- I've been asked the same few questions over and over in the last couple years.
Where do I find my cars?
How much do I pay for my cars?
What to look for in a classic car
So here is a quick video that breaks down a few different project cars in all different skill and price levels. I go over everything from a complete entry level car all the way up to a absolute basket case. Be honest with yourself and skill level. Trust me it will make the process much much easier.

no way...its more about connections .....down in the states....multiply by 3
and facebook has gotten high as hell!
and its worse if your black!
Great advice. Skill level and budget. Less skill the bigger the budget needed.
No truer words have been spoken.
Why did I just hear the crazed Irishman from Braveheart tell me "The good lord says yer fooked laddie!"

You put it to words, very well, Dan. One thing people NEED to understand.... their first few projects when just starting out, WILL be over your head, cost you 2-3 times as much as they should, and take 3-4 times longer then they should. After you tool up, screw up stuff, and essentially get educated the hard way, then things will start moving along at the pace you sorta feel they should. Its called "a learning curve", and we have ALL been through it. We've all bought roaches and taken a bath on them, we've all been that guy that had to sell off projects that went over our head or budget, we've all thrown money hand over fist into the endless pit known a "the project" in hopes of completion. Success in the hobby goes with sticking to it and never stop learning, but also knowing when to quit while you're still ahead!
Haha exactly
Personally I blame squirrels
I blame the man in the big yellow hat.😉😂😂
I'm confused. The Gremlin was absolute garbage when it was brand new! The Pacer and the long hood Matador were the only cars (slightly) more offensive to look at.
Hi Dan. Lots of people now know how to replace Floorpans, because you showed us how. Thanks. Some more old cars will be saved because of your vids.. That's AWSOME!
Amen dude 👍👍👍👍👍
Don't sell yourself short on how valuable your time is. Time is very valuable, something you can never get back. I 100% agree, buy what you have the skill set, knowledge and equipment for.
and don't be afraid to buy a "Less Desireable" car than what you want, everyone wants a 72 Chevelle but for half the money of a 72 Chevelle roller you can buy a 73-77 Chevelle that's running and driving that just needs some love. Especially for your first build.
A guy has to realize his skill level before buying a project car. And do you have room to work on it . Next, very important, money.
I dont over think those things haha
I've ended up buying cars I didn't have at the time I acquired a project car, and put money in to fixing the cars I didn't have the money to spend, and turn around and sell them.. and use that money for funding your project car,I've seen that happening alot..
I build and sell trade hot rods. I'm 63 and have always done it. I guess it is my therapy. Sometimes I trade before it's done just to start another build. Present time I'm building a 81 notchback mustang .its got a built 355 sbc in it with a built trans. Gonna drive it a little than probably get rid of it. No more after this. ( just in case my wife is reading this).
Could've used this advice before I bought and sold my '53 Ford, just don't let the wife know she was right 😂
My wife reminds me of that all the time LOL
Haha never admit fault
@@DDSpeedShop HaHa, I wouldn’t have to,There is no changing her mind LOL
Canada goose aka "Sky Carp" down in these parts
For me, it needs to be structurally intact, with minimal rust and body damage. I'm just not into body work. It can have any kind of mechanical issues, but parts must be available. That means it has to be a popular make, model, and year that reproduction parts are being made for. Give me a good solid body, and I can build a car out of it if I can get the parts. Of course, that could prove to be very expensive, depending on what parts you need, how plentiful they are, and whether you can get them used. Small block Chevy engines and parts (and I mean the real thing, not an LS) pretty much grow on trees. Trying to find body parts or glass for a 1972 Pinto wagon is impossible.
G'DAY Dan,I Would recommend the wisdom of learning the difference between a car and a boat? As always Kindest Regards Dave McLaughlin Queensland Australia
Hacks, butchers, flippers, bullshit shops, etc are going to ruin this beautiful hobby.
