First To Go! More To Come - Saying Goodbye To My 1957 Chevy

[@kennethstaszak9990]

You're not lazy Dan. You're just selectively ambitious!

[@DDSpeedShop]

Oooo I like that

[@327JohnnySS]

​@@DDSpeedShop, you sound like you have a cold. Get some rest bud.👍

[@dustintart-yg8qw]

Hey you've done a great job of taking cars that were left for dead and brought them back to life and taught people along the way how to do a lot of stuff. You and Derick are my two favorites to watch. Keep on building hot rods!

[@mikepoint4717]

Well Dan , you’ve saved soooooo many beautiful cars , trucks and that’s a great thing and I really hope that the new owners will enjoy them for years to come . Cheers 🇨🇦

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks dude

[@RandyH-qf3dc]

Sorry to see that one without the DD logo as it is moving on. Congratulations to the new owner. It was built by a very talented builder. Enjoy!

[@danpatterson8009]

You're like me- never sells anything until it's in the best shape it's been in since you owned it.

[@jfv65]

And after the car is sold you get instant sellers remove.

[@Gkitchens1]

Story of every dad (*car) I ever sold. Best gmt400 I ever had was a 98 tahoe. Passenger door liked to swing open. Drove it two years like that just always had a passenger to hold it in case. Finally fixed if the day before I sold it. The fix cost $12.

[@danwilson7776]

That’s how you make the bigger profits (hopefully)

[@mikethomas5797]

Sold my hotrod 55' pick-up to a friend after spending ALL night tuning, tidying loose ends etc. Next day he came back whinning about "there's still a bit of a BOG when ya stomp it". Took it for a spin, came back & told him it ran better than the WHOLE TIME I had owned it & all the time of night before getting it ready for him. He seemed disappointed I wouldn't do more' so I held out the keys & his $- said pick one! He left w/ the truck!

[@davesaylor5135]

Hopefully the new owner of the 57 hardtop will finish the bodywork and paint it dan got most of the hard work done

[@Nichole-440HP]

“ a little rough around the edges “ that’s the charm of your builds . Solid work where it counts in less than perfect paint and bodies , grass roots hot rodding at its best …

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah its how I like em

[@bobshope9035]

So encouraging to see you selling some of your fleet and looking forward to your next ones! Love those Tri fives!

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah its a nice change

[@jonoskowski5545]

Sad to see it go. I loved watching you build it. Thank you for creating a great hot rod and allowing me to tag along videographically speaking. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@kevinwright1551]

Dan is always the man. That he knows his stuff. No matter what it is that he does. Keep up the great work Dan.

[@ronbritton7450]

Damn, I would have a hard time getting rid of either one of those 55 nomads. Your the man Dan

[@ralphhayward5693]

I can imagine this car with a clear coat shine. You did a great job on this and put your heart into it. Makes it hard to give up. 🇨🇦

[@johns9993]

Dan when you feel the regret wave come over you just say to your self I SAVED this or that car and it's back on the road better then it has been for 50 years ! Not turned to rush and recycle to be no more !! Good on you we , Salute You !!!!!

[@1944chevytruck]

Hope you get top dollar on them cars you worked hard!

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks!

[@jimclarke5822]

For sure you Dan you save cars and get them back on the road.Your work is much better then others you have honest videos. Never let the jealous people get you down

[@DDSpeedShop]

Oh I never do. I keep doing my thing

[@Dowin-o5e]

You did all the hard part, Dan !!! Ramble-On now !!!

[@jeffmooers2174]

Dani on LS's... "It has no soul, but it'll start!" I love her so much!❤

[@DDSpeedShop]

Haha she sont wrong

[@twodogsyyc6729]

90% of shit talkers probably dont even have a hotrod!! Dont sell yourself short we've all seen what you can do its a skill many dont have and are glad to pay for. All the best from Alberta

[@DDSpeedShop]

So very very true

[@davgaizx9733]

Keep inspiring us!!

