ATTENTION: If anyone replies to your comment and states you've "won a gift", it's a SCAM. Please do not email or "telegram" anyone your information. Also, revivals have NOT gone anywhere. They'll ALWAYS be on the channel. I like to take a break and do a cool build every now and who! THANKS FOR WATCHING!
It's a gift to watch your videos
speaking of revivals, what about that classic car boneyard out west????????????
I appreciate the grade A content. Cool stuff going on over here.
The is a true “revival”…too many others keep ending up in a coma or become organ donors. People need to crack a cold snack, chill, and enjoy the show!
It's called welt cord
The oil spill on cue was PERFECTION. and the dead pan comment from Derek… lol
Just another day in VGG....
That had me dying 😂 impeccable timing
That truly was an Emmy moment.
I spilt my dang drink laughing when you said that!!
When you call your friend who ran a oil pan up to Derek and he says it went well right up until he dumped a bunch of oil on the ground, and you then get to see that moment on video, chefs kiss
"No brakes garage" lol. That got a smile out of my daughter while she's getting her chemo treatment! Thank you for making her smile. Her smile makes me smile. Thank you Derek for bringing a little happiness to her while she's going through this. I wish Derek could see this and know just how much he makes one little girl and her dad happy.
Hey everyone - in the last year Derek his family have moved across many states, built a shop, built an add on to the shop, recovered from a flood, created an entirely separate TV show AND still delivered free content here. Can we get some applause for these hard working folks?!
"Also the oil drain is completely full over there" Prefect timing on the camera !!
"By the way, the oil drain is completely full" - sloshes everywhere. That was laugh out loud funny.
I died
I caught that too 😂
That was perfect timing! 😂
Me too LOLOL
That and the comment after has me cracking up.
Love how frustrated you get with all the different size fasteners from Dodge. Makes you appreciate GM.
19:54 minute mark. The oil drain being full to the brim made me laugh so hard! I know that feeling of being totally screwed and the only way out is to just make the biggest mess in the world 😂
@@nathan40307 I just let the oil create a mess 🤣🤣🤣
My dads been in the hospital the last couple days so I’ve got him hooked on the vgg helps keep a fellas spirits elevated
Hope he gets t feeling better!
@@samellowery I hope so too things didn’t look good at first but he’s recovering
Left hand drills pulled the broken bolts out of my hemi heads.
Get well soon to your pops!!!
@@avdude3 thank you hes getting better just got a lot to deal with
When I was in upholstery class, we would put Polly wrap over the old foam to give a little extra cushion and reduce friction between new cover and old foam. It works really well.
Interesting ty
@@ViceGripGarage In addition to the plastic, silicone spray inside the cover and on the foam will help the new cover slip on easier. When I did upholstery, we didn't cut the hog rings, we just grabbed them with the diagonal cutters and twisted while rotating, they usually come off easy and you don't have sharp bits of hog rings laying on your work surface ready to scratch or rip the new cover.
Good info. Gotta redo my 65 f100 seat and I may use that if it gets sticky. Makes sense.
Silicon spray does the same thing
A thin layer of foam will also make the new seat cover fit tighter/better & give a little extra cushion for comfort. Looks a lot nicer also.
Yup I remember when "Silverado" was a trim level (the highest trim level) of the C/K-series pickup, along with Custom Deluxe and Scottsdale. Chevrolet and GMC abandoned the more utilitarian model names as pickup trucks moved upmarket. Wow though, just imagine the decades of beer farts trapped in that old seat.
Thanks for another fun and interesting video. Can't wait to hear it run. As a teenager, I stuffed a stock car small block into a 67 Impala SS. I couldn't scare up an affordable Muncie, so I found a Borg Warner T10. That, of course, meant a different drive shaft (due to spline difference). Making sure I put no wear on my tape measurer, I just stuffed a drive shaft I found into it. It was only a 'little' tight. The first time I got on it and happened to hit a bump, I broke the left motor mount and shoved the fan through the radiator. I had less concern for my tape measurer after that. When the engine builder learned of my 'lemming charging off the cliff' move, he took pity and sold me an M22 for 100 bucks--because he 'didn't know it's condition.' He rebuilt trannies and knew damned well its condition and worth, but he was that kind of person. You remind me of him.
