 I should bear 1,000 here Today well, we got old blue the old my old camera. I Got it out here because I'm under the car as you can see And I don't want to knock over a thousand dollar camera But the main reason is a x-53 Sony will not fit under here. So I got old blue We're gonna take these bolts out here there should be yeah, there's one up here on top and there's these two We'll take these out so I can move the header around so we can see if we can fix that uh Cross threaded bolt hole It's not stripped but it has been cross threaded the bolt's not stuck. It's not broke off or anything like that So hopefully I can get a tap in there and clean it up because Monday We should have our gaskets our header gaskets in and Our collector gaskets. We also got new bolts coming with them. So there's a whole pack. They're cheap or like 18 bucks So I don't look for them to last a real long time, but So anyway, let's go ahead and let's start taking this off The top one's gonna be a pain It's looks like it's a 9 16. So these these two are half inch so these ones don't spin either so This could be It could be a pain once I get this header bolted back on to line these up with the header we'll have to see Because you should always bolt your header bolts up first because if you just get them started in here You're down here pulling on this you can break you can snap them bolts off or even pull them out of the holes or bend them and they don't want to work right so You get the idea. I'm gonna get this last bolt out. Gotta go get a couple short wrenches Maybe a ratchet. I don't know and then I'll meet you up top All right It's off I wouldn't say it was about do Yep, it's crumbling falling apart in my hand. All right Now we're gonna head up top. Okay guys, so That's the hole that was cross threaded. That's a little grease around there. Oops. Sorry That's a little grease around there I got my Taps that out, but I didn't need it because Let's see if I can hold you and do this here It was only cross threaded on like the first or second thread And I took a regular header bolt and I stuck it in here There it is. Whoops. This tire is hot And I'm dropping tools. Okay. There it is So we got lucky on that so now I'm waiting for is the gasket set and the new bolts So that's that. Um I could probably pull this wheel off of here. See this doesn't want to turn I suspect that being the culprit I'm not too worried about the rust on the uh On the rotor, you know, that'll clean itself off because it's not really super bad, but So maybe I'll get my uh, maybe let's pull this wheel off And let's see what's going on with this thing. I'm not sure about the other side Because I only got this side jacked up. See I got a jack stand up front And I got a jack stand on bottom down there It was funny because Let me hold the camera straight. There it is Uh Bruno always likes to come out Sit in the vet walk around the vet And uh He comes trotting out here like he always does and you know how when a dog sees something That might spook him or start on them. They stop real quick He's seen the vet up like that There it is and he stopped real quick and he turned around and he looked at me I said, it's okay, buddy. He looked at the vet and he turned around and looked at me I said, it's okay, buddy. And he went back in the house He's like, I don't want no part of that whatever's going on there. He looked at me like dad The Corvette fainted All right Let's go ahead and let's pull this wheel off of here And uh See what's going on with that. I think I'm going to go ahead and change cameras now Okay guys, let's go ahead and pull this wheel off of here It's got these dummy caps on I've already loosened them And then the these these actually screw on to the lug net itself And they got locks on them. So hopefully there is The key to it In the car and If not This is going to be a big pain Thank you You got a set screw in it wasn't even tightened All right, well Let me see if I can find the key for that that one right there all right Let me find a key for that guys Okay guys, I found the little key. This is what it looks like here This is the male side. It's got the corresponding female side in there And there's only one way to go Now Let's pull this wheel off here real quick It's not as hot as it has been It's only a real feel of like 98 So That's good Let's go ahead and get this wheel off of here. These are custom wheels. They're not the originals The originals are really ugly These ain't real bad. They're better than the originals, but I'm old school. I like uh Remember the old SS kraggers and the keystones keystone classics and the old Buick special wheels fortunately I've been able to find a set for this, but They're fine All right, let's pull this off here boy. I hate working around this tire. It looks like it's already exploding the sun now It does have a spare But it's a donut My guess is These fake things on here They're riveting on I mean they look all right, but see that's a fake bleeder There's the real bleeder up here because I got to put a I got to get a clamp on here and squeeze this together I know it's not the wheel bearing because the wheel bearing's moving so Yeah, he uh Riveted them on there. So I'm going to have to let me get a screwdriver. I gotta you know, I got to do what I got to do here Yeah, they look cool from a distance, but They're not uh Yeah Definitely riveted, you know, I