Unfortunately, there was no part two because the engine decided to have low compression in two cylinders right after I filmed this. Don’t worry! Daisy will come back. I have a lot of parts lined up ready to go in the near future. Thank you for watching!

I love seeing older cars from a simpler time being given a second chance! BTW, you and your viewers might be interested in a small YT channel up in Alberta, Canada, called coldwarmotors. He rescues old cars, trucks even bikes from junk yards and farmer's fields. Mostly late 40's to 50's, into the 60's cars from all brands but mostly Mopar. Does it all with virtually no money.

Hard to find a more simple car that is perfect to learn on similar to the one in the video. I am more of computer guy but I have learned so much by working on my car.

Ya dude! I got myself a 68 coupe with a i6 and i love it. When i got it a few days short of a year ago everyone laughed at me and sead i baught a peice of crap and itll take forever to get it back on the road. It had insurable papers so that helped. But she was ruff. Had a seized motor and carb. The body wasnt the greatest but bit by bit i cleaned her up and got the motor turning without removing it and eventuly running. Now i drove it to my first car show a few days ago and everyone loved it. All the mustangs there had v8s and some people didnt even know they came with a i6. Keep er up and dont listen to anyone that trys to down talk your ride. My cars proof of what can be done in less then a year and im a full time single dad so i dont really have money to spend so i made things work.

what a fantastic idea for a series, id love to see you continue this with a budget of $5k, $7.5k and $10K

I picked up an unmolested 66 Olds Delta 88 4 door. After 51 years I became the 2nd owner. I'm loving the the thing. I got it running and driving all that's left is having the paint cut and buffed. Love your channel and builds like this.

Just did this a month ago 63 dodge Polara 318 4 door

I feel this video. I'm 21 and own a 1965 dodge dart 270 and its a 2 door hardtop! its a great car with the same engine! the good ol 225 :) its an incredibly reliable engine. If anyone out there is looking for a cheap car with a reliable stock engine, look for the slant six! Those things will run and run and run. I've own my dart for 3 years now and have put maybe 25,000 miles on it, driving to and from work, and commuting from college to home on occasions. I once put 400 miles on the car in two days! The car took it like a champ and had no issues! I love the old darts!!!

Thanks for sharing this man, there are so many people that do not realize that they can afford a classic if they put a bit of effort into the search. I know this from experience, I found a 1964 Buick Wildcat 4Door hardtop. I got a great deal on it and later while investigating the vin and looking at/ replacing worn out parts discovered it was an old Interceptor. Sadly not getting it onto the road this year (overhauling the front end, brakes, transmission & heating system) but definitely gonna have the old girl back on the road next year. Looking forward to taking her out to a few shows/ races (10 second car). She’s got a whopping 1000hp with 600ft/lbs of torque (naturally aspirated), which isn’t bad for 19 feet of old Detroit steel 😎👍 Please keep doing these videos to inform those interested in the old classics that they can afford these old cars and can maintain them. The more people that know, the better. Your channel is definitely one of the reasons that these beautiful old cars are still on the road 😎👍

The first car I bought 40+ years ago at the age of 16 was a 1969 plymouth valiant 4 door. It had the 225 slant six. I loved that car.

I love your style and the way you calmly explain everything. I also love that you take cars that aren’t necessarily expensive or popular. Thank you for everything you do.

Dylan, my first car was a 70' Dodge Dart, that I paid $50.00 for. Four door, the almighty slant six! I drove that car damn near to death, only selling it to buy my dad's 70' Dodge D100, 318 long bed! This is a great video, to help people get thier first " hotrod"!!! I was in the Army throughout the 80's, and was a mechanic. I worked on countless M880s, FuryIIIs, Satellites, and so on. I was already a Mopar guy, so I knew my way around the slant six, 318s, 440s as well. I LOVED my job!!!

