I really enjoy your channel. I'm a retired Family Pastor and what you are doing with your kids is to be commended. Some of the best times I had with my kids was working on cars. Now I get to see them do the same. I can see your Faith without you preaching. Keep passing your passions on.
I hope my girlfriend and I can have a family like yours some day. You can tell a lot about a person with how they treat their kids and animals, and you treat them extremely well. Every video is entertaining and educational. Thank you.
I love how he has all his kids involved with getting these old cars running again. They are learning history of once was with these cars & how easy it was to work on them and it's something for them to look back at when they get older & good times and memories. Family bonding it's great to see that 😊
That's funny, at 10:08 it is in time lapse, you can see the white truck back in, it's in the background, the next thing you see is every animal in the county apparently running to the truck. Not sure if it was food or Marge but they were really wanting what was in that truck lol.
Safe to say that this is the ONLY video on the tube where you’ll see an old Rambler (with hardwood floors) chickens, a pig named Va-enya (sp?) and a billy goat. 😂 Love the videos!!
We love your channel & how you open the bottle on the bottom of your sandal. I tried repeatedly with no success. Thank you for sharing. Cheers from California.
what you removed was primer. Primer is not chemical resistant. The blue is top coat. The top coat is chemical resistant. That's why the brown stripped and the blue didn't. You could have washed the brown primer off with Acetone much faster. lol.
i,ve been wanting a 1959 rambler from the time i was a kid had a couple of rambers back then and miss them they were and are a tuff little car they will hole up very well o ps i,m 60 now
You should use a product called Penetrol. It's used in oil based paints to allow it to flow. Back her into the garage, clean the surface then use a sponge to put it on and let it dry! It Should seal the metal/paint and keep the finish that you want. Follow all safety precautions.
Try taking the paint off with the pressure washer. I have used pressure to take off regular paint remover and it works very well and down in the cracks.
Good work. I use Dad's paint remover. Removes varnish too. Methyl ethyl ketone works well also. I've seen it eat the paint off several pieces of construction equipment in my younger days.
ya i,ve owned about 8 or 10 ramblers back in the day and back then i was still young and i would drive fast and i,d be hard on my old cars and i loved it when i would get a rambler as i could drive it hard put it up wet and it would hold the the hard driving very well and every one that i had were all the same way just tuff ass litle cars but also that why i,m wanting to buy yours if you would sell to i already know a lot about them o what a gem you do have there i would love to restore it back to drive on the road once again please get with on this is you still have it and i do live in tn as well here baxter tn
👍👍👍 Your videos are awesome. Especially the thunderbird series. These are the two cars that remind me of my high school years. Driving an SC 5 speed when they were new and a kid was so rememberable, great fun cars. Yet the turbo 5 speed I always thought was faster, as the turbo came on so strong. Thank you
Never thought about using a scotch brite pad to take paint off a vehicle you da man. I enjoy your videos the old Rambler is coming along nicely. Yeah if that car were mine I would keep it and have the whole vehicle sprayed with bed liner the good stuff but if you ever wanted to paint it I guess it would be quite a job getting the bed liner off the car. .
Funny my Aunt that turned 85 hand painted her 57 Plymouth with house paint and a brush. At least later down the road when she bought her 59 Studebaker Lark VI she left it that original I think it was called salmon I call it pink.
My original thought :Maybe you should have done it like a deck and power wash after time with the easy off. After watching the scrub washing I was impressed
Oven cleaner is also very good for removing anodizing, and aluminum coatings in general. In the case of aluminum coatings, at least. Never tried it on paint or coatings meant for steel :P
@@ronyoutu Usually you would use it to get back down to bare aluminum, and the thing is if you leave it on longer, it creates scale and oxide.. So I would maybe use it if you were trying to refinish the scaled and oxidized part maybe on a rag and rub it really well? It might rub off some of the existing stuff. But you'd have to neutralize it ASAP. Might work better than what I do which is sand "close enough to the original finish" and then respray lol, worth a shot, if you aren't worried about rolling the dice. But definitely don't just use a ton of it and leave it on, that wouldn't help much
We used a product called "Tal-Strip" to get my buddy's '64 Econoline van down to bare metal in about a day. Two guys, scrapers, and eventually palm sanders for that nice swirly metal patina!
