I just picked the 3 random winners for a B'laster T-shirt / can of Multimax Lube. If you don't see a check mark next to my name and a heart on your comment then its a scammer impersonating me. I keep blocking them and they keep making new accounts. Anyway... 24 hrs to comment back and claim otherwise it moves on to the next randomly selected winner. Good luck! BTW, merch link stopped working... Check out NNKH hats here: teespring.com/nnkh-hat?pid=763&cid=103367

Dry gas or isopropyl alcohol should take that sap off. It works with pine pitch but it does take some elbow grease. Use it along with a plastic razor blade. Gus has got to be one of the cutest puppies I’ve seen.

Hi Timo. I'm wondering which aspects of Chris' journeys stand out as signifying the differences in Freedom between USA and Germany. I'm not from USA although I do live in North America and, though I've never been to Europe, I don't think of Germany as a Country that's strict on personal freedoms. Is it really that different?

Loving the Torino content. My grandfather owned a 74 Grand Torino and my favorite show was Starsky and Hutch. So when me and him would hang out my favorite part was riding in the Torino. My grandfather was a giant of a man, specially for his generation. He would sit with the seat all the way back with his head leaning to either side because of his height and his knees along both sides of the column.

@rickloera9468 2 года назад

That must have been a tight fit for your grandfather. I have a 72 Gran Torino and I am only 5 ft 10 inches. With the seat all the way back I am still wanting for more room. His probably had a power seat which gives you a lot more leeway. My 77 Cougar which is basically the same car had a power seat and that really helped a lot. They are beautiful cars.

Thank you so much for the trip down memory lane. I had a 1975 Elite in high school, and she was my pride and joy. I used to try and drag race it while cruising, and eventually blew up the 351 windsor. After that we put in a 351 Cleveland with 4bbl, intake, headers, exhaust, and a comp cams performance cam. She was a dog out of the hole, but after 25 mph she was hard to beat. Remember beating a 350 IROC Z, doing over 100 down main street! LOL... The holie goat reminded me of my friend I was always out to beet in his 72 Buick Skylark. After the motor swap I smoked him. Wish I could send a pic of my car in the day she was a real looker. God I miss that car. Even though I have a 2008 GT Mustang that would eat it for breakfast, I still have dreams of finding it in the back yard under a tarp. Only dreams... Thanks guys.

@moparman1962 Год назад

I owned and drove a red 1974 Ford Gran Torino my last year of high school and first few years of college...I LOVED THAT CAR. When I saw the title of your first half of this revival-drive-rescue, it caught my attention and that is how I discovered your channel. Both videos were VERY interesting, entertaining, fun and cool. Kudos to you, Jen, Gus and the car (shall we call her, Agnes?)...all four of you were a great team, great mix and an integral part of the whole two-part classic American automotive mini-movie you created. Your explanations of what you needed to replace, why and how you fixed all of the issues was great, what a teaching moment for younger people and older people who may not be very knowledgeable about cars and auto mechanics. I loved it, please do more like it featuring early American iron from the 1950's-1976 or so. Thanks for the great content! (Like many Americans, I have watched Derek's 'Vice Grip Garage' videos since the very beginning BECAUSE OF his revival-drive-it-home adventure videos.)

@talonhamand3904 2 года назад

I wouldn’t have minded a part 3 of this video even if it was just 1000 miles of nothing. It was awesome to see all the interesting places you guys stopped even if it was just for the night. Also at the end of the video that rear side panel in the sun looks real good from where dalton did the little detail. That car would probably clean up really well.

Hey Chris! Been watching RU-vid since 2019 and just finally ran into your channel recently. The first episode I watched was you guys and the Gran Torino out of Vegas. Blew my mind when you stopped by The Valley Tavern in Mohave Valley, AZ. We bought our first house right behind "The Vern" in 1985. Part of it back then was a Bell gas station where I could ride up to the pump on my 1984 Honda 250r atc and mix the 2 stroke oil and gas in the tank and ride up and down those dirt roads and yes people do cruise home on those dirt roads a little buzzed after a night at the Vern. Thanks for a great show. I'm hooked. Watching you work on the Chevelle right now! All four of my kids were born in Lake Havasu back then! ✌️🇺🇲

We camped out in it often. Usually near some fishing hole we found. Grabbed a 12 pack and a pack of hotdogs and a dozen donuts and between that and the trout we caught, poor man's surf and turf over a campfire was our breakfast, lunch and dinner, lol.

For the fuel vapor lock problem, I've gone to a wrecking yard back in the day & found an old power steering cooler like the one already on your power steering pump & found a place under the car near the fuel line. Close to the fuel pump is best. Route the fuel thru it to cool the fuel. If you can mount it where air can hit it while being shielded from damage it will stop vapor lock, a common problem back in the day in Texas. Just showing my age here (I still know how to set points...).

We used to typically wrap the fuel lines at the engine area with tin foil to solve vapor lock issues. It worked in the 60s. Great video for a trip with a 48 year old Ford. If you could've resolved the fuel delivery issues at the beginning, then your trip back home would've been almost trouble-free!

