    I like how you're about making it work and not about it being perfect. Makes it a lot more relatable. Not all of us have millions of bugs to spend on a car, but you can still enjoy your rig and have fun with it.

    cool fookin car, my first automatic car I ever drove was a 1948 pontiac inline straight 8m had that massive hood ornament with the red lens material wings, lot like this one here but I believe it was a 4 door, this was early 70's so been a minute, it was forest green mohair, coolest car ever I believe it was a silver streak torpedo... lol, I torpedoed it across the pasture into the neighbors fence when the throttle got stuck either that or the river, owner chewed my arse out good, luckily it was so heavy duty it did no damage save a few scratches, took the fence post and concrete rightout the ground.. I love those old cars, peeps today have no idea, the weight, the suspension, the big steering wheel, 5 turns to full . . .like riding on a cloud tho... man I miss all my old cars, all of them, they never made a bad car like you never heard anyone before like the mid 70's say , yea but those were lemons whatever, they were ALL good cars as Americans took serious pride in their work, they cared, and quailut was A #1... todayit all shyt made in chyna or some other dump, and these butt plugs they have destroying the show today are making it all worse by the minute . . . sad, but the old cars can make me forget..

    Anyone playing with a 4.3, and have a crankshaft, camshaft correlation code, pull the distributor and check the drive gear. The gears will get so worn on the distributor they will be razor sharp. Don't throw money at it buying new sensors. Just change the drive gear.
    Just seeing Casey changing the cap and rotor reminded me of the gear issue.

We are constantly bombarded with these Foose/West coast customs type shows where they spent $250k on cars id be scared to drive or park on the street. Yeah, they are works of mechanical art, but you remind us all of what proper hot rodding is actually about. Good on ya mate. Looking forward to the next video.

    Great job Casey watching this video was like you being Noah and making that 51 Chevy your Ark love how you did everything yourself on budget specially the way you combine two vehicles into one I know the budget was $3500 that's if somebody's doing all the work themselves but in reality how much would something exactly the same way you built plus all the labor/time you put into it would cost? Some people don't have time/garage or ability to build such a art piece. PS those cops sounded like they were definitely There for you You hit the Batcave just in time keep up the great videos/work

    Casey... I'm sure ya probably won't see this comment. An that's okay. Census video has been out for quite a while now. This is the 3rd time I've watched this video my CZcams friend. I love this car so friggin much Casey. For one...she's one of my favorite Chevy body styles. Then what you did for it, is so friggin badass. And what's your dad did with the roof is old school and rad as hell. Sure you might've been able to do it even better. But for a 3500.00 build. This cars friggin my dream car. When I seen the video where you said the winner couldn't afford to take it. I was so blown away about that. Just to have the ability to cruise this car to different cruise ins an car shows and be able to throw out there that Casey's Customs built this car would be totally friggin a dream come true for me. I love your channel so much bro. It just blows my mind the things you can do with cars. Granted there's many people that can do this. But I don't watch them, I watch you and appreciate your skills. Keep up the awesome Channel Casey. You always keep me riveted on every video you put out. I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge and skill with the world.
