Good times my dude!! Let's do it again soon!

That wasn't just any lightning. That was the call of the 289 and thunderhead replying.

This guy has a magical garage every time you need a part he like "Oh I have on of those over here"

“Actually got invited since it was our own event” 😂😂

"Ike I think for once in our lives we can say we added a hundred horsepower, with a hammer" _[Jeremy Clarkson liked that]_

Listening to that old Mustang firing up and idling, brought back some good memories when I had mine. 😁👍

This is amazing, the friendship, the revival it can't get much better than that. You make me want to go down to the local junk yard just to poke around y'all rock

47:10 !!! As you high fived, lightning flashed! Can't get any better than that!! A sign of a job well done !!!

Man Ike has a serious stash it’s nice out buildings too definitely jealous LOL

With that belt squeal it sounded like it was supercharged

For the viewers of this channel- The block casting number is on the lower side of the block by the starter. It will usually be C5OE-6015A if a 1965, C6OE for a 1966, etc. You will need to pull the starter to see the number. The date code for the casting is there too.

Man, for a motor that may need to be rebuilt, than thing sounded like a beast! These old motors just want to run. Gotta love computer-less cars.....they’ll outlive us all. 💪🏻

Kevin you need a sponsor, some more money, and two of your best buddies and start "Junkyard Digs: U.S Starter'Up tour" where you just travel around each state doing a revival (whether you keep it or not is up to you) thus earning your own achievement no other KZfaqr has accomplished. Get fame and money to buy Mook parts for her truck

I'm so thrilled to see all of my favorite KZfaqrs collaborate this way! I have been watching many of the channels in the "junkyard dig extended family" circle. Also added new ones upon your mentions. Couldn't be happier. You guys are all stand up people with amazing content!!

Is the audio messed up for anyone else?

It is so epic when a couple of my favorite KZfaqrs get together... and Junkyard Digs and Cars & Cameras go together "like peas and carrots"! Awesome job of bringing that sweet Mustang back to life... my Dad had a '65 Mustang that I learned to drive in, although it was the 200CI 6 with the 3 speed manual on the floor ("3 by the knee") in "Rangoon Red". Thanks for posting this great collaboration!

Junkyard D is such a chill dude with light years worth of technical knowledge 🤯 Many thanks for being humble and all the explanations while in process! 🙏🏼

Yes, Mr. Sir!!! I love the way that Mustang has revived and came back to the World because it looks very good to be led junked into the future and not take care of it. It is just time to start loving it again and give her some wonderful road to pursuit. Good for you guys! You are very good at that kind of work and hobby! One of the best things to do in our lives. Congratulations Guys !!!

I absolutely loved this! My dad "Skip" "RIP" and his best friend "John" bought the first model during there senior year of HS, on the title it is a 1964-1/2 mustang fastback, It had the 289 hi-po..aka high output (acronym)..yeah they got the fastest one they could! (later in life owning the 2 largest junkyards in Detroit between them they obviously took immuclate care of it ...what a car! black exterior with a super small silver pinstripe on the side, and white leather interior! It got half burned in a garage fire but thankfully it was only paint and chrome damage, and it is in fully restored condition as of rn, My parents used to lay the back seat down and cruise Gratiot from Mt. Clemens to downtown Detroit and back on Saturday nights in the early 90's and I would look through that giant fastback window at the stars...best memories of my life! ty for bringing me back to that!!!!!!!!!

Man thats crazy what a pair of shiny valve cover could do... lol this was a good revive... ive learned a bunch of you guys channels... keep em coming

Mustang v8 crackling and a storm rolling in, awesome guys. In the back of my head I hear derek shouting "bring the thunder!" and there it was, must be the car gods smiling on ya'll.

Dude looks so happy to have his stang running. That's some wholesome content right there.

“Hopefully this thing only catches on expired fire” 😂 that needs to be on a shirt

My favorite universe "the Junkyard Digs extended universe

My 289 sat up for 17 years but it roared to life with a little help. I love documenting these revivals here on youtube!

There is something so calming about that guys accent and demeanor

Id love to know ikes story. His collection and his knowledge reminds me of some old guys I know, but hes not old. Love the way he's got unreal amounts of stuff and knows exactly what he has and where it is, meanwhile I cant find a part I bought last week in my one car garage

Ike was very humble in this episode. Im impressed by that. Jyd impresses me for the fact that he always talks forward and positive never backwards and negative. That's how you make this old junk run again!

That mustang is My absolute dream car...favorite year and everything. Love it. My daughter and I would love to come pick up one of those “junkers” getting in his way up there in that barn and bring it back to Ga for him lol. Everyone has to love a barn with random carbs and fun goodies laying around.

Hand down the best collab revival video ever. Well done guys! ⚡👌

This video brings back so many memories! Back in 2004-5 I completely rebuilt a 67 mustang convertible from stem to stern! Pulled the 1968 302 and rebuilt it with high perf parts, street cam, 87 heads, 4bbl, long tube headers, T5-wc 5 spd trans, center force clutch, complete new suspension and springs, sway bars, power disc brake conversion...3.55 rear end... lots of work but lots of fun doing it!

