I love seeing builds like this. It’s so much easier to relate to someone torch cutting and welding their own brackets, slapping on a set of second hand pro-comps, and only spending big money where you have to. Not to throw any shade at the guys who just make a phone call and drop 50-100k at an engine or chassis shop, because that sure would be nice. It’s just such an unrealistic options for most of us. I can’t wait to see more of this thing. It really inspires me to work on my own junk.
Was thinking the same. All those car shows on tv , crazy expensive parts. Just not realistic , not everyone has money for their cars like jay leno and Tim Allen .
Buddy I love watching how you and your family all work together you are instilling good family values in your kids and showing that there are a few real dads left in this world thank you for the great content
I’m the wife of a car guy and never really got that into the whole process of fixing them. But I really enjoy watching you and your family! My husband and I look forward to your newest videos. Thanks so much!
I was raised in a race car shop, and have worked on cars and motorcycles forever. I've never thought about the stat. you stated about 100 rounds per second at 6,000 RPM. I had to do the math to check you out haha. That is in itself unbelievable. It's the wonder they even run... Thanks for the videos!
You are the only YT channel that I will watch over 1 hour. You excel at mixing and follow through, keeping the viewer wanting more. Glad you are slowing down on the work side. Evidently, you know what's important.
To drill through carpet easily without yarn balling up, use a pencil type soldering iron to melt through the carpet before you drill, it gives you a 'pilot hole' through the carpet, and the 'crust ring' of melted carpet keeps your drill bit from snagging the yarn.
Love your family! My wife don't watch car videos, but she knows when I'm watching Sleeperdude, because she know your kids! Can't wait to see this thing rip down the track!
I love the way you treat your family. You all treat each other with so much love and fun. I truly enjoy your videos. Love the information you share as you go through your projects. Keep it safe and keep it real.
This car is awesome. I love how you are building it. And, you all are working together to get it done. Thanks as always for including your wonderful animals on the video. Have a blessed week.
Whatever you did to that engine looks so complicated. You really know your stuff! I'm glad that I'm a Pharmacist and not a mechanic. Hopefully Ralphie is learning a little on this complicated engine. It's so nice to see you all working together as a family. Keep up the great work! 💛
Hey, thank you to you as a Health Care Professional. The human body is complicated; a car is nothing in comparison. Buy yourself a good socket set, a drain pan, an oil filter wrench, a floor jack and at least a pair of nice jack stands. Oh, and lights. Start out by doing your own oil change. Watch a few videos of how to do it, check your oil plug gasket, look for metal glitter in the oil (bad), how to dispose of the old oil. Do NOT prefill your oil filter, because if any grit gets into the clean side of the filter somehow, it will be pumped right into your bearings. Just start it up and let it idle until the oil pressure gauge comes back up, then your car is ready to play. You can do your own car repairs, and if it's not for you, you'll be able to converse more intelligently with the tech fixing your car. You can do this.
Josh and Tosh thanks for another entertaining hour. The kitten looks like it’s going to be just fine. As always Rocky is hilarious and I feel for you guys and the skunk. Have been there with a full size black lab we had. She must have sneezed for a good half hour. My daughter got into the bathtub with her and cleaned her up. Thanks again👍🇨🇦
This guy is blessed he doing what's he's like to do his family is back him up his son is his assistant and his Wife and daughter and the rest of the pets and animals make for a great team from building the cars or just silliness that proves how great patience he has and how the rest of the family loves him back he achieved the real American dream let's build my family's days one day at time very blessed indeed.
Earlier today I was thinking about you guys. I was scrolling through TH-cam thinking "I wonder what the Sleeperdude family is doing. Sure would like an update." Then 'bam', another Sleeperdude video. Made my day. Love you all. Keep up the great work. I look forward to more.
Great family involvement best example on TH-cam love the fox body platform especially the t bird so the super coupe would be my choice to work on next but truth is I'm all in on whatever you folks do.
Man that is going to be a nice car when you get done building it. You and Ralphie are doing a good job of building it. Can't wait to see when it's done. You & your family take it easy buddy.
