Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 05. 2023
- This 400 powered Pontiac Catalina has been off the road for almost a decade. Think it will start? More importantly, think it will make the 150 mile journey back home? I hope so!

Thanks for keeping the will it run alive on your channel.
Always and forever
@@ViceGripGarage God bless you and yours
@@ViceGripGarage hi Derek
@@ViceGripGarage Derek, you have enough car batteries to power Minneapolis and Knoxville I think. Argh Argh.
@@ViceGripGarageAmen 👍
Discovered yesterday... this is simply the most compelling car channel on earth. Never have I ever learned more about sparkilators, fuel-make-happeners and digical things in such a short time. Just genius.
Welcome to the channel!
Safety squints are standard PPE at my work.
@kevinmcauley he said "safety squint!" And I physically cringed.
And those thingamabobs

Thanks for the call out to Body by Fisher! My dad worked there when the body for this car was built.
A feller is getting spoiled on these Friday VGG vids. Thank Ya. 🍺
Thank YOU for watching!
@@ViceGripGarage I love all your videos
You keep a guy laughing
??
@@ViceGripGarage sorry, wet phone in my pocket decided to make random comments!
Old Derek is so laid back and down to earth...started on the old tube and got so big he got motortrend...he's made it and yet he still pumps out the old CZcams for us....my favorite channel hands down....I don't know anyone that loves cars that doesn't know about a guy that does the thing....I've never met the man in person but he makes me (all of us) feel like we've been friends for years.....thanks buddy
I agree!!
Good channel. A lot of other rebuild channels got so big, they forgot where they came from
amen to that mate
Well said, hardest working family I know, his fans feel like they have known him forever
totally agree. Can't wait for the next "will it run again" 😀 and his "no-nonsense" solutions.
VGG was my motivation 5 years ago to tackle the revival of my pontiac grandville. When I got it it had not ran for 22 years. I used all of the methods that I saw watching VGG. I've learned a ton from watching and would have never attempted anything had it not been for VGG.
THANK YOU Derrick for the outstanding information and entertainment that you provide.
Motivating me to tackle my red thunderbird but still haven't done it. All it needs is a water pump.
Incredible, great work!
I could watch these “will it run and drive 600 miles” episodes every week if my life! Keep up the great work Derek, you are a national treasure
I found this channel on my son's watch list. I watched this and it brought back memories of my son and his love for anything with a motor. He passed 6 months ago :( I have his truck in my garage and its waiting to be reborn. 2006 Chevy he bought to rebuild. One day I hope to get the truck fixed up for him.
Maybe it’s because I’ve never tried to do it, but Derek’s ability to throw a car battery like a baseball is very impressive!
He's a big guy for sure. I worked in body structures at Boeing years ago and for whatever reason they put the biggest guys on the nose section which was small when not connected to the rest of the airplane?
hes a pretty good sized feller. although i am as well and i cant do it. Its all them years of practice hes had i guess.
I've tried it. Not easy at all.
He's s very stout feller. That is for sure .
maybe he uses an Olympic
disc throw technique, IDK.
I think it's more like a Shot Put than a Baseball
new favorite line "this thing might be more hopped up than a bunny farm."
Derek, you're truly a national treasure, please never change, this world needs yah.
Great video 👍👍👍🇬🇧
@1:01:31 "Eye of the Storm", ....lolololol
I agree, his unique communication style is one reason I watch the videos.
My first car was a white w/white vinyl top 1973 Pontiac Catalina! It had a 400 with a 2 bbl carb. Great car! Unfortunately I live in Michigan so she was pretty rusty when I got her in 1980. Great job on this revival and thanks for the memories!
“Your project won’t work if you don’t.” Now that’s an awesome message!
I think it being a wine mixer edition is actually accurate. Wine is probably what caused that front end, after all.
Haha
You have no idea how many people have joy in watching your channel. I had a 1970 Pontiac Catalina. 400 with no exhaust and sold it that way
Now wishing I had it stored somewhere. Thanks for the memories
My boyfriend and I love watching you bring all of those cars back to life. And... you crack us up, you are so darn funny 😅
Even with a bum hoof a guy is still out there showing us how it is done. I've got a lot of respect for ya feller, Thank you for the good times, and giving us the inspiration to get out in the shop.
