It's interesting watching a pessimist and optimist working on cars together. You get to align with the one you'd prefer to work with.

I appreciate how they both do things that matter to the other on the downlow. I also appreciate how they don't "yell talk" and instead use normal speaking tones.

The soothing elevator jazz music as you pulled the small block out of the Nova was <b>chef's kiss</b>

I am REALLY happy that y'all chose to go with a manual transmission on this old dirty girl. I really miss banging gears.

I discovered the Hagerty channel because of these two amazing men. This show is the best thing that Hagerty offers. CSC

That engine kept going after the first rod took off. Much respect to the cross bolt mains.

Man, I just don't get burnouts. Love the build and rest of the episode, but burnout competition isn't my thing.

First let me say, that burnout was legendary.<br>The Nova is a weapon. It deserves a name.<br> It's machine spirit said, "Is that the best heart you can give me. The heart I deserve? Behold it's destruction!"

Really enjoy enjoying this video! I watched the first episode where you pulled it out of the ground. I appreciate the time taken to hide the wiring! <br>As a new car content creator (currently building a 71 GTO )I can appreciate the endless hours it takes to film and edit the work that you also spent endless hours working on! <br>Unrelated to this video, I really enjoyed the Corvette “rebuild” for the gentleman who owned it many many years. Thanks guys!
