1979 Dodge D300 Abandoned In Woods 20+ Years! Will It Run?!?

[@robertbennett9243]

Above all else, take care of your knees and yourself. We will watch whenever/however you post something. Your videos and knowledge are top notch. Take care Chad.

[@richardbates2367]

Chad sir you have plenty of good older content to keep us busy until you get the chance to be able to rest up and until the next video and i say that because i honestly end up watching some of your older videos anyways so you do you wish you the best though Chad sir..

[@mentalasylum3969]

Watching your videos is like hanging out with an old friend

[@chrissmith7655]

Hi, above all take care of yourself first. We all will be here for you whatever. Many thanks for all the entertainment and info you give us. From Nr Liverpool UK.

[@scottwright388]

The look that hawk was giving you once he got his senses was pretty cool. I do believe he understood and appreciated what you did for him.

[@terrystines2536]

You don't worry about the video's we will all be here when you get better, you take care of yourself !!!!!

[@scottmagby]

Hey Mr Chad. I drove a lumber truck back about 25 years ago and i took some lumber to a lot that was filled with seed ticks. I picked ticks off for about 3 hours. I got Lime Decease from that little load. to this day I still get real achy and very tired for no reason, it last a few days and then kinda goes away for a few months and then comes back. I do believe once you have it you have it for the rest of your life . I know what you are going through, just take a rest every time you need one . Enjoyed seeing little miss Daisy! Enjoyed the video!!

[@bvalt1]

Ive 'had 3 surgeries on my knees, still have some pain in both on occassion, especially when it is humd out. Have to wear braces when they get that way. I'm 57 and like you still working in the trades. Get yourself right, we will always be ready to watch whatever you put out. Your humor and determination in the face of adversity are an inspiration to us all. Take care of yourself!!

[@kbschulze]

Honestly, I did not believe that 360 would ever run! Wow you gave that motor a new lease on life. You the man!

[@N8vmama605]

Hey Chad, hope you're feeling better! I'd just like to say, you're a great human being. There's an awful lot of people in this world, but true human beings are in short supply. Thanks for helping that hawk. They're good medicine and I hope he brings you some good luck for your kindness. 😊

[@LarryCruson-wf8pu]

Another amazing will it run ,we loved it! That looked like a sparrow hawk that you saved great video Chad we are waiting for the next one to see you drive it home!!!!

[@timcook7949]

I'm so sorry you're having health issues. Praying for better health. Thanks for the video.

[@carolroberts7119]

Take care of yourself Chad. We are happy with what content you can give us. I for one will stick with you even if you cant post.

[@RichardKimble7608163]

Impressive that you stop to take care of the world like you did with the hawk. We need more like you.

[@GeekGinger]

Sorry you’re feeling bad, Chad, but we appreciate you pushing through as much as you can. I have a bad knee too and I know how hard it is to do anything when it’s hurting.

[@Joesmusclecargarage]

@4:45 You can also look at the dampener. All 360s are externally balanced and have a counterweight. The only other small block to be externally balanced is the 1973 340. The 273, 318, and 68-72 340 is internally balanced and will have a smooth dampener with no counterweight.

[@jimrobin98]

The old knees are a part of ThisNThat Garage! If people don't understand, the hell with them! Your channel is awesome and very entertaining! I like the variety of what you produce and can understand the knee problem, as I have back troubles! It sometimes limits what Ican and can't do! I understand completely! Keep up the good work!

[@badger_valley_customs]

I got Lymes disease in 2007, I was treated over and over for it. Antibiotics would make it go away for a few months and come back. In 2020 antibiotics quit working. Turns out that Doxycycline is also an anti inflammatory. I had developed Rheumatoid arthritis and Doxycycline was putting it into remission temporarily until my rheumatoid arthritis got too bad for it to work. I suggest getting tested for Rheumatoid arthritis, the sooner you can get diagnosed the less permanent joint damage it will cause. I let mine go so long without being diagnosed that I just had to have a finger amputated from it. Hope you get better soon.

[@The-Deadbolt-Deputy]

I enjoyed this. I personally like just seeing what you been up to. Take care and hang in there and im here to watch whatever you are putting out. I’ve learned a lot from you , especially in troubleshooting. Thanks Chad.

[@byrdsdoityourselfgarage7330]

Thank you for being so helpful and supportive to the little animals, Chad. Even the least of God’s creatures, are important enough to deserve love, and compassion ❤

[@dougrembowski5003]

I am an avid follower of your channel. I look forward to each new video. I love that you keep them to an hour or less. Some of the channels I watch put out videos 2 plus hours long! To me that is a big commitment. If you aren't healthy, then you need to take care of yourself. If you can only do a 30 min or so video, I'll still watch it. Take care of yourself and we will be here supporting your channel.

[@philiphereford5657]

Your channel is so real life. I can see me and my brothers doing the same stuff that you do. Great channel.

[@rm25088]

You are the only channel I have ever seen hone and do machining on their own engines. Great stuff.