Bottom line is, When working on these old cars you have to have patience, lots of free time and extremely deep pocket$!🤑 I am myself, in my younger days is one of those guys that had a Dan show up to buy a dream car project from me. Don’t ever take on a project that you can’t afford to do because you’ll just end up disappointed, frustrated and with less money than you started with. And yes, your wife will remind you regularly that she was right and you were wrong 😑
I've bought cars from guys who thought they wanted a muscle car, but didn't want to do the work instead of watching TV or whatever. I'll have it running and driving in a few days to a few months if its intended for me to drive. The more you can do yourself, the less it will cost you to build it. People don't stay motivated, they look at the whole project rather than look at it as systems or sections that need done, and they get discouraged. Having a spouse that gives you grief over doing the work or buying it will sap your motivation real fast.
If someone is unwilling to learn how to do it the correct way, or even the good enough way, they shouldn't get a project vehicle.
@@SweatyFatGuy Couldn’t agree with you more. Big difference between wanting to do and able to do. My buddies and I Started working on cars when we realized that first important rule. So after I got my butt burned a couple of times I realized that that’s what I had to do. Graduated from high school in 1974 and the oil embargo was going on. People were trading in there big block Chevelle‘s Camaro’s for Chevettes and citations lol. We were able to buy muscle cars for next to nothing compared to what you pay now. Mustangs, big block Mopar’s ,Pontiac’s Camaros, Chevelle’s could all be bought on the cheap. Those were the day as far as cars go. How many 69 302 4 speedcamaro’s for $2500.00 would you like? That particular car was a Divorce special! Only had 38,000 and change on the odometer Cortez silver black interior. I could go on and on😀
@@wreckedrebuild2142 in 1985 I missed out on a 69 RA IV 4 speed judge for $1200. I was only 16, and dad said it would never be worth more than $2500, so it wasn't worth it to fix it up. He fixed my brother's70 Charger when he wrecked it, but wouldn't help me out with the Judge.
Could have gotten a 71 Judge with the 455 HO and M22 in it for $4500 in 87, got my 10th Anniversary TA instead for $2500.
I've missed out on a bunch, but have gotten others.. man I wish I had that judge, it would probably be one of only two cars I own today if I had gotten it.
@@SweatyFatGuy Yeah, that would’ve been a keeper for sure. I wanted to buy that 69 Camaro. Unfortunately I had just purchased a motorcycle or a little more than the price of the Camaro. The bank said no of course. ☹️
I've owned nearly 40 cars and trucks and still haven't learned to follow the great advice in this video...oh well, ignorance is a fantastic way to get good at welding rusty obsolete vehicles back together!
Haha I don't follow my own advice either
Chip in to get your buddy a gravel lot to park those cars on...looks like a fire risk with all that dry grass around there.
It's only been on fire once, it'll be fine
I don't care where you got the cars. But in which glovebox did you find those sunglasses?!?
Special order man haha
There aint no $300 56 2 doors in the U.S. I am starting to think Canadia is a car paradise, from watching you and Cold War Motors
Canada is far from Paradise here in Ontario there is rusty square bodies going for 7200 to 8500 and 9 grand and there are Tri 5 Chevys like the one Dan is showing here for like 7500 bucks it's just super crazy, getting anything for a 1000 bucks anymore is impossible not unless you get super lucky and the person is hurting for money and desperate to sell, but ya it's a real "Hit or Miss" Era we are living in
Ontario is stupid expensive for cars as the rust eats them away.
@@thebigpicture2032 Right!! exactly!
Project cars may be cheap in certain areas of Canada, but that cheap project costs 2-3 times more to restore than it would in the states. It's not uncommon to spend more on shipping than the new parts are worth. We have to get pretty creative up here to build a "budget" car.
Western Canada, like Alberta & Saskatewan maybe. Still, with the salt & snow, many in the rest of Canada are basket cases. Both Dan @ DD & Scott @ Cold War do have a lot of connections, so lots of the good stuff does come to them.
Another Murfect polish candidate on the black and white 57!
First think you really need to do when getting in to the hobby is HAVE A GARAGE FIRST THEN WORRY ABOUT WHAT DAN SAID
Iv done lots in a driveway
@@DDSpeedShop many years workin on a gravel driveway it sucks
Thanks for sharing your friend Rob from B.C 🇨🇦
The 57 150 would make a killer black widow 57 clone Dan its already black and white too.
Ooooooh....he is right though ya know !!
