#Corvette #ZR1 #ZTK GM just revealed the new 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 along with the track oriented 2025 Chevy Corvette ZR1 ZTK package. And Im not feeling it. Old man rants at Corvettes, and how US auto makers cant seem to give us what we want, and seem to have run out of ideas for cars. That’s if they can even afford to, since Stellantis had a disastrous earnings report and is rumored to ax several entire brands (Alfa Romeo, Chrysler) Are we as car guys the new gamers? Are the brands we love, Dodge, Ford, GM, doing this on purpose? Are they building cars that lack their personality, shun their heritage, ignore their history?

#Eclipse #Eclipse2024 #SolarEclipse I head out to Derby Vermont to see the Total Solar Eclipse, on Apr 8th, 2024. It was an awesome adventure, and of course, I just have to check out the local Dodge dealership, Northpoint CDJR in Derby, VT. I check out the Ram TRX, the last Supercharged Hemi versions. They have a gorgeous new one in red, and used one, both with fair prices. I also check out the brand new 2023 Dodge Durango Hellcat. Or course I spoke to the salesman, and debated buying it, since Dodge reintroduced rebates, cash back and the works. I think you can negotiate even further. But the big show is the eclipse. I am recording more in a home video style, talking about Eclipse facts, from the crescent shaped shadows, to the Moon and the shadow front, the darkness in the sky, even the temperature drop. I did my best using the eclipse glasses over the GoPro lense. I have seen three eclipses, but this one was by far the most spectacular, and most impactful on me. Its why Im chosing this moment to change the nature of this channel. It seems rather fitting. But, now, more than ever. Oil is thicker than blood!

Dodge reveals the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona two door and dour door hatch EV. Also, the 2025 Dodge Charger Sixpack is revealed, sporting the Hurricane twin turbo in-line six. So, I go into geeky levels of detail over every single detail, easter egg and secret message hidden in the video, from the Dodge brothers’ history, and how they stuck it to Henry Ford, to their influence on Oldsmobile, Cadillac, Lincoln and the entire automotive industry globally. There are some really interesting Dodge advertising slogans that appear, but you will never guess which cars are showcased in this video. Of course, I do rant on this car. The Dodge Daytona is set to replace the Charger and Challenger Hemi, from V8, superchargers and manual transmissions to EVs and one single in line six. True, all-wheel-drive is now a thing, but the question remains, which will be faster. Specs don’t always tell the entire story. So, if Tim Kiniskis sees this, I challenge you to talk to me, a true gear head, that related to John and Horace Dodge in more than one way. One thing, the Elixir joke fell flat, and misses the mark. You could have mentioned the Challenger Demon 170 running on ethanol in so many better ways. Still, the video was interesting, and had its good moments that I enjoyed. 0:00 Fratzonic Vs Hurricane 0:30 Dodge Charger 2024 Easter Eggs 0:54 Hamtramck Dodge Brothers in 1910 2:37 Design Overview of the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona 3:37 Dodge Brothers Meet Tim Kiniskis 4:40 Horace Dodge Portrayed as Gomer Pile 5:17 Tim Kiniskis and Some Terrible Acting – Carlos Tavares 7:02 History - Dodge Brothers Worked for Ford 9:15 Dodge Makes Incredible Moves and Owns Ford Motor Company 11:05 Dodge Charger Time Warp Easter Eggs – Vintage Ad Slogans 13:55 Dodge Turbo Easter Eggs and Obscure Ad Slogans 15:41 Stand Out Historic Cars from the Dodge Model 30 Touring Sedan to the Hellcat 18:14 Elixir 130 and John Dodge – Tim Kiniskis Faux-pas 19:53 Never Lift – No Prep Poser Dodge That Won’t Last 21:08 Dodge EV Cringe and Street Take Over Crowd 22:48 Dodge Does Not Understand Gear Heads 23:55 New 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Spec 24:38 Dealership Markups, Revenue Captured, Software Based Services 25:08 Horace Dodge Loved Speed Boats 27:08 Cringe Levels Critical and Corpospeak 28:10 Charger Sedan Hatch – Coupe, Widebody, Fratzonic 29:37 Dodge Brothers Last Days – Brotherhood to the End 31:07 Dodge Charger SixPack Hurricane Twin Turbo ICE 34:15 Animosity and Source Code of Cringe 35:21 Dodge Brothers – True Gear Heads That the Elites Hated 37:15 Conclusion and Bloopers Social Media Links: https://www.youtube.com/c/HeavyMetalMechanic https://www.bitchute.com/channel/duAerGAaPtcY/ https://rippers.locals.com/ https://rumble.com/riproaringgarage https://twitter.com/MechanicMetal Support the Channel!

