Thank you for your APPRECIATION to your subscribers!!!
Well, without you guys I wouldn't be here 🤷
@@PoleBarnGarage I don't hear any thank you for watching in your outro, just saying.
@@PoleBarnGarage😊😊
JD's comment..."Probably crashed...rest in peace" made me do a spit take. Love it.
JD is hilarious! He's obviously Dalton's son... Very similar sense of humor.
Think I heard him mutter "shit..." under his breath right before too which cracked me up
A lot more fathers need to be like you my friend teaching their son how to fix things with what they got great job 👏 guys.kallamazoo Michigan said that.
My dad taught me what he knew. Luckily I have TH-cam to teach me a little, so my kids know a little more 😁
Woah your from Kalamazoo I'm in gr how cool!
@@Tech_481I'm in Battle Creek
@@froggersgarage5127 woah so many michiganders
My daughters have no interest in anything mechanical, so I at least teach them the most basic things so hopefully they wont be completly helpless. Ludington here.
JD is becoming a master mechanic!
JD will remember these revivals for years if not for life. You are showing him that everything doesn't have to be thrown away after it's been used. You are instilling knowledge and value in him.
Pretty awesome you brought JD along with you for the adventure. Looks like a fun time!
Father and son time is so important and absolutely great watching the two of you great video thank you both 👍🏻
I'm 51, now. My dad, was allot like Dalton. He, gave me priceless knowledge!
I love when you explain to your son to feather the throttle, the look on his face when he is concentrating on feathering it. He will be one of the few new gen that has common sense. Great job! 👍
JD is really gonna go places. What a capable young man, really incredible to see!
Unbelievable that any of those cars ran - good old GM engineering. Love the ingenuity in using the license plate for both a pry bar and a hack saw. Many years ago my fuel filter clogged up and I used a pen tube as a bypass to get her home - when dealing with old cars you need to be very creative at times.
JD is quickly becoming the star of the show. Bravo boys.
I'm 53 years old & remember doing things like this in the 70 s with my dad ! Memories can not be replaced or sold ! Good job DAD ! 👍
Keep this up, and soon you'll be the Cadillac Ranch of the GTO world....Folks will come from miles.... Great vid, good seeing JD, and "those other guys;" whoever the hell they were!
You're right! Just a few rotten GTO's shy
Thanks for keeping the older cars going 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍
Can't wait for the new GTO project!
The 301 should get the best gas mileage and might have the best traction, plus towing with cars is usually limited by the rear frame or trans cooler, rarely by the engine. Adults don't accelerate, so GTOs are toys unless modified for towing, with receiver hitches, that or flip to a man-child. To tow campers for the homeless, it needs a receiver hitch, but 301 is plenty.
Kevin's diesel El Dorado demonstrated it's traction, but can it tow? His diesel truck can, slowly or with another engine, ideally 4.3, gas or diesel.
Kevin's failure to flip is childish, and GTO's are good for flipping, but not much else. Kevin owns too many cars. Revive a Chevette! Though I hear you can't find a Chevette with posi. Revive wagons!
Good times hanging with your dad and some friends little man. I sure do miss those days. Thank you both once again.

@PoleBarnGarage how much does a head gasket cost for a 2004 Yukon 1500
@@joshuaqueen755🤣😂🤣
@@joshuaqueen755 I bleev bout tree fitty
@@joshuaqueen755 between $270-400 depending on where you are getting it.
I’m looking at the VW bus!!! That should run easy! How rusty is it?
I assume the "unrestorable" GTO you walked by is the one I saw on Facebook. Can't wait to see that in some upcoming videos! Love me some Pontiac content, keep em coming!
GTO and Grand Prix have poor mileage, poor traction, and are too small to house the homeless, so I see no redeeming factors except possibly, with rear frame and suspension upgrades, they might tow camping trailers, which might then house the homeless. Kevin chose much better with his FWD diesel for 2wd traction, which he demonstrated even with a flat tire, and a pickup which can both carry and tow campers, though perhaps with another engine if that one can't be fixed. Try retorquing head bolts if not too late. Retorquing should be routine on those 350 Olds diesels. Is there a good retorquing spec?
Adults don't accelerate.
I'm such a huge fan of those old Grand Prixs. Thank you for giving these some love.