The Challenger is definitely an Uncle Tony mobile complete with dents and history.
man them canadian chickens are loud when they fly over
That 56 would fetch over $500 at the junkyard today here in NY 15 cents /lb its high I keep saying! $150 per 1000lbs with engine and trans. would get $525 + at around 3500 lbs. Many old yards are sending cars to the crusher and cashing in now especially because of the high prices. Its sad and good in away they are rusting away to nothing which is worse in my book as the owner oldtimers sadly pass on who built these yards for many years. Popularity for these old cars wanes with time too as most could care less .. thats life!.......Glenn
Great Advice... But you forget to tell them that you have a Sickness... Ha ha!... You can't stop buying them.
Oya I'm a full blown addict baba
about 15 years ago i bought floor pans for my 57, they were 1200, how much do you get them for in canada?
Wow. Boight the same her now
Love to take that Challenger as is and modernize/update it a bit for a streetcar.
It looks like its in a bit too nice of shape for what I have in mind though, a factory frame has zero to do with that vision. =)
Build up to that point might take a couple years though...
in 1978 my cousin bought a 1936 auburn cord boatail speedster the stainless trim around the windshield in 1978 was $1000. shiny shit costs big bucks.
Wow!
I like the '56 two door post, and the '57 would make a good black widow clone, down to the truck axle and six bolt wheels if you do the two door conversion.
Do true
I think the first thing you need to decide is if you are trying to do some work and flip it for a profit or to build the car/truck and keep the thing. There is a big difference in the money spent at that point.
Remind me not to buy a flip car from you.
@@mikeobrien3744 you're not going to dump 10k plus into a car or truck you're going to flip. You're going to get it running and sell it.
@@kuhndog-1196True. I have seen too many liars and idiots. Looks like your not one of them. Cheers
Got my 79 camaro for 1k. Needed patch job on the floor but it was pretty solid. Rear quarters are solid but lots of bondo. Rust on the rockers and fenders and under the corners of the front windshield. Running on 7 cylinders but running and driving none the less. 305/th350 combo.
My 85 ram shortbed i got for 3k minty fresh interior and solid body with no rust. 318/a904 trans. That one just needed a few bulbs and a new fusable link. Its my new daily 😎
Good video on buying cars you should get into car sales.😁
Love the videos.
By any chance is that fishing boat for sale.
Excellent video and great advice!! AMC Gremlin, sweet!! Cheers!!
Thanks for your advice👍🏻. Great points you made. Hoping to find a shoebox roller or 53 Customline for my next project someday.
Field of Dreams 👍
when you go to work do you work on car
I think trucks are always a good starting platform but they are going up in price a bit.
I paid 1700 us for my 57 fairlane 100% complete. I’ve done fuel system, breaking system, cooling system, got the engine going after sitting for fifty some odd years still needs a lot but like you said it was a good starting point car for sure.👍🏻
Nice profit to be had on the 56 as it sits
Would love to see that 57 go on the chopping block for future Dan another tri-5 project
Great video on your thoughts on buying the cars to rebuild. And it is just great to see all the projects that are in the wings 🙌
that Ford hood looks like a '50
There's the squeak!
Danielle does a superb job of filming. Nice video, explains a plenty.
I found everything said to be absolute truth as I have done these too, just older as I'm older... like 73 so there's that. When kids go shopping, they look for specific cars and to me a poor way as so many other cars have potential to be real nice once fixed and maybe tradeable for the absolute one that you wanted in first place. Some people only build one car in their lives and to me what a waste of talent if they show it in even just one car. I never finished my first rig on account of it was way way worse than I knew... the guy knew he had a rookie and still did it to me for a large portion of the savings gone, it was hard to go further. Fixing is easy but money just doesn't fall from trees. I got the next one in a will and was wondering if I could fix it right as it even drove home. So not looking at all, come out of some business and see a older rig at the front door of the place and a fellow putting the best offer in the window. Small talk turned into a well if I had that kind of money yada yada, and finally he said, I will take it over to your place and hold title till we agree on the price. Kid (me) says ok and gets home to find dad and mom screaming at me this isn't a wrecking yard (could of fooled me) but its looking like have to give it back and get folks off me ass and the guy just hands me title and says deal with it so its a hide at a friends house..... be careful picking friends just saying as that is another tale of this ain't no shit!! I did finish all of them but that first one went to the scrap heap with a lot of wasted hours and money. I sure hope the money comes for you two kids as I can't think of more deserving
Can you two-door that '49 Ford 4-door like you did the '57 Chev❓That would look sweeeeet❗😁👍✌🇺🇸
I'd like to see that happen with the Shoebox 🖒
Nice lookin' project cars!👍
I get asked frequently by the kids at work, well kids to me, They're 20 somethings and I'm 50, about how to get into classic cars because I have several. The first thing I tell them is to find a car you want and then find you similar model and close year, Sure everyone wants a 69 Mustang/71 Challenger/72 Chevelle but 99.9999999999999% of people don't have 69 Mustang/71 Challenger/72 Chevelle money so find you a nice running and driving 73 Mustang/75 Duster/74 Chevelle and take what you like about the car you want into the car you have for a lot less money. One of the kids at work has a 66 Ford Falcon with a strait 6 in it that he daily drives and he's always talking about wanting a Mustang and it took several talks with him about fixing up the Falcon, no the Falcon isn't a Mustang and never will be but a still a really cool car, especially when you already own it and it runs and drives, find you a 302 and rebuild it and put it in there. My main talk s find something whether it rings your bell or not it will grow on you and you'll love it just as much.
