We found an old Caprice wagon and diagnosed some problems to get it back on the road. After getting it running, we head to the hills of Kentucky for the Pineville Hill Climb, a grassroots racing event that adds some local flair.

thanks for making it look easy Jimmy @ 6:12
What about engine oil & spark plugs & gearbox oil ? you haven't even checked if there is cooling liquid in radiator !! I didn't like your carelessness !!!👎👎👎
I'd watch you guys build this car but make it a low buck everyday driver/cruise-in/Cars and Coffee car. Clean up the interior, "paintjob rebuild" the engine, throw a cheap paint job on it with some Vinyl Pinstripes/80's style decals, Paint the original steel wheels either Black or Body color, throw a set of decent Baby Moons on it and show people that you can have a cool classic car for not much money that you can still have some fun with the family with on the weekend and get the kids interested in cars.
I use the local parts stores. Sorry, old school like the GM car in this Rock Auto ad. I don't like taking parts back to the local auto stores, much less repacking and taking a Rock Auto part back to the FedEx or UPS stores to send back.
nice that they gave the Formula 600 a bit of screen time at the hill climb
Basically an entire video of Rock Auto advertising 😂
Live 20 minutes away and never know when this is coming to town. There isn’t enough advertisement or the locals would make this the biggest event of the year
21 seconds in, and I see myself in my little BMW 2002! It was so awesome meeting you guys at the hillclimb, and hanging out having a great time! You need to come to Norton, VA in a couple weeks, and bring a car with you to race this time! 😉😁 Thank you so much for attending, and providing coverage of our little grassroots family of hillclimbers, not only the drivers, & their crew, but all of the amazing volunteers that make events like this possible! We're all looking for you to come back and have fun with us again! Olivia even said she'd make more mini beers for us! 😜 lol
Overland station wagon build
I can't believe your using the patented Fire bomb Fuel filters. Does not take much to shatter that glass or for them to leak.
Don’t bother wasting 20 minutes of your life, the entire video is a rock auto infomercial 🤦
With that air filter and fuel filter combo, someone doesn’t want it to live very long
One not so disguised commercial.
I don't buy anything from Rock Auto because the shipping sucks.
shows are just product ads nothing like years ago
I thought xor was so much better with Ian
Why say they didnt make many????? They made zillions of these wagons!! 🤷♂️
Rock auto is lies. They say all the parts your car will ever need. Well my truck needs door panels, door panels are a part yet they don’t carry them.
Hubcaps?
Big block and manual swap it!
The video starts at 5:10
Don't use this fuel filters, they are not safe. Also you should never put it in the engine room.
My mom had one of these back when I was in middle school but herd was a 1988
Nothing smells better then cracking open a diff cover with old fluid!
I gotta say rockauto is my go to unless I need it now. Did a full brake and suspension bushing job plus some egr/ignition work on my Mercury Sable a while back. My car is a weird mix between the premium and base models and they had it down on what I needed exactly. 2 years or so later I have no complaints other than my own choice on brake pads. I went with ceramics because I live in the mountains and I wanted something more heat resistant for long, heavy and frequent braking applications. But man they're dusty lol. I clean my front wheels more often than the rest of my car 😂
The truckster is ready for another Griswald family vacation.
Dream car.
Grew up with an Oldsmobile wagon, but same thing.
Not gonna lie. I'd love to have an old wagon like that and LS swap it.
Rock Auto are a great supplier…….we love them here in the UK…get parts quicker from the US cheaper and faster than in the UK….love the fridge magnets too!!
Damn, started to watch what I thought was gonna be a good video but it got interrupted by 5 minute long rock auto commercial.
The problem with rock auto is the customer service. I had a part lost getting to me, and it took over a month to fix the issue. It was a 2014 explorer pre pandemic
I assume this is the next project I hope u put a coyote in it
Oldsmobuicklet That old differential oil looked in good shape. no gray metallic color and it was still somewhat clear!.
I put those absorbent mats under my drunk gf for when she pees the bed 😂😂
Why does everything from Rock Auto ship from different warehouses ??
U end up paying 4x the shipping costs for nickel and dime items 👎🏼👎🏼
