      Im not kidding, ive downloaded it before from when you were sponsered by them and I have actually saved a surprising amount of money. Sure helps when driving my 75 Suburban that gets 7 miles to the gallon 😅

      I'm not sure if you've ever done a " where are they now?" type video but, it'd be kind of cool to see where your vehicles have ended up. Still on the road, reconditioned, scrapped etc. Your content is terrific. I've been off work for 6 months for back surgery and have been watching a lot of it.

    Thanks guys, Tom as well, for making a hard day a little easier. Had to call working on the project tonight. Phantom limb. Smacked my stump into the frame on the wife's truck, time to go in, sit back, and have a beer about it.
    But we got it prepped for powder coat, and loaded on the trailer. Hook up, and take it in Monday.
    Lol. Yep. Doing this one right. Tribute to a daughter that may as well have been ours. Patina sleeper, dentside lightning project. Started when I had feet. Think a derelict version of Dodge's Adult Toy line of the late 70s.
    Had my wife and me smiling and laughing when we needed it. Our daughter is an only, but Maddi was like a sister.
    Married a month. Remember those days. Wife and I hit 18 recently, and see a similar dynamic there, since Mook first joined your videos. That, okay, they are close but How, feeling.
    Same one people had about us since she made her move.
    Keep that dynamic, you've got this.
    Congratulations, Kids.

    At 13:19 the turning off the ignition yet coasting at speed to put unburnt fuel into the muffler then turning ignition back resulting is a loud bang was called, at least around here, key banging. My brother did it all the time on his 79 f250. He stopped after replacing the muffler 2-3 times. The last muffler only handled one key bang and it was completely blown apart.

    Here is a tip for a good product to make a roof look like vinyl. I had a Ford Granada that had a really bad roof. What we had done on that car years ago was "Rocker Schutz" by 3M. Check it out , it is a great product and works really well for a roof! Here is a small example of what is said about it , "3M Rocker Schutz Coating is a tough, chip-resistant coating developed specifically for restoring and protecting rocker panels and similar vehicle areas during collision repair. This coarse-textured coating can be easily thinned and tinted to match OEM textures. Spray-on coating is very easy to use: it is tack free in as little as five minutes and paintable in as little as 30 minutes."

We'd be driving, I'd turn the key off, coast a little bit in gear, and turn it back on to same amazing backfires, and sometimes flames. Never knew it was because it keep pumping fuel into the exhaust and would like when I fired he back up!

      One time I was overheating in my celica and I decided to coast down a hill with the ignition off to let the engine cool down but still circulate the water in the cooling system, turned the ignition back on and BANG, like a gun shot all the fuel in the exhaust ignited. Thought I'd blown the muffler up, luckily it was fine.

    Going to school for automotive technician theres 2 tools that make drum brakes a dream. One is a anchor pin compressor looks like a screw driver and the other is for the return springs. Makes it soo much easier

    I'd have to say that thing looks way better now and what a steal at $1,600 bucks. Also I figured Angus would be the one drinking those craft beers I brought down and I see a Great Divide Yeti @51:18 haha. Nice Work fellas and Kevin I hope you enjoyed the honeymoon!

    I’ve had and still own many many cars ( over 40 now). But I’ve always been partial to Pontiacs. I’ve got 6 currently. I noticed the 66/67 GTO. I have a 67 with factory dual gate a/t and #’s matching 400. Also have a 65 tri-pwr 4 speed 360 hp #’s match. Others are a 62 Bon 2dr bubble top, 62 Cat conv. And two 62 GP 4 speed cars.
    Nice job on the roof!

    1:00:30 Tom On 26th January 1971, the Tire Identification Number, more commonly known as the ‘DOT code’, was introduced. *BEFORE* 2000, they had a 3 digit code which was the Week & the year ie: 247 (24th week of 1977, 1987 or 1997) after 2000 tire manufactures moved to a 4 digit code 1024: Week and year produced

    Sweet Bronco Kevin! Great choice on the 2 door; I never see those on the road but really love them! I build models in my spare time, or at least try to have spare time to build them!!! And I have AMT's kit of that 2 door Bronco, and I think I'll paint it that green in your (and Mook's) honor!

    Loved this partial restoration, but was really hoping you were going to repaint the whole car, but it looks fantastic, these were the boats we used to drive and party in back in the 70's. Brought back alot of memories of my teenage years when life seemed so much easier and fun. Thanks guys for a great video!!
