The best part of the Sleeperdude videos is watching the kids grow up.
Thank you
I was in electronics for a little over forty years and at a large company and I get heart attacks when I see something like that
The two-legged or the four-legged they're both kids
@@gene5904 All the above
Wow what is fuse panel you drive that or fly it
As a car/truck guy and a proud father I love the fact that your kids are so involved.
Thank you for adding the closed captions on the better half comments.....I've lived here in Tennessee for 33 years and I had to pause the video to see what she said 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 . I love the all the banter!
That’s funny I’m glad you liked it
I'm with you on the wiring :) I was a telecom engineer for years and got used to trying to sort out huge wiring birds nests others didn't want to put right, and even now I still enjoy wiring projects and trying to make them look as neat as possible, its weirdly satisfying
you have good patience!
I've been an electronics technician for over 50 years. I learned back in the early 70's that all electronics run on smoke. Be careful not to let the smoke out or it'll stop working.
As always, thank you for all the work you do providing such awesome content! The kids were awesome and even squeezy stayed till the end! Love you guys! Keep up the great work!
Very true. Thank you
Sounds like a new shirt!! “Let out the smoke”
I do automotive wiring almost every day and I love it. Just a suggestion, you might want to put that mega fuse at the battery. That way if it grounds anywhere it will pop the fuse at the battery and cut all power off
Awesome
Yeah, you need to have a fusible link somewhere in the wiring. Better that burns and the car goes dead than a wire heats up red hot and burns your car to the ground. And remember GROUNDS - lots of them..
Are you going to make more vw bug videos
I love TH-cam. Gets me through the toughest times. Some things help but nothing like people doing cool things.
watching this video........made .... 11 months ago . amazing to see how the children have grown . Love you all
This Saturday is looking up now
Awesome
lol.. That's what we used to say in the computer repair world, "Don't let the smoke out!". I love your videos. Keep em coming! God bless you and the family.
Thank you
I don't usually leave comments but i just love watching the kids working on the cars. And Momma with "sub titles" has also become a favorite. I'm also learning a few things along the way. Keep up the good work. Cheers.
Even though your videos normally have so many diverse elements happening in them, you managed to go beyond that with 'cow rescue'. 👏~applause ~ Loved every minute.👌👍
Love you guys can't wait to hear this machine run !!!
Awesome thank you
My day just got so much better. Thank you guys. I actually crunk my ole thunderbird yesterday first time in 4 years. All it wanted was some gas, a battery, and antifreeze bc water pump is leaking. Gonna wash it today. Thanks again for the motivation.
I love wiring too. I used to do commercial control wiring for a living. But, there's nothing better than crocs and big blocks. :)
That’s awesome, all except the crocs
I'm at a loss for words! Josh, you just blew my mind when I was watching you program all of those electricals into that Fairmont! There is no way I would EVER have been able to have done that myself! Tosh was right when she said you are a genius!!!! That was awesome! Give Granny goat a hug from me..I love her!!!
Fried my brain just watching you do the wiring. LOL. Love your videos, love watching the family participate in your projects and the animals getting into everything. Such a great family channel.
56:39 I love Wawa's expression when you said that. It screamed "what in the world have you been smoking??" And, through that, Ralphie looks as though he is timing how long it will take Wawa to catch on that it's a joke. 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣sometimes she’s real blonde 🤣
@@Sleeperdude True but you gotta love her!!
I used to wire up police cars , trailers , 1/4 mile drag cars, rail buggies and loved it. I was particular how stuff was wired. Calculated wire size to the amperage of each device.
I loved doing that and miss those days
Awesome thank you
I only watch VGG and SLEEPERDUDE . THE TWO OF YOU ARE GREAT TO WATCH . LOVE WHEN YOU INCLUDE THE FAMILY .
Its a nice- fun- warm family feeling with ya'll! Thanks for sharing!🤗 I could see Ralphie doing stunts and shennanigan videos down the road!😁😂😎 WaWa is watching intently- learning well!!
