1971 F100 FE 360 (Dumas) ABANDONED 39 YEARS!! | PART 2: WILL IT DRIVE???

[@theknifeconnection9571]

Please don’t change brother. Your videos and one other guys videos are by far my fav. No one else even comes close. You’re extremely brilliant. Yet just a normal fella like most of us. It’s great watching you. When I want to learn something and laugh at the same time. I come to you. I’ve seen every video of yours. And every time I open KZbin. I look to see if you came out with something new before I watch anything else. If that tells ya anything

[@chrisoneill2037Scotland]

Yes best channel about car's on the tube for sure

[@jangles1839]

I concur!

[@ukcarlover517]

Watch sleeperdude he's quite good

[@DanDan-yy8sf]

I'm extremely happy with the way Chad edits and leave the content in his capable hands. I think this is part of the attraction and interest we have in his channel.. Thanks Chad but we like it just the way you serve it up.

[@bemotivated8443]

Jennimgmotorsport is great too

[@normansylvester8098]

Chad... the sense of pride you must have had when that ole girl Crawled out of that hole after 39 years!!! Hard work does pay off

[@bobbymaeger3478]

Don’t call yourself stupid. I’ve been an automotive mechanic for forty years. Never been afraid of trying anything. I’ve amazed myself by things I’ve doubted would work

[@CaptainJakeG36]

I think the amount of work you show is perfect. I wouldn't change things to show any less. For me, these 1 to 1.5 hour vids are perfect. Also I understand going through hours of footage to get to a final product and appreciate the work you put in.

[@poohssmartbrother1146]

I agree. You have found the perfect balance of work to length for these types of videos. Especially love how much mannerisms you show in the process

[@mike-bj4dk]

i agree. and i like to add i have huge respect for this guy most people wouldnt have put that much time into that old truck to make it move he never gave up.

[@ThisNThatGarage]

2-3 hours of editing every single night. It's worth it tho!

[@freealien420]

I know nothing about mechanic stuff, but I'm totally addicted to watching you bring these old beasts back to life. Keep up the good work brother.

[@ShilohShepherd]

I enjoy seeing as much work as you wish to show. To me, the longer videos are great. One of my favorite channels.

[@66skate]

Agreed, you don't learn anything just watching before and after. There are lots of neat tricks to get the job done I'd never think of.

[@2018NukNuk]

Agree!

[@plead5th187]

The 5th time now ....@1:14:10 @im dead laugh 😂🤣😂🤣😂 nnnn

[@frankzicari784]

I agree 100%.

[@davisigurarson2092]

The difference between this channel and most others like it is astounding. Some say that a car has been sitting for decades and when they open the hood the engine has a new carburoster or a fuel pump. They fiddle with it for a few minutes and it fires up and idles no problem. Sir Chad with your bad knees admitting mistakes and taking days or weeks to get a car to drive home is refreshing honesty.

[@raptormills]

I agree

[@JamesCouch777]

I have to admire your persistence. A lot of people don't have the patience to do what you do, I guess that's why the truck was abandoned.

[@journeytotheend13]

I think you do a great job showing what we want to see; most of the work and struggle, but not necessarily every little thing. Love the long videos. Keep being you and do what you do!

[@danielgay4924]

I will agree with many of the other commenters in that I like seeing some of the work. The combination you use of showing work and then other times(when things get serious) you cut away seems to be a good enjoyable blend. Keep it up! Love them old Fords, they're what I grew up with.

[@damienwatkins14]

I like seeing the work you do cause there are some of us that like the knowledge of how things work.and you take us with you to fix these things....i really wanna say thank you for your videos...

[@jamesharris9717]

I really like the way you avoid foul language when working on the projects . It shows maturity and good character that unfortunately is extremely rare now.

[@1SmittysGarage]

There's just something satisfying about bringing something back to life once left to be forgotten. Heck of a job there! Blessings and respect to the grind and hustle!

[@craigrichardson7087]

I think you have the balance of what you show and what you dont pretty close. Your perspective on getting things going is always intetesting and often enlightening. Cheers..

