Driving my Boyfriend’s 1956 Chevy - First Time Driving An Old 4-Speed

  • Don’t judge me too hard. This was my FIRST time driving my boyfriend’s 1956 Chevy. It’s got a fully rebuilt 350 with lots of hop-up parts and an old sloppy 4-speed. I had a lot of fun driving Hank but got frustrated when I couldn’t do a 3-point turn without stalling. Instead of being defeated, I jumped back in and drove it back to the shop! I feel way more confident driving this car now. It’s a HANDFUL.

    Driving an old car with a mechanical clutch is definitely a different experience than anything modern with a hydraulic clutch. Especially, if it has a touchy race clutch. You did great! All you need is practice, practice practice.

    You had me smiling from ear to ear. You are just as cute as could be and your BF is so super cool too. Love how he messes with you about the cop...I think he did this stunt before too right? Great job on driving the 66 year old! Perhaps not very precise but the rawness is really appealing to us gear heads. Not much sounds better than a small block Chevy with a little lumpy cam thru open headers running thru a Muncie! No modern car can provide this kind of sensation.

    best video yet, liv i had the biggest smile on my face when you were going through the gears with some throttle down, just put you back in the seat. thats a old school gaser for sure. you get an A+ for driving today, and thanks to your boy friend and hank for a really cool video, i really like watching videos of your adventures together.

    Thank you for the video. We also have a 56 with a small block Chevy, muncie 4 speed that my wife of 45 years has never been able to drive because of health issues. I'm fortunate to have her! Bucket seats from 2009 Silverado without the headrest worked for me.

  • @davidsantos8206
    @davidsantos8206 Год назад +1

    Great job Liv. Anyone who has only driven a hydraulic clutch standard, has no clue how much harder it is to drive a mechanical clutch car. Especially when it's a big, old, heavy car, with a high performance engine, high performance clutch and high performance transmission. And it has no power steering or power brakes. Check out my thumbnail. I think you and your boyfriend will like my 57 Chevy 605hp, raised solid axle Gasser. It makes your car sound quiet as a mouse. She is a blast to drive, but definitely not for the faint of heart. But I love her. Thanks for the video, I thoroughly enjoyed it

    I learned how to drive in a 63 plymouth with a 3 on a tree when I was 7 years old, mind you it had a slanted straight 6, but still, I don't think many people could say that. Not even 30 year olds could do that today

    At 76 years old I've been goofing with
    hot rods since I was 15...my sole remaining car is a 56 150 utility sedan built in Oakland CA for Pacific Bell Telephone used in Sonoma County for 10 years and sold at auction to the shop that seviced since 1956 and I bought from them in 1979...still have it and take it to local show in Las Vegas.
    It's now powered by an L-78 BBC that came out of a 69 Chevelle and backed by a six speed and 69 Chevelle 12 bolt posi with old school Alston Ladder bars.
    Painted black with blue flames and has a simple black interior with plywood and carpet for a backseat..fixed glass and no window cranks...my 44 year old son played back there when he was a baby!

    You did GREAT ! Brought me back to around 1972 or 3 when a buddy Paul (who'd since passed away) came to my mom & dad's place with 67 Chevelle 396 four speed with the teenager who owned it all excited saying, "You HAVE to drive this car!" I drove it around, saying "What's the big deal?" It was then Paul told me I was taking off in 3rd gear! Car had a 4.88 gear! THE GOOD: I could Steer it by changing gears! THE BAD; It was totally stock except for the 4.88's no good tires, cam, intake or headers! The young fellow asked me to drive it at Detroit Dragway that weekend, I told him "NO, it has nothing in the support a full pass at a drag strip." They took it there anyway with another driver and just like I told him...BOOM! It sat in his yard till he sold it. (would've been a Great candidate for a hot roller cam small block!) :) BTW; I'll be 69 years old next month

    Hank is awesome, reminds me of a 55 Chevy I rode in when I was 19. Thanks for bringing back that memory Liv. Oh by the way, I believe you are capable of driving anything you put your mind to including 4 speeds. I am a Corvette guy who has modified and maintains two old ones. A 1978 C3 and a 1988 C4 and I put Tremec 5 speeds in each. When you got it on with Hank it brought tears to my eyes the rest of the video including now. Thanks again