Back in the late 1970s and early 1980s you could still get a halfway decent "junk" car (beater) for between $50 to $500!! And it amazed me just how stupid people were back then, because they would rather sell that 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado to the junk yard for $50 then sell it to a kid like me for $300!! And I certainly had the income back then to entertain it! Even though my parents FORBID ME from owning the cars I wanted to own!!
In the mid 1980s to late 1990s bigger idiots arose who thought every car was worth "top dollar" and just because they saw the same car on Barrett Jackson Auto Auction sell for 2.5 million they assumed that there rusted out pile of scrap metal was somehow suddenly worth $19,500 even if it $40,000 in parts and labor just to put it back together and in running condition and on the road!!!
And again I had a wife who FORBID ME from owning the cars I wanted to buy!!
Today things are just as bad!!! And at the age of 56, I am twice divorced, and I have given up on my dreams of owning old cars and a garage!! I live vicariously through people like you, because I missed my youth and I currently don't have an income that supports me much anymore either after I became disabled! Living on just $6500 a year annual gross is hard enough in fact!!! I would basically be homeless had it not been for a friend of mine taking me in!! And the last thing I could ever afford is an old car even though I haven't had a license since 2002 thanks to unfair child support court and laws! So honestly who cares about "buying a classic" because at best it is all a load of crap anymore anyhow!!! And people are totally unrealistic about what their cars are actually worth anymore!!!
That Dodge ,!!! In Sweden.....forget it. Here you need a lot of cash just for a totally rotten americancarwhatever...
Great info brotha!
Shoe box Ford, I like it, 80s GM Intermediates, future collectibles, but many were crushed.
I bought a 1955 Chevy, 210, 4 dr., in 1957. Didn't know anything about cars, 'cause I'd never been around them. That turned out to be a real hotrod. 265 V8, three on the tree, overdriive and 4:11 rearend.
Where is the other challenger? did you sell that one?
it aint nuthin for me to put 3 or 4 thousand $ in a car and sell it for $700 ...
Haha
Dan's used car lot
Hey Dan..... I've been watching your channel ever since I found the '57 4dr to 2dr build (Danni's car). I don't have the experience that you have, and that's ok with me. I have 3 of the same car, Gen1 Scion xB. I'm good with just maintaining them. I wish I was more financially stable to have a old car to build. But I love your channel. It opens my eyes to more cars that I usually would not have an interest in.
Just got my dream 1968 Ford F-250 camper special this is my first restoration will be making videos soon but it needs some patch work but looking forward to learning

I envy what you paid for some of those cars such as the Challenger, the '57 Chevy, and the '56 Chevy. I say that because jokers like Barrett Jackson have influenced vintage cars owners to jack up the prices for their rotted out pieces of shit cars.
Update .....The 56 hood bar, hood bar extensions and grill are available. Not cheap but they are being made.
If you are interested in early Ford information you might want to check out a fellow RUclipsr. The channel is Iron Trap Garage. Matt is in PA and does a lot of work on his early cars and is a very knowledgable, good guy. I am older and have quit a bit of knowledge and ability. I had my own shop for a few years and the things I learn from Iron Trap Garage and DD Speed Shop is invaluable. Keep up the great work, check out other RUclipsrs and have fun.
