Kevin just took out 3 years of frustration on that car in 1 night. Awesome
Yessssss
Probably 4 years of frustration, that is, his four years of engineering education!
@@Captgreatvalue .
Is that what you kids call it these days.
@@waterloobear3159 what do you call it old timer
"Sharpy marks and a stepper bit. I got an engineering degree for this..." ain't that the truth
“The time for precise measurements was months ago. Now it’s time for sharpie marks and stepper bits”
Words to live by right there
“Skin on or off” Angus the gift that keeps on giving the look on mook’s face was priceless and the “it’s a napkin” comment
Yeah that's one of my favorite moments in this video :)
I love da look on Kevin's dad's face, as well :D
I love mook's unadulterated joy when it was coming to life.
Yes, she has delightfully-refreshing child-like innocence and joyful interest in ordinary nature-items (caterpillars, agates, waterfalls, etc.). :D
@@Quacks0 I legit did not understand like half of the things you said.
Literally the car that started me watching this channel which led me to every other restoration channel I watch. Amazing.
Right the gambler rulez
Was really cool to see that bad boy going
Omg guys I'm sorry for myself I missed this episode! She's such a BEAST! Showed up everyone at the party. 🥳 Worth the rod knock. 🤘 Way to go Guys!
Angus is such a chill guy, and seems like a proper good friend!
When that dude ate the skin on his burger i lost it. I love you guys. Thank you.
Mook : Thats a napkin.... Thank God i survived that one... She almost killed me
Angus is awesome. Did Kevin ever say how they met?
12:40 , the horrified look on Mook's face as he bit through the wrapper
@@brianhuff5346 Yeah, that look was priceless :D
That exhaust is CarsandCameras approved👌
Yup
Hi
“You ever been to high?”
“I don’t know if I’m allowed to say that”
Lost it lol
That car was like "I'm not driving around with a gas tank on my grill"...😂😂
"Now it's time for sharpie marks and stepper bits." I feel that in my soul, Kevin.
Sub count isn’t representative of the bad ass content we get from Junkyard digs . We need to get our boy to 1,000,000 subs . Share this shit .
Agreed
So you want to get Kevin's head shaved? 'Cause that's how you get Kevin's head shaved.
"Aw, he looking so fly with his arm hanging out the whole time!" Nah... the door just doesn't shut...
As I watched that wonderful Frankenstein's monster of a car doing that burn out at the end, all I could think was, "To think this car was flooded multiple times, and left for dead." Incredible watching these revivals! Keep it up!
It's SO good to see Smokey on the road after pulling her out of that flood bank. ^5.
Ok... I HAVE to say this... at first I wasn’t sure about Angus but now he is TOTALLY cool in my book AND in these already great video’s. In the words of Angus, “and now I will play you the song of my people.... Aahhaaauuaaahhhh !!!! “
HILAAAARIOUSSSS !!!!!!!
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
At that moment I really wondered if Angus and Mook were siblings! Plus the flinching when she told him to heck out of the passenger seat! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I always though Mook and Luke seemed related
I like how during one of the burnouts everyone starts backing up and then you see Mook heading into the smoke with the camera, that’s love right there. Lol 😂
Could we please take a second to admire the editing on that party section. Unbelievable. I'm in love with this car. I wish we had stuff like this in the UK.
Ive been waiting for this! hell ya brother!
fancy seeing you here, didnt take you for a car guy Roanoke.
@@sethl6626 exactly what i was thinking
There are a lot of people in North Carolina that loves all of you. Very much. Thank you all for the videos
Upstate south Carolina too!!😎👍
Northern Michigan too!!
I win, Czech Republic (Europe) reporting, that we are enjoying every episode (Mook ones included) :-)
Another north carlina native here I really appreciate and thoroughly enjoy all of your videos keep turning wrenches
Oklahoma too.
Nice to see Angus has become a regular, he knows his stuff and adds character to the channel.
Ordinarily I seriously frown in bewilderment at people doing burnouts but this my friend gets you a stern faced slow clap from this guy... Bravo, bravo....
I know right? Like it's cool and all but do burnouts means you will need to replace the tires way more.often.
That beast had probably got enough exhaust note to set off half the tuner cars alarms off. Totally Cool.
Buick 455 for ya!
12:41 Mook's shocked and puzzled "eeeewwww... gross" expression ("That's a **napkin**...!") is priceless :D
P.S. Shout-out to Kevin's dad, too --- his own sideways-look there is totally awesome, as well.
That is what we watch for, and getting to see some cool, beat-up old cars/trucks here and there is a nice aside. xD xP
@@donjear2226 So true --- well, ever since Cute Mook started being included in these videos with Kevin Brown and his pals, all da female-beauty-appreciating male watchers come here mainly to see her lovely face, cheeky smile, sunshiny-cheerful giggle, and adorably-amusing antics.
“It goes down like a ship with a big ass hole in it.”
Best description of 2021 so far.
Especially when 2020 was the apex of American history, right? The year with 500,000 dead 'cause they wouldn't wear a mask or drink bleach. Ring a bell?
