Wagon Gets A New Look! And A Huge Leak Fixed.

After 7000 miles of 100% reliable service on our family summer road trip last year we have since had nothing but problems out of the 91 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser station wagon. So in this video we are going to fix some of them. We have a huge oil leak to fix in the oil cooler system, and all 4 doors no longer roll up and down, and to top it all off we are getting to windows tinted which totally changed the look of this wagon.

Yall remind me of my life, except I had 2 boys and 2 girls. Sold my garage when I turned 70. I am an ASE Certified Master Mechanic. A few weeks ago after my second heart surgery the Doc said I would have to park my Nitro Dirt Drag Motorcycle. Reckon I'll be fishin more. Your videos almost make me cry, you'll never know how much alike my family was to yours.....Jesus loves yall.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Thank you. Sounds like you’ve had a good life

[@Jon-gk5yn]

When you think there is nothing else left to watch tonight and a Sleeperdude video pops up....put the kettle on, the pillow can wait.

[@lorileewalters2018]

I KNOW RIGHT❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@markvials6021]

after 7000 miles that old girl deserved some loving , she a gem.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Absolutely 👍

[@ryandavis2580]

Do a burnout!

[@lloydhills7416]

​@@sleeperdude2690Thanks for the great Video. I thought look at that, just look at it.

[@campervanbug7658]

Toss a 540 in it😊

[@Robert.Tower.]

Sleeperdude bonus video im soooo happy

[@Robert.Tower.]

Imediately got a smile on my face when I saw a new video posted

[@sleeperdude2690]

Awesome thanks

[@SawtoothSpeedAndCustom]

Nothing could have made my Monday better than a surprise upload from Sleeperdude! You guys are awesome!

[@ctgriffi3899]

"Pure Luxury" ...right on, Ralphie!!! 😆

[@danhard8440]

you should take Ralphie to the car junk yard with some wrenches and tell him to fill his pockets with nuts and bolts🤣😅

[@jerrym3261]

I don't know about the junkyards there but, at least one up here has a one price for all you can carry day several times a year. Of course there are all you can carry videos you can find on YT that are pretty entertaining if nothing else. It's pretty amazing what some people can carry down that marked off path.

[@troynutter8902]

Do we finally get to see the bodywork man in action soon (Gremlin was a quick amateur style job), or will you send it to a PDR guy. Maybe you will surprise us and do the PDR yourself!!?

[@GregoryBamber]

Glad you are fixing it. It got you home without a problem before it died on you so it deserves fixing.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yeah for sure

[@thestreets5206]

To me it's the perfect car ... I'd body work it like today if it was mine

[@dakotahedwards1670]

I like the long videos on the main channel, but these quick update videos like this are an awesome look at small things that don't fill a whole video. Can't wait to see that thing with some new hoops.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Glad you like them!

[@user-ys7uo4fw3h]

Love the way your family makes fun of Marge’s driving lol 😂

[@user-op4lm9mu7u]

As a kid growing up in the. 60"s and 70"s , station wagons were a common sight. Seeing yours brings back memories . Especially road trips and the drive in movies . 62 Rambler American , with a flat head 6 . Sure miss that station wagon .

[@davida.p.9911]

Unless you tow a trailer with it, the oil cooler missing is no big deal. That's part of the trailer tow package. It'll be fine!!! 😎 Definitely looks good with the window tinting! LIMO STYLE! If you do put new hoops on it, how about some steelies. Like some off a Caprice....with the center caps. They'll have bow ties on them, but nobody will notice. 😁 She looks great! Thanks for sharing!

[@sleeperdude2690]

Great point!

[@jetknight7562]

The sleeperdude family wagon limousine I can see it driving around with sleeperdude little flags on the front 😆 🤣 👍 👌 came out awesome 👌

[@sleeperdude2690]

Awesome thanks

[@chipprice1174]

Josh, may I offer a suggestion? In the future, put the stickers on the drivers side, that way, When you turn your head to look at your blind spot, there's nothing blocking your view.

