My Girlfriend Shoots Flames Out Hot Rod Exhaust and LOVES IT - Right In The Ketchup!!

[@meadmaker4525]

What happened to this build? This looks like the last video on your channel showing any progress with it. Was looking forward to seeing it finished and driven.

[@patrickdingman6934]

I thought I was the only guy that welded in safety sandals!!!!!!

[@DDSpeedShop]

thats what theyre ment for haha

[@Wooley689]

The look on her face when she first got in and you closed the door, priceless.

[@edwardberwind8544]

Dan as I have commented before you really "Have it together" You bring a smile to this old guy's face (77) every time you "Shade Tree" something to get it to work. I look forward to your ingenuity. Anyone that rips on you needs their head examined. Most young guys today don't even know what a starter solenoid is. Let alone how to hook up a battery correctly. A shout out from North Carolina USA. Good Stuff. Also Dani is a nice touch.

[@moreschmoo]

Honest to God ppl I was terrified the first time! The 2nd time was still scary but much more fun! Ha ha

[@sandvillage1242]

Haha epic! Its so addictive though!

[@josephdonkers7429]

Because of you two I decided to start building my own. I think I will go with a truck because winter here can be brutal and I need a daily driver. There’s a ‘79 bronco around the corner I want so I will walk up to the door with cash in hand if not I will try something else. The reason I want to build my own vehicle is because my dreams were crushed by many people and building my own rig is what I want to do so imma gonna do it for me.

[@moreschmoo]

[@garymccord4277]

Love the T ITS kind of hot rod I like simple and not overly engeneered so it will always be fun to fix if ever needed. I always use the starter sonolid to excit the alternator on my junk that I work on same wire use to go to dist to give 12 volts for easier starts. Then it dead ends in sonild and alternator in working, Like video keep em coming.

[@martinmayhem7122]

Gaining ground and making some good progress! Awesome with the flames and Dani showing the T who's boss! LOL

[@Stahodad]

Number 2 cable is good...lots of small wires is also good...the juice runs on the outside of the wire...like in a big welding cable. Wiring is fun!

[@DDSpeedShop]

Haha its somthing

[@braysanborn6000]

So if somthin goes wrong with electrical you'll know its the red wire . 👍😎

[@DDSpeedShop]

haha its easy to remeber

[@ronringel9132]

Nice job Dan. Love the slow motion; it's a nice touch to the video.

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks 👍

[@johnwayneisthisme3475]

Mr Hevyshevy is the one that got me on to your channel is awesome subscribed after 1st ep I watched... keep it up...

[@randyburdick5951]

Small beer keg for a gas tank would be cool.

[@karlmorrison7933]

I LOVED THE 57 TWO DOOR BUILD BUT THIS OLD SCHOOL ROD BUILD IS GETTING FUN!!!

[@richc9503]

Gotta love it! Danni was hilarious when she was revving it, she looked like a scared kid. Lol

[@markpro96]

Man you put a huge smile on my mug at the end of that video! Love the progress and I actually understood and followed your wiring explanation. Thanks for the lesson!

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks for watching!

[@BigJon129]

Dani looked like she had a blast. Good job on the video Dan!

[@jensenhealey907efi]

True professional wiring there where everything is all one color! This "red" wire goes to the starter power, this "red" wire goes to the starter solenoid, this "red" wire goes to the ignition switch. :)

[@DDSpeedShop]

the wiring diagram is so simple. red = + haha

[@hippychipsguitars601]

A boot from a CV axle might work for your steering seal. They make replacement parts that you can slip around the shaft without taking it apart.

[@DDSpeedShop]

yeah ive seen those i for sure need one

[@Rollormotor]

that 2 gauge welding cable is a great battery cable, stock cables are smaller, love Dani's expression when revving it.too cute, she might like it outside when its a driver

[@DDSpeedShop]

shell come around to it haha

[@Iann128]

Hell yeah! For the tank leaking, get a POR15 tank sealer kit. It seals rust and small pinholes real good.

[@coyboybc]

I have only been watching your channel for just over a year! I went back to watch the series of this hotrod! I think this car was awesome cool 😎! I would have enjoyed cruising in this wicked cool machine!