@@curbmassa Nope. I'm more concerned about Biden getting us nuked than I am of an overblown Liberal freakout. But thanks for playing.
@@robdog1245 So fear is your comfort zone. Got it.
The only thing missing from your build is a roll cage and a light bar on the basket. Love it. Well done.
I've noticed a repeating theme, there is always a snowmobile in the way in that garage :) Also I think Angus gets more weird every episode, I like that guy.
He’s just letting us get used to him slowly. If he went full weirdness immediately people would probably be disturbed for life
Yeah angus is just warming up. Probably a little camera shy at first. We are all in for it now.
Give it a few weeks and he’ll be on a floor jack being dragged behind a car while eating a table
I feel like Kevin’s dad and Angus are also sponsors of this channel haha
Kevin, I love how honest and upfront you are when it comes to your projects, you don't try and pretend you have this master plan and everything always fits nicely into place. Gives a guy like me some hope and inspiration when my project car has been sitting for a few months waiting on money and life to be in the right place to work on her again. Love your channel, keep up the good work!
Sick Car, a clear demonstration of "there's no replacement for displacement" big block dreamin'
I wish there was a setting where if you clicked on a special notification Bell right when your notification pops up it would just play the video
JYD is one of my favorite channels on YT... and I watch a lot of channels! Kevin is very good at explaining what he is doing, and how things work (he reminds me of an engineer), and Mook is a perfect companion for him. Also, let Angus do all of the merch ads from now on... I almost bought some "Junkyard Merk Mooch"! Thanks!
Man this is so familiar. Back in the mid 80s I had a 70 Malibu with a Pontiac rear axle and a Buick 350, no door panels or headliner, and rusted out trunk. Perfect for the sand dunes, or so I thought. It would just dig straight down if I floored it in sand. That's why I love this video.
At the @ 42:08 mark I got goosebumps. For real. What a rig, that powertrain is perfection. One of the best horror shows I've seen, and the car looked like she had more in her, like she was barely trying. That thing looks and drives and sounds like it's right out of "The Road Warrior". I EFFING LOVE IT
Poston ran out of business in 2009 or 2010. This was a good brand.
Glad you went with a 455!
Great choice!
When you were spinning like a top I was thinking crap you’re going to starve the pickup of oil. Then you ended with Rod knock, yup... that sucks.
Worth it😂
can't wait to see this on power tour later this year. what a beast of a car.
Its great to watch you turn wrenches and drilling things this is why we all watch your shows
Angus inquiring about the sandwich skin was fantastic.
Ironically I just watched the whole blooper reel from 2 months ago and wondered when this car was gonna return, glad its back!
Oh man Smokey earned it's name that night! Damn thing donuts on a dime!
That was a most excellent night to see you all finally getting a rip around. I still hope we get too see this car gamblin' some day!
Thanks guys and Mook for taking us on this adventure, glad to see the old girl alive again. Looks like you guys had a blast burning some rubber off🤘🤘🤘✌✌✌👌👌👌
I didn't even recognize Angus without his jumpsuit. Also, I adore this car and am hunting for a Gambler project myself.
For a second I thought I saw Luke....bring back the ThunderHead.
Yea....enough angus already
Doubtful Luke will be back. He won’t work with Teng tools. Don’t think he likes how commercial it all is?
Luke moved a reasonable distance away from them and probably wont regularly feature in a video again sadly, He might show up as a special guest though.
23:40 Lol Angus hit us with a donut media “now back to da shooow” after the merch plug
That car is bad ass I've been watching this entire build from day one. Good job Kevin.
At least Kevin knows how to pronounce Corbeau compared to another popular CZcamsr. LOL
Oof😂
Who was it this time
B is for Build
Came here for this.
They really ought to make a Corbayo seat, just for the memes 😅
@@xkavarsmith9322 Oh it was THAT bad😂😂
Hell Yeah Kevin! been waiting for this since the beginning!!
Absolutely a great break in for the Gambler LeMans - LOVED IT!
"That's all stuff we'll deal with when we deal with that stuff." If you're ever wondering what it's like to have a project car that's it
need JYD at a cleetus and cars it seems. i like how a guy was giving her all the onions out there
"That's a napkin..."
I was dying laughing...
Yeah, that was priceless; her "eeeyewww..." expression is awesome. Father Brown gives a great expression there, as well. :D
I love this car! It looks sooooo badass with those gnarly big black tires and rims. Heck, every bit of new equipment bolted on to the awesomely weathered body, frame and engine of this Frankenstein's Monster of a car makes for such amazing contrast! Can't wait to buy a shirt with it! This is the Ruby of Gambler cars!
What a ride. Big kudos for making it just in time for the party.
Freaking awesome Kevin and Mook!!! Seeing the Lemans come from Junk to kickin butt was awesome!! Keep Angus in the videos he's a great guy.
ABG! I've been to the OG 2019 and CO 2020 gamblers, I would be stoked to run into you guys at a gambler event. Love this thing
I absolutely love the sound of glass packs with side dumps. Symphony of V8
Yes!! So exciting when a project comes together! Seeing the backfire glow when you revved her outside the shop was so cool.