Great video 👍 Love the decision to put momma incharge of engine hoist throttle control, like Ralph's reaction to the plastic hand high five etc.Squeeze in a barrel could be a t shirt, and momma says "cross thread is tight!"😄
You throw those shavings in a wood stove(when you have a good fire in it) and they light up like fireworks. REALLY PRETTY. It must be nice to have a kid that fits under the dash like that. VERY handy.
I'm just envious of your wife coming out to the garage at all--she is a good helper but needs to understand how that jack works. Once she knows she will be your best jack operator. Be patient with her.
I watch a lot of mechanics on youtube. Got a lot of interest in tinkering with engines/cars and you must be the most knowledgeable I've seen! Wish you could do half of everything you can. 🙏❤️
It is a big boy engine by the cast iron 426 Hemi weighs 843 lb what a tank great video thanks for doing it your whole family is going to be extremely educated on how to fix stuff that's super cool I ran a garage for many many years and taught a lot of people about cars and they appreciated that
Great video! I love seeing you working with your children in the garage, it brings back memories when I used to build mud trucks and hotrod's with my two boys and my daughter! All three of them are adults now and have children of their own and they still work on their own truck and cars! Teach the children and pour wisdom and knowledge into them now and it will be with them for the rest of their life. Get her done Sleeperdude!
Hey guys, Terry here from Ontario Canada and this may be a bit off topic related to this video, but I noticed WaWa wearing a " I love WaWa" shirt recently and that truly strikes home with us Canadians. I'm sure you are aware of the Terry Fox run for cancer up here, and the importance of the town of WaWa . Just wanted to let you know that it warmed my heart(and i'm sure millions more of us Canadians) to see that shirt. WE ALL KNOW THAT TOWN AND THE GREAT CANADA GOOSE logo. Rest in peace Mr. Fox, and Sleeper Dude and family, wear that shirt proud and honourably. As usual, Cheers from London Ontario, CANADA.
Have you ever had issues with panic attacks? If not it sucks. Y'alls videos distract me, and make me happy, y'all are spreading joy to us gear heads thank you. And dang be safe!
Just came across this. My first hotrod was a red 76 Granada with a built 302. It was my daily driver my senior year of high school in 1980. So many great memories! Thanks!
Love watching you and your familys videos.. i dont know if anybodys told you yet but you put tge flexplate on backwards..the wieghts go engine side so that the raised flats around the bolt holes are for torque converter mating surface
Looking good! Looking forward to seeing the Fairmont on the strip. I love the kitty. He/she is a noisy little one. Thank you for saving and caring for it.
That's gonna an awesome car when you get it finished! Can't wait to see what kind of times it turns in. Good job! 👍 I'm looking forward to the Metro Mite and the Mini Winnie, plus seeing the Valiant again, do some Mopar things. 😎
Awesome video Josh and family! Josh your fabrication skills are second to none. You make it looks so easy, and I know it is not. I've done my share over years, and you do really great work. I love this build, it is going to be so cool. Glad the kitty is doing well!
I helped a friend of mine with his 85 Fairmont back in 2012. It had a twin turbo 514 Ford with a powerglide and a 9 inch. Four link tube chassis car with all the lexan and big casings. He sold the car before completion.
So the engine and transmission are installed solid mounted? I figured y’all would drive it around town to go shopping for crocs and stuff. This is my favorite channel on TH-cam for sure.
I don't know why the Tiny Hand makes me laugh so hard but every time it is in one of your videos, I crack up! You guys know how to put it in certain videos so it is a surprise and super funny!
You should strap a Christmas tree to the top of one of the station wagons for Christmas. I wish I had a station wagon to do that. Especially a green LTD wagon.
Do not forget the Galaxie Wagon. Get a 302 V8 and Automatic overdrive transmission and make it in to a highway cruiser and family truckster. Good luck on all your projects. My Jeep is in the shop at Bundy Motors for new front springs to hold the weight of the snow plow better. My best wishes for the whole family.
My mom had a Zephyr back in the day, never looked at it like you do, but now I can see what you see, good lines to them. Cars looking good cant wait to see this beast run.
