Auction Car Nightmares! The Beaten and Downtrodden - Stacey David's Gearz S9 E8 

Does anyone remember this guy from Trucks from the old tv network TNN? And also the show horsepower tv ? The beginning of my car education.

My only problem of watching your videos is deciding which one to see next

I always love Stacey's heavy use of hand tools over high end air or electric tools. Great project and nice look.

Thanks Stacey, I've been watching you for years and I not only learned a lot about custom mods but how to build them the right way. I have been doing my own vehs for more than 40 years and I now work on other people's projects. Between the new products and technics I consider your show continued education. Keep up the GREAT work!!!! Thanks for everything

Best auto show there is, no drama no deadlines to meet no howling or stupid characters, just good old repair/replace with good oem products,,Host Stacey tells it straight. I subscribed here on youtube as here in Canada our tv providers want extra $$ for everything.,,Carry on, thanks. geo

"now is the time to fix it." Thats how changing ball joints in a camaro became control arm bushing, then body bushing then sub-frame and body rust repair...

This is such a great show!! Thanks for putting it on RU-vid!!!!!!!

Thanks for the great episode Stacey and crew! GearzNation!

I've watched Stacey's show for years, it was on Speed back years ago when I first got satellite. I loved the show back then and it's still fantastic. Yeah yeah, the infomercial portions are too long but whatevs, the rest makes up for it.

“Watches show” man that was easy! “Spends a month rebuilding front end in driveway”

@ 17:41 did anybody here the guy in the background yelling when Stacy David shot that bungee cord. (LMAO)

You do these right , always enjoy watching and learning … great editing

I really enjoy your videos, Stacey. I wish I had the money my own 4×4 project. Keep up the good work. 👍🇭🇲😁🦘

I have missed your show on you tube for awhile; glad to catch back up! Brakes and suspension are so important and the very last place you would want a failure. Keep up the good work... a long time fan.

A great engine for those '60s Chevrolet cars and trucks were the 327 cid

Glad to see full episodes back on!

You are LEGEND bro!

Thanks for the full episode Stacey!!!

Actually there IS something wrong with flipping cars. It makes it more difficult for the average guy to afford something cool. Why? Because too many see flipping classics as a profitable business when it really isn't and only further drives up the price.

thanks for these episode, just heard through the company I work through that you've been picked up by O'REILLY Auto Parts as one of the sponsors two of my favorites . don't have MavTV or velocity and really miss your show . thanks again.

I loved your TV Show, and now I love your RU-vid Channel. You had the best show and inspired me to start a RU-vid Channel. Thank You.

I never understood why anybody would think to change suspension components to ones with better quality (or at least looking like that) with the same function and geometry would improve the handling.

Wow, a whole episode. Thanks.

The original flipper was a real hack and whoever bought that POS was ripped off. The entire car needed to be redone. The paint looked like a bad rattle can job! At least Stacey made it safe. I wonder how much oil it burns haha.

A really great show. Thanks

I use to save good battery cables if there were good OEM ones off cars I scraped

awesome show Stacy

That's why I would never use spacers on wheels and oversized wheels

See, even the master of restoration needs an extra pair of hands on occasion

Great show I just wish your show was still on Tv on a Chanel I could get but Verizon don’t carry your chanel

All nice and all... But what was the cost of all that? $8,000?

I love your show and your garage

I wish they would show what the heck the changes did. Like a before and after compare.

The guy that bought that thing. Never looked at it. Damn thing still has drum brakes up front.

And.... At what total cost Stacy? I am heading that way with my 67 427 Caprice. I checked on QA1 I've been away for 20 years on buying hard parts. Sticker shock.

Great upgrades. How many man hours did those upgrades actually take, and an approximate cost?

I should have gotten a 5.9 Cummins, my 2018 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3l v8 gets 13 miles per gallon.

I've got an edge juice with aditude programmer and I get 30 to 37 mpg on race mode. with an cold air intake and straight pipe exausht.

I wish he would build a Scout II or feature an IH motor, like a 345 or 392.

Thank you

Did anybody notice they screwed up and put the drivers side shock in before the panhard bar and the bolt wouldn't fit?

love that handle

Wonder why they didn't upgrade the master cylinder, seems to me a system that was designed for drum brakes would not be correct for disc brakes.

what happends to take off parts if u take to swap meet and it dont sell does it scrapped?

I have to point this out. He was installing a dave kindig door handle then promoted a different companys handle. Im a big fan of kindigs that kinda rubbed me the wrong way

seen this video and seen that Stacey did not say this but the lug nuts that was used on them rims was also the wrong lug nuts this where stock lugs on them rims

sweet door handles never seen something like that

3 threads is enough to reach maximum torque value for the size of stud. so to be safe we have to spend 10K in parts? u don't need any of this just to go to the cruise in and back

so much truth in the first minute and a half

Stupid question. Since Disc brakes require more fluid to operate than drums, does the stock master cylinder has the capacity to operate? I remember one of these shows, (Hot Rod TV, Crank N Chrome, Horsepower, etc) made a note about that, but said the the Corvette Master could be used in a lot of applications for the (Same model year) due to Factory 4 wheel Disc.

