Much as I like Knight Rider, I would like to see it just restored to original. Love the sound of that car. My feeling is the best way to honor her memory is to make look like it did when when she had it.
Yes the original red color
I completely like to see that a family like yours can work together and agree and disagree on certain things or issues that you come across in the line of work that you do.
they can also edit !!
The 3rd gen Camaro and firebird had an issue on the fuel pumps, there was a little rubber hose that would disintegrate over time. I bet that hose is bad. The tanks are a nightmare to pull so a lot of people cut access holes in the floor hump in the rear. That's how I did mine but I sealed it up good and you couldn't tell. I did one once where I dropped the tank and it was an 8-10 hour job. Absolute nightmare. Also, from what I can see that's the early TBI unit and not a Carburetor. And that sound sounds like the two injectors clacking. That's just from what I can see. I could be wrong, I definitely don't know everything but I've been a Camaro guy since I was born in 90 and had my 80 Z28 since 94. Keep spreading the word! Praise be to God!
Man, the 80s was the best having fun 😊
Great channel,Praise Jesus,really enjoyed your show guys and at the end when you said you will close in prayer you really got my ATTENTION! I am blessed I found this channel, Jesus bless all of you,love you in Christ!
Amen
I hit the subscribe button right away! May God bless all of you!
Jesus saves
Satan steals!
DEVIL'S POSSE WIN!
I may be partial, but It's always nice to see a Firebird get revived, especially one with a good story attached!
Those Firebird commercials from the 1980's are awesome!!! Takes me back to my childhood years. "We build excitement, Pontiac!". I so remember those commercials! When they went to fuel injection, the Trans Am GTA and Formula 350 were introduced. Those were some of the coolest cars on the road back then, especially if they had the manual transmission.
This car was my apart of my childhood memory. I wish I had a chance just to drive one.
Mad props for your KITT knowledge. You get a like and subscription. Definitely make a Kitt replica. It's already auto
Derek would be proud for all the vice grip usage 🤣
Very true. As u know you can fully take apart a car with a pair of vice grips & a Tanya Harding.
After the first hour, Derek would be on his way home in that car 🤣
I was 22 year old when this car came out 😲👏🏿
I love this episode because I also have a 1986 trans am, mine had the 350 with the tuned port fuel injection... I bought it in 1992 and I still have it to this very day... She needs a little TLC but it's all there and in decent shape for the year... Keep up the good work guys, love the channel
Me Too. I Got a Black Trans-am 1986 but some how its not fuel injection like the other 2.8L V6 Firebirds i own in the pass to my big surprise. its got a 305 V8 2 Barels Carb that acording to the gm dealer runing the vin number is original. great video thanks you. oh any one else notice the weels are camaro weels ? not firebird or trans am
It Is So Good Seeing You Both Here, God Bless You Both.. ☺️
I love that shirt I probably wouldn't be able to get it because I lived on a fixed income SSI disability I can't afford a lot of stuff
SSI disability...I'm on it too...
You understand where I'm coming from
@@wcasby0204 as Lamchop from "Lamchop's world" says, "Ohhhh yeahhhh!!!!".
And everyone thinks you’re living so large on there money but in reality most people can’t afford to pay there utilities let alone rent on disability idk what it pays in your state but it’s about 435 here something like that ssi is 700
@@yungBitta291 living large on their money??? We earned this money, it was deducted from our earned paycheck. And it's not even enough to pay rent and utilities. Pitiful. 40 years working at the same company, and this is what I have to live on....
I like the live stream because it shows the time and patience to work on old car. Had '84 Z28 and changed starter and also clutches.
I own a 1986 Firebird, there's no room for a true dual exhaust system with the torque arm in the tunnel. I have Hedman "Shorty" Headers, ceramic coated, with a Y pipe, test tube in lieu of the cat and single 3" stainless to a single inlet dual outlet 40 series Flowmaster. I dumped the 305 and installed a 30 over 350, 2 bolt main 10.5 to 1 forged pistons, 64 cc heads, Crane cam, Harlan Sharp Billet Roller Rocker arms. Mine is a T-Top with 5 speed, 3;73 Richmond gears. I bought mine in 87. I replaced my starter with a Power master Mini Torque due to the limited installation room, plus it handles higher compression. Good luck (P.S. I'm still fighting with my headlamp motor relays) The viewer who said the shocks were missing is probably accustomed to seeing a shock mounted in middle the lower control arm, these cars have front struts not shocks.
