I agree I think he approves it…

I love the bit where you and your Dad went for a run. The smile on his face showed he was a proud papa, and also showed he was still a car guy at heart. It reminded me of a number of years ago when I used to take my Dad out for a cruise. I drive a Dodge Cummins, something he and I both loved. Dad has been gone for almost 2 years now. That scene meant so much to me and brought back some fond memories. Thank you for all you do. God bless you and your family.

I can relate to that. My dad had a 70 Buick Wildcat with a 455 and to him, that was the fastest thing on planet earth. Everything was compared to it. On Father's Day in 2021, I took him for a run in my 88 Lincoln with an HO converted 5.0, looser torque convertor and better rear gears. When I passed a slower car going up a hill, he turned to me, grinned and said "it's not the Buick, but close enough!" On Remembrance Day that same year, I went to the airport to pick up my little brother (who is a soldier) for dad's funeral after he had died very suddenly and far too young.

At 13:49 in the video look at the inner fender just below hood hinge. Looks like you have spark jumping from the coil. Not sure if you saw and fixed it yet bu if not that is definitely a cause of rough running. Love the car and it’s coming together nicely, keep up the awesome work.

Great seeing the expression on your dads face and how much he genuinely likes the car. Good job!

24:40 that smile on your dad's face, that is a car guy through and through

Awesome! The part of the video with the old trans when you we’re checking for gears-13:50-… you can see around the coil sparking out at the plug boot. Not sure if this is part of your idle issue but thought to throw that at ya. Onward to turbo! Cool build man! Chris- Tuscaloosa Al

When you gave your dad the ride and you romped on it the chessy cat grin on his face was great but when you got on it after that you got that same grin only yours was from ear to ear!!! Loved this installment of the show.

@14:00 Wow, that coil is arcing off of everything around it lol

On the trans you took out there are two small snap rings holding the shift linkage together. If one of them is missing, you will have clicks from the pawl, but the spool will not be moving in the valve body. Easy to check. Great to see it running, congrats!

If they are there then the only thing I can think of is the valve body inside the transmission isn't flat causing it to not select any gears and be stuck in park/neutral

Dads Little smile right as you took off was priceless and is always worth the time spent he is enjoying that ride and the sound of the pep of that motor @Dylan McCool

Dylan, it’s a beautiful thing seeing the respect you have for your father and your fathers love for you in return. It’s something sorely lacking in todays modern mass media and something we need to see more of. Keep up the good work and much respect to your pa from out here in content consumer land.

Being myself not very mechanically inclined i like watching ur content to learn a thing or two and i used to own an 80s car that was In similar shape to this one when i bought it and i wish id have taken that opportunity to learn how to fix up an old vehicle like that but thanks

Dylan is on a mission from God to get as many roadsterations as he can back and running 👍 great video as always and I wish you and your family the best this coming year 👍✌️🇺🇲

Dylan Sir, I don't know if anyone else seen it or not but when you cranked it up on the lift around the 13:50 time stamp in the video I notice a constant spark like a plug wire spark over on the passenger side firewall. Not sure what it was just didn't know if you knew it. God Bless you my friend.

I think saw a lot of spark arcing in the coil area on the video while you were trying out the transmission the first go round, may want to look into it in case that's what I was actually seeing. Sucks about the transmission, man. I hate that for you. It always sucks to have it put together and have it not work. The look of pure joy and relief said it all when it finally went into reverse! I enjoy the videos, keep up the good work!

I had an 85 or 86 charger, just your standard run of the mill red on red with the gray stripe package that proudly said charger 2.2 on the rear quarters. Had a sunroof and 5 speed. My only gripe about it was the shifter cables...felt like it was connected with ropes instead of cables lol.

Dylan, I'm glad to see someone else messing around with the MOPAR Magnum engines. I used a 5.9L Magnum in my 1957 Chevy truck (Ethyl). I'm curious as to why you went with the A-904 instead of a 46RH. I would think that the addition of overdrive would be kinda beneficial, especially once you add the turbo. I do absolutely love the project and the channel. Keep up the good work.

Nothing better than a new McCool video!

