There are guys out there working in cleanroom conditions with new parts and tools that can't get their motors to run... This man is not one of those guys... I've been a follower for a year or so and what I've learned is that no matter how dire the situation looks... never bet against his success!
I appreciate that even when you are talking you are doing something. Too many guys on these kinds of channels spend too much time talking about doing something but not actually doing much. You have a great attitude.
*- It is all probably old hat for most folks here, but I learned a lot, Brent.* *- Thanks for all the work you put in just so a relative novice like me could learn.*
For my fellow car-nuts... as awesome as this hobby is, don't forget your home. Can't tell you how many times I see people with fantastic garages, with an amazing lot, and then a super-dump home... sometimes even like a trailer. Put your creative juices into fixing up and improving your home too... guarantee you will live better and appreciate your hobby even more.
Just love the way that your're dedicated to doing something with these old cars. And good to see the General out and about again, I bet he's a talking point wherever you go.
I love it too that you are saving these old cars 👍 always makes me smile seeing a notification of a new video from you. Best to you and yours (and the pups!)
Hate to see him ' forcing ' that motor to turn. Too many things can get destroyed in the process, but then hey, it's only an old rare rocket Olds motor, they're on every corner.
I can see when you are in your element getting these scrapped engines, and cars back to life. Really fascinating to watch. Back in the 80's/90's I restored 4 stationary engines or barn engines as they may be known your side of the pond. It was very satisfying to turn them from what looked like a lump of scrap to a gleaming exhibit that I took to shows. I did it different to you, the whole thing would be stripped and then each piece restored to as new condition and missing pieces acquired as necessary. Nowadays there is much more emphasis on the sympathetic restoration - how times change.
That is so true..I am so bored with the 350/350 combos from the 80s/90s and now the LS swaps. I keep finding myself watching flathead transplants. And to think we used to junk flatheads when I was young. Goes around,comes around.
I was messing with flatties in the early 70's and they were so far out of fashion that i could get nice pats for free, then in the early 90's I decided to build a Hemi and same story, parts were cheap or free ,especially unfashionable multi carb set ups. If the communists get their way in 2030 we will looking for cheap IC engines as electric crap becomes the norm...
@@Mercmad Its not the commies, it is the radical environmentalist Japanese-lovers and that bicycle trash. The Ruskies actually made some kool cars. Imagine a Volga with the sewing-machine 4 replaced with a Ford 302! Or a Chaika with its small 275 V8 replaced with a real Packard V8!
when u passed the Row of beautiful old cars & trucks I heard them Cry with Joy and heard them say" Is he going to get our motors running too?????" You gave them hope to live again.I fix old things as well,Not on your scale,But i truly Believe Mechanical Life,although different than us is LIFE None the less Great job Bud !
The last victory lap made me chuckle... throw an engine together, push start until it runs, no brakes, rad tied up, no exhaust, lots of ventilation holes in the floor, doors sagging and poping open, fuel tank on front seat, battery to run electric fuel pump, running the drone, driving around a field. Any safety nazis better just turn away fast or suck it up. Except for the drone (didn't have them when I was a kid) that sooo reminded me of my youth. Even drug one home on it's roof because the wheels were stuck. Man that was loud! Good times indeed! Thanks for bringing back some fun memories, Brent.
That car would have been a money maker if you're a betting man. 👎 body thought you'd make laps much less manually push start it. It needed a big pow out the exhaust as you cut it off
Great video 👍. NEW SUBSCRIBER. My great uncle owned a dairy farm near Okemos, Michigan. His 2 young boys and the wife milked the cows while he worked at the Oldsmobile GM plant in Lansing. He made those cars in the 50s. The plant made the 88 and 98 from the 40s to the 80s. When the plant closed in 2005, it was the longest running auto plant in the USA. He made good money. He also owned an airplane and I'd fly with him. I lived over near Corunna on a farm on M-21 between Lansing and Flint. The trucks would go by the house with Fisher Body frames headed to Lansing. A lot of my cousins, and grandfather worked for GM in Flint. I couldn't see working in the auto plants, although the plants paid good money. I got drafted anyway and sent to Vietnam. Eaglegards...
Last rights were read by the General on the ride home, coffins just about closed and as they get ready to start shoveling dirt on it you go “hang on a second, are you sure she’s dead?!?!” Boom, first she’s a roller then a runner! All done with the patience of a saint. You’re unbelievable brother, great job! Always a pleasure seeing the General pulling its weight as well as anything else you throw at it. Man I do love that rig, just awesome! Thanks for taking us along, that hour and a half flew by!
I own a 1950 Studebaker and would love seeing you make that car a real car again. I love my Studebakers over all my other vehicle. People have no idea just how great the Studebaker Cars were and are. Mt. Shasta Orphan Classics.
That aerial shot of your driving around sans frond metal just looked so beautiful (in my eyes). Thank you so much for posting, it brightened my day (just goes to show you, you can never tell what brings people joy) Good luck with your endeavours.
