EXTREME Cold Start and Snow Extraction! 1962 Mercury Meteor Gasser!! 289 Ford!!

[@TomCheer9]

Thanks Cold for awakening fond memories! My parents had a spiffy gold '62 Merc Meteor. I loved that car with its smooth & peppy little V-8 (uh... 289 ain't too little) - even liked the taillights that required a foot long screwdriver to change the bulb. Seeing the old but still familiar dashboard brought tears to my eyes. I would get home to the Bronx from my day job driving a post office truck all over Manhattan and jump into their Merc parked near the subway for a quick stop at my local beer joint. It was like getting into a fine-tuned sports car after lumbering around in one of those PO trucks. A real treat! Everything's relative just like Albert said.

[@BitHead1000]

Awesome! Thanks for that story.

First time we see the car moving! The mighty Mercury Meteor ladies and gentlemen!

[@ReiseTime]

Really loving the car restoration videos Bithead, that Mercury sounds awesome!

[@Dtoys42]

That was sweet brother. Nice job getting out that snow bank. Take care.

[@KThxsBy]

Smells like freedom

[@Anarchist86ed]

Holy crap, it moves!

[@pix4434]

Sounds great! I was wondering when we would get to see it move! Keep the vids coming!

[@stevecraigretrogames]

A classic never dies!

[@Born2KillHD]

Sounds awesome. Reminded me of Christine. All you needed was Bad to the Bone to start playing when she finally got going.

[@oscardelmontay]

She sound like a real beauty 👏🏻

[@nightcrawlerCX]

It had to start, you're the chief of police!

[@Dsnyde569]

Love seeing that old beast move, that was cool.

[@ChrisSmith-cd7uw]

This is incredibly satisfying!!!

[@cheoart6308]

The sound of my childhood in the winter...everyone trying to start there car.... love it.

[@yeahgoood]

Yeah Bit ! Are you waking up the neighbours to the gentle sounds of some cherry bombs ? 😂 Love your work.

[@Guns7469]

Brother when you got in and showed the dash. All I can think about is the good old sr71 baby👍

[@Kane-B]

Awesome! This video sounded so good in my car, almost like I was there.

[@JoNev1]

Marilyn the Mercury Meteor🧨🧨Ya heard it here first! She's black 'n red and back from tha' dead!☠️🛠️💥💪 🏁(I noticed you mentioned '62 and Marilyn in a previous video brotha, and I figured I would offer a name for her if you'd like the sound of it. Keep up the great work you do Jesse.) 🇺🇲

[@mariojohnston7147]

[@flyingonblades]

Jesse... seriously this is the best series of videos I’ve ever watched on KZbin!! I’m so excited to see the meteor finally rolling down the road. Can’t wait to see more in the spring when you get a new rear end. Have you ever watched the movie “Christine”? If not I promise it’ll be your new favorite movie 🍿

[@mariojohnston7147]

[@Bobby8451]

BitHead with my machical background u need to replace ur engines piston rings and rod bearing like RIGHT NOW! IN THE SNOW. U CAN DO IT. BESIDES... THIS IS THE GREATEST CAR SHOW IN THE HISTORY OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION MY DUDE!!! LOL

[@zerodohc]

Were supposed to get some snow here in Indiana this week. Not looking forward to it.

[@FunkyFresh48]

Get 289 warmed up, grab a stick of Juicy Fruit, the taste is gonna move ya!

[@chriswilson9331]

I laughed at this too hard. I still remember that commercial

[@ElJulioso]

Not even a shit-tonne of snow can stop the awesome power of that fully armed and operational gasser! You evidently got a new differential. What did you put in?

[@BitHead1000]

It was a surprise to me even!

[@xLSDxUCSB]

I can't wait til we start making this thing look as beautiful as she sounds. The next Nightmare of Painting is this cars exterior.

[@neozeed1984]

she looks perfect

[@V1C10US]

I was surprised to see it running so soon after that freeway breakdown story, a month or so back.

[@6vibe150]

Haven’t even finished watching how the starter broke your camera and we have another upload. Ordained by god!

[@PunkNDisorderlyGamer]

Putting the hoop in hoopty.

[@king-gon]

the little mercury that could.

[@mariojohnston7147]

Ohhhhhh yeeeeah 🤝

[@letsgettaco]

Seeing all those extra dials in the car,tells us how far behind the car show is, and what we have to look forward to.

[@danmac0]

Awesome

[@ashc3765]

Haha showed that Mazda who’s boss!

[@RDStudios]

Put some chains on the tires and a plow on the front and make a few bucks. lol =)

[@jeffstephenson9316]

krusty chaos is free once again

[@Syx7h]

I lived right on a corner of a cross street and one block away from a main road. People around there loved their loud motherfucking cars and trucks. I don't have a problem with them really. Its just when they chose to drive them anytime between 10pm and dawn.

[@Darkinfiniti]

That old rusty piece of shit actually sounds pretty good. Nothing like a rear wheel drive in the winter. Next stop, mall parking lot, so you can knock out a few E-brake slides.

[@neozeed1984]

no E-brake needed

[@Darkinfiniti]

@@neozeed1984 That's true. I used to do donuts without any E-brakes when I had my old clunker rear wheel drives back in the day. They were a blast.

[@nikolaikai940]

That video couldn't have ended any other way, it's the BitHead1000 show after all 🤣

[@Kranekick1985]

Nice!!

[@ShiftyShifts]

Yessie it's time to start some body work!

[@black-galaxy]

Damn she sounds sweet man

[@HogFatherMN]

Back breaking, but kinda fun

[@PabstOban]

I can smell your car starting.

[@verygreedy100]

Yeahhhh buddy!

[@GaggleofDoozies]

That's alot of fucken snow. ☃️

[@guilhermechagas9106]

Best car show ever!!! Hahaha

[@gmoney9588]

If anyone wants to know why it’s so hard to start , it’s because it’s , A . like Antarctica in New York right now ❄️ , B . it’s carburetored and with NO modern electronics . All things considered , it started and idled . Let’s keep in mind also , it isn’t started , ran or driven everyday . Yes sir mr. Burns , AMERICA WINS ! 👍✌🏻🇺🇸

[@johnnyola2205]

Bet having no floorboards is quite chilly, too!

[@popsracer]

Sound travels farther in the cold so instead of a block away, everyone can hear you coming from 2 blocks away.

[@motothumper5598]

Why is the front sitting so high? Is that how they were originally?

[@BitHead1000]

Straight axle+leaf springs….

[@neozeed1984]

google gasser

[@BigEpinstriping]

nice. Now you gotta start patching that floor!

[@BitHead1000]

The floors allow the snow that blows in from the non existent window seals to exit the car.

[@SaberToothGary]

Hahaha, excellent!!

[@5HlNOBI]

W00000T!

[@showmeclips9031]

Would of liked to hear your wife's reaction when you told her about smashing the plate off 😅

[@TomCheer9]

Who do you think took the vid of the mighty Merc disappearing in the distance?

[@maxabeles]

@@TomCheer9 prolly just on his tripod tbh

[@amigoamiga9254]

let it rip 🔊

[@graybeardproductions2597]

I got a 62 Meteor in the driveway . Waiting for me to swap motors, friggn rights

Hey, now that’s the winter I’ve known my entire life. You wouldn’t have gotten any work done on that car for the past two months if you were up here.

[@JPlokford]
