Bringing a 1968 Oldsmobile 442 Back To Life After 30 Years
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- Tony (@av.boys) and I got distracted by a 1968 Oldsmobile that's been sitting in his back yard for 30 years and try to get it running with lots of cleaning, a few spark plugs, and a very safe water bottle filled with fuel.

Tess is the sweetest thing. Can’t wait to see you guys next week!
you are so rite Bill and i always look forward to your next video take care and see y’all
I totally agree with ya bill
She brightens up the day for sure
Bill I really believe you could out shift Tony mustang throw down
A 68 Olds 442 with a manual is my favorite muscle car you two are entertaining
Brings back memories,first car was a 70 Maverick and second was a 68 Olds 442 Ragtop
You all should restore her. Would be a sweet ride.
Yes,100%. Not many on the road especially stick.
Look like Tess was going to have to call on Fred Flintstone to stop that thing when she was going to reverse 😆🤣
Tess take the water bottle away from Tony before he catches both of you on fire 🔥. 😂😂😂 GOOD LAWD
I have a 72 Oldsmobile cutlass convertible needing about the same amount of restoration. Storing it at my mothers house for now.
Of course it was going to run...it's a GM! Now that 6.0 diesel on the other hand! LOL Great video guys! 👍👍
Bet my 6.0 powerstroke outruns and outlast a duramax lmao
I like your dimples tess also your man's super lucky to have a women like you im sure everyone agrees awesome video
442's are so sweet man!
My 1st legal car was a 68 442 ❤
Built a 455 with a 425 crank, 2x4bbl low rise intake, big cam n more goodies.
Awesome Oldsmobile
Love seeing them run again
What I like to do when I start a car that's been sitting for a long time is use two-stroke gas. And your pistons and everything get oil as soon as they get gas works like a charm
Man i just like yall more and more Oldsmobile, Foxbody and Mavericks my 3 favorite things
That stripe on the left fender makes this car look like someone crossed a 442 with a SuperBee
I had a flashback to Uncle Buck at the end with all the smoke. Should be good now for another 20 years.😁
That is a Holiday sport coupe, worth researching and restoring
Tess. Tony wants to be a plumber when he grows up. Thats called a plumbers crack when his shorts are falling off lol
You guys had me cracking up.
Thanks I needed that.
You two r a riot! Really enjoy the show.
June Morgan had a Red 442 and both were what dreams are made of in the great state of Georgia! One fine young Lady and could dive like a demon with a smile!!!
I used to work for a guy that had a ‘66 model with a factory drag pack. Had 3 deuces and a .390 gear. Cool car. All stock and he bought it new
Well Miss Maverick that was one very good look of SHEAR PANIC!!!!! Thanks for sharing. New subscriber the old man’s garage turned me on to your channel. 🇺🇸👍
My first builder was an 83 cutlass I found at the back of a GM dealer ( repo special ). It had a 260 v8 and low power. I drove it to my neighbors salvage yard and pulled the motor. He had a 350 big block just like that car. I spent a week after my high school classes and swapped it in. It bolted right into metric turbo 350 trans and all. What a screamer it was and never lost a race. I miss that car so bad now. Thanks for the memories.
I love those old cars my first car was a 68 Chevelle SS with a 4 speed
How did I miss this episode? Great video!!!
You two are perfect together
The stripe W36 option is original to that car. What many people do is add it to their 442 if it did not have one. Problem is if the car didn't come with the stripe, the 442 emblem is moved forward slightly so when the stripe is added it is too close to the wheelwell. It ends up into the curve of the wheelwell and doesn't look right. Great project car, one year only unique styling on that car. Safe travels!
Wow ....my mom had one of these and took me to pre k in it...I use to ride in the package tray....
Tony is So lucky to have a woman that's into cars like tess is not to mention she's not to hard to look at either
Who needs brakes? They just slow you down, what could go wrong, it'll be fine!!! ✌😁
Yep it'll buff our!
Advertising Crack on RUclips is against the law TONY!!!! 🤣😂🤣😂 Jus Kidding! Thx for the great vid guys!!!
Great team work guys, can't wait to see more
I have a ‘68 442 in about the same condition. Mine is all manual though so I have even more room under the hood.
Glad that you got it fired up and running.
