Thank you so much for all the body work tips I've never tried doing body work but looking at all the tools and you use them makes me want to learn! And you couldn't of chose a better car... 442 OLDS 👊
That 1966 4-4-2 they show, my first car was similar - a 1966 Olds F-85 Deluxe 2-door hardtop. It was a 300 2-barrel with 3 in the tree and pretty much zero options. It was my dad's car when I was little and he gave it to me for my 16th birthday. We had a custom-bent dual exhaust put in and I jacked up the rear end with air shocks :-)
Thank you Tommy and Joe those voices are why I enjoy PN builds. Can't wait to see Tommy behind the wheels. P.S. Finishing that AMX Javelin would be nice. My two favorite cars Oldsmobile Cutlass and the A.M.X. . Thanks for the show's boys
Thank for explaining door adjustment, gives me some confidence now might try to tweek the doors on my 53 Buick Coupe.Any other tips would be greatly appreciated, Cheers..
heck, even go crazy, a diesel 350 stroker out to 440 or so. some of these builds tho, begin with a free engine coming in the door. funny thing, they could have used a Chevelle and we'd be ok with the LS. but a stroker 455 would be sweet. And if you're going to replace the frame and mintub...come up north and buy one of our rustbuckets that folks are unable to save. Keep this clean body for someone who could do this work easily and just wants a toy, not a complete redesign.
1969 Olds 400 motors had some known issues for performance, ( worse year for Olds 400 motors ) However you could get well over 700hp out of a well build 1965 to 67 Olds 400 or a 425 plus even the small block 330s all came with a very strong factory forged crank & rods that were safe to twist well over 7,500 rpm with out issue. True all the 330s, plus 1966 to 68 /400 & all the 425s were limited to 2 blot mains but a set of ARP main studs should be good for again 8,000 rpm with no issues to keep the car pure Oldsmobile powered a huge plus in many peoples eyes. We see way to many of these LS swaps compared to when you see a stompin 10 bold valve cover of a true Olds motor as they get much more praise for being a pure Oldsmobile and not just another one off. The thing to know is the factory Olds 330 , 65 to 68 400 & 425s all came with factory forged cranks and high nickle casting blocks that are so strong I would not be afraid to use twin turbos. The Olds iron blocks up to 67 are much more stout then you might think. The draw back to using a Olds motor has always been to never use any year 350 Rocket or the 69 400R or any year 455R ever as they all had cast iron cranks that limit rpm under 7,000 rpm, and by 68 ( first year 350 rocket) the nickle content was lowered in the casting of the blocks so this goes to show not all rocket motors are created equal. As for the 1966 Tri power Olds 442 W-30 with factory ram air air cleaner, this has to be one of the top dog one year only GM car's ever built in my opinion. Only thing better would be a 66 / 442 Convertible W-30 with factory A/C & Ram Air. ------ P/S, they said the W-30 cam was somewhat more aggressive , Well I am here to tell yeah, with its .295 Der it is quiet a bit more aggressive then a stock cam as when I installed one ( only the W-30 cam & HD valve train ) I cut 2 full seconds off my ET with the same Q jet carb. .
Aw for Christ sakes, finally a Powernation show about an Oldsmobile and what do they do? They shove a Chevy motor in it. Come on guys. Haven't you heard about Rocket Racing Engines? What a shame.

I haven’t had cable in a while but this intro just reminded me of mornings watching spike
Yep, same here!
no, it was TNN
Love watching Joe and Tommy.
Heck yeah, the Olds RM is back!!! I love this series.

I had a 67'Oldsmobile 442. 330 v8 & a 2 speed powerguilde. The motor and transmission was out of a 66 Oldsmobile Vista cruiser wagon. Quick and snappy
Worked on those cars new, a lot of gaps were off from the factory, nice job. They looked good enough for my Chevelle
"Electric caulk gun" LOL
First time I've heard that! It goes in the pile with 'electric glue gun', 'magic sparkly stick' and the rest...

