- In this video, I restore the paint on the roof and trunk of my 1960 Impala , she gets new exhaust along with my dads 1960 el Camino, she gets a new radio, rear window trim piece, license plate door and wiper washer kit. The 1946 international gets new tires. Dad and me also fly on the Ford tri motor airplane from 1929.

Wow! I would never have thought there was paint under the rust.
How doe that even work?! Like the top clear coat rusted? I've seen some nasty clear coats but they were just yellow and cracked, never rusted.
Maybe that's some metal flaking in the top coat?
@@DARKredDOLLAR Clear coat was not used in '60. Didn't come along until decades later.
@Jasona1976 so what is that brown stuff on top... paint... somebody painted it rust brown ...
It's so awesome that you're getting recognition. You've earned it, dude.
* Hey Travis & Dad ! Haven't check in in a while. Everything is coming along nice. Personally I would have used the red rims to add a little "Pop" to the old gal (46IH) I still love that one. I subscribed to follow her when you dug her out of that yard. I want to thankyou for the Trimotor Ride. Seen a lot of those in museums but never footage from inside during a flight. Couldn't believe how much paint was hiding under the rust on the 60 Imp. I believe that color combo is called Ermine White & Horizon Blue. Both sound great with the new exhaust. Cheers ! 🍻👊😎👍🍻
Wow, you blew my mind with the roof and trunk!! I can't believe there was color under that apparently solid rust! I gotta go sand on my old F150, it looks the exact same!
@@MaxGiganteumso what is that brown stuff on top... paint... somebody painted it rust brown ...
it's rust???? I feel like I'm 5 and just saw Santa...
rust on paint? I'd be less surprised if a UFO landed in front of me...
stained the oxidized paint .... holy crap.... never heard of that
@@MaxGiganteum that was gigantic... now could this have been avoided if they had clear coated their paint back then??? as I understood clear coating wasn't done back then
@MaxGiganteum I'm clear on the run off from the roof... the rust on the roof could come from tiny pits in the paint and then it spreads over the entire surface like moss over a rock. is that correct?
is there anything in the paint itself that could rust over decades? it's actually a serious question coz I have seen run off stains but not from a rusted over intact roof. that why I'm a bit puzzled over this roof.
@@MaxGiganteum peace indeed...
who woulda thought old paint could be so interesting....
Wow, rust on top of paint! That blows my mind. Great job. ❤
Love what you did to the Impala. Its looking very good. Thanks for the video and glad you survived the Ford aero plane😄 ride !
I have a sister who works in Dearborn, Michigan. Is cool that plane was built there 😊
The truck looks awesome with the while wheels and the car is coming along great
I vote for leaving those whitewalls!!!!! It really sets the truck off. Nice job of cleaning up the paint on the Impala. I'm like you I never would have thought there was any paint under there.
Those tires look absolutely perfect the way they are excellent choice!
I'm amazed. Solid rust covering almost solid paint? Wouldn't have believed it. 🤔🇬🇧👍
Hello Travis and Dad: The El Camino looks and sounds totally bad ass. Saving the Impala's paint was definitely worth the effort, now go the distance with Flood to keep it that way. The IHC pick up truck looks great but needs a set of genuine IHC hubcaps to complete the deal. Terrific episode! Thanks for sharing!
you betcha!@@MaxGiganteum
I'd love to see you do a full replacement on your headliner. Mine is cloth and wearing through in places. Not falling down into my head or anything. Just showing it's 64 year age!
I got a "Fix Your Chevy" book with my car. The people who bought it kept it all this time. Shows how to do anything and everything! 👍
Had a couple of service receipts. First service was 5/1960. Was purchased at Edge Chevrolet in Baker, Oregon! Lol Baker isn't very big even now. I can't imagine how tiny of a town it must have been in 1960 ! Lol
That book and these receipts are pretty darn co0ol! One stick-on oil change tag on the door jam too. These are little treasures of these old classics! 💯
Trust me when I tell you I am riding with you whenever you make a video about your 1960 Impala. Too bad I'm in Beaverton, OR and you're in Tucson, AZ. If you were closer I'd drive mine over for us to have the "Sisters" have a chance to catch up! Lol
I wonder if they both came off the same assembly line...
