Oh I love that look of the Renegade.!!!!

[@user-A-A-RON]

I may have went with a matte clear instead of a high gloss. 🤔

[@kells77]

Agree that gloss looks real fake It’s just too much

[@johndeere8594]

I’m glad someone said it the gloss is to much.

[@westtoast74]

I don’t Think Dennis has ever had just an “ordinary” vehicle around him. Every one of them is “Extremely Rare” 😂😂.

[@zAngus]

Dennis “Unicorn” Collins

[@clintdavis9511]

"Ordinary" for Dennis is well optioned, unique color combination, rust free, fully documented one owner....I have only ever seen one like it holy grail car!

[@darrenwalsh230]

I wonder if it wouldn't look more natural with a matt finish clear coat over the patina paint?

[@darioz6058]

saludos desde argentina soy tu fans

[@acountryboycancookwarnack5290]

The 1st one with all the patina, would be better in satin..

[@DennisCollinsCarWorld]

We thought about that. The shop was a 50/50 split on satin vs gloss

[@kells77]

@@DennisCollinsCarWorld needed satin for sure It’s just too much that high gloss Makes it look fake patina

[@timosmond3625]

Hey Dennis, really like the first Jeep you looked at, just wondering if you would consider using a satin clear instead of gloss. It just looked abit shiny. Just a thought. Love the videos.

[@1982MCI]

I thought the same thing. I thought they usually did use a satin clear on most of em before so this one really jumped out at me with the gloss and to me it looks really unnatural with the gloss but there’s a bunch of other guys saying that they like it so maybe one of those things where it works for Some but surely not all. If I was going to put a gloss clear over an original paint survivor, I’d just go ahead and body work it as well and paint it back original color. The gloss clear to me just does not look right over patina but that may be what the customer wants tho also, who knows but it’s a great Jeep either way

[@FreedomRock44]

Dennis I am sick of the patina look but that Renegade Patina is Awesome!!!!!! Are those Levi seats?????

[@DennisCollinsCarWorld]

Yes they are Levis

[@FreedomRock44]

@@DennisCollinsCarWorld Thanks Dennis.....Sorry I heard you say that later in video was too lazy to go back and delete.....haha oh well. Awesome Jeeps Dennis! Love your content .....You are hitting Homers!!!! Mustang hertz...GTO's, Jeeps. So good.

[@jeffcook8896]

Love the videos you are so knowledgeable when it comes to the Jeeps I enjoy learning something new about them in every video would love to meet you someday

[@mattstaxx8564]

I would of put matte clear on that 1st Cj

[@IR-nq4qv]

Thanks Dennis, you're a wealth of Jeep history, a 401 in a Cherokee, I learned something new today

[@markbennett6658]

I’m from the UK and had to work out 401 cubic inches is around 6.6 litres. That’s big. I used to drive a friend’s (very rare over here) 1980 (I think) Cherokee Chief that was around 5.9 litres (would that be about 355 or 360?). It wasn’t that fast but it was grunty and full of character!

[@IR-nq4qv]

@@markbennett6658 5.9 is a 360.155 HP and 255 ft pd tq hardly a killer engine. I don't think any of them were all that fast, comparable to other vehicles, they were more famous for their four wheel drive capability back in the day. With the right tires they were exceptionally good in deep snow.

[@markbennett6658]

@@IR-nq4qv yes 155 HP is pretty pitiful and it needs all the torque with that much mass to haul. I’ve got a 2006 WK HEMI which is a 5.7 and around 330 HP. That’s brisk if you stand on it but not earth shattering. Most never see snow and rarely rough terrain here. They’re referred to as ‘Chelsea Tractors’!😂

[@stevequinones6034]

I always learn something new each time I watch the videos. Thanks!

[@johnhnetkovsky8917]

Difference between C.B. Jeep and Gas Monkey Garage,real work being done by real techs every day Nothing going on at GMG since the cameras stopped,just Richard's mancave haha

[@uncleheide]

Great Jeeps, but have to admit I’m not a fan of clear coated patina, especially that ‘79 Renegade. I know I’m in the minority in this regard....

