Looking good. To install the rear springs, disconnect the shock, push the suspension down, set the spring in, jack the axle housing up until the shock bolts back up.
I was thinking of doing that but someone said I need the compressor. Thanks!
great to see a whole bunch of progress made on the car all at one time
Feels good to be working on it. It's been in my garage for years!...lol
So glad to see you back! And throw good content our way. Now we need to get this channel membership and viewers back up where it belongs !!
Hey Thanks Man! I really appreciate that!
You are a very nice guy, very real and authentic CZcamsr, family guy and team player, I wish you all the best on this El Camino journey !!! Peace ✌🏼
Hey Thanks! I really appreciate that! ✌🏻
Nice work on the rear-end. Looks really nice sitting under there. Kudos to Oliver for the assist with the bushings and bearings. Look forward to more. Be safe and stay well.
Hey Thanks Brian! Appreciate it!
Your ability to save those old parts is absolutely AMAZING!! Most people woulda tossed those parts, but you saved them... Great job brother!!
Gotta save what I can! Especially because I can't afford new stuff...lol! Thanks Brother!
@@CountryBoyGasGarage Old stuff is way better than new stuff!!
@@pugliesesspeedshop yes it is! Take Care Brother!
I love El Caminos wish I had one. She look pretty cool when she get back on the road and cruising.
Well worth the effort..very cool
Need to do the same thing on my kitten....Will definitely be coming back to this episode....haven't got myself a hub puller yet...or axel stands or a jack...but cleaning the frame up in the same Manor as you have....cheers

Hello Gordon! Thank you!
Jason, I'd like to see the El Camino transformed into a street rod. The idea of restoring it to stock is my second choice. Your El Camino would look so cool with the old "muscle car" vibe! Whatever you decide to do will be great! Thanks for showing us how it's done!
Hey Thanks Robert! That sounds like a great idea to me!
Lovin’ your buddy’s “Newbomb’s Pie Wagon“ banner. What an under rated movie! 😅 Keep up the great work!
Awesome! I need to watch it again. Thanks!
The rig will cruise like a new one, thanks for sharing, all the best to you and your loved ones
Thank you!
These channels are my favorite kinds, the smaller ones such as yours, Pugliese speed shop, Garth’s graveyard garage etc, working with minimal equipment and funds. The bigger ones are fine but it’s easy when you have everything and lots of funds. Like to see you grow into a great channel. Glad you’re back.
Hey Thanks! I appreciate that!
Awsome bit of progress Jason nice job buddy 👍🏾
Hey Thanks!
Enjoyed the video and subscribed to Trad RodnCustom, already subscribed to the other channels. You asked what we would do with the ElCamino, I’d make it roadworthy and dependable and enjoy it. Drive it, haul stuff in it, and meet up with friends in it. Been driving old cars for 45 years and really enjoy the ones that you can take anywhere and not worry about rain, scratching them, or anything else for that matter. Use and enjoy the car. 🤠
Awesome! Hey Thanks!
It’s looking awesome buddy just keep going
Hey Thanks!
Jason - Enjoyed your video and I think you should leave the El Camino mostly stock as I think it would make you a great parts hauler. Look forward to your next video on the School bus manifold project. Heat up the manifold bolts prior to loosening them and Good Luck !
Thank You Philip! Good call on heating up the manifold! ✌🏻
You’re doing great; do things right and only once. Start with the foundation, which is the chassis and suspension and work your way up.
That's Right! Hey Thanks!
You do good work. Coming right along.
Thank You!
Thanks!
Hey Thanks Frank! I really appreciate that!
This is going to be a cool vehicle when it is done,when I was a kid we had a 1960 Chevy station wagon I don’t remember what it was called but I remember we took a lot of family trips in it until it was taken out by a drunk driver, but I always liked that style 😁😁👍👍
Hey Thanks! 59 and 60s are so cool! Love them!