I love it, Love what ya brung! I love when you kids get into classics, No disrespect, It's just that I'm 50 and everyone under 45 is a kid to me. I've been slowly getting the 20 something kids at work into classic cars. I love your realistic view to "don't have to be the prettiest car at the show" attitude. So far I've shown 2 kids at work into the light of classic cars, One is a 24 year old girl who bought a 74 4 door Nova with the Inline 6 and a 22 year old guy that bought a 78 Dodge Aspen with a 318. Neither one are anything special but they both clean to start with with minimal things needed to be daily driven and presentable at a cruise-in or local car show. They both had a good body but needed painted but here in Arizona anything older than 4 or 5 years old needs a paint job and paints cheap when you have someone who can spray it and better yet someone to teach how to do minimal body work and lay down paint. Personally I have a 75 Pontiac Grand prix, I only paid $3200 for it and all it needed was a good cleaning, fluids and gaskets changed, repainted the engine, intake and valve colors and the Landau top was starting to crack from dry rot so I just pulled it off body worked the seam and painted where the top was with some of that ready to spray Duplicolor paint from the parts store, cost me $70 for the paint, other than that it was just a cut and buff on the paint, there was no other damage or rust on the car other than in the trunk and I just cleaned that up and rattle canned some truck bed liner in it and then I threw some rims on it, I have less than 4k in it total.

Great video! Im glad to see my old car getting some love. I used to own that car about 2 years ago. I had purchased it from the 1st owner but had to sell it. Can't wait to see part 2!

Oh that's a nice looking car... Checks all my boxes.. Sturdy 6 cyl, room in engine bay, simple carb...loads of nostalgia...good video

Dylan my Dart was a 72 metalic grey blue swinger with a white vinyl top, that I bought for $50 from the neighbor across the street, he had two and I think mine was to have a been a parts car but looked much better and was a six to the kept 318. It ran very rough and on my way to an evening auto class it died, my best bud a ford mechanic came and had with him a new points and condenser and put in the condesnser and it ran and to help the fouled plugs we loosened the spark plug wire ends, a shop trick , that and some mixture adjustments that night and next it was running much better. I had to replace the muffler after a warning and a retread tire came apart but I did enjoy it and wish I could get another because it was a reliable vehicle. Something to watch out for up north was the torsion bar mount rusted through, luckily it was $75 to weld a fabricated piece $125 for both sides.

Thank for your down-to-earth tips and tales on going forward & omward, with a classic purchase...this is a real gem🙏🏽♥️

You are wise young man and very articulate too. At 60 this is the same speach that I have given the newbies to the hobby. Well said.

That is Soo "cool" that you were a cart pusher for Walmart. I just got my first job and I do the same job. Love ya Dylan

Hey Dylan your the kinda guy we can all relate to, not some spoiled rich kid.I pulled alot of my frist cars home and my truck , worked everyday to earn the money to buy parts and when I got them running I could not have felt prouder as if it were a brand new one.Heck for a kid I think no kid ever should have mom and dad hand them a new car till they have bought a good ole sitting in someones yard or car port or in the weeds car or truck and fixed it up..I did have an older brother who helped me to learn about engines and working on them, but I took off like a jet engine doing stuff cause like most young guys I loved my old junky cars so much.I had a beautifull1966 ford ranch wagon station wagon.It was a little under sized compared to a full size wagon had air spoilers factory on the back it was my love for a long time polished it all the time.When I bought it had 289 with the pistons in the oil pan no joke broke and pieces in the oil pan.I bought a 302 rebuilt it and dropped it in there great machine now I shut up.

My first car in 1976 was a 1967 Dodge Dart 4 door with the slant six. Mine was blue. Not a pretty car, several faded shades of blue. But it ran great, and was un-killable! I'm going to enjoy this project VERY much!

Agreed Dylan. You can do whatever you want. I am no mechanic. But 3 years ago I bought a 72 Satellite for a good deal. The car has taught me a lot. I basically replaced most of the consumables. Still have little money in it. And 3 years later, this thing is now doing road trips with no hiccups. It's a blast. It's thanks to channels like yours, I was able to do what I did. Keep it up!!!

Clear, concise, easy to understand, well thought out and well presented, very informative, I really appreciate it. Subbed and looking forward to new content man!

With my 84 Fifth Avenue, it took me 9 years to find my car. Now last year I looked at a couple Diplomats and they were total basket cases. One was an 87 and it ran and drove but, it had major brake problems along with a torsion about ready to break. The air conditioning worked well and interior needed a major clean up but, the guy wanted way more than I had in a budget. Then I looked at an 85 and it needed torsion bars bad. Again the person selling it wanted way too much. Now moving back 9 years ago I almost won a bid on a clean 85 Gran Fury and it was owned by an elderly woman. 318 with a 2 barrel Carter. Blue/grey interior and exterior. All hub caps was there. Then moving now 9 years after that I found my car for $500 and traded a S10 pickup for it. My dad always told me that if you want a vehicle don't settle for the first thing that comes up, keep looking for it and you'll find that special car or truck. That's what I did, I looked for 9 years for the right one and I've found and I have it in my possession.

