    You know, given how this generation of Cutlass dominated NASCAR in the late 70's, it might explain why Angus was constantly trying to turn left.

    2:07 "Chevy Sideposts, my favourite flavour of Sadness" I couldn't hold myself back anymore 😂😂😂
  • @scuba_otter
    It's crazy how Kevin can make any car run really good and drive like 2000+ miles on a road trip across the country, maybe I might try and revive some old car one point in my life
  • @JaredR1996
    I’m glad there’s people like Kevin and so many others that revive vehicles and put them back in the road where they belong
  • @senditc20
    We care about dad’s safety because he will yell at us 😂 I freaking love this channel
  • @gensolo83
    Great video! This shot of the car 1:14 is from our family farm. I was fortunate enough to get behind the wheel before my brother sold it to you guys. It's a neat car and I'm glad it's been fixed up so it's safely driveable.
  • @filipk9430
    I can't thank you enough guys for making this videos... You are helping me to cope through my depression, pain and stress every single day, you are making my days easier and forget about the hell I am going through right now. Can't thank you enough, please keep up the good work and I wish you happiness more love and success in this new year. Thank you for being who you are. Lots of love from Macedonia!

    I was thinking that year, one of the engineers was asked what the 442 stood for. His answer was "4 wheels, 4 sale, 2 much money".
  • @jimhickey2276
    Your Dad and his cars always being around but not running is me right there. My kids have grown up with a bunch of old cars that I've had forever, some that haven't been in regular use since the 90s. Glad they love cars as much as I do. Time flies, glad you're driving that 442. I kept accumulating projects, but I woke up one day and discovered I'm nearly 55 now and I won't finish this stuff in another lifetime let alone this one. Keep wrenching!

    Anytime there’s a video with Kevin, Angus and Tom you know it’s gonna be good. Tom always kills me 30:15
  • More Angus please! He is so freaking entertaining. He’s also a great presenter and host for the channel!
  • @user-bh6un9cz5f
    It's always a good time when Kevin and Angus are together doing something...
  • @jackrichards1863
    That Oldsmobile Cutlass is everything the name claims with the go fast goodies in there. I fell to llike that car in this story. Sounds like it's ready to chew anything up and spit it out. It's got soul man, which you can tell by it's saving the boil until you arrived home! Some cars are ghost cars and some with good souls like this one are absolute magic. I's no surpise then hat you guys had a blast even when it was mundane and boring you mustered easy humor. 442 Rocks!

    "Chevy side post...my favorite flavor of sadness". Winning line of the year! LOL Right about now...that meme from McTaggert of the cat in the hardhat applies: "Rolling up into work with my unregistered/uninsured sh*tbox: sup fookers!!"🤣🤣🤣
  • "That's the porch light to my house." "What's that noise?" The perfect time to ask that, haha! 🤣This was an absolutely epic video, and man was it hilarious! You two make such a good duo on camera and working together, hopefully we will see more of Angus in the future! At least we know we'll see him a lot next week with the Impending doom... I mean Impala! 😂

    Gene is a legend. Totally captures the Midwest spirit.
  • @DillonYoung
    Your "Revive a car and drive it too far" videos are some of the most entertaining vids on youtube.