It's funny, I watched the first couple min of the Junkyard Digs video and said I'd come back to it.
Basically watched your whole video one sitting. Idk man you're pretty amusing and just keep a good flow. I hope the channel stays on the up n' up.
Thanks guy for keeping it in a level most of us operate at. Love the show
I love JD's comment "Rest in Peace" and the way he says it almost as an afterthought, after the thought that Dalton has crashed into SOMETHING with this 400 Pontiac...
The videos with your son are awesome. I love watching you two working together!
Great video, again! The boat and outboard sitting next to the brown Pontiac is pretty awesome too. I love that old 50's style.
Love seeing the kid with ya man. Him on that red Pontiac, you could see his concentration to "feather it" as you were saying. Reminds me of my Dad talking to me with my 1975 Triumph TR7 when I was 14. To hear that thing run and do it with my Dad will stick with me until the day I die. Cheers to you.
Great content Dalton! Your son JD is an awesome kid. You’re blessed
Love what you do and that you include your kid, the world needs more fathers like you. Share and teach the love for old vehicles to younger generations. That's exactly what the hobby and lifestyle needs. Newest technology doesn't mean it's cool. I may question some things that happen on your channel but your content is real and I appreciate you for what you do for the hobby, if nothing else. Keep on keepin on fellow brethren. The car culture we all love and appreciate wouldn't continue to exist if it weren't for folks like yourself.
THE most positive thinking person in the world!!!!
From 0:00 to 39:47 {the best part at 34:14 when Dalton says "I bet people would say you can't restore that"....(sips his Busch light with a grin)} I could not stop chuckling and laughing at all the humor thrown in amongst Dalton and J.D. I laughed so hard at the beer swig, LOL Loved seeing the vehicles there. There were points it was hard to keep from laughing it was just absolutely hilarious. It was a treat and just a totally awesome show!! Loved seeing the collab between Junkyard Digs, Angus, and several others. Five Stars!! Cheers!!
Love that shirt you got on, thats just so neat, would totally buy one of those
Absolutely brilliant video Dolton and JD you sure do know how to have fun what ever your doing keep the good work up 👍 👍👍
Love how you spelled Dolton! You do know what a dolt is right?!😂
Great video as usual. Its always nice seeing you an JD together. Dalton is on a quest to find and revive the Junkiest cars ever😂
Dalton I enjoy how you guys make due and adapt with what you have and you always figure things out.
I can see JD being a mechanic when he gets older.
I am looking forward to your next video
Ifn this was an actual contest… I’ve gotta say you won 😄 When you looked back at JD and said most of us wouldn’t think the GTO is restorable… I knew that car was probably going to Missouri. Can’t wait to see what you guys get into next and what might happen to a certain 69 Goat. Thanks guys!
I've never seen anyone cut fuel line in a field with a license plate to get a Pontiac running. That's a win in my book.
Field Expedient
You two make a great team.
Great job Dalton.
Your Son is a real good kid!
So glad to see someone else appreciating the finer things in life aka PONTIAC
“Feather it, it’s old…junk.” Dalton, 2023. That should be on an t-shirt!
Actually, I seem to remember my dad telling me the same thing once upon a time. Quite a life lesson.
Brakes!? Don't need those, they're for Stoppers! 😂😂😂
Awesome Dalton!
Love having more JD on the vids. Great times. Making core memories for sure. ❤
Thanks brother the Gran Prix's have a place in my heart. I bought a '76 in 1986 for 800 bucks that had a newer 400 in it with I think it was 86 thousand miles on it. It was the radial tuned suspension model if that means anything. I drove it till 2006, and I mean drove it, as it was my only car, then I sold it for 500 bucks and it still ran good. And I'm diggin that shirt bro
My favorite part of this video is the respect you show your son. You can just tell you guys like being around each other.
You and your son , remind myself and my youngest son. He is 25 and we still do anything car related together , also really dig your shirt. One of the best youtube channels.
Thanks man!