They sure don't make cars like they use to, back 25 years ago i remember having 5 firebirds just like this one in my fathers junkyard, paid 500 dollars for 1 . now they are worth 10 x as much restored. beautiful cars.
Enjoying your live as well as your produced/edited content. Yup, i watched this live from start to finish. With the lives it's like I'm there hanging out with y'all. Oh, and i very much enjoyed the VW Bug build. Y'all blew it off the charts with that build. Any hoot, great job, great video and keep em coming. Cause we sure do enjoy them
Up the hill from my house, when I was young 6 or 7 yrs. 1957, my friends Grandfather owned a Pontiac dealership. They were the first new cars for me, friends Mom drove a new Pontiac every yr. she was the receptionist, sat just inside front door of showroom. Yeah they were my favs. not happy when GM got rid of them. Firebird Formula was my fav. only ended up owning two Sunfires. Can't wait to see this one run again.
i love the commercials. as an 80's child the nostalgia is overwhelming. i wish i would have caught this on live stream for interactive coversation.
Great channel And awesome to see a family work together. Me and my dad worked together for years till he passed. Yall help bring back many great memories. Keep up the great work.
If it has a tilt steering wheel, check the wiring harness at the bend of the column.
Love the Camaro rims. LOL! I had a 76, 87, 97 Camaro and by gum, those are Camaro rims. Going to do a Night Rider? Cool!
Now you're what you call a good-hearted person giving back to somebody who gave you especially when they're in need and you know that that whatever you're doing for means a lot to him you're freaking awesome you and your dad keep up the good work God bless you have a blessed day
Loved the Herbie build, not only did it look great, it also sounded awesome. Never heard a bug sound so deep. Really cool with flashbacks to the original stuff car and the funny scenes recreated. Great job!! Sharing your page with my Dad who taught me how to drive in a 71 VW van and drove bugs for many years afterwards. Can't wait to see how the Firebird turns out.
As a rule of thumb (at least on GM) there should be 1/8" clearance between the flexplate/flywheel teeth and the shaft the starter gear rides on. DORIS!

Great video thank you! Also the prayer at the end caught me by surprise, it was beautiful ❤️
I was 16 and 17 years old when the commercials come out
And owned a Pontiac Bonneville 92
Christian does some amazing camera 🎥 work… I love some of the Slo-Mo work she does… Very professional camera skills and fluid moves I have to say. Keep up the great work!!!
To call a woman "my dear" is demeaning. It would like saying, "You're a good little boy" when you're a male over the age when you want to be called, "little boy".

There’s no need to bother replying to a compliment that wasn’t even directed to you. This site is for Adults 18 and over, not for younger boys like yourself. Keep your comments to yourself!
We are proud of you guys. Youre amazing.
I just did a starter replacement in a 94 GMC Sonoma, 2.2 litre. The hardest replacement I've ever done. There's a metal plate right behind the starter!
Amen on the prayer it’s nice to see people praying please keep that up
Kelly from Connecticut.
Clicking noise on the carburetors a mixture control solenoid perfectly normal
Thank you for your excellent content, God bless y’all

@@polenick4805 what are you saying 😊
@@polenick4805 are you joking
For some reason I couldn't get this show anymore I was sad love watching y'all. Y'all just popped back up and I happy now.
Maybe "so long, Doris" is today's equivalent of, "bye Felicia..." 😂
I couldn't care less to have a perfect K.I.T.T replica. To me would be a dream just to own a perfect exemplar of a regular F-Body Firebird Trans Am. Obviously IMHO and with all due respect 🙏
If you have the new starter in that means the starter is fine because if you hear clicking that must be the carburetor acting up and the spark plugs are gone
It would be nice to get put back to it's original color even though I understand why they decided to go with the black with it. Knight Rider being one of the most popular shows of the times back then. One movie and one show later and Pontiac had a top seller. I always liked the red one.
My first boyfriend had a red TA. I get nostalgic for my youth every time I see one.
Oh that one joke about the yard stick. They don't make em any longer had me laughing lol🤣🤣
"There's that other piece...ah...dirt dobber." Classic Texas!
