What Was I THINKING? I Restored a 1970’s Shaggin’ Wagon To Match My Ford Pinto! | JEFF DUNHAM

- After buying a 1977 Pinto Cruising Wagon, I knew I had to reunite it with its big brother - the Ford Cruising Van! So, I enlisted Dave Shuten at Galpin Speed Shop, a division of Galpin Auto Sports, to join in the fun. Check it out!

Jonathan Schmidt Now need to take it on Jay Leno's garage
He's too much of a purest for Jay to rationalize the existence of.
Well, Jeff has already been on Jay's show with his Gremlins...
I actually had a lemon yellow Pinto station wagon. And what made it very special was it had a constant sent of gasoline. This made for adrenaline filled travel. I'm pleased to say things have changed and I now get my adrenaline from Hemi engines.
My first new car was a 75 Pinto brown with orange and yellow pin strips. I was 18 and in the air force. Loved that car and didn't burn.
It must be so nice to be able to afford to do things like that. Jeff has worked so hard and deserves this kind of happiness. Best wishes, Jeff!
I love that he restored two regular cars from his childhood and not some Ferrari or Lambo
Jeff eu penso que tu and em Trump ou Biden.
I remember hearing from the production staff that Jeff was the #1 Vegas performer of his time, maybe still is. You go J!
You have to respect a guy who chooses the cars to collect because they mean something to him rather than because it's what he's supposed to have in a celebrity car collection.
I dunno, a guy who plays with PUPPETS ???? :)))
@@gertraba4484 Let's see, a pretty easy job, and makes loads of money? I would be okay with that too.
I live in Colby, Kansas where Jeff found this. I work in an electronics shop and I'm about 95% sure I worked on the stereo system in this exact van about 20 or 25 years ago.
Hehe, that would be badass
Hope you didn't pull the 8-track out
LOL, the bucket of candy was a nice touch. Great restoration job.
Wow Jeff, what an awesome van. Thanks for sharing her with us. Dave did beautiful work on her and you did the entire world a favor by committing to restoring her to her former glory!
Actually pretty good choices for a collection. Relatively inexpensive, yet iconic pieces of automotive history.
This is a bad ass video documenting a part of Jeff's life long desire! Dave is one hell of a builder and has one hell of a shop. There are a couple vehicles in the background I would love to see more of. Congrats Jeff on having 2 vehicles in your collection that were not only fun to find but fun to build!
@mrbratt69 I'm with you. There's a red something parked in the row by the wall seen over Jeff's left shoulder at about 18:40 in the video, that means nothing to my recollection but I'd sure like to know what it is.
Jeff needs to take that van to someone who can sort the underbody, road gear and motor. It doesn't sound bad but it needs "tarting" to go with the rest of the "shagwagon" look.
I get the feeling that Jeff's mother's anxieties about a 14 year old wanting a shagwagon were well founded.
Nice paint job Dave though it somehow went a little flat when you removed the blue layout tape. Maybe a blue pinstripe would pop the colours again. Just MHI though.
Regards from Canada's banana belt.
🤞❄️🇨🇦🍌🥋🇺🇦🕊️🇺🇲👍
Just seeing this. Why can't the car shows on TV be like this? No drama...just, here's what we did and here's how it looks. Roll credits.
How can I UNDERSTAND how HARD this is if PEOPLE aren't SCREAMING AT EACH OTHER ALL THE TIME
Cause the drama attracts the normies
This is like a scavenger hunt and it looks amazing! I love Jeff’s friends. They’re the ideal people for his personality for some reason.
It is so wonderful that you had the resources to be able to pull this off. Dave is absolutely awesome. Wonderful job. They are a great addition to your collection. I love them both van and Pinto. You the man.
Now you have to add an 8 track player and a waterbed in the back.
...AND upgrade the suspension to "off road".
Best bumper sticker ever.
“Explodes on impact, another great idea by Ford”
He seems so happy with the van. Just wait until one of his daughters wants borrow it for a weekend. That thing will up for sale on ebay so fast.
