First clean up in 30 years on our $500 65 Dodge Dart 2 door
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 เม.ย. 2022
- So this is our $500 65 Dodge Dart coupe that has been parked for around 30 years, it has a 225 slant 6 engine and column shifted 3 speed manual transmission (3 on the tree). In this video we finally clean and detail the car by vacuuming and pressure washing it. In the last video on this car we got it running after 43 attempts and using 24 volts. Stay tuned for more videos of us fixing the brakes and driving it for the first time.

I'm glad you gave a shout out to your vacuum cleaner.... That's got to be one of the hardest working tools in the tool box! ANOTHER cool car!😁
Yes thank you
Love to watch u guys clean those cars up. Ralphie has an impressive work ethic. Like father like son!!!.
Watching this from Australia mate. Leave the Slant Six in it. Rust proof it, lowered stance, white wall tyres, brake rebuild and a new exhaust throughout will put this car back on the road 👌🏻
Oh yeah and i dig the channel 😉
Thank you yes sounds good
@@jerryriggs6911 Lol
Love that car! Great memories one of my brothers had a 65 Dart 2 door gold on gold interior, we pulled a 16 ft boat to the lake with it. Last car he bought before he went to Vietnam. He's ok today, Dart is a memory.
PS: His 65 Dart also had a slant 6, did a good job pulling the boat.
That’s awesome
A moment for the DeWalt vacuum! Absolutely! 😄 That was a lot of trash to clean up. Looks real good all cleaned up and the patina is nice! Good job ya'll! A 60s small car on my list is a Mercury Comet. I almost bought one, but the guy sold it before I could get it.
Yes!!! I like the comets as well
Really love this channel. Your sense of humor is great, and i like that every car regardless of the condition seems important to you. Thats a great characteristic to your videos. I really appreciate that, and i hope that continues! Great work!
Thank you really appreciate it
I know he’s a natural as good as old Derrick funny and down to earth and he’s from Tennessee like me what’s not to love!
@@Sleeperdude absolutely man. Really cool stuff.
Dennis I'm glad you save them tomorrow more parts I'm a big Mopar buff I'm glad for you for saving them cars I wish I had the money I'd come to Dallas and try to buy one from you but I just don't have no money but you you do a good show and I let watch every episode you made keep up the good work
@@jerryhurley1068 I aggrieved with you
Great video ya'll as always and that did clean up nice.We got to keep these beautiful machines from the grave yards or out of the cabbage.Can't wait to see whats next for this girl and the rest of ya'll projects.Stay safe and have fun.
That’s right .. thank you for watching
Oh, does this bring back memories...when I was a kid in the 60's my mom and dad had a 61 Dodge Lancer with the slant 6 and push button transmission. And just like your 65 Dart, the back floor pans had rotted out, and some of the carpet was gone. My instructions when getting in were to step on the bottom door frame, then over to the drive shaft tunnel with my other foot, and drop onto the seat. Under no circumstances was I to try to stand up or get off the seat while we were moving. I could literally sit there, look down through that hole and watch the road go by as we drove along. And if it was raining and the road was wet...yep, I would be wet too. Somehow I never did get sucked down that hole and out of the car.
Oh my gosh that’s hilarious
@@Sleeperdude fred flintstone wood be proud
Thank You guys for another good episode. Man, I forgot about having to “wedge” the window in the up position to keep it from rattling. The engine being painted orange makes me think it was rebuilt at some point I’m pretty sure they didn’t come from the factory that way. Looking forward to seeing what’s next week will bring, well wishes to you and your family and of course Rocky 🐐
Thank you .. yes I wedged a few windows 😄
Its red and yes its factory.
the orange and how its applied and over sprayed make me think it was a spray can rebuild with the engine still in the car
That original colour is beautiful 👌🏻. Star of this episode is most definitely the vacuum, geez that's a ton of rubbish. Great clean up video 🤙🏻
Yeah it does work great
Really cool little car. Actually really solid. It reminded me cleaning out my 59 Apache. My uncle parked it in 85. And it was about the same inside. He had about 5 sets of floor mats. In it. Which did help save the floor.
