Enjoyed your videos. I have two 56 Oldsmobile cars that I have been working for the past 10 years. My best advice to you is to roll that one out back and use it as a parts car. I paid $600 for a parts car that had half the rust as your car. Get yourself a much better car with title and a lot less rust to restore for a starting point. You might have to pay 5 to $10K for a nice car needing lots of work but you can save thousands of hours. Look for one with a lot less rust and frame to body mounts that are not rusted away.

Am also getting started on a 1956 olds. So far everything you have done has been a great help. I hope all is well and the videos continue. Thank you!!

I just found/watched this series- bummed it ceased, I hope it was an executive descision and all is well. Subbed and belled so come on back if you want to tinker, spit or shoot the shit.

Miles Brandon says:

Two guys stole a calendar the other day, they got six months each.

Michael Barry says:

42:30 That's a cool hay hook, but you're going to eventually regret mounting it on the wall less than six feet from the floor.

CoyoteJim, Perseverence is thy middle name. I am learning! My 324 is running, but this all applies to me, my stuff, and my situation! Thanks! BTW, I got my fuel/vacuum pump rebuild kit from Fusick Automotive in Connecticut.