Jeff literally prolonged the life of the car some 50 years or something. Thats amazing. So much respect for a great restoration.
Out of this whole Cool as Heck vid Dave impressed me the most. He searched the World for a part could not find it and instead of giving up like most, HE MADE IT HIMSELF! This dude is Worth his wait in GOLD and he is a very BIG MAN!
This is a great restore, I love that they brought it back to original. I couldn’t help but smile through the whole video.
My mom's pinto had a licence plate frame that said "Hit me easy, I'm full of gas." Loved that car.
Santa Rosa decades ago, guy painted white yellow orange red flames from the back going forward, sign on the hatchback "close cover before striking". very custom, he's popped a little V6 in it, nice wheels etc.
That's awesome! That could mean so much besides what it implies about the Pinto itself........
@Carol Harris which is now more valuable than the pinto
Needs the obligatory stickers on the back or side windows "If this vans a rockin' don't bother knockin' " & "Don't laugh your daughter could be inside" Great work on the restoration and thanks for sharing... cheers from Australia 👍
glove box sticker "ass gas or grass, nobody rides for free".
I had the "Don't laugh your daughter could be inside" on the back of my cruising wagon. My girlfriend at the time was not impressed and neither were her parents. lol
Barry Atkins, how about 'Up In Smoke'?
These were rolling party wagons! After kicking my buddies to the curb, I was ready for a little "quiet time" with the lady...
"Help support wildlife.
Throw a party."
The perfect puppet hauling machine.
Mr. Dunham: I don't know what I like better. Your comedy or your car collection. Both are top notch.
my dad had the classic VW van (bus) with curtains, and a bumper sticker that read, 'don't laugh, your daughter might be in here.'
Thanks man that gave me a good laugh after a bad day at work.
My cousin had a VW van. He called it his "shaggin wagon" and I remember searching it once to see if he was telling the truth. I found the proof: a bill for new shocks and new axles.
Had similar sticker (don't laugh,your mother might be in here).
I liked the parts where it shows Walter as a teenager!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Anabel Mask Not gonna lie, I was rollin' at that!
Vision, craftsmanship, and professionalism. Excellent result.
Oh man...that's a piece of my childhood right there Jeff! I had the model kits of both of these when I was younger! These were my the epitome of 70s cool!
Hey Jeff you should contact Ford and show them the ad and the vehicle's together. Bet they would love to see that
Ford probably knows about it, Galpin is the largest Ford dealership in the country.👍
That's cool that you have the matching set now. The van came out great. :)
Jeff is my hero. I remember seeing that ad back in 1976 or so and thinking it was so cool.
This thing is beautiful! And your idea for the bubble window was genius. I had a Tonka van that looked a lot like this, thanks for saving it from the junk yard.
Very kool. I love the way you find and restore past vehicles that most don't care about.
Anyone with money can buy a sports car like they all do but to have old school kool vehicles from childhood is Jeff Dunham kool
You ought to trailer the pinto behind the van
You should definitely tow the pinto with the van but you should get a car trailer and match it to the pinto and the van
Yes that would make a nice picture, the van towing the pinto. I had a 76 pinto wagon with a v-6 & auto. Good transportation.
My parents had a 1978 Black ford van. I remember helping my dad shag out the inside. It had a bed a tear drop windows in the back. When it was done we drove it on a vacation from New York to the Grand Canyon. I'll never forget it, thanks for the memories.
I was waiting for the original A-Team to pop out of the van!
Jeff better hope he's paying Dave well enough not just for the quality work but the crap he goes through with these vehicles. The underwear was priceless!
I remember those! My best friend (still after 40+years)dated a guy who had one ! It was fun to Cruze around in and do things we should not have been doing 😂😂😂
The black and grey ranchero in the back of the end of the video is gorgeous! These guy's work is so amazing!
My hat is off to Dave! This man is a wizard in restoration!👍🏻😎👌🏻😀
The '70s were before my time, but I've seen some movies and cartoons where these kinds of vans are popular. It looked like quite a task, for the whole van to basically be rebuilt from the ground up. Congrats, Jeff - you seem pretty happy with it.
