- Derek finds a 1964 Ford Galaxie that's sat abandoned and hasn't run in 32 years. Getting this old sled running will be enough of a challenge, but Derek also plans to transform this Ford into a rally-tribute car and slide it around the back roads of Michigan.

This was a really fun build!
Ya, but I thought you moved down south to avoid the white stuff! That chrome valve cover will getcha home....nope. Home built Blue Bottle exhaust I see.
when can we see the rest of this story its very interesting
with i could have heard that thing i bet is sounded real sweet
sorry to see this great revival beeing crunched into 19 minutes...looking forward to an "editor's cut "
its from his tv show you probably wont get the whole episode on youtube @@Kamphausen
Hate how these episodes are so short. Always leaves me wanting more!
Yeah. That's the point. They want you to pony up for their premium service. Honestly though it's pretty cheap, and there's lots of good content.
Totally agree. SMH
They are short because they are from the Motor Trend channel. They are teasers to get you to subscribe to the Motor Trend streaming service. I believe that the only full episode on RUclips is episode 1 with the Mustang.
hey do it on purpose so youll subscipe to motortend and your right want more and that sucks
Go watch Vice Grip Garage! Tons of this stuff in long form.
I would of loved to have seen this as a full Vice Grip Garage episode
Hats off to the guy bringing up the engine.
I feel like it's a waste having Derek do a revival but only showing 20 mins of it. Maybe the intended audience is folks that wouldn't watch VGG but it sure would be nice to have the 20 min version and the "full" version ( not the hours and hours of raw footage obviously so I guess they would need to put in a bit of editing work still )
I have absolutely no idea how you find time to do these " outside your channel" builds. You are an amazing man Derek. Truely outstanding. Billy J.... Australia.
I agree, but he sure seems to have fun doing so! Better than working the 9 - 5 jobs for sure!
So glad Derrick got a main stream show.Give this man a raise
I really hope the full episode goes on the VGG channel. This is one I want to see in its entirety
You'll have to subscribe to Motor Trend to see the full video, "Roadworthy Rescues" is a whole separate thing from "Vice Grip Garage".
Yip, the grift is strong
There not going to let him put it on there his channel.
The VGG channel is much more interesting. There is a lot missing here.
@@gordonwelcher9598 know kinding you can only see the hole version on motor trend lol.he can't show it on his channel he doesn't have the rights to it.
I need an hour of this...
Derek I sure hope you continue filming this project . I remember as youngster when that car came out. Back in the day myself and friends could name and date every new car that was produced. Gosh how I loved those days. They were just beautiful. Thanks for sharing. 🇺🇸👍. Artie

