I found this 5 Speed Manual 1999 Mustang GT New Edge on a classified online that's been sitting in the same place for years. I bought it, and had it towed home and tried to start it.....
Special thanks to Step Mom: bit.ly/3lOlePt

Sam listen to me. Fix this mustang. Replace the cylinder heads and it’ll be good again. Thanks 👍🏼
Heck just replace the bent valve... Sure there's still the head gasket labor but replacing that valve adds maybe 15 minutes to the process and each valve can be had for under 7 bucks on rockauto...
If you looked at the cameras date it says this was filmed back in last summer, so there’s no telling where this car is now
Since no one said it. LS SWAP IT!
yes fix the mustang please.
I would love to have it lol
Only one cylinder head. Keep it as low budget as possible without any additional efforts ;-)
Exactly! Cheap to go and have some fun with your stepmom in it ;)
@@zwapz yes. this.
I'm with you! 👍Cheapest... 😊
You're actually telling Crac to stay low budget?
@@douglasb.1203 hahaha. We will always have the "what if". But since this is a budget car he could try to go back to basics 😉
If only sam actually “fixed” something. I dont remember him actually doing a car start to finish by himself.
He does seem to lose interest quickly.
Blue jag, dominoes DXP Chevy spark, fiesta ST, you must be new.
This is the first time seeing his channel, he is not a car guy, barley has the ability to change a battery, dont know how he got his subscribers, but I won't be one of them
Stepmom likes it when Sam is "shooting the starter fluid in the intake".
Sam giving unfinished projects a new home... "If it's going to sit unfinished, it may as well sit unfinished here on my property."
The cows love the "toys" on the farm.
Remove valve cover it could just be a broken valve spring
This ^^^^^
You would hear the spring flopping around, and speaking it smacked the piston it's most likely bent anyway.
Yeah i think it’s something extremely simple under that valve cover as well
The only reason why pretend step mom exists is because Uncle Rich has Leanda on his channel 😂😂😂😂
I've been watching far to much Cory Chase since shes been on the channel.
@@probablynotwearingpants6228 ahh...the AVN star 😂😂😂
I suppose Leanda on Rich's channel is also an adult entertainer.
@@skeelo69 i mean she does have an onlyfans... i heard....
@@ichheissedamian SAUSE
The capped braided line on top of the alternator gives you a clue on the previous life with it. Possibly had nitrous on it and had the life beat out of it. Bad nos tune can ruin valves and pistons
Pull the head lap in a new valve and slam it back together for $50 and time, oh and get the head decked, don’t want to put a warped head on, but regardless of that, should have less than $100 and time in it
cheapest option, just do it yourself!
probably valve guide as well
This is how I bought my 3.0 ranger had a bent valve I slapped a new head on it an 10k miles later it’s still reliable
Put the bent valve on an anvil and hammer it eyeball straight and use the head gasket over, no cost.
@@houseoffolly cant reuse these cork headgaskets itll just leak a new ones like 30 bucks or something
Sam's solution: Never shows or mentions the car again
sam takes the car from one field and puts it in his to sit for another couple years
@@mattl5238 Well at least Sam has it under a tree for added protection.
Do the head Sam. If the car is otherwise good, sell it on to someone that needs a reliable car.
I think Chris fix has one of these mustang. We should ask him for advice 😂😂
Honest to god man with the compression reading you were getting, I’d literally locate two valves and lap two new ones on that cylinder
I bought a wrecked 2004 gt with 3000 miles on it. No compression #7. Turned out to be (surprise surprise) a bent valve. I bought just a valve at the dealership. Hired a backyard mechanic and we fixed the engine
hey Sam, take another look at the cylinder wall, it looks honed, like the engine was recently overhauled...dont ditch it just yet
Went back and looked (15:30) and your right - might start by pulling valve cover as it could be a broken spring
@@mikez9853 I tore down a 5.3 vortec with 145000 miles on it that still had the crosshatch in the cylinders.
My 116k mile 4.6 cylinder walls looked perfect when I pulled the heads off. My guess on this car is that a timing chain guide broke and it jumped timing
BTW Sam back in 1999 when this car was new it was one of the fastest 0-60 production cars sold. It's advertised 0-60 time was 5.4 sec. I have owned a 1999 GT for 23 years now still love the car.
I'll buy it off of you. After you give up, hopefully before you flood it with garbage quick fix liquids and abandon it in your field! (Hopefully,🥵)
It depends, how nice is your field?
