Finally!! A gear head RU-vidr for the rest of us!! No free parts from sponsors. No lifts. Harbor Fright floor jack. Using an adjustable wrench as a micrometer. Using a muffler bracket as a tape measure. I can totally relate. The only thing you missed was knocking the throw-out bearing off the clutch arm a hundred times😤

@PoleBarnGarage Год назад

That did happen lol

@garethbarnes3680 Месяц назад

With you all the way

@michaelcuff3418 Год назад

Love these old Torinos! This is real life muscle cars! Not everything is all shiny underneath!

@The-Deadbolt-Deputy Год назад

I love how you used an adjustable wrench for a micrometer. Genius.

@jeremymackevincaylor5041 Год назад

Yeah I usually just use metric wrenches myself.

@jesper1406 12 дней назад

My adjustable wrenches are highly inaccurate. 😂

@brandaneakright6082 Год назад

That Torino is cool as hell, I honestly love the 70-73 Torino fastbacks. It’ll be really cool when it’s finished, keep up the good work.

Heartwarming to see you sharing your mechanical knowledge with JD that your dad shared with you. That's what makes young people understand how hard work pays off for a lifetime.

I had a 70 429SCJ back in 1978. Remember replacing the pilot bearing for the top loader 4 spd the same as you did! Laying on my back with just jack stands and the floor jack struggling to get it out and back in without killing myself! 🤣

@timothyballinger6280 Год назад

Brings back nightmares lol! Its been a few years since I've changed a transmission but I remember the fun...not! At least someone is giving you a hand. Makes it a little easier or less painful lol! Love the torino

@carltrano1325 Год назад

Like taking a trip down Memory lane watching the stuff that transmission in that 70 Torino I have done that exact job many many times when I was a teenager. How I miss my 70 Cobra Torino.

Hell yeah... I have a 1970 Formal Roof Torino... I have already been through all of this on my car over the last 6 years... We have MANY days of horrible 105-109 hot weather and I am 56, AND working alone... For mine I found low mileage climate controlled original leaf springs from a car wrecked in 1971 or 2. THen I got Monroe Load Handler coil over shocks for a Ranchero which are two inches longer, removed the lower eyes, and welded the bayonet ends onto them from another set of old shocks. Since I lifted the back end with McBay shackles as well, the length difference was all but eliminated. I've been dreaming of owning a 70-71 Torino since I was in 9th grade, and finally got it in 2017. I JUST fired up the Blueprint crate engine today... No feeling better than that. It sounds evil with long tube open headers, hehe.

@Bikedueder 9 месяцев назад

OH!! Probably too late, but that no crank thing is probably the neutral safety witch, and possibly also the block ground to the firewall. I had that dim everything but no action from both.

@clank4442 Год назад

Also I think 4 speed cars use a left hand speedometer gear instead of the right hand one used in the three speed. If you get the ignition switch for a 71-73 mustang you should just have to cut the harness connector and re use your old one. since someones already be in there hacking you probably wont have to butcher anything to make it work.

I think that's what someone has done already. Or tried to
