Junkyard-Rescue 1969 Mustang Mach 1! - Roadkill Ep. 66

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 ก.ค. 2017
- An abandoned Mach 1 is a dream find! In this episode of Roadkill powered by Dodge, David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan head to Colorado Auto & Parts in Englewood, Colorado, and visit the Corns family-builders of the crazy radial-Cessna-powered 1939 Plymouth truck you’ve seen all over the Internet and in Roadkill magazine. Colorado Auto is a giant you-pull-it yard with heritage back to 1959-with a good stash of vintage cars that have been there for decades. One of them was a 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 that had been melting into the ground since 1980. But 37 years of neglect are not daunting to Roadkill, so the guys figure out how to get it running and driving. First, they’ve got to deal with 37 years of raccoon poop, which is just part of bringing the Disgustang into the Roadkill fleet of project cars.

Predicable editing technique.
So good these are quietly coming back online. Impossible to watch from Oz otherwise.
You have to buy motortrend channel. :(
@@randbaldwin thats not possible for people outside the us
Express VPN dude, that’s what I use or I can’t watch these series in uk 🇬🇧 as it’s only in America.

In my opinion, 1969 was the pinnacle of automotive style; certainly for American automakers. For some muscle cars, this was the year they became legends. The Camaro, the Impala, the Cougar, the Mustang, the GTO, the Challenger... the list goes on.
yes I very much agree such graceful styling it must have been hard building these cars
Yeah. Free hot dogs with every fill up of gas. Clint Eastwood is dirty Harry and Philo Beto. Grizzly Adams did have a beard.. good look in the future.
Yeah they were pretty nice back then
1970 without a doubt. The pinnacle of American muscle body styles
True for me it was the 1969 z/28 as edition
Yay! It's back! I missed this episode. Everyone outside of US really got shafted when these were blocked.
yup asking every year, when we get it back. no satisfying answer until now
These were blocked even in the US.
Why was it blocked?
The fact that that car came to life after over 30 years of sitting blows me away and makes me so happy. Good job
Finally my favorite episode!
I Couldn’t help smiling for this whole video!! One of my dream cars as well and this was awesome!! Big engine, raw noise, rusty paint, and real American muscle!! YEA BUDDY!
2:02 It surprises me more than it should when people see a kit car, especially something like the Bradley's or an Aquila, and actually know what it is. They're just so rare and obscure it's sort of surprising to see them referenced.
Because it was scripted ahead so Hardcastle and Mkormick would be advertized by Roadkill.
Breaks my heart to see junkyards like this full of mostly rust-free classic iron. I just want to rescue it all, but I don't have a fraction of the resources, time or skill necessary to do so.
Or the titles...
David and Mike have the best job ever (& I'm extremely jealous!) But they definitely deserve it. Freighburger (or however you spell it) you're my hero! Thanks for all of the real world content that every other "car show
...is missing
Roadkill tip for you. If you run a flat tip air hammer bit on the mach 1 engine mounts while it's running it will clear the rings. It will also move sludge in the valleys. Dumping in seafoam first and waiting an hour also ensures 💯 victory!
MY FAVOURITE EPISODE IS BACK. YES MOTORTREND
I wish there was a use for those old oil can spouts, i bought a few tote boxes from a speed shop after the owner shifted for his last time, and had a bunch inside. maybe weld 'em into lawn art. I can say from experience, those 1969 gas tanks work in 1967 Mustangs, you lose an inch of trunk space but gain capacity.
I have a '67 390 GTA Fastback that i paid $1200 for 30 years ago. I never liked the 69s , bigger heavier, ugly tail end. To each his own and sometimes I wish for AC but roll down the windows and listen to the rumble makes it worth the sweat. Nice to see this one running.