Thank you
Can hardly wait to hear this one run. Been waiting for this one.
Thank you
I'm a wire'ologist. Rewired loads of industrial vehicles.
It's true what your papa's saying about the built in smoke
in electrical/electronic equipment. There should be a list out there somewhere dagnabbit!.
That there vehicle is gunna be a casing chomper for sure (fit an intercooler). Great show.
Very edjermacational.
Well done you lot ❤️
Thank you
The best part of a project like that is the wiring
Awesome
We're in sync with the wiring. I have friends who call me OCD with it... I call it having pride in your work. Excellent work, bud.
Looking forward to hopefully seeing you guys in this car at an event someday.
Yes 👍
Well, all those wires and no smoke got out, I am impressed.
Thank you
Finally told that silly goat no. He would be outside if he jumped on my motor. You folks have more patience than me. Can't wait to hear it start
Thank you
You are much more brave than I am. Wiring is not something I am good at. It was awesome to see your face as everything started working. I'm sure anxious to see and hear it running. I really appreciate all of the time and effort you put into making these videos.
Great to see you and the family!!!
Thank you!
Ralphie, a boomerang is a weapon used for hunting. If you can hit your target the boomerang won't come back, but if you miss the target, it should come back.
This is why you need 3D printer…you can make any screws, nuts, fan thingy, body panels ect. Get your honour roll children to operate your 3D printer along side whatever project your doing. Your measurements are spot on with the wall panels you put into your camper van. That’s half the process. Love you guys.
Awesome thanks
You know you can get stainless steel zip ties now. That would work great in certain situations. 👍
Awesome
Way to go guys! Love that your whole family is involved. Family-animals also. Keep up the good work!😁
Thank you
I love wiring! and soldering. NASA certified!

Nice
I love to wire stuff, and I love to make it all tidy. Everything just talked away perfectly right on Mr. sleeper.
Here we go yall!!!! Hope you came through the storm alright.. and ya might need Bad Daddy Brad to help tune that big block
Yep we are good thanks
Great to see you working on the Futura it is a great car, really classy.
Great video 2x👍 The intro 🤣 😘👌
Thanks! 😀
I am not mechanical in any way and have no clue on electrical wiring but the way Josh explains stuff and how Tosh and the kids are so involved, keeps me watching each and every episode you put out. This is my #1 favorite TH-cam channel! ✋️🐐👏
Ralphie is definitely a daddy's boy.
Wow that Scooty is the ultimate rodent dog lol ! Great video!! Love the long videos . Sit down with the family and watching your video is better than any show on tv !! Thanks and god bless you all
Glad you like them!
All of y'all need to wear a "righty tighty, lefty loosey" t-shirt to remind Ralphie 🤣
Yes!!!
👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽🤣
Lol I was just looking at buying one and a coffe cup.
Or a “don’t dump the gas and drop the clutch” shirt. I heard that kid say it so many times to wawa and mom. Like that’s the answer to everything lol. Glad he seems to be more cautious when he drives.
You sure know what you're doing
Thank goodness for the subtitles again, don’t have to pretend we know what she’s saying!!
That’s great
Hot air into the Turbos...You guys are my favorite.. people on the TH-cam.
Thank you
Tosh is right you're a genius. I work in electronics and I hate wiring. That car is going to be insane. As always great job Josh.
Thank you so much!
Love the Fairmont! Well I love all of your projects but this is my favorite!!
Yay! Thank you!
I'm just so pleased that your kids know all the classics, like Africa by Toto. Well done!😅
Can't wait to see this thing running and going down the track-keep up the good work!!!!!!
Me to. Thank you
Awesome video! Love all the family being involved. I was lost after you said "turn the key"😁
That’s funny. I’m glad you liked it.
Josh, ya did real good on the wiring! But like you said, one wire at a time makes it easier.
