As I watch your and Jenn’s videos, I think of what a wonderful treasure your daughter will have some day. I only have about a 30 second video clip of my father who passed in 2010. Your daughter will have hours and hours and hours of video.
That same exact thought crossed my mind too. When he picked that kid’s bike with training wheels…fast forward 4-5 years. Time flies and kids grow up fast.
A lot of people make you tube will it run videos. But NNKH videos have that je ne sais quoi. This can be due to the creators personality or technical knowledge, the subject matter, even the cinematic quality. NNKH videos have all of those. A bonus is the beautiful growing family we see. Really enjoy these videos, keep them coming !
Watching you work your magic on all these forgotten treasures is a thing of beauty! You definitely have that no nonsense know how! The icing on the cake is when Jen and Gus make an appearance and of course Turbo. Looking forward to meet your beautiful daughter also! Keep up the great work Chris! 💪🏼👍🏼
Hi Chris, great video as usual. That whitewall that separated was something that you added to a black wall to make it a whitewall. I remember adding them to tires many years ago. Whitewalls were the rage for a long time. It was a cheap upgrade. I love watching your videos as you bring life back to so many neglected vehicles. John from Cape Cod
Chris, just wanted to thank you for making videos. My wife generally doesn’t care for most RUclipsrs I watch but she’s become a hardcore NNKH fan, she even bought each of us a hat. We love road trips and exploring so your videos are perfect for us. She really likes updates from Jen and on Autumn and of course Gus!
Hey, awesome to hear that you and your wife enjoy the channel. Thank you very much for ordering hats as well! Greatly appreciate the support. We love doing the road trips and can't wait to get doing more of that in the future again soon!
I've reduced the amount of channel I'm subscribed to... But NNKH is like mental therapy for me. The work you put in to salvage these cars, is motivation for me to never give up
Yeah, I need to do that too, as I must be subscribed to 50 or more channels now, albeit not all cars, but I love the one's with the 'Will it run' in the title! It then becomes a challenge, and Chris does all he can to get them to fire once again!
Oh my God. This is unbelievable. I have been checking into the channel for the last 36 hours hoping something would pop up and I was even looking 30 minutes ago and nothing. Now I check again and I get to have my Sunday morning ☕️ with a huge dose of NNKH!!! Best day since yesterday!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I am so glad that I found your channel about 4 weeks ago. That way everything is new, to me anyway… The knowledge and "backyard trickery" is phenomenal and better than most "taught" techniques. Keep up the great content!!!
Those are the very old Nylon Ply tires , the separated white wall is not really part of the tire. Back then you could actually put the white wall part on separate. It was an added piece that got put on in the bead area, when the tire seated against the rim it would hold the white wall add on in place. Yup , it was a funky idea for sure !!
LOL Richard, you said what I was going to say. And the only reason I would know about the whitewalls being sold as a add-on is because I’m 73. I also bought regular gas for mowing yards for 17 cents a gallon!
@@berrystrim LOL , yes! I am 67 and have actually installed some of them. They can be difficult to keep centered, as the bead pops up it can off center them!
396 BABY!!! Lorenzo is a master machinist. He reminds me of a shop owner I used back in the 80’s. He told me back then that remand engines were going to kill a lot of shops.
Great work Chris, thanks for your videos. I am retired now, was a hearing aid specialist for 19 years. You might want to get some basic harbor freight ear muffs. Your 70 year old self will thank you.
Good story on the old Mopar my dad had one similar in65/ 67black red trim 👌. Once the Mopar story was over I’m gone 😢. Mopar old school for life 👌🇦🇺✌️.
This video showcased endless talent. Chris's skills of course are always impressive. The engine guy...wow what a pro. The the Chevelle guy...so passionate and knowledgable.
This just about put a tear in my eye. I've had a 53 since 2019, a 2 door hardtop with the three piece rear glass, in basically the same shape. Life has gone steadily downhill since then, and the poor old girl has just sat, waiting on the stars to align so I can get her going again. Hearing that flat 6 run really makes me wish I could've gotten mine going. It's also really nice to see the full maintenance paper ont he glovebox door, mine was almost totally rotted away.
Sometimes I feel like you give the big friday show a chance to get views because he kind of helps you a lot but the funny thing is I still want to watch your releases first. Even if it isn't friday. You never really complain about the job, and when you do, we don't feel horrible after hearing it. Glad and happy to be on this ride with ya.