I worked with a guy whose son in law owned a Pontiac dealership in Countryside, IL. He gave everyone at work the best deal on a Poncho. Like dealer cost. I ordered my 76 LJ with all the options. Deep maroon with gold pinstriping. Padded landau roof, deep pile carpeting, high back velour buckets, corner lights, 400 and 400 turbo, factory duel exhaust and posi rear end. $5,100. Drove it for 17 years. Rusted away on me. I still miss it. Now I'm driving an 05 GP GT that never goes out in the winter. Thanks for the video.
Lmfao 😂😂 JD Probably Crashed RIP oh that was cold pore Dalton 😂 36:24 @Pole Barn Garage
You might even be younger than I am at this point but I just want to say I deeply appreciate what you are doing for the hobby by including your son in what you do. The world needs more fathers like you. The younger generations need this type of experience to truly appreciate what it is that we all follow and what you love about the automobile and what it means to true, red white and blue blooded Americans. Thank you for what you do sir, and for the fact that you make what you do publicly viewable
Genuinely need the shirt Dalton is wearing,, where can I buy?
Thanks for more 77 GP video action Dalton. Such forgotten cars. Keeps my 76 close to my heart and missed.
Rest in peace. Best line of the video, I almost fell out of my chair. JD is getting quite the education. Good or bad? It's all good.
Very cool video! Those 70s Gran Prix are cool cars, even the 301 powered unit. Someone definitely liked them a lot to have that many.
Retired stop sign welded in the floor and some brakes and that's one hell of a Pontiac you found with a 400 to boot.
You found a gold mine of rusted possibilities!! Thanks for sharing
Fantastic stuff. JD is grownin. And getting pretty good at the whole mechanic thing.
JD is the coolest ,love getting the old junkers running it's good you take JD on these escapades he'll learn a lot from you and will have great memories when he older
How old is JD? He seems very knowledgeable when it comes to cars repairs and I’ll finish work in the vehicles. Awesome! I love it when he says, “oh right where the battery goes. “And also when he says, “ooo wee! “
13 now
Loved this Video Dalton and JD 39:41 always fun Laughs and Shinanagins @Pole Barn Garage
This is an awesome video. This would be something I would love to share with my son if I had one. Lord knows I wish I had a father to work on cars with growing up.
I just bught a 72 4 door skylark and im in love with it! So far she runs and drives no problem. Keep the videos comin!
Heck yeah Dalton 1:01 @Pole Barn Garage
Love your stuff dude, representing the majority … more tractor paint jobs please .. friggin love those … very inspirational … you and vicegrip provide so much motivation even here in the UK … I’ve completed some wicked projects that I would have struggled to complete with out your channel.
Glad to see you are with the whole pack using the time for good and family run and fun time.
Give the old girl some Beans JD Yeah there ya go 25:20 @Pole Barn Garage
I remember when these late 70's granprixs were everywhere. Before the minivans and the SUV's, you can bet one in 4 Grandpa's was rocking one of these with all the grandkids in it. That Red one is shockingly good. Hard to find one in the wild not rotted....kind of like the white one, that deserves a final full send. 😉
Ah, the joys of father and son time. You are such a fantastic role model. Don't you DARE change the content you create!
That Evinrude boat motor behind you on the pontiac from the 50's would be a sweet will it run video!
What a great son you have. Polite and sincere 😊
Really liked that little editing trick that you did there, with the “some people will say that that car can’t be restored”…… but after watching your show, I don’t think there’s any car that can’t be fixed.
Love your show and that boy of yours getting big ! Post script. Please tell me that you bought that GTO. ??????
Thank you for the collab! Great way to spend a Friday evening!
I owned a 75 LJ Grand Prix at 16 I loved that car. I always wanted to get a 76 or 77 because they offered them with T-Tops I'm hoping to find one in good shape one of these days. Seeing those old GP's brings back a lot of great memories. Love your videos keep up the good work...✌
You guys did great today. But you did have the advantage of JD in your team.
Excellent!
@GIVEAWAY-5 Spam
Man this video caused so many flashbacks to my ill spent youth working in gas stations and garages in the 70's and 80's! Your son is an exceptional young guy!
I drove a 1977 Grand Prix in the mid 1980's. It had a 350-4 barrel motor with a turbo 400 transmission. It had good power considering the compression was 7.6:1. It was great that you managed to have one run and drive for you! A 400-4 barrel would be a great motor for the new GTO project!
Great vids from you and Junkyard digs .
