Ill to tour
I would like to see the new shop in 'before' mode, then a full tour of the finished project. Given the choice of engines: I would look into restoring the original one or at least finding one just like it.
Great job,, you are one of few guys cleaning cars that wash the engine 👍🏽👍🏽👊🏽👊🏽🏆🏆
I would put an LS3 in it. Nice transformation. Keep banging it out. 😎👍🏻
Grats on the new shop! Been great watching you guys grow over the years! I bet having your own place to work out of feels amazing! Keep up the great work!
fridays are complete when WD videos are loaded.... just a quick question: there are probably hundreds of detailing videos (on YT), but you guys are the top three for me, one thing ive notice ( and yes you guys are guilty of it too...lol), during the detailing process you mention how long the job took....be it 8hrs or 16 hrs, think the shortest being 4hrs, at what point do reach in the process where you say "i should take a break"?
I'm NOT a professional, but I detail my own car and I take about 5/6 hours! I do the interior, then I take a brake and then return for the "exterior job"
I would LOVE to see your new shop!!! It's good to see good people "growing"!!! Congrats!!!
Such a beautiful car. Loved every minute of this detail. Great job as always, guys!
I know I'd love to see a full tour! I thought that was an interesting location for a detail shop in a parking garage. Did you have any difficulties logistically by doing that? And I'm interested to know if you got to customize the new shop at all. Really great to see your channel growing and absolutely loving the style and flair you put on your work and the videos!
Hey guys I've been watching Y'all's videos for a while. Congratulations on the new shop and working hard to grow your business. I look forward to seeing Y'all's growth.
I'd love to see a tour! Before, during and after. I think it's really fun to see the remodeling of a shop like this.
My dad passed last year. Left me his '74 Corvette. The original engine had bad compression, so he did a similar year 350 4 bolt main block, 383 stroker setup, slightly higher compression pistons, a Edelbrock Performer Cam and Intake, then factory carb adjusted for displacement and cam change. Maybe only makes like 50+ more hp/tq but still fun. Just needs better rear mono lead setup.
Now that it is clean (again), will it be kept nice or will it stand outside again, not being fixed&used/taken care? Great work!! 👍
You should also try washing a 1967 corvair Monza convertible
Absolutely gorgeous! Both the car and the detail! I did have a chuckle at the Saturn floor mats though.
Congrats on the new shop. Let's see a video on it when it is finished. Car came out showroom great work!
Sure! I’d like to see a tour of your new shop, if you’re up to giving us a tour! I hope your new shop makes your auto detailing lives easier, too.
Really nice job Guys on the classic corvette. Congrats in the new shop.
Would love too see a full tour of new shop. Congrats btw o the new digs!!
Congrats on your new space guys! Of course we'd like to see it!
Love to see your shop when its finished.
Yes old and new shop tour please and thank you.
Would love to see a tour of the new shop and that beautiful Stingray came out beautiful great job
All the best with the new shop you deserve the best for your great job
finally the return of cakeboss and wonder boy!
Yes, full shop tour!
Came out really well. Love the shine.
Yes to a shop tour!
always enjoy watching ur videos guys keep up the awesome job... much love from australia.. im always in discord too :) can u guys do an exotic car next time maybe??
If the engine miles arent bad, I am 90% sure I could get it to turn over. Often a car just sitting can cause it to seize up. The rings get stuck due to moisture. I've seen cars sitting for 30 years turn over after soaking down the cylinders for a day.
A tour of the new shop would be appreciated.
Yes to the shop tour. As for the engine, if it is less expensive to just drop in a new/rebuilt engine that fits rather than do a rebuild on the existing one that is the route that should be taken. As for a replacement, not smart enough about the subject to offer any suggestion. LOL Back in the day, had an friend who had a stingray and offered me a ride. You could tell he was proud of it, but it road like a dang lumber wagon over a rough road. I kept my mouth shut about it and complimented him on the car. Made me vow not to be so wowed by a two seat lumber wagon, This one is a bute considering the unusual color that shines like new dime. Great work and amazed at how well the paint job looked after you were done with it. Bravo....more, more!
want another old corvette? My grandpa has a c2 that's been sitting in his garage for probably 25 years and it's never going to drive again without a full rebuild but it would be fun to detail. We'd have to uncover it from all the boxes and carpets and other garage junk though 🤣
the paint is EXTREMELY oxidized too
If you’re near cleveland, ohio, dm us on instagram!
Yes I’d love to see a full tour!
The Paint results are probably the BEST ive seen un my entire Life.
Solid clean bro ❤️❤️❤️
The result was fantastic!!!
😲😲😲😲 the paint looks sooooooo good!!! 😄
You should contact Derek from Vice Grip Garage to get that engine running in the Corvette. He does that kind of stuff all the time.
Yes, full tour please!!
Félicitations, je m'inspire beaucoup de vos vidéos. Merci
I was wondering if it wouldn't be more beneficial for the car to get ceramic coated, so that if it does go into storage again, it won't have to be paint corrected once more, from a preservation stand point live the videos and congrats n the new studio!!
excellent transformation 👍
My dad had a 78 Stingray Powder Blue.. Only a few made, so this made me VERY nostalgic to say the least!!!