The valve bent for a reason. Junkyard cylinder head and be on your way.
could have been valve float from overreving the engine. i'd just replace the valves in that cylynder and call it a day. the rest are fine.
It’s about time you return to the “little people vehicles”. Tired of all the CZcams guys doing these out of sight luxury vehicles that nobody can really afford.
Vice Grip Garage, thank me later.
@@coolierewind Independence! Also Junkyard Digs, and Mustie1!
@@coolierewind meh, I already watch them. They don’t do any body work, they just make them run. Which is cool, but I’m looking specifically for content that does both. Like Randy out in Oklahoma from Auto Auction Rebuilds.
Yup. Exotics are fun to see, but throwing in a budget build every now and then would be cool for us that want to see how to tackle things with a lighter budget.
@@billymasoner3735 Yah there becoming hard to find that's what I like about him and TK Mike.
Step Mom. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Good one!!! I almost spit my drink out, I started laughing so hard!!! 😂
Same here, I came to read the comments about her being in the video🤣
@@MrDhess68 ditto 🤣🤣😂😂
Those aren't ant nests. They are wasps that we used to call mud daubers.
they are still called that, I've only known them as mud wasp but why did he say ant a few times and after he was told they were Wasp he said Ant twice as much? denial much. yeah like that's his step mom too.
Yep, called them dirt daubers
By this point Sam might have more cars than his stepmom has stepsons.
Who’s the stepmom?
@@F7PRO37 Something is telling me that is Cory Chase... the internet's stepmom.
Rebuild the engine. It's not about the car, it's about the content.
might as well build it too, turn it into a 4v or something
Not with sam it isn't
What, you want a 5 year project?
@@Sylvan_dB lol
Damn that blue with those chrome wheels up under the tree just looks amazing
Sam these car stories are great, step mom is awesom, lets see more of her!
I get red flags when someone calls mud dauber/hornet nests ant nests. 🤯
Mud dauber's are common in British Columbia, so I kept saying "They aren't ant nests Sam!" My wife kept saying, "He can't hear you!"
Yep, I kept thinking why doesn't he know those are Hornets nests?
Maybe they aren't as common in Florida. 🤷♂️
*Right. I was unaware that Ants even made nests.*
@@Viking8888 I live in Florida. They are very common here.
"one of the least desirable mustangs available"
New edge owners: *And I took that personally*
No eco boost :)
I love mine...
I’ve owned three SN-95’s and I hate to admit that the interiors bothered the shit out of me. Even in my 04 Cobra. But overall, one of my top favs.
@@farewell_to_normalcy9352 I have to agree about the interior. The first time I got in a new edge I was mortified with the quality and design of the Interior, it's exactly the same interior as the generation before it and it doesn't match the exterior design but I've gotten used to it since. I've owned 2 and that's the weakest part of that generation for sure.
One of them, but not the worst. The worst will always be the 4 cylinder “Pusstangs” out there. Looking at you, 1996....LOL
“ if I replace the engine then it’s still just a stock 2 valve”
Ahh, stick a four valve in it then?
That is a bargain. That car would fetch 3k+ in my area.
Bring it back to life. I would try the cylinder heads first tbh
I would love to see the old girl brought back. Time for a good budget build series!
You mean his step-mom right?
I DEADASS THOUGHT THAT WAS HIS STEPMOM AND THOUGHT “huh she kinda looks like…. OMG HOLY SHIT IT IS” hahahaha
Me too
My $0.02; I don't subscribe to watch you flip cars, so fix it! ;-)
I knew it had a dead cylinder just from hearing it turn over the first time you tried, it’s a pretty clean car though
Yup you could hear the high spot when cranking too 😆
Hey Sam, I really want to see you working on this car, afterall, has the same engine as your mom car, maybe she will wants it
I was laughing at the authenticity of this video, and then I saw Cory Chase, and I knew it was legit. Haha good one!
Carefully, Chrisfix might have to pay you a visit
Chrisfix, come on down!
Chrisfix would have this car running again in a couple hours.
@@angelgjr1999 Chrisfix would have it running with just a spray bottle of soapy water and his sparkling personality.
Don't auction, we wanna see what it takes to get it running. More stepmom plz.
simp, yous downbad
Sam, it was great to see how to problem solve the running issue. Can you do more videos like these? I can't even get my weed wacker started after the winter.
It sux not being mechanically inclined. Same.