[@Kevin-Murphy-007]

Awesome. Thank You Josh and Tosh and Family. You made my Monday afternoon perfect. Thank You for taking the time to upload these Superfantastic videos for us all out here. God Bless You All and your Family and Friends. We appreciate you guys. Love from Hebb's Cross Nova Scotia Canada.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Our pleasure!

[@SuburbanK2500]

I concur! From just outside Stewiacke, Nova Scotia (halfway between the North Pole and the equator 😀)

[@danhard8440]

my hats off to the guy fixing the windows i have done that in the past doin autobody and it still gives me headaches just thinking about doing it🤣😅

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yes!!

[@johntatum1951]

Yep thos guys at Nabors did a great job!

[@mariohughes2289]

Sending Love ❤️ and prayers 🙏 from IRELAND 🇮🇪

[@wolfgangricky]

As an agent for a fellow KZbinr & Music Star, i work diligently for privacy for my client. So i get the creepy feeling the kids are feeling when peeps are gawking at them. I did here you say you were coming to Lebanon for a show. Our place is 1 mile right behind the fairgrounds. Hope we can invite you for a cookout then. Ty for taking us along

[@Hello.ThisizBOB]

😂😂😂 "Creepy this, creepy that,.... hey, come by to my place for a "cookout".." , hahaha. No. Not creepy at all. Sorry. Not trying to be a BEEP BEEP, there was just a opening that I couldn't pass.

[@joelcrow]

Totally agree about Ceramic tint... it cuts WAY down on heat inside the car and it even cuts some road noise down as well!

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yes!

[@jangles1839]

She looks so much better (most any do) than stock with the windows tinted. It's truly impressive how those 70s, 80s & 90s wagons are making such a huge comeback! The car us kids were horrified to be seen in is what those same adult car enthusists are now after! 😂

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yes!!

[@Palarisha77]

So jealous of that guy’s rivet gun! And it’s great to see Big Booty Judy isn’t sitting out in the field, it’s just too cool!

[@gregorybarth930]

Rivit gun or nutzert tool?

[@elusiverecon4606]

It’s a rivet

[@Tsenngu]

That car deserves some GOOD hoops. I mean its a legendary classic and getting some tough hoops on it will make it even sweeter. It is a car in pretty good shape so i think it deserves it

[@sleeperdude2690]

Thank you

[@careysavage]

So glad we got a Monday video best thing on TV today since I fractured my back in 3 places I watch a lot of KZbin and it's always a blessing to get a sleeper dude and family video.some time I watch the old ones just to have some thing worth watching. Love you all keep them videos coming. God bless you all

[@rhondasweeney7271]

I absolutely positively love station wagons. I have had 2 of them. I'm so glad that you got the oil leak fixed. Thanks for sharing! 😊

[@sleeperdude2690]

So cool

[@user-wj8ds6cg8p]

That turned out fantastic, hey you should build your own sunroof cover with slide, a man with your intelligence and know how could tackle that in no time.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yeah maybe so

[@Hello.ThisizBOB]

Yup. Like how the RVs have them insulation cushions that they shove in the roof vents.

[@Ray-tf2fl]

ROCK STAR GANGSTER!!!! THAT'S WHAT YOU ALL NEEDED!! LOVE IT!!! OLD CHEVY NEVER DIE THEY GET MORE EXPENSIVE ✌🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@rexkean]

Love that wagon, she treated ya'll really good, and deserves a bit of love!

[@jimhickey2276]

The hook on those wagons was towing capacity, thats why they had the oil cooler. I have a 96 Impala with the same deal. If you haven't, put plugs in the radiator or loop it somehow because those cooler lines can go and if it does, you're gonna dump the coolant right away. I think thay should hava done a remote cooler personally, imagine that internal line goes and dumps coolant into the oil! Those windows always go, I've done mine twice already before they made an upgrade on the little plastic part that breaks all the time. Have fun y'all.

[@jonnysuperglide]

Josh hope ur eye surgery went well and u r ok. Thanks for posting a video on Monday. We got home from work and we seen u have a new video posted and we were so happy. We were jumping up and down in the kitchen lol. We have something for u and ur family we r going to send. Jon has been working on them for some time now. We hope u will love them. From Jon and Jen in Pittsburgh Pa

[@neostratospey6946]

Hello. I have been looking at your videos for a long time. You are a amazing man. The way you are carrying your entire family is fine to see. Keep up the fine work. Greetings from Sweden.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Thank you

[@williamwright7262]

Love the wagon. Just bought a 1992 Buick Roadmaster wagon. I love this thing. Keep this car forever.