Well this may be the last new upload I get to watch with my viewing buddy. My mom loves your videos and 2 weeks ago she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in her lungs, kidney and lymphnodes. She gets a kick out of the bleep bloop lightning whirler guy. Your videos mean the world to this old vet. Keep em coming feller. God bless you and your family.
Enjoy what time you have left.
Sending prayers for strength and peace for your family.
I'm 65 years old and I'll never remember everything you teach me, but I love learning automotive terminology from you. I now know what a "Spark-A-Later" is, and a "Muff-A-Later" is! Knowledge IS power. Always make it one of your daily goals to learn sumpin' new! Thanks Derek! 👍😄🕊️
Ditto on your caution about getting under an engine on the lift chain. My lift was good, the chain plenty strong, the bolts super. But as I rotated the engine to align with the tunnel, a bolthead DRILLED through the washer, leaving a spiral groove as it released the chain - and a 426 hemi came down to concrete with a thud. My head had been a little bit under to see the tunnel clearly - lucky miss, but smashed oil pan, oil pickup screen & tube.
So glad to hear you read the comments. Watching your videos makes me smile. Thanks so much.
Funny thing. The revivals initially sparked my interest and I started out watching those. Then, as I watched more of them, I actually learned a lot more about motor vehicles. This then let me appreciate all the other car/truck content like builds, drag racing, modding, car events, etc. because I better understood what was going on and how much effort was involved. Revivals: the gateway drug to motorsport culture.
That is great to hear, we need more folks interested and involved to help keep the culture alive and well.
This is exactly how it worked for me too.
I remember watching the roadkill pig pen revival and it went from there. Honestly if it weren’t for roadkill or zip ties n bias plies i would have never found this channel
Spot on! Exact same for me as well! :)
I still find today’s automotive aftermarket absolutely amazing like the fact a feller can find a c10 from 73 to 87 crossmember to fit a gen 3 hemi is quite a specific part
Only had to drill one hole!
_giggity_
Yeah, seems like Chevy wants to get along with everyone, Ford, Mopar, Chrysler and many others.
Love the "drill press" absolute genius
Your friend Chad is one tough welder. No helmet and can see when he is done. Crazy.
I laughed out loud when your buddy Sloshed that oil everywhere. Lol
Love this build Derek! Going waaaayyyy outside the boundaries, mainstream, box. Yeah that's it. outside the box!
A guy used to work at Brampton Assembly plant in Ontario Canada building the Charger, Challenger, and 300s. That guy was lucky enough to work on the engine line and built up thousands of those 5.7s. Seeing this brought back some memories.
I can’t believe Monster transmission still exists, they sold me one for my Dodge, put it in, truck wouldn’t move, front pump was out, clutches burned out, and the torque converter went at 150 miles. Upon opening the trans I learned, it was a used transmission that had been painted silver, and sent on a truck from Florida to Tennessee. They told me I could send it back if I pay for the like $200 shipping. I asked if I could have a local shop look at it, they said yes. Then when we told them what all was wrong they said, “ Having another shop look at it voids the warranty, we can’t help you. Goodbye “ so after spending $2500 on the trans, I had to spend another $1800 to get it working. Went to the shop 8 times in 6 weeks. This was 2018. Found out my brother did the same thing in 2019. Bought one for his Squarebody. Same deal, used trans painted silver. Wouldn’t move. I cannot stress enough. DONT BUY
Edit: It died again a few months ago, mines an 01 ram 2500 360. I tow a lot of vehicles with her, once I got the trans to work,it worked, till it didn’t. Currently manual swapping
Presision transmission Amarillo
I cant believe it either. Most are dead on arrival. They use bent up trim nails to hold the pressure regulator wide open so it feels like a shift kit
@@jaredgrubb30 On Dodges like mine the OEM separator plates where incorrectly drilled. Holes were too restrictive, so anything you buy, or any shop you go to should have the new plates, The Monster had the original pos one. For sure, nothing was done besides paint. The “ burn rubber brewery “ fluid probably has Lucas or Ford friction modifier as it’s main additive in the hopes that it will keep them from slipping till the warranty is up. That company is pure evil
I dig you having helpers around. You got more than enough cars to work on so having buddy's join you is a cool change 👍. It's always good having a extra hand and set of eyes.
