The whole thing about selling out is that over the years, I've been watching TH-camrs growing and totally changing from their roots and the reason why i started watching them in the first place. Everyone loves seeing an underdog succeeding in life, but we hate seeing them become better off then we are because deep down, they're all envious of that success. And subscribers feel like they are somehow 100% responsible for it! A kind of "You wouldn't be where you are today if it weren't for us watching you all the time! How dare you change your life/job/way you do things on me like that!" I swear, some folk make me sick. You and your family deserve all the love and support and i do wish you get your 40x60 shop with tons of lifts! But please never lose your awesome personality ❤️
You mean like Derrick of VGG? I wouldnt want to drive an hour away to get to multiple shops either along with living in that cold ass environment, so thats good on him for moving and getting set up proper like. I have been watching him for a long time now and the racing stuff just kinda lost me .. he went from having adventures, to just being a parts changer and racing, that's not all that fun after the first 20 of the same thing, anymore I find it hard to stomach it as his personality is changing as well. he just doesn't seem to bring the thunder as much as he used to . just my opinion.
@@mjp5318 I can't fault Derek either, he's living his dream. I'm not a race fan but he is so I don't mind if he spends time doing what he enjoys. I been watching VGG for years also and I don't notice many differences in Derek. He loves his family and loves what he does. Sorry you see a difference. I guess that's what makes the world go round.
sometimes change is good sometimes it aint but people gotta understand this is a paying job you cant always be yourself sometimes you gotta fake it so the shitty boss stays happy some youtubers do get famous and rich then become dicks but thats life sometimes dont judge every youtuber by one youtubers personality
@@mjp5318 vgg never changed at all he added extra content so he could broaden his viewership he still does will it runs and will it make it so many miles home and still has all the same goofy catchprases you just got too caught up in one part of the channel you forgot the rest
Can't find the Chevy truck video on my phone but anyway the steering column has a small rod that goes from the key to a switch called neutral safety switch so you don't accidentally kill yourself
Just found you on you tube and after listening to you for about two minutes I subscribed to your videos. I am a 76 year young lady and I absolutely love your accent and humor. My daddy was a mechanic and I was his little helper so I love mechanics. Keep up the good work.
Old Pontiacs can't die. General motors screwed up when they dumped Pontiac. I would love to see more of the 58. And I'm happy for you wanting to get a better shop and making a good living. And everyone's family is deserving of a better life.👍
@@prevost8686 GM has screwed up a lot and dumping Pontiac was one of them. Another was telling the consumer what they want and not listening to us the consumer. I guess all automotive companies are guilty of that to a point.
Omg I’ve been looking for someone to dig one of these up forever. My dad had one when I was 15 and I begged him to hold onto it till I turned 16 but he sold it! Bad daddie! That car was pristine. Looked like it just rolled off the assembly line. I have seen very few since, and that was 50 yrs ago. Do it up good puddin!
Thanks for the laughs. You remind me of the guys I ran with in the 80's. Only thing missing is a cooler full of beer and being 45 minutes late to something important. We made it home 10 miles once with the dog house removed in a van pouring gas in the carb out of empty beer cans.
That's exactly it! I don't care if Puddin is in a 100,000 sq ft state of the art complex. As long as he keeps pullin sweet cars out of the graveyard, and gets them running, then I'm in.
Dude I will be happy to say , I remember when he worked on that crooked Oklahoma concrete. Almost at 100k buddy. You are one of the best shows on TH-cam
I’ve been watching for months now and I’ll be watching years from now as long you keep doing puddin stuff, saying puddin things, and taking care of that family of yours. The tools/shop don’t make the man and you and your family make this channel what it is and I enjoy the hell out of ya. Thanks.
I love that you have your family’s interest at heart! That’s not selling out! Having a nicer shop is not selling out, etc..Changing the kind of things you do because you think it’s going to make you fancier for the masses might be considered selling out? Stay down to earth and keep on doing the things that make you fun to watch and you will stay successful. Love this car! Thanks!
