- In this video I install a new aluminum radiator and dual electric fans I bought from ebay for the 1982 El Camino. I also install an aluminum billet grill, change the differential fluid and replace the chrome on the inner door panels.

Happy Birthday Nikki!!!!!! The El Camino's are coming along nicely. Just when you think your close to done well, you're not as Roseanne Roseannadanna said "it's always something" enjoy the videos keep'em coming.

I'm joker S10 built and I've been a mechanic for many years from now. 63 when I was younger. There's they sell a tool freeze out tool that has a wabble on the end and a stem sticks out so that you can reach it from strange areas and hammer it on from the bottom of that wobble. Try to look it up, and yeah, and check it out. Anyway, enjoy your show, I'm always watching, thanks. Lou

Good morning and Happy birthday Nikki 🎈🎊. The El Camino is looking great 👍 I'm sure you'll figure out the carb problem. Keep up the great work and cool videos 👍✌️🇺🇲
Thanks
For the low cost of a couple of 30A relays, I would sure install them for them fans rather then take a chance of burning your car up bud.
Good show Lee! Those 80s corvette wheels would look good on the 81! I remember back in the day seeing one with those on it. Really makes the truck stand out!
Both beautiful cars👍
Thanks
And the grill looks great
Thanks
Happy birthday to Nikki. And many, many more. Lee, the El Camino projects are looking good.

Thanks
Thanks man.

Thanks
Happy Sunday..
Hello Lee. Yeah when I pulled the inline six out of my 75’ nova I installed the v8 coil springs. But the best improvement overall was the heavy duty front sway bar. It was pretty cheap on eBay. It really knocked out the front from floating. Thanks for the video.
David, I did the same on my 1964 C10 Chevrolet pick-up. No more body roll of floating, matter the fact I changed the whole front roller section from a 1972 C10 Cheyeanne with disc brakes & five lug. It makes the ride so much better...and also changed the rear end to make it five lug & a rear sway bar too! Man what a difference it makes driving it. Much better than factory 1964 C10 was back in the day......Lee doing a good job on the El Camino's turning out pretty huh......
Love your channel. Both el Caminos look great
Thanks
Lee, You should clean and rebuild the carb kits are not that expensive that will do wonders.
You're wiping the el Camino 's in to shape.
they're getting there
That flexseal will work for a short while,maybe I'm doing something wrong,but I've cleaned the areas I've used it and still lasts a short while
we'll see
Those rubber freeze plugs are better then the metal. Ive used them for 40 years.
Damn Lee the grill came out amazing!
Carb rebuild?
How’s it going Lee…..Really a good job on the 2 ElCaminos always watch your videos!!
Thanks
Couldn’t hurt replacing the choke pull off.
Cool ❤
LEE. 3 thumbs-up on the chrome on the door panels, looks good my friend...She looking better & better each time you do something to the car(truck)?
Thanks
Your wiper problem is most likely the cover on the wiper motor there is a pc board that goes bad.
I had one on my truck that did the same and it needed rebuilt
Those quadrajet carburetors are notorious for the throttle shafts leaking vacuum. Might be what’s wrong with yours
Vacuum secondary's put a gauge on it see what kind of vacuum your pulling hard to pull enough vacuum sitting there need to really stand on it Lee just my 2 cents hope that helps cant wait to you roast some tires.
Yes I will everything up to 454 is the same friend's mission it's a 43 and a 38 are the same motor just different head configurations yeah you've got a 3 fish Turbo out of the other El Camino that apparently is good so even if it is possible a 250 TB which they made which I don't think it is because it's a 250 does not have a kickdown cable for the transmission for the passenger But you do have a good 350 I saw you pull out of the white 78 El Camino that will go right in that thing if you have to so i wouldn't worry about that I just fixed the leak change of fluid and roll with it and put that good transmission off out of the motor up somewhere so you have it in case it goes out cause you can use those in any of your other cars including your chevelles or like that
Should call it clunkers, classics, and cats lol
Hey Lee great video..however if that black car came with a V6..good possibility it may have came with a transmission 200 4r..same bolt pattern as a turbo 350..even the drive shaft will fit as it is the same in lenght..still good video.
200C The 4R was a 4spd. O.D.
@@Rick-O-Shay60 Excuse me for not being specific..but was close sir.
@@ericbrown-ti5kb not even close, two entirely different transmissions. Although it is possible he does have the 200C wit the V6. If so, it is much shorter than the TH350, therefore the drive shaft would be a different length, which makes your comment moot.
If your that smart I did mentioned the possibility..as a master technician for over 40 years and at the age of sixty..AND rebuilt transmission back in the day..really forgot about that type of transmission as well..that is why people like me don't like to comment on anything because of people like you with your dumb ass!
Those sockets are 89.00 bucks. I would put those fans on relays .
That carburetors junkhead if you got a good when I change it
I want to first say I got the exact same aluminum grill in my El Camino, and I was wondering about your radiator is it just a regular core or is it three tier core?
3 core
😢 You've got a pulley on the front of that 305 that you've got to sit in front of your shop Can't hurt putting a new radio in it anyway
Dude, your comments make absolutely no sense at all
🧐 Is there a possibility that Joebrock is actually Joe Biden?
FJB! LGB!🇺🇸
Get her done Lee! 🎉
Lee, have you thought about hoiking up a coolant temp sensor to the radiator fan so that ut will turn on only when it needs to be on?
What do you like about them el Camino so much?
they come to me, I don't seek them out
Anyone that knows something knows thats not a limited slip its a peg leg differential.
it spins both tires yet doesn't have clutches in it. What's it called?
@@clunkersandclassicsWhat is commonly called a "posi" rearend is technically a limited slip rearend. They have a tag on one of the cover bolts that says use limited slip differential oil only. A non posi rearend can be called an open differential. When you spin one wheel the other is probably turning the opposite direction.
Lee take that little rod off the side of the carb I promise you it will fix your 4 barrel problem
Lee does your 1500 towpig have trouble pulling your trailer I'm getting a 20' dovetail car hauler trailer with a solid metal top and my brother told me that my half ton Tahoe will be able to pull it in need to upgrade to a 2500...
I never did hook up my trailer to the Avalanche so don't know. I've towed cars with my 1500 black truck no problem.
You don't have to just take the column out of the one of the 2 cars you got and put it in there it's the same column
Looks like uh maybe free is owner changed it
Holly fixes all carburetors issues that's probably got the factory car breaker on it from whatever mind it isn't it and it's probably the that's got electronic idol thing on it and if a boxing and if that doesn't see this didn't know from the distributor it doesn't work right so do you throw a carburetor in garbage I'll get an air block or a holiday in my case maybe even a demon depending on what you can find Problems For You Don't Freedom price until some of my car ritters aren't Bad they're just a rebranded Holly Actually
Hopefully not a cat turd
