That 71 Newport wouldn't have drawn a second look right out of the showroom back in the day. Fifty years down the pike, we gear heads are in a swoon. Kudos to Agent 6667 for a superb and sensitive resurrection of this now bada$$ Mopar. Amazing!
Yes, in its day the Newport was a humdrum car. Nowadays, there seems to be such a fascination for ugly SUVs, crossovers and trucks. What's happened? We're going backwards.
@@saddoncarrs6963 - yeah man, definitely seems like it, doesn’t it? And to me, cars and vehicles in general just are not what they used to be, I just don’t like any vehicle newer than mid 80’s, they just don’t do anything for me! And a lot of vehicles, they may be built here in the USA, somewhere, but most of the components to them are not US made, or at least the material that the stuff is made out of is not US made! What a bunch of horse hockey that is too! ( well I said USA made, I mean N. America)!
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 The important thing is she's up and about. You did a phenomenal job in 2 1/2 months on an old beast that was left for dead in a field. It was inspiring and a treat to watch.
I bet! They were massive, but very pretty cars. What other car could you put enough beer between the radiator support and the front bumper to hold a big party?! 8-))
Nick's Garage!! Yes! You are always working Nick, but somehow you found a bit of time to check out Cold War Motors! Two great Canadian Chrysler guys, two guys who love cars! I think this is amazing!
Maybe we should change the name of Winter Beater Challenge to Winter Geezer Challenge where we druel over 4 door tanks that we wouldn't be caught dead in 40 years ago and now we would kill for! Good job Myles!
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 fantastic job Myles! Kudos on your choice of sweet Mopar land yachts! That's what I started out with in the early 80s with my first car,72 Pontiac Catalina with a 400. Another was a 73 Town & Country station wagon with a 440 and the lovely wood grain side stickers and of course the cheesy plastic moldings, lol! Just awful! But so bad and campy that it's great! Lol! Your 383 sounds lumpy cam and healthy for sure,wonderful job on her front to back sir!!! Even though this video is from a year ago, I hope you're still enjoying her today ! Thanks for sharing your treasures with us!
It's probably a mix of the new car crowd, people who insist on doing frame up restos, and people who don't realize that Barrett-Jackson and Mecum are only options for the extremely wealthy.
I will never get why anyone types negative stuff just keep going? “Community not Competition “ Hell my channel is nothing like this and CWM was one of the reasons we started ours! Lol Cheers to Scott Frankers and the all the Agents!
Sorry Scott, that Chrysler Newport is the winter beater winner. It sounds and looks fantastic. It's a real credit to Miles. You've done a good job on the R5, but the Newport is a wow!! Rover restoration is looking good too.
I was with my parents when they bought their new 72' Newport, we took a few cross country vacations in it. In 78 my brother hit a telephone pole in it head on, it broke the pole and he drove the car home.
Someone commented about getting the most laughs from this channel... that certainly extends to the comments! (@orange70383, I hope your brother came out ok.) The Mopars were tough... around '80 buddy demo-derbied a '66ish Belvedere, nothing could touch it. V8 and 3 on the column. Stupid minor mechanical problem kept it out of the final heat. I felt sad watching it get battered... it was in very good shape, better (then) than many of the cars Scott starts with.
As I watch Coldwar Motors I can't help but wonder, "Why are all my favorite TH-cam channels in Canada?" Scott's mad sheetmetal skills and comentary / narration keep me entertained no matter the car being rebuilt or repaired. His '60 Plymouth is the most amazing transformation I have ever seen. DD Speedshop feeds my skilled hacker desires. Brent of Halfass Kustoms can glue anything together and make it Kool. Penny's, evan Buckin Billy Ray. There are many more great Canadian channels I could list. Myles' Newport is sick! Just a perfect beater with Cop Car vibe.
"the lowering, the chop"??? NAY Looks, stock to me.....Those big Chrysler's sat pretty low... and with their length...a GOOD looking optical illusion. But the front ride height is critical to tire wear....
I was a teenager in the 1980s and saw lots of old Mopars get made into derby cars. It seemed like there were a million of them around in northwest Kansas/southwest Nebraska. Now you NEVER see one even sitting, let alone running well and driving. GREAT JOB MYLES!!!! Thanks Scott and the rest of the agents for an hour of Saturday evening learning and entertainment.