I'm no expert but I would have used 800 wet and dry sandpaper. Then go to maybe 1200. Used the hose and some running water. I've never had any luck with paint stripper (only on plastic paint.). Cheers 🥂
Man that was a good video man. I didn't know oven clean would remove paint like that. You definitely got to work out with this. I take it that one arm and shoulder is going to be stronger than the other. I was surprised about the results. It turned out good man. Your son was funny going to run away when you tried to open up the RC Cola. He's willing to drink it but not get a little bit on him. " LOL " good video buddy thank you for sure.
I used oven cleaner on some ancient furniture that may have had a nitro finish that was stained over a million years of cigarettes and hand oils to remove just the top layer of the finish and keep as much as possible still on. It's delicate work but it held up after a few years so no long lasting damage to the remaining finish and looks a lot cleaner lol
@@Sleeperdude Yeah! I was surprised lol kind of expected it to just take it off entirely but luckily it's not as aggressive as normal paint thinner or lacquer thinner. Cool stuff
ya i know what i know about old car i learned it from may dad by helping him when i was a kid just work with and helping him out on his cars and by the time i was old enuff to drive it turned around and it was my dad helping me on my car projects but i know what i know about life came from my dad
Nash and Rambler used a Ziebart Rust dipped coating process on the lower quarter panels and doors, fenders because of massive salt damage or cheap metal. I had a 59 Nash Metropolitan which had this coating. Metal strip works good but must be chiseled off. On my car, the coating only went half way up!
I use oven cleaner to remove grease and oil , strip paint off aluminum parts . Spray wait about 30 minutes and pressure wash it .never tried it on body parts.
Never have seen anyone use oven cleaner to remove paint but obviously it does sort of work. Maybe not as good as paint stripper but still in a pinch. I use oven cleaner instead of degreaser to clean grease off engines that does work real well.
I have used Easy-Off oven cleaner to strip paint off of model cars. I usually allow it to sit over-night. I would recommend that you park it in the shade, buy a cheap "Drop cloth" and cover the car with it after applying a full coat of oven cleaner. Your problem is that you allow it to dry and then it becomes useless. I'll continue to watch to see how it works. Good luck.
Been there…..do not envy you guys at all….. gunna have to sand down the primer that’s been on my car since a week after I bought it…then re primer the whole car then have a buddy paint it… high power pressure washer will work but only after whatever you are housing soaked into the old paint
Enamel cross links between molecules. Lacquer does not, it relies on solvent evaporation to leave the solids where ever they landed. That was a good candidate for sanding. Would have produced a really cool patina as you break through in some spots and not in others. Both paint stripper and oven cleaners have been severely neutered over the years. They all need to be covered with cellophane to slow solvent evaporation. The primer you may as well get five gallons of lacquer thinner and just wipe the primer off.
I have to laugh…🤣. I was extremely curious to see what would happen myself, but I’m thinking a sander would have been quicker. Oh well, you don’t know if you don’t try 😊
You might try a heat gun or a hair dryer to make the oven cleaner work faster? I've never used oven cleaner for paint remover but looks like it was a good idea 👍💡
Hola muy bonito ese Nash del 59 estupendo ,tengo uno igual a ese recido en Cuba y he estado en Miami y he buscado un parabrisa delantero y no lo he encontrado.me pudieran decir dónde pudiera estar saludos desde cuba en Pinar del Rio
Can only guess your hoping to add patina over both the factory paint and the hack job someone did on the rear end. Chemical stripping on any auto is a pain since your having to deal with broad areas unlike an antique chair which has relief and mouldings to work around, but any chemical will damage old furniture and its value. Not gonna suggest what will work best, since rat rods are something I sort of admire after seeing some cool things done with body guys who knew how to do a suede finish properly. Just hope you get where you wanna be some sunny day. Best wishes.
I’m probably crazy saying this but I think a 6.0 LS and a 4L80E and a ford 9” with a chrome tubular straight axle and she would be very cool retro gasser dragster.
When stripping paint, especially when using mild stripper like oven cleaner. Add some fairy liquid/ liquid soap to the water you wet the car with. This removes the “surface tension” from the water. This then enables the stripper to bite into the paint better. Making it easier to remove the paint! Hope this helps bud!! Love this old car! And it’s 6 pot flathead!!

