Take full advantage of the gift you've been given Noah, this man makes MacGiver look slow awkward and slightly disadvantaged. The man is a veritable warehouse of automotive knowledge and a bottomless pit at that. Mike
Well, hot damn!. That old engine has a nice rhythm. I've seen some dirty air filters in my time, but that one is a prize winner. "If it's worn out when they park it, it'll be worn out when you go to start it". Yep. No doubt about it. Nice job.
Noah lucky to be working for you.. He is blessed in my eyes... He most be learning a world of knowledge from you Jonathan... Wish I was in his shoes brother... Great job on the car and all that u do sir...
That engine turned out way beyond my expectations, i was concerned about the rocker arms oiling, but after your explanation I'm happy. When i was in Noah's shoes the guy would introduce me as his adopted son, family isnt always blood related.
I sure hope this isn't the last video on the Nash. Gotta let us see this through to completion! She sure is running nice, I didn't have much hope for this working out the way it has. Well done!
i had someone take me under their wing when i was around noahs age and 20 years later i realized without that person that treated me like a friend rather than an employee i would not have got to where i am today.. thanks bruce foster
When I was in the army we warmed up food on the exhaust manifold all the time. That Old 6 in-line Nash sounds great. I was glad when you finally started running water through it. That kid is getting a marvelous education from you. He will be able to fix just about anything through the course of his life. Keep up the great work. Can’t wait to see that boy driving the Nash.
That head is so cool with that integral intake manifold and the design of the exhaust manifold! Love to see the different engine designs. Runs great! Great job Jonathan and Noah!
Thats call experience. Getting a kit thay matches even when the systems says that it does not exist. Your brain found it and order it. And bialaah... Everything matches... Wao!
Great work. I love all pre-1952 Nashes. The '49-'51 Airflights are my favs. When I was kid I was always in the garage with my father or older brother helping doing something with cars. That was the days when you could be a home mechanic. I still love the smell of grease and oil. Noah is experiencing what it was like then first hand with real old time iron. I'm envious!
Noah just works for me...ha. You ain't fooling anybody with one eye and half-sense. That boy belongs to both you and his family now any way you cut it. And y'all are both better off for it. Hard to find boys like that now. Ones that will dig in a mouse nest without even hesitating. I grew up with guys like you. The only way you knew if you fit was if they picked on you a little. Anybody else they just left alone. Wish they weren't all gone. I miss every one of them. Doc
It's a great help that you remember all the carburetor facts and find a carb kit for a car 14 years newer and of another make to get your Nash running. Noah makes a good engine surgery nurse, holding up an IV bottle of medicine.
There were some of these in Australia. They may have been brought in as a rolling chassis and local Holden bodies built onto them which was common with many american cars pre-war and immediate post-war. One day, whilst doing some repairs, parents of some friends of mine who owned a well-used one discovered an actuator on the gearbox which did not seem to be doing anything as it was not connected to any control linkage. They discovered that for some strange reason, an overdrive system was not enabled in the Australian cars. A short piece of fence wire through a snug hole in the floor and a loop for a handle was the next move. On open roads that car was a delight to ride in and listen to. Our Holden cars built from 1948 were revving their guts out for the same speeds this car was travelling at with no fuss from the engine at all.
It was great to see you dial in that carburetor so quickly. Definitely a lost art. Too bad most manufacturers got away from the inline 6 because they're really good running engines. I had to laugh at the expression on Noah's face when you were instructing him the operation of the now extinct three on the tree! Looked like he'd just seen a ghost, but then again column change gear shifts are strange spirits from the past! I'm sure your son--and grandson and Noah--are all going to have a blast in the old Nash, and I'm looking forward to future progress reports. Nice work bringing this one back from the dead, JW.
I just bought a 1989 F150 Custom Standard Cab 4.9L 300 L6 EFI, 145HP, 206ft # of torque @ 2000rpm Long bed for $400, all the glass is good, most of the sheet metal is mostly there. 200K miles so almost broke in. Those engines are good for 300K+ miles before opening them, except for rear seal. 5spd granny 1st, OD 5th. Twin tanks so even at 17mpg I can go aways. Going to lose the bed and get an utility body for it. If I don't drive faster than 55mph I should be getting almost 20mpg. Thinking about getting a rear end with even taller gears, 2.73:1 would be nice, lower rpm - I could probably run 60mph at 2000rpm! I'm going to be replacing all the brakes, rotors, lines and hoses. Switching headlights to LED and getting the Harbor Freight headlight restore kit. I'l have to recover the lower bench seat cushion, my mum has some Southwest Airlines seat wool still, great seat fabric.