@@Ratfunk02 That's a nice purchase (I have a 1967 convert, interior/exterior decor group, honey gold, original 289 3 speed but someone put in a 351W with headers and a hurst shifted toploader--pretty much 1970's fuel economy technology). I wish Ford had done more with the 390 to compete with Chevy's 396. that rat was the LS1 of its day, easy to get 450 hp out of. Ford did some effort in 1961 to do a tripower 390 with 401 hp. but Ford wanted people to step up and order a 427.
The 1969 and older models did get bigger, which gives some room for a big block (I also have a 1986 GT, there's fun with small blocks when the car is light).I will say, AC is nice :) I have a 1968 Olds 442, stripper model (except power steering and the THM400) with black interior and vinyl top and I live on the coast, so if you get air moving it's not a hot blast of dry heat like in say Nevada...but on a long drive the wind noise gets to you (the flipper vent window doesn't do enough). One day that will get AC, a new unit that takes up less weight.
The look from the front, the body shape in general and stance of the car...just love it.ONE of the nice classic cars 🤩
Wow, I'd given up on the series and I see content either I missed or has recently been made available. I hope they get back to putting everything on line. It was the best show for just having fun with wrenching and, hopefully, still is.
I keep pushing air out my nose when something Dusty happens like I'm trying to keep it out my nose🙊🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽😊
So glad roadkill is back! Long live roadkill!
I love it when a plan comes together or is it just you two when you get together…. Wish I had some of your talents you guys are awesome
If only networks in America and the BBC made shows even half this good.
I am amazed that it started and idled!
64 year old paraplegic right leg amputee . 43 years in a wheelchair from motor cross i've wrenched on a lot of stuff over the years love your show had 70 mach1 + 69 mach 1 ; you really need to invest in some boots before you have a fatality on your FEET! cheers !😁Later Richard
(36yrs) I twisted my back in my sleep and have barely been able to walk for 8 days since, they don't build us like they used to, you're awesome.
Great episode. Love my hot rod magazine subscription!!!
351 windsor, no surprise that it started and ran.:)
Would have thought the Cleveland would be in it?
Best episode EVER!! I love the Mach 1
A friend of mine got to drive a 1967 Mustang fastback with a 289 in it his sophomore year in high school. That car was awesome.
I had a 69 fast back and it was fun to drive, but it spent more time in the shop than on the road. Id say thats the best looking stang of all time, but like all Fords, its found on road dead and fix or repair daily. FJB!
We agree on the FJB part lol 😁😁
OOH MY FAVE EPISODE OF ROADKILL
Welcome back to your home roadkill, we missed you
The Rustang was an outhouse before being converted to a road going conveyance by Roadkill. Stay tuned for the next episode where they'll convert a dumpster into a car hauler.
I have been to that junk yard in that town ! Great cars
Speaking from 4 years in the future...that 351 is not long for this earth...
this is the best show ive seen first episode i saw was like 3 years ago
i just realized how ridiculous my profile pic really is any who? yall are absolutely the best TH-cam channel there is ! The dynamics of yalls relationship is just so entertaining!!! yall really got something special here!!!!
Muy buen programa .no me pierdo. Ninguno . Saludos .vivo en México. Monterrey. NL
In 1988-89 my dad restored a ‘69 Mach l with the 460 big block, 4 speed, and the shaker hood. Such a great car
A friend of mines mom had a 69 mach 1. In the early 70s his mom took us to an Oakland baseball game in it, it had a 390 with automatic trans. When you sat in it the blinkers would light up on the hood scoop
I love it! like two kids on a playground, lets thrash it!
The funniest part was when Dave found a dog skull 😂 This was my favorite episode
I rebuilt a 4100 that was completely seized, the butterflies are an easy fix, just don't tighten them all the way down, move them freely and tighten them a bit as you go until you hit spec.
People want to complicate that job but it's really just get it close and trial and error, ten minutes...
A little bit of my soul died when the forklift driver raised it that little bit more and the car smashed the front
TheHK2127 Ayyyyy I literally groaned as my soul was crushed a little bit more...
TheHK2127 ikr
+TheHK2127 The front was already pretty messed up so that really wasn't going to hurt it much...