[@Maximus65]

I think that the way you do things right now are perfect, you show a fair amount of your work without it being too tedious. I also like the 60-90 min videos you’ve been doing, the work along with the humor is a perfect combination 👍

[@wayneneale869]

I enjoy your approach. I note that when you have a repetitive operation that you skip, and that is ok. I appreciate the thought process. I wouldn't change! Top 2 of whom I watch!

[@robertlacob8831]

The common everyday driver (non mechanic) needs to see what us technicians/mechanics go through when doing repairs as every job is rarely a 1 hour job! Great work, keep them videos coming.

[@zalee100]

Great mechanics to make new life old car ive ever seen..keep it up good work dude...OLD IS GOLD damn!!

[@bobbylong9001]

I like to see the amount of work you’ve been showing in your videos so far. Seems perfect as far as that and the drives after the revivals

[@DondiTrent]

Really appreciate your videos people are so easy and giving up on things these days glad to see your determination and efforts to get these vehicles back on the road. And what ever you give us is just what we will gladly accept!

[@paulbales3513]

Please show most of the work it is crazy helpful to folks learning how to do it for them selves. Showing the mistakes/ accidents helps everyone understand sometimes things don't go well or easy!!!! Some cars fight you every step of the way... You could time laps some stuff so as to speed through certain things but you do a fantastic job Sir! Your videos are amazing.

[@Country-metal]

I absolutely love this old rig. I also love your attitude and personality. Just real, no Hollywood here! Keep on being you . Respect from the UK 🇬🇧

[@LuBeLiLeG]

You are doing mighty fine job with your work and project editing. I have watched all of your videos so far and look forward to every next one. When your videos are over and done, I always wish there would be more. I can't wait until the next week's video release. The more footage, the better for me. Keep up the great work, I love to watch. Thank you.

[@plead5th187]

@1:13:25 pop pop pop them nutzzzzz lmao ..... 😂

[@mftidwell]

I love your personality and commentary. If you record it, I'll watch it !

[@TerryLawrence001]

I enjoy seeing how people take on challenges and solve problems. I like that you show as much as you can. The character that you add to the adventure is what makes your content so entertaining. Ilove longer videos, about an hour at a time. I am ok with multipart videos if there is too much to fit in an hour

[@jayceec3539]

Our family really enjoys the work being shown ,it doesn't matter if it's 4 hours or 6 . As long you don't fast foward everthing ,like it's a cassette tape. Alot of folks thinks their footage that fast is cool. It only makes people watching dizzy+ pukin.. We enjoy your videos + will watch it thru, like we have the previous videos. My ford truck has 3 names,it is a 1986 f-150,xlt,lariet.

[@aaronhickox6839]

Personally I prefer longer videos and seeing the work, or at least as much as you're willing to show. I appreciate what you do. God bless and take care bud.

[@MaliciousSRT]

Another channel just found a Dodge like that and it only had 22,000 original miles, buried in the bush, trees growing through it, but it cleaned up like new and had no rust!

[@tylerrobinette8671]

Has to be my favorite mechanic on you tube

[@Brock_Landers]

To be honest, I like to see some of the work on other parts of the cars, but I like to see the majority of the work under the hood. If you don't know how to change or work on brakes, then you probably shouldn't be watching channels like this, that's what Scotty Kilmer is for. I like seeing the majority of what it takes to get the things running. I have been an ASE certified mechanic for over 20 years now, so I know what it takes, but it's fun for me to watch people do it on older cars and watch them come back to life. Just like the fact that I am a truck driver who deals with people doing dumb stuff and every day I come home and watch people do dumb stuff on dashcam footage. I like seeing other people's methods, and how they deal with certain situations. The "Will It Run" videos are always fun in my opinion.

[@Hbzprojects]

I like how your videos have been going, I think it's usually just enough, I don't feel like I'm just watching you struggle for 20 minutes, but It also doesn't seem like a quick and easy run through everytime.