Wow, high fives to Myles on the huge success of his Beater Build. Love that rumpityrump idle and the big block at highway song! Incredible coolness. Fuzzy memory but didn't we say back in the 70s a car that cool was "BOSS!". Well, maybe...maybe not. Outstanding job Myles! And high fives for your R5 "beater" passing to plate legal. Amazing "beater" that looks showroom. No one but Scott would call a class recon job a beater. Crisp salute to all on this weeks successes!
Is that a 1971 newport royale? Unc bought one new. July 1971. And was na boat y with a 360 sucked gas and he dumped it in 73 when gas spiked to 47bcentsva gallon
Congratulations to Myles on getting his Newport put together and ready for the road. Looks to me like this Newport would be a good candidate for some sheet metal resto work to make the body look as good as the mechanicals are.
Thanks William! Scott has offered to assist with cleaning up the quarters, and we will likely go down that road. For now, i'm switching over to my 66 Sport Fury
Oh my GOD. I just love Dean. I was actually laughing out loud at the seat segment. Woke my cat up and everything. Just great. BEST CHANNEL EVER ON TH-cam . Weather your into cars or not.
That Newport is amazing. I knew a guy once who bought a 4dr hardtop just like it off an old woman, still had the plastic on the interior. He drove it for two years as a beater and never saw it again. Didn't care about it, smoked in it etc. Glad this one was saved.
And the winner is , , , , , , , Myles Industries 71 Newport . Steelies and Dog Dish . Can`t be beat . I want one . Great show. The R5 turned out fine .
Man ! , I have to commend Agent 6667 on a great job of putting in hours of dirty hard work, but it paid off, the outcome is awesome on his 1971 Chrysler Newport V-8 383, 727 Torqueflite. What a nice old cruiser she is, but stab the go pedal and she will get too it. Very nice work Agent 6667
Thank you for the reply. I apologize for spelling your name wrong. I had 2 1968 Charger R/Ts years ago and the original engine paint you used sent my mind back in time. Your attention to detail is amazing. Great work.
Thanks soooooooooooo much for your taking time to show the progress on the Lecar!!!! I’ve had 5 French cars over the years. 3 Peugeot’s and 2 R-5’s. My favorite was a 1960 403 and the next favorite was my last French car, a 1982 R-5. My 403 logged over 257,000 miles with no major problems. My R-5 road like a DS-21 but it got over 40 mpg all the time. Wish I could find a cream puff R-5 before I die. Can only find rust buckets. Thanks for your fine and very interesting videos you guys!!!!
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 Congratulations, Myles ! I Love the Newport ! I have a 64 Newport wagon that's extremely solid and straight that I got from Arizona. Ditching the 361 for a stroker 400 ( 230-1 72 truck block ). I am also adding all the 64 New Yorker grille and emblems with NOS 63 taillights, as I hate 64 taillights.
Congratulations to Scott and Agent 6667 for getting their cars done while it was still winter. Both cars look cool! It would be hard to pick a winner, but since Renault 5's were such crappy cars to begin with, I have to give the win to Scott. Scott should take care of the 5 because I suspect they will become rare in the future, because they were not built to last like a Chrysler. The Wagoneer is cool too, not sure if that was part of the competition, but that is a rare vehicle too and should be restored.
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 as an Aussie, I've never seen one of these babies in the flesh. You've done incredible work, it's a credit to you. I loved Scott's perfect "Brrrp-da brrrp-da brrrp-da" take on that sweet idle!
@@MattsScaleModels thank Matt! I'm sometimes surprised that it's done and on the road myself. It has become my errand car. I can't help but sink that pedal to the floor when I get on the highway. Sounds soo good!
The winter beater champ competition is - between the Newport and the R5 - a toss up in my mind. When at idle, the Newport sounds almost like my '39 Merc flathead V8. On the other hand, who would ever believe that (in Canada) the R5 would be anything but a pile of iron oxide in the year 2021? Back in the sixties my dad (a GM guy) tried to interest my brother and I in bringing a Dauphine back to life from a dealer's back forty (as a summer project). One look at the rust on the Renault and we turned to the '62 Wolseley sitting next to it in the field. Rebuilt the distributor and did a bit of bodywork & paint. The 6 cylinder in it was sweet; along with the leather upholstery, walnut dash & Smiths instruments... but, the 2 speed Auto, not so much! Keep up the great work you guys! I'll be sending a contribution to the Classic Darts collection soon - courtesy of some mementos of my dad. Cheers!
You are going to need some legit scoring on this year's winter beats... Cost, uniqueness, fun factor, usability, etc. Or just line them all up with the doors open and the one Frankers jumps in to go for a ride is the winner.
