Is it just me or is the sound delayed like 2 seconds. Noticed it when he was talking about the glass and going through the trunk.
The Packard deserves to be restored. I’d pass on the Cordoba.
checks background tasks to make sure Red dead redemption did not launch.
I think you re-uploaded and it got audio desynchronized
This video saved my life. Literally. My buddy wanted me to go for a cruise and I decided against going bc I needed to watch the video. He was t-boned by someone in a dump truck on passenger side. Nobody would have survived in that seat. My seat. Thanks Derek...truly love the channel. Btw, friend is ok...at hospital w broken leg and concussion. Thanks again
Anyone have problems iwith audio matching the video? It's driving me insane lol
The sound is too far out of sync from halfway through the ad. unwatchable.
Hey guys is the audio timing off for anyone else
When you showed the battery and said “It’s 6v” I thought! “ Nope. 8v. 4 cells at 2v per cell.” Common trick on old farm tractors too. The old generators just didn’t put out much juice. 8v battery on a 6v system was a little extra insurance so you could still crank her over on a chilly morning.
Came for Derek. Stayed for the car. Liked for the black kitty <3
I don’t even mind that you’re bringing the rigs to your spot first to work on em. It would be nice to see those big harrowing road trips every once in a while, but a feller understands the need to diversify and spend your time on family and the greater career. I may have came for the revivals a while back but I stayed for who you are Derek, we love you and I will watch whatever you wanna do. I don’t say this because I’ve seen any specific complaints but you mentioned people asking for more revivals. Keep doing you brother, you’re an inspiration.
Sir:
I would love to have that old Packard, I AM 51 years old ,and my dream is to meet you and work on some of those old cars and trucks with you. I LOVE YOUR channel. I have been a back yard mechanic all my life. I am from Athens, Ohio your channels are the greatest. GOD BLESS TO YOU ALL, and keep up the amazing work you do.
It's a three speed with overdrive, that canister with the unhooked wires is the governor for the overdrive, there should also be a solenoid mounted on the other side and then you should also have a relay mounted on the firewall and a switch mounted under the gas pedal. Ford used the same setup throughout the 50's and 60's. You can bypass all of that with just a toggle switch mounted somewhere easily accessible, like on the shifter. If you do that it gives you first second and third, and then use the switch in each gear and it'll turn it into a 6 speed. The cable should be ran to a handle under the dash.
I don't see people commenting on how Derek loves to do all these charities just as much as he does wrenching on cars. Genuine car guy. Thanks for what you do.
I noticed the 8 volt battery! (4 vent caps) that was a way to make engine spin faster for those cold mornings. The voltage regulator could be tweaked for a 9 or 10 volt out put... so cool!
Oooooh, Borg Warner 3 speed manual with overdrive! At
"There's a few things that don't lie: kids, yoga pants, and headliners..." Honestly Derek you are GOLD coming up with stuff like this 😀
Hi Derek. Well, watching you do what you do, if I am being honest, has always been very entertaining and educational. But in this episode, you went to town, and I mean you really went to town in this episode when you played "Piscataquis Blues" in the background while driving the Packard and showing us the road exactly how you see it. Man, you are awesome!!! Thank you, Sir, and please never stop doing what you are doing cause you are very good at it!!!!
I'm usually of the mindset of if it came with a carb, keep the carb. That stays in the spirit of the car. But on this one, I'd be really fascinated to see what kind of Sniper or similar would work for this rig. If it puts the car back on the road instead of rotting, I'm a fan!