Well Jason, If I were the one driving the ElCo, it would have a tail up stance. Not too high but some. My neck of the woods would be hard on a low riding car, and a low riding car would be hard on my knees! In the end it's your car, scour the net and see if there's one that looks just right to you.
Hey Thanks Man! I love that idea!
Looking good under there...😊
Thanks 👍
Thanks for another , Brother !
Thanks for watching!
Had a friend who had 2, 59 El Caminos 1 had a 409 V8. I would say paint it the same original color and build the stock motor Hipo and new exhaust .
Awesome! Hey Thanks!
COOL video Jason!!! I was born in 1959,and I truly think you should leave it stock if possible. But it's your car. Just DON'T GO LOW RIDER!!!!!!! Love this stuff!!! Your friend Joe.
Hey Thanks Joe! I appreciate that!
That stuff all turned out so purdy!
Thank for all the help man! I appreciate it!
Of course, any time! Thank you for the kind words and the shout out!
I did the axle bearings on my `59 back in 1997. I don't remember having o-rings! My memory could be failing me LOL / Thank you for documenting the bushing replacement on the back end too; now I know what I need to do on my Biscayne! `59s Forever!
Hey Thanks Kurt! I love the 59s! Next I'm moving to the front suspension! Take Care Man!
The 59 and 60 El Camino are one of my favorites. In 63 I bought a beautiful black 60 three speed car with a built 283 including a rare Corvette high rise intake with an AFB and an aluminum flywheel. Of course, in 63 completely rust free.
Later in its life it got an aluminum T10 close ratio 4 speed and a new built engine with a Duntov 30 30 cam.
Loved that car, but I was eventually seduced by a 65 Impala SS 4 speed car.
Enjoyed the episode on your 59 and look forward to seeing more.
Awesome! I love 59s! This my first so I'm learning...lol! Hey Thanks! ✌🏻
@@CountryBoyGasGarage I followed the restoration of the Theetravisb 60 El Camino, and he now has another to restore. So, now I'm looking forward to following your work. I notice that your car as the optional fresh air heater system and the deluxe windshield wiper motor.
@supernovaVII Sweet! Oh thanks! I'm not familiar with the available options. I know a previous owner installed an Impala stainless dash trim and door panels.
Enjoy all the videos you post looking good on the 59 can't wait to see more till then have a blessed week and God bless
Thank You! God Bless!
No one can say that 59 ain't got a pretty rear end. Good job on the fit and finish.
Thank You!
Doing great 👍
Thanks!
Hey Jason you missed your callin' . You would have made a great Auto Shop teacher ! 🤭👍 Great editing on this one. Hey if those wheel bolts had a " M " on the head I may have rolled the threads on those on my line at work. I ran a line of Thread Rollers for 36yrs at MNP Corp. Anyway your doing all the basics that needed doin' . It sucks to lay under a car grinding rust ! Peace Buddy ! ✌️😎👍 Hey save that tree falling footage. You could do a spoof vid on giant grizzly attacking the homestead. 🤣
Awesome! That would be cool!yeah laying on gravel underneath grinding rust sucks! Lol...great idea!
Keep it up buddy.
Hey Thanks!
Great video series Jason, really enjoying them, have a nice week 😁😁
Hey Thanks Man!
That would look sick on bags👍
I totally agree! I will be looking into different set ups.
@@CountryBoyGasGarage keep in mind that there's a lot of companies that will do a sponsorship thing. Just for you rating their kits.👌
Great work man!
Thank You!
Hi Jason that 59 would look cool painted and with some graphics and made into a lowrider El Camino
I completely agree!
Well, IF that El Camino were my car, and I could afford to do so, I'd separate the body from the frame, take it somewhere to have it dipped, then have all the body work done on it. After that I'd spray it all down with a thick coat of primer . After that I'd do the same to the frame. I'd put a thick coat of underbody on both the frame and the bottom of the body. Then I'd start working on putting it all back together.
