RUINING A PERFECT CLASSIC CAR! CUTTING UP THE FRAME FOR AIR BAGS & LS3!

I use side cutters on those cotter pins…. Not enough to cut into it but just enough to grip it, then pry it out…. Never had much luck with the needle noses

[@greggsvintageworkshop8974]

It's a VERY Nice 55! She's going to run and drop better than she looks, so that put's it off the charts! You are a very busy guy, feel better!

[@Jason1975ism]

My Grandpa owned a junkyard from the early fifties until his death in 2003. He crushed thousands of these because they were scrap metal. He crushed everything you love, after gutting the drivetrain and frame for foundry steel. Every classic car, truck, van, panel truck, tractor, and motorcycle ever built, he scrapped. He started by paying about ten dollars for a vehicle and ended up paying fifty at the end of his run. You do what you want, Casey!! At the end of the day they're disposable vehicles.

[@greenmachine5487]

Exactly, we can't keep them all. They wouldn't be rare if we could.

[@Jason1975ism]

@@greenmachine5487 definitely the truth. Old scrapyards are the reason that a square body is even desirable today. I remember when I would see a Chevy Blazer and not know if it was my uncle or or one of the other 17 blue and white blazers tooling around town.

Yea, Obama made sure there wasn’t many of these classics left in the barns and fields with his cash for clunkers program when he was president. Ultimate Blasphemy.

[@Robrt32]

It’s always wild to me that we use to put air shocks on and 2x4s cut up in the front springs to keep from dragging the ground and now the goal is make it drag. We truly living in backwards times. Dumb shit is now cool. I will stay odd, I like it that way

I used to get sniffles and sore throat from sisters kids when they were young, best thing to stop it is cold-ezze lozenges one or two when you’re around them and you won’t get sick. I stopped it for 8 yrs till they were in their late teens, then they weren’t virus incubators.

Casey I’m dying to see you do your thing with that Nomad/Wagon thing next to the 55. 👍

[@donlandenberg8126]

Whell you showed that suspension. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@bradt9244]

Wire cutters are the easiest way to pull cotter pins

[@jerrywilliams8733]

Don't even hassle with the cotter pin, just put a wrench on the nut for the ball joint and turn it, the cotter key will just shear off then you can get the piece out after its off with a metal pick. I never reuse them anyway.

[@TheCarnager]

When you pull a cotter pin, I think a shoestring would work good.

[@emersonb5764]

I cringe when people cut into old irreplaceable cars. And I’ll cringe when I cut into my 65 ford as well, to do the coilover front and rear ends. But at the end of the day if we’re making it more driveable, safer with more modern handling/braking, etc, and making it look good, it’s hard to say we’re ruining anything. It’s more of a shame when a car sits and rots away without being driven and enjoyed because the owner doesn’t want to ruin it. There will be a day when there are none left except in the collections of the filthy rich. But I think by then we’ll have much more dire problems.

[@shredstick00]

I have a 57 wagon im working on and been waivering on doing a 4 link and aces fuel injection so im leaning on your expertise hard in these videos lol

Get out your grinder, cut the looped end off, and just pull the bent end of the cotter pin?

[@Im.Richard]

Man, if you told me that car once upon a time resided in Louisville Kentucky in the late seventies or early 80s, I could swear it was my brother-in-law's. I was pretty young but he built one identical event and then sold it to build a house

[@jjdriver55]

HEY, Casey , You do realize you cut off the rear brackets that you could have used to replace those VERY HIDDIOUS REAR SHACKLES ON YOUR 1957. I just thought I would throw that out there . lol ---------------------------------------------------------------.

Is this 55 Chevrolet going to be for sale

[@cageliner]

No one WANTS a tri-five Chevy... unless it has A/C. power disc brakes and steering, an LS swap and bags LOL. Or a complete makeover into a fake race car. DD has certainly done all of that, eh? So far his '55 Nomad credit card buy is mostly stock. Even Fab Rats took a perfectly preserved '55, replaced the drive train & suspension, and added A/C. I'm too old (and too poor) to want a car that barely idles, gets 8 mpg or sucks up $20,000 in parts 🤑 Casey, at least you're building a mix of different cars and trucks, and fabricating most of that. I'll allow a modified but stock looking '55 😀

[@mightymikethebear]

DD Speed Shop does many tri 5s but your 55 is much nicer than anything I have seen on that channel recently.
