love from Sweden and like your Vlogs bro
Sell it for parts sorry
Try to get your money back car not worth it. Be carefull with the mustang
Fix it randy fu€k it. The content would be great!! Or weird beard it!!
Yes coukd be or head gaskets & vakues & rims , what cracked head
If you like it then you put some rings on it.😂😂
Lmao
@@bradleysnow2139 your correct it’s could be a lot of other things but more than likely with that low compression it could mostly be rings. Head gasket but if it was a head gasket coolant will be all in the engine and it will be blowing out smoke. Also, I think if it is a head gasket I believe the only way it could be is the head bolts aren’t torque down properly in a order.
uh oh oh
@@BeastlyGarage 🤣🤣🤣
This mystery needs to be solved
Squirt some oil in the cylinders that had low compression and retest. If they improve then you have ring problems.
it's worth fixing. fox body mustangs are going up in value.
foxbody’s are getting pricey. fix it love it for a while then sell it break even later on
I have an 88... I love seeing how the prices are going up. Mine unfortunately has an R Title but is clean and mostly stock. I paid $3000 back in 08.
I am a mustang guy, so I always want to see this old girl saved.
I’m a Chevy guy and I still want to see this car spinning tires
Yeah I feel y’all both on that one
I was really hoping he was going to pull the head off, but now we'll never know what the issue is
Randy, I totally get where your frustrations are. I’ve been there with my many flips. Anyways, if it’s solely about your “fans” and content is concerned. I believe this could be a great series not with just you but with the addition of weird beard as well. You guys can make it happen and the viewership would be worth it (in my opinion). Good luck and regardless...we’ll keep watching!
I say rebuild the mustang , I love the fox body and would love to have that car in a heartbeat and I'm a camaro guy and still love the fox body . I say save her and fix it .
Nope I’ll stop watching that car is the reason I’m staying
pour some oil into the cylinder, if the compression is higher, the rings should be replaced and if there are no changes, the valves are not tight
That would usually show if a loss of compression is due to rings or valves, etc., but with blow-by that bad it's obviously rings (or something else). Valves won't cause blow-by like that.
@@mrman17 only other thing could be a rubber valve seal that keeps oil from going to the combustion chamber. My money the rings wasn’t gaped properly and half ass.😏
I think you should continue to fix the mustang, just to fix one side of the engine I think it's worth fixing.
I’d love to see this car back on the road, and it would be great for the channel if you kept it for a while, modded it a little, and drove it like hell
Man I really want to see inside that engine 🤣🤣
Same!
I would love to know what is wrong with it and get it running if it's a beast on 5 can you imagine on 8? The fun you could have that?
I'm guessing that maybe they somehow leaned it out on the driver side bank, and if they were throwing all of the boost or all of the nitrous at it, then that could cause that damage.
What's the point you ask.... CONTENT MAN!!! Why else are we all here?
Apply pressure to cylinder with air compressor and listen to it where it makes hissing sound. If sound is coming from cylinder next to it then it has blown head gasket between those cylinders.
Make a series out of it! I’d love to see her live again🙏🏽
You should have checked to see if the bolts were even torqued on that head
Judging by whoever worked on it they probably didn’t torque the head in the order it should have because if it isn’t torque in order the head wouldn’t seat with the block.
You're right you never think but it's the little things like that
It would be great content to save the Mustang and bring it back to life.
@@BeastlyGarage My son's Foxbody never had rust like that.
Swamp vette is more justifiable to repair vs this rotted disgustang
i want you to rebuild it that what this channel is about saving the cars randy... I really want the engine rebuild to call the Wizard Weird Beard asap he is the King and the best brother friend one could ask for. Ok, We are waiting Randy............
Fix this car. Bring it back man. Have a whole series on it. These cars deserve to live on.
The name of the channel is Auto Auction Rebuilds. If you buy cars just to park them in a field you will have to rename the channel Samcrac.
🤣
I like this series! Please continue the build Randy!
Go into it Randy...I'd love to see the reasons it has low compression.
Do a diy sort of rebuild. New head gaskets, ball hone the 3 cylinders with new rings. Then sell it. I think this would be neat to see if it can run again without a ton of money.