If Frankers is going to judge the contest insist on NO dogggie treats be within 50 feet of any vehicle. We can not have any election that even appears to be slightly shady......hum hum USA.....lol
I just hope that Agent 6667 will give the Newport an undercarriage treatment or rustproof it. I know fullsizers are good in the winter but salt and winter crud was the reason my 66 Electra was rusted beyond repair. And also my dad didn't gave it the treatment when he drove it for 8 years in the 90's. Because of that, my daily driver/winter beater Volvo 940 wagon is having the treatment every 2 years. Thanks again for the contents. Always a pleasure to watch. Cheers PS. It's hard to believe the Newport is a half century old. She sounds great
Scott it just gets better and better thanks for another entertaining saturday night here in lockdown prison in the uk stay safe exeldlent work on the rover all the best from Al
This week just like last week and the weeks before great video Scott please ask dean to dress up like herb tarlic from WKRP in Cincinnati for the next greasy flip you guy's make my night 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪heyyyyyy frankers
You should do a snow drag race to determine the winner of the winter beats contest. Patch the quarter panels and dog legs would make this into a year round daily driver, maybe to nice for salt.
Ya get that bad girl rolling to about 40 put it in 2nd shut off the ignition take your foot off the gas when you hit about 15mph turn ignition switch on you'll need to practice it should bark pretty good You can pump the pedal if you want .get the exhaust saturated Then give it some spark Don't do this with stock mufflers I think that's where cherry bomb muffs got their name?. Old stock mufflers will blow out after a while Have fun..
@@kevinjohnson5214 SHIT all it takes is running an MSD 6AL past the rev limit, And a upshift getting up the on ramp...I fucked up one day and Startled myself....My '84 F250 sounded like a GD shotgun went off.
When I saw you pull the Newport into the gas station I thought to myself “that is appropriate for that car” -- THIRSTY ‼️✅ Love old Mopars 👍 At 36:40 when Scott said, “leather seats with no headliner”, I busted up, man❗️
Oh, and thank you for noticing and remarking about the nice 240 move into traffic in front of you on your drive in Myles Newport. My 85 240 appreciates the breed's recognition! 😉👍
Not only does the Newport win Winter Beater, but she gets her own category: Winter Beast! I smiled every time she accelerated - a Tesla owner will never know that joy. When you've got to deflate tires to get the wheels mounted on the rear axle, you know you're on to something special - & that rake! Economy cars beware! This may be premature, but congratulations Myles!
The Newport is just my type of car, ALL FUN! I’ve always liked the base cars better than some exotic. I love having a basic car that’ll bust someone’s ass! Newport is a great sleeper and the police caps are just perfect! I so want to be an agent that can ramble with Dean! Thank you again for another episode!
That Newport looks like something the serial killer would drive in a movie.Lol Plenty of room in the trunk! Great job as ever guys.Well done getting the ‘ beater’ on the road.
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 Well my other thought was you could be the hit man who drove the black charger in Bullitt. It’s something about the glasses . Have fun hanging the tail in the snow man. 😉👍
Myles MoparfreaK and that is what most people who buy new cars don't understand! An old car that you have put yourself into just means so much more than just transportation! I have an emotional attachment to a 72 Impala that was willed to me by my uncle, it was his/my moms parents car. I remember many family trips in that car because it could haul all 6 of my family we took it instead of my parents Monte Carlo. Every time I get it out it is like stepping back in time and that is especially good right now with all the problems going on in the States of America, notice I left out United!
Hi Cold War Guys and mini frankers. Myles Newport turned out fine. Cammy. One might dare to say paint! He supplied some great content. I always find what I was looking for a while later when I'm looking for something else. Carb kit. Renault Le Car is a beautiful collector car now. Many hours on the Rover, Dean always lightens the load.
Really enjoyed the video work and work in general that Agent 6667 did! His ride is awesome and brings back memories of my dads 1971 Fury 2 he bought from the Canadian, Alberta, Government, where he worked for years at a base in a town called Beaverlodge. It was government Green and was ordered extra non options in the thing. Not even a Radio. Nothing. The government once tried to at least look as if they cared about frivolous spending of tax payers money. LOL. We put in an under dash 8-Track player so we could play our Boston and Carpenters music. Okay there was Anne Murray too. We were after all pure hockey lovin Canadians! That was in about 1976. He drove the 318 for years and sold it still going strong. Sweet Cam and sound on that beauty Mike! Thanks! Oh and love those "COP ISSUE" Hub caps on that beauty eh? Awesome job and car Agent 6667!
