Luke, you're the nicest guy on the planet. Such a good, calm, tranquil nature - commendable. Man, I LOVED seeing all those old rides. The WildKitty was fantastic, especially since it's a rare 2-door. The field of old Cadillacs was spectacular. I love a 57-58 Cadillac and all the other old cars there. It's wonderful that you guys are so interested in the vintage American cars! Pretty much had enough ricer action for a while. The '67 F-100 Shorty, oh my God. Praise the lowered! Thanks again buddy. Loved it when you guys welcomed your buddy to America. Wish you lived closer! Appreciate all your hard work and passion buddy.
This comment means a lot, thanks so much!
@@ThunderHead289 If you drive a v8 daily, get a rear under 3:1 at least. driving old cars is green but you can do can burn a lot less fuel daily than that. Don't just completely write off green because old cars don't have a green rep. Old cars are far greener than their reputation, but not 4.5 rear, v8, 4 seaters. That kind of torque can drive a 15 seat church van! or more! You can rig that, but not daily (unless you average about 2 miles per day, then OK).
Also, If you want handling through cones, put that battery in the back. That should be performance step 1 for rwd v8s. Gets you out of the mud too.
@@ThunderHead289 nah….. run 282s and rip it
Your friends are lucky to have you around. You seem to really know what your doing around cars... Constantly fixing their problems.
You guys are wayyy better than those hotrod reality shows on TV.
Thunderhead rotstang deserves at least some decent patch work because it's one of the stars of your Channel.
considering some homemade subframes indeed.
Heck Yes! Send it! Hay, that's a really cool video - keep up the great work and keep that Mustang on the road!
I love the cars. I have the same car as Kevin, '66 Wildcat Sport Coupe, only with the 45 Nailhead. Great cars. The RotStang did great, especially considering it was the one supposed to die on the tour. I did cringe a little at the burn-outs, but, maybe that is because I recently got my 'Cat and am 57 years old. My Wildcat is a "Personal Luxury Vehicle" and has a complete interior. It needs a paint job but, everyone to their own tastes. Some love the patena, I love fresh paint. As long as you love your cars.... all is good! Thanks for the videos!
Something about watching you with make do way of getting it done is much more entertaining than another man with an endless budget
ROTSTANG is a beast! But love that gorgeous WILDCAT ;)
Great video buddy
that wildcat is an amazing car !!!
This is a GREAT video, Thunderhead 👍🏻👍🏻😃.
Your helping the Buick made my day; seriously a GREAT video all around. Have a great weekend.
👍🏻👍🏻💯💯💯💯💯
You'll love mine then!
thanks so much, havent heard from you in awhile! hope all is well!
ThunderHead289 Thanks ... all is well, Thank God 😃. Guess what my Holley 850-cfm issues was ... I even sent my Holley out to get rebuilt/modified ... got it back from the shop ... it STILL dumped fuel out of the boosters WITH THE MOTOR SHUT OFF?
The shop NEVER changed my Needle and Seat Assemblies!
One day, my instincts told me to go downstairs in the garage ... remove the front/primary Needle and Seat Assembly, and inspect it upstairs and do some online research on Holley carbs. As I had the Needle and Seat Assembly in my hand ... flipping it upside down and back ... IT STUCK.
I blew into it full breath ... it STILL stayed stuck. The secondary Needle and Seat Assembly was the same ... getting stuck ... with aluminium shavings I found INSIDE the old/original Needle and Seat Assemblies. ☹☹☹
I changed BOTH ... no more fuel pouring into the intake manifold from the boosters WITH THE MOTOR SHUT OFF. 😃😃😃👍🏻👍🏻
I Gotta Thank God. 👍🏻👍🏻💪🏽💪🏽😃
That looks like the uk ford Sierra front mixed with capri and a tad of vaxhall Opel manta what a good looking car
Luke, your ride was next level on that parking lot smoke show..... best I've seen..!!!
I loved that foxbody - she was dialed
a water bottle with a bunch of electrical tape fits pretty good over the housing on the T-case so you don't loose fluid w/o the yoke in. Ask me how I know.
I would love to see another revival series!
You remind me of my college days (before you were born) right across the border at USD. One of my best friends was an engineering student and ace mechanic. He loved going out in the thick of a South Dakota snowstorm and starting cars that wouldn't start.
65sohc hey, that means a lot! I’ll take that as a compliment any day
The rotstang the lil ford that could....smoke em till the wheels fall off literally....great video
The Dude 😃😃😃💯💯💯💯👍🏻👍🏻
never give up, never surrender!
What kind of car is it actually?
