[@Ohhdeeds]

I love this owner, he's so humble and grateful. Great guy.

[@richdiscoveries]

Ok I got you on the turn signals. 53 or 54 they become standard equipment. That particular switch is an aftermarket switch. That car did come factory with a turn signal switch and if you look on the column just above that switch you will see the threaded hole where the original lever was. The column switch probably broke at one time and someone just installed that switch that they had from another car or just because it was probably cheaper. So yes it did come factory and yes that switch is aftermarket.. Hope this helps, Hoon on gentlemen

[@DSTROYRvids]

Yeah with old cars things happen and people just make do. Good looking out.

[@gabrielmalta1962]

Hot Rod gurus like you scare me to death.. Like, how do you even accumulate so much knowledge of such little details of so many cars? Anyway, big respect for you

[@richdiscoveries]

That Regular Guy Lol it's all good buddy. Many hours spent reading hot rod magazine as a kid, and many nights spent in shops growing up rebuilding cars, and many many hours researching one little problem or detail and just clicking and clicking through page after page all night untill I realized it was 6am and I had to be at my regular job already. I just have a true passion for automobiles. And answering questions like this for people or helping to add original touches on builds that otherwise would be overlooked is what i live to do. Honestly most of the time the little things wouldn't matter, but i have a few friends that build amazing cars, but sometimes I can find the small things that would ruin a judging competition. A part that didn't come factory or even something as small as a bolt that is not period correct. Shit like that can ruin a build when the judges come out. I'm not saying I can build anything that spectacular, but i know all the stupid little things that can't get me paid.. Lol Just find you passion and peruse it, it will be rewarding to yourself, and in the end there is no one more important than yourself.

[@gabrielmalta1962]

+Rich Guglielmo Please keep spreading the knowledge to the community, that's we all need! And yeah, at a restoration competition or even a competitive car show, even hubcaps that haven't been polished enough can ruin a perfect car

[@evanhineline4784]

Shout out to Jon chase, fucker knows the perfect songs for each and every car he looks at #sendit #scumbags

[@DSTROYRvids]

thanks I try hahaha

[@mikecrittenden464]

Evan Hineline damn I said the exact same thing well basically but yeah that was the perfect song for that car damn good vid for sure

[@kuro-shijones8935]

JChase7452 you nail it everytime man... Keep doing it

[@rudderauthority]

So I just want to say how cool it is that you have such a variety of car people there at the hoonigan garage. All the bases are covered. Drift, track, classic/drag.

[@tjwrxwest4797]

[@lynnmckenney1987]

Beer with roadkill. Beer with roadkill. Beer with roadkill.

Beer with roadkill. Bear with roadkill. Beer with roadkill

[@shitbox7413]

I wouldn't hold my breath on that...

[@Fix-It-Jeff]

Dopest car EVER on HOONIGAN! Gotta love that old American metal.. Has so much more style than modern cars

[@floydframpton]

This is why I love classics, what does a super car have on this? such a beautiful car. 😍

[@AustinLeonardAutomotive]

I love this guy and his car. He's humble and grateful for what his boss did for him, and its his dream car. He loves hot rods and low riders so he's got exactly what he wants! :-)

[@lancebrown6757]

This guy John is a genius when it comes to picking car songs 👌🏾

[@chasemeyer6688]

I have a 51 Chevy deluxe with the original motor straight pipes and with those Mexican blankets too awesome car

[@nickmendez3707]

Suicidal Bleach fuck yeah straight pipes ftw

[@tdolan500]

That's so cool, it doesn't need anything more done to it.

[@TheCptawesum]

Perfect song choice

[@samr8958]

2 episodes away from the 100th... Wonder what the 100th special surprise is going to be!

[@GoredonTheDestroyer]

Shitcar vs Tank tug-of-war?

[@Leofred2000]

Beer with Hert :)

[@richdiscoveries]

The have already wheelied, jumped, it's time to roll something over. Weld a shit cage and build a half ramp..

[@nathanyoung3078]

My guess is a BBD on the Twerkstallion.

[@zachfosterWeeklyVlog]

I'm guessing maybe the forza ute... but i doubt it

[@j-tuned1955]

Awesome car awesome song awesome channel.

[@firstnamelastname7047]

I like it when Jon picks a song for every classic car that comes to hoonigan garage

[@iamthedrumandbassfarmer8735]

Jon's DTs are just classy af

[@DSTROYRvids]

hahah thanks

[@Blindly97]

Considering selling my honda daily and putting it all into my 53 BelAir and making it a daily. She’s stuck on the ground right now with some heating issues and a couple blown lines on the air ride. Great to see what you did to make it more reliable as a daily man! Thanks for this awesome vid!

