I was 40 years old 30 years ago. Time goes by fast. Enjoy every second of it. Happy birthday Emily!
Me too and I was 40 when I did my 57. I sand blasted the trunk and firewall. I still have the car and it still looks great. Garages do that for you!👍
Thanks Mike!! We’re sure grateful for everyday we have 🥰
Hey guys everything looks beautiful you were right once you put paint on it shows it shows every single imperfection!!! But that's why they make bondo. Great Job guys. God Bless see you on the next one.
Me too 72.
Nice to see you two together forever.
Thanks for family orientation and heck ya on the murder kittens.
The Kid is killing it. what a great aunt and uncle!
Teaching the kid well. Describing what it feels like and what she should expect helps take a lot of the fears out of learning something new.
To hell with deadlines. Record what you do and post that. Even if it's lounging in the pool, drinking a sweet tea. 😊 Oh! Is Super kid going to do a build for her first car???
Happy Birthday. It's just nice seeing a youtuber actually strip and paint a old car instead of they pull it out of the weeds or trees and get it to run and move then say Patina and shove it back in the trees to finish rotting. I know it's not a popular opinion. I'm a 70's kid were you couldn't even enter a car in a car show if it was rusty and your hot rod was completed when the paint dried. Sorry if I upset anyone, it's not an opinion unless you express it.
Even though the " Kid" is your niece, she acts like she is yours and Aaron's daughter. You all are great parents! As well as aunt and uncle! Refreshing to see the Kid is respectful, and the willingness to learn, and wants to do the work! And adds alot to you alls video. 😊
Y'all are such a cute family!! The family that sprays together stays together! lol I loved watching y'all!
Sure do appreciate it!!
Take it from an old fat man , I've got almost 30yrs on ya .
Enjoy life , and do what makes you happy . Time is fleeting , great video , loved that y'all are including the kid . She'll look back with fond memories of the experience with y'all .
That really is the best way to restore an old car. Keep the kids involved they need to know how to do this. That's what my dad did with us.. awesome job you guys on the right track..from Vancouver Canada.. GB 🙏
Emily you speak the truth. I have had my '56 Buick for 38 years. It still isn't "done" and never will be. It is just more done than it was 38 years ago. I have been under, in and around every part of that car. So much so it is now a member of the family.
Picking an honest and highly skilled body shop would probably take a lot more time and energy than jumping in and doing it yourself! If you follow your heart doors will open for you that are not available to others. It was also a very smart move to pay the price for a very clean and straight project car! You remain the Super Dynamic Duo + The Kid! Congrats!
Can attest - this is probably a year+ for most shops to be able to even get to!
You’re absolutely right!!!
So nice to see the younger generation being taught how to use their hands! The world needs more of that! Thanks.
We agree!!!!
teaching kids to do these things, is so important, my daughter starting working on cars with me before 10 yrs old. now she manages an auto body shop.
I have learned alot of tricks since i started building my 57, its nice to see you guys are going all out and rebuilding this piece of american history!
Look at the kid painting! So frickin cool! (BTW laughed put loud at 'bring back child labor.')
Everyone that watches your show appreciates watching you build this car. I wish I had the patience.
Listen, Arod and Em, nobody is rushing yall at all. Yall take your time when yall have what you need to upload, then do that. Don't let anyone know rush yall. I, for one, appreciate the fact that yall includes us in your lives.
We sure appreciate that support!!
Greetings from Malaysia… Suprised me that i can sit and watch this 1 hour video without noticing the time passed by. Great work by a great family. Eager to watch the next one…
I was born Dec 6 1957!! These cars hold a special place in my heart. Awesome job!!!! Great videos!!!!!!!! I was a USAF aircraft mechanic for 24 years. HAPPY B-DAY Emily!!!!!!!!!
The Shorts are like snacks before the meal, they hold the hunger at bay. Plus the Shorts were funny and a lot of fun.
Love this!!!!
