Your dad is the man 👍🏻. There ain’t nothing he can’t do you are lucky to have him buddy 👍🏻

You're so blessed to be able to do cool things with your dad.

Father son projects are cool, I learned a lot from my dad by doing projects on cars and around the house.

Man you are so lucky to be able to wrench with your Dad. I would give anything to be able to work together and talk about our cars again with my Dad. He's been gone 9 years now. He's the one that me and my brothers Chevy/GM lovers.

Love old wagons and 4-doors. Like you said in the Impala video- 4 doors are for people with friends!

Travis, Your logical, process minded approach, in combination with your cool and calm narration opens the mind to learn new things. Or in the case of your and your Dad's projects, to learn old things. Always a pleasure, gentlemen. Wishing you continued success!!

the patience you and your dad showed aligning the tires, steering and the hood was the most amazing part of the video. check that impala for salt damage and drive safe

m with your Dad. I watched ALL those shows!

Amazing job..love watching you and dad work together

Congratulations on your 100,000 I love your aw shucks low key just make it happen content. I’m glad you keep getting these low rust old heroes back on the road . Keep ‘em coming.

Thank you for sharing AND your APPRECIATION to your subscribers Travis

It's so satisfying to see folks align your suspension WITHOUT all the computers and sensors and whatnot. You had all the tools you needed...in your brains! I am deeply impressed. Wish I still lived in AZ; I'd definitely saunter over and see you folks. Wishing you a safe journey home from New Jersey. Aloha!

I'm glad to see both vehicles updated, keep them coming.

I had a blue one...283/power glide. School work AND WEEKEND FISHING TRIPS!!!

Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.

Love the Chevys thank you. I would love to own the wagon. My mom and dad had a 62 wagon the time I was growing up until 1973 . Then they bought a new 73 4 door Chevy Impala.

Back in 1986, I could've bought a 63 Chevy wagon, white with a red interior ( my favorite combo ), 283, 2 bl, 3 SPD, for $350. I passed only because I dislike a 3-on-the-tree. Wish I had that car now. Ended up getting a 64 Dart 4 Dr, white, red gut, with a 273 and pushbutton auto, at auction for 100 bucks! Those were the days, Trav.

Travis, you and your dad do a great job. Enjoy your videos

I’m at the point in my life where I’m supposed to be doing project cars with my dad, but unfortunately he didn’t make it. So watching these videos makes me think about how much of a fun time I know we would have and I feel better. Keep doing what you’re doing.

Longacre , it's good stuff. We used that back in our racing days.

Travis.and.rick.watching.from.australia❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I like that 62 station wagon. The 63 body style is my favorite but as you said before a 1950 Sally through 1963 was the best ever. That's true for these Impalas Bel airs and so forth.

That wagon is awesome

My very first car... With a 230 straight 6

Thanks for another , Brothers !!

My older brother’s first car was a 1962 Bel Air 2 door sedan. He bought it in 1968 for $400.00. It was a great car. It was a 6 cylinder, 3 on the tree with manual steering and brakes.

Love the old wagons

You and your father should make a video on ignition timing and carb set up!

If you haven't looked already, check the vacuum line to yhe modulator valve at the transmission. It could be unplugged. If so, you will only get first gear. Love you videos. 😊

My two cents, the drivers fender pushed back. So remove the drivers headlight, install a square tube and use a come along to pull the drivers side of the radiator support forward with the fender attached till it lines up with the hood, while adjusting the drivers side slots on the hood hinge back. Whenever moving fenders make sure the doors keep their gap so you don't curl the door or fender in when opening the door.

Carol Burnett show is fricken great lol

Another good job

Hands down the best car mechanics channel on RU-vid!! Always look forward to the next video. Love these cars. It’s a shame nothing like this exists commonly in the uk. I’d love to get my hands on an old station wagon. Great work guys 👍🏻

Love your channel Travis. I had to lol when your dad mentioned watching hee haw I had to too when I was a kid! My dad insisted on watching it.

Wanted to see more of that Cummins 👍

Great video

You and your dad do some fantastic work and that dog's really cute too! Lol

Great 👍 content, love the ole Chevy cars. Amazing job guys ☺️.

My folks had a ‘62 Belair, the only new car Dad ever bought. My sister learned to drive in it. I drove their next car. I remember how good the air vents worked. I think they could flutter your pant legs. I searched online for pictures. I could recognise the hub caps. I must have washed them many times. Thanks for your content. Doug, Kent WA.

What a cool cruiser that will make.

Mr. B. Here ! Well dad am with you alignments it be almost 50 years since I done one . Toe in & toe out maybe two years ago. LOL ! Eye ball 👀 👀 ! You guys will do better than some shops. What ever you do will be 10X better , good luck guys . Love to see how this one ( wagon ) comes out ! 👍👍 🍺🍺 😎😎

I watched Carol Burnett just the other day.

Waiting to see part 2...Safe travels love your vidio's👍

I like that wagon, but your Elcamino is my favorite!!!

Man-o-man Travis that's a beautiful wagon. I wanted to give you the heads up there's a RU-vid channel called what the rust and he shot a video at a auto parts store in Kentucky that has closed down quite a while ago but they found the whole thing full of brand new parts as they would say New Old Stock. Mostly for older vehicles like this stuff you're dealing with but all vehicles back even Studebakers and Hudson anyhow if you watch the video he gives the man's name and phone number to get ahold of him to buy whatever you need. Maybe there's something there you need they have literally hundreds of thousands of parts available. Anyhow keep doing what you doing I hope to God one day I get to go out that way and visit you and your dad I believe it would be something worthwhile doing!

a couple 12" floor tiles for each side with a dab of grease between them works great for a turntable.

