Hi there guys that a car that people dieding to get in mate . Looking great guys i love the look mate it would sound great to with the Ls in it you guys done a shithot job guys So be safe guys
I have never had a LS motor and after watching this I will stick to my old V8s . This hearse would have been great with a 454 out of a motor home. Easy and plenty of torque. You’re a kickbutt builder. If it gave you this many problems it would have shut me down. Killer build though
Mate you can see where Ghevys got the idea for the fuel set-up from its a great idea i like it i won't to do the same idea to my kustom Ford zephyr mate i got 1959 bullet tail lights i put it in the behind one of them my is on LPG mate its Getting very hard to find a service station sale the shit Time to step up mate
1995 Superior Fleetwood owner here (just cause I can): since you are making your own rear seat, have you considered a shorter backreast with headerests, or headrest shapes on it? It would give you about the same comfort back there, about the same safety, but a little more rear visibility? I mean, no one buys and drives a hearse thinking about visibility or gas mileage, but every little bit helps. Been having a blast watching your progress, the build is gorgeous, and I feel your pain at every setback! [And once again, I commented before watching the whole video....]
Imagine driving by and seeing Mabel parked in front of the cemetery and the headlights turning on and off... Bummer about the transmission, the never-ending-battle continues (which is great for us!).
The hard long hours you have put into her . she'll fight you all the way any on that final day when you've done everything she wants you do ..she'll come through...hard work pays off...
Wish I was closer . Would love to cruise with the two of you . I have a 1949 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery. It’s chopped 5 1/2 inches and everyone thinks it’s a hearse. Black of course. You know I have to haul around an old wooden casket in the back . Would love to share pics of it with you, let me know if that’s possible
@ lol, no , almost 6 ft tall and lots of headroom . Seat selection was spot on. It’s a true Frankencar. Pieces from lots of different cars went into the build, interior and exterior
Don't lose faith! It's a complex construction, don't worry, it will run as it should. The transmission may need oil, or if it's used without being checked, it may need maintenance... greetings and good luck!!
So the gas gauge does not work? If you said I miss it. And trying to remember but did you not build the trans, these are all questions I am expecting you are going to have to answer from your Witch, cause I know my Witch would be all over me about it. But I was surprised when you took her on the first maiden voyage, Thinking to myself not smart, but then you are more talent than myself, But nothing like bringing back the older cars and you have done a great job on this one both of you have
It would badass if you made the back seat fold down flat like on some trucks so that the it'll sit flat even with the rear deck. That way you can see the "til death" sign clearly from the back door.
That would be awesome! I haven’t quite committed to a system yet. Perhaps I got to see if I can find some better hinges or make something from scratch.
Great video as usual ...Just a thought, but maybe you picked up that bad luck from the old vampire voodoo mishmash mask ?... Who knows? haha....And your Big Block idea would be a most excellent choice sir.....Old School brutal simplicity.....You know it makes sense!
Wow, Mabel looks and sounds great. Aside from the transmission, you're down to a few minor glitches. Noticed the speedometer isn't working. Is it an issue with the transmission or the cable?
@@Theoldironworkshop I have faith you two,your accomplishments are admirable,you get more done in a day than some of the jerkys around here,pretty awesome work considering what you dont have for equipment,your imagiation gets you farther than alot of folks who have more,,,,keep up the bood work thanks for letting me tag along
@Theoldironworkshop no I don't have anymore n I bought at a Storage Auction for $10 for the whole Unit n I got alot of good stuff out of that unit n you need to check out all the Auctions in you area n Kansas is having alot of Farm Auctions out there n alot of Good Cheap Antquies n Cars n Trucks n Stuff n oh ya Old Signs
@@TheoldironworkshopThat engine doesn't have AFM does it ?!! Active Fuel Management. It's a big job changing over the the regular LT hydraulic lifters.
The Curse never ends. noticed that at the top of ur driver door there is a opening, looks like it needs a seal at the top? otherwize almost good to go. YEA! trans trouble..
Yeah, I need to do a different door gasket. The ones I got just aren’t really gonna work, but since nothing is available, I gotta make do with what I can find.
Excellent 👌
It’s 5pm here in London dark and cold
I’m off to Texas for an hour with my favourite channel ❤

Well tee-haa

Chances will be taken, that's for sure...
I never figured Mabel for a squirter, but it goes to show you never can tell. lol You have done a helluva job on this build..
C'est la vie.
I admire the artistry and craftsmanship you both have shown. Not a lot of people could do what you do.
It’s all just arts and crafts
Excellent video once again.
This is an excellent build you're doing a marvelous job. Hopefully everything will settle in and it becomes more reliable.
Man I've loved this odyssey into oddness! Thanks for all the trouble you guys have put into dragging us along!
Amazing video as always ! 1 step FWD and 2 back always the way.
Coming along nice, I love this build, one of my faves on YT right now !!!

