- New Show, Roadkill Garage! 3-Day Engine Overhaul
This is the pilot episode of an all-new show that will be appearing exclusively on MotorTrendOnDemand.com monthly in 2016. This episode is here on TH-cam to give you a taste of Roadkill Garage so you can decide if you'd like to subscribe to MotorTrendOnDemand.com to watch it (and a whole bunch of other gearhead content). You can follow Facebook.com/RoadkillShow for updates and behind-the-scenes info.
Roadkill Garage features David Freiburger from Roadkill and Steve Dulcich from Engine Masters (but, don't worry, Mike Finnegan is still the co-host on Roadkill). RK Garage will show Freiburger and Dulcich wrenching on Roadkill project cars and other things that meet the Roadkill vibe. They'll show you how to do the wrong things the right way.
In this episode, the guys attempt a three-day overhaul of the 351 Cleveland engine from the '67 Mercury Cougar that belonged to Freiburger when the show began, but that transferred to Dulcich before the shoot was over. The "rebuild" is not exactly kosher, but it's dirt cheap and generates good tire smoke! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
"still free on youtube" RIP
skatedoof ikr
Yeah corporate goons ruined a great show.
😔😔
I think they just uploaded a few full episodes the other day 😉
The good old days
"...still free on youtube."
I'm very sad.
#2019lyfe
I am too like wtf
And now they've removed majority of the older episodes :'(
roadkill lost a viewer
I aint payin
"When all else fails, just decide it's fine."
DF is my new hero
Ah a man of culture i see
Gotta love Steve's driving stance, head tilt to the side, arm lean on the window, banging gears like a badass!!!
0:05 Roadkill isn’t free any more. We all miss the old Roadkill
Oh yeah
That sure didn't age well, I'm surprised they didn't remove that.
Aged like a fine milk...
Here on 3/26/23 and Roadkill is still not free!!!
Dulcich is HILARIOUS with the faces he makes when he’s bangin’ through the gears 😂🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣
I was just going to say that! (I think I have said it, on other videos). His poker face is such a tell!
tapered ring compressor, the single most pleasing tool to use on the planet ever, it just so satisfying using one....
+David Freiburger I like roadkill better
I got Motor trend on demand and I don't care about paying that much, because of the awesome content. Its worth the money completely. Great job on that car guys!
+David Freiburger david im so happy about the new channel i enjoy your videos and learned so much about american cars with it here in england! keep going mate BEST SHOW EVER!!!
+Jack Notts
We appreciate that, Jack! Thanks for writing and for supporting us!
+Motor Trend Channel 👪
+Motor Trend Channel I love the content but the service simply doesn't work for me, support doesn't solve anything, I'm subscriber since november and keep paying because I love the shows so much but in reality I'm not getting anything.
Props
This is what drug dealers do. The first one is always free.
The good news is that it won't leave you broke, toothless and in jail. 😂
bluestudio67
debatable
Thats why you find a bunch of new dealers lots of free drugs lol j/k
Where tf are you getting free drugs lmao
I’m hooked 😁😁
Best thing was the cable tie spark plug lead separator!
You should make whole episode of Steve just driving and shifting gears like a champ. I would watch it!
Hey Dave Freiburger, I have a tip for all you guys. I have long lost count on how many coolant blasts I've watched you guys do.. ALL OF YOU!!! There is a simple solution to not getting coolant all over everywhere and having to spend the time to clean it up and work in it... Are you listening????? Ok, take a 2 foot long piece of 3/8ths tubing, (copper works very well), and a piece of rubber hose that you can squeeze onto one end of the tubing. Bend about a 90* hook in the end of the tubing that has the hose on it. Grab a few containers to catch the coolant. Slip the raw end of the tubing into the radiator and sink it to the bottom of the rad tank. Suck on the other end of the hose to start the siphon. Drop the end of the rubber hose into your container and drink a beer!!!!!
