FAIL! - First Drive Since The 90's Ends With Blown Transmission

[@jimmartin2248]

Father and son working together priceless...

[@DDSpeedShop]

Oh there's a cost haha

[@davidgreene7223]

Murr is so patient. What a huge bonus having him around.

[@TheRinkboss]

My dad was a Mur also ..he lived in his garage. We painted my first car in the mid 80s, 2 door 74 Pontiac Parisienne..Miss the old man, and miss that car..Thanks for the dedication Dan, great channel !

[@ricksennema9228]

Awesome that Murr comes over to help out, my pops stopped coming over this summer , he’s gonna be 87 , been coming over twice a week to help out in the shop for years , really miss having him around….guess what I am saying is enjoy your time , great memories are being made , they are over before you know it . Thanks for the great videos, look forward to each one 👍

[@rockystanaitis2908]

I think its awesome that the glass is the most shiny part of the car.

[@Charleslinville269]

Keep up the good work, Dan. You made that look easy!

[@rockysplace6012]

You can do it Dan. I can’t wait to see how it turns out when your finally done with it.

[@bobballew6087]

Great content and love that Terrible II. What a great car and an awesome foundation for a cool build. Really loving that Terrible II. Thank you as always for taking the time to push that button and taking us along with you and her make over. 😊

[@johnpaulheupel5713]

This is going to be a cool build. I'm excited to see it. In high school, (1991-92), I had a 63 Chevy II. It was a brown and white ,4 door, inline 6, and I was imbarrassed. Now, I would love to have one like it. That thing was perfect. It was a band new old car.

[@franksgarage8551]

Glass goes in well with chainsaw starter rope. Ah, you got it anyway! Too bad about transmission, but there is a pile of them hiding in the corner. Day 3 in Victoria, man it’s hot!!

[@JimmyMakingitwork]

You had MUCH better luck with that glass than we did. MY friends and I broke my original windshield going into my 62 C10. Then a replacement arrived broken in shipping, then today the glass guys cracked the 3rd one...4th one arrives Tuesday. Car is going to fly thru inspection!...Well, maybe push thru, but it'll do it either way.

[@pitdawg6418]

This was my Mom's 1st car she would get us around from her job to dropping me off to day care then later to school. I'd sure like to get a hold of one. Good memories.

[@jerrybrothekid]

Old Meck-A-Nick suggestion for your trans issue. .. Dot 3 Brake Fluid ( About 1 pint. .. Add it to the trans and start it up. .. Let it idle to circulate and then run it in reverse. .. After about 30 seconds, try low gear then drive. .. The brake fluid swells the seals and clutch material, also cleans the various fluid passages. .. I did this trick on my old race car ( '55 Chevy B/G ) with a manual shift T-350, after sitting for about 15 years. ... YUP, it worked and I drove it without issue for 4 years before I sold it. .. Good Luck.

[@kennethsonier1766]

It's not moving under its power just yet but it certainly should move pretty good in the future. Keep up the great work and the cool videos 👍✌️🇺🇲

[@jetrat1589]

Mur is the windshield supervisor God, you guys killed it!

[@trav.builds]

Looking forward to this build!!

[@pugliesesspeedshop]

Glass makes a huge difference... Well that and a transmission!!

[@brianhaw9398]

So, as soon as the mechanic says it's good for the road,you are removing all the parts you just put in it, and getting ready to go racing? Awesome!👍🇨🇦

[@kevinwright1551]

I hope everything is going to come out just right for you. I love to see the new gasser style real soon. Keep up the great work.

[@johnh8917]

Dan. Little tip will make your life a little easier. As your pulling the rope keep your hand as close to the glass as possible. And pull toward the center of the glass don't pull outward.

[@scole901]

i never thought of this before, the glass is actually a body panel. it helps shape the car.

[@DDSpeedShop]

Big time!

[@fredsteele3339]

Will be a sweet build. Can't wait to watch it all come together.

[@bigbow62]

Bye bye 6cyl and.... HELLO..... 64' Chevy II mighty mouse GASSER ! Thank you Dani & Dan Nice job w/the rear window glass 🙂👍

[@michaelking3542]

Do the Transmission Forward clutches Dan!!!!!! Come on you can do it!!!!!! Piece of cake!!!!! My first trany was a 63' Chevy II powerglide in 1973 at 15 years old in the front yard and it worked.........😎😎

[@MIKEH.777]

Bleach white will take that dirt all off that paint. I know I have a white truck that I cleaned when I first got it and it was black. It came Really clean with bleach white a car srcub brush and water then wash it with soap and water and dry it. Then it will be so nice and clean. Keep up the great work and God Bless you guys and your families. 😊👍👌💪🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@fasrnur]

Good luck on your project Dan and Danni. We take it for granted how we can get parts. We complain but compared to you in Canada. We got it made! lol

[@BudFranks-fu9ye]

Ready to see it get underway 👍💯

[@scottyshaffer6103]

Lol.... Slushboxes for the never win.. feel your pain my Canakistan friend... both my 70 Challlenger and Chrysler 300H yes a Hurst edition left on side of road bleeding out, 727"s lol- am a commercial driver, sand and gravel, no substitute for 3 pedals.... 55 years and gearbox always turns the rear lol ,always get you where you wanna be when and where... keep us inspirited brother Dan! Scotty from ... Texas...rock on!