Might be "Water under the bridge" now, but use a little Baking Soda & water 2 or 3 tablespoons to a gallon of water To Neutralize the remnants of the acid bath. Plain water Won't Neutralize the acid. It doesn't take much baking soda at all to neutralize it. Go back over it Fairly quickly with a damp towel or you'll have a chalky residue of the soda. Get it dried fast or rust will develop. Helps Promote the primer adhesion also. --- Retired from a 26 year Paint Lab stint. Just Sayin' lol -- Happy Belated Birthday
I wish I had the opportunity to do stuff like this with my boys. You guys are giving the kid a fantastic experience
I hope y’all don’t mind some more comments about how awesome I think you are. Once again, I just love watching you guys, and this video really encapsulates the way I feel as well about doing things you’re passionate about and doing things you want to do regardless of what people want from you. Definitely, don’t rush the project on our account, I think I can speak for basically everyone when I say, we would definitely rather that you take your time, live in the moment, and enjoy every part of what you’re doing. We can wait for videos. I know you will, but keep being the awesome people you are, God bless.
We sure love and appreciate you!!! The support means soooo much!
@@flyingsparksgarage Happy belated birthday as well! im only about a year older, and boy are you right, still kids and still learning and making mistakes!
Very happy you decided to strip it yourself, instead of dropping it somewhere. More videos, and more DIY!
By doing what you are doing you are learning, but you are also teaching everyone watching at the same time. I have tried to do some of the things that you have done with limited success, after watching you do the things that I have tried (wrapping your corvette) I retried wrapping mine and I came out much better and easier after learning how to do it watching you both. Thank you for all you do.
That is SUCH A GREAT COMMENT!!! That’s awesome! Thanks Robert 🙏🏼
What a joy watching you all (y’all) do your work. Especially nice to see “the Kid” working with you. Happy birthday Emily! You both are very beautiful and talented. I am 76 so I could be your grandfather. Keep up the good work! God bless and keep you all!
I was 49 years old Time goes by fast. Enjoy every second of it. Happy birthday Emily!
Nice job on the 57, I have a 55 for many years my 1st High School car.Just a note as you both reflected on your age. My beloved oldest brother who will turn 87 in a few days.He told me recently with a smile our casing gets old but we are the same young at heart & inside all our lives...Glenn
Your analogy regarding your plane is spot on, keep up the great work.
Don't rush! It's something you'll have for a long time and treasure, take your time and make it EXACTLY as it should be and to the very best of your ability.
I can’t believe how rust free that car was! Definitely good bones and deserves the full restoration! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😄
Im building my car one part at a time and slowly getting tools as i go. Im learning on my own to weld and do body work. More sense of pride I can say I did that on my own
When my sister passed away I inherited her 71 Malibu coupe. I was married at the time so suggested we find another one for her for "his & hers" Malibu's at car shows. The one we found was a roller that someone had put a battery on the trunk shelf that had spilled acid. There was a huge pile of white "stuff" from the acid reacting with the steel. The acid had seeped into all the little cracks in the detail parts welded behind the rear seat and no amount of pressure washing or rinsing with baking soda & water would stop it. The surface tension of the soda water kept it from penetrating into those cracks. A quick check of the design handbook found that ammonia (easily found and low surface tension) would do the trick and it did. Although it is also corrosive, it's not nearly as bad as the acid and 20 years later no problems at all. I've never had a problem with phosphoric acid as long as you get it off any surfaces you want to paint. (Mine did the yellowing too but was never an issue - I always gave it a scuff right before the epoxy and never had an adhesion problem. (Not making recommendations - just sharing my own experience from many years ago!). Looks awesome! Great job everyone! We used to say try to avoid "paralysis by analysis" LOL!
I’m just going to say, it’s nobody’s business how you get or how much you spend on your projects. I think you both are awesome and amazing people. I have been following you since LLW and I rather watch FSG than any other channel. Thank you for being honest and truthfull with all of us.
This is a great build! The kid is either growing like a weed or I've been watching y'all longer than I thought.
the 57 chevy was my first car,a 2dr htp 283 v8 with 3spd on the column.I was 16.I am 79 now and have owned 8 57s,obviously i love them.good work guys.