@NoNonsenseKnowHow 2 года назад

From what I understand it mostly starts down where the fuel pump is mounted at the Block and it starts boiling in the fuel pump. So going with it and electric pump seems to be the most popular upgrade

Great video. Interesting filmmaking, good mechanical content, great editing, cute dog and lady, non annoying personality. Appreciate it. Keep up the good work.

When you have the knowledge and are able to apply it. Anything is possible. Very inspiring video. Kudos on taking life by the horns.

Thank you both for the entertainment. I watched this instead of a movie tonight. This was a way better way to look at America than a normal movie - we got to see so much and meet real people along the way. The car was a bonus. I keep thinking this car was in a 70s TV program but I can't think which one - does anyone else remember?

Thank You for the Vacation and Beautiful Country Side!! That I haven't seen in 50 years!! Had A "BLASTER" of a Time!!

That roadtrip was simply epic! Thanks for bringing us along!

Yes, still watching your videos from 1yr.ago. Great video to watch during Christmas holiday 2023.

@robertsmall2061 Год назад

I’m a newer subscriber and I totally enjoyed the whole video where the 3 of you allowed us to come along and have a great time and enjoy the trip with you. A very pleasant experience and actually can’t count how many times I smiled at you all having a great time creating awesome memories as you also bring back one of those oldies but goodies and making it road worthy again. Thank all you again. Have a great one. Cant wait til the next video.

Wow, when i first started watching this video, I thought you might be very little educated on mechanics stuff. Boy, was i wrong, You are very talented at analyzing mechanical issues and fixing them! I thought wow, that is really risky going across the country with such an old vehicle where anything could go wrong, but you fixed everything without really being stranded! Nice job and video. Gus and Jen were very cute and patient!

@r12001995 Год назад

Ohh, no wonder, I saw your youtube pic. You are an ASE certified technician! Very nice.

Nice to see someone in the local area ( in Vineland NJ) doing a channel like this. Everyone else is in Midwest of Out west. Great episode, 1st time viewer. Did a similar trip once. In 1984 from Vegas to Tampa in a 70 Buick Skylark 4door. It was different, for sure.

@alancarter207 6 месяцев назад

Thanks very much reminded me of the 70s when I used to drive round England and Europe with a old banger, had a blast!!

@azarellediaz4892 Год назад

What a video, an accomplishment that started with an abandoned car, got patched on the road a bit at a time, across some of the breathtaking views in this great nation plus seeing a man having fun with his pup and a great pretty lady. Man, you have a great life. 😊

@64b09 2 года назад

Your skills as a mechanic sure helped on this trip. Another great video. Would enjoy seeing more journeys like this on your channel.

@rollerdavem Год назад

Loved the trip! Definitely do this again. Loved the drone footage, and your glamorous wife didn't hurt the video any. Makes me wish I were young again and could have adventures like this.

@johnasher594 4 дня назад

Great video experience. So much better than the same old stuff. I enjoy the travel vlog as much as the wrenching. Thanks guys.

Such an awesome trip. Thanks for taking us along. Looking forward to more of these vacation type of videos. Thanks Chris, Jen, and of course Gus. Best wishes, Deb

Fantastic! That was a GREAT road trip! Thanks so much for bringing us along... a real treat! Would love to see more of this type of video. Actually anything you do and share is fun to watch! Thanks again and have a great weekend!

@kevinmccarey5015 Год назад

Hello Mr. No and Jen, Great video on your journey and glad you are back home and safe. You have a very calm approach to most things especially when the car broke down at times. Great content, Be well

@IB-lx1wu Год назад

Great job with great perseverance. You gave me inspiration for my 1985 GMC diesel truck that I'm using and bought in 2009. Have done a lot of work to it before and after the flood.

@domslivin 2 года назад

What a fun trip, hopefully you do more video's like this...it was very entertaining. Glad you know so much about cars because most people would have quit a long time ago and you just kept taking things in stride and kept right on going. Love to see people keeping these older cars on the road, wish more people would do the same.

@garywdeffenbaugh9829 Год назад

First timer on your channel and I'm hooked.. Retired aviation mechanic, I'm a gear head myself and I always enjoy seeing old cars being brought back to life. Looking forward to your next post.

@RaymondMills-fe6pl 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for taking me with you on that cross country journey had a great time take care of that eye 😅just joking keep up the awesome work big thumbs up to your team Jen and big Gus 👍

@jimeisele6046 Год назад

The ramp/intersection that you saw in Missouri is called a "Diverging Diamond Interchange". They are usually find them in metro areas where there isn't enough room for a huge cloverleaf, while at the same time allowing traffic from all directions access to the opposing Hwy in all directions. They actually work pretty well. Nice job getting that boat back East!

@boboliver6851 2 года назад

Thanks Chris and Jen , I thought it was awesome to get to know you and Gus a little better with a road trip. It’s always cool to see things fixed on the fly. You guys are great together and hope to see more. Peace and love

Amazing video, took me like 6 hrs to watch the whole thing while running some errands, but I finished it. Super cool experience for real, the Torino made it across almost the whole country.
