Can you give this video a like, and reply telling me how dumb you think I am?
Man.. just keep living the dream for all of us.. if that's dumb then who would want to be not dumb?
You are very dumb but we love watching it!! Keep being dumb
Done!
Greetings from the Netherlands
The like was already done. Dumb? Not hardly - well bought! ~ Chuck
Doing burn outs in the Mona Lisa, silly boy
You break another car we're going to have to call you whistlinhoovie.
The collab we need
At least for the Land Rover resurrection. Demo shot the last one. MonsterMax can crush this one.
Imagine they traded car collections
…and that is a name YOU DON’T WANT associated with you in any, as it shared with a spoiled punk kid who destroys things without any logical reason.
BMW not Land Rover
See, I hope Hoovie never changes. You can count on him to cold rev a supercar, roast the tires on an old classic or jump what used to be an 80K SUV. Don't ever change Tyler.
Yesss!! This is why I am subscribed! He is fun without being a low IQ Stance Idiot. Love his variety of cars and presenting style
@@Epik-hm8ws or being an idiot to the same standards of whistlin diesel
Well he does proudly call himself the dumbest automotive youtuber.
X6m was 100k ❤️
CZcamsrs never learn they will break anything for content and clicks🤣🤣🤣🤣
That is a HUGE thing you're doing for Steve Magnante. Much respect.
If he waves all fees, he's Saint Hoovie. I'd not respect him one bit less if he allowed some good expense compensation. Hoovie's time is very valuable.
Never knew he was ill. Also didn't realize how many shows I watch that are him.
Great news that Steve Mags is out of the coma. God bless him with full recovery. Hoovie is quite the friend and much respect to him for helping Steve during this dreadful illness. 👍👍
Your next addition to the Hooptie fleet should be a flatbed of your own!
my brother-in-law collected cars and had his own flatbed. He ended up with more cars than Hoovie.
The cars would fall of while loading.
With all that Hoovie has he definitely should buy one. They are not that expensive compared to some of his cars.
But then he'll just have to call in an even bigger flatbed...
He owns a trailer I think. just nees a winch for broken Chevs,, and exotic crap.
The wizards shocked response to you doing burnouts "Who does that?!" was golden
Here's hoping that Steve recovers quickly and completely. Poor guy. How good of you for stepping up and filling in for him.
Good on you for keeping Steve's channel going. Prayers for his recovery.
Friend of mine, rest his soul, owned a 62. He always called it “the last real Vette, after that they were all Sting Rays”. His was even this color. Thanks for the memories. ~ Chuck. PS - you did an incredible job at Barrett Jackson and thank you again for helping Mr Magnante out - you’re a good man!
I liked the C2 as well, but C3 is when it all changed.
@@jjay350 actually no. The suspension changed in *1963* to fully independent, with a three link rear. Many people think the C2 used the same rear suspension as a C1, not so,. And in 1965, four wheel discs became standard. So C3 is not when it all changed at all.
@@jjay350yes like after 68'
I love this first ones
@@bbb462cid I mean the personality of the car but that is interesting technical info.
The original concept of the Vette was to be a mid engine car
It's good to hear that you're filling in for Steve on his youtube channel. You're a good man.
Thanks for stepping up for Steve at Barrett and especially on his channel. he is truly the record keeper of all things automotive it is amazing how different an auction is with his commentary versus car car car car:)
Hearing what you did for your friend just shows what a great person you are. Loving the vette.
I wonder if Hoovie sends his tow truck driver a Christmas card 😂
His tow truck driver sends him a Christmas Card!!
He's already sent his kids to college...
I am sure because of Hoovie the driver can get new trucks.
Hoovie's paid for this guy to have beachfront property in the Bahamas by now.
He doesnt send cards, he gives away cars for Christmas 😂
With this car, you are definitely not dumb! You got a killer deal on this puppy; congratulations! Very nice buy, Tyler, and again, good on ya for helping Steve out during his bout of bad health. Thanks, bud! ✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
The way he drove it was dumb.
@@swingersonianIt’s a car, it’s meant to be driven. Id rather watch him drive it rough break it and fix it than see it sit in some rich guys garage for years and never be driven.
@@swingersonian oh, any speed shop will have that part. Not too hard to source.
Steve’s channel is excellent, it’s awesome of you to fill in on his channel. Hope he’s back soon.
You and the wizards chemistry is infectious, and your interactions are completely genuine and awesome even when your tongue and cheeking it
Agreed
Thanks for filling in for Steve Mags! Really hoping he has a speedy recovery. Plus, I watched a good deal of the Barrett coverage, and Tyler, you did an outstanding job keeping up on the block! Well done, sir!!!
