A Tale of Two Buicks! Plus: "My Classic Tire", and Renault Reassembled!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 เม.ย. 2024
- Hi guys! Both Myles and I are working on our Buick "Nailhead" V8s this week, and mine should be ready to try starting it very soon! Myles joins us from his garage for a look at how he is cleaning up the castings on his engine, and reassembling the bottom end of his 401, while I got busy with the intake manifold and oil pump and pan on the 264 for my 1959 LeSabre... A quick look at the reassembled R5 project, and then Dean joins us for a special "My Classic Tire" episode featuring the 1953 Packard "race car"!
Our 8mm film is back from the developer; I'll be including bits of it in the next several weeks' videos... Hope you enjoy these clips; I cropped them to fit this time. Special thanks to Steve Dean and Niagra Film Labs in Toronto.

you could fix a lawnmower and id watch
The Buick nail head you have is a 364, right? I guess it was a typo. You make so few mistakes I thought I would bring it to your attention. Cheers from Virginia!
The Renault isn't anything exotic, but you're still showing us metal forming, body and paint. Whether it's a Forward Look car or an R5, seeing a flat piece of sheet metal become a handmade patch that fits the original contour never ceases to be cool.
Well said!
Don’t apologize for the Renault. It has been a fun journey. Myles is doing a fantastic job on the Buick engine. Thank you Myles for taking the time to film your work. Have a great week everyone. See you back here on Thursday!
Sorry about your friend may he rest in peace.
It looks like the Top Secret Camera Girl is also a pinstripe apprentice!
I am wondering the same. Will she be in one of those 8mm segments making her debut?
@@abeld.4008 hmmmm.....the plot thickens..
That opening sequence is the best one so far - it literally looks like something from yesteryear!
Reminds me of the Zapruder film. 🙂
@@jamesdeath3477 Without all the gunfire of course!
Can't beleive I am the only one here interested in seeing work on the Renault
You're not!
I thought that line formed behind me!
nah!,,,, Le Car est awesome
R 5 is epic
I love that little car, I would love to own one just for the fun of driving it.
Great video. Dean being the Assistant Host of My Classic Tire was impressive. Great video
I got my beer and jerky from the gas station and rolled a couple smokes. I'm ready for the best show on Utube 😊
Awesome... Enjoy!
Don't drink too many beers and eat the smokes and lite up the jerky! 😉 That could be a new segment for CWM--Classic Jerky!
@@coldwarmotors it's my ritual for every Thursday and Saturday. Been watching since you got the Frasier and started working on it to be your daily driver.
Wow! Can't believe how those red stripes make the black paint job on the Renault look even better! Great job!
Good luck with the city battle.
Scott using the non-sinister hand to install some sump bolts blew my mind. We'll find out he's ambidextrous, and it wouldn't surprise me. 59 minutes of fun.
Great update on the two nailheads. Thanks to Frankers for the latest Classic Tyre episode! And your Renault 5 has to be one of the best examples left in captivity! One beautiful looking 80's classic, once so common and now very rare in the UK. Brings back happy memories as my parents had several, including a black one .Thanks for all the great content, just made my Saturday evening more enjoyable as always. Best wishes from the UK 🇬🇧
"Dont forget to cut the stripes at the door openings, or you will be sad" that cracked me up lol! R5 looks fantastic Scott !
Cant wait for the Chevy splice too.
I also have an ultra-quality oldschool crescent wrench which I absolutely cherish and adore. My father gave it to me 40 years ago. It is a German "Stahlwille" from the early 1950s. What an awesome tool. It opens up until about 50mm (2") and it is the only tool I own which can reliably unscrew and tighten the humongous 46mm nut which is used for the blower belt tensioner in my 1954 Magirus Deutz truck. It is between the pulley and the blower shaft, so you cannot get to it with a box wrench or a socket.
All other tools also fail in that department. The big Knipex Cobra is too wide to fit in there for example.
Greetings from Germany!
Love your videos and the greasy flips!
I bought Stahlwille Spanners when I was an Apprentice in 1973 and I still use them today. People can stick their overpriced lesser quality stuff off the white and red tool truck. Mine will outlast me.
German quality .
Hey Al....about 3 months ago I bought a Stahlwille crescent (only a 4'' tiddler) from my usual old tool man on the Market - Peter, I have been buying tools from him for 30 years all old all great quality.