That’s funny
This brings back so many memories of my 65 Valiant... daily driver, bone stock. Drove her everyday to work till she popped a rod after 400 thousand miles, I am not kidding. Then I got a 78 Cordoba. But I miss my old friend the Valiant.
That’s crazy
Just a piece of advice, Josh, something I learned from my best friend Tim, who sadly passed in 2020. If you have a Keeper, after you’ve cleaned the interior plastics and vinyl to your satisfaction, use Old English Oil Soap on it. It’s way cheap, and coats of the oil will improve or at least stabilize the condition of geriartic plastics and vinyl. Do Not use Armor All - this will create cracks, unless you re-apply it regularly - I know this from personal experience. I use Old English Oil Soap on the dash and interior plastics of my 74 Celica and have for years. No cracks that weren’t there before I put the pieces in (it was a ground up resto, Tim and I finished 10 years ago). The oil will make the stuff shiny, of course. So fair warning on that. 😎👍
Ok good info thank you
I really like the power washing. Cant get enough of that. I also like how your whole family is involved, what an inspiration. And of course, getting these old cars running on a budget by keeping them original and not restoring them. I always look forward to the next video. God bless.
Thank you
She really cleaned up good 👍 looks so much better. Can’t wait to see more on this one. Love the style of it.
Thank you
Why do y’all keep getting these junkers to bring home and get running put on brakes then u can’t hardly give ‘‘em away?
@@johnseiber4586 ?
There is a 2V intake manifold for the 225. That and the correct carburetor will turn that into a Super Six. Me and a friend did that to his 65 Dodge A200 van. He wanted a little more horsepower and the new setup made a big difference.
That would be cool
I became a bonified member a month ago before seeing all these back vids... .. i am keeping up with this one because i had a 65 plymoth valient that took me three years to get back to spectacular......One thing that i found out about my car is the alternator generator setup always had power and started like a champ once it was straight....i made it i to a competition bass blaster and called it " The Mayberry Boomer" it could rattle 14 floors from under a parking garage......and had the hand crank siren and a state police blueberry light on top!!!
Oh cool thanks for checking out our older videos
THAT IS A GOOD ONE. WHAT A GREAT FAMILY , Y'ALL TAKE CARE AN GOD BLESS !
Thank you
Cleaned up pretty good ! Thanks for the goat attendance report ! All the best to you and the Fam !
Thank you
A walk down memory lane when I ran across the video! I was raised in Juneau, AK, and my family bought a 1965 Dodge Dart 170 2-door model just like this when it was a year old in 1966. It was teal blue with a similar interior, though the cloth on our seats was a different pattern. It had rubber mat floors, 3 on the tree and the only "extra" was an AM radio. It also came with the "poverty hubcaps". The sound of this car running brought back a lot of childhood memories! This car replaced a 1950 Dodge Coronet Club Coupe that we had, and in late 1971 we sold this Dart and bought a new 1972 Dart Swinger. It had an automatic transmission, AM radio and carpet, so to our thrifty family we thought we had "arrived"! Ironically it came with "poverty hubcaps" also. Brent Long, Seattle WA
Awesome thanks
This is LD'S other half, Bob. I had a friend in High School in 1970 who had a 63 Dart with a 273 2bbl. and push button automatic. Cool car Great time to be a Teenager too!
That’s cool
Sorry, if you get new casings on it you need to get the ones with that thin white wall and put the hubcaps back on.
Hmm your thinking what I’m thinking
that trunk cleaning was very satisfying to watch.
I’m glad you enjoyed it
Your vacuum cleaner is first class! That darn thing will pick up anything! Whatever brand it is should be a sponsor for your channel!
That's a fact!
I know right, it’s a dewalt
My dad now in heaven was a Chrysler guy and I became the same way love Mopar vehicles. Thanks for rescuing the cats.