I think a lot of people see "selling out" as how bigger TH-camrs spend money on projects. I don't mind Puddin getting more cars, bigger house, big shop, more money for the family. That's all cool. But we like the Puddin who uses his cutoff wheel instead of plasma cutter to be relatable. As long as he's doing things the average guy can relate to or reasonably accomplish, then he's being true to himself.
To anyone who says a 4 door is a parts car, I say this: It's a parts car until you have kids and don't want them kicking the snot out of the interior of your nice 2 door trying to get in and out of the 2 door. I'm glad to see you saving this old car man, she's sweet!
@@nicolatesla768 I've usually prefered the 4 door cars, it's something different, but in the 40's, 50's, and 60's the 4 doors usualy looked as good as the 2 door variation.
I loved the video. I brought back to life a 1972 Pontiac Lemans 2 door hardtop. It is a Z code California car that has not even one rust spot on it anywhere. It had a blown intake gasket and a clogged radiator. I now drive it every single day, everywhere I go. It just turned 89,000 miles. I will put it up when it starts to snow.
Goals are good to have. Looks like you are on your way to reaching yours. Keep up the great work. Wish you all the luck. Great to see a man tryin to better his family.
Love those old Pontiacs! I currently have 8 of them! And over the last 50 years I have owned literally hundreds of them since I started dragging them home in the early 70's and getting them running and safe to drive then detailing them out and reselling them! They paid for my house and appliances plus half ownership in a body shop in 1980! I'm now sole owner of the shop but I closed it up when I retired and it plus several adjoining properties are covered with my personal cars that I play with like overgrown toys for my enjoyment! I did branch out into Oldsmobiles and then all makes of cars that come along when I'm hunting them but Pontiac is still my favorite!
My sister just bought a 1958 Packard sedan. It’s been sitting in a garage in Missouri for 30 years. It runs well she had to spend $800 on brake parts. Black paint still shines. Interior is decent. Its a beautiful car. It’s rare because you don’t see many of that last year Packards around. She gets attention everywhere she goes.
Can’t wait to see the Model A build! Love these videos. Glad to see you’re growing. I look forward to driving by and seeing what’s in the driveway every day. Thanks for sharing!
Hope you get to your goals man, I'll still remember you jumping out the travel all with the smoke rolling. I went back and watched all the content I could find, and haven't missed one since. Get them younguns their own rooms and a huge shop full of lifts. You'll still be the humble goofy ass you are, and that's what kept me around.
I found you through watching Mortske Repair and i can see why you are friends. You sir are awesome and honest. I hope you and yours get everything you need.
Nothing like getting an old rig back to life again! I have a 55 Belair and a 60 GMC truck that I got to do that with, it's so cool to hear them running after sitting for decades! That is a NICE Pontiac!
Puddin, you're in fine form! You do what you gotta do to make money and entertain us. I can't help much, maybe a t-shirt or something. (I've been fighting leukemia for 4yrs) Thanks!
Awesome hearing you air out how you have goals, two years later. I wasn’t here then , actually I pretty much just showed up and catching up. So happy that you’re doing well and have a bigger shop and a better place to live for your family. Good for you sir, I hope that you’re able to upgrade your life further, I’ll be here watching.
I think everyone who works their butt off on a daily basis to get something better deserves everything better! That doesn't make anyone a sellout it makes them a hard worker who didn't give up or whine about how hard life is! Those people earned it and God Bless them all!
when you ran her at the end in the backyard without smoke I was thinking "I wonder what the compression is now" and seconds later you checked. You're the best.. great work, and I loved the latest family vacation video.
HOT DAMN, Now Come On!! Freaking Amazing Job to get the Old Pontiac run’n again after. Forty Freaking years for a friend. You are one heck of a Mechanic and I take my hat off to you for taking a car from being the Rat Turd Ritz to being able to to do doughnuts in the field is pretty dammed Amazing. Proud to be one of your biggest 25K fans,. Dream big and go do it and forget about the others that don’t have the balls to do it for themselves. Cheers Buddy Kevin
Thanks for putting us onto "Boling Brothers". I have a '29 A Sedan and that's just the chassis I need. I usually build all my own frames but I like the one piece mandrel bent idea. Growing isn't selling out. Thanks for another fun video.
