Can We Make a FORGOTTEN Muscle Car Run After 33 Years in Storage!? - Part 2

Finally! Someone who recognizes the value of a fan shroud. Thank You!

If u don’t have a shroud the fan doesn’t pull air threw the radiator

[@russmonte7072]

I run my 72 cutlass without a shroud. Now I only drive in the evening and not the heat of the day and I only really drive her back roads so I’m not in stop in go traffic. But yes if you plan on daily driving you need a shroud.

Russ monte I have got stuck in traffic and would over heat I could be slick and move the radiator on the other side of the radiator housing like a six cylinder would have and run electric fan and it would almost work like a shroud. Nice car u have I am running a 383 in a 1956 210

[@alan6832]

He won't lose the brakes without turning them. for that he needs to check fluid and seals and possibly cylinder walls for jamming rust. Rusty rotors might be a bit grabby at first, then might and might not pulse. They only need turning if they pulse badly after 1000 miles, focus on assembly lube on pistons and seals. in order to hold fluid and not drag too bad.

The first car I ever owned was a 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass S....it was orange (yup, factory paint orange) with a white vinyl top and white vinyl interior. It had a rocket 350 V-8 two barrel, and a TH 350 transmission. Had about 80,000 miles on it when I bought it used in 1979. Had to change out the tires, battery, alternator, belts, hoses, plugs and points, fluids and filters when I bought it. So easy to do yourself on cars back then. Also the brakes redone and bearings and even had to replace a control arm (wrecker yard) and ball joints (JC Whitney catalog) lol. Even though it was only about seven years old then, it was already showing some body rust. Cars back then were so prone to that. I remember putting in a Jensen AM/FM-cassette radio and 3x9 triaxial speakers in the back. Whoo hoo...big shot with that in it. Hello ladies, lol. Yours looks in great shape for its age, and seeing that remote button to open the trunk and the gas cap behind the rear license plate brought back memories.

Tip: when removing rear wheel bearing and seal, remove the spindle nut and front bearing, screw the nut back on and "yank" the rotor off the spindle. The inner bearing wheel pop out with the seal and it won't damage the seal. Also love your videos.

Now mind you that 1 block away I have a NAPA which is the regional distribution center and of course they do have everything you need wight in the warehouse, but, O'Reilly's beat their price every time.

Dang, that sucker is loaded up with a good number of options! Map light, remote trunk release, front disk brakes, A/C, 350-4bbl with duals? In '72 that was a nicely appointed Cutlass S! About the only thing missing is cruise, tilt wheel, buckets and a floor shifter. Thanks for saving it guys, they are getting hard to come by these days especially one that has had so few owner modifications. The chrome air filter was common and the former owner deserved a spot in heaven for not destroying the dash putting in an aftermarket stereo. Non butchered dashes are getting rare, no one makes them repop and talk about $$$! My 71 is (well, was...now in primer) the same color, same interior, but no vinyl roof, not optioned as well but was an A/C car. I still have mine and am working on restoring it now.

Ok, my very first major car repair was on my 76 Buick Century (the Pace Car Replica) that my Dad whom I thank effusively bought me. The water pump went out, and rather than utilize the warranty I replaced it myself with a Chilton's manual. I still remember how much room I had under the hood compared to todays cars after I removed the shroud and radiator. That shroud makes your fan "ducted" and does exactly what you said, ensures the fan draws air through the radiator (and AC condenser) to make it actually cool the coolant. Great video, those cars are so much easier to work on. I changed an alternator and a CV axle on a couple of Japanese imports in the last few years, made me wish I was about 25% smaller overall with 25% longer arms and fingers.

I need one of these for my Olds 425 that's sitting in my garage. All the ones I find are rusted out basket cases or way to much $$$$.

[@tomjones2202]

Yep,, Muscatine to Silver Lake KS,, 422 miles :) Hope you 2 got home safe and I cant wait to see it on the road running!

[@jwrockets]

I want to know how Mook, with that fair Minn-uh-soda skin, isn't regularly burned like a Maine lobster. "Kevin, turn your semi off!" Probably not the first time she's said that.

[@slammerf16]

She's dating a ginger, they are not a sun loving tribe.

[@GeorgeCampbell1964]

You never know what Mook is gonna say it do! 🤣😂 She makes these videos what they are.

[@markstockhausen8496]

Hey, love the videos. Had to stop turning wrenches a while ago, but your videos remind me of back in the day. Pointer. The accelerator pump issue, there is a plastic insert with a swing and a ball near the acc. Pump. Most likely that was stuck. And that is why even after you replaced the pump it did not work. Also the day you drove it home the delayed start may have been due to the bowl seal caps leaking. Very common on a quadrojet Keep up the great work

[@karlsmith2570]

"I'll get the breaker bar" I don't think I've seen Mook so excited to get to working on a project vehicle

[@Hurricaneintheroom]

She's still got the burned up Nova to do.

[@mikewest9033]

Man u got u 1 man. The motor runs no dents a new top and some lower fender patch work and a interior clean an u got a real 💎

[@lesterscrugs2272]

"I could soak a ham in gasoline and 'set it up right' and it would run better than this" I'm dying.

[@mcswain69]

Lester Scrugs sounds like a video that needs making...

[@aussiefirestorm]

Mook is a gem, full diamond keeper. I reckon you already knew that you are a lucky man.

