Will It RUN AND DRIVE 600 Miles Home?1968 Buick LeSabre 400 FORGOTTEN For 26 YEARS!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ม.ค. 2021
- My friends' parents bought this 1968 Buick LeSabre 400 Brand new in 1968. In fact, they even filled out the order sheet. When they unfortunately passed, the car just sat parked for 26 years. The 400 model has the high compression high performance 350 small block, and the turbo 400 transmission. This car is loaded with goodies, including an 8 track player! I take on the challenge of firing the old boy up again, and attempting to drive 600 miles back home!

That muffled, "Bring the thunder", from inside the car, was the best one ever. Real enthusiasm!
Amen Bentley!
A feller needs quality help now and again.
He had me laughing for sure!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 You may have damaged the boy for life !!
Jeddobb: I got a kick out of that too.
I’d rather watch this instead of any movie on Netflix. This has humor and great music. What else could a guy want? Greetings from Sweden.
There are some good Swedish channels too though! I'm Dutch but I even watch BilToKig and MotorNord even if I cant understand 80% of it. Geetings from Holland ;-)
Hej från Texas! I was just wondering which old cars someone would find in a field in sweden!
This channel any time instead of mainstream media.
@@SamM-lv8hr Im guessing its all Volvos
@@SamM-lv8hr Yeah, Volvos and Saabs most likely.
13:15 Fisher Body. That means it was built in Janesville, Wisconsin. Which means there's a good chance my grandfather worked on this very car.
My 63 Bel Air was built in Janesville, it’s a well built machine.
😎
Love the fact that your son is involved. It took the air out of me when the junk yard wouldn't let me bring my son in. My son is now an accomplished mechanic. I'm happy to see your son involved
Bentley shouting out “Bring the thunder!” was priceless! 25:27
Love this so much :)
Seriously the best!
She's a runner
Yep, my wife and I got a kick out of that also!
I lost it! So awesome!
When your kid yelled, “bring the thunder!” I had to chuckle. Teachin’ em good Derek. 👍🏻
💪💪
That was Best part of the video by far😂
You are a good father my friend!:).....
That made the video 🤣🤣
@@ViceGripGarage could a fella get a guy to buy that Roadmaster?
This is so cool. Seeing a dad with his boy working on a car is so special and important. It does my heart good to see Dad working with his boy and teaching him odds and ends. My dad was a gear head and an incredible mechanic. He was so mean and neglectful that I learn next to nothing from him. He wouldn’t teach me anything without screaming and yelling and being abusive. I would have given anything for a relationship like this with my dad. This is what memories are made if for this young man. Much respect.
Have to say Vice Grip Garage has been one of the most enjoyable channels I have stumbled across here on youtube. The commentary is prolly the best I have ever heard. So many new terms for mechanical parts, that myself as a lifelong mechanic can totally get so much joy out of. Thanks for making great videos and taking us along with you on your journey. I always look forward to a new video, gettin after those sparkalaters, fuel makin happeners, and lightning tubes. Keep up the great work!!!
Those arent what they are actually called. Would want you to be my mechanic, lmao 🤣🤣🤣
@@DG-kr8pt ummm well I'll be dipped !! yea i think we all know that captain obvious
That’s funny.

I am a 56 year old man and to this day my fondest memories are wrenching with my dad who passed away when I was 13 . When you showed Bentlee that hot wrench it brought a tear to my eyes thinking about my old man.
You are blessed, sir. I envy relationships like that. My father sparked my interest in american classic cars when I was a kid. He had a maroon 1976 Chevy Van shorty, which he turned into a camper, and a 1954 Mercury Monterey he never finished. Since I was just a child, I focused my love for american cars on plastic kits in 1/25 scale, and by reading the thoroughly made manuals, I learned the names on the operational parts as in a real car.
Reading your reply brought a tear to my eye!
@@greg1268 Now kith!
Kent, seeing his youngest human brought back the same memory for me. I'm 47 and remember being under the hood of dad's 64 Ford truck with him & by brothers.
Sorry for your loss. My Dad had a brand new 68 Buick Electra. He let me take a girl on a date in that car. Thought I was really slick
"I did somehow find a piece of carpet to lay on." Made me laugh.
