**Building a '76 T-BIRD Derby Car**

[@joshk.6246]

I work for my local Telco, I just figured Paul ran his shop all the time, he has a lot of irons in the old fire. Love Fab Rats and your EZ Duz It videos.

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Yep! He’s a busy guy!

[@robertmyers4333]

Paul Cox is the man! One of the best derby drivers I have ever watched!

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Thanks for the kind words! You’re awesome!

[@brandenpaul8445]

Honestly love garage videos but kinda want to see more in depth videos on how Paul builds his cars and trucks!

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Then you’ll know all his secrets.........😜 I’ll try to be better at getting more footage. 😉

[@brandenpaul8445]

EZ DUZ IT Racing I’m a Wisconsin boy gotta bring Paul’s tricks up here I mean my last name is his first name 🤷‍♂️

[@mitchkayla9195]

Also in Wisconsin and would love to see you. Pine city Mn has a good truck demo. Mod class and see what u can get away with stock class. I think they run 13 different class there. They even have a imp class.

[@T.F.D.]

Amazing video!! Gotta love the family all coming together. My girlfriend and I both derby in Ontario! Way different style of cars, really cool to watch. We Wouldn’t have it any other way now we have a 2 yr old daughter that loves it and one on the way hope they follow are foot steps. Keep up the good work!!

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Thanks so much for the kind words! Congrats on the little one on the way!

[@Paul_Lane]

That exhaust sounds awesome. Looking forward to the day I can find a project cat/truck for me and my son. Grate video

[@angusyoungsg]

i can't believe he can make a quadrajet run that good. Paul truly is the man

[@EZDUZITRacing]

I concur with everything you just said. 😉

[@Koontzy.]

Qjets are very good carbs IF you know how to properly tune them. Not nearly as simple as Holley or Elderbrocks.

[@motoassassin]

Hahaha. I am just seeing this for the first time. Thanks for the shout out!!!

[@antprice2012]

Awesome video !! Glad to see its a family thing! Keep killn’ it

[@mictjustin]

More videos like these please! Its great to learn from the “pro’s”! Good job!

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Thanks for watching!

[@extersmedleyjr118]

Man like who cares if its got a vibration your going to smash it to bits. Gee Paul its not your daily driver. The thing ran for what ten minutes and came back looking like it fell off a mountain and didn't miss a single rock on the way down! Maybe clipping a tree or two as well and a Moose! I think its a hoot all the care you put into it just to wreck it. But I guess the fact it still ran is a testament to your prowess as a driver and yes fabricator! Though next time try to miss that Moose!

[@eformance]

You have to use compressed air or a wet rag to cool it down quickly.

[@teamunderbuiltracing9340]

Question how do you guys paint your cars and get them to look to bright and shiny my cars always look real flat and dull

[@EZDUZITRacing]

We get the paint with gloss in it..........looks real nice for about a day. 😜

[@eformance]

LOL, we know the rev limit is really whatever those springs float at :-)

[@alexhernandez-hd2kd]

I am 15 and want to build a big car motor swap and what kinda motor do y’all run

[@EZDUZITRacing]

This car had a 6.0 Ls in it! Love seeing the youngsters getting into this sport! Keep it up!

[@alexhernandez-hd2kd]

EZ DUZ IT Racing thanks

[@keithholten6799]

Heat the high side. When it gets hot it will expand and get higher but as it cools it shrinks and pulls it in the right direction

[@EZDUZITRacing]

👍🏻

[@mareklibelt3182]

When will the early T-Bird see action? Looks pretty straight and rust free.

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Those videos are coming soon! And it was fairly straight........definitely a rust bucket though. Lots of rust on that car!

[@mareklibelt3182]

EZ DUZ IT Racing Looking forward to the video!!.. I’m a big fan from Vancouver BC!

[@jeanniehunter6493]

This is so cool. Loved it

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Thanks for watching! You’re like our #1 fan!😉

[@jeanniehunter6493]

@@EZDUZITRacing I live in Charleston SC and most likely won't be able to see in person but watch every video made. I love you guys and watch every video you make. Totally awesome.

[@383novacaine]

You are true class act in the derby world thank you for sharing a look into your life love watching the garage videos the whole family involved one question what made you step away from trucks and go to cars

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Thanks for the kind words! I’ll post a video about that soon! Tons of people have been asking. Hopefully we can get him back into a truck sooner than later. 😉

[@bootlegbill63]

Another great video Thanks for sharing

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Thank you!😁

[@eformance]

Do you run a powerglide for derby?

[@kenhall7517]

Sorry bud this is a 77 bird, it may have been built in 7 /76 but that is a 77 model, the 76 is a big car like the lincoln mk3

[@karlisenberg]

You guys are awesome thank you for the video

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Thank YOU!😁

[@bombshell31600]

NOOOOO NOT THAT CAR ! ! ! ! '76 T-BIRD SAD ! ! ! !

[@williepelzer384]

No perfect

[@savageracing335]

Dont he run slider drive shafts?

[@michaelmcginnis9029]

Yes but the force from the impact and suden stop with all that power is busting the bell housing. I had the same trouble in my race car. Something has to give somewhere when your running big torque monsters. Usually its the gm junk rearend but hes beefed up to a ford 9 inch

[@yeahitsme1401]

Aye....rip to my phone speakers.

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Whoops!🤷🏻‍♀️😉

[@steveng2720]

Are u guys going to l v this year?

[@EZDUZITRacing]

That was the original plan, but it’s a team show and a couple of his team mates had some issues, including elbow surgery. So we’ll plan on that show for sure next year!

[@steveng2720]

@@EZDUZITRacing rats I was hope u was going, it would been a good show for sure. Oh well always next year

[@corywildung138]

What kind of tranny do you run? Punisher ? Heavy D? I know it’s a th400

[@EZDUZITRacing]

He builds his own.

[@T.F.D.]

Check out “building a derby car/ gender reveal” #2109. That is the cars we build and about all we can do to them.

[@johnmayfield4614]

What motors does he run dodge Chevy or ford

[@jacobeakright6387]

I think he's got an ls in that late 70s thunder bird

[@codylaird2827]

John Mayfield mainly Chevy

[@johnmayfield4614]

@@codylaird2827 ok

[@EZDUZITRacing]

Yep! This car is a 6.0 LS

[@drakeguth]

Seems like an expensive hobby. I want to build a derby car but if you need to do LS swaps and such to compete, could get pricey... Are there different classes?

[@j.j.clingman4083]

Michelle what happened?? You have a big mouth!! What’s up with that??

[@donwilliams3626]

Michelle has enough confidence in herself that she can get away with it.
