You're right about the wipers... when I was a little kid in the early 1960's my dad fixed the wipers on our 57 Chevy and we had the only one that had the wipers going the same direction instead of together at the center, then apart. Don't know how he did that. Still remember it from then.
Got to get pink voltwagon and black Mercedes. They odor you. Josh you did good. I am in transition trying to feel comfortable finding him. I have done it my way forever. What gets a guy over the hump to feel comfortable in a uncomfortable world. Changes hurt I am uncomfortable. I did it my own way. How do you take that first step.
YES! we need station wagons back in our lives! One of the biggest mistakes America ever made was stopping production of the wagon! It truly saddens me that you can't go to the car lot and pick one up for the family anymore😭
Maybe one day he'll come revive my 87 Buick estate bout the only guy I would sale it to. When he broke down in the RV I was about ready to get her started drive to South Dakota and trading for the motorcycle just temporarily so he could continue on and come back to the RV. I tried to scrape up as much cash as I could when I saw the RV go up for sale for $3,500 on the Craigslist. I want to real bad get her back to him some way somehow do some horse trading or something. I said I'm almost every video but these little clips back into Tennessee are the closest thing I got to being home these days
You're a nice example of the American family spending time together and living the moment with what they have, much respect to you ! Peace from France 👍
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale, a tale of a rainy trip. That started from the goat farm aboard this Mercury ship. The mate was a mighty sailing boy, the skipper brave and sure. Four passengers set out that day, for a one hour tour. a one hour tour. The weather started getting rough, the wiper motion stopped, If not for the courage of the fearless crew, the Zephyr would be lost, the Zephyr would be lost.... So this is the tale of our castaways, they're here for a long, long time. They'll have to make the best of things, it's an uphill climb !
Love how you and the wife make your family the first priority. From your pa, dad, you/wife, and kids are all so loving and respectful towards each other. Tell Ralphie to snap that wrist on the basketball shot. Keep up the great work on the content
"Been driving junk for 18 years" - it's the family activity: Collabrative creativity, fixing things on the fly - what an education for the kids. (I'm envious.) Curves "so tight you meet yourself coming the other way". "Never looks as steep on video..." But I think my ears popped, too - am I getting to involved in your videos?! Seems that you are indeed living your best lives since Josh quit his job. So happy for you all.
I have quite a few channels that I follow religiously. But SLEEPERDUDE IS MY FAVORITE!!! I’m a father of 7 and grandfather of 5 and the family dynamics of your channel is what this country is missing. Keep it up because you are going to be a very large channel before long
13:26 the reason it pops is because the potentiometer inside contacts are dirty. If you clean that it won't make the pop sounds anymore and it will smoothly change volume and frequency! Handy for fixing some heaters or AC units too if they are using a potentiometer
I went back and watched your old videos. Comparing them to your more recent ones, you seem so much happier and relaxed. The degree of family involvement increasing is very noticeable. Very happy for you and your family. Love the videos.
That was a very entertaining trip!!! Sweet vehicles!!! Happy to see the zephyr made the trip without breaking down!!! Loved seeing the kids passed out in back!!!
That Zephyr would look great totally restored as is. No interior or body work needed. A little rust repair on back underside of the trunk lid and paint and she's done! And you can tell folks that little 6 cylinder is a real powerhouse because you did "donuts" in it with the whole family in the car at Pigeon Forge.... 😁🍩 😁🍩
My father passed away a long time ago but he was born in Tennessee and his way of parenting was very similar to yours. Sarcastic wisecracks, always teasing us but being sweet at the same time. I love it!!! This reminds me of my childhood. ❤❤❤
@@jeremybreinig4782 Thats unfortunately true. With a select few you might get lucky and could pull off a 40 year stretch, but it would be a very very select few.
@@jeremybreinig4782 I think cars today will last 40 easily. Back then a car would be rusted out in ten years easy. At least today a 10 yo car can be like new. Problem is, people throw away perfectly good cars because they’re tired of an old model. They don’t fix or rebuild motors anymore. Remember when Sears and Montgomery wards had dozens of garage doors fixing cars?
@@IcelanderUSer todays cars dont rust as much but to do motor or trans takes tools most people dont have like 5k Doller scan tools just to bleed brakes on my 2011 impala
Yes, yes, yes, bring back the station wagon with the luggage rack on the roof. I have very fond memories of us kids playing in the back. A traveling playroom.
The part when you used the USB cables to connect the wipers had me spitting out my drink. I don't think I laughed that loud at anything else in the last month. A big thanks 🙏 for helping me de-stress from the the world news👍You guys Rock!
