in the future - u will be able to do some more stuff here,,,!! like pat catgirl- i mean um yeah... for now u can only see others's posts :c
Well, the past two weeks hasn't been friendly weather wise. We had severe wind that picked up dirt from the nearby fields making into a terrible dust storm, snow with an ice storm hit (which has almost melted away) to now a polar vortex making it dangerous to do anything in as this wind is dropping it down to -9 below to what it currently says.
The channel is greatly suffering from this as we don't know how long this bad weather will last. Unsure if the '55 Ford F100 will get taken apart or even getting the '66 Ford 4 door sedan cut up finally. On top of this needing to build the temporary shed that will house parts and tools to start doing body work and shaping in. We are at that part to work on vehicles after a rough 2 years but now we're held back by weather as this year and into next we're gonna try our best to build this channel up so we can aim in building our dream garage and a few storage buildings so we can work on vehicles any day of the week in whatever weather nature throws at us.
We weren't suppose to get this polar vortex but seems the jet stream said otherwise. We don't want to keep pushing out talk videos as that's all this channel as stupidly become as it gets nothing done. If the weather clears up this coming week with it not being so dangerous we'll get something pushed out for a video hopefully. YouTube Shorts are a meh right now.

For us asking to reach 3K subs is on hold until videos come back twice a week.
We've had tons of wind last week which made quite a few dust storms making it slightly hazardous outside then had a brief moment to check stuff out on a '57 Mercury that our relative has (the 4 door) to see what stuff could fit onto the '56 but in the end might go with new parts. One thing we might grab is the valve covers as Mercy Y Block valve covers are hard to come by.
Now, fast forward to Saturday of last week and into this week. We have a polar vortex slightly hitting the area along with wind so it's making it not so comfortable outside. Was going to pull Going Mary's frame back over to begin working on it in the spring but this wind isn't friendly. Hoping for it to warm up slightly so the '41 Chevy's carcass can be cut up while using the metal off of it to patch stuff on the '41 Caddy at long last.
Right now playing it by ear especially around this below zero weather brought by the wind and the tip of that cursed polar vortex or whatever it is. We'll be discussing garage and storage building plans on what we're gonna aim for in the next few years in an upcoming video so we can work on vehicles any time and every day.

Long time no chat on the Community Post!
There will not be a video on December 1st 2024 due to how this week was including the holidays getting in the way. We did record some stuff but not enough for a decent video. We are going to see about pushing out two videos per week again though with me (Aaron) talking about something for Wednesday's and whatever else for Sunday's depending on how the weather goes. We were looking around trying to gauge on what prices there are for materials to try and save up for towards a garage in the next few years though unsure how that will go as it's going to take a lot and if stuff does lower in price then it might make things easier but right now after a few other things come along our way we'll see about saving up for our dream garage. Unsure how things will be for grabbing parts so we're gonna wing it and do whatever we can to what we have currently.
Thanks for reading and take care now!

Hello everyone! Take the time in reading this as it will be a short read.
4 more weeks until things can move ahead but will be changing some stuff up so can balance everything out including the addition of the endeavors during winter though that will scale around to how bad the snow may be. Was going to be 2 weeks though we have to secure an area to store things when we take stuff apart for our endeavors. We dialed it back some from working on vehicles to focus on life right now before we restart everything plus going to get a tiny temporary storage shed/shop made so we can have our tools handy instead of packed away.
Starting in late 2024, maybe late October, the new format to present videos will finally happen as we want to get away with what we currently got going. We also agreed to one video per week from here on out as of this Community Post with YouTube Shorts still at random (even though they're scarce right now) so that way there is no severe pressure into anything nor the stress on putting multiple videos.
We thank everyone for remaining patient with us especially these past almost 2 years of trying to get things moving forward.
Fan favorites will be returning with some vehicles here and there alongside our main projects of interest.
Take care now!

Click the pictures to see them in full!
Hopefully the preview pictures will allow people to see the pictures in 1920x1080 as it did a hiccup last time.
We were both able to grab some dream vehicles today unexpectedly! I was able to grab this 1980's Jeep Grand Wagoneer Sport(?) 4x4 while Tucker was able to grab a Willy's Jeep Wagon 4x4 Diesel Series III. We know absolutely NOTHING about these sort of vehicles so it will be a learning experience! Our parents once owned a 1984 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4x4 when we were growing up but had to get rid of it due to the vehicle having severe issues and we weren't able to properly fix it as it was used to get my '59 F100 Custom Cab Shortbox for a 1999 Christmas Present. This Grand Wagoneer is suppose to have a big block in it though we'll see on what it has when our relative delivers them in the coming week or two as he's gotten busy himself lately as well with everything.
All in all, it was a good day for us! A very long and thorough video will be posted when both of these are home and when Tucker is present so we can go over both of them together!