In the long run I think my Fifth Avenue will last me a long time but, I'd like to get another Dart Sport if I can get the chance to find one again.

Glad to see you’re proud of your Dart, old cars are great and so easy to work on!

My first car was a 1967 Dodge Dart 4 door also with a slant six. It was dark green with a green interior and the seats were green and had a beige houndstooth pattern on them. Car was all original and the engine had 225,000. The only thing I ever did to it was put a fan belt on it and poured some stop leak in the radiator when started leaking on time. That was it. Really cool car, think $700 for it but that was 30 years ago. But it just goes to show you like you were saying you can get a nice car like this cheap if your patient and know what to look for. I just want to say that I very much enjoy your channel and because of it and the channel Nick's Garage I have a passion for Mopar. Thanks for sharing your videos and keep up the good work!

Glad you are doing this series of videos. The new drivers will benefit from the methods you show. I wish I knew what I know now about cars when I was 16 and buying my first ride.

I grew up helping my granddaddy work on things every now and then, but I never really had a lot of knowledge of car knowledge until I started watching guys like Dylan and others fixing up classic cars on KZread. It really is like going to a class and you'll pick up lots of things. Just can't be afraid to mess up and always learn as you go along. PS - I'm 40 and can't wait to start working on an old truck I'm buying...I've been cutting my teeth on a 1941 Ford 9N!

I love your restoration projects.

Your a lot like me....Got my first car when I was 13....Was nothing special, 1979 Datsun B210.... Learned a lot working on that car! I did have the help of two Mechanic Uncles for advice, but did the work myself.....After I sold that with its parts car, I bought my first Chrysler....1953 Club coupe, running and driving with a Hemi....And got a 69 Sport Fury two door at the same time....Start out small and work your way up! Glad your doing a Vid series like this! More younger folks need to realize, you can do it yourself, as well as keep it in your budget....

very cool , i had a 75 ford ltd as a first car, i fixed it mechanically, paint was crap n faded, but ran mostly decent. a good idea instead of rims- hubcaps. i had blea factory hubcaps, a neighbor had a gm wagon he was junking, and he gave me them for free. turns out the ford lugs slipped into the fake lugs on the caps, the only thing diff was i had to change the tire valve opening on the hubcaps, took em apart, cleaned the chrome bits, painted the hubcaps black over stock grey - they looked like a set of custom rims , when i was done. $2 for paint, $3 for tape , hubcaps - free , not too bad on the cheep as a high schooler

had this same experience just this last august with a green '69 dart four door and she's been my first driver since we took it home.

LOVE Darts , especially 67 , 68 models. Have had many of varying years and engines and loved them all. It would be a blast to be your neighbor ! LOL

Hahaha...you must be catching what I have. Those Holley 1920's are essentially non-rebuildable because of the metering block passages which can't be cleaned. I switch all my slants over to Carter BBS carbs, which are a direct swap for the Holley and are easily rebuildable. On the temp gauge, pay close attention to what Chrysler calls the "center bar". On '67 through early '69 Dart gauges, the center bar is skewed to the right so that at 185 degrees the needle is straight up. Apparently many people felt the engine was running too hot even when it wasn't, so in January 1969 they released a revised temperature gauge for the Dart(and Valiant) that repositioned the center bar leftward and showed 185 degrees as the needle to the left of center. The radiator still may need attention. The exhaust manifold is later, because it has the round counterweight. 3-speed wipers, that's nice. The "Charger 225" sticker is original and does NOT mean the engine is from a Charger, just like the Super 225 sticker on my Valiant does not mean it's a Super Six. It was just marketing lingo. Good luck!

This should be a great series! I'm doing the same thing with a 1950 Ford 4 door sedan. What a fun hobby, eh?

As usual Great Video... back in 1970 when I was 16, i worked at one of the relic full service filling stations for 2.50 an hour. And I learned a lot form the old time mechanics... my dad helped me build up a 1962 Impala 4 door... she was not much off the line but once that hunk of metal got rolling... watch out... keep up the great work Dylan... as stated before the Bible Verses are sure fine.

Very cool. I’ve been looking for a video like this as my son just turned 16.