WOW WOW...Congrats big time for agent 6667 what a rebuild OF THAT 383...Gotta love the 383 engine that helped made Chrysler what it is today.....l see my good friend Nick of Nick Garage put a big like in here for agent 6667.....Winter beaters goes to the Newport but of course it does....You bunch of guy's are the best....Thanks ever so much and just one more cheers for Dean lol.....Here in Kentucky the temp is 45* degrees fahrenhite at 10:10 PM................!
Dear Kurt MC These two oldtimer cars are extremely different (and not only because of the sound). Nevertheless: For me it's definitely more a kind of a remis respectively draw. Both great guys put a lot of work into their winter beater and they will not stop until the cars are completely finished (at least I hope so). ;-) Best regards, luck and health.
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 yes I have to agree with you. Scott kind of steered us toward giving Miles some extra credit, so I guess that’s what I was doing. So ur right Scott put just as much if not more work in the Reno as miles did!!!
Dear @@mylesmoparfreak6562 Thanks for replying. I really hope that you will repair/close the rusted out rear side ends some day (so that no salt and humidity can come in. 1a) I also hope that there will not be too much muffler on the Newport (destroying the fantastic sound). Maybe some simple straight pipes will be enough!? 2) Sport Fury? What Sport Fury? Maybe the car that could already be seen in your workshop? 3) I just finished watching some older CWM vids and realized that this great black pickup truck (driveway dent repaired by great Scott) is yours too. Congrats, very well done, very impressive result. Best regards, luck and health.
It will be tough to choose a winner in this year's winter beater challenge, all the entries are such radically different examples of what winter beats can be.
"Two and one half months of my life and I have a driver" . Those words by Miles ring so close to home. The end of the episode was just one huge grin. Thank you.
If agent 6667 doesn't win WBC, he should at least take the chop trophy title, the Newport sure sounds rowdy. Great work Myles! Scott should get the Minter Beater Challenge title ✌
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 not to diminish Scott's efforts, but I liken him being in the competition to Grekzky playing road hockey against the neighbourhood kids...Bahaha
Glass raised to Myles not only for saving one but getting her running so sweetly. She was either some government agency's car or bought new by an old guy. 👍🍻
Big thumbs up to Myles on the Newport & good call on the bulkhead connector working on it now while you are there, may save you issues down the road. Love the suspension drop too! Rims are very cool too.
What great production values! At 34:05, the transition to the winter beaters opens in the shape of a Mopar pentastar, to reveal Myles' awesome Newport.
Except for its massive thirst, I still think Jim's Grand Wagoneer wins. The other two beaters will get you most places, the Wagoneer will get you anywhere and everywhere! That said, the Renault is fwd (surprisingly good in snow), small and nimble while Myles' Newport epitomizes the term "Winter Beater". Please remember that Le Cars were amazingly powerful for a Cinq, 1.3 liters instead of about 1 liter.
@@mrdanforth3744 I had a Renault Alliance (R9) with the 1.4. The 'family' version, altho' the R9 has a transverse engine. Awesome car for its strengths. Speed wasn't one of the strengths.
@@boggy7665 When I worked in a garage in the 80s we had a customer who used an Alliance to commute 160 miles a day. He ran up over 200,000 miles without a breakdown or major repair. Mind you he serviced it by the book which means it was in every few weeks for an oil change, or some kind of service but it never let him down.
Forgot to add one more thing. Tell Niles to check to see of the 727 TF has a vacuum modulator. The lack of "cam vacuum" may be causing his shifting issues. I would do that before he starts adjusting any of the bands.
I's have to say that the Fiat 128 was also very influential in changing mainstream auto building. Not a 3 door but launched in 1969 vs. 1971 for the R5. Both were big sellers in Europe. Loved the '71 Newport but I'd have to have some sort of muffler. Thanks for another episode!
I can't pick a winner for the WB challenge because you both did an amazing job guys with the R5 and the Newport too! So nice to see them back in business! Congrats!
I won the winter beater contest with a Dodge Magnum wagon with a hemi engine. I had to buy 4 tires and buff out the headlight lenses. Its got glasspacks and a performance chip in the computer. A muscle car disguised as a station wagon.

Ditching the 361 for a stroker 400 ( 230-1 72 truck block ). I am also adding all the 64 New Yorker grille and emblems with NOS 63 taillights, as I hate 64 taillights.