I wish tri-fives were that cheap down here, you can't buy a basket case 4 door for less than $2500, and parts in general are outrageous
Keep in mind he’s talking Canadian dollars which would be around 750-800 US depending on the exchange.
@@thebigpicture2032 exactly, so our cheap rotted basket case 4 doors would be over 3k CAD, he even bought a 2 door for a little over the equivalent of $200 USD, it's crazy how different the market seems to be.
Wow thats nuts
Priorities; sell them all, save your favourite one an Dani’s favorte one an keep 1 truck an go actually buy a house with nice shop or buy house with property N build a shop .. keep going the way you are you will be still working outa same place for long time to come .. then after you got your place an shop rebuild your line up of cars an such again 👍
If you're over 40 and don't have a fully equipped shop and clear schedule, take out a loan, buy a car and spend your time driving it, enjoying it and polishing the chrome. Otherwise you'll have a project car sitting in the garage with shit piled on it for the next two decades. For the majority of people, turn key car and bank payments are your best bet.
Build the 56 Post, you would do an excellent job on it! I like it better than the wagon, just say’n. Thanks for the videos.
Let's build a car that starts with one end of the car being from the 1920's, and has segments that are from each decade, all the way upto a 2021 front bumper off a brand new car. I know it isnt practical, though its about the challenge really.
Your labor is definitely worth $75 an hour. What makes it even better is your building what you want. 🤘😜🇺🇸
Dude! Are you wearing Queen DDs sun glasses? You got a lot of muscle cars wow. You could put some plastic on the mopar carb so it wont get moisture in the cylinders and rings. Squirt some oil down it.
Always bought cars that ran n had all the bumpers n lights. Should have paid more attention to interiors. Complete Interior door panels n headliners are available, 72 Nova. But front seats are hard to find.
Dan why don’t you build the 56 coupe as a flip/money maker? Put the trim you have on it...slap an LS and modern trans under it and sell it to someone who wants a reliable driver restomod but does not have the skills or bucks to buy a pretty one. You have done a lot of the difficult and costly body work.
Build a two-door Chevy II wagon.. (a Pontiac Acadian wagon would be even better)
Truth!
Mate you should see what those cars go for in Australia. You would be shocked. But I agree with everything you say..
Love to see the 49 in your hands
You seem to be staled at 64k subs,whats up with that? maybe you need to do some fire burnouts or maybe a live human sacrifice. ether way love your channel.
Best advice is too look for a car that has been untouched, not owned by a HACK. Much harder to fix things that weren’t done right the first time.
Buying a car in full primer is like picking up a chick in a bar that has too much makeup on. You won’t like what’s hiding underneath.
Dan, you have enough cars that are in different stages, that if you sold some of them off you would have plenty of money for a house with a nice shop. Look on eBay and see what they get for ratty tri 5’s and Dodge muscle cars in the shape yours are in. Love the videos, say Hi to Mur.
Good stuff Dan, you hit all the major points! My only recommendations: Do the car you won't fall out of love in and what a lot of You Tube guys seem to do, don't have too many projects. Try to focus on getting one done (at least running an driving) before the next. It robs funds from getting it done and another car always pops up later. I have always tried to have one to drive and one to work on. If you get a good deal and plan on flipping it, good, just don't rip it apart (a whole car sells better than one taken apart).
I agree but the "Don't do a car you won't fall out of love with" and I'll flip around and say "Don't don't be afraid to get your not instantly in love with because it will grow on you if it's within your budget". Everyone wants a 69 Mustang Boss 302 and 72 Chevelle, but not many have 69 Boss 30272 Chevelle money...... You may only have 75 Thunderbird/ 74 Chevelle money so buy the 75 Thunderbird/74 Chevelle because it's usually half the price if not cheaper than 1/2 the price but it's more often than not still running and driving or not far from it, and it will grow on you and you'll love it just as much as the 69 Boss/72 Chevelle. Especially if it's your first one, get what you can afford to start out with.
forget about seats here they want 8--900 bucks for a ratty front bench seat for a 2 door tri 5 here bench seat for a 68 69 roadrunner or pair of buckets that are border line usable are 6----1200 bucks and need complete restored at that price
that 57 150 is the perfect 2 door conversion, just thinking out loud lol
There is nothing wrong with 4 doors.
