Let's Make This Mustang ROAD WORTHY Again - NNKH

[@The-Deadbolt-Deputy]

I’m a locksmith for 20 years and it was good to me to see you pick that cylinder open. I have to say , 150 bucks is crazy high to make a key to that lock. We do that job for like 40 bucks if you already have the lock off. Well done you did good. Thanks for sharing

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

Yeah seems a little steep to me as well. I would have been happy to pay 50 bucks. But glad I ended up doing it instead. Didn't take very much time at all. Appreciate you tuning in. Thanks

[@chrisoakey9841]

Just swap those locks for solenoids. Then it can be pushing a hidden button to withdraw the bolt.

[@debbiebermudez5890]

Mr. B. Here ! 🍩☕️👀😎👍. Morning ! Am sorry too fans of the show makes no sense . A hold lot of money ????🧰🔧🪛⚒️📐

[@homemaintenancebyclive153]

Often the locks have a number on outside which a locksmith can convert to a key cutting

[@scrivens100]

$150 is a no thanks. $6.00 is what I pay when I bring the lock and key

[@brandonlowe5955]

Yes!!! Thank you putting the time into this!

[@imnotamused23]

Whatever you do, do not get rid of that rollback. You'll never find another one like it, that thing is super cool and one of kind. Thanks for all the entertainment the past couple of years. Love watching your channel grow!

[@zvarre2]

Yes keep it, if you need put a banks kit or a turbo from a 6.5 liter diesel, gives some power and even a little better fueleconomy 👍

[@davidbryant5875]

He will sell it .. guaranteed.. never keeps anything long.

[@tomfogarty9664]

I was amazed that Chris repaired the rear brake cylinder on the truck at night yet, gets it done and then the front cylinder let go. If that happened to me the whole neighborhood would have known about it. Having such patience is priceless

[@TheHawke2112]

Chris is such a cool laid back guy working on his projects. I always look forward to a new video. Great content

[@zypherzozen]

IMO you make some of the best mechanical content on KZbin, so down to earth, thorough but no huge budgets and really relatable. Top job!

[@glennsepelak5113]

I love this channel. The way you talk to the camera and your personality, I feel like we're friends. Always looking forward to your videos. Thank you so much.

[@lbslawncare6627]

I am so glad you are giving this mustang a second chance. It is so cool to watch this come together a 67 was one of the best years.

[@RogerMudd-gh4ms]

I had a yellow 66 V8 coupe when I was 16. Didn't have any idea how good I had it! Chris, you're the hardest working man on the tube.

[@NoNonsenseKnowHow]

That's a slick ride to have that 16 years old! Super cool. And thanks, I appreciate you tuning in

[@dougcain832]

Good video my brother, you and your girl are amazing couple

[@garycamara9955]

I had a 65 Mustang, 4spd, 4bbl factory dual exhausts. It was dark blue metallic. Factory Kelsey Hayes wheels. I put a set of konis on it.. and a one inch front sway bar, a pair of cut down 429 Tbird springs in front a pair or Mayer racing rear springs, and rear sway bar, dropped the front A arms an inch (ala Shelby) lowered it 2 inches

[@thomasgoolsby8661]

I think you should stick with the 289 heads. Do the valve job and it should be just fine. I am glad you are getting the frame and putting this back on the road.

[@ecannon649]

I love that roll back, it has so much going for it. It is definitely worth the time and money spent.

[@chrisoakey9841]

It needs more boost.

[@davecody5997]

Chris your knowledge is very impressive for a young fella!!!

[@jeffhamilton2942]

Keep that engine original! It's nice to see you saveing this mustang and digging deeper in to a project as far as fixing the structural rust and rebuilding motor it really deserves to be back on the road again and all of the cool cars you have you pick this one to fix you must really have a soft spot for this mustang😊

[@MrSloika]

The 289 was a little gem of an engine, always worth saving.

[@brucevallee5623]

You already have the 289 apart. Replace valves, guides and regrind the seats new lifters and cam and rod bearings and main bearings, rings and water pump and enjoy it for years to come

[@alainbrisebois8334]

Yea...!

