Yes, Joe, you are correct. The black '62 is a MKII as all were designated in that year. Along with the recessed grill, rear Morris Mini light clusters mounted below the boot lid are another exterior change. Thanks for your interest!!

Thanks for sharing you '37 Packard story. We agree, solid as a vault! See our other videos for more on this car and the vault style door closings!

hey dude, we got ya and we agree!!! OBS, GMT400!! Thanks for setting us straight and your interest!

Ahhh, Steve. some of those old fiberglass boats need some love too. We do appreciate the wooden ones tho! Agree

That GMC V6 was a massive motor. Many would open the hood not paying attention to the "V6" callout on the side and immediately think it was a big block V8.

Cool, we were unsure what the nature of the craft were. Thanks!

Great tip, we'll give that a try!! Thanks for sharing and thanks for your interest in the '64

Good question, and we agree!

We thank you for you interest and nice comment. It is indeed a very unique suspension setup and design. Makes for an amazing ride even by today's luxury car standards.

We agree, the C2 Corvettes are really something special and ahead of their time! and of course at the same time, speak the look of the 60's all day long.

Thanks for the report and interest! sorry to hear there is not a better gasser organization present. Many strips closing, and we are fortunate to have a following here in the southeast. Best of luck, Tony!!

Just a great solid driver and tank!!!

@classicperformance I believe it!! I got one too. Absolutely love it 😏

@@fighttheswine Yes! Cool!

Yes, we agree it’s a great tribute to the originals, and the licensing is a great thing for fans! See our GT40 Holman Moody shop tour with Lee Holman for the real ones.

@@classicperformance I'd love to, but unfortunately I don't live in the USA. I'll still check out the website though.

Here's the link! www.downforcemotorsports.com/?gclid=CjwKCAiArva5BhBiEiwA-oTnXS9MbiHXYT5cu_fidJn6PAvFdXN3NY7JnyJQXu7g5qAEnXY4j-qr3RoCm9oQAvD_BwE

Great Idea, and we agree!!!

Good Question, how about a Fiskar?

Haha, yes! They will love it!!

Yes, makes a "splat" of a sharp racket. We plan to do an X pipe with flow masters and side exit in front of rear wheels. Stay tuned!!

Indeed so, a true warbird expert and pilot.

Jim, thanks for your interest and we agree, the T-6 is an amazing aircraft and has stood the test of time and it speaks to how solid the aircraft is and how well designed it is. At 4,158 lbs, she's a solid bird and as you stated, it is evident flying one.

thanks! we appreciate your interest and comment. More to come on these planes.

Yes, The composite components for the A5 are manufactured at ICON's facility in Tijuana, Mexico. he A5 is completed and certified for flight at ICON's Aircraft Completion Center in Vacaville, California. This is where the rest of the aircraft manufacturing process takes place, including paint, systems installation, final assembly, testing, and aircraft delivery

Not bad, I am 6'1" and it is doable and better than most all campers of this size. The complete fiberglass construction also lends to no issues with water or moisture you might have or worry about with others that have "wet" bathroom combos.

I remember my dad doing that with our Scamper pop-up camper to ensure no bearing issues as it had little wheels that ran very fast (RPM). Easier to catch a warm bearing and deal with it at a gas station than it getting red hot and stranding you somewhere you don't want to be. I carry a grease gun and spare bearing set with me too. Easy to service on the road.

all in not including motor and rigging. about 8k which includes the restored platform you see in Part 1

and they took it just fine... till Ford said "we're done"

It's great to hear about your Ford memories! Makes for some fantastic early life experiences, for sure. Check out our other GT40 and Ford content and more to come. Thanks for your interest

@g3n3sis50 you are correct, the 348 did come out in '58 and was considered a big block. We were referencing the generation mark IV and it's debut in '65 and the "mystery motor" variant sneaking into NASCAR in '63. We might not have been clear on all that. Appreciate your interest.

@ you made it clear! Thank you for responding!

Sounds like a great project, Steve. Appreciate your input and hearing about your project!

