Huge Upgrades for the Crusher Impala! Will It Break? | Roadkill Garage | MotorTrend

- Опубликовано: 10 июл 2022
- Freiburger and Dulcich give some much-needed love to the '69 Chevy known as the Crusher Impala by way of a new 9-inch rear and a less squatty suspension overhaul. The guys also fix a major throttle issue that finally unlocks full use of the supercharged 498ci big block before hitting the road for monster burnouts.

What a car, glad you're still wrenching on it! Thanks for putting some of this on RUclips so we can enjoy it in Aus!
*Was subscribed until Aus got kicked from the platform. Really miss these shows!* 😥
I’m still holding out hope that OG Roadkill will come over to Australia for the rematch 😔🙏🏽
@@Steven_McCrae yes the crusher impala should go to summernats
This why I love you guys for keeping all of your content on RUclips, cheers guys from Canada
@@williamharford1136 yes also it should belong to Marty and moog 100% ownership I'm not sure how it all worked out I'm guessing motor trend footed the bill for everything and just said they could have it knowing they wouldn't try and ship it home but they should now
Man I would love to watch Motor Trend again
Me too 😟
… RUclipsTV……
Not only did these a..holes kicked us outside viewers, additional to that they screwed up project x and transfered it into an electric lawnmower
Amazon does it in the UK.
Me too ☹️
Dulcich is one of the coolest car dudes on the planet. He totally relates to us ordinary guys.
Met him few days ago. Was a great guy
All your cars are so very southwest rust free clean!
This impala looks ratty to so many people but dang is it nice underneath! Saw this car in person at Pontiac Michigan while on display, along with other projects and they are all so freaking rust free clean!
The rolling burnouts are sick!! Love this build!!! It’s awesome
Steve makes all his fixes look so easy.
Dulcich fixes the door in about 5 seconds....brilliant!
Very nice video, Men....Thank you so much for a very down to earth approach to drag racing. Personally, I am an old retired NHRA drag racer with most of my experience with a 426 HEMI Torqueflite and a 427 / 425 Turbo 400 Biscayne. I am talking 1969-1972. Nothing but fun. You brought back some terrific memories and I thank you again !!!!!
I love how they put the rad music behind Dulcic’s dorkiest suit up ever. Lmaoooo
Looks like Dulcich got some new pullouts.👍🏽👍🏽
You mean his teeth? cause they are blinding me ffs.
@@JoeRocket-sf6qs Yeah
LOL it was the first thing I noticed!
@@Eidrian111 Yeah, he got ‘em in there.
That gravel to street burnout was a great test 👌
Those slot mags are some of the sexiest wheels ever made, the slot mags make any car or truck look great. They really are a fit all wheel
It’s cool that you’re loading some of these older episodes up to RUclips now.
Many moons ago, (1980) my neighbor got his first car 69 Caprice triple black 427 buckets/console GM exec car. He brought it over for a tune up, so I give it a performance tune and out to Woodward ave. for a real test. I start with the well known upgrade of air filter lid flip,turned out to be a very strong running car. I gave a few others a good spanking to think about. I tried everything to buy the car from him,he drove it away to college and never saw it again.
Great content!All the roadkill garage cars are awesome.Nice to see the crusher Impala getting some upgrades.
That boat is my FAVORITE build 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
I leally like watching the builds get new upgrades. Keep up the great content!
Oh wow the Impala is back
I’ve had the battery do the same thing on a 74 Nova in 1984 after hitting a speed bump leaving high school. Also acid is acid not a caustic. Caustic will neutralize acid.
Please let Steve drive ...he will not break things ! AND HE can fix ANYTHING !
If you're running anything other than solid engine mounts that BBC is just twisting the snot out of the stock column shifter linkage. And that's why you're having shift issues. And yes a floor mount shifter will correct the issue plus it's more accurate and fun to bang gears with one and it looks Kool!!!!! But you should still run solids!........ Love the Crusher Imp! Cheers.
I had a crusher 69 impala i took out the 327 and put a corvette 427 in her. WOW what a difference… good fun show. Need more of you two guys.
…… then you woke up?
my favorite roadkill car since it first showed up
You are crazy as always, love Roadkill Garage.
David…you are definitely gifted at doing the best burnouts the world has ever seen.
Honestly the crusher impala is my favorite car in the fleet, it needs more attention.
best car on roadkill in my opinion glad to see it back
I just love the rat rods, they make the greatest/coolest drag cars of all. Even when the 4-door is used for a rat rod dragger they look so bad to the bone. Save the pretty shiny 2-doors for the trailers and car shows.
My grandfather had a 4 door. I miss that car almost as much as I miss him. It was a special car to him cuz it was the first new car he ever owned and bought with cash.
Shows how badass those valve covers are!!
That is just SICK! Rolling Burnouts: 10/10
Thanks and respects from Canada
Great episode, appreciate it!
Steve, your door handle fix might be my favorite Roadkill deal!
So cool.
So that's what those enormous wrenches are for....door handle adjustment tools! Who knew?
If you guys ever need a carb adjustment sledgehammer, mine might still be laying around here somewhere.....
Loved it! Really loved it. Watched it with my dad
I was relieved when David said that the supplier installed an Eaton Truetrac diff. instead of a Limp-Slip diff. or worse yet, a Locker gear set. The car is going to be quick & more controllable, i.e., more fun. Thanks for the great video guys.
a truetrac is a limited slip...
The rolling burn out was awesome.
Nobody does it as well as you two..love it!
