Big old American station wagons are really getting popular again. This is one of the top 10 car KZread channels so everyone needs to subscribe to keep it strong. In the 1960s when we were young and doing lots of duck hunting, we had a 1958 Ford V8 auto trans wagon, raised up on all four wheels. We put on wider 15" wheels and big mud-n-snow tires to get down muddy roads. It was our hunting/fishing wagon. I like "run it for a summer."

MORTSKE MONDAY! 327 just goes with that car. You were just a we lad in '99? Jeez I'm OLD, I was 26!!!

Nothing lifts the spirit quite like Mortske Monday and especially Duff Dog doing Zoomies in the snow! Also enjoying the Professor Mortske minute detailing history of elements contained in the episode. I would paint the wheels of Sixtyfo the body color and put on period correct full wheel hubcaps and one inch whitewalls. The body of the wagon deserves the spotlight. I tried asking my mechanic about replacing the bushings in my ’77 Buick LeSabre control arms, and he just shook his head and said, no…you’re getting new ones. Now I know why. Nice to see a good picture of Duff in the thumbnail…Love the Duff!

Watching Mortske while working on a 1946 GMC makes monday easier to tolerate. Thank you, SIR Mortske and Duff

When I added hydroboost to my Scout II I struggled getting the rod length correct for the master cylinder. These rods are the non adjustable type and you simply cut/grind to fit. But on the ole Amazonia I found "Brake Booster Adjustment Tool " which will basically measures the rod protrusion and the master cylinder depth to get you where you need to be. IIRC you leave about 1/8" inch gap to prevent brake drag when everything is up to temp. Worked like a champ!

Well deserved and proper upgrade for a really cool car, It would be fun to see you and Duff at one of the events you attend in that machine. Looks so road trip ready!

HI MORT . AND DUFF,,, I LOVE THESE WAGOOOONS I HAVE SEEN SOME OF THESE BEING LOWRIDERS WITH A GREAT PAINT JOB,.. THX.

That bearing greaser is the coolest damn thing I've seen in a long time. It's so simple and it works really good... I spent quite a bit of time in 64 Chevys when I was younger. When I was 13 (1974) my dad and mom had a 64 Chevy Impala SS that had really low miles and it was like new. It was red on red and I remember dad telling me it had a 300/327. It was an automatic with the console. When I was 16 they bought another 64 SS Impala but this one was an odd ball. This one too had low miles and they bought it from the original owner that special ordered it. It was white with a silver blue painted top and it had white interior. This one had a 6 cylinder and a 3 on the tree but it still had buckets and a factory console. Those cars had so many cool details. 64's were my dad's favorites but I really like the 63's ... I wish I would have kept my first car. It was a 69 Chevelle SS396. Factory 4 speed with a 4.11 posi 12 bolt. I bought it when I was 15 (1976)

Hey Mortske, just a small tech tip of the day, try turning your bearings with the large side down in the greaser. Makes it a little easier to put the grease in. With that machine it may not make any difference, but the old hand push type it does. Those control arm bushings are a pain! I might have been able to give a few tips, but other than the tool, they are rough, and I never had the tool. Not even the dealerships I worked in had the tool. Enjoyed watching your shenanigans as always.

Thanks Mortske, really impressed after all these years you still have the wagon, yes it's cool and great to see it getting some love! Teenage Mortske didn't do too bad with the mods, at least you wern't like me and shave the door handles, tint the windows and... erm steel 8 spokes (cringe!), in hindsight it made my van look like a pimped out creeper van!!

That play doh press is pretty cool, definitely saves time and the mess

First I started thinking...this must be a Puddin thing..., then when you gave us the back story and history of the wagon, it must be a Mortske thing, moreover, having been born in the 50's, 55 and 57's are my all time favorites, after seeing this video, old Chevy wagons are winning me over. I will be looking forward to you two getting back together this summer. Nice upgrades and decent shape for a 60 year old car. Side note: I would love to see Sparks Motors or Deboss Garage end up with the Checkered Aerobus. I can see it as a giant monster limo or it sitting on tank tracks.

Late to the party, but love the red painted steelies! Raised whites would really top them off but I know you can’t be talked into that… Cool wagon!!

Oh yeah! I've been waiting for you to get that one in for some work. Do love the sixties wagons.