Co0ol channel, Bro!
The white walls on the international look great, she deserves nice tyres ❤
I would never have thought the paint would be under there. That Impala looks amazing. And now, sounds amazing too.
That old Tri Motor tail dragger had to have been a hoot to fly around in. I've seen one at a museum, but I don't remember which museum.
Your Dad's El Camino, that metal work on the truck bed is just phenomenal. Especially when compared to the IH with it's basic sheet steel bed.
I miss having a car where you can sit on the fenders. Where the car is designed to be driven with the windows down. One of these days I'll find another 67 Fury III.
Very cool that you got to meet Chris, Jen, and Gun from NNKH. I think Pole Barn Garage was at the DTD as well. He took his 'Holey Goat', IIRC.
Whitewalls on a truck make it pop! It definitely stands out.
Thanks for coming to DTD, good to meet you. I was your neighbor in the dart. Check out SOS pads for cleaning up paint and glass and chrome. It's quad 0
Yeah man I remember good to meet you and yes I was using quad 0
Your dad sounds like Johnny cash so cool 😎
Amazing that the paint came back! Love the channel. Anytime you and your dad want to see the Old Pueblo Trolley museum let me know. We have lots of old iron. May even have a project for you if it's something you are into.
Omg that El Camino 😮❤❤❤❤ and that plane ❤️❤️❤️
That truck looks old school cool.
I would love to own one of these impala's, my great grand father owned a light green 4 door 1965 Impala, they are very rare here in South Africa, but it would be great to bring back the memories to my mother who learned to drove with the impala when she was 16 years old way back then
Thanks for the videos, it made my day
Greetings from South Africa

Great Work on the Impala!! Wow What a difference, and what an awesome car. Great Work Travis. I sure enjoy your channel. Old cars , Planes, and trucks!!!
Travis, if I remember correctly, mechanical car clocks evolved to a point that they would self-adjust a little bit when you reset the time, meaning, if the clock ran slow and you advance the time to correct it, the mechanism would slightly speed up the clock, after maybe several resets the clock eventually ran correctly. not sure if this was true in 1960 or not, but if your clock lacks the adjustment the '56 Caddy has, just let it run until it gets like 20 or 30 minutes behind, reset it every time it gets 20 or 30 behind and see if it starts doing better. if the interval between resets gets longer and longer, it's working!
Love the Impala and the 'Camino and together they are Rock Stars! Keep up the great content, diggin your channel!
The cars look great , sound strong and the plane was awesome!!
Great job on the paint! It looks amazing
The tyres are good quality, they are used alot in scandinavia and we have ROUGH road conditions in the winter and they still hold up great. I doubt you will have any issues with them
Wide whites a little kinky and sweet! Awesome job Travis on the Impala, way to go brother.
That tri belongs to EAA up in Osh Kosh, WI. Hour or so north of me. Glad you enjoyed your flight. They have other restored WW2 planes to see and take a flight in. Yesterday I received an email from EAA that they now have a B25 bomber for flights. Several years back I got to go up in their B17 bomber. Even had the best seat in the nose where the bomber sat. Expensive flight, they use a lot of fuel. Pilot said that if you're walking through the plane while it's in flight and you lose your balance please don't grab onto the cables along the inside of the fuselage. If you do that, you're flying the plane now.
😂 wow that’s insane
Dude I cannot believe how well that's coming back around! Awesome!
Yeah I was so surprised
@@theetravisb dude... you got lucky.... marketplace is a asylum...be glad you have a support system cause you can't do that alone.... people are dreaming on there...that car minus all the work you did is 6-8k ...for a project
And idiot me had to fall in love with a 59 caddy coupe.....🤦🤬
I think he"s married, fool, calm down
@@theetravisb you still miss the trim on the trunk above the license plate?.
