The first video on the Pontiac Banshee Concept Replica!

My mystery auction Firebird which I've officially named the Banshee sounded pretty bad in the last video. I was able to free up the piston rings in the crate 350 engine and get it started but it sounded like it had low oil pressure. In this video, we continued working on the engine and find that it was likely misdiagnosed as having a bad engine, donated and then sold at the auction. I only paid $1,100 for this car and I was able to get it running well and driving for about $35 in parts! We take apart some of the engine, use a boroscope to investigate the cylinders and camshaft, we work on the distributor, take a look at the carburetor and overall just have a good old time working on the car in the garage. Oh and I find some really hacked up work that includes welding and the transmission. Of course, there are sound clips and a fun test drive. Enjoy and subscribe!

    I think this car or a similar one was used in the movie "Back to the Future 2" In the scene where Doc and Marty First go into Hill Valley.

    I've been trying to find a low miles 13-15 6MT Audi S4 (for a semi-reasonable price) for like 2 years. It's suuuuper tough in this market. I'm starting to consider something drastic like buying a broken one and trying to fix it myself.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Shanesperrey says:

    Crazy seeing you in the Carly ad on your video congratulations on the success

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Matthew Sullivan says:

    I used to own this car in NY. Bought it from the second owner who bought it from the builder. Was an eye catcher.! Good Luck with her. Glad it's still going.

    What's the next car you want to buy? I want a V12 AMG.
