1935 Chevy Barn Find Goes Under The Knife 🪓 Full Revival of a Forgotten Classic

[@TimothyKepner]

I am 78 years old and my first car was a 37 chevy. I would like to thank you for respecting this 35 they were a grand car. If a person takes the time to love and care for them, they will outlast most people and will be able to be passed on to the next generation. Again Thank You for all that you have done for this great automobile.

[@valuepack2]

Good sir, as a 41 year old whose first car was a '87 Escort GT, count me down as jealous.

[@Must-Stangingarage]

I love his videos as well he doesn't destroy to create things like bad Chad I quit watching him completely, and even on the chicken truck he's taking rusted out destroyed vehicles,

[@1tojo]

I'm 83 and I drove a 37 2 door sedan to High School and just passed it down to a 36 year old grandson he had it shipped to Fairbanks Alaska says he will keep it and pass it down in the family

Yours is the best "1935 Chevy.. Canadian only... one year only... Master series only... Knee action suspension only..." channel on KZbin. Thanks for the lovely ride along. And lastly, I heard a rumor the shed guy was a technical advisor for the Wile E. Coyote cartoons. Cheers from your loyal viewer

[@CarterAutoRestyling]

Thanks Randahl! I've heard a lot of rumors about that shed guy, but it wouldn't be polite to repeat them in public.

The kazoo and polka music was a nice touch!

[@phatdaddy1955]

Indeed!!

[@JorgeFernandez-uc9qb]

That is a great looking car and I want to say Thanks for taking the time to make it usable again and not butcher it up. That was interesting to watch about the rear end. I have spring bushings Ihave to remove from my 51 Pontiac and you have given me a great way. Love the shirt examples and I will be buying one when the store is set up.

[@danblythe2979]

Don't care what anyone says, you do excellent work. Be it turning a wrench or doing body work. Always giving it your all

[@KiwiStag74]

Fantastic, mate! Great to see the old 35 on her feet and rolling again out and about under her own power (and feel free to add in here any additional well-worn homily that you particularly are fond of, to state that a car is driving as per its true purpose. What the hay - you deserve it). I applaud your desire to keep a 90 year old beast as original as she can be - although making allowances for improvements to driving comfort over the years. My vehicles are only 50 years old, but they too have things that never came standard but are improvements over what was there originally....like sound deadening that does not soak up water and rot out floors and firewalls, added sound proofing in places that modern cars also have it to improve the long-distance runs by reducing the amount of drumming by the panels and lastly, a floor console - hand built and customised to look like a factory fitment - that has cup holders and a place to plug in (and store) my cell phone. Two of them also have period correct auxiliary gauges mounted in a custom holder under the dash in a period style that again looks like it may have been factory fitted on an upscale model (which they aren't). All in the name of good taste and additional driving pleasure, but keeping the rest of the car looking and driving perfectly in original form. In a lot of ways it would be easier to replace all the mechanical underpinnings with a more modern setup that you can still get parts for, but the older vehicles were built to be taken apart, cleaned up, regreased and put back together and actual replacement of a major component wasn't done unless it was totally shagged due to lack of maintenance or many thousands of miles. Modern mechanics are lost in this scenario, being taught only to pull bits off to exchange for new ones. I remember taking my then-30 year old 1954 Austin A30 for its 6 month inspection and being told by my Dad to spend 30 mins under it with a grease gun first. I didn't spend 30 minutes - I got out the service manual and found every nipple on the car, then grabbed the oil can and did every lubrication point they specified....and even pulled the speedometer cable out of the back of the speedo unit, pulled the inner out and regreased that as per spec. The car failed its inspection on a worn tyre, but everything else was fine. The steering was quite a lot lighter after the maintenance too, which spurred me on to perform this every 500, 1000 or 3000 miles as per the book. Sure - even in 1984 I was clocking up 500 miles a week in it, so the weekly regreasing (and brake adjustment) ended up being part of the weekend ritual, but as a 15-year-old, what else did I have to do? I loved hearing the whines of the gears in the gearbox when you took us for a run in the old beast and that engine is an absolute peach. Man she runs good! I also noticed you changing gears in a way that I too change them in a gearbox that might tell me off if I get too impatient and try to push for a gear when the synchros haven't quite lined it up yet. I've noticed so many people try to drive old cars like modern ones and not 'feel' the box to tell them when its time to shift. For the most part, the gearbox will tell them off and they will put it down to the age of the vehicle rather than themselves not listening or treating it with the respect it deserves. You have obviously spent a lot of time in old vehicles and it's wonderful to see another kindred spirit keeping an old vehicle in such great condition and doing his best to keep it fettled in the traditional way as much as possible. She's a solid old girl that has survived longer than others much younger, so I think she deserves to have such a sympathetic owner who will get her out and about to be admired. Awesome stuff, Kyle. All the best

[@B.G.1]

Congrats on getting the 35 drive able. Very cool car. That was pretty high tech in its day. I enjoyed each video, especially the front end which i knew nothing about. Glad you kept it stock. Love the sound of straight cut low gear.