I think ya almost had Wawa, with the, " little bit of smoke vs alot of smoke" Could almost see smoke from her ears for a second! 🤣
Love the videos ya'll put out!
Thank you. Yeah she definitely had to think about it
Don't ever sell yourself short, wiring sucks, and you are a genius at it. It's not easy but you make it look that way. Good job. Hey family
Great video when I was a kid my dad made a boomerang he was a cabinet maker it worked it came back and hit me right in the head have a great day
That’s awesome
Great job on the wiring ! Thanks for showing step by step ! I do wiring for a living so I guess I have to like it ! Great content ! Take care !
Great job. Loved the wiring panel 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎
Thanks! 👍
Ahh time to watch my favorite wholesome car family...
Thank you
"SumthuntolitetheMarbosin" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 A guide to English by Tosh. We southerners like to talk like we talk! 😁😁 Thanks for sharing ya'll!! I always enjoy the videos!! Congratulations on the wiring, Josh!!
Man missed the live can’t wait to see and hear that engine run 🔥great videos‼️
Thank you
"Pull it around to the solid-state relay..."
...a small eternity later...
"I don't know what that is."
The timing of the delivery is just gold! You guys never fail to entertain, educate and generate smiles. 👍
You are a great husband and father Sleeperdude. Your videos are terrific! Blessings!
I try my best
Very informative wiring video! Its a weakness, but seemed to make some sense as you explained it. Im also a big fan of the southern mama subtitles youve been including lately, thats hilarious! Thanks for always doing a great job.
All the kids are getting so grown up. Wawa's eyebrow lift just tickles me to pieces. You folks are truly a treasure, thank you for sharing your lives with us.
I agree about cleaning up the wire loom. I always clean up my my wires. And I enjoy doing it just like Josh does.
Right on
Right on Sleeper dudes, you are making a great sales pitch for Holley products.
Central California watching.
Don't normally like wiring videos but even this is amazing 😁👍
Thank you so much
Awesome Fairmont! Can't wait to see this puppy scoot down the track!
I've been watching your channel (s) for a better part of a year and I have to say that you and your family are, hands down, the best, most wholesome entertaining yet informative channel. Now as much as I have been wanting to get some of your merchandise, it's been a really hard year and now Christmas, so it's not in the cards for me. But don't despair, I do believe that greener pastures are just around the corner. Gotta have a Ralphie glass half full attitude, cuz the alternative is not the greener pasture. Lol This is already too long, cuz I know that if you have any chance of reading a big portion of your comments, you have to read the short ones. Josh Tosh, keep it up, you are the American dream.
I have wrenched for 45 years and I love ❤ to do wiring I ❤ love your family thanks for letting me watch. 👍
I’m glad someone else does
I've been doing wiring for a long time, there are a couple of things I do that help make a good connection. Crimped terminals are just as strong as a solder splice, if done properly both will be stronger than the wire itself. When I install shrink tubing, I use a heat gun. If the shrink tubing gets too hot it will get brittle and crack. When I crimp to large gauge cables like battery cables, I have used a hydraulic hex crimp tool like you can find at Harbor Freight. Harbor Freight has SKU's 66150 and 64044 for $70. They come with dies to do lots of different sizes of wires and lugs. With some practice and some care the crimps will be secure, safe and professional looking. All the best to you and your family, you're one of the best and most entertaining channels out there.
Thank you for the information. I am blessed
Great job with the wiring. One thing I hate is wiring! You mad it look easy! 👍
Thank you
We will wait for next fairmont big block twin turbo running. Very interesting video.👍❤❤
Johnny Quest? Good one! I was really little in the late '60s. That cartoon was scary, but I'd watch it anyway. I loved the snooping spider episode the best!
VANNA THE HAND IS BACK, LOVE IT!