My mom drove a 57. My uncle had a 56. My sisters boyfriend had a 55. I come from a large family with lots of aunts and uncles cousins etc. The amount of classic cars I grew up with is amazing. The list is just crazy when I think about it. I rode in some NICE cars when I was a little kid.
I have a tip I'm not sure anyone else has said it. Take the air hose and put it over your shoulder it keeps it behind you so you don't get it in your work.... 👍😎
So much patience involved on restoring a vehicle. The end result will be priceless.
It just dosen't take very long for Kid to get it going..major smarts !!
I love that y'all are taking the time to enjoy this project and do it the way you want instead of hurrying to make the deadline. Keep up the great work!!
I'm really diggin' this (format) "in the garage, with Aaron, Emily and the kid"! Awesome job keep up the good work!
Great job guys. The kid did great. Love the way you get her involved ❤️👍💯
Much joy to you both… I love the cats looking at your work and owning the garage …..
What a great job. Love the patient you’ll had with the young girl. She will remember those moments. This car is going to be a treasure. Love the video. Oh Happy Birthday.
Thank you very much for doing this old school. It’s all I can ever do, so it’s good to see it. You both rock.
this format and your production value is great. thank you.
We appreciate that!
You guys seem happier now, and Aaron seems more involved with talking about what’s going on, the channel is evolved for the better, keep doing what you’re doing, and thanks for inspiring us all. ❤
We love hearing this, thank you so much for sharing and being here! 🥰
@@flyingsparksgarage oh my, I wasn’t expecting a reply from you. I just want you guys to know that I think you’re incredible, both of you. Thank you for making videos.
@@JeffClements-y3i We sure appreciate the support and kindness, we’ve been through a lot the past couple of years that has been both the hardest and biggest learning experiences ever, so when people see a difference in us, it means a helluva lot! 🙏🏼
I have to say, you guys have a beautiful and awesome family. I love the fact that you are teaching the Kid to work on cars. And that she is willing to learn alongside of the 2 of you. Keep up the good work. Hope to meet you guys one day. Love from East Texas
You all are awesome teaching that young lady how to work on cars❤
Happy Birthday! Happy to see "The Kid" still getting into these builds through the years. Another gear head is born!
You guys are killing it… That car looks amazing ….
Of course you picked a good one to start with. I can’t wait to see what color or colors you go with.
It’s good to see you guys making special memories for the kid too. That car will be special to her forever
Love this! And don’t be afraid to do this longer videos
What a labor of love! Had my eyeballs hooked on this project from the beginning. So glad you are doing a total strip restore-this beauty deserves the best, from the best, and you are bringing it!❤
Looks Marvelous. The kid is a good worker. A really fun video to watch. Can't hardly wait for the next one.
Just found yall like the show. Amazing aunt and uncle she unbelievable she don't whine or cry about getting dirty. and absolutely not afraid to jump in and do what needs to be done. Keep it up.
Glad you’re here!!!
Will be nice build when done! Are u protecting that bare metal with anything? Rock on kids!!!
I’m so envious of how much work you can get done when you’re not battling rust holes and rotting panels. The joy of living in the rust belt.
Who said it was a long video. It was great. I enjoyed every minute of it. Happy birthday, Emily. 37 and 40, I passed that many years ago. Yup, that primer brought out all the dimples in that old girl. To find all the bad spots. Shoot it with a mist of dark gray, or black primer before you sand it. It's surprising how many low spots will show up. Love your videos and how you involve the kid. Fantastic teaching her at that age. Stay safe. I hope to see you guys at a show or tour again. 👍👍👍👍👍
Congratulations Kid, you are now an apprentice body tech!
I was 40 18 years ago the funs just beginning also love the stuff with the kid 😊
Amazing thing is. . Just 39 years ago. I was your age Emily. Love your show and both of you. You keep me young
The reward of this project will last forever. You guys have an awesome channel. Not just inspirational but I’m getting up in the years , 60 this year and I love watching you guys doing what I grew up doing. If you can find a 3m accuspray gun to lay the paint down you won’t regret it.

