I prefer the longer videos and I think the 2 episodes of rehab and a fun road trip is brilliant! Thank you for sharing and have a great weekend to come👍🏻🙂
I love wagons, and how honest you are with attempting to spend as little as possible. The longer videos are great and the editor is truly a master at picking great content with audio levels everyone can understand. You do not pretend to be Chip Foose or Boyd Coddington you are a family man just trying to make in this world, and try to have a ton of fun along the way. When your whole family gets involved, and pitches in to make something always unique and fun together that makes these vehicles even better and more fun to watch. It takes a lot of guts to do this full time and bet on yourself; I am damn proud of you and support you as I can. You always are able to adapt to any situation, improvise a solution when necessary, and overcome any obstacle in your path. Great video, I am looking forward to the series. Thanks!
Don't feel bad about the way you paint engines, That's the exact same way Cummins paints engines when you spend upwards of $45,000 for one! I swear they assemble it and then dunk the whole thing in a vat of paint or something 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Longer builds is why I'm here! I found your channel when you dragged out a 1960 Pontiac that we never got to see again. But than you did the Holy Goat and that had to be 20 videos.
I absolutely love the longer videos, especially with multiple parts. The process of going from a hunk to something actually usable is an absolute delight.
The “use what you got” motto of your channel makes it one of my favorites to watch. Every time you don’t buy something and instead use a close-enough equivalent (i.e. leftover tractor paint, trunk lid for floors, etc) it is so satisfying to watch. Poverty genius is what makes us humans so great!😂 🤘🏻
I don't go out of my way to like any new RUclipsrs, but after seeing a bunch of junkyard digs episodes featuring you, and getting a kick out of your style I decided to give your channel a shot. I've only seen the one other video, that GTO one, and that was worth the watch. I'll make sure to watch a few more episodes but so far it's entertaining. I never thought I'd watch an hour plus long RUclips videos but I find myself watching more and more of them.
I love you guys. This channel is an example of "content is king" . PBG doesn't need fancy cars, glossy garage floors and fresh brand new sponsored parts. Ya'll get it done like the rest of us that wrench on our own cars in our driveways.
I love these 2-3 parters. You get to see the finished product and your plans for the vehicle. Instead of the “What ever happened to that car?” Really enjoyed the current wagon revival. Keep up the good work!
22:11 "these gloves aren't fire proof" Man i just about came out of my chair at work. I just got done setting my shirt on fire (and i mean fire fire not smoldering) last Saturday while using an angle grinder because i thought it was a cotton shirt. It wasn't. I went up like i was soaked in gas. I had a welding helmet on so vision was limited. I was like. Hmmm. Why am i suddenly warm? Saw a flame coming up at my face. Somehow i only lost some hair. No burns. Thank God.
I love the multi-part builds you do. This looks like a really cool car and not a model you see every channel working on too. This should be a great road trip car.
Nice longer video - well worth the Low-Buck Club admission! TIP: Soaking bucket for smokers - use kerosene with your cleaner. You'll use less cleaner, you won't go 'BOOM', and you can use it practically forever (let it setle, salvage kerosene by coffee filters, add more cleaner, top off with more kerosene and off ya go).
What sort of cleaner would you add to kerosene? I was buying some kerosene based stuff for my parts cleaner but the price has gone ridiculous so I’d like to mix my own.
"Word", like the cool kids said in the '90's... I've got kerosene over 30 years old. Smells a little off - gawd knows what stuff it's collected over the years - but still cleans parts. Diesel is my favorite cleaner now though; impossible to flash off (in my experience), available everywhere, fairly cheap (even after FJB) and leaves a nice kinda WD40-like coating on your metal stuffs to protect from rust.
@@glenns5627 - Or 'Wicked nizzah!' as the cool kids around Boston would say in the late 60's and 70's 😎 (My kero's grodier than your kero ... lol) The coating is the one reason I don't like diesel - aside from the "perfume", but everyone has their likes. I still use motor oil and Assembly lube - more motor oil really (especially seating pistons down - how do these guys do that dry?) but not doing so much anymore but bikes and small engines so, who cares?