Scooby Doo!
Can't help but think Jay Leno would appreciate this effort...and the results.
i have big respect for people that part with the cash,to restore these gems of history. i think it is vary important to save old stuff for future generations to admire. pictures are nice ,but there's nothing like the real thing. the world thanks you guys. incredible job.
That's one amazing HOBBY here! I'm in LOVE with restoring good old things with lot's of meaning behind!
That Bruebaker Box in the background is amazing.
Charles Craig yes!!!!! I’m glad I’m not the only one that noticed! I want to know about that asap
I enjoy watching these videos that show us the personal side of Jeff.
Jeff thank you for taking the time, money and effort to respectfully restore a piece of History for all of us to enjoy,
I like both of them individually. And even more together. That is so cool you recreated the cars from that old Ford add. Drop a 302 in that Pinto. Also get the red truck in the background.
The work done on this car is so awesome !! Really well done !
Galpin does such great work. Made that van look awesome.
Jeff , that Dave is one dedicated artist in his field , he did a fantastic job of your shaggin wagon.
Jeff - Thanks for some wonderful 70's Memories
Damn your car guy is a Genius .You are soooo lucky to have a guy like that working on you cars ...
A friend of mine had the Pinto. I remember Steve Miller's Jungle Love coming from the Jensen stereo.
Ranchero, Brubaker Box, Cruising Wagon & C-Van. You have some of my favorites
Great video. Fun. Had no idea how enjoyable it would be. Nicely produced. Couldn’t stop watching until very end.
That's Walters Jock from when he played basketball in high school
"It's a crusin' van!! That's why there's underwear in it. It's a shaggin' wagon!"" Lol Hilarious
The bubble window for the van was total genius!! Love it! Nice work by all.😁👍
Walter Wagon!!!! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!! A younger Walter smokin' dope in his van and getting some action (the fro & the black chest hair was a nice touch) is just HILARIOUS!!!!!
It must be nice to be able to live your dreams. Your blessed and I'm happy you were able to purchase and restore this classic shag mobile.
thats pretty sick. 10 out of 10
That's Vantastic, Loved It.
Nice ford econoline jeff!! Havent seen one of those since 79' your guy did a beautifull job on the restoration ...."gotta love it!!"
THE UNDERWEAR HAD ME DYING
Amazing professional people wow wow wow. Men I love skilled and talented people.
Freaking amazing! Love the transformation. That’s amazing talent....and patients!
Dave is a true artist. Awesome work Dave.
Okay what a great addition and taken with a Polaroid camera.
Also that 77 Pinto wagon looks like it came straight out of a 70's movie!
sounds like it needs an overhaul/rebuild tho (go small V6 instead!)
I'd do a 289 in that thing.........go big or go home.
PaganWizard I'd do a turbo.....svo mustang swap......v8 is great too
I had a friend who put a 302 in the sawed-off regular Pinto. Fast, the fastest death trap in the neighborhood.
Dave had some *GREAT* lines!
Cracked me up. He needs to be a regular on all of your car videos.
I remember both the van and the Pacer. Someone that lived near me growing up had one I’d see it often drive by. I’m 53 years old. I remember the van craze. Slightly before me getting my license.
I had no idea jeff Dunham was a car enthusiast!! So awesome!
I remember both vehicles on the roads. My mom painted her gremlin front fenders plaid. Ah the 70s. Thanks for the video
I've never been a van guy, but that being said that is one freakin sweet ride. You really do have an awesome collection of cars, thanks for sharing them with us.
I like the way you decide which vehicle to buy, then to recreate an add is amazing. Good job Jeff.
WOW the paint work is a lotta lotta work and IS FABTASTIC the way he made the window was some awesome ingenuity ( the hood prop is the most important thing at any point of being under the hood ) the luggage rack is great new carpet was the right idea a spare tire cover is also a good idea will keep the UV from the sun from killing your spare FYI your pinto needs the cam cleaned out it is not oiling properly (rattle) the attention to detail on the van was superb if you live on the road out of a suitcase you should have something nice and a touch of nostalgia never hurts the other great things are no computer to go bad and emissions are able to be grandfathered but restoring something older is always an easter egg hunt thanks for sharing .