This reminds me of when I had to rebuild the whole braking system on my Datsun 521.. I had to change everything from the cylinder to each of the four drums and four wheel cylinders.. what a pain!
Keep up the good work. Don’t listen to anyone calling you a sell out. People are going to hate no matter what you do. They don’t see the dedication and hard work you put into running a TH-cam channel, being a mechanic and a father. You seem like a good humble man with goals that you can achieve through hard work. If people don’t respect that they can go ahhhh ahhhh hmmmmm you know them selves. Thank you for your positive uplifting fun content. Mad respect and much love.
Hey my man awesome mechanic shop an really cool tools an stuff an also cool cars an old pick up trucks too I encourage yu the best inn life with yur family an all that as well I injoy 👀 👀 👀 yur episodes its vert educational too me an interesting.
I just love an old car with built in tool trays on the fenders. You'll never lose a socket working under that hood. I, personally, can't call you a dummy for the sediment bowl mishap. Just ask my old Puddin' blue 52 Lincoln Cosmopolitan.
Do what you need for your family! I’ll watch you forever! Haters will always hate. They are just jealous. If you work hard you deserve more! That’s your job as a man to provide for your family!
I just found you, that TH-cam algorythm was slow in puttin' us together. Love your stuff. good sense of humor! Set your goals, start the trip, adjust course as necessary along the way. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. I'm a 1950's model myself, and we're built tough! Been dead a few times (flat line certified) but they just used those fancy jumper cables and brought me back. It aint over yet! Still got a few projects to finish🤪
You know what buddy it’s my pleasure . You work hard and you are damned good at what you do . Glad you are so much fun to watch and you have a definite knack for what you do . I hope you can buy a garage with a nice house for yourself and the family . And just keep it real it will happen . Hard work and determination always wins . Keep after it buddy and take care !
Hay puddin cup !!! Don’t worry about the content you absolutely put out every week.we absolutely love the videos (really)!!!!!! me and the mrs. Can’t wait every Monday to chime in to see what ya got up your sleeve. Your a man of great pride in what ya do . And to see you actually feel bad about not finishing your project however you were not SITTIN on your ass !! That being said you will most definitely go down in history as one of the greatest people and inspiration’s in my life personally. I know you probably will not get to read this or even ever know who i am . But just remember there is an abundance of us nobody’s out here behind what your doing!!
First off. GOD BLESS YA. For working on a Pontiac. I've owned 7 Pontiacs. And I also love 4 doors. I think that engine is a 370 V8. The 347 came out in 57. Oh yeah, in one of Mr. Good pliers videos, your pal Mortske made an appearance. He really gets around.
Man I love your channel. You sell out as much as you need to to provide for your family. That is what matters. But please don't change. I don't think you will, but puddin' bein' puddin' is what we love!
Hey Puddin love the videos been Watching all of them too get caught up I think it’s awesome to watch you grow your channel the more you grow the better for you and your family and us viewers so please keep doing what you do Thanks
I have an old blue little playmates igloo lunchbox I have. It’s from the 80s. Most of my coworkers have old boxes like that. Mine I found while cleaning out a shop and it was given to me
A lift ain't sellin out brother, I'm saving for a shop and lift. 15 years of heavy equipment wrenchin in the Chair Force and my back is blowed out.i love your channel brother, love from NW GA
Lol that radiator in the basement of a courthouse heating the whole place. Too funny 🙂 That rig is cool man. I'll definitely be getting the new Yee hawl shirt bro. Your logo in orange is super cool, it's sweet that the logo is versatile that way. P.s. I'll be thrilled to see you get a lift
Another great vehicle revival! You don't see many 1958 Ponitac Chieftains around, good car to keep alive and cruise around in! Nice original trim and looks good with the patina finish! Take care.
I just discovered Puddin's Fab Shop. It is, and you are, real. I come from an automotive background. My Father owned and operated a garage for 30 plus years, so yes, I grew up a motor head. My interest in automobiles became one of my avocations, but not my livelihood. Like you, my Father had his goals and priorities in order. I also come from a family of four 'young'ns'. My Father and Mother managed to feed clothe and college educate me and my three siblings. Not boasting, I have no use for a braggard, but I am proud and appreciative of both my parent's work ethic, initiative and unwavering commitment to family. You sir, I believe and hope, will achieve your goals !