I’m not a ford fan but I love making money and that car is a money maker fix it
Randy, my head agrees with your first assessment: sell it. But this is AAR; you Rebuild Auto Auction vehicles! I think a lot of us would gladly follow you along on that journey. But, ultimately, it is your call on this and you are the one who will have to live with the consequences. Whatever you decide, we will continue to follow you along. 👍
Your videos are so clear half the time I feel like I am in your shop rather than lying in my bed in scotland watching you 1st class content thank you
RANDY, KEEP IT AS PROJECT CAR. MORE CONTENT TO THE CHANNEL. THEN KEEP IT AS DAILY.
SAVE THE MUSTANG dont leave it in the feild where its gonna rot more save it
Seconded!
i'd patch it up and send it down the line
I would fix it because them body's are hard to find in my state and its a beautiful car
Randy even rusty you have a goldmine here. Fix that thing. The amount of time and money that's gone into the motor. You will have a 7k car all day long.
Rings on cyl 8 and head gasket on 5 and 6?
With the amount of aftermarket part on the engine and quality parts. I think it would be something worth fixing forsure.. the engine àlone running properly is worth what you paid for the car. I have just built one of these. And that motor has lots of money spent on it
Had a 1990 GT and these cars are fast and fun to drive. It's well worth putting the money into. Pull the motor to fix and while the motor is out, get out the welder it fix the rot. Love the fox body Stangs and this one needs saved! Keep up the great content, stay safe! From a fan in Canada.
Bring her back to life. Save the fox body she deserves it.
Piston rings. There lies the oil in the cylinders, and the extra smell of gas in the oil.
Sometimes the rings won't seat properly on a fresh motor. They probably built it, got it running and then trashed on it right away lol
that much blow-by makes this the most likely answer
He needs to get this done!! #savethefoxbody
Either pull the engine and scrap the body, while rebuilding the engine. Or just restore the hole car then flip it as a one off restoration.
@@Antonp21654 could save the body while the motor is out could fix it as well
You can fix the sketchy welds by just grinding them out and redoing them.
Having moved from Louisiana to iowa. Stay away from rust. You made the right call
hardest working utuber with a sense of humor sendit
Between 5 &6 blown head gasket, cylinder 8 has piston ring damage, from what was observed with the scope.
Yes
Vise grip garage would have a Heyday with a car that was in that good of shape.
Lmao did you see the Chevelles frame he patched ? 😂
Thanks for the video, Randy.
Don’t give up on it!! Bring it back to life!!
Fix the engine, then swap into the sn95 gt
I’d rebuild it if I were you brother, that car and engine is absolutely sick💯💯
I would love to see this car get back on the road
Keep it that car is the reason why I stay watching
Hey Randy you know I have been really busy lately but I am gonna watch this one till the end love you bud
*Paaji kaise ho??*
Mai vadhiya kake tuh das😂

@@dharmeetsinghgulati181 ye Randy Bhai ka kaam mujhe bohoth pasandh Hain!!
Me too
A leakdown test will identify where the compression is going
do a shot of oil in 8 and see what the compression does, that will show if rings are the issue or not.
Auto Auction Rebuilds rebuilding a 5.0 foxbody would be something I'd like to watch
Is this Auto Auction REBUILDS or Auto Auction QUITTER?
Solve the mystery ! Makes for great content.
Personally I think this is great content. I enjoy the investigation into figuring out what happened. I'm sure others have mentioned this since I haven't read the comments but a leak down test would probably be a good test at this point.
SOLVE THE MYSTERY!! Good content !
Set a budget and stick to it, just to get ya money back, it’s going to need gasket rebore and new pistons & rings on 3
The content of a rebuild would be great
Loving these foxbody videos!! Even though yit had all the issues, it’s great content for your channel!! It’s still a win win!!
Rebuild it!!!! U got us this far!!!
That engine in the cougar would be awesome. You have options. WB could drop that engine in one of his F100s. Good video.
Well, I would try Blue Devil and see if it comes around like the Thunderbird. If it does, it wouldn't take much to repair the strut towers.
We need the content! Please do a build series !
I vote to rebuild it. I think that car has tons of potential!
Please fix the car I'm watching so good for viewing Please fix it .
Fix it with Weird Beard!
Fix it we pay for it by watching the series 😆
Randy.. show it some love.. it'll be worth it.. I had one and when it came to selling it I made almost double what I had in it..