That dart has 74 Dodge dart hub caps on it
The 74 Dodge dart swinger I had had the super six carb. 225motor.
Was rescued from a junkyard I picked it up for 250$ front end was shot underneath it ball joints all the stuff you need to do to get it done and ready for the road again
No problem
Sorry for the spelling 😂 cars not cats.
You guys are going to be fine. Lil bit tough time starting out an not having a weekly paycheck definitely need to watch the envelope definitely. Hope your going to keep up the good work I'm on here for hrs. Watching you guys thanks again and good luck with God's help my friend yours truly Ken
Love this video. The dart 🎯 coupe clean up really nice like night and day difference. After all the parts and stuff and power wash it should weigh less than 2,500 pounds maybe less than that. Looking forward to seeing the next video love what Y’all do. You’re creating project cars for the next owner down the road.
You hinted a 360 swap for the Dart 🎯 that would be nice but the slant six would be good on gas at these prices and very dependable. God Bless Y’all.
Thank you
@@Sleeperdude get a sheet of 3/4 inch plywood make a template for the rotten floors and cut to fit for safetys sake while you do the drives................
I really really love these classic cars you’re putting on this channel! Amazing work as always I love your builds
Actually looks like a car now!
Thank you I appreciate it
@@Sleeperdude where do you find them?
Years ago, the full front rubber floor mats were popular. Especially in the snowy states. People would use them to save the carpet from salt, stains and damage.
Yes!
I think a good name for the solid white new baby would be Buffy. Buffy was the name of my west highland terror who I just lost at the age of 19, she was all white and a great dog, I really miss her. Bill
Ok thank you
That's a lot of more to bring it with the Cleaning up with the old school 1965 Dodge Dart Coupe.
Nice work team.
Thank you
You're welcome bro.😎🤝
@@Sleeperdude you have to name the twins Dale and Dolly!!!!!!!!!!!
Lovely video man, as you said it'll make a great car with some work, old cars can be brought back to life with time and effort-
Yes for sure
@@Sleeperdude out of the two, the wagon is my favorite. It's got more character in the overall design, shame that so many are left. They were family trucksters-
225 /6 with 3 speed manual: a combo that (with reasonable maintenance) outlived whatever vehicle it was in. This car deserves to keep the original powertrain. Anybody can alter it from stock with a V8, but this original setup has real personality.
You've replaced that exterior grime with a patina worthy of a rat rod. Bravo!
Yeah they are reliable
Your Outdoor Automobile Museum is coming along nicely. They make perfect Lawn Ornaments as they wait to be reborn.
Yes for sure
Great Job. That would be great first car for sure. Looks great and see through floors might be the new thing. I was very surprised at how well it looked once cleaned up. Especially the engine department.
Yeah I was surprised too
Love the video! Would like to see you pick one car and do a complete restoration. But keep up the great work! Always look forward to seeing your videos.
Thank you, I plan to do that with my falcon when I get the time
My first car in high school was a 65 Dodge Dart 4 door automatic with the 225ci slant six, i am 68 years old and loved your video!
Very cool
Best car for ice fishing !. Drill the holes pull up remove floors and drop a line or four. Beverages and food up front, TV. No fish no problem on to the next spot. Not recommended for a Porta potty . Hello Wisconsin And Minnesota, Michigan folk!
Great idea!!!!
Love the Dart! Tight engine compartment though. Small blocks fit. A 318 or 360 4 spd would be cool
Yeah that would be cool
Adapt a chevy S-10 transmission to the slant six--it can be done very inexpensively--have a muscle car shifter on the floor and then you can really rip it and the little six will surprise you how good they go! With OD they will get 30 mpg as well.
The vacuum manufacturers are definitely missing a shot at some good exposure with all you guys that are doing these revivals of old cars.
I know they should sponsor us
and the manufacturer of the animal crackers and the vahinya's to, they would all benefit from sleeperdude sponsorship.