@@RobiSydney I've owned many trucks with the 300 it's one of the best six cylinders ever built unbeatable torque. In my 77 four wheel drive it would just fast idle through deep mud, and guys with v8 would have to hammer it to get through.
@@RobiSydney Good luck with your new truck. I drive a 1960 Ford F-350 stake body one-ton truck. It has dual rear wheels, a 4-speed transmission with 1st a granny gear, 5.84:1 gears in the differential and is powered by a 223 cubic inch inline 6 (138 advertised HP). It will do 65 mph flat out, but the engine absolutely screams at that speed, so I drive between 40 and 50 mph on rural two lane roads. I get between 9 and 11 mpg, but considering the truck can pull practically anything and doesn't even notice a ton of gravel in the bed, I think it's just fine. Gotta love those bulletproof inline sixes!
That's a happy Nash, very sweet indeed. I wonder if the reason it was parked up was because the owner was rebuilding the engine after having it bored and all and then couldn't finish it for some reason. Someone clearly loved it to spend all the money on getting the engine machined...
I always thought Noah was your grandson. Learn something new every day! Well, Noah sure is a good hand to have around and will know more than most when it comes to cars thanks to you. He is being given a great opportunity and I hope he realizes that. What I would have given to be Noah when I was a kid!
Like Noah said, pretty good! I was shocked how lil noise it was make with the cover off and open pipes. Another great find! Don't know how you find all these gems, just keep saving them.
Outstanding video. Willard Strange, a dear friend who had a Marathon gas station in Howell, had one of these that belonged to his father. The engine was identical with the oil bath air cleaner and the Carter carburetor. I was always amazed at how smooth and quiet it was when it ran.
I don't think a man could ask for something that close to dying to ever run that good. People are proud to get a car o theirs a running even close to that. I don't have a clue in my head at the moment as to how to make a generator produce 12 volts but I do know its been done. I know that it can't be as simple as putting a voltage regulator on. That just would be too easy. Maybe your friend J. C. would know, he sure has those 6.7 ford powerstroke engines down... could find a better man to be friends with and he is like you when it comes to making it work. You two are the masters of mechanics, in other words.. the best in your fields of choice. So happy for you Jonathan and I truly mean that!! That car will go nicely in your car collection and things are going your way for a while. Hope the rotating wrecker comes out like this is going for you at the moment with 50 sedan panel truck, the nash, and more not mentioned, you do have a busy day ahead.. Cheers
What an education you are given Noah. I'm just old enough to remember point, plugs and condenser. That was the tune up routine. Thanks for the channel.
Electric co-ops are the best! I have the utmost respect for the linemen. They work in the absolute worst conditions. I worked for one in Ohio for 37 years but in the cushy office. Be safe!
Noah..if you ever work on some of these so called cars and truck of today...just remember under all that computerized junk and injection...is a combustion engine (so I've been told...lol)
Carter YF, I thought that carb looked familiar ;). My '51 Willys CJ3A had one. On the early '90s the bowl corroded through. Could not find a rebuilt or new. They said they had no cores. A buddy of mine had one for an early '70s AMC grenlin. Was almost the same, just hacksawed the electric choke off and hooked up the manual choke.
Jonathan, I'm a recent visitor and I'm very impressed with your program. I never got to tear down a motor or carburetor but I wish I had. I think you should show how to pull a OLD motor , rebuild every thing and put it back together! Especially an old 2 barrel carb! Show all the intricate parts and what they do. My friend and I tore my fathers 50 Plymouth carb apart and had small parts left over and the thing still ran!
Noah you are lucky to be working with a master who could properly make anything run including a chocolate cake. Ha ha. Learn from him and it will serve you well your entire life and in time maybe your kids. But remember to keep him on his toes from time to time ha ha I did with the bloke who taught me. 1000 years ago. Great work on the Nash 👍👍😎
You'd be surprised how many parts on older cars match other older cars. Example, the rear diff in my 88 Volvo is the same as a late 60s to I think early 70s Corvette. It's pretty sweet finding these things out.