[@johnclauser7392]

Good to see the 1935 Chevy running again. Good job!

I love the red green show funny as hell and can be related to a few friends work.totally different veiw on life.

What a sweet car. Well worth the work to keep it going. Nice shirt.

[@Ecosse57]

i respect your quest to preserve this old gal. from the independent front suspension to the overhead valves it looks like chevy was adding a bit of sophistication to their offerings. super cool you can get nos parts too. say 'hi' to the kitties for their fans!

Kyle you are the perfect steward for this car. Great stuff as always and thanks for taking us along.

Really wish we could give more than 1 thumbs up. Looks like it rides so dang smooth and sounds great doing it. Great job plugging away till she is usable.

What a beautiful piece of art Kyle. I love channels that aren’t all about trailer queens and burnout machines. Saw you at Scott’s live last night. Have a great week. 👍

[@jamesschaffner4916]

This is great...great job of preserving a piece of history...

Kyle. You shift with the click click movement. I was taught that almost sixty years ago. I’ve passed the technique onto my daughter and she loves operating a manual transmission. Great video. Fun to watch.

[@ginfizz20]

Thanks for the ride in the '35. I learned to drive in a '35 Chev pickup. I haven't ridden in one for 73 years.

[@richardmarino5658]

Great job Kyle love the car came out great. I’m glad that you didn’t do any modifications to make it newer different by today’s standard. I like the original and you keep you kept it original that’s important. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@georgeclements2742]

The '65 Chevy looks and sounds very good and you included a lot of really interesting historical information. Kudos to the guy that gave you the door for the yard truck: lots of dents in it for you to fix if you can be bothered. Best wishes.

Congratulations to you Kyle, incredibly interesting and entertaining video. The channel is growing and no wonder. Thank you for your efforts presentation and humour.

[@christianheidt5733]

Congratulations Kyle!!! I'm sure you've wanted to do those repairs for a long time now, & now it's done 👍. She's a beauty, & it's awesome that she's so original too! Thanks for the test ride, what a machine!!!

[@Grey_Beard72]

It is satisfying to see old cars like that get put back on the road the right way. I know to each their own but people need to think twice before gutting cars like that out and modding the crap out of them. Very well done.

[@martinbelasco577]

Thank you for keeping the '35 Chevy stock and sharing with us all of the unique designs and systems of it.

[@middletownmookie1904]

What a piece of art. Styling like that does not exist now and honestly is hard to pull off now. With that said, I love it! Keep it up Kyle. I learn more from each video.

Boy a lot of your restoration work brings back memories for me working on the 36. It definitely is rewarding when you put the work and money into your restoration and it rides and drives like it should. A great looking car Kyle, look forward to future videos.

[@goptools]

I have to say Kyle that this was the first time I ever saw someone remove the transmission from inside the vehicle. Not saying that it was wrong (it worked), just that I'd never seen it before. When you removed the floor pan covering the trans and that foam ring came into view, I thought it was a wax sealing ring from a toilet and laughed right out loud! Glad that wasn't the case. -mike

[@erichutchins2113]

Good job, Kyle! Thanks for taking us along. See you for the next episode.

[@michaelfred8848]

I’m 82 and remember our first car. It was a 37 Chevy and there were 7 of us until 1947 when we got a brand new Chevy and a new little sister. We were amazed at how much bigger the new car was 😂we had that until 57 when we got a new Mercury. By that we were marrying of the older girls and the new car was always big enough for the rest of us 😅

[@died4us590]

The entertainment value of other people's poor repair work is great. When the cardboard and foam sound deadening were uncovered, i was just thinking was the former owner trying to make pre fab home's for the mice. I need the music to cover up the vulgarity i use while fixing old car's, and other people's dumb fixes. Thanks for showing this mechanical stuff, i really like seeing these old rides being revived, tired of people putting modern shit in these old car's. G-d bless.

[@johnwesner3935]

Hey Kyle, thanks for showing what really happens during a rebuild. I retired and was finally able to resume my regression into the lunacy of restoring old junk!😅 I'm on number six and still having fun. I did one CJ5 1972 Jeep as a restoration and quit doing that afterwards. To much time and money. Everything else is being restored to function. It's much more fun driving them than being afraid to scratch the paint. I've learned a lot from you over the years so thank you for that. The fact that I'll never be able to achieve your results means I hate you!😮 Not really 😅 Thanks from Wisconsin

[@Joe.Doucette]

"and was finally able to resume my regression into the lunacy of restoring old junk!" That is a fine statement that I can really relate to. :)

I think cars of that era should be saved and kept just as they were made. I think it ruins them to chop em up and modify them.

Glad to hear you are keeping it original as possible. You are right, they are not making the originals anymore. Seem like most people get the old cars and can't wait to put a new frame and engine in it and I get that 100% but the rare ones keep them original, great work.

You have a mighty fine looking car there. From the test drive it looks like you all the major problems are worked out and fixed. Sounds solid but you may have to put more cardboard sound deader in it for that ultra quiet sound,but I think it will be fine. Truthfully I love the car it has a beauty and grace in the styling of it you should feel very proud that you own it. Later