[@benjiereeves4919]

Anybody else notice the tv on the wall shaking when she mashed the go pedal??? Love it!!!!

[@DDSpeedShop]

haha its onlt got a couple screws holding it on

[@berniebaumcratz7344]

Really enjoy watching all your projects..

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks so much!

[@cfmechanic]

Awesome that you guys can share that experience.

[@RussellMccoy-l9e]

Love the build it is very cool u do great work and I learned a lot about building a hot rod thanks a lot

[@darrenmalott3836]

Can't wait to see it finished

[@chuckalexander987]

I'm thinking larger charge wire from the Alt. And ground wire from the back of the Alt. to the frame. Looking Great!

[@DDSpeedShop]

yup still needs some fine tuning haha

[@cbkidd]

Got to love that clip with the girlfriend and Flames. Looks like something from a cartoon lol. The girlfriend and you seem to have a lot of fun doing these video's very cool.

[@garykuhn1921]

The T has come so far. Looking good. I think you talked about it before, but are you going to do a top. A think a snap on canvas top would look super nice. Keep up the great work.

[@DDSpeedShop]

snap top is exactly what im gunna do

[@calvinsadler8986]

I believe that is two wire that'll work fine just make sure that you solder and heat shrink all your connections

[@christopherpeterson1400]

That thin strand wire ( welder wire ) is hreat for amp transfer..👍👍👍

[@DDSpeedShop]

Thanks for the info

[@OlysGarage]

Freakin Awesome!!!!! Think Dannie will get warmed up to it once you take her for a few hot laps! Looking good! That Doubble U-joint did the trick, looks like its gonna work minty. I've always enjoyed the wiring end of the projects. However..... we gotta talk about adding a few more colors to your wire selection, LOL! Looking great Dan, can't wait for the maiden voyage!

[@DDSpeedShop]

haha red wire was on sale

[@OlysGarage]

@@DDSpeedShop HAHAHA Figured as much! Hope you can remember them later on! Seen this heat shrink stuff that has labels on it (Ign, Start, LT Signal, RT signal, brake, heater, etc etc.), so bulk red wire guys can still find their way around their wiring. Pretty neat idea.

[@olskoolsgarage9987]

That’s badass!! Car sounds awesome!! Coming along!!i think Dani is starting to warm up to the T!!

[@gregoryware7636]

Awesome shirt choice! Great taste in music! What is your favorite song of theirs?

[@mikepoint4983]

What a sweet ride dan , boy she sure come a long way in a short time , but I feel your right on buying a new tank at some point . Keep up the FANTASTIC work . Cheers

[@jeffhunter2553]

A girlfriend that actually indulges your hot rod addiction, and looks adorable. I don't see how you could find anyone better than that she's a keeper for sure.

[@timirwin2412]

You should time the u joints in the steering so that they don't bind. That means that the joint crosses need to line up with each other.

[@backyardbuilttrucks1]

Early S10 gas pedal and cable works really well. I use them all the time check out speedway motors for a steering boot.

[@DDSpeedShop]

Nice! I'll check that stuff out

[@LovettSpeedShop]

Also buddy we received one of our DD SpeedShop shirts in. Still waiting on one. There nice.

[@ervingoertzen7233]

I have seriously been looking at such a project to build. Keeping it simple , would like to put a T body on a Model A chassis,. You sure are giving me an incentive, just do it .

[@1928ModelA1931]

Not sure about Manitoba but in BC a. Weld on your steering is an instant fail. Set screws on the universal joint are a must. Maybe you were going to do that?

[@shitbox7413]

Super impressive progress Dan, the car will be burning rubber in no time! 👍🏻

[@daveforsythe9021]

Much respect from Ontario

[@MrHevyshevy]

Here in the states we have other colors of wire. Orange, green, black etc. I could probably figure a way to smuggle some to you. Maybe in a tshirt or hat box. Something like that.

[@garywilser7802]

Now that’s a fire belching 283 ! Maybe some bolt on caps on those headers , then run a pipe out the bottom through the mufflers , then you can uncork them when you wanna make noise and fire 🔥

[@DDSpeedShop]

yeah thats probablt how itll go

[@stevegrim]

Cool. I think you need to check the exhaust manifold. I noticed (18.21) a bit of flame there.

