A few good ole boys proving that automotive enjoyment can be achieved without deep pocket books. Watch as we show you our projects that are done with a little money and a lot of time.
It’s been so long since I did it I honestly can’t remember exactly, but I most likely stuck them in the freezer for a minute to shrink them a bit and then used a socket that was slightly smaller than the bushing to tap them in place.
@@RacingRejects Alright thanks; I was thinking about buying one of those tool kits that are used to tap the detent bushings in on ZF 5sp transmissions on E36's and seeing if any of those fit for these, but I will try this if that doesn't work.
I know its an old video but I give him props for the old school country boy dirt road rip! I've seen a manual transmission and a V8 on the roads and you definitely have to build up to that level
Your car, truck, whatever your beater…😂😆 That got me, thanks for the video. I’m about to comet wash my old 72 Ranger XLT… I heard Freiburger talk about comet washing old vehicles on roadkill but he never really went into detail about it. Thanks for the video. I bet if you comet washed it and then used a mineral spirits and boiled linseed oil it would look amazing. Check that out if you haven’t. I think it’s 2 parts linseed oil to 1 part mineral spirits.
I did the linseed/spirits thing on my sweptline... Now I googled this video about comet wash to try and get it off, because there's so much sawdust and pollen stuck to it LOL
Me being 60 years old, i know exactly what that car is, as well as all of the cars from the 70s and 80s. Loved those Starions and Conquest and SVO, and Typhoon and Syclones and on and on . How about a Mitsubishi Cordia ? Havent heard that in awhile
It is THE reason why Nissan turbo charged the Supras. The Conquest would walk away from the non turbo Supras and 280/ 300zs. It's not a power monster it just forced other companies to improve on their own products.
Collecting dust. It actually made an appearance on David Newburn’s newest video if you want to see it’s current state. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XWopxVMjmLU.html
Man that’s totally different than the last video… it just makes me miss the 3 I had even more. One was a driver and the other 2 was for parts cause even back in 99 parts was crazy expensive and hard to come by let alone a garage that would even work on it. Hope you jump back into cause that cars an icon
I’ll definitely finish it one day. Right now I’m focused on my e46 M3 and ‘71 Demon, but the Conquest will have its turn soon. Just too many projects and not enough time or funds.
We have a 57 f100 and we are wanting to restore and swap as well. We are new to this. Do you have an email or contact info to ask some questions and get some recommendations?
Hi, you were my inspiration to pick up and restore a 66 Mustang coupe. I don't drive it as much as you do yet but it is my only vehicle, so whenever I need to go places this is it. It took hundreds of hours to get to be safe, mostly because I had to learn how to make extensive rust repairs and made mistakes with the engine rebuild but I don't really have breakdowns either. I am thankful that you shared your experience so we may benefit. Have fun and tear it up on the road if you still have the Cougar.
I second all of your suggestions and comments, and I have found them to be true. I will add that yes, DD'ing classics make you pay much more attention to the road but that also makes the drive more alive and rewarding. I will also add that four-wheel drums can stop and stop well, even coming off the highway. You just can't do it repeatedly.
Looks very nice you’ve done a very good job as far as you’ve been and I’m sure it will be very nice the rest of the way so keep up the good work God bless
Really cool truck!! I think the only things I'd change would be to put air brakes, a pair of nice heated and cooled air ride seats, a train horn and a nice pair of stacks. Nice work.
