We spent the last 30 days transforming this 1964 Chevy II into a wicked drag and drive gasser. The stock front suspension was axed for a Speedway bolt on front axle kit. The stock 6 cylinder was yanked out and replaced with a rowdy, solid lifter, tunnel rammed 327. Out back a Ford 9 inch replaced the weak factory rear end.
The last nut and bolt went into this car the night before I headed out on my drive to Biloxi Mississippi for a HUGE car show called "Cruisin The Coast".
Hanging out with my buddies and a bunch of hotrods on the beach? Sounds like a good time to me!
Do we make it? trouble free? well..... sorta

You guys should move to the United States, love to have you guys here, we love hot rods....❤

@GeneFever 9 месяцев назад

The gasser did great on that run and Dan's right a solid cooling system goes a long way to ensure that. Happy Birthday Dani!🎂

@jeffmooers2174 9 месяцев назад

Congrats on the successful build! I put NovaPriced over the awesome Speedway Wicked Nova project because you build solo, at your home, in your spare time, with limited funding. Much respect. Enjoy Biloxi and all those shiny cars, you earned it!

@cobyburrow9339 9 месяцев назад

Nova performed awesome. It is a cool ride for sure.

@loose-arrow-garage 9 месяцев назад

You're right Dan, the thumbs up somehow make it all worth it. I get thumbs up and positive comments on my classics everywhere I go and it sure puts a smile on my face! BTW a big thumbs up on Nova Priced!!

@ShadeTreeJay 9 месяцев назад

@-Mike-69 9 месяцев назад

It needs a pro mod hood scoop. Everything needs a hood scoop. You know that Dan. Those are your words.

@christinar7864 9 месяцев назад

Love it!!! Had a 63 Chevy II in 1975. Great car

@johnchambers12 9 месяцев назад

Got to love Dani’s sense of humor❤❤

@russellfuchs7903 9 месяцев назад

Watching this I decided I'm going to do a gasser! I don't have car, I don't have the contacts and don't have a clue. On second thought I'll just stick to living vicariously through you two.😂😂

@DDSpeedShop 9 месяцев назад

Haha cmon! Get out there and build one

@ronnieadams2079 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for taking us with you on your trip. I'm sure you did get a lot of👍. The car did great, as I expected.

@lethargicmotorsport2025 9 месяцев назад

Working on a 50+ year old car in a parking lot ! “Good luck “ would be a normal greeting.

@camaroacrossamerica7266 9 месяцев назад

People just don't get that there cars!! DRIVE EM. I took my 70 RsCamaro on a 4 month riadtrip across USA in 2017. 39 states 20,000 miles.worst thing had was a starter, CHEVY OF COURSE IT WENT OUT. it's a memory I'll never forget. rained on me lots in fact I spent 3 days crossing Louisiana in it southern rain. windshield leaked so what. I'm unable to travel far now due to health. BUT uour my fave channel on RU-vid. You and Dani. are great. DON'T GET IT PERFECT GET IT DONE. was my motto. just like you guys. keep up the fun.

@johnp1966 9 месяцев назад

I'm planning on hitting cruzin the coast next year, hopefully. Man, people may give you shit about how you do things, but how many of them are driving their shit 1700 miles untested? Keep on keeping on man!

@DDSpeedShop 9 месяцев назад

Build em and drive em!

@ThomasThomas-wn3km 9 месяцев назад

You mentioned an Audi or an Escalade. Well yeah, less comfortable, but that gasser is 10 times cooler. Happy Birthday Dani!

@patricksperformance2203 9 месяцев назад

Congrats you guys!! Tearing up the road in a classic gasser. Does it get any better?!

@DDSpeedShop 9 месяцев назад

It was a pretty good time.

@catman19 9 месяцев назад

Should turn the scoop around in the rain. Wet paper filters can fall apart or make carbs run rich when wet

@hanknipper3921 9 месяцев назад

You make it look too easy Dan! Great job on the Nova have a great time in Biloxi

@DDSpeedShop 9 месяцев назад

It was a pile of work haha

@williampage0214 9 месяцев назад

Dan you are turning into a rock star. Happy Happy Happy birthday Dani

@ronniepate4315 9 месяцев назад

That little nova is road worthy for sure and looks cool doing it . Great video and Happy Birthday Dani .

@boostedtoylet7779 9 месяцев назад

You are rock star ...those drag and drive events have nothing on you Dan!!

@mikeburnett7028 9 месяцев назад

The nice thing about that scoop is you can turn it around, so with the opening in the back, it keeps ALL the water out of the carbs

@327JohnnySS 9 месяцев назад

@mikeburnett7028 like cowl induction. I have oftentimes wondered about the pros and cons of Ram Air vs Cowl Induction?

@Katifda 9 месяцев назад

WHOA! Dan, you're cruising a 70 mph and that 18 wheeler blew past you, not the America I remember! I'm watching you from Tahiti, I love watching you thrash, and especially the road trips, ...believe me, white sand beaches, coconut palms and the blue lagoon gets boring very quick..., stay safe.

