Briar has been helping me over the summer with making videos, and the first thing he told me when he started helping was that he wanted to learn as much as he could. Today is a great learning opportunity for anyone of any age! He's quick on turning a wrench, but can he pull this engine basically by himself? Stick around to the end of the video to find out!

Teaching that young man how to pull engines/any automotive work is a better education than any school now days will give him...Thanks for the entertainment..
I wish someone would teach me how to read

Always stack a couple of wheel rims with tyres on under the car, when it's on axle stands. if it drops,it'll settle on the tyres

@@tuffteddy1446 I see so many people crawling under cars while they're just supported on a jack. What happens if the seals in the jack blow or the jack fails? the car drops!!!! Always wheels under for me!
Excellent video! Reminds me of working alongside my youngest son (the car guy) and later on, his older brother as he realized working on his own car was way cheaper than paying someone to do it. Nothing beats on the job learning, this young man did a superb job, and Dylan you were a great teacher.
Bless you, Dylan, for taking the time to teach and mentor this young man.
Love it! Dylan, you have the heart of a teacher and it shows!!
This is so awesome seeing the younger generation take an interest in mechanics. Great that you are willing to help him learn.
The best finale of learning everything I could about my first car, a 1991 Ford Escort, was to buy a parts car, and strip it down to the bare shell! Ever since then, just about any part of working on a car has been super easy.
Excellent teaching video, Dylan! Congrats to Briar for his 1st engine removal! Mine was when I was 16 (I think) on the 67 Dodge Charger that I rebuilt with my dad. He'll remember that for sure.!
I've got underwear older than Dylan, but it is refreshing to see him be the wise old car guy to a high schooler.
I've gotta tell ya Dylan, I give you a ton of credit for what you are doing with your "apprentice", Bryar, (Don't know how he spells it). It brings back memories of when I was in high school and I had a mentor do the same with me. He taught me everything I know about cars. I learned a lot and it's helped me all throughout life. You're doing an amazing thing with him. Keep it up. It's like I'm watching a flashback of my days learning about cars. The guy that taught me owned a used car lot. I worked down there 11 hours a day, 6 days a week for $50 a week. I opened the place up in the morning and closed it down at night. I earned enough to buy my first car, 1972 Javelin SST for $500. I also earned enough to put $3000 into building it into a rod. I learned a lot fast. So will he. Seems like he's got a great attitude about it and is wanting to learn. But I just gotta ask, why didn't you just drop the springs so you could just drop the axle down? And lose that Fram on there and throw a Wix on it. So when doe he start HIS channel? I'd sub.
Hey Dylan, that front header panel and front bumper would make a really cool wall hanger for your shop. Especially if you wire it up to make the lights work.

Can take a computer power supply and put a paper clip between a black wire and the green wire, and use it for a good 18-20A 12v power source strong enough to run turn signals and headlights together. Just remember on the molex plugs, yellow is 12v+ and red is 5v+
That kid is a teen Deboss Garage! Haha! Love your work man! 🙌 Cheers from Andorra! Ps: have your like sir

Im from Zimbabwe and for two weeks straight i have been checking everyday to see if you had uploaded a new video, i love your videos and thank you for this upload
Briar is already a great mechanic at 17 years old. See if he can do CoEDy with a community college to get the ball rolling for mechanic school. Keep doing it McCool style Briar.
That was a really great episode. Hopefully more channels will do some teaching episodes in the future. There are many kids that want to get involved but over think it and don’t necessarily have the people accessible to help them build confidence. Good work buddy!
Briar did a awesome job 1st time pulling engine and transmission out. I was afraid the clutch fan would get bent but it didn’t and came out like a breeze. Way to go Dylan.
Someday you'll learn how to put 'em back together Dylan!👍👍👍
Great series! You pull enough engines that you might want to grab a load leveler/tilter for your engine hoist. They make it a lot easier, especially when you're pulling the trans along with the engine.
Thanks for passing on your knowledge and love for car restoration to our younger generation.
Respect for Briar, he seems to be a great guy, loves vintage cars and has the best teacher you could wish for!
Back when I was in school I pulled out my first engine and it was a v6 from a old chevy s10 that the engine was long gone and we turned the truck into a BBQ truck with a BBQ pit in the engine bay where the engine used to sit.
Awesome job Briar! Myself, i always pull the fan off first, it gives you just a little bit more forward movement when pulling an engine. Great job mentoring Dylan!
I think it's commendable you showing that young man the in's and out's of wrenching. I wish I had that when I was younger. Great job young man!!!👍👍
You did a great job teaching that young fellow. Your patience has helped him him gain some experience and enthusiasm into automotive repair. I think he will do great. Looking forward to see more collaboration with you two. Keep up the great work!!
Well looks like Briar has got what it takes. Great job Briar.
Thanks for giving that young man the chance of a lifetime to learn, hands-on, how to work on/with cars. Its something he'll be able to use for many years either as a job or for fun or both.! well done! Congrats to both of you!
Man you guys have it SO easy nowadays...my first motor pull ( I was 16 ) on my 66 mustang was ON THE STREET in front of my parent's house. Had to RENT a cherry picker, assemble it, then pull the motor, disassemble the picker and get it back to the rental yard before they closed to save a day's rental...I was making $1.75 an hour then, at a movie theatre. I did this on my days off....
Love this kid, he's got the desire to learn but most importantly he has ability to accept direction and or critisism! He's gonna do well! Great job guys!!!
Nice Job Briar you did awsome the more you do the easier it gets you got a good teacher there listen to him and you will do just fine your doing great i wish i had someone to teach me how to work on cars i tought myself thats all i did all my life so keep up the great work bud your doin just fine your gunna be a great mechanic if i lived near you guys you could work on my car anytime the best way to learn is hands on so have fun tty soon Steve from Vermont
Great video, you are a talented teacher, wish my granpa were like this when it came to teaching me stuff

