Bravo my good man, bravo. The holey goat has risen. You have taken one of the most classic of all muscle cars and allowed it to flip the bird at death itself. And you did it like a human being. No computers, no freaking LS swaps. No thousands of dollars worth of fancy equipment. Just an actual garage and every man's tools and abilities. My old 69 LeMans would be proud of you. I'm sure it's smiling up as rebar from some concrete pad somewhere. Gosh I miss that car.
@@PoleBarnGarage Hey, she lives on in pics and memories. If you keep doing what you're doing, I'd be tickled. Who needs a bunch of extravagance. Your kind of work is what I relate to. Now kick 'er down and make 'er howl. 💪💪👍
Congrats on the maiden voyage! I'm pretty sure that rear end I gave you is an 8.5 later then 72 model , which explains the longer snout. The date casting should be on the center casting next to the cover if you care to confirm. On a positive note , it should be stronger then the original 8.2 the car would of had!
This is the sketchiest thing that has ever happened in the history of sketchy things. On a related note, as of this moment you are 100% my favorite person on all of You Tube.
Cop sees you out driving.....Pulls you over and asks for your license, registration and the rest of the car! Those rear window cranks complete the HG! Way to go, it'll be the talk of the show!!
Did anyone record your first words, for posterity? "One small step for a disciple, one giant leap for a resurrection." In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holey Goat.
...and the clouds parted as the angels sang the sweet sounds of Il Potere Del Poncho! It was worth 17 videos to watch an otherwise scrapped/abandoned GTO drive a mile. Love this series even more now!
The excitement of driving something that would never, for a shadow, ever go on the road, after putting in all the time, effort and dedication, it couldn't be any other way! It's notorious! Very good!!! Excellent!
The look on your face and your excitement after the first drive is what it is all about. It was amazing to see all the hard work you put into the goat finally hit the road again. Pro tip: Dale Sr Gargoyle glasses would have been perfect protection since there wasn’t a windshield yet. Do it for Dale! Lol.
Awesome to see her move under her own steam! After watching the ad video for the yard auction, were they stood laughing & pumped a few more holes into her as if to say what idiot would buy this one! You have earned the right to spin dirt (if not driveshafts) in they're faces! 👍👍👍 Top work mate!
@@PoleBarnGarage I made my own driveshaft years back for a Suzuki SJ offroader I built, put a 2.0 pinto engine in it, pulled great wheelies in low range, but if you went over 25mph your teeth shaking free from your head served as an early warning that things were about to go south! So I just trailered her and she was fine off road. 🤣
Ordered the holey goat shirt. Got it in like 4 days. Love the videos and you have givin me the inspiration I need to finish my old beat up ford maverick. I will be ripping around in it this summer proudly wearing the holey goat t shirt.
I got to see your smile when you were driving that car.. I had one too. I'm really not sure what I would do if I seen that car coming down the road with no windows and full of holes.. I got to see how you hold the passenger door shut. We'll l call that electrical ingenuity LOL. . Other than the drive shaft being shortened and exhaust system ,,. This Holy goat will soon go viral.. I'm sure it is capable of going down in the world record. I'm sure your sponsors are wise to that.. I am one of your fans , to this channel. Cheers from Calgary Alberta Canada
Been a gr8 series to binge watch... been forcing myself to do ONE thing to my "car" before each episode.... even if it's tail light bulb .. just something & thats ~17 more things done - truly inspirational
Absolutely amazing !! Wasn’t completely sure it would drive again when I saw episode 1. If they had the category this would have to be TH-cam video of the YEAR!!! Hats off to you sir!
I’d like to take a moment to say thank you. Your content and personal make me smile, and that means a lot. This channel is one of the reasons I quit watching TV. God bless… Scooter
Every one of us following this guy has dreamed of doing the same thing on some level. Now here he is putting in all the effort and hours, taking us on the journey with him as if we're turning wrenches. Really, this is one of the best series I've ever followed,
I know I'm late to the party, but that was an awesome maiden voyage! The best part was the huge smile on your face and I get it, I would be crazy happy too, you deserve all the kudos!! I'm a huge fan of the Holey Goat!!
Ive got an old truck im working on just gonna say im turning it up quite a bit.. i cant wait for that same smile and feeling you have in this video buddy
Congrats !!! love the stance !!! the cold air intakes with the open air filter, lmao the seat !! what luck, sorry I laughed dang that does have some thunder !! OH NO !!!
This is what I call savage. A true rat rod if I ever seen one. Back country style to the fullest. Jaaa. Much respect dude. You are making me look bad. I haven’t done a damn thing to any of my projects. No damn time. I guess I gotta make time. Lots of car shows coming up here in SoCal.
My dad's been daily driving a Mazda b2200 that he and I swapped to a 351 Windsor and C6. The driveshaft is made from a combination of the f350 driveshaft from the truck that the engine came out of and the stock Mazda driveshaft. He made it with a level and a cheap harbor freight wire feed welder. And he does burnouts with it all the time. I'm sure yours will be just fine. And we have had the truck up to 100mph. Which is the screaming maximum for it's gearing. What you feel is the solid mounted engine and barely any exhaust.
😶 that....corner...rear drivers side just above the bumper by the trunk lid there...smashed in pretty bad its kinda messing with the lines...any chance of slide hammering that out a tweak?
I have a 73 Monte Carlo and I put the transmission out I put a Impala transmission long shaft transmission in it and I had to use a Vega Chevy Vega dry shaft with a special e-joint and it worked out pretty good
I lost mine on old yeller my 1970 GTo shared the crap out of me I never did find. You may want a loop under there to keep it from damaging anything! Keep up the good work!!!
Great to see her out in the world again! I don't understand the failure of the drive line. Could the suspension travel have acted to pull it apart? Did it feel grossly out of balance? Incredible that there was so little collateral damage.
very kool episode , really kool to see it go down road under its own power sucks the driveshaft said goodbye, when you first started i was like this guy is nuts, it will never go , just goes to show what a person can do when determined enough
If a guy was to find a decent Pontiac Lemans you could switch everything over to it. well at least the doors didnt fly open and dump you out. So its got some Good power!
That’s pretty awesome! I watch a lot of TH-cam car guys and this one ranks right up there with Independence over on VGG, in my opinion. Great job and I’m sure once you get the driveshaft issue straightened out, this thing will romp!