So cool to see what homeschool can actually look like. We homeschooled our 3 kids and cherish the memories! I guarantee you that the kid's one day with you taught her a multiple of what she would have learned that day in any other school context. Great job!!
Are we enjoying it? It is a privilege to be able to watch bringing back to life of the 57. Looking good. Keep up the great work❤
Much respect for you guys for saving and restoring the old 57. A lot of history there 😊
from start to finish ,it takes time with a build such as this. so please take your time in this 57 rebuild .the people that you bought this car from , i know that the man will just love just how his 57 turned out as well as his family and friends , good luck!
We’re absolutely trying to make Dickie proud ♥️♥️♥️♥️
@flyingsparksgarage ... There is no doubt that there will tears on some cheeks 😮 happy tears!
'57s are precious and need to be pampered and severed 😊
Keep up the great job 👍
I have found that throwing the air hose over shoulder onto my back... it helps keeping it away surfaces at/below the waist 😊 believe me - I've learned this from a bunch of mistakes 😞
Happy belated birthday... I know your special dinner was awesome 🎉 🥳🎂
My Saydee pup enjoys watching for cats in your videos :-)... y'all got a lot done in this video B-)
This project is getting more exciting. To watch it progress from total bare metal to now primed and all steps yet to come - I am in awe of your efforts. Thank you. And - Happy Birthday, Emily!
I am so excited when I see the kid in your videos! That is what America needs. More families loving to do things together! Great video you guys! And Happy birthday!❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
I was paint and body.man for years.
The yellowing after you wipe down with water , is rust starting instantly. Just appears to take awhile to come out.
To keep from happening , all you do is use Lacquer thinner, to do Final wipe down .
Instead of water....
The water is the problem.
Try on a small section and you will see the difference when dry .
Happy Birthday...
I absolutely love watching this channel!! Keep learning and teaching the rest of us!! I can’t wait to see how this 57 turns out!
Glad you enjoy it!♥️♥️♥️
Evaporust is so handy. And they sell it in 55 gallon barrels. So handy for cleaning out engine blocks. I just hooked up a transfer pump to block adapters a buddy 3d printed, then plugged the transfer pump into a timer switch that flipped it on for 5 minutes every hour and 15 min every 6 hours.
When I scoped the block not a speck of rust.
When I paint my cars I sling the hose over my shoulder & around my neck it helps control the hose off the product . Nice work enjoying watching you all 3 . I getting ready to finish paint on my pickup but first need to repair exhaust manifold repair . Have a nice night see you in the next episode .
Painting is definitely the fun part after all the hard work, plus its practice for final paint. You guys are doing great!
I'm so excited for this series. You guys are going to have a new finished car when it's done that'll drive to Connecticut no problem. Thanks for letting the Kid paint. That is priceless.
I must admit I sped through your beautiful video. Because I’ve done this work so often and I do not want to say, oh you should have done this or that. I watch because it helps you guys out, but I like keeping my seeing things to myself. BUT SAYING THAT, cover all your tool boxes with plastic? My 2 cents. Many years ago I had purchased new boxes, left them open while I sprayed a candy apple Dodge Challenger……..To this day I walk in my garage and I see red……good memories but I cleaned red paint for a week off everything 🙄😁😂🤣love you guys. 👍
I have a friend who tried Evaporust for the first time on the bases of some oil filters that he got at a swap meet. They had some surface rust near the threads and the gasket surfaces. He soaked the bases over night and the rust is gone! He was amazed. I am going to invest some myself.
It’s truly amazing stuff!!
Cool video like the way you showed your niece how to clean and paint panels, life time memories, hot rodder in training. Happy birthday 🎉 . Old chevys never die just get a new paint job n a new heart .
Thanks for taking the time to teach a new generation about what we do. Thanks for sharing with us.
That's awesome that you're teaching your niece car crafting. Youve got it in primer now you can fix some of the body imperfections without worrying about rust. Happy birthday young lady! Looki g forward to more updates.
