I remember when you brought the Caddy home, and we all watched a young man fall in love with that car. Good to see you again, and always fun to see the car.

@ralphhammond8398 Год назад

Hey Ben, enjoyed the caddy video, gonna be a nice ride when it's done. Have a question for you, I just bought a 77 vette 4 speed, 72k, runs great but rear end makes a noise when taking off usually around a corner, I've been told it's the clutch pack in the rear end, have ever heard of that,?....thanks Ralph

@fgb3126 9 месяцев назад

Right. Which is cooler? A young man driving some old 'Vette, or driving a 56 Caddy?

@carguy4658 Год назад

I wasn't worried you would damage your lift; I was worried about the lift dumping the Cadillac! She is a 'Car' Star on RU-vid. Hey Chopstick! Good to see you and your person again.

@robertmills3682 Год назад

I know that the kind of cars you mainly work on is built right into the title of your channel, but I really like it when you work on these old classic cars. I enjoyed every one of the videos on the Cadillac. Thanks for posting this.

@garyb.4080 Год назад

Man that lift is going to save your back big time! Your shop looks to be pretty good size.😊

@gs3504 Год назад

@charlesfrazer1166 Год назад

It's been awhile, Ben. Glad I never gave up on ya! Good to see the doggies and the cars and the new shop. Hope y'all get what ya want!

@xray111xxx Год назад

Love this Caddy. I miss seeing this car. So glad to see it. I like your shop so far. Can't wait for the final reveal.

@joegrazulis2810 Год назад

I'm a big fan of old Cadillacs. I just got a '58 to restore and I finished my '68 during the pandemic. Just remember, the only time an old car like that isn't leaking oil is when it is out of oil!

@anthonymcandrew529 Год назад

Excellent, detailed video (like you always do)! It's great to see the '56 Cadillac doing so well in its preserved state. Definitely looking forward to seeing more content from TCB.

@jerrytate9394 Год назад

Nice to see the 1956 Caddy again. Can't wait until it is painted.

@Aecidius Год назад

Great to have you back Ben

@fgb3126 9 месяцев назад

I've been gone for "a while" Ben. But good to see you're still pluggin' away - now, seemingly on more things than C3 'Vettes. I hear your sincerity when saying that despite the cost, the lift is worth it...LOTS!

@markbaker8004 Год назад

….and Chopstick…. Glad you are posting again. Shop envy!!

@tonikollmann7342 Год назад

Welcome back Ben More of the Cadillac Less Corvette 😊 Best regards from Germany

@HayAuto Год назад

I had an old timer tell me recently that GM always had drip pans under hydros on the showroom floor. I believe it.

@JackBWatkins Год назад

The Caddy is a great car. Good to see that you are keeping it on the road.

@bradrichards6107 Год назад

Good job, Ben. Sometimes our cars force us to spend more time with them when we think something has been fixed. I have been there many times. I remember like yesterday when you brought that Cadillac home.

@dangoodall-williams4200 Год назад

Glad to see a video with you. Look forward to you saving cars and passing them on.

@DonRRicks Год назад

Great video, Ben. Thank you for taking us along on this service. Good to have you back. If you want to have the rear leafs rearched and made like new, Weaver Spring in Dallas is the best. Ask for Robbie and tell him Preacher Don from Midlothian referred you

@eddiebelvedere2400 Год назад

Good to see you back Ben. I usually enjoy seeing the improvements on the Cadillac Looks like an American made lift. Good luck with it. Lifts make life a little easier for the mechanic.

@GoodTimeBikes Год назад

How refreshing to see the Cadillac again! This car may have been what got me to subscribe back when you first got it. Ps it’s always nice when you take us along for a ride too :)

@griviljava Год назад

Ahh! Congrats on the new shop! Always enjoy your vids Corvette Ben, thank you!

@e.z.hernandez6378 Год назад

New shop looks great Ben. Can’t wait for some new C3 action.

@steely_Bob Год назад

Nice shop! You’ve come a long ways. Keep videos coming, especially c3 vettes. Thanks for keeping old rides alive. Good to see the doggies.

@agcacustoms2852 Год назад

First, also I love the caddy. Wish I could have one myself they are truly some of the most beautiful classics.

@mrrepurpose9596 Год назад

This Cadillac is how I found your channel. Over the years you also showed me some other cool stuff. Uhhh, nuf said.

@hitchcock1960 Год назад

Would love to see some drone photography of the Cadillac driving etc… the artistic content it has is significant.

@fleetwin1 Год назад

What a beautiful new shop! Congratulations

@nadz109 Год назад

@tcwascawy1 Год назад

An early Xmas present! Glad you're back and the Cadidallac looks great. Thanx!

@LtCmdrData45 Год назад

The engine looks awesome! I especially like the detailing on the valve covers, and that you kept them overall Old Gold to keep them period-correct. Nicely done!

