@@PoleBarnGarage I'm not a pretentious Jackass. I'm a motor mechanic and former garage owner who suffers watching you needless wreck cars. For example, you could have simply Googled: 'how do I fix vacuum wipers?', or you could have purchased the suspension bushes you needed before you left. Or, if you couldn't find the correct bushes, the companies that make the bushes usually allow you to browse by size, which would probably have worked. I get that breakdowns, etc, are part of the fun, but there are enough real catastrophes that you can't avoid, without needlessly creating problems for yourself. In every relationship, you get back what you put in. If you treated your wife the way you treat your cars, you would soon be sleeping alone.

Pull the hose off of the vacuum wiper motor source, stick it into a container of ATF and work the wiper arms back and forth a few times or ten. Draws ATF into the vacuum motor and softens up the old grease...let it sit overnight, hook it back up and your wipers will work good-ish again!

Man i miss smoking haha. I smoked cigs for 22yrs. FINALLY after many attempts with alternative nicotine, it NEVER worked! The only thing that did work was put myself thru hell for 8 weeks quitting cold turkey! Now 3 yrs and 10months later im still quit. As a truck driver I knocked out 1.5 to 2 packs a day. I could easily pick them back up anytime. But I do feel better and still want one every now and then. But i don't even think about them anymore unless i smell one or see one. Then i get a temptation. Great show!

Some years before Dad gave it to me, the '59 "Squarebird" was our family car. It had those Gawd-awful vacuum wipers too. We climbed Pike's Peak in that thing, in the days when the roads were barely a lane wide, and had nothing or only pathetic protection from the cliffs off the side of the road. They always seemed to be on the passenger side, where Mom was pissing herself in terror. The more the 352 motor struggled lugging up the hill, the more ridiculously sluggish the wipers were, and the harder it rained. How Dad got that thing up there and back without us all dying is a testament to the Man he was.

Two steps to stop window fogging, 1) spray and wipe inside of all windows with anti fog spray from auto parts store and spray and wipe exterior windshield, front side windows, and rear window with anti fog rain x ( at least 2 coats ) then 2) get a powerful 12 volt cigarette plug tornadoe fan from a truck stop and set it to blow on inside of windshield and you should have anymore fogging issues. Repeat every 2 or 3 days with the sprays.

Those vacuum wipers gave me flashbacks of my first car, a 1968 AMC Javelin. I bought it in 1985 for $300 from my brother. The faster you drove, the slower the wipers went. That's not good when you're from Seattle. It had an auxiliary vacuum pump on top of the fuel pump, but the diaphragm was apparently blown.

Had pulled the thermostat cover at an O Reillys and found there was not one. So after dark in the cool air we drove all through the night at 55 with the heat on full blast. had to put a blanket over my feet to keep from burning them. She ran right at the red the whole way, Made it home around 9am. Never had a leak but the next day went to pull the Rad and it came apart in my hands. Heater core as a supplemental Rad works well.

When I was a kid, we had an old 1959 Chevy Apache 32 pickup truck with vacuum wipers. When you coasted, they'd go so fast I was sure the blades would just fly off. When the engine was under load, they'd stop. You had to let off the throttle for a second to let the wipers sweep, then get back on the gas before you lost too much speed (the truck had a 235 L6 with a three on the tree, so losing momentum was borderline tragic).

Possibly some help for you....................late 50"s and mid 60"s fords had 2 things that you dont have under the hood. First is an expansion tank that sat High in the coolant system. a metal tank that also held the radiator cap. It allowed the cooling system to "bleed" the air and thus remove cavitation and lower your temp a bit. The other was a vacuum canister with a check valve on it to allow vacuum to build up. a reel boon to vacuum wipers. Might help also if you were to clean and lube the vacuum motors.

The transformation of the old wagon is incredible Dalton. Not only is it running and driving, it's road trippin'... 16 belts... That's freakin awesome LMFAO. It cracked me up when you said you paid $70 for the cig lighter. As a fellow smoker, I would have done it too. Now you just need to get a new receptacle for it, so it stays in on its own, and pops out when it's ready to use. It's damn near magic. Hell, most of the new vehicles don't even come with a lighter. I remember when I bought my new 2014 RAM 4x4 crew cab. It was a fully loaded rig with the Cummins, and it wasn't cheap. When we picked it up, I noticed on the window sticker that it had the "Smokers Package" which they charged $75 for. When I got in I looked and couldn't find a lighter, and certainly didn't see an ashtray. As a last resort I looked in the center console, and there it was, the smokers package... One cheesy ass little black plastic ashtray with the lighter inside of it.

The heart of the problem is the RPM.....3,300 RPM is still way to high to keep that engine temp in the safe zone. The gearing needs to bring it closer to 2,000 RPM on the highway and the overheating issue would disappear.

Small tip to help with those axle bearings when you get around to it, if you put a ball bearing in the divot on the end, stand it on the bearing and use a screwdriver on the hub side it spins nice and easy for heating with a torch and practically removes it's self, course I understand not everyone has a torch but hey if it helps then I'm glad to share a tip taught to me by an old timer

I was so glad to see you gut the thermostat and not just remove it most people don't understand you need some back pressure so coolant can slow down enough to pull heat out of block but to also get in the heads far enough to keep from having hot spots where the coolant will never reach without some back pressure, as long as you do the wrong thing the right way it's all good. It is what it is, ain't what it should be, never will be what it was! great job

Something extra special about lighting a smoke with an old school car cigarette lighter (I have done this before). Also, the special...um marks.. they would leave if you played with one as a dumb kid.

The funny thing is is that Dalton knew the kind of road trip he was going on and still put off crucial repairs for convenience and laziness. The whole time, I was laughing and laughing because a lot of the issues could've been avoided. As a 30+ years mechanic, I was shocked at the ill preparation in making sure that it could make the trip successfully. You are one brave person on taking these chances of ill prepping a road trip. The videos are very entertaining though! I love 💕 Pole Barn, never a dull moment. Anyways, thanks for the video 📸.

If dema tires are "completely bald", then 60% of cars on the road are riding slicks! I'd have run those another 600miles for sho - but no seat belts at 75mph? That's another story!! 😂😂
