The video got hit with a red flag for a song I used towards the end. I had to mute it so apologies for the quiet driving segment. 😅

Talk about super gutsy driving an unknown car 350 miles back to home. But, the huge never ending smile of Olivia made it worth it. Can't wait to see the resurrection of this car.

You will get the rusted out sheet metal cut out and replaced with new sheet metal and welded in, and it will be fantastic. What a great car. Congrats.

OH THAT IS A OUTSTANDING SURVIVOR!! CONGRATS ON THE NEW CAR!!

I've had 10 hot rods in the last 45 years, and every one of them was a garage Queen. That fear of bugs, birds and rocks always sucked the fun out of driving them. A hard lesson learned, but if it were me, I would leave the esthetics the way they are on this car, and just make it safe. Then you can drive it without worrying about dents, dings etc. etc.!!!! I wish I had done that with one of my cars!!!

Props to Liv for always getting her hands dirty and getting into working on these old cars.

Congratulations Olivia! It has its issues, but at least it runs, and it made it 350 miles back home! That's better than a lot of cars. Great job, both of you! Love it!

I appreciate the clean talking without use of foul language. That’s why I watch VVG. I’ll continue watching your channel. Just subscribed.

The 56 is the best looking of all the tri fives. My absolute favorite.

Great find! Sweet old 56. Nothing like driving a old tri5 Chevy. Don't get any better. Good luck with it👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks for including us in this your adventure ❤🎉😊

Don't you just love road tripping for a car? What an adventure. The wife and I just went 550 miles to pick up a 79 Blazer. Coming back through Montana it was -30 Windchill. Truck ran like a dream except the windshield washer pump quit and the Speedometer Adapter on the T Case broke and the cruise control quit. Good luck with your car!

Olivia and Danny, thanks for sharing your life.Your keeping it real.

Definitely worth the trip. The 56 doesn’t get the love like the 55 and 57 but it should and a post car. Wow I really liked this video and I LOVE the car thank you.

I was born in 56 so if you could pop it in a cardboard box and post it over the the UK that would be fine 🙂Great help from the guy you got it from with the exhaust, interesting trip, looking forward to checking in on how the work gos on it. Great looking find with most of the mechanicals sorted, maybe. Good luck with it.

AWESOME JOB OF SAVING THAT OL GAL... SHE JUST WANTED TO BE LOVED, CLEARLY BY THE FACT SHE MADE IT ALL THE WAY HOME FOR YOU, AND IS A TESTAMENT TO HER HAPPINESS..... SHE IS SO KOOOL, ALL THE CHARACTER AND A PROJECT THAT WILL BE FUN AND WORTH IT . CONGRATS AND WELL DONE. WAY TO GO DANNY, THAT WAS A BUMMER THE EXHAUST FUMES. GET WELL... PEACE YOU ALL. 👍👍🙏🙏🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁

What an awesome 👌 adventure!! 😊😊😊

Marketplace has some of the best things to pick up, I purchased a 70 Cuda Sight unseen and it was the best purchase I’ve ever done. Good purchase for you.👍🏼

That front seat is about $1000 you are lucky to get it especially since that was a old race car. People used to send them to the landfill and put buckets in. Now they are hard to find and everyone wants them.

Awesome car! so happy for you Olivia i know how much you wanted one!

I'm so happy for the two of you. I just bought my 93 year old neighbors 72 chevy chevelle. Its been in her family since ordering it from the factory. Her son beefed it up by doing an engine swap from a 400 to a 396. Not without dropping a 3/4 cam. Its almost all original inside and out. Sounds like a beast. Took me a couple of weeks to get it running again, but well worth it. Happy restoring to you both.👍

Finally got to see the whole video. Quite nice to see Olivia so happy with her new drive. Totally loved your video will watch mooore. Thanks guys for being real and true (as opposed to many other YTbers). Bless you, a new fan.

First time watcher, if that is the correct term. I was born in 59 But as a teenager I built model cars, and 57 was my favorite so telling my dad for first car instead of getting a newer 77 model I wanted a 57, we were not rich and I wanted to work on it more than just working all the time to pay for it I loved that car drove threw high school then had to get a truck

1956 is by far my favorite! Great job and love watching your videos!

56 year I was born love them

Holy Crap, just saw this and had to say this. In 1976 I bought my wife a 1 owner 1956 Belaire 4 door sedan with only 49K on the ODO. This was from a used car lot in Lompoc Cal. This buggy was deluxe and had belonged to the first owner who was gifted the car by his parents when he graduated. Drove it from Santa Barbara to Detroit in a 48-hour stretch. You could see the gas gauge needle drop with every mile. Sold the car for 750 bucks which is what we bought it for in order to pay tuition.