What a gem .. I love these old cars .. I like how you and your son picture show together..
Thank you
Good memories in a 65' Dart. ❤ Thanks for the video 😊. God bless you, be safe, and have fun!
Thanks, you too!
Love those old mopars!
Thanks for posting Josh. Would be a good project car for a young person who wants to start getting into this awesome hobby of ours. Even a stock junkyard 318 2bbl (another great Chrysler engine) would make that thing scoot. You're not wearing your new fishflops yet?
Thank you. Your right.
"I would have let the kids drive it, but it has no brakes" ... But it's cool. Ralphie can ride in the back seat that has no floor :-). I can't wait until I can get my kids involved in something like this. You guys are awesome!
Thank you
Your wife was eyeing that car..new casings,poverty caps all the emblems and stainless steel...I could see her driving it to the PIGGLY WIGGLY. GREAT VIDEO AS ALWAYS..THANKS 👍
She would drive it for sure
Another good one. Any future plans for the turbo tbird? Love that car. My father had one when I was young and it's on my bucket list 👍
Yes I would like to 5 speed swap and do some performance upgrades just havnt had time yet
Yeah, a junkyard 5.3 with a couple turbos! Fun fun!
The Tri-point Dodge emblem is actually called a "Fratzog". That car sounds so weird when it starts. Doesn't sound like the old mopar starter at all - sounds like something modern.
Yeah we replaced the starter with a modern mini starter in the last video
lol the look on your daughters face when you said this could be her first car, is priceless
🤣🤣🤣🤣
America's First Family of Royal Crown Cola.
There is always a bright side of the road.
That’s funny
Ralphie will be so ahead of the game come shop time 6th through 12th grade. I wish him a bright future!
I believe we fans out in TH-cam land would love to see a whole series of the family building cars for your kids to drive to school.
Yeah I think that’s a great idea
I'm sold on that DEEwalt vacuum. Gonna have to get me one.
It has been surprisingly good
DANG that car is nice! The 6 seconds from 27:14 looks straight out of a Barratt Jackson video. That right there is why Sleeperdude is my favorite Mopar and Billygoat channell on youtube
Thank you
You gyes are really something else. Got that Dart running and drove out under it's own power! 😊 Good job!😅
i had a 1965 valiant safari wagon - i fixed it up with LSD disc front new booster shockers wheels tyres - { hoopes and casings = see i`m learning } and it was white with blue interior Regal Safari = 318 fireball v8 and a904 auto trans = 125 mph . color coded bumpers !
Rocky's little boy looks like an "Apollo" Creed to me. That or a "Clubber" Lang. Gotta pay that homage word to the movie! 😄
Yes good ideas
I love that you save these little and rare cars, nobody else normally is interested in these, but i also like them more than the huge muscle cars. Plus the dash and the patina looks very interesting! Imagine what a great looking car this once was!
Yeah I like cars no one else has
Well I was going to bed an hour ago cos it's late here in the UK, then this popped up in my notifications...doh! another great video from Sleeperdude...and family. Thanks!!!
Thank you for staying up with us!!
The armrest with the ask tray on the driver's door is a rear armrest moved to the front door
One of the set of full wheel covers is from a 63 Plymouth valiant
Ok thank you I appreciate it
Never too early for Ralphie to learn a little about welding, bodywork, or paint.
Yes!
Oh no I see Ralphie in the car and no brakes, it stopped. Killing it. Watching.
Thanks
It finally dawned on me just now when you pour out the juice of the “Vaynia” at the end it brought me back to my childhood when we had the cans of Vienna sausage ha ha ha now I get it
That’s great
to see Ralphies face when you said get your tractor. Magic
He loves it
My aunt had a 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger. She drove it for 14 years. Slant six was very dependable. Her car had the exact same factory wheel covers with Dodge printed in them. They belong to 1972 & 1973 Darts.