[@hammerman8919]

Augh-Yeh 👨🏻‍🔧🧰🔧🔨⚙ Always a fun time seeing you in the bush doing a "Will it Run". I'd tell you how to fix your knees and your health but you're going to have to ask me. It's a shame you're not doing so well 😕. Thanks for another great video Chad 👍🏽 Augh-yeh ❗

[@daler.grindstaff6043]

Well, I guess the motor was nut-locked. Great job, as always!

[@frankcook-j8f]

Love your rescues! Got to stay healthy, those knees are a problem I've dealt with myself. Take care of yourself.

[@Paleoman52]

Sorry to hear that your knee pain is bad, I also have that situation and it really has slowed me down. I don't plan on surgery at this time but I manage to get along despite the intense pain. I admire what you did to save that hawk, you could see it in his eyes that he appreciated it. Love your videos and when I see one posted by you it goes to the top of my viewing list. Good luck on this and future projects, I'll be watching for your next video!

[@BrianLadwig]

Hey Chad I'm sorry to hear about your health I really hope you can get some help from the doctor for it being in pain sucks. I'm a diesel mechanic so I understand the knees and back,feet pain. I've watched every one of your videos and enjoyed every one of them. You take care of yourself buddy that's the number one priority.

[@randomthings3334]

I hear you with the joint pain, I've had back problem for years. do what you can we will always support you.

[@JohnRolin]

Awesome ... Hope you get to feeling better I feel ya on the knee pain it really sucks brother.

[@jasonkortink4785]

I worked on cars my whole life so understand your pain .it's just what comes from all the heavy lifting etc but I appreciate what you do my friend good taste in cars 😢🎉

[@PRAISETHESAVIOR]

Great video Chad, I look forward to seeing your videos every week. Praying for healing and pain relief for your knees and body and abundant blessings all in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen!

[@dominickpeterpaul8340]

Chad nice work getting the old Dodge running , it' sounds pretty good, im so sorry to hear about you knees, hope the MRI will figure what's the issue, I'll say a few Payers for you , and hope for the Best, I always appreciate watching and Learning all of your skills, your the Best in my Book Chad, please 🙏 take care of your Self, your friend DOM.

[@wilkersonsmowershop8379]

Hello miss daisy. Great save with the hawk. hope you get to feeling better brother 🙏.

[@trevorholt4376]

You got to take care of your knees and your back. I'm 35 and I have that issue and the more you try to push the harder it gets. My wife watches me with my sciatica some days just shakes her head. Do what you got to do. I will keep watching and I'm hoping that Dodge comes out of that brush even though I'm a Ford person. Just do what you got to do. Well. Keep watching and we'll keep praying for you. Get better buddy

[@7477corvettes]

Amazing how smooth that runs even with all that junk in the valves and cylinders. 😊

[@Suirtimid]

These dodges never fail to impress me the last one you did started right up

[@leegoldeneagle9003]

Very nice looking Dodge truck love the grill I did not know that they had dull Head lights I like it would look very nice on my Old truck very nice work on it sounds good 👍👍👍👍👍

[@kurtschreiber908]

Bluuuurrrraaaaa Chad, thanks for the smiles, the good times and the realness of life you share with us. Keep on truckin my friend. God bless you

[@sharoncauthon6446]

Take care of yourself. Shorter is ok. Thank you for taking care of that hawk.

[@LindaDyer-b9u]

Great show. So sorry you have been sick and your knees are hurting you. My left knee needs to be replaced, it’s hurts so bad but I’m not ready yet. Take care my friend. We will watch whatever you can get out to us .

[@braddokken9191]

Take care of yourself Chad! I'll watch whatever and whenever you can post. Will pray for you.

[@natedillard7353]

I was almost thinking you weren’t gonna get it going on this video until the end .. Praying for your joints and well being bud . Hang in there ! ….

[@gabrielv.4358]

16:32 A Cute "Lagartixa" . 17:52 That is so neat! I really like the "Carburatory Device" name, its fancy haha, along with the "Mucho Betero" haha. You got a very cool truck there. Nice to see it has a very decent engine on it. As far as I Know Taiwan is a little better than China. Good idea to pump oil before starting the engine. So nice of you to help the ol'fellar eagle! I wish you the best for your health! Your videos are very cool and entertaining. But if you have to stop the channel for a while for taking care of yourself, please don't hesitate. We will understand. Afterall, health first. Best of wishes and God bless!

[@carlcarlamos9055]

I had a ‘73 Dodge pu bought new that had a 360 and it came with a 2 barrel carb. It was a Camper 9000. Take care and thanks for the video.

[@fab4nut777]

We'll watch however much you can post. I'm praying for those precious knees of yours. The Dr., I pray will fix you right up, Chad. 🙏❤️

[@bobbykeyz1263]

I just think it's unbelievable how you can get these relics to run again. You are the man for the job. I totally understand your agony with your knees. I'm going through the same thing with both my knees. It started with one a couple of years ago, and now it's both. I feel for you, brother.