You got a mustang revival, Vice Grip Garage has a blazer revival. Tons of quality content tonight

Ike can say he has a “super charger” under the hood with that belt lmao

I have a 66 Coupe with a 289. Im running a 231@.050 Speed Pro cam (pretty big for that engine), 4 speed, factory heads with 3 angle valve job and bigger springs and the car is a blast! You can see/hear it on my channel. Something else you guys may want to do (so worth it), locker. I have an Eaton in my 66, I just put a Spartan lunchbox style locker in a 70 Cougar...not very hard to do...and the fun factor once it is done is through the roof! Be excellent!

huge cars and cameras fan, ive recently become a fan of junkyard digs

sees ike and john in thumbnail channel JYD Me: visible confusion.

"Hopefully this thing only catches on expired fire"

what a great revive video. definetly car video of the month on u tube hands down.lightning, pouring rain, sweet mustang this video had it all.

Idk why, but I like watching the older videos while waiting for new ones 🤷‍♂️ This mustang is one of my dream cars!

When is vicegripgarage stopping in to work on that Chevelle?

At 5 minutes in I'm saying " Don't hit the Dart".

They brought it back to life! Thanks again Ike and Junkyard Digs!👍🏼👍🏼

Hell yeah! Love seeing old mustangs like this brought back to life! So sick.

there is a difference in ford starters on ford/Lincoln starters there is a additional spacer on the end of the shaft between the Bendix drive and the hogs nose bushing. I know this for a fact because when I hand a starter put in my 87 Lincoln. The shop went threw 6 starters before we saw the difference. From dealing with Mercury/Lincoln line of the ford line. I have found the 5 liter (302) made in Canada need this spacer about 5/16 of a inch to work properly. The second I heard the noise and the Bendix not disengaging. I knew the trouble was. On the backing plate use some flat washers to move the starter back 1/8 of an inch. you may have to do some custom work on the washers to get them to fit right.

Love seeing all these car guys and channels coming together, well done Digs way to help this community grow...

Yup definitaly offroaded my way into a North Carolina ditch before. Thanks Sgt Bouchard you will always be one of the coolest dudes ever

I’m 19 in Southern California building a Mopar Lowrider. A 1968 Chrysler New Yorker (2 Door) that hasn’t ran since 1980! Currently trying to un-seize my motor. It sat in the desert all those years. Looking forward to cruising it on some 14” cragars!

Kevin, Welcome to NC. Go get the Mook and come back. There are lots of old cars here and we can add some rust if you get homesick. Go see Jonathan W the next time you are in the state, he is a couple of hours south of John's. I had watched a few of your videos prior to you getting mixed up with these guys. I have since watched many. I enjoy your work and your attitude. If your Mom didn't think you talked funny when you got home, you didn't stay here long enough.

I love those 65 mustang fast backs such sweet body lines on that car

302 will have a larger harmonic balancer, cast iron water pump of that vintage. Early 289's (up to 65) had aluminum water pumps. Also, 289 heads will work on a 302, 260 or 351w. Lastly, check the bolt pattern on the bellhousing early 289's will be 5 bolt and later 66 up will be 6 bolt. Starters can be either 3 and 4 speed manual trans vs auto trans. Also ford went to rail style rockers in 66 vs non rail in 65. Good job keep up the work.... Next time pour trans fluid in the oil. and run it till hot the trans fluid will remove gunk...

My '65 T-code fastback sat in a barn in Wisconsin from 1972-2009. I didn't own it then but the guy who did said the 200 6-banger started right up and ran fine with a fresh battery and some fuel direct into the carb. Putting a fresh 302 in it right now. Gonna be great!

Cars and cameras and junkyard digs made my day for sure

Awesome video. It's great to see you guys working together. I just started watching those guys three days ago, so when I saw this video pop up I was like no way. Good job that's a beautiful Mustang.

I know where I want to spend the next lock down. I could spend months just wrenching and getting things running. That would be a true dream come true.

Man that thing sounds awesome! Glad you guys were able to get it running again.

I hope to see more of these two channels doing projects!

You should take the sound of that Mustang revving and use it in your video intro going forwards. Sick sounds! 😈

probably my favorite junkyard revival ive seen loved the crossover!!!

EXPERTLY filmed and edited. This was such a pleasure to view. Thank you!

you think that's impressive? I once started a car that had been sitting for almost 3 hours

Isaac showed that Mustang briefly during a live stream a while back. it's hard to believe it only needed a couple days work to get that beaut running.

WOW! What a beautiful car!! And sounds awesome. Definitely keep it 289, mild rebuild. Beauty!

Beautiful car and good to see it alive again! Thanks for sharing👍

Awesome video here, so enjoyable to watch. Been subbed to C&C for a while now and after watching your latest video with Mook, I thought I’d explore your channel more. Watched this episode and slapped that subscribe button as soon as I finished. That Mustang sounds so damn good. Congrats on reviving that beast. Hope you do more collaborations together.