@JD2571 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing the ride Dan! Brings back memories of driving from New England to Texas over 40 years ago in a 73 Plymouth Duster!

@frankiegreenhaw6232 9 месяцев назад

😂🤣😂🤣 THE PINK SUITE CASE 🤣!!!!

Be safe you two. That car is just awesome. I hope to run into you all Saturday on the coast. My trip got cut short so only going to be there Friday night and Saturday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANI 🎊🎉🎂Great video. 👍😎✌️

@stomper2582 9 месяцев назад

If you put a DD speed shop sticker on the scratch on Dani’s new birthday air/bug collector, she will not notice the scratches. Thanks for sharing, Dan. 👍🇺🇸

@jasonbose3507 9 месяцев назад

Thanks Dan for the journey footage, very appreciated 👍. Also, the '64 sounds good, looks good, and runs good, an awesome vintage race car for sure! I even like your '64 better than your friends gasser, GREAT JOB DAN on this gem!!! Thanks for the video 📸.

@stevenwing2370 9 месяцев назад

I've driven my 55 Chevy gasser on 2 rocky mountain race weeks. They're a blast to drive. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. Can't wait to see some cruising the coast highlights.

@garysells4259 9 месяцев назад

You should turn the hood scoop around so the rain doesn't get into it as easy

@DDSpeedShop 9 месяцев назад

Yeah I was in a hurry and a little lazy

@leedoss7904 9 месяцев назад

Thats just a cool Ass Hot Rod !! What an Awesome journey.

@StevenAndrews 9 месяцев назад

I sure do love watching your adventures and you've motivated me multiple times to go work on my junk.

@jimfinlaw4537 9 месяцев назад

Thankyou for sharing your journey Dan. The gasser is awesome. Keeping it running cool is the key to successful long trips. Happy Birthday Dani! 🎂🎁🎈 Have a wonderful day!

@hoss1947 9 месяцев назад

Dan, I live down in south Louisiana, I've been to the Mississippi Gulf Coast many times. Have fun, but don't get stupid with the Nova. Those Mississippi cops don't take too kindly to burn outs, and speeding, especially during Crusin The Coast. Y'all have a great time, love your videos.

@raylovins2188 9 месяцев назад

That was cool no problems sweet little hotrod you guys rock

@jeffstephens7958 9 месяцев назад

Good luck Dan love that car be safe have a great trip wish I was going to

@garyinman5400 9 месяцев назад

All in I love that car Don't care what anyone says as long as you are happy you have not paid too much. Those folks are just p**sed they didn't have a chance to get that Nova. Great video of the road trip keep them coming.

@The_Painter31 9 месяцев назад

@Dan You can turn that scoop around for long downpours of rain. Those filters can get soaking wet, be sure to check them.

@rajcam80 9 месяцев назад

Great video, Nova looks and sounds great! Thanks for moving the camera to the drivers side better viewing pleasure!

@docmcneedy5471 9 месяцев назад

Love following your journey. Always looking forward to the next video. I think the people that chew up your time at the fuel stops should pitch in for your gas fill up.😂I would if you pass thru the Minneapolis St.Paul area on way back home. Worth it just to see the Nova in person.

@DDSpeedShop 9 месяцев назад

Hey thanks buddy!

@gregorypoole5648 9 месяцев назад

Hey, Dan: Thanks for posting this...we all really appreciate the effort it takes to do these.Looking forward to the next ones from down south.Also, that was a good jab at Mortske.Hope you and Dani enjoy the rest of the Great Gasser tour...all the best!

@327JohnnySS 9 месяцев назад

Is anyone else wondering why Dani put his stuff in pink luggage? That was too funny yet wt😂

@thelost10mmsocket74 9 месяцев назад

Meh, I knew it would do well but, I didn't know it would do that well Big D. What a machine. 14+mpg at 3krpm basically non-stop for 1800+ miles right out of the box. Hell, there's brand new cars that won't do that w/o an issue somewhere along the road. Here comes the best part of all. You don't need to take it to some dealership, drop your pants, spread the cheeks and grit your teeth when something does finally fail on it. Best of all, you own Nova Priced and you built it. WTG DD Speed Shop, a testimony to what hard work, knowledge and talent can do if you just invest a little time. CONGRATS on a fine work of art. The blower is going to put a LARGE smile on faces and Nova Priced is going to show you what she's been hiding under all that skirt.

@DDSpeedShop 9 месяцев назад

Yeah it worked great!

@garymccord4277 9 месяцев назад

Brave Guy on fresh put together car on such a trip Made great video and a lot of your viewers got to see you on those gas fill ups mini car shows. Glad you share your experience on building and driving these cars. That's what its all about.

Cops love old school hot rods. When I had my 64 Fairlane 500 I never got pulled over for a ticket. I was doing a hundred along side a new challenger and the cop got the challenger. They respect built way over bought.