[@johndoe-qu2xz]

Every time I find myself on the toilet at 3:00 am, you guys are always there with a sick video to pass the time. And that's a wrap for me too! It's kinda like holding hands, thanks buddies

[@connorflude8989]

Some good old fashion American muscle👌

[@chasemeyer6688]

connor flude ? It’s a 54 not a 74 it’s not muscle

[@steve-o5333]

Yes, that 327 smallblock is American muscle

[@holmesxd8231]

connor flude I know it was a simple mistake, but how about good old fashioned Americana?

[@nickmendez3707]

For back then it was defo muscle

[@evanverret3150]

Suicidal Bleach yes a 54 preceded the muscle car era but this one has been built into quite the muscle car.

[@montymeyer7172]

Love it man! Super sweet Mike just like it is. 54 Shivy with Serape, spiders and white walls. The candy top is beautiful. So cool. Is there anything better? Hell no. Mine just happens to be a 3100. Thanks for sharing. Cool that you drive it every day! Huge step up from a toda coma...

[@rustyjeep2469]

Fucking love it. I'd daily the hell out of that car too. I had the same Mexican blanket in my Mustang for years and had to keep it when I sold the car even though they're like $5. It just gets moved from one project to the next every few years...

[@TediI47]

What a comfy episode. Love the mix of high class high finish details and a more rugged and pure "kept as is" atmosphere. Super chill dude and I love the mexican blankets.

[@danielbrealey2924]

DOPE car guys! That '54 was beautiful as hell, what metal work to be able to display it all with no paint. Nothing looks better on an old girl like that than bare metal. Loved it, he's the fucking man for daily driving THAT. Nice skid at the end too... Top marks all round

[@mandawg408]

Keep the seats as is! Looks awesome!

[@peterlustig8021]

the paintjob on the roof **________________**

[@vicenteventura5901]

This guy has a good friend for everything

[@Calebc-hc6yr]

Anyone else daily drive one of these because you will know grandparents always talk to you about how they like learned to drive in one of these

[@SpeedyMC14]

This guy has to be one of the chillest people on hoonigan its one thing for people to do donuts in a race car because those are meant to do donuts but in a classic car its just different also I think jon is a really good host, #Morejon

[@mitchelsalas2499]

Lol the different feeling is knowing your in a metal bear can and if you get into a fender bender you probably wont find the part my 1950 was totalled just for a a rear fender but i baught it back from the insurance place so i still have it bro

[@_Spacecraft]

The paint job on the roof is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

[@831V]

Man I hate thursdays. Now I have to wait for a new DT video till Monday.

[@raleighsexton7734]

Mike Moreno is the man!!! Big girls don't cry, they wail!!!!!!!

[@AaronMelendez23]

Yes, 54's had blinkers. My dad has a 4 door, he's had it longer that I've been alive (over 20 years) I love that thing! #threeonthetree

[@DofNWEnt]

Design daddy?? More like nostalgic DJ daddy lol ... Jon is cold wit tha jam selection

[@DSTROYRvids]

[@tugmynips]

I absolutely love this car. Amazing build!!

[@carterkunz5730]

I saw this car the week before this video... It’s dope.

[@jon7258]

That blinker setup is the same one that goes on golf carts lol. No hate tho I think its really cool that he did it custom. Mad respect

[@upgradeNEVER]

Sick car. I love it! My interpretation of a car this age.

[@YUREVN]

[@KineticTaco]

Guy sounds humble. Good looking rig.

[@wizzfizz8989]

God dammit john you can pic a tune for a car man every one is spot on

[@rogelionosebest6348]

They did have blinkers in 54 but the original blinker are in the bowl that goes right under the steering wheel, the one he has are aftermarket

[@joekizonu9503]

I had a 60 over 327 in my 56, and it was more then warmed up. ran hot... you would need that big rad and the pusher to keep it street. kick ass hybrid (rod/cuztom).

[@andrewmarquez7128]

Hell yeah Suavecito I roll with them down here in San Bernardino

[@MrImpalaRider]

They call them shoe boxes Chevys. Kinda run of the mill basic build. At least 20 off the top of my head running around town. Bare metal, lace or candy roof, shaved handles, small block Chevy power train. The shark fin was kinda slick. Cool cat driving it.

[@ericaramburo7644]

[@unnoetigkeit]

[@pzkpfw2310]

Hard to beat the sound of chambered mufflers at high rpm

[@minivanin]

Car is badass. I would only change one thing...chuck the flowmasters and runs some steelpack mufflers like porters or mellowtones. More period correct

[@oniemployee3437]