Second number is the cut style to match the metal back support
Cool, thank you
Derek you have the best friends for the build. The build is coming along nicely. I can't wait to hear the sound from the Hemi.
Plenty of firewall and head clearance for that hemi in the 80s cheby c10 very nice @Vice Grip Garage
Now this is the kind of thing I tune in for, and the reason I started watching the show. I will never, ever, do this but I still really enjoy it.
Very interesting watching Derrek tackle something for the first time.
We are soooooo accustom to seeing a Derrek that knows EVERYTHING about the project he is working on.
I appreciate you doing exactly what most normal folks do, especially when unfamiliar with something and you film it... working while reading instructions. 👍🏼
Hey, professional upholsterer for many years here. Don't cut the hog rings. Twist them off. If you just grab them with the end of your cutters, then twist counter clockwise, they open up and slip right off. Saves your hand and wrist and potentially eyes.
Also, turn your covers inside out. This way, you can line up with the original seems, and you can keep the selvage going one direction. The selvage for those who don't know is the scrap of fabric on the back side of a sewn seem. If you don't keep it on one side, it will flop back and forth, and look like the stitcher was drunk.
Thanks Derek for taking the time to do those videos. Really entertaining!
Glad you enjoyed it
Low down ornery and mean! One of my favorites ❤
That sheild that is in the way of the transmission is a Heat sheild for the exhaust to protect the bed from the heat as well as keep the eat from heat soaking the frame and cooking the Gas in the gas tank Derek @40:52 @Vice Grip Garage
Derrick, if your like some of us wrenches out here you have trouble falling to sleep at night thinking about all the minor to major issues this swap has going on.....whew...great fun and entertaining so thanks and stay safe. Look foward to the drive segment of the Square Body C10 Hemi in the future. 👍
I love that you keep blessing us with these feature length videos. You're honestly inspiring a guy to follow his dreams. Everything is slowly getting better. Thank you more than you can imagine.
Enjoying the bee-jeebus out of this build! Can't wait part 4!
I put the heavy vinyl mat back in my C-30 work truck and am 99%-100% happy I did it.
That is so lucky to find an 82 seat in that good of condition. My family had an upholstery business for years,where we also fixed and sold classic cars. It's crazy how many cars I've worked on over the years including some real classics . You are a very well rounded car guy. I like how you share all you know with whoever wants to watch and learn.
Ya know, there are worse ways a guy could spend a Friday night than watching Derek wrench on a vehicle. Cool name too.
Friday night and I enjoy these immensely...if you start a band Derek and the Dominoes is taken.
Ya damn skippy my friend
Worse than driving 40 miles round trip just to get 1" washer? But on the plus side it gives me time to watch Derek's new video on my phone.
Yeah like reading your waste of a comment! Lol JK feller
for me is Saturday morning , love Derek
From WV, me and friends of mine have done all the stuff you've being doing with revivals for years, as u have. I absolutely love your channel because a lot of people around here just let stuff die. I love bringing stuff back to life. Thanks so much for all the work u do with posting what u do. I can do the work, but I don't think I could do what u do with the video/editing. You're awesome man. Thanks so much.
I'm from Charleston
Wow! Quite the undertaking. Can’t wait to see the finished product. First swap like this I’ve ever seen! Excellent!!
I'm glad you put the disclaimer in the video about laying under the engine
I can't believe how much progress you've made on this . . but I guess I gotta, I'm looking right at it! 👍👍
You just make my day. You seem to almost always have a great time. Thank you for all the great entertainment.
"Busted can of biscuits!" OMG that's that's the best description I've heard you say. So True! Good One!!!
Amazing Progress Derek Great Work as Always @Vice Grip Garage
I love the full hour video on a Friday night!! What a better way to spend my night! Awesome! Thanks Derek!!
I have been loving the hemi swap vids! I would do this to my 1985 monte carlo ss. Derek and family, I can't thank you enough for what you do for us followers. Cheers to everyone keeping Derek and his family to keep pushing and doing these videos for us all.