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 where did you find those, I really want a set, I hate to be a copy cat but man!!
the mats came with my 66 Chev truck that i built last winter. sorry, dont kno where to find em
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 I have been on a search and unfortunately no go, you have a rare piece man I shall start the bidding ant 100 bucks eh?
Congratulations to Scott and Agent 6667 for getting their cars done while it was still winter. Both cars look cool! It would be hard to pick a winner, but since Renault 5's were such crappy cars to begin with, I have to give the win to Scott. Scott should take care of the 5 because I suspect they will become rare in the future, because they were not built to last like a Chrysler. The Wagoneer is cool too, not sure if that was part of the competition, but that is a rare vehicle too and should be restored.
I admire the amount of time, and effort that breathed new life into a neglected car. It's such a cool ride! I'd love to cruze in that car!
Thanks Neal! Man she just floats down the highway, and with the 3.23s, has lots of power!
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 as an Aussie, I've never seen one of these babies in the flesh. You've done incredible work, it's a credit to you. I loved Scott's perfect "Brrrp-da brrrp-da brrrp-da" take on that sweet idle!
@@MattsScaleModels thank Matt! I'm sometimes surprised that it's done and on the road myself. It has become my errand car. I can't help but sink that pedal to the floor when I get on the highway. Sounds soo good!
I think the Le Newport is leading the Winter Beater Challenge.
Thanks Mark!
Lots of smiles Miles 😁
lol, happy you have enjoyed the ol Port, thanks Mike!
The winter beater champ competition is - between the Newport and the R5 - a toss up in my mind. When at idle, the Newport sounds almost like my '39 Merc flathead V8. On the other hand, who would ever believe that (in Canada) the R5 would be anything but a pile of iron oxide in the year 2021? Back in the sixties my dad (a GM guy) tried to interest my brother and I in bringing a Dauphine back to life from a dealer's back forty (as a summer project). One look at the rust on the Renault and we turned to the '62 Wolseley sitting next to it in the field. Rebuilt the distributor and did a bit of bodywork & paint. The 6 cylinder in it was sweet; along with the leather upholstery, walnut dash & Smiths instruments... but, the 2 speed Auto, not so much! Keep up the great work you guys! I'll be sending a contribution to the Classic Darts collection soon - courtesy of some mementos of my dad. Cheers!
You are going to need some legit scoring on this year's winter beats... Cost, uniqueness, fun factor, usability, etc. Or just line them all up with the doors open and the one Frankers jumps in to go for a ride is the winner.
I agree.
Points but Frankers choosing from the top 2
If Frankers is going to judge the contest insist on NO dogggie treats be within 50 feet of any vehicle. We can not have any election that even appears to be slightly shady......hum hum USA.....lol
Frankers knows best
🚬🐕
Myles’ Newport is great and the R5 is so well restored but in all honesty I think Jim’s Jeep is best in the snow so that’s where my vote goes.
That Newport is the epitome of cool. It's like a next generation Christine...
I just hope that Agent 6667 will give the Newport an undercarriage treatment or rustproof it.
I know fullsizers are good in the winter but salt and winter crud was the reason my 66 Electra was rusted beyond repair. And also my dad didn't gave it the treatment when he drove it for 8 years in the 90's.
Because of that, my daily driver/winter beater Volvo 940 wagon is having the treatment every 2 years.
Thanks again for the contents. Always a pleasure to watch.
Cheers
PS. It's hard to believe the Newport is a half century old. She sounds great
Miles, I’m not even driving the Newport and I have a smile on my face. Absolute fantastic job, congratulations.
Thanks Robert! you are too kind! I'm happy shes "done" for now
Well agent 6667 just won the winter beater challenge! So awesome to see that Newport get saved from the demo derby or scrapper!
Hey thanks Carter Auto restyling! I hate the demo derby killers too, and love an old c-body!
Great work Myles! Old Mopars don't usually have much broken after sitting for years but EVERYTHING needs some kind of attention.
Coldwarmotors, best halftime show ever. WOW great job on the 71 Newport.
Very kind Ken, thank you!
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 You should start a TH-cam channel.
Scott it just gets better and better thanks for another entertaining saturday night here in lockdown prison in the uk stay safe exeldlent work on the rover all the best from Al
Love the dog dish hubcaps on the Newport; pure MOPAR !
I love them too, thanks for cops, we got a sweet wheel design, thanks gbhokie!
When 6667 was passing that gas station, I think i saw the car trying to pull in, just like a dog pulls over to a fire hydrant.
