Aaron's laid-back, no care or worries expressions are priceless and made this video that much more enjoyable and exciting. Happy to see both of you enjoying the "Ride"
Yeah a real beta he is
Aaron’s laid-back easy-going attitude rocks. Emily and Erin work very well together. I hope and pray that their relationship is as tight as a guitar string
I think it is great that "The Kid!" likes helping in the shop.
The Dynamic Duo are back once again to finish the job!!!! Superior job on completing the T56 transmission... now you know you'll have a 'Vette that'll run for a good long time!!!!!! From the home of PB Blaster and Permatex... Cleveland, Ohio............
Looks all good to me! That new shifter rocks.
Like the tip about sealed bearings, have salvaged several rear axle bearings in the past that are sealed like that after an axle seal failure where the gear oil washes out the grease. Pop the seal out very carefully and rinse the bearing w/brake cleaner, then dry out and repack with good wheel bearing grease! Reinstall w/fresh seal and happy motoring!
Great job on install, lot of stuff but it falls right into place.(I can say that, being a retired mechanic w/35+ years in the business)go enjoy this car now, and thank you all for a great video! God bless you!
not only watching for the mechanic-n stuff, love the positive vib!
So awesome to see the Vette going back together. But to me what’s even better is to see your niece wrenching on this car and learning how to actually fix things. Kudos to Emily and Aaron for teaching the next generation!
So glad Aaron is recovering and that you two are in a good place. God bless
What a beautiful thing.
Not just the Corvette, but seeing you guys in a happy place!
WIN!!!! 😎
Great job you two!
Love y'all incorporating the "kid" in the grease work. She's getting so big. Love y'alls videos.
Well done guys,great job. That was a big job Aaron took on there ,not for the faint hearted lol👍.
I just stumbled across your channel ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ and I am taken in by your contents I’m so impressed with you guy’s relationship and the way you both support each other and interact together, I’m a late blooming senior AARP’er was married to 50.5 years widower for 9 years now. I’ve never seen a couple that compliments the other as much as you guys. So …. DON’T BLINK 😊
I'm so happy to see my other favorite family, back at it,the kid,reminds me of my niece aka God Daughter,she cracks me up,you guys,bring a smile to my face,I truly love and adore you guys and Mr.Finley back in action,God Bless ,Love❤Jim
You did an extraordinary job on that transmission rebuild!!!
Team work makes the Dream work. Great job on getting another one in the books. That exhaust is Killer.
Don’t hide the struggles you have. Watching that kind of stuff is what keeps your channel realistic and helps keep the average Joe interested. Wrong or right, it’s good to see others struggling sometimes. It helps keep our spirits up when we’re dealing with the same kind of mechanical struggles.
So true.
Awesome work. So glad to see Aaron's shoulders are doing great. Y'all look so great together. Enjoy the ride.
That's a definite win in the books. Be proud of that accomplishment very low percentage of folks out there would even attempt such a task let alone be successful at it. Hope it lasts a long time. Sounds great too. LOVE the V8 rumble. I miss my V8... one day I'll be rumblin' again.
Great job. Summer is here go out and enjoy that boat and corvette. Again great job!!!!
Great job guys! It is such a wonderful feeling to have accomplished the transmission rebuild and know that it should be good to go for a long time. I hope that you folks enjoy that car for many years to come. Thanks for taking us along.
Congratulations. Looks and sounds Great! Thx for bringing us along!!!😊😊😊 Ken
Awesome! I'd love to see some more content on the old camper truck. Getting to be camping season.
The smile on Arron's face says it all as y'all are tooling down tha road.
AWESOME TEAM WORK WITH THE KID.
I remember back in the day (50's-60's) when one would need do the odd wheel bearing maintenance. Remove, repair or replace and repack with fresh grease. Such fun.
I'd let im' eat the squirrels. I am impressed with the attention to detail in the assembly process. I think I would have cleaned the grounding surfaces a bit more and added some dialectric grease; but it is your project. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
I love seeing you two working together. Ya'll are relationship goals.
i love seeing y'all in the garage. I learn stuff watching y'all. Here is a like and comment to help your channel grow and get you the recognition you deserve.
Congratulations on a difficult rebuild job. Lots of aggravating "small things" to tidy up after the complicated work was done. Great to have your Niece there to help and I liked her 70's Demon T-shirt. Finley was on the job in the background for moral support as usual and had a hard time waiting for a ride.
It will be fun to see what your next project is going to be!
Take care,
jack
Great to see the C-5 going back together and you guys working in the shop Aaron looks good. Love y’all.
