ratdude747 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Lately I've been watching a lot of vice grip garage. But more for the "parked for ___ years, will it run and get me 600 miles home?" videos. Funny thing is I actually know of a truck that would fit that... but I'm not sure I have the guts to try that (675 miles, sat for 10-11 years, 1979 F350 with a 460). Perhaps it's a negative influence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it's a negative influence? That is way beyond anything I'd try with my current amount of skill. I need to get into more of those types of videos. I've enjoyed some of the videos from Jennings Motor Sports, namely this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcarlisle Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 On YT, I watch VGG; Junkyard Digs (they like Ford trucks); Junkyard Mook - Digs' girlfriend but she can be especially annoying at times; Thunderhead 289 (ford guy mostly - helps Junkyard Digs a lot in older episodes); Uncle Tony's Garage (mostly Mopar, but some good information in there - he is a pretty smart dude with some history in automotive journalism); Daniel McGee (owns Bullnoses); Minute Masters (aeronose truck projects); BullnoseGarage (nothing new, but mostly bullnose content); and Dylan McCool. I like Dale Jrs Youtube videos of his podcasts, but for some reason, I can't listen to podcasts without losing interest or losing the point. I need to read information or have moving pictures. Haven't run across a bullnose Bronco channel yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't run across a bullnose Bronco channel yet. For general knowledge and honest character i like south main auto. Not a ford guy but he teaches working tips and good diagnostic methods.

Scotty Kilmer Thunderhead289 Auto Auction Refill Luke on Thrunderhead289 can take a LONG time to get to any kind of a point. But he has some smarts on occasion. Smarter than me. Stuff I watch is mostly for the entertainment value and not for educational purposes. Mike's Carbs is good for learning about the carbs. Scotty Klimer can annoy the stink off *well you know*.

Rembrant Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 I have a lot of time at work for listening to music or podcasts, and I figured instead of listening to the same kind of stuff over and over again, I could get some useful knowledge for restoring my Bronco. Do any of you guys have some recommendations of an auto repair or restoration youtube channel or podcast that I can listen to without having to be totally engaged? I'm starting with the Wrench Nation podcast but it seems to be very scattered in terms topics. I'm a big Podcast guy, in fact it's about all I have listened to for the last 5-6 years. I very rarely listen to the radio anymore. Anyway, the bad news is that I haven't found much in the way of car/truck stuff to listen to. Steve Mags Muscle Car Show is good to have on in the background, if you enjoy his stuff (ever watch Junkyard Gold?). he's a facts and numbers guy, so it can be pretty interesting. Sound was not great earlier on, but he was doing them at home with basic stuff I think. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-steve-mags-muscle-car-show/id1534908488 I listen to Binder Boneyard once in a while too. It's all about old International pickups, Scouts, Travelalls, etc. However, he does general tech stuff too. Not bad sometimes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-binder-boneyard-podcast/id1428273163 There are others, but I haven't really found many that I could stick with. I listen to a lot of regular podcasts, but not much automotive stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of my faves here. I can watch these over anytime. https://forum.garysgaragemahal.com/Budget-Buildz-Starting-a-Bullnose-that-has-been-parked-for-29-years-tp86288.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
