The painting gnomes edged out the frame rails we welded on last time so now it is time to swap over the subframe and get the drivetrain back in the Grand Am. While we are here, we will throw some new brake lines on it that do not have the standard Illinois rust. If you missed the previous videos of this series, see them here:

The way I see the cheaper builds is not everyone can afford a $20,000 vehicle. I think Scott does a great job of making a affordable car for people that can only afford x amount on a vehicle. Some may see this as a waste but this will make someone a great car whether this is someones first car or a affordable second car. I wish there was someone like Scott 37 years ago when I was looking for my first car.

@paulstein7369 Год назад

Ultimate recycling. The amount of energy it takes from RAW MATERIAL to FINISHED CAR is UNREAL. Scott deserves a GREEN PLANET RECYCLE ♻️ AWARD...😏you are welcome SCOTT.

@dot7107 Год назад

I have that 20k multiple times but I don't want to use it for daily driver, just for traveling every day from point a to b and back.

@chris_A8502 Год назад

I enjoy all the rebuilds, and I especially enjoyed "pizza girl"'s cameo in this one. I think she adds something 👍☺

@Twin_Flyer Год назад

Scott, your builds are never boring as I always feel I have learned something.

@HenryMulder53 Год назад

Fully agree. Always a pleasure to watch. Especially to hear that you have so many tools around with those beautiful names.😃😃

Do not let your detractors reduce the enthusiasm you display when doing these remarkable restorations! We love to see the work and the terrific results.

I can honestly say watching you take this car apart and putting it back together has been one of my favorite videos yet. Great job.

@paulwitzman941 Год назад

It’s amazing how well Scott knows these Grand Ams! He makes this huge rebuild project look like routine maintenance. I have really enjoyed this car rebuild, too.

@SurferJoe46 Год назад

Yup! This is even better than the Mustang thingy.

@terrallputnam7979 Год назад

You really put quality in every build. Whether it's a $80,000 or a $800 car, you do s great job saving these cars for the road.

@BDKennels Год назад

If anyone can take credit for keeping a certain segment of the automotive world alive it's you and the Grand Am. Well done Sir! I've enjoyed every rescue. And I've started to notice tore up Grand Ams around town... Not bad little cars.

Scott, why would anyone object to what you rebuild. I am always impressed with the quality of the work, the wry sense of humor and the pizza girl's rare appearances. Keep up the good work and keep Friday's interesting.

I wouldn't care what the negative people have to say. As long as you can turn a profit fixing these Grand Am's, there is nothing wrong with that. I enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the good work.

@SurferJoe46 Год назад

Keep it up Scott. I love your videos and they remind me of when I had to work for a living too --- 57 years worth. Keep paying into my Social Security though --- but we can eliminate the middleman and you can just send me the checks directly. Nice to know your wife can talk --- or that you let her talk this time. You're a quality dude -- keep it up.

@jeffscott3160 Год назад

A man who runs out of ratchet straps cannot really call himself a man! I really am enjoying watching you waste your time saving this old Pontiac. Watching you reinstall that rusty junction box bracket onto that freshly painted inner fender well was sooo satisfying! I could hear the clean freaks wailing all the way over here! I do miss the Pontiac brand though, after all they DID build excitement!

@jimwiskus8862 Год назад

Great show as always! I never cease to be amazed at your gift. You truly are gifted. The jack of all gnomes is branching out too. So nice to have the Pizza Close the show. She did a super job. See you when you publish your next installment.

You should pop down under and have a crack at sorting out one of our woeful Holdens! Great work as always, Scott, and kudos to Pizza Girl for her first speaking role.

@longhauler4330 Год назад

I really enjoy your videos. I just bought my wife a new Traverse and the first thing I did was go to your Amazon page and ordered several cans of the cavity wax and sealed up everything I could on the car. I also live in the land of corruption and rust!! Thanks for all the tips and great videos!!

@jesusuranga8857 Год назад

When I was in high school these cars were new and always wanted a Grand Am Gt I ended up with an Se but they were great cars they drive really nice and they are powerful, today I feel like buying one just because I see that you fix them and leave them like nothing happened I think there is still hope, just change all engine gaskets and those things will drive another 100k miles!

@Gordo101978 Год назад

I really enjoy these videos of you working on older model cars, very nostalgic but I do have one complaint this time, I wish you would've painted the bracket that holds the junction/fuse box, the engine bay looks soo nice painted and clean and that rusty bracket looks horrible, other then that, great videos, can't wait for the next one

@LouJustlou Год назад

Note to self....never make the Pizza Girl mad....she looks seriously strong ! Thanks for the video...amazing to watch you work.

@markbowen3638 Год назад

Great work Scott, you've obviously done loads of these but you sure make it look easy. The quality of your repairs and the attention to detail is what makes your channel such compulsive viewing. Oh and the sarcasm! Have a good weekend, best wishes to you the pizza girl and the painting gnome from the UK 🇬🇧

@yingvang3191 Год назад

Props to you for taking one for the RU-vid community. Definitely no money on his part but a demonstration video. Like 👍

@edweigman9683 Год назад

A slick way to do the brake lines! I would have struggled to do them one at a time.

@chiefgeek2020 Год назад

I bet they ran a bigger wire from the alternator to the starter and removed both before selling the car (common practice with high power stereo, part of the Big 3 upgrade)

@marinastuable Год назад

That junction box bracket is setting my ocd off, a wire brush and some paint man 😂😂😂

@paulmoir4452 Год назад

I'm sure you'd agree that not matching the brake lines with the rest of the underside was the better spent effort. Definitely not an OCD guy's car! :)

I think I need rust OCD pheraphy after seeing that bracket fitted. You can't even see it, but you know it there....! We used to have Lanica cars in the UK but then it rained 🌧 Great project 👍