[@brianpulstsr8680]

If a GM car of this era had a factory hitch, it had an oil cooler. (Towing Package) If I lived in your neck of the woods, I personally would repair it. Carry on!

[@sleeperdude2690]

Ok thank you

[@rocknrolla3114]

Fun Fact: Wix makes the filters for Amsoil and has since day one. Amsoil commissioned Wix to make one that would filter down to 4 microns which is what made the Amsoil system unique and also(when the word was out) made Wix become more popular since they began to sell the same quality filter with the Wix brand-name on it.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Interesting

[@Profabdesigns]

I am glad your family got the wagon back in tip top shape again. She’s a beaut Clark! I have a square body suburban 2WD C2500 with a big block (454 ci) and a whopping 42 gal gas 💦 tank! Marge could probably knock that down in an afternoon huh? I may be selling the ‘Burb’ too many projects. Love the show brother!!

[@jackierash9680]

I was sitting here getting bummed out but I just got notification and made my day ❤

[@sleeperdude2690]

Awesome hope you enjoy

[@phillipbouchard4197]

I was just thinking the other day when watching your video of WaWa's first VW car show what was going on with your Oldsmobile wagon. Thanks for doing this update video on her and glad you fixed your oil leak. Reminds me of a bad oil leak I had on my 1987 Ford Crown Victoria about ten years ago ( I was losing a quart a day ). It turned out to be a hole in the oil pan had developed under a paint blister and was weeping under it. To replace the oil pan required undoing the motor mounts and jacking the engine to clear the front suspension. Engine has been tight ever sense - I change the oil every 2,000.0 miles and never add between changes. The car now has 248,000.0 miles on it and runs like a watch. Just had 4 new Uniroyal Tigerpaw casings installed and it floats down the road like your Oldsmobile. These new " casings " are white walls - not easy to get now a days. Those cars of mine all have white walls as they do not look right with back wall casings. Josh - I was careful not to swear on your channel. You guys take care and I will send some new photos of the 1987 in her new casings.

[@tennwingman3350]

I run the Rotella T-6 15W40 in my Honda Goldwing motorcycle because it is JASO-MA certified for wet clutches also. Has done my real good on my third Goldwing. Be safe, have fun.

[@greggsvintageworkshop8974]

That's a REALLY NICE car Josh, she's a keeper for sure. The tint really looks GREAT, and you have to enjoy the privacy it is going to give your family, now that you're all celebrities!

[@anthonymessina2834]

What a nice surprise!!!! A video from Sleeperdude on a Monday!!!! I love that wagon!!!! New hoops are going to set that car off!!!!

[@sleeperdude2690]

Thank you

[@williamhelms9942]

That Oldsmobile is one of your best cars. Good Job!

[@tkdterp8]

I agree! It is my favorite 🎉

[@lorrainebarden6384]

You should make sleeperdude pet collars. Jamal would look good in one. That tint is awesome!

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yeah maybe so

[@mattcarroll5603]

Man I just finished watching the video on Wawa's Beetle this morning (have to watch when I can). Now there's another new one up? Thanks, Josh and family! God bless.

[@quickdeuce]

Ya'll are gonna LUV the Olds even gooder with the winder tint install 🙂

[@metaldragonbraveheart]

She's looking amazing , I have been looking for one a bit older but being up north it's hard to find one that's not a rust bucket ,

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yeah I believe it

[@timbeers999]

Looks good. I think the bug would look good with the tint have a good day guys 🇺🇸🇺🇸👍

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yeah for sure

[@leechamlee1347]

With your eye problems, the 5% on the back will be difficult backing at night. It needs a touch screen dash and backup camera next!

[@tomsmith833]

I do love station wagons, had a 86 country squire fully loaded , one of my favorite cars

[@user-cx5sl2et1b]

Good Evening Family, I am so glad to see you again today and I hope you are doing well and having a fantastic day today Beautiful Lady 😊❤ !