TheHK2127 canceled.
TheHK2127 yeah and the hood bent it crushed my heart
Even in thrashed condition, this is one of the most beautiful cars ever made.
Leave it Ford to offer a two barrel version of their top "high performance" model.
If a car sits rotting for 37 years and is able to run with only fluid changes that car is the definition of pure quality.
You say that and then here comes episode 73 and the motor seized.
needed a lot more then that... dont know where you got that from.
Well, a leaf in the oil pan blocked the oil circulation. Can't blame the car ;)
Frederik19951995 How’d a leaf get in the oil pan?
Badjuju It needed some weather-damaged parts but the engine was mostly good, the parts for the fix weren’t insanely expensive or hard to find, the engine didn’t need disassembly
When the doughnuts started, I swear i saw that car smiling!!!
Dodge will be definitely jealous on this episode.
They sponsored it don't think they can be jealous in all honesty.
but they could do a dodge engine swap
전희성 that's a good way to degrade a classic mustang
Dodge can go fuck the themselves
전희성 that would be awesome
Love these Junkyard Rescues :)
Yeah, the Junkyard Rescues are really neat. :)
RCSantos agreed
RCSantos especially on personal favorites. Like this one
Same here bro :D
ahahah thanks.
POWERED BY DODGE
Ok guys today we’re gonna repair a 1969 Ford Mustang
@taxid3rmy i mean idk im diehard when it comes to loving everything dodge but that old mustang has some charm to it the body style looks superb
So they should only do dodge? Everything else is moot? Surely as a petrol head, anything like this is awesome? And why should being sponsored by them limit them to just dodge? That would be a boring show.
Nice you know how to copy other comments
Just purely my opinion and trying to be humorous, but the Mopar/Dodge guys saved the Mustang because Mopars aren't worth saving......yes, I am a Ford guy....
THIS was classic roadkill and the reason we watch these. Back to the roots. Make a shit box go again. But where was the drive home? In reality it's missing the best part. All and all, an excellent video though.
Adam Swanson only part 1 fingers crossed!!!
Adam Swanson thank you! I agree! I used to look forward to these all month. Not so much lately. But this one was good.

Couldn't agree more. This was Roadkill true to it's original concept.
100% agree.
I came upon this video by accident and just had to watch it. My Dad bought a 1969 Mustang Mach 1 brand new and had to sell it in 1984 due to hard times. After his death in 1995, I decided to track it down, and I bought it back. Then, in 2004 I gave it to my son for his 25th birthday. He still has it and he loves and babies that car. It's a real tribute to his grandfather. My Dad's is a 428 Ramjet with the shaker hood in Candy Apple red. A real beauty. I still had the window sticker, build sheet, original sale paperwork and even the leather key case from the dealer that my Dad used. All passed down to my son. I wonder how many of these are still on the road, or possibly even in junkyards.
Patti P great to hear you continue that legacy of your family
Hey Patti do you have pictures of the Mach 1?
Patti P good on you. When I am older I am going to get an EH Holden tattooed on my body. My grandpa had one along time ago but sadly she ended up in the scrap yard. Holden is an Australian car is u didn't know just in case
Patti P I love you
This is amazing
Anyone else mad that cars aren’t built like this anymore? Everything just looks like a Toyota Corolla and it’s upsetting me
Ur right
Modern cars are rounded to try to counter drag.
100% agree. Don’t even get me started on Prius’s or daily drivers like Honda pilots. Uhhhh why can’t they make cars like they used too anymore????
Thats cos you dont understand why all cars shape is similar. New cars are much safer to be even run over by. The bubble rounded curves not sharp edges. All wipers and stuff placed lower so you dont get flesh ripped off. But mostly its for cars hitting each other. Old car bonnet crumples engine pushes into the footwell steering collum through ribs. But the bubble car is all crumple zone. A front impact carries the shock up the wings pillars down the roof all protecting the people so much better. Remember the motorbikes front number plate? How many people got split by those. Hood ornaments impaling people at just 10mph. Cool car DUMB DESIGNS. This is the future stupid deaths gave us.
j q meh. Life is meant to take chances.