Keep up the good work. Been waiting to see what you would do with this one. And yes every self respecting man and mechanic needs hardware and plenty of it. Lol
You guys are awesome! All the laughs but seriousness is why I watch your channel and look forward to each video! You got great taste with color coordinating everything! I had to have all black and aluminum under the hood of the Monte SS!
Well it's dark and I'm done working on the 454 want to run but has a full problem something to do next weekend. I like everything y'all doing let's have fun a awesome family working together.
Here's my question of the week. After watching this channel for a little while now, it's pretty obvious how much you like the mechanical side of all these old cars. How did you ever end up on the body shop side of them instead?? It seems kinda crazy workin' on the whiskey dents when you really like the engines the most. BTW....as usual, another fun vid from the family.
@@Sleeperdude Alrighty then. That answers that question. I'm sure glad you like doing your own cool stuff, cause you do some pretty cool stuff that's fun to watch. BTW...it would be cool to see you buff this one out. Make that red shine like nobody's business.
Hey y'all my name is Will not Shelley, she signed this up for me but we both love the Sleeper Dude Channel. I love your content and I grew up watching my dad and my uncles working on cars and learned alot, but sir watching you with your kids just reminds me of the good ol days where i could watch my dad and learn from him, this going to your son Ralfie...Ralfie enjoy these days with your pops, learn as much as u can cause your dad really knows his stuff..like i said i use to watch and learn from my pops but sadly dementia has gotten the best of him. Keep up the great videos y'all and that kitten is lucky to have y'all as a loving family..i would name him or her Purrmont lol..Will from Tampa Fl
Wawa has done great by that kitten. I love the animals. Take care y'all. Have a great week. I'm like Tosh...2000$ I could have bought a lot of Everything.😂. Another great production. Keep faith. Keep growing. Keep safe.
...but look what your competitors spend--its hard to go fast on a budget. You seem to be getting a lot of bang for the buck. I hope she holds together.
Not too sure about your gearbox mounting through the chassis rail. It's a thin box section that's going to buckle the more you tighten it and it's going to flex the moment you start putting some torque through the box, really needs some anti crush tubes welded in the chassis rail.
Obviously your right but I think your preaching to the deaf and blind. Personally I think every corner is cut on these projects so people will comment and keep watching to see what happens. It's a way to keep your audience.
Was about to mention something myself until I seen this post. My mopars are the same and need extra metal in boxes. Also that rect tube cross member will bend without extra vertical strenthener
I have suggested to you before about using a short peice of vacuum tubing to put your plgs in. One it helps you keep from crossthreadinng the plugs and let's you turn them in or out in tight places like you have on that Chevrolet engine. Use a vacuum tubing that holds the top of the plug.
My 1 year old cat, Lily, delivered another litter of kittens today and there's one black kitten in the mix and I thought of you guys when I saw it because you're raising a beautiful black kitten that you found and saved. I was so happy to see that video. How sweet that this kitten is loved and cared for by this wonderful family. Happy Halloween 🎃🐈⬛️
He and his family are awesome they work together and he is a sharp guy knows his stuff I would like to see the fairmont station wagon going put another motor or rebuild the original. Then get the 454 going. Great show keep up the good work. Say hello to your family from Conrad in Texas. God. Bless.
I wish I had a dad like this growing up mine yelled and screamed and through tools across the garage. I would have rather eat grass then hang out with my dad as a kid
At least your dad had a tool--my dad didn't know what a tool looked like nor how a motor worked. He thought poorly of a man with tools. Wouldn't you know I am a lifelong gear head and had to learn everything myself with little help. I have a son and he has no interest in anything with a motor. Life makes little sense.
Mine wasn't smart enough to fix a pvc water pipe. He thought he was smart but was dumb as a brick. His basic knowledge of cars was 0. He was also a racist, homophobic bigot .
Tell Ralphie that I'm now 70 years old and I loved wiring stuff. Back in the day I rewired cars, wired race cars, repaired wires in cars, trucks, trailers, big rigs and I was a licensed electrician

Nice to watch others go through this process. Most people don't understand what it takes to get through this process.
Yes!!!
