“it doesn’t matter if it’s a ford, or a Volvo, or a Mercedes, if it’s cool I want it” Preach

[@JeffKopis]

If its a Volvo or a Mercedes, it aint cool! 🤣 Buy American!

[@Atodaso-pg9kq]

Such a strange, strange way to attempt to achieve the results you desire. 😦🤯

[@michi_danksta]

Dude owns everything but a wheel barrow. Move the mixer closer to the job... 😅

[@SaneCayne]

Ha! Yes!

[@jasonyoungokc]

What’s that @3:02?

[@thatsonebadhatharry8610]

A wheel barrow and a longer extension cord.

[@waynebuzzell2483]

Yep

[@erickvond6825]

Just to throw this out there, you could put anker bolts in the concrete in the middle of the upper most block on each corner. Those Conex containers were meant to be linked together which you can use to your advantage. Also, if you don't fill the blocks and it get's cold enough to freeze with any water in there it could break the blocks from ice wedging.

[@joedingman4181]

Trial and error that's how you learn great video Isacc btw.....

[@JeffKopis]

That's not how you want to learn skydiving.

so glad you had a chase car shooting video. It looks so good on the road. great video, Thanks for sharing! You need a vacation!

[@wadetyler5056]

I like that precision hammer!😝

[@djshnibz]

Love the Mustang, one of my favorite cars that you own, I'd say it deserves the work you have planned for it and definitely power tour worthy. Also I don't mind the non-car work videos or simple things, I enjoy all kinds of projects!

[@jamesbigham9036]

Good morning that is a badass car. I am a big fan of Gone in 60 seconds and I have always loved Eleanor

[@michaelhartzell9758]

Hey, that dust is making me cough like hell in Indiana!! Or maybe its the cabbage!! Great video

[@shanewright6958]

Looking good. That’s one sweet mustang 👍👍

[@johnstelluto9101]

looking good Isaac. From what I've seen, contractors just place a couple rows of mortar under the first course of blocks on top of footing. Spraying some water from a pump bottle onto the block will help mortar stick to block. Good luck!

[@darploin5071]

Well Isaac I see the Murray killawot behind you you're ready to launch it in the air again that was an awesome video

[@grandprix834bbl]

Glad you was able to figure out the vibration issue with the Mustang. I forgot how good the exhaust sounded on the Mustang as well

[@RickyLA469]

Issac!!!!!! QQQ for future reference when laying those blocks, use a rubber hammer, not your hand. And no you don't need to hit it hard. Just don't hit it with your hands. You need them to work on minibikes go karts and other projects.

[@normangarland6558]

Looks good. I always pressed the cups in with the vice. No chance of a bearing jumping out, But whatever works is good. The mustang needs an old set of slapper bars. With the shackles it would complete the 70's look!!

[@Thomas-fo9zu]

It takes balls to do what we've never done before, so good for you Ike for going into uncharted territory. And it looks great!

[@taurota1554]

Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along

[@impalaman4546]

Cool video thanks for sharing

[@Yelnats101]

friday!!!! best day of the week!!! Have a great weekend ike!!!!!

[@dirtracinfool]

Nice Pony! I hope to see it when you get it finished. 👍

[@danf4616]

Didn't know you had two school (cool!) buses! Thanks for the videos! 👍👍

[@JeffKopis]

If you park two school busses side by side and call it a "double-wide", YEWWW might be a redneck! 🤣

[@bilinda508]

Great looking car Issac!! You have to get rid of the shackles on the Leaf springs tho.. lol. Love the 289. Hope it stays, maybe rebuild and get it to make 300hp. Would be sweet.

[@JohnHill-jm7tm]

2 am and this Old Man from Washington NC enjoying with my coffee ☕. Isaac another great video. I stopped by and checked the Jeep yesterday ❤️. Looking forward to more visits. 🛵🧔💝

[@waynebuzzell2483]

Isacc, dump the mortar mix into the wheelbarrow from the mixer. Way easier to get it to your work and to work out of.

