I always like Slicks attitude. He's just always a "It'll be 'aight" kind of guy. That's who you want in the shop to keep the mood light, even when stuff isn't going great.
PREACH 🙌🙌🙌
When I first saw you trying to bleed those calipers and the bleeders were facing down...I covered my face with my hands and thought...they are NEVER gonna get the air out of those calipers! 🤣
Love watching you and Slick working together and having fun.
Slicks family had great foresight to keep bird turd around for the day it could be rebuilt for a rowdy ride this is what car community is about sentimental memories ❤🍀👌
Popped the hood on the cummins yesterday and found a huge dirt dobber complex. All I could hear is puddin saying DAAAAAAYYYYYNGGG
But did you yeet it out into the yard?!?
Hey guys... as an old auto parts guy I can tell you that "replacement" parts aren't necessarily duplicates of the original. The parts industry has people that they pay good money to see how much they can consolidate their inventory-- make one part fit three (or more) applications. That's why you see those fittings in the middle of those brake hoses... because another car or body style needs them, and they don't hurt anything on your application.
The sad part is even when u buy oem parts many of them are cheap Chinese parts that u get way over charged for at the dealer. Its sooooo hard to get good quality parts these days. 20 plus Yeats ago u still had a chance to get good American made quality. For example these days if u need a set of points and a condenser . Your better off finding old ones because old ones were built way better quality
Every time I'm at the yard I always grab relays , fuses and condensers. The good stuff
😢
I know I’m a day or two late on this one but there’s a divider plate on the Pontiac engines between the water pump and the timing cover. A lot of times people forget it on the back of the old water pump when they change it. No matter what you do it will act like there’s air in the system without that divider plate. Found out that one the hard way.
Ole Theo sure looks pretty chill around all the goin ons. He was just laying out on the grass as Slick drives by. Good to see Bill as well, wish he would show up more often. Thanks for sharing 😊 everyone.
Slick seems to getting really comfortable on camera,Great content as usual guys.
Some call it a Craigslist rebuild I like to call it aerosol overhaul and there’s nothing wrong with cleaning up your ride! Love your show man!
I was doing the ol Rattle can Rebuild before people called it a thing. 😂😂
Love it when y'all work on a project together.
Thanks for sharing with us.
Slick 50's Firebird back in the shop. Looking good!!!
@@neto6787 he said it is slick 50's firebird not a firebird from the 50s.
@@neto6787 You must be new around here lol
@@neto6787what a weird comment
Yes puddin evening is on nice to see Slick helping working on the fire chicken 😂and Theo the shop pup is there to look over everything 👍🏻💪🏻🇨🇦
You guys did a stellar job reviving that firebird. An acquaintance had the same year with a built 400 with dual quads when I was a young lad. It was midnight blue with a dark blue interior. I loved that car. I am very proud of you guys for putting in so much effort to revive his Dad's race car.
Really loved my shirts and stickers.Thanks again for all you and your family do
Always enjoy Monday with Pudin and Mortske!
Just finished my 68 firebird build last week, it’s my first car. I’m so glad more content dropped!. Very few fun videos to watch about the first gens. Fly free bird.
The Fire Turd is a gem. I always thought they looked better than the Camaro. Hot Damn! 🔥👍
It's about time Slick 50 find some safety glasses. Every time he didn't in the past I would remember when I had ran out of luck.
Woohoo, it’s Monday Puddin time!!!!!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
For two guys that don't do exhaust, you two guys did an excellent job! It looks awesome.
Nice! always a great video when the Puddin and friends are together.
Damn I need this right now. My Dad had one just like this. I only seen one picture of it. He went all through it supposedly, completely re-built the car. Gold car. He's in the hospital and likely wont be with us much longer. I really hope I find that picture.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
✝️🙏
Thanks Puddin and Slick, you got a lot of work done and didn't have to redo much, so that's a win in my book!! Love the car!
Hello Puddin,Theo and Slick
Good to see slick looks more comfortable on camera over time. BTW since you taking Carter right now I been running an electric Carter fuel pump for about 5 years in my 83 Toyota mini truck. Was supposed to be temporary but there's nothing more permanent than a temporary fix that works.
Hoping 4 this Saturday waiting till they get settled in
Hot damn here we go with another good one with puddin and slick fiddy
Hey y’all that little plastic piece that is supposed to be under the radiator is also an air deflector for cooling. I think you guys get one of those and the shroud and the cooling issue will be fixed along with cleaning out the mud. Great videos
There's a sheetmetal deflector that fits between the water pump and block on Pontiacs and it's missing or rotted away. A common mistake made these days since nobody is a poncho expert any more. Google classic industries Part#F922.
