Bringing home the 1953 Chevy Sedan.

all right so we're all loaded up hopefully we've forgotten fewer things than we normally do we've got 350 miles to go to pick up a 53 Chevy two-door sedan so start with another project hopefully another beautiful day [Music] [Music] [Music] thank you [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] all right so we found the latest treasure so I guess we should take a little walk around and get the kids opinion of it should be a little hook underneath there kind of cool Treasures in here I think we're missing something right this range here but that's okay we got something cooler to put in it looks like we're going to cook a transmission up before we can move him a little tire problem it's flat on the bottom Top's good bottom not so much all right is it open hey Treasures no we might need that later you don't know how this is gonna go what do you think what do you think what's it smell like nothing no smell oh that's unfortunate so bored yeah well that'll be later so a little bit later on here class is good fuel tank checks present all right I think what we're gonna do guys before we trip over everything let's uh that's gonna be another trick for another day I didn't ask him if he had any keys for it in the ignition by chance so all right guys so I think what we're gonna do is let's see if we can get these tires to hold air and drag it forward if they won't hold air enough to load on a trailer then we'll put some of those on that we brought with us glass over there how are we supposed to even pull it out without popping tires I got Tricks all right all right Cody we need to find somebody what does that look like it's taking air it's like really really low yeah but if it's starting to come up oh looks like it I don't think I'm gonna hold you back [Music] [Music] coordinates well you got it what if it's just stuck in the dirt let me reach past you ah they smell like corn nuts me grapple oh you might just have to try to pull it up out of its hole so I can get underneath it is [Music] back okay let's get a little less hammer in cool spelling problems [Music] [Music] [Music] I'm gonna drop it down [Music] look at this project [Music] looking for you so we tried to air up the tires as well as we could try to see if we could make it roll um in the Transmissions kind of down wedge with the ground so at this point we're going to see if we can try to pull it forward and turn it out of the hole too we can't get to the other rear tires and we found a new friend ly alive only the schools [Music] [Music] all right so when we're pulling it out we found that the rear brakes are free it'll roll on the rear end so we're gonna drag Jack the front up and see if I can get the front brakes loose because it'd be a lot easier to pull onto the trailer and then we do have four rollers and I think we're gonna put on it just so we can have adequate clearance so we don't um High Center going up on the trailer anything to see what I did here can you do that on the other side there's a brace that comes out to the frame just find something to put it under a similar plate is it all rotted or what yeah it might just oh wow that was pretty gross uh put underneath the frame that goes from the front to the back turn it sideways done let's go ahead and take this wheel off all right be careful yes thank you yesterday so yeah that's a brake spoon so there's a little slot in the back of this hub Frozen which it is foreign 's different these may not come free do you want to try your free all right at least one front tire or something thank you [Applause] oh there she goes here we go more violence what you're bullying it's gonna blow you back it's karma it'll be just fine it likes it he wants it he said let me meet my new friend Pete [Music] for y'all please normally you wouldn't want to soak the pads if you ever want to reuse them but we're gonna go disc so your klitish dude [Applause] success you gotta do it again though no I don't I'm good foreign so here I'll get the tire on yeah let's put the new tire up thank you thank you you do the next one okay struggle is real do a star pattern yeah Birds does it turn good grace oh beautiful like brand new like butter Okay so we've got one corner freed up and a new tire on it we'll go ahead and repeat on the other side I'm not sure what I'm not gonna promise any specific item s three bolts okay inside you can't hit the lugs outside okay here ready [Applause] go ahead [Applause] good Ness you changed some tone instead of Break Free good yeah if you come hold the pressure on this when I get it push it down watch out for the dog poop you put your hand right into it [Applause] close though there's some freshness I know I kicked it away from the carpet foreign [Music] Good Harbor Freight ones that's the only ones in there the bearings yeah Frank shoes no the shoes are in there and they rust to the drum when it sits that's what all the junk is Chris you should move man this one just goes Force we'll put that wheel on move on because I got one to steer now this will only be one dragon so that'll help all right yeah go ahead put it out bud I need help oh I'm not strong enough good morning come on put the bolts on [Music] when I get one wrenched you can let go okay back it up and then we're gonna take the strap probably hook in like where they have these ropes and back up all right so next problem let's get the transmission jacked up hold on a minute bud uh dipstick tube is behind there here's that bar at [Music] oh you go ahead and jack it up is that coming clear Trish keep going buddy just keep going keep going keep going you're doing great keep going two more pumps stop there all right now we gotta get the strap done your side again we're losing it your side again keep going okay it's just hanging on by here can you get it around something all right I think we're good okay okay Cody let's Jack down and see what happens perfect all right I'm gonna put the front end on the ground Jack it up get the stands out put the rear tires on and then the next struggle ensues go ahead buddy no it won't move you must have the switch halfway between oh yeah [Music] okay you got them off pop up there's bugs under there throw me another tire from the Black Lagoon okay I need a tire please drive it in [Music] here Cody I'm tired [Applause] by the way bud [Applause] there you go good news is I found the radiator it's in the trunk how do you know it's in the trunk because you can see all the way through the back seat into the trunk all right so we managed to get three wheels turning got the brake drums uh loosened up on them and we got four good Rolling Tires on it so we're gonna have just one front tire that'll skid not going to bore you with an hour worth of ratcheting but we're gonna get a winch pull winch cable pulled on it and I'm just going to run some Dawn dish soap up the deck so that way that one tire that skids will just work its way along the wood pretty easily so enjoy some gratuitous shots of me sweating heavily yeah yeah so our fourth Tire decided was going to roll with a little bit of mechanical advantage here so we now have four tires rolling so no soap needed nothing just a lot of uh holes of the company oh hold on just use one chain to remove the long one foreign passenger very accessible [Music] oh stop all right after about three and a half gallons of sweat we've got it on strapped down and ready for the return trip don't forget get four extra showers apparently there's a food water and showers that have been requested at this point we are East River South Dakota and Platte and it's a bit hot and humid and I've already sweated through one shirt so all right so we made it back it turned into a pretty long day it's about a little over 500 miles total and on the way back we realized that the kids have never been to Wall Drugs so we stopped and walked around and and got down there ended up having to beat the front brake drums loose the shoes were arrested too the drums got rollers on the car got it pulled up on and it was extremely hot and humid it was over 90 degrees and it was in the eastern part of South Dakota so very very humid so we're really happy to be home of course it's about 90 degrees out here again today and hopefully the wind isn't creating too many issues in the background but on the next video I guess you guys will see we're going to start doing the cleaned clean out and disassembly of the car
