Your new camera operator did a great job with some nice new angles. Hopefully she’ll get some more assignments! Great video.
Some the old Mopars were
"Positive " ground and the wheel lugs are left hand threads on one side.
She actually did pretty good, I've definitely seen worse from adults on RUclips!
Yes sir I totally agree
I have a set of nice leather bucket seats and a bench. You can have for that if you want to come and get them in Taylorsville north carolina
@johnasbury4997 why you telling him?
An old hot rodders trick is to use an 8 volt battery instead of 6 volt. Works perfectly with all 6v starters and 6v generators and gives you more cranking power. Great to see you saving these old cars and getting them on the road again.
Absolutely corect, BUT, you do need to re-adjust your voltage regulator, or else the generator will not charge it, as generator voltage must be slightly higher than battery voltage, or else battery will try to "motor" the generator.
@@michaelbenardo5695 I've never had a problem with that. With the original set-up and voltage regulator it will charge as high as 10V without damaging any gauges or any other components. Maybe if you were to drive cross country you may have a problem however most classic cars are driven less than 100 miles per month, and it works just fine.
Good luck finding an 8 volt battery.
@@stomper2582 I don't know where you are from but in our area, you can stop by Oriley's on any given day, and they are on the shelf waiting to be bought.
@@stomper2582 Gebo's, Tractor Supply, the parts store or the garden department at a big Wal-Mart... or, if you're desperate, the motorcycle dealer (honda, suzuki, kawasaki...)
Always excited to see you guys tackle a project because you always do it justice and do it well. Thank you!
Michael your optimism and positivity is addictive! Love that you daughter is helping with the filming she looks like a natural … thanks for all your content
What a nice video to get as I sit here stuck in the hospital after what was supposed to have been a simple outpatient procedure yesterday. Thanks Michael and holler at me when you're able
Hope you get better soon
Really enjoyed this one! My high school buddy got a "restored" '53 as a graduation gift (repaint and seat covers...) in 1977 and he drive it from Kansas to the east coast twice! Well built cars! Please keep going on this one! Thanks-
Nice to see someone actually clean things up before digging into the project.
Amazing. Those old cars were built like tanks.
It’s fun to see your kids growing up and starting to participate. Mine are a bit older, and it’s so much fun sharing our passion with them.
I bought a 54 savoy (brown over cream) in 1969 for $50 from a guy who got drafted. and got a rebuilt short block from Sears (very inexpensive). These engines (dodge and plymouth) were popular with water pumps on farms. Finally junked it in 1973 a year after graduating high school.
Newer subscriber. Really enjoy the channel and your personalities. Nothing better than turning wrenches with your dad, treasure those moments.
I agree, your camera operator did a great job. That engine looks so familiar as my parents had a 1951 Plymouth flat head 6 fast back, 2dr. We moved to Fl in '56 and it was used for dad to go salt water wade fishing. Was not long before the floor board rusted right out. I have watched other youtubers doing restorations, but your channel is the best. Glad I subscribed.
"Not bad at all" You are a passionated person and a really optimistic ;)
Young lady does a great job on camera! Nice old car. Cheers gents
I love old cars.. this one is in nice shape.
I always love it when Budget Buildz pops up on me PC!
Nice!!
Thanks Lucky 👊🏻
Nice! You definitely love a challenge. 🎉❤ Thank you for your hard work and the enthusiasm and entertainment. God bless your channel. 🙏🏻❤️
That vacuum was doing a near perfect harmony during the 5:19 mark. Nice!
Wow! Nice work fellas!
I really respect what you guys do keep those old girls running please I wish I could do the same as you guys y'all are awesome keep the love for these babies alive 😎😎😎😎😎😎
they are a good looker . and the flat head six strong and reliable she needs love
So cool !! didn't think it would start without pulling the head first . Can't wait for pt. 2 !! nice job fellers !!!
I love this car, the look is fantastic, a classic! Thanks from England
I lovvvvvvved this episode i smiled from the beginning to the end especially when you ran like a goofball!!! Love love your videos!!!
That color is called Shasta green, beautiful when new
A little work and that absolutely gorgeous car will shine again.
Sounds like a John Deere 2 cylinder. Got the green paint just need some JD decals. Glad it didn't get scrapped. Keep it up.
That's pretty cool car I do like it can't wait to hear it run again
That car will clean up very nicely. Looks to be complete and in decent condition
Loved watching this Episode, I just picked up a 1956 Dodge Coronet from a field where it has been sitting for ~50 Years.. So was neat seeing you all get that 6 Cylinder going, only difference on mine is that they switched to 12v+ mid 55, so I can actually deal with a 12 volt system.. Pulling the engine out and going through it before trying to get it to run though, pretty rusty in the Valves and didn't want anything to break, but it does rotate also, which is amazing for sitting in a field for 50 years. Thanks for the great content, and would love to see what you all do with this one.