Hey Travis
Both cars sound pretty awesome and it’s really cool that they’re the same year and same colour!
I wouldn’t ditch those old manifolds with the broken studs, they are easy enough to get out, if you heat the stud area on the manifold up cherry red with a torch, they’ll unscrew with some vice grips or drill and retap if they’re broken flush. Always good to have extra manifolds on hand. Love the wide whites on the truck, I have them on my 41 Ford pickup and look really cool.
D ude absolutely stunned by how well that paint came back around
and wow a ford tri motor saw one of those sell at the barret jackson
it was either one or two million it sold for
Thanks for the plane ride that was awesome
Man, I love your Impala and the way you do your blog. Go on.
Thank you Sir
Nice work on the impala git look great with its factory colors again..
Great to see you at the DT drags. Paint restoration looks awesome. Mufflers look and sons perfect. Nice job on the headliner. I think you should consider putting floors in the car. It's such a sweet ride. Had a great visit with your dad. Looking forward to your next video.
Yeah thanks for coming out was alot of fun.
Amazing "paint correction" both beautiful cars!
Man! I love classic cars but we don't have them around here in Iraq. I wish I can go back to America to buy one. You have a blessed father by the way and I like the way you work together.
Great video Travis! Love to see that 60 coming back around. Dad had a black 60 Chev Bel Air 4dr sedan back in the 1960's and my brothers and I spent a lot of time in the back seat of that car. It even had factory air conditioning (blue Chevrolet logo decal in back window that said "air conditioned") although I never remember dad turning it on. Dad was military and we went cross country a couple of times in that old car and it even spent three years In Germany before being whacked in Maryland in 1968. It was a really quiet car so your car still sounds a little loud to me. Oh, and I think your dad got the tail pipe outlets in the right place. ;-) Love your videos, keep up the good work!
Love the white walls
Awsome truck and I also love The impala to❤
I'm an Aussie but I love my American Iron..... Currently my love is my 78 IH Scout ll.... Daily driver is a Jeep and I always had old chevys IH and GM are the foundations of USA🇺🇸🏁🇦🇺
Tires on the truck looks great
Looks good with the wide whites
Car is really coming together! Truly, enjoying watching it come back to life.
Damn that Impala sounds great now (looks miles better too, still patina, but better), also didn't expect the NNKH crossover!
Theetravisb y NononsenseKnowhowst... El crosover mas esperado por toda America unida!!
I'm from Germany and the flight with the Ford tri plane was the greatest, what I ever seen. I love your cars, I love your videos!❤❤❤
Man that Impala looks so cool, sounds great to. It’s cool seeing the El Camino and the Impala together
CLR and a Scotchbrite works too, and will be more gentle on the paint.
Mater looks great!
The truck is looking great the ties look good on. Whites or all black. Whites would look good on the ElCamino or your car too
Tires look good.
I'm literally in awe how that paint came back to life. You got really lucky with that one!!
Both the Impala n' the El Camino sounds great with that new exhaust.
Great. Channel
Two beautiful impalas
Awesome
That plane is great
Amazing
Truck looks great 👍
Wow. Amazing work. Maybe rust is natures way to protect whats really underneath? Looks great.
Love it
Cool tires and rims!
Love yoor Vdeos keep up the great work.
Class
I know you like the OG hub caps , but i would like to have it with some 15x7 rally wheels and trim rings with 235 70x15 white letters on it !
That is astonishing! Rust...on TOP of paint? I convinced myself that rust just grew and displaced paint by flaking it off. Mahalo for THIS lesson! That Impala looked great with the rust...now it looks just right. That Tri-Motor flight? Absolutely wonderful! Just the look and sound of it were overwhelming. And? You got to meet Gus from NNKH! My first dog was a dachshund, and I would have flipped out to see that dog. What a perfect day! Aloha!
