PROJECT X gets a Gas Gauge along with oil and temp

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thanks for watching! Check out my merchandise! I really appreciate your support! luckys-stuff.myshopify.com/collections/all

[@yannisgouras4482]

Glad to see that they put a real engine back in there when they made that into an Ev that was a dark time for that car. I'm all for electric vehicles as long as they're fun to drive but let's leave the classics alone

[@JB-xp8xl]

A blast from the past, I remember reading about the first build of "Project X" when I was a kid and have followed along most all the story's and videos up till now. Damn now I feel old.

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thanks for watching

[@br549200]

Just think, that car will still be evolving long after we’re gone.

[@ZMANPERF]

Project X....What else can you say...A piece of Hot Rodding history.

🏁🏁🏁🏁🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@Nitrohog2006]

Thank you for giving this car a respectable powerplant again!

[@luckysgarageshow]

Any time!

[@rockercover]

The motorized wind wing control is some good thinking. (Keeping it original in appearance).

[@TheBrokenLife]

It's not everyday that you get to see one of the biggest wrongs in automotive history get set right. 👍

[@newking70]

It was an abomination.

[@vanstechcorral]

It's a Project - X means Unknown!

[@PeteRicho]

A car that has had more driveline combinations than you could poke a stick at, & everyone loses their minds like the electric drivetrain was going to stay in it forever! It was like every other combo that’s been in it, to evaluate, compare & then move on to the next !

[@robertunderwood6011]

well said

[@davebays4238]

I threw up in my mouth a little bit when I first saw the electric motor...

[@chief3378]

Project X has had so many renditions in it's life and the great part is it still looks stock

[@jnzkngs]

My Default Rant; What ticked me off the most about the conversions they did on Project X, a 79 blazer and probably others, was that they never intended to to offer it commercially. Neither did Ford when they stuffed a mach-e into an old truck. None of this is about the environment, it's about forcing people to go through cars like they do cell phones.

[@marklottero5345]

Just taking Project X for a little spin, must feel so awesome to cruise it!

[@GasserNorm]

Lucky, your doing us a big favor on returning the beloved Project X back to life. Thanks brother.

[@luckysgarageshow]

You bet!

Tri five and 59 and 60 had the best gauge clusters, My opinion!!

Project X is as old as I am, but in better shape. I remember this car from when I was in my teens. So glad to see the ev atrocity ripped out and returned to Big Block power! Must be great to be able to go cruising in it Lucky.

Project X is one step closer to absolution from that "motor" it had! Looking forward to watching you and Alex bring this car back from its electron-based purgatory! Also looking forward to some Power Tour footage/shenanigans! Thanks for the episode, Lucky; I'm surprised you found the time!😂 ✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦

[@luckysgarageshow]

Thank you!

I have a classic instruments cluster in my 66 chevelle

[@terminalpsychosis8022]

Fun project. Please paint it any other color besides yellow. ;-)

[@tonykemper8896]

How is it im so close to you but I never get to see any of this bad ass builds out cruising around! Maybe some day!

[@DestroyersGarage]

having the million dollar hotrod in the shop has to be an all-time moment. so glad that electric stuff is gone that was a travesty.

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

DestroyersGarage IMO they should fire whoever thought that X should a ev.

[@DestroyersGarage]

they got their headlines, and it's got an explosion engine back in it. all is forgiven.@@lilorbielilorbie2496

[@chevyfan82]

When they butchered project X into a EV that was it for me hot rod was officially dead. Thank you for saving project X and making it a real hot rod again hopefully they learned to keep that woke EV crap out of hot rods and got back to real roots. A Big 👍 to you Lucky.

[@dennisgallear409]

Sorted!

[@kentmckean6795]

Now that Project X is back on petrol, you should take it around to Tony Danza's place and see if he can blow the engine again... 😂 And since it's an automatic now, he may even be able to drive it! 👍

[@gregsmith9457]

👍👍👍

[@monkeyfoodgarden]

What no video of the test drive. Wanted to see if there was an tire smoke issue that needed to be addressed.

[@calebjvw]

Will project x be geting a roots blower again ontop of the new 632?

[@elarr8733]

Any chance of going Office Space printer scene on those gauges? Maybe hand the bat to Freiberger?

[@johnlee8231]

Looks like tach was still missing in that last shot?

[@chief3378]

That'd be funny if Pepsi called you

[@johnbarker5009]

Lucky, I'm very disappointed in you. There was a LOT of fan noise in the video. Surely you should be ready to die of heat exhaustion on behalf of people who watch free videos on YT! Nice work, nice to see Project X still going strong. They were working on this car when I was in diapers!

[@donaldnichols2434]

Project X is awesome, but Butternut

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

The gas gauge in my 1967 Mercury Cougar shows half a tank even when it's full. I should swap it out but that would mean some downtime. Sooo maybe someday I'll fix it. 6=8.

[@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus]

Could also be the sending unit.

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

@@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus Nope. The guy who I got the car from had already replaced that and had it checked before he put it in. In the meantime I'll just fill the tank before I go anywhere.

[@willbradley71]

When will the new season of hrg air

[@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus]

So they put all that effort, cash, and scientificals into the electric conversion, promised the moon, and talked a good game. Then they took it to the track, put down some truly lame times, broke a part or three, and that was the last we ever heard of it in golf cart form. Seems it didn't *quite* live up to expectations, and I imagine there was some company in-fighting as well. A great company learns from their mistakes, and this company ain't no beer manufacturer.

[@RealGenX]

This is the coolest car but gets wrecked every time GM gets their hands on it!

[@jwray9799]

Also, I think that gauge cluster is UGLY. The stock Chevy Dakota set was better

[@newking70]

The person who greenlighted that EV swap should have been drawn an quartered, I hate when Discovery took over all the McMullen Publishing and just killed all the titles.

[@arnulfob3454]

I agree the X was for ex-hot rod !!!

X means Unknown - anything is possible!

A shame - this was better electric.
