Richard you and Christina do really great work on these old cars and trucks please keep up the great work
Thanks Doug❤
@@christinarust6957 your very welcome please have a great day now
One of my new favorite youtube couples and channels 🙏
Thank you❤ Appreciate you watching
I never thought it was JUNK. My wife on the other hand would think I’d lost my mind if I ever thought about purchasing a vehicle that looked like that. This vintage beauty needs to be brought back to its former glory. I know Richard said he wasn’t a fan of the continental kit but that just adds to its mystique. Love the new shop, next investment is a lift.👍👍🇨🇦
You know what's funny? No matter the condition of a car, I've never thought Richard was crazy😅 If anything I push him to buy crazy vehicles! Really appreciate you watching❤
Your right those Chevy straight 6’s are great engines. A friend lost his shop to a fire over the summer. He had a 1935 Dodge he was working on. And even though it went through a fire he is going to continue with the project. Name of his Channel is Half Ass Customs. If you want to check him out. Richard you and Christina are one of my favorite people. If you decide to rebuild. It can be done for sure. You guys are the best. The 1951- 1954 Chevy straight 6’s were great. I think you can do a little body work and create an interior. And a new wiring harness and Radiator. You got a Car. Never would attempt to restore. Your haunted 1949 has bad Mojo. This car wants to live again. Love the new shop. Anything makes your wrenching easier. I’m excited as well. Thank you Richard and Christina ❤️💯👍
I’m excited to see more videos on this project. I’m glad you were able to purchase the car.
Thanks Brandon. Appreciate you watching 😊
It’s good to know that you are doing great. I know the feeling as far as health. I don’t know about you but I thank the Lord everyday for letting me live and see another beautiful day.overall you guys are blessed keep up the great work.
I'm with you on that one also, I thank God for every day of life myself.
Please give it a good budget restoration and please keep the continental kit, thats what sets that car apart from other 51s and is classy looking.
Great vid and shop tour , hope you get a post lift install to save your back , thanks for sharing 👍💨💨
So do I! I want a lift more than Richard does 😅 Appreciate you watching ❤
Well Richard and Christina it's time to poop 0r leave the restroom, ❤LoveJim J&R mobile service and God Bless Y'all and your critters and congratulations on your new home and shop
love watching you two work together
❤❤
That small U Bolt you pitched in the trunk……is the steering column hold up bolt that goes under the dash…. Right between the Gauges!!
Happy for y’all about the new shop!! Nice and spacious!!!
I'm so thankful to see the 51 Chevy where it belongs please make a driver out of the Chevy it's to nice to be parted out,😊 God restored My life Richard and Christina and God has bless you with the parts and ability to restore the Chevy My heart just leaped with Joy to see it again, I have two,71,c
Congratulations on your new shop......I love you Christina.💐
save her engine mates and love the new Workshop . im sure the Home too is Heaven. GOD BLESS
Hey Richard and Christina nice. New shop by the way and Richard you and Christina have did a great job of finding these nice old cars and getting them running
"Yeah.. you really are making a mess on the floor". 😂 Keep making messes Richard. Glad your healthy after heart issues
😂 Ida bought her in a minute ! 😂 Good Luck Guys ! 👍
make it a driver and coat with oil and drive as is. put in glass get most of it working and leave natural
grats! yeah, those s6's never let me down. The "paddles" look like mud/rock flaps, never liked them. maybe they were from some other project and got mixed in. Mechanically amazing, body mmm, looks like a write-off. You're both lookin good & healthy, take care.
Your buddy with the speed shop if he's still selling parts you would probably everything you need to build that car .All you need is a lift in there you'd have it made richard
Congratulations on the new shop. You both have,certainly ,earned it.
,
Great new shop. This is just what you need. Excited for my favorite couple.
Thank you, Mike. We love the new place, and it should allow us to provide more, better content. Stay tuned!
That peace that you ask if the viewers knew what it is it looks like a u joint strap
Great job as always. That car has some real possibilities. I would look into finding a parts car. That said not sure how far you are from Kansas, but a RUclipsr, Adventures made from Scratch I am pretty sure he has 2or 3 of these cars. He does sell them to people, as is, and not crazy money. This car with TLC could be made to be back in its glory.
No sir, that's what we call a granny box three speed transmission. That transmission came in Chevrolets with the open drive from around 1955 until the mid sixties when they went to the fully synchronized three speed. Of course this car had the same basic transmission it was just a closed driveshaft setup (torque tube). This is going to be interesting what you guys do with this car.
Lets call this car THE NEW BORN..
Happy for you guys to get that awesome work shop.
Thanks Dave❤
good for you Two
Hi Richard And Christina I love your channel. I enjoy watching you guys do what ever you do. Burned out chevy you can do your magic on the outside and get Christina to do the interior.