[@kuldem3292]

Take care of yourself man. We will follow and watch your videos. Greetings from France. 👍🏻💪🏻

[@markspence759]

You don't worry about you medical issues, take care of what you need to . I have watched your videos and relate to everything you do. We will wait for you.

[@leighfleming2075]

I can’t wait to see you working on that bolens, I own two and my late brother owned like 6 . Please do something with it , they are great tractors. I love all the videos you do

[@danielstrachan8988]

I understand Chad, at 65 with several health issues I can relate so just do the best you can and we’ll enjoy whatever you can do. More importantly just take care of yourself first.🙂🙂👍👍

[@DAPwny]

I can't believe that started so easy. Nice job Chad.

[@fredschneider4036]

Knees and Lymes got a issue with both myself, I’ll watch no matter what take care of yourself sir and god bless

[@johnhills1931]

I can’t believe you got that running, but I’m sitting here watching it. I love your videos.😊

[@keysangler247]

We ain’t going nowhere, I think I speak for everyone and we consider you a friend, a good neighbor. We all hope you feel better. Take care of yourself!

[@AnthonyRBlacker]

Honestly, Chad, I personally think it's just good practice to take care of the top end of an old engine that's got a stuck spot who's been sitting for a long time anyway. It's fair to say, removing some crumbs and nuts and all, taking the valve covers off and being SURE everything is A 0 K, it just makes good sense. Then you know you didn't go snapping off any valve stems or bending one, you know if there's a TON of rust of just needs a little oil up top to keep her happy.. You do things the way I and everyone I know was taught to do them (or just figured out themself anyway!) This is why I keep coming back to watch every week! I tell EVEYONE I talk to about your channel.. I sure wish you'd get to 100k here sooner than later!

[@josephhead2748]

You do and say what you want. I know of knee pain. Keep these awesome videos coming. Love and appreciation from Newfoundland Canada.

[@tarbogas66]

I know what pane is and I do feel for you Chad ! So don't worry about the people that don't understand, you have the right to talk about it to us ! I'll always listen and care about it. Like what you do and thanks for carrying for the animals, it's not the first time that I see what you do for them, you've got a big heart ! Godspeed, greetings from Switzerland

[@roblenzz7966]

I'm literally laid up on the couch at this very moment with gout in my knee. Debilitating! Knocks me down for a week! Take care, man and thanks for the video! And watch that alternator, saw some sparks when she fired up.

[@LuminousBlueVariable]

Absolutely EXCELLENT video!! Thank you for sharing it. I thoroughly enjoy your content!! If you can only do half hour videos that's perfectly fine by all of us. Your health comes first and I would mich rather watch a 15 minute video, knowing that you're taking good care of your knees.

[@kaystevens57]

Praying for you, Detox might help, look into getting an iceman cold therapy machine, btw been laid up 4 months and your channel is s God send so thank you from bottom of my heart, u hang in there, God bless,

[@MidwestCowboys4life]

[@jerrywentland4661]

Love the videos sending prayers of healing and comfort. My grea use to call them dang dodges

[@AnthonyRBlacker]

Prayers for your health Chad, the knees.. I sure hope the doctors can figure something out for you, prayers that Lyme's disease will go dormant for a long long time and stop bothering the rest of all your joints too. Your health is more important than us getting a full hour of you doing what you do. You have a pretty decent following now Chad, we aren't going anywhere. I read the comments too! (well, I don't read the ID 10 T ones.. but still

[@frankpetrone2966]

Chad my prayers are with you, I’m 73 and have both bad knees also so I can feel your Delma! But great job on getting the old Dodge going. Looking forward to see you drive it out in future videos.

[@scottp7600]

[@dwaynesprospectingadventur4994]

I'll be here waiting and watching until you make another video brother. Take care of yourself first and foremost.

[@ney4na449]

You have a way with broke stuff, engines and animals. Good on you. I was at work one day and heard something hit a window. Upon investigation it was a finch. As Coach John Madden would say, "He got his bell rung." The little guy laid there for about 30 minutes and finally flew away. Sorry the knees hurt so much but see what the doctor says about acupuncture. They have been doing it for over 3000 years and must know something. Very well done on the old Dodge.

[@MikeyMikeM21]

First off get well and hope everything goes well with your knees. This is your channel do things the way you want to do. I think you do a great job. I live in Tx and I need a 302 rebuilt and find anyone to do it without charging a arm and a lung..... 👍👍👍

[@kirk467]

Good job Chad, you sure went through a lot to get this one fired up! Thanks for sharing and I’ll be sending prayers for your health my friend, take care of those knees brother! If they are swelled up,put some ice packs on them 2-3 times a day! I’ve had both of my knees fully replaced and it took me a couple years before they quit hurting! Now they don’t hurt but with the implants I do feel the pressure on them while I’m standing on them! Good luck my friend! Go get you some rest! See you next time and I’m glad the hawk got better and flew off! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼✌🏻✌🏻💯💯💯