Great vid, it's small details like that that really make a nice car even better!!!! 👍👍👍
Great video. That kind of spoiler may lift the back, instead of pushing it down. But it looks cool !
Love the wooden wheels. Wilma!

Plywood Wheels maybe worth more than the aluminum now!
Tommy my truck needs cab corners. If your not busy? Keep up the good work. And, let me know when your ready for my truck.

The most underrated tool in the Body Shop, the paint stick!! The best block I own is a paint stick,lol.
Good stuff Maynard!💯🔥👍
Why ditch olds power? Everyone has an ls...whats wrong with a 455?
Just another LS build, yawn. To do a proper olds build would apparently take to much effort.
@@IronChief No kidding. Or a turbo Olds 350 since these guys are so good at custom turbos. Or an Olds 400. Or 425.

Cool info on a very old car
You got me at "electric caulk gun."
Give it yer Best,,, Caulk the rest,,,
A lot of Body guys preferred the "Tough Girl" option on the Morgan Knocker Slide Hammer
Very nice work!
Thanks for the content!
Makes me wanna get out in the garage and tinker with the c10
Love the show now would you please finish the impala
442 s are my fave 60s muscle car

it baffles me that the pontiac GTO never took off in USA considering its spirit sister the Holden Monaro was sooo popular in Australia
Iv seen them clamp a piece of brass on one side of the metal you want to wield without it sticking to the brass. We had a lot of brass in the shop.
Good upload!!
I was half expecting Tommy to describe the gaps with the paddle in the door "like a pecker in a pail" 🤣 hahaha
My favorite are the G body 442s
Daum that voice is luscious af
PN. Please upload the 1949 ford build.
Holy smokes. I thought I saw Jesse James making the firewall? Guess it was a look alike
The Dirty 30
Did this Hurst Olds "tribute" ever get finished?
Looked like you were welding with the gas turned off?
🤣
Hood spring's? When they"ping"ping ping, that's it breaking the sound barrier with each little catch and release the spring does.
No.... No it isn't. That's possibly the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

"there was this one time long ago but don't want to talk about it. Nearly got drug to death" ;o)
Should have kept it all olds. Might as well call it a chevelle. What a waste
Thats the truth
Was a bummer to see them go LS.. OLDS BABY!!!
lets face it, it's going to be well made but will still have that shitbox ls engine
@@ben68442 careful, you're going to upset the soy latte drinking ls beta boys.
33 dislikes from Tesla employees.
Why did they ever stop having hood hinges like this car? I'm so sick of the hood prop and the piston ones wear out too fast...
It's an oldsmobile you couldn't come up with something better than a damn LS engine again
No wonder I'll stop watching these shows because I'm sick and tired of LS swaps and everything
I love the work you do, but. The hardware store bolts. No 😢
U ever had mountain oysters lmao, there was this 1 time but I don't want to talk about it lmao. For those who don't know its sheep or goats balls lol
Killed another nice old car with stupid LS swap
You mad the LS is the standard for performance?
@@bmstylee how is the ls the standard for performance of a 1969 Car. Pull your head out of your ass.

😁👍👌🖖✌😎
LAMBO Doors would have been a custom touch.
My favorite build was the 49 Ford with the Flame Thrower exhaust.
Wait: perfect by Detroit standards or rest of the world standards? ;)
Came for the whiney ls haters. Stayed for Tommy and Joe.
nothing wrong with ls engines as long as they stay in chevy bodies. I'm sure you're not contemplating an Olds engine transplant into you Shovelle
while you're drinking your soy latte
Doesn't have to be perfect, just has to look perfect. If you can't figure that out you'll never be successful at restoring these old cars.
Another LS where it shouldn't be
6.3 0-60 my ass.
None off those Brufa t justise cars are easy on the eye.
How can you rape an oldsmobile with an LSX!
The scarce believe subcellularly encourage because single hopefully force below a sturdy canadian. wicked, puzzling skill
Perfect Hood, Fender and Door Gaps ... are for decades the norm on all German & Japanese cars. Nothing special, sorry.

damn, it's big budget this time