I think your idea for a series culminating in an awesome road trip with the family is a great idea! It would be cool to get to meet you when you come to Galveston.
You, Mortske and Kevin are my top car video channels. You are all knowledgably and entertaining and you work on all brands. I'm a Ford guy but the three of y'all treat all the brands with the same respect and disrespect.
It was priceless when Jess pulled you from the newer more expensive car - she adds so much to the channel. Another great episode. Love the longer the buildouts with cars with character like you are building on now.
Love the longer videos with the road trip format. It's always great to see these machines doing what they were meant to do. I'm looking forward to the next one!
Absolutely brilliant videos, you make real people believe that too can fix, repair or build their own car from the comfort of their own garage with basic every day tools. Your a real guy who smokes and swears and loves to include your family, to me your genuine. Please keep making videos
Every week I look forward to Daltons wonderful antics. And what I really enjoy is that he is actually very knowledgeable about cars but doesn’t let that stop him from having fun !!!!
When you said you were critically low on Self-Tappers I immediately yelled "We're gonna lose the shop!" This is gonna be a great build. I love the styling of these old cars. Incidentally, I also said "That's an AC Delco, that ain't gonna fit a Ford" when you got the Master Cylinder... I don't like to gloat but... I was right.
I don't know who needs to hear this but concerning heater cores, CLR works great for clearing them. My XJ's was plugged solid. Took it to the local shop and they tried some kind of acid and it didn't work. Me being cheap didn't want to pay $900 for them to install a core. Me, also trying to get out of ripping the dash apart, thought hey, this stuff works on all sorts of things, worse that happens is it doesn't work. Disconnected the heater hoses at the core, attached clear hoses, started filling to upper hose until it wouldn't take anymore. I angled the other hose upwards so I wouldn't lose any CLR if it started breaking the clog. 3 beers later I saw stuff seeping into the other hose. (About an hour) I let it cook for another 2 beers then put the lower hose into a bucket. I blew into the upper hose with a air nozzle (set at about 5 psi) and a big glob of junk came out then the CLR flowed. Rinsed system with hot water, put more CLR in, let it cook overnight. (I was 10 beers in by this point so it was sandwich time) Flushed more crap out the next day, rinsed with hot water, done. Had heat again. So yeah, maybe give Calcium Lime Rust remover a try. Save some $. (I really think adult beverages are key in the process.)
I love this kind of video where you build something you plan on having your family in. Some shortcuts that are funny but still making it relatively safe.
Man, that was fun, but I will be back to terrorize the back roads in this family wagon soon… might as well test it before it goes on a long haul road trip
Thank You Dalton for some excellent Thursday Eve entertainment! Saw a bit of the Live wher you and Buff were cleaning the 460. I've ALWAYS appreciated your " What is the commitment level, what it the cost level" thinking. THAT is what people with no sponsors, and limited to no money DO! I have this and this, I can make this work, because I need this to work and get to work tomorrow. We will go from there. I just put a man door on the back of my garage, two opposite side door hinge jambs and a header , swing it how it needs to be, and make it work! Amazing what can be done when you NEED to do it!
Jess is such a trooper and a great addition to the channel love seeing her on. I've sent countless people to her etsy store to help support her and you
I absolutely love the longer build vids and I really relate to your emphasis on doing things on a realistic budget. I was typically only in to Japanese/foreign cars until I started watching you and JYD, now I need me a big ol' American V8 in my life. Great content as always!
It looks like doing wagon restos are high right now! That 60 Ford looks like my friends from we hung around from 1968-1972. He drove a '60 2 Dr Galaxie w/292 and Ford-o-Matic auto. A slug mobile we called it. I like the longer videos on auto rebuilding and then a trip to see how much falls apart, if any! Dalton, you and your brother are very good at what you choose to do, that's what makes life interesting to watch. Dalton, you are one of a kind, meant in the good sense.
ive been waiting for this video cant wait to watch, dalton my dad and i are putting a bbc and th400 in a dj5 hopefully it might turn into a drag and drive car, that wagon is badass btw
It is. If he hasn't sold it, Iwill get you some photos and details sooner than later. As I understand he hasn't listed it and all interest has been word of mouth.