She was born to smoke the tires!! Well done sir!
Placement of the exhaust turned out to be quite beneficial during your burnouts.
Nice job to ya team, and by the way, Mook, I hit the floor when you said that Kevin will look like a toe with his head shaved..🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watching the build was fun and it was a long wait but the end made it completely worth it
See Kevin, this is why you can't have nice things!!!
Lololol worth it
He has Mook, and SHE looks like a VERY nice "thing" to me :D
Can't wait to finish this. Keep up the great work!
"The time for exact measurements was months ago. Now it is sharpie marks and stepper bits." This speaks to my soul...
I can't afford to buy it from you , but I want it. I love everything about the car, from it's finely tuned and gorgeous engine, to its post-apocalyptic chic appearance. This is the car that made me your subscriber, great job guys and gal... just don't let this video be the last time I see that beautiful machine in action.
Well poop Kevin THAT was one of the best ending videos I've ever SEEN!
And the videography was fantastic! Music too!
And a good time was had by all.
Cheers.
I didn’t realize how high that thing sits until you see it driving down the road.
Just when you think it can’t get any better they make it better . The whole JYD universe is top notch stuff . Now get that Bronco running , way too nice to be sat there .
Wowdoggie! Yall did have you some fun down at that party! and ran her hard for just re-becoming ambulatory. That shot of the exhaust blowing through the tire smoke was sweet! With your tire choice, I was surprised the pull when to you.
Lmao dude I’m so happy for y’all and how this car turned out! Glad you had fun at the party lol dragging trucks out the parking lot 😂 loved the video 10/10
I love how the wildcat is exactly the same color as the lemans
So excited to see the Le Mans back under the knife and makin noise and tire smoke! Those clips of it ripping at the party gave me goosebumps! I vividly remember you dragging this out of that river bottom and it seemed hopeless at the time lol... On behalf of myself and the gang here at SWR, we really really enjoy Angus😂, better keep him around! Great episode! Thanks as always for the great content and inspiration! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Man I'm so glad to finally see this video happen!!! What a beaaaaast. Getting to see this and independence both come to life the same week, what a week!!
“I think that’s pretty much the coolest freaking thing we’ve ever made.”
👊
Glad y’all had some much dang fun with this!
IVE SPENT SO LONG WONDERING ABOUT THIS CAR. loved the build since it started
Went back to the first video and realized I missed a few. Was always great but you guys have come a long way. Keep em coming!
You laughed at Angus about his eating habit.. He asked first..lol
I love how the le mans does the best burnouts out of them all
Wasn't even close was it???
well yeah do you not understand the amount of torque in that car
Smokey lived! Even if just for a short while. So excited to see this car come to life. This is the car I came onto the channel watching.
This is a long awaited episode... gonna go ahead and give a preshow thumbs up!!! Looking forward to what happens with this beast!!!
Also glad to see the Lemans come back
45:00 she has stars in her eyes! 👌 now that's a happy little mook right there 🤩
I thought the very same thing!
If a lady makes that face during a burn out and helps you wrench put a RING on it my good man
"Have to be like an old chevy guy and tune it by ear"
Laughed so hard because on the day I'm watching this, I just talked with my grandpa yesterday after helping him with some body work on a 55 chevy and he was telling stories of how he would tune by ear/feel and either not use a timing light or just use it afterwards just to show anyone that it was correct :P
I gotta tell you, I really really enjoyed the videos you made with Luke. I wasn't so sure about Angus, but after seeing him working with you I do think he's a keeper. How can you not be a fan of a man in recycled coveralls? Good job Angus. Stay safe and thanks for sharing guys.
poston used to be the biggest buick supplier around they went out of business a few years ago. quality stuff though. similar to taperformance
Well and you know . . Now EVERYONE is just awaiting Angus’s first album release ! 🤓
needs some nice amber spot lights on the front of the luggage rack, looks badass guys great build so far
Something to consider; a highlighter for marking off the sharpie list; creates satisfaction because you can see what you've done. Love the show!
Someone needs to do an Anime-style animation of Kevin, Mook and Angus flying at a car, tools raised.
gonna play this on loop gotta see toe kevin
I think it's for Mooks latest video
@@cmgtbone her words "It goes for this video too" lol
Awesome! Thanks for the vid. Good to see the car drivin down the highway once again plus burning rubber up.
Best ever. What brought me to your channel. Glad to see you have a great time with it after so long.
Drive the oldsmobile you worked on. That was sweet
He gave it to his dad.
It's back!
The editing in the ending is simply epic. Finish(ish) LeMans. "We did hella good, Mook! Now lets go to a party!" Fist-bump. Queue house music. Rapid highway acceleration. Mook strikes a pose. Hair-flip. Smoky donuts. A truck-pull? Are you kidding me? Where do even go from here? *Pan to us all of us slow clapping for you guys*
Angus is a superstar! Too funny!