That's why I got rid of my gas powered weed whacker and got a battery powered one.
I'd love to see the mustang fixed! It is a reliable car. Love the 4.6 L!
My 02 GT is still running strong.
That nitrous line under the hood has nothing to do with why it's running bad I bet
Or over-revved.
Lol two words Ker-Boom!
i cant believe that this wasnt one of the first comments in this video. a braided hose not connected to something is the first sign that this was rode hard, and put away wet. perhaps its not a nitrous line, but what else would it be?
Stepmom must have tightened up those purse strings you’re now giving cash for clunkers🤮
@This Modern Mansion he needs to get hands on a sort things out
I have to ask are they dating or something like how dose he have such a big ps on his videos lol
james Hurley I wonder too. She is one of the main reasons i keep watching his videos.
@@Just_In_credible6 I just want to know the story are they just friends are they dating like tell us lol
@This Modern Mansion go visit Cleetus he’s buying up all the crown vics in Florida
Oof, it hurts to hear him say new edges are one of the least desirable mustangs 😖. I know the 2Vs are slow but the new edges look so good!
Agreed
They are far better than the early to mid 70s mustangs with 80 horsepower and the body style in the video is better than the last of the fox body’s and the early sn95s
Slow unless you build it and procharge it 😁 then it can hold its own .
With the Fauci comment, I am guessing you’re a Trumper
Lived in Florida his entire life and doesn't know a mud dauber nest?
City boys
Was thinking the same thing.
YES!
Sam knows. The Internet seems to like when guys take a broken thing that is basically worthless and turn it into a working thing that's still basically worthless. The YT eyeballs are worth more than whatever profit is to be made at the salvage auction.
how much you think he would make off a 1 episode cylinder head swap? would it eclipse the 100$ material cost? then dump it at the auction. Straight to the auction sounds lazy. He's got a paint booth and the means to fix 90% of the issues on the car. why not do it. unless this is click bait and the plan was to fix it all along.
D R U M B E A T S 🥁
Used car prices are up. I wonder how much this is worth fixed.
Which is why I love watching vice grip garage. His skill at getting rust buckets running again is amazing
@@af22man VG would have had this fixed in a day and driven it 1200 miles home in one episode.
I have an '03 GT. I've had it for 9 years. I love the New Edge body style. I had a '95 before this one and definitely like the New Edge style better. But yes, you're right about the cheap plastic interior.....although, mine has held up very well.
I Really don’t know how you talked the seller into $500 when wheels alone are worth more and it also could’ve been parted out! Good find indeed
I would put in another engine that makes the car go faster. Let's go!
People have been known to do a Coyote swap. That would surprise those that think it still has the stock 4.6L.
Make a series of reviving old cars that have been parked for a few year please,they are dn satisfying when they do come back to like after some years👍🏼
Check out Budget Buildz channel if you like that sort of stuff!
Also flexiniy, just starts up old scrapyard cars
This was my first car at 16 in 1999, brand new. My dad was an owner of a auto parts chain and Ford gave us a free vehicle for being a vendor. Thought I was so cool.
The "best interest" Fauci flash at 1:30 was hilarious 😂 🤣🤣🤣🤣
From Summit 8$ for a valve and 60$ head gasket. Easy fix.
Yes! Do it! As low a cost a fix as you can would be a great challenge
a head gasket is $60 on those?
You got to remember, what caused the valve damage in the first place, replacing that valve and putting it all back together with all old components would cause the same issue again if mechanical components such as timing caused it to fail in the first place, Its not that simple.
Nitrous line, extra long bolts on the fuel pressure sensor where fuel would be tapped from for nitrous.
Probably had a nitrous backfire and bent that valve
Good catch on the fuel pressure sensor bolts. I only noticed the line.
I was looking at the same thing. Scrolled to see if anyone else noticed.
Yup I think there’s a very good chance your right
I’m going to go the contrarian route. Send it to the auction, make a little money and move on to a more interesting car. Unless… you come up with a super cheap and slick repair solution that’s so clever it blows everyone away.
at 1:32 he splices a pic of Dr. Fauci while saying "we live in a time where certain people's recommendations might not be in our best interest". I guess Sam is outing himself as an antimasker.
Yeah, I'm surprised not much is being said on that. Is he applying the same wishful thinking he uses when trying to fix cars, to the health of everyone? Luckily he's only in charge of some chickens.
Abandoned Blue mustang on the side of the road, sounds about Florida to me!