Regarding the peeling off white wall; back when I was a kid, my brothers and I would eagerly await the new Warsharski's (sp) catalog (later became JC Whitney). Had every accessory imaginable, from under the bumper amber colored fog lights to snake oil engine additives. I ordered a set of add-on 3" whitewalls for my 55 Dodge - break the bead, put the edge of it in there, along with ample tire sealant on the back, and Presto! you had a rich man's car with fancy whitewall tires. Of course, they were always peeling away and never looked great, but for a kid with his first car, they were great!
My Brother... I have to give you thanks for your inspiration. I have so many jobs that have been put aside over the years... and honestly, the list has become overwhelming. Watching your videos, I am looking at them with a fresh set of eyes... and getting things done! Yesterday, I rebuilt my massive HVAC unit. Today I am going to rebuild the front end of my vintage VW... and after that, I'm going to get my scooter running! Thanks again and keep up the good work! (Now,, if I could only back up a trailer as well as you do).
This is an excellent video. A Master Class in determination and deployment of some real automotive skills. I must confess I let out a cheer when the elegant lady fired up. All the best to you from a new fan here in the UK!
As a long time hoarder of nuts,bolts ,springs and anything I found I can't fix I salvaged the usable parts . I had to unload most of it due to age & space restrictions . Your storage system for parts is awesomely mind blowing. I am increasingly in awe of your ability and patience to get rusted machines running after years of neglect . Sadly rust is the ultimate killer . Too bad more people living in "rust belts" don't invest in protective undercoating . Always interesting videos Cris ! 👍👍👍🥇🥇 rs
My Dad had a Plymouth Savoy when I was 16 and this episode brought back great memories of my time with him. When you aired up those old tires I thought of the Rising of the Phoenix coming back to life. It was interesting hearing about your 396 engine restoration and about restoring the trunk bottom panels. that blue 396 Chevelle was so sweet to look at and hear running. So glad you love history of heavy medal - this was a great episode.
He's from an ex-Soviet country and doesn't speak English at all 😂 how can you live in America with that level of speaking? 😂 Probably russian or ukrainian Michail "Михаил" like Gorbachev 😂
Thank you for not relying on stupid 'catch phrases' and cutesy witticisms that are used over and over and over again like some channels. I won't mention names but the worst rhymes with 'Mice Flip Barrage'. I really enjoy how you don't rely on a schtick or have to pretend you're a comedian, you've found a great niche and your natural personality is compelling by itself. The bike trips through Philly are great! Keep up the good work!😉
funny thing is that is how a guy talks irl so it's not a catch phrase..don't be so arrogant ..why try to trash talk other channels when you can just keep your opinions to yourself, honestly i like only a handful of automotive channels b/c as a mechanic myself i can see what is true and what is for show..treat others how you want to be treated
Greetings from Sydney NSW: Roscoe, your comment is spot on! I know many blokes who refuse to click on VGG for that very reason. And thanks for your 'mice' clue. Cheers, mate.
Chris,I ama 71 yr old Philly guy.Ur passion for older vehicles is so cool.I'm glad u found a home for the 53 Plymouth and the Camaro IROC.U keep living ur passion,sir and I will keep watching.Oh,owned a Kawasaki KZ400 back in the late 70's.Peace to ur family.......
Those whitewalls were an aftermarket item back when whitewalls were a popular option. They were more expensive, so you could buy those add ons and transfer them to you plain blackwalls to make them look good.
When I was teen, I got some from Z.C. Whitney and put them on my 1940 Plymouth, as the blackwalls that were on it were still good, but looked too plain for my taste.
My first car was a 1953 Plymouth just like this one. Paid $50.00 for it and it was a great car. I used it through highschool 9-12 grade. Never left me stranded. Great memories
Thanks Chris great video really enjoyed to see that old Plymouth fire up... Some years ago my step brother and I would find old cars I'd get them running he'd sell them I'll never forget the time a real old lady with a car in the garage story happen to be a pristine 1969 tempest the woman thought we were crazy that we offered her a whole $600 she took it we brought it home 30 minutes I it running..
Gracias por otro fantástico video, cada vez que hay uno nuevo me pongo muy contento,yo particularmente disfrutaria rebuscado todo tipo de cosas en casas antiguas un saludo para ti y Jenifer y sobretodo para vuestra criatura hermosa 🤱🥳👏👏👏👍
Thanks for the video first thing.and second I hope your's and Jenn baby girl is doing very well.and I agree 💯 about keeping it the original as much as possible.i really believe that everyone has really lost their minds wanting to go ls who cares I believe you can make a original 396 or whatever 60's and 70's motors even better than a ls . people always ruining the vehicle from the old days going to ls instead keeping it as it was meant to be.i am a old school guy that enjoys rebuilding older motors and trying my best to keep all of my old school vehicles old school.
