RAT INFESTED: Reviving A Locked Up 1962 American Rambler | Will It Run After 50 Years? | Turnin Rust

[@Building-medusa]

I love your content but I would like to see some updates, like the old camper , the Deloren , the elvis car , just think it would be good to see some cars making it back to the road , even taken to a place that other people can take it to the next level

[@thomaswermager1819]

Again! Your persistence pays off. When that old engine barked off, and idled! And then, moved! I hope there’s more coming on this one! Awesome! Thank You for bringing this one back!

[@seandayma]

It's awesome seeing Christian getting involved with this build.

[@chadshidler8903]

I always enjoy your family's video my friends. I used to be a gear head to and this brings back memories for me. Unfortunately I am Disabled at 56 years old with health issues and can no longer do this. Thank you for sharing and please keep them coming.

[@hollowpoint357sw4]

The reason I love this channel is because you guys don’t give up you tear these engines all the way down to get those cylinders to move. 👍🏻

[@HANZELVANDERLAAY]

I know...they keep going.... winning...ur winning 🎉🎉

[@ZanyJIntPictures]

This revival of the Rambler is another awesomme example of why you're channel is aptly named "TURNIN RUST!" "GIT R DONE!!!" GreatbJob!!!!

[@Castrucksandtractors]

The first car I ever got running was a 62 rambler that had been sitting under a tree for 15 yrs at my Grandpas it was the car my dad and brothers had driven to school. It was also the car I learned to drive in and how to drive a 3on the tree . Now that I'm in my 50s I wish I had kept it but a 68 c10 had my attention back then . Love the video hearing it run brought back alot of memories. Nice to see Christian again its cool that the whole family got involved in this one

[@Barbarra63297]

At my age it's a pleasure to hear these cars come back to life, especially when you rode in so many of them!

[@roypowell3450]

Great to Christian on the other side of the lens 👍very good! Glad the car runs and looks pretty sharp..Cheers for now...

[@terryeustice5399]

Lance and Wyatt. None of these are easy. But you men know what exactly what to do. Christian great video. I thought the DeLorean was the toughest ever. But, you men said this was. But the clean up inside was horrible. Christian dove right in there.Thanks for sharing. 💯👊👍💕

[@CircleM20]

Cool little car, I'd clean it up and make it safe if I had the money. It's nice to see Christian in front of the camera doing that 'relaxing work'.

[@1978JonBullock]

Great to see all three of the Kraven family getting involved.

[@rexkean]

I will say... I didn't have any hope in this thing running! Ya'll impressed me

[@jetstreek17]

Thanks for the replay of an old video. This one was one of my favorites.

[@ronbunker5778]

I would have never believed you'd get that running as well as you did! Awesome!

[@2coolwheels139]

I remember seeing this when you guys first published it. One of my favorites, because despite how locked up that piston was, you never gave up! That's what I call dedication. Too bad the rest of the little car is so rusty. Are you guys going to put floors in it one day?

[@wmdavis007]

I've always liked those little Ramblers, great to see y'all got it back up and running. Thank you so much for the new video...can't wait for more. And as always, your video quality is second to none...and even the music. Love you guys...stay safe.

[@dynomitegliatti7811]

IC, in 1962 the Rambler American had a 196 ci L-head as a base engine and a 196 ci OHV engine as an option.

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent Video Wyatt :) , Lance :) , Christina :) , yes a friend of mine who senior years got a 1968 AMC RAMBLER CLASSIC 2 door with 287 V8 4 barrel Eldebrock 650 CFM with manual choke, Power Sterring , brake to GM type to disk brakes on front to change, transmission is 727 Mopar type , shocking 377 posi rear and 12 volt Negative ground too 60% orgnail but ! Car is Fire Engine Red , Black interior and 6 seater to ! Shocking got Am/Fm radio and plus works fine to with 5 speakers too! One thing amazing me it had 2 ways start up one is key ignition starting Engine up or put On postiion button in floor above before transmission bump on left side to start Engine with it like Headlights change from low to high to low again! Still working okay too and nice condition to!