I wish I seen your way of working on cars a few years back.. I found an adorable vintage Jeep Commando for sale at a local junkyard .. I wanted it ! ... my loveone insisted it would be too expensive and too much work to restore.. metal was a lil dented and a lil rusted, but no significant damage or rot.. and as you show, we could have grabbed metal off of many things .. hell, our old old washing machine had heavy metal sides..lol Sure it may not be highend restoration, but it's keeping these vehicles around.. and drivable ! ... and it would have given us something else cute to drive. I really appreciate seeing how you fix up these cars, trucks and vans !
Best part about Thursdays is waking up and finding that there is a new super secret special video featuring a total POS cool car just for me (I’m sure other subscribers can see it too, but I pretend they can’t until after I have viewed it)
For the record I prefer longer format videos! I’m not a fan of the short format culture that’s being pushed so hard these days, I feel like it’s giving everyone ADHD. 🙃🐿️ I love the wagon, it gonna be sick! You also scored big time with the parts car, what a deal!
Build, road trip🤔 Yess! This is an excellent idea! Maybe you could add a few meet n greets along the way. Maybe a surprise visit to some lesser know garages like mine in Oklahoma lol. Thanks for your dedication to the craft my friend.
I like the idea of 2 or 3 segment builds. I love those old land yachts and it was sad that one was so rotted but it was put to good use for getting your long roof back on the road. On the broken motor mount I would have drilled a couple holes through it and put bolts, washers and nuts to hold it together. I have done it a few times and it worked fine for temporary mounts until the new ones arrived. Ford did make a 2 door version of that wagon but they are rare. I am looking forward to seeing this build completed. Hopefully the parts car you picked up has a good windshield in it for you. .
Came across your videos not to long ago and love them! Me and my old man are prepping a car for the rustbelt lemons and seeing you and your son working together warms my heart! Best of luck Dalton, I'll shoot a couple self tapers in our 68' Galaxie in your honor.
I really like the longer build format; esp on cars like this one! It DID take me 3 sessions to watch the whole thing, but I really enjoyed it.... Makes me feel more invested in the process! Excited to see it running, and excited for the Galveston trip..... Makes for a great video series! Great vid, brother! All A+++++
I enjoy the slower more careful builds! My favorite part of a project to watch is the time after it is pulled out of the weeds, but before it's perfect, working through everything and just making it work again!
You're a hoot as well as a genius. So, here's a fun way to keep the oil filter oil from filling up your armpit. Find something sharp and maybe threaded and shove it in the bottom of the filter. Then drain the oil. When you get back to the filter it will be drained. Keep up the restore multi episodes or don't. Either way I'll keep watching.
It amazes me that you can get away with just patching the floors like that, in New Zealand, Australia and many other countries you would have that car impounded, pink stickered (ordered off the road as an unsafe vehicle) or crushed. If you tried to import a car with a repair like that, they'd almost laugh at it and prevent you registering the car until the rust issues were fixed...by fixed I mean butt welded repair sections, like AMD do, or from a donor vehicle, it has to look factory or you're out of luck.I wonder if the USA have different rust repair requirements, State to State? Glad I don't have a car that rusts lol. Awesome channel, Dalton, don't go changing on us...
Im really looking forward to watching you build this car. I like the idea of a "series" type format. You dont have to do it all the time but sometimes is alright.
I really enjoy your grass roots way of getting these old cars back on the road . Most others would've grabbed what good parts there was and sent them to the crusher . I've been watching most of your videos since the first Holey Goat video . Great job on all of them .
I absolutely love this longer format. I can not wait to see how this project turns out. I think the the blue/teal/aqua seats will look killer in that wagon.
I love this old wagon so much. Gorgeous. The longer format videos suit me perfectly. I nearly hooted when I saw the run time. Your content is top tier. That said, the thing that got me most in this video is that you're doing all this to take Jess to see the ocean for the first time. How do you make magic happen in your life? This. This is how. Yet another reason I appreciate you, Dalton. I'm so happy that you decided to try the RUclips thing. Keep living that amazing life, brother. You've absolutely got this.