The zip tie holding the wiper together brought back so many memories. My friend had a 84 camaro and there were body panels held on by zip ties. 🤣 Great trip guys!
Love your vids,your a coool dude! I learned(totally by accident) that an intermittant flashing,alternator/battery light can be as simple as a bad battery connection.
Awesome! Ive never been over there for the car shows. Havent been in nearly 20 years period. I could live up there in the mountains though. Out in the country part anyway. It was great to see Papaw again. Glad he's doin good.
Last time I had a linkage failure like that on the wipers, I tore part out a plastic sack and wrapped that round the spike the arm pushed onto before reseating the arm. It worked for a few days until the new linkage arrived
SleeperDude and family! On the road again. Tucked together in The Z7. When you take your family. A long test drive will show those things that needed more attention. Braking down along the road. Can be a little unsafe. Continue to put family safety first. I just love this TH-cam Channel. It's the 💣! Just stay the way you all are. Now on with the Show. Shawn.
I’m soon to be homeless and I can watch your videos and all my worries disappear, thank y’all for the amazing videos and sharing your beautiful family with me. Travel safe and love, hugs and prayers to y’all ♥️🙏🏼❣️
Just another Family Adventure … it was great not only seeing some vehicles of my past but the Family expressions and delight in seeing those vehicles …. AND you made it back and forth without 🥴😳🫣🙈😵😵💫🤐⛽️…. great job on this video 👍
This is my new favorite channel. I look forward to new videos because your content is genuine. You have an amazing family, and you are a terrific dad. If you ever decide to come to southeast Missouri, I hope my family can meet you and your family.
After the Medic truck you showed a 75 White Caprice and next to it was a 68 Ford Fairlane Convertible that was Black with a White Top. I had a 68 green 2 door hardtop in 82.
This video was great. Those wipers....I was cracking up. Y'all definitely make a good team. I was raised and still live near Winston-Salem NC, the home off Krispy Kreme doughnuts. They are the best ever. My best friend and I will be in Pigeon forge in a few weeks. Wish we could have met you. Love your family and videos. God bless you.
Loved all the Fords of course, that Starliner was a beauty! I'm 62 yrs old and I don't recall ever seeing a Falcon Police car but that was cool. And that Falcon wagon with the wood grain trim was very nice. Thanks for sharing 😎 ✌️
My oldest sister bought a brand new 1989 mustang GT, back in the end of 1988! Beautiful freaking car, and actually pretty dang gone fun to drive for it to only have 248HP from the factory. Now Georgia State Patrol had them some back then, that were running around with a SSP that were a bit more aggressive. Great video thanks for sharing. Alternator was probably overcharging, wich is why the dummy light quit flashing whenever you turned on your headlights.
Loved meeting y’all at Shades! Driving by and saw the Zephyr and then couldn’t believe it was you guys getting out!! So excited we made the video. Lol. It’s awesome the way the whole family is part of the business. Love that you are sharing your love of cars with the kids and how they interact with it all. Awesome family. Can’t wait for future videos. God bless!!!
Awesome road trip. Rocky missing y'all. I love your channel and amazing family. Be safe 😁. Thank you for my sleeperdude t shirt. Always in prayer and love. 😘. Homer From west Virginia 💕
Thank you, thank you , thank you. Your family is by far the most enjoyable thing I’ve seen on You Tube. I’ve played the wiper game before with an old car I had, and yup I married the girl. We will celebrate 48 years of marital bliss this year and 50 years of being together. Happy to see you got yourself a sponsor ( what took them so long ) hopefully more will follow.👍👍🇨🇦
Great episode! I had a '63 Rambler with lousy rings, so I had to reach under the dash and work the wipers by hand 😂 but your usb charge cord seasaw takes the cake 🎂
I did a trip from Melbourne to Adelaide in a mate's '63 Holden which was built from parts found in paddocks and had to string up the wipers to get them to work. Hilariously good times.
Hot Krispy Kreams are definitely on my bucket list Josh 👌🏻. Never knew that windshield wiper trick really worked until now , looked a great family day out guys .
The flooding issue. The boiling point of ethanol gas is173 degrees and the boiling point of non ethanol gas is over 300 degrees. When you stop the car(at Hardy's for example) the heat from the engine is boiling the fuel in the bowl and forcing it into the cylinders. So when you are done eating and try to start the car, it is flooded. Put a 3/4 or 1 inch phenolic spacer under the carb to isolate it from the engine heat. A lot of pre Ethanol vehicles have this issue. My 1969 F100 was doing this and the phenolic spacer fixed it.