Looking for you to do great things. Hope you get your bigger shop and House for your family. As long as you keep your sense of Humor, love and dedication to your family and keep creating and saving instead of ruining and destroying you will have me as a subscriber and loyal viewer. Love the video puddin.
This is what i love about alot of older cars ingenuity in places you dont see anymore someone trys to siphon your gas would never think to look there thats pretty nifty if i do say so myself
Dude I don't work on cars or care much about it but I find myself watching your videos which says a lot you are definitely entertaining man! I can tell you are gonna blow up on here soon enough just don't sell out like everyone else who gets big! Love the channel and videos God Bless man!
The ole Chieftain iS a cool car. Glad to see it free up and run decent. Love the channel and love seeing it grow. I hope ya get the size garage ya always wanted, and all the lifts ya need. Love seeing others prosper from their hard work…… We must be silent before we can listen. We must listen before we can learn. We must learn before we can prepare. We must prepare before we can serve. We must serve before we can lead.Four steps to achievement: Plan purposefully. Prepare prayerfully. Proceed positively. Pursue persistently.Blessed is he who has learned to admire but not envy, to follow but not imitate, to praise but not flatter, and to lead but not manipulate
I can relate growing up poor! Now my wife and I always wanted more for our 3 children and we both had to work for it, any which hours/jobs we could find. Keep it down to earth man, watch your compass, don't go for the get rich schemes some will throw at you, and you will have a rich rewarding family life. Thank you for the videos, also enjoy Slick!
Awesome revival. I’ll never judge you for taking sponsorship. Family first. This is your business. Make it grow. Take care of your family. Do what you need to, to make their life better.
I don’t hate on any of my favorite you tubers when they grow, but I do not enjoy the content as much. I love the backyard work with what you got guys because it’s relatable. Once you get into the fancy shop and tools I loose that connection. Hope you achieve success at all levels, maybe keep the channel in its roots where it started.
GunzNButter86 again from Massachusetts and I will just say that I've just been binge watching all of your videos!!!!! Cause honestly I'm not to happy with the way my life is going right now!!! Or the side path that's it's turned down being all mentally and liquidly washed out after work every day!!!! But seeing you being sober/dry for more then 6 months has helped me stop "Relaxing" everyday after work!!!!! And I've just been binge watching you basically every morning before work to get a great laugh!!!!!! And put myself in a great mood for the day!!!!!!! And just wanted to say Keep Spending Time With Your Family!!!!!!!!!!!! And keep making your Amazing/Hilarious/Knowledgeable/Exc...!!!!!!!!!!! Cause like I've said before, once my family and I catch up on the bills, I'm going to be (Puddin)!!!!!!! A decent size order on your website of a few T-shirts, and sweatshirts and sticker packs and a few of those awesome hats!!!!!!! And I'm working on a 1:64 scale of your first Datsun with the nub bed lol and also an interchangeable Yee Haul box!l! To mail to you.
Your family and yourself are definitely deserving of everything great you have coming to you. You've definitely inspired me to get off my ass and am actually working on a few cars and trying a shot at TH-cam myself at 47 years old. I've got over 40 subscriber's and I'll be happy if that's all I reach. It's really great to do the things you love at share it with others, even better to make a living and better your family situation. Good luck with your success! Build that shop of your goal and give those little ladies their own room in a beautiful home soonest. They'll definitely be appreciative. We grew up in a 2 bedroom house and 4 of us siblings shared a room until my Dad got a better job back in the day. It makes me really appreciate what I've been to through and where I am now.
If you put this Pontiac on a shirt, I garuntee a purchase. She needs a set of Wide Whites and her caps back on . Great video, just great. You deserve to have a bigger and better shop. And you family a nicer bigger house. Your little girls would love to have their own rooms. I hope you get it. You've earned it
I'm a fab and engine man myself, i have a "2" car garage with a tarp for the overhead door, and I'm in a wheelchair, but gosh darn it, if ya aint tryin, you are dyin. Id love to see you get a better shop, you earned my subscription today buddy!