[@jwjim]

Is Dannie ALWAYS this happy? Always smiling? She’s great

[@davidclemens1578]

Those parts of Dani's displeasure at Dan are likely edited.

[@DDSpeedShop]

She has her moments.

[@zems63]

They all do.. but in the end they put up with us, so it’s a catch-22.

[@allenstandley1010]

Your wife Dannie is a joy You Lucky Man. Been watching your vids over the years. I admire a man that does the best he can. I see it in everything you do. I say good job to another one done...and gone.

[@russupsidedowntopbottom955]

at least no one can say they dont know all about the car before they buy it

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah I ain't hiding anything

[@Pacavelli]

@@DDSpeedShop Why The Fire Sale????

[@jesusguzman5435]

I like all your 56 and 57 cars each one is unique look like fun to drive

[@gregorybarth930]

Not paying storage, insurance, licence, and trying to maintain them all should be a relief to both of you. I'm kind of hoping it leads to a bigger homestead with a nicer shop situation. Will have to see what kind of projects come next. Oh, and I get my can opener tomorrow :)

[@jfv65]

Actually i would love to have a garage situation like DD-SPEEDSHOP has...

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah very nice to cut out some bills

[@haroldrogers6083]

Yep Dani you need to get a key box with key tag key chains to hang on one of the garage walls to keep your keys organized and found easier . I did it at the wholesale warehouse i ran and even had back-up keys for each vehicle so if one set got lost we could use the truck . I found the key box and key chain tabs i used at Office Depot .

[@billyduffany3387]

Got to love how you fix things only when you sell it.

[@tonyt8805]

Your car is always it's cleanest is when you first buy or when you sale it! 😉

[@gregorybarth930]

I wish more people would at least clean the trash out before posting it for sale. If its that nasty when you post it I can pretty much assume that's how you maintained it

[@DDSpeedShop]

Looks thr best before it goes

[@bryceonysko6479]

smokey you the best . sorry to hear about your thinning the herd ,but new adventures are a head GBU you guys🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

[@JGW-81]

It's a sad day when a car guy sells his cars, but it's also a good day because it means that he can go and buy more, lol

[@mariomutt]

I wish you'd make a photo portrait of you, Dani, and Mer with all your Tri-5's. I'm sure it would be easier at the storage lot.

[@mariomutt]

I imagine it could make a nice poster to offer on the website, too.

[@PaulJFleischer]

"Definitely hasn't installed itself, yet," Me: Ha!!

[@mattzembower2042]

It’s nice that you have pictures and videos of your adventures in your car, now on to making new memories with other vehicles and friends !

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah il always remember em

[@kennethsonier1766]

Congrats on selling, I know you didn't want to but now you can move on to something new. Keep up the great work guys ✌️🇺🇲

[@jimjacobson8758]

Love your channel! Hot rods are great! I drove my brothers 71 340 dodge demon while he finished college. Wrecked the drinker side twice in one year! Hated to see that car go but he gave me a 64 442 to drive! Hated to see that go too but life goes on & changes come & we adjust. You’re a great builder & you drive the wheels off your cars & that’s what it’s all about! I’m 73 now & drive the wheels off my 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe, it’s not a hot rod, but it goes pretty good! Keep on keeping on you guys are great!

[@Beaterswithheaters]

What’s sad? You built it by yourself( none the less lol ) , you perfected it and you passed it on for someone else to enjoy . Sounds like a sweet deal .. Have fun guys .. …

[@IAmTheCoastalGhost]

Sad to see it go, but someone's gonna enjoy that car! 🤍

[@paulking6404]

On to the next.. Lookin forward to see what you've got comin up...

[@rodneylustila4520]

Best damn hood holder in Canada! Good job hot rod girl for sure.

That black Nomad is one tough looking machine!

[@JakeWeddle-zo4xv]

You're about 3 cranks away from having to push start the SOMADD lol. That starter sounds rough 🤣

[@DDSpeedShop]

Future dan fixes it at some point I'm sure....