I'd like to see a restoration but it's your call.
Take your time and restore it with the current color! Chrome wheels with beauty rings and baby moon càps
What a beautiful shop! You guys deserve it!
I am so happy to see Richard doing so well after his ordeal. You two definitely deserve to have such a nice shop. Your hard work and dedication to preserving our automotive history never ceases to amaze me. God bless you both in abundance.
Thank you as always for the support Matt. We really appreciate it.
Start sanding start painting and start putting that girl back together put her back on the road she needs a new life well build resurrected Classics Lebanon Tennessee wild Bill
The unknown trim "paddles" are accessory front fender stone guards.
I THINK YOU SHOULD KEEP IT RUNNING AND MAKE IT YOUR RETIREMENT PARADE CAR 😂 🤠🇺🇸😊 52:05
This was a practical demonstration of how peculiar fire can behave!
Perimeter valve cover mounting are later model 50s to 1962 better engines.
I Had A Lot Of Chevys In My Time Can't Beat Those Chevys🎉
congrats on the new home and shop
Awesome video I love the new shop
After the war, Chevrolet had new styling much better than Ford
Congrats on the new shop.I always loved the car as is.
Thanks! I do as well.
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT PUT BACK TOGETHER LIKE IT IS AND DRIVEN, GREAT OLD CAR
THanks for doing the video , I have been waiting to see it
Congratulations on your new garage, it's great. Great car digging the blue
Congratulations 🎉
I love your new shop !!
Congratulations on your new garage Richard and Jennifer
your new shop looks great, always love your banter and content
good stuff as always thanks 4 the share love the new digs ✔✔💯💯 till the next stay well stay safe ✌✌
There is little profit in you fixing it up. Pass it along as is to someone willing to restore it.
Great job u 2 always keeping clean and interesting
That looks like a later model 235 engine. The engine, transmission, and rear differential may have come out of a tri five Chevy.The glass pack mufflers do look like Smithy's.
I think you are right. I'll run the numbers and find out what year the 235 is.
I’d say get it running and driving around and leave it the way it is
Sounds awesome
Awesome video!!
Ordered the Cre-Oil. Used the discount code RUST50. Looking forward to using it. It was encouraging to see you use it on those hood hinges!
I am sure you will like it. I would never endorse it if I didn't think it was the best.
Congrats on the new shop! Suggest making the '51 Chevy drivable for occasional local car shows.
I'd like to see it Restored, But if you can't do it I wouldn't want to see her clear coated over the burnt areas and looking like a Freak show Car , She deserves to be Sold to someone Financially able to bring her back to her Former Glory.
Right on, Robert.
Go to that junk yard you just showed us and start grabbing.
You was so so right your shop needed christening! Soon as the shop got all the necessary's tbe car fired right up! Also congrats on the new shop! Another fantastic vid from the Dynamic Duo! Love you guys and keep the wrenches flying and keep themm old cars from dyeing!
Yeah, I would put it together a little bitthe way you could drive it around the yard. Then you go from there of what you want to do with it nexthave a great day. I enjoy what you do❤❤❤❤❤❤
Exactly! We are thinking the same.
nice
I would like to see you restore this vehicle back to its original glory but I do understand that you don’t want to spend a fortune on it. Just my thoughts 😊
Thanks Bernie. We will take it a step at a time and see where we end up. One thing for sure, the car will be in a better place than before we started.
Awesome job guys! Love all the Woo Hoos!
Great video lovely to see the old girl got a good home. I think u need to give it some of that vice grip shine juice. Would look great.
The bracket In the boot u found looks like it's to hold the steering column to the dash
Thanks for that info. We will be needing that part for sure!
By the looks of the body and underbody she is well worth fixing up, please don't part her out.
Agreed. No plans to part her out, but I will be selling off the continental kit.
That's a really nice shop love the size of it l am happy for you Richard and Christina love your videos
👍👍
Congratulations on the new shop you deserve it keep up the great videos will continue to watch thank you
Thanks for the support, Jerry. More videos are in progress.
Congrats on the new shop/studio!
no gasser just put in glass interior and drive as is
Nice shop! That Chevy will be a nice ride with a little work y’all great video
Thank you, Hank.
you scored a big shop. awesome.
Creole is a excellent penatrant.❤😊
Congratulations on your new shop. Can't wait to see what you do to the fire Chevy.👍
All the sheet metal is still good nice start
Congratulations on your new shop!! My nephew, years ago, "walled off" a section of his large pole barn by hanging some heavy duty tarps to enclose his heated work space area. Thanks again for the video and the shop tour!!
nice to see you in your new shop ,well done.
Good luck with the new shop.
