I traded for a 1955 chevy 

There’s a guy up in Canada who needs those front Daisy mags. He’s running some Chinese pizza cutters at the moment 😉 Rich guy leaves cars in other countries. I hear he will do floorpan work cheap.😉

In. My humble opinion tri fives are one of the most iconic vehicles ever made

I love the Starter rebuild. My first car was a 1967 Buick skylark---the starter was identical to a Chevy except for the bolt pattern on the nose cone---and the price! $60 for the Buick vs $20 for the Chevy. The parts guy looked at me funny when I turned in my Greasy-ass core with a brand new nose cone!

Ive had a few of those old 55s. Love em. Good content. Thanks

Cool as heck you got a pair of 55s back. You know you gotta keep em both alive!

I like how you bring it in at night. I have to bring them in while the Wife is at work 😎

Morning Dave.... Just watched you with Clay and Cotton. ...lol. Congrat's on the new show.

Years ago all the auto parts stores sold parts to rebuild or repair your starter they sold the brushes the bushings the Bendix nowadays everything is disposable that's a damn shame one thing for sure General Motors is great for interchangeability

I didn't think those trailer fenders would be able to handle the weight. Wow. I'm glad to see you get back your 55.

Heck yeah looking forward to seeing you work on the 55

I can’t wait to cruzin the coast to see y’all again. I hope Westley brings the barbecue pit again.

Cool as it gets , save as many as you can !!

I want a 55 so bad and you got tri fives everywhere! Must be nice! Congrats on getting two more. Can’t wait to see a build video.

Go newborn love them tri fives

You should invite DD Speed Shop Dan over and turn that 4 door into a 2 door, in a collab video, and if you dont want to build it after or sell it maybe send it to a highschool body shop or the like, I say this cause you mentioned it being a parts car. Imagine if you got to work on a 55 chev when you were in highschool. I love your builds and enthusiasim for the hobby

I have to admit, the modified rear wheel well openings on the 55 actually look kind of cool.

That thing needs nothing more than primer and a mail box scoop

Needs a straight axle and a 4 speed!

You need to do videos like dd speed shop okay. Red Winstead from the dirty south Salito Mississippi ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤57 Chevy is my favorite car of all time I have owned 4 of them

I’ll take it off your hands right now, I am looking for my first 55 Chevy parts car,, how much, thanks BigAl California.❤

Dude!!! Great video!!! Good trade!!!✌️

I grew up in Georgia. Raced at the Dallas drag strip and did everything with my old red mustang and stereo shows at stone mountain etc with my little Honda. I swear but can't remember when or where but I've hung out with David. Smart guy .

Man, I love this channel. I appreciate the work you guys do, and the fun you have doing it.

I freakin love this channel. It's so relatable for most hot Rodders. Thanks for sharing. Take Care!!!

Can't wait to see you back on your channel doing your own builds again. You have alot of cool projects to work on

I would definitely order patch panels. Less work and still have one to sell or build.

Great episode. yeah I been havin trouble with starter and alternators here the local chains either don't have them or they last a month. recently during a conversation at our local cruise I found there is a local fella 3rd generation rebuilder that stocks everything. and if he don't have it he will turn it around in 24 hrs. great old place has pics of race cars on the wall from the 70s and 80s has a smell of old grease. I knew that was the place that will for ever do my starters and alts. anyway stupid store just wanted to share

Dude! Just seen the Talon episode. I love it! Took me back to 90s. You guys are awesome. Keep it up!

Mr. B. Here ! 🍸👀😎👍. So you got your ( car ) build it to what makes you happy ! 👏👏👏👏

Sell it to dd speed shop😂

even though I'm sick if I had the room or work space since the wife got it as her she shed for wood working. I would love to learn welding and just build rusty crap thats cool again because I can do cosmetics but not welding or know motors to much. but its great that you and your friends have fun doing it

Dave, You're planning on reverting the arches on your '55 (?) back to stock (Not the parts car.). Why ? It looks great with the squared-off arches that it has now ! It really does make it stand out from the crowd. And leaving it as is would save you time and work. There's also the matter of the ARE 200Ss which look great; if you don't want 'em, try Freiburger for his Dodge Rumble Bee. But, it's your car so do with it what you will.

I was just thinking about you the other day while I was watching one of finnegans videos ,for some reason my RU-vid algorithm hasn’t pulled your channel so I didn’t know you had one but now that I have your info I’m already following your channel and glad that you are still doing content,I really enjoyed the 57 Chevy that you did right before parting way with finnegan so best of luck and I’ll be watching your channel ✌️

See There is Your Sign in the window reflection from the Camera in the back ground 😆 😆 DDSPEEDSHOP on the Nova 😆

Watched you and Cotton hanging it out Tuesday night. Great fun had by all. 💤💤💤💤💤rooom!!!!