Also that cougar should have some of the same parts.. k member shocks ..
you can't win'em all randy , still enjoy the content thou.
Fix the engine and send it to WD for body works
You nailed it. Send it back to auction.
+1 for the fix it crowd. Foxbody's are going up in value and personally I'd love the see the head gasket content. Weird Beard certainly knows some tricks as to those rusty strut towers.
I vote you fix it..
i would do an oil compression test on those cyls
Totally agree with ya. Button it back up, get it runnin like you found it, down the road!!!
You should repair it I think there are a lot of people that know about doing rings and head gaskets but have never done that job that would appreciate seeing you do it and detail it out for us.
Fix that fox body Randy!
You have most likely broke rings . Or busted Pistons .
As Kenny Rogers sang
You got to know when to hold 'em, Know when to fold 'em,Know when to walk away, And know when to run...
Is knowin' what to throw away, And knowin' what to keep.
Time fold'em on run away from the fox body Mustang. Even if you fixed the motor or replaced the engine, then you have to fix the unibody and other body work, then more money and then $$$. No matter what you decide to do with the fox body, I know you will continue make great videos!
Hey so I im actually a previous owner of the foxbody. I owned the car for about a year and unfortunately sold it in 2014 because i needed money for school. The car just looked so familiar when i saw the thumbnail on the first video you posted at the auction yard. I did find the foxbody at the auction page which showed as sold and was able to see the VIN number to confirm it was the one I owned. Its pretty crazy watching it on youtube now! I still have the registration papers from when i owned it. But about the car, honestly it looks, runs and sounds just like when i had it so not sure if much has been done to it. The engine does look cleaner with some parts painted and the pulleys look to be replaced. I never got inside the engine so cant tell you exactly if thats how it was when i owned it. The exhaust is different though. It had rectangular tips in front of the rear tires so yeah all that smoke would just go inside haha. Ill for sure be interested if you put it back in auction though. I do auto body myself so it would be a cool project for me to have back.
Randy i hate to see you put her away man, you're literally the king of saving these hoopties! You gotta put a ring on it and pull that drivers head. Please save her man she's got potential!! #savethefoxbody
Ask your subscribers for trades and take the craziest one!!
I think that the fox body has given you a lot of valuable new knowledge, so not a total loss,,, You have given us the same knowledge and we got it for free,,, so,,,, keep up the good work Randy,, we love you,,, :-)
Randy, rebuild the 'stang and take it to the drag strip in the spring. Great 'tube content.
Good Morning My Good Bro Randy Lee Shear Of Auto Auction Rebuilds & God Bless You & All Of You're Whole Family This Afternoon & Evening Coming Up
Good morning Timbo
@@AutoAuctionRebuilds find another Mustang Gt with no motor and put that motor and trans in after you fix it sell it for more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Repair it. Watching your video, looks and sounds like rings.
In Michigan, that would be a solid car to start with. It at least has floors.
Everything there is fixable and it wants to live. Totally worth it. You say it's junk, but no. It can be saved and be a badass car.
Good morning Randy, I would like to see the mustang come back to life😃
Put that 5.0 in the Ford Tempo LOL
Or put it in the Mercury Cougar. It may make a good sleeper LOL. Whatever you decide is fine. Keep up the good work.
Put it in the sn95 gt
fix her up and do a video taking her to the drag strip. I wanna see what it can do. This car is a great content maker.
I was asking because me and my dad wanted to have a project car to work on together, no matter if it take it all apart or small repairs.
I find a junkyard motor and put it in either that or tear the head off
You can put pearls on a pig but at the end of the day it's still a pig.
Are you dating my ex?
@@mikeobrien3744 🤣🤣🤣
Randy is gonna be mad when he reads all these comments of people wanting him to build it after he done put it all back together
Content is king!! save the mustang
My heart say drop the head off whats a few hours and a gasket to find out my head says its rings and not worth the time unless you can get another foxbody cheap to make a good one between the two of them ( if me get it sold on to copart or spares parts car. Good luck
I would fix it, I would love to see it back on the road
Gidday Randy from Perth Western Australia. I have been watching your channel for some time now and just love ya videos dude. Haa the poor Mustang, oh the rust. Money pit for sure.
To fix or not to fix. Mmmm that's the million dollar question.
Keep it do it you no you can never give up cheers mate