Ain't that the truth , not one time did i see a slap to the back of his head !!!
great way to learn. my son works in a chevy garage. he's been a master tech about 10 years now. good money and honest living. we need young people willing to learn a trade like that.
This is awesome Dylan, it's something every young person should know!!! I'm glad I was raised working on classics and being able to identify the different makes and how to diagnose issues. Your a great teacher Dylan! Bless u for teaching Bryer the ways of being greasy!!!🎉🎉
I love that Briar is doing this. I wish I had paid more attention in auto shop. Being a mechanic is like having a super power that prints money. I have never done anything more than change a thermostat, etc, so I'm not one to give advice, but I think Briar should wear safety glasses when under the car to prevent rust dust, dirt, and drips from getting into his eyes. Also those awesome rubber shop gloves for more grip on tools, and less clean up on your hands. Congratulations, Briar !
That was pretty neat. My first pull was at pic-a-part or u-pull. Dodge 2.2L Turbo because my Shadow cracked a piston and warped the head. Took all damn day to do. Putting it in was a whole different ball of wax.👌🏻🤘🏻 pretty cool 😎
This is awesome you are showing this young man how to be a mechanic! I started out in my foster dad's transmission shop when I was 15 he showed me everything I know. I'm 47 now!
The young man did a fine job, he should be really proud of himself! You mr. McCool are a fine teacher,great job guys see ya on the next one🤗🍺
This was awesome. Briar, well done dude. This is a massive step, before you know it, you'll be stripping engines and rebuilding and upgrading internals. Well done dude.
By far one of the best videos you have released. Mentoring the young man I appreciated. Dylan thanks for taking time to share your knowledge. I'll be watching for what's next.
Moterbike Mike here, Dude that's so kool what your doing with him reminds me of when I was a early teen ager pulling moters with my step pop.That guy learned me a lot of knowledge. Peace out brother
Well done Briar! And a well done to you Dylan! The novice learns and the teacher also learns! Keep up the great work.
Hook some chains up from the tractor bucket to the frame or unibody holes, you'll be able to move the non-runners more quickly, safely, and with less damage. AW Direct sells adapters for the factory holes to save you even more time and make it easier to hook up on the car side.
You did this young man a solid. Taking time to teach him. Great job! 💯👍👊
Good on you Dylan! ...and Briar for wanting to learn, of course. Too bad the car is all rusted out. I liked the Cordobas.
Awesome job I remember pulling my first engine I was around 17,18 maybe pulled and swapped an engine on a 83 DATSUN pick up my dad was help me one day pulling the engine from a donor truck I bought and then left me alone until I had the engine out and the other one in I had the trunk running and called him out to see it was done I felt like I was one top of the world
excellant video, teaching the young man how to work on cars, seems hes on his way, i took auto shop in high school and it was very rewarding and helpful later on in life
Funny this was released today and probably a good thing I'm 17 and doing my first pull today in my 01 ram 1500 with a 360.
Congrats to you and the misses with the birth of your child. Many blessings.
That receiver is legit for certain! I wonder who made it? Good on you for teaching a young man something useful. The process is the same for pretty much any RWD car, so now he'll have an idea of what to look at before his next pull. I was 14 when an engine rebuilder taught me, and I pulled my 1st mill solo at 18. Good job!
Dylan your awesome bud I seen your buddy without glasses cutting the rear end out and cut the camera off. Not on Dylans watch then the cam went back on and his buddy had glasses. God will bless you for that.
Great video. You are a great teacher ands hats off to Briar for wanting to get his hands dirty and learn!
What a great young lad you got there. Really good attitude. And Dylan, I hope you read this - you are one decent bloke. I take my hat off to you.
Real nice work Briar, and Dylan, you did alright too ! LOVE all your videos.
That is a beefy Tow Hitch 32:30 nice haul of parts from that chrysler Cordoba @Dylan McCool
Dylan, you're a good teacher, and that is an incredible skill to have. Briar, you are a good student, and you will do great things with your drive to learn and practice. Nice to see this, and good job to you both!
Nice work, & a bit of mentoring... I used to save my long truck tie rods, cut them off, the heat & beat the end for an extra pry bar. A couple 2-3 in the shop sure helps... Thanx !
Briar is doing an amazing job 14:51 great way to learn just throw him into the Fire 😂@Dylan McCool
Hey Dylan, I am long time fan and want to ty for all the great info. A while back , inspired by you I bought a 71 charger. The car had been vandelized and the ignition switch was toast. You mentioned a good place for used parts and they helped me out. For weeks I kept hearing they don't make that part anymore and i would have to buy a new column. I got lucky thanks to you. Now I need some window parts i can't find but i lost that info to that salvage yard . I think it was in Georgia. Ty for any help. Those little plastic nuts for the door glass is what I need. Love your videos.
id love to see this become a trend teaching young folks how to do some of this stuff
Great work Briar on removing that engine from that chrysler Cordoba 21:05 @Dylan McCool
Just wanna say great job man. I honestly couldn't tell this was ur first time.
Definitely a great teaching video. There is no better way to teach than hands on experience and you did that very well. Thanks for another informative video.
IMHO, I think it's a good idea to teach that young man to wear eye protection when working underneath that car. It is a beautiful thing to teach him the basics.
I'm just waiting for Dylan to start saying: "Back in my day, young feller..." that's when you KNOW you're old....
You've done an awesome job Dylan teaching your friend Briar. Great job and an awesome video 👍✌️🇺🇲
Been with you for a lot of years, Had 3 Cordoba's way back, did a lot of mod,s to them, I always like Cordoba content !!
Great patience Dylan, great teaching, Briar did a great job. Excellent skills to carry one thru life
Man, wish I had those rear frame rails on my Cordoba! Look mint! Perks of southern living, Iowa has destroyed my car :(
Dylan, I pulled my 67 mustang’s engine late last winter, I rebuilt the 302 into a 347 stroker! I dropped it back in yesterday and today I put on the headers, drive shaft, put on the oil pressure senders, added the break in oil and primed it via an oil pump drive shaft tool, so I can relate to this process! Tomorrow more accessories go in!
Another great vid mate,an i just wanna say i think its awesum youv got a young feller in an love watchin him learn,coz that was me once,keep it up briar an can somone teach kevin how to read please h😂😅😂,keep up the great work everybody!