For a last minute tweaker project (as Tony called it)this video is awesome. from Tess pulling spark plugs with her witty comments and her Cindy Lou who messy bun on the top of her head to Tony’s ass hanging out these two are hilarious.although I could have done with out the man ass this is one of my new fav channels. Next to SRC and Old man garage
Love oldsmobiles I have a 79 cutlass
You guys are Nuts 😂! Loved the ending as it slowly walked off in a cloud of dust and smoke 😂😂❤️🇺🇸
VERY VERY COOL PROJECT.
NIce car and would be a cool project! Yall are a good pair together for sure! Only thing freakin me out is pouring that gas on the carb and the dist and coil! I was like we r fixing to watch this thing burn down! Cant tell u how many times ive seen spark jump from an old points cap or coil wire on a car that has been sitting was trying to get running!
Seafoam tiiiime! Yes.... lets see some Maverick street action!
You guys need to take that 68 -442 and turn it into a 4speed street and strip car love to see that.
Just do a aftermarket 5spd.
Btw, love your car, currently going to get at my 69 cutlass ragtop, first start after purchase in 2014 was yesterday April 15th 2023. Needs total restoration.... P.E.I. Canada
Bro... You are sooooo Sooooooooo lucky... Seriously man.. I know u might not think so ... But please don't take it for granted
The videos are always cool to watch Tess and Tony the car looks cool
Thanks midnight 😘 the best on the west love the video !
My classmate & cousin resurrected his dads 68 442 4 speed “1985” swapped in 70 455 torqer 2 intake 850 Holley & man did it have a top end w a 2.56 posi , with that torque it would dip into the 13s in 1/4 but fast for 2 15 year olds that street raced by sneaking around , miss the 80s , neat car !
I sure enjoy watching your videos. Glad I found you guys.
Great job guys and gals y'all got it going 👍🇺🇸 and I bet y'all be driving it around in no time 😜🤣💪💪
My all time favorite car. I was lucky enough to have a cutlass and a 442 in the early 90s
glad you guys are putting out videos again THANK YOU ! that shizz was funny🤣!
I think Tony needs a smaller jet in that water bottle! 😆
Love the 442
Great content thanks for sharing
Tess, when you see spider webs, just thank of silk. 😎
Great video
Ya Buddy! Bring it back to life!!!
She was like Slow Me Down oh man this is going to be great I haven't laughed so hard watching these two freaking trying to get that car started
MAN I was so STRESSED! 😂 Every time I took my hand off the steering wheel to turn it off or put it in neutral it would make a hard turn towards the other cars parked there, I couldn’t do anything fast enough 😂🤣😂
@@MissMidnightMaverick I loved it Tony had me cracking up with that bottle he was just pouring and pouring and pouring I can't believe you didn't flood that carburetor LOLOL can't wait to see what you guys do with Molly's old Mustang and can't wait to see more videos
Man i fell out laughing when Tess said slow me down slow me down and Tony all calm….cut it off🤣🤣
AND of course the Brake Stand Burn Out just because ! - I approve !!
Guys it's a 455 Oldsmobile rocket motor one of the best motors Oldsmobile made For speed it's muscle motor
Absolutely loved this one
That looks like a Lucore special right there ...
Lmao!!! Yessssss!
@@theoldmansgarage don't let Austin see that. He won't be able to sleep until he owns it !!!
🤣
That's exactly what I was thinking. Austin would go nuts over that 442
Love these guys I am subscribing because the old man is good friends and Billy the Kid of course more Billy the Kid than the old man just saying and don't and also I remember when he stood the great mayor on its bumper back in the OG days never forget that totally you're a bad-ass bro
I'm new to you're channel and I really love you're content keep the videos coming....
Great video guys!
Cool Video, Guys, I'm Looking Forward To Your Footage From National Trail Raceway With The Old Man And The Lads! (Robby From South Africa)🤓
That 442 is a really cool car and could be cherry with some work, definitely gotta restore that olds. That should be a 400 in that 442, but I’d put a 4 speed back in it though. Definitely want to see more of that car, thanks for sharing.
well let me say ,you both are a class act .lol .
the olds could be something really nice with a lot of tme and some money ..
I can’t wait to get that car road worthy. We’re waiting for our shop to be done before we get started on restoring it though.
Great video, I can’t believe that 6 L runs at all, had the same Oldsmobile when I was 12
442 some of the most slept on cars ever!!!