Lets take a trip through history and watch some vintage car commercials! From the mid-sixties to 1969, with a few stops in the 80s and 2000s, to show just how much things have changed, or havent. I will watch and comment on a few of them, like the first ever Ford Mustang Commercial in 1965 at the World’s Fair in NYC, to the iconic Volcano commercial for the all new Chevy Camaro in 67. Of course, we cant forget about Dodge, the quintessential Muscle Car with the Charger R/T. Do you have a Date with Dodge Fever? Mid 60s were laid back with Ford Galaxy 500 or Chevy II aka Nova or with the no nonsense narration of Lt Col John “Shorty” Powers for the Olds Delta 88. Pontiac was breaking the mold with cars and ads with a very uncharacteristically dynamic ad for 65 with their track focused commercial! Transitioning to the late 60s is probably the most expensive of all these ads short of the Camaro ad, is the AMC Ambassador ad, with the Red Carpet Ride ad, all done with an actual unfurling red carpet! But, lets face it. 1969 is the year to beat, and Ford’s LSD fueled ad campain of “Ford gives you better ideas” is both psychotic and hilarious at the same time! Ford Torino, Ford Mustang from Grande to Mach1, LTD all seen in the “Performance Corner”, if you had a time machine! To round it all off, we compare these to the 2000s, Honda Element “I Pinch” ad, that spurred a series of Element and Friends ads, website, video game and even a Myspace page for the crab. And since this is stuck in my head, yes, the 1985 Chevy Astro commercial. Because the 80s is what happens if you take 1969 and make a decade out of it. With more neon colors.

I review one of the fakest car channels ever. Ideal Media is as fake as possible, pushing weird lies about the Dodge Challenger, specifications and costs associated with owning one of these cars. From fake history of the late 60s Muscle Cars to the infamous “Black Ghost” Challenger perpetrated by Hagerty Insurance, they cant seem to get their numbers right. On top of that, they just repeat the same old tired jokes, that just arent funny. They havent been since the Carter administration. But, what made me truly review this, is another example of a fake internet guy claiming to be a “master mechanic” that clearly has ZERO knowledge about these cars, or even general mechanic knowledge. The guy even uses a fake edited in backdrop of a garage. The truth is, that they envy us. Not for the cars, but for our camaraderie, our brotherhood, that will stand even if you take away the cars. It’s a way of life. Why?