I watched the initial video and commented that the engine is a 1954 or newer 235. If the carb is original to the engine, and the fact that the car has an open drive line, my guess would be a 1955 or newer 235. If you post the number stamped to the rear of the distributor, I can decode year and application. The Sister Kathrine paddles are '51-'52 front fender shields. Share the paint code number from the cowl tag...I can tell you how it was painted originally...In 1951 Chevrolet did not offer a light blue; in 1952? Yes! 1951? No! In fact, in 1952, those colors together were a two tone combination. Code 473 was Admiral Blue Metallic [upper], Twilight Blue [lower]. The "U" shaped bracket is to attach the steering column to the bottom of the instrument panel.
For many of us, It's a dream shop!
Richard, this shop are very incredible. This Blue car, I think it's possible to put run with same pices and paint the car. Nothing very dificult, only a new life.
congrats on the new to you shop.
PS I have two 71 c-10, I am restoring, it's going as fast as I would like it to but am praying God will give me the strength and wisdom to finish before I die, God bless you, Wayne
Hi Richard & Christina, greetings from Scotland.
Great video, and congratulations on your new shop. That is a major step forward in your business plan, and I’m sure it will make for more great videos. Once you get it set up to your personal taste, it will be great.
Do you intend to install a lift ? Lying on the floor doesn’t do much for the back.
Whilst it’s great to see the Chevy getting saved and improved, you are correct to be cautious about the costs involved.
If you can begin the restoration process by getting the shell rebuilt, new glass, seating & making it drivable i think that would set it up for someone else to continue the project. The profits generated could then be deployed into new or existing projects.
BTW Richard, I agree with Christina…No to a Gasser. It would be an act of sacrilege to change it from the original configuration…in my humble opinion.
It’s great to see the channel grow and develop, and the shop will enhance the development further.
All the best
John
God has given you a gift to restore things,I hope you know Gods power peace and presence every day!Please go a little further with the hard-top Chevy like arresting the rust and painting the outside and doing the interior.We see so much of the half hearted jobs done,but with the Bideflation prices I can understand.--God Bless you ,keep looking up-----Vic Lehr.
You can fix it up and the old car 🚗 will live again. People like you and your wife car like that won't get fix. I'm glad you are fixing the old car up. God bless you and your wife. From Jim
I abhor continental kits. They are such a distraction from the original lines. Admittedly, the first generation T-Birds did look snappy with a spare tire mounted outside. Thank you for another fabulous video. Please paint the car. I've grown tired of patina. Great looking shop 👍
Glad to see you got the car back. You don't have to worry about A/C for that one Richard, there's no glass! It's got what we call the 250 system. Two windows down 50 mph. And congrats on the new place!
Now you have plenty of time to think about what you want to do with it now that its home.
I say bolt it back together, get it drivable, and do a satin clear right over that fire damaged
rust. It'll look authentic and it will tell a story.
Congratulations on getting a shop. Plenty of space out of the weather and you could even have a spray booth. Suggestion - put in a decent heating system for a specific insulated area first. AC too for the summer. You'll thank yourself!
Another plus: the neighbors at your house will like you better 😉
Good luck Richard & Christina with your new shop and with car #51😊 . Look forward to your next video.
P my first car on a 51 Chevy Bel Air 2-door and I
wish I had it 298 it had a brown roof and cream body . I would love to see this car restored perhaps robin egg blue body and a dark blue top.
I think congratulations are in order on your new home and shop. It is perfect for you and a lot better than what you had. Shop size looks great. Do you have a number on this ride ? Where are you located...don’t need address just thinking about how long it would take to get to you. Not sure why you went back to get this one but would like to see it brought back as I said in previous posts, this would be perfect to show what a younger person can do on a restricted budget. Fix it right new patch panels, wiring, suspension, interior. It doesn’t have to be really fast, just sound good. Good luck and stay safe.
Well it doesn’t have to be $1 million workshop is what works for you And I’m sure there’s gonna be even more excellent content coming as with this video well done🎉🎉🎉
straight 6 always my favorite-good video guys-nice shop!!!!
Love you guys ! Love all your vids - the longer the better, and your new shop is great ! Regards from Western Australia.
You MIGHT WANT TO PUT SNOW ROOF ON TOP, ROLLS OR BRUSHS AND SEALS METAL DROPS HEAT IN SUMMER, INSULATS IN ⛄️🤠🙏 1:03:42 1:03:42
Either go all out and restore it or leave it alone. Personally I think it's way too much trouble to try and give this old clunker any new life. It's just missing way too many parts!
Congrats on your continuing recovery, nice shop, do just enough to make it a driver, go, stop, turn, interior, glass, vgg shine juice, keep the straight 6.
