Coyote Swapped 1963 Ford Galaxie vs original drum brakes?

[@louisnuse3953]

Thanks I see how you stay motivated, your test drive destinations are awesome

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thanks @louisnuse3953

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thank you for your support! Really appreciate you! 👊🏻🏁👍

[@WilliamKiene]

Everyone needs to subscribe to these good KZbin channels. Big old American station wagons are getting extremely popular. This workshop is off the chart. I really like this 1963 Ford station wagon. A friend's dad, CHP officer, bought a new Ford 1963 1/2 fastback with a 427 and 4-speed trans. Lucky is a real veteran mechanic who knows a lot. I am 79 and am so jealous of you guys still building cars. Thanks to all.

[@63FalconHT]

Youve rekindled my love for the 63 galaxie. Always wanted a hard top 63 Galaxie to go with my 63 Falcon. Because of you I can't stop looking for a long roof.

[@jameshurd4815]

Lucky is the COOLEST!!...without even trying

[@grumpydude6802]

A definite twofer today, Lucky! A ride in the long roof and another cool dive dining spot!! You are the man!

[@tomlohan4741]

Love the car its good to update the master always nice to have breaks

[@garyhosier4765]

It’s always amazing how many little modifications there are when you move away from stock. Especially a totally different chassis!

[@bd0727]

It is a small world - my son and I just put that exact Leed's kit on our '63 Galaxie 500XL convertible last night away from the single pot / drum brake setup. Used their power booster version. The discs on each side took

[@markkennon3552]

Lucky, I love watching this wagon build. As a guy wrenching on a 59 edsel wagon, it's awesome to see other wagons getting done.

[@SUMTlNGW0NG]

I got talked into trying out Trejo's tacos and expected some average fast food using a celeb name to get by. I was pleasantly surprised, real good food served by some super friendly staff. Wish I got out that way more often.

[@Hopwhisperer]

2 things 1st love that you gave us 3 hp numbers in 15 seconds. 2 I drove a 70 mustang with just the e brake for about a month to work. After about the 4th red light we fish tailed through my buddy kept asking “why are we not taking the bus?!!?” 😂

[@RandallNorris-y7z]

Loved the video, snapping necks in both directions...well done.

[@rajcam80]

Heck yeah, Longroof life!!! This ride so sick!

[@Novaman66]

You have to be the only Tech , I have ever seen work with what looks like a Rolex on your wrist very Cool!!!

[@johnchambers12]

I love the truck build , it is coming along nicely. The brake work looked like it needed to be done, race engine against old single pot master from the 60’s. Great upgrade. It must be nice to have all of that bench space . I always use my vice on a pedestal i can place it next to where i’m working just like my tool cart!

[@americanautomobiletech]

Lucky you need a 3/8” square drive impact! Wrenching and tacos, nothing better. Thanks for the video👊

[@luckysgarageshow]

I hear ya, tacos are the best fuel for wrenching!

[@MKdefends]

Nice drive I lived down there for a while 1981 Worked at a Shop on Washinton and Houser.. Moved to Chino Hills in 1986

[@ragtopdeluxezl1]

Thanks Lucky we enjoy your videos a lot...

[@luckysgarageshow]

Appreciate you watching!

[@Chuck.S.]

Here in the North east we call it "All go and no Woah"

[@luckysgarageshow]

That’s exactly what I’m talking about. 😂

[@coreysweigart4290]

Tacos are the best food! It's good to see the single pot changed out!

[@bobzotzman5253]

It isn't just the danger of hoses blowing on that single pot, I had an old Mercury pick up and the brake pressure switch shorted and blew right out of the housing and poof no brakes. Leno says that those things are so dangerous that most concours car judging won't penalize you for converting to safer brakes. Love your show and never miss one.

[@jacobjawson5556]

Thanks for explaining the single pot system. This helps explain an issue a T brass block on one of our old work trucks that originally was a single pot.

[@TorontoModifiedKarKlub]

When you guys go on your test drive lunch outings. you are the only ones in a kool old ride.

[@markseidl5326]

I called gear star on a transmission for my square body. Thanks for the advice, really nice people very helpful patient.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Glad they could help you out!

[@robertcash2975]

Used to think that wagons were just parts for the good cars, wow how times change. Keep it up.

[@luckysgarageshow]

I'm glad you're enjoying the build!

[@wayneb7190]

"I've been pretty fast in the car... on a closed corse, one time we went to Mexico." Lol, Love the lunch time cruises in your videos, keep it up Lucky.

[@AndrewMcelhaney]

The cruise without the hood drove me crazy. I kept thinking the left hinge was someone about to walk in front of the car!

[@daleyhanson5889]

Love the look on the Colonel's face @39:28,,,when you said anybody seen Styx,? It was like, are you talking to me,,?? Great video, good fun, Thanks Lucky, 😅

[@jerrygaynor4384]

Your Wagon fits write at home at DANNY'S!! Keep the greasy side down Lucky!

[@Paul-o2p]

Wagons are cool. My first car, the family hand me down , was a 65 Pontiac Catalina 9 passenger wagon. I beat the crap out it. It was fun.

[@blackbuttecruizr]

Thurston Powell the 3rd!!!

[@luckysgarageshow]

Love it!

[@richrudowski5417]

I love the wagon. Has to be my favorite vehicle

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thank you!!

[@MAGLtd-hh3ct]

Morning ! Great upgrade to the wagon, now you have better brake stand control system on that beast,😅,lots of project/jobs,so lots of content in the future? Good stuff Lucky, watching your videos is like a virtual hangout in the shop, have a great day!👍🇨🇦

[@luckysgarageshow]

Appreciate you tuning in! 🇨🇦

[@noduh736]

Lucky your one of the coolest doods ever a real class act

[@jamessawyer4625]

i like that you have a mic on you which helps a lot. Sounds really good.