[@kirkprell4493]

😂 Future Dan gets screwed all the time....

[@NemesisDawn]

I'd like to peronally thank you for every hunk of historical metal that you rescue from the grave.

[@gregorypoole5648]

Good on you, Dan...I'm happy to see you and Dani enjoying the One Last Ride.Great to know your reaping the rewards for all that hard work!

[@shanewright6958]

Here we go again. It’s time for another good one 👍👍

[@GPOldMarineShop]

You did your part hopefully the new buyers of the three Tri-fives will finish them and not leave them in patina and fix all the nickel and dime issues...I like what you did to the Camaro all around & as far as the painting choice too......

[@philpartin8618]

I never realized how many tri 5 chevys ended up in Canada. Apparently you have bought and gone through all of them in your country. At least your not doing the "Bad Chad" butchery to them.

[@marekkonarzewski4543]

The black and white one looked like an old moonshine runner parked at the storage yard while you were taking pictures… such a cool car just as is!

[@brettemerich3237]

This is interesting Dan you are working on this car just hours before it will be sold to make it as good as it can be. I m wouldn’t be surprised if you were working on a car that was already sold. I remember you installing the door panel. Cool solid car Dan

[@richsmith6952]

Have to say, this one hurts to see it go. ❤️😎

[@glenharper3136]

Thanks for the video.

[@paulbryans1732]

I am really liking the black widow,,, if you could just switch out the dash for one from a 55, then do the same with the front end,,hood, fenders, grill, bumper for 55 Chev stuff,,, you would be getting really close to a nice car!! Lol

[@StevenArmstrong-n3o]

Wish you were closer.I would buy one

[@kaimihedemark8394]

You need to make a T-Shirt series that says “Gentle, Gentle, Gentle”

right on man, getting lots done

[@c.d.england8217]

Lots of people talk shit about a car because they wish they had it and they couldn't build it if their life depended on it. I'm gonna miss that car and I have never been near it. You have to keep something Dan, build us some more hot rods and we will watch you 👍👍

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah I never let it get to me.

[@michelremillard3098]

Aw man, this car is one of my favourites! Was looking in facebook marketplace for the for-sale ad, LOL! Was day-dreaming about buying it, but some lucky guy beat me to it. Really enjoyed the videos about this car and the Power Tour. (Should have kept the decals "Fuel Injected, 366 ci", lol!) Cheers!

[@MikeStuart-p7p]

Dan congratulations on the sale of your cars as many people that want your cars you might consider doing a auction of some kind good luck on your future endeavors Mike

Can we get a tour of Princess Auto?

[@jeffbirtles]

Hi Both off you. I watched with my grandmother. Fiona is my daughter and she enjoys watching you guys I just wanted to say that I watched Dan explaining how to be responsible! I have a very fast sprint boat and I keep my passenger safe! But I am responsible for my passenger! And I don't launch unless my passenger is fully strapped in.! The laws here in New Zealand are really harsh. I can't take a rusty hq holden that I think is safe and drive it from Masterton to Tauranga. Please don't get me wrong guys. I would drive a t bucket through the desert road with my daughter. My mum is very supportive of us. Hello. I hope you and partner will be safe. Grandmother. Yip just me. Really cool. I sent you a message to stop messing around with the injection and put a tunnel ram with 2 450crm and double hump fuelies 2.02 196. Yip that was me Jeff Birtles. NEW ZEALAND!!!. Be safe guys.😊

This was kind of a sad one Dan. I could tell that the way you kept patting the fenders and the look on your face, deep down inside, it had to be hard to say goodbye to a friend like that.

[@DDSpeedShop]

Yeah it was sad. Owell

[@dewworm1666]

Dan, "lazy" you are not...I see a guy who's comfortable with what works, or what you'll put up with not being 100% original, Which is everything so long as you can drive it while not worrying about your feet pushing through the floor, but lazy you are not.
