Wagons are the most fun cars to drive. Doesn't matter if they fast or slow
,💯👍
Do you guys actually restore car or just get them running?
I’ve got to agree with you!! Love me a wagon!
@@josearriola3087 It depends if it's worth it or it's just a money pit
My grandparents had this exact car! I remember many summers riding to the cottage in the rear seats with my Brothers.
My grandpa gave it to my older brother to drive to high school and he pulled out the motor to put in his 73 dart...I was gutted.
I've been trying to find one ever since, but living in rust belt Canada there are nine left. You guys are certainly blessed...I would give anything for that car!
I came across a decent looking survivor that was posted on Auto Trader about 2 years ago, and located in Burlington, Ontario. Asking price was pretty high, however.
One of the things I really appreciate about this channel compared to other revival style channels is you guys don’t just stop at the revival, you throw some mods at a vehicle and make something really cool with it.
I hope we get to see more on the wagon, it’s super cool!
I really appreciate that 😊 We’re excited to bring this one back to life!! Thanks so much for watching!
They’ll definitely be more on this one!
@@BudgetBuildz can’t wait to see it! This thing would be a sweet power tour car!
This thing is worth a rebuild you don't see too many station wagons anymore and it's still practical.
While I prefer restoring vehicles to stock. Stock can also be, " cool".
While I prefer restoring to stock.
I’m so excited to see y’all rescuing a wagon! There’s nothing like a classic wagon.
👍💯, hardly ever see one on the road anymore.
Wagons make me think of childhood family vacations 😄
Burnout car yea
Nobody bothers with family cruisers.
We can’t wait to bring this one back!!
That is the right alternator for that car, it's a Leese-Neville heavy duty unit that came on the full power Chryslers to run all of the electrical accessories. They were also used on ambulances, police cars, and industrial applications.
OMG! Love me some station wagons and even though that air craft carrier is huge and consumes fuel faster than Budlight is losing sales, I love it! So big and so wasteful. So over the top! So grand! Your Porsche project was amazing! Been here since the light blue VW pickup. Must see channel! I was 14 when this was a new car. Thanks for getting it to run again. I hope it goes to a good home where we can relive an era when SUV
"s and runt CUV's never existed!
I am glad you love station wagons as much as we all do! Everything you guys find is always a hit with viewers. Just another beautiful beast to power wash, tweak and get rolling. If your favorite ice cream shop, hot dog stand, taco joint and burger bar are REALLY nearby, you have found the ride that will get the WHOLE family there in roomy comfort. Count me as one that thinks this land barge is one good lookin' rig begging for a new life. Looking forward to part 2 - cheers!!!
Wow, my Dad had one of these back in the days. White with the wood paneling. Memories. PLEASE don't modify it. Restore it back to what it was given its a runner. No side pipes and weird stuff. Thats my vote. Wash, repaint, new paneling....it deserves that. :)
Wow I sure love seeing these old classics coming back to life! Your doing an awesome job on these restoration projects, keep up the amazing work!
Woo hoo! Let's get it done! Hope everyone is doing well and having a wonderful week! 💙🙏🏼
Back at ya'
I am looking forward to this (?) two seconds nto the video...
Really enjoy watching your videos
What a cool old rig! Definitely get it back on road!
Y’all do such great videos! Love the channel and y’all keep ‘em coming! Would love to see more on the old wagon!
What a nice find to rescue keep it original once you give it a nice clean it is something that you don't see any more 😂 thanks for your guys that we can enjoy this builds 😊
Yes, please don't ruin it with ugly exhaust and white letter tires.
The box to the right of the ballast resistor is the EGR valve timer, not essential to starting or running the car.
The alternator is most definitely Chrysler's High amp alternator. They used these in cars that had all the electronic accessories such as electric seats, electric windows, etc.
Wow, that's a big old bus! Sounds really good once that lifter settled down too! :)
Can't wait to hear it RUN, let alone see it CLEAN! 😁
The T&C looks like hell, but with a little work, and some "power adders", that would make a very nice muscle wagon!
The Griswolds wagon!! “You think you hate it now, just wait til you drive it Clark”!! Lol get it road worthy and take a family vacation!
Holiday road , first thing that came to my mind when I seen it.