[@stanciotola6632]

100%

[@p9raceway759]

Replace with larger displacement engine for more smiles per mile

[@doctorprick2843]

I agree but if ya get a cam , get a double roller and use the 4 degree advance of cam timing to make it dig lig like hell on the bottom end, and hard seats and valve too.

[@RyanLeeProductions]

I really like your content man. Your "get after it" mentality when it comes to fixing problems and maintaining things is inspiring. Keep up the good work my friend

[@axemanfishing2703]

LOVE the RUSTANG. Also love that you are leaving the original condition rust/paint the WAY it IS.

[@NileKelly]

I do love shiny resto paint jobs on classic cars. But at the same time, I love old, crusty-rusty patina. You can take the same car--pimp it out or leave it looking like crap--I love both looks.

[@NileKelly]

Thank you for the reply! Way I think, the shiny car says it's been to the beauty salon. That same crap car says, yes, I'm old and ugly--but I have many life stories..Be it pretty or crap, we are ressurrected!

[@standavis7266]

Hey Chris, I just thought I would tell you about what I do when draining fluids from a car. I went to Walmart and bought a couple of those cheap 47" round kiddie pools..they make the BEST drain pans. They fit under most cars sitting in the ground and they cover 90% of the front of the car. Never get anything on the floor again. Best part is they are usually cheaper then a regular drain pan 1/5 the size. I paid $5 each at he end of summer. Also, good to see you aren't relying on the winch cable to hold the car. A safety chain or safety strap is a must...I have seen flatbeds lose cars when the cable snaps.

[@mtrgv]

Very smart decision to get the Mustang floor pan/frame rails removed and replaced at Petersons. I would also contract Petersons to do the front suspension rust repair on the 85 GT Mustang. That rollback will come in handy for all kinds of jobs.

[@martinjay5906]

I'm digging your antique tow truck with the sleeper and the stang in the back make a good pair. Thanks for the solid content.

Saturday nights are NNKH nights....thanks Chris....BTW.... keep a check on the growing hair .... I guess it will be a long while before you advertise KEEPS on the channel 👍

[@duncanmacrae6384]

You might look into going with a T-5 trans instead of the Toploader. It's a great trans, but, unless you really get a find, it's spendy. Then, you can put some lower gears and a locking diff in. Even if you rebuild the 289 heads with the 2 BBL and a dual exhaust, it'll seem as fast as your later GT. Looking forward to seeing more of all the Mustangs!

[@buffdoc46]

Can't get a better man to do the metal work. I've been following Peterson's for a long time. Just clean heads, reseat valves hone out cylinder walls, new bearings, timing chain and keep the engine original.

[@CaptainAtSea]

Hell yeah! I’ve noticed that you add different substances to oil, fuel, and coolant. You often mention the product names, but not what they actually do. Unfortunately, we don’t have the same products in my country. Could you create a video or explain what you’re adding and in which situations? 😊 As always love your content

[@RobHowdleMusic29]

Always stop what I'm doing to watch your videos. Love them! Always great videos and really informative too!

Hey Chris, great job on the mustang, keep the original heads!! also keep the flatbed, it's great that you've already used it several times!! Gus still needs his own channel!!

[@tx6642]

Chris- Stick with the 289 heads. Get a decent valve job and new valves and springs. An aluminum intake and a small 500-600 cfm 4bbl. will really wake up that motor. Also a T-5 transmission would be a good choice (the same trans that is in your Fox body Mustang) if you cant find a cheap 4 speed.

[@roaddawg831]

I'd say if your going to use the original engine. Do a valve job if it's 40% savings or more then new aluminum ones. Throw in some rod bearings and send it. That's just my opinion but your choices are more educated. I love your channel ❤️

That was classic NNKH. Loved it, especially the motor teardown. I’d leave the stock heads on it for now. Seems quite easy to work on. Maybe you can score some oem valves for the stock heads. If anything needs a turbo it’s the roll back.

I wouldn't bother with a 4 barrel unless you were going to tow a trailer If I were considering a carb swap, I'd go for a EFI kit but that pricy
