You ever try to get an old car or truck running for absolutely no reason at all? Yeah, we’ve all been there. You buy a truck or car that you are absolutely going to swap the engine out of and yet you just can’t help seeing if the thing will run and drive and maybe do a burnout before you yank it all apart. Sometimes this takes no time at all, and has you and your buddies laughing. Other times you find yourself asking why you can’t just walk away when it’s been 3 days at this crap. LOL
I think there were some times in this video from Tommy Lee Byrd where he absolutely questioned what the point was. After all, all three of these engines were stuck. But he’s teaching his kids not to give up. It’s a parenting moment. Yeah, that’s it! It’s all about the kids.
Video Description:
Stuck 283 small block Chevy…check.
Stuck 250 Chevy inline six….check.
Stuck 289 Studebaker…check.
Why did we take on these projects? I don’t know. But we tried to make the best of them and laugh through the pain.