Oh GOODIE! Another Sleeper dude and family! I'm commenting before I watch so I can get an an answer if I'm blessed. Love y'all! Blessings on ya! From the 86 year old guy who owns Thrif-T body & paint! Have to try that AG1....sounds healthy.
my girl friend and i use to go there alot befor she died from cancer it is a great fun place for kids of all ages. im glad you and your family had a good time with no car trouble. keep up the good job on you tube.
What a good family 👪. Well behaved smart kids. 👏 thanks for taking me to Tennessee with you. I enjoyed the trip. Go buy that mark 7 now lol. Im a lincoln and packard guy.
Love Pigeon Forge. Cades Cove is beautiful too. So much wildlife to see. Take the kids there around Thanksgiving and you'll see deer in huge herds and the bucks in rut butting heads etc. the deer will eat right out of your hands even in the car. There's a really old church there and a nice old 2 story log cabin. And there's all the stuff in town of course. Slick track gokarts, laser tag, bungie jumping, that skydiving simulator, helicopter rides .
I’ve seen an Old couple on the freeway, doing this with a string a Taunus, doing 100km/h and wife doing the wipers from here side, with yarn! Epic, and good thinking!
Awesome family, awesome road trip. You talk about the perfect family sedan and your dad is driving one! The Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis/Town Car is the last of the great American sedans. I have an 08 Crown Vic LX (not an X-cop car) that I use mainly for road trips. And there are still plenty of them around. They're not just for racing at Cletus and Cars events. I think you need to get one!
The Teal colored Falcon is a 1960 and next to it is Gold with white top 1963 Impala. Next I Believe is a Gold 80's model Impala and after it looks a a Black 73 Olds Cutlass. I can't tell what the red car after it is but the truck looks like around a 63 or 64 Ford PU
The first Nova you saw, looked just like the one my Granny had. I learned how to paint a car in that one. My Dad was a body man. I was 7 or 8. She drove in from K.C to Philly burbs. (where i grew up) So that was 73 i guess. Coulda been 72 maybe. Anyway, the paint of the day was lacquer. Wet Sand between Every coat. We did 17 coats. Sand , wash, wipe, wipe again with spirits, spray. I wasn't allowed to spray much but he did let me get some strokes in. Brings back fond memories. Wonder how that Dart Wagon would have done. Thank you for taking us along
Iroc pace car spotted at 1:03:23. Some sweet Cadillacs. Liked the clean transam, just like mine except this one was all shiny. The orange truck next to all 50s trucks in the beginning. 70s camaros. so many cool cars I can't pick a favorite. Awesome video again! Hoping to see more of your thunderbirds.
What an awesome video Josh! So much fun watching the kids having so much fun! Really beautiful cars, great sights and sounds, great drives down the strip, thanks for taking us along! You all looked so nice in the old western outfits. Such a beautiful family!
All those cars & trucks from a bygone time - fantastic!! The whole Sleeperdude family are doing great things reviving the old cars. Old does not mean obsolete and ready for the crushers, it means quality that was meant to last! The current crop of new vehicles will never last as long as the old cars, the new cars are made for a dollar, with built-in obsolescence. Keep up the good work, fantastic videos and enjoying life 👍.
I feel like I was at the car show with you guys,the car was deffinately happy to go. All the family has a favourite and nobody was bored. A perfect video. Maybe it’s time to do a full restoration to win a car show.
I appreciated your comments on the Crown Victoria and station wagons. Both are great vehicles and best when combined. I must confess that I am prejudiced since I own a 1987 Ford Crown Victoria Wagon, a 1991 Crown Victoria Wagon and most recently a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis LS 50th Anniversary Edition with only 72,000.0 miles. This last purchase fits with your desire to bring back the American Sedan. I will be sending you photos shortly. Enjoyed this video with your family and the Go - Kart race with your Dad and the kids. Keep fixing up your Zephyr !
These booths were made for walking!!!! . This family was made for Loving ❤️ 😍. What an amazing video thanks for sharing 👌 👍 😀 ❤️. Unanswered prayers 🙏 at end was A1
Fixing a windshield wiper with a charging cord from a cell phone lol Now I have seen it all. Tell your wifey she looks beautiful without makeup. Looks like you had a lot of fun and the car really didn't break down because of the engine so it really was a good trip. Thanks for taking us along.
The children will never forget those little things like the wipers,,such awesome parents,,awesome children,, awesome video

The flooding issue. The boiling point of ethanol gas is173 degrees and the boiling point of non ethanol gas is over 300 degrees. When you stop the car(at Hardy's for example) the heat from the engine is boiling the fuel in the bowl and forcing it into the cylinders. So when you are done eating and try to start the car, it is flooded. Put a 3/4 or 1 inch phenolic spacer under the carb to isolate it from the engine heat. A lot of pre Ethanol vehicles have this issue. My 1969 F100 was doing this and the phenolic spacer fixed it.