Shame that car didn't get a modern rack and pinion conversion to go with the modern suspension and brakes...

Any one of us could do all that work in have the time, with half the tools, for half the money, right in our driveway. I'm talking like an hour or two tops! You can do this man, go for it! hahahaha

Good work ! Need your show on Velocity ! Preferably Morning !

I am in love with the Pontiac Firebird in the beginning of the video! I can't remember if it's a 68 or 69 maybe a 70? Either way THAT is a gorgeous car! And the only reason I kept watching the video was just to see glimpses of that beauty.....NOT the polished turd that he put the overdose of parts on.😛

Do you have to take out the c clamp inorder to do a rear brakes conversation on a Axle with drum brakes

Stacey's show has always been about the work, the tips and the ideas, not doing it fast, cheap and being silly and (thank goodness) not with all the stupid childish drama of all those other amature hack Hollywood shows that a really just 60 min commercials for all the stuff. When the goal of the show changes from the wrenching work and cool ideas to the drama and money, it becomes just like all the rest and loses my interest. Stacey's show has never done that and I hope he never lets it get there, since his show is different than all those other cookie cutter shows out there. Stacy is a true professional and doing for the blue collar man. Once you watch all the different shows on these days, it becomes obvious that Stacy is one of only a few of the people on tv that actually know what they're doing and how to do it right! We are all very lucky to have someone like Stacy and his shows. Stacy, stay true to yourself, I've been watching you for years and years. Thanks

Great episode and fantastic project. But...looks like some serious dough involved. Estimate on all those upgrades$$??

Keith is my middle name. I love those big Dodge Ram Dually trucks

Those door handles he showed co st $200, each!!! The rods and latches not included in their $409 two handle kit WTF

What about the lower cam pin .... The knuckle it bolts right on ? Show how

17:39 17:41 17:45 15:57 17:30 17:35

The problem with always smoking the tires is the police have no sense of humor and tires are expensive

I flip cars but nothing this nice. Plus I have tondo a good job because a lot of my sales happen on facebook and peoppe are quick to dime others out for shoddy work...

That car looks like Fast n Loud butcher job

the parts he put on were about 10k easy.... the car probably sold for 10k.... yup thats reasonable

If you decide to give up being a car restoration wizard, you could easily be a comedian 😄 😉.

This was way overkill for what that car needed.

how about those coils shocks for cadillac deville 1994 were to get some

What's the paint code on this car?

when will you do a nissan hardbody

Yo Stacey, since it's a lowered car, won't the rear sway bar grind the street on bumps?

persuasion, tools, swearing for parts that are hard to get off

I guess if someone cant figure out how to use a door handle, its a good one???

I love the references ...he is Savage

$10,000 worth of suspension going into that car

man do a full Cummins deisel trans build.

Ain't nothing like dupping 20k in brakes and suspension to make a restomod to a hot rod.

Great idea if you Stacey shop and tools!!! Next you need a fat wallet!!! (the stuff they show ain't cheap) Fred said it

I desperately want to start a project.

Motorcycles don't have doors

I built the 68 Dodge Charger in the left of the video at 21:50

Why is it called emergency brake in USA? In Europe and Russia it is a parking brake.

Hey Stacey, please put real tires and rims on that former ghetto ride hoopde

seems like maybe some people would have wanted that car stock.

“Performance coilover shocks where you can adjust your performance right here at the top “ This guy has no clue.....and does he ever finish a project ?

Why ain’t you with Motor Trend on demand.

So no more chucks garage ?

What was the suspension company name ?

So nice to have money

This guy spends Oney like the government 😂🤣

BS that was no "flipper. Look at the inner fenders, the paint on the front fenders,,,,?? Some time spent SOME time on that Body.

I WAS WONDERING CAN YOU HELP ME OUT WITH MY 1977 CADILLAC

I don't like the wheels and tires on the '66Biscayne it's too GHETTO for me and it will ride like a brick

Never say anything prices lol

STACEYS ATTITUDE IS SUPREME 👐👐👐👐 .... LOVE THAT FUCKN GUY 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 WISH HE KOULD 🐝 MY AMIGO SO HE KAN MANHANDLE MY 1955 CHEVY TRUCK 3800🤗🤗🤗🤗

door handle on a motorcycle? am i in a different dimension?

Yeah hang on while I rob a bank to afford all that stuff.

Sure...I'll just buy $7000 worth of new parts up front and fix my old beater...NOT !

Marketing mumbo jumbo. Lots of inaccuracies and flat out lies. Infomercial, stock parts worked just fine, not junk.

Your not in the United Kingdom though . But good effort