mean, yeah, they look better You know They look better than that, but still Wouldn't that be up on top if it was a real bleeder So man, you got a lot of paint on this thing Could be the problem All right, I got to turn the wheel this way and I got to go get my c-clamp then uh we'll try to Squeeze in pistons back together and see if that'll free the wheel up. All right guys. I got this all set up here We're going to try to push these pistons back in Release this one. Let's go down. There's two of them on here There that's the one I just felt it. It was that bottom one So what I'm going to do now So I'm going to go in I'm going to pump up the brake paddle Come out and do this as many times as it takes until it frees up on its own All right guys, I'm going to speed you up through this because it's just putting the wheel on but I will speed you up Let's get this on here uh I went in push brake pedal it stuck again and I compressed it again and then it was fine after that the other side's fine It's not There's nothing wrong with it So let's go ahead and get this back on here Okay guys, that's done Another thing checked off the list um Check the lights last night Everything works backup lights everything Except the brake lights turn signals work which I thought On the 90s they worked on the same circuit as the brake lights, but I'm not positive about that uh I know my 89 suburban not a vet, but it's 89 they worked on the same circuit So I don't think it's fused, but I'll check the fuses. It could be the switch On your foot pedal um Whatever it is. It's nothing major So The headers off like I said, we're waiting on the gasses gaskets. They should come in monday and uh We'll get them put on get the header put back on then We can take it for a little drive It does have a spare under here But it's a donut So I don't know I may end up putting that donut on there Just so we can Maybe go to the gas station and back. It's not that far Just kind of take it for a little drive Tires are going to have to wait because like I said the cheapest one I found the cheapest ones I found was 600 and some dollars for set I think she gave I think she said a thousand dollars for these ones um Which Yeah, they're about 1,100 dollars now Uh for these exact tires We just can't swing that so we've got to wait a little bit for the tires I don't want to put used ones on it, but Uh, like I said, there's 600 and some bucks a little less than 700 I'll get them ordered. We'll get them put on but hopefully next week We can at least pull it out onto the road You know But it'll be moving And then I'm going to pull well, I'm going to push the uh The Toyota up here where the vet is Since it's already pulled in and then we got to get started on the head on that And I'm going to do the valves. I got all new valves. I just got to lap them in But I need to get a cam fork. I didn't mic them But I can feel a little something on that one cam lobe So that is telling me that they're about it, you know, it's due for a cam It's got a half a million miles on Hopefully we can get that spark plug out of there. What's left of it? Maybe Because the center should be open. I maybe drill it and get the the walls of that What's left of the plug get them a little thinner And then back it out Because it would go in but it didn't want to come out So if I flip the head over I might be able to use an easy out And back it out that way Clean up the threads. We'll just have to see what the issue is with it So that's a little later but I mean the car, you know, it's going to need Buffed out real good There is some paint flaking off of it And that's how I know there's been some touch up on it because that's gel coated. That's a fiberglass car It's gel coated paint's not going to flake off like that. So someone Didn't do a real good sanding job and just shot like the the driver's mirrors all cracked up and you know stuff like that The The cover for the cap For the gas cap cover it's going to need respray Little stuff like that that we can do later Right now we want to make sure it's going to be road worthy and if it is then like I said, we'll move forward Um, it is going to need a water pump soon If we start driving it. It's not very expensive. They're not very hard to put on Uh, this kind of heat it would take me a while But back in the day it would take me like 30 minutes and I'd have it done and out the door So anyway guys appreciate you watching. Thanks for watching. Um, I know I didn't do a Onion update this week yet. I will maybe this weekend. It'll be a little late It should be done every Tuesday, but you know Nobody watches that, you know, I I can't You know since since my sister died in April I haven't broke. I don't think any of my videos broke has broken 100 views since then It's stupid 25 30 views here and there, but You get these people Uploading stupid stuff a storm And it's just on loop for 10 or 12 hours And they get millions of views And you know, I can't break 100 views on Working on a Corvette. I mean, yeah, it's only a c4, but still it's 32 years old. It's in pretty d shape That top is original by the way. So that's pretty impressive All right guys with that being said Hope you have a great weekend. It's Friday and uh You know what hang on a second. I think I've earned myself a beer Um I don't know if you guys remember, but We was talking about this on one of my videos And I told monkey, you