RUclips are the exact age of my children and I can say truly that I love your lifestyle and the way you treat one another and how you love the same things so happy birthday to both of you kids keep up the good work. Don’t let anything get to be too important in your livesto disrupt anything in your marriage, God bless
We all get to do Birthdays ? 1 Feb 47 so if you add both your ages, we are the same. Great entertaining and informative video. I have done a number of strip reprints and have used neutralizer so the chemical reaction stops and surface rust does not reappear. Happy Birthday Emily !!! This is the kind of rebuild we have been waiting to see. Take your time. Film it all....we want to see. Suggest all new rubber suspension parts while it is apart. This was fun. Thanks for letting us all tag along. Take care and stay safe.
You're dealing with an age-old problem we call "flash rust", what you get after a complete strip without neutralizing the surface after. No worries! You caught it and you're doing fine 👍
Thanks again for all the great content !

Let me give you a super tip: Evapo-Rust works amazingly fast if you constantly pump it onto the park. Think of it like a parts washer. Get one of those 17 gallon round tubs from tractor supply, a couple of fish tank pumps, necessary hoeses, and built a kind of spray booth with it. Drop your part in the tub, enough Evapo-Rust to keep the fish tank pumps submerged, and boom. You can selftap a couple of coat hangers on the side of the tub to act as holders for the spray hose. 15 to 30 minutes, the part will look brand new.
Happy B-day Emily 🎂! I'm 69 years old and if theres one thing that life has taught me is Nothing Is Free.🤔🚜 You go guys! What ratio do you have in Roxy's differential and did you change it after getting back from Drag Week a couple of years ago?
"That's what she's got, that's what she's getten" Great quote my friend!
Always look forward to your latest videos.
This is neat you are showing start to finish.
Got a look forward to after paint. That will be a blast.
Glad I saw Emily on a peak commercial. Got to see Aaron and the sparks garage. Better than regular tv shows!
So much amazing progress. You guys have such great motivation. I'm sure there are days where scraping that paint got really old but you kept going and it looks great. Can't wait to see it in final color. Keep on wrenchin'
As someone who is deep in the car hobby but also works in respiratory health, I just want to say thanks for using proper PPE while doing this type of work. So many other RUclipsrs paint, grind, and use all sorts of nasty chemicals without wearing a respirator or even a dust mask. They're all going to develop COPD, and that's one of the least bad things that can happen.
Thank you for the accolades!!
Love the kittens strolling thru the garage when you're filming like they own the place.
Can watch 57 videos all day long as i just love them. Took me 4 years to do mine and not not having a great deal of money was offset by my free labour. (Lots and lots of it) There are a lot of ways to make things easier but sometimes the only way to be sure is the one that takes the longest. My friends car was thrashed by a sand blaster and it cost him dearly. At the end you will have a beautiful 57 and you will have pride every time you lot at it as you guys did it did it yourselves
I personally love the longer videos ❤
So glad!!
It's really neat to see ya all doing it the right way, lots of work in it in the end you will have something you will be proud of and show us all what's involved
Lotta work done there. Lookin good! Nice to see you working together as a family.
Happy birthday 🎉. I love watching you teach and share your life with “The Kid”, she is such a great human.
Great Job! The Car is looking Great! It’s really cool to see the Whole Family working on it! That’s the stuff she’ll remember forever! It’s really cool to see the little one taking interest!
Happy belated birthday! I love how you guys teach and work with your niece. I have three grown children and they would not have become the fine adults they are today without the extra guidance of their Aunts and Uncles. You guys are helping to shape a wonderful young woman and should be proud.
Glad y'all decided to paint it. Its such a great body to start with. Looks really clean and strait. Nice!
You two, or should I say three including the kid, are doing an amazing job. My brother did body work and painting in Tulsa, Oklahoma for 43 years and was one of the best. He restored Mustangs and 55,56 and 57 T Birds For people in car clubs in his spare time. He would have been proud of what you all are doing. Especially with your step by step of your daily posts. Congratulations on a job well done.
