The thing I love most about Junkyard Digs and Kevin is the format doesn't change. A video from years ago could be watched between two of the latest and it's the same great content. So many channels try to change things up and end up losing that magic that brought the people back for that comfortable escape or vicarious experience of watching what you always wanted to try but never got around to or are just starting out and want some good inspiration and the wealth of knowledge that Kevin brings to the audience.

[@marcbink5370]

Nice to see you guys finally do a Buick; I'm an old Buick nut who's owned countless vintage Buicks over the years. When you took the brakes apart I was screaming at my monitor that you won't find the right shoes. I used to have a 46 Super, and I ended up getting the shoes relined. Same problem, parts stores are wrong. The Dynaflow is slow, but chances are it's all gummed up, the torque converter stator is staying in high pitch, it's not flattening out - the red line on those cars was only about 3800, at 60 mph that thing should be doing about 3000-3200. It'll do 80 on a good day, just once though. Those engines have slush cast Babbitt bearings and lousy top end oiling, so no excessive RPMs. As for the tranny seal, it's likely the torque ball seal, they always go, so you'll fill your rear axle with tranny fluid. Fill the shocks up with motorcycle shock fluid, they'll come back. Also; I think the rear axle tubes in that rear end are still dry, so the axles have to come out and the bearings need to be repacked, otherwise it'll howl like a banshee. And yes, Cold War Motors has a couple 1950 Buicks, one of them runs, so we're watching...oh, and mechanical parts aren't that hard to find for one of those, they still exist, you just have to know where and who has them! Hope to see more of this car, hopefully with a hood on and still stock. (Although those Buick Road wheels didn't look too bad...)

[@michaelbenardo5695]

These engines redline at over 4,000 RPM. Peak horsepower is not Redline. Redline is the maximum safe engine, usually well past peak horsepower speed.

[@michaelbenardo5695]

If by "lousy top end oiling", you mean the rockers, I improved mine by replacing that metered fitting at the end of the feed line - the oil filter discharge line is the rocker feed line - with a conventional fitting. I never had any problems that way.

[@electricboatal]

I really liked this episode, it brought back some great memories. I had a 1950 Super. It belonged to an older woman that lived near my home. I would help her often doing the small chores around her house. I became the proud owner of it when I was 14 in 1967. She never drove it after her husband died because she didn’t know how. When she sold it to me for $80 it was in pretty good condition. It was incredibly dirty but it only needed to be washed. The tires were all bad so I bought a set of recaps. That old car drove beautifully. It was such a beast on the road because of it’s size. On one trip I took it on it averaged 18 mpg. Surprisingly good for such large car. Have fun with your fine old Buick.

No shifting gears in those, just a super special torque converter. Great for smoothness but you can tell that fuel was cheap in those days, engine probably spends as much of its output stirring fluid as it does moving the car.

I know that Kevin is addicted to his brake clean starting of old junkers, but I can’t help but wince each time he does it. Brake clean is really good at washing away oil, the one thing you don’t want in an old engine cylinder with low compression. Maybe it would be a good move to switch to 2-stroke fuel like TruFuel you can get at any parts store??

[@tauncfester3022]

@@JunkyardDigsUsing gas to clean parts is rather stupid, especially if you been doing it for decades with leaded gas with no hand protection. Low odor oil paint thinner cleaner is just as effective. The point still stands using some liquid spray as a fuel replacement flammable will damage cylinder walls if this "fuel" isn't mixed with some oil. It's better to use something like MAPP gas or Acetylene. Or do like Musti does, make a special bottle filled with 40:1 to spray down the carb throat and save the cleaners for cleaning.

My frame was all wood with old wheelbarrow wheels, the steering a wire driven rack and pinion contraption. It went all of 15mph but "rowing" through the gears on that goody thing was life for a couple years.

I just wanted to say thanks Tom for allowing us to see this old Buick. I have been a fan of Buicks since I was a baby boy. My grandma used to take me to the store with her in the 87 Regal. When I would spend the night at her house. My dad eventually ended up with that car and drove it till he had to sell it. I was devastated when I found out he sold it.

The old Buick is amazing they definitely don’t build them like that anymore. Good to see you three got it running. And doing your favorite brakes.

Black pepper is great for clogging up coolant leaks. Just run the motor with coolant until warm, start dumping pepper in and it will clog whereever the hole is. (who carries black pepper in the trunk i hear you say? 🤣)

Love Tom's Classic Mark Martin shirt. I have a drawer full of them. I knew I liked him for a reason! Great revival!!!

[@derbydriver]

My very first (and so far only) revival was a 1952 Pontiac Chieftain straight 8, that had sat for years, and then the daughter of the owner had it brought to my high school shop class after he passed away. This was 2002. Then, it sat in the shop up on a 4 post hoist for 3 years because nobody could get ahold of the lady, and nobody in class had any interest in working on the car (they just wanted to work on their own cars I guess). Until I came along and was obsessed with it. I was able to get it running and driving, and treated the thing like my baby, keeping other students away from it. My shop teacher was trying to work out the abandonment laws to see if I could even take the car home, but obviously that’s all really complicated. Wouldn’t you believe it, OUT OF THE BLUE, the woman calls asking about the car. She had it picked up a week later.

I'm working on a 56 Buick Century I've had for years. Mechanical parts for these cars are readily available. Im glad you guys got this baby going.