[@themostoflife]

Hey look I'm here, love ya vids junkyard digs

[@BROD681Homers]

I love oldsmobile 👍👍👍thank you for sharing and good luck with her. I own two of them. One 74 delta 88 convertible. And a 71 cutlass. Rock on dude. I am 52yrs and love all old cars.

[@JuliaCV9]

"it has an electric trunk" *[Junkyard Digs presses button]* *[trunk opens]* me: HOW DID THEY HAVE THIS TECHNOLOGY IN 1972?!?!

[@dethmetel]

It's not the fact that it has it, Hell my 68 Lincoln Continental has a vacuum operated button for a trunk release, It's the fact hat IT STILL WORKS. It is not uncommon at all on old vehicles, that shit just doesn't work anymore, from sitting for so long

[@hughstephenson2957]

The Olds Toronados had electric trunk buttons from the first year

[@SYH653]

Hell, Packards & Duesenbergs had power windows in the '20s.

[@kevintucker3354]

Luxury cars had power antennas and windows and lots of other things way back in the 50s

[@frankbrunner9360]

The '56 caddy l drove in Burbank had an electric trunk latch ! pink & white.... what a boat...!

[@_BAD_MERC_]

Kevin, quick tech tip next time you need to remove those inner wheel seals. Remove the outer bearing then thread the nut back on a few turns, pull the disc off and the inner bearing will stop at the nut removing the seal with it. Easy peasy!

[@cpedersen474]

Mook says "Hey! What did I say?" yelling at the tent pole. KZbin cuts to ad that starts with "cranky-pated?" Priceless.

[@Dragon49Master]

😂😂😂

[@Grnfinger]

Wow does this bring back memories.. I had a 72 cutlass with a 350 rocket back in 88. Bored out and a nice lumpy cam with tunnel ram intake and 650 holley. Frame cracked after a spin-out and had to cut my losses. Really miss that car. Lucky find, I'm jealous

[@jwatcher5645]

That's a 350 olds rocket with the gold valve covers very good find

[@VATION3RD-GEN-X-GARAGE]

Yup. In 1973 they started painting the 350 Rockets Blue the gold Rockets had more hp...

[@billdursa4724]

@@VATION3RD-GEN-X-GARAGE They are all rockets

[@VATION3RD-GEN-X-GARAGE]

@@billdursa4724 I didn't say they wasn't all 350 rockets just a color change in 1973 from the government emission controls I've had a 1972 Cutlass Supreme since 1983 mine was gold with black pinstriping

[@akersjon278]

41:25. Kevin (Looking at the chrome trim rings Mook is putting on): - That looks pretty damn good! Missed opportunity there Kevin. What you should have said was: - That looks pretty damn good, and those trim rings looks nice too... 😉

[@Iamthathillbilly]

The comment about the tbi Chevy made me laugh 🤣

[@Keach6]

I had a quadrajunk break that ear off years ago on the accelerator pump. I cut down a L bracket, drilled a small hole for the rod and a larger hole for the carb bolt beside it. Worked like a charm, lol!

[@2doortahoe959]

I’m from Muscatine and I ain’t even mad about what u said cause it’s true😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Dragon49Master]

Mook is awesome! My wife helps me rebuild cars too, so props to her (plus she's funny AS 😂😂😂) Love your videos you two; keep 'em coming and never loose your humor!

[@shredct3118]

Try going in the gas station and asking them to turn on the air. They usually have an override button.🇺🇸👊

[@trevorhalford8410]

LMAO, I bought one of them China air pump in 1996 and I recently found it under my carport. After being in the elements of the atmosphere it STILL WORKS! I'm flabbergasted yo.... lol

[@MrBlackmaxDK]

OMG i love Mook :D, is there a fire ?? hehe no theres no fire, WHY ARE YOU THEN DISTRACTING ME !!! ungh xD im crying

[@AndyProper]

She’s a beaut ! I’ve Always had a soft spot for cutlasses and other Oldsmobile models !

[@LIGHTBULBZED]

Quadrajets deserve a bit of respect it’s all they had on GM cars for years , and even were used as oldschool racing applications for hot rods , never had a quadrajunk let me down yet!

[@jeri8512]

I love the old oldsmobiles, I really like the sound from the engine its like a pur from a kitten until you hit the skinny pedal. I'm also a proud owner of a 77 olds vista cruiser.

[@dannycasler4959]

Kevin, I'm one of those old guys that says Quadrajets work good if you know how to set them up right, are you saying that I'm a dumb ass for saying that? It sure sounds like it to me! I want to know if you think a Holley would be ready to go after over 30 years of sitting? I have been buying derelict cars, dragging them in and working them over since the middle 70's and it's been my experience that after a few years of sitting they all need going through No matter what brand they are! But I guess us old guys don't know anything!

[@aaronhunt1616]

Unbunch your panties, he's just trying to say that quadra jets are pretty finicky compared to most of the others

[@rskalisky]

Yes, he was specifically speaking directly to you Danny

[@ljt71]

ok boomer

[@davidgearardo1788]

Man I clicked so fast just from the bumper shot, this was my first car, that olds ran like a champ, I bought mine in 86, from a guy for 350 bucks. Drove it for 6 years. All over the place. Loved that car. 👍