Never heard of a 55 Chrysler product with 12 volts, EXCEPT for some long wheelbase Crown Imperials.
Same same as always...just woke up. Sipping on my cup of tea and watching you guys. You just know how to find them. Rob, Cairns, Australia
Sounds nice 😊 Hope you enjoy bud!!
This makes everything better!!! Thanks needed this one today!!!
☺️☺️☺️
@@BudgetBuildz Thanks! Not to be a bother but a super quick update on Porsche would be awesome!!! I remember when you brought it home! Absolutely a legendary Car!!!! God bless you and family!!!
@@johncarella1836 We will definitely have an update and some fun driving videos very soon! 😊 Thanks so much!!
Dodge/Plymouth products in the early 50's were positive ground, my '53 dodge 5-window "Job Rated" pickup is positive ground
Great job guys, those old flatheads are tough, this was a premium car in its time. Love your work & enthusiasm!
Excellent video Budget Buildz Mike :) plus dad also sound of that 1954 Plymouth Savoy car plus amazing 6 volt positive ground and is all original there too! Also sounds on engine like my late Uncle Bill JR old 1950 Cockshutt COOP 40 43 hp with 60 torque 6 cylinder motor gas farm tractor was 6 volt positive ground to and lots memories of too ! Motor was 4.0 litre 235 Cubic Inches size 6 cylinder 1 barrel carb Zenith type updraft ! Yes is had honey comb core copper rad plus rad cap too and smoke on cold starts too Lol! But how we clean up smoke problems add 1 gallon Desiel fuel on on 3/4 of 91 octane gas and keep motor cool on long day of work of 12 hours!
Positive ground is why that car didn't rust away!
Always fun to watch
Relaxing show. like it !
Nice car. You Americans have such a fantastic assortment of wonderful cars siting around just waiting to be found and brought back to life and people like yourself and your dad who are willing to do it. Well done guy's, your true champions.
Great video enjoy watching keep up the great work
You did everything 100 percent. Correct in clouding 2 strock fuel. That was fantastic. God bless. Mick Australia)
Just the music grabbed me. Nowing father and son ❤
I know will be a fantastic video. 1 min in
God bless. )
Wow! Nice car.
Gonna share a misconception many people who fool with treasures that we do, is oil appearence. When oil is looked at, it appears to clean fresh oil or having an oil change just before being parked. As engines set for a long time the additive package and contaminents will drift down from oil. That what people will call it sludge and resides at the bottom of the pan. I've drained oil from an oldies and use heavy wire with a bend and poke it in the drain opening wiggle it around and most of the time you get sludge. I've known of guys who've gotten um running only to have a knock develope. That's caused by pickup being a bit submerged in said material. I learned this hard way on a 37 Chevy. Only took bout half mile to start getting noisey. Course it wasJust a helpful suggestion, no criticism.
Thank you for bringing that out! 😃 Good point and I completely agree with you! This is one reason we always drain and change the oil before running an engine that has been sitting this long 🙂 In cases with these older ones, they seem to always have a drain plug big enough to stick your finger up in and feel around too!
That was awesome.
So, 32 years on the road, 37 years laid up and it still wants to go... 🇬🇧👍
Hands down one of my favorite channels you and your father do so e awesome work
Thank you so much!! We’re so glad you’re enjoying ☺️
I enjoyed this so much that I subscribed.My grandmother used to own this year Plymouth, same color, but much cleaner.
Wow, amazing! 😮
I love old flat head engines.
Wow! I can’t believe you guy’s got it started!👌😂👍she sounds like a tractor though! Looking out for the next episode next! I haven’t been able to watch any RUclips lately! But going to check it out and see how she turned out! That’s awesome!
Your little girl does really well with the camera. I'm impressed. Also, you are one of my definite favorite RUclips channels.. The run to the garage and back hilarious.. I like even after you learn its positive ground, you're so careful putting on the normally positive terminal to the negative waiting for an arc... literally laughing out loud. I replayed it three times. laughed every time.
You know how to find the rusty and krusty cars. That is a sweet looking ride. Keep up the great content.
Great stuff, keep it coming...UK
Nice!!! I dunno, prolly pull the head just for GP and do a good cleaning n refresh. Would be cool to see it back on the road though with patina preserved of course.
Great job!!! We were out in your area last weekend for a birthday party
I love rescues like this. Love your channel. Keep it up!
I thought for sure you guys were going to have to take that head off!! Great to see her running!!
It's amazing that you got it running... that was a fun video!
