- I've once again acquired someone else's problem with this 1976 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray plagued by years of neglect and poor workmanship. Can we bring it back from the dead?

"I can see smells" - Dalton 😂Also hell yeah we want a part 2!
I mean NO DISRESPECT of any kind because this channel is one of my top 5 channels to watch. I honestly hope I get here with my garage someday. But when you said "we put a used window unit in" it caught me off guard and I couldn't help but laugh till my side hurt. The randomness of this channel is the absolute best!!! NEVER CHANGE FOR NO ONE!!!
Yes part 2 part 3. What ever it takes.
What ever you do all of Us will watch it.
Best RUclipsR.
i second that. id definitely love a part 2 on im invested in this vette now lol.
I third that , watch anything Dalton and the gang do , I look forward to Polebarn , JCS , Buff , JYD and Puddin content much better than the shit that is called TV these days :D
I agree with them the best you tube channel
'Those are going on the dumpster, so they can never hurt anyone again.'
You, Dalton, are a 👑 Among Mechanics.
Chrome won't get you home but you'll look more cool as you wait for the tow truck.
No hidden agendas, no fakery, no bull. Just good honest hard work, and entertaining us in the process 👌🏻👍🏻
Friends don't let friends use FRAM!!
I used Fram Filters on my ol Ford Ranger sold it w 250k miles never had any issues
Before you slam it
Please don’t Fram it
Silver and Gold Frams are fine, it's the Orange ones only that are Junk...
Dad's van had almost 300k on the original engine running Fram orange filters on it. They really aren't that bad when you do consistent oil changes. I have since changed to Baldwin filters as my local farm supply carries the complete line and oil costs 5-15% cheaper there for the same brand name stuff you get at the auto parts store.
Yah I use them only for flushes I’m rebuilt a motorcycle swapped go kart and I have to do like 4 flushes to get all the bearing material out, and 3 dollar fram filters for the win in that case
Keep the Vette going it’s a good story and I’m sure the outcome will be even better! It really is showing how you can do any car well on a budget that the new comers need to see. Keep up the good work!
Part 2 can't wait. Thank you for your time and everything you do for us Gearheads out here
Dalton, you are killing it with the videos. You are doing so good, i bought some merch and became a member. Your channel, Mr.Goodpliers, Cold War Motors are the only channels I actually look forward to watching. Keep up the great work man.
Thank you!!
Definitely want a part 2 and part 3! Really enjoy your style, you work like a lot of us do, car on jack stands, rolling around on the floor/dirt.
Just cracked my first beer, perfect timing after a hard days grind.
Shoot if you made a 10 part series on the car I would watch. You have become my favorite channel to watch on youtube!
Absolutely love that you're doing another C3! My wife had a '77 L82 when we were in university, I had a 1987 Thunderbird TurboCoupe, both were a total hoot. I'm a Mopar guy by upbringing, I have a Dodge Challenger R/T now, but I absolutely love C3 Corvettes. Second favourite generation after the C2's.
I lusted after a hydraulic flaring tool similar to what you use when I was in the trades back in the early 2000's, but I wanted the kit that did all the goofy friggin push to connect flares that the big three seemed to be in love with starting in the late 80's as well. Never got one. But I have the manual version of the double flare tool you're using, saw Kevin over at Junkyard Digs using it and it saved me so much time and frustration when I had to do a bunch of the brake lines on my last winter beater.
I... don't know how, but Dalton, you seem to have mastered the art of the good bad decision. You have a way of taking cars that arguably are worth less than a trash bag full of soda cans at the scrap place, and turning them into running, driving vehicles that are at least vaguely safe enough to arguably flip and resell them, or pass on to friends, as long as the buyer or friend knows a little about wrenching.
Literally every car I can think of that you've bought has turned out to be something where if I knew the person who'd bought it, I'd tell them to fill it with fireworks, find an empty field that was nothing but mud and dirt, and see what kind of a Fourth-of-July spectacular they could make with it... and on a Dollar General budget and a six-pack of cans of whatever's on the cheapest sale at Wal*Mart this week and will approximately get you drunk, you turn it into a running, driving vehicle that, again, if kept by someone who at least knows maintenance basics, could be a rock-bottom daily driver for them.