You know… I was just thinking. Resurrecting these old vehicles will come in VERY handy after the apocalypse lol. Love your content man. Love the old cars too. Keep it up!
Soooo happy to see you hit 100K!!! Just 5 months ago you hit 40k. Growing exponentially. Tribute to your hard work and dedication. Keeping true to yourself is probably also a good part of your success. Congrats to you (and your little helpers in the background). Much deserved and surely to reach 500k sooner than you think.
Hey man anyone with an ounce of sense ain't gonna begrudge you any kind of success or "moving up the ladder" - in fact we're all cheering you on! If that means sponsorship deals or paid promotions or whatever, keep 'em coming, because that means we get more Puddin' to enjoy! You worked your ass off to get to this point, and apart from getting more polished and better at the video editing you haven't changed a bit so far, and that's a good thing! Here's wishing you all the success you deserve!
hey puddin there is nothing wrong with wanting to better yourself and wanting better for your family is what you should want!!! you are going the right direction keep doing the great videos
getting better things for your family is very understandable. i think what a lot of people consider sellouts are people who forget why their channel got popular in the first place. we like watching you and others bring "junk" back to life and become "cool". long as you remember that and dont become a car snob who only wrenches on luxury sport cars that dont really need major surgery to bring back. you will be golden.
Every sense I found your channel a few years back I have grown I like watching you everyday and would love for you to do live streams more than you do. You are so funny and smart.
The promo code didn't show man.
I know! That’s some bad editing. 😂 PROMO CODE PFS64
What, anyone who has watched many Puddin’ videos, should have that promo code impressed in their brains, lol.
@@1954shadow Heck - if I had a 1964 ANYTHING, that'd be my license plate!!
@@bobfreeman8952 now you did it, as soon as the DMV’s open tomorrow, there will be 50k lined up to get that plate.
Another top notch episode man! Look forward to em every week 💪💪
Never in the history of TH-cam has a more honest dialogue been spoken. I hope you get a 80 x 100 with 8 lifts, a new house and Gucci bibs.
Was just about to say the same exact thing
Couldn't said it better my self 👍
Puddin, your a damn fine American. Hope all your dreams come true man! Love the videos so keep em coming!!
Well..... everything but the Gucci bibs anyway!
Lol Gucci bibs
Hope this old dude makes it big, he deserves it.

Awesome car! Definitely interested in more. Can’t hate ya for having goals and working towards them. Good luck!
Nothing wrong with pursuing your dreams and setting goals for yourself Puddin! Enjoying your videos. Cheers from Alberta Canada!
Puddin, you're in fine form! You do what you gotta do to make money and entertain us.
I can't help much, maybe a t-shirt or something. (I've been fighting leukemia for 4yrs) Thanks!
Awesome hearing you air out how you have goals, two years later. I wasn’t here then , actually I pretty much just showed up and catching up. So happy that you’re doing well and have a bigger shop and a better place to live for your family. Good for you sir, I hope that you’re able to upgrade your life further, I’ll be here watching.
I think everyone who works their butt off on a daily basis to get something better deserves everything better! That doesn't make anyone a sellout it makes them a hard worker who didn't give up or whine about how hard life is! Those people earned it and God Bless them all!
This is car culture gold. You're funny, your cars have the most amazing patina I've ever seen.
Congrats on the 93,000 plus! This only works with the support from the Family. Awesome channel!
We love you Puddin' family ❤️
Appreciate the support!
when you ran her at the end in the backyard without smoke I was thinking "I wonder what the compression is now" and seconds later you checked. You're the best.. great work, and I loved the latest family vacation video.
It's not what your girls deserve, it's what YOU want for them. It's an act of love and we need a whole lot more of that!

HOT DAMN, Now Come On!! Freaking Amazing Job to get the Old Pontiac run’n again after. Forty Freaking years for a friend.