Lol, too funny! It knows what it wants
Scott I hope your sister is super greatful for all that restoration work your doing . Holy cow your doing amazing work . 👍👌
Myles attention to detail makes him a great mechanic. He did that car so quickly!
Very kind, thank you L Moore!
Love the sound of a Mopar Big Block!!!!!!!!
Thanks Dustermaniac! Sound like a bit of a Mopar fan, eh?
This week just like last week and the weeks before great video Scott please ask dean to dress up like herb tarlic from WKRP in Cincinnati for the next greasy flip you guy's make my night 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪heyyyyyy frankers
That Newport is an absolute (lock the doors and put out the lights) beast!
Very kind Pedro! just wait till ya hear the duals!
All joking aside ,it's probably a fairly rare car. Oh and the HUSLTER floor mats. Real class.
You should do a snow drag race to determine the winner of the winter beats contest. Patch the quarter panels and dog legs would make this into a year round daily driver, maybe to nice for salt.
Thanks Rich! Its def headed that way. Quarters one day soon
Myles is a Boss! But the car is begging for Cherry Bomb glasspacks.
yea, it really needs to keep some of that rumble
Ya get that bad girl rolling to about 40 put it in 2nd shut off the ignition take your foot off the gas when you hit about 15mph turn ignition switch on you'll need to practice it should bark pretty good
You can pump the pedal if you want .get the exhaust saturated
Then give it some spark
Don't do this with stock mufflers
I think that's where cherry bomb muffs got their name?.
Old stock mufflers will blow out after a while
Have fun..
@@kevinjohnson5214 SHIT all it takes is running an MSD 6AL past the rev limit, And a upshift getting up the on ramp...I fucked up one day and Startled myself....My '84 F250 sounded like a GD shotgun went off.
Thanks Sixpacfish! Well she got full 2 1/2" duals with Flo-Pro mufflers. Sounds pretty mean now!
Thanks Myles , we cent wait to hear the duels!
When I saw you pull the Newport into the gas station I thought to myself “that is appropriate for that car” -- THIRSTY ‼️✅
Love old Mopars 👍
At 36:40 when Scott said, “leather seats with no headliner”, I busted up, man❗️
lol, well hell, i wasnt gonna wait for the headliner, shes ready to roll now! thanks Mr.Diplomat!
That brown Newport with the cop center caps. That’s the best.
Will pass anything but a gas station...LOL
Thanks Wayne! Agreed! Being all one color, droped and black wheels, those Cop caps work great
@@lenscap8925 True, so true...i think it cost me $26 bucks to go 75 miles?
Oh, and thank you for noticing and remarking about the nice 240 move into traffic in front of you on your drive in Myles Newport. My 85 240 appreciates the breed's recognition! 😉👍
“Take it to your (authorized) junkyard.” 😂
Not only does the Newport win Winter Beater, but she gets her own category: Winter Beast! I smiled every time she accelerated - a Tesla owner will never know that joy. When you've got to deflate tires to get the wheels mounted on the rear axle, you know you're on to something special - & that rake! Economy cars beware! This may be premature, but congratulations Myles!
I love it! Thank you chemxfan! I get on it all the time!
Great car washes up there!!
The Newport is just my type of car, ALL FUN!
I’ve always liked the base cars better than some exotic. I love having a basic car that’ll bust someone’s ass! Newport is a great sleeper and the police caps are just perfect! I so want to be an agent that can ramble with Dean!
Thank you again for another episode!
That Newport looks like something the serial killer would drive in a movie.Lol
Plenty of room in the trunk!
Great job as ever guys.Well done getting the ‘ beater’ on the road.
Hmm, a new side gig? lol Thanks Lain!
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 Well my other thought was you could be the hit man who drove the black charger in Bullitt. It’s something about the glasses .
Have fun hanging the tail in the snow man. 😉👍
Myles appears to be the winner of the winter beater challenge...that is one bad ass Newport!
Awe thanks Mike!
The love and support is very appreciated!
You've got to give it to a guy who puts that much heart and soul into something... The Newport is a beauty .
Thanks RandahlR! I think i built an emotional relationship with the ol Port. Not much that i havent touched and repaired on her
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 Cheers.. :)
Myles MoparfreaK and that is what most people who buy new cars don't understand! An old car that you have put yourself into just means so much more than just transportation! I have an emotional attachment to a 72 Impala that was willed to me by my uncle, it was his/my moms parents car. I remember many family trips in that car because it could haul all 6 of my family we took it instead of my parents Monte Carlo. Every time I get it out it is like stepping back in time and that is especially good right now with all the problems going on in the States of America, notice I left out United!
