Things GET WEIRD with my Superbird problems, and looking inside my MILLION MILE Cummins engine

Hoovie keeps buying Ferrari's, he had to get a Ferrari expert in there

And he seems to be really calm. That's the most important thing working on Ferrari's 😂

Thats what the Red Bull pit team does in the off season.

I like Daniel already

@@Olhado256 he has honest hard working man vibes

Daniel's mom is posting again.

Love the new guy jumpin in. One of those rare ones that is ahead of rest. Cool you noticed as well. You probably employe people. You get it.

The whole real vs fake thing is so funny to me. It's like a kit car Cobra versus an original. The better car if done up right would be the modern kit Cobra. If you want the experience of what an original was like then by all means spend million/s on one. If you want the better car to drive you can spend 5% of that. It more like you are buying a story versus buying a better vehicle.

@@discgolfdetails9889 5% isnt going to build you a very good kit car either. I've been there, and 5% isn't a realistic number at ALL.

@@davelowets I've seen used ones sell for 50K. Sure you can spend 100-150K, but it's still probably worth 50K done.

@@discgolfdetails9889 $50k out of $150k is 33%. Still much more than 5%

don't contact dodge....they'll want to buy it and figure out how they messed up! lol "we cannot have engines that last a million miles".....

@@muskokamike127 dodge didn't make the engine.

@@muskokamike127 nah, they'll probably just film one of their "Long Live Ram" commercial spots.

@@muskokamike127 Dodge didn't build that engine...

I thought you would get a Viper for it.

lmao

Cummins , not “Cummings” lol

@@cameronsienkiewicz6364 I'm Cummings

so we get hammered with bourbon for ??????? everthings fine, ok i am fine with that;))

Hey Jack, spoiler alert next time please lmao 😆

Yep, pay for cosmetics... and tinker at home to finish it.

*raises hand* I worked in a classic car dealer as the ONLY mechanic for a pool of about 50 cars, 30 in and 30 out a month. I'm surprised that Superbird wasn't sold by my ex-boss. Specialized in '70 Chevelle SS, tried to not touch anything else unless it made a fat profit. Which meant it was a cheap piece of shit with lipstick on it. Old American cars post restoration are the worst things in the world to work on, it's so rare to find them done right and proper. It's funny that the survivor cars he rarely bought were actually the best cars out of the lot. Says a lot about most restoration jobs...

He complains. Way too much..these are small problems ,indicative of mediocre mechanics . You have way too much money I say. I’d never work for you..

You could not have said it better, it looked fine cosmetically but few things didn’t work.

was half expecting tyler to just go, thats not a knife

yeah pulling knifes on his #1 customer lol the Christmas spirit

Ha! Yep, I agree. And, I helped pay this bill with my eyeballs.

Gotta put gas in the Yacht....

That wasn't a knife. Watch JohnRoss and Gabe's shenanigans working on the Geo Tracker to see some funny bits with knives.

Kill 2 super birds in one stone 😂

The longer the video the more money he makes, 1 20min vid pays more than 2 10min videos. Notice how its just over 20 min other RU-vidrs do the same

I’m happy it’s like Christmas

Actually I loved the way it went, 348 was such a surprise it was just a hose. Felt second hand relief. No wonder it's Hoovie's favorite car.

Shh youll ruin it for us all

True:) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-F0OjZfv7ZfA.html ۔۔۔

agreed, have the records to show the work done properly. Worth more to the car and to him in the long run to treat the engine and car right, now.

yea, saved the money on another engine out, put a little bit towards steel valveguides

lol reminds me of a post I read on reddit a while back of a comic store owner who had a "Hoovie customer" for years, then when he met the customer for the first time he insulted them greatly, the customer didn't come back and the store went under as a result. luckily Tyler isn't pulling any knives on Wizard yet... don't give him any ideas!

I think HOOVIE keeps him in business

@@billyduffany3387 he dosnt keep him in business... But he has defently sent his business fowards. additional income from add revenue. Able to get more staff. If tyler didnt go to the wizards he would still be a successful business

@@Local11Sam i was just being a smartass

That’s a good theory

Those late 60's early 70's Dodges and Chrysler Vehicles never had good panel Fittment even when they were new.

Totally agree. Not hooking up the horn/speedometer cable and driving with that awful noise from the air compressors indicate someone fell out of love with it.

@@MJTAUTOMOTIVE Which Yankee car manufacturer has ever had good flush, gap, fit and finish? They are infamous for the opposite.

I also think an owner may have burned a bridge with a shop previously and they just didn’t bother to finish it properly.

Over double that

Wizard said it was 80k this year or something in his previous video I think it was

His RU-vid revenue is plenty higher than that.

I think the point that people were making is that unscrupulous shops/owners can and do swap tags from one body to the next.

@@runner3033 It’s always a possibility

With that car's history mileage is irrelevant. Just weird it was left unhooked

more likely the car was half-assed put together and sat

Is the speedo even tied to the odometer?

It was fully disclosed that the car is a partial re-body. Do you SERIOUSLY think a few extra thousand miles would destroy the value? And, Mr. Expert, if the seller was TRULY trying to deceive he would have reconnected the speedo cable prior to sale. Why would he leave evidence behind. Next time try THINKING before you open your mouth.

Nothing particularly to do with farmers, this has been going on since speedometers were first fitted to vehicles. Used to be able to wind the mileage back with an electric drill in reverse.

It reminds me of a million+ mile Nissan Frontier that still looks like it's barely been used

I cant believe that there is a more or less rust free Dodge truck out there

@@JohnWayneCheeseburger it's not rust free, it has rust on the rear quarters and the drivers door bottom lol he's nuts to put money into the thing

@@pummer but that craziness is why we watch lol

Al Bundy's old dodge?

