Incredible Results! Buick LeSabre Gets Interior Cleaned Up AND New Wheels (For Goin' Ta Town) 

Felt awesome being back in the shop. Thanks for hanging with us and watching!

Derek, you bring a lot of people a lot of joy. Nothing like turning the brain off and watching VGG. Love it!

As we, your subscribers, very much enjoy your personal shtick throughout your videos we are aware of the underlying automotive teaching that is going on, and that is a good thing. I wonder, though, if you are aware of the family dynamics lessons you are teaching as you involve Jessica and the boys in the episodes. Your love and respect for them and their love and respect for you in your interactions shines through the silliness, and that is a VERY good thing. Thank you for keeping your channel family friendly. You have a gift for imparting knowledge to students who didn't even know they had come to be schooled.

I love seeing your family being just as invested in these old rigs as you Derek, you are a really lucky fella, and I love to see the solid family unit!

I like the way you're wife supports and participates in your projects

Derek, Jessica is so blessed to have you around when you start talking I see her face light up. As if she says "Oh No Here He Goes Again" It is a new language called Derekes so we understand a lot more as time goes on.

love the back ground music I am 75 years young and like to jump start the old brain by learning stuff keep up the good work where is my teeth

Hey Derek, I Would love an update on LeSabre. If the fuel tank is still being illusive, maybe show us how to do the tank liner option? Thanks for keeping me entertained!

Stuck in the hospital, this is a great thing for a fella to watch to lift his spirits

It’s great how the girl a fella loves works on the latest rig with him!

Never would have guest that watching a couple cleaning their new old buick would be that enjoyable for a guy to watch Nice work Derek, seems like youv solved the formula to how to make the audience stay and watch a whole episod with joy till the very end, waiting for the next one! Happy to see your channel grows Bud. Cudos.

Derek and his family represent everything that is good about America. He is a breath of fresh air in these trying times.

That was 30 and 36 seconds perfectly invested...LOVE...THIS...CAR!!! Well done Derek...well done Jessica!!!

This is the nicest car you've had on here, I think. And seeing those new wheels and tires convinced me you should do a new black vinyl roof.

Derek: Give it a yatch! Jessica: Yatch! Good to see a couple who will work together.

I’m actually a totally blind musician, but watching these videos has really taught me a lot about cars and how they work. From somebody who doesn’t know much about cars, thanks amigo. You’re one heck of a guy.

Can’t express how satisfying it is to watch you bring it up back to life. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from France 🇫🇷

a fella likes to sit down after work and watch these, makes him feel good on the inside.

Black vinyl top all the way! That would look sweet.

reminds me of my 75 Olds 95 a little. Very boat like. Drives like a couch. Giving me some inspiration to start tearing into that and restoring it finally.

About the only RU-vid channel where I can safely hit the like button before the show even starts

Derek: I would put on a factory black vinyl top. Use the GM vinyl grain of that era. Cheers

As a born and bred Minnesotan, now for the past 30 years living in the old country I relish tuning in to your stuff for my daily dose of Minnestotian. Thanks so much!

Good to see Jessica helping out again, n I'd paint the roof in a semi gloss black. She'd look sharp

The paint was branded as “Magic Mirror Finish” in the old promos. Go for the black vinyl top, can’t beat the look and it’s an easy project.

A guys really lucky when the wife helps you clean the car, with a big smile

Had a '73 Buick Regal two door hardtop and maintenance wise it was the cheaper of any per year to maintain, gas mileage was 35 mpg and the only problem had was a new radiator that cost $90 to recore. Otherwise it purred on the highway and hugged the gravel road expertly. Seeing a '68 revitalized is a reminder of the less rustiness of the Buick in those days. The '73 is still on the road as well this detailing is going to rock! Vehicle was well looked after.

VGG goes good with coffee and Saturday mornings. I just can't help but seeing her with a real cool silver paint scheme.

Perfect end to my Friday. Oh, welcome back Jessica!

Vinyl top. Love the wheel/tire combo. Looks like a giant Hotwheels car.

