Unbelievable. 83 subscribers ??? This world is indeed sh*t !!! I am obviously not a viral YouTuber account fan. I enjoy learning more than what I have had previous. Historical content, motivations for whys and how's, and above all else .. context of progress. Throw that in .. with my love of all things mechanical, hot rod & custom, & glorious auto manufacturing golden years .. .. and screeeeeeeech', boom, bam .. .. HERE I AM !!!! I LOVE THIS SH*T !!!

That old fella with the band aid was not afraid of hard labor during his life judging from the scars on his arms. In any event, it's good to see that there are people who are saving these old engines.

A 38 zephyr is one of those cars , that looks fast just sitting still. 🕶️

8:09 The Mopar 218 and 230 had that. They called it a water distribution tube. Keeping it in good shape was a must, you would burn valves if you didn't.

Love the oil indicator! And many think that is new technology!

You guys look younger in the newer videos than this one! (This vid is 3 yr old at time of comment). While this sounds like a mean joke, I am glad that you good are taking care of yourselves. So I do not mean this as a joke. I am a new viewer of this channel, & I hope that you all can share even more knowledge with us for a long long time!

Starting at 7:10, talking about speed, I remember back in the mid 1950s when the expression "going like 60" was still common...

De Uruguay mirando va quedar buena la reforma

It was good to see no visual cracks on the block ------ let's hope there are none that we can't see that will kill the block ------ maybe there will be more on what and how the block is set up for a C4 Transmission ------- the machining work ----- that would be interesting in knowing what had to be done to accept that trans.------- Thank You for bringing us along ----------------- Rodney

I was told the original transmission for that engine is about as rare as it gets. The first synchronized transmission

I've watched several sections of your build and am enjoying it very much😃thanks for showing and best wishes from jolly old England 🤓Pete 😎well worth subbing👍

great vid guys! just subscribed!

A daunting task, but seems like they’re up for the job!

My father had a Packard 2door 1930, with the 12 in it (painted red, on red, with candy apple pinstripes) Was that a v12 or a straight 12? I don't remember but the car was so long it could be either by the looks of it. The sound was wonderful and the car drove better (to me, anyway,) than his 28ish Rolls-Royce and sounded in a different league. It won grand national best closed car in 1970. I love 12 cylinder engines. That Packard had Crazy low end power ( if you were not careful you could spin the tires) and the car easily went 80mph. What a beauty.

I love those engines. What is the ballpark figure to rebuild it?

Imagine that motor in a Rat Rod!!

That bore looks like a 5hp Briggs

Crazy how small the pistons are

This v12 is rebuildable. Judging bybhow the outside looks. Nay need to fet it bored out though.

Me tirem uma dúvida, este minúsculo carburador, consegue alimentar 12 cilindros?
