Accelerating a car from a standing start is one of the most important and noble things a man can do. Yes. Yes, it is.

Like how uncle Tony is helping out Young and the not so experienced hot rodders out. Also help the not so experienced guy and gals out with they're classic cars the get them running better and restored the right way.

When I was 9 my dad dragged me into the plant that built those chargers. I was in awe and couldn’t believe how many burgundy cars there were. Cordobas and charger Daytona. It’s burned in my brain all these years later

[@livewire2759]

I'll never understand why burgundy is so damn popular. I F#@KING hate it. I'd rather have something painted shit brown than anything dark red.

[@barnabyjones6995]

My Grandfather had a burgundy 1975 Dodge Charger with a white vinyl top he bought brand new.

[@_Peremalfait]

I had a 78 Cordoba. Burgundy. White Landau roof. 318. Cloth seats. My favorite car of all time.

[@livewire2759]

@MTR LOL Yeah... brown is awful, that was my point! I like dark blues, dark greens, black, silver... even yellow and orange look ok, but any shade of red just disgusts me, probably because it's so popular, I see it everywhere and got tired of it over the years.

Best video series so far. I'm 20 and I love getting tips on old school car tuning tips. Everything now days is lap top tuning. I've been wondering about carb spacers. Pros and cons. I don't want to look and dyno sheets bc they are not accurate. Would love to hear your experiences.

[@NBSV1]

Spacers don’t usually take anything special to install and normally wouldn’t take any special tuning. So, I’d just get a couple of different sizes and try them to see if it’s any better. The spacers generally increase plenum volume and runner length a little so should help with low-mid range power.

[@HarleyHawk1]

Cool attitude Tony, reminds me when my Pops took me out in "The Judge" to show me the ways of the 4 speed as a kid. Nothing like burning rubber and hard launches to fully enjoy a car

[@yavin99]

I had a 76 Chrysler Cordoba that looked similar to the Charger and it was a neat car because it had a 400 engine and power everything including power seats and the most amazing thing was the air condition still held a charge, this was around 1990. The only mod was it had those old slotted aluminum mags and they were already on the car when I got it.

[@Phantom0fTheRouter]

I had 1977/8 triplets when I was in high school back in the early 80s... 77 Cordoba, 77 Charger, and 78 Magnum. The Cordoba benefitted from engine swaps as it's sisters did. Replaced the 318 in the Cordoba with the 360 from the Charger when it got a 426 from my cousin's wrecked 'Cuda, and later it got the 400 from the Magnum when I acquired an A12 440 from a friend who wrapped his dad's Road Runner around a tree. Got a Reckless Driving ticket in the Magnum for burning the tires for a quarter mile and jumping the flood wall/rail-road track bed (burn out did not stop til it was in the air), in front of the south end donut shop. Given what happened with the values of classics these days, I really wish I kept the destroyed chassis and titles of the donor cars.

[@MrJohnnyDistortion]

I once owned 2 - 1979 Chrysler (Cordoba) 300's, both with the 360 lean burn system, spinnaker white, red/blue pin striping, true dual exhaust, red leather interior, X - 300 grill, 300 scribed port windows and a floor mounted button that changed radio stations.

God dang, this timing! was just looking into necessary upgrades for my 77 Cordoba!

[@michaelwallbrown3726]

first thing you do is put some 4:10 gears in it that will help with the sluggishness

[@easygoing2479]

Yup... do SOMETHING with those gears. 3.55 is a really good gearset for street along with performance, especially with a higher stall converter depending on the engine setup. But 2.45s.... wow. Good for loafing.

I take it 125mph was not limited by the gearing as it was limited by power. Lol.. 4 speed 4:10 gears will do about 115 before rpm seem way too excessive.

[@andrewbutton5580]

1975 Charger is like a Cordoba. I remember when they were new and they were cool then, and they even cooler now. Any Cordoba guys are a - ok with me. I was very impressed with them as I was in a brand new one, and YES, it's Lean burn worked fine. Comfortable, smooth, well built, smooth, lots of creature comforts at the time, I wish I could go back. It had red velour whorehouse colored interior and not the Corinthian leather. There was an ad with one of these and said the Night Belongs to Charger, and it probably still does. I would like to spray a leanburn 400.

It’s cool he is helping those guys out, but he should put some of that knowledge into actually getting one of his cars to make it down the track without shit falling off. The guy knows a whole lot about cars and racing, but somehow he can’t seem to build anything that backs up all that experience he has. Bottle rocket was supposed to be a 10sec 1/4 mile car but it’s been like two years and it’s still not even making full 1/8th mile hits. I’m all for the backyard budget builds, that’s why I watch the channel, but what good is showing people how to do it if the cars you build never run or make it down the track...