It's official. The Disgustang is now my new favorite Roadkill car. Seriously though, you guys could make a killing if you released an official line of Roadkill diecast cars
Ive messaged greenlight many times telling them to get the license.
Austin Houtz the inner man child in me would buy all of them
"Aron isnt here" made me lol so hard the wife came asking me what was so funny.
I dont get it. (Probably I am too young :)
That was the most savage remark I have ever heard on Roadkill
ot0m0t0 have you seen fast n loud? Well if you haven't its a famous show and the lead mechanic left.
Mats Karlsson I don't get it. can you explain ?
Is it just me or is anyone else still watching old Roadkill episodes?
We are all watching em my dude
I watch old eps over and over again. Best car show ever.
Yu
du
I want them to return to YT
Frieburger the type of guy to wear flip flops to a black tie event.
You must have us all confused with someone who cares what Frieburger wears....Quite frankly...why would anyone care?
you notice he was wearing shoes to clean poo out of the car tho right.
Andrew i would too
He has standards you know. ;)
he got that from gray baskerville....R.I.P....
I miss RoadKill
I remember in one episode they said that they were never gonna sell themself to a company, to be free on youtube.
I now know that those days are gone
No more RoadKill, no more fun.
RipInPeace RoadKill
TheExtremaz bro I’m watching all there free episode all over again . The Dodge Challenger one is by far my favorite episode
Ripinpeace?? RestInPeace R.I.P.
Are you high? Roadkill wasn’t ‘sold’ to a company, it’s been a product of that company since day one.
Alphabet inc. (google) paid TEN (motortrend, hot rod etc) to produce content for TH-cam. Mike and Dave where TEN employees from Hot Rod magazine. Once TH-cam became huge Alphabet stopped paying extra to channels like motortrend. So TEN moved their intellectual property to their own website. Where you can either pay to watch the latest episodes without ads or watch the older ones for free with ads
@@meteor5452 So close but not exactly.
TEN was bought out by Discovery in April 2018... around the time that we stopped getting new Roadkill.
"And not on some cable show!"
Yes.... no deadlines... more of this haha

7:40 how did the dog die?
Etrut Shahbazi heat
who abandons a car like that with a perfectly good engine and trans !!??
Lots of people. I would find engine/tranny sets for these everywhere. Got a C4 in a yard sale for $12 once.
Due to the rusted out floor boards, I shall personally dub it, "The Rustang"
AGamersNationAGN dood thats whut i cald my gramas 98ish mustang literuly that thing had half a door
Who the fuck taught you English?
ha ha... that's not engrish...Lol.
It's a reverse convertible.
the disgrustang
Our Roadkill, who art on TH-cam
Hallowed be thy name
Thy junkyard come
Thy resto be done
On budget, as it's sponsored by Dodge
Give us this this day our monthly episode
And forgive us our stupid comments
And forgive those who complain about paid content
And lead us not into sponsorship overkill
But deliver us from boring Dirt Every Day episodes.
Ahhh...mint.
830sxz That was beautiful

at 13:23 they exorcised the demons in response to your prayer.

Junkyard rescues are hands down the only reason why I like to watch you guys.
Alan Abarca hi how’s it going!?
He probably thinks they just make one show with the car and then fuck it... clearly did not watch more than a few episodes...
Fury started nice, then turned lemon car (stripped down), then they junked it lol
Alan Abarca junk yard rescues kinda like your wife
THE MOMENT THOSE AWESOME MAGS WHERE PUT ON...... MAN... INSTANTLY SHE BECAME A BEAUTY!!!
Now you have to do General mayhem versus the disguststang at the Subaru rally track "dirtfish" head-to-head!!! That would be great
JP fromPville *dirtfish
That would be awesome.