Thanks for the kind words
@@ViceGripGarage I hope and pray your foot gets better Derek. I have foot issues also. I can sympathize. Be well.
There's a trick that some GM Mechanics taught me back in the 70's for changing the sparkilators on the A/C compressor side of GM vehicles. Jack that side of the car up via the frame until the tire is just barely touching the ground, then use a long extension (36 to 48" long) and a wobble socket to go over the top of the tire, above the upper control arm, thru the black rubber splash pad to get to the sparkilators. Works like a charm. My old boss at Goodyear couldn't figure out why I put an Impala on the lift todo a tune up until he saw me change the plugs that way. The old guy about pooped his pants when I changed the plugs in about 5 minutes on that side.
My wife's '73 Ventura Custom was almost the same, except it was the rear plug on passenger side, took the front wheel off and hole sawed a 3" hole in the rear of the steel wheel tub and reached in with an extension and a socket, made a rubber flap and screwed it to the hole. Years of having tune ups done and no one ever changed that plug and they charged her for 8 plugs. Then she married me and she got a real tune up.
Flat rate is the mother of all invention.
In my shop, on 455 Trans Ams, that was the only way to to the plugs
Thank you Derek and family for the entertainment! You’ve got my wife watching now too! Now we’re trying to save on an old Road Runner!
You're like the dad i lost 2 years ago, thank you for making me laugh no matter what situation im in❤ keep the will it runs coming!
I agree with 100%,,..My first car at 16 was a 1970 442 my dad got me to go to community college in IF I graduated high school. Next car was 1969 GTO,,.. then a 1978 GMC Caballaro, then a 1980 El Camino.
Needless to say these shows take me back to some great memories.
@@PopahoDang buddy yall had some good taste in cars lol. I wish I could have grown up around these types of cars. Not too many normal commuter cars these days have soul.
I love the way the fire extinguisher is leaning against the fuel jug. That way when it bursts into flames, the extinguisher will over heat and when the safety disk bursts, the contents will automatically discharge. Meanwhile, you can be running like Hell the other way. PERFECT!
That’s pretty neat
@@BrittanyAndThePhilbillys I'm pretty sure he knows what he's talking about. Sounds like it. He must be qualified. 👍
“More hopped up than a bunny farm” absolutely killed me! 🤣 Derek is such a gem!
Learning, laughing and completely enjoying the resurrection of the Catalina. Hence why your channel has over 1.5 million subscribers and this video has over 1.6 million views one month after it was posted. LOVE your channel Derek!
Always amazes me how Derek can take an automotive corpse and raise it from the dead. His "hope springs eternal" mindset has all of us rooting him on and make it home. The man definitely loves a challenge!
Thanks to VGG, Derek and his family for the endless hours of fun, family entertainment, not to mention how good of a mechanic he is... his humor is the absolute best!
Been around since original garage days man, learnt tons from you..your an inspiration to us all Derek thanks for all you do brother
LETS GOOO famous guy left a reply! Lol
Thanks for being loyal, appreciate ya
I had a 1971 Catalina for my High School car. I almost started to cry at @ 52:25. My Catalina had that rhythmic Humm. I could listen to that for hours. I can hear my late best friend next to me. Damn cancer. Life was grand in 1982. If I was Billionaire. I would get one and head back to Yesterday.
A little tip when trying to prime those fuel systems, try a hand brake bleeder from Harbor Freight. Works like a charm. I have used it many times.
What a gorgeous car. Thank you for bringing this rig back to life and taking us with you
Thanks for joining
She came back to life with each passing mile down the road. I think she likes you Derick. Thank you, your videos are always a pleasure to watch my friend.
A guy didn't get anything done today... I ended up watching the videos I've missed from working the last few weekends, thanks Derek 🤨 lol was good to watch again, missed quite a bit of the progress you've made with everything. Nice work on it all hopefully I can win that Regal that would be awesome!! I'm from Can- anada glad I have a chance. Keep up the awesome work 👍
I live down this way and there's endless great mountain roads to explore and drive. I've come to appreciate my mustang's handling!
Derek, you’re a natural inspiration. At one point I started to think I liked newer cars but man old classics just spark a fire inside me. I don’t have a garage or wrenches but one day I’ll revive at least one dying car, thanks to you, mate.