Those were everywhere when I was in highschool, but now you hardly ever see them...I had the Buick version of the g body, the regal
Love the gbody Regal. Up here all the Montes got stripped down for stock cars and are now hard to find any original ones
19:50 "Also the oil drain over there is completely full right now, I don't know if you could tell or not." Laughed out loud at that one!
One of my favorite automotive shows ever. With your personality I think we might be related. But the joy you have for what you do is very evident in your videos. My inner mechanic lives vicariously through your videos.
I've "won a gift"! It's getting to enjoy another VGG video/build/revival/VGG mail bag opening/Jessica vapor lock/VGL-LVG videos, love it all. More power to you Bieri family!
Dude. Your my spirit animal.
Preciate it buddy
Love the upside down drill press trans jack!
Watching in Australia, been struggling a bit lately but watching your videos bought me right round... thank you for everything you do
Thanks for watching
Ya gotta like the Hemi Half, everything is looking good so far.
I can’t tell you enough how much I enjoy watching your channel. Thank you Derek,Jessica and Boy’s for doing what you Do! 🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I wish there was not so many haters. Who cares, enjoy the work we do. He was at wood street, drags. Hemi, and so on. Dodge, Chevy, and Ford. All American made, that's what we see. Also, metric bolts were started in Switzerland in 1876. But standard or metric. Waiting to see, thanks Derrik.
Freedom hack fired right up the first time nice Derek @Vice Grip Garage
Great idea with that reverse vertical drill press!
Thin plastic works great for helping slide seat covers onto the seat foam. I used dry cleaning bags to put mine on, worked like a charm.
Very different this build is, but right on the money for my favorite channel. It's nice seeing you get some help in the shop also. Congratulations on the Motortrend work that's coming, can't wait.
If you replace those exhaust bolts with studs and nuts then you can avoid having to repeatedly thread into the aluminum and possibly wiping out the threads. Plus, you can hang the manifolds on the studs while you're putting stuff together and it saves a bunch of hassle aligning the gaskets and manifolds on the heads.
Im currently in deep on my first build ever on a 76 sierra, and frankly the idea of doin what you're doing is mind blowing and terrifying! Good on ya for attempting this, and of course its gonna be fine. You continue to be an inspiration for me and motivate me to try and finish my project.
Congratulations on your success! It is well deserved. Looking forward to seeing you on Motortrend!
MotorTrend is just crap man.... its just more money and more inconvinient for everyone. I do get it for the Family. Its a security. But for the masses its bad... really bad. And they going to ruin it... just wait and see.
I've already filmed the season. Nothing is "ruined". It's just like vice grip garage, and I call the shots.
@@ViceGripGarage You dont understand how good that makes me feel... Stay happy, stay safe man... wish you all the best
@@ViceGripGarage Only issue for us Aussies is the we can no longer view Motortrend as they ceased all international subscriptions, due to putting very limited content on Discovery. Perhaps you could have a word to them on our behalf to reinstate us 😀
@@ViceGripGarage hope you don’t think I was saying anything negative. I’m stoked about the new show and will happily continue watching VGG on TH-cam!
Congratulations and good luck on the new show on Motor Trend.
It’s ok there are times safety is third you try but then it’s time to get stuff done it’s life. Great build Derek
Definitely a good candidate for an oil filter relocation kit....if they make one for that, that is.
If not I wonder if a guy could put a dog leg notch into that crossmember to create enough room.
De-look-saaaaay! Still loving the content. Keep it coming sir! Congratulations on the MT show!
Thanks for reading for hrs and answering the tool kit question.
All those master tool kits would be the most awesome prize ever .
Even BETTEREST than a Sterling wheel off"n the crew CAB.
Something that you used !!!. SPECIAL
I. Been a fan for years. I wish I could like this numerical times.
Great video. Love how Holley is thinking outside the box. I never dreamed anyone would build a kit to install a late model Hemi in a 40yr old Chevy truck.. very cool.
So excited to see what ya do on the big screen, I’ll still be here watching for little hints that there’s an editor in the building. Love what you and your family do keep up the awesome work
Missed watching your content Brother, been having a tough time lately, that said thanks for everything you do and God Bless you and yours!!
