This was a ton of fun! Neat old car with a very unique suspension.

What a stunner of a car that is. I'd love to see it in full working order. Keep it up !

[rweckert]

Looking forward to the ongoing result. What a beautiful saver, a true keeper of classic proportions.

Watching this car driving down the road is amazing

[thomasnichols]

Please post more videos on this car as you work on it. Definitely worth saving!!

I like that you placed the front where it could watch you work. Very thoughtful.

The first car my grandmother ever bought was a 1937 Chevy Deluxe. She bought it used in 1948 for 185 dollars. She's told me many times that if she would've known that her grandson was going to be into old cars she would've kept it and gave it to me when I turned 18.

I have a much greater appreciation for Vice Grip Garage!!!

[johnjwedrall]

I like that you save these timeless cars. Unlike a popular shop that is fixated on cutting them up to their own liking. Thank you and appreciate your channel 😊 👍

Those old cars are awesome. It’s a shame more of them didn’t survive. Love it

I had a '37 Buick Opera Coupe straight-8. You could build a Corolla with the steel from the front fenders. Torque like a dump truck.

Entertaining but the MT rescues feel a lot more staged then the real VGG rescues do.

My father, grandfather and greatgrandfather all drove Chevrolets. Love those cars and the beautiful memories.

Boy oh boy you have really hit the big time since I started watching you.

[danielfoster]

Very cool stuff! I saved one of these from the crusher about 7 years ago, would love to see a follow up video of this one!

Kind of amazing the water pump was on hand, the grass was cut and no "bare spot" underneath

[andrewmacdonald]

25 years standing? I've not seen an engine that clean after sitting out in the open for 2.5 decades..

I love those old cars. They had all the style back then.

[huskycr]

It's a miracle that thing even runs, let alone drive down the highway.

Maybe fewer accidents back then had something to do with the fact that there’s no cup holders and the common use of cell phones was 80 years in the future. Notice how the front of the crankshaft still has provision for a hand crank.