This is a very simple tool to make, so you can make one for ALL the guys who we watch CONSTANTLY douching shop floors, parking lots and the occasional friends driveway... lol.. AND you can carry one with you each time you go on a ROADKILL adventure!!!!
This doesn't do you much good on top tanks, but for all those General Masterbaters cars and truck you guys do, it will work just fine....
Love the shows!!!
Ps. When are we ever going to see some of Dulcich's cars???
This video made me feel so much better about my own project car 😂 between the wrong flywheel and attempt at pull starting is part of what makes me really enjoy this show! Really just everyday people.
i have been waiting for this my whole life, this is the way us real folks do it thank you so much for a show normal everyday people can relate too! this is what working on old cars is about! you have to have a passion and a good friend who shares your same interest! i wish i could do what you do every day!
Love the non-impact socket on the impact gun, wouldn't expect anything else from Road Kill.
Did it do the same job?
@@justsayin235 I've pretty much always used regular sockets with my battery and air impacts, even on auto repair stuff. Never broke one and chipped the chrome on a couple. Ymmv
My son loves the zip tie plug wire loom. He's used it more than once and the guys at the Firestone store he works at have used it on their personal rides. He like myself have picked many tricks from Roadkill and refreshed our memory on some we had forgotten. This is why this show is so popular. You don't have to have a ton of money to enjoy the hobby. In my son's case it's a hobby and occupation. All he ever wanted to be was an auto mechanic. When he went to the local 2 yr. college the lady who assessed his test scores for the course(s) he had chosen told him with his math grades he could go into engineering. He told thanks just the same but his life revolved around turning wrenches. Damn good kid even though I guess I'm a little biased.
D Tittle1964 cool
Honestly, what you described about your son also describes myself, I know it's not a good idea but I am more interested in saving for a project car of some kind so I can work on it than I am in saving for technical college for mechanics
It's kinda the way skaters and trenders lace there shoes ha ha there's a different cool way to do it I'm going to try it myself too Harbor frieght has zipties 100 for a dollar ...
D Tittle1964 ur a moron!!
Tracie Watts
Moron why sounds like my son and he was chosen at his community college 18 yrs old while working on his ASE certified classes a major elec car company took him in as a inturn he's now 19 and makes 25/26 bucks an hour what do you want your kid doing at 19??? shows like this inspire young and old I used the zipties and tossed the moroso cheepo snap in looms from Auto zone or whoever the zip ties look better and all that show chrome look at how much I spent on my chrome crap is out ......
this is awesome idea. you give people to see what this series is like before decide if they buy on demand thing. thumbs up for you guys
+yepyep yepyep
Glad you appreciate our efforts! Sign up for our free trial, and see what you think.
+Motor Trend Channel for honest i started thinking should i buy MTOD. but i live in finland and i cant watch all content in there but have to pay same amount as others. if that get fixed somehow i might try it out.
This channel is under rated. I aint even into cars but love to get to know the technicalities of cars/engines from a beginners prospective and this channel just oozes knowledge from experience all of which i have this channel to thank.
3 words: Dulcich's driving face.
I was just thinking the same thing Lol. of course 1 year later
Love this episode and the blunder of the clutch. It seems I am not the only one who makes these kinds of mistakes.
steve's expressions are hilarious and the way he's driving the car in the end is just funny as ever.
This is awesome. You started with a garbage motor that didn't run and ended with a garbage motor that ran for a few minutes. I have to commend you, that's better than most people that rebuild Fords.
Lol
+Larz nobody respects fords, do you think if it was a chevy small block they would have left that cam bearing as it is
+Christmas Crustacean Considering who this is? Yes. Yes I do think they would leave it as is.
+Larz (F)ix (O)r (R)epair (D)aily. It's an oldie, but it's soo true.