I agree with loumontcalm500. It's a '60 Buick 'cap. We'll split the Sad Bastard of the Week Award.😁 First thing I noticed was that big Crescent wrench. Good score. Nice work on the Renno! It turned out WAY better looking than it has any right to! 👍
Hi Scott so sorry about Bob passing good luck going to city hall this coming week thanks to Myles for sharing more on his engine build liked the beginning of the show the Renault is a great looking car nice it was good to see Dean and FRANKERS my classic tire thanks to everyone there enjoyed watching.😊🍺👍✌❤
It's always a relaxing treat when we get a visit to Myles shed. Awesome "My Classic Tire" episode... the weed was expected... but the crack was a surprise. :D Cheers from a shed... in Iowa.... USA... two doors down... on the left.
Ha! I thought same! What a shame poor Dean! But you know a little crack is expected in workies across the board. 😂
@@Hammerbammers 😆😆
All that's missing from the 8mm film intros is some period correct clothing! Maybe someone should rummage thru Tom's closets--hopefully he was taller 60 yrs a go! 😎
Haha. At one time high water pants were all the rage.
@@bbrut3332That and the suede elbows on jackets.
The Renault is looking great with the new paint and stripes. Thanks again to Myles for the update on the engine build. Enjoyed the show tonight as always. Cheers Scott.
Dean is extra happy today 😂.
I’ve seen people use socket heads to hammer in freeze plugs.
I was expecting the butt end of a hammer handle to come into play. I was thinking it was the right tool for the job.
Godspeed Bob..... Laura's struggles with the government are disheartening, we wish things were different. The red stripes really changed the appearance of the Renault Scott, good job on that. Thanks Myles for Your contribution this week and Best Wishes to everyone at Cold War Motors, their Families and Friends...
Love the Monarch tire. The R5 looks wonderful. The paint is flawless and the red stripes really set it off!
Thanks David! All the very best as always from me and Frankers!
I think that new tire and hubcap increased the value of the Packard by at least double. Three more classic tires and the car will be good as new
You know Scott anyone who has worked on old cars knows that some just don't want to be saved and fight you every step of the way but that little Le Car is definitely one that wanted to go back on the road. Not my thing but go on you for giving it a second go around.
1960 Buick hubcap . Great video just sat down to relax and enjoy quality time with my favorite Canadian car guys . This made my day 😊
Ditto from your East Texas old guy... 😊
I had a set of those 60 Buick hubcaps on my car trailer up North in Maine.
Thanks for the hubcap info Ken!
I knew the CWM comments would have the answer. That's a sweet hubcap!
I guessed '56 Chev knowing I was wrong. No bowtie in the middle, and while sort of similar, I wasn't fooling anyone
my first guess as well@@jonathangehman4005
If you have to listen to voices in your head, at least Ashley’s is helpful…the 5 is cute as a button - love the red stripes! Thanks to Myles for his scenes from the engine room, too. Hope things worked out for Laura and Colin… see you next week - cheers!
Loving Myles' efforts on his Nailhaed!
Love rabbits and escorts, the Le Car is a gem. Everything is cool to somebody. Car looks great it’ll be even better when you get it finished.
A VW Rabbit feels a little too sensible for CWM, but I’d love to see Scott work on a first generation example.
Really looking forward to the first fire up of those Buick engines. The Renault looks great. Thanks for the updates. Cheers!
Cheers Heather! Glad you enjoyed it... I am also very excited to fire up my 364...
Hi Scott! Great job on the little Renault! Thanks for sharing. Our condolences on your friend Bob, and all good luck with the meeting at city hall this week. Cheers!
Frankers adds a high level of elegance to "My Classic Tires" and then Dean turns into a comedy of errors. The wheel cover falling off was pure comedy gold!
I’m actually old enough to remember when bias ply tires were all you could buy and those white walls look so good on the old Packard !
Those pinstripes really look awesome! It looks great guys!
The R5 looks great. Great that you have such good friends that like to sand.
I love seeing work on the Renault and the other weird foreign cars too. The stripes look really nice in red, btw.
Thank you agents, Myles, Dean, and Scott for doing this every week.
Glad you enjoyed it! All the best from me and the Menace!