I don't know how the heck you do what you do, Dalton, but please don't ever stop. You, sir, are a force for good, however unlikely it may otherwise seem.
Alright again being a member pays off
Yes, it's so good!
Best $10 I spend every month!!
100% worth it!
Worth my 10 for sure!!
@@stannie99no its not
We watch you for these video. We'd love these projects in parts. Whatever works best for you man
"and you know what? We're gonna paint this thing, mostly out of spite, because fuck this thing". This line had me in tears😂
I love a C3 Corvette.
A friend of mine had a red 74 with silver interior.
It was gorgeous x
You have an incredible amount of subscribers, and nobody deserves it more than you congratulations Dalton
I'd like to see a part 2 and part 3. C3 Corvettes are becoming more appealing to me after watching you work on them.
More about the’76 C3 please. Drove a’76 L 82 and a ‘73 big block 45 years ago. I love the C3s.
i am a small engine mechanic and i use super clean in my ultra sonic carb cleaner, works amazing
Want to see it painted ,you are great at it .
Do more with this car. I own a C3 and when guys work on them I pick up so many tips and tricks.
Hell yes we need more of this build. Need to see it to completion
Ez outs only started working for me once I started to use the largest one available without getting into the threads. It helps release the tension as well as using a bigger ezout
I agree. I don't own a parts washer but what I do have that I think you'd really like. I use a product called Gunk Carb & Parts Cleaner. It comes in a 96 oz can with a Dip Basket. Berryman Chem-Dip Carburetor Cleaner and parts cleaner is another good option.
Yes. Part 2. I need to see how much more horse power you give it with the paint job
Definitely want to see a part 2 and 3
Yes to more episodes! How bout some candy paint over some heavy metal flake! Would fit this build.
JD seriously has the coolest dad. He's also the coolest kid.
My squarebody just seized the moter, watching PBG to help with the pain
I'm not a Corvette fan, but I'm still watching just because it's Dalton! I hope to have a beer or 2 with you one day. Love the content.
For sure. More Vette content.
I think you did the right thing putting the other motor in. You knew it ran, at least.
From the looks of the spark plugs in the motor that came with the car, I would say it's a no go there. Yikes!
Safe travels on your trip.
Thanks for the C-3 brake tutorial; you are quite the professor. Really, I mean it, you are were quite informative.
Again i really like that you priced the rebuild for the caliper
Yep..always easy to watch n to follow..you know your stuff n you never give up..awesome teacher n it shows in your son ..friends and family..thanks
Ima lovin the a/c. Don’t go the way of most channels and get greedy and presumptuous. I watch you because of relatability and your humor not because you start spending money on crews of people to make you look good. My favorite channels are Fitzie, Halfass garage, street Rat, and you. All of these channels are personable and relatable. JD is a big plus also.😊
Let’s do as many parts as it takes to make a nice rig that isn’t cobbled together. Nice work.
This car is screaming 90s I remember going to car shows back then and all those added things were the coooooool things to have 😅😅😅
Definitely pt 2 and 3. Love the videos! Keep em coming!
This is already a fun build to watch. That red interior limits your tractor paint color choices a bit, to Fordson Gray or Farmall Red. I'd go with the latter.
Absolutely a part 2 & 3, thanks for all the great content
Having AC in the shop is an absolute game changer
I dont know if you'll see this, but for me, you can just go ahead and assume that I'll be on board for as many parts as you're willing to make. Love your content, man. Keep it up 👍
Yes please show a part 2 and 3! Great video
Yeah Dalton, that Vette would look so much better sanded and painted, even with tractor paint.
Wow, 25 seconds. That's a first for me.
2 minutes for me! It’s nearly 2am over here in Australia! 🥲
Not for me. I always finish in 25 seconds... 😏
Considering I could use some motivation on my own... I'm all for a part II! lol Honestly, it doesn't look nearly as daunting as I thought it was going to be.. but I have almost all new parts to go on, I'm just dreading the rear trailing arms and setting up the bearings for the van steel setup!
Oh yea I want to see more. I really do enjoy watching you work on "old garbage". lol
You mentioned Holley's clearance in another video, I got a Pontiac SFI flex plate for $12...