Jake and Elwood Blues would drool over that big Newport! It looks like an old undercover police car! Sounds mean and nice and lopey at idle. Love it!!
Agreed! Thanks Danny!
Your's is the only channel I stay for the credits.
Hey thanks! I appreciate that, cheers!
Frankers looks absolutely hysterical riding with the boys 😆
That 383 in the Newport sounds so good without a muffler!
Yeah, if we could just make it idle a leeetle bit slower...I know it's about to die as it is...and that's far lower than factory spec, for a '71.
Thanks Tom!
Tune in next week when you get to hear the full dual exhaust!
@@reecenewton3097 Yep! its running around 700 rpm, then 6 and a bit when i engage drive. Not sure if i can drop it any further, lol
Hi Cold War Guys and mini frankers. Myles Newport turned out fine. Cammy. One might dare to say paint! He supplied some great content. I always find what I was looking for a while later when I'm looking for something else. Carb kit. Renault Le Car is a beautiful collector car now. Many hours on the Rover, Dean always lightens the load.
In the spring you guys should go to deans compond,With batteries and gas,and see how many old flips will start!! Love to see this!
Robert Hardwick, that would be fun to watch. Now would be good too.
Really enjoyed the video work and work in general that Agent 6667 did! His ride is awesome and brings back memories of my dads 1971 Fury 2 he bought from the Canadian, Alberta, Government, where he worked for years at a base in a town called Beaverlodge. It was government Green and was ordered extra non options in the thing. Not even a Radio. Nothing. The government once tried to at least look as if they cared about frivolous spending of tax payers money. LOL. We put in an under dash 8-Track player so we could play our Boston and Carpenters music. Okay there was Anne Murray too. We were after all pure hockey lovin Canadians! That was in about 1976. He drove the 318 for years and sold it still going strong. Sweet Cam and sound on that beauty Mike! Thanks! Oh and love those "COP ISSUE" Hub caps on that beauty eh? Awesome job and car Agent 6667!
"Winter-beater-Spec headliner! Ha!
WOW WOW...Congrats big time for agent 6667 what a rebuild OF THAT 383...Gotta love the 383 engine that helped made Chrysler what it is today.....l see my good friend Nick of Nick Garage put a big like in here for agent 6667.....Winter beaters goes to the Newport but of course it does....You bunch of guy's are the best....Thanks ever so much and just one more cheers for Dean lol.....Here in Kentucky the temp is 45* degrees fahrenhite at 10:10 PM................!
Happy Saturday night everyone in CWM land 👍😎
I think , Drum Roll”””””””””” Miles wins the Winter Beater.!!
Dear Kurt MC
These two oldtimer cars are extremely different (and not only because of the sound). Nevertheless: For me it's definitely more a kind of a remis respectively draw. Both great guys put a lot of work into their winter beater and they will not stop until the cars are completely finished (at least I hope so). ;-)
Best regards, luck and health.
👏👏👏👏👍
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 Thanks! I may slow down a bit on the Port for now. I have a 66 Sport Fury that i wanna get on the road too
@@Chr.U.Cas1622 yes I have to agree with you. Scott kind of steered us toward giving Miles some extra credit, so I guess that’s what I was doing. So ur right Scott put just as much if not more work in the Reno as miles did!!!
Dear @@mylesmoparfreak6562
Thanks for replying. I really hope that you will repair/close the rusted out rear side ends some day (so that no salt and humidity can come in.
1a) I also hope that there will not be too much muffler on the Newport (destroying the fantastic sound). Maybe some simple straight pipes will be enough!?
2) Sport Fury? What Sport Fury? Maybe the car that could already be seen in your workshop?
3) I just finished watching some older CWM vids and realized that this great black pickup truck (driveway dent repaired by great Scott) is yours too. Congrats, very well done, very impressive result.
Best regards, luck and health.
It will be tough to choose a winner in this year's winter beater challenge, all the entries are such radically different examples of what winter beats can be.
If Scott can make that little LeCar plow thru the deep snow I think he wins! But the Wagoneer is my fav. ride though!
"Two and one half months of my life and I have a driver" . Those words by Miles ring so close to home. The end of the episode was just one huge grin. Thank you.
Thanks Xombi! Short pain for huge gain! and now it's play time!