[@visnichba]

My parents had the two-door version of the same car. Also 3 on the tree and a 1962. My Dad bought it from a drugstore in St.Louis that had used it for deliveries. It was white and the crease (where the door handles are) was light blue for its full length.We loved that car! We had named it 'Piglet' after the Winnie The Pooh character. My folks sold it in the mid-1970s for $30 when it needed too many repairs and had some bad rust.

[@curtisharper7042]

I’ve watched about 30 episodes of this show. And I can only recall that there was only 1 time, that this father and son duo had to throw in the white towel.

[@wesleypulkka7447]

TR, there was an old TV show called "bring 'em back alive Frank Buck". He'd capture wild animals in the jungle for zoos. You guys find hulks in the bushes and bring 'em back to life! What a save of a car that looked too far gone but you drove it! Congrats + Cheers!

[@johncase2345]

Great video. I really liked that you did not give up and actually got the motor running and it sounded good!

[@photosrain4351]

I really am enjoying my quiet Shabbatt watching you two! I remember back when you could buy cars like this for 50.00 all day long ! Good old 80's!

[@bigbill709]

That's wild to this beast running again after the shape you guys found it in.

[@war7334]

I didnt think it would ever run.Great job fellas.

[@jamesroets800]

Love this channel! But I have a suggestion - take some of your other cars, restore them to be roadworthy and have a sale with them, or give them away via lottery. What you guys do is awesome, but you have tons of other content you need to do something with. Just a thought. I love the camera work that Christian does. She's always moving, making the build more dynamic in context - movement equals work.

[@robertjean659]

Cool to see Christian on the vid. 👍🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@JohnPridgen]

This reminds me of the Opel you did some years ago.

[@edrickett9827]

I got a story for you guys. In autumn of 1978 I was 19 and I lived in Powell Wyo. I worked at Max's supermarket for $3.50 and hour. I bought a '64 Rambler Embassador from an aquaintance of a close friend. It cost me 50 bucks. It hadn't been driven for 10 years or so. I put a battery in it and drove it all winter. I had to put a water pump in it that winter. I changed the oil in it once. In the spring I went to live with my brother and his family in Las Vegas. I drove it down there and used it for a delivery car at his TV rental and repair business for a year. Long story short that car was fun to drive. It had a 327 police engine automatic tranny and I think a positrac rearend I wish I still had that car.

[@BillHilly69]

I about halfway suspected you guys will find a car one day with a rod thrown through the side of the block and STILL get it to run. Good job as always!!

[@arievrolijk6947]

I just love to see you two work together, it’s great 👍

[@seandayma]

That looks like the cars Sleeperdude buys. Rats nests from the ground up.

[@d.g.williams]

Surprised yall got it started, good job

[@jimrobin98]

You were very lucky to find someone to sell you just 1 piston for that old dog! There isn't many of them old cars around to warrant a need for parts!

[@Olson2BW]

The COOLER cars were the ones that were in the beginning of the video from BEFORE the 1960s. That's the cars that I would love to see you fix up and get working. If you did and I lived near Texas and I had room, those would be the cars that I would have been interested in buying and would be more interested in watching you fix up and get running and driving down the road. If the older cars don't have engines in them, I'm sure there would be plenty of people that would be willing to buy them if you put a motor in it and got it running and driving down the road.

[@everton2050]

Good afternoon, I'm talking here about Brazil, part of Rio Grande do Sul, I love your channel, one day I'll go to your country, I want to be able to meet this top duo, hugs

[@donaldhalls2189]

That's a lot of work, but it's in better nick than expected, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones

[@danielheartsill4269]

Rambler/AMC had a great reputation for fantastic engines. I don't know when they started but the straight six had seven main bearings and would run for ever. I put over two hundred thousand on several of them without a major problem. I wish we could still buy AMC.

[@AZVIDS]

Wow that was incredible! Nice work👍

[@PopataCorry-ok2ob]

Cool mate like your style.. keep up the good work 👍

[@steveshoemaker6347]

You fellers are amazing to watch......The old AMC Rambles is finally running......Thank very much and GOD BLESS Old F-4 Phantom fighter jet pilot Shoe🇺🇸

[@mr.redhat5702]

I thought that place looked familiar! At 33:21 you can see Vice Grip Garage's Red 35 Ford truck rat rod in the background before he drove it home. Really cool thing to see! Shows when this video was recorded.