You are one heck of a Mechanic and I take my hat off to you for taking a car from being the Rat Turd Ritz to being able to to do doughnuts in the field is pretty dammed Amazing. Proud to be one of your biggest 25K fans,. Dream big and go do it and forget about the others that don’t have the balls to do it for themselves.
Cheers Buddy

Thanks for putting us onto "Boling Brothers". I have a '29 A Sedan and that's just the chassis I need. I usually build all my own frames but I like the one piece mandrel bent idea. Growing isn't selling out. Thanks for another fun video.
This reminds me of when I had to rebuild the whole braking system on my Datsun 521.. I had to change everything from the cylinder to each of the four drums and four wheel cylinders.. what a pain!
Keep up the good work. Don’t listen to anyone calling you a sell out. People are going to hate no matter what you do. They don’t see the dedication and hard work you put into running a TH-cam channel, being a mechanic and a father. You seem like a good humble man with goals that you can achieve through hard work. If people don’t respect that they can go ahhhh ahhhh hmmmmm you know them selves. Thank you for your positive uplifting fun content. Mad respect and much love.
Loving your patience, persistance and can-do-doing. That old green cheiftan machine sounds beautiful after all those years being forgotten.
The longer the better in my opinion
i agree
Hey my man awesome mechanic shop an really cool tools an stuff an also cool cars an old pick up trucks too I encourage yu the best inn life with yur family an all that as well I injoy 👀 👀 👀 yur episodes its vert educational too me an interesting.
So excited!!! Been waiting all day!
👊🏻👊🏻
I just love an old car with built in tool trays on the fenders. You'll never lose a socket working under that hood.
I, personally, can't call you a dummy for the sediment bowl mishap. Just ask my old Puddin' blue 52 Lincoln Cosmopolitan.
Do what you need for your family! I’ll watch you forever! Haters will always hate. They are just jealous. If you work hard you deserve more! That’s your job as a man to provide for your family!
I just found you, that TH-cam algorythm was slow in puttin' us together. Love your stuff. good sense of humor! Set your goals, start the trip, adjust course as necessary along the way. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. I'm a 1950's model myself, and we're built tough! Been dead a few times (flat line certified) but they just used those fancy jumper cables and brought me back. It aint over yet! Still got a few projects to finish🤪
HOT DAMN ITS OUR MAIN MAN PUDDIN!! keep them coming brother! 100k already just got my 50k shirt channels on fire!
Come on!!!
@@PuddinsFabShop look it up online it might be adjustable

Hay puddin cup !!! Don’t worry about the content you absolutely put out every week.we absolutely love the videos (really)!!!!!! me and the mrs. Can’t wait every Monday to chime in to see what ya got up your sleeve. Your a man of great pride in what ya do . And to see you actually feel bad about not finishing your project however you were not SITTIN on your ass !! That being said you will most definitely go down in history as one of the greatest people and inspiration’s in my life personally. I know you probably will not get to read this or even ever know who i am . But just remember there is an abundance of us nobody’s out here behind what your doing!!
Good job pudding like your style
First off. GOD BLESS YA. For working on a Pontiac. I've owned 7 Pontiacs. And I also love 4 doors. I think that engine is a 370 V8. The 347 came out in 57. Oh yeah, in one of Mr. Good pliers videos, your pal Mortske made an appearance. He really gets around.
Man I love your channel. You sell out as much as you need to to provide for your family. That is what matters. But please don't change. I don't think you will, but puddin' bein' puddin' is what we love!
Hey Puddin love the videos been Watching all of them too get caught up I think it’s awesome to watch you grow your channel the more you grow the better for you and your family and us viewers so please keep doing what you do
Thanks
Those old school Coleman coolers are the best. Been trying to find a good quality green one. Never saw the red but that is nice.
I have 3 lol....red, green, and blue! I'm 50 so I remember when those were the THING....now they are the THING again!
I have an old blue little playmates igloo lunchbox I have. It’s from the 80s. Most of my coworkers have old boxes like that. Mine I found while cleaning out a shop and it was given to me
Glad there is something to look forward to on Mondays ! Hot damn!
What's he going do to at next ?