[@Thomas-fo9zu]

It's a beautiful car , enjoy it. We only go around once.

[@Generic_Eric_1977]

Love the Mustang, Ike. My favorite was always a fastback too.

[@gargantus5]

Another job well done sir o7 Would love to see a cut and buff on that paint I think it could come out Beautiful !

[@catdeddy8427]

When "buttering" those concrete pads, it's best to wet down the pads before smearing on the mortar. Otherwise, the dry concrete sucks out water from the mortar. That premature water loss compromises the strength of the mortar.

[@dipe277]

I'm impressed with the way the antique leather wrap has stayed on the steering wheel!!!

[@jstephenallington8431]

Your getting a garage space above the flood line is great news, I know that it was sorely needed. Your Mustang looks just incredible, really nice car Jon, I'm seriously jealous! But please do me a favor and get rid of those awful, hideous looking shakeles off the rear of an otherwise very sweet car! Great video, I can't wait for your next video!

[@JeffKopis]

"Jon"?

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Issac :) I haven't done to much with concrete cement to only on decks setup that all and yes glad got Mustang drive shaft fix before too late check on! If unverisal joint goes not fun and do lots damage!

[@conorcuomo4283]

If it sticks you lay or if it's like peanut butter you're doing a good job

[@mgainey3486]

Looks great

[@bobmanzi7712]

great stuff thanks

[@that65_guy]

Bad ass ride isaac!

[@Rebelball]

Those are the best rims for classic cars. Used to have several sets

[@timothyeames2187]

G'day from Australia coming from someone who's done block laying in the past you done well with it for a first time though as mentioned might’ve been a good idea to backfill the insides with cement basically just a mortar mix because that will give ut extra strength as for building up under and around with sand that's a good idea but I hope you are planning on putting a retaining wall around because next floods will wash most if not all of it away have seen it happen so many times anyway keep up the good work

[@bwx2121]

This man must watch diesel creek

[@chrisgray8404]

I'm with you Isaac I really like the mustang fast back

[@rosebooth7367]

I was wondering how you were getting on with the flood prevention containers last week when I watched your video.. and now I know. Being totally irrational but it doesn't half get me twitchy when you're working in white t-shirts LOL!. Have a great weekend..

[@samuelmcgill-rl3lb]

sad that is a pretty common u joint .jb weld is my friend too ,nice car .happy trails

[@Perri138]

Love that car!

[@davidcorder95]

Love that mustang wow

[@larrydavidson3402]

Pretty darn decent Mustang Ike.

[@twocvbloke]

Seeing that 2nd big yellow elephant in the room, I think you need to get yourself an Aging Wheels "I like bus stuff" t-shirt... :P

[@mikesblkmstngblltt]

I love your Mustang. I buy everything online.

[@garypenne8114]

I did something similar with cement blocks but used block adhesive instead of mortar and it worked well, very strong stuff. Will see what over time if it lasts

[@GooseGosselin]

Might be good to get some power out there, at least enough for lights.

[@Nosgothe]

Good job Isaac the bigger the hammer the better right. My dad had a 66 mustang

[@matttaylor373]

i love that car! if your looking for old stuff and people to know what it is you have to find a napa or old speed shop with real counter people !! not butten pushers!

[@catfisher420]

You can shut off the mixer to pour out the concrete. Concrete adheres better to wet blocks.

[@galaxie500xl7]

Hello Ike. Here is something that might work for you if you need it. If you happen to know where a Ford Granada might be sitting, get the drive shaft out of it. The best would be a drive shaft out of a 75 model. 2 door, 4 door doesn't matter. The rear and everything will fit under your Mustang. The whole front suspension will fit your Mustang. As far as the drive shaft goes, it will fit all 65 through 70 Mustang and Couger. As far as I know you can still get U joints for the Granada drive shaft.

