EP14 HQ HOLDEN BODY FIND BOUGHT BACK TO LIFE WITH A BIG BLOCK CHEVY V8 ENGINE SWAP

We found a HQ body parked for 20 years + without a motor and transmission.
To bring it back to life we didnt just fit a factory engine ! We fitted my favorite engine a Big Block Chev 396ci v8. Aussie muscle that could/should have been .
SO WHAT IS BACKSHED ALL ABOUT ?
WE ARE ALL ABOUT SAVING OLD CLASSIC CARS AND MODIFIYING SOME ALONG THE WAY TOO.
WE LOVE THE CLASSIC RESCUE , FIRST WASH ,FIRST START IN YEARS TYPE OF THING, GETTING OLD JUNK RUNNING AND DRIVING THEN PUT BACK ON THE ROAD AFTER YEARS OF BEING LEFT TO ROT IS WHAT WE DO.
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOUR INTO FORD , HOLDEN , CHEVY , BIG BLOCK SMALL BLOCK OR ANYTHING IN BETWEEN WE MIGHT HAVE A VIDEO FOR YOU TO WATCH. IVE HAVE AND HAVE HAD A LOT OF CARS INCLUDING XB COUPE , XY FACLON GT , EH HOLDEN , F100 , VB COMMODORE , HQ SEDAN AND WAGON , CORTINA , VALIANT AND SO MANY MORE SO THERE IS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE. IN ON OF OUR VIDEOS I PRETTY MUCH WENT TO HEAVEN FINDING A WRECKING YARD / JUNKARD WHERE THERE WAS EVERYTHING YOU COULD DREAM OF INCLUDING A MONARO , CHARGER , VALIANT PACER , A FALCON COUPE , TORANA , CADILLAC , SOME CHEVY'S EVEN SOME JDM CARS LIKE DATSUN , NISSAN SKYLINE , MITSUBISHI SCORPION BUT IT DIDN'T STOP THERE EVEN 4X4 LIKE A HJ 45 TOYOTA LANDCRUISER AND A 60 SERIES WAGON . I REALLY HAVE NO BIAS I LOVE RESCUING THEM ALL SO DO STICK AROUND AS YOUR BOUND TO SEE SOMETHING YOU LIKE. CHEERS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO WATCH . MICK

[@GoneFalconcampin]

Mate I remember back in my teens a 253 HQ was the shizz. A 308 was the go. If you had a 350 you were a god not to be messed with. Big blocks were a thing of fairytales. Love your work....

[@backshed5295]

Your 100% right mate. I remember looking at my old car thinking “ but only cars in magazines have big blocks” way back then it was a big deal . Cheers for watching my walk down memory lane mate.🍺🍺👍

[@backyardbangers1012]

Yes in my teens I was called a god in my hj kingsy with a 327 chev and 2speed powerglide. True story that's why i had to comment

[@NoelHaverly]

I have been watching these videos for a little while now and it is causing me great distress. Because Mick is doing it and I'm not, ha ha ha keep it up mate you are great to watch

@@backshed5295 would love to see a WB ute with the rectangular headlights not caprice longer style. Particularly would like to get a video on restoring said headlights (removal and replacement of clips and bulb surround etc).

[@kevinspinner5428]

Good to see a truly honest video from a old mechanic that worked on hundreds of these.

[@backshed5295]

Cheers Kevin I appreciate ya watching buddy 🍺🍺🍺👍

[@brucehayes7251]

Best times on the road with real Holden's in the 90's, I bought a hx from the 9 ways in Brisbane ,changed oil and drove home to central coast of NSW. Next up a hz with 253 5 speed Celica. Stupidly let them go for newer vehicles, bad decisions.

[@douglasmiller8451]

I have a HJ statesman with 454 turbo 400 and 9 inch with factory air done conversion in 1991 still own it and still runs watching this video reminds me the same conversion process brings back memories. Nice job on video

[@backshed5295]

Cheers Douglas for watching mate That stato would be cool , I love these H-series bodies with big blocks ! They are made for them. 🍺🍺👍👍

[@unwoke1652]

Many of these larger cars sold as Chevrolet, Holden or Vauxhall, started life as Opel Kapitän, Admiral, Diplomat, etc. For a while, we also had the Australian Holden branding in South Africa. The Holden Monaro GTS V8 was particularly popular. Chic magnet indeed.

[@backshed5295]

🍺🍺👍cheers mate for watching and your knowledge of these old cars

[@peterc2876]

Again I’m learning something new with each episode watching how you solve some quite technical problems for the unmechanically minded like myself, great content!!