[@matthewdove3520]

Welcome back to another great video 🇬🇧

[@PeckerwoodKustoms]

Love these vids and the opportunities you guys get to grab and reno these old cars...some easier than others but damn it makes great viewing

[@PapiDoesIt]

Those engines ate head gaskets. My dad had a Rambler with that engine and it got great gas mileage but the head gasket issue was tough. It's from a design flaw; the head would get too hot before the thermostat would open.

[@carlgrahangahan3418]

That would make an an excellent drag car

[@tKoenig-gf3xc]

I could use about 5 of those windows.. Great clean up, just amazing how ya'll can get it back up and running.

[@MarvinHowell-k4u]

You guys make the best "Will it run" videos. Some of the places you pick them up give me the Willies. I wouldn't be able to work for looking for snakes. 😂

[@danielheartsill4269]

The dip stick is under the oil filler cap. Those were very good and reliable cars. Also great MPG. You will notice some things that are in that car that came later in the rest of names.

[@terrypack7537]

My mom used to have one of those, a Rambler. White . It was in a movie called hells angels 69 . They did a stunt right in front of our house. This motorcycle hit my mom’s car , the rambler and the guy flew over a bush and landed on a mattress.

[@eugenionegron4828]

Guys, You should have removed the Crank then deal with the pistons pushing them up or Down. I love your program, May God Bless you and your Families.

[@ChickenWhisperer1000]

I don't believe I've ever seen anyone try to remove a tailpipe through the engine compartment before. Pretty sure that was most of the exhaust system. Kept waiting to see the muffler. Christian, you might want to reach out to Ridgid and see if they would be interested is sending you a couple filters for the ol' shop vac.

[@Powerstroke98]

It's nice to get some female perspective on these cars! You'll have to get your sister in more of these video's Lance, as she adds to the voice stream, with some different perspectives on the thoughts of the car itself, and its cleanliness. Always look forward to your video's, and a big thanks, as I can imagine how much time is put in on the editing of it as well. I'm another I'm sure, of Canadians that watch your video's, over here on the west coast of British Columbia!

[@POSTAPRILSIXTH]

Very good project. I saw the whole thing start to finish. I even lit up a QUORUM Short MADURO PREMIUM cigar. 2/3rd of the way. Through watching the VLOG!

[@jamesmallinger9555]

Great to see the progress, LoveJim J&R mobile service ❤God Bless Y'all and your critters

[@ClydePodvin]

Man I just love these old ramblers, not muscle cars or anything. Just good ol American classics. 😊

[@colinl9018]

Thought that motor was going to become a boat anchor, well done on getting it running.

[@LeonardMagnusson]

if i remember right. those seats recline into a bed. mine did in my wagon. bed from front to back. "cool old cars."

[@GregoryBamber]

I love Hudson cars, the little Rambler is cool too.

[@snagmaster1]

God has blessed your family, keep up the good work, love the show

[@euth]

love this - reminds me of some of the classic smaller british cars of that period. would love to see what it looks like with a full resto

[@Ellis157]

When she was vacuum out behind the passenger seat in the rear and that hole in the rear seat I was waiting for a rat had to come out or a snake or something I was waiting for it like all man could you imagine kudos to you guys for cleaning that thing holy cow

[@abelardocastillo6683]

Thank goodness down here in west Texas we ain't got all that rust and mouse problem.sure enjoy ya'll. Keep it up

[@jasonmartin2781]

These guys are located here in east Texas. Maybe that car came from a northern state back in the day.

[@jonathancharrington3410]

Absolutely brilliant as always hands of gods when it comes to these cars and vans. What would be your dream old car to work on in the shop turning rust? ❤

[@richardalonzo5768]

I’ve freed these before by removing the dust cover for the torque converter and using a flywheel wrench on the teeth in conjunction with the starter. It always worked for me unless a bearing locked it up.