My wife came in half way through and wondered why I laughed so hard when he said that! 😂😂
My dad had a 1973 Buick Lesabre. The car was wider than John Candy's ass (R.I.P.) it had a 350 in it. I helped him work on that car many times. One of the big jobs he did was replacing the cam shaft. One lobe was rounded down from a stuck hydraulic lifter. tap tap tap was louder when the engine was cold. I was the flashlight holding master back then 😂 But I learned so much from my father in general. Being a homeowner and fixing things myself, to working on my own cars today. Thanks dad and thank you for this channel. I continue to learn more and get smiles from videos like this with awesome memories of childhood.
This Buick was built when GM still cared about quality. I love old Buicks because I had one. I really enjoy your adventures.
a far cry from the Buicks they build now unfortunately 😢
I'm an Oldsmobile fan myself so I hear ya.....
@0utc4st1985 It's so sad that the Oldsmobile brand was killed off by GM. They did that brand so dirty. My favorite car was one of the last Cutlass Supreme 2-door models. It had so many "new" advances in it, that it blew my mind.
When the youngster said bring the thunder!!!! That was perfect, can’t ask for anything more awesome 🤩 that will tug on guys heart string.
When the youngun piped in with “BRING THE THUNDER!” I just knew all was well in the world even if it’s just for an hour!🤣
I love the way Derek thinks out loud, in his quirky manner of technical explaining. His boy probably learns just by being around his pop.
Omgosh....married 55 yrs to a year head...we got married right out of high school at 17 and 18....started our family of two sons....that was nearing the last few years of the sixties(67 to be exact). We watch you all the time! I did my time under the hood and under the car with my husband.....enough to know most of the sounds of trouble and what it means and all the working parts! And we can soooo relate to the things and trouble you run into!!! It's just fun to watch a younger year head!! Of course the new vehicles are pretty much out of our scope! Of course we bought a new GMC truck in 2021 and I was driving....passing a truck at 80 and heard a noise and all the lights came on....we looked at each other and I said uh oh Jerry this is bad and he agreed....we kept looking and listening while I pulled into a nearby roadside....I said that sounds like a lifter and my husband agreed! After a week of frustration we found out it was a collapsed lifter and GMC made a deal with us on a new Ford pick up! Talked your head off....sorry!! Just so much fun talking to you about cars!
"Maybe yell at it a little!?!" ... "git on there!" That youngin' is just a gem! Both of them boys are gold!
"HEYAHHHH!"
was looking for this comment! hehe. Funny little guy!
I love this show . Im in a rehab hospital after having a stroke and Derek your show has given me hours of entertainment
Thank you for giving me relief from my troubles . Paul Australia.
Get well soon, buddy
New Zealand here.. May not be in hospital, but every day feels like rehab....
revtec426 , They had to feed me and clean me (change the diapers) for a while but Im doing better now. Im out and about. Feed myself , clean myself (change my own diapers) walk around and drive some.
So get up when you can and keep moving. My heart feels your troubles. Take care.
Get well soon! Be safe!
I pray God heals u fast my friend
Some of your best work here Derek, Dont let those guys at motortrend ruin your style.
Amen and Amen!!!
THANKS FOR THE GREAT VIDEOS, WHAT A GREAT IDEA TO TAKE YOUR LAD ALONG WITH YOU, THE TIMES YOU ARE REPAIRING YOUR CARS TOGETHER WILL BE SOMETHING HE WILL LOOK BACK UPON WHEN HE IS OLDER WITH A GREAT DEAL OF PRIDE, I AM IN THE UK UNFORTUNATELY SEE VERY FEW OF THE BIG AMERICAN CARS NOW, NOT LIKE IN THE SIXTIES, NOW NEARLY EIGHTY JUST WISH I COULD SPEND TIME AMONGST THOSE GREAT CARS , MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR GREAT SENCE OF HUMOUR, ALL THE BEST TO YOURSELF AND FAMILY
PETE FROM UK.
“My youngest human that I’m responsible for...” made me laugh a bit
Derek had his Home Alone moment there as youngest human was nowhere to be seen in his new ride home.
So in this episode we will use child labour to help us get this Buic LeSabre going.