+crocosnzChrome Found on road dead
I just love how Dulsich was bang-shifting that thing like a religious ritual
Whoa...that zip-tie wire separator hack is badass!! Thanks so much Frieberger 👍
thanks for not showing the boring stuff about everything we wanted to learn u didnt show just like every other show
Energy Their shows are for car guy entertainment bro. We don't watch these to learn. We already know cars. If you need to learn how to do a particular thing, there are a lot of instructional vids on YT by thousands of different people. 👍
I would have waited the extra day for the bearing . Everything else was fine for backyard butchery but the leaving the bearing was in excusable
+Billy C. LeWorth
Yep
brings back good old memories. that is what its like when you have to do a major fix over a weekend. I've done it many times. keep it up guys. steve
Hotrod Garage is great for beginners which is why I was always kinda bored but this! This! Is great! Its for the people who already know the right way to do it, but secretly wish they could just slap it together and not care :)
Dulcich looks so serious when driving haha
+BCH37501 He drives like such a boss.
Psychopath 😵
I'm so greatful for both of you and MT team to bring to us your skills and good humor! Thank you Freiburger and Dulcich! I love you guys!
Should have just waited for the new cam bearing.
Vasko Chicago Well apparently it worked without it but there is no longevity there. After doing so much work, having to tear it apart again would be terrible. What happens to these cars after the episodes? Are they junked?
Totally agree, really stupid to do all that work to put it back together with a trashed cam bearing. Especially since now every time you drive it you'd be thinking about how that bearing is about to go out. Guess that's what happens when you're doing it for a show instead of doing it because you actually want to keep the car going.
I hope when they pulled it to do the flywheel they put a new bearing in it.
THANK YOU!
Blaine Bugaski...they SHOULD donate them or auction them off and give the money to The Homeless. :o)
Theresa Konieczny
19:49 haha steves face shifting through them gears✊
The way dulchich drives that bad boy you can tell it shoots him back to his cool days arm out the window to the look on his face priceless ..get it my dude only car you worked on can bring on that amount of coolness.
I disagree with David. The Cougar is a beautiful machine!!
I was shocked he said that
Kind of stuff that give car guys a bad name.
Love to see I’m not the only one that’s had these problems in the past great job guys very fun to watch but sometimes things do go perfect if you do enough of them
Steve is great. My favorite part of the show, besides the awesome format of showing actual work done by you guys.
You created something beautiful, then started doing 30 min ads for Dodge, and now you're slowing moving content behind a paywall. And now every video feels like you're using TH-cam as a sales vehicle to drive people to your website. Best of luck fellas.
Boohooo
Oh quit your bitching. Their content is still awesome. Their content is the best produced content for enthusiasts on TH-cam.
well said
+Woodeso's Guitar Mods I wanna see you go to work for 8 hours a day for free.
***** ....and have to pay a whole company
11:00 Never touch a cougar without wearing protection.
I was going to make a mum joke but I'll restrain myself.
Too many immature toddlers in the community doing that already.
Steve is perfect, calm and dry humor, but knows his stuff without making sure you know it
Yas! My favourite! The 351 Cleveland, same engine that powered the MAD MAX Interceptor and Falcon GTHO's!
Steve Dulcich has the coolest driving pose lol. Looks like he ready to tear shit up!
One of my favorites. Steve's test drive at the end is epic.
If you say David Freiburger's name 3 times at midnight, he'll appear and set your initial timing 180 degrees out.
20:16 meanest upshift of all time lmao.
I always thought the cougar looked better than the mustang
Im not alone right?
Only 3 likes xD 1years later xD . YOU are not right xD
Right
I agree, the cougar is cleaner and more classy looking than the mustang.
I know right? An uglier version?? No, way! Cougar looks epic!
Ikr
Dulcich could drive a shopping trolley and still look badass doing it.
I enjoy Roadkill, but this "trend" of paying for limited content is not really my thing. You would have been better off doing an episode with product placement here on TH-cam, you're using those parts anyway...
13:45 one of the funniest exchanges I’ve heard on roadkill. MTOD subscriber by the way. 👍🏼 love the content, totally worth it.
"Roadkill is still free on TH-cam"
Mmmm.