I am watching this video three years on... did you eventually get the car finished? Looks like and interesting vehicle. Yes hosing does the trick.. to clean the inside of an oven would involve washing the product off with water. How many aerosol cans did you use?... must've been an expensive procedure? Good job.

I have enjoyed watching you and your family. But, I would actually like to see you complete a car project. Rather than just getting them running. And going to the next. Thank you!

Easy baked oven in the trunk? Random Orbital Sander? I get it. Demonstrating something new and the fact that it is brushed on.

Согласен. Очень ремонтопригодные автомобили.
Thank you
Aircraft stripper will that off in a matter of minutes brush on with paint brush don't get on skin because it burns
Old guy opinion here, patina is a french word that translates to "needs a paint job"
It's only original once
@@nikonordman7624 is rust original?
You may be right but she was already ruff
Its so great to see you out there with your son having a good time
Thank you
Also shows how you were raised…kudos to mom and dad.
Love this Channel. Its family powered

That’s funny
You are living the life brother, beautiful family. I really commend that.
Thank you
The back looks good for a patina job
Ok thanks
You got a grate little helper. I did the same kind of stuff with my kids
Thank you he’s a good boy
So much to love about this channel. But ROCKY and the other animals keeps me coming back.
Thanks
Safe to say that this is the ONLY video on the tube where you’ll see an old Rambler (with hardwood floors) chickens, a pig named Va-enya (sp?) and a billy goat. 😂 Love the videos!!
That’s funny thank you
So happy to see Rockies first Vaina! Glad you got it on the video.
Yes thank you
*Мне очень нравится фоновая музыка. Она приятная и не мешает просмотру. Отличный канал! С удовольствием смотрю, как вы оживляете старые авто.* 👍🏻🤗
The chickens are jealous that Rocky gets all the camera time and decided to join in.
😊👍🏻
Yeah your right
Like your Rambler Ralph. I used to own a 1966.
Ok cool thanks
That Rambler American is looking amazing with the primer gone!!!!
Thank you
Rockies eyes reflect purple..aww😘

You should be sponsored by the Vienna sausage party!
For sure
Love that look. The aged or patina look is pretty cool. I will try the oven cleaner trick.
Awesome thank you
I really would love to see you totally restore this car you would have a little Jem make it like new this would be a car show favorite
Nicely aligned rear end 😂

Yo dude I reckon give the old paint a spin up with a da to give a wicked patina finish. Great vid👍
Yeah sounds good thank you
They make a brown and a grey scrub pad that’s is coarser then the green pads

Looks great!!!! a little help from the pressure washer may take care of the rest 🤷♂️
Yeah it probably would

when you spray this stuff on....and come back in the morning....it will still...look like a rambler!
Really a pretty decent body on that car.
Yeah the outside is
Sleeperdude needs a gallon of clean strip from walmart. Only problem is I think a gallon of stripper may coast more then the car is worth. :-)
Probably
The front end might have been from another car. Just a guess as its so diffrent from the rest. 2x👍 for the oven cleaner.
Thank you
Why the heck didn't Nash/Rambler/AMC/Kelvinator make the rear axle line up with the wheelwells?
I’m not sure
That back end was primer applied to keep it from rusting any further
Ok thanks

I’m probably crazy saying this but I think a 6.0 LS and a 4L80E and a ford 9” with a chrome tubular straight axle and she would be very cool retro gasser dragster.
When stripping paint, especially when using mild stripper like oven cleaner. Add some fairy liquid/ liquid soap to the water you wet the car with. This removes the “surface tension” from the water. This then enables the stripper to bite into the paint better. Making it easier to remove the paint!
Hope this helps bud!!
Love this old car! And it’s 6 pot flathead!!
Ok thank you
Easy-Off works fine on plastic model cars but on metal, I'd reach for Zip-Strip* or something similar.
I use methylene chloride, starts instantly. Paint wrinkles as it runs down the sides. I keep about a inch of water on top to keep the highly volatile liquid from evaporating.
Ok thanks
It made A awesome patina
Yes thank you