[@matthewmcdougall1645]

I really enjoy the show I'm a Wj owner I've owned 3 from 2000 to my rocky mountain edition 2004 . How can I get a t shirt . I ran a garage for 25 years and I still learn something every shoe I really appreciate this show hope it keeps going becouse I would miss it . You have a new fan from the great state of Maine so thank you for all your hard work to make these great shows.

[@karlhurn]

Love your knowledge and passion Dennis. Great videos, keep em coming 👍🙏👌

[@meandair]

Really wish Dennis & the guys had enough time to produce 30min to an hours worth of content every week. 10 to 20 mins is never enough.

[@YourMomSaidGetAJob]

The level of detail and quality is absolutely insane. You guys are the best to ever do it

[@scotth9881]

It's great to see some of those full size Jeeps.

[@johnnymula2305]

I love survivors but to gloss over patina is the dumbest look. Patina is natures wear on something. The protectant (clear) should be matte. Or at the very most, semi gloss. I’ve seen so many screw up this look going the gloss route.

[@JustSpeakingFacts_]

I much rather watch Denis on youtube than Richard. Dennis doesn't give off the piece of shit vibe. He seems more like he does this because he loves it too rather than putting money way above everything else like Richard.

[@patrickhoward9115]

I'm not a huge fan of the shine. IMO kinda takes away from the patina, but I'd totally want this protected with clear coat. Is there a satin finish clear coat?

[@LivingOnCash]

Cool stuff but I'm not a fan of gloss clear over patina. The whole point of leaving the patina is for the vehicle to look old. If you want shiny then just paint the thing. If you want to preserve the patina then do a satin or flat clear, not gloss.

[@FreedomRock44]

Dennis you find GEMS!!!!

[@ALLANROACH1]

I think when you clear coat you should use flat claer not shiny .

[@belowme4927]

IMHO YOU SHOULD HAVE USED MATTE CLEAR

[@acoetsee1]

Love your videos. Watch all of them here in South - Africa. Thank for keeping it real and honest. You guys are the best.

[@fuujinmugen]

Howzit from Joburg! Watching this 2024 and saw your comment. Do you have a Jeep too? Have a ‘75 CJ-5 and a ‘77 CJ-5 👍

[@docsaaab]

Love watching your Channel from Germany

[@toddbob55]

Who gives a Sh$% if it's original paint theres better quality paint these days

[@bigoldavey]

The high gloss clear looks eeey, the matt clear gives it more of a cool patina look.

[@emilycroot6306]

the patina jeep, soo nice. patina lost in the shine. satin would make it come to life. it looks too fake now. :(

[@boostedsaleen6146]

I think a mat clear would have been better the gloss looks out of place.

[@chrischris7816]

Dennis is there anything you don't know about a jeep and what do you think of the old jeep trucks with the quadrotrack my friends dad had one ( unstoppable )

[@jimhaines8370]

I thought when Chrysler closed dealers in the purge they took all the parts back so where are you getting all the NOS parts these days? Back from when dealers were Jeep only dealers ?

[@OtherTimDavis]

I have made your coffee walk videos a part of my Saturday morning routine while I’m enjoying drinking my coffee.

[@user-A-A-RON]

Never seen so many yuppies in Jeeps until the 4 door came out.

[@samspace81]

Cool stuff Dennis, always enjoyed your place back before the internet stuff

[@tjinnertube]

I’d of gone matte on the clear on that first example.

[@richardm1183]

Brilliant best bit of Friday, coffee walk!!

[@wilcothefox]

Thanks for the awesome tour Dennis, I'm almost 65 years old and loved Jeeps since I was a little kid!!!

[@jamesbucz]

Love the new Jeep walk’n talks!