I feel even better about watching your videos after you mentioned filling in for Stephen Magnante at Barrett and more importantly making videos for Stephen so his youtube channel maintains its ranking on youtube; you are what you do Tyler !
I didn’t know Steve had a CZcams channel I absolutely love his show junkyard gold. I’m hope he gets well soon. And it’s super good of you to help him out on his channel.
So thankful that Steve is getting better.
That is great news! Hurry back Steve!
It was nice to see the after the Wizard fixed it part in the same video. Very satisfying.
Good on you for helping Steve out Hoovie.
Dude you’re a REAL ONE for filling in for Steve! Such a good heart you have sir 🖤
Wizard says “No more old cars”…so Hoovie brings him another old car.
Age is relative haha
Good on ya' Hoovie. Going extra while covering for your friend shows what an excellent guy you are. Keep being you.
Oh man, I love Steve! I hope he makes a full recovery. You two are great.
Good thing with this Corvette is it's a simple car and cheap to fix. Well worth doing a complete refresh under. Basically I would do everything. And clean up underbody as well. This art it's classic history. Ps it must have power brakes. Even a remote power booster... Top effort for helping Steve
You don’t need power brakes on these cars they don’t weigh much and have pretty large drums, dual master cylinder instead of the single and front discs are a good idea if you plan on driving a c1 in the mountains
Thanks for helping Steve out Tyler. Steve is a class act!
This might be the most beautiful silhouette / shape of a car I’ve ever seen in 50 years of loving cars.
I’m real jealous of you on this one, Hoovie! That’s my dream car right there. Also, the V8 in the Corvette started out as a 265 in ‘55, moved to a 283 in ‘57, and it finally got the 327 in ‘62. Such a cool car, can’t wait for more videos with this one!
Absolutely love Hoovie’s channel. Plus it’s always great when the Car Wizard is invited to participate in it. Cheers from Canada, men.👍🇨🇦🇺🇸
Sending love and prayers Steve’s way, thank you Hoovie!!
Finally....back to the vintage stuff!! Good stuff!!!
My absolute most favourite year! The shark tooth grille was gon, and it was devoid of all the extraneous chrome, with that sexy 61-62 rear end. You stole this! Hope you have some fun with her! She really deserves to be loved and appreciated! Congratulations!
The Steve Magnante video's are great. Thank you for helping him out.
You are the best, love your humor and banter with Car Wizard!
The modern radial tires have a lot more grip then the original bias ply. A lot more stress on drive line when burning out.
It's still a relatively big diff and had to have had slop in it to explode.
@@piuthemagicman Tolerances and materials have greatly improved since the 1960s. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a combination of additional grip + old materials + loose tolerances resulting in wear.
@@bwofficial1776 Or him mistreating a car...
Happy to see you do more content with Steve, sad to see it under these conditions. 'The enthusiasm and knowledge both of you share is a pleasure to watch. Get well soon Steve and I hope for more content with the both of you,
You're a good man for filling in for and helping out Steve.
i really really hope when Steve gets back to B-J that they keep you both on the block !! .. its so great to see the support he is getting from the auto world
Good video as usual, Great Carrr & also, Steve Magnante is the truth. We all wish him a speedy recovery !
You helped so many ppl already and continue to help furthermore, thanks Hoovie for being so awesome (y)
Good on you for covering for Steve. Keep up the good work.
The steel wheels and dog dish hubcaps are my favorite! Looks great!
Yuck. I hate the wheels. I think a nice set of wheels would make it look 10x better
It is really screaming for some white wall tires
@@harmharmsen4673 I agree. Something to break up all that red and black
David is exactly right.... "Who does that?".
Hoovie
@@davidhendricksgolfprofessi2321 I stopped being amazed/shocked by what he does to his cars long ago, but man.... be a bit more careful!
Thank you Tyler for helping Steve, like you he’s a National treasure…
Tyler, Thanks for stepping in to help Steve Mags. You’ve earned my sub because you’re willing to step up where so many others havent. Tell his family we wish him all the best, & would like more info about his condition & how to help.
It’s awesome to hear your helping your buddy Steve out, you’re a good dude hoovie, imma follow his page and support his channel cause of you
Hoovie living up to his tag line "Dumbest" - yup confirmed!
Dumbest would indicate a lack of knowledge. Stupid is better since it shows you knew better and didn't care.