This. So much this.
JP fromPville "Rust-Bulitt"
That would be awesome, but they went and put a hellcat engine in it so that ruins it slightly
Who else thinks that these guys have the best job in the world?
True
the worlds geatest
I do
I want to be them sssssooooo badly 🚗🚕🚕🏎🏎🛵🚖🛵🚘🚃🚋🚔🚔🚠🚠🚲🛴🚐🚌🚌🚑🚜🚜🚋🚔🚍🚨🛴🚲🚲✈️🚅🚊
I guess Jeremy clarkson, james may and richard hammond have best jobs and thry get paid shit tons.
had 69 [not a Mach] in HS 1978 and sold it in 84 ....man it was sweet to see them breath some life back in that!! Ha haha loved the oil can spout LoL
Having restored a couple of these late 60's Mustangs, and run into every issue, thank you for this episode.
That car is awesome! Put a sanitary interior in it, and leave the rest alone. It looks good with it's battle scars, and it's a true survivor! I would love to own it!
yeah i hate when people take a badass car and make it nice like just leave it be ha
SMELLENOR
thats a good one 😁
Excellent
its not a GT500 thou....
lethal0lee thats good but not the same body style
i still like it.
8:37 Good to know I'm not the only who says it like that!
Strange to see u here man
I am a bit disappointed, that this Dog Skull did not find its way into the car...
Plzzzzz do more with this car!
There going to dirt fish with it

I saw that too. Hahaha... was about post when I saw yours.
Derek Charette it's really annoying people can't appreciate American cars just because

POWERED
And Yet Another Great Roadkill Episode.
YUS!!! My life is complete. he said Canadia!!! xD
"this family is so awesome" one second later "I can't wait to drive away from here".
left my girl at the mall this better be worth the backlash
sillywun76 what ur girl doing at a mall so early...😂😂7 am Eastern time ....4 am pacific....😂😂😂OK OK just a joke
Yeah what this guy said ^ dumbass why do you read everything except where he said "just a joke" and get salty on the other shit only
You sir are smart. malls in my part get bad cell service inside. shell call when she notices you left.. and by then you will have successfully finished this episode...
don't worry she is fine
I need a crowbar or a driveshaft this guy is the best
The best part. “The wheels are spinning” 😂😂
My husband and I owned one brand new in 1969, fastback, 351, 4 bbl, 3:50 traction lock rear, hood scoop with turn signal indicators, racing mirrors, 3 speed stick. After the original OEM tires wore out we went with 235/70R- 15" radials on rear and 215/70R 14 on front. We also had the fold down rear seat option. Cost brand new in 69 was right around $2,800
Wow!
sweet. i hope you guys are still cruising in it
I will go one better. I had 2 69 Mach ones a black with maroon interior the first . The second Acapulco blue 4 speed with much modifications .i paid 400 dollars apiece in 1972 they were wrecked before salvage titles existed after repaired they were gorgeous .wish I had kept them
@@bertdemeule4802 a buddy I went to school with had a 69 Boss 302, Sweet ride.
I noticed this car didn`t have a posi rear end, only the driver`s side spun.
10:50 killed me haha "Aarons not here"
Mountain Man Fishing you see what I did there? I love that moment
kierrhoa816 CHS same
I was like OHHHHHHHHHH!!
That Mustang Fireup when he removed the manifolds and the engine smoked was AWESOME!!
Aaron's not here
Freaking Legends.
Roadkill>GMG
After watching this video, I wanted a Mustang from junkyard
Huntley everyone does
i live in poland. where you can find on junkyards shitcars for less than 100$
Huntley im 11 i have 67 inline 6 with drag slicks on it
agreed. my favorite cars are classics, and my favorites are the Toyota AE86, The 1970 Dodge Challenger, and the 1964 1/2 through 1970 Mustang. Don't forget the 1968 Mercury Cougar.