3rd box on the firewall should be the voltage regulator, not entirely sure on these earlier mopars, more familiar with late 70's and early mid 80's stuff.
A series on this would be great. This awesome wagon deserves to be restored. The engine did not put you in trouble at all!
Rescuing is just Very First Step.Let see Restoring,Repair,Upgrade.AND,After That-Let it RUN! In all this Beauty. Sorry,Guys,BIG Dislike,You turture This Car trying to "run",sorry for this Gorgeous Car in WRONG Hands!
Another great project. Your videos are very well watched. It's a pity that I'm so far from you because I have a nice Audi Coupe Quattro 1992 to rebuild.
Rafał from Poland aka Majduk_1
YES YOU SHOULD DO MORE WITH IT!!! I’ll come start cleaning it up! Lol
The alternator is a GM 100 amp bought by Chrysler for an electric rear window defroster. What you thought was a pump for the shocks is really a "fuel pacer". It makes the left blinker light come on when the vacuum drops because it thinks you are lead footing it and being "fuelish" as they said in the 70s. I forgot what that module is next to the ignition module, maybe the OSAC timer. I hope you restore the car. They are my favorite cars. I had a 74 Satellite, 75 Imperial, and 73 Adventurer. All of them were wonderful!
Thanks for the Dagmar reference. Sent me on a pleasant internet search 👀 👍
My first car was a 1976 Fiat 128 3p and I tinkered and struggled with it just as you are doing with your 1976. I had a mechanic about two miles away; my ten speed bicycle fit nicely in the hatchback 😝
That wagon appears to have the A35 Heavy Duty towing package capable of towing 7,000 lbs with the 440.
They had truck rear axle and brakes and air bags
Nice Car 🚗 and nice video 📹 👍!!! That was funny that big Barff of rust puke the first one was the best !!! Get those brakes working and fill up those tires
Lol…Town and Crunchry
My mother had a '72 Pontiac wagon. A Grand Safari with the 455 c.i. motor. Huge car. Had the clam-shell tailgate and seating for two or four more behind the rear seat. Sure wish I had gotten hold of it before they traded it. Was nice to drive and would move on out too. Hope you rebuild your Chrysler.
Might have been mine, timing is right. VA DLR sold CLT auction. Used as shop hauler, what a great beastie....
Excellent video Budget Buildz :) yes great find on Station Wagon Chrysler also Voltage Regulartor do get rustv up to change, Balis Resitor go after so many miles driven or years too and worth checking to Voltage and replacing them ! Oil filters on Fram what problems on them is not Oil Ring or leak it need changed them ever oil change and rubber seals to ! But lots people leave on old so get double on rubber seal but needs to check out before put take old off stick on metal be shiny on motor before new oil filter on ! Also not changed 6 or yearly dangerous to motor should be changed on 5,000 miles only maximum ! But oil filter happens on is main is number 2 reasons when have vechile has Conventional Oil to used use Conventional oil filters also vechiles take Synthetic Oil use Synthetic oil types filters only ! That need read oil filter use for Conventional or Synthetic too before installing them I seen to many motors blow up and even catch on fire because of of it and say be smart also wise ! Plus even garage business tell what use on Oil filters and type Engine Oil on oil changes! On box Oil filters tell to it simple to understand too ! Hopefully this help everyone to understand! Also Budget Buildz fix up that car and nice vehicle also when first started up engine shot loads dirt out and plus smoke then cleaning up afterwards too !
I'm A Mopar guy myself, and would love to see this thing back on the road. I have always loved the "C" body Mopars, and you have definitely earned a subscription from me, my curiosity is peaked. On a foot note, if you truly want to care for this car, a rule of thumb of mine, is to always change the timing chain. They came factory with Nylon tooth gears. Also note on a big block Chrysler, never free rev into the secondaries as this can round off cam lobes, Chrysler cams were soft. Hopefully the frame is in reasonable condition, would love to see it up on a lift. Oh, yeah...the station wagon does have a different fuel tank than the standard car, so they are not interchangeable.
I was so impressed when you let that cockroach go scuttling off. Let’s face it, their job in life is cleaning up after dirty humans!
No lake pipes though, and i like how quiet it is! I think you guys should try to strip off whats left of the wood on it, and just go with an all blue wagon! Maybe restore the interior! Best of luck!