Fantastic video brother please keep them coming and Fantastic to see you rebound after your personal stuff. God bless you Sir.
Thank you Hoovie for keeping us entertained, I look forward to your videos
Good to see you back doing what you do best finding the cheapest car and taking it to Wizard, and repairing it , this vette is Sweet! Very nice Hoopie!
Great to see hoovie doing what he does best hopefully Steve recovers well our prayers go out to him❤
Break cars…..is that what Hoovie does best?
Awesome how you're filling in for Steve left and right!!
Awesome as usual..Thanks for covering for Steve!!
Brings back old memories. The sound of the 327 cid 4 speed posi has the same resonance as some of the cars I grew up driving. WOW. 45 thousand a steal doesn't compute in my poor brain. God Bless you, Hoovie.
Yeah, top dollar is for matching numbers cars, generally. He didn't mention if this car is matching numbers, so I doubt it is. The diff is certainly not original now. I would have just changed the guts if it had the original diff.
I agree! 45K wasn’t exactly stealing it.
Hoovie is really one of the most underrated car youtube channels out there, love the content and the style of editing!!
Look, it’s another “underrated” comment on CZcams.🙄🥱
@@blueberrycobbler ok
@blueberrycobbler
Look, it’s another person so miserable they have to cut down people for leaving a nice comment.
You did really well on it but I'd still prefer the 1966. These drive like a truck. (and yes I've driven one, along with a 1967 and a 1970, and a 1974)
Damn that is such a cool car. Would love to drive one like that here in UK .
My father bought a 1962 red corvette in 1963 for $1961. He'll be celebrating his 91st birthday in December and I think I speak on his behalf with respect to your blowing out the diff by saying, "you moron!" At the same time, I can speak for me by expressing my envy. My dad sold his Vette long before I was born. I've only seen it in old color photos. I'd buy it if I had the means. Glad it is in The Wizard's capable hands. Kudos also for you filling in for Steve as well.
Yeah, Hoovie isn't dumb, but he does do some dumb things.
I turned on history channel the other day and was watching BJ and I heard your voice and got so excited dude you did a great job!! That family in the booth that won multiple cars and showed so much emotion was super awesome to see!
Hoovie is a stand up guy to help a brother in need!
Awesome score man, always liked the look of the C1
My personal favorite Corvette is the C3. Real shift in styling, but you got to get an early one without all the tacked on things.
Yes, A stylish "Hard Tail" and NOT that atrocious "Rubber Ducky." Just leave it to the Feds to totally Screw Up a good thing the very moment they see one. Dang!
I leered to drive with one of those. It was a beautiful experience. I’d buy another one today.
My first Corvette was a '73 that I bought when I was 18 or 19. Had a TON of fun with that car, joined a car club, toured around the country doing various events with the group, lots of social activities, all thanks to that car. Later I owned an '84 and then another C3, a '72 454 4spd roadster with factory hardtop. I should have kept that one. Oh well.
Always loved the midstyles, 63-67, but after driving in one, they seemed way too crude and rough riding, so I never bought one. My early C3s were crude enough.
Loved this Corvette segment.. in truth we look forward to everyone of your posts. ..Can’t wait for the next farm update.
Its cool that Hoovie has been subbing a bit for Steve Magnante. Class act. Shows a bit of Hoovie's character.
Well you finally did it... The '62 Vett is my favorite model. Being the last year of the 1st gen albeit w/o fuel injection it's the pinnacle of that model. The only difference from the split window is the shell. Blowing the diff was a blessing in disguise since you now have a possi read end. Congratulations!
Split window has a completely different rear suspension. Car wizard didn‘t mention a posi did he? Just a replacement kit that bolts right in.
@@Epik-hm8ws At 22:18 CW does mention replacing the open diff with a posi.
@@Epik-hm8ws Yes he mentioned the old one wasn't, but the new one was.
@@mythrusthelema My bad
You see, it's not just a car. It's a total image. An identity you have to go for. This isn't some high-tech sports car. Tell you the truth, it doesn't even handle that great. But that's not the idea, is it? What are we talking about here? P, right?
Let's face it. The 'Vette... gets 'em wet!
One thing unpleasant about vette ownership is the cultural baggage that comes with the car.
@@richardelliott8352
What baggage?
That was a fun movie
Really love watching videos with you and car wizard together,please do more👏👏👏👏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
An excellent example of a classic. Thanks for the video.
I think in this age of crazy fast specs, the driving experience has become the most desirable thing.