Simple tools are needed. A garage is a convenience. You can devote 15-30 minutes a day to your project & it’ll be running. In mean time learn what’s needed for proper revival. Watching TV at night is overrated.
I do not have one either, but i still maintain all of my vehicles in the seattle rain. Just buy you a cartent canopy with some sidewalls or use long tarps to cover it. Ridgid job site box for your tools.
@Captain Blacktooth That's a thing way too many people learn far too late. As the song says, "Someday never comes".
“If the radio of come on, I would have opened the door and bailed…” I laughed out loud and not for the first time in this video. While I love you getting these cars running and back on the road, I really enjoy your sense of humour that adds so much to your videos. Thanks for keeping us entertained, Derek.
Come to think of it, has there been a revival yet where the radio has worked?
@@Unholyhairhole it worked in the service truck last video! Think it was a fluke though
@@Unholyhairhole 🎉
This video sure stirred up some fond memories. A 72 Catalina was my grandfather's last car. It went to my father and was our family car for many years. One of the first cars I ever worked on and still a personal favorite. Between the three of us ours had over 400,000 miles on it before frame rot turned it onto a demolition derby car.
Having computer problems as my number one car issue in recent years, I long more and more for a car like this that could be fixed with a good ear and a few tappy tap taps.
ps: Sure sounds like a cam. If memory servers the stock 400 ran very smooth with no thump / lope.
Thanks for the memories.
You literally inspired me to start my own project here in Australia 😂, for YEARS ( a good 25? Maybe ) I've been driving past a farm that has a few cars parked in a row, few looked abit worse for wear, others where okish and some had just become a pile of rot, after watching one of you're revival videos I thought bugger it I'm going to pull in and see what that's all about one day, about a week later I saw the old fella out on his tractor so hit the skids and pulled in and waved him down, got to chattin with him ( decent old fella that liked to have abit of a chin wag ) and we shuffled over to the abandoned car lot, I had my "peepers" as you call it 😂 on 1 car, a 72' Holden HQ Statesman De Ville, I asked if he'd be interested in parting with it and he said sure chuck him an offer, I said $2000 and he came back and said "if you can get it gone today you can have it for $1000, so raced home, grabbed a mates tilt tray and some cash and went back, he was waiting there ( had slashed the grass around it for me ) and we got to talking again while loading up ( I hadn't even looked in the car yet just a quick look on the outside, very very minimal rust which had me interested) he said it used to belong to his son, his resin had blown up the original V8 that was in it ( think it was a 308, could or been a 350 ) and had put in a new motor an trans but then became sick and sadly passed away, chat for a good 40min more and got it home where ( under your instructions) checked out the boot first, and shit.... a set of heads.. aa fuel mixer... a charger whirly and a metric ton of wiring and gaskets 😑... thought to myself ok so what's the engine bay look like and what did he put in this HQ when he blew the original motor, popped the bonnet to find a brand spanking new 454ci crate motor that had never been run 😮 found paperwork in the glove box for it, and now I'm slowly restoring it while keeping the old fella up to date with what the progress is, so thankyou for bringing us these revival videos mate, your inspiration has led me down a path I would have never gone down and now glad I did 🤙💙🇦🇺
9:30 "That vent right there needs to come back in automobiles... You guys know what I'm talking about"
Amen to that!! :)
I live in the UK and have always loved old American Muscle cars, watching VGG just makes me love them even more especially because I doubt I'll ever actually own one. I'm so glad you go out of your way to keep such a unique era of cars alive and running.
Watching this video was like taking a trip down memory lane. Great job!
Thank you kindly
That car bears a resemblance to my parents' 1972 Pontiac Bonneville, 2 door, black on black with a 455 engine. Got about ten miles to the gallon and ran smoothly, like a tank. Enjoy that vintage cruiser !!
I love Derick so much been getting caught up on all the old videos.
Can’t express enough how much I love these revivals if not even for the content just the fact these cars are being brought back to a running condition and saved and sent on to the next to continue its life and pulled from their potential grave! Thank you Derek
As a big classic Pontiac fan, I love seeing this one on the road again! She's a sweet car that just needs a little love. Glad it's going to a new home!