Jump in Theo, it's Puddin poncho power time !!
A brake spring install tip. Use a #1 large and long Phillips head screwdriver. It let's the spring slide down onto the top pin.
Great looking rig. Can’t wait to see it completely finished. Slick definitely deserves it. Glad to see that burnout!
You guys make a great Fab team, enjoyed the Video as usual, you made it happen and got it back up and running, finish off the Cooling system should be a fun cruiser, tell Slick he knows his stuff when it comes to the proper finish and color. It looks Original with that satin fade look. You guys brought yourselves to School! With those calipers Lol
ive watched your videos for long time and always get a laugh in , but when slick said utt oh, please dont, and how quick he said it... i about died laughing.. i already know thats a funny conversation 😂😂
Definitely need a sticker that says " Body By Slick " id buy one or three
Years ago before cell phone cameras we memorized the situation before disassembly! Use your cell when disassembling something like drum brake assembly!
Love it when you guys tag team these projects! You guys gotta find a Bonnie and Clyde to do, a mix between the bird and the model a would be beautiful! Definitely open a can of worms with lifting the model a lol. Haven't commented in a while but haven't missed a show since I started watching a few year back right before the yee-hawl.
So cool to see Slick coming out of his shell. Nice work this episode!
I truly love videos with all 3 of you! Seeing Bill around reminds me of having my dad around before he passed away.
Slick plz take your time I think as long that car been your family I know u like get up running looking good ,even I love firebirds
Another day, another Puddin' special. I think Back Track Bobby showed up on those upside-down calipers! 🤣
Chit yall I love that car .. You lowered it so gettin off you ass to finish the project .. priceless .
Sometimes excitement overlooks the obvious. Both Slick and you were reliving the old high school days and just forgot what you were doing. As far as the overheating problem it could be the air flow across the radiator or the lack of a shroud or just a lousy radiator. My guess is you both will figure it out eventually. Be careful and stay safe my friends God love you brother.
Back in the old days when I worked on these old Pontiacs we would raise the car up and go through the fender well above the wheel. It made it easier to get most of the plugs.
Hope this helps for future use.
That's going to make a fantastic driver. Love the firebird build.
Good evening from Cape Cod ⛵ I saw that bleeder facing down and I was yelling at the screen, you guys ain't listening 😂 all the work you guys did to that firebird really paid off. Now you just have to address the overheating problem. Great video guys ✌️🇺🇲
Thanks Puddin! Lots of work on that ol' Fireturd! Great to see you and Slick working together!
When Puddin and Slick say things together it looks and sounds like the OK version of Wayne's World.
love seeing that firebird looks like one we had in our family a long time ago
❤ Had my 71st birthday great To see you both working together
Sounds Tough. You guys worked your tails off. I can't believe how much you got accomplished in just a few days. The way you put the exhaust together was impressive. I never though about doing the exhaust that way. Keep it up.
Cool the old Pontiac parts shelf back in the limelight!!!
Glad to see this car at least roadworthy. Try a different fan, and a shroud, hopefully that will fixth overheating problem!
Nice car Slick!
Good shot it's puddin time baby let's go
I think every Gearhead in America has seen that episode of Engine Masters with the dinged header pipes,. I love the color on that Bird. Good work Gents!
I love it when the gang is back together.
I actually had a set of those flowsound mufflers. I thought they sounded good! I was screaming at my phone, "you have those calipers on upside down"! I like the old bird! Keep the good content coming I love it!
Slick and puddin. Great episode. Can’t wait to see this thing out actually cruising
I love that car. It’s always fun to watch slick working with you.
For that increasingly dirty floor, pick up a long handled scrub brush (for floors) from Home Depot/Lowes. The spray a heavy coat of cheap oven cleaner from Dollar Store. Give the spray some time to 'work' before scrubbing and then rinse with water and squeegee out the overhead door.
Im the guy who puts headers on my truck and used the floor jack and jacked the collector 18 inch long extension pipes up into the floor board and almost everything else I've owned since then all got exhaust swapped back to exhaust manifolds and engine down pipes
The real question is, while you were over there building the worlds longest extension, was Slick over there working wondering what the hell you were doing 😂 lol
That firebird looks good in that color and wheel combo 👍
Starter looks over at the header and says. "You smell something burning?" :D
The body lines look nice and straight from here!!! Nice work!
