      I'm pretty sure Puddin said in a video a few weeks ago, that the transmission was starting to slip... Might be time to build a Towrola 2.0!

    I am a gearhead, and that's why I love your channel. But I am a dog lover as well. Theo looked healthier after a couple of weeks, but now he is energetic and playful...and YOUR "Velcro" dog! You are both blessed to have found each other! If you dumped him 100 miles away, he would make his way home to you. Enjoy him, you are his (hero) person. I know you adopted him for the kids, but YOU are his world. Thank you for giving him a home. That made you BOTH happy! Yours truly, DogDad1962.

      @anarky4711 6 месяцев назад +5

      @awj918 Dex and Lucy are the two Pitts in my Pic. The only vicious attack I ever saw either one do was the first time Dex saw me under the hood of my car. Apparently, he thought the car was eating me. So he attacked anything on the car that he could fit in his mouth.

    I have a 67 camaro. They came from factory mono leaf. I’d imagine the Pontiac was the same. Only year like that was 67! Useless information,but if someone is looking for a factory 67 it might help verify the year! Nice car slick! Hope it continues to be passed down your family line! God bless!

    Aint nothing better than a puddin/ slick 50 video. You two working shoulder to shoulder are my favorite videos. Outside of slo- mo powerwashing clips...lol. can you, pudding, spot a couple of bays for ole slick? Get him outta that shed he's in. Think about it. It would be mutual beneficial for both parties. Puddin...you need an extra hand at times. We all do, bro. Slick can still do his own thing. Think about it.

    It’s not just Pontiac, it was all GM vehicles back in the day. I cut my car teeth at a General Motors dealership in the 70s and brackets,adapters,shims and long screws and bolts were all necessary to build these vehicles. Check out the core support mounting area. Unbelievable amount of adjustment 😂. The old guys always said that GM couldn’t build without shims and they had shims everywhere!

    • @rockkhound943
      @rockkhound943 6 месяцев назад +2

      They were engineered this way on purpose. Would have cost unbelievable amounts in tooling to make everything fit so precise. Made more sense to engineer in adjustment with use of shims . Was quite smart but all early vehicles were like this and some are still today .

    Better to have that snake in there than the rodents it’s eating for you :-). Snake won’t stink up the car or chew holes through stuff. Likely just a rat snake. Completely harmless. Even if you messed with one enough to get bit, it’s less severe than a bite from a baby kitten. Nothing to be afraid of. Be afraid of things that can actually hurt you, like ticks or something.

    Man did that thing come out good looking. Really love that car. Can’t wait to see it all. Finished up with an interior and everything.