I would 100% keep it! I'd love to see this car revived! The cylinder walls look really clean. Find a couple heads or do a 4v Cobra swap and tidy the car up a bit. Headlights/taillights etc etc.
Your step mom you say?
Let's put it this way.... I'll believe it when I see it!!!!!
😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Don't let you dad get jealous now!
I still remember when my brother bought a 2000 Mustang GT and drove it home... brand new brings back memories..
I Finally saw 1 of "Step Mom's" movies! 😆
How is her "acting" ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Did she blow you away with her talent?
I’ve heard her exhaust keeps getting blocked 🧐
Hope she don’t get stuck under her hood when he try’s to help her fix her crown Vic
@@AMLagonda might have to take her for a test drive and find out myself
The step mom tho 👀

@@johnhull6363 exactly what i was thinking
@@on-site4094 really we all know she is overheating lol.
Cory has so many step kids. I’ve noticed she’s loves some of them too much 😉😂🤣
I say repair it for cheap, fix paint cheaply, fix interior cheap, maybe get some matching leather dye and make the interior great looking, then sell it for a few grand profit if possible.
that step mom thing was so weird. why was that put in the video??
That's not ants nests dude. Unless y'all have oversized, mutant, flying ants where you live.....
Just do the cylinder head replacement, good video content showing us how to get a cheap, fun car back on the road for short money!
😳 Me watching anxiously for the wasp attack knowing those are not ants nests 😂😂
Flying ants that sting lol
Those are ants nests...I lived in Florida for 20 yrs and have dealt with those many times.
@@seanwilks7712 which ant species has shunned large underground ant colonies and started living in small arial mud nests with wasp sized holes in it?
@@Ryan-lz8zm
I don’t know the exact species name but I do know it’s a flying ant of some kind.
Mud dobbers! They are very peaceful wasps.
The new edge mustang is not junk, it is an era of one of the greatest Mustangs ever made which was the Terminator Cobra, the first mustang to come with a supercharger direct from Ford, the car is a solid project with a great factory color
Back when I was a teenager with no cash I would have taken off both heads, lapped all the valves, bought a new valve to replace the bent one, two new copper head gaskets, back together, total job two weekends, drive the shit out of it for the summer, then sell for a profit.
I would love to see this fixed on a budget, get it running and driving great.
Uncle rich pulling up with that extra long 10mm socket like.
Remember it’s a thin wall tho!! Lmao!!
Hey Sam! Just pull that head off and put a valve in it. You could have a machine shop run through the head, but if you want on the cheap, pull bent valve, analyze seat and lap a new valve in.
Sam. I'm probably biased in my response since I have a 2004 Mustang GT, but my vote is take the 2 heads and get them repaired and machined. This car is well worth repairing. Great interior and fairly good exterior. Like you said, probably at least $600 worth of tires & wheels. Repair it, then sell it!
I love how he has Corey Chase doing video inserts for him; I hope he is paying her good.
I was wondering what was going on with that
@@hippycow1006 promo for her CZcams channel, also she’s a lot richer than Sam is, because of her other videos on P H 😉
Oh he pays her alright... In Bananas, hens al the banana boxes everywhere...
I was like, man she looks familiar
More like she pays him
I love these mustangs, i don't get why they are "not desirable"
Most of them were Beat to Snot when I was in Highschool 00.01.02.03
It's still a nice mustang, but both the older and newer ones look a lot better
Same, it's actually aged better than the 05 body style to me.
I imagine it's usually the beat to snot aspect of old 'muscle' cars
Not sure either. I think they look great, tons of parts availability, cheap.
Backyard fix, just pull the bad valve and lap a new one in if the head looks good otherwise. Fresh timing guides/tensioners while you're in there and done for a couple hundred. One video for the fix, another video for a full inside/out detail and then dump it for $4k.
Sam fix the ‘stang. Do a DIY cylinder head replacement. It will get you familiar with the engine. Then you can show your expertise on fixing your step mom’s motor. I’m sure she will be grateful 😜. Might even let you skip some chores 😎
Save the car Sam please. I’d fix the engine by replacing the head and replacing the head gasket, then sell it or keep it for a driver.
Rebuild it with your stepdad “rich”
Worth is in the eye of the beholder. I'm a tinkerer and would love to see this car back up and running. I don't have a lot of extra cash but have a love of mustangs allmakes. I happen o like the edge style. It's not worthless to me. Change the cylinder head and raffle it off it will make for some fun content and a great give away. Fresh coat of paint and I would be happy as clam to cruise around in it.