Excellent Plan!
Lets goo Jason!
Let's Go!
It's an awesome looking car I would leave its stock
Thanks! I like that plan
Enjoyed the video sir
Thank You!
Hi Jason, it’s been a while. Nice to see you again. That ‘59 is looking awesome. Looking forward to upcoming videos. Personally, I would leave it as original as possible, including 4 whitewalls & hubcaps. Cheers from Jerome in Florida🍻
Hey Thanks Jerome! I like that idea. I been looking at whitewalls!
Happy you're back. U subsubscribed cause I didn't think you were all in on the tube
Hey Thanks!
I see you El Camino as a surviver styled patina car!
Love the idea!
I'd wanna make it a lowrider, but i don't know how low it can go without tunneling the bed ;p
It would make a great lowrider!
I like to see it as a Gasser
Oh I Love Gassers!
Dude! Yer back! Wtf?! I never got any notifications for your videos! So now I gotta go back and watch All the past videos i haven't seen! (Wich is fine) Good to see you back!
Hey Thanks Man! It feels good to be back!
@@CountryBoyGasGarage now let's get the word out. So we can get you back up to the views you were getting before!👍🇺🇲
love the bus. modified stock is my thing. keep it simple.
there is a lot of rot in that car body to contend with.
A car like that, I cut the floor out of the bed, replace the cross over supports,
basic tubing, check the back of the cab under behind the seat to see if it is rusted out.
then weld the bed floor back in, or go with wood runners. it's your call.
Your not going to sink 50 thousand into it for a complete body fame / paint job interior included overhaul,
get it dressed up, add some ponies to the engine. so it burns rubber, sell it.
In the old days, there was plenty of these cars around. not today. wrecking yards are
being bought up for the land, and all that stuff is going to the
crusher. Road kill pretty much has the right idea, although they been known to destroy
what they got up and running. I loved the white 69 Barracuda they found and got up and running, raced it and after,
they sold it. haven't seen it sense.
it's your show.
The Lord Bless you and yours.
Hey Thanks! Great plan! God Bless!
That was mine I'll leave it the way it is all original
I like that idea!
❤
Woohooooo!
Let's Go!
✌️
I hate it when people use sockets on press tool ,my brother he’s a mechanic does it all the time even though I have a bush press set he can use on the press
But they seem to work so good...lol
I dont have a bush press set sadly.... a 34 dollar set of sockets I got for free work okay though!
Got a spring compressor and a press and I'm right around the corner from you. No antisieze on those bolts?
Oh dang, should I be using antisieze?
@@CountryBoyGasGarage Depends on whether you want to eventually take it apart again without any drama. Around here in Oregon you'll probably be fine.
@@trashandtrail I haven't torqued anything down yet, so I still can
Stock
I had to do all this with my '58 Delray last summer. Hope to be driving it this summer!! What gear ratio is your (awesome) '59?
Awesome! I didn't even check the ratio, hope that doesn't come back to bite me
@@CountryBoyGasGarageShame Shame 🤭
That would piss me off. You move out to the woods and someone cuts down all the woods! 🤬
Yeah it sucks! That's where the elk were hanging out
@@CountryBoyGasGarage damn bro. And I bet they didn't even have a good reason for cutting All those trees down either 🤬
Low rider.
Yes!
Jason You Sure making it looking good cleaning up the parts and putting new bearings and gaskets ect. on it to making the 59 dependable and I think it’s more important to bring it back dependable even if stock parts are more available and priced right to be able to get it on the road again and go from there with the lipstick after that 🏆🏌️
Hey Thanks Ron! That's what I think also. Make it safe and reliable then cosmetic afterwards. Take care friend! ✌🏻
Hell yeah you back so glad
Back in Action! Thanks!
Hey what's up bro I sub 2 all of them it's going 2 B BADASS THANK U 🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🐺🌕🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
Awesome! Hey Thanks!
