Will it RUN AND DRIVE 700 Miles Home? RUSTIEST Forgotten Firebird EVER!

Anyone else appreciate a longer video? Being stuck on highway for construction just got a lot better 👌❤

I can’t tell you how much these have inspired me, I flew across the country from indiana to Albuquerque NM to buy a square body suburban, replaced the radgeeator in the oreillys parking lot before climbing the grade out of town and drove it 1410 miles home. I would’ve never done anything like that without watching your videos. Thanks Derek!!

In a world full of negativity and allot of videos of people cursing and losing there cool working on things, I appricate the calm collected positivity God bless man.

I dont know why watching Derek throw an old battrey half way to Canada and yelling "git ouuta here" cracks me up every time. Best part of ever revival

And we can officially start the weekend.

"...ALMOST HIT CANADA...!"😅😂 I almost fell out of my chair laughing!!!😂 That was TOO GOOD!!!💜

Had almost the exact same car in high school. Same interior except vinyl seats, same interior and exterior colors, mine had a rear spoiler and front wheel flares. I really loved that car but it was gutless. I think mine was a 77 but it may have been a 78, it was a long time ago lol. When you said "the buzzer works" brought back a funny memory. I was installing a stereo or something and that buzzer was driving me batshit. I could not disconnect it so I beat it with a hammer until it died. Lo and behold about 4 weeks later that car turned into Christine as the buzzer slowly came back to life again but first a dull broken buzz then later it got back to full strength. It was haunted!

Pete from downunder. (Australia). Got a joke for you. You can use it. There was this bloke that used to climb up on all the big tractors at the field days. It wasn't enough to just sit up there. He had to fiddle and try to start the tractors. He got into a lot of trouble and was moved on. He was quite insulted and got angry and decided to not climb up on the tractors anymore. A couple of weeks later he was walking past a hotel (pub) and there had been fire in the kitchen. The fire was out but the Hotel was full of smoke. The chap says don't worry, I got this. He walked in, took a deep breath, walked back out and expired his breath. He did that twice more and the rooms were smoke free. The publican was very appreciative but also curious. He asked the bloke how did he do that and clear all the smoke. The bloke then told him he was "an ex tractor fan". This reminds me of when you open a moldy vehicle. Love your show by the way.

That rustproofing sticker on the window, sure did a great job!

hands down the best car rescue channel ever. the guy goes through the process of getting it up and running, then drives the car all the way home. the guy is funny, and never cusses on his videos. English is my second language but still find it really funny when he says "fuel make it happener" or "i'll be dipped", or even "sparkulator", i don't know if that's the way it is spelled, but anyways, i love your videos Derek. Greetings from Brazil.

I understand this is Rusted out beyond repair but there is an extensive aftermarket for this car. And I know you generally don't do it but you could buy another frame for it and do a resto. And just because it's a 78 I think it would definitely be worth it. Bring that icon back to life!

I FINALLY GOT IT!!! A Derek O’Reilly’s commercial on top of a VGG video! How big of a flex is it to have an ad of yourself play over your vid? Congrats Derek, they couldn’t have picked a better spokesman!

I understand that you can't do these weekly or monthly.... But videos like this one is the reason I fell in love with you're channel. Harbor Freight tool set and watching you battle and struggle too get it running... And of course.. The many miles home. Thank you for the great content you and your family give all of us.

I can't get enough of Derek's revival videos. I especially love the ones where he has to deal with adversity on the way home.

Really appreciate the stickers in the rear window telling the world it was Dinitrol rustproofed.

I enjoy VGG videos 110.68% of the time!

This was one of your best ever - no exaggeration. The amount of work you put into one of these, the stress you’re under, and your resourcefulness - not to mention your great, fun attitude - make you such a joy to watch. Thank you so very much for doing what you do. God bless.

Derek thank you for working extremely hard, in order to provide us heathens with basically feature film length content. You're the GOAT and I hope you know you CAN take a break once in awhile. 😂 thank you Bieri family.

I just can’t believe it, well I gotta cause I’m watching it but I just can’t believe. Your episodes just get better and better. Thank you so much for the work you do. Makes every day better!

Artie here. My wife and I really appreciate your channel ( s ). Especially the family friendliness. We don't like all the foul language in so many shows so we don't watch them. She was never a car gal but watches, learns and asks me questions and that's great. She is beginning to get the " pull " of working on old cars. I have a 72 C10 that's been sitting 18 years and tore it all apart within the last year for a rebuild. Doing my own work. Not SEMA but a solid driver we can enjoy. It sat in 2 friends yards and her carport long before we were even married. ( Coming up on 6 years ). She realizes it isn't just a hunk of junk. Thank you for the encouragement and LOTS of mechanical knowledge. Not to mention the laughs. God bless