[@robertvance1873]

Only problem without the cooler is towing problems and maybe temps. Thank you for another great video WOOOO!!!!!!!!

[@tombridges5946]

That's a Kool wagon! When I was stationed in Japan in the Air Force, I swapped in a ZZ4 Chevy crate engine into a Pepto Bizmall colored Caprice wagon owned by a couple of Japanese surfer kids!

[@davidfarmer1666]

Save the oil parts you took off this Oldsmobile you may have to go backwards. The Oldsmobile was a gem that you got for a steal. Take care of the ones that brought you.

[@moto-hl1kb]

very nice, glad to see that custom cruiser getting some love. those 90s cars are getting rare , it nice to see this one going strong..

[@sleeperdude2690]

For sure thanks

[@xozindustries7451]

Cool deal! I’m glad that the wagon is back in circulation.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Me too!

[@davidfarmer1666]

I had cat surgery in both eyes a week apart. That was like thirty years ago. My father was an iron worker and welded, getting his eyes burnt. He had three surgeries back when they scrapped the cats off. I remember him in pain so when they said I needed cats removed I was scared. Then the doctor told me with Lazer that was all gone. I'm now 75 and I'm thinking I may need to go under the knife again. I also have contacts inside my eyes. Good luck and don't watch the welding. With your son now welding you need to set aside an area for him to do his welding. Otherwise your family members are going to start having burning and itching eyes which will be welding burn.

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yes for sure thanks

[@ibraunchy20-vn5kd]

I'm scheduled for cat surgery on 15th & 29th then six weeks later retina surgery on both , they are semi detached and have holes in them ,( rupture I call it ) not looking forward to any of it

[@Hello.ThisizBOB]

I was thinking to myself when tosh/Marge was recording Josh from behind and his right lens of his glasses looked like a magnifying glass😅.

[@Hello.ThisizBOB]

Josh, like you, I had cat surgery when I was younger. Dr. said it was because of my glaucoma. I feel that it came on all of a,sudden after I used sinus medication (steroid) for a sinus infection. Like overnight, all of a sudden. But like other posters said, I did look at my share of welding flashes 😵🫣(Forrest🤦!) Be careful Ralphie, Josh and Tosh and girls

[@kath121]

Someone was watching over you during that trip! So glad you're getting her fixed up again. ❤

[@adrenalinefeedbackgarage2659]

That car is the coolest! Should bring it to the Oldsmobile Homecoming show in Lansing Mi with it this year in June! Not many of these at the shows but are VERY cool to see!

[@markchapmon8670]

The wagon is awesome! I'd far rather have that than a huge SUV. Imagine getting into a generously size, road trip worthy vehicle without needing running boards so you could climb up high enough to get in it. 😊

[@loose-arrow-garage]

The wagon is looking really good. I'm glad you're giving it the love it deserves. I don't speak "Southern" so I didn't understand a single word Marge said @19:41 I sure coulda used some subtitles there Josh!😀

[@sleeperdude2690]

🤣🤣

[@ARTWV]

I drove my uncles 80’s classic big wagon with the wood on the side. No muffler so it was loud. We had laughs in it lol

[@johnkelly5487]

And its super when you and the wife get to spend time together, Jack, RI, USA

[@alanq64]

O'reilly's house brand filter is made by Wix. Same filter different label. Wagons looking really good.

[@mikecooney3379]

Love the Sleepercrew Family Truckster is back in service! OUTSTANDING!

[@lorileewalters2018]

That car sounds smooth as Tennessee Whiskey, she sounds so good!!!!

[@bradnewberry8004]

Really glad you fixed it up. Love those old big wagons. It looks like a limo now. Great job.

[@scottsullivan1464]

I really liked seeing the section filmed in GA about the window tint and power window repair. I would like to see PDR on the wagon, too.

[@snowskier13]

Glad to see the wagon get some love. You’ll be amazed how much cooler it is is with the tint, especially the windshield.

[@RickyG_PT]

What a substantial surprise....impeccable, some might say 👌

[@sleeperdude2690]

Indeed!