@asteverino8569 Год назад

Great to see you, Ben. I don't judge about frequency of episodes. For me, it's all gravy. I'm not your boss Anyway, thanks for the practical guide to transmission pan leak repair. The best for you and your family.

@charlesking1244 Год назад

Good Seeing You Back At It Again Ben, Congratulations On The New Shop, Looks Great!! That ‘56 Cadillac’s Such A Beauty, Can’t Wait To See What’s Next..

@brucesahroian1482 Год назад

Love your Caddy!! I just recently sold my '57 Bel Air after driving it daily for over 18 years!! Hated to do that but I just got a '23 Corvette I waited 2 years for!? Take it from me, Never get rid of your car!

@gizzmo5952 Год назад

Welcome back Ben!!! When you get settled, can't wait to see your new shop set up. I'm still working on my 81 vette. I was able to find and buy that turn signal arm with cruise control on it, salvage yard that deals in C3 and C4 parts.

@johndavis1686 Год назад

Good to see you back.

@robertmurphy2794 Год назад

Man I have missed seeing your videos! Can’t wait for more.

@jamesmann1243 Год назад

Ben, so glad to see the old Caddie getting some well deserved love. I have not seen any videos on the old gal in a while, and I was curious if you still had the vehicle. Nice job on the transmission pan, We ( my family) had an old time mechanic, that did all all of our transmission work on our vehicle's when needed, and an old trick that Donald( the mechanic) always did, regardless of make or type of automatic transmission, was to straighten every transmission oil pan. He stated, if he didn't, they always leaked like a sieve, so do the smart thing and get the trusty old hammer and dolly or anvil and get to hammering. 😊

@scuff433 Год назад

@brcron007 Год назад

Glad to see you the caddy and the vette back at it. I remeber when u first found the caddy and got it. Great content 👍

@gordonhemenover9598 Год назад

I love seeing the Cadillac being driven and used. My favorite year Cadillac.

@MrZdvy Год назад

Good job. As an added security you can degrease the mating surfaces with thinner and apply a small amount of black permatex on both sides of the gasket. Then put the pan back on and let the permatex cure/dry BEFORE you put the fluid back in.

@melterofsnowflakes Год назад

Woohoo, good to see you, Ben!

@shanebennett7850 Год назад

Good to see you again bud 👍. I’m so jealous 🤣

@Ggliddy34 Год назад

My father worked at GM, 1968-1998. New production for the coming year started just after July 4th. So, judging by the body number, your body was probably made during Jan-Mar, 1956. You can use VIN lookup to obtain the assembly date, if you want. Hope this helps!

@steveblankenship2413 Год назад

Glad to see a video from you been a long time

@neilschipper3741 Год назад

Has a long time viewer always enjoy getting to see you work on the caddy. Any updates on your wife's Pontiac? Great information as always, thanks for the update video looking forward for the shop tour.

@surfer5352 Год назад

Great to see a video from you! Your shop looks awesome too. Congratulations Ben!

@mph5896 Год назад

Those steel pans, you need to peen the pan. Basically hit the hole with the round end of a ball peen hammer to push the hole back out. When you tighten a bolt on a thin steel surface, it pulls the metal in. Old school shop teacher taught me this 20 years ago.

@hughsmith7281 Год назад

Good to see you!

@alexandermckay8594 Год назад

With that lift you're going to have so much fun! How did that pan get warped like that? It's weird.

@DanTheManIOM Год назад

yea, we need a video of the dog ! Just the dog being a dog, riding in the car, head out the window ! LOL. Good Boi !

@nadz109 Год назад

Right on

@danforthe2006 Год назад

I've been watching TCB since the beginning, Mr Ben, and it's great to see the Caddy getting some luv. Can't wait to see your new headquarters, but I fully get that you want it to be D-O-N-E before taking us all through it. But what I just saw (esp that BIG lift) makes me even more interested. Do it right, take your time. I can wait, but not forever (nyuk nyuk) Dan in Bangor

I was there when you brought the Caddy home. I was hopeful that you would go ahead and install the air conditioner.

Ben, Is that a 4-spd GM Hydromatic? Love to hear more about how those drive since they have a fluid coupling vs. torque convertor.

@Slingshotgixxer Год назад

You can get the rear leaf springs re-arched at a spring shop, City Spring here in Oklahoma City re-arches leaf springs for heavy trucks and autos.

@stuartstephens Год назад

People often overestimate how much old cars weigh. They may be physically large, but there's a lot of empty space inside - no side door impact beams, no computers, no miles and miles of wiring, and so on.

@discerningmind Год назад

Yes, I agree. I first learned this when I bought a '66 Bel Air. What a lightweight! I don't have a figure for the weight of it, but during expressway driving, if I went over 60 MPH the front of the car would lift up a few inches and the manual steering would very noticeably lighten up, something like driving on ice.