[@steveleverett300]

Don’t change a thing. I think people need to see how much work goes into working on these old cars and trucks. Thanks for such great videos ❤

[@scrapyardwarriorvlogging]

Brilliant video man, watching the old rig drive out of its 38 year grave was so heartwarming. Glad it’s living to see another day. Your videos are a pleasure to watch!

[@MAC-ws8fz]

Absolutely! Show the work! I'm 81 and still want to learn!

[@caseybeckner2625]

Don't change a thing your videos are exactly 💯% what I want to see keep doing you

[@johnoldonekanole602]

I enjoy watching a true mechanic come up with innovative ways to solve complicated problems . So show as much work as you desire to, and I will gladly watch it. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure .(I find myself flinching every time you slip been there done that )

[@twinkie27271]

Now we just need a true mechanic!😅

[@paulevers2100]

Show the work. Your struggle and creative solutions to your problems are what make your videos good.

[@clydepodvin5026]

Sir , stay the same. Where else can you see a comedy show, a landscaping program, and a Auto show all at the same time. Your videos are golden 👍👍👍

[@rypkepaulusma]

I think the current way of posting is just fine. You found a great mix of explaining and filming in some detail, fastforwarding on some subjects and throwing in comic scenes and a slice of humor. Also you're not afraid of sharing some mistakes with us, so we can relate 🙂So all in all I would suggest: don't change a thing and please keep going!!!

[@alexbetteridge8200]

Can’t get enough of you….your skills, your laughter and your treacle accent…..show it all…thank you 👍🇬🇧

[@1HotRob]

Your editing is spot on! You just keep doing what you like because we like it too! Expect maybe 6 cylinder vehicles 😊

[@jayceec3539]

Our family likes seeing the work being done. Honest folks will film it. Your awesome sir!!

[@jasonspringett5367]

Definitely dont change, I think you do an amazing job on what you show and how you work ur videos, I enjoy watching what you do and how you amazingly get these old rigs going.. so keep on the way your going, great job editing ur videos in my opinion..

[@kevinkelly208]

I think the balance you have between the work you show us and the bits you cut out is perfect, at no point does it get monotonous. Keep up the good work my man!

[@glentucker4250]

I have to agree. I like seeing the work and what it takes to get it done. Don’t mind a longer video either. Thank you for doing what you do.

[@abrdds]

Sir, I like what you do and love the way you do it. Truly no bs with you , just know how. I would love to dig up those trees for bonsai and let you work your magic on my 73 Nova SS Hatch bought brand new from the dealer.Dont change anything you do or edit in your videos ✊🏾👍🏾❤️

[@pfcoaks]

I thoroughly enjoy seeing all the work that is done. Like others I too enjoy watching the longer videos. Really like the channel on my top 3 list that i check for constantly.

[@jcondon1]

I am with you. A lot of people talk about what they did and never show it. The beauty of KZbin is you can always skip ahead if you don't want to see the detail on how to do it. Longer is better. Love your videos.

[@ralphthompson6791]

Love your show and i love watching you bring back the broken and forgotten lost to time , not to mention very entertaining keep doing what your doing and before you know it you'll have 100,000 subscribers !

[@bonitapowell6701]

Brings back recent old memories...I went through the same ordeal... minis driving the 71 f-350 flatbed home... spent $800.00 to get it towed 300 miles The old truck running ( still a work in progress). I enjoy watching the vedio

[@aldoovercomer5473]

I like to see some of the work. Love watching these abandoned vehicles being rescued!

[@stevenlatham4397]

Your videos are excellent, I don’t see anything that needs improvement or to be changed. I also respect the level of honesty that you incorporate. You genuinely produce the most realistic content regarding the battle that entails when rescuing these classic beauties.

[@shaunpatchett2510]

Keep showing as much of the work as possible, the longer the videos are the better. Keep up the great work.

[@horstszibulski19]

Please don't change your style of videos! For sure we want to see how you work and how it's done in your way. I agree with you, some channels are explaining what thea are gonna do, then cut and it's done, that's totally annoying. You got the right balance between footage your work and repetetive things that you already shown before! Really enjoying your vids, they are quite unique and nice to watch, thanks a lot! 😂👍👍👍

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Preshate that. 👍

[@golfpack7065]

Great content my man! Keep it simple and genuine. That's why we watch your videos.