All you need now is an Omni, a rabbit, and a Yugo to go with the le car for vintage 80's subcompacts
The 37 in the opening scene looked like a fairly new car in a vintage film archive recovered from an attic chest stored many years ago. 😮
So what you’re saving Myles is your Buick will out gun Scott’s 😮 👍🏻🇦🇺.
I love how this show is like a modern day variety show. It's like Lawrence Welk but with doobies and cars!👍
Very good! Scott should get a bubble machine!
@@superhet7281 Bobbie and Chrissy would approve 😂
Good luck fighting city hall. A hail damaged car that was painted black - That's a challenge, and it turned out beautiful!
❤ The 8 mm. Thanks from Sweden 🇸🇪
Excellent results!!! ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
I love the old cars and your channel.
It's a beautiful, warm, sunny day. Much better than yesterday's little bit of snow ❄️. Lol.
Have a fantastic weekend everyone! Thank you Scott and agents and Franker's!
My classic tyre is genius 😂😂
Thanx for another great hour.
The start up looks like coming home spring of 1970...
Great film..
.
Thank you Myles for the Video on the assembly of your engine. You’re very methodical at all you do. The Monarch Tire was funny. The Renault is looking great. That vin pinstripe looks cool 😎.
Will make a nice flip. Thanks for sharing!
💯👊👍
Thanks Myles
I say it every week. Best Automotive hour on TH-cam. Great seeing Dean and the Menace. I'll continue to pray for Laura. Those SOB's up where you are no different than the SOB 's down here. NO FARMS , NO FOOD. NO MILK. ETC. NO NOTHING. You can live without Hockey but not Food.. Take care.
Thanks miles.
Your are welcome and we always enjoy it.
Drinking my classic coffee during my classic tire.
Frankers nailed it this week
Fine job polishing the intake Myles.
Waiting anxiously for the R5 inaugural chip run!
Me too! Cheers...
Both nailheads should run great when they’re done. Thanks Myles for filming that nice porting work. The Renault is looking pretty sharp too. Also congratulations Dean for graduating plumbers school. Great video as usual guys. Cheers 🍻
WOW!!!!!!!!!! What you and Myles have accomplished these past weeks is totally amazing. "PORTING" I have heard the term but know I see and Know what it really means. Thanks Myles! Dino good to see you again, nice tire job for sure! Scott, your work is ALWAYS amazing to see...your results are totally the Best! Thanks for sharing so much of what you and the guys do. Cheers, Rich
She is going to be a great runner, they ran great 😃 in stock form 24:03
The 8mm segments really are a blast from the past, thanks! The Buick hubcap predates the tire and the Packard predates the tire hubcap combo. All together are beautiful. Cheers! 😎👍🛞🏎🏁🏁
Opening shot is killer! The taping straight lines amazed me all by itself! The Buicks will be killer!
This has been good fun . Thanx Scott
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks to Myles for sharing footage of his Buick build!
As always, great content! Thanks to Myles for taking the time to record the 401 footage!
Love that R5.
Nothing better than watching a master painter lay stripes on a job well done
Love the R5. Drove one a lot in Vancouver some time (ahem) ago. Ran like a somewhat noisy watch, carried lots of stuff when that was necessary, cheap as chips to run and nothing but good memories. Once the wheels go on, you'll be the envy of the neighbourhood.
Very cool! Always fun to hear from other R5 enthusiasts!
The Renault 5 turned out great! It may have been an economy car when new, but it’s a classic at this point.
The Renault looks fantastique! Two nailheads this week, what a treat. This was a great episode with a little bit of everything.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks as always for the continued support and encouragement... All the best from here!
That is going to be such a nice engine.
The Renault 5 looks great! We had two when I was a kid here in Vermont. Thanks as always.
Thanks Scott for all you do with the team 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇦🇺.
The beginning of the the show looks like it was filmed in 1937 great stuff I think the my classic hub cap is a 1960 Buick lesabre Invicta that Renault R5 is looking sweet
Hi Dan! You are correct of course... 1960 Buick... Cheers!
I want to thank you for the wonderful lead in of the videos lately! It bring back memories of some of my old cars! Great job !!
Woot! what an episode. The R5 looks awesome and MCT nice. Myles is very awesome for filming the clips of his work. Thanks for another great show! Best of luck with the council.