Just love your channel! You are a talented mechanic. But the best thing about your channel is the family interactions, as well as Granny and all the animals. And Squeezy with "The Help' reference at the end, classic!!! 🥰🥰
Your wife is a smart woman, I was screaming at the screen to clean those fans and I am sure I wasn’t alone. #OCD
That’s funny
Puddins name drop on you yesterday was absolutely hilarious. Says so much about who you are. Love y'all
OMG Tasha's slang and your translation is F-ing hilarious🤣😂
I’m glad you like it
Wiring is probably one the most satisfying jobs. When you get it right and that thing fires up, love it.
Thank God for the subtitles for your wife, now I finally can tell what she’s saying !
I think of Ralphie every time I look across the street at my neighbors who has a Ranger and an Explorer that are just parked sitting out in the weather and they actually don’t look bad, body wise, she drives a Ranger so I’m assuming these don’t run, but I think of Ralphie every day I see them!!
I love wiring too. Spent my whole life on it. (Retired electronics technician) 😉
I love the way yall do this as a family
😆 "Bill Nye the Science Guy!!!" 😄 🤣 Ralphie gets the impeccable timing award for sure! And the fact he knows that song, awesome! 🤘
Thank you
Great video always enjoy the one liners in the intro. Tosh and the kids are always fun to watch. Already looking forward to the next video especially the Galaxie wagon.
Thanks for sharing and God bless.
Thank you I’m glad you like it
9:36 Scootie gave you that side eye. Kinda like i do when papa tells me not to roll my eyes at him. 😂😊
Gas tank that fits inside of the spare tire mounting area⚡🤯😎
👍👍👍👍
"Yaimboutredytagointornadawachcomin" 🤣🤣🤣
I love all the new words you've been teaching us lately
Yes!!!
Interesting big block twin turbo engine running👍. Sleeperdude Family❤❤❤ God bless🙏
100% No one likes figuring out someone else's poor wiring - but everyone likes clean wiring that is done so it makes sense. This video will be a great reference in the future when you go to trouble shoot any issues.
Thank you ☺️
I like the subtitles for that East Tennessee vernacular!
I’m glad you like it
You are absolutely correct about the wiring isn’t that hard if you attack them one at a time. From a former owner of a Fairmount, they are a very reliable car. Ours had an in line six, with all the smog stuff cut and crimped closed. The ignition module used to over heat and we would get stranded for at least an hour. Fixed that problem by installing a second module and would just unplug one and plug in the other. Great car.👍👍🇨🇦
Rocky always steals the show
Super job tackling the headache wiring can be. Keep up the great work.
Make a plexiglass cover mounted on standoffs for your electrical panel so Tosh will not be able to damage it. If you love electrical wiring then do a solar power system system on the Camper you will love it !
Just to give you back up I actually love working keep up the great work!
Awesome! Thank you!
Before i got into LS’s i used to hate electrical……now when i do wiring its actually kinda rewarding …especailly considering last millineum i wouldnt even touch a distrubutor…….those fuseblocks are a life saver and i wired my last 3 terminator x builds with them the same way you did….if only i had access to this stuff 25 years ago 🤯at todays prices😏……….with tommarows budget😮
That’s awesome
Love your close captioned for your wife. Too funny!! As usual, love your videos 🙀😜
Tash: "You're the only person in the world that likes wiring".
Nope, not just him. I turned wrenches professionally for 25 years and always enjoyed electrical troubleshooting and wiring. It just came easy to me.
I then went into IT for my day job, but have done vehicle electrical and climate control systems as a side gig for 22 years.
People look at you like you have 2 heads when you tell them you do electrical work because you actually enjoy it, LOL.
Made my brain hurt a little watching you wire it all up. I can do wiring but it’s not my favorite. Can’t wait to see it running
Hopefully we get it running soon
A boomerang that won't come back, Is called a Stick. Great video. Big Thumbs Up.
You got that right!
Josh, you were talking about doing the wiring of that Ford Fairmount. Not many people enjoy doing that job, except it's quite necessary to finish building a car.
That’s true