My oldest brother was like that, no matter what car it was he knew what it was with details. Sadly he passed away, the car community lost a great one there! He was also the "Clutch Man" for Don Prudhomme "The Snake" from the great Snake vs Mongoose days!!! Wish he was still here to help me set up a small tire no prep car!
Wait what, when's the next episode on this one? I feel like I got all worked up and she left!!
Love the Galaxie. One of the best looking full size cars of the 60's...and there were many good looking full size cars back then. Look forward to seeing it run.
I've always wanted one of those old Galaxy's 💥💥💥🙌
Derek we bought a classic Mustang yesterday! 1965, my dream car! We are going to fix her up. I love watching your videos, I am helping get her fixed up and I have learned so much from you! Keep on bringing the thunder!
Derek sending it into that snowbank gets the official Canadian seal of approval!
Feller Canadian here...I miss doing the emergency brake u-turns on pure ice. Put me into many a snow bank.
VGG is the best channel .... period\
Awesome, anything VGG makes me happy.
Can't wait for Part 2....
This is my favorite body style love these cars
Me too.
When I watch VGG I have my check list handy so I can keep up with Derrick. #1 Buy car on site, unseen = check #2 Always check trunk first = check #3 Raise the hood and hope the motor will run so he can get it home = check #4 always ignore and pretend all the things you don't want to see isn't there = check # 5 Always travel all the back roads you can possibly find so you wont draw attention to yourself = check
Ignore brakes = Check.
check = that would be #6 I have to update check list I forgot that 1. I need at list 10 items to check
@@LukeTheJoker
@@LukeTheJoker Bring lots of cold snacks = Check
Don't forget to purchase a very specific battery....
@@trainfixer1981 Oh yes! Very important.
Clicked like before even watching. Seen enough to know a guy does a good job with the episodes…just need to be longer (longer the better).
I hope we see more of this build. I'm not a Ford guy but, those 64/65 Galaxie's are an exception. C'mon Derek, don't tease us 😎
I agree, my buddy's mom use to have a '64 Galaxie, with the 390ci engine, and boy it sounded nice!
Dude that is sweet I haven’t seen a sweet looking straight six in years awesome 👍👍😎
Love the old Galaxies. Such a great looking car. Looking forward to seeing it running and on the road.
A part 2 is to follow hopefully.
Well I’ll be dipped! It’s Derek Bieri on motor trend channel! Awesome episode!!
Thank you so much MotorTrend for putting these videos on RUclips. We all really love watching Derek and guys wrench on stuff!!!🇺🇸
@@arts2437 well, you could pay $5 for the whole video...and more. MT didn't have to put these condensed versions on YT at all you know.
Heck yeah that engines looking sweet, my buddies had the 390 4 speed on the floor
MOSES SANDALS, that's a fantastic looking 6er.
Saved history one at a time
Really sweet built Ford 6 with dual fours?! That ‘64 Custom 500 is gonna rock and roll!
Been an auto tech for over 30 years and installed more clutches than I can remember. When he asked, "did that just happen, after everything lined up and the transmission just slipped right in it happy place, that was not scripted. It rarely happens that way. I can probably count on both hands the number of times that happened for me.
Thank you thank you for such a good and clean show that I don't have to worry about watching with my sons
That offy cover is cool! Looked like a fun little thrash build!
Jack the back end up as high as you can to make an easy angle for the assembly
Derick is truly the best. He puts a call out for a 223 and boom, he has one. Power of fan hood
They were great old cars. My sister had a 61 what a beauty it was, a convertible too. This was back in 1970-71
This channel vice grip garage and Carter auto restyling are my favourites awesome work
"I hear bending - keep going." 🤣
Brings back memories my dad drove one like this when I was about 8
That car looks to be in exceptionally nice shape for having been sitting for 32 years.
My family had a 63 galaxie 406 tri-power four-speed. They had huge trunks!
I love the way you teach the next generation that these old cars are not that scary to bring back to life so they can live on and look cool ... keep on trucking Derrick...😁👍🇦🇺
"I hear bending, keep going" Yup sounds right!
JB weld is just fine for repairing engine blocks 😊
And in a pinch it taste like old beef jerky
A beautiful body on this coupe. All these older cars need to be back on the road. Moving history. Cheers from Australia.
What a great find I love 60's fords. My parents bought a used 64 galaxy wagon in 65 or 66. I have 3 brothers so it was way better than the falcon sedan that we were in. Later they bought a 68 country squire what a beautiful car, and the 64 became dads pickup. It worked really well because everything in the back was steel. I also built a big straight 6. It was a Chevy 292. I put 10 to 1 pistons, an hp cam, offenhouser intake with a holly 600 and Clifford split manifold headers. In would do high 13's in a 67 short narrow pickup. You can get some assume low end torque out these long stroke engines. This car needs to be built it's beautiful.
My first car was a 1964 Galaxie 500 station wagon with the fake wood and everything. I bought it from a co-worker of my mother's, for $200, in 1975. It was a real sleeper - someone had ordered it with the 352 V-8, 4-barrel carb, dual exhaust. A heavy sled, but it would leap at stoplights when I put my foot in!
I had a lot of fun with that car... but only for a year... 17yo me learned a hard lesson that balding tires, heavy rain, and speed don't mix. No one got hurt thankfully, but I did shed a tear for the car.
Wouldn't say no. A guy appreciates your efforts!
More please. It ended like when the water stops spraying at the carwash but I can still see soap.😂
And another satisfying video from VGG!
Derek. I love watching what you do .....keep up the good work . Aloha BRUDDA?!
Love the overalls that match the engine block paint. Brilliant. Mike in Oz
A trick to shoehorning those long straight, six engines in is jacking the back of the car up higher than the front it helps it slide in
Truth
I really like this car!
Loved the paint and clean up. Nice change to the channel. That car deserved the effort.
This isn't his channel 😂😂. This is motor trends content.he does a show for them.
i do love to see dual webbers on a build , i think its a sign of age
Can't wait to see the other half!!! I'm going to lose sleep waiting..........yep........
I love Derek's Vocab its perfect
I know that you new it was a Custom, not a Galaxie, but it brings a nice memory-my Dad always bought the Custom-wen I asked him why he didn't buy the nicer Galaxie, he always said "The chrome and extra options were a waste of money"-thanks Derek!
Holy moly that is A LOT of work crammed into 20 minutes. What a job!
Awesome to see you Steve!
LMAO 😅 when you open the wing window and said hello, for some reason I kept expecting a possum to come out!
It was great working with you and Paul on model A project at MC3 in Detroit a year and a half ago, keep it going Dennis.
Straight 6 looks outstanding
Not once did anyone say "Will it run and drive" . Great job, can't wait to see the finished product!
Hey feller, glad to see you made it to my neck of the woods
Super awesome purchase
Derek love all your videos, I'm 70 and now thanks to you I have to many projects,lol still going to take a road trip in my 54, keep it up man
I almost bought a 1964 Galaxy when I was younger, I’ve always loved those cars!
One of America's finest exports= Derek Bieri AKA Vicegripgarage
Now, we need to see it fly down the road. The body is straight with no apparent rust.
It's lookin' real good!
Lovely watch and a great build!
Did Derek say, “flying across the state to have the drive shaft shortened”? Yes, definitely can relate to that.
I like this vid but I honestly miss seeing it drive out of the shop. Kudos Derek
Awesome content
Happy Saturday realy a great car to start with I love those old fords i had a few
Hi, Derek, It's been a long time since I've been on your site. I hope you and your whole family had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I've spent a lot of time in Michigan, (Detroit {ugh}, Grayling {yeah} and some in the good old UP {especially great for snowmobiling} and you've picked the best time of the year for that. God Bless and stay safe (and warm).⛄
This car was my first. I miss it so much. Gl with it.
I really love these,with a little love and a LOT of money 💰 this will make a great car.
Good job, guys, keep em coming.
One of my first cars was a blue 64 galaxy 289 4 speed. Brings back a lot of good memories.
The Jetta looks pretty cool all jacked up with big wheels n tyres.
Still remember sliding around the back seat of a Galaxie 500 with a 390 in my childhood.
I still remember sliding around in the back seat in my adulthood if you know what I mean. Gord Ontario Canada
@@lucilleking7495 Not since college.

Awesome as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Thank you for visiting my neck of the woods, hopefully you enjoyed the little snow we have.
I would love to have a 64 ford. My favorite year that ford made.
Glad this is available to watch for folks without an MT+ subscription (but of course I have one)
Looking forward to seeing the rest of this
this car deserves it's own 2 hour episode. i'm 100% an olds guy. but, 63-64 fords are right up there!
Looking forward to seeing the next release. Would like to hear it run.