Loved the way your dad smiled when you opened it up!

She is fighting you, but what a payoff for your hard work! Loving it!

Around the 13:28 mark. There is what looks like sparking on the far fender/firewall. Glad to see it running

20:11 YES IT RUNS!!!

Dude, your videos are awesome. I'm guessing I'm you dad's age and that smile is great! I can feel how proud he he is. Keep it up!!!

I love seeing you and your Dad enjoy these times together. Best part of the videos you make.

Is right Dylan I love that car she s got tons of power well done mate

this is still too cool great to see it running strong

Badass sir! I'm not a Mopar guy but I'm picking up what you're putting down 👌

Hahaha your dad's smirk when you hit the gas says it all man!

Warm greetings from Romania. I appreciate everything you do, I have been following you for some time. Congratulations 😁

How's it going Mr. Dylan ? First of all I like the way you always seem to put the Lord first and thank him when something works. Second you're one of the few that when you're running a new engine you take it easy to let them break in. Good job man

The car is fire, the feeling that it will take off, a powerful engine. Cool videos you have. Good luck with your future projects.

Running very smooth down the road nice crisp gear shifts sweet @Dylan McCool

The smile on your dad's face when you gave the car the beans. So pure.

I love seeing you and your Dad together on the videos, cherish your time with him.

Another milestone reached! It's really coming together. I too noticed that after you stood on it coming back from your dad's that as soon as you left off the gas, the suspension seemed to unload all at once, or else it has some WICKED bumpsteer. Enjoyed the video! Take care!

That put a smile on your face. Thats a big effort. good on you for sticking with it Dylan.🚔

Way To Go Dylan, What A Cool Build, Can’t Wait To See What’s Next!!

That's really cool Dylan, reminds me of my old cop are i had back in '93 a year after I graduated from high school. It was a 1983 Plymouth Gran Fury it was pretty rough though lol

I get a charge out of watching your facial expressions when everything is working as it should on it's maiden drive off the hoist and out on the road!!! Same as me...I get so bummed out when something goes wrong with my car! But once it's fixed and working again as it should, I couldn't be happier! Great Video!!!

Your dads grin at 24:35 when you pulled away was brilliant 👌🏻

Welcome to 2023 with a win. Always nice seeing good work payoff. Congratulations

Hey Mr, i'm from Montréal Québec (french speeking🙂). I love your videos. I had many old cars since im 48. I never had lots of money but as a big american V8 cars lover, i always bought old 4 doors, old man cars... they are well maintained, conftable and 'boaty' as i like. 😄 i actualy owned 3 of these mopars. 1 84'Diplomat and 2 Caravelle. One of the Caravelle was a police pack with the 318 under the hood. I loved these cars. Thanks for saving old cars! 🙂

At 14:05 you can see spark jumping at the coil :D

I think you did a great job on that old car. I like everything you've done since the challenger rebuild. Can't wait until the next one! God bless little buddy

Great work pushing through all the grief. I was thinking the whole Mopar or no car I bet a few times it was no car lol.

Really enjoy all of your Mopar content. Just picked up my first. 2023 Ram Rebel. My mom’s family has been Mopar forever. Grandma just bought a 2021 Pacifica 😎 Keep up the great work, sir.

I can't hardly wait for the turbo install. I also live in TN. I love the test drives can't beat those curvey mnt. Roads.

I am a noob, but I was wondering, did they not make the police cars faster than any other vehicle. Would it not be fast with the original engine or did it have some issues. I was also thinking the separate wiring to the lights was due to safety, if it would be just one wire, both would fail, but like this they could be able to keep one or maybe it was so that the front lights would flash intermittently (no idea if that was a thing in US).

Enjoyed your build. Interesting setup for the turbo

I liked this edited video much better than the live feeds which are easier to do Glad you removed the red lights. If I detailed it I would remove raggedly about one half of the stars on the doors leaving 2 of the points. This is going to be a great car event sedan.

She going to sound amazing after that turbo is Installed especially with the spool up @Dylan McCool

Once again, great job Dylan couldn't have done a better job myself. thanks for the video and the inspiration.