That is true
Love the drone shot burn out
Wow you guys at Motorweek know how to have fun.
I love these old school style of videos
cant wait to see it all sorted out.
I’m a Mopar guy but I really appreciate this thing. It’s tough as
This car does the absolute most epic burnouts!!!! Long live the crusher impala!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great stuff love watching you guys
12:08 Very nice photography/drone work and an equally awesome burnout. This car is my new hero.
If that's a TH-400 transmission in that (I'm sure it is) I would pull out the "vacuum modulator" valve, and clean it up. Either that or your "governor valve" is sticking. Either one of those will prevent a TH-400 from shifting.
Here in CA we have Govenor stuck on idiot.😂
Awesome burnout before they got to the track love it need more lol
Nice to see both tires on fire. Not that the one legged one mile peel wasn't epic in its own right
Had a few 2 door hardtop from GM , LOVED THEM ALL , GREAT ROAD CRUISERS
Love the crusher Impala!!!!
Great show, I love that car.
The Dulcich rules 🤙🏼
I’ve definitely launched a battery into my headers before. It took out the plastic oil pressure line too and made a nice smokey mess.
I lost one into a fan blade once, the battery tray was so rusty it came right off it’s mounts!
The angle of the dangle is directly proportionate to the heat of the meat.... What I was thinking about your door handle issue... GREAT VIDEO!
Bring back MotorTrend outside the U.S!
Love the crusher Impala. Can't blame the battery for that one though 😉
One of my favorite cars ever.
Absolutely LOVE this car!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Host Team
11:20s at 119 is better than I thought y'all would throw down on this episode. That's running pretty strong. I imagine the car weighs 4100 with driver?
Years ago we jumped an old 67 Ford pickup with no bed over railroad tracks and tossed the battery in the fan.
It looked like manatee's in Florida being cut up by a boat prop.
Crusher camero to Oz for summer nats would be an interesting idea...
Hey freiberger I liked you at pickup van and 4wd magazine. I like how you write even the back page of hotrod
Woot! Now it’s a Two-Tire Fryer!
Would have been nice if you made it that good for mighty car modes
amazing ride !!
It'd be real cool if yall still posted new episodes here after they aired like you used to
Love you guys. The Company, not so much. Gday from Oz.
Love you Knuckleheads!
i will be watching for it,,,,the next video!!
Awesome 👍😎.
Is Discovery finally realizing that Roadkill needs to come back to RUclips??
Love this show
Out of all the cars you guy have done the crusher impala is my number 1 and the vanishing paint was the second. But the vice grip guy will do good things for that car.
excellent video guys !!
so David,
when you no longer want this car
I'll be interested in purchasing it from you.
thanks
It's a two door! You' are already 150 points ahead of the game!
Chevelle 396. Cruising down the road, I hit the gas. 3 seconds later, explosion and smoke but the engine ran fine.
The factory battery hold down let the battery tip over. the positive post laid on the valve cover and burned a hole and the spark ignited the oil fumes. Both valve cover gaskets blew out and the oil ran over the exhaust manifolds.
Now I always use a safety strap.
Sweet pala boys
my first way of welding was gas and rod, then stick, tig then mig, thats the order my grandfather showed me 40 years ago. been welding ever since. i knew by 12 working with metal and welding was going to be my hobby, because i love it. oh, i love engines too, they are art pieces.
I started with coat hanger
@@ThePeavey23 iv used them.. lol
A few of my friends in h.s. had impalas that were pretty good considering the beefynous.
I had a 70 Impala (same basic body) My battery did the exact same thing. Jumped into the alternator and acid went everywhere. Took the coating off my Holley carb and stained the aluminum intake. I can completely relate……
I was waiting for the Impala it to come back
My favorite car on the show
Dulcich, Freiburger,
Do you guys have a recommend for gear oil and transmission fluid for a 2003 Ford F-150 4x4 with 4.2L V-6?
Does it really take automatic transmission fluid?
I had a 66 caprice with a 396 and a 4spd, the car wasn't fast but it was fun!!!
This car is totally awesome
Get that thing a floor shifter asap! Rolling burnouts for life.
you guys ROCK hahaha
It's nice to be able to watch on here. I had to cancel Motortrend on demand because videos constantly had connection errors, It was unwatchable.
If I ever decide I wanna supercharge my truck, should I keep the tbi? Or should I go carbs?
-1995 Chevy k1500
I like the zip tie tip. I was wondering if running 2 or 3 zip ties around the axel tube in between it and the brake line might prevent a future leak from the brake line rubbing on the axel tube. Just thinking. But then again, the next time we see this car it will be totally taken apart again. 😆
I love this channel.
I'd put a light weight front k member, flaming river manual rack in it and a magnum 6spd! I love the crusher impala and the crusher camaro!
It's flying brother... what was the 60 foot time...it looked like it picked up the left front wheel
I see a battery relocation kit with a dry cell battery in the future 🤔....
The crusher impala its the Best car from roadkill sounds so badass with the blown 498ci big Block chevy i hope a drag race vs the roadkill og muscle truck vs crusher cámaro and hope bring back the f bomb camaro to roadkill
gotta say that side of the toad dirt to pavement departure was how its done lol
11:40 was waiting for Dulcich to say fix the lighter 😂
Darned if that clip didnt look like a blues brothers scene.
Would your torque converter be the wrong one from moti car mods episode against crusher impala I believe if I'm right you put the wrong rating torque converter in it unless you replace it already
I liked you two on this show
that was fun