Hey you guys rock you scored I have owned my 56 since the 70,s hope to see more.Thanks

Welcome to the TriFive club!

At first, I thought you bought Danny's 56. I have to agree on the Tri-Five post cars are so much cooler than hardtops. Congrats.

Congratulations Liv. Look forward to the progress you guys make on it. Feel better Danny! Thanks for bringing us along. 🍻

Love your new ride Olivia, great choice!...Of course Charger is first but you'll both have fun spare-timing-it-together into a beauty and a beast, just the way you want it...Shout out to Danny on this for all the creative wrenching, tweaks, and quirks he had to do to make it almost 400-hundred-mile-drive-worthy...Give Danny a screw a nail and a piece of wood and he'll build you a shopping mall...A Tiki toast to both of you!!!

You really should have kept the "V" off of the trunk lid. Those are not just a decoration. Those indicate that this was originally a V8 car and usually have one on the hood as well. With out those, they look like a cheep 6 cylinder car.

I think you've got to thank your lucky stars that you made it 350 miles w/o any major problems, i had my doubts just looking at it , but it's a cool car & you'll probably have alot of fun driving it around town.

Love that part when your testing the trunk lid. If it locks then "We Are Boned"!! I'll definitely have to use that one.

Awesome! Luv the patina’ you saved it.. ❤️

Congratulations on the 56! I was also impressed by how the trunk lid matched.

Sweet 56 Chevy good job

That's the great thing about 55,56, & 57 Chevies,parts are easier to get than most other cars!!!

I have a white rust free 56 truck lid just a little damage around the lock. Free to you just pick it up 👍🍻

I've owned several 56 2-dr post Chevy's . Awesome 56 .

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder for sure on this one guys . But with a little love and some metal work along with some new wiring and updated equipment it will be a blast . Glad your satisfied with your purchase be careful and stay safe my friends God love ya both.

That’s still my favorite car of all times. And you can buy every part brand new

Chevy Belair's are my favorite classic cars! Congratulations on your recent purchase, and good luck with it!

I don’t have a 55 Chevy yet, but that hood would of been nice wall art,,,right, thanks BigAl California.❤

Stumbled onto this video, had never seen any of your videos. Very good video, no drama or made up stuff. Will subscribe. Thanks!

56 is the best year in my opinion, I got mine 12 years ago with a tree growing inside it.

We bought a new one in 1956, same color as yours, our family really liked the car, would like to have one now.

Of a handful of cars I had that I wish I had back is a 210 '56 post. You have good taste. A Bel Air , too. Fancy. ; )

Congrats young lady! Good Job Driving the car Danny!

So great that you both are car peeps, nothing bonds a couple better than a tri-five! Very impressive "on the fly" trouble shooting.

Always use full strength antifreeze 80% to distilled bottled drinking water 20% instead of using 50/50 blend only in the reservoir 🤔👍👍👍

If you have to temporarily use rubber hose on a transmission , use EFI hose clamps. Smooth inside and don’t bite into the hose.

I'm 73. My Aunt had a 56 Belair almost identical to that one. I loved the car but never thought to speak for it. One day when I was about 16 or 17 I went to see her and it was gone. I was heartbroken. I'm glad you found that one and glad you shared it. Thanks for the memories! I'm in North Carolina so I'm reasonably certain it's not the same car.

Very cool! Liv reminds me of my 25 year old daughter, she works on all her cars….she saved her money and has a 1962 Buick Skylark convertible, 1970 Skylark hard top and a 1970 Pontiac Grand Prix.

👿🔱😈..cool old ride and she fired right up.. Thats KARMA GIRL 🤘... Lov the green windows and old gassers are my favorite old hotrods.. Best of luck getting her going...and we dont need no stinkin mufflers

I love the 55/56 so much more than the 57s.

I really enjoyed your adventure with the 1956 Chevrolet Belair. I owned a 1965 Chevy II NOVA 327cid back in the 1980’s. Good memories.

Great video! I enjoyed every minute of it. It's the adventure that makes all of the work worth it I'm sure. Danny has a lot of guts driving that really cool '56. I like when he said he bonded with it. Whatever you do with it, you can't lose!

What an amazing car! Love it. You should call it "Time Bandit" Or 'RUSTY'

That’s a dd speed shop special

Congrats on your tri five find!! Definitely a bucket list car for me too. Can't wait to see you make it gnarly 🍻🤙

One easy test is pull it inside and shut the door start it up and look at the wires with the coils exposed so you can see if any sparks are flying from the coil wires or coil to the engine. Usually if it's not obvious when you step on it that's when you will see a short//Sparks will ark. With no lights on in the pure darkness. Rodger wellco trust me if anything is arking you will see it. Those cheap wires can spark right through the outside housing it's like the 4th of July under the hood.

