    It's nice to see someone who loves a car enough to keep it, but store it properly so it doesn't rot to pieces. Too many folks hold onto things but don't have the ability to store or care for them and so they rot outside until they're worthless. If you want it, keep it well, but if you can't then move it along to someone who can!

    Dylan, this is exactly why I enjoy your videos. Youve shown great patience and the ideals of what a mechanic should be. To see someone actually taking the time to explain the basics to a young person, in a very concise way, so even the most jaded of us can remember what it is we're supposed to do. Too many times we get caught up in the hour rates and the overall work, we forget what we should strive for. Thank you for being a good example of a Christian.

    Hey, what a pleasure to see that '68 Charger getting some TLC to bring it back. Those people are going to be delighted. Thank you for videoing the initial work. They have a gem....I have an old "B" body too. It's a 1969 Plymouth Sport Satellite,(2-door) Sunfire Yellow w/ Black vinyl top, 318cid 2bbl, A-904, 8 1/4" open 2.76 axle, w/ pwr st, pwr brks, pwr win and AC. All factory. Now 54yrs old at 79,000 miles it's not rusty but it's not perfect either. I've had it for 34yrs and I drove it about 3,000 miles every summer except the last 2 Covid Summers. Now I am old, so I drive it all the time. I had to clean my little 2bbl carb after it sat those 2yrs during Covid, cuz some rust from the "shitty gas" (10% alcohol) I'd say must've rusted the tank or fuel lines. Anyway rusty water got in the carb & made it have an off idle stumble, but Gumout spray carb & choke cleaner got it back to perfect. The car turns heads everywhere I go, but it's not a show car, it's a driver. And it drives so well for 54yrs old it's hard to believe. Only bad thing is 10" drum brakes. I had to settle for metallic brake shoes and they need a couple seconds to heat up befor they get around to stopping very hard. Other than that it's such a pleasure to drive. Oh, and I almost plum forgot, it gets 19.7 mpg on the expressway at 70mph running between gas stations. No Lie. ben/ michigan

    This is so freakin awesome Dylan, luv it when u guys team up. Luv me a 68 charger 💯!!! Surprised at how solid it is and how it fired right up! My best friend who sadly passed in 2015 in his early 50's had a 68 charger. His dad's friend bought it new then they bought it in like 70 or 71. They used it as a family car until it was parked. My friend restored it with his dad and his dad gave it to him. It was spanish gold with white interior, a 383 and a 727 trans. Right b4 he passed it was put into a storage unit. It was moved back 2 his dads house and put in the garage. As far as I know it's still there. I loved that car and wish there was some way I could get it!!! A very heartwarming story Dylan, awesome of you guys to help the family out! Awesome that the young gal wants to learn about the classics!!!

    I really like how both of you took time to explain and walkthrough the basics of getting this Charger running with the young girl. It is so important to include the younger generation to keep our hobby going.

    Great work and nice to see your knowledge passed onto another generation.
    And that's the best barn find charger I've ever seen, just how you would want to find one.

    So envious of your revival!! I'm a Cutlass/442 guy, but I'd sell alot of cars to get a 68 Charger !!!