Good trade Dave !

You have an awesome place there with a good size shop.

I hear Advance Automotive have Topkick starters. Have you seen what Dan has done with a 57 he rescued from the grave? Total rebuild 🇨🇦

Best trade every! 👍🇨🇦

That Harbor Freight gantry was pretty cool! I hadn't seen one assembled before. Glad you got your 55 back!👍

Good trade, I really the louvered hood on the ‘55!

Good morning brother.

Don't cut up the parts car, it looks like a good builder!

More on the GLH please!!!

C50 all the way! I have the same dilemma as you. 3 C50's, and a 95 Topkick that's been Suburbanized.

Sweet rides

Love the 55 being back! Be fun to see what you do with it!!

I rebuild my old starters all the time. You can even turn around the fork to the bendix drive to get more life out of it.

Dave, love the F1 Ford and the junk that you wrench on!

Nice

On the Cummins, watch out for how the intake heater cable connection can fail and drop pieces into the intake leading to valve disaster.

I've done my starter on my 70GMC 6500 from other starters now I could drive down the road with just the starter

I like 55 post cars and would love to have a 67 chevelle post , it's my dream car . Good luck with your builds

Hell yeah can’t wait to see you get the 55 running save another one for Dickie always wanted a 55 Chevy My first car was a 57 Chevy.

Both those cars a buildable. Next time Dan is down, give him the other if you don't want it.

Man I wish I could find a clean four door!!

Your Canadian counterpart would like speak with you LOL

That's a good thought about the second car as a drag car. If you're looking to do a tube chassis and a fiberglass nose, you've got a good start 🤘🤘🤘

The recirculating pump on those parts cleaners will make a bit of heat all by themself. I worked in a shop for a while and one of the guys would turn it on first thing in the morning when it was cold out.

You should sell me the parts 55 lol Look forward to seeing what you build out of all that!

I would have made that trade all day long lol. Those trailer fenders are some beast! Can’t wait to see your plan for these two cars.

saw a dd speed shop in reflection in window

I think you should save both of those 55’s!!! Good save on the starter!! Sometimes that’s what it takes!!

Hey Dave, the bottom ball joint is the load carrying joint, on this type of suspension

Awesome trade 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

It would be cool if u could do something with both of those 55

I like the Goes Like Hell in the background

55 Chevy 2 door ALL THE WAY .... 👌 If see 1 more 57 I'll scream .. unless it's factory stock & fuel injected.

Look like a job for DD Speed Shop

👏👏👏

Purchase the sheet metal needed, and keep the two of them. No sense in either being scraped. Two valuable of vehicles for that.

The crew of Ghost Mechanics that work for every RU-vidr are gonna come in and finish it during the night anyway, just you watch! If it was a 57 it would be a Goldmine, 55s are Mazda money..

Hey dude that GLH in the background needs to be some future content!

👍👍👍

Great video and interesting trade.

There’s about 50% of my memory that’s 90% sure that the starter from the c-50 would have bolted right up to the 366. Those are bellhousing mounted starters and I’ve actually used those bellhousings to make use of good engines that have broken starter mounting decks.

Maaan the louvered hood is COOL

i rebuild and repair starter alternator power steering pumps generators all . ,people are so amazed lol.

I know your busy but consider installing all window glass to reduce weathering on the insides of the 55's

I have that same starter on my 69 GMC 2500

Dan just rescued a 57 in way worse condition, than your parts car. Save them both and maybe park one up north so you have transportation when you go annoy Dan for a week in Canada sometime LOL!

Me being curious I’m now checking for a starter 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

I’ve used those metal brushes before & was by bristles flying off so often that I’ve stopped using them. Certainly risky to use without safety glasses or shield.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Good times.

12 volt, i love your content finnagans garage just ain't the same with you and cotten not being there his content is starting to get boring and i am not a fan of boat racing. just saying about finnagins garage, you on the other hand you are building cars thats what i love to see.

I hope you keep those american 200 S wheels on the 55 Great looking wheels and getting hard to find originals nowadays.The new ones have a different lip on them

Should do a fleet update

Nothing wrong with two 55 👍👍

That starter looks an awful lot like a 67-72 c10 starter

The bottom ball joint actually holds the weight of the car not the upper.

Restore both of em to daily driver spec 😊

I want a 55 bad enough that I'll take a 4 door!

My family owns a starter shop in Madison Illinois they do all sorts of antique starters and alternators starter alternator tech Madison Illinois

Yeah ...leave the wheel wells alone.....get em runnin...

2 lane blacktop

55s are the best👍🏻dont let Dan 4door swap it😂

4years now however I grew up in Indiana

Awesome. But between you and D.d. ain't guna be any left for us common folk. Lol