You build it we will watch. Absolutely you are on my bucket list. Spending a day or two working on one of those treasures. I really need to learn the art of the self tapper.
I can't wait to see more of this, i love when you do more than 1 video on your builds. You and VGG are my favorite channels to just sit and relax to after work.
This project really is the sweet spot of caring enough to make it a good car but also getting it done on a budget and in good time! Can't wait for the next episode! It's great to see an abandoned car getting its soul back :)
This is a great project you are building. I hope that you are able to complete this build and have a fun adventure and a safe trip to Galveston Texas Beach. It will be a whole lot of fun watching this. You have a ton of power to play with as well. All you need is to make the wagon as reliable and safe as possible. SEATBELTS! I live in the Philippines and there is not any automotive building here that I have seen. So I look forward to your RUclips show. Keep is real and Keep it safe. The hardest part will be feeding the beast of a engine that you chose for it!
Thought of you the other day as I self-tappered a bearing plate to the OUTSIDE of the top of a shock tower. Don’t worry…it’s a Derby Car. And then just for good measure I shot half a roll of weld at the whole thing, an entire tube of epoxy, and even some spray foam.
Hurt my back and haven't been able to wrench in over a week. Missing it. This gives me a lot of motivation to finish my current project. Almost done now! After I think I want to try something older and more budget friendly like this.
Yea!! Very much love long videos! Love bringing back to life and then a road trip! Love to see maybe nnkh and others do the same and make it like a cannonball run!
I like this new idea of format. It's cool seeing how experienced you are and skip steps or do something half assed cause you know how to do it right, but actually seeing you do service to a good ol wagon is cool
"I should have done that outside" while your looking at a puddle on your floor is becoming one of your catch phrases
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Need to put a picture with a car and a puddle under it on a t shirt with the "I should have done that outside" quote on there.
Good merch idea
@polebarngarage this should be merch.
That storm was wild, glad you guys made it through. Stay safe in round 2 tonight

"I rebuilt the carburetor with a stick" That's the best line I've heard all week. I'm a stickler for funny quotes...
That was as legit as it got. And it worked too
@@BuffsGarage I support it
I still laugh at the video from a couple weeks back when he said “we have 14 cans of chrome spray paint…let’s make something beautiful” 😂😂
That's up there with Jeremy Clarkson holding a hammer yelling, "I've mended something!"
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Please dont stop making videos . . . it feels like i am there hanging out with you while watching your videos . . .dont change a thing.
Never will
@@PoleBarnGarage spray paint some of the cars, even if it's a quick job ;)
@WilliamKiene-yg7rq It's still a smogger engine though so wonder how much power it really makes?
@PoleBarnGarage good to Hear I learn a lot from your channel
Thanks for the shout out sir! Enjoy your Super Scrapers!
I love wagons, and how honest you are with attempting to spend as little as possible. The longer videos are great and the editor is truly a master at picking great content with audio levels everyone can understand. You do not pretend to be Chip Foose or Boyd Coddington you are a family man just trying to make in this world, and try to have a ton of fun along the way. When your whole family gets involved, and pitches in to make something always unique and fun together that makes these vehicles even better and more fun to watch. It takes a lot of guts to do this full time and bet on yourself; I am damn proud of you and support you as I can. You always are able to adapt to any situation, improvise a solution when necessary, and overcome any obstacle in your path. Great video, I am looking forward to the series. Thanks!
As the editor, I appreciate it 😂

Some channels start a project and we don't see it again for 3 months or find out later they sold it or cut it up for scrap 🙄
@@Jay-in4fg Ya I'd bet he sold it.
Dalton, Jess, and JD on road trips in cars they build together sounds amazing!
I take it they are husband wife, and child? I'm new here.
I absolutely love the longer videos, especially with multiple parts. The process of going from a hunk to something actually usable is an absolute delight.
Dalton's legacy will be these amazing videos, his beautiful restorations, and the EPA Superfund Site that coincidentally surrounds his shop.
Sounds like good money for me

Love the wagon build with a 460!
