Guy is hilarious, content is a fun trip.
Bunch of different videos of saving old vehicles and driving them across country home.
You can really get off into the youtube weeds watching these... recommended.

I've watched a bunch of his "Roadworthy Rescues" on motortrend channel. Amazing what he can get done in a field.

From rebuilding the "fuel makeithappener" (carb) to the "sparkolator pipes" (plug wires).

Started watching him couple years ago, great show and watch every week. Always reminds me back in the 90's finding and buying my 2nd Plymouth Barracuda (1973) that had to be hauled home and I got it running. And it ran good for the next 10 years. This guy is hilarious and the wife who normally doesn't watch stuff like this with me enjoys watching. "Well I'll be dipped."

We have watched a number of his videos. I love that he has his kid helping on some of the projects.

 

[Phil502]

I watched almost all of them.

I'm subscribed to his youtube channel. He works on older rigs, while making it hilarious and easy to understand for a hillbilly like myself. I've watched almost everything he has posted. Good stuff.

I watched almost all of them.

Same.. he is a great guy. Very knowledgeable and down to earth.. If it hasn’t happened he was supposed to be in Indy soon for the freedom fest…? Cletus McFarland puts it on They race crown Vic’s they modified.. yep gonna need a wobble pop!

This may be up your alley as well. Warning* You will likely understand more about engines after watching a few of his videos.

A “Lighting whirler” is the distributer.

Feller needs to make sure to get a good batree. and put some ice cube juice in the rad-d-a-tor.

Whenever he sees something a little sketchy on the car he says “I’ll pretend I didn’t see that “

He calls a hammer a “Tonya Harding”

“This interior smells like moldy cheese and sweat socks”

“I wonder what Garth Brooks is doing today?”

"Bring the thunder!' (turn the key and try to start the car) If you get it to start drive it down the road and give it some onions. (floor it!)

Yep I've watched VGG a time or two. Derek sure has a way with words. He’s a helava good mechanic though and knows his stuff.

The Vice Grip Garage has some crazy "git er done" moments.

Some other vehicle "restoration" channels that are a little less focused, but still loads of fun to watch (I'm a simple man), are...
SleeperDude and SleeperDude2

I wish that I would have had this much fun with my family, growing up.
It would have kept me more on the straight and narrow.