[@bodine2537]

Block work looks good Ike, think it’s a little overkill though unless you’re blocking it up all the way around, you could get away without mortaring them together just block the piers up like they do mobile homes, id try to build them so yoh can have at least one 1” thick board on top between the blocks and buildings to keep the blocks from cracking but looks good 👍🏼

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

Thanks

[@RickyLA469]

If you ever get the chance find an old Mustang station wagon. They are extremely rare cars, they do exist, but not a lot of them survived.

[@tfoxx5363]

You got 2 school buses 🚌 cool

[@coltonupchurch4368]

Love the car🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

[@shadetreemechanicracing22]

I had a 67 Mouse tongue coupe.

[@chadmccolm6544]

But the u joint was made in the USA. Best parts around. Great video

[@trevormiller1366]

Bit of dish washing liquid detergent in the mix helps.

[@454Burban]

It's been a long time since I worked in Masonry, but I'm concerned about setting those containers on top of pedestals. I dunno if those few cinder blocks can take the weight of a 40' container, especially with a lot of tools and equipment sitting inside, and then a roof structure up on top. And then heavy rains on top of THAT. Hopefully my worries are unfounded.

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

You could be correct but im bringing the dirt all the way to the bottom

[@Robert-ni6ut]

Yah brick work is a back breaker 🧢 hat's off to all the guys who do that for a daily job 👏 oh and the storage container building 🏢 sounds like it going to be great Ike 👍

[@justintimejs]

I did it for 10 years, now I drive a truck for a living.

[@J-High666]

Wheelbarrow, sand to help thicken it if its soup not bad that stang is nice

[@stevenrennie2612]

Hey buddy u need a board or wheelbarrow to empty cement onto

[@whatsinanamethatthecaptive577]

What a beautiful car. Thanks for showing it again. What were the transmission options for that year? I like a 4 speed manual.

[@handsonwithblg4949]

That was nice of Thor to let ya borrow his hammer . 😅

[@haroldrogers6083]

Mixing that mortar sounds like a bad night after Taco Bell !! Lol

[@Bama3728]

Bwhahahaha!!!

[@DMCollins1977]

Nice bfh bro

[@mrutherford8590]

Get a big forklift and stack them. Cut out holes and ad spiral staircases. No telling how many floors you could do.

[@haroldrogers6083]

We have a company here in Texas called Texas Mustang parts and Restoration , they carry all things Mustang , i got seat covers for my Dads 66 Mustang there and found them to be very good quality !

[@papatomsthoughts]

Loving your shop idea, what would happen if you built a cender block wall on water side to restrict the impact of water on sand loss?

[@justintimejs]

Those block have a top and bottom, on the middle web of the block one side is thicker that is the top, practice makes perfect perfect

[@60EFFIE]

About damn time Ike..kidding, not kidding

[@noelwarner1235]

If your from WV we dont use mortor,we just stack the blocks.Itll be fine.

[@maverickkartracing]

water on the block helps when it's hot out

[@mrutherford8590]

Your ball joint remover can be used to install u-joints

[@d1ld]

I would like to have seen the U-joint centering trick you mentioned.

[@brianhayes7618]

Great ghetto garage

[@jlp5137]

Before you spread the mud for the joint take a small amount of the mortar on the tip of the trowel and where your joint will be on the block spread a thin layer first in the black then spread your vertical joint . The problem your having is your mortar is too thick and the block is too dry so the mortar is just falling. if you apply a skim coat on the block first the mortar will stick to itself.

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

Thanks

[@coryshaw4853]

Maybe its cause iv watched you for so long but it ant always gotta be about cars.. Any odd n ends video i enjoy just as much... Sometimes even more cause its diff like the hoarder house ect..