Long time subscriber here, but I've been a way for awhile. I am not surprised that you are still cranking out superb content. Thanks for blowing my mind with your wrenching skills...yet again. More importantly, thanks for making me smile when I don't feel like it.
These motors have a character all of their own, and you know that Derek. Although I am envious that you have discovered such a wonderful motor to release into a new life of enjoyment that I will not unfortunately be a part of, I am at least thankful Derek that you have rescued this wonderful motor from becoming nothing other than parts/scrap. This is just the sort of base project that can return to become something more than it originally ever was, bringing so much joy and fun to a new owner. Thank you Derek for your passion and dedication. It is refreshing indeed to find someone who can see far beyond the surface look of each motor you find.
I absolutelymlove these revival/rescue episodes! The funniest part is that a guy has a ramp truck and could easily avoid all of the time constraints and risks of driving a janky old rig, but still does it old school just for us to enjoy.
I particularly liked this rescue. Cool old Catalina. Whomsoever got it is fortunate.
I started watching your channel about 3 weeks ago and I've watched a bunch of your old videos. I love watching you get these old cars up and running again. I remember many days tearing down old cars so my dad could build a roll cage and turn it into a street stock dirt track race car. Love that you allow your kids to get in there and get their hands dirty. If I had it my way I'd love to just tinker on old cars but of course as we all know bills don't stop 😋. Keep up the great videos, I'll be watching all your content. Oh yeah another thing is I love the Red Green Show and you remind me sooooooo much of that show. Your personality is one of the reasons I enjoy about your content.
Another great Video from VGG. Thanks Derrick for sharing this oldie but goodie Pontiac with us!
My day is always a little bit better every time VG posts a new video. Thanks, Derek and fam.
Thank you 🤝
I’ll be dipped, a will it run and drive episode. A guy is super excited. This definitely looks like a going to town rig.
What a treat to watch you bring this Catalina back to life, Derek! Then your expressing what it's like to enjoy our land via back roads & small towns really makes a guy enjoy your videos more than any other gearhead channel!
I’ve been watching your channel a lot but this one has to be one of my favorites, my grandad had a Pontiac Cadillac dealership when I was just out of diapers. My whole family had Pontiacs from the family station wagon to moms LeMans, big brothers GTO big sisters Catalina and my restored 64 Tempest convirtable! Thank you Derek for refreshing all those sweet memories! Please stay safe and always be awesome 😎
As a true blue Pontiac feller this is right up there as one of my favourite revivals. It's definitely great to see you save this beauty from years of neglect!
Watching your channel grow from thousands to millions of subscribers has been a once in a lifetime experience and if anyone deserves that success it’s you Derek. I have learned an invaluable amount from just watching your videos, and I always have a great time watching you make videos. Thank you for doing what you do best.
I was here from very start too! Watching him and his bro in that super sketchy car with outsized gear stick was epic!!
Seems like only a little while ago VGG was at 1/2 million. They got to 1.6 million pretty quickly. I think Derek pulls of the vicarious experience really well, he makes us feel like we can do it, even mistakes are just absorbed into the mix and he's funny.
Yeah I feel the same way. I had his video come up last night where he went and took pieces of videos from way before when he was working in a small garage like attached to his house.. it's truly crazy the amount he's grown. Like he's got his own TV show on motortrend, he's got one of the biggest CZcams channels in the car community. He's truly a genuine gentleman. Derek and his family are good people.
First (family car) I started with in 72’ was a 400v8 68 Catalina 2 door fast back. Took off the fender skirts and added a pair of Jensen Triax 2s to the rear deck. A cherry bomb muffler and a set of high jacker air shocks to give it a better profile. It Had a polyester front bench seat, so when things were getting off to slow start on a second date, I’d simply take a hard right turn and she’d slide right on over 😂. That thing had so much understeer you could also pick up a dime off the pavement during those hard right turns!
Beautiful ride, that quick wash made a big difference. Love how you bringing all rides back to life. I was giving a 84 Volkswagen Rabbit 2 door convertible by another Army Veteran. Don’t know anything about that car but I need to bring her back to life.
A guy can’t think of a better way to start off the weekend with a VGG video. Keep ‘em coming!
