This channel is awesome! The amount of knowledge Jonathan has is amazing. I've watched him build hot rods, tow trucks , steam engines, you name it

My first car, still miss it

Johnathan, Where are you? Need new video.

U ever do the swap??

hi johnathan just thinking of you and id like to wish you and your family a merry christmas and a happy new year for 2025 see you soon 😎✌👍

Hey there Jonathan, what pressure plate & throw out bearing did you end up using on your T-5 / flathead caddy install?

The issue with mine is i cant make my cylinder go in any ideas with that?

Hi Rob, I tried messaging you a while back. I know where there is a really nice Kewanee boiler and Macon Iron works engine. You can have it for free with the understanding that you have to remove it from the property. It was steamed as recently as five years ago. Contact me if interested.

Dog barked to the big V12 and run away sared. 😂

I make steam so I can cut and chop wood to make more steam to cut and chop more wood so I can make more steam LO. L just joking But our Influencer has really let out his steam addiction. 😂😂😂

I was just thinking about it 20 some years ago.When I worked at Ace iron and metal on Grove port road columbus OH they had a giant clip share.We used it to cut up aluminum bumper reinforcements reinforcements and john boats Any large piece of aluminum that was difficult and hard to cut it would snap right into.Anyway they said it was originally a steam powered item

Jonathan, buddy.I know you aren't on KZbin as much as you used to be.But are you okay

THANKS fer postin lad !! I cain't always watch when ya post. MERRY CHRISTMAS EH !!

JW. i cant bleed my clutch system old 96 sierra 4.3L Just rebuilt the entire underside.

Good work old fart

I'm not sure you are going to see this but I thought of you when I saw this old Wrecker anyway it's a 1931 Cadillac Tow Truck or Tow Car anyway here is the link to the thing it is very cool piece of history kzbin.info/www/bejne/raTJZnaEbdigock

I know you are a very busy man, so I will keep it short. Merry Christmas to you and Your Family and a Happy New Year.

This isn't a limousine at all. This is merely a 4 door sedan, and this is not a Series 40, which is the Buick Special, the bottom-of-the-line Buick, this is a Series 80 Roadmaster, model 81. This was second to the top-of-the-line Series 90 Limited.

Hi Jonathan. Wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas.

It's been awhile. Hope all is well buddy.

Good job with the last engine in the film! 🙂

When are you getting back to rat rods and such?

@thebracketfactory

Incredible how true that flywheel is. Amazing engineering.

New subscriber here. I've seen a few of your videos in the past and just now joining in. Those hub caps look almost just like the ones on my 48 Champion 5 passenger coupe. Did they use the same ones for that long? I'm needing a set and that should make it somewhat easier to find if they were made that long...maybe? I'm seeing a lot of Studebaker content on youtube lately. Not sure if they are getting more popular or just the algorithm is showing more of them to me. Either way, I'm enjoying all the Studebaker videos.

God I miss Noah

There was a company that restored these steering wheels, but they retired. I know they sold the business and all the molds to someone but those guys haven’t started up the new business yet. After 57 the steering splines were different so you have to use a 56 or older wheel (or change the column) I have a wheel from a Commander sedan on mine because it cost 1/8th what the correct GH wheels cost now

Oh yeah, wheels: Chrysler and Ford rear-wheel drive cars use the same bolt pattern as Studes. I put wheels from a 2000 Ford Ranger on my 56. I also have a Turner disc brake conversion on mine and stock Stude wheels don’t fit over the calipers. I wanted to keep the stock caps I had so I went with the Ford wheels. The Chrysler ones fit fine on the car but full size wheel covers won’t stay on those wheels, only dog dish sized caps. I have 215-75-15 tires and they don’t rub at all.

1956, the best year of Studebakers👍🏼

Happy birthday praying God blesses you and your family

I'm missing your shoulders it's been about a month I really enjoy watching your steam engines and your mechanics you're a genius

Thanks for your knowledge of these electric vehicles nice to see technology saved from the scrap man

I thought its a 14mmx1.5

Hope all is well is well with you and your family not seen any new videos lately tc

I no these videos,I'm commenting on are 5 years old.But I say your a master with an engine no matter what they say.

i really miss the car videos, i know you are a busy man but i sure would like to see something done with that 1949 Dodge business coupe. Wish you and your family and friends a safe and happy holiday season. GOD BLESS.

I really like your discussion on fun for the money! Enjoy a classic car and spend money you can afford and be comfortable with. A Golden Hawk 56 in mint condition would cost you plenty, but you can get a decent nice driver and have as much satisfaction! GOOD JOB!!!!

Fin Nick's Garage U Tube

Ifn it works, it ain't stupid! Love your projects , keep up the good work!

Whats the static box for?

I drilled thousands of holes also with one of those drill press. 40 years worth of drilling. ❤

Can you buy some of these engines?

Can you buy an engine directly from him??

Great engine .. I have a 1000 series in my 1997 JCB

Amazing John,Ya out did yourself.
