I Re-Clock My Radiator Fan. Here is why…
🔔 SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/@projectcarrescue
I buy terrible project cars that everyone else gives up on. Then I spend an unreasonable amount of time and money rescuing them and building the way that I think they should have been when they were new.
It todays video, I spent hours reclocking and restoring an air conditioning / radiator fan on my 1991 Eagle Talon awd turbo. Doing this allows my 2.5 inch intercooler pipe more space below the fan.
You’re probably thinking that I could have pulled that fan out entirely and thrown it in the trash because it’s a dsm and my engine doesn’t even have working A/C. And you’re right about that. But someday it might have air conditioning. And when that...

I Cut The Back of My Frame Off (BUT FIXED IT!) | @projectcarrescue​
Просмотров 28 тыс.Год назад
🔔 SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/@projectcarrescue The 1964 Impala, Belair, Biscayne and other 61-64 X-frame cars often have rear frame rails that are rusted, rotted or damaged in some way. Mine was no exception. So, I cut the entire back-half of my frame off, one piece at a time, fabricated new frame rails from 1/8 steel, and rebuilt/restored my frame. There were plenty of mistakes along the way, ...

🔔 SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/@projectcarrescue The 1964 Impala, Belair, Biscayne and other 61-64 X-frame cars often have right front frame rails that are rusted, rotted or damaged in some way. My frame was no exception and in desperate need of restoration. These frame rails in front of the crossmember are also called frame horns, though I am not sure why. Anywho - I cut off the old frame horn a...
This 64 Impala Body Might Break in Half! (Spoiler - It's Made of Body Filler!) | @projectcarrescue
Просмотров 6 тыс.Год назад
🔔 SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/@projectcarrescue After grinding away all the paint on the 1964 impala project, I welded a whole bunch of angle iron to the driver and passenger rocker panels and doglegs to prevent them from breaking in half when I take the body off of the frame. They were rotted almost entirely in half, and mostly made of body filler. This impala restoration was about to get serio...

Rare Barn Find Auto Parts FOUND! (I Got SO Lucky!) | @projectcarrescue
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.Год назад
🔔 SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/@projectcarrescue I just found a pile of 1964 impala parts in an old dairy barn. I originally discovered an ad for 64 Impala parts on Craigslist with no pictures and very few details. From there, I got in touch with the owner (great guy!), and had the chance to poke around the old car parts that have been tucked away in his dairy barn for decades.The Impala barn fin...

🔔 SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/@projectcarrescue In this video, I show you how I swapped front and rear doors on my 1964 Chevy Impala wagon project car. The "new" doors are from a BelAir or Biscayne. The old doors are from a Chevy Impala. Swapping all the parts from one door to the other was far more time consuming than expected, especially removing the door glass. I had to remove the door handle...
I Bought The RUSTIEST Impala On the Internet ($500 Well Spent!) | @projectcarrescue
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.Год назад
🔔 SUBSCRIBE: www.youtube.com/@projectcarrescue This was the WORST 1964 Impala project on Craigslist, SO I BOUGHT IT! It's bad. Like really bad. That being said, I love Impalas, especially the 1964's. I also love wagons. So even though this car needs years of love, money, floors, interior, an entire drivetrain, and restoration, I intend to tackle it. In this video, I show you the new 64 Impala w...

    Great work, really enjoyed your chassis repairs, when you were doing all the measurements, I thought that doesn't seem right, that the measurements were different from one side to the other. Also you mentioned the possible accident damage to the rear chassis. You managed to get it all square with the use of the Lazer level. Years ago the car manufacturers used to include a diagram and measurements of the chassis in the workshop manual.

      Thanks for watching! I’m glad that you are enjoying the project so far! I am in Massachusetts, and I found the car on Craigslist. From what I have been told, it sat for many, many years with the windows open. I believe the last inspection sticker was ~2002? Maybe? I forget exactly. It’s a really fun project so far! I can’t wait to do more!

    +1 For the "public service announcement". To add to that, you have a phone in your pocket with a camera. Take pictures when taking things apart! Because sometimes you put 20 different bolts, nuts, and smaller pieces in one bag that belongs to one part, but you will also forget what went where exactly...

      That is very possible! It could have also been a combination of gravity + beginning with a crappy rotted frame. The good news is that it is laser straight now!

    I'm curious why you're spending so much time on doors and tailgates when you have much bigger problems to fix. It seem like this is going to be one of those rat rod projects.

    • @projectcarrescue
      @projectcarrescue Год назад

      Excellent question! Here’s why: I’m cutting all the floors, floor supports, rocker panels, and much of the firewall out of this car. So - before I do all that, I want to get a baseline and know that everything “fits”. Then once I have all the new metal going in, I will know whether it was screwed up before, or that I’m screwed up during the process. It’s essentially one of the many “dry-runs” of building a car that is rotted beyond repair. I am not currently planning on this staying “ratty” on the outside, but the long term plan is staying very flexible. It could end up as a candy painted Lowrider, a hotrod with a blower sticking through the hood, a 4 cylinder turbo with coil overs, or a ratrod. For right now, I’m just focusing on replacing all the rotted metal with new metal. The rest - well, that is a decision for future-me :)
