!👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love this show..takes my hat holder out of work and cooking content..all these neet finds and pretty much always a victory in every clip..
I like it. Gotta agree with a lot of fellers , that it seems rushed. Peck
VGG is the best car show on the internet and it’s because the host is skilled, humble, hysterical, and all American.
One of the best motors ever built
Derek is simply the best. Even ashort video is cool. And old chevys never die .They jut go faster.😊

Wow dude that's going to be such a cool ride sitting low white wheels cruising
This was awesome hope to see more . Great episode!!! Straight to the point
roadworthy rescues should be its own channel
Seeing you use the air chisel and hammer brought back memories. It was miserable in the shop. I would lose my mind in the field.
I love that era of Chevys.
There a removable panel in the driver wheel well to give you access to the master cylinder. I used it on my '53 Bel Air. Made it a lot easier.
This fella makes smile
That was almost as easy as an Australian finding cheap freight prices from America! My 1950 Styleline brakes were pretty easy too. And by that I mean I replaced them after they didn't stop the 350 V8 I put in while idling at stop lights. Even the new brakes aren't great.... perfect! Really awesome to see you have fun just like I did with my Chevrolet!
We had one of those when I was a kid. I remember seeing myself broken up in those chrome dash slots.
“We got a 1 barrel” .. solid gold!!
Derek can fix anything 🎉
I had one of these, the 250 fuel pump will work with the 216/235, the arm is a bit different but does work
You picked a good one. Those GMC six bangers don't die easily!!
That was too short a video. I love your videos, you do a wonderful job getting the good old cars running.
I had a 52 I sold back in 2013 and I just bought a 50 fleet line I'm about to start building now really enjoyed watching this as I'm about to go thru most of the same headaches but going v8 route
That's way cool. Derek u did a nice job put the shine juice on it it's drive able
I always loved this year for Chevrolet. They make a real cool rod. Cut the springs, flat black with some baby blue scallops. That would look perfect. And don't forget the mexican blanket for a seat cover.
Dont you just love Derek... 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Derek does it best!
"The sparkler maker happeners"! I love it!
That was a good episode, remember watching it last year!
That car is beautiful
This guy is the coolest car guy ever
Dereck got motor trend on life support, bringing the vgg fam.
My first car was a 51 Chevy Deluxe Coupe with a 52 grill, had a lot of fun in that car.
Mine was a 52 Club C Coupe. Primmered black. No engine or trans. I found a 57 Imperial it was side swiped. Front drives fender all the way back to the rear wheel well. I installed the Gen 1 392 hemi trans and rear. In to the Coupe. Rear springs bolts were a half inch each side too narrow. But being 17 years old,I pulled Thom out and clamped them down. They would not let me weld the drive shaft that I shortened. In Shop Class. It sure was fun to drive around on the old gravel road. The guy I got the car from wouldn't give me the title or didn't have have it to Begin with. There was a similar on in town that was called pins and needles or something close too it. It was a looker in the summer of 68. I don't recall any Major problems with connection up the Chrysler (Imperial) Crown Coupe. So I parked it and the Day after of graduation. I got a job in the steel Mills . Then the draft.
@@donaldpowers3314 Sounds like it was quite the project.
Getting Derek on MotorTrend is such a win for MT.
This guy is king of the American Car TH-camrs funniest and the coolest. Definitely feel like I have similarities to Derek in my
Personality 😂
Nice pace to have occasionally for a video. Thanks. Don’t know what is going on with VGG here but it works.
My uncle had a 49 fastback just like that. I used to play drive it when I was 7. Made quite a n impression and is one reason I got a 51 Studebaker to drive for real years later
Trust me.... love your revivals.

Yes this will work in a pinch
Yes I'm sure your making Shiney nickles with this channel, but deric ,do not stop doing YOUR REVIVALS!
v g g for life. Love ya like a brother .😊 love that old chevy.
Finally, You have one that really is a Bel Air. The two door hardtop, on the Deluxe trim model, was the first to have the Bel Air name.
My Dad bought a brand new 1951 Chevrolet Deluxe in a stunning battleship gray color. We had it for about 2 weeks. Went to the movie house one night. Came out after the movie and were interested to see a bare spot where we left the Chevy. Authorities found it next day upside down in a ditch right where the joyriders left it. Short but sweet history with the totalled 2 door sedan.
Loved this cool short form of what he does
I aspire to be this level of get it done on my 59 el Camino
Wow that was awesome
I saw Derrick and knew this here was a good one 👍