That just makes me smile. So cool to see it move. Don't ever worry about content length. 15 minutes of the resurrection made me happy!
Oh yea, bringing back memories of knocking on strangers doors, cause I broke down. Haven't done that in decades.
Me either! Strange not to have a phone on you at all times isn't it?
That's the only reason i have a cellphone.... my old junk breaking in BFE
Makes one appreciate having nice things when ya beating on a strangers door and your car is behind you... engulfed in flames... for the second time...
The simple fact that it's starts, runs and moved under its own power is amazing. Good job my friend.
oh my gosh..... I love it! This is so cool!
Hey Mook! Thanks! Might be a good pair with the Nova
@@PoleBarnGarage I agree!

I didn't know they made an 8.5 with bolt in axles, that suckers indestructible for sure
@@PoleBarnGarage BOP 8.5s had bolt-in axles, although that ridged rear cover is from a Chevy.
@@terrynixon8152 learned something new today, thanks guys
Love the perks! Loved watching this thing get out under her own power! Drives just like a normal car full of holes with no windshield! Lol
Exactly!
@@PoleBarnGarage Are you related to Vice Grip?
WAY TO GO!!!! Congratulations on it's glorious maiden voyage. You should be proud, we're proud of you!
Thanks!
Congrats on getting her some fresh air! Looks like you should be chasing after mad max in that beast
After watching this video, I can truly say you are a "Glass Half-Full" kind of guy! Congratulations!
Thanks!

Thats Awesome ! You got to finally drive it ! Working out the bugs, All part of it !

