Buying A 2nd Desert SUBURBAN! Double Trouble? - NNKH

[@GuildOfCalamity]

This is currently the best car repair/revival channel on KZbin. KZbin is lucky to have Chris!

[@aspenyukon6845]

It would’ve Better entertainment to stick with the 454 suburban. He had it running and shifting. Weld the original intake maybe stick a new camshaft in it is what we wanted to see. Then Drive the sketchy thing across the country lol 😂

[@derekfelber743]

@@aspenyukon6845 that is definitely what I wanted to see but i can only imagine the stress and logistics in trying to Drive something like that cross country. I was hoping he would just get a dolly and tow it home with emma 2

Hey Chris, I’m sure I’m speaking for the majority of folks that watch your video when I say, the “will it run” videos are cool but when you take us along with you, Jen and Gus on these trips, it gives a unique video. I have yet to see someone who spends as much time on the trip as you do. Sure Derek does something similar but I really enjoy watching the trip as much as the fixing. Please don’t change a thing.

[@haroldkelley3635]

I love the 87 suburban. I had 2 at the same time. Now I have a 90 & 91. Both 2 wheel drive 1/2 tons. 1 with tailgate and other with what I call barn doors. Just got to get both back on road. Nice job with yours

[@royvankan2723]

+1. I like the format. Maybe videos that are a bit longer because they’re so entertaining together with Jen and Gus. The drone shots are also nice.

I am sorry to see the Plymouth Savoy go, but it definitely went to a family that will love and take good care of her! Congrats to Matt's wife on her beautiful classic car and Happy 40th to her! 🎂🎈🎉🎈

[@RD-ue8ps]

When I see that Matt's wife is only 40, I feel classic myself! 😁

[@fernandomcc7954]

I really admire the hard work, tenacity and, mostly, the patience you had with that Suburban. Congrats for your channel and greetings from Mexico.

[@ctwolfgang433]

Cool that you take your know how and guts to go cross country, buy a vehicle, and drive back home. Also enjoy watching your adventures along the way.

[@williamlane9140]

Love your videos man! Old time mechanic. Refreshing to see a younger mechanic diggin' on these older gems! Keep em coming!!

[@DavidJones-hl5om]

Glad you've sold the 1st suburban can't wait to See the drive home on the 2nd one and the repairs you do on it.😊😊

[@SeanHodgins]

I used to love riding around in the third row in my Grandpas (now mine) '88 when I was a little kit. I drove across the US in it solo about 13 years ago, living out of the back. Home, Ontario, Canada - > LA - > Seattle - > Home and everywhere in between. Amazing experience.

[@boat6868]

What an amazing mechanic...also, it was great the way things worked out with the first Suburban.

[@stevenchatburn9058]

Chris you the man..the way you work on these old vehicles rain or sunshine you always go the extra mile..always look forward to watching your videos and I dig the fact you get an old car that was sitting for 10+ years then see how far it will run that always amazes me keep it up

[@brianreid3494]

You guys reflect such positive energy. You make feel like I can do anything.

[@jimbluebaugh6090]

The best thing about your videos is how much they remind me of my wife and I. We're 65 & 67 now. She was right there thru kids, softball, fishing, cars, boats back to classic cars, drag Racing, motorcycles and car shows. Keep having fun together!

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 Maaaan, I simply love this kind of videos. It's always great to see Jen, you and cute little Gus 💚 having fun. After seeing the sturdy trailer hitch on the second, amazingly rust free vehicle, I definitely thought that you would rent a trailer and haul EMA home. I'm eagerly looking forward to watch the next video part about the journey. Great to see that the baby blue oldtimer went to a good home, even as a 40th birthday present. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards, luck and health in particular. To all 3 of you of course.

[@schmuhf]

Can't wait for part two. I feared that after seeing the intake on Ema 1 we would not get to see any roadtrip footage, but Ema 2 seems to be a worthy candidate. I love the trio you are!