A talking kit car would be cool. There is a guy makes the replica models of the KITT and it talks.
Missed you guys keep on the Sunny Side
Tilt the wheel down and it will let the switch work I have one that does that
God bless you all
Need a tool kart so you don't have to go back and forth to the tool box...
i like watching you guys getting cars back to life after 50 years.
First car was 87 firebird. Was my older sisters. Man i enjoyed that thing. T tops. When i packed 4 friends in it hardly got out of its own way lol but good times, good times.
Love you guys reminds me of my two sons and myself keep the faith and good work up
Derek’s favorite tool vise grips lol
Doris in the ad was Doris Briscoe. See was a news anchor on TV that became part of the PVN( pontiac video network). She was a big part of the training videos for dealers and salespeople at pontiac.
Lance, you did good job work on this precious Pontiac from your pastor. I hope that you could restore that car to its former glory and give that car back to your pastor/friend so he can keep it in memories of his mother and keep in his family for generation to come! I love to watch y'all work on cars. I'm not that far from y'all. I know y'all live just southeast of Paris, Texas. I'm about 30-45 miles west of Paris, Texas (Sherman, Texas on US Hwy 82). My parents and I used to live in Cooper, Texas just south of Paris and west of y'all!
"ain't got much but it's got us". 🤣 That's right, and I'd be pretty happy to have you guys as neighbors if I was in a small town. Well done
Bought my first vehicle in 86. A 1968 f100. How I'd love to have it still. Love your show thank you.
I like those 1980's Firebird ads, too! Pontiac really did build excitement!😁🔧🛠️
Hi Christian & Guys U R Amazing Finding Old Cars & Getting Them Going Again I Would Like To Find Old Cars Too. From Ian Australia.
I'm injoying watching stuff like this you guys doing good job with that firebird god bless you all from the 🇬🇧 UK
As a carpenter I attempted to replace the starter on my Sanoma, it felt out right in my hands and it took me six hours to get the new one in, but it worked
While not exactly the same thing, in January of 1998 I spent an entire Sunday replacing the alternator on my '86 Fiero GT. I had to disassemble the passenger side suspension (removed the wheel and tire first) just to wiggle that bad alternator out of there. Then there was a semi-mad rush to get to Pep Boys so they could zip-off the pulley with their air gun six minutes before they closed at 6 PM. Thank goodness for my brother for being available on short notice to drive me and the alternator the five miles to Pep Boys. I did this twenty-three years ago on a bitter cold Sunday in my unheated garage. What a character builder. 😉
My favorite car ever
Hey guys I just wanted to say I have a 1978 Lincoln continental that me and my grandson are getting ready to start working on again it drove really good before I parked it
I was a Junior in high school when you were born. I remember the 80s big hair and spandex and the Rubics cube. I graduated in 1987 when you were a 1 year old
I was confident that you all could make the starter work!!!!
I watch this show all the time and I like how you will do a good family team keep up the good work from Harry Dean homestead Florida
Just started watching tonight. Love that you include Christ in your comments. Keep sharing. It helps to know others are out there.
I like how you guys have som much knowledge on fixing old rides. And take pride on them . Love this Chanel ..
Loved that little cat coming up at the end saying I smell smoke everyone out and I'll take car of it. Lol.
Hi brother a religious Carlos Smith clear all about I recently lost my daddy on May 22nd 2021 he was 81 years old he had a lung cancer and COPD but you just keep the Smith family y'all in your prayers
Even though these "live" video's aired a while ago. I am watching them now. Still fun to watch and i discovered this channel by VGG.
MY DAD TRIED TO HELP ME WORK ON CARS I REALLY LOVE THIS
I have an 86 black Firebird. It runs great and actually is my daily driver! Needs cosmetic work, like a paint job, new seats, carpet, dashboard, etc., but not bad considering how old it is. I get questions, comments and compliments on it all the time, because you rarely see them anywhere.
Those old commercials make me LOL
This is giving me some serious flash backs! My first car was an 86 Firebird. Mine, unfortunately, had the 2.8L V6 but was otherwise the same car. The same red originally, then some copper red color when I bought it in 1991 just before I graduated high school. Then I painted it.....can you guess what color? Yep, black! I at least had the formula firebird wheels on mine! Man, I wish I still had that ole girl! Thanks for sharing this one!