[@backshed5295]

That is one thing I love about cars , the memories. As I said in the video this one is memory lane for me too. Cheers Paul and stick around mate the HQ is back again very soon 🍺🍺👍

[@ToyodaMaster-tq6ht]

Great build Mick! However. 1: The Oil Pump intermediate shaft must be clocked to 2 & 8 o’clock position to achieve #1 Distributor pin lining up with cylinder 1 Intake Runner. 2: Unless a fella wants his Cooling System full of Rust. Never use Well Water in an Engine. Using Distilled H2O ensures that zero mineral contamination enters the system. Ground Water will 100% rust the water jackets every time. (Distilled H2O & Coolant will last indefinitely. With absolutely zero rust.).

[@backshed5295]

Thanks mate , however , the pump and distributor are in and fine hense it ran and dont put coolant in any engine till its proved it doesnt leak and guess what , it leaked .🍺🍺👍🍺🍺💪💪

[@davidmccrory5604]

Great episode very enjoyable just like hanging around with a mate

[@nojabjonny]

Not only a jack of all trades of automation but an editor as well, be honest what was more time consuming, the build or the many hours of editing.. great job all around Mick.

[@backshed5295]

Hahha. You have obviously had a hand in editing mate . It took a while that’s for sure . I mean days not hours but that’s how I prefer to do it . If you enjoyed it then it’s worth it mate. 🍺🍺👍

[@anonymity6876]

[@backshed5295]

Cheers mate 🍺🍺👍

[@soyounoat2814]

Great build! The BBC spices up the recipe nicely. The tail lights in the bumper look to be the exact same that GM used on the full-size 1969 Chevrolet in the US. Those Holdens are good looking cars, never see them here in the States.

[@backshed5295]

Cheers for watching mate . Yep I’m a big block tragic but we didn’t get them in any of of cars here so I’m very jealous of some of your cars stateside 🍺🍺👍

[@backshed5295]

Nice ! 🍺🍺👍

[@brettsalter3300]

Most enjoyable mate. something very satisfying watching vehicles in this stage of decay? (or useability), and seeing it given a new lease of life, but at a 'use what is lying around' level, not just chucking everything in new. Ever since George Lucas talked about a 'used universe' in Science fiction, with all the technology futuristic, but old, (and yes, I know this is not restoring space craft) it really resonated, can't really explain more than that, but thanks for sharing.

[@backshed5295]

[@KiwiStag74]

I fell across your channel (and this video) quite by accident, mate. Thought I'd give it a look - and am now a subscriber. Enjoyed that episode from start to finish and about to go trooping through the others on the channel. Always regret not buying my Grandad's HQ Kingy back in '91. I had plans for that thing that probably would have made the old boy's hair stand on end. Unfortunately, my father wouldn't let me buy it - reckoned it was on its last legs. The old 202 had done 171k and still had 40 psi at idle when warm and didn't smoke.- just needed a valve job to bring the two missing cylinders back.....but as it turned out, it was just a head gasket and that was the first time the old boy had had the head off the thing since he bought it back in late 1973.. She had 3-on-the tree, disc brakes, cream bench interior and hood lining, brown carpet, brown dash top and was Saffron in colour....and as you'd expect, she'd been looked after. She sold for $NZ1750. I would have been getting it for $1200....... I loved driving it and never missed an opportunity when Grandad asked if I wanted to. My Dad was a Ford man all through my childhood and into my late teens, so I was very much in the closet as to my love for the Holdens. I thought they looked better and were way more comfortable on the road....ans when I drove Grandad's car, I thought they were pretty easy to drive for such a big car too (my own car when I got my license was an Austin A30). I loved that HQ and always wanted to own it....and I was pissed off that Dad wasn't on board. However, I did convince him a few years later to go look at an '86 VK1/2 Exec 5-speed (EFI black motor) with me. I drove it and loved it...and then he drove it and liked it so much that he bought it before I got a bloody look in! Suddenly, Holdens could do no wrong.....but finally I could get myself one without having to park it in the street several doors down so he didn't have to look at it......but it took me another 3 years to do it and by then, he'd traded the VK for a VN V6 manual and then onto a VN V8 Exec 5-speed manual My first was a 91 VN V6 Exec 5-speed and this and Dad's V8 Exec (now sporting the full SV5000 fibreglass body kit, a big bore, headers and cheese-cutter Holden rims) were the cars at out wedding. He owned this car until he passed shortly after the wedding, but I sent him off with a 21 rev salute from the beast and a long black line that I think he would have been proud of. I've had many Commodores since then, but I still grumble about missing out on the HQ, because I reckon I'd still own it....and it would have been similarly equipped to yours, except I prefer manual to auto. Owning one has, sadly, gone way outside my budget now though, so I'll just watch you enjoying yours! All the best.

The original washer pump was attached to the wiper motor. When the rubber valves degraded many converted to the washer pump on the reservoir, that is why the blue and yellow wires were added.
