I am an older guy and it is so nice to be able to listen to dialogue on a video that does NOT have every other word a curse word. I just subscribed to your channel a week or two ago and have been having a great time going through your old shows from the beginning. You do a great job and it is very much appreciated.

I agree. I'm fairly salty myself, and I use cuss words sparingly, for emphasis. But I went to Zip Ties and Bias Plies once for about 3 minutes. Every other word began with either an F or a C. That's not colorful or emphatic, that's just stupid and illiterate.

This Independence Chevelle journey has been pulling at my heart strings and its the best thing ive ever seen. Ive been a follower since you barely had any subscribers and when you pull this ol gal out of the woods I really didnt like this car and thought you were stupid to even go through that and put in the work and money because it was so bad and I thought it was such a piece of junk that should be scrapped but God bless you for changing my mind on this car. Ive been a mechanic for 20 years.

I had one with factory 283 4 barrel carb, 3 speed on the tree with Overdrive in the Dash ,charcoal and ivory was original interior, the car had OLD body damage/ancient repairs to RR quarter panel, I sold the car in early 90’s . Would be interesting to see if that could be our old car.. car was in Arizona until I rescued her from the desert,to bring her to the Rust belt... LOL..

I spent the first month of the pandemic last year going through every inch of wire in my 92 Chevy 1500 tibby. Then added another 70 feet or so with all sorts of digical toys and enhancements. Then I dialed in the EFI tune and I still like to fiddle with it. A guy can make himself multiple tunes for different conditions. Cold weather richer warm weather leaner (that whole air density vs temperature thing), a tune for towing, one for the valet, no EFI will magic your timing tables for you so much (yet) and that’s fun tickling out the last she’s got. Great stuff, love what you do. Bring the thunder!!!

Telling everyone about you and the great work you do

She’s on her way I’m starting to get really excited 😜.