[@pierreballou5438]

It's refreshing to watch you work reminds me of when I was a teenager and if truck broke down I had to fix it best I could with what I had or could make or find. Don't change your format please.

[@daniellebrindisi6378]

Love seeing as much work as possible. You make great videos!

You Have in my opinion a really good mix of showing and describing the work currently good Sir.

[@doctorhugocat]

[@donparker8246]

Don't change a thing Chad. I love your content just the way it is. I understand not wanting to record some of the more tedious things. But your content shows enough work to see what you're doing, and not be bogged down in details. And, it shows the process of what the work they needs to be done. Great just the way it is my friend👍😁

[@thomasputnam4491]

I can't believe you get them old truck back to life and drive them out of there graves.i love it you don't let nothing stop you.keep up the good work..

Hey Chad another rescue mission completed. You have a fair degree of patience to work on these stubborn old vehicles, well done and keep them coming. Your surrounding locality and countryside looks impressive.

[@reedb9039]

That would so fun to go around bringing these old vehicles back to life. You have mad talent my man.

Need to show more. It's great what you do. Reminds me of my younger days . Those old ford's were tough once you got them going. My first truck was a 1967 F250. Had the old 352 engine in it. Keep the videos coming.

[@JP454757]

I like this KZbin channel because of all the work you show. The longer the video the better If the video is 2 hours or so. No problem I don't watch regular TV your channel is my TV. Pl ease keep doing the Awesome job that your doing. I'm watch all day every day. Thanks JP.

[@Thegoobmancometh]

Just reading through the comments and I see that we all overwhelmingly agree that we like to see the long form and extensive videos! I like that so many other people can also appreciate a normal, witty and sometimes silly guy and enjoy it for what it is. I just want to sit back and have a laugh and maybe learn something I didn't know before! It really made me happy to see all the positivity in the comments. I sat and thought about it and this is without a doubt my new no.1 KZbin channel! Keep it up!

[@ThisNThatGarage]

Seems people like what I'm doing so I reckon I'll keep doing it!

[@Thegoobmancometh]

Glad to hear it! Seems like a lot of the other channels I used to enjoy watching have changed now that they've got bigger. I can understand to a point! S*** changes when you're in the public eye. But I don't understand why the content is changing. I watch Automotive channels because I am a mechanic myself and I enjoy it. The actual mechanical stuff! With some good color commentary mixed in!

[@kevinwhipple8041]

Some time I like some of the times,and sometimes I like to see all what you do,I like to watch you working on things,and get these things running, you keep on what you do and my prayers are going to you.

[@KoolFJ40]

I agree with everyone else! Post the work as that is half the fun! I inherited my grand dads old 1972 F100 Ranger XLT with the same FE 360 engine in it. Mine had the C6 auto tranny in it. The truck was doing the EXACT same thing with appearing to be missing terribly. It turned out to be a badly worn distributor shaft allowing points chatter. Replacing that fixed all of the ignition issues. The other issue you appear to be having may be the fuel pump. My pump, though it worked when at low RPM, once you got on it hard it was sucking air in from somewhere. I replaced the pump and ALL the rubber and metal fuel lines and enjoyed many years driving it. Finally gave it to my younger brother who ended up totaling it. Keep the videos coming!

[@laserbeam002]

I like to see as much of the work as you can show. I understand you have limitations so whatever is good for you. Thank you for posting.

[@jdub9554]

I think your videos are spot-on regarding the detail of the mechanical work you show us. Like you, I'm not a fan of videos where I'm told what was done rather than shown. If you show me, I can learn things!

You bring the joy I had back. I like every single minute. Wish they could be longer but I understand u can't make them really long. Thank U for letting me relive my mechanicing day.

I really enjoy watching the work be done. Most videos don't have the work. They tell you that they are going to do something an then it cuts to the next part where it's already done. So I like your videos because you do the work