I needed to go to the grocery store today but couldn't get away (too much activity & secondary gaurd showed up late)...l should get to the store tomorrow - l'm adding hot dogs to the list...thanks Jonathan - that was a good one...car sounds good...Jordan looks like he lost a few pounds
That engine was the oldest design used in U.S. cars, from 1916 until at least the 1970's. That is why the skimpy oiling of the overhead gear. I think this was the first overhead valve engine with automatic oiling. Everybody else with overhead valves had a felt cloth above the rockers that you oiled once every hundred miles.
Great to see the car running so well. I looked at a '57 Chevy with a 235 yesterday that could sure use your touch. Both those boys are blessed to have you in their lives....
Looking and sounding great. The Nash series are the first of your videos I’ve watched and I like what I’m learning. You probably know, but in case you don’t, that oil bath air cleaner should be positioned across the engine, over the valve cover, likely not at 90° but about 45° toward the front. That spring disc underneath the bottom of the oil bath bowl is for mounting an angle support bracket that would hold it in rigid position above the block: it’s a long air cleaner! My 48 Packard has a very similar arrangement. Keep the videos coming 👍🏻👍🏻
as a kid my neighbor had his 1951(?) chevrolet sedan idle speed set as low as he could get it without the car stalling in cold weather. spun so slow you could easily count every cylinder firing.
Great Job!! Soon You'll have Noah schooled and will have bragging rights of mastering the old "Three on a Tree". Your definitely giving him a great set of building blocks for a career in auto restoration if that's the path he chooses.
Great work as usual. Keep the videos coming. I may not be into every vehicle you work on but I always learn something new or Interesting. Thank you for posting.
Great videos Jonathan!! Noah better be paying you for the knowledge he is getting from you!! Lol. He's the only guy in his high school that knows what a 3 or 4 on the tree is and how to shift it!!! Keep it up Jonathan one of these days I'll make it to one of your cruise in's I live in Florida so it will be a day trip lol.. thanks for the awesome videos!!
Great job Jonathan you do good work saving them cars and keeping them going , anybody that says you shouldn't do it this way or you shouldn't do it that way don't pay attention what you're doing is perfect keeping the the cars alive
You are teaching them well. Its nice to see young boys morph into real men that can handle anything instead of becoming fluorescent hallway drones in some office.
Damn that thing runs great now all it needed was a little TLC on that carb and the trasnmission looks to work too you should of took it for a spin LOL!! Your son still wants that car I take it
Ah, A great video again, Jonathan. This `0l Car Will Run Again on the Road's❕ I hope your boy keeps it stock with all the work you have done to the Engine already. I would love this `0l Nash sett'n in my shop.
I still drove a Rambler in the 90s as my everyday car. It also had the 196 OHV engine, ( Nash /Rambler /AMC had 3 different engines with that displacement, including a flathead) they were all excellent engines, not huge power monsters, but solid, smooth, economical engines. I was trying to find a carb kit for mine around 88-89 and wasn’t having any luck. My small town parts guy really surprised me with: “no kit for that but how about this?” As he placed a new carb, not a reman, in the original box on the counter, $55.00, no core required. That carb is still on that engine, although the guy I sold it to wrecked it, and it’s still in his yard, on blocks behind the barn. Been there since 92 or so. Some of the AMC 196 engines were equipped with an equivalent one eyed Holley, set up the same. Simple and reliable.

It was nice to see Jordan make a cameo appearance. I hope all is going well with his house! Great work Noah, you are doing great!
Haha I lost it when you took that hot dog out of the engine.😄
You are a MASTER mechanic! Job well done.
Amazing how parts for a 1962 Chevy are able to fit a 1948 Nash.

It's a Carter carburetor that allot of different companies used on their cars.

That thing runs like butter, especially considering how it looked when you first got it!
I knew you could do it!... Thanks for passing your life lessons on down to Future Generations...
That engine was the oldest design used in U.S. cars, from 1916 until at least the 1970's. That is why the skimpy oiling of the overhead gear. I think this was the first overhead valve engine with automatic oiling. Everybody else with overhead valves had a felt cloth above the rockers that you oiled once every hundred miles.