I have an 08 Crown Vic LX (not an X-cop car) that I use mainly for road trips. And there are still plenty of them around. They're not just for racing at Cletus and Cars events. I think you need to get one!
Josh the race with the kids and grand dad was hilarious. Absolutely classic. What a blast!!!! Great job with the content man.
Looks like you had fun. Your dad and gramps are great.
Nice road trip, can’t believe the belts & hoses made the trip along with the heater core & charging system. True satisfying video trip.
Squeezie!!! "Paint it PINK” "Ice Cream Shop” exactly what my daughter would say. Great video y’all!
Yes!!!!!
The Teal colored Falcon is a 1960 and next to it is Gold with white top 1963 Impala. Next I Believe is a Gold 80's model Impala and after it looks a a Black 73 Olds Cutlass. I can't tell what the red car after it is but the truck looks like around a 63 or 64 Ford PU
Thaaannkssss for another great fun family video!! All the best! God bless! Now I’m hankering for KK!!
Thank you for watching
The first Nova you saw, looked just like the one my Granny had. I learned how to paint a car in that one. My Dad was a body man. I was 7 or 8. She drove in from K.C to Philly burbs. (where i grew up) So that was 73 i guess. Coulda been 72 maybe. Anyway, the paint of the day was lacquer. Wet Sand between Every coat. We did 17 coats. Sand , wash, wipe, wipe again with spirits, spray. I wasn't allowed to spray much but he did let me get some strokes in. Brings back fond memories. Wonder how that Dart Wagon would have done. Thank you for taking us along
Just watched this video. Very entertaining! Great family time and some awesome cars!
Loved it!
the little Blue Crossly is sharp but so it the gold 1969 Impala 4 door next to it.
Love the family outten. Keep the videos coming.
Iroc pace car spotted at 1:03:23. Some sweet Cadillacs. Liked the clean transam, just like mine except this one was all shiny. The orange truck next to all 50s trucks in the beginning. 70s camaros. so many cool cars I can't pick a favorite.
Awesome video again! Hoping to see more of your thunderbirds.
Good choices
The radio volume pot needs a spray of D5 Deoxit. Or you can use WD-40 in a pinch.. to clear up the static when you adjust the volume.
Ok thanks for letting me know
Great job fixing the wiper. Shout out to a fan ! 💛
Such a awesome video just made my day thank you Josh and Family. Also nice wiper blade fix lol. Next video roll on can't wait.
Awesome car ! Didnt let you down except window wiper but still ! 😁
Yeah it’s a good one
What an awesome video Josh! So much fun watching the kids having so much fun! Really beautiful cars, great sights and sounds, great drives down the strip, thanks for taking us along! You all looked so nice in the old western outfits. Such a beautiful family!
Thank you
All those cars & trucks from a bygone time - fantastic!! The whole Sleeperdude family are doing great things reviving the old cars. Old does not mean obsolete and ready for the crushers, it means quality that was meant to last! The current crop of new vehicles will never last as long as the old cars, the new cars are made for a dollar, with built-in obsolescence. Keep up the good work, fantastic videos and enjoying life 👍.
Thank you we appreciate it
I feel like I was at the car show with you guys,the car was deffinately happy to go.
All the family has a favourite and nobody was bored.
A perfect video.
Maybe it’s time to do a full restoration to win a car show.
I appreciated your comments on the Crown Victoria and station wagons. Both are great vehicles and best when combined. I must confess that I am prejudiced since I own a 1987 Ford Crown Victoria Wagon, a 1991 Crown Victoria Wagon and most recently a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis LS 50th Anniversary Edition with only 72,000.0 miles. This last purchase fits with your desire to bring back the American Sedan. I will be sending you photos shortly. Enjoyed this video with your family and the Go - Kart race with your Dad and the kids. Keep fixing up your Zephyr !
I absolutely loved coming along with you all it was a total blast guys can’t wait till the next one
These booths were made for walking!!!! . This family was made for Loving ❤️ 😍. What an amazing video thanks for sharing 👌 👍 😀 ❤️. Unanswered prayers 🙏 at end was A1
Fixing a windshield wiper with a charging cord from a cell phone lol Now I have seen it all. Tell your wifey she looks beautiful without makeup. Looks like you had a lot of fun and the car really didn't break down because of the engine so it really was a good trip. Thanks for taking us along.
Thank you I’m glad you liked it
Thanks for including us in your video. It was great getting to hang out with you'll for a while.