#Tesla #GigaPress #GigaCasting What is Giga Casting? What is Giga Press 2.0? What about Giga Press 1.0 for that matter? Giga Casting, also known as Giga Press, is a technological process of high pressure die-casting aluminum, for large assemblies. The process uses heat as well as pressure. Tesla is the most notable user of this process, using Idra Giga Press machinery for current and upcoming models. Why is this relevant? GM, Toyota, VW are also investing significantly in Giga-casting. The big problem in finding out more about Giga Press is the Tesla fans. They often do not understand technology and resort to using buzz words to justify their purchases or fan-ness. Tesla is known for branding existing tech processes, and calling it innovation. The Tesla “Unboxed Process” is merely the old way of building vehicles, prior to the assembly line (which Tesla still uses). The reason Tesla is moving back to this stationary method is due to Giga Press. Giga Casting is the means by which Tesla hopes to build the as much of an entire car in one cast. The reason for this is to cut down on robot or human assembly, to cut costs and improve supply chain mechanics. I do need to cover a bit of definitions, since Tesla fans (and Elon Musk himself) conflate terms. So I do talk about body-on-frame cars, and the innovation of the FWD drive train assembly. No, sadly exoskeleton cars are just unibody cars. There are some innovations at Tesla, and that is the means by which molds are made. Sand is often used when making molds, but using a 3D printer to make such molds is novel, and clever. Obviously 3D printed molds can yield complex geometries in die-cast parts. Giga-casting has flaws though. Many flaws. The biggest is the lack of repairability. Parts cannot be replaced, since its one single component. Much like the Rivian dent scandal, where a small dent cost $55,000 to repair, Tesla will suffer even worse when it comes to replacing panels and other parts. There seems to be this conflation between innovation and “fewer parts”. More parts means cheaper repairs, easier replacement of smaller components. Another flaw is the casting itself, that will result in deformation of the end product. Casting is rather rough to begin with, but works in heavy, smaller components, such as engine blocks, differential housings, etc. Casting the whole body of the car is why Tesla’s are known for very poor body fitment and panel gaps. Ultimately, Giga Casting only benefits the manufacturer, cutting their costs, while it increases repair costs, shortens vehicle life and durability. Aluminum as it is work hardens, resulting is stress risers, cracks and fissures that can total out a car. This is why in aviation, they replace entire aircraft skins, ribs, spars regularly. This cannot be done with single pieces made with a Giga Press. Any repair in effect becomes replacing the entire car. So, get ready for disposable cars, and of course, higher insurance costs due to the increased repair costs (if repairs are even cost effective to begin with!). And even if you don’t have a car made with a Giga Press, our premiums will still go up. 0:00 Giga-Casting and Giga Press 2.0 0:59 Lack of Objectivity in Early Tech 1:33 What is Giga-Casting?

#UAW #STRIKE #Dodge #Brampton #Unifor UAW goes on strike! GM, Ford and Stellantis factories are shut down in the US, as well as Canada. Unifor (formerly CAW) is the Canadian union for auto workers at plants such as Brampton or Windsor will vote on their strike this coming Monday (Sept 18, 2023). The media is covering the strike however few if any large outlets are talking about what the UAW or Unifor’s list of demands are. So, I find their demands, and go over them. They are as outlandish as ever, from large pay increases, instant promotions, 30 hour work weeks, guaranteed jobs, pension increases, increased medical coverage, and more. Yes…I go on a rant on unions in general, not just UAW or Unifor. Both sides are delusional and out of touch. This will only hurt the workers and population at large, that depend on their vehicles. To be fair, theres a lot going on, and I would not be surprised if Brampton shuts down, the factory that built our Dodge Challengers and Charger, as Stellantis and the others are gearing towards the production of more EVs, despite how the market does not want to adopt them. CEOs are equally delusional though, as I talk about the attitude and entitlement found on both sides of labor disputes. Even 45th Pres Donald Trump commented on EVs and UAW workers (which I do in the most awful voice! I tried) Im sure this will stir up debate, which is never a bad thing.

#Hagerty #BlackghostHoax #Woke Two different stories blend into one. The 1970 Dodge Challenger Black Ghost scam, as being a legendary drag racer, as well as Hagerty going full environmental carbon credits, DEI and woke. This all began with me digging deeper as Hagerty non-renewed me and failed to pay for some minor claims as a regular insurance company. I suspect its due to the older video I made about them, and the magazine, pushing political propaganda, and nothing about collector cars. Looking through their website and searches, you notice how hard Hagerty is propping up the story of the Black Ghost. The Youtube channel Uncle Tony’s Garage goes into this way better (link in pinned comment), and I do recommend watching it in its entirety. This car can in no way be a drag racing legend. It’s a bone stock car, fully loaded (making it heavier). But looking further we find the whole MGM movie deal, how everthing about this car is a manufactured story, including the National Historic Vehicle Registry (owned by Hagerty), its showcasing in various Concours d’Elegance, Amelia Island showings (also owned by Hagerty). The sad part is that if they wanted diversity, they could have chosen Big Willie Robinson, who has a well documented history of doing good for the car community. But its about money, and making it for themselves. Hagerty is on board with carbon credits, every woke talking point, to where they exclude the largest demographic. I suspect that is what they are doing, by cancelling policies by some algo, for some client recomposition. Hagerty is now engaged in political activism, they pledge support to stakeholders, but not their customers or even share holders. What happened to this once great company? Can it be fixed? Can any of them return? If you want, listen to the video. There are some odd tells, showing there is more going on, mostly from the operator’s nervousness or silence. (I wont lie and say there are gotchas, but its still very coincidental and messed up) But at least here, oil is thicker than blood, my brothers! 0:00 Intro 1:02 Two Stories Blend Into One (Hagerty and Black Ghost) 2:04 What is non-renew for car insurance? 2:57 Hagerty Brief History 4:16 Uncle Tony’s Garage – Black Ghost Challenger Hoax? 6:11 Challenging Black Ghost Claims 8:48 Speed Boat 9:23 Black Ghost Actual History 10:42 National Historic Vehicle Registry Corruption 11:13 Big Willie Robinson 12:00 Black Ghost MGM Movie Scandal 14:18 Hagerty Diversity and Inclusion 15:37 Hagerty Enthusiast Carbon Offset Program 16:07 Hagerty Retaliated Against me for an Older Video 17:26 Who Owns Hagerty Inc.