I’m not sure the styling is ‘Art Deco’ by 1954 but maybe a little as a lot of pre war stuff like the flat head engine seemed to carry over into the early 50s and things were still getting going again. Great to hear it run albeit not on all 6 and spewing water everywhere. A survivor that deserves some love if ever I saw one.
Another great video.
Nice one.
Sounds like it's hitting on about four cylinders.Pulling the head for additional tweaking sounds like the next step.
Our family car in the early sixties in Australia was a 1954 Plymouth Belvidere. It towed a heavy old caravan across Australia in 1966. Finally mum demanded a new car when she had to bash the starter with a hammer every time.
Great guys ,great car ! 😁
New camera person was great, no more one handed repairs.
Your dad's laugh is infectious! :)
Hey, this might be out of subject but I've just noticed on back you got a Renault 4cv. Well since I'm French I'd be honored if you need help for ressourcing stuffs on it ;-)
Beside that I've been watching your channel for years now and I enjoy the difference with your channel leading projects from "will it run" to stunning machines than most youtubers putting them back dying in their own backyard. Joss.
You guys get another thumbs up for this one. Cold War Motors will be jealous!
When he said Plymouth flathead, I immediately pictured Mortske trying to tap a stuck valve down. lol
Great job! Your enthusiasm is beautiful 😅!
Same year I was born. The only difference between that car and myself, is; that car looks better then me.
I’m playing a drinking game every time you say not bad, I’m drunk already 9 mins in! 😂
Greta video mate well done!
Cheers Pat 🇦🇺
Love this channel you can make anything run 😁😁💟
enjoyed it !
That flathead six had 110 HP!
My dad owned a 53 Cranbrook. Pretty much identical. First car I remember being in pieces when he restored it in the late 60's. Have yet to watch the video, but will be fun when I can. And why don't they put all glove boxes in the center? I assume this one has that too.
Great as always!🍻
Thanks so much! 🍻
It was the first car I drove, and it was my grandfather's car in Montevideo Uuguay
An unbelievable experience ❤
A grand Ole girl guys, not an expensive car back in the day, but was a great everyday driver for a lot of people. This one will surely run great once fixed up. Remember that old Fairlane you had a bad motor in!!
Andy Bernbaum Auto Parts for the rear glass and seal. ??.. maybe..
Great 👍 content as always guys 😉. Thanks for sharing 😊.
Guys, seems you have found a new camerawoman :D
I see a rusty Renault 4CV over there. Back in 1961 I bought one of those new for $1088. My first new car. An amazing little engine. Four cylinders, five main bearings, wet sleeves, 747 cc, 21hp. It would accelerate from 0 to about 68 mph, but it might take all morning. Do a video on it?
Soo cool! This is about a ‘56 but at some point had a 845cc installed..so it’s a hotrod 🤣 They’ll most definitely be a video! 😃 It has been off the road since the 70s so will be a fun one to get going!
I just subscribed to your channel and enjoyed seeing this video and the video on the 61 Falcon wagon I can definitely learn from watching you
Wow I really enjoyed watching this video. Your new camera operator did a nice job. I really wish they still make cars that look like this. They had a lot of character in those days now they all look the same and they're made out of aluminum foil the kind that you can't even rap a sandwich with.😂lol. If Carl Benz would have seen the cars that they make these days he probably would have said they look much too plain. And that's why I'm a fan of really old cars like this one.
Take a drink every time he says "not bad".
Sounded like an old Harley pan head when she first fired off.
Bonjour,
Je note qu’au début de la vidéo (2.40) apparaît une vieille Renault Quatre chevaux des années 50,j’espère que vous allez vous en occuper pour le plus bonheur des abonnés français !
Amitiés de Marseille,
Michel
Renault 4 CV , yes .
Not bad!
Love this channel. Good job Guys!
Aeesome find
Thanks! Excited to get this one going down the road! 😃
@@BudgetBuildzcan't blame you in the least ever so welcome. My truck is going back on the road soon, another steering column. A towing company drilled out the ignition lock cylinder after the tow truck driver stole my keys
My grandmother had a 53 there is a pull out chock under dash left side when staring cold.
The old oil is clean because the dirt has probably had time to settle to the bottom .
Sweet!!
Hire Harry to put some dents in the roof, LOL!
Nice job on getting this one fired up/driving, and kudos to your young camera-person! Is that a Renault 4CV I see just to the right of the Savoy? My Mom drove one of these for a year or so when I was young (about 1961-62, IIRC)....
1:37- "A tree fell on it at some time..." other than some minor roof damage and a popped rear window...
any modern vehicle would be totaled...at best generate a "salvage" title...
It'll probably buff out isn't too far off!...Nice Find! 👊
Edit-14:20...Run Forrest!😂
makes me want to make my ole Ford truck run its just in a junk pile