[@wyatt1476]

We had an old ‘burb growing up. This is bringing me back man!

[@mrfrank4583]

I don't subscribe to a lot of channels but the energy from Chris, Jen and Gus is so good plus the hard work that goes into not only the cars but the production of the video itself certainly deserves a subscription if it can help them out. The genuine authenticity of your nature makes its way through cyberspace and I absolutely appreciate it. Stay strong, continue to smile and be well always!

[@hdvette64]

I’m north of you in Lehigh county and to see how clean and rust free those square bodies are is just amazing! Love your content.✌️

[@josephduncan8385]

It was great seeing the reaction of the gentleman's wife seeing her new car for her 40th birthday. Nice touch! Also...I have owned 3 suburbans in my lifetime (73,74, &78) and loved them all. Again, your drone footage is awesome!

[@chrisrizzo6624]

I hope the Suburban 2 video is going to be a road trip video where you fix the junker as you go. Those are a blast to watch.

[@B-Rad-Ry]

These videos were excellent! I admire how you maintain your cool while uncovering problem after problem.

[@DanTech03]

What a nice guy. Already has it sold, fixes the rig, and still cleans & vacuums it prior to delivery.

[@stefanschneider3681]

It's really heart-warming to see how you kinda fall in love with these vehicles and really seem relieved finding someone for them who seems to care 👍. And having a beautiful lady at your side really helping you out and seeing this kind of trip as a vacation is a real privilege!

[@DerricksFunnyFarm]

I’m always so impressed with the adventures and the time you spend away from home. Most of us couldn’t or haven’t but you guys take on all of it. Well done Chris, Jen, and Gus !

[@alberttibbets6567]

Oh, man, I love this video. I love the car work, the travel, the dining out, Gus, of course, and then a bit of roller skating. I haven't done that in years and it brought back such a great memory. Thanks. And don't stop "blabbing."

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@georgeg.5763]

I found a 1973 Suburban same color in 1993 still own it still runs did the same thing brought it back from the dead nice to see you doing all it takes with a great attitude your both awesome in my book.

[@relerfordable]

The stories along with the hard work on the cars are so interesting. I think everyone can appreciate the love and pain of making things run!

[@ghettsumm7949]

Your rapid fire assessment of vehicles is second to none. You just rattle off every small issue with accuracy. Emma 2 is clean underneath 👌

[@willc5512]

I like that this guy knows when to not push his luck & is motivated to get em sold. Vs ppl that buy at auction then their wrecked project sits for years. 🫣

[@robertkerby2581]

Great job on repairing the Suburban and ultimately getting her running! My parents owned a similar year Suburban when I was a kid and that vehicle could do anything. Well done!

[@Onethirtytwo]

Holy moly, I was in Parumph about a month ago, I stopped by to pay my respects to Art Bell. I actually filled up at the same Phillips 76 except I was at the pump behind you. Crazy!

I absolutely LOVE my 91 Suburban. Tried and true, and can be worked on with a very simple tool set unlike my first and last new car that I hate.,

My God this is one of the greatest KZbin channels EVER. Like... in the history! Love love this channel. Love Chris, Jen, Turbo, and the Gus-Man! Great young Americans, and so so fun! They are what America is all about - in so many ways! Another wonderful vid. Who needs TV any more?

[@suedehead00]

Holy crap the that's Roller Palace! I don't usually comment on your awesome videos Chris but seeing the old Roller Palace skating rink really took me back. I haven't seen that place since 1984. Keep up the great work, I love seeing how you work with cars getting them started after sitting for long periods of time...

[@johnwakefield9378]

Another great video this trips aren’t awesome, Jen, Gus and your wizardry as a mechanic. Loved every minute of this one as always. Great editing your super secret talent makes your channel tops absolute tops.

[@erinfredrisk9840]

I love that this isn't just another car "revival" channel and includes many vehicles of different types as well an insight into your trips and the various locations that you visit. 🎉 Please continue.