Congrats on getting her running 👍 now you have the fun project of chasing down bad wiring 😂 A notorious electrical nightmare 😉 I'm pretty sure you guys will sort it out. Keep up the good work guys 👍✌️🇺🇲
That's a Mopar for you sitting since the early 90's and fired right up. I have seen other cars sit for less time and give more issues firing up then that one did and that's because it's a old Mopar for you they run forever.
When the magic goo comes out you're buying diapers for two-and-a-half years...
So glad you saved that one before someone derbied it. There aren't many of these old Chryslers left to be found these days, especially the wagons. I hope you have fun with this one!
Thats awesome. Would love to own that❤
One of the things I really like about your “will it run” videos Michael, is your systematic approach, air filter off, check for oil, disconnect fuel line to carb, plugs out, lubricant into cylinders etc. way more efficient and increases the chance of an engine start 👍🙂
These Were Big but Beautiful at the same time Love Them back in the day 😚😁💕 4:00
I'd love to see a full rebuild of it. Keep up the good work, guys.
Save the station wagon and fix it up and drive it. Big huge cars are fun to drive and they certainly turn heads.
Shes definatly got those birthing hips on her! good find! still hunting for one of these myself up in western Canada...🍻
Think you hate it now, wait till you drive it!
Looks awesome!
Good ole Eugene Levy w/his crazy eyebrows!
@@DarkFlamage lmafao!!!!!. it does kinda look like the family queen truckster
That roach off camera would not live. To each his own. But where there's one, there is more, yes?
She's fine all stock to me. Headers and side pipes? Nah, I'm good.
C-Body wagons - the ULTIMATE FAMILY HAULER. Looking forward to this!
HEY B.B. MY SON MAX AND I LOVE THE OLD WAGONS WHAT A AWSOME GREAT CAR !!! GREAT WORK TO YOU BOTH GETTING IT GOING,,.. WE NEED TO SEE MORE VERY VERY SOON ,, LETS CLEAN IT UP ... WE KNOW THE GAS PRICES IS GOING TO BE HIGH ,, BUT ITS WORTH THE FUN.... THANKS!!!!!!
I love this old wagon I used to have the exact same that might even be my old car I sold it a long time ago tell a man that parted after he became ill
Hope to see it come back all the way.
I'd drive that old barge. She deserves the love just for being parked and forgotten for all those years.
Side pipes would be cool. That car kinda reminds me of National Lampoons vacation
I really appreciate the kindness to animals and insects, keep it up! (also car stuff cool)
Thanks for the saving of another classic piece of history! And would it be for sale?
What a big voluptuous beauty. Would love to just cruise her.
Looking forward to seeing this revival! Clean and detailed, and on the road!
That wagon looks to be in decent shape. I hope you get the transmission hooked up, brakes fixed and new rubber, then clean her all up. I like this wagon. That third seat makes this a treasure.
Heck ya... fix it up and head for Wally World!!
Thanks for rescuing that wagon from ending up in the crusher & for bringing that good old girl back to life. It's comforting to know there are still guys like you paying tribute to those great cars from yesteryear.
that certainly IS TOWN N CRUNTCHRY....
😍
😁😁😁
hi man love this chrysler 440 please fix her up man
I'm going to rename this car the town and crunchy
This car takes me back to my childhood I would so want this car it's amazing
LOVE the ol family wagons! Brings back old childhood nightmares lol.
U should clean it up and make the air ride drop it low when it park
Love the old boat! Show it some love and get it on the road! Good job guys! ❤
Awesome old wagon. Keep the rescues going my friends. God Bless
Yes, the body of the TQ is phenolic. The TQ was modeled after the Quadrajet in that they wanted tiny primaries for better MPG. It replaced the AVS which was also a spread bore. I love spread bore carbs. I recommend an AVS or the AVS II as a replacement.
The body was the main problem with the TQ. It would either crack or warp and cause problems. I had a 77 New Yorker and had carb problems right away. Soon as it got hot, the car would die.
Yeah, it towed a huge boat, from seeing the boat lift stuff in the back, plus the hitch size without load levelers. I had the same basic car back in the day, in Dodge's version......
fantastic keep rolling with this wagon !!!