@@rockettcustoms6266 And they'll drive just as many miles as a 2 door. Ha ha!
Yep. He has done it before.
@@jeffryblackmon4846 thank you! If anything they are more practical, I've never understood why people hate 4 doors, its a Bel air not a GTO
@@Beandiptheredneck You're so right. They sell for less (good for us) and look the same from the front or the rear. I've had a lot of 4 doors, a Fairmont, a Ford wagon, an Oldsmobile, 55 Chev I bought just before I left for the USAF and sold it. Dumb move! It was a 6 with a PowerGlide and ran well. And my 2015 Jeep Renegade is a 4 door. My 57 Olds 98 Chrome Ship was also a 4 door.....I think. Wish I had taken a photo of it!
Well no one is paying me to watch youtube. So to the guys saying you'll never get your labor out, there is much worse ways to spend your evening then building hot rods for fun.
Dan, what is the price you’re thinking on the 56? A lot of your work into it. Just curious.
Gremlin is just a Jeep Cherokee with a different body 😝
Probably could turn profit on the 56 post. Leave the engine you don't want and let it go.
You ain't getting that '57 for $1000 where I am more like $1500 to $3500
If Dani wants a Gremlin, start placing ads and looking in Arizona. Y'all just might get lucky.
I'm guessing this guy has a Gremlin for sale in Arizona.
@@user-ge2qn6gp4o nope, not me, I've seen a couple around, that's all.
The closed border is kinda killing us right now
There used to be a couple Gremlins that cruised around the Peg, but haven't seen em in years.
Dan you’d look cool driving around in the challenger with hiway star blaring as your cruising in town
Most gremlin automatics are Mopar trans so the 904 from the satellite may fit.
Hey Dan
Appreciate you
Take care of Yourself🙂
Dude keep that 2 door ppist 56...
Be sweet hot rod to trailer behind the tour wagon.
Man I was hopin for long wagon , or clone roadrunner 440 is in car . We’re ready Dan and Dani get on him lol
At 25, finally saved up enough to get my very own ‘67 Mustang hardtop. 8 grand with a 289 hipo V8. Replaced some easy parts- radiator, fuel pump, thermostat, and installed electric fan. Rebuilt tranny. Runs very well. Tackling rust next. Floor is destroyed and needs to be replaced. I don’t see any penetrative rust, but I’m still a little worried for the sticker shock.
My budget is pretty high, but I’m hoping a decent (NOT complete restore) repair of the rust doesn’t cross 5/6 grand.
For the 5 window check out Iron Trap Garage channel.
I helped a buddy pick up a lil project you woulda liked last weekend...55' olds 88 holiday coupe 4 dr hardtop. Extremely complete and very solid. Motor blew up in 1968 and hasn't seen the road since. The price was right ($600). Gonna be a great project for him. I'm sure I'll be helping alot. Hopefully he watched your videos and gets some pointers.
I just picked up a 55 Olds 88 2dr. hardtop for $600.; 100% there but has sat for 30 years or more I will try to get it running, with the engine that is in it, a 324 cu.in. all original complete car
Always will be my dream car 57 chevy I want to be buried in one 😎
Great video Dan, very informative, which I really enjoyed. At first I thought you were crazy, when you were saying you would rather have a 56 wagon over 56 2 door. But then you reminded me that you already have your cool 55 2dr and Dani's cool 57 2dr. And then I realized that the wagon made more sense, especially because you want to be able to take your dogs with you sometimes. I would really love to own a tri-5 sedan delivery someday. Not just because I like the way they look, but I could also use it to haul materials home from Home Depot. So it would look good and serve a purpose. btw. I may have already told you this. But my 1st 57 Chevy, was a 2dr 150 model (Gasser look) I say Gasser (LOOK) only, because the previous owner had put the cheap 3" ball joint spacers in the front end. So it sat and rode kind of like a Gasser, but that was about it. Thanks for entertaining us. Looking forward to the next one.
Yeah the 56 2door is super cool. Ut how many does a guy need haha