[@TheGforcead]

There are two ways to put in universal joints, with a vise or with hammer/sockets in the floor. I would bet a Ford mechanic did this one in the floor with hammer/sockets. All it takes is one needle bearing fall in cap ruin your day. I use sockets with a vise, when you get done it will move freely. Sawyer's on third street has them,Mr Sullivan, he has parts to everything. He had torque converter auto trans kit for my A500 1990 dodge ram 50. (Mitsubishi mighty max) V

[@EB-cv5xi]

Try rock auto for parts. They have a lot of parts, including universal joints. Good brand for good prices.

[@dragonrider6875]

I had a similar situation snd I found a tie rod that was bent. RC

[@darploin5071]

Good afternoon Isaac I did love the cards and cameras episode hopefully you guys can fix the dragrill but 7.11 is a good number We're taking the drag rail down the track I find this video you're showing Right Now fascinating and I'm also Curious about the tractor in the background the Yellow one that looks like it has brick red paint on the engine kind of tractor is that

[@darploin5071]

No I wonder why nobody has come up with a way to make concrete in a bag that you just throw the whole bag in the mixture you put your water in the bag dissolves so you don't have to worry about opening or wrestling with the bag you just throw the whole thing in. You guys have a great weekend

[@Falney]

There is something similar to that. Big cardboard tubes/boxes without a top/bottom. You partially sink the forms and just fill them with wet mix. You leave the card to rot away. You have to use wet mix for piers like that, because dry could be left with air pockets. You shouldn't use dry for anything structural because of consistency when setting.

[@TheGforcead]

Love the fastback, Ford motors are tractor motors so balanc8ng/blueprinting is a must building them, 289's you can get 1 HP per cubic inch with dual point distributor. Don't get mad at me if I mention something you already considered. Those containers will float away, be sure to screw some guide wire things in the ground and cable or chain them boxes Down, do not depend on weight to keep them in place, Hurricane winds get over 75-90 mph.those things seal pretty tight , but they will float away if not strapped down. Love your videos!

[@powchainsamaniego6744]

You should get new place away from water area you don't have to doing this and there won't be any problems

[@wadetyler5056]

Leave some holes for the water to drain out!

[@davidingling9791]

I'm not a ford guy but it's not bad!

[@chriscalmes5583]

Love the new piston shirt really enjoying watching you build your dream garage love looking at your cars and I wish that y'all wouldn't have got rid of the other guy on cars and cameras because it made me laugh on how stupid he's trying to make jokes

[@MartinRanger65]

A little late! I have a 65 fastback 289 C4 9 “ just got back from Rocky Mountain Race week!

[@pollyg562]

have you looked into getting an instant dam flood barrier? they have really come down in price now several companies make them?

[@user-lm1cz9lo9j]

Hey Isaac I'm having troubles with an engine here I have a 1979 Sears Gamefisher outboard 2-stroke engine it says 7.5 hp it is 50 to 1:00 I'm currently having issues with spark putting it on a new project mountain bike

[@tomlanore4283]

That sand will be gone the next hurricane hits your property.

[@leebuck180]

The Mustang is on point, even the shin getter tail pipes with glass packs😅! The old man parts store had your u-joint?

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

He did

[@jamierushing]

Hi bro from west Alabama

[@mikepelz7004]

Six cylinder drive shaft with an eight cylinder rear end!

[@isaacitllbefine7231]

I thought that too but same driveshaft between the 6 and eight according to the parts guy

[@classicstangbrn8964]

Ck your e brake cable, your rod and spring should criss- cross on the bar.

[@Bama3728]

Save your back, knees, and elbows...Buy yourself a creeper. You'll be glad you did in the long run!

[@Maybe1Someday]

Instead of making a "roof" you should run 3 containers perpendicular aross the two and then Just seal the cracks inbetween. Youd then havee a "roof" second scory and you could make doors in-between. "Andrew Camarata" on youtube is pretty prolific building with shipping containers.

[@thenine3171]

I agree if it's a cool car it's a cool car who cares what make it is
