The coolest garage on TH-cam! Should turn the the showroom into a B-N-B! Just get the guests out of there before business hours and run them down to Tim Horton's for breakfast!
Al cameo 😎
Coveralls, coffee and corny jokes. A great way to start my Saturday morning 😃
Fantastic. Nothing like using vintage machining tools to restore a vintage engine back to factory specs.
I hope you guys realize what an absolute treasure your establishment is. Its like a Renaissance fair for car guys. ❤
Hardly anything cooler than old machine shop tools at work
Thanks Straight Ahead ✌😎
Glad you can use the items. Have a great 2024! Loved seeing the Babbitt bearing work. There’s a guy in our truck club, BC Pioneer Truck Society, that does Babbitt work, but have only seen his equipment. I haven’t seen it in action. He is also a member of the Model A club.
Great episode! One of my favorites is "The owner of a Model T may not have a quarrelsome disposition but he's always trying to start something!" Keep up the good work!
That line boring machine was made the year I was born!
Yep, me too. 1951? check. Boring? definitely. Bar? where else? Perfect match!

Thank you looking forward to another great year in the shop with you all 😊
I wish you were closer to me,I just bought my first Model A
yes! good job thank you
You guys are just having too much fun 😊.
Nice work. Alex, coffee 👍
Ding ding YEAH!
Great tutorial on the babbitt. Neat boring machine. I've never seen an early Chevy 6 taken apart. Big center bearing. Thanks for a good video, always enjoy you guys. Cool truck too.
Interesting truck, the Cadillac gas tank, reminded me that there were trash cans made by a Cadillac company, maybe made by the same company as this gas tank.
Another nice episode.
Love the vintage workshop action 😊
104!
Love the old machines! They where built to last. 👍🏻
Enjoy your content! Look forward every new show! Keep getting your hands dirty guys!
Matt, Jim , happy new year. You have the best jobs in the world.
Your technical experience and skills are mind blowing.
I watch the videos and wish we could go back to 1932.
Excellent show and keep the jokes coming. Hello to Alex.
Cheers from Wisconsin
Nice Job on the line boring enjoyed the video
Fascinating, thank you.
Fantastic gents.
Best show on YT👍
Jim screws up a cut and yells: "ooooh, that waskley babbitt!"
Another informative and entertaining episode, gentlemen. Only thing that would've made it even better would be synced up screen shots of Paul's gifts. Can't really make them out from camera position in front of counter, close-ups would be great.
Yes, some B roll close-ups would've been helpful.
So cool to see that truck, I'm about 20 miles from Cadillac MI. Looks like you would catch those pedals with the heel of your boot. A good friend restored a Neopoletan truck made in Traverse City MI which is also 20 miles away. I'm working on a 23 Durant Star coupe made in Flint MI. so we once were the car capital, every town it seems built a vehicle of some sort. Love the machining videos, being a machinist all my life. Happy New Year.
Enjoy the content guy's 👍 cool to see it getting done to keep the old stuff rolling.
I'm sure this joke is in your book-In his last will and testament, a man said "I want to be buried in my Ford, because there was never a hole it wouldn't get me out of." Cheers!
Fkn YEAH! Al
😎👍🍺
I truly enjoy you guys sharing the old school tools, especially the hand tools. It would make an interesting video (to me) showing the tools being used. Like filming as your using them and how they work. Maybe short segments of how they're used and a few short segments edited together to make a video. I enjoy you fellas showing the tools youve found and the things viewer send you. Just a thought.
Happy new year , Matt & Jim 🍾🎉
Happy New Year Gentlemen! Great to see you back at it!
Great to see the vintage equipment in service. Just as exceptional is watching the skill set to operate them. In keeping with the equipment theme could you do a specific shop tour of your other equipment that you occasionally give a peek of but no specific view or detail. I have looked back through your videos and have yet to find anything. Something on your metal fab equipment would be great,
Hope you boys have a great 2024! Your videos are a lot of fun, and the shop is to die for!
Thank you for showing the line boring procedure on the 32 Chevy. It is something that I have never seen done before. Can't wait to see the engine purring again. Hope your new year is the best one yet!
Good seeing Alex. Where ya been bud?
Love your videos!
Excellent as usual 🚗
Awesome
It is really cool to learn about all of the service equipment that has been around for the servicing of automobiles, trucks, tractors and you name it.
This is enjoyable to watch how you keep these gems running using tools made way before we were born.
Tin Cans and Ford jokes. Love your machine lathe. 1953. When things were made of steel and lasted.
Awesome video Thank you for the video
Nice work 👍
THANKS GUY'S.....🇺🇸
Way cool machine! When will we see the Powell?
Classy hat Jim! Now dirty it up.
How about making retro calendars with your name on them to sell? I’d sure buy one.
More interesting would be how you pour the babbit in the block that has to be preheated for the babbit to bond to it.
Interesting video. That was a great joke.
Thank you guys
Love seeing all this old school car & machining stuff & You Guy's are getting better & better at this TH-cam stuff. It's a real good time watching Your progress. Cheer's to all the Strong's Fam. & Happy New Year. 😁👍💥
Looks like a handy, machine, works well, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones
👍🏻🇦🇺
When showing items on the counter please zoom in cannot see what you are looking at.
Nice cameo by Alex , whats he up to ?
Helping at Strong's by the look of it.
Paul Stanley? 🎸?
lol… I’m a Dead head, didn’t really care for Kiss but I always get comments, even from border guards.
Like 238 !
Hey have you ever seen a zenith carburetor that has holley in raised letters on the inside of the float bowl, and what would it have been associated with?
Is that a standard crank or one that has been ground? Youve just answered that! That Chevy crank splash fed ?
Uh, are you guys still in the video biz?
If it is copper, tin and antomy wouldn't it be a brass alloy not babbit?
How do you set the support arms to insure the cutting bar is centered on the bore!
Jim just showed us how!
The engine block is positioned and clamped fast using the boring bar’s center with its supporting arms as a center reference for all of the main bearing bore cuts. This will insure that all bearing bores will be in near perfect alignment, and this allows one to set a center location which will give proper timing gear tooth clearance.
The support arms’ centers are not adjustable, they can only be slid side to side with no change of the boring bar center.
Is/was the process and the machinery not actually named "align bore"? I think "line bore" was just a corruption of the real nature of the process and the machine itself. Phonetically, the two words are nearly identical, but, for instance, no one would take their car to a shop to have the front end "lined"