I've watched damn near every episode since being introduced to vice grip garage and it makes me want to go out and find one of these old rigs bring er back to life. This show is truly inspiring and entertaining

after having vgg sugested for years i finaly started watcing this week, and now i had to change to nightshifts at work so i can stay up all day while the misses is at work to binge watch. you are changing lifes XD love it

The best channel on RU-vid. Derek, you are an absolute star. Great bloke, lovely family, superb content. Doesn't get any better than this. Cheers from the UK.

You & Jessica did a great job on the interior, what a nice family, stay safe all, from across the pond 🇺🇲👌🇬🇧

It's so amazing to see this car. Every angle you show reminds me of how it looked when the lead in the paint still glistened, even in low light. ;) My parents traded ours in for a 1980 LeSabre. The first car my dad ever bought off the lot. The rear deck and dash disintegrated into a fuzzy orange powder by then and the car was garaged its entire existence. Seeing an intact dash is pretty fkn cool, frankly. I always loved the steering wheel of that car. And the ashtray

Those backseats are so clean I wouldn't be surprised if there's a new kid coming in 9 months lol

My grandparents bought a 1967 Lesabre brand new and my mom and dad still have it. It’s the two door model.

The random "number 10 wire" shout had me laughing. Jessica didn't even flinch which tells me this kinda stuff just doesn't happen in the videos. Lmao

My dad isn't into RU-vid, but I showed him your videos, and he loves watching them. Thank you.

I think this car just might be one of my favorites so far and those spacers, wheels and tires just look perfect!

"I'll be dipped!" has got to be my favorite thing Derek says...

When Jessica was in front seat cleaning and talking about going back over it with Q-tip and did Dereck's famous hand gestures I cracked up

Only a couple videos in, but this is already becoming one of my favorite channels. You're a hoot to listen to.

I love it. I suppose "Good-Ness-Sakes" is her version of "Well, I'll be dipped"

I'd go vinyl top for Sure. She's a keeper!

I think your Buick is Cool!! Keep doing more of these resurections, I like your choice in the red line tires. That Buick brings back many memories for me. I would like to see a textured wrap on the roof.

I love these kinds of vlogs. Love the old Buick’s. Any clip with Jessica in it is worth watching. Derek’s okay too. Okay, well, he’s the whole show.

Bringing these "Slices of Heaven" back to life is cool to watch, thanks guys!

Sitting in the hospital waiting on my wife to get out of surgery and boom there it was a VGG video. Perfect!!!

Wet sand, buff, and vinyl top. Bring back some of that original glory.

Wouldn’t mind watching a guy tear into an eight track player to revive it

Her “hyiatss” was adorable.

I hope this is a keeper, and a long term project. She’s a beaut

wonderful having Jessica star in this video! please ask her to be in more youtube projects!

14:52 " arm out the guy window" happens to the best of us lol

Those "Wobbley Pops betweenst tha cheeks" made that safety gear selection whack me right in the funny bone! We love those laugh out loud moments! Keep these videos a comn! BRING THE THUNDER! 🤙

A guys had a lousy day and this is gonna cure it lol

It's 11:47pm here in Northern Ireland. I should be asleep, but..... 😁

I love being able to see the entire story of getting the car going, getting it home, then watch the love that goes into them, I grew up driving these cars & they were without a doubt so much better than driving what passes for cars today, keep up the great work

When you have a car that is already in as good a shape as that one is, it deserves a complete restoration. Vinyl top for sure.

Fantastic video Derek and Jess! I gotta see that Buick with a black top and repainted bottom. Also, your channel is climbing to 1 million faster than ever! Feb 5 2021, 621k subscribers

"Arm out the guy window". 😆 Awesome. Thank you Derek and Jessica. I hope I've spelled your names correctly. Best wishes to you and all ❤️ Stay safe everyone ✌️😎

just makes a guy want to go into a hardmore store and holler: "number 10 wire!" and walk away...perfect. 😂

When you do the radiator you might as well go the heater core there on the same principal might be just the hoses . I really like your show .Thanks

"It's a weird fibrous, it's almost like someone dropped a stick or something in to the fuel tank. Don't ask me how I know." Well now I need to hear this story. Come on Derek, don't leave us hanging :)