Huntley is cool
Great car, great show! Its so rewarding just seeing how it looked before, and then how it looked at the end of the video! Amazing how you can make these classic cars run in a matter of hours, even though they've been neglected for decades!
Starting the car with a couple drip pans under the car would've helped lol
You guys didn't start with the check list written on cardboard.
They did mention they were spoiled in this episode 😂
sometimes when a decent car shows up it kills me that it's not fixed up the right way
APP 125 True , I've seen cars in good shape just rotting away. And they look amazing for being in a junkyard. sad
Better that its running and driving at all instead of being left to rot
I live in Golden colorado and have been to this salvage yard several times. They were very good and treated me well. I loved seeing all the vintage cars here and there.
This was awesome, thank you so much for all the fun of watching a thing of beauty come back to life.
Is it a coincidence that the episode is 37 minutes long and you are rescuing a Mach 1 Mustang that has been sitting for 37 years?
It sounds so bad that my tv's subtitles read whenever the car was Idling as tractor idling
DUKE BOY xD I'm dead
DUKE BOY it does sound like a tractor, so it's not wrong
DUKE BOY sounds great dude
Dukenqaurters Athens first time they started the car it sounded like right before my lawn mower engine blew up. It was a 23 year old lawn mower
had a 69 gt and this brought back old memories. The nicest looking fastback ever made and now won't be able to sleep just remembering the fun I had back in the early 70's
This is the first episode of roadkill I watched and you guys are crazy for sure . Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!
This is the best roadkill car by far
I guess if you squint your ears.
It would be if it was one of the roadkill cars but this wont be it will be friebergers personal car not a roadkill car He said so if youd listened closely
mikeylikes063 he meant one of the best the rebuilt
Naaaa general mayhem
gotta give it to the rear engine truck that does wheel stands
Why not just start every build by making a dam of oil dry around the entire car?
bludmakesgrassgrow because it's not a roadkill move
bludmakesgrassgrow cause that would make sense and we all know in roadkill common sense is nonexistent
I was thinking as they started digging in, a bleach rinse to keep the fecal dust down...Anybody work in hazmat know what they SHOULD have done? Urgh. Gag. etc.
Love the wheels you put on it! I had 68 , Buddy had the 69 Back in the day. 302 in both. I enjoyed watching this and shared it with him...
this is the first time i'll ever say this but please Restore this car! like if you agree
darren reichelt I think they should atleast weld the floor and some other major rust holes, put a proper exhaust on it, rebuild the engine (new gaskets and bearings) and fix all the lights and the power steering and power brakes... I really want to see this car on the road... maybe even for a roadtrip! I think this might be the most worth preserving car in their roadkill collection...
darren reichelt I'd like to see a General Mayhem rival. Looks battered and broken, but runs like hell!
BLASPHEMY
Build it it up/fix it
Nah that'd be unnecessary. It'd take a lot of money to restore it, they made it good cheaply.
the Piston plane truck also came out in Jay's garage
my 69 oldsmobile toronado is falling apart. i recently got my life back together and am back on my feet. this show is a good influence for me. from seattle Thank you roadkill.
That really is about the pinnacle of Mustang badassness. I don't think there was ever a better body design.
I wish I could purchase this car and rebuild it. MY DREAM
I'm extremely excited to see what you guys do with this car,
Cheers.
Well you probably want to see it fully restored perfectly but they'll probably crush it for fun...
Fuck did more damage with the forklift in 5 min than 20 years in the yard
Not really the hood was already smashed.
It was hard to watch that hood get smashed, but 100% necessary. The ground in the junkyard is not even, that precious Mustang would've been bouncing around and possibly fall over. I suspect if it had fallen it would totally wreck the rusty and fragile car. I'm with the others saying 'smash the hood to make sure we save the car'
Moron fork lift driver. I want to punch his fat stupid head for that move.
guy was probably one of those fake claim car guy but only likes one shitty name brand,lol if you know what I mean😆
that was really negligent of him to do that
made me happy with this project. thank you!