Cant leave out the supercharged Challengers, with Hellcats, the 717HP variants, up to the Redeyes, 797HP and of course, the halo cars, the Dodge Challenger Redeye Jailbreak, the Super Stock and the 1320!

I react to a video on Urbanism. So, this is a raw reaction and solo debate based on what I hear for the first time. Already, the comments and intro give it away as making points that support their argument. The video maker wants to focus on emotional points, not rational ones. Safety gets put over freedom, to the point freedom is never mentioned once. All of his arguments are a political video at best, or “take somebody elses money and give it to me” at worst. He lives in a city and focuses only on the city. Why is it that people in the city cannot see beyond the city limits? They lack the understanding of how supply chains, agriculture, industry work. Its as if things magically teleport into their stores and they don’t ever need to move. That’s the same thing as life as a gerbil, with all it needs to live magically provided by somebody else. They don’t care, or worse, do and just want other people’s money to fund their way of life, knowing full well they cannot fund it on their own. The examples they give, of transit are straight from transit agencies press releases, where all the dangers, problems, delays are ignored. I worked in transit, and I can tell you, driving a car will always be cheaper and faster. The only way to make it cheaper is by levying taxes on cars, fuel, etc. And if all else fails, the video creator mentions force. Force auto manufacturers to comply with their will, for their visions. This is why you cant argue with an urbanist, because there is no argument, no debate. Its gimme gimme gimme, now now now. And if you don’t, force! I decided to publish this video, to showcase our opponents. This is how they view us. They see us as an infestation. We heard this language many times in history and knows how it goes. But in the end, we must win because Oil is thicker than blood!

More stories about Police impounding, seizing and just taking cars from law abiding individuals, for now other reason that as a cash grab. We start off with the story of a man with a 1965 Chevy (cudos to him for daily driving that car), who had his registered, functional car towed away by LAPD, by an officer that falsified the reports, lying that his car was missing its engine, transmission, interior, etc, when there was nothing wrong with it. I do recommend Steve Lehto’s channel, as there are so many cases, recently a Missouri city that has an insane law, seizing and towing people’s cars from their own property. Where does this end? Second case, is how Detroit took not one, but two Lamborghini’s from the same owner. No racing, no illegal activity, but it didn’t matter. They took them, with no charged brought, because the chief of Detroit PD wanted to “permanently seize” the cars to use them for whatever he wanted. As such, the cars were damaged with thousands of dollars worth of dings, dents and scratches, many miles put on the cars and so on. Most of the time, towing due to seizure or impounding doesn’t focus on not damaging the car. J-hooks, straps, chains will cause so much damage to some cars, and these are damages an owner will never recuperate from the police department. The final piece, is on Charlotte, NC with their new law against Street Takeovers. There are laws on the books already but now they will punish the innocent, and take their cars. This in effect makes any legitimate care meet, cars and coffee, etc, susceptible to impound. Even spectators (which are ill defined, if this means somebody recording or just glancing by as they walk home) liable to criminal charges. This is insane, and unjust. Call your local senators, mayors, and let them know that this will not stand. Its hard, but these types of injustices cannot stand, and unless we voice our concerns, nothing will change. Thanks for being here, during this change to the new format.