Sry that was long, I’m a master mechanic and I’ve seen a lot of messed up brake jobs, google is your friend, love the channel, I’ve watched every show so far , I’d comment more but I’m not so great with letters and such 🇨🇦 Roger Hines saying keep having fun, if it’s work your doing it wrong ❤️
I’m so thankful for Aaron’s recovery! Your support Emily is the key!
The methodical way you approached the repair was impressive. So glad it’s back together and running/working so well!! Congratulations you two!
Morning Y'all... Don't know if anyone has mentioned it yet, but an old trick to keeping your Ralph the tractor planted to the ground, is fill your tires with water, that should keep you safe by giving you enough ballast for the heavier lifts. Only draw back is... You'll have to limit the high speed passes. LOL
I love you all so much, love to see you guys wrenching. I'm so happy with Arens recovering, love to watch the two of you guys. Love you all. God bless 🙏.
Sure appreciate your love!
Great project - C5 owner here - challenging cars to work on - love the views of the torque tube and transaxle
Great job you two. Being a C5 and GTO owner I know the feeling of success when you get something done.
Great job on the trans rebuild. Have really enjoyed this series. Glad you went all the way thru it rather than a quick fix then tear it all apart again. Great job! Thanks for sharing!
What fun working altogether, that kid is going to be hooked, if she is not already.
I’m so jealous….kudos on a successful transmission rebuild.
This is awesome!! It's great when you try something new and it works out. CONGRATULATIONS!! Also great to see "The Kid" working with you.
I laughed out loud about what was said about the snake. Too funny! And your expressions were perfect!
It is said it is more important to look good than to feel good, and you do!
Good job guys! The kid sure is growing up, leaps and bounds.
A great car channel. Taught us enough to get the courage to do it ourselves if needs be.
Holy cow the little one is not a little one any longer. For god sake how long
have I been watching this channel. She was just a baby like ….what last week. Damn I hate getting old
Next generation of gear head in process! You guys are awesome!!
Emily, you remind me so much of the late, great, Jessi Combs! I really enjoyed watching this build! I can't wait for the kid to have her own rebuild project 😉
Emily & Aaron, that Vette sounds Fantastic, Aaron for never have built a Manuel Transmission you did an awesome job and it RIPS.
So glad Aaron is doing pretty well after his medical fiasco. I know that after a problem, in my case I never got back to 100%. Aaron is young, hopefully he will be Superman in a while. Love your videos guys. Love this trans rebuild. I had the chance to buy a late model ZO something for $2500, he said clutch blew! Still wasn’t worth it too me. You guys have guts tackling this car!!!!! ❤️👍👍👍👍👍
you did a great job on the clean up for sure I like your channel and enjoy what the 2 of you do together thank you.
Great job. Your enthusiasm and happiness for the car really shows. I look forward to seeing more videos of the vett. Make it yours.😊
Nice rebuild, enjoy the miles! Well, share a few of them with us... Great to see the grins & giggles! Thanx !
No other words just ... OUTSTANDING! Congratulations guys!
I love it you are teaching that young lady how to work on cars.
The exhaust system sounds great. Glad the transmission is working. Congratulations
I Super enjoyed your Arazona Hot Spring Hike..More is Better..JUMP IN..MORE..
You guys are doing a great job. And you teach the younger generation!
Next video, I would like to see a street view of the T56 being driven about. I enjoyed the rebuild and was trying to help on a couple of those tough bolts. Great project.😉
I want to say you are doing a great job by teaching the young one that it is ok to get your hands dirty and you are passing the torch .keep up the good work love you guys
For every bad snake there are a dozen good snakes, and they all want to avoid you as much as you may want to avoid them. Great job on the transmission, that was not a simple overhaul! I had cutouts on all my youth hot rods, but mostly only opened at the drag strip.
I hate donut tires. My Ram Limited came with 22" wheels, which I like, but had to replace the tires with ones with some sidewalls. (I also like narrow side walls, or white lettering on my tires, but couldn't find any of those for it.)
Any time you have the rear cover off the engine it’s not a bad idea to replace the barbell in the back. Wife and I enjoy watching you two work together in the shop. And it’s amazing how big the kid is getting.
You guys rock, and have a lot more courage then I, never would I have tried rebuilding the trans. Only complaint I have is I would love more videos from y’all. Keep up the fun!
That is awesome y'all! Keep the great content coming. I hope to run into y'all some day since we share the same neck of the woods.
nice job, satisfying seeing the quality of your work getting all the wire harnesses routed and clipped back in!
Camping season is almost here! Time to get the RV in shape for the trip to the lake in Arkansas!
Glad to see Aaron has more range in his arms!
I love seeing kids turning wrenches!