The best thing about the guy is the way he handles his kids. Giving them jobs makes them confident and responsible as well as capable. I'm sure they love it.
Take this word from me a kid. Yes I agree with this but I do not like to be overworked.
Yup I wish my dad was like him!
@@muddyblunts7187 What is wrong with you're dad
@@noxplanationgaming I bet nothing is wrong with his dad, it's just he may not be the type to work on cars
Unlikely this gentleman is a Biden supporter.
Bently is a VERY good worker, I'd keep him around!!!
Bentley is so lucky to go on the trips with you. Both my boys were at my elbow all the time fixing our 2nd hand daily drivers. I do not believe anyone will rescue the cars being built today. jim and nena in fort worth
That kiddo' yellin "BRING THE THUNDER!!" is exactly what this world needs right now
You got great road trip music.
For sure
Gives you hope for the future generation
Yeah mate, that was so good. Parenting done right
Yes sir. Things aren't looking good.
He talks to himself just like I do while working on my car. "You think I can fit under there? Probably not." This channel is pure gold. BRING THE THUNDER!!!
Look at that?!!!!;
Just found it, great fkn channel
When I do that that's not talking to myself....That's thinking out loud.
I love it man! He's got a real knack for personal coaching lol! I guess when you spend hours on end and hundreds of miles away from home, alone and on the same vehicle for extended periods of time...you tend to start becoming your own best friend lol! It's pure gold is right!
Derek: "We're ready to give it a go. You want to crank on it a little bit?"
Bentley': "Bring the thunder!". (@25:25 Just priceless.)
My heart broke for you when those brand new tires and rims didn't fit. I was so sad for you but you just handled it like a champion and got it done. You're awesome Derek!!!!
It's great that you are getting your kids involved!!!! Reminds of when my son and I worked on different project cars. Spent a lot of time with me at my garage helping with customer's cars. When he was finishing high school; he wanted to apprentice under me and get his Canadian mechanic's license; but we convinced him to go to university and his BA in automotive engineering. Letting him know he could always come back to the shop if he wanted. He's now working for GM in Warren Mich. at the resource and development center division. He's always loved vehicles and is now passing that on to his son working on pro-streeting a 64 Chevy II.
Loved it when your boy said "bring the thunder" like his old man does.
i actually laughed out loud when i heard that little voice say "bring the thunder!"
OMG his "BRING THE THUNDER" you are raising him right.
Came across your videos a little bit ago. Always a good laugh. I cant think of any channel like this. The humor, fixing cars and driving them home, and the complete honesty in rigging the car not hiding it. I wish you had a tv show. But keep the video length. I was a store manager/District manager for AutoZone and Advance Auto Parts 16 years. Never for Orielys. Had the chance but didn't.
I also enjoy you bringing Jr to this project reminds me of when I was young and the Oldman was alive .I was a mechanic for years working on over the road trks n always enjoyed having them ther, seeing Jr get around a vehicle is super cool reminds me of first time I watched my 10 yr old back a 48' flat bed into the shop over a pit .super cool dad
Love that he expresses anger and frustrations without cussing in such a great way that you enjoy it
Thats the Norwegian in him
Hallmark of a gentleman.
yea really looks like good example , its cool to be around such people
He's a better man than me.
I'd be 'motherfucking kunt' things up & down lol.
I'm also of Scottish descent.
I'll be dipped 😂 I love it
"Bring the Thunder!" Way to go Kiddo!
I watch a lot of your videos and I can't get over how really good your choice of music is. Great music especially during the time lapse driving part
Hi Derek I love your passion for the older vehicles I miss working on cars myself I really enjoy your videos and the quality time that you spend with your family working in the repair shop 👍
When the boy yells “bring the thunder”... epic
I was thinking the same thing.
Sitting here watching the premier and had no idea a pan in my kitchen was on fire. Great.
Sometimes a feller just needs to try and light the house on fire
Hopefully the fire department doesn't make too much noise or get your phone wet. It would be horrible if they interrupted you and your VGG time!
Lol
@@kennedy796 A guy just gets distracted
Thats fine....