@@MartinodePueblo Really? you don't know what kinda car it is? you can't be serious
Way to make it work. Go man go!
So, but... lot's of cool rides, so, but... great channel.
That naturally patinad Buick is beautiful.
you better pull the front bumper cover off the rotstang when you junk it, that is a legendary piece of garage art
When it goes, i was to just hit the whole front with a saw and mount that whole thing. that car defied all odds, for a very long time.
chevy guy havin some trouble with his brand spanking new merlin engine and the rotstang no issue at all kind of funny
Great video
Thanks Guys I really enjoyed the video.
+Bobby Tectalabyss thanks! junkyard digs will have a much better video and log the whole trip.
that flexi-frame™ helps it hang in the turns.
that looks so fun, wana fix up my 52 chevy 2 ton with a 292 inline an put a 40-60in sleeper on the back an pull trailers
Man the Rotstang is too cool
most people disagree, but im definitely with you on that!
OMG! never saw that in my life! what are you guys 25ish!
I've seen a lot of things, but I don't think I've ever seen a Mustang do power turns with a canoe strapped to the roof Luke LOL
You know what forest gump said - stupid is as stupid does 😅
sub frame connectors will help.
Need to get me an old mustang like you got
is that a orange handle'd flat head in the window crank to get it to operate......>????? lol,lol,......
Not flashy, no car wax just well tuned goodness. (best in show)
whats the begining story on the 66 wild cat .... how he found it & all that.... or did the 2 of u go in togther on it.........????
What are the interesting video the best I've sin you do yet love love love it take care man we love your work hope you're not freezing your ass off right now I know it must be cold up there
man its like 30 already, not excited for what winter holds. winter = engine building season
Why not put the drive shaft in the bed of the truck.lol
When you guys were is the z71 and the yoke came out. I thought it was funny everything had gave you guys a problem except the rot stang
had to beat the sound of a pissed off Windsor
That old rusty mustang was legendary
so after the body was coming apart on u there did u keep the complete drive train at least.....?? & the rear end & all the good stang ...lol stuff & trans- plant it all in another beater there some time......... maybe to a kid near by trying his best to get a ride togther some where close to ya maybe.........?????????????????
Rest in pice Rot Stang. Luke how do I get in on Hotrod Power Tour? I want to go in 2021 with my old Fox Vert
Do you supply the community with propane and propane accessories?
damnit bobby
Lol
I'll tell you what.
2:11: So does it on hot days, still vapor lock?
why isn't the drive shaft in the box of the truck not your lap???
Wow she is rusty but worth saving just a few metal patches here and there to hold her together maybe set of subframe connectors
Off subject but do you still have your galaxie? Have not seen it in vids..
Pecker Nuts I do still have it. In fact, there will be a grand galaxie resurrection here sometime in the spring. Redirecting my own cars.... never would have thought it would come to that
ThunderHead289 Awesome.. Been enjoying your videos. You're very knowledgeable! Going to borrow the fuel pump return line idea from you for my truck.. keep the vids coming and thanks..
who own's the wildcat
13:33
25;25 he couldn't even do a burnout LMAO!! trying to show off
Get any other fox body for a couple hundies and drop the stang stuff on it. Or fix the body...
the problem is the driveline is worn out also! 20w-50 with bardahl no smoke only makes 20psi of pressure at 1000 rpm idle !!!!
You only need 10 psi per 1,000 rpm, it'll be fine
Ha ya this guy needs to say "propane and propane accessories " I just want to hear it
I really like old cars good video there about old cars I always had it for old car I like the year 1950to60 70 im a chevy person its hard for me I go by the style of the car I would love to know where i can go look around and bye one that's my wish I work hard for my money but now im on ss disable any ways that's my dream someday it might just happen im from Holland MI stay touch
LMAO!!!!!
Fuck Work! just hit hard now!
that fix will get worce
it worked out alright ;)
Dude...they make a cream that'll kill whatever you were digging at around 13:30...
keith gulich lmfao Kevin they got you !!!
why not an electric fuel pump
A 352, is an FE block! Not, a big block!
why not weld the doors shut, maby make the unibody last a little longer
oldreliable303 Justin Scott I kinda like that idea, and then hide a switch somewhere to put my window down to get in!
maby when conpletlys gives up put that motor and sheet metal on a 4x4, say a bronco ll
im not going to lie - that has completely crossed my mind
ThunderHead289 i need to do power tour one year, but im going to do it right. in my old work truck...
Im hoping to hit 2018 - we shall see
He should of bought a ford
hard to make a comparison - that old rotty mustang was just completely immortal
Stop saying “any way”
Mark Simonds I’m better at doing car than talking car, ha!
any way...