Little trick when putting your wheels back on. Raise the car to where the axle is about chest height.Set the wheel on the ground with the outside of the wheel facing away from you.grab the face of the wheel near the ground and pivot it up using the tops of your legs as a pivot point.Weight of the wheel will be resting on your thighs.with some practice you can install very large wheels with ease.Old mechanic taught me that.
Truly inspiring folks, love the content and the teamwork... Gets me revving for more time in the garage myself! Looking forward to watching the next episode - keep up the great work!
Yeah. Mission accomplished. Feels good doesn't it! You don't want to do that again. Congrats y'all.
Nice work you two. Another fun car to drive and the satisfaction of doing it yourselves.
Lots of smiles on this video ! And I think it would be soooo cool now on to the 300z and put them side by side. ? 🤔😆
Love the vides . Always put something under the lift arms of the lift . The lift only locks at certain points . Sooo put a rim or something for safety❤😊
Yeah😂 thats always my wife's first response when there is an unwanted guest in the house. 🔥 it down. It will be fine.
The Kid is growing up so fast. I have a Roxie to, my wife...lol
Kid is going to be one good mercanic and i am proud of her
11 year old's are great helpers.
Hey guys, your best video yet. I really love seeing you both wrenching on cars together. Makes my day, Keep moving forward.
You two are such an awesome team, what the two of you did with the Corvette is off the charts. Redoing the transaxle and having it work perfect speaks volumes of your talents!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the exhaust system by the way.
Glad you got the vette Rollin!!! Time to make it LOPE!
great job Emily & Arron wow so awesome. As another famous Texan once said, " Let er rip Tater chip" so cool.
Congratulations on a finished project.
A challenging job well done by you, enjoy the result Emily and Aaron.
Congratulations! Y'all are awesome! Enjoy the ride paid for by your hard work. Be safe!
Would love to see more work on the cargo trailer. I really liked that series of builds.
Awesome. Glad to see you got that transmission back together. Never a doubt but still a major accomplishment. I'm not sure my "what I'd like to see next" is necessarily wrenching and it likely will take some planning so won't be "next". I'd love to see you go to OK and get that chevy COE and get her back to the shop. Maybe do a video (or series of videos) on "inspecting" barn finds and developing a plan for a project. Are you going to just get it running and driving? Do a body swap? Restomod? That thing would make a cool tow rig if you did a body swap onto a 3/4 ton or 1 ton late model platform.
Whatever you decide to do, keep having fun with it.
Can't wait till Roxy and the Vette go racing! Give the LUV some turbo love
love seeing kids involved. gotta start them young
Seen ‘em all and the ending of this one is special………love ya’ll back
As a fellow Corvette owner, I think all of this is cool, but the coolest part by far is seeing Aaron getting both arms up over his head and working. Good work buddy! 👍
Beautiful sound , beautiful people, first rate outstanding job well done . What a machine. Take care, and say safe.
So cool to see The Kid helping you guys out!
Love that little girl! She is awesome! The future in our sport! Kudos to you guys for encouraging her!
LOL! Years ago I came home and our kitty was hissing at something in the corner of the garage but I couldn't see anything. Later I was under the car and looked over at a small king snake looking at me. Turned out it was the snake doing the hissing at the cat (LOL). Yep bumped my head several times trying to get out from under that car (even though those snakes are not poisonous)!
Just an idea, get yourselves some colored Sharpy markers so when you're doing a large project with lots of fasteners, you can mark each one after you tighen/torque them. That way when you second guess yourself, you can just look to see if the fastener is marked. And if you remove them another time during a different project, just use a different color marker. It's a good practice to get into a habit, also great if you have to postpone a partial project waiting for parts etc. You can look to make sure you tightened them or not the last time you worked on it..
I know she's not a hot rod but I would love to see you working on the truck camper. I love that old girl.
That was a great video series! I truly enjoyed watching the two of you through the trials and tribulations.
When you fired your Vette up I could genuinely feel your enthusiasm. Your smiles were priceless. Well done! Good job! Corvette all the way!
Well done. Heck of an effort. Glad you did it all safely.
Doing a job this big successfully is like a litmus test you know how what it takes.
Congrats.
PS. will always love a C6 manual. Last of the great analog performance cars.
Well done ya'll 👍🏻I was waiting for you to pull out some bread to extract the pilot bearing.
The Kid is becoming quite a good help around the shop! She just dives right in! Good, we need more Motorhead Chicks, like you, Em! You've taught her well...👍👍👍
Yall are great. Congratulations on a very difficult build. Now no tickets and don't break it. Stay safe and dont over stress the shoulders.
Bravo,très beau résultat,ça à l’air de fonctionner à merveille, félicitations, à bientôt salut Jeannot ⚒😉
Great job and demonstrating that it can be done with just some curiosity and determination