[@DDSpeedShop]

yeah theres no gaskets

[@jimburgess9205]

Can’t wait for the first burnout!

[@bazscarlett8843]

Use relays From 12v to the on switch. And use fuses. A relay switch block of 4. On Amazon

[@robertwells6454]

Car is turning out good 👍.

[@toddmcquaid3851]

A big truck PTO cable works good for throttle cable.

$65-75 dollars for a 50 gallon beer keg then you have a party ,and a gas tank when you are through. It will never rust!

[@DDSpeedShop]

yeah i probably should just do that

[@robertgibson88]

@@DDSpeedShop Or you could look for a keg from a good source. That would be people who drink beer. They know who has the empty kegs. Didn't you just deal with someone like that? I also made a mistake on the size of the keg. I think the largest you can get is a 30 gal. keg.

Excellent work!! Too bad your having trouble with the gas tank!!

[@patrickharrand]

Lookin good Dan. Check out Mr. Gasket 5657 throttle cable kit. I bought one last year for my '37 Chevy Street Rod. It's cut to fit so it'll fit lots of applications. Safe and reliable like you want it. Thanks for sharing your Garage Time with us.

[@joewilliams7654]

Awesome vidja bud . Dan stop by a local harley shop or small motorcycle repair shop and pick up a Kreem kit for the tank it's an epoxy kit to seal the inside use them all the time on hd tanks to clean up and reseal the surface rust on old tanks so as not to clog up filters

[@DDSpeedShop]

Oh cool. Thanks man

[@garypeterson9083]

Love the build so far. You aren't going to use that externally regulated alternator are you? Can't wait to see her all put together, it's gonna be sweet.

[@wreckedrebuild2142]

I cant wait to see the T on a night time cruise! punch the gas and watch the headers glow and spit'n fire. The T is bad a** for sure! Great rod and work !

[@DDSpeedShop]

haha it will b roudy

[@Sludge73]

Love the flames. Looks like fun. Simplistic only what's needed wiring. Although don't forget the USB or 12V socket for charging stuff. Did ya get the Scuffys? Thanks for sharing!

[@victorhuiett4549]

I love it! Keep on going it's coming along great thanks for sharing.

[@kellydee1150]

good work man!! looks great love the home made exhaust. really cool.. and sounds heavy shes being a little light footed !!! i wanna see ya just give it to that old small block!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Chevyv8man1]

Hey Danny, Your throttle pedal setup looks like one from a 68 - 72 Nova. If you pickup a throttle cable for a 69 thru 72 Nova, I'm sure you can drill the right size hole in your firewall and hook it right up and it would work great. I'm not sure if they used the same setup after 72 but look at your Nova and if it's the same you'll see what I mean. Simple setup, and cheap to get, with no rigging. Good luck. Later

[@mryoung3399]

Get some fuel tank sealer like por 15 or similar. It works great and lasts forever

[@timhorn902]

Try to find an aluminum air tank. To use as a fuel tank. You don't have to worry about it rusting out.

[@DDSpeedShop]

yeah then ill b forced to upgeade my welder, not a bad excuse....

[@shartne]

Fire is cool. Maybe get some radiator support rods for cheap insurance your rad dont get bent or leak. I saw some on ebay for model T for 20 dollars and 19 shipping. Hot rods cost lot of money to build. But they are worth every penny.

[@DDSpeedShop]

yeah i gotta do somthin like that

haha yea

[@stephenandloriyoung5716]

You can easily make ends for the battery cables, saving time, a trip to a supplier and some, but not mucho dinero. Use appropriate size copper (steel would work, too, or aluminum, in a pinch) tubing. Pinch an end in a vise, flatten, upsize (hammer!) and trim it further to fit your mental image of what it should look like, drill a hole for the starter stud, cut to length and crimp. (Drill before cutting to length, and you'll have a handle for when the drill bit grabs it.) Voila, ta-da, and Bob's your Uncle. Am I being Captain Obvious? It was a revelation to me when an old (then) parts counter guy, younger than I am now, told me. You're the beneficiary of free transmission of generational know-how here! Awowa!

[@79beans347]
