I’ve been following you since before you got married and was working out of your dad’s garage “in town”. Don’t see any reason to jump ship now. Hang in there, take care of the main things, and we will be watching videos at the new and improved Corvette Ben Garage.
Life certainly takes priority over RU-vid. I'm not a hard core Corvette guy but really enjoy the detail you cover in general. I'll keep looking for the next ones whenever they come out.
So great to hear from you again..! You have a lot on your plate right now. If I was there, I would be helping you with it. Love all of the content and I learned more again here today. Things are going to get better soon for you, I KNOW IT…!
Just found your channel. I have my first dream Corvete and my first of 5. A 1972 Millie Miguel Red Coupe. I'm a retired cop. my cop buddies said once thst kid drops you'll never have a Corvette. Daugherty born July 6, First Corvette August 6, our 5th anniversary. 40 years later still have the 72. C4, 2 C5, C6 GS. I sent your share to my guy who just finished the first complete overhaul of all the brakes system and 40 year old u joints on half shafts. Oh steering column rubber was shot. Qefound two cracked exhaust manifold that are cracked. I made a mistake and had them powered coated with engine rebuild in 1998. Brake system last system. Now starting over again as needed. My daughter is getting this vett after I'm dead. My Only grandson wants the coming C8. Thanks for taking the time to share
The above mentioned Corvette except 2012 C6 GS are history. I sold my wife C5 224,000 miles to my mechanic first automatic for his wife. Yes, her milage, we had another we drove together with less milage. That C5 Z51 was also my autocross car. There not been one hose replaced it a 2000, and yes 224,000 miles Great car. My other C5 had 90,000 when we bought the Gran Sport. No garage queen on my house. My 72 150,000.
Hey man, we are all just excited for what comes next. Glad to see a new shop is on deck and new house. Here's hoping the process is smooth for you and the fam.
This was fine, Ben. Glad to see you and you're looking good. The oil drain pan looked like the La Brea tar pits. 😂 The sound effects/music was good. We all have lives.
As the proud owner of a 76 coupe in Dallas that I bought not running and driving. I can say I have learned so much, did 90% of the work myself and now drive it quite regularly (when its not over 100 (a/c not fixed yet)). Thanks for the videos they piont me in the right direction. Chris
Ben, yes, this video was better than no video. Much Better. I've missed you and I look forward to what you bring when you can. It's completely understandable why we won't be seeing you for a while. That's a lot of work ahead of you. I'm having the interior of my garage finished off. It's always been just wall studs since the house was built. Everything from my garage is stored in a POD in my driveway, and it's maddening. So I have a good idea of the bother that you're going through. Hang in there. And when you do post again it will be all the better from having missed you during this time.
An honest and clear update which I missed when you posted it. Looking forward to more videos, showcasing your work, fleet and your new base. Cheers and best wishes
Hey Ben, been a subscriber for quite a while and always enjoy your channel. I was starting to get a little concerned when the videos stopped and am relieved to know it’s just because of “life”. Sounds like all positive changes for you and your family. Looking forward to more content when you have the time. Congrats on the new home and shop!
Glad to see you back and good luck moving to your new place. Congratulations on this new phase I know you will do well and we will definitely wait for you to settle in and make new videos.
Congratulations on all the exciting events taking place in your life. C3 Corvettes are my favorite and your work is incredible. You are a truly talented young man.
You know Ben I've been watching your channel since you started with the Cadillac, sure not going to stop now ! take your time with your shop and of course family is first, and the shop is no small under taking, just sold our home in Jan. in AZ, and then made six trips to central TX, moving is all done, but shop is another story it is getting there day by day, I have a guitar shop, and starting a you tube channel and shot about a hundred video clips, but need to figure out Da Vinci resolve to get the videos edited, also a 1994 C4 followed me home this summer, polo green 80,000 original miles, just waiting on a new alternator, and a rebuilt bcm, then all the 28 year old computers will have been rebuilt, love to meet you some day, keep up the hard work !
Love your channel, have been watching for about three years now. C3 vettes are my favorite, I grew up during that era. Hope your family is doing well and I look forward to more wide body vidios.
Hope the whole moving thing will run well. The future will be bright, even at the moment there might so many things that need to be solved. And as always - we need some Noodles and Copstick occurs in the videos. ;)
Terrific! Surprise endings, mystery mobiles, et al! You were missed but I'm glad things are going well and, as always, I look forward to resumption of CB. Kudos!
Looked like just an ounce or two of water. Now that car looks like a good candidate for those Turbine mags you pulled off of another Vette last year. Congrats on the new place!!!!!
It's always the cheapest, stupidest part, till you ignore it!?!! I'd be willing to bet the exhaust was blocked up by critters! Great channel by the way!!! 🙂🙃😉👍
My 1975 L82 sat from 1984 when the TH400 started slipping, my dad bought it in 2015 had it up and running in 2016 unfortunately he passed in 2017 I inherited the car I had the original tranny rebuilt with a shift kit and have driven it every summer since.
Many other RU-vidrs will make videos of moving into their new houses/shops/etc. Make a video of that and see how well it does. You can make more if the views are there.
Those turbine rims you got are worth some cash. Specially if you have the knock off spiners that go with em I have a full set for my 1989 drift truck ( my icon ).
Good video.I was really interested because my corvette that im trying to get started has a slow crank just like that Any idea why the crank was so slow Starter? weak coil? Thanks again for the video.
Hey Ben, enjoy your videos, always learn something from them. I just picked up a 77 vette coupe, black, 4 speed, 70k, nice car but there's a noise in the rear end when I go around corners and backup, a friend said he thought it was the clutch pack in the rear, have you had any experience with that?......Thanks Ralph.....
Hey Ben, I have a very nice 73, 350 auto and can't get the kickdown to engage. After looking further, I noticed that the kickdown switch is located WAY up over the pedal and there is nothing to engage the switch. Is there some type of linkage bar or something that is not on my gas pedal that I am missing? Help.
