You can pickle galvanized metal with Vinagar or Galvaprep before painting and it will last a lot longer, and muriatic acid works very well for cleaning off rust...
Booooommmm NNKH babyyyyyy…Chris.. your a legend, just getting the job done, down with it… Your channel is the awesome… keep up the great work you do brother..
I'm way late to the NNNH party but thanks for all the laughs!!!! I totally needed this. As a life long restorer and tinkerer its great to see you youngins learning the hard way - not from YT! I was commenting out loud in part 1 about the prop pitch and direction, then spit my lunch out over the vinegar and salt making HCl comment - totally ruined Fish and chips for me. The gold paint and buff was the capper! Almost looks like 4 grand now! Loved every minute of this - you're like a modern day Red Green! It's only temporary - unless it works!
Have no interest in airboats, but I've watched it 3 times already. Learned so much and it was super fun to watch. Love you're 'lets just get to it ' approach. Keep it up
Hey Chris! She is coming along real good. I am surprised that the porcelain center did not blow out of the spark plugs and that was an interesting display of the good plug compared to a misfiring plug. And yes good call on replacing the radiator, I was wondering how badly the inside of the cores were plugged. I am looking forward to see this out on the water. Thumbs UP man ! 👍
Love watching you restore these old builds, and the prop is something that I'd do, those lights are so bright, awesome video mate, 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘🦘🦘Cheers from Melbourne Australia
Chris ! We ought to call you GOLDFINGER ! I thought Oldsmobiles were gold but a Cadillac engine blows them away , all day . You are a very hard worker and very passionate about achieving your goals . You have energy to spare and that’s what gets the job done . Congratulations on gaining a sponsor . I think they have found someone who uses their product religiously and will show honest review .
Yes I appreciate the the in and outs even when you make mistakes and how you correct them that's what helps inspire us that are challenged and helps us to overcome and to keep on fixing something doing something and having something I've enjoyed the video I will definitely be a fan
Love the airboat, memories of my buddy and I cruiz’n the Everglades in a 21 footer and stoppen to check out a gator that was longer than the boat. You will have a blast. Not so dead guy your friend for ever MIKE
I put Nilights on my tactor and my DR and I'm really impressed. They're bright, don't draw much power, and they can put up with a massive amount of vibration.
Just wanted to say thanks for showing the blaster metal rescue. I just used it this weekend on a carter carb that had been rusted closed for many years. I was stunned to see how clean it was when I pulled it out after only 12hrs. Its freed up and looking like new. Love the videos. Thanks again!
Thanks man! Yeah it's hard to say no to that kind of thing because I'm definitely dumping quite a bit of time and some money into this boat. And it's not like I'll ever be able to sell this thing for how much money I put into it
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow wish i could enter your contest cause i really need them to put on camper, was gonna take my son camping for his birthday and they would be perfect..but i dont have Facebook or Instagram..dammit
Awesome work! my dad and grandfather both have 1954 Cadillacs both needing restoration I started watching your channel about three months ago because I love getting old stuff running as well! Your bass dumpster inspired me to drive out to Nevada from Cali with my gramps to pick up a pos free boat and today with the help of my old man we got the omc 351 Windsor fired up! It’s an awesome feeling,this week I’ll be rebuilding the carb to see if I can get the secondaries moving , trying to fix the cracked exhaust manifolds and depending on how far I get I might even toss some wood over the rotten floor fun time!! Nnkh for the win!!!
Just found your channel and I am really enjoying your content. Can’t wait to see how the boat turns out. I think your video pacing is perfect. Enough detail to show what you are doing without becoming a how-to video. Keep up the great work.
Can I just say your channel is so fun to watch! Really enjoy the content you work your butt off to make! Thanks for being honest and sharing the adventure!
If you pickle the galvanized metal (wipe it down with white vinegar) it promotes paint adhesion -- works pretty good -- great videos, keep up the good work !
I rehabbed an old boat a few years ago. Had to replace a lot of the transom, most of the boxes on the interior and new carpet. Painted camo. It was a fun project just as your is. Keep going.
I'm glad you poked a hole in the radiator because I was thinking it would probably fail while you were out having a good time and it's a good thing you had to change it so you didn't get stuck out on the water
I was known for the habit of which I see in you Chris. ...........You apologize for 'no good' reason too much. I say that's bc you're a decent and humble soul that likes people, being human and loving the life you have been blessed to live.
Great progress. Can't wait to see what kind of trouble you get into when you get this thing in the water! I was SO relieved when you took the prop to a shop for machining. I didn't want to see you guys turned into smoothies when the out-of-balance prop came off. Then you dropped the bomb about the pitch. Who knew? Not me... I respect that you left that part in the vid. Love your stuff.