That’s cool
Tip : go to the cheap shop ( dollar store ) and get paint brushes they are invaluable when vaccuming up I use a Bannister brush to clean out the Ute with the vacuum.
Ok thank you
Please keep the slant 6. They run forever as long as they are taken care of. Good clean up video. Like to see it on the road.
Thank you
I just want to say thank you for being so down to earth. And not acting like a big shot. You guys are my kind of people. And your kids seem like they’re very nice kids to. Most of all your trust in God and go to church
Thank you I appreciate it I am blessed
I don't understand why YT doesn't monetize your channel and treat you a little better, I always loved that blue
Yeah it’s kinda crazy game at their will
My 1st car was a '63 Chevy Biscayne. (Air Force blue) with three on the tree and a 283 V-8. The back seat was so big it had an echo! (I'll say no more. Lol!)
That’s awesome
Cannot even begin to tell you how much I love the Dodge dart segment especially the wagon I know I'm a goofball
Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it
Your right sleeper dude . Nobody else is cleaning a car with a goat! And finishing off the day with veye-ennyas and a RC cola! That dart would look good with the rear wheel s channeled with a set of fat ole casings. Maybe with some chrome cragers on it!
Good idea
Look at how he replies to all what a down to earth fellow your a cut above brother thank you!
Thank you
The old rag in the vent to keep cold air out and keep ice cold water in winter from dripping on your ankle. Had to do it in 68 Dart. My left ankle is still froze and that was 1985.
That’s funny
Love all the 60's cars myself, l was seeing some patina'd red and white stripes on the roof in my mind. Love the family friendly content and maybe the boy baby goat could be Bam Bam.
Thank you good idea
Love your dart love her original battle scars. The car is worth rebuilding it's a two door wish they took the time to build a real metal car still without air bags. The ancestors that built this car put class in this classical built like a military. Thank you for sharing your car and family and your animals they make the whole video awesome. God bless you
Thank you I agree
Love this car just love it. The colour is still amazing after sitting so long. Wa wa would look pretty good travelling down the road in this when she has a license. The envy of everyone. Thank you for sharing stay safe!
Thank you
That Vacuum cleaner is astounding it hoovers up Everything ...
It does great
The last full set of hub caps that you found are off about a 63 Ply Valiant. I use to have one and recognized them right away. I think a good name for Rocky's kids are Stone and Pebbles.
Ok thank you
I was just getting ready to ask where is Rocky at and he showed up to give his cleaning up approval it always good to see Old Rocky I tell you what man y'all did a good job cleaning that car up I don't understand how people let them get in that shape but I know one thing you did a good job cleaning it up nice video keep up the good work and can't wait for the next one
Thank you. Yes Rocky is a true Forman just swings by from time to time when he feels like it
3-on-the-tree is always fun to drive. I have a '61 Dodge Seneca 2 door with a slant 6, 3-on-the-tree. Very Rare.
Nice
Another awesome video when you pulled the rag from the vent on the floor you transported me back to 1972 my dad had an old Chevy and in the winter time he would put a towel in there so the cold air would not come in . Thank you so much for this wonderful videos. God Bless .
That’s funny . Glad you enjoyed it thanks for watching
Wow that's a sweet little ride. Be nice to bring her back to roadworthy condition. Nice job on the cleanup.
Thank you I agree
Easy way to get an engine running that doesn't have much compression is to put heavy gear oil in the cylinders. I have done it in the passed and worked great. Once the engine starts the rings free up and it is good to go.
Thank you
Right hand left hand lugs was thought to keep them loosening up with a moving wheel.
Ok thank you
Our twin Grand toddlers actually liked this video a lot, watching intently. They usually only want horse videos. Suddenly, at the 12:50ish point, they got excited by noticing the horse trailer in the far background. 🐂😺😘
That’s funny
This car is a beauty. Love the material on the inside it's absolutely gorgeous.