Let's go Tony and Tess awesome content
I try to pour gas down the vent tube of the carb to fill the bowl. Looks like great fun 😀 best of luck 👍
What a hilarious video ! Great job again guys. Keep it up. You both are obviously much more comfortable behind the camera. Can’t wait for more. Flip that 442 for maverick money! 😂
Don’t break our hearts and let the maverick be anything but a sbf!
SBF for life! I may go 9.5 deck though. Don't hate me 😂
@@MissMidnightMaverick I support that message. My only regret in life is not going 9.5 deck in the first place. Can’t wait to see it ! 🤘😎🦅
Those cars were fast back in day ..needs a 4 speed back in it !
Uncle bucko, would call that's a lack of maintenance .
That's a lack of ANYTHING! Haha.
Tess seams to be more into it than Tony lol
68 442 there's not many of those around I'd like to have that
We have big plans for this car once we get our shop built and some other projects done. I'm really excited to get this car roadworthy.
Tony you are an absolutely lucky man! She is 100% grade A++ perfect, a keeper and thE rarest to find.
Great video guys and keep up the good work.
Also that 442 could turn out very nice!
P.S. Check the high pressure oil pressure with a scanner on that 6.0 diesel and see if it is out of spec. If you don't know what spec is I can look it up and tell you.
Thank you! It actually ended up being the cam sync. We’ve had so many problems with that dang 6.0, but we just sold it last week and we, have two other 6.0s that seem much more reliable 😂 as well as a 7.3 and a 6.7 that never give us problems, aside from the HPOP in the 7.3 😂
@@MissMidnightMaverick that 6.7 with the CP4 will give you problems soon enough.
@@Iknowvfx we actually had a 2011 6.7 that had the CP4 go out at 160k miles and it took the whole fuel system with it. Thankfully it was still under warranty and Ford covered it all. But the 2018 that we have now only has 29k miles on it and hasn’t had an issue.
@@MissMidnightMaverick The 7.3 International motor was a very very good engine.
you can actually fill the float bowls by putting gas down the vent tube and get a little bit of idle and possibly a few revs out of it, for something that has been sitting for a long time I recommend using the premixed 2 stroke gas that way the cylinders get a little extra oil with the gas, it'll help the rings on first start up, and help lube the carburetor. nice little tip I picked up from vice grip garage.
It wasn’t in the video, but we squirted some WD-40 in each cylinder when the spark plugs were out.
@@MissMidnightMaverick yea, I heard you guys say you did after I wrote the comment lol
Came for the tess booty and received the tony booty. Happy birthday to me 🤣🤣🤣
Tweaker jobs and crack attacks ! Love to start my weekend this way!
Tony and tess make more videos please I love the videos
We might have two next week 🤔
I can't wait till u go to src family and drive the white pony that was awsome.
We're flying back next week!
I enjoy watching your videos you guys make it fun.
Finally a badass car!😍😍
Great content guys even it is old GM. I am longtime Ford guy and only non blue oval ever worked on was my wife's Dodge Dakota.
I only watch this channel to learn more about Audis.
I want that car I had one when I was younger and miss it
You guys straight crack me up lol awesome videos keep them coming!! I have the sickness of being a car freak just as you guys my last drag car was a mild foxbody so I'm really digging the Fox that y'all bought back from Ohio. I'm in Southern Oregon and like to race at my local track medford drags. Hope to meet y'all one day!
Id love to find a tweaker with that same ride for sale .. heck it could be a cutlass
They circled the problem. Like your teacher did in school. They were never made to fix the problems. lmao 🤣
You need to sell the 442 to Tommy so he will have a bad ass street race car 👍
Would love to see more of the 442!
Subscribed!
Holy crap you got a grill and the headlight surround. They're getting really rare.
That was awesome!!!!!!
442's had a 400 cubic inch
There is a legit " that's what she said" in this video. 😂
Beautiful car Chevy 442. :)
Did you get the 86 home? Mollies old car, I knew it had potential
TONY IS AWESOME!!! Tweaker projects 😆 I too suffer from daily tweaker project distractions. Ps..NOT A TWEAKER .....I Think????🤔 Tess is really something too!!!
great vid guys
Damn I hate that feeling everytime it happens I'm like please don't be the hpop!!!!!!! My 06 its usually a stand pipe or dummy plug but I absolutely love my 6.0s after I do my updates to them