There will definitely be some trouble in shenanigans! Yeah totally socked about the prop. Oh well, Darren down at sensenich is giving us a great price on a two blade composite and a new adapter for the engine as well. Totally stoked to get it on
I know I'm late, your videos are so down to earth and captivating I'll comment all the same. After watching the 1st video in this series and watching you guys breathe air into that beat up Caddy motor, I had to check out the next 2, Catching that blade angle on your prop was very clever. I hadn't thought of that either. I'm on to your next video of the series, part 3. I'm confident enough to predict it'll be awesome!
yooooooo lets goooooooooooo. as a no joke professional youtube watcher who knows whats good and whats not. This channel could be one of the top fix it channels on the internet! keep up the good work bro
I would have thought to mount those bleacher seats with a much longer carriage bolt that went all the way through but you did it a completely different way than even what you're suggested prior. I love how there's a hundred ways to skin a cat!
Man that’s a lot of bolts!! All stainless is a must on boats, I’ve used galvanized and chromium only having to replace in a few years. It’s looking real good 👍
I definitely won't make money on this one! But luckily with the sponsor cards, that brings a little bit more sense to it. Otherwise this thing's a total money pit. I'm crossing my fingers the engine doesn't blow up within the first 10 minutes on the maiden voyage
Hole saw tip with plastics(soft material), start the hole with the bit as per normal then switch drill to reverse and press as normal, cleaner hole and not so much mess. Thanks for the interesting vid.
I think that’s awesome not very many people these days use the term monkey wrench I’m 58 now when I was a young kid my grandparents and family members always called a crescent wrench a monkey wrench. Love what you doing I enjoy watching your videos.
Thanks man! And yeah definitely sweet about the sponsorship because that makes this hole endeavor a little bit more worth it than just dumping money into a boat. Hoping to do some more giveaways as well
Chris, I really enjoy your videos and I like the way you edit them to. You include all the details while cutting out all the fat . Also we’re practically neighbors which makes watching your channel even cooler! Keep up the good work
Hi Chris, John from across the pond just wanted to say I've got everyone I know onto your content as you tackle the shit we all wish we could find! Keep on making in my opinion the best content bar none and on my favourite link NNKH!
Thanks man! Yeah it's definitely a nice thing because it allows for buying more tools and putting more money into some of these projects. Hopefully start doing some more giveaway stuff as well!
Hi from uk chris👋👍 wow this machine has come so far in this episode 👌 great job man it looks superb in gold👍 hope you have some good fun with it once its complete and ripping 👌 thanks blaster for sponsorship on channel too great stuff and better to come👍 thanks for your time and be safe see you soon👍👋
I got to admit after part one I thought you where just gonna drop her in the water on 7 cylinders but already in part 2 went to stage three this is going to be a great build
awesome video. for rust use distilled white vinegar. the 30% cleaning distilled white vinegar found at a home improvement center is best. rust removal through electrolysis works also.
You were talking about the painting of galvanized parts. Give the metal a good wipe with vinegar. It does something to the chemical process. This has made my paint jobs last a descant amount of time.
Great show. Extremely educational. I learn so many common sense things. I appreciate your skills, attentiveness, and effort to fix everything. You're a restoration craftsman. and... 3:26 "fix the water pump to squirt people" ... hilarious, .
I have recently restumbed upon ur channel and seem to be addicted 😬love ur enthusiasm and the way u go about things reusing old bits etc keep up the great vids 👍love how u mix it all up as well top job👌😎
I am sooo pissed you screwed up on that prop.. really wanted to see and hear that baby rore !! the thing looks awesome ..love this series.. keeper movin !!
UPDATE: Congratulations to Nick Hamilton on winning the LED light giveaway!
Good work channel sponsor
Vick's Tire 6th street Kingsville TX 78363
Bad brake lines saw Vick in Subway he suggested tow truck.
Why don't you just put another radiator in it
Love what you did with the old prop. Putting it on your garage.
What most youtubers drag out for months, Chris completes in one video.
And that's why I much prefer his videos
I love how 99 times out of 100 you always have the spare parts to hand. A true inspiration
You can pickle galvanized metal with Vinagar or Galvaprep before painting and it will last a lot longer, and muriatic acid works very well for cleaning off rust...
Booooommmm NNKH babyyyyyy…Chris.. your a legend, just getting the job done, down with it… Your channel is the awesome… keep up the great work you do brother..
Great content thanks for including mess ups because that's real ! Great vintage project !
Lots of mess ups in this one! Lol
Old Caddy engines for the win. I really dig the NNKH videos. They are exactly that. No nonsense and more knowledge. How can you go wrong?