Congratulations on another successful rescue trip Derek, wonderful to see that old girl coming back to life. Really didn't believe how sweet it would look after just a little soap and water. Lucky owner.
I know those Catalina’s inside out…The fun I had with mine was priceless. 1980’s era I believe. Mine was a 75 or 76…. 4 door…Police Detectives Car.. Unmarked. very Clean…Floorboards we’re not so good.N.J Road salting…..
Gun in the boot ? 😂😂
The interior of that thing is in great shape for what it is and where it’s been. I’m quite impressed! Great find!
I'm always amazed at what a set of wheels and tires will do for pretty much any rig. Great video. Someone obviously loved this rig alot at one time. Thanks for sharing. Take care.
you're absolutely correct!
Your sense of humor and down to earth personality make for a great show. Thanks for rescuing those old muscle cars!
The Pontiac Catalina Wine Mixer....Derek must be a fan of the movie "Stepbrothers". LOL
Your videos are absolute inspirational. It's been a dream of mine to be able to restore vehicles and flip them, seeing your videos give me the motivation to keep that dream alive! Given my situations in life that keep me from making that dream turn into reality, Your videos are very wholesome to be able to watch. You are doing more of an amazing job keeping these vehicles alive, being able to give younger folks an opportunity to work on the prime years of vehicles. You definitely have the best youtube channel out there where a feller gets to enjoy restoration cars. Keep up the amazing work, wish you and your family the best!!
Really enjoying the "FORGOTTEN" series videos. Looking forward to your next barn find or buried restoration project!
Nothing better on a Saturday morning than an hour long VVG video ❤
This video made my Friday. Always love watching revivals. It's what got me into your channel and I love everything you do. The revivals just tickle me a certain way
Appreciate ya
Love those

Neat car, I had a close friend while growing up......his first car was this very same year in Winter Green...his he got it in near mint condition...kept it for a few years and sent it down the road.
Holy shit, finally a catalina!!! My first car back in highschool was a 79 catalina and i miss is dearly. I been looking for another one for about 20 years that i can afford or trade for. Alot of good stories in that car and alot of fun. I literally dropped everything i was doing when i saw this. Thank you so much for posting a vid with a catalina. Derick, you really are my favorite youtuber. I didnt expect this today. Thanks for bringing back allthe good memories i had with my car. One day i will have another one and never get rid of it this time.
This is classic VGG... This is what made the channel what it is...❤
100%! @1:01:31 "Eye of the Storm", ....lolololol
@@kidwave1 Yeah that was hilarious.... Derek is a funny fella
I really enjoy watching you raise these old beauty's from the dead. It reminds me of troubleshooting in my Automotive School in 1963. With Spark, Fuel, Air, you were good to go back then, no Computers!!!
Great looking car there! Haven't seen one at all. Looked great when cleaned up. The roof even looked good in that rusty copper colour. Would look great in a gloss copper.
Thanks for posting.
I was SO happy that you did a couple more episodes of going back to your roots with “Will It Run” that I’m re-watching a bunch of old ones and leaving likes on any that I forgot to before. I totally get why you like the racing episodes, but this is really what it’s all about for me. AND it’s a PONTIAC!!! YES!!!
This is the format that put you on the backroad to success. Keep these up.
Always a great time with your videos Derek Thank you for taking us along 👍
I will never understand why someone would leave a car like this to just waste away. Thanks for the work you do on these, Derek.
Love these revivals. Makes you realize how much more character the old body styles had. Thanks for taking the time out of your busy life to bring us such great content every week.
I haven't seen one of these in decades, my grandpa was a full blow Pontiac man and i remember he had a green one just like that. Takes me back to being a little feller and going fishing and riding around with him in it. He used to let me steer when we got on the back roads. Thanks for this one Derek.. ❤
My first car was a 2-door 1976 Pontiac Catalina. It had a 400 in it too. That thin ran so stinking quiet, more than once, I went out in the early morning cold, to warm it up before I went to work, and, went back in for some coffee, and, would come back out, and, standing right beside it, I couldn’t hear it running, but, it certainly was.
Brother I’ve been sitting here for over a week not feeling good watching your contacts and I finally got off my ass and went out and worked on my Camaro and my truck I love what you do what you say and how you do it God bless you and your family
Just makes my Friday night. Having a cold snack and watching Derek bring a car back to life. Realize how much work and time goes into making these episodes and can't thank you enough.