Bro you could spend like $80 and replace the valve yourself.... Why you acting like 1 valve is such a big deal? About 4hrs and max $200 and it'll be good as new
Am I the only one that thinks the whole stepmom thing has been overdone. At least with Rich's chick she's actually a little funny.
I love it.
so annoying , I agree .
I agree I'm sure by now we all know who she is and the nasty she does 😂
That's Corey lol
I feel like you brought some invasive species onto your property with this one
I kept thinking the same.
All that just to junk the car, could have kept it moving.
Have you guys been following the EPA crackdowns? its only a matter of time before they start knocking on everyone's door in the car enthusiast world. We as car enthusiasts need to get ahead of this. it's up to those in the industry to band together and make a group that has their interests in mind (such as the firearms community has like the NFA) to advocate and lobby for the industry as a whole. it's time the car enthusiast communities and companies work together to make this team of people to protect the interests of car enthusiasts across North America.
Hey nick p. I’m also nick p 😂
That body style in orange one of my most favorite mustangs ever
Uncle rich wouldn't be afraid to fix this stang.
Personally I would pull that head replace those 2 valves put it back together and see what happens.
But then he can't milk it for content
Fix the car, put after market exhaust in it, put on better looking headlights, maybe a cold air intake, have the paint buffed, then sell it at auction
These mustangs are very popular, one of the most popular body styles. And that 2 valve can put out 450hp with not alot of money. And fun as hell to drive.
Hmmm your step mom looks familiar. Not sure why though.

Sam: ignores nitrous lines
i seen that too and you could tell its had a recent overhaul i gaurantee it had a nitrous backfire bent the valve then the valve kissed the piston just a smidge and the owner didnt wanna fix it
I was wondering what that braided line was! I bet they would drag race that car and bent the piston.
Bro I was thinking the same thing. like you don't see these beautiful braided lines? please open the trunk. lol
@@davidkays7609 how does one “bend a piston “??? 🤔🤨🤪
@@gregrn779 a LOT of force
Keep it. I know it's not what you do on this channel but maybe do a diy budget drag or drift car with it? Idk. But definitely keep it.
Simple deal: Replace both heads at the same time, because the problem that got one will likely get the other. Do it in pairs. Simple deal, problem solved. Ship it down the road to someone who wants to do a bigger rebuild or replacement in the future.
That steel braided line hanging out near the intake is pretty suspicious. Lol
First thing I saw
I saw that too. Someone shot nitrous and jumped timing? 😂😂
@@Viewer899 looks like an oil feed for a supercharger. i'm installing a vortech kit on my 2000 GT right now and it's the same deal. that along with the extension on the upper radiator hose to clear it
@@Viewer899 definitely didnt jump timing its still firing on 7/8 cylinders and number 8 is because of a bent valve 100% the owner sprayed the house down with nitrous had a backfire bent the valve then it kissed the piston just slightly owner probably assumed it was wrecked inside parked it and now sam has it
@@Viewer899 not sure if it's actually a nitrous line and it probably didn't jump timing because all the valves on that side would be bent. Probably high RPM and valve float made the valve kiss the piston.
I would like to see this back on the road. Im sure there is a lot people have the same issue. It would be a good video to show that work.
omg the step mom thing had me rollin
I would have the motor taken out and stripped in a few hours. Have the heads shaved, bore the block 70 over. Replace all gaskets, replace the oil and fuel pump, throw in some new forged Pistons and completely have the transmission rebuilt, change the break and caliber, keep exhaust spray some febreze inside and your good to go!
Was running rough, owner parked it in a field and it's been sitting there ever since.... where have I seen that before? 😂
The stepmom bit is just getting cringy at this point
😂 ikr
He seriously needs to drop the step mom act. It's not just cringe, it's freaking disturbing.
Please rebuild this thing brotha, these new edge body styles are always sick to see and easy to work on. If you do a couple mods they are extremely fun to drive!
it is worth it considering there is no major damage to the cylinder of piston
you can go for 4v if you find one in good condition where valves did not decide to kiss but if 2v is cost effective:
-slam in new valves
-lash them plus add new internals
-while you are there port intake and exahust ports
-clear all casting flash because why not
-make it a ALL-motor cuz why not junkyard has a spare for cheap unless you find way better engine at junkyard for cheap and it would be a fun car or keep it stock