Much respect for being up front and not getting money hungry guys! Good luck to all your ventures anbd future videos. As long as you guys keep RK free and YT avalible Im good :D
+NoOneImportant556 Thanks!
+Motor Trend Channel Hey guys, i really love your content and would like to give you my money, so when are we going to get paypal so that i can throw some bucks your way?
+Alexey Puninskiy
We're working on it, Alexey; stay tuned...
I like your show. No whining. People still don't realize your show is fun, entertaining'and a blast to watch. You throw in some tips. Plus you are having a having fun yourselves. Keep doing what you are doing. Ignore all the naysayers. They probably whine about everything.
Love this 67 cougar video. I bought a 69 cougar for 800.00 bucks in75 and the guy I bought it from, willie D at willie d,s speed shop in Milton changed out the old 351 and had put A hot 351 Cleveland in it he bored And stroked to the max and what I called a 3/4 inch low loop cam that had torque and hp almost like a hot 454. I took everything in our town that thought they had bad mopars. I did change out the card from a 650 to a 1150 and it had air like crazy. I’ve sat in one spot and blew two old cheetah slicks just for fun. I don’t know the hp of that baby but 383 up to 440,s was looking at my tail lights. I even took a bad vet with a 454. The little rich boy didn’t even turn around to come back to the line and shake hands. He kept going. A Torino ss took me by a half car length two years later. Woke up one Monday morning to go to work and pulled out on to the main rd and it slung a rod. I never was able to get her back to the torque and hp she had. Candy apple red with a half White vinyl roof. Straight 2 1/2 inch pipes with a set of hookers. She rocked from side too side and I always loved the way she sounded. Love all your videos dude.
We called that rebuild a Dirt Motor rebuild. Did dozens of them with very little problems.
Dulcich's face while hes shifting is hilarious!!!!!!
I thought he was having a stroke as he shifted xD
if you've never seen the inside of an engine, this is actually quite educational.
as of now. I'm 12 minutes into this video. Iv been watching it for 2 hours. the beauty of straight talks "unlimited" data.
Dulcich left the tag hanging under the arm of that new Dickies jacket 😉
Never seen Dulcich so happy as when he's hard shifting burnouts!
I found a complete butter knife inside a tire once.
I found a box cutter in my runflat tire
Im happy that Roadkill still will be free :) Thank you!
Xaddio desechables por love
Well this is awkward
The cougar is not ugly!! I love the look!
what about ignition and head to head, will I still be able to see those free?
when, on motor trend on demand, there are already 2 episodes of ignition
+Nick Paskhin Yes. Ignition returns to TH-cam on March 14. Head 2 Head returns on March 30.
+Motor Trend Channel what about the F bomb episode of road kill that david promised 3 years ago on Wide open throttle EP61 @ 4:00 mins
+Nick Paskhin same thing that happened to /drive I guess, lured on board of the sinking ship called television by the smell of money
+lumix cross Great question! Sadly the F-Bomb Roadkill episode still remains TBD based on some mechanical obstacles.
"Are you volunteering me right now?"
Everytime I ask that, I get the response, "No, You're being volun-told."
Probably the best pilot episode of any show ever.
Dulcich is the bomb. I'm going to go ahead and subscribe, you guys make fantastic content.
Yeah, he seems like a nice guy. First time ever seeing or hearing of him
Alex Rodriguez he was on a few episodes
He was on the duster one
marshie1337 me too.
Steve Dulcich drives like a demon out of hell. its a compliment
I really appreciate what the roadkill crew does for the motorhead community! Car guys have been so discouraged by popular tv shows and everyone thinks you have to spend at least 50k in order to have a cool car(including myself)! But you guys proved mainstream America Sooo wrong. I'm back to working on my old muscle cars and ignoring minor defects that I thought would for some reason ruin my car project! Big Thanks from average income motorheads everywhere! I love Roadkill!!!!
I dont want on demand thingy, doesnt youtube ads pay enough???
Lol no. TH-cam subsidised the cost of the show to keep it on TH-cam for years as well as the dodge sponsorship.