know, it'll be about two years before we get a running on the road again I'm beating it. How much? I'm beating that two year mark, huh? I'm way ahead of schedule All right guys Come here, monk. So what I was going to say About the onion update there's going to be some missing the ones in the ground. How monkey? No Yeah This is fell over Payback for when I motored flowers down and I thought was weeds, I guess No, it wasn't payback. I just yeah, she wiped out like That whole one row She's moaning a backyard And then I hear the tractor just about stalling out blah, blah, blah, blah I knew what it was. I came out walked over to her Opened the choke and walked away Oh She can't get that choke and throttle break and no never put them both up Start it when it starts put the black one all the way down. Leave the orange one up for some reason She'll put the black one halfway down the orange one halfway down and it's choking out And that's not good on it and I was surging and It was smoking. She's like I didn't see any smoke. I seen dust. That was smoke It was fine Not fine Got the grass cut So anyway, that's the start of our weekend. You know a little more done at a time, huh? Yeah Maybe this weekend, uh, we'll check the brake lights See what's going on with them other than that everything else works, huh? Well, I don't know if the air works the blower motor works But I don't know if the air condition works because when I had it started last time I tried to kick it on It wouldn't kick on so I don't know. Maybe We need to go for a boat ride. Yes, we do All right guys, stay to at least do some fishing or something Yes Stay tuned for more awesome videos that won't break a hundred views We'll see you the next one she bear the myth man legend gone for now Mikey says she's out by y'all getting excited Bruno is oh god. I told him the story He keeps coming out here every five minutes checking on and making sure he's doing his job and getting it ready Yesterday I got in there and he climbed up on my lap. He was ready to go Yeah, he doesn't understand you have to do stuff before we can move it And when he when I'm picking up my tools and stuff he sees that he knows I'm down And he just puts his tail down and like waddles back into the garage like ain't ready yet Once we get that hood down that'll be really cool because he'll just He'll get really excited. I mean the roof down Let's take it down. Oh, yeah top down. I was like, I was just telling him that's the original roof There's nothing wrong with it. You're like soon as we get that fixed. No Well, you said get it done. I mean nothing wrong with roof guys because besides it's not power There's nothing a little bad in it. It's just you know, not like the other car I had. Yeah, it was leaking. Yeah Well The fluid was leaking Yeah So had a broken line That tree not a fell on it. We would have fixed it tree fell in. Yeah if the tree It it when the tree hit the truck and fell in the bed of the truck and flipped out And went over hit the top the roof of the car When it did that It bent the frame. Yeah Those are pain I was going to put the new, you know the cover on at the new top Yeah Which though it's not too bad. It's still about six or eight hours job But when you bend the frame You're talking a whole bunch of work. I didn't want to get into him besides that It busted the side glass and then at the door. I was like hell with it. We're scrapping it be done with it So Yeah, you sold it Yeah, scrapped it. Yeah, I sold it to a scrapper. Yeah Yeah That was a shame Yeah, it was a fun car. I mean it was a fun car But those things happen now we have another fun car Yeah, it's a convertible yeah, because we decided to keep this because You know, we've been wanting a project car and we've been wanting another convertible and we're like Our next project car will just have it a convertible That way we got the best of both worlds. Yeah, then we got the thinking and well Well, we could have sold it a million times for 50 or a hundred bucks So anyway I found this tote in here with all the original stuff for for the engine Because I told her I said if I had all the original stuff I would do where that supercharger would keep it and I found that stuff I said look everything's here to put it back to original She said well, I wouldn't mind keeping I said you want to keep it. I'll I'll build it for you My mother don't care. Yeah, she said well, you guys do with what you want yours So she's gonna sign it over to me. We're gonna put a antique plate on it because it's antique now Yeah, it's an antique so that will be good And uh, we'll use it once in a while here in there. I mean she gets a car anyway, so it's will to her anyhow So But her mom said you guys want to keep it keeping you want to sell it sell it She said it don't matter to me, right? We told her we decided to keep it. She said that's fine. Keep it So now we have our project convertible car There we go We'll have a project car that we'll be able to still drive as we're working on it Providing transmission is not real bad. It does go into gear forward and reverse But that don't mean it's going to shift right or whatever. So we won't know until we drive it. Yeah. All right guys Have a good one. Oh, we're leaving now There are you'll get stuff to do. Oh, okay. They better get to work then All right monkey social stuff now. Bye y'all. Bye guys. See you in the next one