Torsion bars is what made Mopars handle better than the comp back then, I love Mopars from the sixties and seventies for that reason!

No, modern springs/shocks are far superior.

I thought it would sound more like the Roadrunners Mee-Meep.

😆

It's because he doesn't know anything else about it - has to hire mechanics. I have no idea why he has an automotive channel. lol

@@SirenaSpades probably because he has a passion for cars? When did being a car enthusiast require mechanical knowledge?

@@SirenaSpades where do you people come from 😂

Yes please! Hah. That must be tracked in an ECU though right? Wonder if it has ever been replaced.

I never pay attention to those because they can glitch and reset. Not super common but not super UNcommon either.

22.2k @45mph average , 16.6k & 60mph , not rocket science

@@andyscott0 my 2003 with 235,000 has 9250 hours. 25.4 mph avg. I understand the math but I just want to see how many hours.

@@andyscott0 Doesn't account for idle time, which diesels tend to do a lot of for multiple reasons.

You shouldn't daily drive any exotic car's, they are really not designed to be driven every day. Best thing with them is to run them up on a weekly basis and that's it. Mclaren car's are basically not a car to be driven much at all. Even the famous McLaren f1 road car with a BMW engine after five thousand miles went wrong. Jaguar Xk120 even says should not be driven more than 200 miles a year when it was new.

@@chriscollins550 This is pretty much it. Driven frequently, not extensively. This reminds me that my baby, although nowhere near as special as any of the mentioned vehicles, has been sitting in my garage undriven for three years now. I took it apart to paint it, then quit doing drugs because my dad got diagnosed with stage four cancer, and I had a kid all of a sudden. Haven't had the energy or motivation to do anything about it since then... I do have three years clean this month, but I'm afraid by the time I feel like getting out of bed in the morning again (when hopefully... not if), my car will have sat so long it'll be a mess 😭 I know I am over sharing, sorry. Beauty of the internet though.. What're you gonna do about it! 😋

@@danielnelson4881 been it that same dark place two, just instead it was my brother. Sadly lost him to cancer. You know I found at first it was a fight with in my self to get back in my garage! But I then found it was my place at peace with everything away from everyone else. Managed completel E type jaguar XKE for American people. Then finished my brother motorbike he always dreamed of finishing. I will not say it gets easy as time move on! But I will say you'll find away of dealing with it in your own way. Anyway take care my friend. You can find me if you ever need to

@@chriscollins550 You're awesome man... That's all I can say to that, you're an awesome human being. Keep being awesome, because it sure is appreciated. I know you made my day! Sorry to hear about your brother, but I'm glad to hear you finished his dream bike. That's awesome. I'll bet the first ride on that baby won't soon be forgotten.

I bought a car with a timing belt date & miles written on the cover. The garage didn’t have prove but they told me it was correct. A year later the belt disintegrated and the tow truck saw what was left of the belt and assured me that was NOT replaced on time. Hard lesson. Car cost me $3000 and that belt failure made it literally worthless. The high performance interference engine was the only redeeming factor of that car.

It is cheaper to do now than to wait and have to pull the engine again later.

@@RandomGuyDan that doesnt make a good video though , this guy seems to do things weird or backwards but its all part of his youtube channel.....

The engine will have to come out again in 5/6 years to do the belts again. They’re betting that the guides will last that long.

I would be inclined to do the valve guides as well. Peace of mind and all for him, but mainly because it's a + for when he goes to sell it so he can say it's fully sorted and appeal to a wider group of potential buyers.

He probably won't keep that car that long.

I was thinking the same thing but I'm not a professional mechanic so maybe I'm wrong.

I also wouldn't of screwed around with that old harmonic damper on that Cummins engine.

tells you something.

Watch the VinWiki video with Wizard, he explains the whole thing. He’s no longer a service center and more of a production studio at this point.

And then the other car says I'm a Ferrari too wow the love of cars

Cummins*

@@clappgen5.949 autocorrect

Cummins wins.

The Ram is impeccable and looks to still have value. The LS400 is worth scrap prices. But I agree. Quickness, speed, mileage, cornering. Something measurable.

@@daviddavis1322 To be fair, the RAM has more rust and I believe has had more transmissions.

The bots are working overtime today

He has an aluminum car hauler somewhere

That thing only gets driven to a car show or two and sits

Zero content, click bait or profit from just buying a car for his collection with zero issues. 🤣🤣

@@BBBILLY86 getting worse

Makes it even worse that he complained to the auction company and got money back for basically no real issues at all

@@JoshOutdoorsGR eh, money's money, and the car was broken after all, just not as badly as he believed.

100%.

Gear driven cams are used often on racing engines.

They probably exceed the NVH standard for gasoline engines. That's why they're not common.

In semi-trucks they are mostly used, even here in germany, where no company wants their engines to run a million kilometers like 30 years before

EXACTLY what I was thinking! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AKKGpZyWj3M.html

If it wasn't abused, probably pretty decent.

1:1

They are pretty stout. It's probably pretty decent.

With 30 bar in a diesel, 3 or 4bar missing isn't making any difference.

@@JohnDoe-zr6bk that isn’t exactly the question. Now is it.

Send it to Mark Worman at Graveyard Carz, He knows more about these cars than just about any one else. And he can restore it to show room new, it might take a year or two and a 100K plus but he can do it.

Absolutely ! Got bit that way a few times ! 😅

I’d imagine that at a million miles, that was done a service or two ago.

Mark from Graveyard Carz would have a fit if he that thing.

Seems to function like a dishwasher. Reasonable, since they do similar things.