I think it’s amazing what people already could do with technology so long ago, almost 100 years ago! And all working ling this. I think it’s more incredible than nowadays because they started with almost nothing or way less and what have and do now is all based on something and made with more advanced technology .. back then it was all build from nothing
Everything came out beautiful on your 60 Chevy, used 00 steel wool on your windows
Very impressive..first time I have seen this .who would've thunk?..lol
Really enjoy this channel i love your passion for the older stuff and staying true to the original
would've never expected there to be paint under all that rust
I had a 1960 biscayne 283 power glide with a/c silver
Great to see you, Dad and wifey at DTDs! Keep up good work with the channel!
Thanks for coming out!
Car is looking great. Floors, maybe? I was actually looking to see if I saw nnkh ar the drags, and you actually spotted them, cool.
I think that the white walls look good on the old truck. But, I do believe that they need to go on one of the blue 60 Impalas(the Elcamino or your 4dr).
Your dad to me, sounds like Sam Elliot 😂 gets me everytime. Just found your channel and already a channel I'll keep coming to 👌.
Great video brother!
Didn't know they exported Kontio tires from here to the states. Loved the Impala series btw, want to get a '59 some day. Greeting from Finland:)
44:31 no nonsense know how😊
Very cool 😎 playn 😮😊
I need my radio on my 1970 Roadrunner repaired also. Does Michael still repair radios?
Never mind, he messed it up.
I like those Baby moons! That Impala is looking good too! Are you going to use some patch panels on those smaller holes? Lat Great Chevrolet (if they're still in business) may have a trunk pan. Hopefully you'll get lucky and find something.
Up Up and away with TWA !!
❤
On the assumption that the car was not repainted at any time in the past 50+ years it does speak to the quality of the paint job dune in the GM factory in 1960. Cheers
I was just wondering if a paper towel soaked with evapo-rust, left sitting on the rusty paint, would have taken that rust off.
In the UK that impala wouldn't be allowed on the roads, however that's because we are a small country same size as Oregon but with 15 million cars on the road
Dude the airplane is so neat to see, I’ve read about those and I’m stoked you got to ride one. Always been into cars but recently picked up an interest in early airplanes, I’m kind of a fan of Howard Hughes. Unrelated to the ford aircraft but from the same era
Howard Hughes was an interesting guy
@@theetravisb that’s for dang sure, wild times back then. By the way, I realized I hadn’t hooked up a battery in my Mercury yet, you inspired me to go test the radio lol. Boy was that something. I’ve heard your Elvis story with the Cadillac. I don’t know who it was coming out of my speaker but all they sang was “you bring me to life” and wow talk about surreal.
abraços do brasil❤
Man love that el camino and the impala. El Camino sounds amazing but I think the Impala has a clunker sound, maybe? :D I don't know, hard to tell from the recording and I think you didn't sound sold on that too. Not sure but swapping a muffler is an easy job anyway. Have fun!
That looks just like the car Mortske had...same color and everything. Good work, but I'm not a patina guy myself...I'd just do the body work and paint it back the original color...I just can't see putting all that work and time in sanding rust and it still looks like it needs a paint job. Love the El Camino, by the way. I wish somebody made a snap-in spacer ring for 15" wheels so you could use the original 14" wheel covers on 15" wheels....
Guarantee the muffler shop moved your generator out of the way to work on the drivers side manifold and they didn't route the belt correctly afterwards.
Survivor.
Did you see pole barn garage at the duct tape drags his 1970 GTO AKA The holy goat
White walls is Ol school gangster. Everything has an era. But white walls is still cool with my generation. New gen care less about white rubber, hell, white anything. Keep building!
The paint looks awesome! But for the love of god clean the dust off of the dash! I’ve been looking at several videos with an inch dust on the dash
Darn … You should thrown a 100.00 set of headers on since you had the exhaust manifolds off anyway!
Was that Irish outlaw garage driving past you when you were talking to no nonsense know how
Please please please change the carburetor with new, the plugs,wires,and a new trunk pan.
Car sounds like it’s got a blower on it! 😂
Blew me away how all that white was hiding under the rust. She's a peach.