[@clintdavis9511]

The "patina" clear coat is very interesting. I first saw rat rods in 2001 at cruise ins and car shows. I thought it was just a fad. I was very wrong. I was also the owner of a "rat rod" 64 Chevy C10 that I considered an unfinished show truck. An all original 2nd owner straight 6/230/3spd shop truck. I put a 350 SBC out of a 69 Camaro in it in 1989 with 66 Chevelle 327/ 300HP "double hump" 1.94 intake valve heads shaved .020 , Hedman headers, Cherry bomb header mufflers (it would shoot flames 3ft out the exhaust if you knew how to work the manual choke and downshifted) Edelbrock Torquer, 650 Holley, 2:80 Magnum Comp Cam with double roller timing chain and TRW valves with Michigan 77 bearings and a 67/427 Corvette distributor...with points! I tore out u-joints, shock mounts, clutches, alternator brackets, bent pushrods, broke a lifter on #1 cylinder ran it up to 7000rpm (2 bolt stock crank and rods) it held together for over a decade of nothing but abuse. It was still running when I stupidly sold it to buy a 87 Formula. Damn I miss that C10!!!

[@kenmello7252]

Hi Dennis, I like your content. I had a 1978 CJ7 Levi edition with a 304 and a T18 factory or so I was told.( I know it was a T18 don't know if it was factory) It was Black with gold strip kit and tan interior, Tilt wheel, Power steering and brakes with a hard top. I wish I still had it. I am a Ford guy but I loved that Jeep until I got my first Bronco. 1969 with a 351 (c). Now I have 5 Broncos and love them all. Keep up the great work and I love that you love what you do. A car guy is a car guy and it doesn't really matter what kind of car or truck it is in order to appreciate it and the passion some one has for it.. Nice work!

[@rikumoi3136]

Coffee Walk has become a tradition to start a great weekend - no matter what sh..../great week is now behind. Truly sets the weekend mood in. So glad to see all those projects - full lifts and the busy paint booth - again. It means we get our Walk again next Friday! Have a great weekend y'all!

[@RedWhiteAndBlueVideo]

Well Damn! Makes me feel better now that I have a survivor Jeep with original paint better than some of Dennis’ Jeeps. I have a 86 Dana 44 CJ with 63k. 2.5 AMC. Rust Free all original.

[@jameswoodham7890]

Man I love the amount of pride you and your team put into resurrecting these Jeep’s! It’s truly amazing to see. Keep up the FANTASTIC work y’all. Lol God bless you all!

[@richardcline1337]

The ONLY thing I might change of anything I have seen of Dennis' work would be that first patina'd Jeep. To me, and just my personal taste, would have the clear coat be a flat type, or maybe satin, rather than so shiny. It feels strange to actually find something "wrong" with anything his guys build.

[@JD_Spencer]

1st one Doesn't look like the proper roll bar for 79...its vertical and is on the fenders....I thought that ended in 78. Were they still using in 79?

[@bruceklassen8261]

One of the better episodes

[@timothyspain6699]

I'd like to survive that well. Working on my own survivor Jeep grand wagoneer. Its an 87 360 auto and I dig it. Thanks for your knowledge Dennis

[@tedebear108]

Good morning. This is Ted from Texas. Just subscribe to your Channel. I find it pretty cool that you go hunting around for old classic cars. I just acquired a Foxbody Mustang, 1984 GT350, in an unmolested condition. Runs and drives and is on the road. Hoping to bring it back to like new looking condition. Good show keep them coming.

[@timwirasnik5878]

Jeep just came out with the scrambler Truck this year, why not bring back the TRUE jeep truck, the J10?

[@brandaneakright6082]

Another great video Dennis you always have some really cool stuff in your shop the term survivor is used very lightly anymore with a lot of people honestly though a real survivor vehicle is all original paint and interior and drivetrain in good working order but some people think a survivor is a restored vehicle back to original anymore that cj wouldn’t technically be a true survivor since it was cleared over the original paint and some spots repainted I’m not nitpicking honestly it’s a cool jeep but some purists wouldn’t consider it a true survivor anymore but I love the Cherokee though that is crazy rare with that 401 in it loving the content keep up the good work

[@bren-xmotorsports55]

Don't order parts from these guys. Been waiting almost two months for something that was apparently in stock. Find out it was coming from another vendor and Collins Bros has no idea where it is. Customer service guy had a real nice " I don't care " attitude.

[@skwerlee]

That Cherokee is sick! I'd love to see more of that type of rig.