That car is sick! The color and patina are super cool.

Congrats on your new '56. Not a bad road trip home. BTW, reason you want to use a nut driver is it never slips off and won't strip out the slot. Boomer here.

Olivia and Danny, thanks for sharing your life)))

Love these kind of videos. Great job guys ! 🤟🏻

That deal on the trunk of the car is the base from an old Shakespeare, CB antenna, 70s or 80s

SaWeet ! You two kids be livin car life 😎exhaust poisoning 😮glad your alright Danny☮️

Dreams do come true! So happy for you guys!

I’m happy for you liv! You will have a lot of fun making that your own! Can’t wait to see what you do with it!

Next to my '69 AMX, a '56 Chevy is another dream car of mine - only because I was born in '56!

One of the cool parts about a 56 is the left taillight opens for the gas cap. Buckets YUCK!!! Use a bench seat! Tuck n roll interior would be nice.

When they opened the trunk, it brought back to my mind that MANY cars back then had that recess there that contained a FULL-SIZE SPARE! 😂

Love the paper plates on the radiator. Put new shocks on the '56. Can't wait to see you guys fix the trunk floor.

Cool... Just stumbled here. Really liked your adventure. Looking forward to the build. 👍

Would have been nice to save that emblem on the trunk lid, but.....the mounting studs might have all broken off....good call. 👍

Thank you for the video on the purchase of the 1956 Chevy. I just placed an order. Last week! Stay safe. Thanks for Sharing! 💯👍👊

That start up was rowdy. Always glad to see people saving some old iron!

Thanks for a great video. Great adventure. Hope to see it restored.

She is just so excited you can get see it her face , That's really good for a buyer , good find , beautiful

I love this addition to the fleet 1 was born in 55 and this my favorite tri 5 BelAir still is one of my many dream cars!!

That '56 is rad af! Good luck with it!

I'm 70 and 56 has always been my favorite!

Enjoyed the video I look forward to updates on the progress of the 56 Chevy, I love ALL of the oldies vehicles any make & model, my dad had a junk yard & used car lot when I was a young teenager I actually still live in the house I grew up in, 71 years & counting,sadly the junk yard has been long gone, the Northern Neck of Va.!!!

Things like going to get and bring back this 1956 jewel are what makes life worth living. Especially when you are still young enough to travel, work and enjoy life without being fussy like an old dog who does not want to learn new tricks.Everyday should be an adventure.

That is a rare beauty well worth the time and effort. The Chevy is nice too.

There is a guy in my home town . He drives a Dodge Neon with two tone {same color} and moon hub caps . It is an everyday driver . He will show up at cruise ins . He calls it the TOAD RUNNER !!!

I'm looking forward seeing all the upgrades you guys put into this 56 Chevy

Once you get the trunk pans and other things squared away you will have a great car that you know what you have and do what you want with it. The best part is that you have gotten one with the post! 😄 I'm going to say that if I was going to get one it would be the same thing, I think it's great that you have gotten what you want and something that everyone else doesn't have. Bravo and I am happy 😊 that you all have gotten what you wanted and not settling for something else that you didn't want. I hope that you two have a great evening and enjoy your Friday and upcoming weekend! I will now enjoy your video as always and watch what you have planned to get started with as you figure out the way you are going to get it to be exactly as you wish it to be. A dream car is like a Lego set 📐 with a erector set that you are going to be able to get every detail as you wish it to be in the end and final stage.

Great job with the video, thanks for sharing with us

Great clip. Thanks for sharing.👍🏻

Ha Ha!! any one remember the " Moon Racing " stickers from back in the day? Look at the radiator of the car. It my help you remember. Regards from Ody Slim

Awesome car! You will make that sweet I am sure! What great taste in cars you guys have. I had two 1957 post 210"s. One was Dusk Pearl/India Ivory and one was Sea Green/India Ivory. Love the dash on those cars.

Fun Clip Congrats on your new ride!

Being a truck driver I always used cardboard with bungee cords to hold the cardboard in place . Nice rescue of an oldie ....

What a great adventure. It's actually souch fun fixing a basket case/ unfinished project. Buying of new parts, fitting, tweaking. Good luck with it from us in New Zealand

That puts a smile on my face!

Thanks for sharing

Very cool 2 dr post. Cant wait to see it done.

Beautiful post car.... nice find !!