All that went and they had to do something to keep it going.
Fuck Motor Trend on demand.
+blur2324 No roadkill in march and Freiburger is milking roadkill as hard as he can
+Ben B. Fuck you.
+Ben B. Stop whining.
*****
this is a part of their job, they dont work in completely different field like mcm guys
+Ben B. NO, FUCK YOU! Everything can't be made free, you moron. Nobody is forcing you to buy their programs!
Just when I thought RoadKill was the greatest show on the TH-cams.... you go and do this!
Great job as always!
Finnegan is cool no doubt but watching these 2 is like watching a couple old friends build a car, the chemistry is better.
rompn4x yeah I read somewhere freiburger and finnegan don't really like each other. pretty obvious to tell.
jordan adkins I think it's just the age gap at certain times. I don't think they don't like each other anything.
Finnegan and Tony are a pretty good duo
Imacar yay yeah they're probably the best actually. the more I watched roadkill garage the more I realized how horrible dulcich is on camera and how much of a jerk freiburger is.
HAHAHA Dulcich looks just like i do when I'm trying bang gears
+michael cianci That sunglasses, the seating position and the facial expression , got me so hard., laughed my ass off. Great Driving :D
DxCBuG not to mention he's resting his head in his right shoulder
I LOVE that car I had one exactly like that one in the mid 70's except it had a 289 4 speed ,it originally had an automatic and was changed to the 4 speed without changing the gearing so it was a dog getting off the starting line but I wouldn't shift into 3 until the finish line of 1/4 mile. Of course mine still had good paint and no dents or rust. I traded in a 65 Mustang convertible with a 289 Automatic that I literally wore out street racing, I had to drive it 14 miles to trade it off and I had to stop and put oil in it. It was sold to the paper guy who drove it for a couple of years, it looked like a mosquito fogger going down the road. I would love to have both of those cars back today, I am 59 and when I had those cars I was 15-17. Thanks so much for this video I loved it. It reminded me of the way I had to keep those two cars running. I changed the tranny in the Mustang 6-7 times by myself sitting in front of our house, I actually got really good at it, jacked up the car climbed underneath unhooked and unbolted every thing and drop it on my chest and back out from under the car, Those were the days, I can't even change oil in my vehicles now due to arthritis I am guessing too much fun in the good old days.
so... did they change the bad cam bearing?
+David Freiburger cause roadkill
+David Freiburger ouch. Please let us know at some point how it holds up. :)
+Ram Skirata Negatory good buddy. They could have at least JB welded it right. Of course Freiburger's from LA so the cam bearing looked just like the streets that he drives everyday. Probably thinks the oil will just swerve to avoid hitting the obstruction's Like the drivers of Southern California....
Truly enjoyed the pilot but there's a reason that TH-cam has become the worldwide phenomenon that it has. It's the free content. Wishing all involved the very best of luck but with already paying for Netflix and HBO subscriptions I'll pass on the MTOD paid content.
It being free though means without sponsors there's barely a margin to pay all those involved
LD ODOM You're not missing anything.
As the owner of a sometimes-running '68, I'm so happy to see a Cougar made it to Motor Trend. I always assumed you guys were not FoMoCo guys. (I know the Stubby in Episode 44 was a Ford, but still)
Hey, just like when I was in HS. Every project must be done by Monday morning.
I love Steve, he goes full throttle and has an epic given her the berries face! :)
I watched some of this and I liked it a lot. I'll pick it up again and try to determine why you left that cam bearing like that. (the three day deadline deal?) You guys must have known better than to expect to fire that up for the first time by pushing it. The honesty of showing stupid mistakes is especially refreshing. Keep up the good work!
To those wondering if RK Garage is worth the five-spot....yeah, totally.
Why does Dulcich still have the tag on he's coat? 2:29
so he can take it back and say Walmart this coat has holes and it's dirty lol
Ben Brown. Dulcich...thats why
His*
i watch mostly for the comedic value. That Dulcich and Freiburger comedy is priceless.