This is exciting! Look forward to watching this series. Thanks, man!

There are a lot of ways to make an old car or truck over without a bank loan to fund it. sweat equity has a lot to do with it, and a vehicle you can still get parts (New Or Used) at a reasonable price.An awful lot of what you said was Pure Truth. I just watched a man on another channel pull a 1964 Cadillac out of a shed, and take it to a car show two days later, running and driving after it sat for 24 years. Good Job Dylan!!

Dylan, this is incredible! Love the approach, the car, and the knowledge you're sharing! Your Charger vids inspired me to buy my project, a '53 Ford Sedan. Similar to Daisy in that shes nothing "special", but she's perfect to me!

i love this video. im a 17 year old and just bought a plymouth belvedere II 4 door .

I'm from Germany and i was scared to buy and import a old car but after seeing this Video and your wise words, i'm okay now and will do my best

Thank you for this video!! I was lucky enough to find a 54 f250 recently and have been trying to find a direction on a budget, body wise it was restored in 87 and has been garage and barn kept since. I just would like to be able to enjoy it and have it reliable, so I think I’ll just do small modifications to make it mine and affordable. Thank you again and take care.

Reid Barnes Amen to that. Preserving a car and making it driveable is a noble cause. A true restoration is huge money and effort and you barely break even on a desireable model. This Dart is still cooler than any Hyundai.

We had a 1968 Dodge Dart Sedan with a slant six cylinder with auto. Loved that car. Never had any problems with it. Taken care of and the slant 6 engines will last longer than the car.

Woooo..... well said ,there are alot of guys out there who think you Have to be somebody that you are not..it just hard being yourself stop trying to be and just be yourself ,stop worrying about other people just be you try it.....

really hoping to see more of project daisy. it has several of the issues my 70 swinger has and really interested to see how you fix them. keep up the good work.

Thanks for the cool video can't wait for part 2. 👍

Great video Dylan..good idea & a good story 👍 Working on my '74 Lincoln last 2 years now and boy did I make some mistakes, got a shopdog too 😀

Honestly he isnt lying i got a 1965 Chrysler 300 4 door sedan for 3,500 all my car needs is paint and some upholstery but it was driven from California all the way to Mississippi and lemme tell ya everyone looks at you when you go down the road I absolutely love my car also love the vids dylan

👍👍 Good job Dylan. I’ll be following this series.

You're a good soul, Dylan. Like Hickok45, you both ooze goodness!

Dylan, another great video! I think this is one of your best, primarily because of the instructional aspect of it but also because, as a computer hobbyist, the "budget build" is always something of great interest to me, and this neatly parallels my experiences with getting a middlin' used PC and beefing it up for as little as possible to make a more powerful rig with. There's dozens of channels for that, but very few "car rebuild on a budget" channels, and the more videos like that I think, the better. Not everyone is a PC guy or whatever, so thanks for doing this. Your approach on FB Marketplace? Yeah that's how computer hustlers (hello, Tech YES City!) roll, too - search every day, and you'll find that kick-ass video card or bare bones system to start a budget rig with. Like I said, great parallelism.

Okey man... You just won my respect. Im from south América, being honest here the economy pretty sucks, and restore a car it's like a rich people thing... I somehow you rectified what I have always thought ... the important thing is that the car makes you happy. Thanks 🙏

Excited to see this journey.

That little 225 can be built pretty cool! That 73 2door was pretty sweet too!

These non-flashy, under-loved older cars are my favorites for restorations. So many people fixing up and driving around vintage Chargers and Mustangs. Pull up in a reasonably-restored '69 Dart or a '67 Cougar or a '72 Ranchero, and everyone will enjoy the unique vintage without the car necessarily screaming "please steal me"!

Yea, let’s hear it for More Door Mopars says this 62 year old Gearhead Geezer!!! All the best with your build.' My Ride: 73 Plymouth Valiant 4 Dr. (more doors), 318, 904 transmission. Nothing could be more stealth. It is a mustardy/baby poop yellow and has the 3" chunk rubber bumpers additions. It looks like it is right out of central casting for an Adam - 12 unmarked detective's car. Mods: KYB front shocks, torsion bars turned down 4 turns. E- body front swaybar adaptation (got it for free) and B - body rear sway bar adaptation with 1" lowering blocks. 1980’s Cop car wheels with 215-60-15” Sumitumo HTR tires. It handles like a go-kart! The engine has an Edelbrock Performer (clone cam, Intake and 4 bbl. carb.). The heads are ‘86 swirl port that were ported by myself. I’ve got far less than $2,000 in the whole car. It is only 2.76 rear gears that hamper the car. But..., second gear, above 40 MPH and it flat out flies.