Good call swapping all the less thought about nuts and bolts to stainless.. a lot of folks would have just rattle canned the old stuff

Your resistance to punishment is impressive. Your work ethic, even more so. Inspiring stuff.
Gonna be a cool build
This things coming round quick NNKH
NNKH, love your back yard mechanic heart and attitude, reminds me of myself as a young man...keep up the great work!

Love the way you kept in trying to pull the crank pulley without removing bolts:)
Shows us you are human after all:)
A big "atta boy". Love the way you have "stash" of needed supplies. Blaster stuff is the best in that penetrating product, I have tried 'em all.
Awesome work, I really enjoy your videos. Bummer about the prop! I drive a Cadillac so I’m excited to see it fly down the river!
Thanks. And yeah that was kind of embarrassing that we both overlooked that! Lol. She'll be on the river soon hopefully
NNKH , sure the lights are long gone but wanted you to know I watch your videos to the end.
Enjoy and keep pumping out the great work.
Thanks very much for that! Appreciate you tuning in

Ok enough of all the work!! We want to see it in action !!
Man that’s a lot of bolts!! All stainless is a must on boats, I’ve used galvanized and chromium only having to replace in a few years. It’s looking real good 👍
It’s great how you go above and beyond to fix things. I hope you make some money when you sell this thing.
I definitely won't make money on this one! But luckily with the sponsor cards, that brings a little bit more sense to it. Otherwise this thing's a total money pit. I'm crossing my fingers the engine doesn't blow up within the first 10 minutes on the maiden voyage

Bolt a sheet of Teflon on the bottom of boat. lt and you can drive it over any surface. Right down a concrete ramp
We need to see a final video on the SwampAss on the water.
Great down to earth channel. NNKH

Amazing efficiency...
The airboat is looking good. Thanks for offering those cool NNKH lights up for free. ☺
The hotel food/chafing pans are genius for oil pans, rust removal baths, etc. Noted..
Always been Mopar
Like what you did on old Dodges.
I can't wait to see the air boat.
Hey man, congrats on the sponsor…pb blaster is like magic. Love the gold engine..:) thanks for bringing us along, looks like a fun project

That rattle can paint job never disappoints boys
Truth!
Great job! Evapo - Rust works pretty good
Thanks. And cool I'll have to check that out. I was really impressed with how well the blaster rust bath worked. Especially since it has zero odor
I just rebuilt an old bass boat to take my grandkids fishing so I can send pictures to Nakhon!
NNKH, Those lights would look great on my Ford 8N tractor. Really enjoy the channel, inspirational.
The gold paint gives it some class.
Congrats on the sponsors and the work on the caddyswampass... lookin good and keep up the great NNKH work! you rock Chris. Have a good one!
That's quite the boat! Lot of work though. NNKH. I WATCHED SINCE YOU BOUGHT IT!
Blaster! Nice! It's like coffee in the morning!

PB Blaster is what all the pros use, and it has been around for at least 22 years, that I can remember.
NNKH - congratulations on the Blaster sponsorship! Great products.
Thanks man and yeah for sure!

Just started watching your videos and loving them
I am sooo pissed you screwed up on that prop.. really wanted to see and hear that baby rore !! the thing looks awesome ..love this series.. keeper movin !!
"Blood shooting out of my fingernail." Son of a peach, indeed. I have to say that this is entertaining as hell!
I have etched copper pcb's with 50/50 vineger and peroxide then add small amounts of salt to get it to etch faster.
Another awesome video. Be some sweet Jeep lights.
My grandfather was a machinist at the Stewart Warner factory in Chicago back in the day. I heard they made high quality gauges.
Great build! Can’t wait to see it go!