Yeah and it's a pain in the ass, annoying and time consuming unless you're like this guy and know what you're doing.

Awesome 😎
glad to see it coming together. gonna be fun to see it run
Thank you yes we can’t wait
Another great show and God bless y'all who donated stuff for such an awesome family channel.
It's coming together great 👍 . Great job everyone .
Will be nice to see the Ford Galaxy wagon running and that looking nice with that big block
Yes
So this is the monster my viewers were talking about! Goodness!
Can’t wait to finish it
It would be a good idea to sleeve the unibody where your transmission cross member bolts on so you don’t crush the unibody.
That’s true
That car is going to be neat, but that kitten is the cutest thing I ever saw😉👍
Thank you
Thanks for all this hi-tech wiring stuff, but you lost me when you started to open up all those boxes. Another great video. Thank you. Bill
Another great video!
Thank you
As long as ive been watching you guys .i would like a close up on how you pop the tops off the RC colas .i find it neat
That's gonna an awesome car when you get it finished! Can't wait to see what kind of times it turns in. Good job! 👍 I'm looking forward to the Metro Mite and the Mini Winnie, plus seeing the Valiant again, do some Mopar things. 😎
Man that was alot of work SD ! Bet that engine is going sound awesome and run Fast 🤯👏👐🙌
I hope so
Awesome video Josh and family! Josh your fabrication skills are second to none. You make it looks so easy, and I know it is not. I've done my share over years, and you do really great work. I love this build, it is going to be so cool. Glad the kitty is doing well!

I have suggested to you before about using a short peice of vacuum tubing to put your plgs in. One it helps you keep from crossthreadinng the plugs and let's you turn them in or out in tight places like you have on that Chevrolet engine. Use a vacuum tubing that holds the top of the plug.
10 grand is what my 87 blazer has in it.💥💨
Hahahaha
My 1 year old cat, Lily, delivered another litter of kittens today and there's one black kitten in the mix and I thought of you guys when I saw it because you're raising a beautiful black kitten that you found and saved. I was so happy to see that video. How sweet that this kitten is loved and cared for by this wonderful family. Happy Halloween 🎃🐈⬛️
I got my kid doing 2 claps and a Rick flare now too 😂
Awesome
He and his family are awesome they work together and he is a sharp guy knows his stuff I would like to see the fairmont station wagon going put another motor or rebuild the original. Then get the 454 going. Great show keep up the good work. Say hello to your family from Conrad in Texas. God. Bless.
I wish I had a dad like this growing up mine yelled and screamed and through tools across the garage. I would have rather eat grass then hang out with my dad as a kid
I hate that man.
At least your dad had a tool--my dad didn't know what a tool looked like nor how a motor worked. He thought poorly of a man with tools. Wouldn't you know I am a lifelong gear head and had to learn everything myself with little help. I have a son and he has no interest in anything with a motor. Life makes little sense.
Mine wasn't smart enough to fix a pvc water pipe. He thought he was smart but was dumb as a brick.
His basic knowledge of cars was 0.
He was also a racist, homophobic bigot .
Yes, like the old saying goes. You can't hurt my feelings I used to hold the flashlight for my daddy. lol.
my dad was a good dad....just too busy...to spend much time...with me and my brother.. its okay...I still miss him!
You did a great job buddy, awesome motor and all around build, hope it’s as fast as I think it will be!
Honestly I like Ralphie's drift wagon video better, but what do I know, LOL.
He we appreciate it
Tell Ralphie that I'm now 70 years old and I loved wiring stuff. Back in the day I rewired cars, wired race cars, repaired wires in cars, trucks, trailers, big rigs and I was a licensed electrician
Man looked like winter is coming fast everywhere! Time for the fishy flops for sure! Stay warm, stay healthy, thanks for another great video!
Yes we got them ready to go
When you were cleaning off the shavings off the intake manifold is my biggest fear that Ralfie getting them in his foot.
Yeah his mom is on to him all the time
I'm sure his feet are like leather by now
Ralphie has built in Crocs 👍😵💫
He will get an infection or a broken toe and hopefully atleast start wearing shoes.