Think you need to be called " Dalton the knowledgeable "
Excellent camera work from JD .
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
In 1977 if you bought a LeMans Can Am, it came with "a Grand Prix dash." I always wanted a Can Am and it is a very nice dash and steering wheel.
Just finished watching Kevin’s video, was waiting for yours just to see that “Fuck you” part 😂
Nice !! Awesome revival! The GTO will be Ace !! Looking forward to that
Best Chanel on TH-cam. You and JD make me laugh so much. Never change
You've inspired me to get my butt in gear and get my pontiac running. I just picked it up 2 weeks ago, and she's a beauty. A 57 star chief, and a rare Florida barn find. By the way, SOME of us in the south have all our teeth. Not me, but I'm sure some of do!
"Probably crashed...R.I.P."
~JD 😂😂😂😂
Great job! As you said, some people would call those cars unrestorable. I know better after watching you channel. What you did with the Silver Dollar Chevy proved that you can always restore something especially if you don't want to enter it into a car show.
Hello. I look forward to your videos. I'm always amazed at how talented and experienced JD is at tinkering with old cars at the age of 12. Is it true, that JD now also has his own channel?
The most underrated channel on TH-cam hands down
I would like to se you try and get that old ford van running. I really enjoy your videos, Its good good yout teaching your son to work on old cars and understand how they work.Keep up the great work.
Kinda hard to do with no engine in it.
I love these videos, it reminds me so much of me and my dad working on his GTO, my Impala, countless brake jobs. Kudos
You just gotta love those Pontiacs. Thanks 👍🇺🇸
We sold a couple of our go karts and got a 1984 gmc s15. Jon just drove it last night, he is 10, first car he ever drove. 2.8l v6 has partial floor delete. Put a new rad in last night. Runs pretty good.
My friend you have a face for Radio but since its a dead medium, Podcast may be what is in store. You have the voice. Radio, Announcer, Narrator, Podcast host, Any of it. And Kudos to the Kiddo for the great camera work
Great video! Enjoy the collaboration with JYD. Also enjoy seeing JD working with you.
Dalton you are doing great teaching JD how work on cars,father and son time you know you Junkyard Digs together you two are crazy.
Pole Barn Garage Friends Believe or not I was even Rooting for the less desirable Pontiac V8 engine to run, which was that 301 V8 engine, Which like you say, would have made for good content, if you could have broken it loose ,but keep up the great work you and your son !!! And Congratulations , as well to your brother for getting his youtube channel started I just Subscribed to his channel as well 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😃😃💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍
I had a 1982 Grand Prix LJ. Loved that car, so comfortable. Floated over bumps.
My first car was a worn out 1977 grand prix bench seat colum shift 301 and loved that thing all the way up until the car got totaled smashed while parked great video
Had me a rusted out 77' GP for my senior year in high school 89" 301 base model it drove like a dream with that RTS suspension!! Love to find another on but $ is tight!
Hi Dalton my name is James I so love what you do and you having your son help you is wonderful reminds me of when I was young. I started at 9yrs old working on cars with my father up until he passed in in 2013. I got my son working on cars with me at a young age to now he is older he is a certified mechanic and works for a dealership so thanks for your content.
What did I win
@@franklinoakesjr3713 It's a scam please don't give them anything.
Thanks for keeping Pontiacs going!
Well, Now Your Just Showing Off...Lol! Great Job! 👍
In 1976 ,when i was 10 years old my dad rented a brand new Grand Prix. It was silver with a black landau top and black swivel bucket seats.That thing was super cool!😎👍
My brother had an old Grand Prix, that got wrecked, pulled the 400 out and put it in his 70 Le Mans! Love Pontiacs!
(Okay, I love them all, GM, Ford, Mopar... 70's and older, ya just cant beat 'em!)
Finally someone who appreciates the old Pontiacs. I can't wait to see that GTO.
That was an awesome video! Your son had me dying....
He probably crashed...
Rest in peace...
Lmao!
The door on that poor Chevy Malibu wagon. Would be a cool car otherwise. Had one as a kid and my mom step mom had a 77 Grand Prix. I like both. Wouldn’t mind having one of each again.
@@tcanthony2 that's awesome! 50s-80s cars seem to be the best!