A lift ain't sellin out brother, I'm saving for a shop and lift. 15 years of heavy equipment wrenchin in the Chair Force and my back is blowed out.i love your channel brother, love from NW GA
I saw a guy use a plastic lid from a plastic bin under the tire and it helped to slide the tires easier when the brakes are locked! Love your bibs!
Oh hell yes! I love Pontiac’s!!!
👊🏻👊🏻
Lol that radiator in the basement of a courthouse heating the whole place. Too funny 🙂 That rig is cool man. I'll definitely be getting the new Yee hawl shirt bro. Your logo in orange is super cool, it's sweet that the logo is versatile that way.
P.s. I'll be thrilled to see you get a lift
I am so impressed with the sound of this old beast!
Thanks for ALL the inspiration. 👍
Another great vehicle revival! You don't see many 1958 Ponitac Chieftains around, good car to keep alive and cruise around in! Nice original trim and looks good with the patina finish! Take care.
I just discovered Puddin's Fab Shop. It is, and you are, real. I come from an automotive background. My Father owned and operated a garage for 30 plus years, so yes, I grew up a motor head. My interest in automobiles became one of my avocations, but not my livelihood. Like you, my Father had his goals and priorities in order. I also come from a family of four 'young'ns'. My Father and Mother managed to feed clothe and college educate me and my three siblings. Not boasting, I have no use for a braggard, but I am proud and appreciative of both my parent's work ethic, initiative and unwavering commitment to family. You sir, I believe and hope, will achieve your goals !
Looking for you to do great things. Hope you get your bigger shop and House for your family. As long as you keep your sense of Humor, love and dedication to your family and keep creating and saving instead of ruining and destroying you will have me as a subscriber and loyal viewer. Love the video puddin.
Hell yeah brother!!
Come on!
Taking a bunch of pictures before tearing stuff apart never hurts.
This is what i love about alot of older cars ingenuity in places you dont see anymore someone trys to siphon your gas would never think to look there thats pretty nifty if i do say so myself
I love old rides. Thx for givin her some love & attention.
Not a sell out. Aim for the stars. Everyone is pulling for you and the fam jam. Love the videos.
Buddy you’re my kind a mechanic love this video. When I was a kid we had a 58 Pontiac 57 Pontiac 55 Pontiac and a 51 Pontiac
Family first , your family deserves everything and more brother keep it going and all things good will come to you and your family
Dude I don't work on cars or care much about it but I find myself watching your videos which says a lot you are definitely entertaining man! I can tell you are gonna blow up on here soon enough just don't sell out like everyone else who gets big! Love the channel and videos God Bless man!
Ironically this video addresses the “selling out” comments. 😂👊🏻 appreciate ya watching!!!
The ole Chieftain iS a cool car. Glad to see it free up and run decent. Love the channel and love seeing it grow. I hope ya get the size garage ya always wanted, and all the lifts ya need. Love seeing others prosper from their hard work……
We must be silent before we can listen.
We must listen before we can learn.
We must learn before we can prepare.
We must prepare before we can serve.
We must serve before we can lead.Four steps to achievement: Plan purposefully. Prepare prayerfully. Proceed positively. Pursue persistently.Blessed is he who has learned to admire but not envy, to follow but not imitate, to praise but not flatter, and to lead but not manipulate
Keep doing what you are doing. Don't apologize to anyone for doing right by your family. We'll keep watching.
Just cause you want more in life doesn't make you a sell out. It makes you a good husband and DAD and a good person. Keep doing what you do bro.
After 9 months I finally got around to watch this. Your right, any 50s GM is cool, even the 4 doors.
First job I had at the motors(Pontiac Motor Div. in Pontiac MI), was on the motor bridge Nov of 63
With 307k views how is this man not at 500k subscribers yet? So much entertainment and tech in every video
I can relate growing up poor! Now my wife and I always wanted more for our 3 children and we both had to work for it, any which hours/jobs we could find. Keep it down to earth man, watch your compass, don't go for the get rich schemes some will throw at you, and you will have a rich rewarding family life. Thank you for the videos, also enjoy Slick!
Awesome revival. I’ll never judge you for taking sponsorship. Family first. This is your business. Make it grow. Take care of your family. Do what you need to, to make their life better.