[@rockercover]

39:13 Only Trejo I met did outstanding concrete and block wall construction.

[@randybock82]

Hotwheels needs to make a replica of the wagon to go with the Savoy. The wheels on the wagon are top shelf!!.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Great Idea!

[@randyduncan-i9y]

my grand father had a 1963 390 galaxie that the brake light switch you mentioned would cause a slow battery drain over three days i found out because i layed my arm on it and it burned the hell out of me when i yelled from the pain grandpa did not baby me he just said did you get it fixed i have seen many fords do that sence then when grandpa died i threw an extra holly on her and a four speed just so they would remember that old man

[@LoneWrencher]

My 66 comet -428 4 speed nitrous , has the single pot master cylinder on it.i need to change it before its too late.

[@matzrat5006]

More cruising LA. that was a fun one.

[@WilliamKiene]

We were in Sacramento building old hot rods in the 1960s but everyone knew Southern Cal was thee place for speed in the USA.

[@matzrat5006]

@@WilliamKiene Thats for sure. The S Cal virus , Hot rodding , spread thru the world.

[@davidmeyer6389]

That station wagon is cool!

[@WilliamKiene]

Probably my favorite body now.

[@rick74304]

Not gonna lie, I was a little concerned when I saw the length of the video. I wondered how much i’d be skipping due to poor audio from being too far away from the camera, but lo and behold, BAM ! You bust out a sweet mic set-up so we get to hear all the lucky-isms in all their awesome glory lol. Thx for removing the only gripe about your uploads man.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Glad you liked the new mic setup!

[@donmelvin7102]

Someone buy Lucky a set of snap ring pliers for Christmas.

[@roywhitman7109]

Out with the guys in my favorite wagon chowing down at Danny Trejos Tacos!! Lucky, you certainly know how to enjoy life!! 👍👍 BTW, it's 20° where I'm at!🥶 I'm wishing I was in Cali!!

[@LunchBoxWagon]

Iam a wagon man myself and that year is one of my favorites i would make that into a straight sleeper lucky. Set of twins onit leave the paint as is and drive it like you stole it. Keeo the videos coming lucky nothing but the best brother.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Appreciate you tuning in!

[@hughmc5419]

Well it's 10 deg F in Laporte,Indiana. I'm jealous you guy's are out in the sun & heat. Enjoy....

It's lunchtime somewhere 👍

[@scottway5553]

Your Ford wagon is my favorite. Been watching you since Overhaulin. Loved you and Tony. Good luck on your YouYube show.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Appreciate you tuning in!

[@moneygooddude]

I like your show better than when you did HRG! Less commercials more actual work getting done.

[@badcatt-the-cougar-guy-7219]

I wonder if; somebody ordered a 63 Country Sedan with a R code 427 4 speed. and the XL interior. I love that wagon you have Lucky.

[@monkeyfoodgarden]

Thank you Mr. Lucky. Wife saw the wagon and said that is awesome might be hope for another classic LOL. Keep up the great work and enjoying what y'all are doing. That KFC sign gets me a rolling every time y'all walk by. Call it LFC now. Y'all have a great day.

[@stuartstephens]

The old Sears building at 32:00 looks exactly like the old Sears building in Minneapolis. They must have used the same blueprints.

[@johnholliday6011]

Great video

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thanks for the visit

[@claytonargo3085]

Don’t forget the pressure/check valves needed for drum brakes. 😉

[@JoeFilardi]

hi lucky good ep

[@dustinthiessen]

I think driving old garbage to tacos with your buds should be a regular segment 👍🏼

[@dennisgallear409]

Three Joe's Tacos. You can park there bro! Non desperado🙂

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

It sucks about HRG. But life goes on. And I guess if I'm ever gonna find a old wagon. I'll have to go back to my stomping grounds in Westminster, CA. 6=8.

[@onehot57]

Gee sounds like my 2018 F150 Coyote! Or my 1947 Tudor with a built 347SBF, AOD , 3:89 RA !

[@RyTrapp0]

Love the Galaxy - but that thing desperately needs an intake manifold upgrade so you can get rid of those gen 1 plastics! Boss 302 or Holley Lo-ram would be a solid visual upgrade under the hood(if you need any more help spending money, just let me know😂).

[@robertf4540]

Check out Bill's Taco House on MLK in L.A. 4 or 5 tacos with a strawberry soda! YUM!

[@seanhayes1965]

Sticks!!

[@roylyle4339]

👍👍👍👍

[@onehot57]

Hi Lucky l started watching you because I wanted to build a similar car but after 51 years of looking for the right one I bought my dream car, a 1963 1/2 Galaxy 500 fast back with 34900 original miles it’s a time capsule all original so my idea of a Coyote swap is not going to happen but the first thing I did was a brake up grade to discs and power o did I mention the car has factory air and fords shity power steering! My brake kit also came from Leed . The previous owner had removed the engine and had the heads up graded to harden valve seats and guides all new gaskets and brass freeze plugs o yes it’s a 352 ci engine.

[@hectorraigosa7149]

You should eat at Los Cholos tacos.. they've got awards up the ying yang... I hit fullerton location

Dude, you parked right in front of the driveway to H&M auto body while you were eating tacos. Not cool. What if there was an auto body emergency?!

[@jimbote1968]

Woop! Coyotes are not the best sounding V8s. The older mod, non vvt, 4v engines have a great sound with basic exhaust.

I agree!!