I calculate the HORSEPOWER and TORQUE for the Dodge Challenger 7th Special Edition Last Call car. I can tell you now, that I am right about these numbers, and everybody else is going on wishful thinking, and misplaced fanboy mentality. This car must be a factory Stage Kit car, with the final Stage III for the Hellcat Redeye, Jailbreak or Super Stock trims. If its not, then why would anybody give money to Direct Connection for Stage III when they would not be able to compete with the 7th Last Call Challenger? Sure, this is speculation, since Dodge isnt known for making great choices. My calculations though are sound, and while I’m not a chemical engineer, these numbers are a close approximation of the horsepower and torque ratings the 7th Last Call will have. The first teaser video for the unveiling of the Final Last Call Challenger, set for the Roadkill Nights in Las Vegas, NV was the “Runnin’ Hyde” video, showing a Leprechaun transformation. This was the easiest to solve, since it’s all but been confirmed the car will be E85 capable. The second teaser video was “Density Matters”. This is the one that everyone got wrong. Most assumed it was boost related forgetting the actual name of the video. This gives up the density of the fuel the Last Call Challenger will be able to burn, which is 7.1 lbs/gal. This is one the higher end so the blend is still unknown. Ethanol is heavier than gasoline, something hinted at by the scale tipping in favor of the E85 Leprechaun. The third video was “Scream @ 215 mph” showing the buff Leprechaun hollering into an anemometer showing the equation 105@(3.02 x 2.98)=1582. The numbers don’t refer to boost, pulley size or even intake CFM (cubic feet per minute). A scream, is an exhalation, which is what the Ghoul or Goblin is doing. This indicates the number is related to the car’s exhaust. The numbers are confirmed by existing Dodge Demon exhaust pipe dimensions, yielding the exhaust CFM. It is with well known formulas that we can extract the HP rating for the car, based off MAX exhaust CFM. The final video is “HEMI Vice” showing the Ghoul or Goblin using a jackhammer on presumably ethanol globes, with the jack hammer (powered by a Hemi) displaying 2538 psi. Again, many incorrectly assumed this was fuel injector pressure, which would place it in the Direct Injection category but Hemis are Port Injection. So the number indicates MAX cylinder pressure. We already know the Dodge Demon cylinder pressure at 1958 psi, making it relatively easy to calculate the Last Call Challenger’s torque rating. I hope you enjoyed this video. It took a lot of work, but it’s worth it. We are building a community, with plans of a car show!

I explain why auto manufacturers are going for EVs, and raise serious questions as to economic viability. This is BIG. First, I cover serialized components, the kind that are linked to a specific VIN and will not work on another car. This causes serious issues when a specific model is older and out of production. How difficult, or even possible, will it be to use salvage parts? Do you own the car if you can’t even swap out a few parts to keep it rolling? This is one of the big points Louis Rossmann champions in the Right2Repair movement. Plastics can be cheap or pleasant to the touch. Carbon fiber is now more common, and leather usage is at an all time high, but modern plastics never felt worse. Gone are the days when materials like Bakelite were used. Wheels also lost their timeless appeal. Modern wheels have weird swirls and angles that just don’t age well compared to the simple spoked design, or turbine design, or even wheel-cover esthetics. I do go on a bit of a rant with nose height on modern cars. They seem to be higher and higher, even on sports cars and muscle cars. Where are the wedge designs, the low slung noses of not that long ago? Pedals as well lack any detail, unless in older style cars, and even that as just options. Chrome trim, knurls, dots, striations in durable rubbers that can last decades. Also related to pedals is the 2-pedal vs 3-pedal debate…now unified versus the one pedal driving thing. I have no words, but still win this argument LOL. Marker lights, buzzers and chimes also have gone the cheap route, losing personality or appeal. The big talking point of the video is the EV push. One would normally start such a debate from environmental concerns, but evidence will be seen too far in the future. Instead, I discuss the economics of it, and the connections to industries based in China, and the strategies behind US automakers decisions for electrification. Without subsidies and heavy government push, EVs may not fair so well with consumers, much less the enthusiast. China boasts high production of EVs, and US automakers are caught in the middle, and have little choice but to try, in their minds, to sell this on the US market. But the big question is, who is behind this financially? Who is invested in what technology? SEC has rules for insider trading, but politicians don’t have any such oversight, any such bodies to ensure conflicts of interest don’t occur. When asked, they deflect. When accused, they retaliate. When is a question problematic? It’s when the answer is downright criminal. 0:00 Intro 0:45 Serialized components – VIN linked parts that wont work on another vehicle – Right to Repair (R2R) and ownership 1:59 Plastics – Carbon fiber, leather, Bakelite – more aviation influence 3:16 Wheel of the past look cool – simple dynamic designs 3:48 Headlight covers and concealed headlamps (1973 Continental style) 4:28 Nose height, big faces for pedestrian safety?