How surprised were you guys about the Cleveland power? Curious what Chevy/Mopar guys first experience driving one was.
If it's not on TH-cam I wont watch it. Enjoy.
Dolcich is the kind of friend to rebuild engines with, Great friend to have.
it took a month.. so why didnt you guys fix the cam bearing while you were busy fixing things
Make the price good for the UK and I think about it. I'm not paying for content I can't even watch.
I think they are working on that.
I just signed up and paid for this on demand. You guys better make alot of these episodes!
I think you guys are shooting yourselves in the foot even more. Look, I get it, you want to make money. I want you to make money. You make great content. But you need an audience. Moving behind a paywall will get more money out of your core audience, but it won't allow you to grow as fast, if you even grow at all. It may even cause you to lose money because of the reduced audience size.
I said it before, but I think it's worth repeating. You guys should do a patreon style campaign to finance each show. Make it so that I could give you guys a buck a month to continue roadkill garage. This way, I can support your shows that I like the best. If a show doesn't get enough funding, then stop making it. It will not only allow the majority to still watch for free but it will get you more money, and automatically balance what shows should stay and what shows should go. It is also the direction that most youtubers are going. So why do you guys feel like you need to do something else?
I agree
Dulcich drives like a G
man that Steve Dulcich really knows how to power shift like a boss
I guess I'd actually subscribe to MOD, but, y'know, outside the US...
+fredmachine ikr
+fredmachine Fri said they might be able to get a cheaper rate for people outside the US because they get less stuff, i'm signing up as soon as that is put in place...
+fredmachine Im outside the us and it works fine all you miss out on is some of the nascar stuff. Its about £3.75 a month so Im not complaining. I only want to watch roadkill anyway. If you want to watch the blocked content just use a USA proxy server.
weirdstuffanimation7 Yeah, and I guess 7€ for Roadkill and Roadkill Garage is something I could spare... If they accepted Paypal. Not going to get a credit card just for this.
fredmachine Its €4.55 not 7, Why should they accept pay pal just because you are too childish to get a bank card.
MT killed Roadkill..you guys were on the way to having one of the more successful channels on You Tube and then you sold out.
We need more Dulwich that guy is a great addition to the roadkill crew
who are these two hobos working on a what seems to be a stolen junkyard car?
troydiamond These two hobo's are idiots who can say they wanna turn a dump truck into something that does wheelies on almost a whim and then proceed to fucking do it. However, Steve Dulsich (is that how you write it?) is not on the 'real' Roadkill show, at least not permanently like David Freiburger (the other guy) and Mike Finnegan (absent right now for whatever reason, but a pretty cool guy)
Lol good one.
people are so butthurt about Motor Trend on demand.
get it, or don't. stop fucking whining.
i subscribed because i really enjoy the content and am willing to support all the great shows these guys put out.
if you don't want to subscribe, YOU DON'T HAVE TO. so stop crying about it.
+swapsplat Would you be willing to pay full price then find you can not watch over half of the content?
+swapsplat Yep, fuck these complaining morons.
+swapsplat How about you go fuck yourself ? How that works for you?
+QurttoRco
MOD is an option, not a thing that you are forced to get.
QurttoRco Wow keyboard warrior. How about I suggest you grow up and stop saying immature childish things on youtube.
This inspired me to pick up a 67 Cougar on my channel. It was my first car when I was 14, brought back a lot of memories. Love the Bang Shift Cougar!
pity this wont be on youtube...
22:09 boom
vhgy
+adagata69 HELL YEAH!!!
I like it! You did exactly what the average Joe would do in his garage, exactly what we want to see.
So regular Roadkill will continue to be free on TH-cam? I really hope so,don't sell out guys
+Bob Falfa Correct. The next episode of Roadkill airs for free on TH-cam March 25.
+Motor Trend Channel cool thanks,MORE MUSCLE TRUCK!!!
+Motor Trend Channel every 4th friday