My parents brought a new 1968 Wildcat 4 door sedan, in what looks like the same gold/green color as your LeSabre. It had the exact same black interior and it had a black vinyl roof. Being a sedan, the doors had the full frames around the windows, which were chrome. I was 5 years old at the time, but the stayed in our family for 12 years. They ended up with the 4 door sedan by error, as they ordered a 4 door hardtop but when the car arrived at the dealership, it was a sedan. My parents were OK with the sedan, and actually, it looked very classy. Our Wildcat had lots of options, including a tilt wheel, AC, power windows, Am/Fm (not sure if it was stereo), road wheels, power antenna, rear defogger, and all the fancy courtesy lights. My favorite thing was the "speed alert" buzzer. I remember my dad always saying the engine in the Wildcat was so powerful, the transmission was smooth as silk, and the car had the best ride out of any car he ever owned, and he had lots of cars (mostly Caddy's).

Love seeing your helper, you are a lucky man.

I’m really hoping that you put a new black vinyl top on the Buick. It would look super sharp!

"Give it a 'hee-yat...tsssss'!" Love it!

This British guy watched the whole original rescue video and to my surprise ended up loving this old Buick. Would really like to see the vinyl roof redone. The original paint colour would be nice too. That interior is amazing...

I can’t imagine driving around in this old beauty in its prime and not being an arm out the guy window lol 14:52

"What is that?.... A Turbo?" LOL. big smile.

Love the LeSabre reminds me of the one I had I’d paint it the original green/gray....add metallic finish Beautiful!👍🏻🌠🚘

I keep following this build because my first car was a 68 LeSabre 400. brings back some great memories and makes me miss it bad.

“Must’ve not been an arm out the guy window” had to pause and go back to make sure I heard that correctly 😂

That La Sabrey is so close to factory that it's screaming for bodywork and being brought back to Tarpon Green Mist with a Black vinyl top. It's great to see you guys working together. She adds a voice of reason and provides much needed adult supervision. ;-)

You got me at “Give it a hyah tssst!” 😂

I absolutely love to see how nice it turned out to be. Cars like this are hard to find in Germany ... Great find, great job!

That is coming along so good Can’t believe how nice the interior is Will be a very nice going to town car when all done 👍👍

"I'm gonna crank 'er up ta lucif'r~mode...." lol !!

Really enjoy all your revivals! So fun to watch you guys, you’re so talented. Also enjoy all the humor and how you explain the process of these projects. I appreciate you keeping your channel clean with your language Derrick… thank you… Rob

Watching your wife working on that car. I think you are one lucky man.

14:55 Arm out the guy window Thank you for that

You give hope to shade tree mechanics everywhere and helpful insight for all those working on old cars.

"Sparkling like a new porcelain tooth!" Terrific job. :)

"I can turn the heat off of Lucifer Mode." LOLOLOL.

Paint the whole car gloss red and a gloss black roof and black on the bottom✌😀💯 You know it will mach the interior and the new rims💯

Spray on truck bed liner for the roof! Once the outer skin starts to dry but not the inner part of the coating, take a thin gauge piece of aluminum coil (Menards) stock and apply a thin coat of vegetable oil (Pam™)and gently roll it over the coating to smooth out the top surface to emulate the vinyl original roof surface. Small section at a time, until you master it. Practice, practice, practice.

Derek, I’d love to see you have that Buick painted all over! It deserves better than patina!

Oh it’s wet “get it off “ “get it off” made me laugh 😂 love you Derek such a character..

love the rejuvenation of that girl. Brings back memories of the hot seat in summer time!

"Sharper than a bent thumbtack!" I never heard that one! 👌🤣

Vinyl top a feller want to see how to do one of them and I like the looks

I remember when I was a kid we had a 73 Buick Century that had the same color of trunk liner. Learned how to drive and took my drivers license test in it.

“The I need help button” so good.

I kinda would like to see a full restoration

Derrick " What's that?" Jessica " I need help button" Me: spits coffee laughing.

I love those old land yacht Buicks. When I was a kid, we had a '73 LeSabre with I think was a 460. Good times in that rig.

When he said “temporary permanent solution” I felt that

Im gonna tell you what everyone else is telling you. Strip her down, Clean her up, and paint her black. Timeless! Edit "I can turn the heat off lucifer mode" man, I connect with that lmfao