Yes it is thank you
In these old cars I loved pulling out the backseats to see if any treasures are there
Yeah I probably should have
That Dart is in a lot better condition than it seemed in the beginning. New floor pans and a fender will have it well on it's way. I have a feeling all of those mats and carpet pieces kept the floor wet most of the time or they would be as solid as the rest of the car. I used to think floor pans was a big deal until I'd seen them replaced. Not a big job for a good body shop.
Yes I agree
That would be a cool dragcar, with a 225, hot cam and triple webers!
And 3 on the floor, hurst style shifter! Epic i tell you!
Thank you
Hi from uk josh and all👋👍 talk about the flintstone (feet thru footwell 😂) and yeah all the stuff in this one would of defo been few pounds in the trunk but you guys got it 👌 thats a nice silvery blue under bonnet/hood and the seats etc came up much better than I thought👍👌 you and ralphie really shine these up👌 good stuff guys 👍 thanks for your time and be safe see you soon guys 👍👋
Thank you it surprised me too
It's amazing how you bring these cars back to life, that car there has seen better days. Enjoy the Vienna sausages and the RC Cola.
Thank you
Great showmanship eating, mostly sharing, Vienna sausages! You guys are wonderful to watch, so warm and open. Rocky is getting himself into the show, too! Thanks for the video!
Thank you
You made a world of difference in the engine bay, and the rest of the is a lot better than it was. The old cars do have more personality than the new ones. As hard as it was to get it to even run, it running real good.
Thank you it surprised me
Thanks for the video sleeperdude I’m like a kid on Saturday morning waiting for them cartoons 😂 your the best brother
That’s hilarious
wow !! it looks 100 % better !! sounds exactly like our Valiants over here in Australia, & a lot of the interior & some panels look the same or similar... great cars they were.... at least you don't have to fix the floors (there aren't any lol).... that blue colour really pops though... needs a muffler to help it run better.... i love when you drive them around the property... i do the same with my cars... & don't worry about number of projects... it keeps you OCCUPIED... & also the kids.... great stuff....
That’s cool . I was surprised how well it cleaned up
That DeWalt vacuum will suck a golf ball through a garden hose!!! That ol Dart is coming back to life! Maybe a good name for Rockys boy....Balboa? maybe Stony? since you have a Pebbles!🤔 Oh and a little bit of did you know on that Dodge emblem. The tri pointed shaped emblem in the center of the hood is called a Fratzog! Dumb info I know but I find that stuff interesting on these old cars!
Interesting, thank you
"I can see the air in that casing" love you guys this is the best😆😆😆😆😆🐐
Oh yeah I really enjoyed the video the old Dodge Dart cars I remember very well. I too wish they made cars like that today. I showed the little goats to my Wife and of course Rocky and the rest of the herd. She says they all are so cute. I think you have the best channel on youtube mate its educational with mechanic work and shows how you and our family are living a fantastic life and doing things together, good stuff. I am always looking forward to your next video. Y'all be safe and say hello to Rocky and his crew for us. Until next time dude, may God bless.
Thank you so much really appreciate it
Another is washed up. Cars are looking good. Ready to see brake work and new casings and hoops. I got too many projects too. Just waiting for the weather to start cooperating. One day it is 80 and the next it is 40. Got to get with finishing up some things on my 75 Torino and get it on all 4 tires so I can get to my cam swap,2 bbl to 4bbl swap, get a tune up done,and change the oil. So I can start working on my 99 Dodge Ram 5.2L,change the heads on it. So I can start driving it.
Sounds fun
I thought it was black! Turns out its blue. Cool car, 2 dr stick. I like 3 pedals. Just put a 4bbl and headers . Maybe a little cam. A hurst shifter. New brakes,Fix the rot, could be a nice little hot rod. Maybe redo the front seat and carpets. Just clear coat the thing.
Thank you
She cleaned up rather well. Would make a fun car for someone once you get some things fixed. Great video
Thank you
Cotton for the full white one
And cinnamon for the boy with his color dusting 👍
👍