Click the images to see them in full! If it doesn't work there will be a full on video of the car later in the year!
We haven't seen this car in over 15 years. It's a very, very, VERY rare piece of machinery that defines Canadian automotive with most of it from American Crown Victoria line. This is a 1955 Ford Crown Victoria Meteor, only 151 made in all of Canada with no others like it. It is the cousin to the American Fairlane Crown Victoria line but this isn't quite considered a Fairlane we don't think. Use to have a 292 (unsure if it was a 2 or 4 barrel) as it now has a 351 down inside of it. Automatic transmission, still drives just fine. Unsure where it originally came from as oru relative grabbed it one day about 25 or 26 years ago. He's about to restore it due to a lot of the car starting to get that severe bubble rust. 99% complete!
Shares a lot of the same stuff to that of the American Crown Victoria package except for the trim, placement of the emblems, different decals, key lock decor, Meteor stamp on the rear bumper, front grill, hood ornament, rear seat emblem and the black paint. We might be involved in it's restoration soon but won't be until next spring as along with next spring it might actually be when we help our relative transplant and start up his 427 side oiler but unsure yet as things are chaotic for him right now with plans and all that.
Makes us honored to get to know a very rare piece of road history. Someday we'll get some Canadian vehicles of our own as we both still want to grab two 1948 Mercury M1 shortbox and longbox pickup variants along with a few other Mercury pickup years.
Art on wheels.

Hello everyone, Aaron here.
I hope everyone takes the time to read this and no, it's nothing bad. I will always assure everyone that it's nothing dire nor drastic. This will be a somewhat long read.
About everything that has transpired and to what changes will be made towards this YouTube channel. For one, our Facebook page no longer exists due to it getting falsely reported. If you all remember of us yanking out the '69 Razortail Caddy, saving the remaining vehicles exactly a year ago and us crawling underneath our late father's '66 Bonneville that has aired up tires on it? Those and many more videos and links were deemed in promoting dangerous activities on Facebook. The bots, or whoever, on Facebook banned us for a month straight in not allowing anything to be posted nor send messages. Tried to appeal but they were rejected within 5 seconds of sending in the document that they have through their appeal center on Facebook. This is just for simple stuff that we got slapped for as it was almost the same kind of thing we experienced on TikTok earlier in the year of 2024. There were other things going on as well but that has been permanently handled and moved on from.
With these actions taken place we are sticking our vehicle activities to YouTube and Instagram only so you'll be seeing more pictures pop up both here on the Community Tab and Instagram.
-Things moving forward content wise.
Stuff has been chaotic with trying to keep everything in a set schedule. I do not mean to jump from this to that constantly. This is mainly due to what happens in my personal life surrounding being a caregiver so I tend to switch stuff up to what can be done. From here on out, to what I stated in previous videos, whatever is shown here on the channel in both videos and YouTube Shorts is whatever is shown to help build the channel and move things along as we are going to try and catch up with everyone else here on this platform as there are some individuals wanting to do collaborations with us but I told them we need to grow first as we're still trying to break the surface. The main goal is to get as big as possible while being ourselves in the process as now we're gonna try and get stuff better so we can actually afford our dream garage as it's getting hazardous outside to work in. Not just from the randomness of the elements but also the smoke from the wildfires makes it bad. Face masks can only go so far though when smoke gets into your eyes it's not a fun time. For this year I want to try and get our channel up to 3,000 subscribers as we've been in the 2k mark for about what, year and a half now? We need to grow.
-People want to donate? Answer is, no thank you.
Why am I including this you ask? People tend to forget that we don't want anyone's money as we are self reliant on this as we're still getting offers in people wanting to donate towards us. We can't accept that nor will we. I know people are very kind in offering this but we just can't as we're old fashioned for we'd rather do it the hard way. Don't get us wrong, we are thankful for anyone putting a thought into sending their money our way but this channel literally is our responsibility so if something happens it's on us and not you along with making sure all of you don't feel like you lost an interest in something. I know how the world works and money should be saved back especially in these odd times of 2024. If things move slower due to our low finances until stuff becomes better here on YouTube then so be it. All we ever want from all of you is subscribers that can give us likes, comments, sharing our stuff and turning on the bell notification as we want to remain fully reliant to what YouTube brings us now and in the future.
That's pretty much it. Going back to one video a week format once things are done with YouTube Shorts at random per week but right now I'm in no position to fully work on anything as I'm spending time to myself cleaning and fixing the property up to help my mental state as I've been stressed the heck out this past month in not having enough time to do everything that needs to be done. Not enough hands to help out during the week so I'm focusing on real life stuff while relying on YouTube Shorts for the time being.

So an update on what's going on and will still remain private about it.
Some stuff went on for all of us as it looked bad at first but now it has cleared up. Right now we'll be posting up Reels/YouTube Shorts while focusing on real life stuff until further notice. We hope everyone understands this and we do apologize for the text roller coasters since last night.
Least things will be taken care of so all of us can actually do stuff. It's been never ending especially for me (Aaron) since November of 2021.

I'm sorry to say everyone but there won't be a video this coming Sunday. Some things have happened and will be making changes. Usure on what will happen right now for future content.