Love your attention to details and historical correctness, this wagon is museums quality and a great part of history of the wild years! Just love it!
I spot a Coinbase tab open at 3:12. What you trading?
Epic seventies vehicles ! I remember the Pinto wagons with the bubble windows ! My pops had a copper colored Pinto hatchback that he used as a commuter. Great job on the van restoration !
WoW! That thing looks awesome, & sounds MONSTER!
I was married to a bodyman, for 36yrs, so I appreciate the work & artistry that went into this.
Man I remember those vans. I think my first son may have started out in a van like that. Had to love the 70’s. Great video and thanks for keeping memories alive for us old folks.👍🏻👍🏻😁😁😉
So cool! I'm partial to late 50s to early 60s Impalas and Bel-airs myself. My grandparents had a 1960 Impala convertible, it was white with a red and white interior. After we got married our first three cars were a tan 1964 Impala, a turquoise 1962 Impala, and a two tone turquoise and white 1962 Bel-air, all in the late 1970s. Man I wish we still had those cars!
I'm jealous in a good way.
Thank you for keeping such an integral part of American Life alive!
Dave is AMAZING. A genius
Hello from a Scottish fan. Dave did an incredible job, the van is brilliant. You have an amazing vehicle collection Jeff.
You are so funny! Love the confidence
What a smart guy Dave is LOL
Just love the way you opted to do it in the brochure paint scheme :)
AWESOME VIDEO!!!! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE make more videos like this! I love the format, the music, the content... everything!
You missed it Jeff! When you were talking about the van and the tag, "Gas, Grass or..." you should have shown a cut from "Up In Smoke". You know, the scene where the girl and Tommy are in the van and he gets a cramp in his leg and the van starts rocking up and down, and when they come out, the crowd in the alley applauds.
that scene was so funny!
@@daltonmann4916 Yeah. I laugh so hard every time I watch it. Everybody applauding when Tommy gets out and Cheech saying, "Make way for the new king."
The funniest thing to me about that movie is that so many starched shirt types seem to think it's pro-drug use when in reality it shows what losers dopers are.
Thank you very kindly Mr D. You have betterd our lives!
I love quirky projects like this. Nice job!
Really a bat mobile?! That's so cool, imagine driving that in the street! Lol!
phantomgirl598 bet he dresses like Batman. 😂
Your cars are amazing and wierd. The best combonation😂
Thanks for sharing Jeff, this was fun. I remember right where one of those Pintos lived nearby where I grew up. Never liked the Ford van shape compared to the Chevy and Dodge but by now, this all is just cool!
Beautiful. This is now one of my fav vids on you tube.
This van just has to appear on Jay Leno's garage!
So cool! I designed and built conversion vans in Ocala Florida from 1984 until 1987 for a little company called Camelot conversions!
Shepperd November Camelot and Mark III conversions I remember both of them well!
I'm in Ocala, and if I had the money, you could restore my van.
Copper Bear Thanx . I was shop foreman.
my grandfather used to have a conversion van, was a much later one, a '98 Econoline halfback if i remember right. the company is still kicking around these days, albeit just reselling vehicles, I don't think they've done anything yet with the new Ram Promaster and Ford Transit vans yet
Tom Van Alst No , I don't remember that van converters name but they were in the Orlando area.
I would like to see the original owner's reaction to the new version of his old van.
The van looks awesome! Glad you went with the paint scheme from the ad.
Cool Jeff. You take an interest in vehicles from our past that most folks overlook. I love Walter with the fro! God Bless you.
He hit the jackpot With this 1 please keep up the great work and love the puppets jalapeno on a stick love it can't wait to see more.
That brings back memories, Outstanding job. Talent and hard work was paid off for Jeff, well deserving man.
