I lost mine a year and half ago. We, coming from a typical Indian middle-class family, never had a 4-wheeler in the family. So when in Aug-2020 when I bought a new hatchback, right after first service of 500km, drove 350km to my hometown and surprised my father with it. I could see the pride in his eyes.

Hey Mortske, I watched the entire video IN ONE SITTING . A story that is very important about you , your Dad and a favorite car of his as well as how much your Dad means to you. And that , Mortske , is GOLDEN !! And I really enjoyed all of it I believe your Dad is thrilled with this wonderful birthday gift you gave him. I am 68 and I've know men , had buddies , who are like your Dad . Men of few words . You know to look for other signs so as to gauge their emotions . "What the heck is that..an LS" ? ; "Holy Cow ; As you enumerated the components--- "you didn't have to go that far" , after sitting inside and starting it---" Very Nice" --"this took you awhile, didn't it"-- too loud for ya ?---"No"-- So happy belated birthday !!!-- "Very nice" . "So it's acceptable anyway" -- and the clincher "Oh it's a whole lot more than that" . He really likes the muscular , throaty sound . "3 inch is better as long as it all fits well underneath" . And the cherry on top--"This could be a really SWANKY (def: Imposingly fashionable and elegant) car once it's all polished up". He already is very impressed with the readout screen on the dash . Mortske , you hit it out of the park with this gift . You can be sure of that Bud !!! And in doing this you created and shared with us a memory that will always be there . Thank you for making and sharing this video with us , Mortske !!!!

I just love the story and how neat your dad has everything setup as he tries to rebuild it until one of his sons takes it from him just to put a LS in it!!! Something completely different than he ever thought about having in it and then gets it all done just long enough for him to drive it around the block and then tell him he’s going to take it for a road trip!!! Lol!! Totally one of the best stories ever!!! I’ve watched this video 3 or 4 times now and I’m watching it again now!!!

“It only needs what it needs.” Those are words to live by. The idea of putting a 140k mile LS in anything without a rebuild sounded crazy to me, but now I get it. It lowers the cost of admission. When I was wrenching, I always wanted everything perfect and therefore I spent MUCH more time working than I did driving and smiling. Mortske has the right philosophy. It sounds simple, but the words are genius. Thanks Mortske! Also, phenomenal job. I can’t freakin believe you got all that work done between a 9 to 5 and two KZbin channels and still found time to sleep! You’re quite a guy!

You're getting better at that too! Duff looked like he was putting in some late hours with you on this one. But he sure did enjoy having his nose in the wind, even if you couldn't see in the sideview mirror. Can't get enough of the 60's GM's. Looking forward to the brake upgrade and seeing the old Skylark in future installments! Thanks for bringing us along.

Love this. Just so happens I'm doing a 65 buick special. It's got a mild built sbc. I was gonna do a 2dr conv but decided just to leave it and make a nice driver. You did a great job on that for sure. Your dad is a man of few words. Hope he enjoys it

put that Buick motor into the Jeepster that would be sweet , He put soo much work into that engine that you have to do something with it . I learned a lot watching you do this LS swap , that was one hell of a job , nicely done and that the car looks stock on the outside is the way to go

Awesome project you did for the old man. Really enjoyed the extended length content. Gets me through the daily grind called life. Even though he may be expressionless you could see a little excitement out of him. In his own little way. I'm sure just having his fathers car back on the road meant alot period, regardless of the engine. Especially like the "I'm sure this took you awhile". Lol. I'm sure he knows you busted your butt to get it done for him.

We need the brakes video! That was a LOT of work to do this and record/edit this whole thing. Thanks man. The length might be an issue for some, but I'd rather watch a project like this all at once. Besides, KZbin saves where you left off to watch it later.

Very cool you can do this for your Dad. My Dad was a fighter pilot and 'gave all' in 1966. I many times wonder what life would have been like for me had he lived. He was also a major gear head! Congrats on a job very well done!

A great vid for sure. Gave a guy the warm fuzzies when you got it home to your Dads and your initial 'tension' evaporated when you got the physic 'thumbs up' from him! Top job Mortske. There's something to be said about dem LS's fer sure. Great that your family are hotrodders, so anything goes. Buick into that 'A' roadster sounds a good idea. Make a great co-lab vid with your Dad. His dry humour a great foil to your exuberance! I have a set of Buick/Olds 215 alloy V8 headers here which are a dead ringer for the 300 ones ( the one off on the table near identical). Maybe only port sizes smaller. Hope you enjoy the trip. Another good video we hope. How about "Built Mojo tough" for a logo idea?

I had a 69 LeSabre. Pretty much the same specs as Lillian. I paid $50 for it from the original owner in 87 with a bad water pump and 60k on the odometer. It's still one of my favorite cars. Love these builds, they bring back so many memories!

Normally I identify with Duff in these comments. However. In this instance - this is a total labour of love. For your Dad. He’s so totally chuffed. It’s so very clear. What a huge achievement Mortske. & a grand pleasure to come along for the emotional ride. Cecil B DeMille, David Lean, Stanley Kubrick. & now Mortske & Chin productions. Better & more enjoyable content. Than most feature films. Duff & I bow our heads in humbleness. & how about ‘Mojo Tough’. 🙌🇳🇿