In this episode I go over all the types of bulbs found in the rear of my 1972 Lincoln Continental sedan. These will be the same as with the 70, 71 and 73 model years, with only the shape of the lenses being different. Inspecting lights can be tricky alone, so either get a helper or use mirrors. Check running lights, brake lights, license plate lights and side marker lights. Be careful with the old gaskets as they can be hardened, and you won’t find new ones. If you guys want, I will do an episode about the vacuum headlight switch (DS-151) or the high beam dimmer switch (DS-70), as they both are rather peculiar. More car geek stuff includes the weird types of screws you will find, and some cinematic shots of the 72! I am happy how this turned out.

Will she start? This is my 1972 LINCOLN CONTINENTAL SEDAN, dark metallic brown, with brown vinyl top and tobacco interior. It’s a 1-OF-1 CAR, only one made just like her. Lorelei (the car) is also a very well documented car, which matters if you have a large collection of cars or just one classic, we do love going back in time, looking through booklets, manuals, receipts and window stickers. I will show you all the documentation that a car can have, and then some. All these papers add significant value to a car (even more if it turns out somebody famous was the first owner or something).

Starter on the 2004 Ford Crown Victoria literally corroded to pieces, so I had to install a new one. The order was given, and the Parts Cannon was fired. Bad diagnostics at least lead to a good how-to video on replacing the Neutral Safety Switch (Transfer Case Range Position Sensor). The transfer case range selector sensor (TCRP sensor) detects the position of your shift knob, and prevents the car from starting if the car is not in neutral or park. My hunch was that the problem was along the ground side of the starter circuit (for the solenoid), along which the neutral safety switch (TCRP sensor) is located. Was this it? Did this FALLY fix the no crank condition on my car?

2004 1-of-1 Crown Vic revival starts with a tune-up. New plugs, cylinder endoscope inspection, coil inspection and trying for a start in over 8 years! I do make some terrible mistakes though, which showcase tunnel vision when it comes to car repair. Loose spark plugs, ripped vacuum lines, improperly installed ignition coils, and more. Its still a good watch, as you can see views of the modular 4.6 liter Ford V8 that you rarely see, and some interesting tips and fixes to avoid the typical Panther platform problem of throwing out spark plugs.

Its time to revive my 1-of-1 Crown Vic after sitting for almost a decade after my accident. If you have a classic or collector car, PAY ATTENTION! I will show you all the ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS that add value to a collector car. Nothing is insignificant when you keep it all safe.

Do you want a badass toolbox without spending a lot? This used Matco MB 7525 with the Work Center Hutch was in storage for years, but in this video you will get some cool ideas and inspiration to restore and deck out your tool box! Also, Im not ashamed that I like Anime, animation, and overall some silliness to counter my by the books work ethic. If you admire and respect our World War II veterans, then try looking at Anime like the Nose Art on bombers and fighters. It is the pinup of our troubled times. Olivia will give tips, point out errors, or other important information about tools, procedures and the Matco toolbox. Touch some grass? Bah.

This 1973 Lincoln Continental TownCar is the star of the RIP Roaring Garage movie. It was left to rust, buried in the mud in upstate NY. It was partially restored, then sat once again. Can a disabled mechanic get a disabled Continental up and running, polished and shiny and ready for the BIGGEST car show in the county? And in just three days? WATCH AND YOU WILL BE AMAZED!!!
