That sounds cool

I remember Lynx engineering I had them do some modifications on my r/t charger . They did some great work there. and had some great stuff for the time Just can't remember exactly where in Sydney they were then.

@@badboypete100 they were on Parramatta road. We used to build the Lynx Junior race cars, sold Dellorto carbys and Holley equipment plus we had two engine dynos that could be programmed for any race track in the country to see how the engine performed. John Bruderlen owned the company but it has been closed for some time now and he retired to the central coast but still sells a lot of gear from there.

Lynx were the holy grail of performance parts , brings back memories.....

@@garycorbin2789 they certainly were. We carried all the top names such as Holley, Edelbrock, Mallory, Wise, Richmond Gear, Delorto. I usually sold the whole shipment of Richmond Gear 9” Ford crown wheels and pinions to Alan Moffat down in Victoria when he was building arguably the best abs fastest Sierras in the world. He was such a gentleman. I always got a 6pack of wine and a thank you card from him with every shipment I sent him.

Yes he’s great thank you

Yes!!!

Thank you

Thank you so much

❤

And 2 girls that won't let Ralphie get away with anything.

@@danbytp Yeah, let's see that kid study Mechanical Engineering. He would be awesome in Detroit. :)

@@TheLawrenceWade You got that right.Look at the education he's getting right now! Ralphie knows more than some mechanics today.

That’s awesome

@luckylarry dang I’m about to buy a 65 dart for a steal price rolling shell but worth it!

Thank you

Thank you I am blessed

Yes 👍

And an honest mechanic at that

He will probably grow up to be an actual car guy . Simple ASE mechanic jobs are boring .

@@HowardJrFord Well, I've got a couple of close relatives that have made a pretty good living out of being a boring ASE Mechanic!!!

Yes thank you

Thank you for watching

Thank you I agree

You got it

Ok thank you

Thank you I appreciate it

Thank you really appreciate it

His first attempts had a mix of marvel and fuel

I’m glad your enjoying it thanks for watching

That’s awesome

Thank you

low compression on a long stored engine is not catastrophic, it can be caused by stuck rings or carbon debris that fallen on the seat area and they will escape at the starting of the engine, run it for 1 hour at half RPM and redo the compression test, the change will be important. I overhauled MOpar engines of that vintage and never I had broken rings, the problem was the oil control ring that was plugged by oil and combustion residues. The slant is an unkillable engine, much better than GM abd Ford counterpart ( except the 240 and 300 CID serie)

@@jacquespoirier9071 yes, absolutely. if an engine sat for 30 years, it's normal that the rings are stuck. when he first turned it over by hand, it looked too easy already. yes, a second compression test after some runtime would be interesting...

Thank you

Thank you

Once again good job guys! I live in bunnell Florida, daddy used to make sure we always had drinks and snacks when we went speck fishing, or any time out on the boat, he would always have beenie Weenies, potted meat, sardines, and Vienna sausage, he would always have! But momma would always make us lunch, so 1 day I asked daddy why he does that when momma makes lunch for us, he said never go anywhere especially a boat, without plenty of canned food son, im in my 50s now and always have 10 can's of viennas, on board at all times!

Thank you

Lisa, I drove big trucks for over 43 years, in the winter many times they were hard to start. More than once our mechanic would put on a battery charger and wait. After 2 hours of messing around, I said why don't we air it up, and pull start it? He said I don't think that will work. I said we'll what we're doing now isn't either. So we aired it up ( needs air to release the brakes) pulled it about 100 feet, and it started. Over my career I had pulled started many trucks, I carried a chain with me all the time, a few times I had someone else pull my truck to get it started. That's the advantage of a manual transmission. Good post ma'am

Man that would be nice

Ok thank you

@@Sleeperdude ... I think maybe Dad needs to read and reply to Rick Currie's message above, son ... 🤗 ...

Thank you I am blessed

Thank you

I hope so, that’s too bad

Yes thank you

Yes he did

Thank you

Thank you

Wish you lived close to my area, I have a few vehicles I would love to get going again but my health the last couple of years hasn’t allowed me too. Maybe someday!

Thank you

Awesome thank you

Yeah I have done that before

Thank you for watching

Yes thank you

Awesome thank you

Alan, I had a 65 Dart with the 170, and 3 speed manual. The fuel pump went out dumped a bunch of gas in the oil. I wound up doing a complete rebuild on it. Bored .030, rebuilt rods, milled the head, and top of block, all new valve springs. 3 angle valve job when I put it back together, I got 18 MPG around town and 27 MPG on highway only running top speed of 65. I had another project and needed money to finish it so I sold the Dart wish I never did that, but I may find another one someday.

Have a 225 in a Dodge 3/4 ton POWER WAGON indestructible engine

Thank you

Yes thank you

Yeah neat little car

My Dad had a 1965 Plymouth Valiant with the slant six. The engine was bulletproof, the rear end, not so much...

I hope so

Yes thank you

I love samurais I have had 2 of them

Thank you

It was gettin it

Thank you

Chrysler's starter was a gear reduction unit , and it came out in 1962 . It was superior to direct drive units used by other automakers , and the starters used on all modern cars are based on chrysler's design . All automakers started using it by the early 200's .

Nice

Yeah he does pretty good for a little feller

Ok thank you

Thing to do w one sitting that long would be to tow it. It will fire right up.

Plug wires prob shot...

Good plan

@@Sleeperdude: It amazes me how some folks will take an old 1936 International that has been sitting in the SWAMP for the last 73 years and think that they can just use that ancient, rusted-out starter "AS IS!!!" ( foolishly putting 12 volts of electricity to it!!! The fact that they still spin so well "initially" tells you that they really made some damn good stuff, back in the day!!! But if that machine has been rusting ( in the DIRT!!! ) since "The Wizard of Oz" first hit the big screen, you'd have to be certifiably INSANE to put 12 volts of electricity to it!!! But I see fools make that mistake ALL. THE. TIME. !!! ) ALL of those old starters must be taken apart and be COMPLETELY rebuilt, or you will burn those poor suckers right up!!! All the wires are rusted, the GEARS are all rusted, the bearings are probably rusted and in DESPERATE need of SERIOUS lubrication, and if there is any way to restore the "windings", you'll probably have to do that, too. And don't forget all those ancient and badly cracked rubber washers, fittings and insulation rings!!! Run one of those ancient old starters on your work-bench "AS IS", and you will get to watch as streams of rust and sparks fly off of it ( not to mention bits and pieces of cracked rubber parts ) Run it any LONGER, and you'll probably get to watch bits and pieces of the BEARINGS go flying all over the place!!! Once rebuilt, however, those old "powerhouses" can be almost as good as NEW. 😉

Thank you . Yes that’s hilarious

Thank you.

Yeah your probably right

Thank you I am blessed

Thank you I appreciate it

Yes maybe soon

That would keep us from hollering at our screens...you know more than me but I think if you would've closed that butterfly choke it would've started much sooner...just an observation buddy. Glad you got it running...congrats!!!

Thank you

It looked to me like a Mopar Road wheel.