My former neighbor inherited his deceased Uncle's car in the mid '60's. A 1953 Olds 98 convertible green with a green leather interior and tan top. He took meticulous care of it and began restoring it to show quality. He also added factory option tri-power to it. He began taking it to car shows and won tons of trophies because it was such a rarity in that it had power windows, manual side vent windows, power steering, power brake and a three on the tree.
Really enjoyed this one..I love long vids. Some 90 year old sees you drivin around in the car he junked 50 years ago..what a hoot. It's a win win to me any time you get an old locked up engine to fire up and run.
That's a 51 olds. Interior color is 51. Diagonal side trim on quarter panel is wider than the 52 and the generator brackets are 51. I own a 51 Super 88 Club Coupe.
The man with the magic hands saves another one. It really sounded pretty good once you got it running. If you rebuilt that engine it would drive on for another 100,000 miles easy. I love the Hot Rod idea and would love to see it. You hit all the bases on this one on how to start a stuck engine. Great show.
I’m bummed the starter went because I’d love to see where the compressions are now that she got some heat cycles through the rings. Great job getting her to come back around she sounds great!
I thought this thing was going to be a looser i was nervous and had finger crossed then I saw you do it so I knew then it was going to be a winner, because you was not throwing in the towel. When that head had to come off, It even made me think about a beer. and I do nit drink.
Sorry I just sold my generator/Starter armature lathe and growler. All United Motors Service stuff from the late '30's. I wanted it all to go to someone who wants to rebuild rather than just cram on a Delco one wire Alternator. As mechanics we knew how to do all of these things. Not like plasma parts changers of today.
Once she gets running, every body sit in the middle when going down the road, and make sure no one leans to either side!!! Also make sure no one ate pork and beans before the ride!! Thanks Brent, and have a great day buddy!!!
On the tag that you show its Canadian Canadian tags is totally different from us if I knew how to send a picture through this comment section I would send you a picture 1953 Oldsmobile tag breakdown from my book. I have a book of 1950 to 1959. For General Motors Ford Chrysler Packard's Studebakers Kaiser and Frazer Willy's Dodge and Plymouth Lincoln and Mercury Pontiac Oldsmobile Chevrolet Hudson Nash.
That 53 has a special meaning for me. In 1959, I bought a 53 Olds that had only been rolled once. I swapped the engine, tranny, and rear end, into a 1934 Ford pickup. I loved that Hydramatic! I haven't even finished watching the video, and I am already excited about your quest to get it running.
Just love the way that you're dedicated to doing something with these old cars. And good to see the General out and about again, You're hell of a good mechanic . I love it too that you are saving these old cars 👍 always makes me smile seeing a notification of a new video from you . It is good to see than you don't give up .
Put a 53 Pontiac, Buick or Cadillac front clip on it, which ever one you can find cheapest just to drive people bonkers. Both Buick and Oldsmobile automobiles with standard transmissions were rare in 1964 when I got my driver's license. The only Pontiacs I ever saw were that were in the early 50s years that had standard transmissions were 6 cylinder models. The hydramatics were good transmissions but they ate up horsepower and the dynaflows were just junk.
Fond du Lac, Wisconsin here.. I was born in 1952 when my Dad was driving a 1948 Ford shoebox, then Oldsmobile with the Rocket 324 and Hydromatic beat out the competition at the races...so my Dad bought a new 1954 Creame w/ Bronze and Forest Green interior Delta 88 Olds with the Rocket motor. My Uncles were all running Hudson twin "H" motors. My Dad blew them away!!! What fun memories. Thank you for all you do. Love your channel.
Agreed on the Dynaslush. Had a 51 4 door with the straight 8 and the automatic. What a cruiser for a high school kid! A real torque monster even with the automatic (but not a burnout queen, too heavy). Great to load up the gang and head for the local drive-in restaurant at lunchtime. Miss that old girl.
You were saying that you had another Olds engine with an automatic, If I'm not mistaken these cars had the Hydromatic transmissions that were 4 speeds even though the shifter was showing three gears and were very strong! Also the Olds and Pontiac rear ends were the hot ticket back in the day! Maybe it was later in the 50's when they were so desirable for their engines and transmissions!
you Brent , are sure entertaining , just go on marketplace find a toy to play with for few days.. and with some deja vu perseverance get to the 5* set goal .

Did you add another ground? I thought I saw a gasket on that bell housing.no starter ground
You needed a little shim on the starter maybe??
That is a boat anchor. Stop wasting your time .start restoring those other trucks.

I think Pablo will ride in almost anything...but drew the line on this one.😁😁
Nice job Brent! You brought her back from the great beyond,😂 👏!!!
The perfect music to end this one! Looks like the ole girl would be right at home in downtown Havana! Good job Brent!
Back in the day that car was someones pride and joy off the lot.Great road test.Thanks for the time spent on that one Brent.
I never had any doubt you would get it to at least run a bit. You are definitely the glass half full kinda guy.
in an emergency or trouble situation this mechanic will get you out of trouble! It has no limits!
Good save on a great engine.
Was in doubt for a while if you could save it, but I should know by now you don't give up.