These vidyas are just right for keeping a feller entertained. Perfect.
Seat covers came out nice and the exhaust to looks really good I appreciate the videos thanks for sharing these Gen lll videos buddy
"We got the pressure washer out, I'm gonna blast in some oven cleaner and some other chemicals you're not supposed to mix together until we get some nauseous visible fumes"......Freaking Hilarious!! Derek, you have me rolling!!
I highly recommend the 20 Gallon oil drain from Hobo Freight, when it's full you close the valves and put the shop air to it and pumps it out. takes 2 minutes to empty it and no mess.
With all these headaches and LS probably sounds pretty good right now
Always love your builds!! Awesome that you take time to read a fellers comments too!!
This truck is a diamond! Love watching these old boys brought back to life!
Being an Aussie it may seem strange to yanks that this is one of my favorite pastimes. Derek and family make my life bearable, You see, I m in strife-torn Burma, fear is the key here for foreigners! Thanks for making my life easier!
Hi, I am an upholsterer for 56 years . when you build a seat or back use your heat gun to soften the vynil and it will go on way easy and you can get all the wrinkles out. Not that you did a bad job ...just tryin to make it easier for you.
Took me a while to get used to Derek's style, but now he's my favourite automotive channel from the south (compared to where I live). My favourites up here are D&D Speed Shop and Half-ass Customs.
First time I watched Derek He gave me gas....lol....VGG is by far my fave car channel now 😁
He's actually a Yankee. They recently moved to TN.
DD Speed shop? DD Speed shop? DD Speed shop!
If someone doesn't get the reference check out Zip ties & Bias plies. Ol Peg is who got me started on Vice Grip garage
Check out Cold War Motors as well if you don't mind the stock iron also.
@@johnsmith3802 Another good Canadian participant in TH-cam automotive show, loved the paint job that he did on a van a while back. Definitely renewed my interest in customizing another van, now that I know how to do a better job .
Awesome content as always Derek! Really enjoy your and Bentley’s cross-country trip. And enjoying seeing Bradley in the shop too! You’re doing this Cool Dad thing right!
"No breaks garage..." LOL! Awesome job!!!
I have a 1998 Jeep. Chrysler certainly made sure I need every metric and imperial socket in my set. 👍
That engine sure sits nice and deep between the frames. I have seen a new hemi put into a late '70's dodge truck and it fits better than the stock motor with room to spare.
When you're recovering the seats 💺, you can rejuvenate the foam rubber. A jiffy steamer like is used on clothes does wonders for it. You am see the foam rubber expand back out to the original shape as the steamer is run over the seat.
Derek your doing a great job nice to see friends giving you a hand be good too see it all done
Man that oil catch can full gag was hilarous! The dude shook his arm like a wet dog when the oil got on him. Thanks for entertaining this old car guy. You guys are fantastic!
Absolutely loving the hemi swap. I can hardly wait to see how she runs! Thanks for all your hard work! Congrats on your new show on motortrend! Looking forward to seeing it!! I know it's going to be a hit!!
I deliver auto parts for a major dealership in Plano, TX. I use vernacular like Derek. Ratiator, if I deliver hinges, I call them Propalators, if It's a connector, harness, I call then digicals. My accounts love it. I always give credit to Derek and suggest they bleep bloop him on TH-cam.
Great shot of the manifold stud extraction...especially the glowing nut....its the best feeling ever when you feel it starting to turn
You are making great progress on the swap, gonna be a nice truck again soon!
Love the video Derek. You do awesome work. The Hemi Chevy is coming along awesome. The exhaust is fantastic, can't wait to hear the rumble.
I'm a mechanic have helped the upholsterers to fit seat covers. They spray the corners of the foam with silicon spray. It helps the covers pull on easier and save the foam pulling too. especially on single seat backs where they are tight to fit. As usual an awesome vid Derek.
The hemihalf is looking awesome, Derek! I really like the stickers you came up with. I can't wait to hear that thing fired up!
All good stuff!! Congratulations on the MotorTrend show. Thanks again for all the hard work you do to entertain us. I’ve been getting plenty of nice compliments on the red white and blue eagle shirt!!