Chris , only watched a few of your videos up to yet , and we are hooked , already i would say you are at the top of the "will it run" guys , your knowledge is far and beyond anything I've watched to date , such a humble & polite person , love the channel , keep em coming !! 👍
The body on this Plymouth was manufactured by Briggs Manufacturing who also made bodies for Packard - Chrysler bought Briggs with a loan from Prudential Insurance when Mr. Briggs died in either 1953 or 54 . Briggs had to sell in order to pay the inheritance taxes on the Briggs estate - this is one of the factors that took Packard down since Packard had to start making their own bodies once Chrysler took over.
Every time I go to pull my trailer out, there will not be any traffic all day, the minute i open the gate it's rush hour on a Friday! Every single time! Lol!
I've been a subscriber for a few months now. I just wanted to say I enjoyed this video and I have enjoyed all of your videos and I still have some of the back catalogue to watch. I like the boats, the cars (of course) and the long trips to do fix and drive home videos. I like seeing the city when you do electric bike reviews and the towns and countryside you travel through on your way to get cars too. It is all great entertainment. I would like to restore an old car myself but I know it is not likely to happen. I enjoy watching you do it and I don't care about the other comments when viewers criticize and say you did something wrong. You do you Chris. It is all good. I wish you and your wife and daughter all the best. Keep it up for as long as you can and thanks again.
Wow, I would have liked to known that Plymouth was a flip.. I had a '54 Savoy 2Dr in High School. I painted the engine white...lol.. Yep, JC Whitney and I got to know each other quit well. Thanks for the show. Find a 2 Dr '53 an let me know.
Thanks for fixing these and sending them on to better homes. So many other "will it run" guys just pull a car from one tree line and get it running and then stick it in their tree line to continue rotting. Best wishes to the family.
Great job getting that old flathead straight-6 running again. 👍 I hope the guy that bought the old car will restore it, and not just scrap it for parts. 25:40 I think the carb are made of a Zinc Alu alloy, which was used quite a lot back in the days. it's strong and cheaper than pure aluminium.
I've been watching you for a while now, great 'short films' love it, I am amazed, I have a lot of 'stuff' and I do know where most of it is in my garages, when I want it, but you must be very neat and tidy when you go for a lead or a pipe its in the lead or pipe drawer! I spent a lot of my time making things tidy but am still in a mess, very methodical and a retired A/C engineer, but you are in a different league fantastic! Englishman from France!
It’s funny how you say that people think New Jersey they think New York or northern New Jersey but I grew up in manayunk, and in my mind, I imagined all of New Jersey as farmland… with the best tomatoes in the world… anyway great show as always! Congratulations on the baby, I’m glad the old car got to see the light today again and hopefully will be restored and running and super happy that you’re taking care of the Chevelle… they are my favorite car, used to have a 67, but being a dumbass I sold it… and now I’ll never be able to afford another… See you next week!
I am 51 and have probably installed 100+ of those plugs for myself, family, neighbors, friends, ect. I have yet to have a single one not last as long as the tire itself.
How neat would it be to restore that old bike and make it ridable again! A present for Autumn. I have one I renewed from the 60's. A Raleigh. Just need a new chain, tires, lube the races or get new bearings. Basically already the stuff you know!!
I really love your channel and you and Jen seem like truly AWESOME people... And congratulations on becoming new parents ❤❤🎉... As far as the white wall separating from the tire, those aren't true whitewalls. They made a paste on/glue on version for about 60 years now... I absolutely LOVE your channel. Thanks for giving us gear heads something to watch ✌🏿👍🏿💪🏿💯
Can not wait to see you and yours driving and riding in that restired SS. My dad had a 69 with a 396 in it. I live at the bottom of Illinois, and he used to take it to Benton, Missouri, and drag race it. Great times.

I so totally do agree with you. The 'No Nonsense' aspect is appealing where the 'Know How' is intriguing.

back in the day they were called "Portawalls" havent seeen those since the 70's
I put four of them on my dad’s 1952 Ford. We called the Mickey Mouse walls.
Bought at general tire or pep boys
Chris, I think you are the most productive person in the "Will It Run" category. You just get in there and "get to it". Amazing.
You have never watched ZipTies

I'm 70. I helped (kinda) my uncle that was a used car dealer. The name Porta Wall Brand comes to mind. Good to know we got our memories.
Port-a-walls. You can still buy them. A friend just put a set on his 1940 Ford.
I love that you're rebuilding the existing engine. Gotta keep those old girls on the road.