I just bought the car of my dreams for $3,500. Its a complete 1957 Chrysler sedan with the 354 Poly V8. The only problem is that it hasn't been driven since about 1983. It also has serious rust problems in the rear driver side rocker and wheel well and some holes in the trunk. However I am being optimistic that I will have it running by spring, drive it for a year or two, and eventually do a complete resto. Wish me luck Dylan McCool!!

I'd love something like this. It's a proper family classic that I can put my boy in the back and my wife and I can take to a show. Hello from Manchester, UK :)

Good little car. To bring back. It's in really good shape . For such an old car. Keep it going bud!!

Really keen to see part 2!

Great video, man! Keep em coming. I can’t wait to see your progress on the next one.

Great down to earth video. I have a 77 M880 that I love to drive. It must be the ugliest truck in NE Columbia, SC but I love it. Rust and all. It's the character of the older vehicle and the fact I don't need a computer programming background to work on it! Plus, it only set me back 400 dollars at auction!

Very encouraging video. Well done. Look forward to the restoration.

We had a 75 Dodge Dart Sport, these cars had so many issues with cold starting up here in the north. It was nice enough but heck it didnt want to start . I remember the start fluid in the carb so many times, man! Aboue all that bondo, thats just what people did, you wouldn't go get it all cut and welded, people were to practical for all that. You just drove them, I like you channel and look forward to more .

Not sure how notifications missed this video, oh well. Anyway I wanted to thank you for sharing this and the info you provide on all your vehicles. I have been given hope for my dream repairing or restoring these old Mopars. Like you did, I am grinding it out in a minimum wage job. It's going to take the Winter to save up with a similar budget, but at least I know now that it is possible. You have my gratitude.

I like its stance and it probably rides like on a cloud.

I have always been a fan of the super cheap budget build. One of these days I need to try it out myself but in my 30s I seem to have become addicted to classics. I’m currently strung out on 2nd gen camaros and 57 Chevies.

Shane Singleton im in nj and have 2 trans ams ill sell ya for a decent price :) contact me on facebook, same name

I just traded a snowmobile for a 65 Plymouth Valiant 200 so perfect timing for this series..

This will be very educational to people that want to start off on a cool build for them selves, good deal!!!

Well what do you know? What a great find on my feed! I REALLY love your channel and will have a lot to show you about my collection of vintage and MoPar stuff. I LOVE your cool, calm presentation which is so charming and compelling and I equally love your dog! Thanks buddy for taking the time to create and sustain your channel. I couldn't wait to comment, subcribe, and rang that notification bell. I really look forward to seeing what else you have here. Oh, BTW, your advice on being respectful on purchasing a vehicle is GOLDEN. If you offend a seller, you're probably not going to get your sought after vehicle at any price. Talk nice, make friends and show some respect! I just bought a 1988 Volvo 240 with 50K original miles for $500 because the seller said he remembered me and how respectful of him and his car I was, and sought me out years later to buy his car. He had lots of other guys low balling him and being nasty and rude but he was intent on having me own the car based on the way I treated him. Back then, he and I were talking about $2500 for the car so I was SHOCKED to get his text years later telling me to come get his "baby." I keep him frequently involved in my progress and he feels like he's part of my revitalization of that car. WIN-WIN. Good advice brother.

My Late Father bought that same exact model and color combo brand new in 1967. Dodge Dart 270 with a 225 slant six and torque flight transmission. we had that car for 6 years and over 200k miles. I can't remember how many times I layed under that car changing oil and filters, Learning how to replace brake shoes, changing antifreeze. that car took us on a month long vacation in the summer of 67 and every summer vacation until 1971 when dad gave it to my older sister to drive to college. that was the first Dodge Dart owned by my family I had 2, 67 Dodge Darts one GT 273 four barrel and one GTS one of 467 with the 383 four barrel. My older sister had a 76 Dart 270 with the 225 Slant six she bought new in 1976 and My mother had a 1974, 270 with the 225 Slant six they all went to the salvage yards all wore completely out with over 250 k miles on them.
