[@MrVassago89]

You just seem like the nicest person in the world. And i don't give compliments very often. Instant fan. Loving this series, can't wait to see what else you have going on. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks! I appreciate That! 👍

[@bigblockkings1031]

A few more years and that bus would look like a lump of greenery in the forest. You are Determined! 👍😎

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks! I have to save it..😁 I appreciate you watching! 👍

[@howardkoster4026]

A small victory is STILL a victory. I'm re-watching your videos. Restored mentioned about your website issues.. I saw your 2nd channel, heard what all happened..... I need to get re-aquainted with the bus, it's been a while.... It is a cool old Ford bus!!!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks Howard! I really appreciate it! 🙏🏻

[@howardkoster4026]

@@CountryBoyGasGarage I wish I could be there to help out, but that's beyond my control...... I'm so glad that your channel has been restored... Hank William's Jr. is sooo right. Country folks can survive!!!!! I'm country at heart...... Peace!!!!

[@arthursopenroad7555]

Awesome job sir! love seeing the restoration of this old piece of history!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thank You Arthur!

[@TheJstewart2010]

When that stream of yellow came flying out my first thought was that you weren't using PB Blaster, lol. Seriously, though, great job on this project!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

🤣 Hey Thanks!

[@HFG]

The ole bus has a cool style to it. Looking forward to the next episode

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

It's got such character to it. 😁 Thanks for watching! 👍

[@HFG]

@@CountryBoyGasGarage for sure, buddy. Sweet project.

[@reneezimmerman4907]

It would be awesome to find something like that❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@emilianobarone2737]

very good video congratulations, in my f100 of the year 65, I have installed a Ford v8 Y Block 292 of the year 73, here in Argentina they were manufactured until the year 88 under the name phase2 from 1973 when, Ford Motor Argentina made a development, on the original V8 (from the end of the 50s to the year 72 in Argentina it is called 292 phase1 and from the year 73 to 88 it is called 292 phase2, cordial greetings from Argentina

[@JohnTilbury-fr6ny]

I like how they show everything

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks for watching!

[@laughingalltheway8399]

I was glad to see the bus come across my subscription feed! I can't wait to see you bring it to life!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks! I wish the weather was better so I could make more progress!

[@myfavs253]

Late to the party but loving it so far. My ex could take an engine apart, modify it, rebuild it, and put it all back together. I loved watching the process.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks!

[@jamesmcdonald5868]

So far I like where you are at this point.

[@donniehodge2548]

I like watching you bring the old bus back to life 👍

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thank You!

[@franknursery6906]

Good job and progress so far!

[@jbar6746]

Kept thinking WOW nice stream. Great job PB Blaster

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Haha hey Thanks!

[@jaytysver8832]

I always filled the cylinders with fuel oil and fill the whole inside of the motor with fuel oil also to help free everything up then drain it

[@ericfinch8887]

nice, might have been easier to put penetrating oil in the cylinders first. But that clutch, wow... lucky it moved at all.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

I put Marvel Mystery Oil in the cylinders

[@IronheadGarage]

Good luck on getting it started it just might start. The woods are trying to take it back to the ground...

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks! I'll need it...lol

[@kellybrown111]

Just came across your cool find bus, I’m curious why didn’t you have it towed to your shop? Would be easier and safer than in the woods.

[@CWOJim]

I'm enjoying watching your progress. I've got some experience under the hood, but that looks like such an intimidating challenge.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks! I have my fingers crossed...lol!

[@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS]

Yo, it turns! That's half the battle if it's turning and no stuck valves! If you ever seen Mortske Garage he often has to drop the starter and pull it apart or replace... it's kind of a running joke there, lol.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Mortske is Great! 👍

[@oldmanintheshopbuiltnotbou8726]

old bus looks like a fun project new sub

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks! I subbed back. 👍

[@AutobusMX]

Great to have the Ford Y blocks manual, hope you could run it !

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Totally helpful! Check out the part 2 video where I try and start it up! 👍

[@ahmedal-prince6438]

You are wonderful and amazing, go ahead with your wonderful work, and I wish you success in your work. I am still waiting for your wonderful works. With sincere thanks and appreciation to your honorable representative, Al-Manaba’ Ahmed Roses, from Iraq, the capital, Baghdad, Mahmudiya district. 👍🇺🇸🇺🇸👍

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks Ahmad! I really appreciate you watching and for the comments! 👍

[@matts4290]

Resurrecting the dead is never easy. Apparently them mice like to hang out behind the flywheel inspection cover. I had the same problem-full of mouse house!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

I was amazed how stuff they packed everywhere...lol! Thanks for watching! 👍

[@naeemnazirmir9810]

it would be a run away bride and you would be searching for this kind of bride. it is old but gold......