Dylan, TY for the great video and teaching Briar! He seems like a nice young man. God bless you for all you do. I know you made an impact on his life. Proverbs 22:6 NKJV "Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it."
Good to see a younger generation with a desire to get their hands dirty and learn.

Dylan i am glad to see teaching the young how to work on cars. Its a dieing thing these days. Most millennials just want to Play video games and Tik-Tok.
Need more of this hands on education
Next video briar gets a b-body to swap all his parts into !!!! Good job man
Hi 👋 Dylan I glad you e letting Byer work on the car 🚙 he can learn about cars 🚘 😮 you can teach him a lot about cars 🚘 you’ll have a great day
Excellent work Briar. Seeing a young man learning some real-life skills is nice. I don't mind seeing the Cordoba being taken apart so another car may live. The damage was too extensive on that old lady. I love the Cordoba body style, but one must face reality.
You, JYD, and Thunderhead are by far my favorite car series. So cool to see this young man wanna learn

Don't forget @PoleBarnGarage , he's like the wild cousin who does the projects that no one else wants to do, and then also shines 'em up with paint and body work. Kind of reminds me of Dylan's awesome full restoration videos (welding in new seat pans, and literally doing everything to restore the car).
Good job young man. Good for you for teaching him.
Hopefully he'll show his teacher the video and get extra credit.
Life's learning lessons! I like seeing a fellow Texan on the channel 👍😎
Aswsome to se the young man learning by doing, remember my dad taugh me to work on cars when was a young man to, he past way in 2019, i work on old cars to this day still, R.I.P Dad❤❤
It's amazing how in the US when you fit a tow hitch or towbar as we call it in Australia. If the fuel tank can't drop out like it was designed to, in Australia if you used an American style tow hitch was here all companies would be up for huge fines and cars couldn't be in any state or territory here.
Hi Dylan, great video as always! I was wondering if you would consider selling any of the parts off of the body of the Cordoba? I have a 1977 which is pretty much identical and need a few parts. It's really hard finding anything for these cars as most went to the crusher or ended up in derbys long ago. I am trying to preserve mine. Thanks. Will
Your protege learned learned something new and you harvested vital components for the next project 😊
good job.deffintly have him install it jn somthing and get it running .great leaning experience .
its funny seeing this car. when i was in shop class in high school way way long ago i learned how to do drum brakes on one of these.
At this point in time you just need to build a dirt track in that field. Now that would be cool.
Here for a moment i thought Briar had swallowed a squeeker , then you put the camera on the dog , whos a good puppy now !!
Looks Like The Kid Has A Lot Of Talent Keep Going Buddy

Bryar is no longer a rookie. Now he’s an apprentice.👍🏻👍🏻
I think it's great that you are teaching that young man something he will carry with him the rest of his life and learn even more through the years you are awesome God bless you and yours