Glad you enjoyed it! All the best from me and Frankers...
👍
The door close sound on the Renault 5, was surprisingly solid
R5 looks super-rad and the Alpine stripes turned out great! The domestic content is entertaining, but I live for the weirdo Euro/Japanese stuff. Looking forward to seeing the Cinq all finished and on the road soon.
Hey 9088! Glad you approve... I think the Alpine stripes were your idea, actually? Cheers buddy!
I inherited a Crescent Tool Company crescent wrench from my grandfather. Definitely don’t make them like that anymore at least, not that I’m aware of.
Epic Opening !!! Frankers !!!!!
Nail Head Action ! ,
Myles , Thank you for your update video
Renault Looking sweet !!!! what a difference !
Impala splice time coming up
Mopar action soon ?? hmmmm Sport Suburban perhaps ??
Claasic tires with Dean ,
The 8 mm clips are awesome
Thank You for the video
I like the Renault, brings back good 80’s memories, the interior is about as cool as it gets. The variety of things you and the agents appreciate and decide to work on is interesting to me. Most enjoyable show I watch on TH-cam or anywhere else.
Hey thanks so much for saying so... All the very best from everyone here!
Wow you could put the Renault in a museum but i know you can not wait to drive it lets face it is basically a go cart and is just fun to drive especially in a city park any where.
Sunday morning special for me! Couple of tokes and watch Dean put on hubcaps. You can't un-see that, I sure hope Dean signed a waiver or something. I know there's a bunch more of us Old Bastards out here loving everything you give us, Thanks. I know you're getting older too, but when I started watching, you were building race cars and racing them in the pasture. Been hooked ever since.
I used to laugh when those commercials would come on viva le car.
Renault....The Car!
Fantastic work...
That tire upped the value of the packard by $2.66.😅
Miles....401...gonna be a fine power plant......
Would be great to have a Renault off..
Which one is quicker off the line gold or black????
Would be quite the video subject.....😮
Great video Scott.
Dean your just you....
Keep doing what yer doing....
I have used the older tire machines remembered the old ones where the center turned and you used a bar with a slot to remove and install the tire on the rim i guess i am dating my self i got started in the tradein 1984 that was a couple days ago.
Ah yes, the Coats 20/20. 1987 for me.
Your intros are always great. Seeing Frankers run and play is so nice. Great seeing the Buick engine together and Myles' engine coming along. Renault- looks very fine.
Glad you like them!
That Renault is just beautiful!
My first car was a ten year old mint green '62 Chevy BelAir four door, 283 Powerglide. I bought four brand new Sears Guardsman blackwall tires for it for $100 and was so proud of it. The Monarch tire segment brought that good memory back for me. Thanks!
The Renault hasn't looked this good since it left France! I'm not at all familiar with Renault 5s, but now I want one. Desperately. So thanks for that.
That R5 hits it out of the park on so many levels- it's truly amazing the level of finish you were able to achieve in such a short time: the paint and polish, the hand-taping of the pinstripes, the folding ragtop, and everything done in-house with your friends. Dean also killing this week with the Classic Tire segment- he tries so hard to focus- I laughed and laughed... A truly naturally funny human being!
Hello again...
Looking forward to more progress on the Buick. The Renault turned out nice !
All the work that you and Myles do is superb!!!!!
Hello good work
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks Myles for your time filming your Buick build. I would watch anything you post. Good luck with the meeting. Not sure what hubcap that is but I like it. 🤔😎👍✌️❤️Cheers.
I love the Renault 5 project, quick, cheap and very kool. I hope the new wheels make their way on in the very near future.
At 47:30 i was whooping as you announced that you were doing as i had hoped, and going with the red Alpine stripes! Exactly the thing for this beautiful car, with those wheels! Red seats would be awesome!
Dean The Greasy Flip Tire Pirate!☠ His favorite tire? R-R-R-R-R 15's!😆
Hard to believe how many things you are good at. Amazing!
Hi Scott, the Renault looks like it left the factory. Bravo my friend! I love the Classic Tire segment with Dean and Frankers. I hope you and Myles will have both Buick engines fully complete and tested. I hope you and Myles will have a great smiles when they roar on the test stand. I hope you and Laura will have great success in your stand against that stadium project. Please let everybody know my best wishes to all. Cheers!