[@slowshedgarage7409]

I had a couple of these. I really like the double doors on the back a lot better. Ever get down to North Carolina you're welcome to use my garage for any repairs.

[@David6.3]

Chris, your love for hoopties is slightly concerning, but your mechanical prowess is an impressive mitigating factor. Every purchase is an adventure.

[@jacobmay7594]

That part 1 cliff hanger made the wait so hard! Good choice on letting the troublesome Ema1 go. If only you were closer to home it probably would have been Okay but clearly had more issues.

[@Wane_96792]

We just love watching your videos and how you just pickup vehicles that majority of the time don't run and you make it work. Awesome

[@donaldhalls2189]

Honestly I'm jealous, that thing is great something like that here in Australia would probably get you $10 to $15k the way it was, hope it's a enjoyable rig, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones

Favorite will it run channel on KZbin hands down, I’ve been watching for about 3-4 years

[@bobjohnston8316]

Same color scheme and 5.7 V8 as my 89 4WD Suburban which racked up 145,000 miles before eastern PA road salt did it in. The perfect vehicle for a family of skiers not to mention driving up logging roads to get my tree stand ready for deer season. The best vehicle value of any that I have ever owned.

[@shephusted2714]

nice to see you double down - the trucks are handy - the frame is mint - almost unbelievable to see if you are on east coast #desert cars #man needs variety

Chris warning ⚠️ If Jennifer ever takes that thing out shopping . Your not going to believe everything she going to be able to get in it. My wife hated truck and SUV when we got married she drove a car not so much anymore . Now it's pick up, Tahoe, Trailblazer. Nice find. Another good video enjoyed

[@misterrain837]

I learned how to drive on a 1986 GMC 6.2 diesel 2500 4x4. That was our family car all through my childhood and even as a teenager. That truck lasted forever. It’s probably still out there somewhere. Love these trucks man.

[@falconpaauwnch3583]

You guys have fun and make it fun for us. Drone vid was cool. Thanks.

[@dominickfagan4050]

New to the channel only seen the Ema videos. Very impressive. I really love your attitude as well as your mechanical prowess. Loved the fact that when you sold Ema you still brought her off got her cleaned up and did as much mechanical stuff as you could before handing her over. Shows a man with good morals. I love watching American car shows as you have such a plethora of old cars that can be found and restored. I wish when I was younger that I would have had the chance to learn mechanics but in Ireland they dont teach shop. I did a mechanics basic course at 53 but hats off to you keep up the good work. Awful sad to see so many homeless around Los Vegas Ireland is really bad too. Cant wait for the next video

[@Fyreblade2000]

Another awesome episode mate!!!! Love the Big Chev's!!! Looking forward to part 3! Safe travels to Jen, yourself and the little fury fella!

Thank you for the update and I'm happy it's going to be fixed the other one looks to be a good one also outstanding video awesome content thank you for sharing this six stars

[@jesterr7133]

I feel ya on the variety thing. I have only had 11 cars that I have driven for any significant period of time, but I have purchased and resold over 15,000 in my lifetime. With one exception, all of the vehicles I have kept were worth less than $5K. I kept and '89 Mazada B2200 with a rusted out bed, a '91 Buick Skylark Custom that had been in a flood, a '79 Volare that had been sitting for nine years when I bought it, and a '96 Roadmaster Wagon that I bought off the scale. I loved that car, but it was a wreck magnet. I'm currently driving an '08 Honda Fit, and that is the newest car that I have ever kept. It has never had any work beyond regular maintanance done on it in it's lifetime. It is only on it's second battery, and that one is currently nine years old. It is certainly the most reliable car that I have ever kept.

[@realtvnow]

Love the addition of a Tesla in your videos; juxtaposition is extremely interesting. You, Jen, and Gus riding along in a Tesla Model 3 making fart sounds had me rolling on the ground. I’m addicted to your videos, and my wife and I both drive Teslas. Thank you for not bad mouthing electric cars, like so many other gear heads, just because they’re different.
