This Anniversary Edition 1978 Corvette was abandoned for what I'm told is around 20 years. It looks like someone once did a full build on it which appears to be around the last 90s. I'm going to try get this running and back on the road and attempt to drive 750 miles home.

    Who else has developed the vice grip garage language in their everyday life

    So much tenacity! 97.86593% of people would have given up on the first day! Glad to see you made it!

    Been driving my dad's 73 Riv that's been sitting in the open for the last decade. It's going great! My absolute favorite car🧡

    Derek, I’m sitting here in the hospital with my little girl and my wife after a long difficult week of you name it sicknesses. Your video brought the first smile to her face all day! Thank you for all your hard work and the time you spend away from your boys to bring us joy every week.

    This guy is actual legit cool. Hard to find nowadays. I find it interesting that he doesn't go around trying to flex on people and get attention. He saw an engine fire, ran over, put it out and left the fire extinguisher, never mentioning it again. I'll continue watching for sure. Good content.
  • New to the channel and I'm pissed off I haven't found this gem sooner! This guy is awesome from his own sort of language he speaks from his overall love for cars. Definitely one of my favorite channels
  • @popeyesworld4930
    It seems like just any car with a complete motor , he can about 95 percent of the time get it running . This guy is awesome ! He is like a shade tree mechanic with all the know how and then some ! Great mechanic and an awesome man . RESPECT Sir RESPECT !
  • I have spent more time watching this guy than crap TV the last two months. Enjoyable and sometimes educational.
  • @brucesomers7555
    I really enjoy VGG and Derek. I got my first Vette in 1986,it was a black 1980 with red leather,4-speed and a L-48. I begged my wife 'It needs a new motor, it's slow',she said 'Aren't Corvettes fast?' Me; 'Not this one'
  • @richardtabor8686
    The "reveal" of the color gets me every time. I've watched this I-can't-tell-you-how-many times. ty so much for the content.
  • @adrianryan8586
    Major respect , on dropping all, and running to that burning car, and helping that family..
  • @trcythmpsn
    A 2 hour corvette revival is what I needed after a long ass friday
  • @yeknommonkey
    This is the guy you want to roll up when you’re stuck on the side of the road.

    Yes, I'm 61 years young, drank out of plenty of hoses. We were lucky enough to have the best public water in Pennsylvania. Beaver Run Reservoir. We also were exposed to more radiation than most in my hometown of Apollo, P A. A lot of people died of cancer. I am too stubborn to get it. Irish heritage! Eddie

    Two hours of VGG and a Vette?! Oh heck yes!!!!!! Probably going to have to break this up (got more work to do) but going to relax some now with this. Thank you for all you do for us ~ Chuck.
  • @jeffreyhoman9581
    My son was playing hot wheels with me earlier today (he’s 3) and tells me: “dad can you tow me, one of my sparkalators fell out”. He loves watching your videos with me and we both appreciate your content Derek!
  • @TalkieToaster.
    2 hours of VGG is exactly what I needed today! Just in time for beer and pizza.
  • I'm not sure why this came up in my video feed, but I'm so happy it did. Dude is hilarious and he knows his stuff. Incredibly wholesome. Just a good time.