[@cool62chev]

You can definitely blend into the Presidential motorcade now.

[@sleeperdude2690]

🤣🤣

[@jamesmallinger9555]

Glad to see wagon ,back on the road again

[@Docmiller4425]

It is looking great. Nabor's Glass and Tint did an awesome job on it. Now add some hoops to it and it will be set. Have a blessed week.

[@Lisa-vq3ow]

So glad you fixed the issues with the Oldsmobile wagon I really love it . Leave the hoops. The tint is really nice and with the hot weather down south and out west it'll really help to keep the car cool unfortunately we live in New York and we could never have the tint that dark let alone have tint on the windshield so you guys are lucky. ❤

[@sleeperdude2690]

Awesome thanks

[@angrytrucker420]

A real man knows his limitations

[@sleeperdude2690]

🤣exactly

[@micheleford4282]

your spreading miles and smiles with this car i smile everytime i see it my husband said what are you smiling at i said sleeperdude's stationwagon he came to look and smiled its just nostalgic and fun

[@PalmerGulch]

Wow, Nabors did an outstanding job with the tint and inoperable windows...First I have heard of ceramic tint, probably not cheap but well worth it, looks great!...Also, Great job analyzing the pesky oil leak, no worries on that anymore!

[@Julian-do7bv]

Tint makes such a huge difference on any vehicle really sets them off

[@messin-with-junk]

The car looks great as it is. If you the passenger compartment of the car to be cooler in the head space. Dop the headliner down and glue some reflectix from Lowes or homdepot to the back side of the headliner. It will stop 55% of the heat from getting through. It will also keep the headliner material from coming loose and falling down .

[@dfusit]

Love the KZbin car community giving shoutouts to others content creators. The support for others is phenomenal.

[@sr71blackbirddr]

I love this old SW. It would be cool if you could get some PDR done to clean her up a bit. Keep up the good work 👏 🙌

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yeah that would be awesome

[@66kprdwd]

Great job fixing up the Olds wagon. It’s always good when you can find a place that is willing to take on repairs to an older car. Looks like the window issue was just a few connectors that needed replacing and didn’t involve something more expensive like replacing the window motors are having to trace down wiring issues. The wagon looks sharp with the windows tinted. I’m sure we’ll see more of it in upcoming adventures.

[@JNygaard]

I love how window tint can transform how a vehicle looks. I'm the same with light sensitivity, so window tint has been a must have on my vehicles.

[@bsu1960]

Looks beautiful She deserves all the Love

[@sleeperdude2690]

Yes absolutely

[@lindastabell6598]

Woohoo! Bonus video!!! The Olds wagon really looks great, enjoy!

[@adriabolen7898]

What better way to start off the week than with a bonus sleeper dude video?!?! Thanks for the video Josh. Definitely another great video. I have learned so much from your videos and truly enjoy watching your family ❤ until the next video….. 🥰

Glad you enjoyed it

Best Monday night show on. Thanks for the surprise post

[@bellevue260]

I'd have to replace those leaky parts to keep the cooler. That's just how my head works. Love that car!

[@timothyleake8750]

You just can't beat an older GM wagon! They'll run forever if taken care of!!!

[@davetruth_]

Take Ralph and the family to a Pic a part..Literal gold mine of sculpture material.

[@MrSpartanPaul]

My 94 Roadmaster wagon had factory blinds for the roof. One on each side and could be retacted. The windshield came with Solar ray blocker too. Purple metallic looking on the outside. LT1 really wakes those cars up.

[@rgbigdog]

Oil coolers are usually a part of the tow package option.

[@ianwiggins5499]

Mr. Sleeper dude the man of the house how come you’ve don’t catch surgery because you don’t look that old you only look about 40 so how come you’ve had them? That looks awesome all tinted windows. 😅😅😅😅😅

[@garybender6031]

When we was in the Marine Corp at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina we owned Pontiac wagon with a 455, loved it.

[@lenovoR62]

I like the factory Hoops :) The Great Blue Wagon looks great :)

[@chrisgibson6960]

Love the look on the wagon. Definitely needs some nice hoops, that will really make it pop. 👍
