"For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him will have eternal life, and I Myself will raise him up on the last day.” -John 6:40
I saw this 1970 Plymouth Satellite 4 door for sale on marketplace. It was advertised as running and driving, but we quickly figured out it was in need of quite a bit more. Can we make it run and drive 250 miles home? Stick around to the end of the video to find out!

Saying a lot about how tough those 225 engines were. My cousin was broke needed a car and bought an old dart 4 door from a neighbor. Drove it to work for 9 years, and was still running at 155,000 miles. never need more than plugs points and a ballast resistor.

Heck yeah, the LAPD had some badass '68-'70 Belvedere sedans that were like 4 door RoadRunners. This car done like one of those slick top with the black and white livery would be slick. I like an A,B or C body Mopar sedan anymore if you manage to find a clean one it's something special.

Milky oil can sometimes be the crankcase breather on the valve cover, or the PCV valve, I would check those first and do a compression check before concluding a definite head gasket. Great find Dylan, can't wait to see the progress on this one. It will be an excellent donor. Thank you for sharing.

Maaan, this adventure seriously tugged at my heartstrings... nearly to the point of tears. My very first car was a 4-door '70 Belvedere, tan outside, blue interior. Looked just like that one, only zero rust (ex LAPD cruiser). Mine never lacked for power, had the 318 Interceptor. One impromptu stoplight dragrace, that car blew the doors off a '76 Z28 with a 350. Sadly, that "dodo" of an engine kept me from being able to Smog it, and the State of Commiefornia eventually impounded it... "STOLE" it from me, far as I'm concerned.🤨 I'll miss that car til my dying day. 😔

Here's a useless fact for y'all - Jimi Hendrix was stationed at Fort Campbell. He was a paratrooper. Broke his ankle on a jump, then got discharged. Then started playing guitar on "the chitlin' circuit", with Little Richard and the Isley Brothers, and the rest, as they say, is history.

I’ll add to this. Jimi Hendrix played his guitar upside down because he was left-handed and couldn't find a left-handed guitar. He refused to learn with his right hand and instead innovated by using a regular right-handed guitar and flipping it over

Seeing as it has the same rims as the General Lee, it definitely deserves a second chance at life with a V-8 engine whether it’s a 318, 360, 383, or 440. It definitely looks like it should have a V-8 instead of the slant six that it has. I found it kind of funny and comical that the rotted floor and trunk floor of the car were replaced with wood. I’m also relieved that you got home in one piece. I’m really looking forward to the project that this car becomes.

Dylan McCool brings old American classic cars back to life with his remarkable rebuilding skills. His channel is a haven for nostalgia lovers and gearheads who appreciate the art of restoration. Watching Dylan transform a rusted, forgotten vehicle into a roadworthy gem is immensely satisfying. His dedication to preserving automotive history and his hands-on approach provide educational content, teaching viewers about the mechanics and value of classic cars. Dylan's passion for breathing new life into these old beauties is contagious, making his channel a favorite for those who cherish vintage cars and the stories they tell. On the other hand, WhistlinDiesel offers a completely different kind of thrill with his high-octane stunts and daring destruction of brand new supercars. His channel is all about pushing boundaries and testing the limits of what these high-performance machines can endure. For viewers who love adrenaline-pumping action and unconventional content, WhistlinDiesel delivers in spades. The excitement of watching him take a brand new supercar and subject it to extreme conditions is both shocking and entertaining. His fearless approach to content creation keeps viewers on the edge of their seats, wondering what he'll do next.