I had a Pontiac 400 in my Cutlass back in the day with the same cooling issue, I capped off the heater core lines at the pump and put a cooler thermostat in it and cured the problem.hope it helps
Wow I missed how the inside needed some love! Well done fellas👍
1:08:31 I have a 69 Datsun 510 2 door sitting in my garage right now, minus the trans cooler. Half way through rust repair. That was so cool to see you use a 510 ❤😍😍😍😍. I discovered your channel because of the Datsun's. Would love to see you do a 510. They are lil rocket ships. Iykyk. C'mon!😂
i dont have a single engine firing order memorized , dont plan on it either
BUT my 76 ford 360FE came with factory plug loom holders that keep the wires in the correct order AND NEAT, so you can pull off any or all plugs and just have to put them back on in order the loom holder thing has them in.
ITS A NO BRAINER!
I had the bleader screw upside-down on a clutch master one time amazing how they work correctly.When faced the right direction.
As long as you look good, you be good. And that car looks goooood.
I love your channel. You guys are always so fun to watch. Thanks again for such a fun episode
Pontiac engines have a sheetmetal deflector that fits in behind the water pump to direct the flow of coolant. Yours is missing or rusted away. Goo gle Classic Industries part# F922.
You guys have so much fun working together! Good seeing Slick and Bill! Need to do Bills next.
I'm glad to see all that CRC Brakleen is being put to VERY good use!!
You gotta be outta your mind to swap out long tubes for shorty headers....mysawell run the stock manifolds. Love the show!
The copper washers on banjo bolt fittings are made very hard these days if you heat them up with a blow torch it makes them softer and they seat better
The Car looks so good!!! You don’t see them in that kinda Condition. They are usually Fully restored or Completely Rusted out. The Car looks just Too Cool Jack 70’s Style Street/drag car! She needs the Perfect Fitting set of Chrome Cragers! They loook freaking Crazy if the Stance with the rims are mint! Great Job guys!!! Looking forward to seeing it all the way on the running like a Swiss Watch,and by the way it sounds really good on the video!
I went to put a set of shorties on my ‘17 Mustang and figured newer vehicle, name brand parts with a RUclips degree it should be a breeze in my driveway on some stands right? RIGHT?! I put them back in the box and they’ve been sitting there for almost 2yrs. 😂
On my '76 Cutlass, I had to switch from a 2 row radiator to a 4 row radiator when I swapped the heads, intake and carb on my 350. I also switched from a flex fan to dual electric fans.
You guys having fun! That's also fun to watch!
Love y'all together perfect content!!!!
Love the Firebird content! 😁👍
You guys adhere to my favourite saying. “What’s better than perfect? Done!”
Hahah love the burnout 🔥at the end
You both are brothers in arms. Never calling you to fo a brake job tho lol
That thang sounds good!!
43:03 best bench bleed is naked orbital sander put to the side of a filled unit. You will see instant results afew pumps and repeat. Easy peasy. Solid petal every time.
She's a thing of beauty of sho,,,,sounds great too!
Im loving the fire bird looks good sounds good keep fixing the old girl 👌💪🔧
Assuming the radia coils are clear, a shroud would be a good addition to improve airflow. Love how you guys keep a good attitude thru thick and thin - very enjoyable episode. Thanks for all you do to keep us entertained. (Theo's thought clouds are always a hoot!)
1:20:30 You can buy replacement wheels for the line cutter.
One thing I noticed was you attached your temp sensor to the cylinder head as opposed to the intake manifold where they're usually connected. You'll get temps that are a bit higher there at the head. The headers are close to the head as well.
Tell Bill The fastest factory production vehicle in 1970 Pontiac GTO Ram Air 4 outran, even the LS6 454 450 hp Chevelle and the Ford mustang SCJ 428 and Mopar road runner 440 6 barrel and AMC Gremlin, X 401 4speed took 2place Don’t forget Zinc and phosphorus for the oil or 15-40 Diesel oil
1:49:01 that wheel is warped lol
Very lol
Or loose lugs!
Bad lol
I was just about to comment this or something like it anyways 😂 I figured something was bent or the wheel wasn't mounted flat onto the drum, stuff happens when you're on that final stretch rushing to get'r on the pavement lol-ol-ol
Beautiful bird
Puddin and Slick50 at it again great ride
the color won me over
Puddin drill a very tiny hole in the thermostat, sometimes when engines have been torn apart the engine gets steam locked. The tiny hole allows the steam to move to the radiator
Hey man they make a tool to pull the seal on that changer lever to install a new one.
Yes there is a leaver seal on that th 400 trans..if it not leaking leave it alone. If you do change the leaver seal, check out the Cornish nail that holds the shift shaft and manuel Valve together.❤
Guys get rid of the flex light fan. Buy and electric fan for that thing and call it a day. I mean there has to be a Junkyard fan setup you can find that will do the job. Plus the fans are pretty cheap to buy. That is a DAMN Good Sounding Car there Bub. Slick is a lucky man be able to Drive such an awesome Piece of History like that.