You sure do have that old Nash purring like it should! Glad you got it running and it should be good enough to use for a daily driver!
You're a good and patient parent. Doing well with Noah as I'm sure you've done with your own kids. Nice to see.
Great to see the car running so well. I looked at a '57 Chevy with a 235 yesterday that could sure use your touch. Both those boys are blessed to have you in their lives....
Looking and sounding great. The Nash series are the first of your videos I’ve watched and I like what I’m learning. You probably know, but in case you don’t, that oil bath air cleaner should be positioned across the engine, over the valve cover, likely not at 90° but about 45° toward the front.

My 48 Packard has a very similar arrangement. Keep the videos coming 👍🏻👍🏻
Noah gets a priceless education and lunch. I'm jealous.
Sounds Sweet! Love this Nash!...Newk from Kentucky
Enjoy your videos keeping that old steel running. Noah learn all you can from Jonathan.
as a kid my neighbor had his 1951(?) chevrolet sedan idle speed set as low as he could get it without the car stalling in cold weather. spun so slow you could easily count every cylinder firing.
Beautiful. It's worthy of brakes and muffler. It sounds wonderful. Can't wait for a drive! Funs fun.
Noah is one lucky kid hopefully he understands this will last him a life time.
Great Job!! Soon You'll have Noah schooled and will have bragging rights of mastering the old "Three on a Tree". Your definitely giving him a great set of building blocks for a career in auto restoration if that's the path he chooses.
As Taryl would say - There's your dinner! Great job again Jonathan.
You’ve got it running so darn smooth , it’s a sweet running engine ! Great job ! Thanks for another great video totally enjoyed !
Nash had the weenie roaster engine block way back in '48. Chevy and Ford didn't have that until the '60s!
Great work as usual. Keep the videos coming. I may not be into every vehicle you work on but I always learn something new or Interesting. Thank you for posting.
You are an ace in resurrecting this old iron.👌
Great videos Jonathan!! Noah better be paying you for the knowledge he is getting from you!! Lol. He's the only guy in his high school that knows what a 3 or 4 on the tree is and how to shift it!!! Keep it up Jonathan one of these days I'll make it to one of your cruise in's I live in Florida so it will be a day trip lol.. thanks for the awesome videos!!
That engine runs SMOOTH. Man, you are good! But you make it look easier than it really is. 😊
Best of luck to you and Noah.
cant believe how great that engine sounds very power full thanks
Great job Jonathan you do good work saving them cars and keeping them going , anybody that says you shouldn't do it this way or you shouldn't do it that way don't pay attention what you're doing is perfect keeping the the cars alive
You are teaching them well. Its nice to see young boys morph into real men that can handle anything instead of becoming fluorescent hallway drones in some office.
Damn that thing runs great now all it needed was a little TLC on that carb and the trasnmission looks to work too you should of took it for a spin LOL!! Your son still wants that car I take it

Those are so nice back in the day those old inlines where some of the smoothest most balanced engines ever
Enjoying this one a lot. Really good work and am learning stuff also. Thanks for sharing this.
Great work on that engine ... the proof is when it would idle that low ...good tune and every piston is equal .wow
thanks for the explanation on the oiling - I was wondering that too......
Good job Noah, keeping Jonathan focused on gettting it running!!

One good thing about old carburetors. the more they changed, the more they stayed the same.
I still drove a Rambler in the 90s as my everyday car. It also had the 196 OHV engine, ( Nash /Rambler /AMC had 3 different engines with that displacement, including a flathead) they were all excellent engines, not huge power monsters, but solid, smooth, economical engines. I was trying to find a carb kit for mine around 88-89 and wasn’t having any luck. My small town parts guy really surprised me with: “no kit for that but how about this?” As he placed a new carb, not a reman, in the original box on the counter, $55.00, no core required. That carb is still on that engine, although the guy I sold it to wrecked it, and it’s still in his yard, on blocks behind the barn. Been there since 92 or so. Some of the AMC 196 engines were equipped with an equivalent one eyed Holley, set up the same. Simple and reliable.
I wish I had Noah's job, didn't know you supplied him with a lunch. Engine sounds good, can't wait to see it drive down the road.
Lovely smooth running old motor !
