hey welcome back to vice-grip garage I've gotten seventeen point two nine three repeating million requests for an update on the old Cadillac back here that guy just pulled out of a field not too long ago so I'm gonna go on ahead and give you one today and then stay tuned because I'm gonna also dial e in to kind of what we're thinking we're gonna do with the old girl I got the fuel system fixed on it so we'll fire it up today and then we're also gonna pressure wash it for the first time in about 20 years which should be more satisfying at a time I saw a predator 2 in theaters [Music] [Applause] [Music] well we haven't done much of anything to the old girl we're hoping to film everything for you guys I did buy one of these atmosphere 9000 machines off Amazon everyone was suggesting using that now it's got the swamp smell out of here and it smells like a porta potty from Woodstock in July and also my hair stick up on my arm when I bring it into the cabin here so I think there's something nuclear going on in there but other than that it's just been sitting here I did have to fix the fuel system because what happened was all of the fuel that wasn't being used was being pumped back to the tank and the tank actually overfilled and it was dumping out all over my driveway over here yeah and well it stripped off about 97% of my asphalt which that's that seems fine that's okay got a little bit of a dent here but I think the guy can snip that out and then I got a sand bail emblem to fix there with other than that there's really no dents the only rust on the body really is the bottom of each fender and I think I could patch them up or open anyway nothing wrong with the hood the chrome is absolutely beautiful on this thing really good shape same exact fender here and I hope to get the wand up underneath on the frame you know so you can see what that looks like just a tiny bit of rust here I can easily fix that I can bring this back around I still got though over at the shop we'll take care of that you got a lens there to fix but we hope to get all this barnacle stuff off here which I think we can do pretty easy and I'm really excited to see if I can clean this top up you can see the difference here but mantua's dries I got to be really careful now I'm going to show you a trick we'll get this surface rust off as well hopefully I think we can I don't know pretty sure I could live in this thing and the taxes would be alright man it is hotter than a stolen set at 24 is out and I ain't kidding yeah anyhoo I already fired it up this morning and it did pretty good but let's see what it has to say now I just can't believe these work but I guess I got to them watching them well I think a guy's gonna pressure wash on her and then Jessica and the kids want to help so after that we'll get out the buckets in the soap a little soap her down good give her you know the old hand and that ought to bring some shine back honor rents are off and then we'll do another walk around and see if we find some more damage or dance and stuff like that but I just I hope not [Music] [Music] [Applause] guy had to run a little test run here cuz I just couldn't wait anymore look at this difference that is nuts and I'd see we uncovered this little dent over here and you can't see that when everything looks like the Titanic you know but if the rest of the car comes out like that trunk that's gonna be amazing probably the worst part hoods kind of comparable but not near as bad as the trunk back here and this is already drying and she's still got some shine left on her so this should polish up pretty easy so now I'm actually going to take the soap and just kind of soak the whole rig down here let it soak for a couple minutes and then I'll start pressure washing again [Applause] [Music] [Music] well so far guys really impressed I'm gonna have to take it easy on the top dog she started to come apart on me and I should probably get some real cleaner and conditioner up there because right now I'm just using some soap got a found in the mechanical room from the late 80s and that's just fine down here but I kind of want to kind of save on this as much as possible so I'm gonna forego all the rest of the top let's start digging into the rest of the unit here [Music] [Music] [Music] well this is looking cleaner than my library card what a difference looking great so far and again here it a little bit when we start hand washing I'm going to show you how we can get most of the surface rust off not all of it but you know probably 72.4% that quarter panels coming out I'm going to finish the hood and it'll start working my way down the sides here [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Applause] just on Bradley are out here to help there's so much real estate guy needs a water canteen walk around or so I can use all the help and Jessica's going to start with the hood here Bailey's gonna start with the back and then I'll get up on top because jessica has t-rex arms and can't reach and we'll just keep working our way down and then once we get her soaked up pretty good I'll start hitting the rough spots we got it all wash down Jessica started it getting some of the rust off the back and this trick works on the chrome and stainless and all this stuff too and I've been doing this for I don't know 15 years works really good its quad zero zero zero zero zero steel all with the salt felt right thinner and you just watch it doesn't take much but you got to be very careful you don't want to go too far and it'll get a lot of this rust off you can see over here she's already worked that out of there works really good with lacquer paint and single stage for enamel paint not so good around base clear because you're just gonna eat right through the clear let me show you the chrome up front here a little more light on ER you know um nope I guess it doesn't Oh over here yeah there we go see how it's kind of dull and it's got a bunch of stuff on it just hit it with this and I'll come back to it after I rinse it off but this is gonna look brand new - seventeen days well we got her all licked up I think we'll stop here I'm sure we're gonna wash it again so did you notice any new dents on it she's pretty dang straight nothing in the hood might not even take in any ale damaged or nothing which is crazy I think what saved it is it was under a tarp for a lot of those years says the gal I got it from look at this Chrome it's just in amazing shape there's a little scuffle over here might have gotten into a bumper tickle over there at Walgreens but other than that maybe the same on the other side yep I don't blame him I mean she's a double-wide it's kind of hard to park but it looks way way better might be nice enough as it is to put a new top on her I don't know you guys bleep blooper down there in the comments otherwise let me know if you got a remedy for this up here baby oil or something else crazy maybe we'll try to you know bring her back around it's not quite sure all that rust came out of here this is a really good stage to come in and we might buffa late on it do some other stuff all this surface rust came off for the most part and get in here with the whirly woo or a tsunami shine or 3000 this stuff will come out door cells are pretty decent I think I gotta roll the windows down she got a little steamy in there when I hit the insides not even gonna hurt it she's already had 58 metric tons of water inside so a little bit from the pressure washer ain't gonna do much the glass and this thing too is just it's all good I don't even think there's a rock chip of this thing I can't believe it wasn't shot out or broken from rocks anything like that this is neat they're down the center you just don't see that anymore so if you're familiar with the channel I usually handle under the bonnet and kind of the exhaust noise shooting out the rest of the stuff Jessica takes care of the rest she's dodging a hornet looks like maybe not little rascal you just get out of here huh anyway what's the plans for the interior we're gonna rip off his feet for sure rip up the carpet check to see if there's any rust or how much rust is underneath your carpet yeah for sure no carpet leave the seats just clean them up I mean I don't think there's a single pair to be honest maybe a pressure washing or something yeah yeah I definitely even those carpet is nice and black I just she's it's so the rest of it just clean it up wipe or down maybe we could use some spray away stuff maybe pull that down and paint it something visors you're in good shape I haven't really sat and just you know breathe there and that's true Oh seat belt for later all right well as far as the engine goes I think for the first time am i deign to life I might just leave it alone because it just it works really well I was just this much considering maybe putting Holley fuel injection on it like a sniper kit or something but you already just breeze on a key and it starts so again you guys let me know what you think I definitely want to replace there's two mufflers on this there's one that's just blown out down there and then there's one that I don't know what this one has grandma Agnes muffler it just it doesn't you can't hear it I don't like that maybe some chips and a tip she's only got the single exit on her over here maybe we bring out some duels you guys can let me know on that and then I'm definitely gonna buff on it I think in the future and then we'll wait and see on the top I want to hear what you guys think thank you guys so much for watching if you want anyway script Dhiraj merchandise head on over to vice-grip verochka snip up one of them kappa laters as they are