It would nice to see your new shop/garage 😀😀
I think I've seen this video 3 or 4 times now (I watch many, so forget sometimes), but it is still good every time. No wonder part 1 (and the hoarder car) were your homerun video views; just good content. Question: do you wash the backs of the car mats? You never show it. I don't in my cars, but I imagine a grossmobile like the barn finds would warrant it (with rat pee and all that). I did like how you hung the mats so they drain as washed, but then saw the video with the old mat that ripped. I see you don't make the same mistake twice on these carpets; that's just you stepping up your game. Kudos. C3 is my fav vette. the shop has got to be done by now, eh? you should franchise.
By the way an awesome video and as a Corvette owner I can tell you that C3 Corvettes carpets have a tendency to degrade over time to the point where it has to be changed that's why a lot of aftermarket companies sell replacement carpets!
Definitely would replace the engine with a F1X Pro-Charged 427 Big Block 🔥
Hi there..yes, please provide a tour of your new shop when it it is finished..thanks.
Great job. I did see the first one on this car.
Very very nice job. Well done.
Would love to see a tour including the products and tools you guys use
Awesome results would so enjoy buying a vehicle you have cleaned up as you are aware of and respect the cars age.
I would love to see a full shop tour!
As for an upgrade on the engine, have an Edelbrock Crate Engine 350 installed with upgraded EFI. My 1972 c3 corvette stingray I just bought over a month ago has an Edelbrock Crate Engine 350 installed with EFI. Works great!
a nice lil LS never hurt anyone 😁
she is a beautiful car i love the colour, you guys know your stuff exellent job
Definitely want to see the new shop
Would love a full tour of the new shop!
Yes I would like to see a tour of your new place
Yes I would like to see your new shop
Yes full garage tour 👍
The color is beautiful
This car deserves a restoration.
A shop tour would be great!
Fantastica. Stupenda!!!!
I'd get the original engine rebuilt.I had a 72 L48 .They are great engines
I think a shop tour would be in order. :) As for the engine, it would probably break loose if you pulled the plugs and soaked the cylinders in a mix of Marvel Mystery Oil and WD-40 for a couple of day. The purists out there will hate this next comment, but I'd convert it to an Electric if it did need to have the engine swapped out.
No, you wouldn’t. People who casually mention converting something to electric would never lmao
Yes !!!!! Please do a shop video
And just curious. Are you guys friends with any fellow KZhead detailers .. just curious as I find it very interesting if any detailers are friends … thank you…. And keep up the good work
What year was that Buick you were working on that Buick was really cool.
Put an LS 2 or 3 in it cheap at the junkyard pull it out a van or pickup and get a wiring harness from wiring specialties in Connecticut.
yes i would like a tour of the new shop
Nice shop guys. Do you use a paint sealant?
I would love to see a tour of your shop.I would rebuild the original motor. With a high performance cam.but not to radical. Just to make it more fun to drive.
Yes, I'd like to see a full tour of it
Three numbers, 455. But, try to unstick the engine via pouring diesel, marvel mystery oil, or atf into the cylinders for about a month and try (during that month) multiple times to turn it over by hand or drill. 👌
Do a before and after with the shop and definitely a tour
Send motor to hagerty garage. they will make it like brand new. I am 100% sure. 😊
Awesome color
Regarding the engine, I would replace the stock 350 CID with a new modified 350 crate motor. I would keep the automatic transmission.
That cover right there, I believe that is where the battery is, my brother had a 79 Corvette, that's how I know that.
I would rebuild the if numbers matching and maybe bump it a little bit
yessir give us a tour
Personally would rebuild the motor if its a matching motor , do a cam and enjoy it
Engine could probably be saved, but if I was to replace it I'd go with a 383 sbc with an aftermarket holley fuel injection setup for daily drive ability
Perfect 👌🇲🇰
Will you ever get into wrapping cars?
I wanna see a shop tour.
What foam cannon do you use?
wow. imagine having something super nice that you don't deserve & you let it go to shit, then someone treats it as it deserves for you for free, then you let it go immediately to shit again. what a time to be alive.
Watch some vice grip garage may be able to unlock that engine
I would Like To See The original Motor full rebuild or replaced with the Same engine Type , cause Original Classic Cars die . Everyone does biger Motor, engine Swaps or what Not ! Nobody does rebuilds or restorations anymore. Thank and apreciate Your Work . Kind regards From Germany 🙏✌️
Sheeesh I wish I was in your state or you guys were in mine 😩
Ofc we need a full shop tour lmao
why r u guys not cleaning the under chassis?or not just shown in the video? most of the detailing videos i saw here in youtube, they are showing how they pressure washed it. some are attaching their pressure hose to a small handle with wheels (like roller) and pass it under..
شي رائع وجميل
replace the enjun with a four -twenny-sebin... :D
RB26 extremely honest opinion!!
I would put a crate engine in it, probably a 425 or a 454 and upgrade around that.
Nice JOB...Rebuild the Engine in it