I don’t hate on any of my favorite you tubers when they grow, but I do not enjoy the content as much. I love the backyard work with what you got guys because it’s relatable. Once you get into the fancy shop and tools I loose that connection. Hope you achieve success at all levels, maybe keep the channel in its roots where it started.
Had a 54 Pontiac one time. Had a straight 8. Brings back memories. Would like to see more of this car
my Dad owned a 58... almost the same... only diff is it was a 2 tone green. the darker green was metallic. i loved that car !!!
Heck ya!
GunzNButter86 again from Massachusetts and I will just say that I've just been binge watching all of your videos!!!!! Cause honestly I'm not to happy with the way my life is going right now!!! Or the side path that's it's turned down being all mentally and liquidly washed out after work every day!!!! But seeing you being sober/dry for more then 6 months has helped me stop "Relaxing" everyday after work!!!!! And I've just been binge watching you basically every morning before work to get a great laugh!!!!!! And put myself in a great mood for the day!!!!!!! And just wanted to say Keep Spending Time With Your Family!!!!!!!!!!!! And keep making your Amazing/Hilarious/Knowledgeable/Exc...!!!!!!!!!!! Cause like I've said before, once my family and I catch up on the bills, I'm going to be (Puddin)!!!!!!! A decent size order on your website of a few T-shirts, and sweatshirts and sticker packs and a few of those awesome hats!!!!!!! And I'm working on a 1:64 scale of your first Datsun with the nub bed lol and also an interchangeable Yee Haul box!l! To mail to you.
Your family and yourself are definitely deserving of everything great you have coming to you. You've definitely inspired me to get off my ass and am actually working on a few cars and trying a shot at TH-cam myself at 47 years old. I've got over 40 subscriber's and I'll be happy if that's all I reach. It's really great to do the things you love at share it with others, even better to make a living and better your family situation. Good luck with your success! Build that shop of your goal and give those little ladies their own room in a beautiful home soonest. They'll definitely be appreciative. We grew up in a 2 bedroom house and 4 of us siblings shared a room until my Dad got a better job back in the day. It makes me really appreciate what I've been to through and where I am now.
If you put this Pontiac on a shirt, I garuntee a purchase. She needs a set of Wide Whites and her caps back on . Great video, just great. You deserve to have a bigger and better shop. And you family a nicer bigger house. Your little girls would love to have their own rooms. I hope you get it. You've earned it
I'm a fab and engine man myself, i have a "2" car garage with a tarp for the overhead door, and I'm in a wheelchair, but gosh darn it, if ya aint tryin, you are dyin. Id love to see you get a better shop, you earned my subscription today buddy!
You know… I was just thinking. Resurrecting these old vehicles will come in VERY handy after the apocalypse lol. Love your content man. Love the old cars too. Keep it up!
Right no computer on that old chieftain too shut down !
Soooo happy to see you hit 100K!!! Just 5 months ago you hit 40k. Growing exponentially. Tribute to your hard work and dedication. Keeping true to yourself is probably also a good part of your success. Congrats to you (and your little helpers in the background). Much deserved and surely to reach 500k sooner than you think.
Hey man anyone with an ounce of sense ain't gonna begrudge you any kind of success or "moving up the ladder" - in fact we're all cheering you on! If that means sponsorship deals or paid promotions or whatever, keep 'em coming, because that means we get more Puddin' to enjoy! You worked your ass off to get to this point, and apart from getting more polished and better at the video editing you haven't changed a bit so far, and that's a good thing! Here's wishing you all the success you deserve!
hey puddin there is nothing wrong with wanting to better yourself and wanting better for your family is what you should want!!! you are going the right direction keep doing the great videos
getting better things for your family is very understandable. i think what a lot of people consider sellouts are people who forget why their channel got popular in the first place. we like watching you and others bring "junk" back to life and become "cool". long as you remember that and dont become a car snob who only wrenches on luxury sport cars that dont really need major surgery to bring back. you will be golden.
Every sense I found your channel a few years back I have grown I like watching you everyday and would love for you to do live streams more than you do. You are so funny and smart.