Indeed so, we appreciate your support, @MrScottb2y!!

Many thanks, and thank you for your interest and support, Robert!!

we like that 4-speed option. Those days are gone too, sadly. It's our understanding that the WT (work trucks) had two headlights and the upper trim levels all had four. Thanks for sharing with us!

@classicperformance Yes sir the 4 speeds were and are good trans but they put the 5 speeds and now 6 etc for better fuel mileage. But I like my 4 speeds. My buddy I got both trucks from many has said has the largest Square body Chevys Junk yard in Tn and he told me he has never had anybody come needing a Bulldog trans cause theirs went bad. Thanks for the info on the headlights I had never heard that I preciate it. I'm just starting on getting the 89 going the fuel pump is bad but it's not beatup and abused. I've got a 94 Dodge Ram 2500 all original I'm selling. 5.3 5 speed. New Quality paint job 2 tone red and silver like factory. Original chrome wheels and it's never been off road 4 wheeling. Many new parts and 139,000 original miles. Sharp and good truck. $8500.00 if you might know someone looking for a real nice truck. Thanks for getting back to me I realy preciate it buddy.

Good price on that Ram! It'll sell!

@classicperformance Yes sir I feel like it's a honest and fair price and maybe somebody looking for a real good sharp truck that maybe can't afford a expensive truck will get it. I'm only selling it cause I wasn't looking for another truck but I went to my buddy cause his son had a steel bumper that fits my Dodge and their hard to find a used one and I went to look and bought it and then he showed me the 89 GMC and I thought that will go with my 88 and so I bought it. So I'm only selling Dodge cause I don't need 3 trucks and to put the money into the 89. I know it's been a while but you still got your GMC it was a good one?

OK, we had thought it was "H" starts you out in a higher gear vs "D" starts you out in the lowest ger of the transmission.

Go for it! a '53 is a great car too. With the name of "Packard" on it, they were all of the finest quality! Keep us posted!

@Cuccos19 We agree with you abut favorite aircraft and the not-so-often seen or sought after wonderful P-39. Cool factor, the P40 indeed has it with the aggressive mouth and teeth. All WWII aircraft were very unique and all have very attractive qualities. And yes, the P-38 (called the twin tail devil by the Japanese) is most likely our favorite and most intriguing of them all. Thanks for your interest!

Good catch. How about Browning M2 .50 cal.

it did rock a fair bit due to the very narrow wheels on the center lift trailer. We chose the center lift trailer for construction so that the working surface would be fairly low to the ground vs a trailer with outboard wheels and pontoon bunks. You would not want to take this craft down the road on a center mount pontoon trailer. It is perfectly fine and happy on a tandem axle outboard wheel type pontoon trailer. Thanks for asking!

George, you are exactly correct. If it had a 2-speed supercharger this would have increased the operational ceiling of the craft and possibly making the most capable and successful of all throughout the war.

We are glad you enjoyed it and appreciate your support and comment!! We agree, a very significant and important aircraft!

Used the blue foam sill gasket material on a roll. See Pt. 2 at the :35 mark for how this was installed. Also exterior base caulking was used all the way around against the sill board, and also against the exterior sheeting for extra protections. No water entry in even the hardest of blowing rain! See pt2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXqafYd6jNeCqZY

You must have only watched Part 1. It's a 6-part series and every step and fastener is shown and explained including the success test launches and final launch and christening. Keep watching.

Thanks for your interest! Thom is a fantastic pilot and an awesome spokesperson for the sport and for these historical planes.

Yes, agreed, they do have some issues, but overall excellent trouble free trucks!

Thanks for watching, we're glad you liked the decorating and exterior! It's been a big hit as an AirBB and out family and friends :) Very stable on the water too.

Thanks! We will keep that in mind for the future. As slow as she goes, haven't been a problem at all. Thanks for the interest!

We agree! It's amazing what these planes can do in the very capable such as Thom! He's also a wonderful spokesperson for the sport and for these historic planes. Thanks for your interest!