Awesome car.. and a great job so far Dylan. You just put out awesome content my friend.. can't wait for the turbo.. she'll scream then.

Great channel dude 😎thanks watching in the UK

I've enjoyed this build. I hope to see more on this car.

Your getting big Dylan, better start watching that fast food intake

As a police officer we had these cars. They were really really fast but you only had 3-4 hard brakes before you had brake fade. Then it got scary !!!!

I’m so happy for you Dylan the shakedown run went really good.

When I'd see those cars in the 90s, I never really used to think much of them, but based off of what you've done; the Diplomat has real potential. Getting a straight one and doing a restomod sleeper car would be cool. Jet black, poverty caps, and a 5.7L Hemi would be nice.

I want to tell you that non pretentious honest content, like this, makes me want to watch more. Keep truckin’

Awesome, you are now my favorite car channel

"If yall ever wondered where I got it from" that's so true, the more the years go by the more I find I'm a lot like my old man, I sure he's proud to be your dad

Considering i just subbed you because of Franks model works. Ive been watching your past videos. This is the first one that your dad had a different expression on his face. When you punched it!!! He showed a little grin that was priceless!

Great job bro, look forward to seeing a turbo run on this rig 👍

I really need a project car. I'm eyeballing a mid-late 80's Gran Fury Police Interceptor sitting in a field down the road. Now I want it more

GREAT video,loved it DYLAN...AWESOME to see the old car run AGAIN 👍🙏🇨🇦🇺🇸❤😇

I've had 5 diplomats. 2 turbo. First turbo setup was in 2000 big turbo off a Cummins 10 liter, she ripped! 4.56 gears and a 4 speed. Ran 12.30s spinning tires. Incase your wondering, all provisions for a 4 speed manual are in the car factory.

Dylan, you will get this. Don’t know why it’s not working. But all in time. Thanks for sharing!

Ya...your dad cracked a few smiles. You're lucky to still have your dad.

Congrats, Dylan. You got the old police car running. Your old man is proud of you too. When are you going to install some exhaust systems on there?

The 85’ police edition diplomat was my first circle track car. Came with the 318 but we swapped it out for a 360 after one season. The 360 made much bigger horse power. We also had a 3.42 rear end gear in it. The downside was the transmission. Occasionally it wouldn’t engage and eventually broke after 3 seasons of racing.

Great episode...had an 84 Diplomat myself. Have a great weekend!

Man i can’t wait to see it all painted and having a nice interior ( if that’s the plan). And running perfectly with a turbo and timing .

Reminds my of the mopar cop car from black sheep. Great job man🤘🏼

Great work, please remove the column shift lever, it’s gonna look goofy spooling up a turbo with the lever flopping around in park lol

That’s awesome … great first ride !

Very nice Dylan! I like it.

I waited on this video and well worth waiting for well done

Love it !!! Its cruisinstien and you are the mad car Scientist

I had an 85 Gran Fury cop car. Got rid of lean burn and all was much better. Factory rear end gears (Spicer, oddly enough) was 3:08. Changed out to 3:55. With a shift kit, it chirped only every gear. Do that and Your smile will be as big as mine was.

Love it Dylan. Love you my brother. God bless.

Pretty cool to see your Dad smile when you dropped the hammer.

Great project car, lots of potential left. Cheers from Nova Scotia

Hell yeah buddy!!! They might hear you coming but she will be a pursuit machine

Very cool dylan great job on it

That is awesome man! Great job and sweet machine

Awesome job can't wait to see that turbski on it!!!

You can tell how close a father and son are, by their devotion to the activities that they bond over.

Dylan, I swear that this will be the FIRST Turbo Dodge Diplomat I will ever see! This car needs the "full" LED Bulb Upgrade.

Great work, love your persistence. I have to ask one question, and I know this is going to sound counterintuitive to someone who loves hot rods... What kind of mufflers do you plan to run? To me, one thing that always made police cars so intimidating was how quiet they were/are. Back in the day, some of the local sheriff's put cutouts on theirs for that extra "oomph" when it was needed but otherwise they preferred them to be scary quiet. I kind like that idea.