Loved this. I can never get enough of the Poncho rescues. These 70’s Pontiacs are overlooked but are true gems. I love my massive 77 GP. It’s a sporty boat. Nice save!
Thanks for keeping it clean. Its nice that i can watch your show around my kids. Love it.
Love and appericate the pontiac rescues. Keep the excitement going. I have had a few cars and trucks i bought with fuel issus. Sometimes all it took was an air blower through the lines to clean it out
Derek, your sense of humor has me in stiches every time! just love your recovery episodes, just keep watching them over and over and always find something new!! As an Australian fellow enthusiast, I find your channel just one of the best mate, truly awesome! Heck, I accidently found myself calling an alternator a chargerwhiller the other day!!! got a strange look from one of my friends!
73 Catalina- this was my first car when I turned 16! Wish I kept it, it was so strong and such a great runner. What a trip down memory lane and thanks so much for rescuing this baby Derek!
Me too. Brought back memories.
Mine was a 67 with the 400 4barrel it even had the primered front clip. Great car
What an absolute GEM!!! She wanted to live, what a wonderful car you’ve got there. I couldn’t believe even the headliner was still intact! I would love to see more of this car on the channel! I’d love to see this car sprayed that GORGEOUS red, with a white roof (vinyl or just paint) with a black hood and a nice scoop maybe. *Edit* ahhhh man you sold it! Haha nice car
This is the first time I ever intentionally watched a CZcams commercial! Loved Derek as a O’Reilly’s auto parts, spokesman.
Hey Derek, I just want to acknowledge the transition at 38:20. Stepping out of shot and then appearing from behind the car. ✋🏼😌👌🏼
Love it!
I love watching you get these old cars going! Good job Derek 👍🏿
Thanks
Don't we all
Man love this channel been watching for a few years and will forever be greatful a guy stumbled upon it
Thanks for showing the old boat known as the Pontiac Catalina. I bought one for $700 back in 94 from a mechanic in Plymouth when I lived in Michigan. It had a bit of rust, and the back bumper dropped off when driving snowy back roads. I got a fix it ticket and replaced it with some nailed together 2x6's
My grandpa had a Catalina, brings back a lot of memories riding around with him
Another pile of crap
@@billybob042665 Some of the best 'ol rigs. What I would give for a ride in some of them' ol rigs these days. My gramps always had the 'ol Chevy trucks. I guess why I've always stuck with the old squares.
So did one of my grandpa's. His was a '63 to '65 (don't remember). It was a copper color & was a smooth ride 🙂.
I had a '68 cat with the 400 Rocket engine. Was azure aqua in color with the white vinyl top. I sure miss that land yacht.
This is such great entertainment - I forget all my troubles when watching Derek at work. Informative too. In this episode, there are lots of laugh out loud moments, BUT I must mention the one at 1:01:34 to 1:01:54 - 'Eye of the Storm.' Absolute gold!
i had a '73 Bonneville. i learned a lot about engines from that car. I couldn't afford good tires so i bought mostly worn out retreads. they would only last maybe 100 miles and generally blowout, which taught me a lot about handling. it was all ok because i carried 3 full sized spares in the trunk and had lots of room left over for tools, oil, jacks, jack stands, clothes, etc.
So glad to see a revival again. They've been on hold for a while with all the lastest projects a fella is doing
Awesome car brother keeping the old school Pontiac running is a great thing not to many around anymore
Probably cost more than it's worth, but the steel on this one looks a lot better than most that old. Would like to see this one fixed up.
My buddy in high-school had a green '70 Catalina. It was a great car, back when you could get stuff for cheap and it lasted. You could roll around with 6 people comfortably.
i enjoy watching you videos glad you could be able to work on old cars and bring them back to alive thanks for keeping the will it run alive on your channel keep it up
Love the fact this Pontiac has the same slots on the bumper as a Kingswood did in Australia not surprising that this was a GM, essentially a high lift jack The fuel filler behind the number plate. I had an HZ, straight six “red” with a 4.2 litre 161hp engine. Loved that car, it saw many vice grips used…. Forgot to mention it was a glorious shade of lime green, well it was this or a a bright orange falcon.