Glad I found this channel. Awesome videos and love them being so long. Your son hollering BRING THE THUNDER!!! Made my day. Lucky man having family involved in everything. Dont ever stop making these videos or change who you are.
That "bring the thunder!" from the little dude it what makes this so enjoyable. I want to rig mine up to play a recording of that every time my key goes in the ignitionator on my old 73.
"I some how managed to find some carpet to lay on". 🤣🤣🤣
Hearing his kid say "Bring the thunder" just made my day. Always great to see a father and son spend quality time together, which is rare to see these days. You're a great father.
Olll
That was so freaking cute!
Yeah, Bentley shouting "bring the thunder" made me laugh instantly too. Awesome.
Hes a great wee guy.
😊😊😊
One of the very few channels I don't get bored with. Your style is educational and relaxing... kinda homey feel to it. Thanks.
Me and my dad use to work on cars together. The best thing ever. I will never forget it.
When I did tree work I once had a client with early dementia who would constantly tell me about her 68 LeSabre that she bought with her late husband, for the better part of the week it was the topic of conversation whenever I greeted her or updated her on the work. When we were finishing up the job, she says to me, " you know I still have a Lesabre in the garage, would you like to see it?"
I just about hit the ceiling with excitement, id been hearing every little detail about such a classic car the whole time id been working for her so I excitedly took her up on her offer. She grabs her keys and leads me to the garage to show me an ABSOLUTELY MINT...... 2001 Lesabre............ She hops in the car, fires up all 3 liters of engine and exclaims "Made out of solid steel, just like they should be" as she pats the plastic paneling. I was SOOOO disappointed but what can you do? I feigned my excitement and shared the moment with her, because in her head she was still driving that 1968 she purchased with her husband.
Moral of the story is this;
Even with dementia, these cars are so sweet you cant forget them.
Dude really cool story , you handled it very well 👍👍
beautiful story. Glad you played along and helped her enjoy her memories.
@@fishfire_2999 Thank you!
@@larryfreeman7979 Thanks man! She was legit the sweetest old woman id ever met, I couldnt burst that bubble.

The only "hour plus" long videos on TH-cam that I will watch in entirety. I have been absolutely hooked on this channel!
First time I've seen this channel and I could not stop watching!!!
Yeah I do watch some full sized videos but I absolutely slam the play button on these vids quick!
Yep!!!, 100%
Same here. I usually skip ahead alot with long videos but I watch all of these.
I think Derrick's happy place is being on the side of the highway in the middle of nowhere, wrenching on old cars to get him where he's going. It's what makes him feel like he's where he belongs, and I envy it.
I’ve just watched this again for, I think, the third time. I got to say, it encapsulates all that there is to admire about Derek and what he does.
The inclusion of his family (Bentleys ‘bring the thunder’ made me chuckle) an achingly cool old car and the dedication and determination he showed to get in out of that grave yard and back home 600 miles.
Big fan over here in the UK. 👍🏻👍🏻
Lol. Too funny. I love it
Derek's humor and patience has literally helped a feller stay calm and patient on my own project. I get frustrated and hear Derek's voice say " would someone help me understand!" Feel better instantly. Best channel on TH-cam by a mile.
Absolutely
good for you!
ive been doing the same thing....hillarious!
Love what your doing,.
Yep.
"These wrenches are hot.....""Feel this"..."owww"..."well I told you they were hot" LMFAO Derek you crack me up
Love your show and your sense of humor, I wish I could do what you do. All my life I love to work on old cars but I never did. That's why I love your show. Keep the good work. Thanks. Dohel.
This kid is lucky. He is learning from a smart man. I love his humor! thank you for putting this up! My first car was a Brown 1968 Buick LeSabre 4Door. This brought back many memories.