Briggs had to sell in order to pay the inheritance taxes on the Briggs estate - this is one of the factors that took Packard down since Packard had to start making their own bodies once Chrysler took over.
Your amazing brother, my son and i enjoy every video you post. Keep it up!!
Hey chris I live in Juliustown that’s pretty cool
pretty neat lil project car, plus in addition: daughters first vehicle, lol.
Neat lil bike when made over a bit
Every time I go to pull my trailer out, there will not be any traffic all day, the minute i open the gate it's rush hour on a Friday! Every single time! Lol!
I've been a subscriber for a few months now. I just wanted to say I enjoyed this video and I have enjoyed all of your videos and I still have some of the back catalogue to watch. I like the boats, the cars (of course) and the long trips to do fix and drive home videos. I like seeing the city when you do electric bike reviews and the towns and countryside you travel through on your way to get cars too. It is all great entertainment.
I would like to restore an old car myself but I know it is not likely to happen. I enjoy watching you do it and I don't care about the other comments when viewers criticize and say you did something wrong. You do you Chris. It is all good. I wish you and your wife and daughter all the best. Keep it up for as long as you can and thanks again.
Wow, I would have liked to known that Plymouth was a flip.. I had a '54 Savoy 2Dr in High School. I painted the engine white...lol.. Yep, JC Whitney and I got to know each other quit well. Thanks for the show. Find a 2 Dr '53 an let me know.
I love that generation Mopar. Nothing fancy, just transportation.

Your reverse trailer skills. Daaam gets me everytime 😮
Soon as I saw that bicycle I knew you were going to grab that for baby.
Nice find!
Thanks for fixing these and sending them on to better homes. So many other "will it run" guys just pull a car from one tree line and get it running and then stick it in their tree line to continue rotting. Best wishes to the family.
Great job getting that old flathead straight-6 running again. 👍
I hope the guy that bought the old car will restore it, and not just scrap it for parts.
25:40 I think the carb are made of a Zinc Alu alloy, which was used quite a lot back in the days. it's strong and cheaper than pure aluminium.
just watch your Fairlane station wagon I believe it was.. 65.. you are an awesome and amazing mechanic. love the squirrel too🐕🐿
I like the hand shake both times lol.
I've been watching you for a while now, great 'short films' love it, I am amazed, I have a lot of 'stuff' and I do know where most of it is in my garages, when I want it, but you must be very neat and tidy when you go for a lead or a pipe its in the lead or pipe drawer! I spent a lot of my time making things tidy but am still in a mess, very methodical and a retired A/C engineer, but you are in a different league fantastic! Englishman from France!
Grab a coffee. Chris is back. Did you find Jimmy Hoffa?
It’s funny how you say that people think New Jersey they think New York or northern New Jersey but I grew up in manayunk, and in my mind, I imagined all of New Jersey as farmland… with the best tomatoes in the world… anyway great show as always! Congratulations on the baby, I’m glad the old car got to see the light today again and hopefully will be restored and running and super happy that you’re taking care of the Chevelle… they are my favorite car, used to have a 67, but being a dumbass I sold it… and now I’ll never be able to afford another… See you next week!
I am 51 and have probably installed 100+ of those plugs for myself, family, neighbors, friends, ect. I have yet to have a single one not last as long as the tire itself.
So cool watching old tires take air.
How neat would it be to restore that old bike and make it ridable again! A present for Autumn. I have one I renewed from the 60's. A Raleigh. Just need a new chain, tires, lube the races or get new bearings. Basically already the stuff you know!!
It looks like a Lil chic. I restored a fairlady years back.
That was awesome that you got that old Plymouth started and can't wait to see the chevelle when it's all done.
You know my man is kicking himself about that coil. I know I would be
Definitely upset about it. It was a nice coil. I trashed it.
I really love your channel and you and Jen seem like truly AWESOME people... And congratulations on becoming new parents ❤❤🎉...
As far as the white wall separating from the tire, those aren't true whitewalls. They made a paste on/glue on version for about 60 years now... I absolutely LOVE your channel. Thanks for giving us gear heads something to watch ✌🏿👍🏿💪🏿💯
The car must have passed it's cat scan.
Another great one Chris I cant believe that ol flathead 6 started up and ran.
I've never had a plugged tire fail
Can’t think of anything more satisfying than watching years old tyres taking air n inflating!
7:14 that is a whitewall ring accessory
Came here to say this
Porta wall I have 3 sets
Can not wait to see you and yours driving and riding in that restired SS. My dad had a 69 with a 396 in it. I live at the bottom of Illinois, and he used to take it to Benton, Missouri, and drag race it. Great times.
Most awkward hand shake ever lol😂
