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.

@charlesm7589 Місяць тому

Obviously, you get that kind of thing ahead of time assuming it will need those things. I've seen Derek do that before on youtube. Besides someone had be working on the car recently. Maybe the parts came with the car. As for sitting on the grass. No one said he found the car there. Clearly it was in the previous owner's barn or something. Although there are some gullible people who might have thought the car was sitting there on that lawn for 30 years. But let's not act as if any of it, youtube cable streaming or whatever is actually completely real. It's the entertainment business.

Being in Australia i always find it amazing that you can walk into a parts shop and just pick a part from a 1937 car off the shelf.Try that here and the guy would disappear while spinning in circles.

@leftyo9589 Місяць тому

its awful doubtful he walked into the store and just got parts. using the powers of observation, this car was just parked where it is the day before, has been gone through to see what is needed, and they mail ordered the parts. MT has sort of become the auto worlds CNN, dont believe what they show you.

@CrashAndBurnProductions Місяць тому

They made millions of these engines,so parts are around,and generally fit many different years in whatever era...but your average parts store?...nope, not in stock.. maybe we can get it?..nope..chevy stopped making even the "modern" straight six several decades ago..a 37?assuming that is even a 37 engine of course...you can likely get it but its gonna be a special order item...

@earlbrown 5 днів тому

This video was a sham, so it was a setup. Old cars don't sit for decades and just magically have freshly painted engines with brand new distributors. Along with new brake lines installed and bled. (that's when I turned off the video, so I don't know how much pre-planned BS was after that). Then the gas tank that's vented to the atmosphere just happens to have zero water in it and zero rust and varnish. This video was nothing more than a cash grab for watch minutes with some airtime for O'Reilly Auto Parts. MotorTrend has really went downhill since they got greedy and starting trying to milk viewers for every nickle they can get.

I miss a lot of things in this show. A lot of the "Derrickisms" are cut out of the MT episodes. You don't see as much and, just as in this episode, there is no satisfying ending.

You're assuming too much. Did he say it had been sitting OUTSIDE for 25 years? Or just "off the road" that long? Did he say they had not hosed it off? Clearly, someone had recently worked on the engine.

Along with a vented gas tank that has no rust, or water in it. After discovering new distributor guts already set up and ready to go. And just HAPPENED to have new brake lines, bled and ready to go. I turned off the video after that, so it's untelling how much more contrived BS was on there. This video is nothing but a corporate driven cash grab from watch minutes and showcasing why O'reilly Auto Parts pays them sponsorship money with product placement.

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.