A word about the Vise Grip wrench (notice the correct spelling) I grew up about 20 miles from the original factory and developer of the Vise Grip Wrench. Mr. Petersen started his factory in DeWitt, Nebraska. He was a welder and Blacksmith in the small farming community and he designed the Vise Grip for his own personal use to hold things while he welded etc around the shop. So many farmers loved the wrench he made and the demand kept growing for more of them. Soon he had a factory going with all kinds of equipment and 350 employees. The wrench wa so popular it soon was in demand world wide. When farmers could not take the time to repair equipment with a weld, they just clamped it with a Vise Grip until they could stop for repairs. When Mr. Petersen passed away his widow ran the business for a s long as she was able. Meanwhile her kids had no interest in the business as they had all gone off to do their own thing. When the widow passed away they put the factory up for sale. A company called American Tool from Chicago bought it and ran it for a while. But they eventually needed a tax write off so they sold it to Rubber Maid Corp. They in turn sold the rights to China and closed the factory instantly putting 350 people out of work. Now the wrenches are made in China. The Chinese are very good at coppying the look of the wrench but not the quality of the original Petersen Vise Grip wrench. The teeth are soft and strip out and the clamping handles will bend if you put too much pressure on them. If you buy used Vise Grips look for the stamp that says, :Petersen Vise Grip Wrench, DeWitt, Nebraska". Those are still betetr than anything you can buy new today.
thanks for the history lesson... 💯%👍🏾
Thanks for the information ℹ️ #knowledge
I have an old vice grip I bought when I was changing out the shocks on my 66 skylark back in 1987..... oldest and most durable tool I ever bought
My Man dreams of bringing back that good old fashioned quality back to North America, I'll be sure to show him this!
Thanks For sharing the history Preston !
Hearing your youngest human yell, "Bring the thunder!" just makes everything right in this world.
As a dad, that was amazing!
I agree hearing the youngster yell Bring The Thunder made me laugh till I was out of breath!😆
Absolutely....your work is complete. For me, it’s when the youngest daughter says, ‘hey dad, ...can you put that Tom Sawyer song on the radio again....’
@@heatmyzer9 my dad took my brother and I to see R40 in phx. Great show I'll remember that for the rest of my life. 👍

Hi Derek and Family ! Been enjoying your vlogs for the last year or so. Absolutely hilarious !! But I have to say I do learn alot and that came in handy today on one of our old work trucks today. Long hard Friday on the job and just wanted to get home for an adult beverage. NOPE. No starter. Checked battery- good. Checked fuses and relays- good. Checked for 12vdc at the starter relay- good with key- good. About to give up and remembered an old trick you use ALOT !!! Had the kid dive under the truck and used the Tanya Harding (24oz) "lightly" tapping on her for a couple minutes..BAM ! She cranked and started right up. Got back to the ranch and shut down. Needed to tap again to get a restart, so guess I am swapping the starter in the am.
Thank you for the tip as well as many more !! Take care of yourself my friend. Not sure what I would watch after enjoying so many great times with you !!!
God Bless !!!
What a time lapse, started clean cut and finished with a mullet! New to the channel after watching road worthy rescues on Motor Trend. Love all the content. Thanks!
You can just tell this man is an incredibly relaxing presence.
Damn wasp dont even bother him lol
Like valium.
Soothing, like some Calamine lotion on a bug bite.
He calms me down. When I'm fooling with my old cars, I get so impatient & lose my temper. Nothing bothers him though, and he's a great example of someone who just rolls with the flow.

Your son is having the best days of his life, being with you all the time and helping out. Such delight being with Dad and learning!
Def gave me a lump in the ol' throat 'memberin' wrenchin' with my Pops and in turn passin' it on to my kids. Thank You ! FYI, I happened to find a '71 Camaro with an LT-1 and I couldn't believe it but a shift-kitted Turbo 400! Needles to say, THAT was a fun car n Chick Magnet, thank you very much!
Bentley repeating the things his dad says like “bring the thunder” and “get outta there” was the best.
Like father, like son 🥲
😂😂 yeah teaching him good haha
I laughed so hard when he said that. Maybe a new channel to watch in later years
But,it must be awkward, listening to the father, talking about himself the way he does.....
Yeah that was funny 😆
i just found your channel a few weeks ago and i am loving the videos. i really enjoy when your wife and children join you, especially when they are chuckling at you in the background. it is just another thing i enjoy about your videos. thanks!
I love the way you analyze, form a plan start at point a then go to two and then c and then four! I only wish I could be as patient as you are when I work on my own vehicle LOL sometimes I may be a wrench thrower and that's no good. I like the fact that the kids are starting out getting the basics when they're young I just think you're an awesome dude man keep up the good work
I’m actually at the hospital having my last child and idk what I’m more excited for!!!!!! Thank you Derek and family for your time !! I’m a HAPPY MAN TODAY!!!
