Guy’s in a scramble now to get this car ready to receive the 530+HP (soon to be 700HP) big block and TH400 trans. It’s best now to get the fuel system completed. So in this episode, we’ll throw in a fuel cell, fuel pump, fuel lines, and even get the battery box ready.

A guy drives 600 miles back home without breaks on a regular basis, and suddenly he's thinking about battery's safe location? Well I'll be dipped.
Would it not be SAFER ON TOP OF AXLE HUMP? 🤠🇺🇸 8:51
Yeah I would try to fix the paint at least the look like it's been painted but has weather and needs the red white and blue on it to be called Independence
Thanks!
Did you buy the Taylor gas tank and other taylor products from Scott Taylor from Nola Street Outlaws @ Scott Taylor Motorsports? Jw?
Why don't you just run the fuel line through the cab?
The gas tank is worth more than the car lol
I agree, you've done so much nice stuff. I'd redo the paint just a scoche..pez
Everything smokes if you abuse it enough.
Derek with ppe on ill be dipped haha
Paint the rest
More blue and stars on the fender!! Blend that sucker in!!
Add red kid!
add to the paint. make her look like a patriot again!
Yes do it
I'd love to have a twin to Independence Chevelle with all new shiny paint. I know….scary.
OH, and IMO step bits work way better than conventional twisty drill bits for drilling into plastic, thin metal, sheet metal, wheat thins, etc. They won't grab and pull your face and hands into the trunk hole.
If it were mine, I'd swap that red and blue harnesses for contrast. Red Harness for the Blue Passenger Seat, Blue Harness, for the,,,green, side, on the other side of the….I forgot what I was talking about….darn it….
I watched your show on TV. I am a huge fan. I have one question can give direction on how you made your portable electric pump/gas can. I have a couple of my old cars. I need to make one so I can temporarily run the cars. Thanks
Clear on it
Excellent!
👍👍👍
those AN fittings look just like regular JIC hydraulic fittings. Back in the days on forestry machines you had those screw-on fittings and made your hydraulic hoses that way sometimes. the pressure was a bit lower back then
Awesome Channel…..Thank you Derek, I have learned so much from you.
Everybody needs a little "waller" room 😆
🖒🤠
I see your funny haircut.
I know I'm late to the party but try and remove the black paint on the wing and reveal the blue – it could be Schwinn bicycle paint, if that helps retrace the colour. Very popular choice on guitars including Eddie van Halen's Frankenstrat.
Why not treat the frame when you have a lift and your already a@# deep in alligators??
One of my new favorite channel's.. Big fan from Australia. I've watched all the independence videos from the beginning and I'm up to here. What a epic build I love it. 💪 Watched all of Betty White's videos aswell she's a reliable old girl.. thought I'd leave a bleep bloop for a feller. Hell yeh brother. 😉
Air Brush Man Cow on it
A Cow with a Human Head
The United States looks like a big Cow 🐄 Moooo
If you do a loop in the fuel tank vent line won't that make it so that air can't travel through it? If the line gets fuel in it that would turn it into a trap like in the plumbing or HVAC world, which lets fluid pass but not air.
Cold Snacks as lube….. I Don’t Know
7:28 are lunchable real thing in the usa ? here in the uk they are… processed af but will fill a fella up and pretty tasty but would only recommend for treating your doggos
As always I am still playing the I don't know drinking game. Every time he says the phrase I don't know I cracked a beer. Needless to say every time I watch one of his videos I get a pretty good Buzz. LOL keep rocking the great videos.
Sharper than a toddler's toenails? Where is that coming from? 😂
Definitely make it more pronounced.
Hey Derek – I know this is probably too late…but if you need a quick way to work with fittings without marring them up, use a latex/nitrile glove between the fitting and wrench. No joke, slit a spare disposable glove from wrist to finger, and put it across the fitting. Put your wrench on the fitting (the glove takes up the slack) and then tighten it up. I just redid the carb & filters on my big block truck without any special tools, and the only fitting I goofed up was the one I over-tightened and may have rounded a corner off! (It was a cheap thing I bought online because I needed it fast, but the hydraulic hose place was closed at 11pm on a Saturday night). No need for fancy expensive wrenches!
I make battery switches. Could I send you one for free?
my flag is red/white/blue/thanks
the poor car needs paint all over thanks
Fake bullet holes in well placed areas on the body. Cause that's what happened in 1776. I don't know, maybe independence happened that way.
Old Peg was right! You’re one minty f*^king dude! Awesome content dude, thanks for the advice and entertainment.
Glad to see you took your time to make space for the Waylon tapes, 148.7% professional 👌
Could you not turn the fuel cell 90deg to give yourself more clearance between it and the battery department
I would do some color just to freshen it up a bit.
More colors. Just a bit! It should definitely look more stars and bars.
Definitely try to get some red on it the tan looks bad in my opinion 🤷🏼♂️