This has been the apex of my week. Kevin Ike and John. Y’all ROCK

Sweet job . The pony came to life and becomes a stallion.👍✌🏻

Love to see some 289 action, boys! I’m a huge fan of both channels and just recently found out y’all collab fairly often 😂 I’m loving this video, especially because I just got my first car, and it’s a 1964 Ford Galaxie with the original 289 engine and it still runs smooth as butter! Well, at least for now, gotta install some hellishly confusing brake and fuel lines soon… Thanks for all the inspiration and info you provide in these videos, keep on keepin’ on! Cheers, guys! 🤙 :)

They definitely have better cars then we do in IOWA that's for sure pretty awesome you guys know each other and I didn't even know you guys knew each other your universal collabs are awesome!!

I love what y’all do. I would like to see that camaro in the shed come back to life . I am a huge camaro guy

Love the flash of lightning at 46:41 Excellent Mustang, I too have a fondness for the orange with black accent colour scheme. The snarl of a Windsor small-block is music for the soul. Keep up the good work! (and having fun too ;) )

That's a thing of beauty right there, boys. As a fellow southern by the grace of God type, I can appreciate that the woods of the Carolinas are probably not like others, lol. Born, raised, and still live on the Cumberland Plateau of Middle TN.

When I bought my 96 chevy k1500 back to life after sitting 3 years. 3 months later it pulled a stud out on number 3 and number 4. I had never seen it either and the valves weren't stuck. I hammeredcthem back in bigcthey pulled back out again so I replaced them. Only issue I have now is I think I slightly over adjusted one of them cuz i get an occasional pop through the exhaust pretty rarely. Plugs still look good though so idk. I gotta put a new intake kn it soon so I'll pull the valve covers and readjust again.

Just finished watching vice grips garage. More revivals 🤘🤘

You know what I like about this video and you? You've promoted a few other channels in this video and that's awesome. KZfaqrs don't seem to do that very much.

Fellas, this brings back the good ol days... Good video with great content... That old building is a goldmine👍

How cool is it that you got to go race go carts and do revivals with 1999 Fred Durst??

I just pulled up from school and this definitely made my day. Reminds me why I drive a manual.

You can't beat the sound of those old Ford's.

What a super cool video! I dearly love Ike and John & I am very happy that they are part of your extended universe. CHEERS!

i see more junkyard digs and ike collabs in the future.

"I mean I also weigh 84 pounds" LMFAOO

Glad to see that old beauty come back to life!

Great to see you all collaborating

You should hear the starter on my car! It sounds like a six volt and it turns so slow, but it never fails to start

Hey Kevin I’m a huge fan of your KZfaq channel my great uncle has a bunch of old Ford pick up trucks that haven’t ran in years most of them are from the early 90s they’re probably going to head to the crusher one day but it would be kind of cool if you could help me get some of them running again and maybe you could take one home

that place is muscle car heaven. Even got alot of good old trucks...Thanks for the video. Even though I am watching it ten months later. Kerry

That's so simple compared to some of today's engines that for the last 45 years I've been working on.i know my way around it all. Glad to share, your Cuz.

When Cars & Cameras go north to see you I hope they drive the Mustang that would be so cool

Petition for carsandcameras to start a series where Ike try’s to revive all his cars.

For the record, Ultra Black RTV will work as a stand-alone carb gasket for a loooooong time (scrap hardwood + light coating of RTV = lifetime carb spacer). Ultra Black RTV has also entirely sealed an unrideable Yamaha xs750 with a blown-out cylinder base gasket (half-quart leak every ~10 miles) from the OUTSIDE for over 20,000 miles. Obey Permatex's curing instructions and the stuff is more bulletproof than you'd guess. I'm not suggesting this as your daily go-to fix of course, but coming from a guy who isn't afraid to... the shit works. Cool videos guys, glad to see people keeping the fire burning.

I love the way you bucks operate!!! Fun video to watch too! Glad Luke recommended your channel! Cheers from Motown.

My favorite type of car!! And it's orange like General Lee!! \m/

That dude reminds me of Steve Dulcich :D

Wow! This was really really great guys...stumbled on this...Great video editing looking forward to more..thanks

Yeah, the Ford Winsdor blocks are pretty good engines. About 4 years ago my dad and I bought a Ford Fairlane with a small block 289 in it that had been sitting since 1980 when the transmission went out and the family parked the car. Fuel filter, spark plug cables, distributor cap and cleaning the plugs was all we needed to run the car with a red jerry can straight to the carb. We didn't even have a key because the family had lost it, we hotwired it from the started solenoid, lol.

She sounds mean and pissed. Get the ol’ gal plenty of coffee.

I’ve learned more about Ickes collection from your channel then his own 😂😂🔥

I want a place like that with cars everywhere. Great video

I rescued a 66 2plus2 fastback a couple of days ago. Cant wait to get under the hood and get it back on the road. Car has been sitting 40 years. Will keep posted and videos soon.

The amount of ad breaks on this video is borderline disgusting. Other than that... awesome job! Love the C&C guys!