Hope you're projects coming along as well
If agent 6667 doesn't win WBC, he should at least take the chop trophy title, the Newport sure sounds rowdy. Great work Myles! Scott should get the Minter Beater Challenge title ✌
Thanks Trev! Agreed, the Renault 5 has turned out like new, but the Port chop!! wow
Frankers is enjoying the ride i love the Newport👍👍
Killing me softly with all these Newports!
I love that newport!
Thanks Incognito!
I love Jim's Jeep, but Myles wins the trophy this year. Nice job agent 6667!
Thanks Randall! I agree! lol
@@mylesmoparfreak6562 not to diminish Scott's efforts, but I liken him being in the competition to Grekzky playing road hockey against the neighbourhood kids...Bahaha
Glass raised to Myles not only for saving one but getting her running so sweetly. She was either some government agency's car or bought new by an old guy. 👍🍻
Love Cold War motors and Newport’s baby got back. Great job on all the winter beats
Thanks stockcat! Love standing behind the Port and listening to the Chop...until my eyes start to sting from the exhaust, lol
That Newport is pretty sweet. Love that V8 grumble.
Ooh, nothing like a big block rumble, thanks William!
Loves these type of 70's cars!
Big thumbs up to Myles on the Newport & good call on the bulkhead connector working on it now while you are there, may save you issues down the road. Love the suspension drop too! Rims are very cool too.
Good to see Miles has the requisite cracked windshield in his beater!
Oh def! It's clean in front of my view, so im not changing it!
Newport needing some gears! 🛠🇺🇸🛠
Well, i always want more gear, but then hate the highway. As Scott lives 30 mins away, the 3.23s were a decent compromise. Thanks Glenn!
Myle’s Newport takes a commanding lead!
Thanks Charles! My newest fun ride!
What great production values! At 34:05, the transition to the winter beaters opens in the shape of a Mopar pentastar, to reveal Myles' awesome Newport.
Except for its massive thirst, I still think Jim's Grand Wagoneer wins. The other two beaters will get you most places, the Wagoneer will get you anywhere and everywhere!
That said, the Renault is fwd (surprisingly good in snow), small and nimble while Myles' Newport epitomizes the term "Winter Beater".
Please remember that Le Cars were amazingly powerful for a Cinq, 1.3 liters instead of about 1 liter.
Canadian LeCars all came with the 'big' 1400cc motor compared to 800cc in Europe. They had good performance for their size and a ball to drive.
@@mrdanforth3744 I had a Renault Alliance (R9) with the 1.4. The 'family' version, altho' the R9 has a transverse engine. Awesome car for its strengths. Speed wasn't one of the strengths.
@@boggy7665 When I worked in a garage in the 80s we had a customer who used an Alliance to commute 160 miles a day. He ran up over 200,000 miles without a breakdown or major repair. Mind you he serviced it by the book which means it was in every few weeks for an oil change, or some kind of service but it never let him down.
@@mrdanforth3744 Dang, you're right! It was a 1.4 liter engine in North America. Memory failed me.
Forgot to add one more thing. Tell Niles to check to see of the 727 TF has a vacuum modulator. The lack of "cam vacuum" may be causing his shifting issues. I would do that before he starts adjusting any of the bands.
Clark Richter
No modulator on a 727. The kickdown linkage determines the shit points and shift quality.
Newport sounds like a very healthy 383 !
I's have to say that the Fiat 128 was also very influential in changing mainstream auto building. Not a 3 door but launched in 1969 vs. 1971 for the R5. Both were big sellers in Europe. Loved the '71 Newport but I'd have to have some sort of muffler. Thanks for another episode!
Glad to see the Renault passed inspection. Here in Texas the only thing that has to pass is the check you give for the fee.
The Winter Beater Challenge @48:01, So far The 1971 Chrysler Newport has my vote.
"Take it to your Renault dealer for service"... And no dealer? "Take it to the junkyard! Audience cheers." Audience splits a gut!!!
I can't pick a winner for the WB challenge because you both did an amazing job guys with the R5 and the Newport too! So nice to see them back in business! Congrats!
Dean the mover and shaker and Agent 6667 reaching rockstar status.
Hahahaha, Thanks Glen! I dont know about that, but maybe a touch cooler. Glad you liked it!
I won the winter beater contest with a Dodge Magnum wagon with a hemi engine. I had to buy 4 tires and buff out the headlight lenses. Its got glasspacks and a performance chip in the computer. A muscle car disguised as a station wagon.