Onward with the Corvette adventure!
Loving the new format- also- Kudos- your Son is gonna be ASE MASTER MASTER soon. Great job!
Good job Dalton enjoy the content especially with your family.
Good vid, nice to see a neglected car get some honest attention.
Can't wait to paint. Please do a part 2
This is a man that sells you a vehicle and states THERES NO GUARANTEES once you drive away 😂😂
Looking forward to next part
My second favourite Corvette, my favourite has to be the C4. Some would say I lack taste, but….as Jaguar owner I can appreciate the finer things. Check out the film ‘Corvette Summer’, available on RUclips, stars Mark Hamil and Annie Potts in her break out role.
You said this Visio was different but I liked it. Educational yet entertaining. Two thumbs up 👍👍
.Thanks for the vid. You said, "Suffice it to say." I love smart guys!
Would love to see this build progress.
Life lesson"s by Dalton, it doesn't get any better then that!
That broken balancer bolt I’ve been there done that and feel your pain nothing ever works had a similar issue where a tech was doing a timing belt job and when he went to loosen the crank bolt thing just snapped off we tried everything lol nothing worked so now the cars getting a used engine smh
Big yes on finishing the vette . Also video was great .!👍👍
That subtle sarcasm always gets me 😂😂😂
Nice instruction on the brake work. 👍🏻
So much chrome!
X-Treme Oil Change @ 7:45
Now we have to see the darn thing finished.
Another great video thank for sharing your time with us can’t wait for the next one
that air powered engine hoist is the bee's knees !
Yup, need a part 2 and 3.
A glutton for C3 punishment. I'd like to see this car run and drive. Side note, I got my square body shirt yesterday and it's really soft and good quality. I was really hoping to see that trucks resurrection.
I am hoping for a series like the silver dollar chevy!
Somehow I was unscripted from your channel yet I love it. What the hell.
Yes we need a part two
Definitely want to see more !!!
That van rules. I've always wanted a van.
Hell yes bring on all the parts to the vette including peppering and paint with a quality paint no tractor paint
Want to see you going down the road in this "stunner" so YES, another one when you get back, if that counts.
See ya next time hope you're trip was enjoyable.
Enjoyed this and yes I want to see more of the vette,
I think the video was great… definitely would watch a part 2 and beyond.
Part 2 please.......thankyou.
P.S. have fun with the Family.
Safe journey.
I swear 1 day I will make my dreams come true 1 meet you and get an autograph and 2 go on power tour. Simple bucket list just hope I get er done in the time I have left
Would love to see more on the vet. Where in Wyoming are you going? I’m in Saratoga for the next Isa.
Just wonder what paint hes going to use the good old tractor panit it be good as new top job keep up the great work from james in the uk 🇬🇧
Deffinitely want to see more of this car; C3 Corvettes are hot!
Yes I want to see the vette finished
Great video really enjoy your content one of the best out there👍🏻
nice video man, couldn't wait to see that vet hit the road or do a burnout at least.
C3's can truly be a pain in the axle with all of the frickin plastic parts, and certainly aren't for everybody, but they're still some of the (relatively) direct and to the point vehicles that I've worked on over the years. That '77 steering column going into ANYTHING... The "Look at me! I'm a one-off year everything model!" … That's brutal self-torture all on its own.
We want a full restoration pleeease!!!!
Let’s see at least one more on the vette. And congratulations on the installation of the AC unit. Thanks for another great video Dalton and JD. Safe travels to Wyoming. Will be looking forward to seeing the content on ur travels. Take care and stay safe. Happy Independence Day to y’all. 🇺🇸🗽🎇🎆🍻🍔🌭
Dang A/C in the shop?? All that you tube money paying off 😏
I believe 76 was the last year for the stingray body style. My sister had one.
Definitely keep going. I know you usually paint with whatever you have on hand… but can I make a request?
If trying to make it look decent, baby blue/sky blue.
If you just want a laugh, John Deere Green.
The paint is probably part of the Scorpion Security System! [See driver's window decal] Cuz, who'd want to steal that f'ugly thing, (or buy it for that matter)????🤣
Are you going to paint it winboldon white, don't forget the shorts with the sneakers and t& socks with the polo shirt 😂🎉
