    Hay I'm 80 years old that is a tire machine up front I know I used one of an on in my day . I came across your channel enjoy your video .I be watching 👍

    That 8274 Warn winch on the Nissan is money my friend. 194,230,250 sixes have motor mounts straight across from each other, 292 has offset mounts and taller side plates for lifters/ pushrods 6in tall i think. Duel points are so you can have two different dwell settings for a broader spark curve over a broader RPM range.. The twin dash insterment cluster i believe is from a c3 vett. the one behind it should be for a square body truck. Congrats on the new property.

    My brother from another mother. We think alike, I always buy "diamonds in the rough" and polish them. It is the only fun way to go through life. -Just subscribed.

    Amazing man! What a blessing that you could pull that off, can’t wait to watch more.

    Looks like Puddin’s Fab Shop’s old garage! Congrats man, gonna be a sweet place when you clear out a thing out two!

    I love that old bead breaker and tire mounting stand. They are a great device for mounting and unmounting tires off steel wheels. I have never used one to work on an alloy wheel, but I'll bet it can be done. If that Chevy bellhousing will fit on the 6 banger, then it is most likely a 250.

    Very KOOL Congratulations on the new Place looks like a interesting build
  • Well, I just tripped over your channel on my front page, glad I did. Subscribed toot sweet, lol. Looks like a LOT of projects in that ol' shop. Lawn tractors are on of my many jams, I like that red unit, is it a Murray or a Roper? Drop by S.K.I. sometime if ya need to take a breather. Cheers from Alberta!
  • That's gonna be a heck of a lot of work but well worth the effort.
    Cool place!

    Those 4 mounted wheels are American Vector mags. I had the very first set ever sold on my 66 fastback 427 Corvette.
  • @dazasc3994
    you just got yourself a new subscriber, i'd love to go through all that stuff, saw a really cool snap on sign hanging on the wall up top. also check that random speaker, if it's a realistic mach one or two they sell for a 100 or so for parts even a single
  • @janhenkins
    That little Datsun truck could be a great asset, provided the chassis ladder is still in saveable condition. They are simple to work on, and super reliable if you take care of them. If the chassis is totally fubar, then you can simply part it out - there are bound to be people looking for 80's Datsun parts. Good luck with the shop, you're going to have loads of fun! 😀
  • @mikegleeson349
    Neat exploration, the first rim you saw is a GM Rally wheel. The winch on the 85+ Nissan "Not a hard Body" 4X4 king cab is a Warn Winch, the rims are 6 lug. Be careful wandering around under those roof panels in the back shop. Good luck!!!
  • @Tuxedorunner
    The trucks a Datsun 720 🤘🏻 a beast too, nice job on the purchase
  • @wyattoneable
    I don't even know you but I'm excited for you. So many possibilities.
  • Take big bites and keep chewing, awesome stuff to see. congratulations on the property and the leftover gold.
  • @aslamb6489
    that G.M. Rally wheel hanging on the Wall is worth something you cannot find those Wheels plenty full anymore they are very hard to find and when you do find them you pay thru the nose for them especially if they are in good shape that one looks maybe like it is Chrome Plated I don't know that for sure