[@davidbrown-bh7it]

Glass looks good. You made that look easy!

[@kennethstaszak9990]

It's what I had as a kid - A ride-it erector set!

[@michaelcarmack4731]

Wow lots of patience for the back window

[@gregcameron9953]

Definitely looks way better with the back glass in, like you said the old got Ross look way better with

[@Aloa2011]

Nice work guys , keep it up

[@rottoratrodrusttohotrodaka3550]

DD needs a pair of sneakers, maybe Van's, for his shop life. Happy feet are the tools that make you productive.

[@DuckyHunter812]

Big sparkly metal flake in the bright color of your choice would be a very gasser touch on the roof.

[@tphvictims5101]

Super fine Steel wool cleans glass the best. 👍🏻

[@tmackinator]

There is a band adjustment on a powerglide that is easy to do and worth a try

[@robertbaker5130]

It’s a 350 turbo

[@kellismith4329]

@@robertbaker5130 oh, I missed that I thought it was a powerglide too

[@craigroberts3982]

love this dude and thanks again Murr.

[@waynekoszenski9913]

i hope that you are joking about when say that you are to lazy to put 2 seats in you are one of the hardest workers on u tube

[@vinnybarbara7097]

Really looking forward to see how this one turns out.

[@johnroof2663]

Yeah once those clutches get wet the transmission is done. My brother in law is a transmission specialist. He built my C4 in my Mustang. Which it is built to handle 750 horsepower.

[@deadclutch]

Poor Nova.. If someone was trying to make me drive around Carolina Squatting goofy gasser I'd detonate my transmission too😂

[@waynedurboraw2175]

Dan the man way to go see how much better it is to have more action an less talking you did a great job this video

[@craig322]

The other videos were just fine.

[@haroldrogers6083]

Yeh Mur , glad to see you have friends to call on Dan ! Nothing like blood !!

[@garyowens3687]

Run you a self tapper (small one now) through the trim around the tail light and she’ll be mint.

[@Ripsaw17]

We use the stuff when we take tires off called Murphy's soap not the same stuff to use on the floor in your house comes in a like a one-gallon bucket and kind of like a gel that stuff would work phenomenal for putting windshields in as well but soapy water seems to probably be the best gets pretty slick we even take semi tires off with soap and water

[@carmac1652]

There's one down my street exactly the same canary yellow. With 50s on the back looks nice I will try to get a picture 👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@tombrenes2411]

Awsome content Love all the hard work

[@whatsoutthere6822]

You're a trooper, Dan. You accept criticism well. ;)

[@jasonbose3507]

It's good criticism if he whines and cries when things get tough, no more wimpy people in the world please or cowards!!!

[@robwigglezz944]

The muffler makes more than "a little bit" of noise haha. Can't wait to see it all torn apart and getting the parts it deserves

[@mamaleighcase1569]

Just go old school gasser straight front axle....the whole shebang. That is the build I want to see 😊

[@rayoliver7120]

When you take it in to do the allinment , do a performance allinment, its where u have u sit in front seats or carry sand bags to make up the weight , I usually just sit inside along with my sweetheart in passenger side , last a lot longer and tires last twice as long on rotation.

[@gotrust4741]

Love seeing you and pops working together!

[@jimearnest4342]

I hope it doesn't let you down and embarrass you in front of the vehicle inspectors,this is going to be a fun one to watch,can't wait to see it torn down and brought back as a little demon.

[@hipdad9461]

Smack that Glass BABY!

[@sulistiman]

Yeah Murf you’re the best pal and assistant ❤

[@swamppy4880]

Keep the 6cyl.emblems on the front fenders

[@larrydixon-vi7ld]

And have the sign guy add +2 beside it

[@shartne]

2 speed power glide comes to mind for me they are great.

