1939 Lincoln Zephyr - Part 6: Firing Up the V-12

Creating brackets for the kick down cable and steering column, creating an oil dipstick, wiring up the car and installing the fuel rail and fuel lines. Then, firing up and tuning the V-12 engine with some help from Juanco. Finally, putting the hood back on and connecting the linkages for the steering to get the Zephyr ready for a test drive.

I watch a lot of car stuff. Just found this channel and I binged all the '39 after seeing this one. What an amazing car (and all of them in the shop are too cool) I love the truly real process too! I'm subbed.

Bello a true mechanic, even something as odd as a V12
mechanics never stop learning things change
Old things come along
He obviously is as interested as he was when he started
Not a lot of people out there like that
There’s a man that loves what he does

CherryBombs Bello????? Broooo!!!! That work of art deserves WAAAAAY better than CherryBombs brother. That's like using a O'Reilly's brand shifter knob on a full frame-off, rotisserie, 6 figure custom build.

[@danwoodliff7287]

And what muffler would they use in the60's??

[@theariesexperiment4642]

@@danwoodliff7287 Oh I dont know Dan. Back in those days??? Well,....let's see,...you had Walker, Smithy,...or even Thrush was around in the mid to late 60s. And you even got a cool sticker for you ride. I've even heard of guys fabricating there own mufflers. I was simply saying I'd throw some Flowmasters or dome really nice Borla mufflers on car that is as beautiful and nice as that on is. I just can't stand the sound of a "Cherry Bomb". Hope you weren't butt-hurt by my assessment Dan. I apologize if that's the case sir.