I’m watching all your vidéos back from France 🇫🇷 and I’m having so much fun, thank you! 😅
It’s always something! That’s hot rodding! Always a challenge
Interior is beautiful
Great job. My OCD says you need a solenoid button to open drivers door. You Gonna rip your shoulder out. Lol. Have a good week. Good job. 👍👍✌️
No kidding
Mr Anderson ...........Yup ....... It's always something. 👊😎👍
Sir, I can't wait to see your next project. Thank you both, Queen and king for sharing your talents and skills,
Thanks for the encouragement, we have a lot of projects
First f***** snow here today...good to have a ride with you for a change.
Right on. Wish I had some
She saves you again!!! Nice your back on!
Thanks for the entertainment, sooner or later you will have fixed all the problems
You got it. We’ll see if it actually works though.
Hotrod caddy looks great! No fuel ... like watching a video of myself ! good luck with the trans

Yeah I think a big block would have been better
@ I finished up that 27 coupe I was building. Now starting a 27 roadster 454 single 4 blower B&M turbo 400 . I’m finally making time for this stuff
The never ending stage of working the little gremlins out it's a cool ride and hopefully you can get the little details work out soon
Man that thing is so cool!!! Loved seeing it driving
Happy holidays to you and your loved ones. Exciting video... she is on the move.
Thanks, same to you
You have done a great job, it looks fantastic!
Getting closer!
Mate you can see where Ghevys got the idea for the fuel set-up from
its a great idea i like it i won't to do the same idea to my kustom Ford zephyr mate i got 1959 bullet tail lights i put it in the behind one of them my is on LPG mate its
Getting very hard to find a service station sale the shit
Time to step up mate
Mabel is a gorgeous car, just need to a few bugs ironed out, but I have the confidence that you will get it sorted out.
Rome wasn’t built in a day
That interior is to die for. 💀Literally ☠️

I don’t really care for the look up headrests so that’s not a option. Or maybe if they’re a little teem stones who knows
Looks Great And They definitely like to running on Gas Definitely looks like it Buggy down the road
Planning on purchasing a Chevy suburban hearse. White, air bags, low profile tires and twin turbos.😎
Nice
Gotta say it again, thats a great lookin car!
Thanks, it's getting there!
Mr. B. Here ! 🍩☕️👀😎👍 : It’s really nice to see a vehicle that is older than I am back to life , ⚰️💀👀😎👍
Freaking awesome, Dude!!!!
Imagine driving by and seeing Mabel parked in front of the cemetery and the headlights turning on and off... Bummer about the transmission, the never-ending-battle continues (which is great for us!).
It’s part of pain and misery and part entertainment I guess.
You’re getting there! This episode was a real gas!
Bahaha
NICE !
Hey, I have some advice - - keep doing what you’re doing love your channel and you guys crack me 😂up cheers from NH
Appreciate the love and support, it means a lot!
Power steering?
Now that's a grocery getter man that's clean black Pearl with a lace roof man black smoke
Man I love this car am watching from Trinidad and tobago keep them videos coming ❤👍🍺
Appreciate you watching!
For Rollers , you can use Skate board wheels
Good idea, I
@Theoldironworkshop ya plus they are cheap
I love it ,got no gas in it thank you for sharing the pain
I will watch this video later with my wife. For awhile there i thought you were leaving us all hanging.
Just gotta keep working out the bugs I guess. She'll get there. I just ordered a Mabel hoodie, I'll wear it while I work on my hearse.
Thank you. Bugs or Demons.
The hard long hours you have put into her . she'll fight you all the way any on that final day when you've done everything she wants you do ..she'll come through...hard work pays off...
Are you talking about the car or the wife? Maybe both

It’s on my list to check. That and holy water.
Kick ass ride 😊😊😊😊😊😊
It'll be okay in the end; just keep picking away at it. [Mabel is just testing your perseverance]
I need holy water
Sweet Ride!

