    I have owned 6 Chevys in my lifetime i still have 2 in my back yard. One with a V8 Chevy engine- One with a 6 cylinder with 50 thousand original miles on it. I know it has 50 thousand miles because my grand dad bought it new. The other Chevy Has 80 thousand miles on it. All Chevys from 1947 to 1954 -1/2. CAME WITH A 6 CYLINDER ENGINE. last part of 1954 they put out a small V8. 265 cu in. Then The 283. When i was a young man every one wanted a 283 I owned a 265. then i bought a roaster off a used car-lot it had a 283 V8 Chevy engine i drove 10 miles took me 3 hours to drive it 10 miles. i took it back to the dealer and swapped it for a 1953 Chevy convertible. The salesman asked me why i didn't like the roadster. I told him it took me 3 hours to go 10 miles because every mile a cop would pull me over to check out my roadster for brakes and horn, turn signals lights noise (mufflers) I could not drive over to my girl friends house to give her a ride in my car!!! Oh i almost forgot It had 1964 T-bird bucket seats then the young cop said "Those bucket SEATS where did they come from?? My T-Bird Has the same bucket seats. I said they came with the roadster. He said OH YEA They came with the Roadster SURE!!! I said the Car Lot I bought the car is one block back so follow me back there!! I pulled in the lot and the Cops were right on my tail. they got out and i asked the sales man. DID THAT CAR HAVE THOSE SEATS IN IT WHEN I BOUGHT IT?? THE sales man said yes those seats were in it when you bought it. So i swapped it for a 1953 Chevy.

    The way it turns over is vety slow especially for a6 volt on 12 volt power maybe you need a heavyer pair of jumper cables?

      Threw a battery in it later in the video, and it turned over like a champ.

    Pour an eggcup of fuel in the carb when trying to start old vehicles to let the fuel fumes fill the intakes so when it turns it can fire on fumes before it speeds up enough to suck fuel through the carb jets!

    Grew up around these grandpa has a 55 I’ve got a 47. 50, 52, and 53 in my yard ranging from running to about as far from road worthy as it gets without considering it just parts. Always have a laugh when one of these engines sits for years then fires up

    Hello and now that I've had my inaugural viewing of your channel, I say good on ya there
    for your stick-to-itive work ethic, as it paid off ultimately.
    Yeah, this was the first time for me to see one of your videos.
    I had the video running while I did a few chores nearby, this is of course my way of telling you I can listen to your commentary* and listen to the noise the engine was producing all while not seeing every minute of video and still I found the content compelling enough to stick with this upload to the end.
    *IOW your commentary is spoken well enough so that even a visually impaired person can follow along.
    p.s. the numbers after 3 weeks shows you have 31K views, that's impressive with only 1.02K subs.
    I'm guessing peeps follow you on other medium platforms and many may even be sharing your upload, whatever is the cause, again I say, 'IMPRESSIVE!'
    Four out of 5 ['s] for content and editing in my humble opinion. I'll be checking out other uploads from you soon. Have a safe, sane and sensible day.