Congratulations ... hope everyone is doing well and healthy 👍👍👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Congratulations Nick!!
Congratulations
Seeing the little guy grow up around cars, hanging with pops and watching him wrench, gives me hope for some of the future generations.
he hasn't reached the dangerous teen years yet... when their phone has to be surgically removed because it has grown together with their body
By then this will be just a museum piece, sitting in his garage, there to show off to his son with tales of the grandfather 's repair and 600 mile road trip while he loads the family in the latest

Love seeing the kids join you, they are making life long memories. “BRING THE THUNDER!!”
yup
Not just "life long memories", but they are learning skills that few are so blessed to have. Before most people even knew what a computer was, I was allowing my son to help me with building and troubleshooting computers, until one day, he knew more about what was happening than I did.
exactly what I was thinking, so cool to bond over a sweet car like this!
Excellent as usual. The young feller stole the show with the “Bring the thunder”.
Did you catch the "ITZAA!" when he rolled the tire to dad :)
Should have it in the intro right at the end! Or a t shirt!
The music and driving montages makes it super relaxing before bed. Sweet rig too!
Every single video you post is well worth the time spent watching. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. And PLEASE Don’t ever stop, I absolutely love this content 💪👊🏼. Great job.
You’ve 1 million things to deal with on the way home and to film it all is very impressive. Great video.

Your livin the dream man! There isn’t anything on the old interwebs or tv I’d rather be watching.
Tv sucks bro. I just watched a show on nbc something about singin acting idk what the fuck it was
That was the best “bring the thunder!!!”
It put the biggest smile on my face thanks for another great video
It put a smile on my face too.
Out of all this seems to be my go to video every morning when I'm at work . I work for ACI in Grandrapids Michigan. I like it when you're little man saids bring the thunder. Or when he is wiggling the battery cables and he saids smoke. Or when he watches a tool go flying on one of the start ups just before the lady comes up and started asking questions. Lol
Man, your son is terrific. All the kids that age I know would have been raising hell, whining they were bored, wanting a snack, wanting to play video games.

He sure won't! This video brought back great memories as a kid under the hood with my dad & brothers.
It is awesome watching you and your small human spending time together.. my father never would have done stuff like this. In fact the only time I remember him opening the hood is when he burned his hand in the radiator cap.... Anyhoo.. thanks for being you
good to see you getting your boy involved, hopefully he enjoys it and continues on in that direction when he gets older.
Bentley is going to remember these trips the rest of his life.
Yep, those boys are the winners.
This is the first video I watched of vice grip garage and became an immediate subscriber, sorry it took so long... I've now completed at least 83.981% of all your videos
Great work Derek! What an enjoyable journey you brought us on... I can see why this video is your most popular. A+ content for sure!
I really enjoyed this video. Such a nice car, and rode in a model like that one. They are smooth riding cars.. of course that ride was back in the 80s. Keep them coming, love your videos. WIsh I could buy some merch..But we are struggling at this time with money and bills. Barely enough for food every month.
Coming from a part of New England where everyone’s pissed off and cussing every other word, this was a very change. You are the automotive bob ross.
What the fuck are you talking about? I'm from the Scranton, PA area. I know all about the foul-mouthed mutherfunkers in the great NorthEast...
From Long Island. ? Like me ?
We have all you fuckers beat up here in Manitoba when it's 40 below and the fucking car won't start and ya hafta be at work in 7 minutes. 😂
Automotive Bob Ross. That's exactly who he is!
I'm from New England too, and the Prairies look SO DIFFERENT and people are so laid-back, nice.
Just a dad and his son working on an old car together, couldn't get anymore wholesome
Yeah but he forgot to bring the kid back with!

@Awakening Enthusiast someone forcing you to watch???
I’m SO glad I found you again I’ve missed your humerus ingenuity and mechanic knowledge.
Awesome video. I have a 1968 LaSabre that sat for over 20 years as well. My inspection sticker says 1993. Runs great once you figure out how to keep it from over heating!!