[@Mikey-xw7yo]

I know where a 56 willys jeep is. All original. Been in garage since 92. Ran then. In good shape and has hardtop. What would be a good price on one?

[@moneymarty1]

1st specimen, ding in the hood - left side above the lettering...don't want to be critical, and I suppose that it was left for original condition purposes. If not, a little spank or two from the underside would rectify it.

[@jagore65]

I have a 78 CJ5 Levi’s edition. Where can i find original seat cover material. Mine is the nutmeg color, denim?

[@gdb5448]

I've never been much of a "patina" guy but that silver CJ-7 looks pretty cool.

[@charleslee8505]

Okay I got a question how many guys out there are fan of patina and clear coat and I'm going to say I'm not on there because I think it's gets overdone like everything else it doesn't make it special when everybody and their brothers looking for a patina vehicle and clear coating it

[@DanEBoyd]

@1:55 I was like "uh-oh, it's smokin' under there" when you opened the hood, but then I seen it was the coffee steaming...

[@Tornado_Alley_Adventures]

I just took possession of my dad's 1985 Scrambler. I can't wait to start cleaning it up.

[@Allanindaarmy]

My neighbor has two scramblers setting in his yard. I have not seen either move in 18 months. I bet you could get those and “rescue” them.

[@robertbeirne9813]

Clear over patina should be a satin finish. That first Jeep was way too shiny. IMHO

[@kevinhall3443]

Really like seeing those CJ5’s being saved. Great job guys and gals.

[@mikesmith6396]

In high school I had a restored 73 CJ5 304 with the three speed it was burnt orange it was so much fun had to soft and hardtop for it just had steelies on it with desert dog tires on it 33s a lot of fun didn't beat it up then thrash on it or anything just it was a great driver and very very torque

[@Locomotor1]

Until the camera zoomed in on the side stickers I was wondering why that Cherokee has a bunch of Chevrolet logos on the side.

[@lancemiller9866]

Another great video

[@chrislogan4280]

Concentrate more on the Cherokees the full size Jeeps .....these small Jeeps suck they're going to go after the Cherokee name and ban it lol

[@Jay-ko4op]

Man that renegade would have been 100% perfect with a matte clear I’d love to have something like that

[@TommyRibs]

Regarding the Scrambler, do not put decals on it or repaint it. Out a matte clear coat on it. In that color blue, it will look awesome with less going on.

[@raymabry9240]

I need a 5.7 hemi shirt block if you just happen to have one laying around

[@cornishrider]

The Dakota Jeep looks stunning, would be great if the wheels we're patina'd also

[@16rightCTL]

Nice jeeps, to clearcoat a Patina car is a shame though..😭 Looks like foil wrap

[@davidwhitesell7591]

Dennis, Do you ever work on or do upgrades to Jeep Commanders..? Love your Channel.

[@dhaley8847]

I dont get it when people say totally original paint and the totally original paint sucks big time why perserve the really bad looking paint? to me there is no appeal to that and if you clearcoat that horrible looking paint why put gloss clear on it?why not matt clear?

[@hereticnemesis]

Would love to come for a coffee walk through the shop Dennis ,cheers

[@jakotako2249]

too short!! greetings from Poland

[@forthwithtx5852]

I appreciate the patina preservation with a clear sealer, but I would prefer flat or satin. The gloss kinda makes the patina no longer the focus.

[@J.F.K974]

Dennis, you are very honest unlike tricky Ricky no offence, you are the kind of person that someone can totally trust in any buy, sale or restoration, you are a good man

[@dougf94912]

Looking at the Cherokee, it seems strange to me that the white striping doesn't continue along the edges (under the windows) on the front doors...

[@Flashofblue]

why is original paint so important on old jeeps and classic car finds, especially when modern paint and painting techniques are far superior and its not as if these older cars have been put away and kept in ideal conditions

[@bsimpson6204]

The first jeep looks weird in that glossy clear coat, it would look more authentic with a matt finish

[@davidbyers7157]

I Love this Jeep how much do you want for it 35k miles is nothing

Shiny patina...don’t like it. I would clear mine matte or flat.