[@michaeldavis8249]

Man can’t see how you guys can wear those black shirts in that hot sun. another great video from you guys. God bless.

[@robertvance1873]

I definitely remember this car and they weren't the most popular or glamorous little car's ever produced They do have a really cool look to them, Good Job you All, I'd love to see it fixed up because it definitely wants to live.

[@johnr2918]

Look out shes doing a great job, might take over the show!

[@RustyInventions-wz6ir]

Very nice work. That was n big job. You have saved yet another. Great. God Bless

[@warrenbourne498]

It good to see Christina get into the cars you Done a great job cleaning that filthy car out Christina

[@dennismackiewicz1032]

Lance FINALLY got his hair cut and he looks so much better.

[@jimbradley4565]

I think this video is at least 2 or 3 years old. The 35 Ford pickup in the background has been in the VGG for that long.

[@matthewdove3520]

If anybody can get that engine running the condition it was in you both can this is why I like your channel 😊

[@WolfmanJack66]

Excellent revive. You guys never give up. God Bless you and yours

[@williamconner9407]

Glad to see Wyatt and Christian are wearing masks on the clean out. Lance????

[@kwqd54]

Nice work. Cute little car. If the floors are solid, worth saving.

[@raymondfiandaca]

This would a be cool car with a small block, deserves to be restored.

[@chrisflaws6763]

Cool old car. Great job guys

[@jeremyconway5793]

Once again great work guys.greetings from sth Australia 🇦🇺 👍 🐨🦘🪃🐪🙏

[@dwaynentinabunt1200]

LMFAO! we had a 1961 Rambler American wagon flat head 6 with a 3 on the tree. we called it the cave cruiser. check the radio it might be an 8-track player. if it is a 6 cylinder and you can get it turning it will run. not a lot of power, but damn near bullet proof. It looked like it took daily trips through hell, but it would always start and run. The front of that car looks just like it in every detail even the color.

[@SnegHepadaet]

Came here to write, that ive seen this car about 3 years ago at your show, and then checked out the discription😅

[@fraserobrien3828]

wow a miracle ,man nice job .

[@Panosser]

I love every video love from Greece!

[@jesterr7133]

Is this an old video? I swear this one is familiar. If it isn't, Lance's hair sure grew a lot in a week. Much like Internationals, I'm also an AMC guy. I would love to see you guys do an Eagle. I used to know a guy that had four of them. Those things were so much fun.

[@JoeFilardi]

hi lance and dad and sister good ep you guys did a great job on bringing it back alive. one pistil was broke it hell you up but you got it started good job.

[@howardanderson9386]

Good job on getting running

[@bengallett620]

Hey I hope that you'll come back because I really miss watching Joe's TV shows

[@merc1248]

The Pacer is still on property?!? Thought it would be long gone

[@PrattsWorkshop]

My first (restore) on a car was a 62 Rambler 2 door in that body style. Got hard up for money and had to sell it, it got totaled by the new owner two weeks later.

[@marionicholas9624]

Hi Brother I love your videos from India God bless you and your family

[@MikeWillis-sp6vj]

I hope your successful at getting the motor to free up and be a really cool old car to head back on the road

[@mvdnbos]

Crazy you can drive around that truck with wheels sticking out like that !

[@josephhaynie4398]

Great job again

[@tKoenig-gf3xc]

Good compost!

[@LeonardMagnusson]

some of us put and over drive on the back.they were really nice work cars.

[@jeremyconway5793]

WOW..that rambler would've been the heaviest one going around. Greetings from sth Australia 🇦🇺 👍 🐨🦘🪃🐪

[@leewalker3514]

Wow great job that’s rare that it has a sea on it very rare

[@rogerhowell6230]

My grandfather bought a new 59 Rambler American. It was pink. No one was sure why he bought that color car. We drove to Chavez Ravine in it to watch his Dodgers play.

[@TESPOU812]

Looks like its time for a new shop vac filter. LOL

[@MikeWillis-sp6vj]

Dude, if it was me at this point, I would just go ahead and do a complete overhaul on the motor
