[@chevahaulic]

[@cool62chev]

Looks great. I would call that body "shot." Lol

[@chevahaulic]

Yes it is !

[@Mopardude]

Leave the bullet holes, and tell everyone they tried to Bonnie and Clyde you, but failed. I like that truck.

[@chevahaulic]

lol, would be a good story !

[@jim-cu9yp]

That gillmore special is so cool .Love those 54`s ,I have a 54 panel van with a carbureted 4.3 gm engine .I use a one wire 10SI .and found I had to rev engine to cut the alternator in.It never would charge at an idle,I changed the regulator from A circuit to a B circuit one ,now it charges soon as the engine starts and charges at a slow idle.I have a WAI part number if you need it.

[@TheDocrock100]

Nice project. Good ideas. Thanks for the update

[@ziggassedup]

[@ironcladranchandforge7292]

Old school cool, I like it !! There's a company that makes alternators that look like generators for those. I had one on my '28 Doodlebug.

[@chevahaulic]

Thanks Jeff ! Those power master alts are cool old school looking. But dang expensive....lol This old gen will keep up with the little electronics will be running :)

[@MortskeRepair]

Man was this ever long overdue!!!

[@chevahaulic]

Way over due ! I need to get back into the grove of video ing. Just haven't been feeling it lately

[@MortskeRepair]

@@chevahaulic It's never a fun task! Ask me how I know!

[@MrHevyshevy]

[@chevahaulic]

I think it'll work , will find out soon enough :)

[@troytreeguy]

[@MoondyneJoe]

Woo hoo a 9 minute update from Chevahaulic!! 😂 Good to hear from you Matt and not fallen off the perch yet You are always up to something! Tony from Western Australia 🇦🇺

[@chevahaulic]

Hi Tony !

[@MoondyneJoe]

@@chevahaulic hi Matt I hope you are remembering to take time to drive the vehicle's that are yours occasionally and enjoy them. Tony

[@chevahaulic]

@@MoondyneJoe once winter is over , and the salt is off the roads. I'll be back to driving old iron . But intil then , they are all parked :)

[@MoondyneJoe]

@@chevahaulic OK I keep on forgetting that you use salt on the roads Here in Western Australia the only place that might get a very light sprinkle/dusting is about 50kms away down south of me in Albany on a place called Bluff Knole and that may happen about once every 3ish years We definitely NEVER salt our roads You would love it here Matt

[@MoondyneJoe]

Oops I meant to say 500kms down south of me Matt (damn auto correct) my sister lives in Albany

[@michaelclarke196]

[@chevahaulic]

Hi Rog !!! No , haven't gotten shit for snow . And I'm not complaining about that. But I am done with the fridged cold .

[@MrMach1]

Wow you haven't popped up on my feed in a long time. Still sub'ed but I just rang your bell so you should come up now. Great video! You always build the cool stuff.

[@chevahaulic]

I've been busy , glad you still remember my little channel :)

[@MrMach1]

@@chevahaulic One of the best channels I watch.

[@nickgeusebroek1210]

Was that car reported to have bonnie and clyde driveing it??looks good.

[@ElderlyIron]

Not a flexplate. You're in for a special treat getting that Hydramatic offa there! I might recommend reading the manual first!

[@chevahaulic]

Good to know Jeff !!

[@ElderlyIron]

@@chevahaulic I hope you didn't bid the job, unless it's just straight hourly! They don't use torque converters, but "fluid couplings". You have to leave the fluid coupling on the engine and pull that 300 pound trans, dumping 3 quarts of fluid on your floor! Then you get to separate the halves so you can access the crank bolts, THEN you can change the ring gear, IF you can find one. By the way, I know where there's 4 of those trans.

[@chevahaulic]

@@ElderlyIron that figures , they would make it super fun to work on. I've played with a few of these early transmissions , but from Cadillac's and Oldsmobile's . Knowing the bell housings on these early chevys . I know this was going to be fun . Might be why I keep dragging my feet on doing it :)

[@TheShadeTreeFixitMan]

Fun stuff going on in the shop as usual. I'm liking your banger racer. Why not custom make your own speed equipment? You did the header, you can always shave the head and...

[@chevahaulic]

Thanks George. To wake a banger up , it needs a cam , and a hi compression head . I could of shaved the head , but that doesn't get you far with a stock headed combustion chamber . We have plans for the next engine , this one will do fine to get things going

[@JerrysThisandThat]

You look familiar, do I know you? Lol Shop is still full of cool things I see.

[@chevahaulic]

Jerry , its me .... Chevahaulic !!! Your little buddy on the other side of the border !!! lol

[@mongomay1]

Can a ring gear be sized with the existing starter or upgrade starter to allow use of different flex plate? 🤔

[@SILVERHORSE347]

Lookin good my furry friend!

[@chevahaulic]

LOL !!

[@1966scoutcheif]

That's what I told her 😁👍

[@chevahaulic]

Ha !!