Be careful,with the rear glass/ window - one year only. Will follow you to Part 2. 👍
That’s a drive in movie wagon. You lay in the “way back “ and watch a western. Perfection on that pick.
Several episodes of a big block wagon build with a road trip would be a most enjoyable watch. Keep it coming! Cheers! 😎👍🚙🏁🏁
Love the longer videos with the road trip format. It's always great to see these machines doing what they were meant to do. I'm looking forward to the next one!

I totally love this channel -- not slapping loads of 💸 on projects but make it happen with ingenuity and consistency 🤛🏽 ( and a great family)
I love longer builds. They let you get really invested in it. I've watched 30 part builds from Halfass customs and loved them.
This is my Saturday morning. Youngest is watching tv. I make coffee and relax in the good chair, watching PBG.
Great content!! Sometimes ya gotta use what ya got. That's how we do it too. That's a great old ford. love it.
I watch you all the way from New Zealand love the longer videos can't wait to see this cool tank back on the road again. Bring on the beach.

I wanted it ! ... my loveone insisted it would be too expensive and too much work to restore.. metal was a lil dented and a lil rusted, but no significant damage or rot.. and as you show, we could have grabbed metal off of many things .. hell, our old old washing machine had heavy metal sides..lol Sure it may not be highend restoration, but it's keeping these vehicles around.. and drivable ! ... and it would have given us something else cute to drive. I really appreciate seeing how you fix up these cars, trucks and vans !
For cheap egr deletes on Ford heads. Cut the blocks off, swap the sides, flip them over and bolt them back on. Free block off plate.
Best part about Thursdays is waking up and finding that there is a new super secret special video featuring a total POS cool car just for me (I’m sure other subscribers can see it too, but I pretend they can’t until after I have viewed it)
For the record I prefer longer format videos! I’m not a fan of the short format culture that’s being pushed so hard these days, I feel like it’s giving everyone ADHD. 🙃🐿️ I love the wagon, it gonna be sick! You also scored big time with the parts car, what a deal!
Build, road trip🤔 Yess! This is an excellent idea! Maybe you could add a few meet n greets along the way. Maybe a surprise visit to some lesser know garages like mine in Oklahoma lol. Thanks for your dedication to the craft my friend.
I like the idea of 2 or 3 segment builds. I love those old land yachts and it was sad that one was so rotted but it was put to good use for getting your long roof back on the road. On the broken motor mount I would have drilled a couple holes through it and put bolts, washers and nuts to hold it together. I have done it a few times and it worked fine for temporary mounts until the new ones arrived. Ford did make a 2 door version of that wagon but they are rare. I am looking forward to seeing this build completed. Hopefully the parts car you picked up has a good windshield in it for you. .
Came across your videos not to long ago and love them! Me and my old man are prepping a car for the rustbelt lemons and seeing you and your son working together warms my heart! Best of luck Dalton, I'll shoot a couple self tapers in our 68' Galaxie in your honor.
"Yes yes yes yes I can do it I feel great yeeaaahhhhhh" -Picolo
Ford has helped shadetree mechanics with using the same parts on multiple cars over many years. Gotta love it. Love the channel and the characters. ❤
I really like the longer build format; esp on cars like this one! It DID take me 3 sessions to watch the whole thing, but I really enjoyed it.... Makes me feel more invested in the process! Excited to see it running, and excited for the Galveston trip..... Makes for a great video series! Great vid, brother! All A+++++
Thanks as always buddy! Hopefully we can swing in and check out that new pickup
@@PoleBarnGarage Sounds great!!!
Love watching you build these cars, Youre very creative with how to fix stuff on them. I dont see myself ever unsubscribing from this channel
I enjoy the slower more careful builds! My favorite part of a project to watch is the time after it is pulled out of the weeds, but before it's perfect, working through everything and just making it work again!
You're a hoot as well as a genius. So, here's a fun way to keep the oil filter oil from filling up your armpit. Find something sharp and maybe threaded and shove it in the bottom of the filter. Then drain the oil. When you get back to the filter it will be drained.
Keep up the restore multi episodes or don't. Either way I'll keep watching.