[@kellismith4329]

They were amazing I used to drive a 65 station wagon to make deliveries where I worked, it had a 283 and powerglide - man that thing would go no shift til about 50 mph and then take off again

[@kevinl.2291]

Let’s go!!! I’m ready for this thing to be a gasser. It’s gonna look so good keep up the good work, Dan.👍😎✌️

[@johnd21]

She’ll be worth it in the end. Can’t wait

[@kellismith4329]

Really cool old car, the old guy next door to me growing up had the same car (darker red color) - that old car ran forever. When I was old enough to drive I started on a 1960 impala I6 had the same powerglide transmission, they were pretty stout tranny’s

[@armedinbama]

I'm really looking forward to DANI'S DEBACLE taking shape! 😁🤙

[@kennethreiver985]

Perfect , Nova in Spanish means (Not Going ). 😂

[@55gaser26]

Dan have you guys given any thought to moving , lower state’s?

[@DDSpeedShop]

Everyday

[@waltercannon86]

Try using some Comet on the paint acts like sandpaper removes stains and such.

[@glennnickerson8438]

I remember the 90's... I was making the scene and Dan was beating up classmates for milk money! Now he's just beating himself up!!! 😆😆😆

[@1944chevytruck]

LOOKIN GOOD!

[@CrazyWillie01]

Ya Know that power glide you have from bisquane. Quick fix

[@armondoborjas4362]

Nothing like fixing it twice & driving it once 🤪👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎 try band adjustment my be all it takes

[@ericboothe8236]

Your gonna drive a solid lifter car 3600 miles? Brave soul. Look forward to seeing the build.

[@DDSpeedShop]

That's what they did when these cars where new

[@kellismith4329]

I do it all the time

[@geraldscott4302]

I've installed quite a few windows of that type using soapy water and heavy weed eater string. Did most of them by myself. I never installed the chrome trim. Most of them were in old pickups and air cooled VWs. A heat gun can help soften the rubber. The car does look a lot better. Heater? None of my old cars ever had a heater, including the two I still have. This is Phoenix, AZ. It's 112F here. Is that a Powerglide? My former '63 Nova SS with a straight six had a floor shifted Powerglide. So you are going to leave it in the U.S.? How close are you to the U.S. border?

[@jimbellingham3572]

lol, I went 2 take mine out 4 the 1st drive and it wopuldn't move,.....until I loosened the rear wheel lugs! The '69 Montego rear shoes./pads were 1/16" wider than the stock Grabber shoes/pads, so they were clamped by the drums if I tightened the wheel lugs!

[@jasonbose3507]

Thanks Dan for working on this amazing 😍 Shoebox Chevy II!!! I'm so excited to see it develope into a front axle cruiser, way better than the MASSIVELY BULKY 68-72 models! Thanks Dan for the video!

[@notforme-d1p]

Looks like a Opel kadett...nice car ..

[@jasonbose3507]

I'M SOOO EXCITED FOR DANI TO CRUISE IN HER LITTLE SHOEBOX CHEVY II, SO AWESOME 👍 You'll be slamming gears in no time! Straight axled Shoebox Chevy II look so incredibly awesome, that I have no words. Plus, in drag racing, the little shoebox destroys the 68-72 Nova in competition. It's physics, the Shoebox is slimmer, classier, streamlined, and of course MUCH LIGHTER THAN THE ELEPHANT 🐘 68-72! I love all novas but the 1962-67 is by far superior! Thanks.

[@erichuff2538]

The nova is looking pretty 😎 kewl.

[@stephensmith3018]

A th350 is an easy bolt in! and will keep it moving for inspection!

[@eddievantailn2882]

Back window looks great Dan, I love the body style. I'm not fan of six bangers, other than that it's a winner.

[@howardt1317]

Atleast the window looks great

[@davidwaynesingleton6826]

Some mirrors like the early Camaro mirrors would look good on that nova

[@Hanlonsgarage]

Looking forward to see where this one goes......🤔

[@mikemullay5622]

Just because I like this car in stock form so much and I know I am probably a minority of one, but I would like to see you build your Black Widow replica into a gasser instead of this car. I love the Nomad the way you made it by the way.

[@steelmill]

I think that Detroit Speed look would bring the car into the future. But keep it simple with a smallblock overdrive Ford 8.8 narrowed rear,make room for larger tires and wheels and suspension,nothing crazy.

[@IronChief]

I totally agree, but their parts are a little spendy.

[@stomper2582]

Dan, I’ve always liked the look of those little Nova’s. A friend of mine’s brother ordered one of those new from the factory with a 327 and four speed. It was a sharp car. Fast too. Good choice to build even if you did pay too much for it. Looking forward to seeing it go forward. 😂

[@keithharden7844]

Check the vacuum modilator, that is the way it acts when it's not working

[@johnnymack8442]

A quart of lucas extends the life of the trans. So a gallon should equal a full rebuild right ?

[@vwcoco]

Love this car Dan. Always great work sir 👍 hi danni. Murr great guy