Hehe

No, the gas gauge is not hooked up. And I did not build the transmission. I bought the engine and trans used out of a wrecked vehicle.
It would badass if you made the back seat fold down flat like on some trucks so that the it'll sit flat even with the rear deck. That way you can see the "til death" sign clearly from the back door.

The cursed idol. I hope it’s ok since it’s in my living room
@Theoldironworkshop Let's hope so! If not it'll have to be Frisbee'd haha
All I can say is take that bad boy to Richard and Teresa precision transmission in Amarillo, Texas.
Wow, Mabel looks and sounds great. Aside from the transmission, you're down to a few minor glitches. Noticed the speedometer isn't working. Is it an issue with the transmission or the cable?
The transmission doesn’t use a cable. I need to send the whole thing off to get updated.
Back seat pockets arm rests or folding cup holders
Or armrests that are cupholders too
That would definitely work.
👌👌👌 CADI 👌👌👌 🎉🎉
Is that a backfire??? or did something fall off ??? beer comin out my nose,,,thanks
That’s pretty much every trip

come on man... No back up lights? LOL
Seems Ms. Mabel acts like she hails from Ohellno County, Mississippi...
20/20 comment - Should have had Custom DOA plates for use during this build. ☠️
Been working on that
Laura... but did you know it was closed!!
I think one of our most watched shorts was when Edna ran out of gas after dropping Chance off at school. Gas goes a long way lol
Not the way I drive
2016 Chrysler 200s electric power rack is a little more compact
Might want to get a fuel gage!
It’s on my list
I had 2 Tiki lion stands n I sold them on Market Place for $40 & an Antquie store told me they were worth $1400 omg I felt sick to my stomach 😆
If you got any more, you wanna get rid of, hit me up
@Theoldironworkshop no I don't have anymore n I bought at a Storage Auction for $10 for the whole Unit n I got alot of good stuff out of that unit n you need to check out all the Auctions in you area n Kansas is having alot of Farm Auctions out there n alot of Good Cheap Antquies n Cars n Trucks n Stuff n oh ya Old Signs
Congrats on the lac-a-quacks, Italian Eddie, or Edwina, as the case may be. Not that I care, but the revenue may improve!
If it ain't one thing it's another huh
Ain’t got no gas in it
You don't have a PO Box where fans can send you stuff ( Gifts) on your page that I can find?
Darn it?
Theoldironworkshop@gmail.com
Yep i get that, the hits that keeps on hitting. I hate cars LOL
The car looks sick !! One step closer ! Figure out transmission and drive the shit out of it ! And it is what it is and always will be!! Cheers
Parts on order. Hopefully going to pull it next weekend
1 step closer and a couple back! Building cars is like walking home from the bar ! One step forword 2 sideways!!
Motors knocking, and you ran over that fender skirt a few weeks ago in the back yard didn't you?
I didn’t run it over. But it definitely has the LS lifter tick. It seems to go away once it warms up, but it sounds like I need to replace them.
@@TheoldironworkshopThat engine doesn't have AFM does it ?!! Active Fuel Management. It's a big job changing over the the regular LT hydraulic lifters.
It's just a station wagon with curtains...😂
Pretty much
👍🏻
great to see the old girl*
starting to stretch her legs .. nice work mate
*Mabel .. not the bride🍻🤘
Ha. Yes.
🔥🔥🔥🤙
The Curse never ends. noticed that at the top of ur driver door there is a opening, looks like it needs a seal at the top? otherwize almost good to go. YEA! trans trouble..
Yeah, I need to do a different door gasket. The ones I got just aren’t really gonna work, but since nothing is available, I gotta make do with what I can find.
You reckon she go bear huntin with a switch?
Yeah but it’s fucking cool
Man I had a blast for about 30 minutes. Frankly it was worth it.
Complimenti x il mezzo ,pero'mi chiedo..come fate voi americani usare auto x i morti?
Charp!
^You will make more $$ on scrap metal
Yeah probably
iI Think you need seat belts
I got them
If it was easy everyone would be doing it
p.s..popping or backfires make me think timing nqr
True
I love your car but its stupid looking that low
I agree
I think they use Prius electric steering for these old cars.
Yes, I actually bought one, but I could not get it to fit. I need to regroup a little bit for it.
@Theoldironworkshop good job Man. Great to see it rolling. It's a wild build. Are you thinking of the next build yet. 🤔 👍👍
At the moment I’m going to do some work on my truck. Then a few customers cars then a new project for me
@@Theoldironworkshop keep on rolling along. Stray cat strut. 🐈