I got a 77 DodgeRoyal Monaco Wagon and the right rear door was the only door that opened....someone broke the drivers window to get that door open...all of a sudden, the rear door stopped working.....a year later, it began to work again....think it's related to the power locks and the system Mopar used?
Side of pipes yeah maybe that'll be cool!!
Again, I am convince cars don't rust in your area. Would be part of Mother Nature 20 years ago here in Northern Ohio.
the mystery box is the voltage regulator.
Dude you should fix this thing up and make it comfortable with ac and take it on power tour!
We absolutely are fixing it up!! 😃 We will try to make it to PT this year with it, it not it’ll definitely be next year! 😊
Land yacht!!!
The thing next to the ballast is the EGR timer.
Your format is one of my favorites on TH-cam. You guys do quality work and do things right. The Roach Motel carburetor cracks me up 🪳😂🤣. Love the fender skirts.
Looks like the Griswalds family truckster. She’s a beaut Clark!
Not even close. The wagon used in National Lampoons Vacation was an 82 LTD.
Beautiful! Take it back to original
Way Cool wagon Love Budget Builds 😁💟
Great project! Took my drivers test in a big old boat like that back in 1974! The three point turn part of the test was interesting to say the least. Make it a runner and get the whole family in that for a cruise. Great tow vehicle for your 911 also. 😂
Man that’s awesome! She does sounds better the longer she’s stay’s running! Definitely looking forward to seeing more updates on this one!👌😎👍great job guy’s!
I think these old wagons had so much style and are very under-appreciated! Great job resurrecting it!! Look forward to what you do next!
And I'll say it again... dude wear a mask !!!!!
And you could name her Shakira!!!
CAUSE HER HIPS DON'T LIE!!!
I love old wagons. Wish they would make a comeback.
In my teens, I had a '55 AMC Rambler Town & Country wagon, whitewalls, many of the options available at the time. Color scheme was great--that sky blue with white accents going on.
What happened to that car? My STUPID IDIOTIC stepfather destroyed it.
Perhaps it's "redemption" somehow, but seeing this '76 T&C wagon being rescued makes my day.
An ending side-note: After being "fed-up," for reasons following, I told my stepdad the following:
"Stay away from my cars. Don't try to work on them. Don't even LOOK at them. King Midas touched everything and it turned to gold. You're touching and turning everything into SHIT."
Yes, I confess, I was very pissed off, and rightfully so.
This video was AWESOME !!!! I love how you took your time and di everything the RIGHT way !!! Good for you. Much respect for you !!!
Yes yes yes do every thing to it .
I love the wagon it's awesome what a cool car man you could haul a lot of record albums in there the 440 sounds good have a great day
Can’t wait to see what you do with this! I love old wagons!
Love being a guy from Wisconsin listening to a guy from South Carolina call something crusty
You haven’t seen crusty my friend😂
Great videos
this mid most definitely the Town & Country I’m used to! yes! station wagons with the fake wood on the sides that my brothers and me hung out the back window in and made faces at cars behind us! years before minivans were even on the drawing board! my mother drove two - a ‘71 and a ‘77 - took my driving test in the ‘71 and parallel parked it! .. the ‘71 had a 383 and the ‘77 had a 440 - this one looks like it’s either Astral Blue metallic code B2 or Jamaican Blue metallic code B5 cornering lights were fairly rare
Great find! Looking forward to seeing it go down the road! 🏴🏴
"Parked in 1991, reasons unknown" you say. Maybe because the excellent fuel economy (3,8 miles per gallon? 😱) and some rust issues? 😁 ;-)
2) 👍👌👏 Well done again. Another vehicle saved. Maybe the complete exhaust is clogged up? At least it looks and sounds like that.
Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you.
Much love from Easley SC. Your channel is awesome
Thanks so much! I live in Easley as well 👋
Absolutelyawesome..No side pipes... Headers and dual exhaust out the back just like factory...
Remember seeing one of these in Avocado Gold with “wood” paneling. It was owned by a hard-working couple, who, with their three children would mow yards in the neighborhood. They would hook up a small trailer for some of their equipment. As if the wagon wasn’t already long enough! St. Petersburg Florida, circa 1987.
I love the 440, but hate what they did to it after 1970. Low compression and emissions spiderweb. I owned a 68 GTX. Very much of a challenge to keep it going on longer trips because of vapor locking issues. Fun video