Love you're guys content I've been watching your videos all day today keep up the good work
I stumbled on your WEB Site by accident today. We worked together on fixing up old cars. I still have a '65 GTO that I bought new - it was the Tri-power version with 4 speed and Posi-traction. “Somehow,” the engine blew up and I put a highly modified Chevy 427 into it, originally in a Corvette. My son got a ’65 GTO Wanna-Be (LeMons) - he built a Chevy 454 for it. We planned to run them at the local tracks when not on the streets. You guys work so well together it reminds me so much of times gone by. Several years ago, my son got hit while on his motorcycle by a drunk driver. It took him seven years to die, but eventually he did - from injuries and meds from the accident. You guys have a GREAT program - I may stop by and visit you some in Bagota. I have been there several times participating with the Patriot Guard Riders in funeral services of Veterans. God Bless You All!
The way the key switch is. I'd say the car started with the starter still engaged ,and broke the nose end.
The Cat certainly ended up with the cream in the ending of video
I absolutely love the original color red or burgundy
Musty 1 would love to have that beetle..
It would be so awesome to
Build a knight Rider kit car.
As always great job you three
God bless you all.
Love that you are doing all these vehicles to try to keep them out of the scrap yard to be destroyed that you you so much. Sending from Goshen Indiana . Still would love to get a 66 Chevy Impala my first car bought myself when I was 16 and I am 67 now
Love your channel, work, and demonstration of faith, God bless!
I like watching your videos my grandfather used to buy cars he takes moter out look at it put it back in but he passed away God bless my grandfather i miss him a watching your video you just like my grandfather rebuilt moters in cars i like when you all say God bless 🙏🙏 my name is Richard the blade is my cat name ❤❤ i like be your all friends thanks God is with you all you all seem like nice people I'm nice
You guys are awesome people, thanks from Massachusetts
Been wanting to say this for some days now. when screwin around with a stuck motor heat deisel to near boiling, and have a good water tank you can keep water boiling. hok into bottom and top water outlets on block, no thermostat, and circulate hot water through the block as you add hot deisel into cylinders. in half hour we had a totaly stuck catapillar motor free and i also done a few v blocks since, a old fellow who was amazing old equipement taught me that trick when i was in my teens, just say i prob older than Lance's father now. I unseized a borg warner 4 speed with boiling deisel and some heat from a propane tourch. just some little tech tips to toss out to ya all into this sorta stuff.
Thanks for all the Hard Work; Hope/Pray for your future success.Sometimes your the Pigeon; sometimes your the statue!
I bought an 84 used ,305 TBI ,found out it was a Police Interceptor from Ohio, also had a 2 speed rear end with a switch on the dash. This thing was badass, 5.0 Mustangs didnt have a chance, Corvettes too! had 200mph Goodyear tires and high performance suspension. Never have seen another one like it
I bought an 86 Firebird last December for $6500. It was in great condition when I got it to, just had to replace the seatbelts and it was missing a headliner. It’s never given me any problems so far other than what you’d expect from an old car.
I think the kitten was trying to say "hey! I'm the one that suppose to say the closing prayer".😁
It was thoroughly amazed me that you put gas in the tank and then weren’t going to try and start it
The “Doris” is Doris Biscoe, the ‘anchor woman’ for the Pontiac Video Network. PVN was part of the yearly training for dealers and salespeople, distributed in the fall to train staff on the new products.
Sister does an awesome job thank you. She is awesome
Doing a live is more work for you guys but thank you guys
Speaking of the oil, you gotta taste it like Derek does.
I think some bad ass flames and the iconic firebird mix graphics put on it
Jolly good show, old chap, carry on that Firebird.......................
And its twice as exciting to install the starter too! Lol!
God bless y'all. Good solid hard work. .plus I can't get the knight Rider theme out of my head. Ha!
I live in abilene texas and my dad loves the 86 87 88 pontiac transam and I would love to give him that cause it is his dream car
I had a 1987 firebird just like this one! Loved it it was teal when I got it we later repainted it candy apple red.
The lives are great it shows all the action ,I hate the shows that don't show what's going on
had one of these in the 90s, great car
Great job y'all
Hey bro my name is Tam.am in Jamaica.love your channel. Like that one with the VW beetle. Very sentimental.
That job on the mercades was amazing. I really enjoyed it!