G' day Dalton & team ,Re build and tripping that's good
It amazes me that you can get away with just patching the floors like that, in New Zealand, Australia and many other countries you would have that car impounded, pink stickered (ordered off the road as an unsafe vehicle) or crushed.
If you tried to import a car with a repair like that, they'd almost laugh at it and prevent you registering the car until the rust issues were fixed...by fixed I mean butt welded repair sections, like AMD do, or from a donor vehicle, it has to look factory or you're out of luck.I wonder if the USA have different rust repair requirements, State to State?
Glad I don't have a car that rusts lol. Awesome channel, Dalton, don't go changing on us...
Another great video, the 2+ video builds, and then road tripping em are a great idea. It keeps us coming back for more each week
I've learned that watching your videos the best ways to turn the sound down and play circus music it's so fun.
Im really looking forward to watching you build this car. I like the idea of a "series" type format. You dont have to do it all the time but sometimes is alright.
In 1972 I had one of those wagons with the 6 banger and three on the tree. It was so cheap to operate. I loved it!
0:35 oooohh what a beauty!!! Loove that design. back end is so cool. great find
Dalton, keep up the multi-video builds. Its nice to see all the work that goes into the build.
I really enjoy your grass roots way of getting these old cars back on the road . Most others would've grabbed what good parts there was and sent them to the crusher . I've been watching most of your videos since the first Holey Goat video . Great job on all of them .
So happy you picked up a camera and a drive just to see the ocean is the perfect reason your videos got me to get off my ass and really start doing
I absolutely love this longer format. I can not wait to see how this project turns out. I think the the blue/teal/aqua seats will look killer in that wagon.
I love this old wagon so much. Gorgeous. The longer format videos suit me perfectly. I nearly hooted when I saw the run time. Your content is top tier.
That said, the thing that got me most in this video is that you're doing all this to take Jess to see the ocean for the first time. How do you make magic happen in your life? This. This is how.
Yet another reason I appreciate you, Dalton. I'm so happy that you decided to try the RUclips thing. Keep living that amazing life, brother. You've absolutely got this.
You build it we will watch.
Absolutely you are on my bucket list. Spending a day or two working on one of those treasures.
I really need to learn the art of the self tapper.
Love the longer format videos. Especially love seeing a car come from basket case to something cool and one-off.
I can't wait to see more of this, i love when you do more than 1 video on your builds. You and VGG are my favorite channels to just sit and relax to after work.
This project really is the sweet spot of caring enough to make it a good car but also getting it done on a budget and in good time! Can't wait for the next episode! It's great to see an abandoned car getting its soul back :)
This is a great project you are building. I hope that you are able to complete this build and have a fun adventure and a safe trip to Galveston Texas Beach. It will be a whole lot of fun watching this. You have a ton of power to play with as well. All you need is to make the wagon as reliable and safe as possible. SEATBELTS! I live in the Philippines and there is not any automotive building here that I have seen. So I look forward to your RUclips show. Keep is real and Keep it safe. The hardest part will be feeding the beast of a engine that you chose for it!
Thought of you the other day as I self-tappered a bearing plate to the OUTSIDE of the top of a shock tower.
Don’t worry…it’s a Derby Car. And then just for good measure I shot half a roll of weld at the whole thing, an entire tube of epoxy, and even some spray foam.
Hurt my back and haven't been able to wrench in over a week. Missing it. This gives me a lot of motivation to finish my current project. Almost done now! After I think I want to try something older and more budget friendly like this.
Yeah,, definitely the kind of you tube stuff I watch! I love it when there's a roadtrip at the end.
I agree, the '77 Marquis Brougham was only a donor car. This will be a cool 1960 Ford wagon.
Yea!! Very much love long videos! Love bringing back to life and then a road trip! Love to see maybe nnkh and others do the same and make it like a cannonball run!
I like this new idea of format. It's cool seeing how experienced you are and skip steps or do something half assed cause you know how to do it right, but actually seeing you do service to a good ol wagon is cool
Somethings you must do correctly, others... Eh
Looking forward to seeing the continued adventures of the Wagon
