It’s been ages since I last worked on this gem, and it’s astonishing how quickly time has passed. Currently, it’s doubling as a makeshift storage shelf in my garage—quite the sight! Interestingly, its value has been appreciating with each day it remains parked. Lately, I’ve been wrapping up various home improvement projects to enhance my family’s living space, but now, it’s time to reignite my passion for working on one of my all-time favorite cars. They simply don’t craft them like this anymore.
In the past, I’ve had the pleasure of building a few Eleanors, purely as a hobby. However, the notorious Eleanor lawsuit saga forced me to pause these endeavors. Now, with those legal battles behind us, I’m thrilled to embark on creating another Eleanor, unfettered by past constraints. This build will diverge slightly from the iconic “Gone in 60 Seconds” Eleanor, ensuring it’s not only unique but also tastefully customized. I’m excited for you all to follow along on this build. Let’s make it unforgettable!

I was able to score an 11-15 cluster on eBay a while back, but miles were a bit lower than what my truck has. I been trying to find someone to adjust the cluster to match my truck miles… and what do you know ha snow released a service to adjust your cluster miles to match your truck. I sent him my cluster and in a few days Louis shipped it back. It took me forever to find a 11-16 cluster on eBay to match closest to my truck miles, this makes it much easier to find a good deal and not worry about miles on the cluster. This service is only available for 11-16 clusters

Wanted to replace the whole harness but that thing goes way too far, likely all the way to the firewall. Luckily I soldered a couple wires on the F350 and I’m old enough to put 2 same colors together ..

Time to pull the headliner out, change roof bags, then work my way down to the seat belts and the seat bag and cover. Bumper is going for paint on Monday and it will be done !!

2021 VW Tiguan 4WD 2.0T - R line Black Edition. Wife wanted something cute to replace her Prius, so we got this. She’s going to be my first customer at my outdoor shop, will be an easy fix comeback to YouTube project.
- Sadly roof bags and one seat bag popped,
- 2 seatbelts will need rebuilding,
- wire harness was cut at the rear bumper,
- need rear bumper with some hardware
- tons of engine light codes
Will need to order a few things to bust this out quick.

Looks like Ram lived up to its name by running a stop sign at 40mph, luckily I saw it coming so I floored it and I got spun out instead of getting smashed into the driver doors. Now the question is, fix it or would insurance total it? Also I was thinking to upgrade to some SUV diesel that gets 30mpg+ any suggestions? I think a 4x4 diesels SUV might be an interesting build on the channel, throw your ideas down bellow, anything 2010 or newer 4x4 or 4WD as close to 30mpg as possible cuz I don’t think there is any gas non hybrids out there that can do 30+

$1.23 per gallon, kinda makes me want to convert a Prius to CNG so it will literally take me $10 to fill up haha. So it takes about $70 to fill up to 3,000 psi, that can get me around 600 miles, even tho CNG is weaker and you have to fill up more often, still not a bad option since it burns so much cleaner and cheaper.
ABSOLUTELY !!!
Guess what mines lithium? Diesel machines, guess what makes electricity? Diesel and coal. My diesel pig is way more environmentally friendly than any EV currently. I have facts to back it up.
Throw back Thursday on my last mustang rebuild.

The shock tower is 4mm from victory, but because there is like 4-5 other layers of horizontal pull in it, it keeps coming back. Pull, hammer, pull, hammer; I will succeed !!
We all need help from God sometimes. Now more than ever. Never be ashamed to ask Him for help.
I think I found my next race car build project 🫣
Mustang Mach 1 vs Mustang Mach E … I’m still looking for the “Mustang Mach” part 🫣