Damn! that is my favorite Corvette of ALL TIME.... My dad owned a '63 when I was a kid.... I was around Corvettes most of my life, but never owned one... I almost bought a '78, when in College, but my underbody inspection had me running, especially after driving it 5 miles and I heard "bad sounds" from the engine. I would love to own a '62 Vette... WOW!

Your production quality keeps steadily imrpoving. The intro here is pretty impressive, keep up the great work Hoovie!
Good man for helping Steve!
You could always do a few internal things to the engine to pep it up a little that way it still looks stock. As beautiful as it is I think I personally would have kept the 427 Vette. Just the sound of that engine alone.
Absolutely...As cool as '62 Vettes are...It's still a trade DOWN. Plus it had that monster Tremec 6 speed with the snick, snick shifter lever and linkage! Plus, it had the "Wizard Seal of Approval" and that's good enough for me any day.
I particularly enjoyed this one. I’m a fan of the 50s and 60s vettes. Everything since then is just a wedge on wheels. Anyhow I know it’s mechanically pretty simple but it’s cool.
Tyler, you're the man for helping Steve out.
So cool you filling in for your buddy good friend!
A points conversion might be a good addition while you have it apart. I've used several Pertronix kits, the oldest is working fine after 15 years. Really hard to go back to points once you have a set it and forget it system.
I put a Pertronix in my 351 Ford powered 1979 Mastercraft boat then removed it and reinstalled the original Prestolite points distributor. The Pertronix torque curve devalued performance even after trying several different distributor advances and retards. I'm sure that Pertronix engineers could build the distributer with a custom set torque curve but why bother? I just want the boat to start, pull a big load and have fun like it was designed for and put it back on the hoist at end of day. Towing a pyramid and multiple skiiers demands a flat and even predictable torque curve. The pertronix suffered mid range pep and that is what those boats require as well as takeoff power.
@@TruthPoliceLegend I can totally sea that being an issue if you do the full distributer replacement, the curves would be way wrong for that application. However I did a points conversion set in the original distributer for a 1986 Ski Nautique with a reverse rotation Ford 351 and it ran great. My 1985 Volvo aq124a stern drive also runs great with a conversion set.
Good info thanks, it was a full distributor replacement. I still have the Pertronix on the shelf--what to do? I wouldn't sell it without telling a buyer about the torque curve but am sure consulting the manufacturer might help. maybe they will take it back and can reassign an original profile Perhaps the curve is profiled for a car? It's running good so I'll leave it alone for now. @@SRMWorkshop
@@TruthPoliceLegend I would bet it's curved for a car. A curve for a boat should be similar to a curve for a heavy truck (F450-F550). If you are a standard rotation you should be safe to just sell it on, I think the only difference on the reverse rotation version is the drive gear but I'm not sure on that one. I did a different conversion for my truck, it was a Ford base with a GM HEI top. It seems to run fine but the power band is a bit weird. I suspect it's a similar issue to what you felt just not as extreme.
Hoovies really been targeting the boomer market since he started working with Barrett Jackson lol
What an awesome car, that beautiful engine soundtrack!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love these classic videos of yours!😎👍🏻
God bless you for helping Steve you've done an amazing job and I wish you all the best luv all your vids.
Hoovie seems like he’s doing well
It does! I’m very happy for him
Very cool, when you guys were driving around I immediately thought of the Route 66 TV show. Awesome find, hope you can enjoy it for years to come.
Great thing you are doing for Steve.
Hoovie is bulking up. Look at those guns. Its nice to see a very good and decent person in great health and feeling happy again.
I'll just go on the record to say I'd never let Hoovie drive any of my cars! lol
Your doing some good work for Steve, def selfless and awesome Hoovie!
That news about Steve is a heartbreaker. Get better, buddy. We’re pulling for you. Heading over to his channel now. Didn’t even know he had one.
Why doesn't it surprise me that Hoovie Broke it? LOL
Tyler you're a legend, you bring so much joy and educate us all as to why cars are money pits 😮.Don't ever stop .Ooh and when are you setting up Hoovies Car Ranch site ,for the 'new farm site '?
You know well all hit the red button .
Power to you fella !!
Great Buy Hoov.... So glad you're helping out Steve... " Magneto " rules
This is my favorite body style. A twin to this was on CL locally a couple years ago for $38k, and it was tough not to grab it. I've wanted one forever. Nice find, and I hope you enjoy it!
To Hoovie's defense, why own a Corvette that you can't use to do burn outs?
Just having a Manual transmission already makes it better than any C8