Hay you all. It is a little pie r sq stuff never seen this done. Pretty cool stuff great video watching and thanks from. Sc

крутая тачка жаль таких больше не делают

Wagons are so cool… 😎

wow - that requires some patience!

Mr. B. Here ! GM school check the radiator support bolts lose align !

Nice wagon 😊

Lookin forward to the new fly & drive video!

Love N it high level old school😆

i love waggins. there's a guy that works right around the corner from me (city of tucson yard) that has a '63. it looks like it's just a beater, but upon closer look, it's got some suspension work don, and has something hot under the hood.

What a cool car.

Very cool wagon!!!!

I did not know that WOW I got something from you 😊

This reminds me of pudding’s fabs shop wagon

Having fun in the desert. 💯🆒

Good.job. cool car 😄👍👍👏👏

20:36 You use those shims that you used for the control arms behind the fender flange

All I've mess with in regards to alignment is tie rods. done it 2 times with a tape measure and or 2x4. Did alright for using that method. Obviously i just did that to have it good enough until I could get it to a shop to do it right.

It looks good compared to how it was. The Camino looks great! I've watched it from day one. Me and your dad have to be close in age. I watched the same shows and Hee Haw was a fun show. Like Rowan and Martin show... Great job guys. I'm 6 hours from there. 60 Chevy too? I'm jealous.

Pretty cool 😎 demonstration of alignment. The 62 wagon will be great. The El Camino is looking great. Richard your dad is very good Travis. Thank you for sharing.💯👍👊

I'm partial to the 64 Impala but the 62 is growing on me.

Early congrats on 100k, i remember not long ago you were in stealth mode! Great channel, wishing you much success!

Went to become a member and then realized I already did that. Hoping to come down from Surprise for the duct tape drags.

Friend of mine who was a factory trained mechanic used a castor and camber gauge like the one you have. He did all kinds of general repair when he opened up his own shop and he aligned front ends all of the time. Me thinks that the front end on that car has been off and it could be crooked. A body man I knew would point out that by just sighting the fenders one can tell if they are not in line with the rest of the car body and of course the radiator support where it attaches to the frame can be adjusted. Those hood adjustments can get tricky and along with wear in the hinges it can be hard to get them right. Same would apply to door alignment. I have seen people trying to adjust doors when the real culprit would be worn out door hinges as an example. It appears that the car has been lowered as I seem to remember cars in the sixties sitting a little higher in ground clearance. This looks like another "Dad" paint job in the works.

clean that danm car!

Your Elco is beautiful

I remember Hee-Haw a dang good TV. Then you have Barbara mandrell and The mandrell sisters. Sonny and Cher were pretty much dead at that time when I was coming around. And The Statler Brothers.

Travis, If you want to paint your GM rally wheels silver like they came from factory , I use Krylo Hi Heat Aluminum (Radiator) in a rattle can after I bead blast them , It's real close to factory Argent Silver but a whole lot cheaper , Also Jegs sells the trim rings and center caps in stainless but prices on them are creeping up , used to get the rings for $20 a few years ago , I think they are around $30 now?

move the core support left or right he moved when he replaced body mounts. get hood fitting cowl and then shift the core support

I see ya got the optional Spider Web windshield in the rig.

Man that El Camino is a beauty!

Love these videos man

Nice work, I've never seen that alignment tool before.

Sweet lol 🇺🇲northern calif

Leave your caster at 2 degrees as long as you have power steering you will be fine.

Since they had the body off the frame, maybe when they put it back on, they didn't get it on straight. It appears to me that is the problem. The hood is fitting correctly but the whole body and front fenders are askew. That's why the right fender is so far forward and the left fender is back or in alignment. I think the body bolts need to be loosened and the body twisted to move it into alignment. Just my surmising.

Tires look new 🇺🇲

AAHH TRAVIS AND DAD ,, ANOTHER MISSING COMMENT ????

Looks like someone got shot through that windscreen

When we were kids our parents had a Chevy wagon. It was either a 63 or 64, it had the rear facing way back seat. We loved riding in it. Thanks for your video, it brought back a lot of good memories.

I'm no know it all I think the radiator support is swung to the left

Looks like the left fender has been bent down a little bit.

I watched all those shows. Not much selection back then.

P.S. that wagon looks good rolling down the road ! Mr. B. !

I noticed that you were taking specs from the manual for a 1967. Isnt that wagon a 1962, or are the specs the same up to 1967. You men can get more practical work done than most all those drama overloaded shows on the tv channels. Bill

You should take the wagon.

Dad and I

I'm only about sixteen minutes into your video so I don't know if you're going to do this or not...bit...I have that same car in a 1964. Loosen the bolts on your fenders and make adjustments on the fenders and the hood together.

I live Tucson Would like to meet... Native tucsonion

Hi hi hello

I remember that show very well Roy Clark Buck Owens Grandpa Jones Minnie Pearl what the price tag on her hat

Cfta

Hey thanks for the video keeps me inspired that windshield would make a great photograph for a record album cover that's what I think cool car have a great day