[@friguy4444]

Insane cool and difficult. I'm loving the series and I would do just what you are doing. I would like to request one thing for your channel if possible. The music volume and the talking volume are not very matched and it would be much more enjoyable if they were. Thank you for your hard work and great videos!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks! I've gotten better with the audio levels throughout the series but still having trouble. I'm gonna have to get a microphone I guess. Thanks for watching and the feedback! 👍

[@twistedyogert]

How was the rest of the wiring and hoses? I'm glad you got this old girl working again. Also is anyone else besides me reminded of "The Magic School Bus" when they look at this thing?

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Wiring and hoses were all chewed gone from the rats

[@ksokie63]

Goodness that was a good nest up there in behind the inspection cover. But it rotating.

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Yeah it was...lol

[@enjoythesho1992]

312 y block I was going to say its either a 292 or a 312 ....the 312s are a little more rare the only way to tell its really a 312 is to drop the oil pan and see if it has ECZ main caps

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks! I appreciate you watching and for the feedback!

[@greg6895]

Just found your channel today and subbed right away, looking forward to seeing more vids.....l must be subbed to 100 different channels just like yours now haha!...l'm an ex bodyman and can't get enough of these types of channels, it's all l watch now, tv sucks haha! Keep up the good work, looking forward to many more vids from you. Thanks brother, from Canada!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks Brother! I Appreciate You Watching! 👍

[@79tazman]

It's would be easier to break it loose by the flywheel underneath you can't get much torque on that front bolt like you can on the flywheel

[@thevinylcollector3472]

awesome video

[@fordnut4914]

That bus only takes kids to the skool of hard knocks.😏

[@shaneharrison4775]

Bus may be a 48 but the engine is a later 50s to 60s 292 or 312 V8 dads 48 F2 phone truck had a flatty in it as did grandpa's 48 ford estate wagon

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Yeah the previous owner swapped out the flathead for a 1957 312 Y-block

[@nicolemarshall9590]

So cool!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks!

[@alfaromeoalfettarestoratio7817]

Kudos to you for the effort going in to getting this old bus started. Loving the attention to detail and step by step explanations. Just one question I have. As the bus is sitting in the woods, what is stopping someone else showing up and claiming it, and taking off with it?

[@NotaMechanicJack]

That’s one cool bus

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks!

[@Gadgetman1989]

As he said in the first video, he has the title for the bus and has it all in his name already

[@michaelwinter8633]

I gave a thumbs up coz you have a killer beard

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Haha! Thanks!

[@guydesma8071]

I could smell the marvel mystery oil.lol

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Lol! Hey Thanks for watching! 👍

[@ashleyrose1851]

this is so cool

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks!

[@Langford815]

You know I found an old lowrider look like Christine is located in abandoned wood sound creepy and there

[@ABANDONEDCARREVIVALS]

Sorry the PB blaster really looks like your just pissing on the engine lmao!

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hahaha! 😂

[@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS]

I was gonna ask "Was that PP Blaster?"

[@shaneharrison4775]

You dont wanna run it long with the marvel mystery juice in it

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Hey Thanks!

[@kevinmartin1735]

Try removing the push rods . Check out thunderhead 289 site

[@carlosalbertomejiatamayo2727]

Lo felicito, mi papa tuvo muchisimos bises de los 50

[@hossburgess2823]

Looks like a 292 v8, not the original motor, originally it had a 239 flathead motor

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Was told by previous owner that it was a 312

[@dr.skipkazarian5556]

Did you check the interior for dead nuns? Your skills in bringing this back to life allows you to change your name to "Country Boy Messiah"....🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Haha! I checked it for dead anything...lol Hey Thanks! I appreciate That! 👍

[@samueltaylor7266]

what year model was the engine

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

The motor that's in it is a 1957 292 or 312 Y-block

[@veronicamurillo974]

Would the previous owner be able to claim it after you fix it?

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

I contacted him and purchased it. I now have the title.

[@NZMOPAR]

I come back to part 1 let see what's going on here

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Thanks! I Appreciate you watching!

[@freddysoto7021]

Hey hey buddy THANK you white wall??

[@vayabroder729]

So it looks like they swapped the original flathead in this one?

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Yeah someone swapped it out for 1957 Ford 312 Y-block

[@JohnTilbury-fr6ny]

I want the bus

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Everyone wants the bus! 😊

[@haroldgetchelljr3264]

[@cindyshanahan5658]

Like see bus

[@mikeyoung5211]

Give it some dignity, wash it outside

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

Oh I do and it's amazing!

[@georgethecritic9850]

That is not a 1948. Maybe a 1954 OHV

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

No it's a 1948 Ford F5 Superior bus. Someone swapped out the original flathead for 1957 Ford 312 Y-block out of a dump truck.

[@stevengreen9725]

I will buy this bus from you name your price

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

It's so unique! I'm not sure that I want to sell it...

[@jamestaylor-xx5py]

Why did you waste so much time on the old engine ?

[@CountryBoyGasGarage]

I didn't waste any time, the old engine runs great. This weekend I'm driving it to the Church that it use to belong to and show up at their reunion to show them.