Those weren't clouds. That was dust...
You've made me smile really wide just now.
Great stuff.
I’ve been waiting to see this for so long doesn’t matter how long it lasted on the road still amazing
I’m super stoked to see this thing run and feel honored to just watch it from purchase to running. I can’t even imagine how you feel!
The water coming through the floor before the driveshaft went to wifi lol
@13:03 All the best stories start this way.
Absolutely
The coolest peace of "junk" I've seen so far. Greetings from Austria!!!
Hello my upside down friend!
I couldn’t contain my excitement when the video popped up the drive shaft fail glad your ok guy get her fixed and on the road soon
That car is just flat awesomeness!
That is a major achievement 👏..Congratulations! The best thing is it's only just begun...For the dream and enjoy the ride!

Try to find an old set of Purple Hornies for exhaust! The perfect match for that.............thing.
That first ride must have been such an amazing feeling 👍🏼💪🏽.
I'll never forget it!
AC (flow through ventilation) only available one year
Love it !
Looks like you need a set of snoopy goggles.
Congratulations on your first drive.
Jaaa. Great idea. Snoopy goggles would go with the theme. Like the Red Baron only better!

Seems like the welds on the drive shaft are to good for the u joints.

Thanks!
Congrats on the maiden voyage! The driveshaft may have had vibration, and vibrated loose. The yoke still being in the trans though… weird.
Strange all around, hopefully not recurring

Gotta love the water just coming up through that floor at around 0825ish.
It lives....congrats. well kind of...you'll get the bugs worked out. Love this build!
That's what it's all about!
Hell yeah that is awesome. I was excited to see it move this is a really good build. It looked killer as it backed out of the pole barn into the light
Its that feeling of finally getting them to run, its almost like watching your kid's first steps!
Pretty cool bullet laden hotrod
Big, goofy, maiden voyage smiles and giggles are what it's all about! What's a revival without a little bit of danger?
Makes life interesting
You are super down to earth love it
Thanks!
You did it it! Totally awesome! Can't wait for more driving footage!
Me either! I love this thing
Hell yeah man! She sounds damn good too! I know that once you get her dialed in, she's gonna be killer! Can't wait for the rest of the videos!
loved the water shooting up thru the floor board fantastic
We've all been waiting for the maiden voyage! Very nice!
Thanks!

Congratulations dude it is so cool seeing that car moving on its own power just freaking awesome keep the great videos, Man
Great to see her out in the world again! I don't understand the failure of the drive line. Could the suspension travel have acted to pull it apart? Did it feel grossly out of balance? Incredible that there was so little collateral damage.
I really don't know man
At least it was polite enough to not take its ball and go home when it decided it didn't want to play any more.
congrats! Kansas City or Bust!
great vid! you got that cool rig back on the road! keep up the great work!
dude great job & good effort restoring this GTO...
Thats the most uneventful rapid tailshaft ejection technique I've ever seen
Same. Who needs safety loops?
@@PoleBarnGarage they're for people who aren't quite ready to go full sketchy

Holy crap.... literally. That. Is. Awesome.
Been watching you since you started I dig your bluetooth drive shaft lol and that thing drove minty!
Awesome! Love it. Glad to see her move under its own power. 👍🏻👍🏻
So cool to see that drive...can't wait to see it with a good driveshaft..add a driveshaft loop and a windshield for safety
Safety... Sometimes

very kool episode , really kool to see it go down road under its own power sucks the driveshaft said goodbye, when you first started i was like this guy is nuts, it will never go , just goes to show what a person can do when determined enough
Giving up is never an option
Bad to the bone right there!! That had to feel amazing just knowing how long it's been off the road and you got her going again.
It was an awesome feeling. It's a high you only get after immeasurable suffering 😂
If a guy was to find a decent Pontiac Lemans you could switch everything over to it. well at least the doors didnt fly open and dump you out. So its got some Good power!
I could, but that would be wrong. It's better left like this
Holey Goat gives a whole new meaning to the phrase; "I call shotgun."
Yes! I love that this thing is a car again and didn't end up as yard art.
